Chapter 1082: Dependence
There is no suspense about the victory of the first battle, to be prepared to fight unprepared, if you can still lose, how can the Daning soldiers become famous, but after this battle, the gunpowder carried by Shen Leng's army is basically about to run out, and in fact, except for Shen Leng's army, there is no habit of carrying gunpowder in other Daning soldiers' armies, and there are not so many craftsmen in Daning who can prepare gunpowder for war.
Shen Leng, who was sitting on the wooden wall of the camp and dangling his legs and looking outside, did not look like a general, he looked like a simple young man who sat on the wall of his house and looked at the crops outside.
Shen Leng looked at the stone throwing cart still standing outside the camp, and his mind was always thinking about firearms and range.
If, in the future, there can be a firearm that has a longer range and lighter range than the bow and crossbow, and each Daning soldier has one, and is equipped with a Daning standard horizontal knife, which can be fought from a distance and attacked closely, then the future Daning will really be invincible in the world, and if the huge stone-throwing vehicle can increase the range again, the gunpowder bag thrown out is no longer controlled by calculating the length of the fuse, but will explode when it is thrown to the place, and the power is huge.
He didn't know what Emperor Galocillus had said after he learned of the existence of firearms.
If the war of the future is a war of firearms, how boring will it be?
Shen Leng would never have thought of such a comment, because he had never found war to be interesting.
"Scouts send back news."
Chen Ran walked to Shen Leng's side: "Your judgment of Galoculus should be correct, the right guard army of the rest of the people has been mobilized to the northeast of Wang Ting City to garrison it a few days ago, and dozens of miles outside the city are under the control of the right guard army, so even if we wait for the wind, we may not be able to attack the city smoothly." ”
Shen Leng nodded: "I guessed it." ”
He looked at the field outside the city and said to himself: "If I deploy troops to the northeast of Wangting City in advance, Galocull will immediately understand my thoughts, so I didn't move in advance, he should also be waiting for me to move in advance, if I transfer our troops before General Tang's army completes the arrangement, tens of thousands of people will be immediately surrounded and killed by the army of rest." ”
"I didn't move, Galok couldn't wait for me, at this time, the right guard army was transferred, it means that General Tang's army is not far from the royal court, the last time they sent someone to contact them, they were about two hundred miles away from the royal court, and now it should be within a hundred miles, Galok Luo didn't dare to wait any longer."
Chen Ran asked, "What should I do then?" The Right Guard was one of their most elite armies, probably nearly 100,000 men, while we had less than 50,000 men, and with 50,000 attacking 100,000, there was no chance of victory. ”
"yes...... If it is the army of other countries in the Western Regions, it is fine, and it is not impossible to attack 100,000 with 50,000, but it is not possible to face the Sabbatarians. ”
Shen Leng took off the kettle and took a sip of water: "Wait." ”
"Wait?"
What Chen Ran has heard Shen Leng say the most in the past few days is to wait.
"I arranged for the prisoners we captured to send a letter to the resting Zuoxian King Reta to the past, Retta's son is the abandoned Nie Di who led the army to attack us before, after winning the battle, I personally interrogated the prisoners, and immediately wrote a letter after learning the news, do you think this letter will be delivered to Reta?"
"It should be, after all, it's a soldier who abandoned Nie Di."
"I don't want to."
Shen sneered: "So I interrogated a total of ten captives, said the same thing as them, and gave them the same letters, these ten people, as long as one person sent the letter to Galoculo instead of Retta." ”
"Galocleo will kill Reta?"
Chen Ran's eyes lit up.
"No, it won't."
Shen sneered: "Galocleu can't do without the left and right guards, the left guard and the right guard are the most capable teams in his hands, in addition to his forbidden army, if nothing else, Galocleus will kill and abandon Nie Di, this person has been defeated in my hands, this time the loss of troops is broken, if Galocleus does not kill him again, it will be difficult to convince the public, after Galocleo kills him, the left guard will take over the position of abandoning Nie Di's army to defend us, or attack us directly, if a letter is delivered to Galocleo at this time, If he knew that I was trying to persuade Reita to join forces with me, Galaccolius would have reacted by summoning Reta, comforting him, making amends to him, and trusting him in all seriousness. ”
Shen Leng looked at Chen Ran: "Galacques will never kill Lei Ta." ”
"What about this letter?"
"This letter is still for Retta."
Shen sneered and said, "Galaxie will not kill Retta, but Reta will be afraid that Galaxie will kill him because of this letter, after all, his son should have died in the hands of Galacliu." ”
Shen Leng got up and patted the soil on his buttocks: "It's not so easy to beat the resting people." ”
Chen Ran looked back at the barracks, the second prince was juju with a group of soldiers, the soldiers seemed to be very familiar with the second prince these days, a prince without a shelf, a prince who was close to the people and soldiers.
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince will be the crown prince after he goes back this time, right?"
Chen Ran asked.
"It should be."
Shen Leng also looked at the second prince: "I told him that he should have more contact with the soldiers, so that the soldiers can be familiar with him, just like His Majesty did back then, he understood quickly." ”
Chen Ran: "Leng Zi, if the second prince ......"
