Chapter 1088 Diplomats, Pupils and War II
With a loud "swoosh" sound, I saw a three-uneven arrow breaking out of the string, and it was extremely fast, and it rushed straight towards a running hare that was more than ten steps away. It shot over with an arrow. The hare kicked a few times and died unwillingly.
"I'm hit!" A charming cheer rang out, "Brother, I'm hitting it, it's your turn!"
The one who shot the arrow turned out to be an eleven or 2-year-old girl with skin as snow as snow, her facial features were picturesque, and she looked beautiful. Although she was still young, she already showed a charming beauty...
The beautiful girl is now wearing a strong outfit, riding a fold-eared horse jogging in a small step, holding a buffalo horn bow in her left hand, and holding a right arm in a posture of letting go of her hands. She looked proud on her face, as if she was showing off her own deeds of killing a little rabbit with her own hands. Around her, there were also many young men in brocade clothes, everyone was wearing angry horses, carrying a straight bow and arrow, and looking at the girl who was shooting archery, they all looked like a flattering smile.
This girl is not only beautiful, but also has a great family background! She is Wu Meiniang, the eldest daughter of the current Yan land master Wu Haogu. She is as famous as her name, she is beautiful and martial. I really don’t know which hero can bear it?
The one who was called "big brother" by Wu Meiniang was a big boy who was a little thick and was riding a tall and thin horse. Hearing this, he smiled and picked up the buffalo horn bow, then pulled out a feather arrow from the bag, and handed it to the left hand of the bow, leaving only a feather arrow on the right hand, and then rode his horse and ran wildly.
There were no one who knew who had a family of Haonu opened the doors of several rabbit cages. The dogs barked a few times. The rabbits were frightened and ran away like flying, while the dogs drove away from behind. But how could they run past the Tianjin horse? They were soon caught up by the boy. The boy started shooting arrows twenty steps away. Unlike Wu Meiniang, he shot a continuous pearl arrow, and the shooting speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he shot seven or eight feather arrows. Except for one arrow, the rest hit the target.
The boys around him were applauding after seeing this.
Wu Meiniang was reluctant, and pouted her mouth and muttered: "I clearly shot an arrow!"
"Big sister," a young man named Wu Jie said to Wu Meiniang, "Wu Dalang's hand is one of the best in our primary school, only slightly worse than Wang Zongbi, but his brother Zongbi is over twenty years old."
Another Wu Dalang! He is not a cook cake, but a primary school student who is proficient in riding and shooting, and he is also Wu Meiniang's brother and Wu Haogu's eldest son Wu Yiyong.
By the way, today I was traveling outside this forest outside the suburbs of Hebei District, Tianjin. They were all elementary school students in Tianjin!
At a young age (a few are not young) he is skilled in archery and horses. Of course, he is not a student who can be handed over to ordinary primary schools. They are students of the top three primary schools in Tianjin. About half of them are students of Tianjin Knight Primary School, and the rest are from Nankai Academy and Tianjin Literature and Science Girls' School.
In today's Tianjin, not only students at Knight Primary School can play riding and archery, but even the rigorous academic school of Nankai Academy and Literature and Science Girls' School are very popular. This is not only a formal course, but also a way of travel that is loved by the playboys in Tianjin.
In Tianjin, carrying cages and birds to browse brothels is not a playboy. Being able to play safari and polo is the circle of playboys.
Don’t you have to be proficient in riding and shooting if you know how to hunt? Playing polo will test your skills on horseback. After playing, you can go directly to the battlefield by changing the horse.
In addition, hunting is actually a kind of military training. The ability to fight, especially the wild waves, cannot be fully learned in class and on the playground. You must be outside in order to truly master the skills of field combat, especially cavalry reconnaissance operations, from theory to practice.
Of course, some people like more elegant activities such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. For example, Wang Zongbi mentioned by the old boy, although he had martial arts, he did not like to hunt and play polo with a group of young classmates (he grew up in the old forest. To him, the suburbs of Tianjin were not wild at all, and he had no meaning at all). He liked playing piano and writing poetry. He dressed up as a scholar all day and even gave himself a name called "Beipo Jushi".
Wang Zongbi also has a brother named Wang Xiyin. He arrived in Tianjin almost the same time as Zongbi, but his literary talent was better. Not long ago, he graduated from Nankai Academy and was admitted to the Yuntai Academy of Law. His hobby was calligraphy, and he especially liked to imitate Zhao Ji's thin gold style.
While the "little classmates" were hunting and playing, Wang Zongbi and Wang Xiyin were wearing Confucian uniforms and wearing long swords on their waists. They accompanied Wang Kun (Wanyan Alihe Kun) who visited Tianjin and Wang Zonghan to visit Tianli in the Doctoral Order Building in Yuntai Academy.
Of course, Tianli should worship! Tianli can bless the Hushui Wanyan tribe to prosper and develop!
Moreover, the doctors of the Tianli Doctorate also helped Wanyan Huandu (Wang Xiyin's father) and Wanyan Shishihuan to break through more than a dozen city passes of the Goryeo people.
