Cheng Yao quickly got the results of Pei Gai's calculations, held them in his hand and looked at them several times, and he couldn't believe his eyes. In fact, he was also mentally prepared for Pei Cai to be able to complete the task he had assigned, but he didn't expect it to be so fast...... Originally, he was just a person who read the book of death, but since Shi Le, after entering the "gentleman's camp", he relied purely on self-study, and finally practiced all the things that ordinary scholars, especially high-quality scholars, such as relevant material management and military laws, were extremely proficient, and pretended to coordinate general affairs, and even Zhang Bin may not be his opponent. I really didn't expect that now there is a Pei Gai, who is even more capable than himself!

In fact, he has already finished accounting for these slips, but they have not been officially filed yet, and there are some loopholes in them, and he has not yet had time to instruct the "craftsman battalion" to rectify them, so he knew at first sight whether the results submitted by Pei Gai were correct. But because of this, it made him even more ashamed, and gave birth to a deep sense of powerlessness - the nobles of the high-ranking families and the children of the eunuchs, are they really so powerful? If I can do a better job, I will definitely be better than that villain, but it's a pity......

Angry in his heart, he wanted to tear the paper on the spot, but after thinking about it, he finally put it on the table, took the knife and ruler, and cut off the empty corners - this can still be used, not wasted. Immediately, Pei Gai's words were burned on the candle flame, but he was still thinking in his heart: "That villain's handwriting is also good, mellow and strong, and natural...... Truly abominable! ”

Then sit down, put your hand on your forehead, and meditate. If this plan fails, there should be two plans, but where do the two plans come from? What else can stump that flattering villain? There is no need to think about the writing work, since it is a famous family, the article must be well written, if it is delivered to the official document, maybe it will fall into the other party's arms...... Do you want him to participate in the formulation of military law and military orders? After all, it was a newcomer, and Shi Le was not necessarily happy to take on a heavy responsibility, and if he once again did a good job beyond his expectations, it backfired, and achieved the reputation of the villain......

was thinking about it, and it happened that Qu Bin came to play again. Cheng Yao asked casually: "That villain still can't live in the depths, and only has a private meeting with General Zhi every night?" "Qu Bin said I was about to talk about this-" I saw General Zhi lead the villain to the horse farm. ”

Cheng Yaoyi frowned: "But why?" ”

Regarding the matter of going to the racecourse, Pei Gai still made up his mind with Zhi Quliu last night.

He had long wanted to practice equestrianism, but he knew that things should not be rushed, and that urgency would make people suspicious, so he waited for so many days before finally getting the opportunity to test Qu Liu. At that time, Zhi Quliu happened to ask him how effective he had been exercising in the past few days, and Pei Gai smiled bitterly: "The stone lock sent by the general is too heavy, and I have no one to guide me, try to move it once, and almost hurt my waist tendon...... " casually complained a few words, and then said: "I want to be in the army, I must be familiar with riding horses, otherwise if the army is transferred, is it the same as a baggage, and I travel by car?" Riding a horse is also good for my muscles and bones, and the general may teach me? ”

When Zhi Quliu heard this, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he lowered his head and muttered, which clearly meant that he didn't want to agree, but it was inconvenient to refuse clearly. Pei Gai laughed "haha": "Does the general think that I want to take the opportunity to escape on horseback?" Qing is a general who gallops across the field, and there are many skilled soldiers with bows and horses under his command, are you still afraid that I, a literati who is just learning riding, will not be able to escape? And in the future, if the lord asks any questions in the army, shall I follow him on my shoulder? Thinking of that Wang Yan, he was accustomed to riding shoulder and ox carts, which caused the whole army to travel only twenty miles a day, so he led the army to catch up with the lord - if he could ride a horse, he was afraid that the lord would not be able to reach him. ”

casually told a few jokes, mocked Wang Yan's miscellaneous, eased the atmosphere, and then he brought it up, saying that I didn't go out of the city to practice, did it mean that there was no place to run horses in this city? Where can I run to only practice in the city?

Only then did Zhi Quliu move. He listened to Pei Gai talk about the ancient times these days, and he admired this gentleman very much, he originally thought that he was the same as Cheng Yao, but Pei Gai explained the ancient wars, which was clearly organized and well-commented-it was a summary of the comments of scholars and even military experts over thousands of years, how could it be inaccurate-It is clear that he is also very talented in military affairs, and he is almost not under Zhang Bin!

In his mind, Zhi Quliu has long regarded Pei Gai as Zhuge Liang's Yapi, but his judgment of Pei Gai has gradually improved with his understanding of Zhuge Liang. At first, Pei should only be a scholar with a certain amount of knowledge, which is the same as the evaluation of Zhuge Liang by Shi Lun; And through Pei Gai's narration, he knew that Zhuge Liang governed Shuzhong in an orderly manner, and with a state of land and tens of thousands of soldiers, he could resist the powerful Cao Wei alone - because the cooperation of Eastern Wu was always unreliable - he felt that Mr. Pei should also be a similar character; Further, knowing that Zhuge Liang led the Northern Expedition and faced the enemy Cao Zhen and Sima Yi, the 300,000 elites in Longshang "can only defend themselves, dare not come to the enemy, and dare not chase", this is not only Guan Zhong, but also Le Yi, and Mr. Pei, who can analyze the reasons and reasons clearly, will it be too much worse than Zhuge Liang in history?

