"How's your homework lately?" Wang Lang asked.

"I have mastered addition, subtraction, multiplication and division in several books, and I will discuss some knowledge with my classmates on weekdays." Wang He said a little nervously.

Wang Lang nodded and said, "It's very good, but you must not be complacent, you must know that there is no end to learning, and the knowledge you have learned must be used flexibly, I will test you now." ”

When Wang He heard this, he said confidently: "Please ask my father to take the school!" ”

"Listen, for example, if I go to plant cucumbers, if two cucumbers are planted on a cucumber seedling, and five elements are planted, nine in a row, after the cucumbers are ripe, I will give one to one of the six Shangshu, and I will set the remaining cucumbers in half, and I will give half to other Chinese people, how many half-cut cucumbers will I get in the end?" Wang Lang said slowly.

Wang He frowned, he had never been exposed to this way of asking questions, he was in a fog when he went around, but when he saw Wang Lang staring at him, he was extremely anxious, and sweat gradually oozed from his forehead.

This question is equivalent to the difficulty of the first and second grades of primary school, and if Wang He can calculate it, it basically proves that he has completely mastered the four operations and can learn deeper knowledge.

Time passed little by little, and Wang Lang didn't urge him, just quietly waited for his answer.

Five minutes later, Wang He spoke: "Father, I have calculated it. ”

"Oh! What is the result! Wang Lang smiled.

"Forty-two left!" Wang He replied in the affirmative.

"How did you figure it out, tell me what you think."

"Plant five elements of cucumbers, nine in a row, according to the multiplication formula, five nine forty-five, two on a cucumber seedling, that is, forty-five times two, that is, ninety, divided into six Shangshu one person, ninety minus six is eighty-four, eighty-four divided by two is forty-two." Wang He said eloquently.

Wang Lang nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, it seems that you have indeed made a lot of progress during this time, and I am very pleased to be my father." ”

Wang He couldn't help but say with some excitement: "This is all the work of my father's teaching. ”

"Your Majesty, He'er is really smart, this can be calculated, I don't even understand it!" Fanxing looked at Wang He and said proudly.

"Don't praise him, or this boy's tail won't reach to the sky." Wang Lang stroked his beard lightly, chuckled, and said to the third girl: "You go down first, I will talk to the river alone about something." ”

"Yes!"

The third girl gave a salute and retreated with Wang Lan with a puzzled face.

Only father and son were left here, and Wang He said nervously: "I don't know what the father has to explain to the child." ”

"What do you want to do in the future?" Wang Lang asked.

Wang He thought for a while and said, "The child wants to be a general and expand the territory for his father." ”

Wang Lang smiled: "Very ambitious, what kind of conditions do you think you need to be a general?" ”

"Be brave, fight hard!" Wang He said excitedly.

Wang Lang shook his head and said: "If you want to be a general, these are not enough, in your eyes, Lin Jianya and Lin Shupi, do the two general soldiers only have these two points?" ”

"The two commanders, they are people I admire, they are very brave and they are also good at fighting, so they can become generals, father, isn't that so?" Wang He asked suspiciously.

"Of course they have these two points, but war is not a matter of one or two people, every soldier is very important, there are many people in the Xia country who are much stronger than the two of them, and they are almost as brave as the two of them, they can all be generals?" Wang Lang asked rhetorically.

"This... I don't think so! Wang Heyou replied hesitantly.

"Why not?"

"This... The child doesn't know. Wang He began to waver a little from his goal.

"The most important thing for a general is to be able to win battles, be able to accurately judge the best time to attack, and be able to convince his subordinates in his ability to lead troops, because a good general can make his subordinates survive on the battlefield to the greatest extent and bring honor to the soldiers.

Personal bravery is the most important, to be able to kill and injure the enemy from a distance, it is best not to fight hand-to-hand with the enemy, this world is very big, I don't know how many powerful enemies there are outside, the future war is unavoidable, in the future, martial arts can only be able to strengthen the body, don't give up the original purpose to pursue those less important things, you have to be a general, not a warrior, understand? Wang Lang said patiently.

"Got it!" Wang He said solemnly.

"Learning all kinds of knowledge at the same time is also a necessary skill for a general, and there are many things to consider when marching and fighting, such as the speed of marching, the weather conditions on the roads, and how much grain and grass are needed."

"Father, my Xia Kingdom is surrounded by those savages, there is no need to learn so much to deal with them, you only need to eliminate dozens of soldiers to beat them all down." Wang He waved his small fist and said confidently.

Wang Lang smiled, "Those wild people naturally don't need these, this world is very big, how much space our Xia Kingdom occupies, who knows if there are other countries outside, when the time comes, when you meet an opponent of the same strength, mastering these is just the foundation." ”

"Will there really be other countries out there? The teacher said that our Xia Kingdom is the only country in this world. Wang He scratched his head and asked suspiciously.

"Who can say this clearly, you have to remember one sentence, even if there is no enemy at present, we must improve the strength of the army as much as possible, if a country forgets the war, it will not last long." Wang Lang said solemnly.

Wang He nodded as if he didn't understand, and said, "Father, I remember." ”

"Good performance today, allow you to go out for a day, go ahead!" Wang Lang smiled.

"Thank you, father!" Wang He cheered and ran towards the door, only at this time, could he see the innocence and playful nature of a five-year-old child.

Wang Lang got up and walked to the arrow target, picked up a longbow, walked into the distance, and after aiming, "Whoosh!" An arrow roared out.

The powerful force instantly caused the arrow to penetrate the grass target.

Looking at the arrow target that was shot through, Wang Lang said coldly: "Those who dare to offend my Great Xia will be punished even if they are far away!" ”

At this time, the guard suddenly came to report, "Your Majesty, the squire of the Ministry of Works has something to ask to see Your Majesty!" ”

Wang Lang nodded, put down the bow and arrow, and said in a deep voice: "I know!" ”

When I came to the front hall, I saw Li Tong, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, sitting on a chair waiting for him.

Seeing Wang Lang coming, he immediately got up and bowed: "Minister, Li Tong greets Your Majesty!" ”

After Wang Lang waved his hand to sit down, he asked in a deep voice, "Li Aiqing is here for something important?" ”
