Chapter 497: Four Words Coming to My Heart
Under the shade of the trees on the slope of Luofeng.
"The soldiers who were transferred were all thin and strong in martial arts, a total of thirty people, and a small half of them were a certain personal guard, who had been with a certain person for a long time, so they still knew their skills," Pei Zilie commanded in a low voice, "You can only carry short blades, so you must pay attention to grasp the wind direction and position, and after landing, you must fight quickly, hurry up and open the city gate, and receive the army into the city." ”
Zheng Kaiyuan bowed slightly, and one by one paper kites made of nearby chopped bamboo lay quietly in the open space. The paper kite is actually the kite of later generations, this kind of thing that can fly into the air appeared as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and it is rumored that it was invented by Mozi, who was proficient in mechanical skills. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, paper kites were also often used to deliver messages.
Now these paper kites are obviously much larger than ordinary paper kites, and there are protruding handles under the paper kites, and Zheng Kaiyuan and others can use this paper kite to slide from the top of Luofengpo Mountain to Mianzhuguan.
"Someone has already tried it just now, and it can be completely slid down the mountainside to the flat ground." Xu Deyan wiped his sweat with his sleeve on the side, he was busy for a long time, even in winter, he was already busy sweating, "But the slope here is not as strong as from Luofeng Slope to Mianzhu Pass, the wind at that distance will inevitably be stronger, so you must ······control it at that time."
Zheng Kaiyuan's expression was also a little solemn, obviously the situation was not better than he expected.
"Go ahead and get ready." Pei Zilie said in a low voice, reaching out and patting Zheng Kaiyuan's shoulder.
Zheng Kaiyuan hurriedly promised: "Please rest assured that the general and the chief bookkeeper are at ease!" ”
Seeing Zheng Kaiyuan turn around and leave. Pei Zilie then looked at Xu Deyan: "Xiuyuan, do you think it's still a little inappropriate to do this?" ”
Xu Deyan was silent for a moment, and nodded slowly: "To say something from the heart, there should be some." After all, his subordinates were from civilian families, and he never thought that one day he would be able to cross the battlefield······ Therefore, although his subordinates have read several military books since childhood, they did not expect that one day they can apply the knowledge in such military books to actual combat. ”
After a pause, Xu Deyan looked around at the vast mountains around him: "Since entering Shu to follow General Dangkou and General Wu Yi, my subordinates feel that these things are also useful, and they don't need to rot in their stomachs." But then I was a little surprised to find that it still didn't seem to be used much······ General, your actions can still be explained by military books, but General Dangkou's actions are always unpredictable. ”
Pei Zilie couldn't help but chuckle, and Xu Deyan showed an embarrassed look on his face, and subconsciously reached out and scratched his head: "I have my own opinion, and I ask the general not to take it seriously." ”
"Haha!" Pei Zilie couldn't help laughing, "You're not slandering Shizhong from behind, what can't you take seriously?" What's more, to be honest, I don't think there's anything wrong with what you said. ”
Xu Deyan was stunned and a little surprised. And Pei Zilie said with a smile: "When I first met and contacted Shizhong, I had the same thoughts as you. Shizhong has really not read many books, this is a fact, even if it is in front of him, he will definitely say so, but God really treats him well, although he has not read books, but he has a pair of eyes that can see through the world. For the general trend of the world and the hearts of the people, he has a clearer grasp than us. ”
"This ······" Xu Deyan didn't know whether to stay silent with Pei Zilie.
He was born in a family, and he has paid attention to the concept of respect and inferiority since he was a child, so that he talked about Li Xinchen behind his back, so that he didn't know whether he should say more or not.
And Pei Zilie seemed to notice Xu Deyan's embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Shizhong's personality is still clear, if he doesn't even mind the little comments behind these, then it's not Li Shizhong." What's more, he didn't mean to mock him,"
Immediately afterwards, Pei Zilie sighed: "Although he hasn't seen these, he always feels that he has seen more and seen more. For this warm and cold person and the hot and cold world, he is more accurate than us. ”
After a pause, Pei Zilie spread his hands helplessly: "Maybe it's because we are too limited to books, sometimes we feel that Shizhong's feasible methods are not in line with common sense, and sometimes we feel that his ideas are unrealistic······ But he always tells us with his own actions that there are many unrealistic things in the world, and not all of them are unachievable. ”
Xu Deyan rubbed his chin gently, Pei Zilie said a lot of things that he hadn't thought of before, and now he had a feeling of being sudden.
Perhaps it is precisely because of Li Xinchen's thinking that he is not bound by books on the art of war that he can do everything by surprise. And God seems to be favoring him, giving Li Xinchen a chance to prove himself right every time.
In an instant, the words "Child of Destiny" surged into Xu Deyan's mind, making him subconsciously shudder.
The only person who can get such an evaluation in history is Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, who is a person who seems to be favored by the heavens all the time, which is the consensus reached by everyone who reads the history books. And now Xu Deyan feels that he is working under the same "Son of Destiny".
Li Xinchen's step-by-step rise seems to be a coincidence, but are there really so many coincidences in the world? And who can guarantee that this coincidence is not an opportunity provided for him by the heavens? Li Xinchen can now open up a world in this Bashu, who knows that in five or ten years, he will not be like Han Guangwu to take this world into his hands?
Thinking of this, Xu Deyan couldn't help clenching his fists, and he didn't know that his back was soaked with sweat.
Looking up at the sky slightly, Xu Deyan didn't know what to say.
Perhaps there is a providence in the dark that controls all this, and his grandfather, who has been up and down in the sea for most of his life, seems to have felt and sensed something, otherwise it would be impossible to send himself to this Bashu so early.
Is this day about to change?
And how to change is in the hands of those of us?
noticed the change in Xu Deyan's expression, but Pei Zilie did not move. What he wants to say today is actually what he said in his heart, but these words were naturally inappropriate to say before, and now he is in Bashu, thousands of miles away from the court, and the battle situation in Bashu is so chaotic, some things are also when it is time to say them.
Just by virtue of the concept of being a "great Chen courtier", it seems that there is no way to support this group that is thousands of miles away and cannot even get the help and supply of the imperial court to continue to walk. Xu Deyan's hesitation and hesitation, suspicion and helplessness, Pei Zilie himself could detect it, and he didn't believe that Li Xinchen didn't notice it.
It's just that there are some things that Li Xinchen himself can't say, and it is impossible for him to wake up these subordinates. So Pei Zilie is happy to help with this.
Whether it's from the point of view of the group's unity, or in preparation for something to come, the time has come for these words to be spoken.
