[Group Wearing Song Dynasty] The Glory of the Sky

"The Big Dipper?" Liu Xi was a little sleepy at first, but he perked up when he heard this, and leaned over to take a look.

I saw that the man was dressed in Song Dynasty, aged 31, and had seven moles on the corner of his right eye, which was really strange.

"Let's say it's the Big Dipper, but it doesn't look like it. So many moles look weird..." Liu Zi glanced at the registration form in his hand: "It's called...Zhu Xi?"

"The grades are the same as those of other Song people. They are all miserable." Sun Ci yawned, took the document and put it into the shredder as well.

"But there is a very strange thing," she pondered while squatting beside the shredder, "This Zhu Xi is from Fujian, and Fujian seems a bit far away from us... Did he come here on purpose?"

"It's been more than half a year since this happened, so it's not new." Liu Xi also yawned and said, "I'm afraid he came here after hearing the news and wanted to see the real dragon."

In ancient times, the Hua Kingdom believed in the god of Kesu, and never ate octopus and similar animals.

If a squid more than ten meters long is taken out of the sea, it will be like a god appearing.

Once the news of the birth of a water dragon in Yangzhou spreads, I am afraid that a lot of material will be added to it.

It's no wonder that more and more people are pouring in now, making Li Luan feel murderous when he usually walks.

The urban construction presupposition that was finally done has to be expanded again, which is enough for the Ministry of Construction to be busy for a while.

The two of them seldom go back to the apartment, and at this moment they only carried a blanket and slept on the sofa next to them for a while.

There are still a lot of things to do after dawn, so why not just rest here.

After Xin Qiji signed the contract, he hadn't seen him a few times.

To be precise, I didn't have a chance to speak to him again for two weeks.

He didn't find it strange at all, he just learned things by doing things quietly.

Although the work of answering calls and entering information will become familiar after a long time, I have also learned a lot during this period.

Like a keen beast, he is observing the life alchemists and speech habits of Linguo people, and is constantly adapting to modern communication methods.

The sending and receiving of documents within the government is automated, but text backups are also printed to prevent sudden power outages or even energy interruptions.

And the huge information processing also reflects the administrative efficiency from the side——

The number of people in the court of the Song Dynasty is dozens of times or even more than that of the Senate, but it cannot handle such a large number of official affairs in a short period of time.

Optimizing the millennium-old technology and system is really crushing in some respects.

Xin Qiji himself is intelligent and curious, so he can cultivate both civil and military skills, and he can memorize his knowledge.

While reading books and reciting poems, he danced swords with his master, and often helped chop firewood, cook and clean up the yard.

In contrast, being Liu Xi's apprentice and getting paid is already quite generous.

Because he was going back to the Song Dynasty, he didn't cut off his long hair, but just wore a hair crown in and out of the Senate as before.

Although people knew that he was the only Song country intern in this courtyard, few dared to tease or harass him.

——This is the person appointed by Liu Zi, who dares to offend him!

Time turned and it was May.

The flowers are in full bloom, the birds are singing, and the entire Yangzhou City has entered a prosperous business period.

Liu Xi didn't have time to deal with the specific situation of the business, so he only ordered the newly established National Taxation Bureau to manage it in a loose manner for the time being.

All his and Qian Fan's attention were focused on a new army.

Wan Yanliang has fought too many battles, and experienced too many betrayals and being betrayed. He doesn't trust anyone.

Because of this, even if it took half a month for the army to arrive in Yangzhou City, he had to take the army there first to check the situation.

Yelu Yuanyi's burns healed fairly quickly, and now he can follow on horseback.

The closer he was to Yangzhou City, the more apprehensive and fearful he felt.

The scene of the sea of ​​hell last time was still engraved in his mind, and even thinking about it would subconsciously shudder.

Although Wan Yanliang knew that Yelu Yuanyi had been burnt like a toad, but in his heart he felt that this Shangshu was really a wimp, so he led the vanguard to speed up.

He got a lot of Linguo clothes from that truck and other people, and specially found a few clever spies to learn how to behave and talk with Wei Yuan, waiting to be released into the city ahead of time to scout for news.

Wan Yanliang has no interest in guessing whether Wei Yuan is pretending to be a coquettish person, or is he really a scumbag.

He directly ordered people to tie up the man and send him back with the Chinese army, just don't starve to death.

Right now, he is here to spy on the situation and determine the tactics, and he must not let any beast interfere with his plan.

When the vanguard team of 2000 people came, they almost only drove at night and early in the morning. The Han people they encountered on the roadside were either exiled or killed, and there was absolutely no possibility of letting them go.

They came from the waterway south of Xuzhou, and they didn't even disturb the army stationed in Sizhou. They were approaching the El Dorado-like place like night ghosts.

