Chapter 1375 I'm afraid you won't come back!
The Imperial Study in Bianjing, the capital city.
"So so, so so..."
Shi Qian, Xiao Jiasui, and the others were whispering among themselves, naturally about what had just happened between Ququ and Ren Yuan.
"That's great! This proves that no matter what, my brother is still the same person he always was."
Xiao Jiahui was also very happy to hear that Ren Yuan and his son were having a good time.
It is said that sitting in that position can easily make one indifferent. Although Ren Yuan has not officially ascended the throne and become emperor in the past three years, his actual status is already that of emperor. It is very rare that he can still maintain the same mentality as before.
"Yes, and most importantly, the Crown Prince treats his younger sister very well and is a good older brother. He will definitely treat his younger brother the same way in the future. This is a great blessing for me!"
Over the past three years, Li Zhu has been following Zhou Tong, and he has become increasingly ethereal and otherworldly.
"Yes, although the young master is still young, you can tell what a person will be like at three years old. With the guidance of Elder Zhou and the personal care of my brother and sister-in-law, I think the young master's future is limitless."
Wang Yin returned not long ago, and now there are no problems on the Goryeo side; it's practically a united front, allowing Wang Yin to return and rest. Currently, the main political leaders in Goryeo are Qiu Yu and Shi Wenbin, and these two are doing a very good job there, working together seamlessly.
"Brother, right now, you don't have enough children. It would be even better if you had two or three more sons."
Shi Qian said that even when fighting a tiger, brothers are close, and although the heir is a good person, he still needs help.
"Shh, Shi Qian, you can't talk about this carelessly. A little has its advantages, and a lot has its troubles. Your brother should know that."
Xu Guanzhong waved his hand, signaling Shi Qian not to say more. Now that we're all brothers here, it's fine to talk, but if we continue to be so casual in the future, it might cause some trouble.
"Brother Guanzhong, you're right. I won't say anything more."
Shi Qian chuckled and covered his mouth. He knew what Xu Guanzhong meant; he was worried that he would be framed in the future. But he wasn't afraid. He was the leader of Tianmu and Anying. If anyone dared to speak ill of him behind his back, Shi Qian was not someone to be trifled with!
"What are you talking about?"
Ren Yuan came in at this moment. He had washed his face and looked much better.
"Greetings, brother (Your Highness)!"
Upon seeing Ren Yuan enter, everyone immediately lined up and bowed to him.
"Alright, alright, take them all back. I haven't ascended the throne yet, so I'm not going to play these games."
Ren Yuan waved his hand. In the future, we'll definitely need to exchange gifts and such, but for now, let's save money where we can. Too many gifts can easily create distance.
"Brother, we've been waiting for you."
"Brother, you look more energetic lately."
……
After everyone finished their greetings, they smiled and greeted Ren Yuan.
"Everyone's the same, right? Wang Yin just got back not long ago, right? How are you doing? You've been in Korea for so long, are you adjusting well back here?"
Ren Yuan was also very moved when he saw Wang Yin. The experience over the past few years had thoroughly honed Wang Yin, and now he was truly both scholarly and martial!
"Brother, everything is fine. Compared to Goryeo, the Central Plains is better. However, Goryeo is also getting better now, and the people there are living quite well."
Wang Yin responded with a smile, saying he was proud because Goryeo had gradually recovered under Wen Huanzhang and his leadership.
"That's good. Come on, Shi Qian, tell everyone what you have to say."
Ren Yuan nodded, then led everyone to the sand table and signaled Shi Qian to begin his performance.
"Brothers, everyone look at the sand table. The latest news from Brother Sun An is that the Jin Kingdom is about to march south."
Shi Qian picked up a small stick and some small flags and began to fiddle with the sand table.
"According to Pengju, they had reached this position and ambushed the Jurchen troops, burning their supplies."
"As you can all see, this location is right at the intersection of our buffer zone with the Jin Kingdom. According to Pengju, the Jin people have stockpiled a large amount of grain and have more than 10,000 troops there. What are they planning to do?"
Upon hearing this, the strategists immediately began their analysis.
"If it were me, deploying such a large force and so much food in this location would clearly indicate that I intend to use this place as an outpost."
Wang Yinxian said that he also picked up a small stick and fiddled with it on the sand table.
“The Jurchen cavalry are numerous, and at this distance they can easily harass our northern camp before retreating. Our northern camp has a large number of infantry, and unless they advance en masse, it will be difficult to successfully pursue them.”
"Not only that, they're hiding in a very well-hidden location. If we don't realize there are people here and attack directly..."
Wang Yin marked a location on the map with a flag.
"From this position, we're vulnerable to a sneak attack from this golden army, which would make things even more troublesome!"
"Wang Yin is right."
Both Hsiao Chia-hui and Hsu Kuan-chung expressed their agreement.
"Once the two sides start fighting, this position can be cleverly used to flank the enemy, and our supply lines will definitely be exposed to the enemy."
"We don't have a good way to stop the Jurchen cavalry's harassment tactics. If Pengju hadn't discovered them this time, they would have had more than 10,000 men raid our camp, especially our supply lines."
"Brother, I think someone needs to go and take down this stronghold!"
Xu Guanzhong stated that although Yue Fei's sneak attack did achieve the effect of damaging the enemy's morale, it ultimately failed to complete the mission of annihilating the enemy. If the Jurchens were to redeploy heavy troops to that location in order to seek revenge, it would definitely not be a good thing for the future Dayi Army.
“I agree with Guan Zhong’s suggestion. Let Brother Sun An send people directly. Although this point can’t pose a direct threat to the Jurchens, it’s advantageous for us.”
Hsiao Chia-sui stated that they are ready to fight, but they cannot allow the enemy to seize the opportunity to control their own army.
"Why don't I go and cut off the heads of their leading generals? They'll definitely panic! Then it'll be much easier for everyone to fight them."
Li Zhu suddenly spoke up, declaring that he would charge into the enemy's ranks alone and take their head!
"Brother Li, there's no need for you to do anything with these ordinary people. It would be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut!"
Everyone said, "Li Zhu, don't act recklessly. Although you are capable, it's easy to dodge open attacks but hard to guard against hidden ones in an army. What if something goes wrong? It's not worth it for those people."
"Then...then didn't they say that Wanyan Aguda would personally lead the expedition? In that case, I'll go and assassinate Wanyan Aguda directly! Those two old monsters were killed by the old senior and Master Luo three years ago. Now the Jurchens have no experts who can threaten me!"
After thinking it over, Li Zhu decided that it was fine not to make any arrangements; he could just go and carry out the decapitation plan directly.
"Military Advisor Li, Military Advisor Li, I will definitely take you with me this time. You don't need to use such a risky method. Wanyan Aguda is leading the expedition in person, so he will definitely be heavily protected. Moreover, he will have no fewer than 100,000 soldiers under his command. Even if you can kill him in one blow, how will you escape?"
Ren Yuan quickly said, "Although Li Zhu's idea of assassinating Wanyan Aguda is very good, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back!"
"Hmm...that's true..."
Li Zhu thought about it for a moment and then gave up the idea. Indeed, Ren Yuan was right. He was not yet capable of moving freely on a battlefield with a scale of 100,000 people.
"But Your Highness, rest assured, as long as I believe I can kill Wanyan Aguda, I will definitely use my sword to behead him for Your Highness!"
