Liu Mingzhi walked into the study muttering, and Song Qing was still lying on the sand table muttering something to himself.
Hearing the footsteps behind him, Song Qing said "Come back" without looking back.
However, he put his mind on the sand table.
Liu Mingzhi glanced at Song Qing's back, shook his head and walked towards the chair.
"Aren't you tired of staring at the sand table every day and forgetting to eat and sleep, thinking of countermeasures? You make yourself as busy as the Generalissimo who orders the three armies. It's really your fault."
Song Qing planted the small flag in his hand at a mountain stream on the sand table, stood up, patted the dust on his hands and sighed silently.
"It's because I'm not a military marshal that I can spend all my time here studying the sand table. As long as I can lead troops on an expedition, do you think I'm willing to stare at this crap every day?
After all, we don’t have this opportunity! "
Liu Mingzhi put the stack of information in his hand on the desk, took out the fire stick and lit the candle beside it.
"The overall situation has been decided. Can sighing change anything? If you can't go, just don't go. Isn't it sweet for him to hold his wife in his arms and live his idle life every day?"
"You think now is still the time when we just got married, and we are tired of being together all day long and it's hard to leave. Your body can't bear it.
To be honest, my heart is itching and tight. I know that after I leave seclusion, I can get credit easily, but I can only watch but can't do anything.
You said that if I lead the army this time, after the world is unified, I will be awarded the title of a county king with a different surname for my merits!
This is a matter of honoring the ancestors and having a prominent lintel. How can I not be jealous?
It's better now. The bones that stayed behind all day are all falling apart and it's useless.
This is no different from having a naked beauty in front of you, knowing that you can only look at her and can't do anything with her.
Do you think my old man's job as Minister of the Ministry of War for so many years has been in vain? It's okay if he can't get the position of vanguard general, but he has to work as an errand in the vanguard battalion.
As a result, there was not even a single hair on my head.
Alas, what a pity! "
Liu Mingzhi took out a piece of information and took it in his hand. He glanced at Song Qing who was leaning on the sand table and sighing. He recalled the conversation with Song Yu before leaving Beijing.
"Don't complain about uncle. Maybe uncle has tried his best to fight for you, but in the end he failed because of me. I don't blame uncle for this. Who makes your relationship with me and this young master extraordinary!
Besides, what happened to the title of king? Is it good to be crowned king?
Except for the more noble title, everything else is no different from the Duke of the Kingdom.
The prince can live his whole life without worries about food and clothing, and enjoy all the glory and wealth, so why do you have to be crowned king? If there is no other way, I would like to change places with you and become a prince who is a very human minister, instead of the one he is now. The word King of Side by Side. "
Song Qing gave Young Master Liu a roll of his eyes: "Hey, you are eating meat and you still dislike the dirty meat."
"A dog bites Lu Dongbin. He doesn't know a good heart and is too lazy to pay attention to you."
Young Master Liu replied angrily to Song Qing, and turned his attention to the information in his hand, looking at the candlelight beside him.
Song Qing wanted to refute something, but when he saw Young Master Liu looking like he was dealing with business, he muttered a few words, turned around and stared at the sand table again to think.
The study suddenly became quiet, with only the rustling of pages being turned over, mixed with the sound of bamboo poles rubbing against the sand table.
The information gradually decreased, and Liu Mingzhi's dull expression gradually became serious, with a faint doubt hanging between his eyebrows.
As expected, the Kingdom of Jin was speeding up the construction of defensive fortifications and strengthening the walls of various state capitals, waiting for the arrival of the dragon's troops.
It's just that the Jin Kingdom seems to have abandoned the border towns that suffered heavy artillery damage in the last war, and concentrated its main forces on the cities behind for defense.
This layout puzzled Liu Mingzhi.
Even though the twelve major cities in Jin Kingdom's southern frontier suffered heavy losses under his fierce attack last year, in terms of city size, fortification strength, and the number of soldiers and horses that could be garrisoned, they still far exceeded some cities in the hinterland.
It can be said that as long as the Jin Kingdom garrisoned heavy troops in the twelve main cities, the difficulties caused to Dalong Bingfeng would still be several times greater than garrisoning some intact inner cities in the hinterland.
Although he couldn't figure out the intentions of the Queen and Wanyan Chizha for the moment, Liu Mingzhi also knew in his heart that the Queen and the others must have their own plans for doing this, otherwise they would never make such an unreasonable arrangement.
At least I could follow the layout of the Queen on the Jin side, but the behavior of my junior brother on the Turk side made me completely confused.
There is no idea at all.
Looking at all the Turkic information, the most mentioned thing is cattle herding.
In a situation where the army is pressing down on the border, soldiers and horses from various Turkic tribes, large and small, are still nomadic and herding cattle without any sense of crisis. Isn't this nonsense?
However, it seems nonsense, but the fact is as stated in the intelligence report.
The various Turkic tribes were literally herding cattle.
This made Young Master Liu really confused at all.
The Turkic grasslands stretch as far as the eye can see for thousands of miles. Naturally, they do not need to defend the city like the Jin Kingdom. Wherever the cavalry goes, it is a battlefield.
Precisely because there are no natural barriers in the city to block the dragon's front, it is even more important to make timely arrangements and select the terrain familiar to the Turkic cavalry for deployment.
