In the Battle of Changping in history, Zhao Kuo also led the combat troops to chase all the way into the encirclement of the Qin army, and the heavy grain and grass were pulled in the rear, but they were cut off by the Qin army, and the end could not echo, and the soldiers had no food to eat, and they were trapped in the Danshui River Valley.

If he wants to be a good general, he has to start now.

So Mingyue took the lead and called him "a dangerous move for a hundred miles to fight for profit".

Through the events of the previous few days, Zhao Kuo lost his arrogance in front of Mingyue, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Yes, "Wu Sun Tzu's Art of War" does say that the armor is tended to be everywhere, day and night, double the road, and fight for profit, then capture the three generals, the strong one first, the tired one later, and the eleventh one...... It is the old army that will die if it has no baggage, die if it has no food, and die if it has no accumulation. ”

At this time, he fell into a paradox, frowned, and said: "But it is also said in the art of war, it is not difficult to fight in the army, there is nothing more important than the first to fight for the conditions for victory, with all the baggage to fight for profit, it will affect the speed of the march, and you can't reach the battlefield before the enemy, so you lose the opportunity......"

Mingyue said: "Of course, this has to be judged according to the actual situation, weigh the pros and cons, and act with the camera." ”

With such an analysis, Zhao Kuo realized: "However, it is also said in the art of war, when you need to be fast, you should put down your baggage, which is as fast as the wind, and when you need to be cautious, you should protect your baggage, and its Xu is like a forest...... It seems that in the face of different situations, different tactics must be used. ”

Mingyue said earnestly: "This is the most test for the general, the art of war is actually a dead thing, it is not difficult to recite the above articles, the difficult thing is how to use it in practice." If you want to sum it up in one sentence, it is the battle after the battle, the art of war, the magic of use, and the heart! ”

"How wonderful is the use, but there is one mind?"

Zhao Kuo was greatly shocked, savoring this famous sentence of Yue Wumu, which came out in advance through the mouth of Chang'an Jun, to command operations to flexibly use strategy and tactics, and the ingenuity in it is to be good at thinking and judging.

After a long time, he shook his head and said: "In the past, I thought that the way of using soldiers was simple, but my father said that I was arrogant, and I didn't think so. This way of fighting is really complicated, in the past, I was arrogant and underestimated it, and it is indeed a place where soldiers die and live, and we must not ignore it. ”

If you can have a sense of reverence for the use of soldiers, and learn humbly and calmly, you will still be saved.

Mingyue said with a smile: "Kuzi is still young, as long as he thinks diligently and has more experience in leading soldiers, he will definitely be a general in the future." ”

Zhao Kuo said: "In my opinion, Chang Anjun also has a deep understanding of the art of war, and not everyone can say such incisive words as 'the magic of use, with one heart'. ”

Mingyue laughed and said: "I don't know the art of war, nor do I know how to generalize the soldiers, I just talk about the troops on paper. ”

Now is the Warring States Period, the era of war has been extremely specialized, professional things, still have to be handed over to special generals to do, Mingyue doesn't want to follow the example of drawing a formation map for the generals thousands of miles away to follow the Song Dynasty emperor......

"What is paper?" As soon as Zhao Kuo asked, he realized that he had just said something smooth.

"Without him, the brackets will know later."

Mingyue snorted, continued to ride forward, pointed to the field in front of her and said, "Bracket, you and I will compete to see who arrives first!" ”

……

In this impromptu competition, Mingyue was naturally defeated, and Zhao Kuo was able to beat him a lot on the bow horse, and he was immediately triumphant, wanting to laugh at him.

However, Chang'an Jun, who arrived later, had a solemn face, looked at the farmland on the left and right, and said, "Why is the field near here being cultivated so late? ”

Only then did Zhao Kuo notice that in the fields, in addition to the calf-high winter wheat, more fields were still bare, and many farmers were wearing calf nose pants, or short beats, or shirtless under the hot sun with plows, hoes and other farm tools to turn the soil.

Mingyue secretly counted that there were very few families with ploughing cattle, and most of them were working by manpower.

Behind the peasants, peasant women, also dressed in rough clothes, followed the peasants to sow the seeds of millet, and with each grain they planted, they knelt down on the ground, bent down, and carefully buried them, so that in the long run there was no older peasant woman who did not hunch.

