Chapter 647 comrades-in-arms, comrades-in-arms, close as brothers
At this time, Peter finally knew who the young man who caught him was. (1_1)
At first, judging from the application form sent to Anjia later...
The An family had repeatedly reminded the top brass of the Crusaders to be on strict guard against Lu Heng and Lu Yongzheng, the imperial advisors of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Moreover, he made it clear several times that it would be best to send out capable men to kill this person.
But the higher-ups of the church sneered at An Jia's fuss.
I think Anjia has a businessman's mentality and is cautious and cautious, so it is difficult to achieve great things.
Therefore, An Jia's reminder was put aside.
did not expect,
Peter shook his head and smiled bitterly. Unexpectedly, this thing really happened.
After hearing Lu Heng's question, Peter didn't have any leverage to refuse. After letting out a sigh, he tactfully told what he knew.
"Based on your knowledge of the church, do you think they will trust me to hand over a well-equipped legion to a non-devout believer like me?" Peter sat on the stone, bent down to pick up a branch, and threw it into the bonfire.
Here, he sighed.
Lu Heng smiled and said nothing, just looked at Peter, waiting for him to continue speaking.
Peter smiled bitterly, clapped his hands, and said softly: "The real person in charge of the legion is the cardinal stationed in the army by the church. I am just a tool! Perhaps, I am still an abandoned tool!"
"The legion of this Eastern Expedition had a total of more than 15,000 people at the beginning. These more than 15,000 people were just an advance team. The purpose of the church is to test and step on the road. If your Eastern Empire,
If you are timid and retreat, countless crusaders will set foot on this land in the future." Peter smiled and said lightly.
Lu Heng nodded, then raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where are the legions now?"
"A month ago, the legion encountered a prairie cavalry force near Yongas. It suffered heavy losses. It is still unable to advance." Peter shrugged, his expression did not seem depressed, or even a little sad.
.There is a hint of schadenfreude in his words.
Peter licked his tongue and said with a smile: "So. The cardinal sent me to Kucha Town, hoping to join forces with the people Anjia provided to us before and attack the prairie cavalry from both fronts and open the way to the east!"
"You are so courageous!" Lu Heng said with a sarcastic smile: "A long-distance attack for thousands of miles, a lonely army going deep. This is not a breaking attack, but a protracted war. Tsk tsk. What a talented person!"
"What's wrong?" Peter scratched his head and asked in confusion.
This combat policy was determined by the church after many studies.
At that time, the military generals also participated in the discussion, and there was nothing wrong with it. 1(1)
As for the current predicament the troops are encountering, they believe it is entirely due to poor intelligence and has nothing to do with decision-making.
At this time, when I heard what the legendary wisest man in the Zhou Dynasty said, it seemed that there were huge loopholes in this battle plan, which was very funny.
Lu Heng sneered, looked at Peter and said, "It's a taboo for military strategists to go deep alone. Don't you know that?"
Peter was still puzzled, scratched his head and said, "Who said that? There is no such saying in the West!"
Lu Heng smiled, glanced at him, and said lightly: "Sun Wu!"
"Sun Wu?" Monk Peter Zhang Er asked dully, confused.
It seems that the An family's information did not mention this Sun Wu.
Looking at Peter's confused look, Lu Heng knew that he had never heard of it. He waved his hand and said: "Don't think about it. Sun Wu was a sage from the Eastern Empire more than a thousand years ago. He once wrote the famous "The Art of War"
". This book has lasted for thousands of years and has remained popular in the Eastern Empire. It can be said that all military generals are followers of Sun Wu. Well, Sun Wu's status among Chinese military strategists is just like your... uh,
Pope, or rather, leader!"
When Peter heard this, he was shocked and said: "Doesn't that mean that all the generals of the Eastern Empire can skillfully apply this "The Art of War"?"
Lu Heng nodded, looking at Peter with a teachable look: "It can be said that the difference is that some people use it skillfully, while others use it unfamiliarly!"
Peter opened his mouth wide and looked at Lu Heng in shock. For a moment, he felt mixed emotions and didn't know what to say.
Only now did he realize that they knew so little about this ancient and mysterious Eastern Empire.
In the eyes of the church, they only saw the wealth of the Eastern Empire, but ignored the culture of this empire that had been passed down for thousands of years.
And this all-encompassing culture is the most terrifying thing.
Peter opened his mouth, and finally gave a bitter smile, lowered his head, and sighed: "It seems that those magicians are going to suffer!"
Lu Heng was very keenly aware of the gloating in Peter's heart. Looking at the deliberately sad expressions of this family, Lu Heng shook his head and smiled.
Picking up the wooden stick next to him, he picked out the sweet potatoes buried in the ashes. He dug them out, held them in his hand, and while blowing on the ashes, asked as if he had no intention of doing so: "You don't seem to be very worried.
, does the church have a back-up plan, or do you have a grudge against the church?"
Peter stretched his legs and rubbed his sore thighs with his hands. He looked a little sad and nodded in silence for a moment.
