Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 569 cleverly borrowing the east wind

"The general obeys!" Su Hai stood up, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes due to excitement, gave a deep salute to Li Canghai, then turned and left the camp of the Chinese army.

"I didn't expect the marshal to have the jade seal on his body. No wonder the marshal wants to come here. It turns out that the marshal has plans in mind!" Gao Xianzhi didn't expect Li Canghai to have the emperor's seal on him. While marveling, he also admired Li Canghai.

Being able to get the emperor to personally grant the jade seal at a young age, allowing him to act cheaply, this is enough to show that Li Canghai has something extraordinary.

However, immediately Gao Xianzhi frowned again, and said: "The general knows what the Marshal is thinking. The Marshal wants to go to Silla by water. The waterway does not need to go over mountains and ridges. It can indeed save a lot of time, but recently the north wind is howling. We wait Wouldn't it be more time-consuming to go against the wind?"

Li Canghai didn't answer Gao Xianzhi's words, but asked Di Qing to push herself out of the tent, then bent over and grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground.

He held the soil, then let it go gently, and the fine sand-like dust was blown southward by the wind.

"General Gao, what's the season now?" Li Canghai asked suddenly.

Gao Xianzhi was puzzled, not understanding why he would ask this.After thinking about it, he still said: "Returning to the marshal, it will be the beginning of winter in three days."

"The time is just right!" Li Canghai squinted his eyes, threw away the dirt in his hands, clapped his hands and said, "Has General Gao heard about Zhuge Liang borrowing the east wind?"

"Naturally, I know this. Could it be that Marshal wants to follow Zhuge Kongming's example and borrow the southeast wind?" Gao Xianzhi asked in surprise.

Li Canghai smiled, and said inscrutablely: "You will know when the time comes. I trouble General Gao to go back to the station and let all the soldiers gather here before sunrise."

Gao Xianzhi looked at him, seeing that he looked confident, he didn't say anything more, and after bowing his hands to Li Canghai, he left the camp.

"Canghai, will you borrow the east wind?" Di Qing asked in disbelief, blinking her big eyes.

"It's a little trick, don't you think it's easy?" Li Canghai said lightly.

Di Qing immediately looked at him with reverence, and said, "Cang Hai, when did you become so powerful? You can even borrow the east wind? Could it be that you and the Jade Emperor are relatives?"

Li Canghai laughed. Looking at Di Qing's big eyes full of expectation, he suddenly became amused: "Qing'er, how can you be so innocent? Do you believe what I say?"

Unexpectedly, Di Qing nodded seriously and said, "I believe everything you say."

Li Canghai was stunned for a moment. He looked at Di Qing, and a small wave suddenly appeared in his heart.

After going through many things, Di Qing is no longer as unruly and willful as before. Instead, she has become a gentle and lovely person, and she trusts him blindly.

There was tenderness in Li Canghai's eyes, he hooked his fingers and let Di Qing listen to him.

After that, she whispered softly in Di Qing's ear.

After hearing this, Di Qing's eyes showed disbelief, and she said in surprise, "So this is the truth about Zhuge Liang borrowing the east wind? But, even if it's what you think, the borrowing is the east wind, and it's useless to sail with us." ?”

Li Canghai smiled slightly and said, "Zhuge Liang borrowed the southeast wind at night, but it will be different during the day. You will know this tomorrow."

"But, what if you guess wrong?" Di Qing asked with a frown.

Li Canghai sighed, and said, "If I guess wrong, then I have to accept my fate."

Li Canghai, Di Qing and the others spent the night in the Suan Ni Barracks.

The next day, when the sun was rising, Li Canghai walked out of the tent.

Gao Xianzhi had already brought all 3 horses, and at this time the Suanni camp was full of soldiers crowded with people.

Seeing Li Canghai come out, Gao Xianzhi and Su Hai went up to meet him at the same time.

"Report to Marshal, all [-] soldiers and horses have been brought here." Gao Xianzhi said.

Li Canghai nodded.

"Marshal, the [-] suanni army is ready to go, and the [-] warships have been packed, please inspect it!" Su Hai clasped his fists and said in a loud voice.

Li Canghai looked at the energetic Suanni army, which was completely different from last night's decadent and desolate army. He nodded in satisfaction and said, "Okay, this is my Tang elite!"

"Marshal, everything is ready, when will we start?" Su Hai asked excitedly, as if he couldn't wait.

Li Canghai squinted his eyes, looked at the banners fluttering in the wind, and said a word from his mouth: "Wait."

"Wait?" Everyone was stunned.

Su Hai, Gao Xianzhi and the others looked at each other for a while, and asked, "Marshal, what are you waiting for?"

"Wind." Li Canghai said calmly.

Gao Xianzhi hesitated for a while, and said: "Marshal, it's almost the beginning of winter, and only the northwest wind blows, how can the southeast wind blow?"

Li Canghai smiled, and said calmly: "General Gao, please be patient."

Gao Xianzhi opened his mouth, looked at him suspiciously, then shook his head in confusion.

From the first rising of the sun to the third pole of the sun, seeing that an hour was wasted like this, everyone became anxious.

"General, what is the Marshal doing? Do you really want to learn from Zhuge Liang?" Feng Changqing asked Gao Xianzhi in a low voice.

"I don't know about that either." Gao Xianzhi frowned and shook his head.

Feng Changqing was a little anxious, and said: "General Gao, seeing that this day has been wasted, if we don't make it to Silla before sunset tomorrow, we will be dealt with by the military law! Borrowing the east wind? He really thinks that his confidant is Zhuge Kongming." ?”

Gao Xianzhi was also a little anxious, but there was nothing he could do. After all, in name, Li Canghai was the commander of the Eastern Expedition Army.

He looked at Li Canghai suspiciously, if he wanted to take advantage of the wind, at least he had to learn from Zhuge Liang to build an altar, and then go up to the altar to do it.

But Li Canghai was sitting in a wheelchair without any movement, just staring at the wind flag intently.

"What exactly is he going to do?" Gao Xianzhi was a little puzzled, he hesitated for a moment, and just about to walk over to persuade Li Canghai to march as soon as possible, Li Canghai suddenly moved.

"It's finally here!" Li Canghai let out a long breath, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Gao Xianzhi hurriedly raised his head to look at the wind direction flag, but was shocked to find that the wind direction flag was blown by the wind and floated towards the north!

Seeing Gao Xianzhi in a daze, Feng Changqing hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "General Gao, what's wrong with you?"

Gao Xianzhi raised his trembling finger, pointed at the wind direction flag, and murmured: "Southern wind! The southerly wind is blowing!"

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and they were all stunned.

Feng Changqing opened his mouth even more, and said in disbelief: "This...how is this possible? How can the south wind blow in winter?"
