Chapter 212: I Didn't Like Him
Bianliang City. Su Shi's actions in Liaojing, with Zhao Zhen's acquiescence, his news is spreading throughout the capital.
When he learned that Tong Zhilang was tossing vigorously in Liaodi, killing and wounding nearly 10,000 Liao soldiers, and crisscrossing the sixteen states of Yanyun and treating the Liao soldiers as nothing, the people were boiling.
Taking back the sixteen states of Yanyun, I don't know how many Han people's wishes, and it has even become an obsession for some people.
It's like some old people, even before they die, they will look at the north and close their eyes, which seems to be saying that the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are their ancestral land, and they can't be buried there when they die, so they won't have the shame to see their ancestors.
It's just a pity that the Liao army is strong, how can it be so easy to really recover the sixteen states of Yanyun?
Now that Western Xia is rising, the Great Song Dynasty can block the enemy on both sides, and it is not easy to maintain the current situation, where will you still think about recovering the lost territory?
In such an environment, Su Shi went to the north, and robbed the wealth of the Liao people and killed the lives of the Liao dogs in the sixteen states of Yanyun, so how could it not make everyone excited?
Even if he can kill more Liao people at most, but he can't really recover the lost territory, everyone is still very willing to support him and listen to his news.
Especially when Su Shi came back from every victory, the business of the wine shops and teahouses in the entire capital was much better.
Among those hook columns, there are even people who wrote lyrics and songs that sang Su Shi, and for a while he became a big celebrity, and he was still very, very famous.
So much so that many people who originally paid attention to the New Deal had to turn their attention to Su Shi. All these changes, whether it is Renzong Zhao Zhen or Fan Zhongyan and others, are happy to see.
The implementation of the New Deal is to tear down some old things and establish some new things, and it is inevitable to offend people in the process, and it is also necessary to move the interests and cakes of others.
And in order to resist, these people often instigate some unwitting people to fight. Whether it is an official family or an important minister like Fan Zhongyan, it is a binding deterrent to officials, but for ordinary people, they can't use officials to coerce people, right?
But now, the people's attention has shifted, of course, it is something they want to do, and they naturally want to add fuel to it to better divert everyone's attention.
It is best to wait for everyone to come to their senses, when the new policy has been implemented almost and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it will be very difficult for anyone to overturn it at that time.
By chance, Su Shi's name is naturally louder. It's just a pity that Su Shi doesn't know about all this, and he doesn't care about the things in Bianliang City now, and now he is listening to the report of Chu Guo from Wanlitong.
When he learned the importance of spying on the military intelligence this time, Chu Guo went into battle in person. He is also worthy of the nickname of the wind, wearing a gilly suit, he is like a tuft of grass, just the kind that can walk, it took two days to find out the inside and outside of the building hall.
It was preliminarily determined that this was indeed a place to build armaments and supplies for the Liao army, and here he saw countless swords, armor and saddles.
Not only that, but the protection here is also very strict, which can be said to be three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry. As for how many Liao troops are here, Chu Guo alone can't find out.
According to preliminary estimates, there are always five or six thousand people. But fortunately, there are mostly infantry here, but cavalry can rarely be seen.
The Liao State had a lot of war horses, but the cost of training a cavalry was high. Especially in these years, Liao and Song Ping'an got along, and when there were no major wars, they deliberately began to reduce the number of cavalry and increase the number of infantry battalions.
The news of Chu Guo came back, and after Su Shi closed the Wanli Pass, he looked at Yang Jingyun, the other scout squadron leader who was already standing in front of him, and said, "Say, what did you find out about Huixian Shi?" ”
"Young marshal, Huixian Stone is a place name, on the surface it looks like it's just a small city, but after two days of observation, I found that it is just a superficial appearance, in fact, there are heavy soldiers hidden there, and there may be eight battalions of men and horses there. The good news is that it's all infantry, not cavalry. One is five or six thousand people, and the other is eight battalions of people, and together they are more than 10,000 people. When they heard this number, Ji Zhu, Wang Can, Feng Yidao, Hu Tongtian, Lu Siqiao and others who attended the meeting couldn't help frowning. The current Su family army is full of battles, and counting all the wounded soldiers who can return to the battlefield, is only about 3,200 people. The opponent's troops are at least three times as large as theirs, and maybe even more, this battle is not easy to fight. Everyone thought that this bone was not easy to gnaw, but Su Shi was muttering the word infantry in his mouth. After a moment, he suddenly returned his gaze to the map, and then muttered something to himself. Everyone knew that this was Su Shi thinking about the problem, and everyone hurriedly silenced, not daring to make a sound, for fear that it would disturb the young marshal. It lasted like this for nearly half an hour, Shi Er saw Su Shi's gaze fall on the map, Shi Er would close his eyes and ponder something, and finally he slammed his fist on the map and said: "This battle can be fought, but everyone must strictly implement military orders and cooperate with each other perfectly." Taking out a cigarette from his pocket, Su Shi sprinkled it around, lit one and took a deep breath, and then slowly explained the thoughts that had been sorted out in his mind just now.
