Chapter 46: Big Plan

Wu Ji's words were so amazing. Wang Shao, Zhou Wei, Lin Hong and others all opened their eyes wide and looked at Wu Ji in surprise.

"Brother Wu, you don't have any ideas, right?" Wang Shao was stunned for a moment before asking.

"We have to talk about this." Wu Ji walked over and sat down. Zhou Wei hurriedly poured a cup and handed it to Wu Ji, urging: "Brother Wu, tell me quickly."

"What do you mean?" Wu Ji took the teacup, took a sip, and asked back.

"What else can it be? Of course it is the earth-shaking event you said." Zhou Wei was very angry.

"This is something." Wu Ji said slowly: "I was going to say it, but when I fist fist flickered, I was scared. Where did I start?"

Everyone understood that Wu Ji took this opportunity to threaten them. Just now, in order to get the war horse, they did not hesitate to threaten them. Now that Wu Ji has seized the opportunity, it would be strange if he doesn't turn around.

"Brother Wu, if you don't say anything, we will really rob you." Zhou Wei was not a person who was easily threatened. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to show off his power.

"Yes! Who told you to get rich?" Lin Hong started to cheer.

"Give us all the war horses and don't bother with you." Wang Shao also joined.

"I understand, I understand." Wu Ji leaned back, looked at Wang Shao, and smiled, "It turns out that Wang Shumi was also afraid of Liao Gou, so he had to rob me."

Wang Shao rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Brother Wu, don't use the provocation method, it will be useless to me. I command hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and I have encountered countless provocation methods, and I have not been fooled yet."

With Wang Shao's talent, it is not so easy to be fooled.

"I'm not provoking the generals, but telling the truth." Wu Ji said tit-for-tat: "The brothers of the Converted Army fought hard and finally got some gains, so you nailed it. Those who have some kind of robbed to the Liao territory, there are war horses there, and you want as many as you want. You dare not go to the Liao territory to rob, and you are targeting me. Are you afraid of Liao dogs?"

Zhou Wei opened his mouth and was about to speak, but he blocked Wu Ji: "Don't say you don't have a chance. There are opportunities. If I lead two thousand converts army, I dare to travel thousands of miles across the Liao territory. You ten thousand elite troops in Xiongzhou, won't you say you don't have this power? The reason for this is that you didn't plan to do it."

“…”

Zhou Wei opened his mouth for a long time and didn't say a word. In terms of military strength, the Xiongzhou Army had 10,000 people, several times that of the Huixin Army. The Huixin Army dared to go deep into the Liao territory to plunder, but the Xiongzhou Army had never done it, because Zhou Wei did not intend to do this.

The generals of the Song Dynasty had rigid thinking and were not brave enough. Although Zhou Wei was a good general, he was still the case. Wu Ji's words were so important that Zhou Wei could not be speechless.

"Brother Wu, you want to strengthen our hearts. Don't worry, I, Wang Shao, are not brave enough, nor are they small. If I really have a chance, I will do it!" Wang Shao understood Wu Ji's intention and made the decision on the spot.

"Okay, I'll just say it." Wu Ji stood up, came to the map, and slapped the Yanyun Land on the map with his right hand, saying, "This is Yanyun Land. My biggest feeling this time when I went to Liao territory is that the people here are concerned about their homeland, regard the Song Dynasty as orthodox, and hope that the king's army will go north and recover the Yanyun Land in one fell swoop. If the Song Dynasty sends troops, we will use it well and will definitely get the support of the people. With the support of the people, it will be much easier to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun."

It is different from seeing with your own eyes. Wu Ji had long heard that the people in Yanyun land regarded the Song Dynasty as orthodox, but when he went deep into the Liao territory and saw with your own eyes, he felt particularly deep.

Next, Wu Ji talked about the Khitans who had seen with his own eyes that he bullied the people. He heard Wang Shao, Zhou Wei, Lin Hong and others gritted their teeth.

"We have also heard a lot of these things, but it still makes people angry when Brother Wu said." Wang Shao clenched his fists, exerted too hard, and the back of his hands turned a little blue. He sighed and said, "We all blame the court for not recovering the land of Yanyun, causing the people to die!"

After a brief pause, he continued: "It is precisely because of this that the officials have the ambition to defeat Liao and destroy Western Xia and unify China. We should work hard!"

"We should work hard!" The generals agreed in unison, very excited.

The Song people did not have blood, but their bloodiness did not inspire the Song Dynasty and were not useful.

"For more than a hundred years, the Song army has not yet entered the Liao territory to carry out plunder. This time, my actions will definitely anger Yelu Hongji, and he will definitely fight back. This is our opportunity." Wu Ji slapped the map with a heavy hand and said loudly.

"How could this be an opportunity?" Zhou Wei asked loudly.

Wang Shao didn't say anything, just raised his eyebrows, and he didn't quite understand, but he didn't ask.

"In the battle of Xiongzhou, the Liao Kingdom was defeated, and Yelu Hongji endured it. I robbed the monies of the year, and the Liao Kingdom also endured it. However, as soon as this happened, Yelu Hongji must be unable to sit still. As for the reason, it was very simple." Wu Ji grabbed his finger and began to calculate: "We set out from Conversion, passed here and entered the Liao territory. First we robbed the horse farm, and then divided the troops. Here, there are no less than ten places to patronize us. Then we return to Song territory from here and back to Conversion. How long is this journey? It is no less than two thousand miles."