As everyone knows, due to improvements in technology and energy supply, cameras are now placed in front of the border.

When Wan Yanliang still had ten days to reach the edge of Yangzhou, Liu Xi had already seen a clear impact.

Qian Fan rested for a long time, and finally met his opponent at this moment. He only judged for a few seconds and said, "It's not an ordinary army."

"Ok?"

"I came here to spy on the news—" Qian Fan pointed to the bird's-eye view taken from a high place: "Look, the components are completely different from before. There is not even a siege vehicle, and all of them are cavalry. It’s about being able to come and go quickly.”

Liu Xi nodded and called Sun Ci to call Guo Di and Sun Daofu over.

When the golden man's army was drinking water and resting, the cameras on the roadside had clearly collected the facial features of most people, and they had sorted them out and stored them in the database.

According to Guo Di's explanation, both Sun Daofu and him had contact with the nobles and emperors of the Kingdom of Jin.

That being the case, the identity of these people can be judged through the photos.

Sun Daofu has been bored reading Lin Guo's books in the mansion these days - he asked Guo Di for help after being awkward for a long time.

Now when he came to the Senate House again, he was not as frightened as before when he saw the mercury mirror with the human head shining on it—but he still didn’t dare to stand close.

"do not know."

"do not know."

"do not know."

Qian Fan picked one that looked extravagantly dressed and accessories, and zoomed in on it for him to see.

Sun Daofu saw clearly at a glance that it was Wan Yanliang, and took three steps back in fright: "This is——this is the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin!"

"Oh?" Liu Xi said with great interest, "This emperor is in pretty good shape."

Qian Fan glared at him, and continued to ask: "They brought 2000 people here, presumably for the purpose of investigation—how many troops do you think the Jin people will bring this time?"

Guo Di pondered for a while, and explained: "Twenty thousand people were killed and injured in the previous battle. According to Wan Yanliang's temperament, he will not bring all the troops up, but he will never let Yangzhou go."

Anyone who is arrogant and conceited has the temperament of being too horny.

Anything that makes them hit a wall is very likely to be smashed to the end in the end, and there is absolutely no reason to bear it and let it go.

"They have a total of three armies, and if one wing is frustrated, they will probably bring the Chinese army over." Guo Di thought about it: "There are about 20 to [-]—"

The total military strength of the Kingdom of Jin is more than 100 million.

But because there are too many prefectures and counties occupied, and the backyard is on fire, Song people who revolted and resisted are everywhere in the territory, so it takes nearly half to guard various places.

The two capitals had to be garrisoned by the imperial army, and there were also elements of sickness and weakness in it. In fact, only about 35 to [-] people could be dispatched by Wan Yanliang at will.

Liu Xi took a deep breath for a moment, and said, "I'm afraid they are worried about nights and dreams, and want to take us down."

In the past few months, Liu Xi has focused all his energy on speeding up the defense of Yangzhou City and the development of military strength.

He went to steel factories and military factories more frequently than anyone in the Engineering Bureau. He single-handedly supervised the strong supply of iron factories and steel factories, and monitored the coal reserves in the two cities of Jiangyin and Yangzhou—now available It's two years later.

Due to the establishment of diplomatic relations with Hangzhou, they began to sell a small amount of things that did not affect the military aircraft in exchange for a large amount of money to strengthen the military reserves.

Because of this, the military factory had just been built in early May, and the first batch of flamethrowers had just begun to be produced.

It is far from enough to develop to the level where machine guns can be mass-produced.

Liu Xi was fighting for time, and what he was most worried about was not which side, Jin or Song, would start a war against Yangzhou, but if either side found out that they had to stop the development of Linguo, and they couldn't let it grow bigger.

If this Wanyan Liang was smart enough, he would have been able to detect the rumors from the previous battle report.

——If a country's defense is so terrifying that it can kill more than [-] people without a single soldier showing up, then this kind of combat power will only be more destructive if it is transformed into an attack.

Qian Fan knew exactly what Liu Xun was thinking.

He was worrying about the same thing.

This time, Wan Yanliang, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, led his troops to investigate in person, probably because he wanted to kill Lin Guo.

Up to now, Lin Guo already has a deep understanding of the situation and history of the Jin and Song Dynasties.

The Kingdom of Jin kept the Southern Song Dynasty from killing. On the one hand, it was true that it had just finished fighting the Northern Song Dynasty and needed to recover its military strength. On the other hand, it also had a reason to fatten up the sheep before slaughtering them.

But Linguo is not a sheep.

The scary thing is that it wasn't Wan Yanliang who found out that Lin Guo wasn't a sheep.

Rather, he believes that Linguo is the dragon guarding the treasure.

If their army breaks through the guards in Yangzhou and breaks into Jiangyin City in the rear.

All the sons and daughters of the Hua Kingdom will have no corpses left.

