Li Kou was reading, borrowing books from the library of the Panyuan County Yazang.

This is a great work of military theory written in the Song Dynasty and compiled by Zeng Gongliang of Tianzhang Pavilion and Ding Du, the governor of the Ministry of Works.

That is, "General Essentials of the Martial Arts".

What Li Kou is holding in his hand is only the last episode, and there are twenty episodes in total.

This is exactly what Li Kou needs.

He doesn't know military strategy, so how can he know what marching and fighting is.

However, Li Kou knew that in order to understand the military strategy, it was necessary to have a prophetic army, that is, the military system and operational characteristics of the current society.

In order to make civil and military officials, especially border officials, familiar with military equipment, he almost printed and distributed to the county government to think that the "General Essentials of the Martial Arts" was the book he urgently needed.

Li Kou found this book in the county government library, and saw that the cobwebs were full of Xiao Suo's heart.

He asked the priest to take it back to his lodgings if there was no problem with it.

Under the lamp, Li Kou was reading through the formation of the troops and the two parts of the marching camp.

He doesn't know anything about the yin and yang celestial phenomena for the time being, he roughly knows some geography, especially the terrain of the village, and he doesn't care about anything else for the time being, as long as he knows how to set up camp and arrange sentry posts, so these two episodes are treasures for him.

Li Kou understood that it was a mastery of the local weather rules and the particularity of the terrain, how to camp on the plains, how to camp under the mountains, how to use the river without being constrained by the river, and how to ensure that the enemy left enough time to react when the enemy attacked.

In Li Kou's opinion, this is the education he urgently needs at present.

Li Kou was fascinated by it, and drew the terrain by hand while looking at the theory.

He was thinking about how to set up camp in the mountains of his hometown.

Suddenly, there was a low laugh behind him: "Da Lang is really a seed of reading." ”

Li Kou looked back, and Murong Yanda didn't know when it had come.

"Look." Murong Yanda smiled and said, "I heard that Da Lang borrowed the military book from the library, I'll see if there is any gain, how about it," he pulled a chair and sat down, jokingly, "Is this incomplete "General Essentials of the Martial Arts" a frustration?" ”

Li Kou looked at the book strangely, this is an abridged version?

Murong Yanda smiled shamefully: "These magistrates from literati know what the truth of marching is, but they just have to deal with the inspection of the officials." ”

He reached out and took the two episodes of the war book, looked at it and shook his head.

"There is a complete collection of the "General Essentials of the Martial Classics" in my study," Murong Yanda hesitated and said generously, "There is another "Seven Books of the Martial Classics", and bring it," he instructed to follow the old courtyard outside, and then said to Li Kou Zhengse, "However, this book is a family heirloom, and it is the handwriting of the ancestors, so I have to borrow Da Lang to read it first, and it is easy not to show it." ”

He picked up the pen and ink and put it aside and said with a smile: "Da Lang is diligent and his brother is too late, copy it, with Da Lang's wisdom and wisdom, these two military books are only enlightenment." ”

Li Kou got up and saluted solemnly, this is really a great favor owed to Murong Yandatian.

Murong Yanda waved his hand and smiled: "You must be able to use it in Beiyuan Village, you don't have to be polite." He hesitated for a moment and immediately asked, "Brother Wei also has a time to ask Da Lang, in your opinion, what is the situation on Jingyuan Road?" ”

Li Kou saw that he was stunned, and said with a smile: "Brother Murong didn't give me any benefits, why be ashamed if you ask about the rules and regulations," he hesitated for a moment before he said again, "Aside from the friendship, we are still the same Jingyuan Road military and civilian, Brother Murong has something that I don't understand for the time being, if I know, I will say it in detail, I don't know where Brother Murong has hidden it from me?" ”

He pondered for a moment before saying: "As for the situation in Jingyuan Road, I'm afraid it's hard to say, if the public doesn't go to office, Shaanxi Zhulu appeases the important ministers to sit firmly, and the officials have the intention to adjust it, but I'm afraid it will take a while, however, the party and the Khitan converge, Tong Shuai will not dare to make the northern Shuai Si have a change, he has just won the battle and became the Privy Council to sign the matter, this one." ”

Murong Yanda leaned on the chair with a relaxed expression—the chair was not a Taishi chair, but a chair that could be folded up and put aside—he twisted his beard and struggled for a long time before he sighed: "There is chaos in the west, how can you have Kangning?!" ”

