The Song Dynasty on the Sand Table

Chapter 3 What year is it today?

Yue Wenxuan looked at his new body curiously. He thought it was made of plastic, but when he looked closely, he found that Guan Erye's body was actually flesh and blood. He pinched his face with his hands and felt the real flesh.

The Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand was no longer made of plastic, but had become a real sword, weighing several dozen pounds.

The Red Hare under his crotch also turned into a real horse with flesh and blood.

The bodies of the Jin soldiers lying dead on the ground were bloody and mangled, which made one feel a little nauseous.

When he looked up at Madam Gong Er standing in front of him, he found that she had also become a real woman, with flesh and blood, and a pair of smart eyes. Looking closely at her facial features, she was not bad looking, heroic and valiant, the type that was pleasing to the eye.

Think about it in 0.32 seconds!
Yue Wenxuan immediately understood. When he looked down at the sandbox from outside, everything he saw was made of plastic. But when he used the plastic man's body to enter the sandbox, he came to a real world.

Madam Gong Er was still confused. After Master Guan Er in front of her said a bunch of inexplicable strange words, he began to look around blankly, pinched his face with his hands, and pulled the horse's mane with his hands. It looked abnormal no matter how he looked at him.

But this person is your savior, so no matter how abnormal he is, you must serve him respectfully and not be rude to him.

She could only clasp her fists once more and ask, "May I ask your name, General?"

Yue Wenxuan spoke. Perhaps because he had borrowed Guan Yu's body and vocal cords, he spoke with the steady and rich voice of a middle-aged man, even with a hint of Shanxi accent: "Guan Yu, also known as Yunchang."

Madam Gong Er was shocked and thought to herself: Is this true?
Yue Wenxuan continued, "What year is it tonight?"

Madam Gong Er trembled slightly and answered respectfully, "The second year of the Jing Kang era, oh, no, the first year of the Jian Yan era, the twelfth month (December)."

Yue Wenxuan sighed in his heart. The second year of the Jing Kang period. Isn’t this the Jing Kang period where “the shame of Jing Kang has not yet been avenged, and the hatred of the ministers, when will it be extinguished”?
He had read in a time-travel novel that it was February or March of the second year of the Jingkang reign, when the two Song emperors were captured by the Jin Kingdom, and the Northern Song Dynasty fell.

In May, Wanyan's ninth sister, oh, no, it was Zhao Gou, ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, changing the reign title to Jianyan, becoming the first emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty. So after May, the Song people changed the name to the first year of Jianyan.

Yue Wenxuan asked again: "Where is this place? What happened?"

Madam Guan Er: "This is the territory of Laizhou. Not far to the northwest is Jimo County. Earlier this year, the Kingdom of Jin... cough..."

She was a little worried that Guan Erye didn't know what the Jin Dynasty was, so she simply changed its name and said, "The northern barbarians marched south, broke through our Han capital, and abducted the two emperors... The main force of the barbarian army escorted the two emperors back north, leaving behind a small force to burn, kill, and loot everywhere..."

When she said this, her expression became a little embarrassed. It was hard to bring herself to tell such a shameful thing to the ancestors.

Yue Wenxuan was digesting the information quickly in his mind. He had an impression of the name Laizhou. It should be in Shandong. The later city of Qingdao belonged to Laizhou, and during the Song Dynasty, this place should have belonged to "Jingdong East Road".

After the Jingkang Incident, although the main force of the Jin army returned north, they left behind several detachments to continue attacking the Jingdong West Road and Jingdong East Road.

At this time, famous generals such as Wang Yan and Yue Fei were fighting against the Jin army in Jingdong Road. However, Jingdong Road was an orphan with no organized Song army. The common people could only spontaneously organize militias to fight against the Jin army.

Madam Gong Er continued, "My father's name was Gong Yi. He was originally an ordinary soldier in Bozhou. After the barbarians broke through the capital, my father came to Laizhou, gathered local warriors, and used Jimo County as his base to fight the barbarians to the death. However, the barbarians were too powerful, and Jimo City was broken. My father and my eldest brother died in battle one after another... I... This set of armor I wear is my father's legacy..."

Yue Wenxuan: "Did you escape from Jimo County?"

Madam Gong Er's face was gloomy. "Yes, the Jimo rebel army collapsed. When the city was captured, everyone fled in all directions. Out of the tens of thousands of soldiers, only a few dozen of us are left."

Yue Wenxuan: "What are your plans next?"

