Nightmare.

Originally, it was a Buddhist temple that was born and had no quarrel with the world, but now it was shouting and killing, the flames were everywhere, and it was chaotic, Shi Qingyi was covered in a cloak, and she was dressed in blood, and the killing made her completely become a Shura, searching for her prey. All around, there were panicked girls who were fleeing from the wolf, some of them were seventeen or eighteen girls, and there were also young girls who were only a few years old, and there was no surprise, they looked at Shi Qingyi's eyes with a look of fear, because not long ago, in front of their eyes, this terrifying killing star suddenly appeared, rushed into them and began to slash and slash, the splashing blood quickly turned the murderer into a bloody person, and many of their companions turned into a cold corpse.

The savior finally came, and several angry nuns surrounded Shi Qingyi, and each showed their weapons: "Demon girl, suffer death!" Shi Qingyi smiled, looked at these nuns contemptuously, did not look at them in the slightest, the nuns were enraged, and immediately launched a siege on Shi Qingyi, Shi Qingyi instantly drew his sword, and the red silk drew a gorgeous streamer, beautiful, but with the breath of death, when the streamer disappeared, the nuns had all stopped moving, their eyeballs bulged, as if they couldn't believe it, and then their bodies fell, never to get up again. Shi Qingyi showed a cold smile and glanced around, the girls around her looked at her, all of them were silent, Shi Qingyi was very satisfied with this result, she laughed out loud again, hehehe......

Shi Qingyi opened her eyes, is it a nightmare again, she shook her head, looked at the still dark sky outside the window, there was still a long time before dawn, but Shi Qingyi was completely sleepy, she lit a candle, sat on the table, and began to think about something.

Now it is the eleventh year of the great cause, the third battle of Emperor Yang of Sui to attack Goryeo has ended, the two sides made peace, and the Sui army withdrew, but people with a discerning eye can see that the building of the Sui Dynasty will fall, so the conquest is excessive, and the country is in danger, but Emperor Yang of Sui is still proud, and is planning a northern tour, although Shi Qingyi does not know the historical process of this event, but he can also guess the ending, the Turks surrendered, but they were forced by the threat of force, and now the Sui Dynasty's national strength is empty, and the Turks do not take the opportunity to raise troops It is a blessing, the northern tour, It seems that there is more luck than luck, and according to historical records, Yang Guang is about to tour the south, could it be because the northern tour was frightened, Shi Qingyi thought maliciously.

Last year, that is, when the great cause was ten years old, Yue Shan finally passed away, he was seriously injured, it was a miracle that he could last so long, and now he finally couldn't hold on, and he died, Shi Qingyi got the news from Wen Moxuan Zhang Xu, and then, she went back to Xishu to see the life of her little sister now. This walk is more than half a year, when I walked it was the season when the grass grew and the warbler flew, and when I came back, the snow had already fallen, and life was still the same as before, writing, meditating, and wiping weapons, but her words were reduced a lot. And the nightmares, also from that time, haunted her from time to time.

Since he can't sleep, it is also a good choice to wipe the weapon, Shi Qingyi pulled out the red silk, the red sword body showed a fine texture, but Shi Qingyi frowned, and then, with satin, carefully wiped the sword body repeatedly, until these textures were wiped out of sight, Shi Qingyi took the red silk back into the scabbard. "The flaws of the blood sacrifice are slowly beginning to be revealed." Shi Qingyi muttered to himself. There was a feeling of tightness in his chest, Shi Qingyi couldn't help coughing a few times, although it could be suppressed, in the quiet night, it seemed very clear.

In April of the eleventh year of the great cause, Li Yuan served as the ambassador of Shanxi and Hedong, Li Shimin could no longer bear his temperament, so he wanted to follow his father to go together, Shi Qingyi would not stop him, but this time he was far away, Mrs. Dou was very reluctant, added a lot of things, and asked Shi Qingyi to see a joke that was not big or small, and then it was Shi Qingyi's bookshelf, the military book on it, and the biography of the military general was taken away, which was originally Li Shimin's thing, but Shi Qingyi saw it more often, so he simply stayed in his room after reading it, until Li Shimin came to ask for it, he didn't return it to him.

After all, it was about to part, Li Shimin looked at the stacked books, and Shi Qingyi, who was still indifferent, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Can you understand these things?" Shi Qingyi showed a sarcastic expression on his face: "Why, is it only you who understand these things?" If it was still a year ago, then Li Shimin would definitely be like thunder, but in the past year or so, too many things have happened, so that Li Shimin's heart has also changed from being as flamboyant as before to calm, so Shi Qingyi will be serious and said: "Can you sue me, do you see anything from it?" The words were full of sincerity, but it made Shi Qingyi difficult to refuse. Shi Qingyi smiled: "I heard that among the generals of the previous dynasty, you admired Chen Qingzhi very much, so let me ask you, what do you think of the merits of this famous general." ”

Chen Qingzhi, a famous general in the late Liang period of the Southern Dynasty, with outstanding merits, once led a small number of elite Northern Expeditions, every battle must be defeated, breaking hundreds of thousands of enemies, and shocking the Central Plains. White robe, that is, Chen Qingzhi.