"Brother Murong, don't worry, I've been figuring out it recently, whether it's right or not, Brother Murong, ask for advice." Li Kou said, "In addition, Cai Xianggong has regained his appearance, and there is a lot of discussion in the government and the opposition, after all, Zhang Xianggong's death is ...... In this way, if the Khitan party merges and enters the Shaanxi Zhulu, the Central Plains will not be protected. If the west is saved and Hebei is in danger, this, Cai Xianggong does not dare to take the responsibility, he wants to be stable at the moment, not to fight the party as soon as possible, if he does not unify the law within the court, so that the law follows, he is afraid that he will revert to the prime minister and then resign. If Tong Shuai returns, so that there is a unified opinion inside and outside the palace, how likely is it that the official family will attack Jingyuan Road? In my opinion, if the public is healthy and safe, Jingyuan Road is still Jingyuan Road, but it is just ......"

"Yes, I'm only worried that the newcomer will have a plan." Murong Yanda said, "Jingyuan should be quiet and not in turmoil, if the civil officials come to get power again, it will be very troublesome." ”

Li Kou smiled in his heart, this guy is here to explore the attitude of discounting.

What?

Li Kou said: "Brother Murong is a little anxious. ”

Murong Yanda was a little confused.

He has now exhausted all means to seek the position of Weizhou Tongzhi.

Li Kou said: "It seems that Brother Murong has been busy with business during this period of time, and his mentality is the same as my previous days. He asked in a low voice, "Brother Murong asked himself how many people are forcing Weizhou to know now?" What is more advantageous than Brother Murong? What is more disadvantageous than Brother Murong? ”

Murong Yanda said happily: "I know that Da Lang must have a high theory!" ”

"In my opinion, Brother Murong has one disadvantage and three advantages, and the disadvantage is that he is too far away from the imperial court." Li Kou raised one hand and one finger, and then raised the other hand and pointed the finger and said, "Yuan, you can't use your own resources to let the Son of Heaven know, so that the court knows your merits when you killed the thief and the people." However, there are three advantages, Brother Murong is close to His Majesty, and he is only one of the people competing for the position of Tongzhi, who in the crowd will look at you more? On the contrary, in Weizhou, Brother Murong acts, if there is a way, 1510 can be presented to His Majesty, the Son of Heaven can see it, the princes can see it, and competitors can also see it. Second, when others come, they descend from the sky, and their foothold is unstable, how can they carry out the intentions of the imperial court to instruct the Son of Heaven? Brother Murong has been in Weizhou for a long time, with the support of Pan Yuan's military and civilians, he is already a prince of Weizhou, how can others be as good as you? This two also. ”

Murong Yanda clapped his hands and said in astonishment: "However, I am afraid that there are also candidates!" ”

"Wrong." Li Kou said, "I won't do this way of death, what's the matter?!" Brother Murong's benefit is also in the fold, and he does not say a word, does not recommend or refute, which is the greatest support for Brother Murong. At the beginning of the general judgment, there was no sense of power, and there was also a sense of decentralization, and the public urgently needed to check and balance this person, neither the military generals could be recommended, nor the western army generals, so there was no one to recommend, such a situation, the court can not ask? If you ask, the prince must ask the ministers to be transferred, and the princes in the court are arguing, but they don't dare to rashly decide on the candidates, so, Brother Murong does things in a regular manner, but there is a rumor that has reached the eyes of the official family, with Brother Murong's family background, Anken and the Western Army are integrated? This is the person that the Son of Heaven wants, this same knowledge, is Brother Murong's. ”

Murong Yanda was still not very relieved.

He asked, "What should we do now?" ”

"Do your duty and be anxious," Li Kou said, "If it were me, I would only report in detail the fact that Pan Yuan was taken advantage of by thieves, and not mention my own merits, only say that the army and the people worked hard, which is enough." ”

Huh?

Murong Yanda paced back and forth in the room, smashing the back of his hand into his palm for a long time.

He surrendered his hand and asked: "Can Da Lang help his brother......

"Yes." Li Kou said, "It's better to be like this, Brother Murong wrote an official letter, asking Zhizhou Yamen to guide Pan Yuan to strengthen the military industry, and I will ask someone to go back and ask for peace for Tong Shuai and Gong Zhe, how about it?" ”

Oh?

Murong Yanda thought about it carefully, and his eyes lit up.
