Wang Jian was speechless after listening to the chaotic answers of the soldiers, and couldn't help but think of the black instructor in "Forrest Gump" who asked Forrest Gump why he came to the barracks, and Forrest Gump's classic answer: "Do what you asked me to do." "The duty of the army is to obey orders, why haven't I met such sensible soldiers?

Wang Jian raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, word by word, and said rudely: "Do what I asked you to do!" Wherever I point, you will hit me! That's what you're here for! ”

"Yes, do what the emperor asked me to do!"

"Hooray!"

"Hooray!"

The roars that resounded in the sky one after another alarmed the three women in the camp, and they all left the camp to find out where the roar was loudest.

"Sister Yuanyuan, what do you say the emperor is doing?" Chen Yao'er asked, this little girl is not light in treating wounded soldiers, but fortunately, Chen Yuanyuan has given her a lot of true qi and is lively again.

In Chen Yuanyuan's opinion, the only people who can become her friends are the innocent and romantic Yao'er, and the people she cares about in the world are only two people--- Chen Yao'er, her little follower, and her father-in-law Wang Chengen. Even Wang Jian's life or death, she didn't seem to care.

"Who knows, I don't know what nerves to make." Chen Yuanyuan shook her head gently, she knew that Wang Jian took the opportunity to subdue the army's heart, but she still couldn't help but sneer. Chen Yao'er on the side listened to her damage Wang Jian, pursed her lips and smiled.

But the hot-tempered Ma Concubines stopped doing it: "Hmph, it's better than someone, we are working hard in front, but she is very idle." ”

Chen Yuanyuan glanced at Ma Yuanyuan with disdain, but did not answer.

Chen Yao'er was afraid that there would be friction between the two, so she hurriedly took Chen Yuanyuan's little hand and said, "Then let's go and take a look." "Wow, that's so lively. ”

At this moment, Wang Jian and a group of soldiers sat around and drank happily, and the leg of lamb was roasting on the roaring bonfire, and the mutton fat was squeaking. These big-headed soldiers have never seen such a stunning look, and there are still three, among which Chen Yuanyuan is the most amazing, it seems that she can always unintentionally give full play to her charm to the extreme. Ma Meimei gives people a neutral beauty, and her eyebrows naturally reveal a heroic spirit, and she has become more and more mature and cold after several wars. And Chen Yao'er, who looks like a small jasper, is the most likable, always with a clever and smiling demeanor, and several of the soldiers present have been healed by her skillful hands, and they also respect her the most.

The arrival of the three girls made them dare not stay longer, and hurriedly got up and retreated, but Wu Sangui seemed to have something on his mind when he left, and glanced at Chen Yuanyuan intentionally or unintentionally.

Wang Jian cut off a piece of lamb leg meat with a knife, handed it to Chen Yao'er and said, "I'm tired today, I'll make it up for you." ”

"Brother Emperor, what were you talking about just now? So hilarious. Chen Yao'er took the leg of mutton, leaned comfortably in Wang Jian's arms and asked, Yao'er is a little lazy by nature, she will never sit if she can lie down, and she loves to sleep lazy, and she loves to lie in Wang Jian's arms even more.

"It's nothing, let's talk about the soldiers." Wang Jian saw Ma Miao's eyes looking at the bonfire thoughtfully, so he asked, "Miao, how do you say to lead the army?" “

Ma Mi has no experience in leading soldiers, and only knows that in order to protect Wang Jian, she must hold the handsome seal. "Brother Jane, the time for a concubine to lead the army is still short, how can you understand so many truths. It's nothing more than a right match, a strange victory, right? She didn't know how to answer, but she just took out the wisdom in Sun Tzu's Art of War and replied.

After hearing this, Wang Jian didn't think so, and scolded: "The bullshit is a good match, and it is a strange victory." ”

Ma was stunned for a moment, if it was someone else, she would definitely not accept it, but for Wang Jian, she was blindly worshipped, as long as Wang Jian said it was right: "Brother Jian, is the soldier saint wrong?" ”

Wang Jian said: "I believe that the original words of the soldier saint must be "to win with odds", but later generations misunderstood him and became "with righteousness, with odds." ”

Ma Mi wondered, "Is there any difference between this?" After a few big battles, she gradually revealed the potential to become a real celebrity.