Madam Gong Er said sadly, "The Jin... barbarians are too powerful. We can only avoid their advance for now. I plan to flee to Laoshan in the south to avoid the limelight. After a while, I will come out of the mountains to gather my old men, reorganize the Jimo righteous army, and continue to resist the barbarians."

Yue Wenxuan nodded, thinking: What a courage! A woman can be so brave. What's funny is that the Southern Song court's capitulationists, who have read so many sage books, are each more spineless than the other. Haha.

After answering Guan Erye's questions, Madam Gong Er felt a little uneasy. She really couldn't guess whether this Guan Erye was real or fake, whether it was the real Guan Erye appearing, or some daring person in disguise acting.

Yue Wenxuan: "I already know the current situation! Let me think about it and then talk to you."

After saying that, Yue Wenxuan had an idea: I want to go back.

A huge suction force pulled him violently, and his consciousness was pulled out of Guan Erye's body. It spiraled up into the sky, flew out of the sandbox, and returned to his own body.

The sandbox is still the same sandbox, but everything inside it has turned into plastic again.

Yue Wenxuan stood beside the sand table, looking dazed, as if he had visited the Peach Blossom Spring.

After calming down, he reached out and took out the Guan Yu figurine. At this time, Madam Gong Er was still respectfully waiting for Guan Erye to speak. Just now, after he said "Let me think about it, and then I will talk to you", he stood still, like a clay statue in the Martial Temple.

He didn't move, and Madam Gong Er didn't dare to move, waiting respectfully for the sage to speak.

Unexpectedly, the sky was filled with wind and clouds, and Guan Erye and his horse flew into the air, rose into the clouds, and disappeared without a trace.

Madam Gong Er opened her mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time.

The Jimo rebel soldiers who witnessed this scene were so frightened that they fell to the ground.

Many people shouted loudly: "Master Guan has flown away."

"It really is the spirit of Lord Guan Erye appearing."

"It's not an imposter! An imposter certainly can't fly."

"Oh my God, it was actually Guan Erye who saved our lives."

"Master Guan is mighty."

"What instructions does Master Guan have?"

"There were no instructions. He just said he would go back and think about it before coming back to talk to Madam Gong Er."

The rebels were in chaos, and in panic, they couldn't help but look at Madam Gong Er.

Madam Gong Er frowned in thought, then quickly spoke decisively, "The Jin thieves will be back soon, and we don't know when Master Guan will appear again. We can't just sit here and wait. Everyone, cheer up and continue heading towards Laoshan. We'll hide in the valley first and discuss things later."

"Up the mountain, yes, up the mountain."

"Once we reach the mountain, we won't be afraid of the Jin bandits' cavalry."

The rebel soldiers quickly took action...

Just now, Yue Wenxuan took action and killed dozens of cavalrymen. Their horses were still lingering around the corpses. The rebels quickly gathered these horses, mounted them, and galloped towards the southeast.

Yue Wenxuan watched them from outside the sand table.

As soon as Madam Gong Er moved, the vision in the sandbox began to move.

With a horse, the field of view moves very quickly...

Yue Wenxuan was in no mood to appreciate the scenery on the sand table anymore. While nothing was happening on the table, he had to review the intelligence he had obtained.

1. The sand table is a dimensional prop connected to the Song Dynasty, and Gong Er Niangzi is the "mouse" that controls the movement of vision.

2. You cannot directly intervene in the events in the sandbox, but you can intervene indirectly by investing in action figures and models.

3. The proportions of the model are not important. It will automatically change to a reasonable size when placed in the sandbox. For example, Guan Yu's height is recorded as 2.07 meters in historical books. No matter what proportions of Guan Yu you put in the sandbox, the Guan Yu that becomes Guan Yu will be 2.07 meters tall.

4. Plastic people will only follow orders rigidly. Once there are no orders or the orders are not detailed enough, they will act according to the "initial settings".

5. You can possess the plastic man and enter the world in the sandbox, and gain his abilities while possessing him.

After writing these key points on paper, Yue Wenxuan folded his hands, turned his head, and stared out the window at the ginkgo tree. He let his pupils lose their focus, letting his thoughts run wild: "Without this thing, history is history, and nothing can be done about it. But with this thing, as a Yue, I should definitely take action to resist the Jin. Otherwise, how can I be worthy of our ancestors, Yue Fei and Yue Pengju?"

Although the Jin army is very powerful, I have Gundam.

Wouldn't it be easy to flatten the Jin Kingdom by just deploying a nuclear-powered Gundam "Strike Freedom"?

Just do it if you think of it!

Yue Wenxuan opened the display cabinet door, took out the Strike Freedom Gundam, and placed it on the sand table...
