On the afternoon of April 20 in the fourth year of the Great Song Dynasty, hundreds of large and small ships appeared on the sea in the Ongpo River on Jeju Island.

This is the sailor of the Goryeo people, because it is facing the threat of Japan and it is a peninsular country, so Goryeo attaches great importance to the sailor. In this reconquest of Tamna, they mobilized most of the forces of the naval division, and it can even be said that even fishing boats were used.

Tuo Junjing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this fleet, the pressure on the Governor's Mansion was great, and the pressure on his side was not small, after all, he only brought two thousand people, and it was not easy to occupy a stronghold.

Especially a few days ago, the natives came, and the Song people on the other side of the Five Kingdoms City came to reinforce the army, although the number was not large, but a piece of blades and bags of grain were transported down, and there were some strange things. The natives were only allowed to carry blades, food, and strange things, but they were not even allowed to touch them.

At that time, Tuo Junjing was a little panicked, for fear that the Song people would immediately attack after receiving reinforcements, and at the same time, he was also a little suspicious that these so-called Song "bandits" really offended the Great Song Dynasty and had nowhere to stand, or the guys released by the Great Song Dynasty.

But fortunately, although the Song people came to reinforce, there was still no major movement, if there was, it was about twenty miles away from the Wengpu River, occupying the mountain pass called Yayue Mountain by the natives, and setting up a camp.

When he saw Li Ziqian landing on the small boat, Tuo Junjing was taken aback: "Jungong, why did you come in person?" ”

This county prince Li Ziqian was a relative of the king of Goryeo, and he was powerful in the imperial court, and he was also the object of Tuo Junjing's refuge.

Li Ziqian said with a smile: "The matter of Tamna is very important, and it is related to the country, so I can't help but come...... Junjing, what's going on? ”

Tuo Junjing's mind turned, and he guessed the reason for his come.

Over the years, in order to compete for the land of the Jurchens, Goryeo and the Jurchens have fought many battles, and they have lost more than they won. Li Ziqian was ruling as a relative, and he urgently needed a victory to consolidate his position, but he couldn't beat the Jurchens and didn't dare to fight the Liao State, so the group of Song thieves who seized Tamluo became the object of Liwei.

"The Song thieves have reinforcements, but there are not many of them, they are twenty miles away from the Wengpu River, and they seem to be preparing to fight me in a decisive battle around here."

"A few thousand people, a decisive battle with my 100,000 army?" Li Ziqian laughed a few times when he heard this.

"I think it's ridiculous to be lowly, but the lowly position now has insufficient troops in his hands, and the natives are unreliable, so he is afraid to retreat from the enemy."

"No need, a quick battle, we don't have time to waste more here, since they are going to fight a decisive battle, then a decisive battle!" Li Ziqian said quite arrogantly.

Tuo Junjing didn't have this idea in his heart, he said carefully: "The Song people are bandits, they have neither foreign aid nor supplies, it is better to cut off their ships on the trapped island, and it only takes two or three months to starve them to death, and the county uncle can get all the credit." ”

Li Ziqian smiled silently: "General Tuo has experienced a defeat, and it seems that he is afraid of this group of Song people." ”

Tuo Junjing was embarrassed and wanted to refute, but he didn't dare. He can recover, it is completely dependent on Li Ziqian, if there is a real quarrel, maybe Li Ziqian will make a crime against him.

Li Ziqian didn't care about him at all, and said to himself: "You just have to rest assured, our army has 150,000, although it is just a claim, how can I be careless?" When I came, I also transferred 20,000 elite soldiers from the northwest, so that our army has as many as 70,000 capable soldiers...... General Tuo, since you are the vanguard, I will give you 5,000 men and horses, and you will frustrate the spirit of the Song people and send troops to Yayue Mountain! ”

Yayue Mountain, Zhou Quan came down from the mountain, beside him, Lin Lingsu's face was worried.

Originally, he was just in Haizhou to observe the stars and measure the position, but he was moved by Zhou Quan to go to Jeju to preach, but what he didn't expect was that as soon as he came, he was involved in the war.

They just looked down condescendingly, looking into the distance, and saw the sailing ships of the Goryeo people like clouds, densely covered with the Wengpu River.

It's just more than 20 miles, the weather is fine, standing on a high place and looking at it, the situation of the Wengpu River is almost in full view. Although there were no people in sight, the sails could be seen clearly.

"The enemy is outnumbered, why don't you ask the imperial court to send reinforcements?" Lin Lingsu asked.

"Don't worry, what do you think of this mountain, on this mountain, build a temple for the Taoist leader, for the beginning of the mission, called Baiyun Temple?" Zhou Quan still had the leisure to discuss the name of the Taoist temple with him.

Lin Lingsu glanced at him, and really couldn't understand this young man. He prides himself on being bold, but this young man is bolder than he is.

"I've heard that the Taoist chief has a medical skill?" Zhou Quan said: "If there is a battle, it is inevitable that there will be casualties, and the injured will have to ask the Taoist chief to bother a lot." ”

"This is the duty of the poor."

Zhou Quan smiled, this was just an alternative for him, since he knew that there might be a war here in Jeju, how could he not prepare?

In fact, two years ago, he intended to fund Yang Jie, asking him to select some people with a certain medical foundation as disciples, and these people naturally signed a contract with Zhou Quan, with a total of twenty people - Yang Jieshan Internal Medicine, and also has research on anatomy and surgery, which is exactly what Zhou Quan needs. And Yang Jie is nominally Zhou Quan's teacher, so the relationship between the two sides is quite close.

