Seawall, strong city, two or three hundred elite...

Of course, there is also a fleet that can cross the sea!

In this way, you can defend Yuntai Mountain on the sea when a disaster occurs in the future.

Wu Haogu is a relatively pragmatic person and knows that he has no great ability. He was neither a science and engineering man nor a military academy in his previous life, and he could not do anything to build guns, cannons and lead troops to fight. Even if Song Huizong was the Privy Councilor for him, he would be helpless in the face of a messy situation.

However, since God had given him birth to the Yuanfu period of the Northern Song Dynasty, he was destined to do something.

To truly accomplish things, you must do what you can and set a small goal that can be accomplished first, such as using Yuntaishan as a future base for the anti-Jin revolution.

The reason why he chose Yuntai Mountain was based on reality... His current power could only take care of Yuntai Mountain. This was the prosperous place of the Song Dynasty, less than a thousand miles away from Kaifeng Prefecture, the capital of the Song Dynasty, and there were waterways connected.

If Wu Haogu is willing, he can come here to stay for several months every year.

Moreover, Yuntai Mountain is a famous "Immortal Mountain", which is a place where powerful and wealthy people live in seclusion. It is reasonable for Wu Haogu to build a Zhuangzi here to practice Taoist temples. If he could be deceived by Song Huizong, he might be able to get a gift here or something, so that the local officials would not be able to take care of it.

As for the two or three hundred elites... how to do it?

Spend money to buy Mamruk war slaves?

This seems not good, right? Buying three or five is a problem of money, two or three hundred... too many, it's a problem of whether it's reliable, and it's too blinking!

In addition, even if these two or three hundred Mamruk war slaves obey the command like the "Wugui", Wu Haogu probably couldn't command himself.

He was frightened when he saw Liangshan Kou last time. How could he command the troops to fight with the Jin people?

Seeing Wu Haogu frowned deeply and thoughtful, Ma Zhi seemed to guess what he was thinking and asked with a smile: "Da Lang is thinking about the way to win with his troops?"

After being told through someone, Wu Haogu didn't hide it anymore, so he simply said: "Can you ask for advice?"

Ma Zhi smiled and said, "I can't say I'm asking for advice. I'm not a good master of military strategy, but I know a little bit.

In a certain opinion, the first way to use troops is to choose the general!”

"Select?"

Wu Haogu frowned, and Ma Zhi seemed to have said nonsense.

Who doesn’t know the reason for a soldier, but the general is a nest of bears?

Looking at Wu Haogu's expression, Ma Zhi smiled again: "The way to choose a general is to raise a scholar."

"Choose generals and raise soldiers?" Wu Haogu had no idea what Ma Zhi was talking about at all.

Ma Zhi glanced at Wu Haogu, who looked confused and smiled and said, "The reason why a tiger can subdue a dog is its minions. If a tiger releases its minions and uses it, the tiger will subdue it to the dog. And the general raises a soldier, which means that the tiger has its minions. The so-called scholar is a counselor, a dead soldier, a disciple, and a clan's confidant.

There are strategists who can plan, there are dead soldiers who can get into battle, there are disciples who can manage, and there are clan confidants who can protect their left and right, thus forming a force. Only in this way can we control all troops and go without any disadvantages."

Mi Youren laughed and said, "Aren't the generals mentioned by Ma Er Ge just five vassal states, the family of Sui and Tang dynasties, the powerful Eastern Han tyrants, and the princes of the Warring States Period? Is this a general selection or raising a tiger?"

"Choose a general, you are raising a tiger." Ma Zhi smiled, "A tiger can hurt a dog and can also eat the master. Although a loyal dog can protect the master, it is difficult to drive away a tiger. If you raise a dog and become a sheep, it will be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, which is useless."

Not to mention, Ma Zhi’s words make sense!

The strong Han and the prosperous Tang Dynasty were all raising tigers to cause trouble. The decline of the Han Dynasty was caused by the melee of the powerful and powerful, and the Tang Dynasty was trapped by the separatist rule of the vassal states. However, the defeat of the Song Dynasty was used to raise the army as a dog, and basically did not tolerate the existence of good generals who raised their minions.

Not to mention the peace of the Northern Song Dynasty, even in the chaotic times of the Southern Song Dynasty, the generals who built their own shogunate, recruited soldiers, and made their own equipment were also the targets of the emperor's strict defense. The final ones were killed, the ones were kept in captivity...