The tone turned higher: "Traveling two thousand miles in Liao territory, this has not been seen in the history of Liao Kingdom. This is much more serious than the defeat of Xiongzhou. This shows a problem. The mobility of the Song army is no longer below the Liao Kingdom. Besides, our combat power is unparalleled, even the Pishi army is not our opponent. Yelu Hongji would think that the Song army is already approaching the forward army. How terrible the former army was, the Khitans have not forgotten it. During the Wu Zetian period, a partial army almost destroyed the Khitans, and they shrank for hundreds of years and did not dare to appear. If the Song army had the combat power of the previous army, then this would be a disaster for the Liao Kingdom."

Everyone nodded constantly. They had heard of many deeds about the terror of the Tang army.

"The Song Dynasty has more than 100 million people, and the Song Dynasty's silver and money are several times that of the previous dynasty. The Song Dynasty also has developed skills. Once these things play a role, it is not a problem to build a terrifying army like the previous dynasty." Wu Ji's tone was even higher and said: "The reason why the Song Dynasty suppressed the Liao Kingdom was because these advantages were not exerted. This time the Converted Army crossed two thousand miles across the Liao territory. Yelu Hongji would definitely think that the Song Dynasty was approaching the forward dynasty, and our sleeping vitality was being excavated. Once all of them were dug out, what was waiting for the Liao Kingdom would be destroyed. Yelu Hongji would definitely set up a large army to attack us. We must prepare early."

After Wu Ji's explanation, everyone suddenly realized and nodded, agreeing very much.

"Brother Wu, you still have a deep view. I just thought that Yelu Hongji would send troops to invade the territory, but I didn't expect that there were so many ways." Wang Shao touched his chin and his eyes were lit up.

"If it weren't for Brother Wu's analysis, how could I have thought there would be so many mystery." Zhou Wei followed suit.

The terrible Tang Dynasty, needless to say, was a nightmare for the Khitans. Although the Song Dynasty was suppressing the Liao Kingdom, it did not mean that it had no potential. On the contrary, the Song Dynasty had infinite potential. Once its strength was exerted, it would be far beyond that of the Liao Kingdom. If that were the case, what would be waiting for the Liao Kingdom would be destruction and there would be no other result.

With Yelu Hongji's shrewdness, he would definitely not watch the Song Dynasty become stronger and would definitely take this opportunity to kill the Song Dynasty in the cradle, and a war is inevitable.

"Brother Wu, if the Liao Kingdom launches a large number of troops, it will be difficult for us to deal with. How can you say it is a chance?" Lin Hong asked.

What he asked was exactly what everyone was thinking, looking at Wu Ji and waiting for Wu Ji to answer.

"This is obvious." Wu Ji's face turned red and he smiled, saying, "You think it will take a long time for Yelu Hongji to launch a large army invasion, right?"

"It will definitely take a long time. They have to mobilize the army, transport food and grass, and mobilize war horses. It will not be completed within three or four months." Wang Shao is a big expert in this area, and he said it in one sentence.

"This is our opportunity." Wu Ji continued: "You think that for such a long time, the Liao army could not be concentrated in one place, and would be scattered across the border. As soon as the Liao army arrived, we would take action to attack the Liao territory first, annihilate the Liao army, defeat the Liao army, and burn the food and grass that can be burned, and make a big fuss."

"It's a good opportunity!" Wang Shao's eyes were so bright that he was very excited, and he said, "If you fight, the preparation time is long. The army cannot be concentrated together. It is inevitable to disperse. Only when you arrive at the border will you concentrate. This will have a chance. If we go deep into the Liao territory and with the support of the Yanyun people, we will really gain a lot."

"There is another important thing. Yelu Hongji must have never imagined that we would have such courage." Zhou Wei also understood and shouted loudly.

Even though Yelu Hongji was extremely smart, he would not have thought that the Song army would dare to stroke his tiger beard and attack the army he mobilized. If Wang Shao made up his mind, it would really give Yelu Hongji a huge surprise.

"If we don't start first, and as before, let the Liao Kingdom mobilize the army and calmly attack the Song Dynasty, the situation we face will be even greater. If we take action first, we will destroy as much as the Liao army can be destroyed, and the situation we face will always be better." Lin Hong couldn't help rubbing his hands.

Wang Shao stood up, kept paced, and pondered: "Wei Qing's rushing to the Hetao land is the best example. At that time, the Xiongnu's Right Xian King was ordered by Shanyu to lead 200,000 troops straight to the Central Plains. However, what Shanyu did not expect was that Wei Qing would go straight to the Hetao land from thousands of miles away and take over the Youtao King's lair. The 200,000 Huns army had no heads, and finally failed to form an army, thus throwing away the Hetao land."

He stopped suddenly and said, "We have done this!"

The voice is not loud, but it is unwavering, and it is full of perseverance and excitement.

"Only Wang Shumi can do this big thing." Wu Ji continued, "There is another important reason why the Song Dynasty could not defeat Liao Gou, that is, the army of the Song Dynasty was too scattered. If you guard a city, I guard a place, and each other is not in harmony, and each other is not subordinate to each other. Liao Gou can concentrate its troops to defeat each other. Wang Shumi is at the border, and the border troops can be unified. Only by obeying Wang Shumi's orders can we do a big battle."