Not long ago, the Liao court also appointed Wanyan Wuyashu as the governor of the Haidong Army of Dongzhou, and also wanted to enfeoff both the eastern and western realms of the Goryeo Kingdom and the Wanyan tribe of the Tiger Water.
However, the people who came out of the Hushui Jurchen tribe were not stupid. Of course, they knew that the Khitans wanted to cause trouble to the south.
The news that the Khitan lost Yan land has spread throughout Tokyo Road, and heroes from all walks of life are ready to go, and the leader of the Jurchens whom everyone is looking forward to, is also time to jump out to respond to the Song Dynasty and challenge the Khitan.
But after breaking through the Great Wall, Goryeo was like a thin pig that had lost its fence protection, which was barely placed in front of the Jurchens.
Although he is thin, he still has a few kilograms of meat. More importantly, the territory of the Goryeo people is across the sea from the Song Dynasty. Once the Jurchens take over Goryeo, they can establish direct contact with the Song Dynasty.
Therefore, there was a debate in the Jurchen tribe of the Hushui River. The faction led by Aguda advocated immediately rebelling with Yelu Yanxi Gan. Wuyashu was more conservative, advocated taking the East and West Goryeo first, opening up liaison with the Song Dynasty, and gaining support from the Song Dynasty.
At the end of the debate, no consensus was reached. So the respected Aliheren proposed to seek the opinions of Song State first and then make a decision.
That's why Zong Han and Alihe Ren visited.
After paying a visit to the stone tablet with the word "Tian Ru" written on it, Wu Haogu, Mi Youren and Ma Zheng invited guests from the Wanyan family to the inner hall of the discussion.
Wu Haogu had already known the purpose of the guest's visit. However, he no longer had to deal with Goryeo first or settle the Khitan first. Perhaps when the war just began, he was looking forward to having a Jurchen to rebel in advance.
But now, he hopes that the war can be delayed. He now needs to raise enemies and respect himself and need time to consolidate his rule in Yan land. Even the knights and military households who have just been allocated to the land need time to resettle and cultivate and cultivate.
"Let's fight Goryeo first!" After hearing Wanyan Alihe explained his purpose, Wu Haogu was not polite and directly mentioned the Jurchens and made a decision.
He said: "What Goryeo relies on is the Great Wall of Thousand Miles. Now that the Great Wall is broken, there is no danger to defend in Xijing Pyongyang. It is better to take Pyongyang first."
Wanyan Alihe frowned with snow-white eyebrows and said, "But the city of Pyongyang is quite solid, not comparable to the Nine Cities in the Lazy City and Xuande Pass on the Thousand Miles Great Wall."
"It's okay, the Doctors can help you." Wu Haogu shook his head and turned his eyes to Wanyan Zonghan who came with Ali.
Wanyan Zonghan was Zongbi's cousin. He was in his early thirties. Compared with Zongbi, Xiyin was much more rough and did not wear Hanfu. Instead, he continued to show himself to the costume of a Jurchen barbarian. Wu Haogu knew that this person's father was the Guo Luli Wanyan Sagai, who gave birth to the Jurchen tribe alliance. He was very powerful in the Wanyan tribe, and could almost compete with Wu Yashu, Aguda brothers and others who occupied the position of tribe chief.
Zong Han can speak Chinese now, but he did not participate in the discussion. Instead, he kept frowning and watching the two "literati" Wanyan Zongbi and Wanyan Xiyin, obviously not very satisfied with their style.
Of course, the most important thing is that this guy is not convinced by the force of Youzhou Town!
He is different from Wanyan Zongbi and Wanyan Xiyin, who have lived in Tianjin for several years, and he still doesn't know how powerful the Youzhou army is.
"Nianhan," Wu Haogu called Wanyan Zonghan's Jurchen name directly. For the Jurchens, there was nothing rude about it. The name was used to call it, "Have you ever fought with the Khitans?"
"Break Xiao Haili." Zong Han said in a buzzing voice, "I didn't think they were so powerful when I cut off the heads of several Khitans that time."
"Do you still want to cut?"
"think!"
Wu Haogu laughed and said to Mi Youren beside him: "Yuanhui, take him to Fengshengzhou." Then he pointed at Zongbi and Xiyin, "Take Zongbi and Xiyin with you."
Mi Youren looked at Wanyan Zonghan, who was quite brave, and thought it was more reliable. Then look at whether Zongbi and Xiyin were really Jurchens? Why do they look like weak scholars?
"Students accept the order." He was suspicious in his heart, but he had to agree.
Mi Youren wants to be the prime minister, so he is afraid that he can only be with Wu Haogu and cannot be afraid in public. Otherwise, how can he have the prestige to convince the public?
Wu Haogu nodded and said to Zong Han: "The elite Khitans are all in Yizhou on the west road. They are still confronting each other for the time being. They are all deep ditches and high bases, and there is no chance. However, there are opportunities to take advantage of the north, so I will send some Han troops to join, plus hundreds of artillery soldiers to clean up. You can try the knife as well, and see how many Khitans can be cut back?"
This is probably a strange story in diplomatic history. How could foreign diplomats follow their own troops?
However, Wanyan Zonghan didn't care. He just wanted to see how powerful the formal Khitan army was and to touch the trump card of Youzhou Town.