Plant a grain of millet in spring, harvest 10,000 seeds in autumn, millet is called millet in later generations, is considered to be "the length of five grains", is the main crop in the Warring States Period, because it is resistant to dry and cold, the growth period is short, and the plateau barren land can also be planted.

"That's right, it's more than ten days later than my family's Purple Mountain."

Zhao Kuo is a man who only knows the art of war and does not know the crops, so he naturally can't tell the reason. However, Wu Dang, the ranger from Dongwu City behind Mingyue, replied: "The Chen's family is adjacent to Qinghe County, and if you know one thing, it must be the county government that organized the people to repair the embankment and labor, so the spring plowing was delayed. ”

Mingyue frowned: "It's really unreasonable, this delay is half a moon, and if you miss the spring rain, the harvest will be greatly reduced." ”

Na Wudang also sneered: "What Chang'an Jun said is right, and when the Tianbu officials come to collect taxes and oral taxes after the autumn, they will not be reduced or exempted at all, and they will still be levied according to the share of previous years." At that time, I am afraid that there will be many poor families who will have to borrow grain from the village chiefs, and after a few years, the previous debts will not be reduced, and the new debts will increase, and I am afraid that they will have to sell their land and become slaves. ”

Mingyue was silent, and then looked towards the field, but saw that in addition to millet, some small fields were still planted with beans, and many ragged and even naked children walked around on the field, holding and chewing on the seeds in their dirty hands, this is their daily snack.

From afar, more than a dozen riders in fresh clothes and angry horses stopped at the edge of the field, and these children looked over one after another, staring blankly at the gentleman dressed in gorgeous clothes on the horse, and the gentleman also looked back at them......

Although it is only a dozen steps away, it seems to be separated by the whole world!

Those children who are thin and thin because of insufficient nutrition, and their heads are a little big, as well as their big eyes and black and white eyes, bring Mingyue a great shock!

In his previous life, he had followed the leader to the countryside and lived in the village, but even the most difficult low-income households in the village were much better off than the farmers in front of him.

Thinking about the big fish and meat with Pingyuanjun in the past few days, and witnessing the situation in front of her, Mingyue panicked in her heart.

Don't dare to look at the envious eyes of those children anymore, and lowered her head, Mingyue saw that she was embroidered with beautifully patterned cuffs, just such a brocade robe, changed to money and corn, it was enough for ten families to live a good life for a year, and the gap between meat eaters and herb eaters was so big.

"Dogs eat people without knowing how to check them, and they don't know how to ...... when they are hungry."

He even had the urge to give all the treasures he was carrying to these people, so that at least they would have enough to eat tomorrow.

But reason told him that doing this would be a drop in the bucket for Zhao Guo and even the people of the entire era, and it would be a while and could not be saved.

Five years later, in the Battle of Changping, when the huge war swept in, the counties and townships around Handan would be hit hard, and their children would be slaughtered in the Changping killing field, and their families would also be affected by the war, displaced, and filled in the ravines.

This is the best of times, and this is also the worst of times, the old society of all evils, everywhere. Mingyue couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and another thought popped up in her mind.

"Confucius once said, "If you are rich, you will be rich, and then you will teach it."

"But what I'm going to do now is the premise of all this......"

"Alive!"

The first thing he wanted to change was the outcome of the Battle of Changping, or even to avoid it outright. Therefore, he knew very well that the purpose of his trip was to go to Qi to gild, not to dictate the living conditions of the peasants under the rule of King Zhao......

But that doesn't mean he turned a blind eye and did nothing.

Mingyue thought that she was going to write a letter to tell Empress Dowager Zhao about the poverty of the people in Qinghe County, and begged her to pay attention to this place and not let the county officials hurt the people. At the same time, he also strictly ordered the ranger guards who rode their horses and whipped: "Be careful with your feet, don't trample on the farmland and trample on a seedling!" ”

Then he hurried and set out on his way home. After witnessing the poverty of the people of Zhao State, the impulse to "do something for this era" in Mingyue's heart became stronger and stronger, making it difficult for him to enjoy everything in peace.

He must go to the country of Qi as soon as possible and start changing the pace of the times on his own.

However, at the beginning of the sunset, when the group returned to the camp by the Qing River, Mingyue found that Gongsun Long was in a hurry to look for himself all over the world.

Seeing Mingyue finally riding back from a distance, Gongsun Long hurriedly trotted over, grabbed his horse's halter, raised his head and said, "Chang'anjun, where did you go?" Tell me about the use of those 'symbols' yesterday! ”