-

Wan Yanliang looked at the short-haired spies in front of him, who were more than half of the people in the country, and thought it was a bit funny.

It's fine for the men in Linguo to wear short hair, why do you hear that even women have short hair?

Wouldn't it be neither yin nor yang, just like being punished?

"Go." He said lazily, "Don't let them catch you."

Yangzhou City covers a vast area, with six gates in the front, back, south, east, and northwest.

According to the intelligence of the scouts, the east side has been sealed off now, and the west side is full of miasma and ghosts, and can only enter from the north and south.

If you want to take a detour from the west, you are very likely to be ambushed by the authorities.They marched first and didn't bring enough people, so they couldn't rashly test the depth.

Because of this, Song Ren and Lin Ren could only pretend to go to visit relatives through the north gate. In short, they had to think of ways to send people in.

A total of four spies were ready and got into the waiting line when the city gate was opened.

In fact, the news that there are dragons in Linguo has been spread by countless people to the north and south of the river, and even people in the old capital of the Kingdom of Jin have heard of it.

In the beginning, it was just a legend that there is a dragon-controlling person who can turn the flowing water of the river around the city like a dragon, and can drive it left and right and even call it to attack people.

Then, it turned into walking with fire dragons and water dragons intertwined, and said that the lord of the neighboring country entered the city on a green luan.

Later, I said that the people of Linguo have three heads and six arms, and they can kill people in the blink of an eye.

Although Wan Yanliang is used to listening to strange words, of course he does not believe that he is the reincarnation of the wild wolf in the legend.

But the common people believe it.

There were already many people fleeing from the north to the south, and when they heard that Yangzhou City was protected by auspicious signs, they took advantage of the time when the Jin soldiers withdrew to go here.

But Liu Zi and Li Luan had already ordered the population to be controlled, and few people dared to defy the law and let the refugees in.

Everyone in the world is living in dire straits, and no one can save anyone.

Liu Yuanshou stood above ten thousand people and couldn't find someone to work overtime for him. Who could pity him.

Right now, there is a long line of queues outside Beicheng, all of whom have come here looking forward to taking refuge in the city.

The fire in Yangzhou late at night, and the setback of the Jin army, but how many eyes are watching quietly.

There is an electronic screen erected on the north gate, which displays the remaining number of temporary residence permits in real time in Chinese characters.

Just jumping from zero to one can put a person in.

After Champa, a census was conducted throughout Yangzhou, and everyone received their temporary and permanent residence permits.

In the beginning, because there were a large number of people coming in and out of the south gate, it was not easy to manage.

But now that the population has settled down, relatively speaking, the daily flow is much better.

All non-indigenous people who enter and exit through the south gate need to have a corresponding identity stamp and have a photo file.

——Although they didn't know what they were being photographed.

Ten people go through the south gate, and only ten can be let in by the north gate.

How long it takes to get in the queue is really uncertain.

The spies went to line up all afternoon and sent someone back to report to Wan Yanliang.

"What?" The corner of the emperor's eyes twitched: "I still have to queue up when I enter the city? Get a number? What number?"

"Then... are you still in line?"

"Pai! Pai fucking!"

Wan Yanliang didn't dare to go out rashly during the day, and only took his cronies to check the surrounding situation in the middle of the night.

Seeing the silence, only the long queue at the door, Wan Yanliang called the team that had been prepared long ago, and led Yelu Yuanyi who knew the way.

There are minefields on the left and right sides, which have been surrounded by temporary barriers, leaving only a very thin path in the middle.

Refugees may not obey the rules in other places, but there are several dead bodies left unattended in this restricted area, which is really the best security.

Yelu Yuanyi has been pretending to recuperate all the way, but actually thinking about how to keep himself and his clansmen alive.

It wasn't until Wan Yanliang carried him out that he realized that a piece of the iron curtain had been dismantled in the middle, allowing people to come in and queue up during the day.

Right now there is still a long queue waiting for the opportunity to enter the door, which is much better than during the day.

But these people have been shut inside the Iron Curtain by the gauze-like door, and in front of the gauze are four big characters one person tall.

"Touch·door·meet·die".

Wan Yanliang knew Chinese characters, and when he saw these four characters, he sneered in his heart.

So what if you touch the screen door, you run away as soon as you touch it, don't you say you will die and you will die?

The subordinates around him didn't know whether to investigate the iron curtain or the strange screen door, and looked at the master with some hesitation.

"You, turn over this fishnet door and have a look." Wan Yanliang picked one at random, but he didn't approach the net door with countless gaps.

What the hell is this?

The people at the guard post in the distance had already seen those people through the surveillance system, and turned on the horn to drive them away: "The number collection has been stopped! We have to line up and come back tomorrow!"