Half of these twenty people have now come to Jeju with the Blue Bird, and at the same time, there are also physician apprentices recruited by Zhou Quan in Bianjing, there are more than 50 people, plus the Taoist priests brought by Lin Lingsu, Zhou Quan can organize a medical team of more than 80 people.

Although he is not skilled in medical skills, at least he will not even know how to stop bleeding when the war starts.

Lin Lingsu saw that Zhou Quan was always calm, without any pretense, and his heart was also calm, looking at the places under the mountain, he pointed to one of them and said: "I have seen this thing on the ship, but I don't know what it is for. ”

"It's quite similar to the Taoist supernatural powers." Zhou Quan is meaningful.

It was four carts, pulling ordnance that Lin Lingsu had never seen before, and dragging it up a gentle slope. Further along the gentle slope, there is the battlefield that Zhou Quan prescribed, it was early summer, and this plain by the sea was overgrown with weeds and unknown small flowers, which looked very cute.

But Lin Lingsu knew that in a few days, this place would be anointed with blood.

At that moment he saw a large group of cavalry, singing songs he did not understand, whizzing past the other side of the gentle slope.

That is the Khitan people, Lin Lingsu has heard the rumors of Zhou Quan and the princess of Liao, but he never thought that in this far away from the mainland, the Song people and the Khitan people joined forces, and Zhou Quan actually borrowed more than a thousand elites from the princess of Liao!

It's just that, seeing that the war is imminent, Zhou Quan transferred these Khitans away from him, is he really so confident?

"Zhou Zhizhi, I have also inquired, the strength of the natives is not very strong, so let the Khitans deal with them, I'm afraid it's a bit overkill, right?" Lin Lingsu couldn't help but ask again.

Zhou Quan said with a smile: "It's indeed a bit overkill, but there are more than 20,000 natives, and now they are also driving towards Yayue Mountain, if they don't send people to deter, they will directly threaten the flank of our army." Although they are not strong in combat, they can't always let flies fly in their ears when it is critical. ”

Lin Ling knew that he had other plans, shook his head, and finally felt that he still didn't care about military strategy, just watched from the sidelines.

Merely...... I hope that if there is anything wrong in this battle, it will not implicate me.

After sending this person away, Wu Yang, who was following Zhou Quan, said in a deep voice: "Da Lang, this person is not our person, let them know about Jeju, what should they do if they talk nonsense after returning to Beijing?" ”

"It doesn't matter, even if they talk nonsense, someone has to dare to say it in front of the official. Seeing that after Li Bangyan and Zhu Mian were gone, there were still people who dared to talk nonsense in front of the officials, then I really admired his courage. ”

Zhou Quan's words made Wu Yang's hanging heart relax.

Hearing this, there are also Bai Xianfeng and Dong Changqing.

The two glanced at each other, Zhou Quan's Donghai Chamber of Commerce actually included Cai Jing and He Zhizhong, so these people all knew about Jeju. But out of selfish interests, they took a tacit attitude towards this, anyway, as long as they didn't go back to the Great Song Dynasty to toss, it didn't matter how Zhou Quan wanted to play.

Therefore, the only thing to hide in the whole world is Zhao Ji.

"Mr. Bai, Mr. Dong, before the main force of Goryeo came to the future, I was not in a hurry to fight with it, but now that the main force of the enemy has landed, I am in a hurry to fight with it, do you know why?" At this time, I heard Zhou Quan ask.

They knew that this was Zhou Quan examining them.

If you were on the mainland, you would be a little unhappy when you were admitted to school by such a young man who was less than 20 years old. But here, seeing Zhou Quan's overseas career with their own eyes, the two have been convinced.

"We came to Jeju to seek wealth, if we can't defeat the main force of Goryeo in one fell swoop and make it fearful, the war will last, he can **** more troops, but we can't...... So it's going to be a decisive battle? Dong Changqing replied from a strategic point of view.

"As Brother Bai said, in addition, I have also calculated, we are not much grain and grass, the local people have experienced several looting, and they are no longer able to support it, if they transport grain from the Great Song Dynasty, the cost will be heavy, only a quick battle, because the grain is against the enemy, it is the best strategy for the art of war!"

Zhou Quan said with a smile: "The two gentlemen really have a talent for military strategy......

He was really happy in his heart, but he didn't expect that the two old literati who had taken refuge in him were really talented. Although it is still mostly on paper, it may come in handy with a little experience. He was about to continue to praise a few words, but he saw several horses galloping over, and then he saw Ye Chu and Li Bao.

With excitement on his face, Ye Chu drove his horse to Zhou Quan, and then dismounted and saluted: "Dalang, the Koreans have moved!" ”

"Oh, are you on our way?" Zhou Quan couldn't care about Bai and Dong, and asked with a squint of his eyes.

"Five thousand people, coming to Yayue Mountain, the leader of the troops is none other than Tuo Junjing, the general of the defeated army last time!" Speaking of this, Ye Chu glanced at Li Bao: "We took over with the Korean scouts, killed four people, fled back two, and captured three!" ”

"Take the captives away and give them to Qi Nian, so that he can ask for a good life." Zhou Quan said happily: "You have worked hard...... Can my uncles listen to it? (To be continued.) )
