Hearing Li Pojun say this, and his expression was quite confident, the army couldn't help but be very curious, could it be that His Highness had any tricks.

Looking at the puzzled and curious eyes of the army, Li Pojun smiled and said: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, and we will know when the time comes."

When the army heard this, they had to smile bitterly, even if Li Pojun didn't say it, they couldn't continue to ask no.

"Zen Master, how much military rations are left?"

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Pojun asked Zen Master Yuwen that Zen Master Yuwen, who was familiar with the martial arts of writing and ink, played the role of joining the army and quartermaster.

Zen Master Yuwen also replied when he heard this: "It is still enough for the whole army to meet for ten days."

Li Pojun also raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Ten days...... Enough is enough".

Then he said: "After arriving in Liangze, the goal of our army is the big cities of Huichang and Baxian, looking for opportunities to go down to a few big cities, killing the rebellious and majestic, and then waiting for the opportunity to move."

When the army heard this, Li Pojun was thoughtful, and said goodbye: "Let's all go down and rest, Jingyang stays."

Zhai Liang and the others all went out, leaving Li Zhen alone in the tent.

"Jingyang, how are the secret spies arranged?" Li Pojun rubbed his sore legs and asked.

Although it was not a formal occasion at this time, Li Zhen was not rude at all, sat up straight and saluted: "It has been arranged, the focus is on Jixian, Huichang, Gu'an, and Changzhou cities ordered by the general." ”

Li Pojun nodded happily when he heard this, "Well done, the key to this battle is on the secret spy." Be sure to report to me the situation in several cities before our army passes through Ryozawa."

Li Zhen's face was also immobile when he heard the praise, and he responded directly, "The last general will be saved, and the last general will not dare to be greedy for the secret spy, thanks to the assistance of the two directors of the villa."

Seeing Li Zhen's appearance of advancing and retreating like this, Li Pojun also smiled, this Li Zhen is good, he is too young and old, older than me, and I don't know how the British prince taught, but at the age of one or twenty, there are signs of developing into a rotten old master, one by one.

As early as when the army left Chang'an, Li Pojun secretly instructed Li Zhen to plant secret spies in several important cities in Youzhou, and if there was any need, just look for Li Zheng and Li Ran, and ask for money and people. Li Zheng is in charge of the property of the villa, and he is indispensable for money and food dispatch, and Li Ran took over the Flying Eagle Gang and adapted it into the World Association, and there is no shortage of rangers and gangsters under his hands, and there is no shortage of people.

When the scorching sun is in the sky, it is already autumn in the sky, and under the illumination of this scorching sun, it is also hot and hot on people.

In a bamboo forest, Li Pojun wiped the sweat on his forehead, looked at the cool and fresh bamboo forest, and said with a smile: "But I don't want to have such a good place in this wilderness."

When the army heard this, they couldn't help but smile bitterly, now in such a wilderness, there is no village in front of it, and there is no store in the back, and the general is also so interested.

"General, the bamboo forest here is refreshing, because the front and left two places are Daze." Zhai Changsun spoke, but there was worry in his eyes that could not be concealed.

Li Pojun could see the worries of the army, and took out an object from his arms with a smile, a cloth bag, in the puzzled and curious eyes of the army, Li Pojun opened the cloth bag, but inside was a swarthy stone, and the other ...... And an iron needle?

I saw that the iron needle was only attached to the black stone.

The army looked at Li Pojun with a confused expression, "General, what is this?" Stone? Embroidery needles? Fang Yiai touched his head and asked.

Li Pojun smiled, picked up the iron needle and rubbed it back and forth on the black stone, that's right, what Li Pojun was doing was a simple compass, and rubbing an iron needle back and forth on the magnet a few times made a simple compass.

Magnet is very easy to find, any pharmacy can be found, magnet can still be a Chinese herbal medicine, although the magnetism is certainly not as useful as the purified magnetite, but it can be used.

In the puzzled eyes of the generals, he rubbed about half a pillar of incense back and forth, picked up the iron needle and put it on the nail cover, only to see that the iron needle actually rotated on its own, and when it rotated in one direction, it was motionless.

Li Pojun gently flicked the iron needle and changed the direction, only to see that the iron needle turned back by itself.

The generals' eyes widened in disbelief.

"It'...... How did it move on its own? ”

"The iron needle will turn its own way?"

"This needle seems to be pointing in only one direction."

………… Looking at the surprised expressions of the generals, Li Pojun also laughed, a simple compass principle actually frightened this group of ancient elites.

"General, this is ...... What's going on? God...... Miracles? In his mind, the iron needle was just a dead thing, and there was no wind at this time, and no one pushed it, it actually moved by itself, and it always pointed in one direction.

"Huh? General, can this thing always point in one direction? Won't you get lost all the time? Zhai Changsun exclaimed.

"Well, I call this thing a compass, after magnetization, you can point out the south, well, like the compass, Sinan, it's just simpler." Li Pojun continued to grind the iron needle and said.

As soon as Li Pojun said this, the generals also understood, this little thing is just like Sinan, but it is simpler, and it is made in a while to see that the general is so simple, it is more practical than the complex and valuable Sinan, that Sinan is not easy to make, it is very valuable, and it is also regarded as a treasure in Si Tiantai.

Asked Zen Master Yuwen to take out the map, Li Pojun pointed to the map and said: "You see, we are here, and if we want to go to Youzhou through the reeds of dozens of miles between these two rivers, we can only go north." As he spoke, he pointed to the iron needle that swayed slightly on his fingernails, although the iron needle was slightly shaken by the wind, but it was the north and the north at the beginning.

The generals were amazed and nodded in agreement.

Li Pojun said again: "After passing through the reeds, don't go out, and settle down on the side, the reeds are inaccessible, and it is not easy to be found in Youzhou."

The generals' eyes lit up when they heard this, and they responded, this strategy seemed to be perfect, originally their strange army was behind the surprise attack on the enemy, if it was discovered by the rebels, if it was known by Wang Junkuo before it took action, it would definitely be over.

So Li Pojun came all the way, first said that he was going into the Nanshan area to suppress bandits, and then he traveled thousands of miles a day along the waterway, and when he arrived in Jeju, he took the small road again, and arrived at the northern border of Cangzhou, the edge of Youzhou, and his whereabouts were unpredictable all the way, as the so-called I don't know my whereabouts, can you still know? Moreover, the war in northern Xinjiang is raging, and several places are hot, how can anyone notice his young prince and his teenage prince, so all the way Li Pojun's 3,000 army arrived behind this Youzhou, which can be described as unaware.
