Volume 7 "The Comeback" Chapter 223: A Game (Unable to Ask for a Monthly Pass)
The Fuyu envoys stayed in Shaolengling for almost three days, and because Meng Zhao received Lin Bin's instructions, they would always send people to take the members of the Fuyu envoys to watch the Black Flag Army drill the military formation, and sometimes let the Fuyu people watch the Black Flag Army's siege weapons, such as catapults, bed crossbows and other large equipment.

Meng Zhao actually didn't understand why Lin Bin wanted to let those savages see well-known weapons, in his impression, Xianqin was very concerned about the secrecy of the equipment, and never showed it off to anyone, it was precisely because of the strict secrecy that it had a surprise effect when attacking the Six Kingdoms. In his mind, letting the rest of the people see those siege equipment means that all the countries of Liaodi know about it, and the countries of Liaodi will definitely think hard about what to do to reduce the threat of siege equipment to the city defense for a period of time in the future, and make city defense measures accordingly, isn't this asking for trouble?
Sometimes the general's idea will always be fixed and limited to a range, it is precisely because of this that the military general is just a general, if you think about it from a different angle, the vision will definitely be much broader.
The manufacturing technology of the Fuyu people is too backward, and they only have one feeling when they see the siege equipment, and that is shock! Counterfeit? Unless the rest of the people can steal a few samples from the Black Flag Army, there is no way to talk about imitation, after all, any imitation is based on the corresponding talent. Learn to imitate at a glance? Not...... It seems that the story that only appears in some legend.
The country with siege equipment manufacturing technology in Liao is Wei Korea, after all, Wei Korea is the aristocracy of the former Yan State, and most of the current versions of siege equipment were studied in the Spring and Autumn Wars. It can be said that some of the siege equipment abandoned by the Han State is still retained by Wei's Joseon. This is also a part of the technological industry of the Chinese civilization.
In three days, these husbands and men can be said to have opened their eyes and truly realized what it means to be a division of a hundred battles, which of course also caused a kind of shock and fear to the husbands and people. If intelligence wasn't negative, they should have understood what the consequences would be if such a powerful force suddenly joined Liaodi.
"The Han Department is too powerful, and their arrival will set off a bloody storm in Liaodi."
Gu Yan's worries are not unreasonable, what he sees is a very aggressive army, and the topic of the soldiers in it is always to kill a few more enemy soldiers and be knighted, and the nature of an army can be seen from the soldiers, with these soldiers who are always looking forward to the arrival of war. One can imagine what kind of person the supreme commander of such an army should be.
To be honest, the husband and the rest of the people know too little about Lin Bin, otherwise Gu Yan would not have come out with a sentence of admiration for more than ten years when he was patting on the back. Not only does Fuyu know little about Lin Bin. Even the Wuhuan people, who regard the Han as their mortal enemies, do not know much about Lin Bin, and all the impressions are based on the conquest of the grassland led by Lin Bin, and they do not know anything about Lin Bin himself.
"The general who commands this army (Meng Zhao) is a greedy man, maybe we should start with him?"
The so-called attack is to probe the wind from Meng Zhao. For example, Lin Bin's personality, preferences, and so on. Gu Yan believes in an ancient Chinese saying: 'Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles'. Knowing more will always identify that person's weaknesses and thus come up with the means to do so.
Gu Yan's concept is absolutely correct, he used the limited time to continue to contact with Meng Zhao, and after paying a little price, he successively found some words from Meng Zhao, such as Lin Bin's coming to Liaodi to continue the unfinished business last time and erase the Wuhuan nation. Gu Yan was cold after hearing this, he didn't really understand the meaning of the word 'erase', but he still guessed that Lin Bin came to Liaodi to carry out a war of extermination!
What is the concept of a war of extermination? There have been quite a few wars in history. But there are not many wars of extermination, and every time a war of extermination is provoked. The war is absolutely unprecedentedly cruel, and it is trivial to describe it as a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, which war is not a large number of dead people? The so-called war of extermination is to completely erase the traces of a race, as if this race had never existed.
