The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 104
It rained heavily all night, and there was no other sound in the whole world, only the sound of the rain continuously hitting and washing away everything.

The thunder and lightning had stopped showing off, and the wind had dropped a lot, but the rain showed no sign of weakening at all.

The water on the entire city wall flowed over the top of the city. Fortunately, drainage holes were left when the city wall was built. At this moment, the rainwater is flowing towards the direction of the drainage holes. The outer facade of the city wall seems to be hanging on a Hanging like a huge waterfall, the rainwater rushed down, and flowed into the moat below from the drainage channel dug in advance.

The moat, which had no water at all, had already swelled and was about to overflow at this time, turning into a veritable moat.

Looking around, the whole world seems to have turned into a vast ocean, nothing can be seen clearly, and all that comes into view are a series of rapid rain lines.

Jiang Chuan lived in the city tower all night, and had a long talk with Liu Ji all night, talking about the upcoming battle to defend the city, and also about future planning strategies.

The two also had a deeper understanding of each other during this conversation.

Liu Ji was often amazed by Jiang Chuan's unique insights and perspectives on many issues, and felt that many problems that he had previously been unable to figure out suddenly came to light.

And Liu Ji's erudition made Jiang Chuan admire him even more.Liu Ji is not only familiar with military strategists, but also yin and yang, geomancy, agriculture and so on.As for the theories of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, it is not a problem.What particularly interested Jiang Chuan was that Liu Ji was a staunch supporter of authentic Legalism.

Unexpectedly, there are hundreds of schools of thought in this world, which surprised Jiang Chuan.

Of course, their representatives were not the names Jiang Chuan was familiar with.

But what surprised Jiang Chuan the most was that Liu Ji was also good at swordsmanship and archery.

Jiang Chuan didn't believe it at first, thinking that the long sword on Liu Ji's waist was as flashy as the folding fans those scholars used to pretend to be coquettish.

But after Liu Ji took off the long sword in front of him and performed a swordsmanship with agility and vigor that was not comparable to his age, Jiang Chuan couldn't believe it.

Although Liu Ji's swordsmanship couldn't compare with those on the battlefield that killed the enemy with one move, Jiang Chuan could also see that Liu Ji's swordsmanship was not just a show, but could be used to kill people.

As for archery, Jiang Chuan asked someone to find an archery target. He thought it would be good if Liu Ji could hit it ten steps away.

But who would have thought that Liu Ji shook his head again and again, and still shook his head at thirty steps.

Jiang Chuan was so cruel that he let someone put him in the tower as far as he could, which was fifty steps.

But looking at Liu Ji's appearance, he still seemed dissatisfied.

But there is no way, now there is no way to shoot arrows outside.

Jiang Chuan handed Liu Ji his bow and arrows, which are authentic two-stone bows.At the beginning, Jiang Chuan himself said that he couldn't pull it.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ji shook his head and asked for a longbow for infantry archers from a crossbowman.

The bow arm of this longbow is nearly two meters long. It is a hard bow made of a single wooden stick, and it is quite laborious to pull it up.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ji skillfully drew the bow and set the arrow, then drew the bow for a full moon, aimed at the target for a while, and the arrow flew out.

There was a beep, and it was obvious that the arrow had hit the target.

Jiang Chuan couldn't wait to walk over and saw that he was shocked. The arrow was nailed to the red heart of the target, and it penetrated nearly an inch.

Looking at the arrow whose tail was still trembling slightly, Jiang Chuan couldn't help admiring: "I didn't expect my great military strategist to be a master of archery, it's really hidden."

The surrounding soldiers also cheered in unison.

Liu Ji returned the bow to the soldier, and said a little embarrassedly: "My lord, you are absurd. I started to practice swordsmanship and archery when I was young. In fact, I just thought that one day I could imitate the ancient famous generals to fight the enemy and serve the country. What I have learned in my chest. I didn’t expect that after so many years, I would never have the opportunity to display it. If I hadn’t had a lot of fun with the lord today, I wouldn’t have made a fool of myself in front of the lord.”

