Chapter 115: The Dispute between Civil and Military Affairs

On the top of the imperial city hall of the Nanming Kingdom, the lord of the Nanming Kingdom sat there quietly with his eyes closed, and in the middle of the hall was a huge map sewn together by dozens of sheepskins, on which the mountains and rivers simply outlined the map of the entire Nanming Kingdom. A few generals wore neat armor and gathered around the map to point fingers, making constant noises.

Among them, Guo Zhennan has the loudest voice, he hasn't eaten well in the past few days, and his temper is even better, and he roared loudly: "You old horseman knows a fart?!" Just a civil official dares to talk to the Sprinkle family about what art of war? Old horseman, you're old scum, confused, aren't you?! ”

The person he scolded was a civilian official, because he couldn't help but say 'this is not in harmony with the art of war' just now, he was scolded for a cup of tea, and his face turned green.

"Humph!" Suddenly, a cold snort came from the head of the queue of hundred officials, and Prime Minister Wei Guangqing stepped forward slowly, first from His Majesty, and then squinted at Guo Zhennan and said coldly: "Could it be that General Guo is despying my literati?" ”

Guo Zhennan was taken aback, he was indeed not afraid of heaven and earth, but he was really a little afraid of Wei Guangqing's mouth. Sure enough, Wei Guangqing continued: "In his early years, General Guo won the title of General Zhenguo because of the shadow of his ancestors, and he even took the name of Zhennan, which can be said to be resounding throughout the entire Nanming Kingdom!" But the old man wants to ask you, General Guo, have you ever fought? Have you ever been on the battlefield? ”

Guo Zhennan said loudly: "The Sprinkle family has been on it!" The sword mountain and the sea of fire come and go freely, and there are countless enemies to kill! ”

Wei Guangqing suddenly realized, and then said: "The old man forgot that General Guo really went to the battlefield, but he ...... I have only been there once, and the official worship of the forward commander, a team of more than 50,000 military horses, with great fanfare, but then General Guo himself lost his armor and abandoned the armor, and the injuries on his body were all back injuries, obviously all the way to escape, just like this, Your Majesty remembered that your Guo family has served the country a lot, not only did not cure you of the crime of incompetence, but was promoted to the rank of knight, and you, the husband, disregarded His Majesty's grace, but blindly played tricks, messed around, and lost the face of the Guo family's loyalty! Now this temple is even more foul language, wanton boasting, do you know the art of war? You may not know how many strokes of the word Art of War, and you dare to speak out here?! ”

Guo Zhennan's face turned red all of a sudden, flushed red, and he was angry in his heart, plus he had not eaten well recently and was malnourished, and he almost fainted with anger. He was angry, not because this was nonsense, on the contrary, this was indeed a fact, and it was also a fact that almost everyone in the entire Nanming Kingdom knew, but ...... No one said it! Always take care of the face of the three generations of the Guo family!

"You...... You...... Old Puff ......"

It took a long time for Guo Zhennan to hold back an old man's scolding. His eyes suddenly opened, and the haze on his face disappeared a little. It seems that Guo Zhennan is deflated, which is the best news he heard today.

But at this moment, a person walked out of the queue again, and as soon as he moved, all the civil and military officers lowered their heads one after another, straightening their bodies, and even made a sound because their movements were too uniform. I saw that this person was seven feet tall, although he was a little old, but he could still be called dignified. Wearing a Confucian robe, wearing a military crown, and a four-foot long sword under his waist, he was dressed in a non-literate manner, but he did not feel nondescript at all.

He is the current Taiwei Yuwen Changxin, the person who took over the signboard of the 'Nanming God of War' from the Ji family.

The Yuwen family was originally a small household, just a few decades ago, in the peerless battle that shook the continent, the Yuwen brothers, Yuwen Changxin Yuwen Changqing, suddenly rose up like a comet, made countless achievements, and consolidated the territory of the Southern Ming Kingdom in the chaos. And Yuwen Changxin's official position is also the only one in the Southern Ming Kingdom who relies on his own hands!

Originally, even if the 'rootless Ping' climbed high, it was discriminated against, and the big gate lords often didn't care about official positions, such as the Ji family, which was second only to the emperor's house in the Southern Ming Kingdom, and now there is only one person in the court as an official, and it is still an insignificant petty official, but it has the power to argue with the royal family. But Yuwen Changxin is definitely an exception, because on the basis of his high power, he is still a gold-level master!

He smiled lightly and said loudly: "Minister Wei's words are wrong, although General Guo has only participated in one battle in his life, he is the first soldier to kill the enemy in blood, and it is not easy to leave a useful body in the confrontation that is twice as large as his own in order to report later." But you, Minister Wei, do you want to talk to our group of horsemen here? ”

In the ranking of official positions, the prime minister must be before the captain, but this is a world that advocates force, and the captain of a country is often the one under one person. But because the Yuwen family background is thin, the two of them are actually equal in power, so they don't like each other on weekdays, but if they have a little bit of a reason, the two of them can quickly pinch each other.

