Chapter 272: Fighting for the Revival of the Yan Kingdom
Chapter 272 Fighting for the Revival of Yan Kingdom (Seeking Completeness)
The old man symbolizes the setting sun, and the child symbolizes the rising sun.
One represents death and one represents rebirth.
What kind of atmosphere is it like in a city full of old people and children?
It is a calm that appears gentle.
Children playing in the countryside, old people chatting in the streets, there is no so-called prosperity, there is no twilight and twilight, the combination of the two is a kind of warm calm.
In such an atmosphere, Wang Xu felt a sense of reality that belonged to life.
The old people of Yan who have been diligent all their lives have experienced the chaos of war, experienced the separation of flesh and blood, and also experienced cruel suffering, although the body is old, but the spirit has been tempered with tenacity, they do not have too much fear, nor too much hope, as if they have found the trajectory of life, calmly and calmly take care of the children who are related to themselves or not blood.
And these children who grew up in such an environment accepted the values of the old people, and did not have much longing for everything outside Xiangping City, neither longing for fame and fortune, nor expecting fame to be immortal, and the only luxury may be to see how their parents are doing.
The children of Xiangping City live a very regular life, farming, harvesting, and training from time to time under Zhang Tang's teaching.
It's a secluded city with a community of people living like a paradise.
As soon as he thought that he would personally send these people into the swamp whirlpool of the Central Plains, Wang Xu felt unbearable.
But fortunately, Wang Xu knew that although the world was in chaos fifteen years later, Fusu Gongzi, who was responsible for receiving this team, finally gave up the right to fight for hegemony for inexplicable reasons and chose to commit suicide.
Therefore, Wang Xu still divided the people of Xiangping City into the 'reserve army' of the Guzhu Kingdom, so he couldn't let Zhang Tang, an old ghost who lived for revenge, spoil these future flowers of Guzhu.
Although Zhang Tang seemed to take over Xiangping City in order to repay the grace of King Yan and the grace of knowing the encounter, in fact, Wang Xu could still feel his hatred for Daqin.
Yan Wangxi wanted to exchange the twenty-year-old tanuki for the prince's strategy, stealing the day and laughing to the end, and Zhang Tang was like Wu Zixu back then, and hatred supported him to live.
Such a person is very scary, especially such a person, who is still a military general.
After Wang left, Wang Xu was a little depressed, so he simply stayed in Xiangping City for two more days, on the one hand, he sent people to the north and south to explore the sphere of influence of Fuyu and Wofu, and on the other hand, he wanted to find out the state of Xiangping City and Zhang Tang's 'education model'.
Once again, I deeply felt Zhang Tang's old scheming.
The soldier of the hundred schools of the princes is easily understood as a simple military strategist.
But in fact, the most powerful thing about soldiers is not the military, but playing with people's hearts.
The Zongheng family relies on the interests of the vertical and horizontal, and the fox and the fake tiger power trick to bewitch the king.
The Yin-Yang family used pretenses and early science to fool the king.
Taoism and Confucianism confuse the king with the best reason in the world.
The Legalists were eager for quick success and quick profit to curry favor with the king immediately.
Soldiers, on the other hand, usually ignore the king, they pay more attention to the soldiers.
The representatives of the military family, Lu Shang, Sun Wu, Sun Bin, and Wei Yi, are all bigwigs who throw face at the king in the records.
Lu Shang fished King Wu in the East China Sea, saw Sun Wu for seven days, King Qi Wei saved Sun Bin for thousands of miles, and Wei Yi even saw the king and did not worship.
As for Wu Qi, Bai Qi, Li Mu, Lian Po, Ju Xin, Le Yi, Kuang Zhang, these famous generals basically forgot that there was a king when they went out to fight, and finally led to a miserable end for the master.
The main reason for this is that the military family is different from the other hundred schools of thought, because they are the real power faction that holds military power, so they know better that they rely on real military exploits rather than military theory.
In the eyes of soldiers, practice is the only way to prove your own value, and how to realize your own sergeant theory is to start with grassroots soldiers.
Soldiers are not slaves, let alone robots, especially the army before the Western Han Dynasty, more than 80% of them could not do the basic military orders of 'order and prohibition', and the soldiers of the Spring and Autumn Period were basically ordinary people, and this people were not ordinary people, but the children of the big clans, that is, the 'good family' can serve in the military.
On the one hand, military service can accumulate meritorious service, and on the other hand, the military service equipment and weapons in the Spring and Autumn Period were the responsibility of the soldiers, and ordinary people could not afford the cost of equipment at all.
But the bald phoenix is not a pheasant, even if it is an inconspicuous clan child, they are all arrogant, so how to manage the army is the main research topic of early soldiers.
Sun Wu said that the military strategy, followed by the invasion, and the second invasion of the army, is not only a means of attacking the enemy, but also a set of military management system, using power to control the soldiers is the best policy, using the exchange of interests as the middle policy, and using the cruel officials to coerce the soldiers is the next policy.
Therefore, a qualified soldier must be a master of playing with people's hearts, and he is also a master who is well versed in the people at the bottom and the head of the Qian.
There is a hard requirement for fighting in the Spring and Autumn Period, that is, the main general must be the core nobles of the country's prince-level, so Sun Wu, Pang Juan and Sun Bin These famous generals are difficult to take command alone in the Spring and Autumn Period, this kind of regulation is to supervise the generals on the one hand, and on the other hand, to inspire the people and soldiers, telling them that they are fighting for the honor and interests of the country.
