A smile appeared on Wang Shichong's face, he opened his eyes, sat up straight, and said with a smile: "Pharmacist, why did it take so long to get a map?" ”

Standing in front of Wang Shichong's case was a young man in his thirties, dressed in a dark green official robe, and his heroic spirit was looking at him.

The two ink-colored sword eyebrows that flew obliquely into the temples gave birth to an awe-inspiring heroic aura, and the ice-like clear eyes shot a cold sharp edge, but the light green official uniform diluted the cold and solemn atmosphere, and turned into a man's proud Qinghua.

His hair was black and thick, showing his vigorous vitality, his eyes were like stars, his lips were red and his teeth were white, and he had a mustache standing up under his lips. Wearing black yarn on his head and stepping on a pair of thick-soled official boots, he has the bearing of a big man.

The person who came was Li Jing, a member of the driving department of the military department, because he was only a school inspector, so the position was one level lower than that of the fifth grade, but it was the sixth grade, and he was wearing green clothes.

Although this Li Jing is not very old, but in the descendants of the name is very famous, his family from the Longxi Li family's Danyang house, the ancestor of the Wuhu period Li Wendu served as Xiliang (by the Tang Dynasty Li Yuan's ancestor Li Wei established the Han regime, the ruling range in the four counties of Hexi, with Dunhuang as the capital, and was later destroyed by the Xiongnu's Northern Liang) of the stability of the Taishou, after the destruction of the Xiliang Li Wendu clan fled to the Northern Wei Dynasty, since then settled in the Jingzhao Sanyuan area.

Li Jing's grandfather Li Chongyi was in the Northern Wei Dynasty and other five states to assassinate the history of Yinzhou, and was named the prince of Yongkang County, while Li Jing's father Li Quan did Zhao County Taishou in the Sui Dynasty, Linfen County Gong, plus Li Jing's uncle Li Chuanjie, who was doing the history of the Sizhou Assassin, and Li Duan, the eldest brother of the general of the Supreme Kaifu who was the official of Zizhou and the general of the Kaifu. The Danyang Li family can be described as prosperous. Although it is not as good as the national family of the pillar. But it can be regarded as a big family among the military aristocracy of Guanlong.

Li Quan's wife, that is, Li Jing's biological mother, is Han Baohu's sister, due to Li Quan's early death, so the four Li Jing brothers were raised by this strict uncle since childhood. And Li Jing, who ranked second, is the most outstanding of the brothers.

It is said that the young Li Jing practiced marksmanship with a little success, Han Baohu poured out the family heirloom marksmanship to teach, and the most popular condition for leaving the teacher was to find someone to wear two small copper rings the size of copper coins in both ears, and put a cup of copper coins on his head, requiring Li Jing to shoot in a state of horseback riding, to be able to pierce into the small copper ring, and pick off the copper coins on the top of his head.

The young Li Jing practiced hard for three months, and finally on the day he left the school, Han Baohu personally put on the copper ring. The copper coin on his head did not change his color. On the galloping horse, he stabbed Han Baohu's earrings with one shot, and when he rode back, he picked off the copper coin on Han Baohu's head with a shot, and his stable psychological quality and superb marksmanship made Han Baohu, a famous general, also greatly appreciated.

In addition, Li Jing has been familiar with military books and war strategies since he was a child, and he has memorized various military arts, and often talked about military affairs with famous generals Han Baohu, Yang Su and others, Han Baohu has publicly said many times that only Li Jing can talk about the way of Sun Wu among the younger generations, and Yang Su also said to Li Jing while caressing his couch, you will eventually occupy this position (Yang Su also said to Feng Lun).

After Li Jing reached the age of twenty, like other officials of the second generation, he entered the Daxing Palace as a guard for a few years, and became the chief of the palace, and after five years, he was recommended by Yang Su and Niu Hong, the then secretary of the ministry, and almost at the same time as Wang Shichong, he came to the driving department of the military department as a foreign officer, but because of Gao Xi, his foreign lang is still an inspector, and he has to wear green clothes to be on duty here every day, so he is often responsible for running errands and supervising the manufacture of ordnance outside.

Wang Shichong has talked about the art of war with Li Jing for more than a year, even Wang Shichong was shocked by Li Jing's power, since the crossing, the famous generals have seen a lot, but they can really talk about the art of war, and can even make technical props such as the sand table of later generations, and conduct analysis similar to war game deduction, only Li Jing alone.