When Gu Yan knew that there were 300,000 troops like the Black Flag Army, and that there were at least 50,000 of them that were more elite than the Black Flag Army, his face turned pale, and he trembled and asked, "General Meng, after the nobles destroyed Wuhuan...... Will it continue eastward? β
Meng Zhao frowned, showed a displeased expression, stared at Gu Yan for a long time, and finally said in a nonchalant tone: "Follow the will of my king." β
Saying it is equivalent to not saying it, which makes Gu Yu feel even more frightened, and he has to think about what kind of situation his husband will be in after Wuhuan is destroyed. Gu Wei felt that this time the envoy was not in vain, he realized the essence of the emerging and rising force, that is, to conquer endlessly, he was thinking, Fuyu's biggest enemy at present may no longer be Wuhuan, but this suddenly emerged Han nationality, should immediately go back to the king (Fuyu Wang Xie Lou) to advise Lou to make peace with Wuhuan, and unite all the forces in Liao to fight against the beast that suddenly pounced.
Meng Zhao seemed to guess what Gu Yan was thinking, and once again he said in a nonchalant tone: "My king will never spare any enemy, but he will not attack a country that can be a friend without reason. β
Gu Yan regarded Meng Zhao's words as a threat, and it was a naked threat, and he watched Meng Zhao wait for the following.
"The king of Korea, Weimeng, is originally my Chinese lineage, and he is of the same clan as my king."
Gu Yan was obviously stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?" β
"Now that our king has sent an envoy to North Korea, he wants to divide the territory with Wei Meng equally, and it is not difficult for you to guess whether Wei Meng will be tempted."
After Meng Zhao finished speaking, he walked straight forward, he actually didn't understand what Lin Bin wanted to do at all. What Meng Zhao was most puzzled about was why he wanted to reveal his intentions to Fuyu, thinking that this was simply creating an opportunity for Fuyu to unite with the traditional forces of Liaodi, which was tantamount to finding enemies for himself and increasing the difficulty of conquering Liaodi.
is still the same sentence: a military general is just a military general, and he cannot stand at a sufficient height to think about the overall situation.
On the fourth day after the Fuyu envoys arrived at Shaolengling, the Black Flag Army rangers captured three people who tried to escape back to Fuyu by taking advantage of the darkness of the night, and found a letter from each of them. Fu Yu did not have his own writing. The font on the letter turned out to be a small seal that had been abandoned.
Of course, Meng Zhao recognized the small seal script, and Gu Yan persuaded his husband Yu Wang Xie Lou to stop fighting with Wuhuan in his letter, and showed the ambitions of the 'Han people' to Liao. It is strongly recommended to unite the countries against the 'Han Chinese' and Wei Korea. After reading it, he understood Lin Bin's intention in making this series of actions, which was clearly to drive a wedge between Wei's Korea and the countries of Liaodi, so that the countries would point the finger at Wei's North Korea, which was united with 'outsiders'.
"Is this a long-range close attack?"
Not only was Meng Zhao puzzled, but even Lu Yan was at a loss for Lin Bin's series of actions. In order to show that the mean, these two people have not been too prominent, they are not at each other on the surface, but after being annexed by Lin Bin, they slowly hugged each other, and often exchanged letters in private. There has been an exchange of views. Maybe Meng Zhao and Lu Yan didn't know a fact, the letters they exchanged would be copied and sent to Lin Bin's desk.
Lu Yan felt that the strategy executed by Lin Bin was definitely not as simple as a simple long-distance and close attack, and the whole plan was more like creating an atmosphere. Divide the traditional forces of Liaodi, and make the various forces of Liaodi suspicious of each other.
This time, LΓΌ Yan mentioned a key point in his letter to Meng Zhao, saying that Lin Bin had issued a military order, ordering him to lead the tiger army to approach the line of the Xiliao River. However, they were strictly ordered not to attack. It only needs to make a gesture of imminent attack and squeeze the Wuhuan people in the area of the Yuma River. Lu Yan didn't understand what the purpose of this was, so he wrote to Meng Zhao for advice.
Meng Zhao didn't guess it through, and he didn't plan to guess, but chose to follow the order to prepare for the winter. On the other hand, Meng Zhao did not let Gu Yu notice the capture of the people he sent out, and he entertained Gu Wei and his party for five days and received a military order from Lin Bin to select a cavalry to escort the Fuyu envoy group to 'Xilin (Bahrain Right Banner of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region)'.
Meanwhile. The envoy group with the Bank of China as the chief envoy and Yan Ge as the deputy envoy arrived at the border of Wei's Korea after a four-day journey, and the envoy group protected by 2,000 Shence troops encountered the border guards of Wei's Korea. As soon as the two sides came into contact, the Bank of China made it clear what it meant.