As for the new army of modern nation-states, for feudal dynasties, it was undoubtedly a dangerous big tiger, even more dangerous than various "tiger generals".

When Wu Haogu thought of this, his good student Mi Youren had already started discussing with Ma Zhi.

"As Ma Er Ge said, now the Song Dynasty only has the Western Army generals, which can be barely used. Staff and dead soldiers are not worthy of them, but there are still some disciples and clans. As for Kaifeng generals, they are all fat sheep who do not know the soldiers and do not raise soldiers. Although there are clans, they do not use them. I wonder what the situation is in the Liao Kingdom?"

Ma Zhi smiled and said, "It's worse than Da Song."

"Why not?" Mi Youren's tone was a little surprised. He was born into a general of the Mi family and was not ignorant of military affairs, so he naturally became afraid of Liao.

"The Liao Kingdom's politics were imitated on the surface by the Song Dynasty, but in fact, they were similar to the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The center was based on the Khitan and was the same as Guanlong; the local area relied on strong clans and families, which were similar to the powerful; and it also won over the grassland tribes and mature women to enhance the national prestige. If the Khitan was strong in heart, the powerful would obey the orders and the tribes were obedient, and the Liao Kingdom would be in a prosperous state.

Once the heart is weak, it will be weak and strong branches, and the Chinese and foreign countries will be reversed. The Anshi disaster will arise in an instant, and even if it is lucky, it will be a waste of time. The Liao Kingdom will be trapped in the separatist rule of the vassal states and will no longer have the prosperity of the past."

Mi Youren asked: "If the Liao Kingdom is similar to the Tang Dynasty, then what about the Tang Dynasty now?"

"During the Tianbao period."

"Tianbao?" Mi Youren was stunned, "Isn't that messy?"

Ma Zhi smiled: "The heart is broken, but the limbs are strong, and the body is weak. How can it not be a big disaster?"

"The Khitan's heart is broken? Why?"

Ma Zhi laughed: "It's all because of the great rise of Buddhism. All wealth is used to worship Buddha. All the heroes have become monks. How can the Khitan people not be corrupt?"

Wu Haogu listened to Ma Zhi's analysis and nodded repeatedly. This person was far-sighted, and what he expected was fulfilled one by one after another more than 20 years. Unfortunately, the Liao Kingdom did not survive the "Anshi Rebellion", so the north achieved dynasty replacement rather than separatist rule of the vassal states.

The newly emerging Jin Kingdom was in a good era of "its prosperity is booming", and it was not something that the Northern Song Dynasty could fight against in its twilight years.

If the Liao Kingdom could follow the footsteps of the Tang Dynasty, suppress the Jurchens, and then take the path of separatist rule in the feudal states, then the Northern Song Dynasty could continue to live a peaceful and corrupt life...

Thinking of this, Wu Haogu had a look with Pan Qiaolian, and then looked at the mountain and sea view outside the window.

If the world is peaceful, you will be able to live in seclusion on this island like Pan Qiaolian, and be happy for life.

This is the ideal life as an artist and time traveler!

...

Just as Wu Haogu was yearning for the happy life of the fairy couple, a familiar voice suddenly came in from outside the door.

"Sajia wants a private room, and you can only serve good wine and good food... you need meat and vegetables! Today, Sajia wants to eat meat and drink, don't eat vegetarian food that can make people fade away!"

I actually met Lu Zhishen!

When Wu Haogu heard this voice, he asked loudly: "Is Master Zhishen outside?"

"It's the Sa family!" Lu Zhishen's voice came again.

Then the door of the private room where Wu Haogu was located was pushed open, and the golden lady walked in with a waiter holding a tray, and the tower-like monk Lu Zhishen walked in.

On the tray was a plate of freshly cut yellow croaker fish sashimi, a plate of roe chicken skin, a plate of beans, a few stacks of sauce and two pots of wine.

"Who am I supposed to be? It turns out to be Wu Dalang," Lu Zhishen laughed when he saw Wu Haogu, "I talked about you a few days ago when I parted with Jie Jue and Lin Zheng."

Wu Haogu stood up and bowed to the monk, "Master Zhishen, let's use some together, and then tell me about Master Jiejue and Monk Linzheng."

"Okay," Lu Zhishen glanced at the wine and food on the table, "Why is it so light? Just add more soft mutton and fat meat and good wine."
