Opportunity always belongs to the person who is good at seizing it. In the eyes of onlookers, they are simply lucky and lucky. But in fact, in order to grasp the fleeting opportunity, they usually put in several times more effort than ordinary people.

Dou Jiande, the king of Leshou, has a deep understanding of this. Whenever he looked back at his path from an ordinary thief to a local prince, he was always glad that he had made the right choice in a few moments.

The first opportunity in his life was to raise troops to avenge Sun Anzu. At that time, at the banquet, Zhang Jin, the giant who had joined Sun Anzu, claimed to have 100,000 people, and almost no one in the entire Hebei dared to compete with him. Only he, Dou Jiande, with a team of less than 2,000 people, actually mourned for Sun Anzu with great fanfare, and called on all the heroes of the green forest to jointly crusade against Zhang Jincheng. Although this move caused Dou Jiajun to be beaten by Zhang Jin's subordinate general Wang Guiliu, and ran straight from Changhe County to the depths of Douzigang. But since then, the entire Hebei Green Forest heroes mentioned Dou Jiande's name, and no one secretly gave a thumbs up.

The second chance in his life is to clean up the mess left by Gao Shida alone. At that time, among the people who won the position of the chief scoop of Hebei Lvlin, any one of them was bigger than his Dou Jiande. But everyone was killed by Li Xu and Yang Yichen, and they hid near Douzigang and didn't dare to come out. Only he, Dou Jiande, calculated that the offensive of Li and Yang would not last long, and led his troops to kill Pingyuan County, first picked up tens of thousands of brothers who were scattered, and then took advantage of the trend to move eastward, and captured and killed Guo Xuan, Cheng Guo Xuan, who was in the limelight, and Yang Shanhui, Cheng Yang Shanhui of Qinghe County, who were in the limelight, one after another. This move not only did not attract the joint revenge of Li Xu and Yang Yichen, but made Gao Kaidao, Yang Gongqing, and Wang Bo, who were ordinary and above-topped, the green forest tycoons convinced Dou Jiajun, and from then on they were willing to be bound by him Dou someone.

The third opportunity in his life was to mediate the conflict between the officials and armies of Youzhou and Boling as the chief of Hebei Lvlin. Although either of the two official armies is annoyed and angry, it may push the Dou family army into the abyss from which it will never recover. Although the gentry of the whole Hebei took this as a joke. But Dou Jiande has completed a task that others dare not think of. The stalemate Boling Army and the Youzhou Army did not dare to let the other party take advantage of the fisherman, so they had to take advantage of the situation. Since then, the Dou family army has rightly taken over the plains, Qinghe, Wu'an, Bohai four counties and the small half of the river, which are beyond the reach of the imperial court, and has become the third largest force in Hebei that can compete with the Boling army and the Youzhou army.

Now, the fourth opportunity is in front of Dou Jiande. There is no need to send a detailed investigation to inquire about the details, just from the recent half-month Tuntian point in the six counties of Boling to start issuing weapons, Dou Jiande understands that his neighbor Li Xu is going to take action again. Except for the Tiger Ben Iron Cavalry from Youzhou, Dou Jiande couldn't figure out which heroic man could force Li Xu, who had the reputation of a victorious general, to the point of mobilizing all the forces under his command. However, he clearly knew that if he waved his army to Xindu and Zhao County when Li Xu was inseparable from the new enemy, the Boling army would definitely not have the strength to turn back and make up for it.

Copied Li Xu's back road, and took advantage of the situation to bring most of Hebei under his command. Then he went north to Youzhou to completely solve the problems on his back. After completing the above steps, Dou Jiajun can safely go south to fight for the world. There is not much time left for him, Li Yuan has conquered Chang'an more than ten years ago, and Wagangzhai has also included most of Henan except for Luoyang, Hongnong and Shangluo counties. If he Dou Jiande had the benevolence of a woman, he might have withdrawn from the hunting ground forever.

Now, the key is to find out who is the enemy in front of the Boling army? When did the battle with the Boling Army begin? How far will it be possible? Dou Jiande discussed it with his subordinate Wenwu several times, but he couldn't understand why. In addition to his Dou Jiande, there are only three forces connected to the six counties of Boling, including Luo Yi, Liu Wuzhou and Li Yuan. The Youzhou Army under Luo Yi has just suffered a lot of losses in front of the Boling Army, and it is estimated that he will not be interested in fighting another battle in a short time. Liu Wuzhou's power has swelled extremely rapidly in the past six months, but if he takes the initiative to attack Zhuojun, he is likely to be hit from the direction of Taiyuan on the side. As for the last Li Yuan, the possibility of conflict with Li Xu is even more minimal. Not to mention that his daughter is Li Xu's wife, the two families are Weng's son-in-law and uncle and nephew, and they can't write two Li characters in one stroke. Relying only on the friendship of Boling with 3,000 strong men when the Taiyuan soldiers and horses went south, Li Laoyu had no cheekiness, and she just got Chang'an and unloaded the mill and killed the donkey.

In addition to the above three people, the only one who may conflict with Li Xu is Dou Jiande. But the messenger from Boling was resting in the post house. Since this person is known as the Dou and Li families to form an alliance against Wagang, of course, it indicates that the Boling army will not go south to find trouble with the Dou family army in a short period of time. Besides, there is a Luo Yi behind Li Xu, if he transfers most of his soldiers and horses to Xindu, which borders Qinghe County, Luo Yi will definitely attack his lair directly after hearing the news.

