Chapter 279: Secret into Xiangyang
Lin Haotian narrowed his eyes and said word by word: "My solution is...... Break through the defenses and fight into the city!"
Flutter! His words almost made all the generals vomit blood on the spot, which means that he didn't say anything!
Lin Haotian looked around at everyone, sneered, and said: "In this battle, I will fight with all my brothers, live and die together, advance and retreat together, what's the matter? Do you all think that our army can't defeat Xiangyang?"
The adults have to fight side by side with themselves, and how can the generals show weakness, and they all said: "I am willing to fight bravely with the adults, even if I die on the battlefield and break my bones, I will not give up!"
"Well! This is what our generals should say!" Lin Haotian turned his horse's head and said, "Let's go back to the camp for the time being!"
Lin Haotian led the generals back to the camp.
After returning to the camp tent, Lin Haotian did not rest, looking at the sand table in the Chinese military tent, thinking about how to fight tomorrow's siege battle.
Together with Lin Haotian were Chu Lianyu and Bi Wen, their expressions were much more dignified than Lin Haotian's, standing next to the sand table, their brows furrowed tighter than the other.
After thinking about it, Lin Haotian decided to sneak into Xiangyang City to take a look.
His move was bold enough, when the two countries were at war, as the commander of an army, he wanted to go to the capital of the enemy country in person, and no one would have such courage.
Of course, Lin Haotian can definitely be regarded as an outlier in this era.
Knowing that Lin Haotian decided only Chu Lianyu and Bi Wen, both of them strongly opposed, but as long as Lin Haotian thought it was right, even Chu Lianyu and Bi Wen would be difficult to change his mind.
Lin Haotian also has his own ideas, no matter how much he reads the map, it is a map after all, it is a piece of paper, it is far better than taking a trip in person, and he is not going shopping in Xiangyang. If he can, he will personally come forward to contact the high-ranking officials of the Wood Country, no matter whether he uses coercion or bribery, in short, he has to win over a group of ministers of the Wood Country to his side. He believes that in the current form of the wood country. The court of the wood country will never be a monolith, there must be gaps to drill in it, and there is wall grass to use.
Chu Lianyu and Bi Wen agreed with these ideas, but let Lin Haotian personally get into danger, and the two still objected, but his opposition did not change Lin Haotian's decision, and Lin Haotian finally left for Xiangyang. However, only Chu Lianyuyi, Bi Wen, and Shao Lin knew about it, and even Lu Kai, Zhang Bufan, and Dou Bo were kept in the dark.
Lin Haotian was also very careful in his actions. When leaving, only Shao Lin was by his side, and the two changed into civilian clothes, took advantage of the night to leave their own military camp, and quietly sneaked into Xiangyang City.
The two took advantage of the night to quietly come to the city wall of Xiangyang, and then, Lin Haotian and Shao Lin took advantage of the gap between the guards' inspections. Throw away the rope in your hand and climb the city wall with your hands and feet. Blended into the city of Xiangyang.
At this time, just after Yin, the sky was still in Hunan, and it was just in time for the mist to fall from the sky, and when I raised my eyes, the huge Xiangyang City was shrouded in fog, and I looked inside. There are many high platforms and pavilions, hazy and hazy, like a fairyland.
The two of them walked on the road, and they were a little stunned for a while.
This is Mudu, where the Imperial Court of Muguo is located!
Who would have thought. Just a year ago, the army of Mu Guo was still besieging the Jin capital Wancheng, and two years later, the spearhead of the Jin army has turned to Xiangyang.
After a long time, Shao Linfang came back to his senses and couldn't help but sigh: "If there is no adult, I'm afraid that my Jin Army will not be able to beat Xiangyang in another hundred years!"
Lin Haotian was happy, turned his head and glanced at Shao Lin, and said, "What is the mere Xiangyang? I still have to lay a bigger territory!"
Shao Lin looked at Lin Haotian in surprise and asked, "My lord...... After the eldest brother destroys the wood, he still has to use troops?"
Shao Lin originally wanted to call Lin Haotian by his official rank, but after thinking about it, now that they were under the jurisdiction of the Mu Army, the trouble came out of his mouth, and he immediately changed the name of Lin Haotian to the eldest brother.
Lin Haotian said faintly: "The annexation of the Mu Country, the territory of my Jin Country will almost double, and the national strength will be increased several times, and whoever dares to disobey my country's orders will be trampled on his head by the army of my Jin Country!"
Shao Lin was stunned for a moment, and then asked in surprise: "Big brother wants to dominate the world?"
Lin Haotian said with a smile: "It's to help the king rule the world." ”
"And then the eldest brother will abolish the king again?"
Lin Haotian's body was shocked, he looked at Shao Lin squarely, and said with a smile: "No, I'm ...... But how can you do such a rebellious thing?"
Shao Lin smiled bitterly, the adult's words were like a joke, half-truth, but even if the adult did not have the intention of ascending to the throne at this time, it does not mean that there will be no in the future, there is a world of difference between the courtier and the king, who can say clearly what will happen in the future?
He seemed to be talking to himself and as if he was saying to Lin Haotian, and said: "Your Excellency's Wen Taowu is slightly above Zhao Yu, why can't your Excellency change the dynasty?"
Lin Haotian raised his eyebrows, glanced at Shao Lin deeply, did not speak again, and strode forward.
The eastern and southern borders of the wood country are in full swing, but it does not affect the prosperity and prosperity of the capital at all, even if it is only early in the morning, the people in the city are also busy.