Jiang Chuan took Liu Ji's arm and said with a smile: "Military advisors don't need to be self-effacing. I think I found a treasure today. Not only did I gain a military advisor, but I also added a general. Military advisor, do you think so?"

Liu Ji laughed at Jiang Chuan's words: "The last general takes orders, my lord, please give orders!"

Jiang Chuan didn't expect Liu Ji to have this old naughty side, he was taken aback for a moment, then pointed at him and laughed again.

Suddenly, the gate of the tower opened, and two figures in coir raincoats flashed in. As soon as they entered, the water on the straw coir raincoats and bamboo hats pooled under their feet.

"The Tartars outside were shivering in the rain, but the two inside were chatting loudly and smiling happily. I don't know what Naduo will look like when he finds out." The person in the lead suddenly said loudly.

Jiang Chuan was taken aback for a moment, the voice sounded so familiar, it seemed to be his own voice.

Liu Ji was also taken aback, and turned to look at the person who came.

Seeing Jiang Chuan in a daze, the man raised his hand and took off the hat on his head, revealing an extremely handsome face, looking at Jiang Chuan with a smile.

"Why is it you?" Jiang Chuan looked at this face with astonishment, and blurted out involuntarily.

He never expected that the person in front of him would be Bai Jinxiu. Could it be that she was imitating his voice just now?
Bai Jinxiu smiled and said nothing, but the person behind him spoke.

"Hee hee, my lord was taken aback. Let me tell you, our young lady has a lot of skills, and this ventriloquist is nothing. Our young lady can also imitate the calls of various birds and beasts. Well, it looks like it. Last time we were in the mountains, when Miss was practicing ventriloquism, a large group of birds were attracted to circle around Miss."

The speaker took off the bamboo hat while talking, revealing a cute round face with a smile. Naturally, he was Bai Jinxiu's personal servant girl, Xiao Wen.

"I didn't expect Miss Bai to have such abilities. It's really incredible. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I really thought I saw a ghost." Jiang Chuan greeted him and smiled.

"You are the ghost, a ghost without conscience." Bai Jinxiu gave him a white look, and muttered in a low voice.

Although the voice was not loud, Jiang Chuan just heard it.

Jiang Chuan was indeed a little embarrassed. When he asked someone to deliver the letter in Datong, the girl agreed without hesitation.But it's been so many days since he came back, and he hasn't had time to say thank you to him yet.

This is indeed a bit unreasonable, so Jiang Chuan smiled and dared not say any more, for fear of being complained about again.

Liu Ji also came over and said with a smile: "Miss Bai is amazing, it opened Liu Ji's eyes. It's raining heavily, why are the two girls here?"

Bai Jinxiu glanced at Jiang Chuan, her face flushed slightly, but she didn't speak.

The little girl Xiaowen rolled her eyeballs and said with a sweet smile: "My lady knows that the husband and the young master must be guarding here, and must have not eaten yet, so I specially made some small dishes for the two of you."

This time, Jiang Chuan found that both of them were carrying a wooden food box in their hands.

Liu Ji looked at the shy Bai Jinxiu, then at Jiang Chuan who was confused, and laughed loudly: "Oh, I am really blessed today, and I have been blessed by the lord again. The rain is so heavy, the two girls It's hard work, let's go upstairs and clean up."

As he said that, Liu Ji took the initiative to take the food box from Xiaowen's hand, and walked to the top floor of the tower, which was a place specially prepared for generals to rest and command.

Jiang Chuan could only smile awkwardly, and stretched out his hand to pick up the food box in Bai Jinxiu's hand, wondering if he was a little nervous, and accidentally touched the back of the girl's white, tender and smooth hand.

He was fine, but Bai Jinxiu let out an "ah" in surprise, instinctively let go of her hands, and almost threw the food box on the ground.

Fortunately, Jiang Chuan was quick and caught him. Looking at Bai Jinxiu, his face was already blushing.
