Chapter 123 Adaptation of the Twelve Verses of Grammar

Raven pondered for a moment and said, "Have you ever heard the phrase 'learn 300 Tang poems, and if you can't write them, you will steal them'. ”

"I've heard of it. You mean, let me put the other books together?"

"Yes, just understand what it means, and then explain it and add your own opinions. ”

"But this is going to be published, will it be accused of plagiarism?"

Raven pondered for a moment and asked, "You are annotating the writings left by your ancestors, why should you be accused of plagiarism?"

"Notes?" Qi Binxuan's voice unconsciously raised a few points, and asked in surprise: "Didn't you say that you wanted to write a military book before?"

"Shhhh Raven reminded, then said, "Maybe you're misunderstood. What I mean is to write a military book with the help of your ancestor General Qi, and then you add some modern applications or some unique insights to the basis of his military book. In this way, you are making additions on the basis of your ancestors' military books, and you can't say that your ancestors copied them. ”

Qi Binxuan smiled bitterly and said, "Raven God, can you speak clearly next time." I followed your train of thought and did a lot of useless work. ”

"Okay, got it. Raven replied casually, "You don't use your mind much yourself." ”

"Well, now I know the relationship between strategy and tactics that you told me earlier. What you say is strategy, and what I execute on this basis is tactics, and if you misunderstand strategy, you will have to do a lot of work on tactics. ”

Seeing that Qi Binxuan remembered what he had said before, the raven was very happy and said, "Okay, if you still need help, just tell me directly, or call." ”

"Yes, okay. Qi Binxuan nodded, after all, one more person means more ideas: "By the way, do you have something to do today?"

"It's nothing, it's just a little bit of a carvin, here for inspiration. ”

"How can I help you?"

"No, I'm already inspired. After speaking, the raven turned away, leaving Qi Binxuan with a blank face.

Qi Binxuan felt a little inexplicable, and asked Luo Hongyi, who was peeking at the table while wiping the table, "Did the raven take the wrong medicine today?"

"Yes, that's right. She had taken the wrong medicine. Luo Hongyi nodded like pounding garlic, and then added: "You should also take medicine today." ”

Now Qi Binxuan felt even more inexplicable, he was not sick, what kind of medicine did he take.

Qi Binxuan found some books on the art of war from the Internet, bookstores, and libraries, and began to watch them, preparing to forge the military books of his ancestor General Qi. The name of the book of war was very popular, it was called "Qi's Art of War", and the book he compiled later was called "Qi's New Interpretation of the Art of War".

He studied a lot of military books, what "Guiguzi", "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Sun Bin's Art of War", "Zhuge Liang General's Garden" and so on, the more he came into contact, the more Qi Binxuan felt the infinite wisdom of the ancients, and at the same time, he also felt ridiculous for his idea of wanting to write a military book alone, which really underestimated the world.

Qi Binxuan wrote an outline for "Qi's New Interpretation of the Art of War". Qi's art of war is extremely rich in content, involving politics, economy, diplomacy, strategy, tactics, army building, national defense construction and national defense mobilization, staff and secrecy work, military geography and various tactical issues, the system is complete, all-encompassing, can be called the masterpiece of the development of military science in China's pre-Qin period.

After that, Qi Binxuan began his shameless plagiarism work. Copying a little here and digging a piece there, forming the main body of the military book.

Just when Qi Binxuan typed out the draft and proofread it bit by bit, he ushered in the ridicule of the raven: "Boss Qi, you're not right." ”

"What's wrong?" Qi Binxuan was now accustomed to the elusiveness of the raven. He found that since he started writing a book at the Raven's suggestion, the Raven had been running to him twice in three days.

"It's the same, you have to pay attention to the definition of plagiarism in literature. Let's not talk about the plagiarism of the point of view, you can at least reorganize the sentence, you can't copy one sentence without moving the original text, and copy a pair of that. In this way, someone really gets to the bottom of it and finds that it is all in other art of war, how can they get by?"

"Hey, when you say that, I feel like I've done all the useless work. ”

"Not really, your layout is pretty good. For example, the first article talks about the development strategy, the second article talks about war strategy, the third article talks about army building, the fourth article talks about national defense construction, and so on. Now that you've put the approximate points together, that's the second step. The third step is to absorb these opinions and discussions, and then improve and supplement them according to their own ideas and experiences, and finally describe them in their own sentences. In this way, a military book is basically completed. ”

Qi Binxuan looked at the ancient texts one by one and felt a little headache.

Raven asked, "Why don't you speak?"

"Looking at these articles, I feel that it is good to be able to translate them. I have to supplement and improve it, and it becomes my own sentence, and I feel like I have a big head when I think about it. ”

"It's actually quite simple. "Maybe it's because the raven is a great god.,I often adapt it like this when I'm writing novels.,So I didn't think there was anything difficult.。

Raven pointed to an excerpt from Qi Binxuan and said, "I'll give you an example. This is the Twelve Schemes. Good guy, this has to be five or six hundred words, right, why don't you adapt it yourself?"

