Chapter 693: Battle of Yishun



After a day, Xiao Letian was exhausted.

Countless people came to him with a passionate attitude to ask about the details of the paper.

Having never been welcomed like this before, he naturally responded with the greatest enthusiasm.

It's too tiring to deal with them one by one.

But these are nothing. What embarrassed him the most was that someone asked him what it was used for.

He could only remain speechless.

Our superiors repeatedly told us to keep the matter of the hot air balloon secret.

However, his paper was written for the purpose of controlling hot air balloons. Others only knew the content of his paper but were unaware of the existence of hot air balloons.

Even if he had a lot of words, he couldn't explain what the point of writing this thing was, and how he could be promoted to a college degree.

Fortunately, Mo Xiaohu came out to help him in the end and gave him some good advice.

It is said that it will not be long before the hot air balloon is revealed to the world, and then some doubts will be resolved.

In this regard, Xiao Letian could only smile helplessly.

......

"Zhengyi, what is "Fang Zhengyi's Fluid Mechanics"? You published a book, how come I don't know about it?"

Emperor Jing held the newspaper and looked at Fang Zhengyi curiously.

Fang Zheng's face twitched twice, his mind was spinning wildly, and his heart was roaring madly.

Damn, I was careless!

He sought some fame for himself, and now all the people in the court are asking where the fluid mechanics he wrote is and wanting to read it.

Everyone else got away with it.

But I really don’t know what to say to my father-in-law. What if he continues to ask more questions?

Are you really going to study fluid mechanics?

After thinking for a moment, Fang Zhengyi said with a stiff face, "Your Majesty, that... there is no such book. I just made it up. Ahem! In the future, all articles published by Dongjiao School will need to cite previous articles. I just made a sample for them, but I didn't expect them to print it."

"Ha...ha, look at what this has caused. I have to criticize them!"

Emperor Jing glanced at him speechlessly: "Okay, but what's the use of what's written in this paper? I understand it, but it doesn't seem to be worth making such a big fuss in the capital, right?"

"Your Majesty is right. But this is also a new discovery. We just want to set an example for other students and encourage them to discover and create. As for its usefulness, we will have to wait and see how it works in the future." Fang Zhengyi did not comment. He couldn't explain it even if he was asked to do so now.

The prince secretly sent troops to aid Yishun, leaving the Jinyiwei with an extra gap of two hundred men.

I am still hiding the secret. If I tell them about the hot air balloon in advance, coupled with the prince's abnormal behavior, with Emperor Jing's keen sense, I'm afraid he will find out the clues at the first time!

It wouldn't be a big deal if they were discovered, but I'm afraid that he and that kid Li Yuanzhao would get their butts beaten to a pulp!

Let's delay it as long as possible... Let's just hope Yishun can put up a good fight.

......

Yishun.

A battle was just ending, the enemy retreated, and only dozens of corpses were left on the battlefield.

Liao Qun, the general soldier of Yishun, looked at the corpse on the ground with a solemn expression.

Testing...The local government is testing again, this is the third time.

In the past few days of repeated battles, the main force was not seen, and they only made feint attacks to lead the troops into the mountains.

He had been stationed in Shanwei City for two years and was familiar with the tactics of the Yishun natives, so he made deployments in advance.

The troops are divided into two groups, with the eunuch leading one group. The two groups can encircle the main force and accomplish the goal in one battle!

It’s a pity that the natives are too slippery... It seems a protracted war is inevitable.

As he was thinking, a man rode up behind him.

When Liao Qun looked up, his head started to hurt again.

The man in front of him was none other than Cui Jun, the military supervisor sent from the capital. At this moment, Cui Jun was staring at him with anger on his face and asked, "General Liao, why aren't you chasing us again?"

Liao Qun shook his head: "Just like before, they are luring the enemy deep into our territory. The terrain is not favorable for us. We must not chase them! Retreat to Shanwei City first."

Cui Jun was furious: "Is this your only reason for luring the enemy deeper into our territory?"

"I was ordered by the emperor to supervise the army. After several battles, I found that the enemy was just a bunch of chickens and dogs. But you have been avoiding fighting again and again. What is your intention?"

"The enemy has been unable to defeat us for a long time. Do they still take us seriously? If this continues, won't they become even more rampant in the future? If they unite with other strongholds, I'm afraid that not only Yishun but other places will also rebel. Can you bear the responsibility?"

Liao Qun suppressed his annoyance and patiently explained: "Master Cui, I have said everything. We cannot fight for the time being. We cannot fight. The time is not right yet!"

"Don't I want to have a good fight? But my soldiers have lives to live too. Knowing it's a trap, should I let them go and die?"

"Look ahead, the mountains are high and the forests are dense. There are so many people hiding in there, and there are so many traps and mechanisms. We can't defeat them no matter what!"

"The Yishun natives have been stationed there for who knows how many years. The Gan Kingdom also wanted to destroy them, but did they succeed? Even if my Dajing is strong, it will take time. As long as their main forces don't come out, it's normal for this war to last for several years. Let's wait a little longer, until they run out of food and go out to plunder, then we will fight them to the death!"

How many years will it take to finish the war? Do you want me to stay in a garbage place like Shanwei City for a few years?

Cui Jun was furious: "I will not listen to your excuses! Send troops to pursue them immediately! Otherwise, I will report you to His Majesty for failing to supervise the battle!"

Liao Qun's eyelids twitched wildly after hearing this.

He is a soldier, and he is also a man of blood!

This bastard has threatened me more than once, and now he's bringing up this nonsense again.

"Cui Jun! I see that you came from the capital, so I give you some face. Don't be so shameless! If you want to fight, do it yourself! I won't fight!" Liao Qun cursed.
