Chapter 962 There is another big thing: Fang Jie has seen this scene more than once, or maybe everything he experienced today feels so familiar to him. When he saw the golden armor presented by the gentry and common people, he suddenly felt like he was in another world. At this moment, he had to think of the mountain and the high platform he passed when he went south. Now we are on the bank of the Yangtze River, and the golden armor will be delivered at this time no matter how early or late it is. It seems that there is really God¡¯s will in the dark. Chen Xiaoru walked up to Fang Jie holding the golden armor. The brilliance of the sunlight reflected on the golden armor was so dazzling. This gold may not have any special meaning on the day it was created, but when the golden armor was presented to Fang Jie, its meaning had already changed. It may be impossible to verify whether this golden armor was specially made for Fang Jie. "Good sign" Wu Yiyi, the Hou of Sanjin, couldn't help laughing when he saw this golden armor. He walked over quickly, looked at the shining golden armor in the tray and praised: "The people in front of the battle are sending gold ALord, this is a very auspicious thing." Fang Jie stretched out his hand to touch the golden armor, but his hand stopped in mid-air. "Send the golden armor to Her Royal Highness the Princess." Fang Jie stopped his hand in mid-air and waved it. After giving an order, he turned around and got on the carriage without looking at the golden armor again. Everyone was a little confused as to why Fang Jie reacted this way. Such an auspicious event was a great boost to morale, but Fang Jie didn't seem very happy. "What's wrong?" Seeing his strange expression, Shen Qingshan, who was making tea in the carriage, couldn't help but ask him. In the past two years, Shen Qingshan's temperament has become quieter and quieter, and he no longer has the wild enchantment and cold arrogance of the past. This is an inevitable growth process for women. It is actually good to calm down in comfort. "It's nothing, I just suddenly didn't want to see that golden armor." Although Shen Qingshan and the others didn't get out of the car just now, they also saw Chen Xiaoru carrying the golden armor to Fang Jie. "If you don't want to see it, don't go see it. Let's have a cup of tea." Shen Qingshan didn't ask why at all. Not only her, but no one in the other women in the carriage asked why either. Maybe if the carefree Wanyan Yunshu was around, he would ask him, that's because Wanyan Yunshu wouldn't think about complicated issues at all. And they are all the kind of people who are so smart that they never need others to remind them of anything. "I'm just a little resistant" Fang Jie sat down in the carriage near the window and took the teacup handed to him by Shen Qingshan: "If I said that I saw what happened today a few years ago, you guys Do you find it incredible? When I was crossing the Yangtze River from Chang'an City, I had a hallucination while standing on a high platform. I saw myself a few years laterI saw myself wearing golden armor, standing on a huge chariot. The car was heading north, and I was followed by countless soldiers wearing black armor" Fang Jie touched the tea cup with his lips, but did not drink it: "If God has arranged all this, then Is everything I have done over the years based on my own wishes or has it been predestined? " After hearing Fang Jie's words, Mu Xiaoyao suddenly felt a little cold in his heart Fang Jie's words didn't sound particularly strange. But if you think about it carefully, you can feel the coldness in those words. If everything a person has to experience is arranged, and everything that happens is following the route set by others then wouldn't everyone be a puppet on strings? Just go as others shake. Shuddering "It's just a coincidence" Shen Qingshan thought for a while and said: "We always encounter very strange things, such as dreaming about something, and a few days later these things really happen. Maybe when you go somewhere, you will feel I have been there before and am very familiar with it. These are mysterious and mysterious and cannot be explained clearly, but this does not mean that everything has been arranged by someone. You can think about it for yourself, which steps you have taken over the past few years have been planned by others. Are you on the right path?" Fang Jie smiled: "I'm fine, I just hate this feeling. Every time I feel like this, I can't help but look up to the sky to see if there is really an expressionless person. You are looking down coldly, telling me with your eyes that you can't escape" "Maybe it is true," Mo Ningzhi suddenly said, "But even if it is true, I don't understand why you hate it. That feeling. If it were me, I would be very excited" He glanced at Fang Jie: "When I was taken away by them, I once thought about why fate was playing tricks on me. It was obvious that I should have a life. It's quiet?When I grew up, I learned embroidery, chess, calligraphy and painting, and then waited for my family to choose a suitable family for me to marry, raise a husband and raise children, and live an ordinary life. The greatest enjoyment every day is just holding a book and reading it for a while under the pavilion by the lotus pond However, when I took your place and started to escape, I knew that all of this had faded away. It is no longer the original future. " "At that time, I couldn't help but think, is that kind of life better? Indulge in comfort, or struggle out of adversity and finally achieve something? My current cultivation is precisely because of those years when I was on the run for you. If running away for you is my destiny, then do you think I am abiding by my destiny? " "I'm not. "Mo Ningzhi said slowly and seriously: "If I had followed the choice of fate, then I would have died long ago. I don¡¯t want to be pushed around, so I want to fight! " "Fight? " Fang Jie repeated this to himself. "Yes, fight! "Mo Ningzhi said word by word: "If you arrange my fate without my consent, why should I listen to your arrangements? I