This situation changed in the Warring States Period, because the wars in the Spring and Autumn Period became more and more frequent, the scale became larger and larger, and the children of the common people died almost as a last resort, so they had to recruit soldiers from the 'untouchables'.
That is to win people's hearts and let soldiers fight for the general, which is the so-called grace of acquaintance.
The most significant example is Wu Qi's sucking, Wu Qi governs the army strictly, but he leads by example, with the soldiers' clothing, food, shelter and transportation, and will also help the wounded soldiers suck and treat their wounds, not only can they get the respect and love of the soldiers, but also let the soldiers get a sense of spiritual satisfaction, and at the same time create an illusion of 'class ambiguity' for the soldiers, and will think that the generals are also like them from the small soldiers slowly climb up, thinking that they also have a chance.
Therefore, whether it is out of gratitude or self-interest, he will fight hard to kill the enemy on the battlefield.
It was in this method that Wu Qi used this method to create the flourishing Wei Wushu, because he controlled all the spiritual and material needs of the low-level soldiers.
Therefore, in this regard, the military family is definitely the most professional art specialty.
Zhang Tang is also from a military family, and he is also a soldier of Jixia Academy, although Wang Xu did not ask who he was taught by, but it is estimated that it is by no means ordinary and idle, and the surname Zhang is also very good to deduce Zhang Tang's family background.
The surname of Qin Zhang is out of Qingyang, the ancestor is Sun Hui, who made bows and arrows for the Yellow Emperor, and the Spring and Autumn Period is divided into two branches, one is the Zhang Zhong lineage of King Xuan of Zhou who was sealed in Korea and became a big clan in Korea, which is the ancestor of Zhang Liang later.
And the other line is the Jin State doctor Xie Zhang Yimai, which is the ancestor of Zhang Yi.
Zhang Tang should be in the same vein as Zhang Yi, who entered Qin when Qin was divided, or he is a descendant of Zhang Yi, after all, with Zhang Tang's achievements, his genetic family background must not be underestimated.
Wang Xu walked around Xiangping City for two days, chatting with the old man for one day and chatting with the child, and explored Zhang Tang's means.
Zhang Tang instilled an idea in both sides, that is, the peace in Xiangping City for so many years was the life of worry-free food and clothing created by the people of Yan Kingdom for their lonely old people, which infinitely magnified the glorious image of Yan State in the hearts of these lonely old people, and did not mention that the people in Xiangping City were actually screened out of the 'seeds of restoration'.
But Zhang Tang added fuel to the fire, allowing the old people to tell the children the history of Yan from an early age, telling about Yan from a vassal state of the Zhou Dynasty, bullied by the Shanrong barbarians, and finally developing into one of the seven heroes of the Warring States, telling how the history of Yan was bumpy, how it was bullied by Jin Qi in the early days, and how Su Qin turned the tide.
tells how Yan Kingdom went from being a bullied country to a big country that became the 'King of the Five Kingdoms'.
It tells how King Zhao is virtuous, how brave Qin Kai is, and how wise Le Yi is.
In the end, he distorted the image of Yan in the later battle of Yan and Zhao, and worsened the ugliness of Zhao and Qin.
Therefore, under this kind of historical education, an isolated and difficult Yan State was created to fight for the last happy land for Xiangping City on the front line.
Therefore, from the old man to the children, they all praise and gratitude to Yan Wang and Yan Guo, and in this kind of emotional and comfortable life for more than ten years, they naturally have an inseparable national feeling for Yan Guo.
The teenagers were filled with righteous indignation when they mentioned Jin Zhao Qi Qin, with deep anger on their little faces, and when they mentioned Qin Kai, Guo Kui, Le Yi and others, their faces were full of longing and gratitude.
Zhang Tang is ready to spend more than ten years planting the seeds of 'extreme patriotism' in the hearts of these children, so when they hear the news of the demise of the Yan Kingdom and the sacrifice of the 'Parent King' to protect them, they don't need anyone's supervision.
These children will 'fight bravely for the revival of the Yan Kingdom'.
If there was no history of Zhang Tang's distortion of the resentment of Yan Zhao and Qin in the later period, Wang Xu still felt that this was an epic script that could be sung and cried.
But now, in addition to thinking about it and being terrified, Wang Xu has mercy on these children.
Since these children have been regarded as a lone bamboo reserve army, it is what Wang Xu must do to change the development trajectory of this seed, and he cannot let these already poor children embark on a road of no return.
But you can't startle the snake, after all, I don't know if Zhang Tang, the old guy, has any back-ups, and if you want to change the three views that these children have formed, it is not something that can be completed overnight.
Therefore, Wang Xu can use the method of soft penetration.
And this task, non-Mo Wu can not be competent, Mo Wu's round and white appearance coupled with deep city government scheming, and the experience of doing human resources in the country of Guzhu, so that he has an absolute advantage in dealing with interpersonal relationships.
Zhang Tang is certainly cunning and cunning, but when it comes to 'soothing the people', Wang Xu feels that his means and theories of soothing the people should be more abundant.
"Tomorrow we are going to leave for the country of Guzhu, but we have also found a large number of traces of the Buyeo tribe on both sides of the northeast, for safety, I am ready to leave some soldiers to help you defend, after all, the available troops in your city are worried." Wang Xu sat on the chair, pointed to Mo Wu next to him, who was dressed in regular clothes and looked like a rich man, and said with a smile: "This Mo Wu is a general of a hundred battles in my country, and he is especially good at defending the city. ”
"The juniors have seen Zhang Junshou." Mo Wu's face was full of flattery, and he bowed and saluted.
