Water Margin people

Chapter 318
"Recovering the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun is certainly a good thing, but at this time the Liao Kingdom has shown signs of decline, and it is unwise to unite with a stronger enemy."

Gongsun Sheng said, he has been in Yanyun sixteen prefectures for many years, and he is very clear about the situation there. The decline of Liao Kingdom since Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi ascended the throne is inevitable. This is an excellent thing for Song Dynasty. The alliance of Chanyuan for more than 100 years is finally going to bring down the Liao Kingdom. At this time, helping the Jurchen rise and destroy the Liao Kingdom is not leading the wolf into the house.

Sun Lei listened to the words of Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang, and Gongsun Sheng with satisfaction. He also agreed with Tang Bin's words. Everyone is good at different things and sees them differently.

Tang Bin only sees what is in front of him and is suitable for leading the army; Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang, and Gongsun Sheng have a long-term vision and are more suitable for making plans and coordinating the overall situation.

What Liang Shanbo lacks in the original book is long-term vision. Song Jiang is just a petty official who only understands the insidious methods of petty officials. After a little bit of sweetness, Song Jiang and others were so fascinated that they couldn't find the north.

In the original book, Liangshan fought in all directions, made countless meritorious deeds, and suffered heavy casualties in the end. Song Jiang exchanged the lives of so many brothers for a doctor of martial arts, who was also the comfort envoy of Chuzhou and the chief of the army and horses. This official was poisoned to death within a few days. up.This is the fate of short-sighted people, who are played by smart people.

"Ha ha!"

Sun Lei thought that he now had three military advisers to help him make plans and analyze the situation, so he couldn't help laughing, and the pressure was relieved immediately, and he felt relaxed for a while.

"Why are you laughing, brother?"

Wen Huanzhang looked puzzled at Sun Lei who suddenly laughed.

"I am very happy that I have three military advisers to help me with my plans. As the several military advisers have seen, most of my Liangshan brothers are like this. They are all heroes in fighting, but they are not as good when it comes to strategy."

"Recovering Yanyun is naturally a good thing, and it is also the dream of the warriors in the Central Plains for nearly 200 years, but don't forget that you need to be strong yourself to make iron. A Jurchen tribe in the Liao Kingdom that can be defeated, can the Song Dynasty really suppress it? United Jurchen Mie Liao is probably seeking skin from a tiger, thinking he is using the Jurchens, but in the end he will be threatened by the Jurchens again."

Sun Lei looked at Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang, Gongsun Sheng, Lu Zhishen, Tang Bin and others and said.

Lu Zhishen and Tang Bin remained silent. They knew exactly what was going on with the Song army, and it was even worse than the corrupt Liao people. How could they deal with the Jurchens who were as ferocious as jackals?Don't end up becoming a piece of meat in the jackal's mouth.

"Forgive me, my brother, I'm stupid!"

Tang Bin apologized to Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang, and Gongsun Sheng, saying that he really thought things too simply.

"Brother Tang Bin doesn't need to be like this. The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun are very important. It must be good if they can be taken back. With the sixteen prefectures and Yanshan as a barrier, the Central Plains will not have to worry about alien invasion. This is a good thing, but no one knows what is happening at this time. The consequences of doing it at this moment can be good or bad.”

Xiao Jiasui sighed and said, he didn't know if their worries were superfluous, but from what he heard, the court, from the emperor to the ministers, was very excited. Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures were not just as simple as recovering the country, but more The feats they need to shine forever are needed by the emperor, as well as civil servants and military generals, which is related to the interests of everyone in the court.

"It's mostly bad. Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Kingdom is the same as Huizong of the Great Song Dynasty. They are both stupid and innocent, but the heritage of the Liao Kingdom is still there, and the fighting power of the soldiers is far better than that of Zhao Song."

Gongsun Sheng said, he came from Yanyun, he knew the situation of the Liao Kingdom and the situation of the Song Dynasty, although the Liao Kingdom was unbearable, it was not something the Song Dynasty army could contend with.

"I only hate that the emperor is stupid, and the traitors and villains are rampant. Otherwise, how could a million troops not be able to deal with the Fanren!"

Lu Zhi sighed deeply. He was transferred from the Western Army to Kansai as a prefect, and later he abandoned his official position and became a wanted criminal. He also has a deep understanding of the army and the government. Most of them were framed by corrupt and treacherous ministers.

"Brothers, you can't rely on people alone in this war. The firearms of my younger brother can also turn things around..."

As soon as he mentioned the army fighting, Ling Zhen immediately said that his firearms can only exert their greatest power on the battlefield.

"What firearm? My broad ax is not vegetarian either!"

Li Kui has already had his fill. His brothers talk too profoundly, so he can't get in the conversation, but Ling Zhen can get in. He doesn't know what a firearm is, but when it comes to killing enemies in battle, his ax is unrivaled.

"Brother Li Kui, you only have a pair of sharp axes, and you can only kill enemies one by one. My cannon can kill enemies from ten miles away, and one shot will kill all of them!"

Ling Zhen said unconvinced, forget everything else, only artillery, he will not back down, now that he has the gunpowder secretary taught by Sun Lei, the power of this artillery has greatly increased, and he has full confidence in his performance on the battlefield.

"Let's go, you carry the cannon and compare with my axe!"

Seeing the tone of the newcomer, Li Kui instantly dissatisfied, and wanted to compete with Ling Zhen with an ax in hand.

"Okay, stop making trouble!"

Sun Lei stopped Li Kui and Ling Zhen, and the serious atmosphere was relieved by the two people's arguing.

"This matter needs to be discussed in the long term. Let's observe one or two things first. It is not a matter of a day or two for Zhao Ji and Tong Guan to form an alliance with Jurchen. After all, there is still Liao Kingdom between Song Ting and Jurchen. It's not easy, let alone form an alliance?"

Sun Lei said, he remembered that the Song and Jin Dynasties had a sea alliance, and it seemed that they sailed directly from Dengzhou to Liaodong. When going from Tokyo to Dengzhou, they must pass through Liangshanbo, and there can be fuss about it.

"Brother is right. Although the Liao Kingdom is miserable, nothing will happen in the next few years. We still have some time."

Gongsun Sheng said, no matter what happens, the Liao Kingdom cannot be destroyed in an instant. They are already prepared now, so they don't need to worry too much.

"What Daoist Gongsun said is very true. We are too nervous."

Xiao Jiasui and Wen Huanzhang cupped their hands.

"When we return to Liangshan and develop well, if Zhao Song can't be relied on, then we can only rely on ourselves."

Sun Lei said with a smile that he didn't know much about wars, but he knew that the Jurchens had only 500 people in Wanyan Aguda, and with this number of people, they fought for ten years and destroyed the Liao Kingdom, and then went south to destroy the Northern Song Dynasty in an instant.

Sun Lei now has dozens of leaders in Liangshan and tens of thousands of followers. Given him ten years, he doesn't believe that he will be no match for any Jurchen. Just like Ling Zhenna Cannon, he vigorously guides the development for ten years, and it will not be a big problem to level this era.As a time traveler, there are many ways to open the "eye of the sky" a little bit.

"Come on, the two military advisers have worked hard, drink!"

Sun Lei raised his wine bowl and said to Xiao Jiasui and Wen Huanzhang, it was really hard work for them to inquire about the news all night.

"Thank you brother!"

Xiao Jiasui and Wen Huanzhang toasted and said that it was much easier to say what was in their hearts. Sun Lei's confidence also infected them. Maybe they could not change the court side, but Sun Lei's Liangshan was the stage for them to display their ambitions.