Wang Shichong's biggest pleasure every day in this military department is to be able to kill a game with Li Jing on this sand table, more than a year later, the two have almost simulated battles all over the country, even Wang Shichong is about to go to Ningzhou, both of them have attacked and defended each other to kill four or five times, in general, the victory and defeat are mixed, the two are also considered chess opponents, will meet good materials, in the plain of the dignified array, head-on battle, Wang Shichong can often have a little advantage, but if it is a surprise ambush, or in the water network in the south of the Yangtze River to fight a water battle, Wang Shichong is about to fall into the wind.

Wang Shichong once asked very strangely why Li Jing was born and raised in Guanzhong, why he was so familiar with the water battles in the south of the Yangtze River, and Li Jing replied with a smile that he had been familiar with military books since he was a child, and was especially interested in large-scale water battles such as Chibi, Yiling, Sangluozhou, and Leichi Zuoli.

When he was a child, in order to verify the content of the military book, Li Jing often went to Weishui and the Yellow River to check, and when he was a little older, he traveled to the world before entering the palace on duty, and visited the front line of the Yangtze River where the Sui and Chen countries were facing each other at that time.

Wang Shichong suddenly realized, Li Jing sighed at the time, most of the military families in Guanlong are Hu people, or Hu Hua Han people, they know the customs and customs of the northern area, the mountains and rivers are dangerous, and he can't conjure up many tricks, and the people who can be familiar with the geography and human feelings of the Southern Dynasties as northerners are very rare, and only a few people, such as Yang Su, such as Wang Shiji, such as He Ruobi, such as Han Baohu, etc., are all famous generals in the Northern Dynasties, and they want to learn and surpass the objects. It is also these legendary generals who have shocked the world and left their names in history.

Li Jing looked at Wang Shichong, and spread out the scroll of maps he was holding on the table in front of Wang Shichong, it was the map of Ningzhou, Wang Shichong's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up, and exclaimed: "Pharmacist, how did you take this map, did you hear any news?" ”

Li Jing smiled slightly: "Before I went to get this map, I knew as much as you did at that time, I only heard that Ningzhou was restless, and I raised the anti-flag again, so I thought that this might be the place where I need to send troops to recruit recently, so I went to the gallery of our driving department to find this map, but on the way, I also heard that the morning court meeting has been decided, General Shi is in command of the expedition, and you are full of you, this time you have to join the army again." ”

Wang Shichong said dissatisfiedly: "Who has such a big mouth, this is a military secret of the court, and it was decided in the morning, so he is so blind everywhere, aren't you afraid to let the enemy's spies hear it?" ”

Li Jing sighed, sat on the high-backed chair that Su Xiaoci was sitting on just now, took out a folding fan from the sleeve of his robe, and began to fan himself: "Xingman, this time the plan is to openly attack the state and occupy the county, and pull up the anti-flag, and passers-by know that the imperial court will raise troops to quell the rebellion."

This morning's court meeting is just to set the scale, time, and main generals to send troops, these are not a secret among these Guan Long generals in Daxing City, before the position of the commander came out, in the past two days, several families began to trust the relationship, and went to fight.

Today's court meeting to reveal this mystery can also make everyone feel at ease, so it quickly spread throughout Shangshu Province, General Shi and the people who were ordered to pass this time are all elated, but those who didn't make it are red-eyed, for example, I, now I envy you Xingman. ”

Wang Shichong smiled: "Actually, I really don't want to go to Lingnan this time, last time I went to Lingnan, I was afraid of this kind of wild place, the miasma of the epidemic is too uncomfortable, and the hot and humid weather, as well as the vast primeval forest, when I went to Lingnan, the two battles I fought were still in the plains, this time I pacified Ningzhou with General Shi, I am afraid that it will be the same as when Zhuge Wuhou went to Nanzhong, drilling the old forest and these barbarians to hide and seek, this is really not what I want." ”

Li Jing's eyebrows moved: "The line is full, you don't have to be cheap and sell well, this time General Shi is in command, send 30,000 troops, 10,000 is the elite of the right tunwei from Guanzhong, 20,000 is the soldiers and horses requisitioned from Shu, these Shu soldiers are also familiar with the terrain there, after entering Ningzhou, there should be some small local tribes who are unwilling to rebel to send troops to help, I estimate that as long as there is no epidemic, there is no problem to defeat, you and I have talked on paper many times, and played war games."