Wang Jian said: "Because of the psychology of curiosity, the world prefers the generals who "win by surprise", but they don't understand that what determines a battle and even the fate of a country can only be "to coincide", so occasionally surprise soldiers may come to surprise," After saying that, Wang Jian was not at ease, he knew that although the benefits of using Qi were large, the risk was greater, so he reminded: "But you must remember, you must not be obsessed with the strange way, and you must not be tired of it!" ”

In order to confirm his statement, Wang Jian said again: "Sister-in-law, think about it, why are so many Qi generals the most in the pre-Qin period?" That's because they are all romances, legends, and most of them are exaggerated. The most valuable quality of a famous player is not how many whimsical tricks there are, but one step at a time, perseverance, and finally victory. ”

Ma Miao's eyes lit up, and she said: "The concubine understands, take the change of the civil fort as an example, Yingzong and his old man were defeated because they were not stable and steady, and they were defeated by the Tartar ambush, yes or no?" ”

Listening to Ma Yuan's mention of Ming Yingzong, Wang Jian felt that this person was both hateful and cute, hateful was to pit the main army in the heyday of the Ming Dynasty, and the lovely thing was that he later lived as a human spirit: not only could he be released back from the left and right of the enemy camp, but he also survived in captivity for seven years without being killed, and then he could be restored.

"People can always learn to grow up after experiencing great changes," Wang Jian sighed as if he said himself, "The reason why the battle of Tumubao failed was, in the final analysis, that it was a common disease of human nature--- too much love." ”

"Desser?" They were puzzled.

"Well, I love to show off too much, I wanted to lead 200,000 people out on an outing, and I was majestic, even if I didn't win, I could get out of the way, but I had to show off everywhere, which led to a big defeat," he added: "He made the common mistake of loving women who are blind and smelly." ”

Although the three daughters only have Ma Concubine who loves military affairs, they all love to listen to stories and listen to Wang Jian's explanation of the past of the Yingzong Dynasty, and they also listen to it with relish. Only Chen Yuanyuan heard him say that women's common diseases, thinking that Wang Jian was targeting her, so he gave Wang Jian a blank look, because among the women, Yao'er was innocent and romantic, Qi'er was loyal to her duties, and Concubine was dedicated to leading the troops, only she had fun everywhere every day.

Wang Jian was wronged, and unconsciously offended Chen Yuanyuan again, and he didn't know it. According to Chen Yuanyuan's cautious temper, it is estimated that he will have to wear small shoes in the future.

Wang Jian said: "The only factor that determines the outcome of a war is national strength after all. ”

Ma asked again: "Then why did the battle of Tumubao, where the rich soldiers of my Ming Kingdom outperformed the Tartars dozens of times, and finally failed?" Is it just because Yingzong is an old man, uh, Dese? ”

"Ai Xian and Ai used strange schemes to think in a flash, the failure of Tumu Fort Yingzong's Dese is on the one hand, on the other hand, the Tartar is lucky, and he met a pig-headed opponent once in a thousand years - Wang Zhen. You can't hope that your opponent is a once-in-a-millennium idiot, you know? And strong national strength is the foundation of victory, for example, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, they obviously have very good national strength, but they have repeatedly failed to conquer Goryeo, do you know the reason? ”

Ma Xiaomei thought for a while and couldn't answer.

Wang Jian said: "That's because they don't know how to use national strength, they all want to go all out, and every time they do their best to conquer Goryeo, this is like two gamblers, one has a lot of money, the other Langzhong is shy, the two of them have different gambling boards, the former can lose once, twice, 100 times, 1,000 times." And the latter loses even once and loses the whole game. To put it bluntly, when you have enough gambling money, there is no such thing as not investing all your value at once. ”

Ma Miao's eyes lit up, and she said: "The concubine understands, if Emperor Yang of Sui knows how to cultivate and recuperate, he can continue to fight, for a year, two years, ten years, a hundred years, until he completely defeats Goryeo, yes or no?" ”

"Well, this is the impact of national strength on the outcome of the war, of course, it is not that the trick and plot are not good, if you use them well, you may be able to reduce our losses, but the icing on the cake, a real famous general, you must know how to balance between the right and the strange, and steadiness is always the first choice, because everyone will make mistakes on the battlefield, and victory only belongs to the side that makes fewer mistakes."

Seeing Ma Xiaomei nodding clearly, Wang Jian was also very pleased. It's not that he has any prejudice against the conspiracy, but he understands a truth: success has been fortunate since ancient times, but he laughs at the world and says Liutao!

A well-known military critic in later generations, Zhang Juzuo, once said: Laymen talk about strategy and tactics, and insiders talk about logistics and supply. What is logistics? It is the comprehensive national strength, the national strength is here, and a stable pig can be sent to win, but the national strength is not enough, and the soldier saint is born in vain. Just like how later generations boasted, if it weren't for Song Gaozong's twelve gold medals, Yue Fei seemed to be able to really hit the Huanglong Mansion. Not to mention the huge disparity in strength between the Southern Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, even if Song Gaozong disregarded his net worth and life, originally intended to gamble and exhaust all his national strength, he might not be able to hit Huanglong Mansion. What's more, Song Gaozong is not a gambler, he just wants to live the rest of his life in peace.

In Wang Jian's view, relying on the power of one or two immortal generals to turn things around may only be a fantasy.
