Everyone returned to Tokyo with a smile. Ling Zhen did not go back to his residence to pack anything, and directly followed Sun Lei and kept asking about gunpowder. Qinbei Pavilion
"Brother! Why did you have to go all night?"
Gongsun Sheng, Tang Bin, Jiao Ting, and Ma Lin were all very happy to see Sun Lei back. Sun Lei didn't come back all night, but they were worried.
"Let me introduce to you, this is brother Ling Zhen. He is nicknamed Hong Tianlei. He is an incredible gunner. He will also be our brother in Liangshan from now on."
Sun Lei introduced Ling Zhen to everyone with a smile.
"My brother went there to look for someone again. He didn't even take Tieniu with him for fun. He was being partial!"
Li Kui complained. He felt that Sun Lei must have taken a few people out to play all night while he was drunk.
"You are as drunk as a dead pig and you still want to go out?"
Sun Lei looked at Li Kui and said.
"Brother can wake me up!"
Li Kui refused to give up.
"Okay, brother hasn't slept all night, so don't mess around!"
Shi Qian looked at Li Kui and said, they haven't rested since yesterday. Sun Lei even tested the gunpowder skills with Ling Zhen. They must be very tired now.
After hearing this, Li Kui could only retreat with a sigh.
"It's been two days of exhaustion. Let's take a good rest first."
Sun Lei also felt sleepy, and smiled and said to a few people. Unexpectedly, he didn't sleep well on the first night in Tokyo. It seemed that the journey would not be smooth.
In the afternoon.
Xiao Jiasui and Wen Huanzhang came back with gloomy expressions.
"Commander Xiao, Commander Wen, what's going on? What happened?"
Seeing that the two men looked ugly, Ma Lin asked quickly. The two military advisors went out to visit friends yesterday and only came back this afternoon. Their faces were still so ugly. This was obviously something serious.
"Where's my brother?"
Xiao Jiasui asked.
"Brother also went out for the night. He just came back and fell asleep not long ago. By the way, brother also brought back a good man, Hong Tianlei Lingzhen. I heard that he used to be the deputy gunner of Jia Zhanku."
Ma Lin replied.
"Brother Xiao, we don't have to rush. We can talk about it after brother has rested."
Wen Huanzhang looked at Xiao Jiasui and said.
"That's right, this matter can't be rushed."
Xiao Jiasui sighed.
"The two strategists must be tired too. The room at the back has been tidied up. Why not go and rest first. When my brother wakes up, I will inform the two strategists."
Ma Lin didn't know what happened, but seeing that Xiao Jiasui and Wen Huanzhang looked like they hadn't slept all night, he spoke.
The sky gradually darkened, and Sun Lei woke up with a yawn. This time he woke up full of energy.
"Ma Lin? What's the matter?"
Pushing open the door, Sun Lei saw Ma Lin waiting outside the door and asked with some confusion.
"Brother, the two military advisors are back. It seems that there is something important. I will inform the two military advisors right away."
Ma Lin looked at Sun Lei and said.
"Is there something important? Next time if there is something urgent, just wake me up."
Sun Lei nodded.
Arriving at the hall, Sun Lei sat down and some of his subordinates had already served him wine and food.
"The two military advisors haven't eaten either, so let's eat together."
Sun Lei smiled and greeted Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang and Ma Lindao who came out together.
Because Sun Lei woke up, Gongsun Sheng, Lu Zhishen, Tang Bin, Li Kui, Shi Qian, and Ling Zhen also came out. Sitting together was like a dinner party.
"What do the two military advisors have to say?"
Seeing Xiao Jiasui and Wen Huanzhang's expressions of confusion, Sun Lei asked.
"Brother, I'm afraid what you talked about the day before yesterday is really coming!"
Wen Huanzhang cupped his fists at Sun Lei and said with a wry smile.
"Tell me more about it?"
Sun Lei looked at Wen Huanzhang and asked.
"Yesterday, I went to visit my former classmate, who is now the current dynasty, Su Taiwei. During the banquet, I asked about things in the north. Su Taiwei said some things, including the fact that Tong Guan had recently spoken to the emperor about joining forces with the newly rising Jurchens. Destroy the Liao Kingdom and recover the sixteen states of Yanyun."