Lin Haotian and Shao Lin mixed among the people, walking on the streets of Xiangyang, the feeling of the two is that the first person is many, the pedestrian crowd in Xiangyang City is surging, and there are all kinds of people in the south and north of the world, the second is the pavilion is high, obviously the construction industry of the wood country is very developed, and the four-story and five-story pavilions are rare in the Jin country, and here, you can see it everywhere. Lin Haotian also took a closer look, the general foundation of the high-rise pavilion is made of stone, and the upper floor is wooden, which is very solid and does not have the slightest sense of crumbling.
After seeing it, Lin Haotian also nodded secretly, the civilization of the Wood Country is much higher than that of the Jin Country, not only the construction industry, but also in all other fields, because of this, Lin Haotian is even more coveted by the Wood Country, and the annexation of the Wood Country will undoubtedly add a large number of talents in various fields to the Jin Country, which can make the civilization and national strength of the Jin Army leap forward in a short period of time.
"Big brother, what are we going to do now?" After a dizzying amazement, Shao Lin gradually regained his composure and asked Lin Haotian beside him.
Lin Haotian said: "Find an inn to live in first." ”
Shao Lin nodded, and then said in a low voice: "Big brother, do we need to dress up again? After all, there are many wooden troops who have fought with us, and it would be bad if they were recognized on the street." ”
Lin Haotian secretly praised Shao Lin for being careful, he raised his hand to lift the sweat towel wrapped around his neck, covered his mouth, and said: "That's it, even if you really meet someone who has seen us, the other party may not dare to recognize it." ”
This is true, who would dare to believe that the dignified Jin Army commander would appear in Xiangyang with only one entourage?
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Lin Haotian and Shao Lin found an inconspicuous inn and stayed temporarily.
Next, Lin Haotian began to choose the object he wanted to woo.
His first target was Li Qi, the imperial historian of the Mu Kingdom!
In the imperial courts of various countries, the imperial historian was responsible for supervising hundreds of officials, and the power in his hands was extremely powerful. In addition, Li Qi has served as the imperial historian of the Mu Kingdom for a long time, and he is the pillar of the Mu Kingdom, with his own deep-rooted forces, and his decisions can affect a large number of important ministers in the Mu Kingdom court, which is also one of the main factors that Lin Haotian likes him.
Li Qi is in a high position, and it is not easy to get close to him, but it also depends on luck. Lin Haotian and Shao Lin only squatted outside Li Qi's mansion for two days before they found an opportunity.
On this day, at noon, Li Qi was invited out of the house and went to the most famous restaurant in Xiangyang, Zuixianju.
Lin Haotian and Shao Lin were keenly aware that the opportunity to contact Li Qi had come.
The two followed Li Qi's carriage and also went to the Drunken Immortal Residence.
After arriving, seeing that Li Qi had been in for a while, Lin Haotian and Shao Lin walked in.
As soon as the two of them entered the door, the shopkeeper greeted them and asked with a smile, "Guest officer, are you two?"
Lin Haotian didn't answer, Shao Lin said, "That's right!"
"Are you two sitting upstairs or downstairs?"
"Did Li Yushi come just now?"
"yes!"
"Prepare a private room next door to Li Yushi for me!" Shao Lin said expressionlessly, and at the same time pinched out a piece of broken silver from his arms and put it in the hand of the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper is well-informed, and guesses that these two may be the people who entrusted Zhang Zhihong to do things.
He took the silver with a smile, nodded again and again, led the way, and let Lin Haotian and Shao Lin to the third floor.
While walking the shopkeeper, he introduced: "The third floor is a luxurious room, and the price is not cheap...... Looking at Lin Haotian and Shao Lin's clothes, the shopkeeper is really afraid that they will not be able to pay.
Shao Lin sneered, took out another gold ingot weighing twenty taels, held it in his palm, and asked, "Are these enough?"
Shopkeeper looked at the gold ingot, couldn't help but swallow and spit at the mouth, was stunned for a moment before coming back to his senses, the smile on his face was even stronger, nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "Enough, enough, enough." "What a human being who is unseemly!
Entering the private room, the shopkeeper began to introduce again: "Guest officer, the girl in this store can sing and dance......
Without waiting for him to finish, Shao Lin waved his hand and said, "No need! ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Wait a minute, the little one will prepare. The shopkeeper liked this kind of bold guest the most, and ran away.
After Xiao Er left, Shao Lin looked at Lin Haotian and said in a low voice: "Big brother, there are a few masters in the guards around Li Qi. ”
Lin Haotian nodded his head, when Li Qi came out of the mansion, he had already noticed that he didn't know how high the other party's specific cultivation was, but the natural pressure between his hands and feet should not be underestimated.
He picked up the teapot on the table, sniffed it slightly, then poured himself a cup of tea, and said, "We're not here to do it, whether it's powerful or not, it doesn't matter to us." ”
"If the eldest brother fails to convince Li Qi and falls out of the ......"
"I can't beat it, it's always okay for you and me to run away. Lin Haotian said with a light smile.
Shao Lin didn't ask any more, stood up, and said in a low voice, "Big brother, I'll go outside and watch." ”
"Yes, be careful. ”
"Yes!"
Li Qi next door seemed to have a good conversation with the person who invited him, and the sound of laughter came from time to time in the private room, mixed with the pleasant smile of a woman.
After more than half an hour, Li Qi came out of the private room, apparently to relieve himself.
At this time, Shao Lin, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately stepped forward. (To be continued......)
