Chapter 138: No way to visit Taigong in the middle of the night

Wen Zhong saw this scene and hurriedly said, "Marty Su is like this. Except for the few generals you led, we all know magic, so that's of course."

"Now we don't have to worry about the safety of the soldiers, we can escape! It doesn't matter if you don't, we will take you with you!"

"Oh, by the way, what should I do if those foreign free military doctors?" I asked about the twelve disciples of the leader of Jesus.

"They depend on flying!" Wen Zhong replied.

Speaking of this, the twelve disciples have come to us and ask us where we will go next.

I told them that our battle had failed, but I couldn't leave Jiameng Pass and the territory that I finally fought back could not be lost.

So I told them that I wanted to stay in Jiamengguan for a while, and the generals would not leave for the time being, and first look at the portal to the west.

When the twelve disciples saw that there was no use of the temporarily, they told us that they would temporarily return to the side of the leader of Jesus in Sishui Pass to listen.

I didn't say too many polite words, but I saw that the sun was about to set. Under the afterglow, the twelve disciples all grew a pair of white wings behind them, reflecting the setting sun, slowly rising into the sky, gradually moving away in the distance...

I greeted all the generals: "Jiameng Guanlei opens the father and son, hurry up!"

Then I almost took one person to take care of my elderly father-in-law. It took not long to arrive.

It was neither too early nor too late, and it was just in time for the General Manager Jiamengguan to have dinner. When Lei Kai and his son saw me leading a group of generals out of the ground, they were so shocked that they couldn't stop talking.

I walked over, closed his mouth with my hands, and said, "Let your people bring food to you, I'm almost hungry!"

Lei Kai reacted and hurriedly ordered people to set up a large table in the conference hall and greeted everyone to wait for dinner.

I was going to make a separate arrangement for me, but I refused because I had to talk about some things at the dinner table.

After eating half full, I finally had the strength to speak, and I said, "Master Lei, you are afraid that you will fight again in Jiameng Pass!

"Lei Kai just replied: "Abide by the emperor's order!"

I waved my hand and said, "Eat, eat, and say while eating, this is not in the lonely court. Everything is simple during wartime, and some etiquette will be exempted from being exempted from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from being free from

"What I want to say is that we have encountered the Guifang army these two days, and all of them are fierce cavalry, 50,000, only a lot."

"We have lost 100,000 troops and the others have been dismissed. Only Gu will lead these generals to you, because the next time the Guifang troops will feel like they are entering a no-man's land. Siegeing cities is not their strength, but the skill of plundering the land is absolutely excellent. In addition, it is said that there are also capable people and strange people to help."

"In three days, there will be a battle here. Of course, I will accompany you here in this battle. After all, this is the gate of my Western Shang Dynasty."

I said while stuffing something into my mouth. There was nothing I could do, I was hungry and I was still in a hurry.

"What do you need to do? Please give me instructions!" Lei Kai bowed and replied.

"No need to arrange anything for the time being. What we have to do now is to keep the army and horses away and spies find out the news."

"There is a question for everyone to think about together. How can we effectively break the cavalry in the ghost field? We have to defend from the root!" I continued to add while eating.

After saying this, I feel like I have finished everything I want to say, and everyone will continue to have a meal next.

After dinner, Lei Kai arranged a room for me, and Wen Zhong and the others squeezed in, wanting to continue the topic just now.

I said, "I won't talk about these topics anymore today, and this is not a trial that can be achieved overnight. We will discuss it when everyone has matured."

"We will mainly take a break early tonight. Everyone is too tired during this period."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that I don’t want to discuss things. It’s obvious that there is something I don’t want everyone to know, and of course no one will ask me what it is.

That's right. When encountering such a thing, of course I need to find someone - Jiang Xinshang. Legend has it that he will write a book called "Taigong's Art of War" in the future. I have to ask him about this method of using military forces.

As soon as the Midnight arrived, I immediately opened my eyes, and it was midnight. It was time to go find Jiang Xinshang. By the way, didn’t he always ask me for me in the second half of the night?

I quickly arrived in Xiqi with the ground escape and appeared in Jiang Xinshang's house!

The candlesticks in the room seemed to be waiting for guests, the wicks were turned on, and there was a pot of hot tea on the table, and the tea cups were all ready.

I smiled, and it seemed that Comrade Lao Jiang and I had a better understanding.

When he saw that Comrade Lao Jiang was going to work hard, he must have known the purpose of my visit this time.

After about one incense stick, I saw Jiang Xinshang walking in slowly while holding a book.

After coming in, I glanced at me, said, "Here are you here?" and continued to flip through the book.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing? You don't care about me?" I watched him wandering in front of me, and I was not angry.

