Ji Tang

Chapter 1183 Liu Laoer’s thoughts!
The fire illuminated everyone's faces, and the mutton was being cooked in the iron pot. After sprinkling the spices and salt, the seductive smell made everyone swallow their saliva.

The mutton soup in the pot was buzzing like a charming little lady, making everyone forget the tense scene just now.

Snapped!
General Su Lie added a piece of dry firewood, and the firelight made his face flicker.

"Let's talk about whether we want to feed the big eaters something fierce."

Xue Wanche struggled in his eyes, but still gritted his teeth and said: "I don't agree!"

"Hmph, coward!"

Xue Li curled his lips, and the words that came out of his mouth made Xue Wanche almost explode.

"Okay, now is not the time to argue!"

Su Lie had a headache. The stones in the pit were smelly and hard. No one except the general could cure them.

"Brother Xue, I don't believe you don't understand the importance of stopping the cannibals and buying time for the Tang Dynasty. Although Xue Li takes risks, there is a certain possibility of success."

"Our mission is to slow down the advance of the Great Eclipses. Logically speaking, our task has been completed well. At least we have slowed down the Great Eclipses for at least a few months."

"But it's not enough, far from it!"

"Datang cannot afford to suffer too many losses in the Western Region. Once the losses are too heavy, even if it wins, it will give other ambitious people an opportunity to take advantage of it. This is definitely not what we want to see."

"If the Great Eclipse doesn't come to the Western Regions one day, we will have more confidence. Now the Great Eclipses are arrogant and arrogant. They seem to be full of momentum, but they are a little careless. The scouts just came to report that tonight due to the sudden heavy snowfall, the weather will The ground is freezing, and apart from necessary patrols, most of the cannibals have returned to the camp."

He glanced at the hopeful Xue Li and sighed: "I have to admit that tonight is indeed an opportunity."

"I wonder if you still remember the Battle of Mobei?"

He said with some nostalgia: "The same sudden heavy snowfall, the same sudden drop in temperature, and the same insensitivity of the enemy! If Duke Wei hadn't taken the opportunity to attack, and rushed thousands of miles, and sent the general to penetrate deep alone, where would the great victory in Mobei have come from?"

"Yes, it was dangerous that time. If you were not careful, the entire army would be wiped out. But have you ever thought about the consequences if you miss the opportunity?"

"There is no war that is not dangerous. In my opinion, if you have a [-]% chance of winning, it is worth trying. If you have a [-]% chance of winning, you must go all out. If you have a [-]% or [-]% chance of victory, you will definitely win. On the contrary, a [-]% battle is the most dangerous."

He looked at the two of them and said solemnly: "I can definitely give it a try. No matter whether it succeeds or not, we have tried our best. It is better than retreating to the end like this."

Xue Wanche sighed: "Why don't I know what you are talking about? But we can't take risks easily. We haven't fought against the cannibal yet, so it's okay to win. But have you ever thought about what will happen if we lose?"

Before Su Lie could speak, he said excitedly: "Once defeated, our army's morale will be greatly reduced. Is this a result you want to see?"

"Call me a coward? Damn it, you were still in your mother's womb when I was fighting on the battlefield. Why do you call me a coward?"

This was said to Xue Li. Xue Li wanted to refute, but Su Lie glared back and could only say nothing!

"If it had been when I was young, would you have said this? It would have been just death, it's not a big deal. But it's not possible now."

"My death is not a big deal. Once it affects the morale of the army, I will never redeem myself!"

The scene fell silent. Su Lie was rolling the mutton and didn't know what to say for a moment.Xue Li has Xue Li's principles, and Xue Wanche also has his persistence. This is going to be difficult!
"Harm~"

Xue Wanche stood up irritably and walked back and forth a few steps. He was hesitant now, but he had to make a decision now, otherwise the team would have to disperse!

"Any news from Dashi Camp?" Xue Wanche suddenly asked.

Su Lie and Xue Li were stunned and did not react.

"Are you stupid? I'm asking you something!"

"Oh, according to the report from the scouts, there are no patrols within a three-mile radius of the Dashi Camp tonight. It seems that they are very confident and don't take the Tocharians seriously at all!"

"In addition, there are bright lights behind their camp. If you guess correctly, they are building siege equipment overnight."

"It will definitely be a fierce battle tomorrow!"

Build siege engines?Xue Wanche was stunned for a moment, but then his eyes flashed and he looked at Su Lie.

At this moment, the two of them also looked over, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes!