The voice came from the speakers on both sides, and Wanyan Liang took a few steps back in fright, looking at the empty surroundings with a look of astonishment, and urged repeatedly: "Hurry up! Turn over!"

The refugees queuing up in the distance who had all fallen asleep turned their heads to look at them, and the scene was a little awkward for a while.

How could the subordinate dare to be negligent, and rushed directly to climb up the grid gate.

As soon as his fingertips touched the electric grid, his whole body seemed to pass through a thunderbolt. He was shaken by the electricity and stunned straight to the ground.

The guard controlling the voltage coughed impatiently, and warned again: "You guys! I told you to stay away from the power grid!"

Wan Yanliang winked, and led the people away in a hurry, and dragged the lifeless boy back, so as not to be discovered by others.

This has never been seen before.

No one was seen at the guard whistle, but a loud voice that was amplified several times could be heard.

Not only that, that door can hurt people like it is possessed by a ghost!

Yelu Yuanyi hid among them, secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

Seeing such a scene, the officials should know that they are not lying.

This Yangzhou city is now made to look like a holy city, so is it possible that it is really protected by a real dragon?

Several people circled half a circle and approached the Iron Curtain from the side.

Wan Yanliang looked around to make sure there was no one there, so he took the flashlight and shone it upwards.

——I couldn’t see the end at all.

Yelu Yuanyi raised his head and realized something was wrong.

"My lord—" he said coldly, "The gaps that we breached before have all been repaired."

That's--it's been less than a month!

You must know that along the way, Wan Yanliang only picked the fastest and strongest horses, and what he wanted was to come and investigate the situation as soon as possible.

But—but!

He clearly saw that tens of thousands of people climbed onto the Iron Curtain like ants, and even caused a dozen unknown things to fall down, crushing many people to death.

Why is it as if nothing happened now!

Wan Yanliang didn't know that he and the others were being monitored by the cameras, so he continued to look around with the flashlight.

Until the flashlight swept around, the expressions of several other people also changed.

On the Iron Curtain, there were thick bloodstains.

Obviously this is the cube that rolled down and collapsed in the last battle and was rebuilt, and it is still standing here like a mountain at this moment.

Yelu Yuanyi, who was next to him, immediately remembered all the things that happened in the past when he saw the black stains on the wall, and immediately retched beside him.

"Shut up!" Wan Yanliang shouted: "If you make any more noise, you will be disabled!"

With an expression of disbelief, he walked around the endless iron curtain.

He caressed the cold iron wall with his thick palm, his eyes revealed an expression of disbelief.

"What did they use to cast such a high wall?"

This is completely impossible.

Even if, as Yelu Yuanyi said, these things are boxes, how can people move them to a place several feet high?

During this month, everything returned to its original state, and it was absolutely impossible to rely on human power alone.

What's more, I haven't even seen a wooden frame for construction in the vicinity. Could it be possible that there are really some gods doing it?

At first, he thought that the minister was weak and incompetent, and he made up some nonsense with his subordinates to fool himself.

But now, Wan Yanliang's heart began to sink inch by inch.

How is this all done?

This Yangzhou City, is it still going to be fought?

He stepped back a few feet, and once again used the flashlight to shine on the end of the iron curtain.

Too high.

Even if you move up the ladder to climb over, it will still cause a collapse and crush a bunch of people to death just like the last battle.

Wan Yanliang let out a long sigh.

What should I do with this horse?

The Chinese army is still on the way, and according to the news, Lin Guo is also fighting with Song Guo. I don't know what attitude it has with Jin Guo.

There was silence at the side, obviously not knowing what to do, they were all waiting for Wanyan Liang's reaction.

"Go back." He said lightly.

Yelu Yuanyi was secretly delighted that his life was finally saved.

Before he could open his mouth to agree, Wan Yanliang's voice came from next to his ear.

"Called the Central Army to plunder coolies, cattle and horses in the Central Plains." He raised his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Dig the soil, move the sand, load and unload it into bags, and use carts and manpower to carry them all over."

These sandbags can be piled up under the city wall, and then they will be thrown under the feet after going up.

He is Wan Yanliang, he has never been cowardly!

In front of the monitoring screen, Qian Fan vomited a smoke ring.

"Four snipers, just stare at him. As long as he dares to sneak into the queue tomorrow, just wait for death."

They didn't directly send people to surround them tonight, because the 2000 people were guarding nearby, and the Jinren's horses were fast and fast, and the terrain to the north of Yangzhou City was complicated.

Liu Xi stood on the other side, frowned and said, "It's unlikely, they probably will leave tonight."

"If Mr. Guo's guess is correct, after they come to see the Iron Curtain, they will think of a way to bring a large army to attack the city."

He raised his head, and said in a rather stern tone, "It's time for your sniper to practice on the helicopter."