"Don't worry, wait a moment, it's all your business!" Jiang Xinshang showed a very formal expression at this time.

Seeing that he was so focused, I didn't disturb him, but instead drank tea quietly.

After about another stick of incense, I saw a smirk on Jiang Xinshang's face, and now I felt relieved. I guess Jiang Xinshang has helped me solve this problem more than half.

"Tell me, what's the solution?" I looked at Jiang Xinshang and asked angrily.

"At least, is it good to have some sincerity? You have to ask me if I know your current predicament, and just ask what solution!" Jiang Xinshang put down the book and poured himself a cup of tea.

I looked at the book he had buckled on the table, the cover was "Xiang Jing".

"Is this the latest research result of your Western Zhou Dynasty besides the "Book of Changes"?" I asked.

Jiang Xinshang was drinking tea when he heard this "puff" and sprayed out the tea. I saw that his nose was choking and his face turned red, and water was leaking from his nostrils. He thought he was wrong.

Next, Jiang Xinshang replied to me very uncomfortable: "Stop making trouble!"

"I'd better tell me directly. Who told you to be the current emperor? And the current emperor who 'looked at me'" Jiang Xinshang said, rubbing his nose with a heavy nasal voice on his side.

"This book of Elephant Sutra talks about how to raise elephants, not what you are talking about in the research results of the celestial phenomena and earth images."

"It seems that our Xiqi made a fortune by divination."

Jiang Xinshang continued to rub his nose.

"Then do you rely on raising elephants?" I asked very seriously, flashing my big eyes.

"Yes, it's up to raising elephants. So you know!" Jiang Xinshang replied to me jokingly.

"Okay, I won't be quarrel with you anymore, I haven't taken advantage of any time." Next, Jiang Xinshang talked to me about his thoughts.

It turned out that it was not only Xiqi, but also the Shang Dynasty, which is today's Henan, Qin and Anhui, with a hot and humid climate, which is much better than that of three thousand years later.

Moreover, there were abundant products and a lot of food. Elephants were one of the mainstream domesticated animals at that time, and of course they were used as livestock and in agricultural production.

Jiang Xinshang's idea was to transform and train agricultural elephants into combat elephants, and use elephant formations to completely restrict Guifang's cavalry.

After hearing this, I didn't interrupt anymore because we really didn't understand this thing. I looked at Jiang Xinshang eagerly, waiting for his thesis to tell him - "On the Application and Imagination of Elephants in the Current War".

Jiang Xinshang said that according to his understanding and conjecture, the elephant is huge in size, thick in skin and flesh, and the movement speed is 120 miles per hour, which is equivalent to nearly 30 miles of current speed, so it is very suitable to compete with the equestrian cavalry of the Guifang.

Of course, in war, elephants, like human soldiers, can only use male ones, but female ones.

Using elephants to participate in battle can solve many problems in confrontation with equestrian cavalry:

First, the elephant array has a great impact force. If the speed of 30 mph collides with the impact force of a horse, the relative speed is about 70-80 mph.

Of course, elephants can withstand the impact, and the horse probably has to break the bones.

Second, the powerful destructive power of the elephant formation can destroy the enemy's formation, trample on enemy soldiers, wield long teeth to destroy the fight, and a long nose can also strangle left and right.

Third, elephants are warm and tropical animals. Ghost horses in the north do not have the chance to understand the smell of elephants and are easily frightened in front of elephants.

Fourth, the thick skin of the elephant makes it extremely difficult to kill or defeat the elephant on the battlefield. In addition to performing tasks that impact the enemy formation, the elephant can also become a stable launching position for bows and arrows.

"How is it? Is the elephant with bows and arrows more satisfying than black silk with small tall stockings?" Jiang Xinshang said this and smiled again.

Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel happy: Isn't this exactly what I need? So I asked quickly: "Don't talk nonsense, the most important thing is the time issue. How long do you think it will take to complete the elephant's 'agricultural non-response issue'?"

"It will take more than a year or two!" Jiang Xinshang said, put the book "Elephant Sutra" together and threw it on the table with a "bang".

At this time, he continued: "Although we have special elephant control people now, it is only limited to farming training experience. For elephants to participate in wars, our experience is zero."

"So to train elephants who can participate in the war, especially large-scale elephant arrays to participate in the war, we still need to explore and gather the number of elephants. There is no way to worry about this."

When I heard this, I could only nod my head helplessly, because what Jiang Xinshang said was the fact that without a thousand elephants on the battlefield, this battle was extremely difficult to win.

Not to mention how to train, just the number of elephants will take some time.

Having said that, I didn't ask more, but instead asked, "What should I do if Jiamengguan is done? Can I survive two years?"
