Chapter 70 Bad idea
Zou Tong's trip was the first conversation between the emperors of the Song and Liao countries.x.
When Han Qi was preparing for a platform alliance, Zhao Zhen wanted to know why two tall platforms were built on this huge platform instead of combining them into one. The appearance of the two platforms was quite meaningful to the Chu River and Han Realm.
This feeling of alienation is not conducive to the alliance, but the two emperors responded the same way, that is, without any modification.
Zhao Zhen sighed and said to Yun Zheng: "Since he wants to fight, let's fight and send a strong general to the stage to tear the wounds on the Liao people even bigger!"
Yun Zheng nodded and signaled to beat the war drums and urge him to go to war.
The Song army formation split from the middle, and a general wearing stern armor walked out of the military formation step by step. The man was more than eight feet tall and weighed more than 60 pounds of stern armor seemed nothing. Behind him were two huge sharp chain hammers. Following his body, the sharp thorns plowed two deep grooves on the ground.
He walked to the middle of the venue and stopped. He shook his wrist and two chains. The hammer wrapped around his arms like a poisonous dragon. He opened his mouth and shouted: "Yun Wu, the commander of the Western Army of the Song Dynasty, is here, and the Liao general comes to die!"
Zhao Zhen’s favorite is a powerful general like Hanniu. He asked Yun Zheng with a smile: “Is this your relative general? Such a mighty person is rare in our Song Dynasty.”
"You can eat, sleep, fight, and follow me since I was a child. I have been eating and drinking hard for years and have never thought that I have become like this.
However, he was extremely powerful, so Weichen ordered people to transform the Buren armor. Now the armor he was wearing could no longer be called Buren armor. It weighed only half of the Buren armor, and the total weight was only twenty-eight kilograms. The armor on his body was also bombarded by heavy hammers and became even thinner. Anyone who thought he was not flexible in shape would be looking for death. Your Majesty looked carefully. The Liao people sent a light-shaped warrior to the field, which was seeking death!"
The Liao people came on stage, but it was very unfair. Hanniu was a general, but the Liao people rode their horses and dared not get too close to Hanniu. They could only stand in the distance and shoot arrows.
The iron tower-like Hanniu remained motionless. He protected his eyes with one hand and let the Liao people's feather arrows jingle on him. A feather arrow shot toward his crotch was flying. Hanniu was a little angry. The chain hammer wrapped around his arms flew out and sealed the road the knight wanted to go around behind.
The chain hammer slowly approached General Liao with a terrifying whistling sound. He saw that he fell off the platform and then left the platform. General Liao leaned his heart and rushed down from the war horse, plunged into the circle formed by the chain hammer's afterimage to prepare for close combat.
The huge chain hammer hit the war horse's head. A huge horse's head was bombarded into pieces by the chain hammer. General Liao, who broke into Hanniu, waved his sword and slashed heavily on Hanniu's body, and countless sparks burst out between the blade and armor.
Hanniu groaned and took a few steps back, threw away the chain hammer in his hand, spread his arms and instead advanced, hugging the Liao general who was rushing towards him. Liao general was caught off guard, and the long sword in his hand slashed heavily on Hanniu's waist. Hanniu ignored it and was hurt by the knife again and again, which finally aroused his ferociousness. With a roar, the scales on his body spread out like a hedgehog's spike, and his arms hugged Liao general tightly like two steel hoops.
The Liao general's screams were so miserable that they were not coming from a person's mouth. Large pieces of blood seeped out from his leather armor, his body was spasming like a live fish in a oil pan, and his hands were scratching wildly on Hanniu's facial armor...
All struggles were in vain. The blood waterfall slid off Hanniu's open armor scales like a waterfall. In a short while, a pool of bright red blood was formed at Hanniu's feet.
Seeing that General Liao was not moving, Hanniu let go of his hand and took a step. General Liao's body was firmly embedded in his armor. This terrifying scene shocked everyone present.
"The strength of the Song Dynasty is that we are smarter. If we can fight wits, we will not fight. We can design terrifying weapons that can be manipulated without too strong manpower. We should not let people fight with strong enemies in person. In this way, our army of Song Dynasty can become professional. With powerful weapons, the longer the soldiers will serve, and the slower they fight will become professional.
When a large number of soldiers regard war as a profession, the military reform of the Song Dynasty was completed.
Your Majesty doesn’t need to worry about the problem of being too big. You should know that the stronger the weapon, the more it depends on logistics. Without logistics support, the weapon in the army is just a piece of scrap iron. Only at this time can literati who have received special military training enter the army in large numbers.”
Yun Zheng took the opportunity to advise the emperor about his military propositions.
Zhao Zhen said: "What I love says is very reasonable, but military reform is the top priority of the dynasty. You may as well record your thoughts and memorials in detail and submit them to me and all the ministers.
Since my dear said that the people of Liao will sooner or later surrender to the majesty of our Song Dynasty, I might as well show it now so that these barbarians can understand the power of our Song Dynasty. Seeing that the sun is setting, my patience is not enough to support tomorrow!"
