Chapter 493: Murderous
"You take me in first, I haven't seen her, I can't reverie out of thin air."
"Okay, let's go in now." With that, Sima An and Qian Xiaodao walked straight towards General Zhang Deda's vermilion gate. The guards in front of the gate saw Sima An from afar, and the people in the entire imperial city knew that Sima An liked Ling'er, but Sima An had already had a marriage contract, and Zhang De didn't like Sima An, he didn't want Ling'er to marry into the royal family, although he didn't say it explicitly, but he also hinted to the emperor and Sima Ke.
"Your Highness, the old general is having a tactical discussion with the future generals of the Imperial City, I think, you still don't want to go in." When Sima An wanted to enter the hall of the Earl's Mansion with Qian Xiaodao, a middle-aged man stopped the two. Although the middle-aged man had respect on his face, he looked very cold, only one family was like this, thinking that this General Zhang De was indeed a hard bone who was not afraid of the powerful.
"Tactical discussions? How can such an interesting thing not call me! Sima An pushed the middle-aged man away and took his money and walked straight in.
"For so many years, our army has also been implementing the old general's idea of marching and fighting. Army combat is not child's play, if you use a tight formation from the beginning, you can highlight the attack and protection of the main battle, take the infantry phalanx of the Second and Seventh Army Corps as examples. This infantry phalanx was usually formed by nobles and commoners in dense formations of more than 20 rows, dressed in thick heavy armor, holding spears, and the further back they went, the longer the spears became, and they were placed on the shoulders of the front rows, so that a real grove of spears was formed in the front of the phalanx, and the rear of the phalanx was usually followed closely by slaves for logistical and nursing work, or javelinmen men constantly threw javelins at each other. On the two flanks of this phalanx, the cavalry was tasked with protecting the flanks from shock. It is clear that the impact of this tactic is far from being comparable to those so-called "sophistication". β
As soon as he entered the hall, Qian Xiaodao saw a handsome man dressed in white standing proudly in front of everyone, talking loudly.
When it comes to military affairs, Qian Xiaodao couldn't help sneering, and said loudly: "But its weaknesses are also very prominent: the rotation of the team is extremely inconvenient, and we must always pay attention to maintaining a tight formation, and large-scale operations may still be able to survive, but if you encounter a more treacherous commander, so that the army with a strict team and obvious combat intentions can only wait to be completely annihilated." β
"Who are you, it's not your turn to speak here!" As soon as someone saw that it was a lewd rat man dressed in brocade who was speaking, he immediately rebuked him.
"Hey, my little brother is itchy for a while, I'm sorry, I'm bothered."
With that, Qian Xiaodao turned around and left. Seeing this, Sima An hurriedly grabbed Qian Xiaodao, he knew very well in his heart that the sentence just now was not something that ordinary people could say casually: "Don't be like this kind of fool, you don't have to be afraid, I will support you." β
The stubborn color in Sima An's eyes was even stronger, Qian Xiaodao at this moment was not like a person in his eyes, but more like a tool for him to play with.
As he spoke, Sima An glared fiercely at the person who spoke, and when the person saw that Qian Xiaodao was Sima An's person, he immediately lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
"It's not that I'm afraid, but I think it's too naΓ―ve and hurts my taste."
Qian Xiaodao seemed to read something from Sima An's eyes, he turned around, scanned the audience, and saw a rectangular table in the center of the hall, on which was placed a war map, and there were more than a dozen colors of flags on the map, including the six colors of red, yellow, blue, green, purple, and black that Qin Niang had said to Qian Xiaodao.
Around the long table sat some handsome young men with good manners, fine skin and tender meat; And above the high hall, a crane-haired and childish veteran sat boldly, leaning on a pretty girl of twelve or thirteen years old beside her, the girl had a pair of smart big eyes, and was frowning at Qian Xiaodao at the moment, obviously very unhappy that Qian Xiaodao had just interrupted the man in white. The veteran sat on the left and right of two middle-aged men, although they were not wearing armor, but they exuded a fierce aura throughout their bodies.
"Hmph, what a big breath, I don't know what to call this one?" The man in white who spoke just now looked at Qian Xiaodao with an unhappy expression.
"Call it to teach, you don't call it, why do I teach first? Doesn't this person even understand this simple truth, or does the teacher not teach him well in the academy? As soon as Qian Xiaodao opened his mouth, he claimed to be the teacher of the man in white, and those who understood this sentence immediately protested, but considering Sima An's identity, he had to suppress his resentment, and stared at the man in white, hoping that the man in white would teach this little mouse a good lesson.
"Humph! Under Deng Annan, he is the chief tactical instructor of the Imperial Academy, and concurrently serves as the military advisor of the Second Army. Deng Annan raised his head and looked at Qian Xiaodao coldly.
"My surname is Qian, the money of Xiao Qian Qian, called Xiaodao, I have no long things, I don't learn anything, I don't have so many fancy gimmicks, today I purely follow His Highness to hang out here." Qian Xiaodao ignored the murderous gaze of others, walked straight to the long table, and arched his hand to the white-haired veteran who was silent in the lobby, and the white-haired veteran kept his eyes closed and ignored Qian Xiaodao. Qian Xiaodao shrugged, and then buried his head in the map carefully.
"Your Highness, may I ask if this yellow represents the Northern Wei Empire?" Qian Xiaodao pointed to the map and said to Sima An beside him, seeing Sima An nodded, Qian Xiaodao stared at the map and muttered, "The problem is very rough, the situation of the empire in the next few years is not optimistic." Hearing Qian Xiaodao's words, the white-haired veteran suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Qian Xiaodao tightly.
"It's ridiculous, my country has a strong army, the national resources are abundant, and several important checkpoints are surrounded by mountains and dangers, so why not be optimistic!" Deng Anan said sarcastically, "You person, don't think that you know a little bit of tricks and sell here, tell you, this hall will gather the military elite of the whole empire, and you are a no-name person who is not here to speak presumptuously!" β
"Tell me, why isn't it optimistic?" The white-haired veteran's words immediately made the man in white change three faces, his body trembled slightly, and he looked at the white-haired veteran with an unbelievable look.
Qian Xiaodao looked around, and a wild and uninhibited smile appeared on his face: "There are three points in total, the first point: Minshangwen; The second point: the majority of those who do nothing; The third point: the monarch is old, and the prince is young. β
"Bold! You little pariahs dare to speak wild words in my Earl's Palace, my lord, take him down for me! β
"Hey, the dignified Imperial Admiral doesn't even dare to listen to the wild words of an ignorant erector. Lian is quite old, can he still eat? β
"Hmph, hahaha!"
The white-haired veteran stood up, exuding a suffocating and powerful aura all over his body, which was murderous!