Qi Binxuan looked in the direction pointed by the raven, and saw that the original text was indeed written a lot.

King Wen asked the prince: "What is the law of Wenhua?"

Taigong said: "There are twelve verses in all Wenfa: one said, because he likes it, and follows his will, he will be arrogant, and there will be adultery." If you can do it, you will be able to go to it; One man has two hearts, and one of them will decline. If there are no loyal ministers in the court, the society will be in danger......

Qi Binxuan himself sighed, even the characters were not deleted, and the plagiarism was too obvious, so he sneered: "Hehe, the time is too tight, and I haven't bothered to revise it." ”

Raven didn't expose him to his lies, and said, "You must at least revise these ideas and change the number of them." You see he's the twelve, which is the twelve. You can delete and merge them into the Eight Methods of Literary Attack, or refine and add them to become the Thirty-Six Methods of Tiangang. ”

"Thirty-six is too exaggerated, isn't it?"

"I haven't said the seventy-two methods yet. Isn't it just to think about all aspects more, and find more people to ask. If you want too much, you can have the 24 Nakshatras. ”

Qi Binxuan thought for a while and asked, "How do you get the merger and deletion you said?"

The raven pointed to the original text and said: "You see that in the third article, the evil bribes are very deep; in the sixth article, the internal and external affairs are only the ministers and foreign ministers; and the twelfth article is to raise their rebellious ministers to be fascinated, in fact, the meanings are very similar, all of which are to be close to the close ministers of the enemy king, to support the traitors of the enemy country, to let the ministers communicate with foreign countries, and to confuse the mind of the sovereign. These can be illustrated as a piece. ”

"Yes. Qi Binxuan stared at these three, six, and twelve articles, looking at this classical Chinese, he knew every word, but when they were put together to form a sentence, how could it feel so strange. How does the raven see that these three mean the same thing?

The raven thought that he did not understand, so he went on to give an example: "There is also the fourth article in which he is supplemented with lewd pleasures, in order to broaden his ambition, bribe pearls and jades, and entertain beauties, and in the twelfth article, he is in the United States, and the voice is confused, all of which are about ......."

"I know that. Qi Binxuan finally understood one and said: "It's all about beauty tricks, which can be combined." ”

Raven said, "yes, don't you understand?" ”

Qi Binxuan looked at the manuscript printed out in his hand and sighed: "Look at this thickness, and then delete it, I'm afraid that the content is a little less, and I have to find some materials." ”

"Hey, why do you only say delete? You can also add content, one plus one subtraction, the number of words hasn't changed much, it's almost enough. ”

"It's too much trouble to add. ”

"What's the trouble?" said the raven, "After you are familiar with these twelve situations, you can add the information that has not been introduced here in combination with historical facts, biographies, etc." Even if the increase is not much, why don't you list a few more of them?"

"You're saying it's simple, try to give an example. ”

"Alright then, let this great god teach you. Then the raven pointed to the twelfth verse and said, "Take this as an example." You see, the most introduced here is how to deal with the courtiers of the enemy country. In verse 12, there are three main types of courtiers, one is a close minister, one is a loyal minister, and the other is a traitorous minister. At the same time, five ways to deal with these three types of courtiers are introduced. But, if you think about it, can there only be three kinds of courtiers?"

Qi Binxuan thought for a long time, couldn't think of a reason, and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Of course, everyone is in a different position, so they have different perspectives and positions. Don't look at the author of Liutao is a very famous figure, but no one is perfect, he may also have things that he can't see, and with the changes of the times, some of his theories may also have some deficiencies or inapplicability. For example, are there traitors other than loyal ministers? Are there any courtiers who are neither loyal ministers nor traitors? Just like party disputes, there are also neutrals. ”

"Well, that's one aspect. ”

"Also, you see that he only considers the courtiers, but in today's society, the role of the courtiers may not be the greatest. Wouldn't inventors, for example, wealthy businessmen have to be taken into account? Doesn't that add two more points?"

"Yes, yes. ”

"There is also the economic warfare that is not introduced in it, and through some means, suppressing the economic growth of the enemy country, this is also a new kind of cultural warfare. ”

Qi Binxuan thought of a rare question and said: "In the era of General Qi, was there such a thing as economic warfare?"

"Can you write it as your own commentary in the new edition? Besides, in fact, there was also a talk of economic warfare in ancient times, such as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the affairs of Yue and Wu. Yue Guo's agricultural harvest was poor, so he borrowed rice seeds from Wu Guo, and Wu Guo generously lent them to Gou Jian. When Wu was hit by the disaster, he borrowed seeds from Yue State, and Gou Jian asked the people to cook the rice seeds lent to Wu State before transporting them to Wu State, resulting in the failure of Wu State's grain harvest and starvation of countless people. Gou Jian explained that this was due to the fact that the land of Wu was not suitable for growing rice from Yue. In an agrarian country, suppressing agriculture is also an economic warfare. ”

"Hey, listening to your explanation, I feel that what we are popular now is the ancients playing leftovers. Qi Binxuan said with emotion.