Wei Guangqing narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "The art of war? Oh, the old man began to learn art with Mr. Zhong Nan at the age of four, and at the age of thirteen, he was familiar with the world's classics, and then he specialized in the art of war for five years, and then he was not in practice. ”

Speaking of pride, there are always some celebrities on the mainland that everyone admires, and Mr. Zhong Nan is one of them. Because of his leisurely temperament, he lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, not driven by the heroic. Being able to worship his disciples and become a disciple in the room, and then he had to pass on the classics, which made Wei Guangqing extremely proud. Now that he has taken this out, he is obviously annoyed to a certain extent.

Yuwen Changxin smiled lightly, frowned and said with a puzzled face: "I have traveled to the mainland, seen a lot of strange things, and heard a lot of anecdotes, but people who have never been on the battlefield and have never commanded an army say that they are the best in the art of war in the world, and this is really the first time I have heard of it." ”

The two of them were tense, and they didn't care about their identities for a long time, so words were equivalent to pointing at each other's noses and scolding. The temperature in the hall is also getting lower and lower, and both civil and military sides are glaring at each other vigorously, as if there is a group fight in the market.

"Hmm......" Suddenly His Majesty opened his mouth slightly, and let out a long sigh of relief, which surprised everyone again.

Wei Guangqing knew that His Majesty was not angry, so he changed the topic and said, "Since Lord Taiwei thinks that the old man is just talking on paper, then...... Why don't you compare with the old man to see how good this paper is? Now that the map of Nanming is here, why not divide the generations of Nanming barbarians and gallop on this map? ”

Yuwen Changxin smiled: "That's very good. ”

With a flick of his arm, several golden rays of light fell directly onto the map, transforming into the shape of chess pieces, all over the eastern periphery of Nanming. And said: "In the game of golden chess as a show, the barbarians who came to invade, according to the military report, the number of its army is about 100,000, and it is attacked by the shield of Nanming in four ways, and now it is trapped under the fortress." ”

Wei Guangqing's brows trembled, and he was secretly annoyed in his heart, but he could only wave his hand helplessly, and a lot of blue light fluttered on the map, and he said in a deep voice with some effort: "The old man will use the blue chess as a sign to show me the Nanming Divine Army to resist your alien invasion." ”

Wei Guangqing was very angry because his cultivation was very low, only a blue-level four-star. It was precisely because of this that he simply gave up the idea of practicing martial arts, devoted himself to learning, and then used the secret support of the Wei family gate valve to finally climb to this supreme position. But if he had to reveal his blue-level cultivation in front of everyone, he would inevitably blush a little.

White, green, blue, purple, red and gold, like a moat, through the qualifications revealed by people's birth, divide people into three, six, nine and so on. And everyone's qualifications are almost qualitative, and a lifetime of hard work often can only improve by one or two stars. As for the talent of the color of the exercises...... Promotion is almost a legend.

So the most important thing in the whole continent is talent, something you are born with, and the other is skill, something that brings your talent to the extreme. Secondly, there is the blade, a green-level five-star martial artist faces a blue-level five-star, but in terms of strength, there is almost no chance of winning. But if the green level has excellent exercises, it can also defeat the blue level, if the green level is holding a first-grade blade, and the blue level is empty-handed...... The result...... It's close to torture and killing, and the green level tortures and kills the blue level.

Can face the Gold ...... That level is definitely one step to the sky, and it is only one step away from the legendary immortals, which is naturally incomparable to other qualifications.

Wei Guangqing took a deep breath, and then said calmly: "The barbarians are coming, Tianguan now has 100,000 soldiers, all of them are the divisions of a hundred battles, you can stick to the city defense first, and then the capital guards will send the baggage." Although the barbarians were ferocious, they did not have enough energy to store, and they ran out of water and food in just a few months, and naturally returned in vain. ”

This is the core idea he is talking about, and it is very simple, that is, to consume with the barbarians and bully them poor. After several months of not being able to take the city, they themselves retreated.

Yuwen Changxin nodded and said, "It's to the point, but stick to it...... Hehe, can you hold it? The number of barbarians is 100,000, with 50,000 confronting each other under the city, and the other 50,000 soldiers are divided into two roads, detouring from the left and right, the mountains and mountains are just flat in the eyes of the other party, a team drives directly to the villages and towns around Dawan City, and raids the pipeline all the way to intercept grain and grass, turning the fortress into a lonely city, hehe, I'm afraid that the shield of Nanming will not last for a few months after the water and food are cut off, right? No, no, I don't think I can even hold it for a month. ”

Wei Guangqing said coldly: "Nanchuan Qimai, how can it be light in just a few words?" If you want to attack Nanming, you must go down to Tianguan, this is the consensus of the entire continent, in the eyes of Taiwei, is it a joke? ”

Yuwen Changxin said: "It's useless to talk more, you and I...... This is the beginning, right? ”

How easy can it be on paper? The opponent should try to conform to the facts, such as the method of advance warfare, and the whole army should be notified of the order at once, and the army is almost impossible to change half a day after the army's departure, because the military order cannot accurately reach the head of each soldier in the melee. That's why the battle situation is like playing chess, you have to think of many moves in advance, and blindly follow the rules...... It's just an ordinary general.

The two sat on the ground, slowly controlling those golden and blue light balls, a game...... And so it began.
