Walking out of the Chinese army's tent in a daze, Ye Luming suddenly felt that his sleeves were being pulled, and when he looked back, it was Xiao Zhen, who had a complicated relationship with him.

"Why, aren't you optimistic about tomorrow's battle?" Xiao Zhen quipped.

Finally there was a person who understood in front of him, and Ye Luming seriously analyzed the current situation, "It's all joking at this time, I don't believe you don't see the danger in this." If, I mean, if Da Liao loses this battle, then at least half of Da Liao's territory ......"

"Stop, don't you understand? It's not just you and I who can see the danger, it's just that many people don't want to face today's Da Liao. I have already begun to think about how to defend Youzhou and shield the western capital of Datong and the grassland in case things are unfavorable. Xiao Zhen changed his usual uninhibited attitude and became cautious.

"Protect Youzhou? You're so unoptimistic about this battle? Jeremiah was taken aback. Although he is known as a "wise general", whether he is strategizing or charging, Xiao Zhen, who seems to be out of tune, is far stronger than himself, Ye Luming has always thought so.

Xiao Zhen narrowed his eyes and looked at the orange-red sunset, the corners of his eyes were a little astringent. "Do your best, let it be the fate of heaven. I always feel that now is not a good opportunity for a decisive battle with the Jurchens, if we strictly guard the gate......

"Forget it, don't think about it anymore, there's no point. Tomorrow you are on the left wing, and I am on the right wing, and each of them will have a destiny. You think about it again, and if there is a big change this time, pull him down from that position......"

"Shut up! I pretended I hadn't heard anything. ”

Xiao Zhen touched his black bow and smiled evilly. "Hehe, it's still so generous. You only think about the so-called righteousness of the monarch and the ministers, but have you ever thought about the importance of your personal ethics and the fate of the entire Khitan clan, I really don't know where you learned the stinky problems of so many Han people. ”

Seeing that Ye Luming still wanted to refute, Xiao Zhen added fuel to the fire. "If you hadn't insisted on the so-called overall situation and gave up my sister and that position, where would there be today's crisis. Now, my sister is depressed and has died young. And after your cousin came to power, the army was corrupted and rebellions broke out......"

"Enough!"

"Haha, Jerman, excited? I thought you'd keep calm, but no. Xiao Zhen grabbed Ye Luming's shirt and pushed him to the lamppost next to him, and the armor and stake collided and emitted "Pound!" "A bang.

"My eldest sister asked me to protect you before she died, so even if you don't like it again, Lao Tzu has to try to protect you. If the war doesn't go well tomorrow, I will take my own troops and horses to control Youzhou, and you also know what your clan uncle is like, and he can't hold it. ”

"Yelu and Xiao are not separated, you have two choices, either go and report it now, or go with Lao Tzu after the war. At that time, whether Da Liao can hold the west and south in exchange for a glimmer of life depends only on you and me! After finishing speaking, Xiao Zhen let go of the painful Yeluming and left in style.

At noon the next day, the morning sun shone on the earth, and the sun fell on people's bodies gently, and it was very comfortable to be lazy.

On this bitter winter day, it must be a pride to ride a horse and run on an endless ice field, but the war has ruined all this.

The grassland was covered with snow and ice, and the two armies were slowly approaching, hundreds of thousands of horses' hooves trampling on the ice and snow, crumbling and splashing. The patches of dry turf regained their sight, but before they could react, they were quickly stirred up into a cloud of mud with the galloping horses.

In the northwest of the battlefield was the 450,000 soldiers of the Great Liao, and in the southeast was the 50,000 allied troops of the Jurchens. To the east is a small frozen river, which is slippery due to high winds and sunshine.

The layout of both sides was simple, with a large infantry formation in the middle and a cavalry phalanx on both flanks.

Among the 200,000 cavalry of the Liao State, 70,000 of the most elite tent cavalry pressed behind the infantry, and 15,000 tent cavalry were deployed on each side, and together with 25,000 tribal cavalry, supervised 25,000 servant cavalry.

In the middle of the Jurchens was a large array of 20,000 heavy infantry, with 8,000 light cavalry on the right side and all the remaining cavalry on the left.

Just after noon, after using dry rations, the two armies, which had been marching for a long time, finally met together. There is no shouting before the battle, and there is no talk of surrender, the battle of life and death is done!

Lan Tai looked at the Khitan servant army opposite, the armor on his body was different from old and new, incomplete, and the military formation was even more crooked. Looking at the mighty and majestic Jurchen brothers, the last trace of fear for the Khitan army in their hearts vanished.

The military formations of the Khitan tent army and the tribal army are still well maintained, but their armor and weapons are also half-new, which is in stark contrast to the bright and bright piece of the Jurchen coalition army.

Lan Tai was originally the chief of a small Jurchen tribe, and after defecting to Aguta, he was named the head of a hundred households in Meng'an Mouke, and after this war, he was likely to be promoted to the head of a thousand households and became a high-ranking Jurchen officer. If he was still alive, of course.

During the previous march, the Jurchen coalition army burned and looted all the way, and Lantai himself led more than 200 Jurchen warriors to capture two small Khitan cities and defeat thousands of Khitan cavalry one after another.

The Khitan people's riding skills are still first-class, and their bows and arrows are still very accurate. But their armor was very old and very little, and the money was taken by the nobles for enjoyment. Their horses were thin, their bows and arrows were weak, and they had no will to fight, and they were almost crushed at once.