He raised his head, looked at Lu Heng, smiled bitterly and said, "My father was burned to death by the Inquisition!"
Burned to death?
Lu Heng frowned and thought to himself.
It seems that during the church's rule, only heretics were burned to death.
Could it be that Peter's father was a heretic?
Peter saw the suspicion in Lu Heng's eyes, sighed, raised his head, looked at the future in the sky, and sighed: "My father said that the sun is the center of the entire universe. His view completely angered the church
.You also know that in the doctrines preached by the church, the earth under our feet is the center of the entire universe because of the gift of God. So..."
After hearing Peter's words, Lu Heng's expression became particularly wonderful.
After taking a look at Peter, Lu Heng sincerely handed over his hand and asked Peter: "Do you dare to give your father a special name?"
Peter glanced at Lu Heng strangely, wondering why he had such an inexplicable respectful attitude.
"Bruno!" Peter asked in confusion: "My father's full name is Giordano Bruno. What's wrong?"
Lu Heng was shocked.
What happened? What did you say?
Today, I didn’t expect to capture a random prisoner. I actually captured the son of Bruno, a great scientific master and the author of the origin of the cosmology!
This world is so crazy!
…
Because he was influenced by his father since childhood, Peter was not interested in what the church preached.
Later, his father was burned to death by the church. Therefore, Peter was full of grudge against the church from the bottom of his heart.
The reason why he didn't take revenge was that he didn't have the ability. Then, it was hard to understand his crazy paranoia towards his father.
But he didn't expect that in this mysterious east, he would meet a guy who was bolder than his father.
This guy claims that the sun is not the center of the entire universe.
Then, this guy threw out the Milky Way, and other messy theories about black holes and the Big Bang theory. Peter was fooled and didn't know what was going on.
Listening to Lu Heng's lunatic explanation, Peter was shocked. All he could do was look at Lu Heng with admiration and nod vigorously.
No, my faith is not strong enough.
But, what he said really makes sense!
Peter was thinking this while eating roasted sweet potatoes.
After eating and preparing the necessary items for going up the mountain, a group of people broke camp and set off to Tianshan Tianchi.
While on the road, Peter had already begun to make suggestions against the invading crusaders.
My father said: Science has no national boundaries, and all scientists who are determined to pursue the truth are comrades-in-arms.
Since Mr. Lu pursues scientific truth, he is his father's comrade-in-arms.
This comrade-in-arms is fighting against the gang of magicians. In fact, he is avenging his father.
If you are a son of man, what reason do you have to stand by and watch?
Along the way, Peter told Lu Heng everything he knew.
It included the living habits and character weaknesses of the cardinal and other generals and priests, as well as the equipment composition of the crusade and its combat methods. Everything he knew was told.
On the side, Lu Heng, who was deeply moved, shook hands with Peter tightly and said, "The pagoda suppresses the river monster. Er, no, it's a comrade. You have worked underground for so many years, thank you for your hard work!"
Peter was so grateful that he couldn't speak and could only nod.
I sighed in my heart: It's all right. If it weren't for Sir Lu, for the sake of the party and the country, you would have given me a hand, and my brother would still be working for those grandsons.
On the side, Agui and Sang Biao saw the young master once again performed admirable acting skills.
For a while, I rolled my eyes wildly!
Ouyang Rushuang, who was protected by the team and walking in the middle, curled her lips when she saw Lu Heng's hypocritical look in front of her.
"A clever tongue is very insidious!" Ouyang Rushuang said sarcastically.
On the side, Ouyang Mochou covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes full of admiration, and praised: "You can defeat the opponent's high-ranking officials without a bloody blow. This is the highest level of military art. You can defeat the enemy without fighting!"
"Aunt!" Ouyang Rushuang took her aunt's hand and said coquettishly, "Why are you always looking at him!"
Ouyang Mochou smiled proudly and said sweetly: "Because he is my husband-in-law!"
When Ouyang Rushuang heard this, she looked at her aunt formally, and then looked at Lu Heng who was walking in front. As if she had made up her mind, she nodded and said, "Adulterer and adulteress!"
Ouyang Mochou immediately blushed and reached out to grab her niece's waist: "You're such a pretty girl, how dare you tease my aunt!"
Ouyang Rushuang was caught off guard and her aunt grabbed her chest.
As fast as lightning, she raised her hand to cover her chest and screamed. Then she looked at her aunt lovingly, licked her lips, and whispered softly: "Aunt, you have to pity Shuang'er!"
Ouyang Mochou took back her hand, glared at her, and said with a red face: "Go to hell!"
Ouyang Rushuang still wanted to speak.
But suddenly I felt that the silence around me was very strange.
He secretly turned his head and took a look, and found that Lu Heng in front of him had stopped at some point and was looking at him in horror and disbelief.
Agui, Yanyunwei and others coughed vigorously, raised their heads, and looked up at the vast sky.
He didn’t seem to hear anything! (To be continued...)