"Tell me, if we burn down their craftsman camp, will Seld go crazy?"

The three of them looked at each other, but the fire in their hearts grew stronger and stronger.

Xue Wanche's face changed with uncertainty. He knew that once a decision was made, the rest would be out of their control.But what if the cannibal craftsman camp was burned down?

Damn, this is a bit tempting!

"Ha~"

bang~
He picked up a bowl of hot mutton soup and drank it all in one gulp, then threw the bowl on the ground and cursed: "Damn it, you did it!"

Su Lie and Xue Li looked at each other, finished the mutton soup, and said loudly: "Done!"

Now that the decision has been made, the next step must be carefully planned.

They immediately sent out scouts to carefully attack the camp with arrows, observe the opponent's movements, and report immediately if there were any changes!In addition, the army was ordered to get ready.

In order to replenish the strength of the soldiers, they killed a hundred sheep and let the soldiers have a feast.

After the military order was issued, the camp suddenly became lively.

Xue Wanche went to restrain the soldiers and prepare things.Su Lie and Xue Lize began to discuss what to do next.From what direction do you attack and to what extent do you attack?

If it is an enemy trap, how should they break out, etc., all possible situations must be thought out in advance to avoid being in a hurry when the time comes.

It wasn't until late at night that the soldiers finished cleaning up, and the two of them had almost finished their discussion.

Xue Wanche breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the two people's plan. As long as the plan was followed, even if an accident occurred, the maximum strength could be preserved.

"set off!"

, without saying much, now is the time to race against time, how can we have time to say anything else?Except for a few soldiers who were left behind, all 800 million Tang Dynasty cavalry were dispatched and slowly approached the Dashi camp.

It was very windy and snowy tonight. They didn't feel it in the valley, but when they walked out of the valley, the strong wind was like a knife blowing on everyone's faces.

But such a sight did not make the three of them flinch at all, but they were all overjoyed.

The worse the weather gets at this point, the more likely it is that their plan will come true.It would be troublesome if the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. If you were not careful, you might be noticed by the other party! ——
In the General's Mansion in Bagua City, Ji Song was suddenly awakened from his sleep.Liu Laoer, who was guarding outside, hurriedly came in and said nervously: "Master, are you okay?"

"It's okay!" He pointed to the kettle on the table. Liu Laoer quickly took it over, poured a glass of warm water and handed it over.

Gollum!

After drinking it all, Ji Song said with some fear: "I dreamed about Xue Li and the others. The child was covered in blood and kept smiling at me."

"You, this is what you think about every day and what you dream about every night. Don't worry. You don't know what that kid's ability is? Even compared to you back then, it's not much different. It'll be fine."

"I hope so!"

When he woke up at this time, he was no longer sleepy, so he asked Liu Laoer to get a wheelchair, and the two of them left the room.

He was covered with thick snow leopard skin. This was a pure white snow leopard. By chance, it was hunted by soldiers and given to him.

It's hard for him to refuse the soldier's intention. To be honest, wearing this thing on his body is like being in a stove, not to mention how warm it is.

As soon as this incident came out, how could the veteran generals, who had been idle for a long time, still sit still?Without saying a word, he took his soldiers into the mountains to hunt.

Not to mention, in addition to large animals such as snow leopards, there are really many good things in this mountain, such as ibex, argali, brown bear, lynx, red deer, snow chicken, snow fox, etc. This will make you veterans Be happy and smile.

The furs of large animals are perfect as warm clothing, and the smell of red deer and snow chickens is also unique. The animals in the mountains are suffering.

But it doesn't matter to Ji Song. If it were left to future generations, he would be trending by some people, and he might even go to jail.But now?
The animals on the mountain are almost overrun. Without man-made destruction of the environment, this is a paradise for animals.What happened to killing a few?That is to eliminate harm for the people.

"The snow is so heavy tonight!"

Looking at the heavy snow that seemed to be falling down, he stretched out his hand to catch a few snowflakes. Looking at the slowly melting snowflakes, he was slightly in a trance.

"Yes, the weather in the Western Region is also strange. The sun was shining brightly in the morning, but it snowed so heavily this night. If this happens to Chang'an, it will cause disaster."

Thinking of the heavy snowfall in the early years of Zhenguan, Liu Laoer still has lingering fears.Dozens of counties in Guanzhong are all covered with heavy snow, roads are impassable, and news cannot get out. People staying in Chang'an feel like they are on an isolated island. The depressing feeling is really uncomfortable.

"Do you think we can win this battle?"

"can!"

"I will definitely win!"

