"General Qin, there is an opportunity to make money in front of you right now, I don't know if you want to try it!"

Liu Zhi's eyes were scorching, and his words were affirmative. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Oh? What chances? I'm certainly willing to try! ”

Qin Qiong's gaze became hot, obviously very interested in this opportunity that Liu Zhi said.

Liu Zhi stretched out his hand to the north, pointed to Baekje, and said to him: "The capital of Baekje is in Sibi, and it has been nearly eighty years since they moved their capital here, but with the rise of Silla, Baekje's influence is gradually declining, at this time their army is in the north, and the number of troops in the south is not large, General Qin can send troops to the south of Baekje, loot along the coast, and go deep into the interior within 100 miles is acceptable, but General Qin must remember to plunder more people back, food population, livestock, these are things that we are very lacking on Jeju Island, Baekje is a trading country, there are many port cities in the south, there is certainly no shortage of wealth here, and the general will also find a lot of fleets, these ships whether they are merchant ships or war ships, can be used by us, and we can't drag away can also be set on fire and burned directly, otherwise in the future, the Baekje army will cross the sea to attack us, these ships will be their vehicles! ”

Qin Qiong nodded, "I understand, but the space on Jeju Island is limited, can I support so many slaves if I take them captive?" ”

Liu Zhi shook his head and said, "General Qin, those captive people can't be regarded as slaves, otherwise our foundation on Jeju Island will be unstable, and we will lose a lot of popular support on the Baekje side, which is very unfavorable to us!" ”

Qin Qiong was a little puzzled: "Do we still have to treat them like those people in the original China?" ”

Liu Zhi nodded, and then said: "I wish General Qin a victory, I have left a future development and construction plan, and General Qin will be able to see it when he returns!" ”

Qin Qiong was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Sir, are you leaving?" ”

Liu Zhi nodded, "I wanted to stay for a few more days, but I was worried about the situation in my Langya Pavilion, so I had to go back and take a look!" ”

The Langya Pavilion he was talking about at this time was actually not the Langya Pavilion in the Central Plains, but those people on Ryukyu Island in the south, the Central Plains had fallen into a war, whether he went or not, it would not change much.

Qin Qiong was a little sad, Liu Zhi had helped them a lot during this period of time, it can be said that if it weren't for Liu Zhi's help, they might have been annihilated by Dou Jiande's army now, and when the sailor army who came to Hu'er came to Shandong before, if it weren't for Liu Zhi providing information in advance, they might have been found by the imperial court in Jiangdu, and then the 30,000 troops would have to return to Jiangdu, maybe they would have gone west to join Chen Ling's army, or they might have been sent to Luoyang to fight against the Wei army or the Tang army, these were not what they wanted, and Liu Zhi brought them out of the chaos and gave them a foothold, which was very important for their thirty or forty thousand people, Qin Qiong was even thinking about who he should consult with when Liu Zhi left in the future, when he wanted to make a decision!

Out of the initial scale of Jeju City, here is the future of the island's economic and military center, this city is based on the foundation of the previous Tamna Palace, the external expansion of the construction, the city has been basically completed, but the outside is still under intense construction, although there are more rocks on Jeju Island, but there are not too many that can be used to build the city wall, this is mainly because the rock texture here is relatively fragile.

At this time, both sides of the war will use the trebuchet this weapon, this weapon can throw hundreds of pounds of stones, its strength is very sufficient, the destructive power is great, so the city wall at this time began to become thick, for example, the city wall of Luoyang, the thickness of the city wall is measured in zhang, a city wall is several zhang thick, it is not easy to blast through such a thick city wall.

However, if multiple trebuchets are aimed at a position and bombarded, then the slightly more vulnerable position will be smashed through by stones, in the previous battle of Wang Shichong's attack on the imperial city of Luoyang, it was because he had been the garrison of Luoyang City, so he knew very well how thick the walls of the imperial city of Luoyang City were, so he did not hope to use trebuchets to smash the city wall open, because he knew that it was unlikely.