He held back the words that followed.
"I know what you're worried about."
Shen Leng leaned against the wooden wall and looked at the sweaty second prince who was playing with the soldiers over there: "Are you worried that all this is an illusion?" ”
"Yes."
Chen Ran didn't expect Shen Leng's words to be so direct, just now he wanted to say that it was not easy to say, whether it was the second prince or the crown prince, they were all people who grew up in that environment, and the scheming in their hearts was far stronger than ordinary people, they have been actors since they were children, Chen Ran didn't believe that the second prince was really as it seemed, so he was worried about Leng Zi's future.
"Do you know why I believe in the second prince?"
Shen sneered: "Because of Concubine Zhen, because of Your Majesty, the children taught by Concubine Zhen will not be bad, and Your Majesty has relied on the old dean for so many years. ”
Chen Ran was stunned.
Shen Leng pointed at himself: "If I hadn't met Mr. Shen, would I be the current Shen Leng?" ”
Chen Ran thought about it and didn't know how to answer.
"Some people say that people are born with character, but in my opinion, people's personality is related to experience."
Shen Leng patted Chen Ran on the shoulder: "Don't worry about the future." ”
At this moment, the second prince was sweating profusely and ran towards Shen Leng, ran to Shen Leng and said breathlessly: "Dear Master, the task is completed and you win." ”
Shen Leng laughed: "Didn't the soldiers know that you were the prince and let you?" ”
"Of course not."
The second prince immediately said: "I told them, no one is allowed to let me, and besides, they may not be able to win me alone, this is for you." ”
He handed the ball to Shen Leng: "Whoever wins will take it away, I want to give it to you." ”
Shen Leng asked, "Why did you give it to me?"
? ”
The second prince said: "My master said that meaningful things are given to meaningful people, and you teach me to play a bow with the soldiers, so this bow ball is for you." ”
Shen Leng subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed it on the second prince's head: "Keep it for yourself, looking at this bow ball, you will remember how to get along with the soldiers, if you want to give me a gift, it is better to give me something valuable, you know that I am greedy for money." ”
The second prince smiled: "You are not greedy for money, you are greedy for righteousness." ”
Chen Ran was shocked when he heard this, and when he looked at the second prince, there was a little more understanding in his eyes.
In fact, Shen Leng didn't say anything to Chen Ran, and he couldn't say it, the second prince chatted with him on the wall of Magic Mountain Pass that day, and the second prince blurted out a word, but he covered it up, but how could Shen Leng not hear it, that word was too important for the second prince, and that word was too important for Shen Leng, but neither of them could easily mention that word.
Elder brother.
The second prince won the ball, and he ran over, not to show off to his own master that he had won, but to show off to his brother.
Probably, brother, do you think I'm amazing?
At the same time, Chang'an.
The Academy, the dean of the old dean's house.
The emperor sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the old dean lying there and sighed: "How old are you still greedy for cold and ice?" ”
The old dean smiled helplessly: "Maybe it's because I know that I'm too old, thinking that winter will go to spring and warm up in the future, and then I want to eat ice will come to next winter, I can't wait when I'm old, and I don't want to wait, many things can wait when I'm young, and I don't dare to wait when I'm old, wouldn't it be a pity if I can't wait, but I didn't expect that eating a few pieces of ice would cause diarrhea for several days, and I didn't expect it." ”
The emperor sighed: "I have asked the people from the Tai Hospital, and I have also asked the people from the Shen Family Medical Center, and they all said that you will be fine after a while, but you can't be willful in the future, at such an old age, what else can't be controlled." ”
"I don't want to control it at such an old age."
The old dean smiled and said: "There is nothing to be afraid of, people who can't even remember their specific age can control what they want to eat." ”
He looked at the emperor: "If something happens to the minister at this age because of reckless eating and drinking, Your Majesty doesn't have to be sad, after all, the minister is also for enjoyment." ”
"What nonsense!"
The emperor glared at the old dean: "I don't allow it." ”
The old dean laughed: "Your Majesty can not allow many things, but you are not allowed to live, old, sick and die, the minister knows, Your Majesty regards the minister as not only a minister, but also an elder, so the minister has been proud for decades, and the minister has been proud enough in this life." ”
The Emperor let out a long breath: "I have decreed that you will not be allowed to see ice again. ”
The old dean pouted: "The minister is going to be ninety years old, and he still has to take care of it?" ”
"Manage."
The emperor said, "You said that I depend on you, sir, why don't you rely on me?" If there is no one to care about you, you may be more presumptuous, presumptuous to the point that you play big, you don't regret it, I regret it, but persuasion, relying on others can't do it after all, I want you to live longer, you are not yet a hundred years old, and I don't care about you after a hundred years old. ”
The old dean smiled: "A hundred years old, then there are still about ten years." ”
"If you don't live to be a hundred years old, what right do you have to brag - to say that you have read all the world?"
The emperor got up: "When I brag in the future, you have to be there, you have to look at me with disgust, saying that you are only a hundred years old and what are you bragging about?" ”
The old dean laughed.
The eye sockets are slightly moist.