No wonder Mr. Zhang asked me to take care of him when he was leaving, and he couldn't let him run - he was Wolong, Mr. Zhang was a phoenix, and the lord and the two virtuous men were both virtuous, and if he was the right hand, the world would not be enough! The key branch Qu Liu believes that Shi Le will not be as miserable as Liu Bei, and can only be in a corner in the end, one is that Shi Le raised troops earlier, and his power expanded rapidly, and if Liu Bei was not in the early years, there was almost no place to compare, and the second was ...... Only Liu Yuanhai can compare to Cao Cao, but he has already died, who can resist Liu Xianzhu?!

Therefore, he did not want to reject Pei Gai's request, but also thought that what Pei Gai said that Shi Le would consult him militarily in the future, which was very possible. Then I heard Pei Gai say that he just wanted to run a horse in the city, and he said that nothing would happen to him, so he agreed, but on the condition: "I must personally lead Mr. Pei there." ”

——————————

So the next day, after taking a break during the day, Zhi Quliu took Pei Gai to the horse farm in the west of the city—that was specially circled after the Hu army was stationed, and the houses were demolished and the ground cleared for the purpose of rehearsing and reviewing the cavalry. Zhi Quliu chose a relatively docile and of course weak foot horse, and instructed Pei step by step how to control it. Pei Gai only practiced for half an hour, and he felt that his back was sore, and even his thighs were almost cramping - he said to himself that this horse without stirrups is really difficult to ride, should I try to "invent" stirrups? It's not technical. After thinking about it again, let's talk about it later, the Hu people will use stirrups again, and they will be like tigers, and I can't do this kind of thing.

Zhiqu Liu's time during the day was limited, and it was impossible to accompany Pei Gai all the time, but he didn't want Pei Gai to leave his sight on horseback, so the two sides agreed to do a practice every three days - and I will pick you up in three days.

But three days later, he came again to ask Pei to run a horse, and before Pei should go out, he heard someone behind him calling: "Where is Wenyue?" Zhi Quliu turned around to take a look, and saw a woman fluttering out of the main room—she couldn't see her face clearly, because she was wearing a bamboo hat on her head and a light veil hanging from it, covering her face. Pei Gai hurriedly bowed to the ground: "Aunt Qiqi, my nephew is waiting to practice riding." ”

Zhi Quliu naturally understood the identity of this woman, and respected that she was once a princess and Pei Gai's elder, so he also arched his hand from afar. I heard the woman scold: "Riding a horse is dangerous, if Wen Yue accidentally stumbles and hurts his muscles and bones, how can it be good?" Don't go! ”

Zhiqu Liuxin said that what is so dangerous about riding a horse? You Chinese, you occupy a good place, so people have no fighting spirit, you just want to live a peaceful and stable life; We came up from the steppe desert, and horses are important partners in our pursuit of prey, grazing livestock, and obtaining food, if we really think like you Chinese, then we would have starved to death a long time ago. Since entering the Central Plains, you have been almost invincible, invincible, and the Jin army is invincible, which is the inevitable result of your weakness and cowardice!

I heard Pei Cai kneel on the ground and argue: "Now that my nephew has joined the army, how can he not ride a horse?" There is not much risk in riding a horse, the nephew is cautious, and there is a general to take care of him, it is expected to be safe, and the aunt does not have to worry...... "It's easy to say, but Pei always refuses to let go, until Zhi Quliu feels a little annoyed, Pei Shi proposed, you have to practice equestrianism, I have to follow to see if it is really risky."

Zhi Quliu is indispensable, he is only afraid that Pei Gai will escape, and he will not worry about a woman, and according to his estimates, the woman has been stuffy in the house for too long, so he took the opportunity to go out for a walk - what is risky to ride a horse, you have to watch from the side, who believes it? Even if Pei Gaizhen falls off the horse, I may not have time to save it, what can you do while watching from the side? So Pei Gai pleaded loudly, his attitude was quite sincere, and his mood seemed to be eager, and it was difficult for him to refute his face, so he agreed after thinking about it.

This day was really calm, Pei should have been able to barely let the horse gallop, Pei Shi watched from the side, and from time to time ordered the maid Yun'er to hand her nephew a handkerchief to wipe her sweat, or hand a bowl of water to quench her thirst, and did not make any excessive requests. Three days later, it was another three days, Pei should continue to practice the art of riding, Pei Shi has been asking to follow to see, look and see, Pei should say Auntie, you are just looking at the side and are not boring, it is better for you to come and learn.

Before Zhi Qu Liu spoke, Pei should have found a lot of reasons to advise Pei Shi, until Pei Shi moved, he did not ask Zhi Qu Liu's opinion, but he did not completely ignore Zhi Qu Liu, and only asked: "Like my aunt, which horse to start with is safer?" ”

Zhi Quliu was completely led by Pei Cai's nose, but he didn't realize it, and couldn't help but stretch out his hand and point to a small horse not far away. Pei Cai said okay, I will teach my aunt to ride a horse, not to support the general. Zhi Quliu nodded, what he thought in his heart was, you Chinese always say that men and women do not kiss, are you afraid that I will run into Concubine Pei and damage her reputation? That's thinking too much...... You can teach me, I am not in the mood to teach a woman to ride a horse—that is not my woman.

He didn't notice that Pei's eyes suddenly brightened under the light veil, and at the same time nodded slightly, deeply pleased with his nephew's intelligence.