Li Shimin pondered for a while: "Chen Qingzhi led more than 10,000 elites to the north to support the king of Wei on the order of Emperor Wu of Liang. Shi Qingyi shook his head, "Although Chen Qingzhi's military exploits are great and the killing is also heavy, it only has the effect of causing chaos within the enemy strategically, neither completely destroying the other party, annexing the other party's land, nor achieving a partial victory, occupying part of the enemy's land, in terms of strategic level, is the most inferior. Li Shimin immediately retorted after hearing this: "This is not a crime of war, the royal family of the Northern Dynasty of the King of Wei is not only afraid of Chen Qingzhi's military talent, but also afraid that Chen Qingzhi is a general of Emperor Wu of Liang, so that Chen Qingzhi is tied, and finally broken by the elite in the hands of Er Zhurong, it is also helpless." Coupled with Emperor Wu of Liang's lack of attention to the war, the backup did not arrive for a long time, and Chen Qingzhi's lone army went deeper, and it was inevitable that he would not be able to support it alone, and defeat was inevitable. Shi Qingyi showed a smile on his face, but he didn't agree with Li Shimin's words, but because: Li Shimin is a teenager after all, and he still has a youthful yearning for a career in Rongma, especially the battle of waving a thousand miles and fighting like a bamboo, and he is even more fond of it, which is a little naïve.

After a while, Shi Qingyi restrained his smile and said slowly: "Know yourself and know your opponent, and win all battles." Chen Qingzhi's lone army went deep, which was a taboo for soldiers, and if you want me to say, he is far inferior to Wei Rui. "Wei Rui, known as Wei Hu in history, is an important military general in the early stage of Emperor Wu of Liang, a lifetime of battles, a hundred victories, in Zhongli, in Hefei, the rate of breaking the strong enemy, the northerners are afraid of tigers, do the song "not afraid of Xiao Niang and Lu Lao, but afraid of Hefei has Wei Hu" This famous general, is the first general in the early stage of Southern Liang, for him, Shi Qingyi is also very admired, therefore, take it out and Chen Qingzhi to make a comparison.

"Wei Rui!" Li Shimin frowned: "Wei Rui attacked Hefei, then Hefei went down, and if Zhongli fought Zhongli, Zhongli was safeguarded, Wei Rui is indeed a famous general in the world, but Wei Rui is very old (Zhongli was over 70 years old at the time of the battle). After all, he is not as good as the young Chen Qingzhi, and most of the battles he has experienced are defensive counterattacks, passive defense, and cannot be said to be aggressive. What Li Shimin said is true, but Shi Qingyi has studied that period of history more thoroughly, and perhaps because of the relationship that is about to part, there are always more words, even if the relationship between the two people is actually very general, "On the army to fight, then to fight, the most secondary is the battle, from this point of view, Emperor Wu of Liang is actually not a qualified commander, although he changed the dynasty, established his own Liang Dynasty, and made great efforts to make the national strength gradually stronger, but in terms of a series of wars with the Northern Wei Dynasty, Emperor Wu of Liang could not correctly recognize the strength of his enemies, so his efforts were useless after all. Shi Qingyi looked at Li Shimin and found that he was bowing his head and pondering, but he did not refute, obviously agreeing with Shi Qingyi's words, Shi Qingyi continued: "Because he underestimated his opponent, his Northern Expedition was doomed to failure, and the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty took the opportunity to launch a counteroffensive and invade in a big way, and the Southern Liang established by Emperor Wu of Liang was in danger of being wiped out in one fell swoop." In this case, Wei Rui turned the tide and successively broke the armies of the Northern Wei Dynasty, reversed the tide of the war, and made the war situation return to the situation favorable to the Southern Liang. And what about Chen Qingzhi? Shi Qingyi smiled, "Again, in terms of strategy, he only played the most important result of causing a certain amount of chaos within the enemy, and the Northern Wei Dynasty itself had already fallen into chaos at that time. With or without Chen Qingzhi's participation, in fact, the results are almost the same. ”

During Chen Qingzhi's Northern Expedition, the power struggle within the Northern Wei royal family reached a white-hot stage, Empress Dowager Hu killed the young emperor, and tried to use the newly born princess to disguise the prince to hide people's eyes and ears and ascend to the throne, and later the news leaked, and the whole country was in an uproar. Er Zhurong in the north set up another son of the clan as Emperor Wei, raised troops to attack Luoyang, and killed the princes and ministers in Luoyang City, Emperor Wu of Liang also got Wei Wang Yuan * who fled to the south at this time, and ordered Chen Qingzhi to be the general, escort him to the north, and take the opportunity to go north, after Chen Qingzhi's army was defeated, Er Zhurong, who was already in power, did not make the north settle down, and soon, he was killed by the Wei Emperor he supported, so Er Zhurong's generals made a rebellion, attacked and killed Emperor Wei, set up a new monarch, and attacked each other endlessly, Then there was chaos in the north. The Liang Dynasty in the south was originally happy to watch the play, but in the end it did not escape this turmoil, and later the general of the north Hou Jing surrendered to Emperor Wu of Liang and rebelled again, which caused a great rebellion in the south, and the people were displaced, and the Liang Dynasty also collapsed and slowly died out.