Liu Laoer stopped and cut the railway line.

"Oh? So confident?" Ji Song was a little dumbfounded.

"It's not that I, Old Liu, am confident, but that I have great confidence in you."

He said seriously: "I, Old Liu, have fought many fierce battles with you over the years. What kind of battles have I not seen? Some time ago, the Turks sent out hundreds of thousands of cavalry, and everyone was frightened. But now we are not fighting for Shall we build a city?"

He said nonchalantly: "Anyway, as long as you are here, there is nothing in this world that can stop you!"

"Haha, you are more open-minded than me!"

Smiling, he felt a little dumbfounded.Since when have I become your source of confidence?I don’t even have that much confidence!
Think of the destroyed Persian dynasty, then think of the crippled Byzantine Empire, and the defeated Eastern Roman Empire.As well as the Shulia area occupied by the Great Eclipse, plus Egypt already included.The current Dashi is no worse than the Tang Dynasty. Whether it is population, economy, or army, they are all at a peak.

Although he is confident that he will not lose, there is no guarantee of war. A heavy snowfall, a storm, or a wrong decision may make Da Ye irreversible!

"It's time for you to enjoy your life after this battle. Have you ever thought about what to do when you go back? If you don't want to be idle, go to the academy. The garrison there has sent a captain. With your contributions over the years, His Majesty will not refuse. .”

"Don't go!"

But this guy shook his head like a rattle and said with an unhappy look on his face: "I'm not going anywhere. I, Lao Liu, have been following you since you were a child. I'm not used to leaving you. Anyway, I'm not going anywhere." Neither is going."

"No promise!"

He gave this guy a slap and said angrily: "What's the point of staying with me? Don't you think about your children? If you take the imperial examination in the future, your identity will be checked. Don't delay your children's future. "

"Be obedient. When you get back, ask your wife for your deed, and go to Haoji County to cancel it."

This guy has made a lot of achievements over the years. If it weren't for his status, he would be leading an army now.

Now that I am disabled, if I win this time, I will resign from all my official positions and go home to raise my grandson.But if you lose, there's nothing left to say.

Not only Lao Liu, but also Da Niu and others should make arrangements before they can rest assured.After following you for so many years, you can't let others have no end, right?

"Hehe, Madam already gave it to me!"

Liu Laoer chuckled, but what he said next almost made him angry to death.

"The old lady always gives us the deed between Daniu and me, but you also know that I am used to gambling a few times. When my hand itched, I almost lost myself. So, I went to the county government to sign it again."

"You are a fucking talent!"

Ji Song gritted his teeth angrily, this bastard, others were so eager to get into trouble, he actually got on the pole?

There's no one left!
Forget it, just do whatever you want, no matter what!
Liu Laoer carefully observed the owner of the house and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that he was not angry.

Let him get the deed back?It's a joke, don't even think about it.He is not a fool. There are countless people staring at his position. Once he leaves Ji's door, those brats will probably wake up laughing.

What happened to Ji's family?Others haven't had a chance yet, so he's not stupid.He would not do anything other than pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons.

Only old people like him know how big the Ji family is. It seems that the family has been separated, but he once saw a map in the head of the family's study. At first, he didn't know what the marks on it meant.

But when he accidentally found the whereabouts of those people who knew about the division of the family, he was completely numb. This damn thing was not a division of the family, it was clearly a feudal family.

There are branches of the Ji family in all the Central Plains, Lingnan, Shuzhong, Grassland, Liaodong, Western Regions, Tubo, and even Dashi, and the extreme western countries.

And they all changed their surnames. The surname is Cheng. Tao and Zhou are the three common surnames. After all, some people have named their own surnames, and they are directly the ancestors of their surnames.

There is a person whose surname is Si Nong, who is the head of the family who has risen up. Because the Chinese character for this generation in the family has the character wood in it, some people are directly called wood.There are also those who directly use their migration status as their surname, anyway, they have everything.

Counting this way, there are twenty or thirty surnames in the Ji family branch.

After one or two generations of this, it is estimated that except for those who know the details, no one else will connect these people with the main line of Haojie.

His biggest goal now is to let his eldest son marry a member of the Ji clan and then branch out to become a member of the Ji clan. This will not only connect him to the Ji clan, but also ensure the future of future generations.

It’s a joke, with the help of the major branches of the Ji family all over the Tang Dynasty, what are you afraid of?It is impossible to weaken.

Looking at the silly Liu Laoer, Ji Song was a little confused, shook his head and ignored it.
