Chapter 3 Set up a bitter meat plan and talk about real heroes

Tian Chou had thought of several ways to communicate with his son, but finally chose the most direct one, walked into his son's room and said to Tian Jing, "My son came over and discussed with you about my father." The pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu, the assassin of Youzhou, and swore to die for his father. Today, my father wants to return to the township, recruit the subordinates, contact the old department of Bo'an (Liu Yu'an), and crusade against Gongsun Zhan. In order to make Gongsun Chan believe that he is a father, he has to take you as a hostage, and you are afraid to stay here. ”

Tian Jing was prepared in his heart, because the person who designed it was himself, and he had also thought about how his father would tell him, but he didn't expect his father to be so direct. The father's directness is not that he doesn't love himself, but that he believes in himself and gives himself great expectations, so Tian Jing replied without hesitation: "Father rest assured, the child is willing to be a hostage here, and the father does not have to worry about it." ”

Tian Chou was very happy in his heart, thinking that my son would have a bright future in the future. If you have such a child, what a regret in this life. "Child, my father is really helpless to keep you here, at most for four or five years, at least two or three years, my father will send someone to take you back, and then raise troops to take revenge. The child should not be wasted here, for the father to record the outside of the Saiwai and the family cavalry art fragments to you, you can study carefully on weekdays. ”

Tian Jing took his father's handwritten "Records of Experiences Outside the Saiwai" in his hand, looked through it carefully, and saw that in addition to his father's going to Xiguan, out of Saibei, near the North Mountain, straight to Shuofang, and the process of running thousands of miles to Chang'an, there was also a parchment scroll, which drew in detail the geography of the mountains and rivers along the way, the water source of the pass, and the location of the Xiongnu, Xianbei royal court and the main tribes. There is another chapter at the end of the book dedicated to the construction and defense of the 16 gates of Chang'an. This was Tian Jing's surprise.

Tian Chou saw his son's doubts, "My father promised Liu Youzhou the opportunity to welcome the emperor out of Chang'an, and he also secretly planned, so he recorded the defense of the 16 gates of Chang'an in detail. However, because of his father's weak strength, except for Li Dao Guo Yan's henchmen, the princes of the court and the central government are greedy for life and afraid of death to protect their lives, and they are not enough to conspire. So it hasn't been possible. ”

Hearing Tian Chou say this, Tian Jingfang knew that there were such twists and turns, otherwise his father would not have stayed in Chang'an for more than a year, if it was just the table, maybe he would have come back a year earlier, in that case, Liu Yu would not have died at the hands of Gongsun Zhan. But it's useless to think about these now, and then pick up the fragment of the art of war and look at it, Tian Jing is even more like a treasure.

The cavalry became an independent army, probably starting with the cavalry of King Wuling of Zhao Wuling, but it was the Qin people who really applied cavalry to the war and achieved brilliant results. The cavalry of the Qin army played a decisive role in many decisive battles, such as the Battle of Changping, when the Qin general Bai raised 5,000 elite cavalry to cut off the Zhao army, which played a pivotal role in the total annihilation of the 400,000 Zhao army. Later, Wei Qing and Huo Qu commanded tens of thousands of cavalry, using roundabout outflanking and going deep behind enemy lines to defeat the Huns. There are very few examples of cavalry warfare, and there are even fewer laws of war, and the cavalry tactics are mostly taken from the Huns and other Hu people, and there has been no system, and I didn't expect that Tian Chou actually has a fragment of the cavalry art of war.

Tian Chou saw that his son liked the family heirloom art of war, and his face showed a proud look. "The ancestor was one of the 500 warriors under the tent of Tian Heng, the king of Qi, and he saw Xiang Yu's 30,000 cavalry breaking Liu Bang's 500,000 coalition army, and recorded Xiang Yu's tactics and formations in detail and dedicated them to Tian Heng. After Tian Heng's death, all the 500 warriors who stayed on the island committed suicide to martyrdom, only the ancestors stole their lives, not afraid of death, but they couldn't bear to be wiped out by this Yu's cavalry tactics. After the death of the ancestors, this art of war was passed down from generation to generation, but it was lost from generation to generation, and it has long been broken. When my grandfather studied this art of war, he found that the core of the cavalry was the war horse, so the family moved to the place where horses were produced in Liaodong, and we had the surname Tian. ”

Tian Jing was fascinated by what he heard, but he didn't expect that there would be such a relationship at home. The art of war is even more cherished, and the two books are carefully put away.

Tian Jing put the book away and said to Tian Chou, "Daddy has a question in his heart, maybe he asks his father?" ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Tian Chou said with a smile.

"Gongsun Chan can be considered a hero?" Tian Jing asked.

Tian Chou thought for a while and said: "Gongsun Chan is resolute and resolute, has a good rule, has been on the battlefield for a long time, and has outstanding achievements, so he can become a famous general." However, he is greedy for money and good things, cruel and easy to kill, trusts Xiaoxiao, and criticizes the people, so he is not a master, let alone a hero. ”

"So Liu Youzhou can be considered a hero?" Tian Jing asked again.

"Bo'an Gong is loyal to the Han family, lenient and loves the people, Guang Enxin and recruited Zhang Chunyu Party, opened the mutual market and Huairou Saiwai barbarians, the peaceful and prosperous times can be dominated by the world, but in this troubled era it is a useless place for heroes." Tian Chou let out a long sigh after speaking.

"That being the case, why does my father have to raise swords again for Liu Youzhou, even if he drives away Gongsun Zhan, can Liu Youzhou's old troops govern Youzhou well and protect the safety of the people?"

This paragraph really stopped Tian Chou. He only thought about being able to avenge Liu Yu, but he forgot the original intention of doing so. "Jing'er is really getting more and more promising, but in turn she enlightened her to become a father. But Jing'er is right, a father should not be obsessed. When I go back for my father, I will definitely think of finding peace for the people, saving one person is one person, living as a family, and the people of the world want to be supported by the people of the world. ”

Tian Jing saw Tian Chou like this, and a stone in his heart fell to the ground, and his father had a new choice, at least in the short term, there would be no more war in Youzhou, and his relatives would not sacrifice needlessly. As for Gongsun Zhan, his old opponent Yuan Shao is waiting for him to make a mistake, and he should have worked hard as soon as possible.

When Tian Chou was leaving, he carefully told Tian Jing for a long time, what to do if he was bullied, what to do if he wanted to write a letter to his family, and what to do if Gongsun Zan asked Tian Jing to be loyal...... It's not like the usual style, it's quite a bit of an old cow licking a calf.

"The children have written it down." Tian Jing agreed to his father's requests one by one.

"Wu'er, do you know the truth that is rigid and easy to break." Tian Chou said a word to everyone.

"Endure what ordinary people can't endure, children know." Tian Jing replied seriously, "By the way, after the father leaves, the child has to write many letters." No matter how bitter it is, my father doesn't have to worry about it. ”

Tian Chou was stunned for a moment when he heard this, could it be that this kid has something to hide from me.

After Tian Chou and his wife returned to Wuzhong County, Guan Jing often came to urge Tian Jing to write a letter to his family after ten days and a half, and the content of the letter was read by him word by word, "What a lonely and miserable person, thinking about it day and night", "A young man can't always accompany his mother's knee when he leaves home", "Under the fence, he is often blinded by the people in the house", "The shogunate is harshly reprimanded, and he is humiliated every day", etc., in short, it is written more and more miserable every time, but Tian Chou does not seem to be worried, although the reply is very fast, there are only three words each time, "and endure." Guan Jingqi's seven orifices were smoking, and he even came to ask Tian Jing if he was Tian Chou's biological son.

After a few more months, Guan Jing finally found that he seemed to have been tricked by Tian Chou's father and son. But now I can't tell Gongsun Zhan, wouldn't that be a stone to shoot myself in the foot. Guan Jing was resentful in his heart, but he thought about it, since it was a bitter plan, then it was real, I will see if this Tian Jing can hold it, and whether his father Tian Chou can still be as stable as Mount Tai.

One day later, Guan Jing sent a message to Gongsun Zhan, saying that Tian Jing was locked up in someone else, and he consumed rations every day, so it was better to put Tian Jing into the miscellaneous servants in the house, carry water and chop firewood, and live in the firewood room with his subordinates. There are people in the house who are watching, but they are not afraid that he will run away, and the punishment for doing miscellaneous labor is also an insult and warning to Tian Chou.

Not long after this statement, Tian Jing had already started his life in the firewood room. To carry water, two large tanks of water should be filled every day, and more than ten bundles of firewood should be chopped out every day. However, Tian Jing was peaceful, insisting on carrying water and chopping wood every day, without even complaining. Now Guan Jing is even more suspicious that Tian Jing is Tian Chou's son, how can a child of a family do this cheap business without complaining, and he can still persevere. But if you think about it, it's useless, Tian Chou really only has such a son, and he is well known to everyone, and he can't be faked.

This time, Guan Jing did not pass Tian Jing, but wrote a letter to Tian Chou himself, to the effect that he maintained Tian Jing in many ways, but Gongsun Chan did not allow it, and wanted Tian Jing to do the cheap labor of carrying water and chopping firewood.

The letter was sent, and finally had some effect, Tian Chou replied a few lines, which is the content of "Mencius", "Therefore, the heavens will descend to the great task of people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they are tempted to endure and benefit what they cannot." ”

Guan Jing tore the paper in a rage, but came up with a more ruthless way, which was to let Tian Jing live in the horse pen and feed the horses every day.

Tian Jing learned to ride horses freely and was quite familiar with the habits of horses, but he had no experience in feeding horses. But fortunately, there are special stables for raising horses, Tian Jing is modest, and he learns the skills of raising horses with the stables every day, and eats and sleeps with the horses.

When I woke up that morning, I heard a dragon's neighing in the stable, causing the horses in the pen to neigh in response. When Tian Jing came out to see, he was stunned, this is really a good horse, as the so-called "dragon's spine sticks to the money, silver hooves and white smoke", this horse is called the white dragon horse, it is really a horse that is unique in ten thousand. Look at the knight next to the horse, eight feet long, thick eyebrows and big eyes, broad and heavy-faced, holding a bright silver spear in his hand, majestic, and a green steel sword hanging from his waist.

Seeing this person, Tian Jing couldn't help but be stupid, there are such heroes in the world? Tian Jing suddenly remembered a person, could this person be - Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong of Changshan Zhending?

Tian Jing just wanted to go up and ask questions, but saw that the knight took two horses from the horseman's hands, flew onto his white dragon horse, and rode away with three horses.
