78. Firearms, a method of dealing with cavalry
I don't know when it started, Yue Tuo always didn't mind speculating on everyone's psychology with the most vicious thoughts, he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, because he deeply understood that this world is a world dominated by negative energy and supplemented by positive energy, and if you want to survive in this world, you must not hesitate to speculate on the vast majority of people with the most vicious thoughts, because you and the vast majority of people in this world are not related to each other.

And Yue Tuo feels that he is still very lucky at present, because he is in the army of a group of people he can trust, including Zhang Ying, Lin Chong, Yue Fei, and Zhang Shuye, who is familiar with each other and pulls Yue Flip to discuss the Qingyu case as soon as they meet.
Zhang Shuye gave Yue Chuan a different feeling, originally thought that he was a very courageous civil official, a military general among civil officials, but now I found that he should be a typical literati, ** type of civil official, he loves art, but also loves the technology of governing the people, and loves the art of war, and he can't let go of the book all year round - "The Art of War" and "Han Feizi" are the two books he is most unwilling to give up.
It is said that Song Shenzong once asked a civil official for advice on "Han Feizi", and this civil official immediately changed his face, and seemed to be very unhappy, and he did not want the emperor to read these Legalist books, thinking that the emperor only needed to read the books of the sages, and Zhang Shuye, as a very famous literati, would actually like these books, which really made Yue Tuo feel special.
Zhang Shuye felt that Yue Flip was both civil and military at a young age, and he could write a good hand, write a good word, and Wu could strangle the rebellion and restore Lang Lang Qiankun, which was really a rare talent, so in the interval between the march of the army, Zhang Shuye pulled Yue Flip all day long to discuss poetry and songs, as well as scriptures, and even included calligraphy and painting skills, and then Yue Flip learned that his "Suddenly Looking Back" was collected by Emperor Huizong, and then Yue Flip's work was suddenly worth a lot.
No wonder Yue Flip felt that before leaving, there seemed to be a lot of strangers on Yue's Zhuangzi, and his eyes were weird, for this reason, Yue Flip also specially instructed Song Jiang to pay attention to these people, strictly guard against them, and don't be repeated by these people The tragedy of the snowy night.
Do they want to buy calligraphy and paintings by themselves?
Yue Flip also heard that his imitation Yan Zhenqing calligraphy was greatly appreciated by Emperor Huizong, and felt that this font was very vigorous and vigorous, and it was a good man who could write the words at a glance, very Yan Zhenqing's style, and Yue's character was also spread, Yue Flip remembered that he had intentionally or unintentionally released only seven calligraphy and painting works, and now all seven have owners, three fell into the hands of Emperor Huizong, four fell into the hands of the ministers of the dynasty, and then two ministers dedicated their calligraphy and paintings to Emperor Huizong in order to please Emperor Huizong.
There is no market, this is the status quo of Yue Translation's calligraphy and painting in Kaifeng Mansion, Emperor Huizong even did not hesitate to exchange official positions in order to obtain Yue Translation's calligraphy and painting, so there were two ministers who offered Yue Translation's calligraphy and painting, and the folk are even more so, the pursuit of Yue Translation's calligraphy and painting to a certain extent.
Yue Flip himself didn't know that his calligraphy and paintings were so awesome, so sought-after, although he knew that this was because of Emperor Huizong's personal preferences and the emperor's power, what the emperor liked, there would be people pursuing, Hua Shigang came from this, Yue Flip did not object to Emperor Huizong's obsession with his own calligraphy and painting, that was very good for himself, but it seems that you should be careful in the future, this kind of thing, the less it flows out, the more precious the price, and your own room of manuscripts and drawings will be burned anytime and anywhere, Otherwise, your calligraphy and paintings will be worthless.
Isn't there just a shortage of money? Very good, let's make money selling calligraphy and paintings! In the past few years, the calligraphy and paintings have been sold at sky-high prices, and after the Jin soldiers invaded the south, they became rich and rivaled the country.