"It doesn't matter who he fights with, let's do ours" Wang Fubao, the general under Dou Jiande, patted the leather crown on his head, and said with an angry voice. He wore the regular clothes of a military general today, and his body was full of luxury. From any angle, it is not as pleasing to the eye as the usual iron helmet on his head and when he is deeply draped in lotus leaf armor. Not only himself, but most of the generals under Dou Jiande's command also sat or stood up. If you are a little picky, it is not too much to describe it with the words "Mu Monkey and Crown".

"Fighting unprepared, even if there is a victory, it is bound to be difficult to last long!" Nayan Song Zhengben glanced at Wang Fubao and said angrily. Speaking from his heart, he was very reluctant to discuss the military situation with Wang Fubao and other reckless men. Eight out of ten sentences are nonsense, and the remaining two sentences are often off-topic.

"Song Nayan is right, the surname Li is raising soldiers in the people to plot against us, and it is not completely impossible. At that time, he dragged Luo Yi with civilian soldiers, and went south with a hundred elite soldiers......" The marching commander Scondesau glanced at the generals and said out loud another concern. In terms of combat effectiveness alone, Wang Boling is still far stronger than the Dou family. Although the surname Li has never had a record of dishonesty in others, no one can guarantee that he will suddenly send an envoy to discuss the alliance, whether it will be just to paralyze everyone, and then make Dou Jiajun give up his vigilance against him.

For talented scholars such as Song Zhengben and Kong Deshao, Wang Fubao has always been very respectful. Therefore, although he was treated by the other party with white eyes, he still smiled kindly and explained in a low voice, "I mean we don't need to worry about what the surnamed Li is doing. If what he does works for us, learn it. If it's useless, he loves to lose his own family, let's follow what nonsense. When he finishes losing the family business, everyone just goes to clean up the mess! ”

This remark was very much in line with the appetite of the generals, and for a while, General Zhang Qingte of the Zuo, General Yin Qiu of the Ming Dynasty, and General Shi Zan of Yangwei all echoed their words. As martial artists from the green forest, they don't like to speculate on the tune of other people's minds behind closed doors. At present, most of the policies implemented by the Dou family's military administration were copied from Boling as they were, and practice has proved that the results are very good. The people who lived a stable life again soon forgot who caused them to leave their homeland, and vied with each other to praise Dou Wang Ye as a good man who knew the suffering of the people.

By analogy, the six counties of Boling sent weapons to the people, and it was not inevitable that the plains, Qinghe and other places would follow suit. Although the results may not be visible in the short term, in the long run, it may not be a good way to hide troops from the people.

"It's easy to say, but it's easy to do!" The marching commander Scondesau was very troubled by the nonsense of the generals, and could not help but interrupt again. He once served as a county magistrate, and he was one of the few people under Dou Jiande who had experience in expecting the people, so he knew that it was difficult to govern the government, "The surname Li has a thick family background, and the six counties of Boling have not experienced military disasters for a long time, he sent weapons to Tuntian, and each person issued a horizontal knife will not let the treasury see the bottom." If we follow along, where does the iron come from, where do the craftsmen come from, and who will pay for the cost of making weapons and armor? ”

"Didn't the autumn grain just come into storage? When we conquered Longgang, I remember that I also copied a lot of floating wealth from big families! Wang Fubao didn't have any concept of financial revenue and expenditure, frowned, and continued to follow the blind mixing.

"General Wang's command has just changed his armor. I wonder if the brethren feel the fit? Condesau shrugged his shoulders and asked rhetorically.

Wang Fubao patted his thigh happily and replied with a grin, "No, my old Wang has led soldiers for so many years, and for the first time, the brothers under his command don't look like a group of flowers!" ”

"A horizontal knife costs 1,000 two, and a set of leather armor inlaid with iron bars costs 3,000, and we can't make iron armor ourselves, and the price of each pair is above 10,000 yuan. A total of 24,500 people under General Wang's command changed their costumes this time. Among them, there are one hundred and thirty-two generals who have received a full body of iron and willow leaf armor......" Before Kong Deshao's words could be finished, Wang Fubao and several old men beside him had already lowered their heads in shame. Everyone only remembered that they could grab a lot of money by breaking the city and plundering the land, but they forgot that the Dou family army was no longer a bandit. They should be regularized step by step, so that the veterans have the right armor to wear, the right weapons to use, and the right salaries for the officers. In this way, even if they were able to fight for the next county town in Western Europe every month, the income would not be enough to support the expenses of the brothers.

Seeing that everyone was impressed by his words, Kong Deshao couldn't help but raise his head a little, looked at Dou Jiande's face and continued to add, "So my subordinates suggest that starting next spring, the investment in each reclamation point should be minimized." In addition, the number of soldiers under the command of the generals should also be sorted out in detail, those who can fight will stay as soldiers, and those who cannot fight will be allocated land as soon as possible to participate in the military cantonment......"

"What if Li Zhongjian is really as you said and is ready to raise troops to the south?" This time, Dou Jiande couldn't help himself at first, and frowned and asked.

"Since the king has fought for so many years, he should know that soldiers are more expensive than more." Kong Deshao was forced to tighten his heart by Dou Jiande's gaze, and he forced himself to admonish.
