"Okay, you Xiao Li, do you want to put Lord Ben on the stove to roast? Wait for the two adults to leave and then settle accounts with you, and see if Lord Ben doesn't beat your ass! ”

Li Yan is already beautiful, and the men's clothes are even younger, Zhang You is angry that he betrayed himself, and he really wants to slap her upright buttocks, but he doesn't dare, so he can only bargain in words.

In front of the two court officials who were talked about by Zhang You, Li Yan's face turned red with shame, knowing that Zhang You deliberately retaliated, and his identity could not be exposed, so he could only grit his silver teeth secretly, begging for mercy verbally, and being ruthless in his heart.

Looking at Liang Menglong and Qi Jiguang looking at Li Yan with a look of exploration in their eyes, Zhang You regretted it a little, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Xiao Li is my father-in-law's most trusted master, didn't anyone hire a killer to assassinate me, my father-in-law was worried about my safety, so he sent him to me. ”

It turned out to be an internal official, no wonder he was so handsome.

Liang Qi and the two looked at each other and smiled, their thinking was really led astray by Zhang You, and their faces showed relief.

Qi Jiguang was most concerned about the doubling of the power of the Mandarin Duck Array, but Shi Cai was interrupted, and he hurriedly pulled it back: "Zicheng, let's talk about the Mandarin Duck Array, you and I are not outsiders, I can't hide it, this is the old man's proud work in his life, and he has not tasted defeat against the enemy with it......"

"Qi Shuai, you misunderstood, what I said about improving the power of the Mandarin Duck Array is not the formation itself, in fact, in my opinion, this array is almost invincible in the era of cold weapons......"

"The age of cold weapons?" Liang Menglong and Qi Jiguang grabbed this novel word that sounded a little unfamiliar, but could understand the meaning.

"This is to the point," Qi Jiguang continued: "The old man can understand the 'cold weapons' you are talking about, it should refer to traditional weapons such as swords, guns, swords, halberds, etc., on the contrary, I am afraid that there must be a 'hot weapon' to refer to those firearms, right?" He didn't wait for Zhang You to answer, and said to himself: "If the enemy is equipped with a large number of long-range attack weapons such as artillery trebuchets, the Mandarin Duck Array will indeed lose its effect, but if you can have such a large number of long-range attack weapons, I am afraid that there is no other thing in the world except for our Daming, right?" ”

These words are full of confidence, and they come from the mouth of a victorious general like Qi Jiguang, and they are not offensive.

It's a pity that Zhang You's body lives in the soul from the next generation, and Qi Jiguang in front of him has a heavy responsibility, and he is undoubtedly high-spirited, but he understands that if there is no external force to promote, and if history is allowed to develop according to the original trajectory, in less than seven years, the high-spirited Jizhen general soldier in front of him will die in poverty and illness.

Every time I read Wang Daokun's epitaph for him, writing "Kouji No. 3, the star will fall", it always makes Zhang You feel sad, this sadness is not only for Qi Jiguang's experience, but also because in that year, the Spanish fleet had been prepared to go to Britain, and it was also because the Ming Empire, which had lost Qi Jiguang, had completely lost the opportunity to rearm.

It is also because after another thirty years, the officers and soldiers of the empire and Nurhachi's troops clashed, lacking the tactics and organizational discipline that General Nantang painstakingly formulated, and suffered a heavy defeat.

And all this is exactly what Zhang You tries to avoid.

After a trance, he smiled bitterly and retracted his thoughts, and said: "What the marshal said, it should be good, but Western countries have begun to equip firearms on a large scale, let them develop, sooner or later, they will open strong ships and cannons to invade our Ming Empire, just like the Japanese who rebelled in the south a few years ago." ”

"Zicheng is worried about it, the Western barbarians are far away from the ocean, according to the records of the first eunuch Zheng He, they are all the countries of projectiles, so it is really as you said, send the power of the whole country to attack my Huaxia, and for my Lang Huaxia, it is just a disease of scabies!"

Liang Menglong said with a smile, the anti-Japanese hero Qi Jiguang didn't think so, he knew that those Japanese were powerful, the real Japanese were not only brave, but the weapons used, whether they were Japanese knives or firearms, were much more sophisticated than those produced by the Ming Dynasty, and their firearms manufacturing process was said to come from the West.

He didn't want to refute Liang Menglong, so he groaned and asked, "It's really as you said, how to deal with it?" ”

"Dashuai, this is what I have been taught?"

Qi Jiguang nodded: "It's not a good test, let's learn from each other!" The meaning is the same, but it sounds more tactful.

Liang Menglong didn't speak, but his expression was quite meaningful, he was actually very curious, didn't Zhang You know how to do some medical skills, and then made something like a hot air balloon parachute that was advantageous to the military, why could so many people including Zhang Juzheng, Li Rusong, Li Wenjin, and even His Majesty the Emperor and the wise and wise old lady of the saint value it?

This is also Qi Jiguang's original intention when he invited him to come here with him, he pondered again and again, and finally nodded. To be honest, don't look at the impulse at the beginning, he gave Zhang You a word, but deep in his heart, he actually didn't pay much attention to this young man who was in the limelight - he was different from Qi Jiguang, he read the book of Confucius and Mencius, and took the right path of the imperial examination.

To tell the truth, even if Zhang You is Zhang Juzheng's illegitimate son, he, the spokesperson of Zhang Juzheng's military, doesn't want to get too close to him.

Both of them are great figures in the empire, and Li Yan couldn't help but secretly sweat for Zhang You.

While he was talking, Bi Hongquan walked in with the brewed tea, Zhang You let Liang Qi and the others first, and he took the tea cup and took a sip, with this action, he had already sorted out his thoughts, stood up, and slowly paced back and forth, while saying:

"Dashuai's question sounds simple, but it's actually a big question, and the court bigwigs are afraid that they won't be able to give you a positive and correct answer...... This question, in the final analysis, is actually a question of the foundation of the country, this dynasty governs the country with etiquette, moral education in the world, this is nothing to argue, but I think that these can only be regarded as the basic national policy of the imperial court to govern the world, if you want the country to be rich and strong, the world is peaceful, the most fundamental, in fact, it is inseparable from strong armaments. And the strength of the military, isn't that what the two bosses and Lord Motosuke have been doing? ”

In the eyes of Liang Menglong and Qi Jiguang, Zhang You is too young, so young that he can just see a little beard on his chin, listening to him talk about the world's major events, it always makes the two of them feel a little weird, but the last sentence is very comfortable for the two people, Liang Menglong laughed first, pointed at Zhang You and said: "Okay, you are honest, Yuan Jing is obviously asking you how to deal with it, you have a long speech, and in the end this is kicking the ball back, right?" ”

Li Yan and Qi Jiguang didn't speak, but their eyes were burning and staring at Zhang You.