Yun Zheng nodded, and the war drum sounded again. When the Hanniu in the field heard the sound of the drum, he ran away. He didn't even have time to pick up the chain hammer. He could hear it very clearly. This was the drum beat that the phosphorus fire bomb was about to cover the fire. If the thing was touched a little, it would be a big problem.
The embarrassed Hanniu just ran back and heard a sound from behind the military formation. When he looked up, countless phosphorus bombs flew over his head.
The elevation of the crossbow is very high. The phosphorus fire bombs fly to the middle of the flat platform and explode in the air. Countless tiny flames that are almost invisible to the naked eye fall from the sky. The swaying and falling speed is very slow, but they will burn wherever they fall.
So the dead Liao general's body began to creak and burn, the pool of blood on the ground burned, the soil also began to burn, and the hammer of the Hanniu's chain began to burn, although the burning place was only two or three acres in size, both the monarchs and ministers of the Song Kingdom and the Liao Kingdom believed that the whole world seemed to be burning.
This is a rain of fire, and when it falls on the ground, it will burn everything.
"Are the brothers Huata dead under this object?" Yelu Hongji looked at the colorless flames opposite. He looked at the Song king and minister who had already distorted due to the changes in the airflow.
Seeing Yelu Xin nodding in pain, Yelu Hongji said sadly: "If it weren't for this flame from hell, I wouldn't have hurt the invincible Huataer.
Send someone to tell the monarch of Song that his subordinates can negotiate, and I want to take a break when I am tired. It will not be too late to practice the drum and music ceremonial guard tomorrow."
"Your Majesty, can one of my niece's arms be lost in vain?" A girl in military clothes asked boldly holding Yelu Hongji's robe and sleeves.
Yelu Hongji pointed to the purgatory on the platform in dismay, saying, "Hongzhuer, current affairs are better than people. Even if I have tooth-cut hatred, I can only endure it for the sake of the great Liao Dynasty."
The girl's eyes were filled with tears, and she let go of Yelu Hongji's sleeves and said, "I don't care. Xiao Yin was plotted against by the evil thief Zhao Zhen and lost an arm. This account must be settled clearly with Zhao Zhen."
Xiao Guanyin, who had been sitting behind Yelu Hongji, suddenly said: "Hongzhuer, the warriors of the Great Liao Dynasty have died in vain to avenge me. Now, the Great Liao Dynasty is in need of warriors, and they cannot lose their lives here in vain."
The girl in military uniform shouted: "My daughter of Xiao family has not suffered such insults yet. It was the Emperor who taught us that she would be revenge. You dare not go. I will go!"
Xiao Guanyin hurriedly ordered the eunuchs around to block Xiao Hongzhu from letting her leave her. Those eunuchs dared to approach Xiao Hongzhu, the pearl in the palm of the nobles of the Liao Kingdom. As soon as they walked up to them, the man who was whipped by her was overturned. Then they rode on their own war horses, rushed out with a long knife.
‘Your Majesty!” Xiao Guanyin cried out in tears.
"Let her go, she is a little girl, and the people of Song dare not hurt her."
"Yun Zheng has many tricks..."
"No, if Yun Zheng even hurts a woman like Hongzhuer, then he would not have to worry about it."
The king and minister of the Song Dynasty were originally enjoying the wonders in front of him happily, but suddenly they saw a red area carefully rushing over the fire.
Zhao Zhen put down the ice dew in confusion. After looking at it for a while, he realized that a woman was flying over, so he laughed and said, "The Liao Kingdom is so poor! Send a woman to the battlefield."
The important officials sat down and laughed loudly, especially Shi Zhongxin laughed happily, and actually stood up and said to the emperor: "I have always been good at capturing women. If you let me take this formation, I will definitely be able to capture them by hand. If I just catch them, the old minister will not plan to put them back."
"Hahahaha..." The king and minister of Song on the stage laughed even harder. Even the geniuses in various dresses pointed at Xiao Hongzhu.
"Zhao Zhen! Come out and die!" Xiao Hongzhu rushed to the Song State high platform less than thirty steps and tied the reins, pointed at Zhao Zhen on the platform with a knife and drank it.
Zhao Zhen's face suddenly turned dark. I don't know how many years no one pointed at his nose and cursed. He was about to get angry but listened to the ritual official Song Shou whispering: "Although this woman is rude, she can barely make sense. Her name is Xiao Hongzhu, and her grandmother is Xiao Chuo! She is the real phoenix clan of the Liao Kingdom. Although her status is a little lower than that of Your Majesty, she can still call Your Majesty's name directly."
Zhao Zhen's nose was about to be crooked, and he pointed at Xiao Hongzhu who kept shouting and scolding below and said, "What is she? You dare to compare with me."
Song Shou smiled bitterly and said, "When Song and Liao signed the Chanyuan Alliance, it became a brotherly country. If you count carefully, your majesty's seniority seems to be lower."
Zhao Zheng almost choked to death by this sentence, looked at Yun Zheng with a messy look and said, "Isn't you able to deal with this?"
