Chapter 898: Bamboo canes and shoes are lighter than horses
In the small courtyard, Sun Wu's few belongings have been wrapped in a piece of cloth, a stack of paper books threaded together with twine, a Qingfeng sword that has accompanied him for many years, a sword that has drunk countless blood, clothes and shoes to be washed, and some gold cakes, silk silks, and copper coins used to exchange food, and it is almost the same.

Seeing Wu Feng carrying a sword on his back and sullen on the side, Sun Wu smiled and said: "When I went south from Qi State, I didn't have these complete luggage, I only had a sword and three Qi swords by my side, and I spent it soon after I left Linzi." Next, there is a thousand miles of travel, just like your father back then, he was half deceived and half begging, all the way to Wu State, and when he arrived at Dajiang, he had no half of a good cloth on his body. β
Wu Feng is young, naΓ―ve, and very resistant to parting, and his eyes are sour when he listens to it.
"Takeko must go? 's father is the prime minister of Wu, as long as he has his father's protection, who can force Wuzi to leave? β
"What do you know? Go down! It happened that Wu Zixu came from outside, and with a scolding, he drove Wu Feng, who had tears in his eyes, out.
After his son ran out of the door, Wu Zixu said: "Actually, Changqing doesn't have to leave, the matter has been leaked, even if you bear this charge, Bo Yao will also lead the trouble to my head, the king will apply for punishment at the lightest, and dismiss the prime minister at the worst, it doesn't matter if you have you or not." β
Sun Wu said with a smile: "There are four seasons in the sky, spring and winter; People have ups and downs, and Tai will eventually fail. I've been in Wu for a long time, I can't be attached to the scenery here, and I want to see the scenery elsewhere. β
Wu Zixu is concerned about this: "Where does Changqing want to go?" β
Sun Wu already had a certain number in his heart: "Chu Yue can't go, I want to go north." β
"North? Could it be that he is returning to his hometown of Qi? β
In Wu Zixu's mind, Sun Wu is the son of the small sect of the Chen family, when he went out, the Chen family was suppressed by the country and high, Sima Sui Tho died, and now the Chen family is Zhengqing, his rich half of the Qi country, and his pawn has three armies, which is a good opportunity for Sun Wu to return to his hometown.
Moreover, the Bao family of Qi State and Wu Zixu are also good friends, he has always advocated that Wu Qi be friendly, and Sun Wu went to Qi State, which is a good choice.
Sun Wu shook his head: "Chen Qi, the head of the Chen family, is a deceitful person, and I have not been able to get along with him since I was a child, not to mention that when the clan uncle died, the Chen family did not lend a hand because he hated him for being loyal to the country and not to his family. Although it is said that the fox must be the first hill when he dies, I have been away from home for 30 years, and I have regarded other places as my hometown, Qi country, and I don't want to return. β
"What's more, the country in danger is not entered, the country in chaos is not lived, the country of Qi has been surrounded by the Zhao family on all sides, when the Zhao family has not moved, the Chen family can still survive, once the Zhao family is ready, and the United Yan, Lu, Wei, and Song besiege it, the Qi country is in danger."
He stroked the sword that had accompanied him for many years: "Sun Wu's best years, his skills, have been used in Wu Guojian, wading Huai over Si, fighting thousands of miles away, and breaking the strong Chu with Wu Shigan and the west, and shocking the princes, it is enough, I returned to the north to retire and live in seclusion, and I don't want to get involved in the chaos of war again." β
"So where are you going? Qin, Song, Zheng, or ...... Advance? β
"What I want to go to is the Zhao clan of the Jin Kingdom." Sun Wu smiled narrowly, "Zixu is willing to let him go?" β
Wu Zixu's face changed slightly, and then he sighed, he couldn't protect himself, could he still care where his old friend went? "Jin has three points, it is really three kingdoms, Fang today, Zhao, Wu, and Chu are tied for power, and the Zhao family has also secretly sent someone to invite Changqing, indeed, there is no place safer than Zhao's Hebei, and it may be a good destination for Changqing."
Sun Wu shook his head: "Zixu misunderstood, that letter has been rejected by me, I just want to go for a walk by myself." β
He looked to the north, a hint of longing and curiosity in his eyes.
"Six years ago, I prophesied to the first king, the six kings of the Jin Kingdom, Fan, the first king of the Bank of China, the second of the Zhi family, and Han Wei second, only the Zhao family is strong, and now it has come true. I have been training as a soldier for half my life, and I am very curious, why can Zhao Jun be invincible in the north? β
From the time Zhao Wuxian emerged in the Lu State ten years ago, Sun Wu began to pay attention to this young man, the Battle of Jixi, the Battle of Mengzhu, the Battle of Fangong, the Battle of Chaoge, the Battle of Wenshui, the Battle of Changping, the Battle of the Extinction Dynasty, the Battle of the Faqi River, and the Battle of Shaoliang...... The rough situation of these battles was passed on to Wu by merchants from the south to the north, and Sun Wu was eager to collect and understand, either sighing for Zhao's opponents, or applauding Zhao Wuxian's wit.
Sun Wu's theory of the use of troops was based on the use of dense infantry phalanxes against traditional chariot soldiers. However, just when he was training Wu Guojia and thought that this was the strongest army in the world, Zhao Wuxian in the north actually built a professional heavy army, Zhao Wushu, and even carried out Difu cavalry shooting, and had a light cavalry that Sun Wu was also envious.
This class of troops is enough to change the laws of war.