The walls of Jeju Fortress were not so thick, although the army of Baekje also had trebuchets, but this kind of thing was loaded from the land and unloaded from the ship to the shore was a very troublesome thing, in the era when there were no cranes and cranes, these tasks had to be done by manpower, and the whole trebuchet was very huge, it could not be transported and unloaded as a whole, and it had to be disassembled, so that it was easier to transport, and then assembled when they came to the shore.

Goguryeo was part of China in the Han Dynasty, and the Eastern Han Dynasty set up Lelang County on the peninsula, so they also had the technology of the Central Plains, unlike the nomads in the north, all dynasties regarded the nomads in the north as a big problem, and carefully guarded against them, not only would they not leak the military technology of the Central Plains to them, but even the substance of pig iron and salt had to be controlled, which was not like letting them sit big.

The nomads of the steppe have not mastered the very subtle technology of the Central Plains, such as compound bows, bows, armor forging, steel refining and trebuchets and other technologies, so that when they invaded the south, the weapons and equipment were much weaker than the army of the Central Plains, and the Central Plains army could use weapons to confront the cavalry of the nomads under the condition that the cavalry was not dominant, so as not to completely fall under their iron hooves.

Therefore, the ability of the steppe cavalry to attack the fortification is very poor, the Huns were still able to storm the right Beiping, but later, the cavalry on the grassland gradually lost the ability to attack the city, even in the era of Genghis Khan, the Mongolian cavalry's ability to attack the city is also very weak, of course, later they obtained a large number of Han craftsmen, to create a large number of siege equipment, these are not counted.

The state of Baekje has been a long time, more than 600 years ago, and it has begun to be established in the late Western Han Dynasty, so although their military level is not as developed as that of the Central Plains, it is still much more advanced than the nomads of the grassland, at least they still have weapons such as catapult machine crossbows.

Compared with Baekje's army, Liu Zhi was obviously more worried about their navy, Baekje's navy was very strong, mainly because they basically relied on sea to do business with Fusang in the east and the Central Plains in the west, and in the case of a powerful Goguryeo in the north, their navy was also a very important means of confrontation.

Most of Qin Qiong's army are land forces, and they are not proficient in water warfare, although under Liu Zhi's suggestion, they began to train the water army as soon as they came to Jeju Island, but compared with the Baekje water army, they are still a little worse, so Liu Zhi will advise Qin Qiong to pay attention to when leading the army to loot, the warships of the Baekje army will be brought back, and those that can't be brought back will be burned directly, because it is a cold winter and a fishing moratorium, and the activities of the Baekje water army have decreased a lot during this period, and this time to sneak attack, It is the time when it is not easy to encounter their naval army to go to sea, and it is also the time when their warships are most concentrated, the combat effectiveness of the Sui army is very strong on land, and the army of Baekje is far from being an opponent, so as long as the Sui army can be brought ashore, Liu Zhi is not worried about the rest of the battle.

At the barracks outside the city, Liu Zhi found Fang Xingtian, Liu Zhi didn't let him follow today, so he went to the army to find Luo Shixin and them to play.

Fang Xingtian is not very old this year, but his martial arts are very outstanding, and Luo Shixin in the Sui army is also famous for being able to fight, when he led the troops to attack Jindi Pass, the general of the Wagang garrison Xin Wenli went out of the city to challenge, Luo Shixin disdained the sergeant under the opponent and said: "To deal with such an unpopular general, I can control the enemy with just one move!" ”

After hearing his words, the Sui army shouted in unison, and their morale was high, and as a result, Luo Shixin went out with a gun, and sure enough, he only used one move to stab Xin Wenli under the horse, and the morale of the Sui army was greatly boosted, and under his leadership, they quickly entered the Jindi Pass, and most of the Wagang troops guarding the pass were killed and wounded, and the rest were all routed and fled.

If Zhang Xutuo had taken Luo Shixin with him when he went to meet Li Mi, maybe he would not have died in the subsequent battle, and with Luo Shixin's force, he would definitely be able to fight his way out of the chaotic army, at least with Zhang Xutuo to break through.

"Shixin, good job!"

Liu Zhi had not yet squeezed into the crowd of onlookers, and he heard Luo Cheng's voice cheering for Luo Shixin outside.

When Liu Zhi heard his words, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, Fang Xingtian must be trying something with Luo Shixin again, otherwise there would not be so many onlookers.