The frontier general Wei Du did not dare to slack off, and immediately sent people to report urgently to the national capital of Wei Joseon (Wang Jiancheng), but within two days, Wei Meng, the king of Wei Joseon, who was far away in Wang Jiancheng, immediately reacted and sent his son Wei Zuoqu (the youngest son) to greet him and welcome him with a very grand courtesy.
Having succeeded to the throne from Weman in 161 BC and having reigned for 21 years, Wemont was in the prime of his life and eager to do something. This time Lin Bin's entry into Liaodi is a crisis in Weimeng's view, but it is also a rare opportunity, when he learned that Lin Bin entered Liaodi, Weimeng has already made a decision, if Lin Bin enters Liaodi when he sends not troops but envoys, Weimeng will regard Lin Bin as a 'friend' who can temporarily partner and play a dangerous game together.
Now that Wei Meng learned that it was not the army but the envoys, he knew that the game had begun, and although this game was dangerous, it was also an opportunity for Wei Joseon to annex the entire Liaodi, and the difference was how the people who played the game should go to the game. Wei Meng is confident that he can play this dangerous game well, he has an absolute advantage, because he is familiar with Liaodi and knows more about the strength of various forces, and can reduce the probability of making mistakes, and making fewer mistakes than his opponent is the basis for winning the game.
Wei's Korea is now very strong, there are always 350,000 armored soldiers in the country, but because of the threat of the Han State in the south, Wei's Korea has not been able to use force against other forces in Liaodi, since Wei Manchu was in power, Wei's Korea has always had a goal, that is, to annex Liaodi, integrate the forces of Liaodi to counterattack the Central Plains.
Wei Meng has always been concerned about the Han Kingdom, so Wei Meng knows much more about Lin Bin than other forces in Liao, and he has sent people out to contact Lin Bin before, but unfortunately he has not been able to get a response every time. When Wei Meng knew that Lin Bin had turned eastward, he knew that his opportunity had come, and if he did well, Wei Joseon could reach an agreement with Lin Bin and use Lin Bin to block the threat of the Han State to the south.
The idea is always very good, but the process of implementation is not so easy, of course, Wei Meng will not be naΓ―ve to think that things will develop in the direction he said he expected, he knows very well why Lin Bin came to Liaodi, it was forced by the Han State, since both sides have a common enemy, then there are common interests, everything only depends on the contact in the game process.
In Wei Meng's mind, Wei Korea and the 'Han people' have a common enemy, that is, the Han State, which has always been aggressive, and the two forces can unite to use troops against the Han State, and the difference is just an opportunity to contact each other. Now, the opportunity for contact has come, and Weimeng is quietly brewing, whether the efforts from his parents to his own generation can be completed will be judged by the competition of intelligence.
Lin Bin is moving; Weimeng of Wei's Joseon is moving; Fu Yu's solution is moving; Wuhuan's Yishan is also ......moving, from the moment Lin Bin entered Liaodi, the traditional forces of Liaodi have set their eyes on the vicinity of Rao Leshui, and the eloquent people have been reused in this situation, and various forces are connecting and looking for friends who can be trusted.
Lu Yan led the army to Xiliaohe and just ordered to garrison the camp, but the most trusted soldier took out a wooden box from his arms, which made Lu Yan a little stunned, and asked: "Who entrusted this?" β
This personal soldier named Zhang Hao had been following LΓΌ Yan for seven years, and he should have said the following with a guilty expression, but he replied calmly: "This letter is entrusted by the king, and the king said, 'Commander LΓΌ will give it to him when he arrives at the Xiliao River and orders the garrison'. β
Lu Yan's face turned pale, he knew that this personal soldier who had been with him for seven years could no longer be trusted, and his every move seemed to be completely monitored, and those little tricks between himself and Meng Zhao seemed to have no secrets to speak of. He stretched out his hand to hold the knife, his eyes fixed on Zhang Hao, but seeing that Zhang Hao was calm as usual, he asked in a suppressed manner: "...... over there in Commander Meng?" β
Zhang Hao replied: "The king has no letter to the Mongolian commander. β
Lu Yan asked again: "Aren't you afraid that Ben will kill you when he is angry?" β
Zhang Hao smiled, "Wang said that with the wisdom of a general, he will never kill the villain, not only will he not kill, but he will also keep the villain by his side as an arm." β
Lu Yan's hand holding the knife was released, he knew very well that Lin Bin was warning himself, and there was no movement from Meng Zhao, which meant "don't go too far". He sighed in his heart, opened the box and read it carefully......
"Contact with Wuhuan King Yishan?" Lu Yan was stunned: "Persuade to surrender??? β