Wen Huanzhang said.
Taiwei Su was kind and generous, and he treated others in a friendly manner. When he saw his classmates coming, he started to talk about anything when he got drunk. Anyway, in the eyes of Taiwei Su, Wen Huanzhang was just a scholar in the field, so it didn't matter what he said. He was just bragging. .
"So fast?"
Sun Lei was also a little surprised. Tong Guan's reaction was quick enough. The Jurchens had just gained some momentum, so Tong Guan had an idea so quickly?
"Brother, this Tong Guan has been resisting the Liao Kingdom and Xixia in the border army all year round. He has planted many informants in the Liao Kingdom. His information is far beyond our reach. My younger brother also found out some. There is a Liao man named Ma Zhi. I took refuge with Tong Guan a few years ago, and Tong Guan arranged for Ma Zhi to work as a spy in the Liao Kingdom. Not long ago, Ma Zhi suddenly returned to Tong Guan in Tokyo, and now serves as Secretary Cheng, and was named Zhao Liangsi by the emperor."
Xiao Jiasui said that he and Wen Huanzhang went out yesterday just to inquire about the situation of Liao Kingdom and the newly rising Jurchens. Unexpectedly, things turned out to be far worse than they expected.
"Ma Zhi? Zhao Liangsi?"
Sun Lei looked at Xiao Jia doubtfully.
"Brother, in the first year of Zhenghe, Tong Guan went to Liao as an envoy. At that time, Ma Zhi was just a scholar in Yanjing. He was eloquent but could not be reused by Liao. So he surrendered to Tong Guan and told all the truth and falsehoods of Liao. Tong Guan, he was the one who proposed this alliance with the Jurchens to destroy the Liao Dynasty. And Tong Guan was so happy that he would not give up on the unparalleled achievement of destroying the Liao Dynasty and regaining the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun. The two hit it off right away..."
Xiao Jiasui said, he had known Guiwei for a long time. It was already very eye-catching for a Liao man to become the secretary-general when he first arrived in Tokyo. And this Liao man was also named Zhao Liangsi by the emperor. There was no way he could hide his past deeds. Live.
"Emperor Zuo of the Liao Kingdom rejected loyalty, indulged in licentiousness, indulged in hunting, and cited small groups, which led to the rise of thieves, the desolation of the people, and the collapse of the clan. It seems to be true, this guy and Zhao Ji are like sleeping dragons and phoenixes, two A born loser."
Sun Lei smiled and said, Zhao Ji and Yelu Yanxi are really like brothers, and trash is always strikingly similar.
"Brother, Ma Zhi suddenly returned to Tokyo and served as secretary-general. He should have offered advice to Zhao Ji."
Wen Huanzhang said solemnly.
"Military advisor, isn't this great! Make friends at a distance and attack at close range? This is what the military book says."
Tang Bin said, he didn't know much about strategy, but as an officer he had read military books. The Sixteenth State of Yanyun was a thorn in the flesh of all the soldiers of the Song Dynasty, and everyone wanted to take it back.
"Brother Tang Bin, that's not how the art of war works. It's really good to make friends at a distance and attack at close range, but that also requires weighing the strength of both sides. You need to know that the lips are broken and the teeth are cold!"
Wen Huanzhang sighed and said, Tang Bin's idea cannot be said to be wrong. This is a normal idea for ordinary generals. However, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. A real strategy must consider the overall situation. You must look far ahead and not just focus on the immediate future. Small profit.
"This...little brother doesn't understand!"
Tang Bin couldn't understand this. As an ordinary officer, he believed that there was nothing wrong with destroying the Liao Kingdom and regaining the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun. As for the lip-destroying teeth and the cold, they and the Liao Kingdom were enemies, not dependent on each other.
Next to him, Lu Zhishen also had the same idea as Tang Bin. He had fought against Xixia in the Western Army. If he could destroy Xixia, he wouldn't mind cooperating with people he didn't know. Then he would just divide Xixia. Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to get what they need? ?
As for Shi Qian, Jiao Ting, Ma Lin, and Ling Zhen, they didn't even understand this. They looked confused, as if they were listening to a book from heaven. Li Kui ate and drank and didn't even listen. Only Gongsun Sheng frowned and seemed to be thinking.