In the past few days, Fang Xingtian and Luo Shixin have tried a lot of events, such as weightlifting, archery, equestrianism, etc., and the two sides have won and lost each other.

On the top of the weightlifter, Luo Shixin lifted two blue-striped stone bricks for building the city in one breath, the weight of this stone brick varies, but because it is artificially polished, the average weight is about 500 catties, Luo Shixin can lift two pieces at once, which proves that he has the ability to lift at least a thousand catties.

Luo Shixin held two boulders, his face was not red and he walked around the school field, he circled down, leaving a circle of deep footprints on the ground, and the onlookers burst into enthusiastic applause, obviously applauding for his wonderful performance!

Luo Shixin walked around, put the two boulders in place, and looked at Fang Xingtian provocatively, when he looked like he was saying, it's your turn!

Fang Xingtian snorted, not afraid at all, he walked out and walked around the school grounds, as if he was looking for something.

Liu Zhi looked at him with interest, he knew Fang Xingtian's strength, his strength could carry the tripod, and his divine power was amazing, so compared to Luo Shixin, he was more optimistic about Fang Xingtian.

Fang Xingtian walked around, returned to the same place, shook his head at Luo Shixin, and there was a coaxing in the crowd, everyone thought that he had taken the initiative to give up, but he said: "No, the things here are too light, is there anything heavier!" ”

What the? It's too light!

The onlookers almost didn't drop their jaws, he didn't admit defeat, but felt that these things were too light.

Luo Shixin's expression changed, his results with Fang Xingtian at this time were one win and one loss, he lost to Fang Xingtian in archery, but he won in equestrianism, which is mainly related to his experience in the army, Luo Shixin has been in contact with war horses for a long time, and has long been accustomed to the bumps on horseback, and Fang Xingtian has been practicing in the Taoist temple with Ziyang Zhenren since he was a child, and has too many opportunities to go out, not to mention riding a horse, his equestrian skills were learned after following Liu Zhi, and he only learned for a few months, so it is not surprising that his skills are not refined, So it was inevitable that he would lose to Luo Shixin in this competition.

Therefore, the current weightlifting competition has become a key game for the two to decide the outcome of the game.

Although Luo Shixin was very easy to lift a thousand catties of heavy objects just now, he saw Fang Tianxing's strength, which was not a difficult thing for him, so he directly said that the things here were not heavy enough.

"Over there, there is a boulder there, which was originally going to be carved into a stone lion, but it hasn't had time to start construction yet, and its weight is about five thousand catties, how about it, do you two want to try it?"

Liu Zhi stood up from the crowd with a smile and looked at Luo Shixin, who looked serious, and Fang Xingtian, who was a little apprehensive.

"Five thousand pounds! Oh my god, I don't have to crush someone to death! ”

"That's right, I heard that Yuwen Chengdu had never lifted such a heavy thing in Chang'an City at that time!"

"Yes, Yuwen Chengdu is known as the second-ranked master on the Langya list, if he can't lift it, then it will be difficult for General Luo to lift it!"

The soldiers below talked a lot, most of the soldiers were not very optimistic about the two of them, not that they thought that the strength of these two people was not enough, but the boulder that Liu Zhi said was too heavy, a stone of more than 5,000 catties, when they transported it before, dozens of people worked together, used sliding wood to pad underneath, and then dragged it, and it was not directly lifted!

"Let's go, let's go!"

Luo Cheng looked like he was not afraid of big things, and led everyone around.

On the side of the road, there is a boulder, this stone looks like marble, very hard, the volume of the stone is very large, the height is more than one person high, it takes two people to hug it, a person does not say to lift it, I am afraid that it is difficult to even grasp it!

"It's too hard, this stone is too big!"

"Yes, the surface of this stone is too rough, and it is impossible for people to grasp it with their bare hands, how can I lift this!"

The soldiers began to talk about it after seeing the stone, if there were still people who doubted whether they had a chance to lift this boulder, then after seeing it, they no longer doubted it, no one in this world can lift such a big boulder, this boulder is not only 5,000 catties, it is estimated to be tens of thousands of catties!