What the emperor wants, I'm afraid that no one wants to buy it? What Emperor Huizong is willing to do is his business, Yue Chuan doesn't care about the ethics of selling officials and scholars, if the scholars and doctors of the Northern Song Dynasty really have integrity, there will not only be Zhang Shuye and Li Ruoshui who died for the Northern Song Dynasty, and the Southern Song Dynasty will not only have a handful of literati martyred for it.
A country, whether it is too good for the literati and suppresses the martial arts, or too good for the martial arts and suppresses the literati, Yue Fu is very opposed, the former will cause the Song Dynasty to be poor and weak, and the latter will bring about the warlord melee situation of five dynasties and ten countries, which is not advisable, the civil and military complement each other, this is the way for the country to survive, the Tang Dynasty went to one extreme, and the Song Dynasty went to the other extreme.
How should this problem be dealt with, Yue Chuan felt that there was no need to think about it, at least in 20 years, there was no need to think about it, in the next 20 years, the Jin soldiers went south several times, and the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty was in turmoil, where is there still a heart to think about the ethics of the Gangchang? The next twenty years will be a disaster for the literati, but for the warriors, it will be a unique golden age at the turn of the Northern and Southern Song Dynasty.
It's a pity that this golden age, that is, when the disaster of the Han nation was unprecedentedly bad, Yue heard a sentence, and he didn't know whether it was right or wrong, when the military was the most active, that is, when the country was most in danger, and when the military was regarded as a waste, the country was too peaceful, and the ancient countries seemed to be like this, the army was strong, but the country was chaotic.
Yue Fan didn't know how to change all this, of course, he didn't have enough time to think, Yue Fan's current time was all used to deal with Zhang Shuye's crazy curiosity and planning against Fang La's army, Fang La's army was naturally a rabble against Lin Chong's fierce cavalry, but Lin Chong's fierce cavalry was only three thousand, and Fang La's army, as far as I knew, was 150,000!
According to the number of people in the south of the Yangtze River in the Song Dynasty and the area where Fang La revolted, as well as the degree of resistance of the oppressed people in the Song Dynasty, it is not difficult to see that the total annihilation of 5,000 soldiers and horses in Song and Zhejiang at one time, and the 100,000 people of the Xiang army in the south of the Yangtze River were defeated in a row.
Yue Tuo didn't think that the 30,000 troops that Zhang Ying had reorganized all the way had any effect, but leaving other men, women, children, and disabled soldiers in Jiangning Mansion to take care of it, and only fighting with 30,000 young soldiers and horses, the effect was naturally self-evident, and it was definitely much better than the 150,000 people who seemed to be, plus Lin Chong's 3,000 iron horsemen with firearms, Yue Tuo was a little confident.
The firearms of the Great Song Dynasty during this period did have some effect, Yue looked at the firearms in Lin Chong's hands, which was originally not visible, but Lin Chong violated discipline a little, and showed Yue a firearm such as a thunderbolt fireball, as well as barrels of gunpowder, Yue Flip's Jiangnan Heroine is a top student in the Department of Chemistry, for this very primitive **, she knows everything about it, she once entered a sick state when the senior sister was the most ferocious, and she had to configure it to deal with the senior sister by herself. The tragedy was reversed.
Don't underestimate a delicate woman.
Yue Flip later did some research, he found that the gunpowder used by the Song army today is still very primitive gunpowder, even if this gunpowder is mastered by the Jin and Tangut people, Yue Flip is not afraid, because firearms are still in a very primitive stage, Yue Flip is not worried that the Jin and Tangut people can be more powerful than him in the development of gunpowder, just like the Jin and Mongols can never defeat the Song army in the bow and arrow, the power of the divine arm bow is really high.
And the Song army's disadvantage in cavalry is not something that a Yuejia army can make up for, if you want to fight against cavalry, in the absence of strong cavalry, firearms are the best choice!