Lan Tai didn't understand complicated issues such as army erosion and the law of historical cycles, he just saw from the perspective of a Jurchen warrior that the era of the Khitans had passed, and the era of the Jurchens was coming. Therefore, he wants to accumulate enough capital for his children and grandchildren in this great war that will determine the fate of the Jurchens.

Hailig is a native of Murowei and has just been named Meng'an Mok. After this war, if you are lucky enough not to die, you will be able to share dozens of slave families.

The yellow-headed Murwei was once powerful hundreds of years ago, and fought against the rising Khitan for a hundred years, and finally chose to surrender. The Houmurwei people followed the Khitans to fight in the south and the north, and many of the Murwei people made great contributions.

But the people of Murowe did not receive the corresponding benefits. In the internal strife of the Khitan nobles, the interests of their subordinate tribes were constantly weakened, and most of them eventually became the shepherd slaves of the Khitan nobles.

After the Jurchens raised their troops, the Khitan stepped up the exploitation of these subordinate tribes, and the tribes that could not bear it one after another threw themselves into the Jurchen side, and Heilig was also the Jurchen coalition army that joined at that time.

Looking at the chaotic servant army and tribal army formation of the Liao State, Hei Lige looked down on it in his heart, because he knew the combat power of these people very well.

The soldiers of the Khitan servant army were usually untrained, and their lives were miserable, and many of them sold their weapons. Only some of the tribal armies on the Zhou-Liao border still have combat power, and the others are basically all herdsmen of Khitan nobles.

The corrupt Khitan nobles no longer invested a lot of resources in the army, but used them to satisfy their own luxurious life. The Great Zhou transported large quantities of silk, tea, and porcelain to the north through mutual markets to obtain cattle, sheep, horses, and furs.

The scholar doctor of Da Zhou was arrogant, saying that Zhou Liao negotiated peace and Da Zhou was his brother, but he didn't suffer a loss, you see how much money we earn them every year, no more than the compensation we pay? Later generations of economists ridiculed kneeling to make money, and the root is here. There is more and more money, and people are more and more obscene.

Some historians are puzzled and do not understand why the wise and talented Ah Guda fought a dangerous decisive battle. Ah Guta actually thought it through, and finally found that he had to block everything, and the decision to fight an early decisive battle was also supported by the Jurchens.

The most important thing for the Jurchens is the shortage of resources, whether it is soldiers, population or materials, the Jurchen soldiers are very brave, but there are few helpless people. Even if the Great Liao is erosive, the national strength is far stronger than that of the Jurchens, and if the Jurchens are consumed, they will perish sooner or later.

There is only one way for the Jurchens, to consume a large number of Liao troops in a short period of time, and then before the giant of Liao awakens and trains the army to counterattack, the victory or defeat will be decided in a battle!

Ah Guta summarized the news obtained from various channels and repeatedly estimated the actual combat effectiveness of the Liao army, so he dared to hit ten with one blow.

For the sake of this decisive battle with fewer enemies, the Jurchen high-level repeatedly publicized the vulnerability of the Great Liao army. After being verified on the battlefield, the soldiers of the Jurchen coalition army already had the courage to face the Khitan and face it head-on.

Many years later, Li Xiang looked at the memoirs of the Jurchen generals compiled by the Military Intelligence Department, and admired the Jurchen high-level leaders who seized the opportunity to rise at that time.

……

Xiong Chengwu and Yang Jianchuan were fighting the cow, panting and sweating, but it was not a fight.

"See, this is the positive and negative principle of force, you give me 10 catties, I will give you 10 catties. There is not much difference in the strength of Xiong and Yang, so the two of them can't move. But if Xiong Chengwu and... What about Xiong Chengwen's top cow? Li wanted to stop the two muscular teenagers and gestured to raise their hands to answer.

A four-eyed boy was the first to understand, raising his thin right hand, and Li wanted to signal to answer.

"Master, Chengwen will be pushed away, because Chengwen can't give so much force." Four-Eyed Boy's answer is still so simple and simple, it's this eye... Myopia?!

The encouraged four-eyed boy squinted his eyes and smirked, and Xiong Chengwen had already begun to grit his teeth. Then the course was over, and they went back to their respective homes.

Physics is one of Li Xiang's best subjects, and he once took the city... Forget it, I can't go back, it's boring. Because the textbooks, props and basic knowledge are too far apart, Li Xiang can only teach some basic laws and experiments to teenagers who are talented or aspiring.

Classes in Mingyue Village can only be held during the day, and the sunlight must be good. Candle? Sorry, only the rich and noble would have the luxury of lighting all night.

So it is both unfortunate and lucky, the children in Mingyuezhai have no homework at night, and they go to bed at about eight o'clock, but the rooster has to get up.

After Li Mengkong and others came to the door, Li Xiang became more and more curious about Da Zhou in the outside world. Is Confucianism really the culprit of China's downfall? What kind of society is Confucianism that controls everything?

In the original time and space, Confucianism was criticized for misrepresenting China for thousands of years, and of course some people disagreed. After the resurgence of China, some people wanted to revive Confucianism under the banner of traditional culture, while some supported and some opposed......

After careful consideration, Li Xiang decided not to introduce the Four Books and Five Classics first, at least until the hundred schools of thought were preliminarily sorted out, and not to teach the Tao of Confucius and Mencius alone.

After the exclusive reverence for Confucianism, other ideas were suppressed, and Confucianism was supplemented and perfected by countless great Confucians more than a thousand times. As a result, after a thousand years, other doctrines are still stuck in a thousand years ago, that is, outdated, and only Confucianism is constantly supplementing and developing.

There are no checks and balances, in case the children of Mengxue are "assimilated" cleanly, Li Xiang will not even cry.