"I know that you love cavalry charges, so let me ask you, do you know the formation of the cavalry commanded by Chen Qingzhi?" Shi Qingyi suddenly asked Li Shimin. Li Shimin pondered for a moment and shook his head: "There is no record in the book at all, and although I have studied it for a long time, I still have no clue. Because of his love for cavalry, Li Shimin did have a detailed understanding of cavalry battles, but there was no formation that could create an invincible cavalry unit like him. It may also be that the so-called method of Chen Qingzhi to train soldiers is simply illusory, and there is no zài. But Chen Qingzhi's exploits are indeed there! Shi Qingyi explained: "To win a war, the three elements of the army are indispensable: strategy, tactics and individual combat ability. The first two have high requirements for the commander, while the latter," Shi Qingyi paused: "As long as you get the strong support of the emperor, it's fine." "It is rumored that after the defeat of Chen Qingzhi's army, more than 5,000 people were captured, it must be known that Chen Qingzhi went north, there were only more than 10,000 soldiers, the battle was so fierce, the distance of the attack was so far, and the combat attrition was far lower than the convention.

"If my inference is correct, then the price of Chen Qingzhi's army is extremely expensive, so when Chen Qingzhi's army was defeated and fled back to defend the frontier for Emperor Wu of Liang, he could no longer build such an army. Because he did not have the full support of Emperor Wu of Liang. Shi Qingyi said, "Such a high-quality army, although the combat effectiveness is extremely strong, but the cost is expensive, it is impossible to promote it on a large scale, and it may achieve an overwhelming victory in a local battle, but it is insignificant in the overall situation of the entire war." ”

Shi Qingyi knew that his words were not all correct, but there was indeed a certain amount of truth, although Li Shimin had an arrogant personality, but for the right things, he would be very humble to ask for advice, after listening to Shi Qingyi's words, he did not immediately refute, but lowered his head and pondered for a while, before raising his head and saying: "Although your words are full of loopholes, but there is indeed some truth, indeed, after Chen Qingzhi returned to Liang, he never created such an army, as for the reason, it may indeed be the reason you said." However, although this army is a little more expensive, it is not useless, as long as it is invested in the most critical places, it can determine the victory or defeat in one fell swoop. When he said this, Li Shimin was so confident that Shi Qingyi couldn't help but be stunned, as if the hot-blooded young man in front of him instantly became a peerless general who won all battles. What a natural hero. Shi Qingyi sighed in his heart. No wonder Li Shimin, who became Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, killed his eldest brother. Although the eldest brother is generous, it is a pity that he does not have a majesty, and he always can't calm people. Defeated in the war for the throne, he died unjustly.

Li Shimin was a little proud of his success in winning a game, but he didn't expect Shi Qingyi to start thinking about the scene of their brothers' fratricide, after all, they are still brothers and sisters now, if Li Shimin can know what Shi Qingyi is thinking, it is estimated that his good mood will be swept away immediately, and then he will be like thunder, whether to stage an all-martial arts with Shi Qingyi and then be beaten into a dead dog, or jump into the car and flee quickly without saying a word, it is uncertain.

Finally the things were packed up and a big cart was loaded. The coachman threw off the whip, the carriage began to move slowly, and Li Shimin also said goodbye to the Dou family and the relatives and friends who came to see him off one by one, and then rode on the mount beside him.

"Goodbye!" Li Shimin rode on a horse, looked down at Shi Qingyi, and said. "Hmmm! Good bye. Shi Qingyi also replied, she stepped forward and stretched out her hand as if she wanted to caress the fur of the black horse, but the horse immediately seemed to be frightened, immediately spread its limbs, and ran away, Li Shimin pulled the reins tightly It was useless, Shi Qingyi smiled and turned to leave. In fact, the occasional prank is also a very happy thing. The green snake came out of Shi Qingyi's sleeve, wanting to breathe, but Shi Qingyi was afraid of being discovered, so he hurriedly stuffed it back with his hand.

PS: In "Yinhua of the Southern Dynasty", it is said that Chen Qingzhi trained 7,000 cavalry and spent ten years, which is indeed very cost-effective, but this is just a story of the novel. I went to Baidu to check, but I couldn't find anything, considering that Chen Qingzhi really never created such an army after returning to the Liang Dynasty, the content of the novel may be true.