It is only reasonable behavior to use the favorable geographical situation to block the fierce offensive of the dragon.
What the hell is it like to herd cattle leisurely?
Don’t you take Dalong’s million-strong army seriously?
Or give up on yourself and wait to perish?
Damn it, based on her understanding of her junior brother, she is not such a person at all.
"Brother!"
Song Qing, who was staring at the sand table in deep thought, stood up and looked at Liu Mingzhi's words: "What are you doing?"
"Come and take a look at these contents, and accompany me to refer to their purpose."
"What is it that you still can't understand?"
Liu Mingzhi hesitated for a moment: "Regarding the Jin Kingdom, the Turks' current defensive deployment."
Song Qing's eyes lit up, and he suddenly became interested. He excitedly gave Young Master Liu a thumbs up.
"Awesome, brother, I was worried about how to make predictions about the next advance because I didn't know the strategic plans of the two countries, Jin and Turkmenistan. Dongfeng is coming to you, it's just perfect."
Song Qing consciously picked up the information that Young Master Liu had put aside and started reading it.
The candlelight flickered, and crackling sounds were heard from time to time.
After a long time, Song Qing put down the pile of information in his hand with a strange look on his face, sat on the chair opposite Young Master Liu, held his chin in his hands, and began to ponder.
"How's it going? What did you see?"
"The Kingdom of Jin has the intention of abandoning the twelve main cities and retreating to the inner city to block it. Although it is a bit of a waste of time, it is commendable that it is carrying out an intensive layout.
Although I can't figure out the deeper meaning for the moment, I can also see Jin Guo's intention.
But what kind of tricks are the Turks doing here? They are herding cattle under the critical situation of the army. Isn't this a little girl visiting a brothel? It's just a joke!
Are you sure the authenticity of this information? "
Liu Mingzhi frowned slightly and pondered for a moment, then nodded solemnly remembering that Suzaku had never made a mistake.
"Nine times out of ten, we can confirm the authenticity of the information."
Song Qing looked at Young Master Liu suspiciously, raised his hand to rub the stubble on his chin and muttered.
"Could it be that your good junior brother... well... your good junior sister intends to recognize the current situation as a hero, is ready to abandon her weapons and surrender, and donate the fat cattle and sheep to the army?" Dalong, do you want to surrender?"
"You're the one talking nonsense. Do you think it's possible?"
"Unlikely, then what do you think the Turks are planning to do? Have a full meal before they die? There are so many cows, they won't be able to finish them even to the death!"
Young Master Liu was so angry that he put the information into a drawer: "If I could figure it out, I would let you use it as a reference."
Song Qing spread his hands and shrugged playfully: "If you can't figure it out, just wait and see what happens!"
"You said just now that I have enough to eat, but now you are paying more attention to the situation of the Northern Expedition than anyone else.
I'm afraid even Marshal Yun and the others don't have this information.
Now that you have stayed out of the matter, you are still so concerned about this Northern Expedition.
I think you don't want to make suggestions for Mr. Yun and others, but you want to speculate on the situation that niece Yue'er and sister-in-law Wanyan will encounter based on the battle situation!
If niece Yue'er and sister-in-law Wanyan encounter an irreversible crisis, you won't plan to personally come forward to participate in the Northern Expedition to bring them mother and daughter out of the predicament, right? "
Liu Mingzhi pursed his lips twice and nodded without saying a word.
Song Qing stared blankly for a long time, then leaned forward and took off the tobacco bag from Liu Dashao's waist.
After a pause, Song Qing looked at Young Master Liu with a puff of smoke.
"As I said before, if you really take that step, say hello in advance and give me a chance to reconcile with your sister-in-law."
"If it really comes to that point, there's actually no need for you to get involved."
"Alas... Ling Yang left early. I don't want to lose your brother again, so I have to leave...
We brothers go on the road together, and we have a companion on the road to hell. "
Liu Mingzhi stared at Song Qing's heavy face, his eyes a little blurry.
"Eldest brother, second brother, he...he...
If he has a soul in heaven, he will definitely be happy to have you as a good big brother. "
"I hope so, two brothers in one life will be worth dying for!"
"Brother, do you think people will be resurrected after death?"
"Ouch...cough cough cough...cough cough...fuck..."
Song Qing slapped the tobacco shreds from his clothes on the ground.
"Are you fucking confused? How can a dead person be resurrected?
It seems like Chengzhi’s nephew’s affairs have put you under a lot of pressure.
Let's go, we are working in Zuichunlou. I heard that some beautiful and beautiful servants have arrived. Brother, let's take a treat and let's relax. We'll stay up all night! "
"No, haven't you been staying in the study studying the sand table? Why did you hear about the Zui Chun Tower in the city?"
"Oh, man, isn't it natural to pay attention to the affairs of the brothel?
No matter how big a deal it is, what’s so good about a man having a lot of sex? Okay? "
"I'm sorry, okay. Where did you learn this? You don't do the same..."
The king of heaven overshadows the tiger of earth? A library? CD? Study materials? Dongguan? "
"What are you talking about? Those Western ghosts that Jiang He brought back saw me all day long in Fangshi. I don't know what it means, but I will inevitably remember it after hearing it every day.
Are you going or not? If you don't go, I'll go by myself! "
"go!"