want to fight! If God has arranged my destiny without my consent, why should I obey God's arrangements? I want to fight! She paused for a moment: "In fact, your current height is no longer competing with people, but competing with God." " "What are you arguing with the sky for? " Fang Jie asked. "Heaven is heaven, and the world is human. " Mo Ningzhi looked into Fang Jie's eyes and said slowly: "The fight is for the world After the fight, you will dominate the world. " The two naval forces have been waiting by the river for a long time. With 380,000 combat troops and more than 100,000 government troops, plus a large number of logistics supply fleets, it is definitely not easy to transport all these things across the Yangtze River." It's an easy task. With the current strength of the navy, it will take less than ten days to send all such a huge army. This is the most difficult war the Black Flag Army has ever faced. The start of the war is actually very difficult. This battle is different from any previous battle. There are many things that need to be changed. The food road is too long. Before the largest granary in Jiangbei is captured, food supplies are mainly from. Transported from the southwest. As for Jiangnan, after the Black Flag Army left, few of the large households who had food were willing to donate some food so easily, and the granaries in Jiangnan were not in the hands of the Black Flag Army. If Nan Yan was also an expedition, then the significance of these two expeditions is absolutely different. When fighting against Nan Yan, Fang Jie could unscrupulously let his soldiers empty out the food in the major cities of Nan Yan. However, when fighting against Gyeonggi Province, Fang Jie could not do this. Do. ¡°The granary is in Liyin. Fang Jie pointed to the map: "More than half of Liyin City relies on the mountain, and the granary is built on the mountain." The reason why Liyin City is difficult to fight is firstly because it was built using the mountains, and secondly because the city walls are strong enough. Unlike other places, Liyin's city walls are all made of local materials and large stones quarried from Liyin Mountain. Even artillery cannot blast them. " He looked at the generals: "But before the army goes north, food and grass must be obtained first, so it is imperative to attack Liyin this time. Gao Kaitai took advantage of the empty defenses of Yang Jian going south to Jiangbei and came from the west to capture Liyin City by surprise. But Gao Kaitai knew the importance of Li Yin, so he left at least 20,000 troops to guard it. According to the information obtained by the scouts, the city wall of Liyin City has been raised much higher than before, and more fortifications have been built" Fang Jie used charcoal to draw a semicircle on the outside of the city wall of Liyin City, in the south of Liyin City. The semicircle on the side perfectly wraps up the half of Liyin City that is not backed by mountains: "Gao Kaitai's general Yan Zeng was a talented general. After Gao Kaitai sent him to guard Liyin City, he took advantage of the heavy rain and the river to divert water into the canal. Now this semicircle is the moat of Liyin. Although it is not very wide, it can be crossed by building a floating bridge, but the biggest hidden danger is that the river is very close to the city wall" He glanced at Chen Xiaoru, and Chen Xiaoru continued: "Liyin City's The distance between the city wall and the moat is less than ninety steps. At this distance, not to mention a ballista, even a hard bow of one and a half stones can easily send arrows over from the city wall. When building a pontoon bridge, the defenders' arrows will It caused heavy losses to our people. " " But if we don't build a pontoon bridge, the siege equipment will not be able to pass. " Fang Jie said: "Xiahou's people have already begun to attack the city on the north bank. It is not difficult to capture the county town near the bank. When the large group of troops crosses the river, Xiahou's troops will attack Li Yin. There are 20,000 elites in Liyin City, and there is such a good terrain. This first battle is not easy to fight. You guys should discuss it carefully and think of some way to help Xiahou. " "My subordinates thought" Dugu Wenxiu thought for a while and said:Even though the city of Liyin is strong and the defenders in the city are elite, and even though they will not be short of food and grass, there is still no chance of persuading them to surrender I feel that the best way is to capture Liyin as soon as possible. Instead, they did not attack Li Yin directly. " Wu Yiyi was silent and listened carefully to Dugu Wenxiu's words. When he heard him say that the best way was not to attack Li Yin, Wu Yiyi suddenly understood what Dugu Wenxiu meant. "Making decisions alone, on the surface, it seems Much of it depends on external influences. We thought that Liyin City had food, grass, and ordnance, and there was no possibility of the enemy being persuaded to surrender. That's because we failed to make them experience despair. If a person is desperate, what does surrender mean? " "How to make an enemy who is well-equipped and well-trained and has no shortage of food and supplies despair? What's more, they still have the advantage of the terrain. The terrain of Liyin City cannot be conquered by large numbers of troops. Cui Zhongzhen said. "Attack the heart" After Fang explained these two words, he couldn't help laughing, walked up to Dugu Wenxiu and said: "Although Dugu is not a military general, he is really talented in using soldiers!" If you want to make a person despair, make him feel lonely first. " Fang Jie took a look at the map, and the smile on his lips relaxed: "I want to cross Jiangbei first and go to Xiahou's pioneer camp, and you guys will come over later. " "My lord! " Dugu Wenxiu called out from behind, and then glanced at Wu Yiyi. The two people exchanged something quickly in their eyes, and then they leaned over to explain to each other at the same time: "There is another important matter. Please make a decision soon, lord. "