Among them, there were those who didn't understand, Ji Zhu and the others opened their mouths to ask, and Su Shi also gave answers one by one. It wasn't until more than an hour later that the scene was quiet again.
But at this time, everyone was frowning, as if they were digesting the plan that Su Shi had just said.
Unconsciously, everyone's complexion began to stretch, and they suddenly felt that according to the young marshal's plan, this operation still had a great success rate.
The key point is that the cooperation of all parties must be in place, or the kind that cannot make a mistake.
"Everyone go back and think about it, if there is anything you don't understand, you can always come and ask me. Before the evening, if there is no objection, the matter will be decided, and the plan will be implemented early tomorrow morning. Su Shi said in a tone that could not be questioned.
In wars, in many cases, what is required is to be arbitrary, and the more you think about it, the more likely you are to have problems, and in the end, many plans are likely to go bankrupt before they are put into practice.
After a while, everyone left. Su Shi didn't leave, but continued to sit in a wheelchair, he was still rehearsing the plan in his mind over and over again, thinking about whether there were any omissions, how to remedy if there were other accidents, and so on.
Lu Siqiao was Su Shi's guard, and he didn't leave like the others. When Su Shi first opened the plan to explain, she also watched the whole process, although she didn't speak, she saw everything that happened.
It is precisely because of this that she admires Su Shi's boldness even more. The longer she followed Su Shi, the more Lu Siqiao found that she couldn't understand Su Shi.
This man has a calmness that is not equal to his age, loves to laugh, and has a good personality, just like a big brother next door.
But sometimes he is very bold and has a great temper, so many Su Jiajun, if he fights alone, he is afraid that anyone can bully and bully him, but everyone is afraid of him.
When he laughs, everyone laughs along. When he is serious, everyone will also keep a straight face. He always has such a personality charm that will make people involuntarily believe in him and be willing to follow in his footsteps.
By the way, he still has some mysteries, like all the supplies needed by the army, which are borne by him.
In the end, he was always so confident that it seemed that nothing in the world would stump him.
Unconsciously, Lu Siqiao was a little obsessed with it. It wasn't until Yue Siling came to his side at some point that he touched his elbow and said, "How is it?" The young master is very powerful, right? ”
"Uh..." was discovered, and Lu Siqiao couldn't help but blush.
"Don't be embarrassed, the young master is so powerful, it's normal for you to worship him, or even like him." Yue Siling said disapprerovingly.
It doesn't look like a joke, but it comes from the bottom of my heart.
"No, no, I didn't... Like him. The voice became smaller and quieter, until finally, Lu Siqiao's voice was not even clear to herself.
At this time, she couldn't help but think of those brothers and sisters in Hutou Mountain, and also thought of the heavy responsibility she was destined to be born with, and Li Kesheng, who played with herself since she was a child and took care of herself.
Does she have the right to really like someone? ...... It was completely dark, and no one came to see Su Shi, let alone questioned Bai's plan, which was enough to show that everyone agreed, and now everyone was in a state of rest, and there was a big battle to be fought tomorrow.
The Su family army will pull out the teeth of a tiger under the enemy who has several times the strength, and it is obviously not possible to have enough spirit.
Su Shi slept very early, and tomorrow he will replace Ji Zhu as commander-in-chief. This is also what Jiju took the initiative to request.
The plan was proposed by Su Shi, and of course no one knew better than him how to implement it better. Su Shi slept very soundly, and did not have the slightest psychological pressure because of tomorrow's big war and tomorrow's heavy tasks.
In the evening, Lu Siqiao came to see it once as a Class A guard, and she could hear Su Shi's gentle snoring from a distance, so she left with confidence.
The next morning, the sky was clear, the sun had not yet risen, and a hearty breakfast was placed in front of everyone.
These are all done by the angels who got up more than an hour in advance. They worked as nurses after the war and as cooks before the war, which was actually very hard.
But they are not tired of it, because even if they are working hard, they are far inferior to the Su family soldiers who personally went into battle to kill the enemy, they are fighting with their lives.