Later, iron weapons were used in the army, and all kinds of unbelievable siege machinery emerged in an endless stream, and the amazing efficiency broke Sun Wu's theory of "the law of siege is a last resort", forcing him to mention it in a special article in the art of war. But because he couldn't see the true face of Zhao's equipment, he could only be ambiguous.
He also had a itch, wondering if Zhao and Wu fought, who would win or lose, but unfortunately, Sun Wu really didn't dare to compliment the current situation of Wu, and this thought could only be buried deep in his heart.
However, he also liberated himself, he could get out of the north, go to the territory of the Zhao family, and see the situation of his counties with his own eyes.
However, he didn't want to be praised by the Zhao clan as a guest and do things for them, in that case, if one day Zhao Wu fought against the army, or the Zhao clan attacked the Chen clan of Qi State, he would be embarrassed.
"Zixu don't worry, I will hide my name, go away, and don't let the Zhao family notice me, as for staying or not, let's see."
After that, Sun Wu wrapped up his luggage, rolled it up at will, threw it on his shoulder, and walked towards the courtyard, the housekeeper of Xiangbang Mansion opened the back door to the path for him, Sun Wu stood outside the door and bowed to Wu Zixu.
"Zixu, don't leave it at that!"
"Changqing cherishes all the way!"
Wu Zixu also bowed to the ground for a long time, and for some reason, he had a vague premonition: he and his old friend were only afraid that it would be difficult to meet again in this life......
Sun Wu refused his gift of chariot and horse, and only brought a small servant, wearing a hat on his head, wearing a robe, stepping on straw sandals suitable for walking in the south, and carrying a bamboo cane, and walked slowly along the stream towards the outside of the city, singing a long-ago ballad as he went......
"Ming Yi flies, hangs his left wing; A gentleman is in line, and he does not eat for three days. β
He came chicly, empty-handed, accompanied only by a sword.
In the past 20 years, he has eliminated the enemy, created 100,000 Wu soldiers, and dominated the southern kingdom and the princes. Before he knew it, his head was already gray, and he should have disappeared, but due to the deviation of history, he finally chose to go north.
When he goes, he is also comfortable, bamboo canes and shoes, better than galloping horses and horses, a cloud of smoke and rain, the world is at his disposal! As everyone knows, his life at a glance has an extra question mark......
β¦β¦
At the same time, Yue Wang Gou Jian and Fan Li and his entourage have also arrived in Zhejiang, standing in the carriage, seeing the mountains and rivers of Yue Guo reshowing, the world is clear, and the Yue Wang Lady sighed: "I have despaired, never leave the people, how can I return to my hometown in this life?" After speaking, he hid his face and cried, but Gou Jian was silent, just looked at the ministers and people who greeted him on the other side of Zhejiang, thoughtful.
Wen Chong had already come with a big boat to greet him, and King Yue and his entourage crossed the river by boat, and asked his wife to invite the mysterious Yue girl who rescued them at Sanjin Pass again, and returned with them to stay in the Huiji Palace.
She calls herself "the virgin girl of the Yue", her home is in the reckless Nanlin, she is alone like a savage mandrill, the more people are not good at swordsmanship, this Yue girl has a superb swordsmanship, praised by the people. Gou Jian was trapped in front of Huiji Mountain, and had already heard of her reputation, and then the country was imprisoned, bent on revenge, and urgently needed all kinds of capable people, so he asked Wen Chong to visit, and finally found it for them, after the trial, it was found that this Yue Nu swordsmanship was natural, and no one could be a swordsman in the Yue Palace.
The Yue people are still largely in the state of tribal chiefdoms, Gou Jian is the co-master of the Yue people, the king of all the people of the mountains, rivers and grasslands, and the Yue Nu also said that as long as she is not restricted from coming and going freely, she is willing to work for Gou Jian. Knowing that Gou Jian had returned, Wen Chong felt uneasy, so he asked her to go halfway to greet her, but who expected that Gou Jian was in danger.
However, now, Yue Nu rejected Gou Jian's request to invite her to return to Huiji together, and did not salute, rowed a bamboo raft, and went towards the sea in Zhejiang.
Looking at her distant back, Gou Jian couldn't help but praise Wen Chong and Fan Li: "Yiren, if you can use it for me and teach soldiers with her swordsmanship, why worry about Wu Guo not breaking?" β
Wen Chong said: "The king was blessed by the sky, returned to the Yue country, the traces of the overlord started from Si, the Yue girl will definitely be willing to serve, and after returning to Huiji, the minister will bring a heavy gift to Nanlin to invite her out of the mountain." β
Gou Jian nodded, sighed again and said: "The widow has no virtue in the people, and today I am returning in embarrassment, and I have to bother the ministers and the people to welcome each other from afar, and I will definitely revitalize the Yue country to repay the people." β
As soon as he got off the boat, he stepped on the land of Yue Kingdom, and he impatiently bowed to Fan Li and Wen Chong: "Gou Jian is dull, and he is brave for a while, so that he loses his teacher and loses his land, and suffers the shame of Huiji." Now that the country of Yue is declining, how to prosper Yue, report to Wu, and hope that the two doctors will teach me! β
Fan Liwen glanced at each other, what they liked about Gou Jian was this temperament that was not discouraged, humiliated, and more energetic.
So Fan Li first said: "When the minister was in the Chu State, he learned the strategy of Xin Wenzi, and after ten years, the Yue Country can be rich and strong!" β
PS: There will be another chapter in a while, well, Wu Yue Line is over, it's time to set your sights on the north.
