Chapter 41
Li Ce couldn't help but be in awe when he heard this, this is a good official who really asks for his life for the people, he is about to return to Beijing, and the first thing he thinks about is not his future career, but the border construction and the lives of the people here.
Chen Yaozuo saw that Li Ce was bowing his head and pondering, so he smiled and said, "Do you understand what I said?" β
"Well, I understand."
"Oh? Let's talk about it. β
Li Ce was stunned, he was casually polite, but he didn't expect Chen Yaozuo to really test him, so he had no choice but to reply: "Yes, in fact, to put it bluntly, Master, your old man is laying out a big game." β
"Oh? Well, that's a very new statement, you go on. Chen Yaozuo became interested when he heard this, he looked at Li Ce with a smile and motioned for him to continue.
"You are implementing a policy of recuperation and recuperation, looking at the domestic situation of the Great Song Dynasty and Liao, in fact, the Liao State can't consume us at all, let's put it this way, our Great Song Dynasty is going uphill, and his Liao State is going downhill. As long as we survive this period and wait for our national strength to recover, we will launch a deadly war against Liao with the power of thunder, and then we will be able to eliminate the hidden dangers of Liao. So is it okay to go to war now? β
Chen Yaozuo is listening to it, Li Ce's analysis is very correct, every point is on the point, and he thinks the same, I didn't expect that my apprentice has this eyesight at a young age, and he knows how to forbear, which is completely different from the arrogance of most young people at this age, especially some scholars, oh, it's really good.
Chen Yaozuo looked at Li Ce appreciatively and motioned for him to continue, as if he was sober now.
Li Ce looked at him and seemed to be speaking well, and continued with self-confidence: "If the war starts now, it is really unpredictable, the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty has not fully recovered, even if the war is barely won, the economy and people's livelihood of the entire country will regress by at least twenty years!" β
"Huh?" Chen Yaozuo's eyes lit up when he heard this, Li Ce's words just now were extremely shocking, when he and his colleagues were discussing in the court before, everyone also talked about this topic, but at that time they only vaguely felt that it was not very clear, and today Li Ce expressed it so specifically and digitally, only to find that the consequences were so serious!
"Well, the old man is not mistaken, haha, the old man has a good apprentice, and the Great Song Zhongxing is hopeful!" Chen Yaozuo suddenly laughed out loud.
Li Ce also grinned when he saw this, in the silent backyard in the middle of the night, an old man and a young man, the old one held his waist, looked up to the sky and laughed, and the little one looked at the old one and grinned, how could this scene look so awkward......
"Then let Weishi say next, if you calculate it with your thinking, and then start a war after a few years of rest, the price paid by the Great Song Dynasty will definitely be much smaller than it is now, and the odds of winning are much greater, right?" Chen Yaozuo said with appreciation.
"Well, Master, I have a good opinion."
Li Ce learned the history of the entire feudal dynasty in his previous life, and he was very familiar with the grasp of this historical line. In this era, due to the lack of information and the teaching of Confucianism, some flexible ideas are not accepted by everyone. For example, the idea of saving the country with curves, many readers think that the civilized land of the Celestial Empire has the greatest face, how can they be afraid of barbarians like Liao thieves, so they can only stretch and not bend, even if it is temporary!
"Well, maybe I'm too worried about the teacher, after all, there are still many colleagues in the DPRK and China who have the same political views as the old man, and the person who came to take over the old man this time is not necessarily a fierce battle faction." Chen Yaozuo looked up at the moon in the sky and said.
After speaking, he lowered his head, took Li Ce's hand and said: "As a teacher, I am very pleased that you have this insight and vision, if you have more experience over time, the future is limitless, maybe the Great Song Zhongxing will rely on you in the future." Don't be surprised, don't think that being a teacher is too exaggerated, I have read countless people for most of my life, and I won't look away.
After I leave, you must have a good experience in the army, and you must not be too arrogant just because you are a young man. Our Great Song Dynasty has always been a literati who don't touch martial arts, and martial artists can't be literate, but you just have both, in your own words, it's both civil and military, hehe...... In the future, you will go farther than those pure martial artists and literati, don't be too persistent because of the identity at this time, and when the time comes, you will find a way to transfer you to Beijing when the time comes, you have the foundation of literati, plus the efforts of the teacher, presumably those clear streams will not be too difficult for you. The water here on Hebei West Road is shallow, and sooner or later you will have to leave, and then it will be the time when you soar into the sky. Chen Yaozuo said this, pointing to the full moon in the sky.
Li Ce suddenly thought of a poem at this time, and couldn't help but recite it: "With the strength of the good wind, send me to the sky!" "He's also a little drunk, and he says whatever comes to mind.
Chen Yaozuo was so surprised that he turned his head to look at Li Ce and said, "Good poem!" You're still so literate, haha...... You kid always surprises your teacher! Well, with the strength of the good wind, send me to the blue sky! Good, good! β
In fact, Li Ce doesn't know who this poem came from, but looking at Chen Yaozuo's reaction, it seems that he has not heard of it before, it should be made by celebrities after the Song Dynasty, and now he has become original.
"Oh, by the way, seeing that you are also going to be twenty, and you don't have a table word yet, why don't you draw up a table word for you before the teacher leaves?"
"Of course that's great," Li Ce laughed. Haha, wouldn't you have to worry about it in this way, and if someone asks about it in the future, you can also say that my word is taken by my teacher Chen Yaozuo.
"Your single name is a policy word, strategy, on the bamboo and under the wood, which means bamboo and wood, presumably when your father took this name for you, he also hoped that you could be as noble and tenacious as bamboo, and Shi Yuan Zen Master once did Zen poetry: remove the group of flowers and plant this gentleman, and the court is more dust-free; The summer days are idle, and there is still a breeze to borrow from the neighbors. The Zen master pities the world, ostensibly hoping to use the pure air of bamboo to eliminate the annoyance of the heat, but in fact it is consistent with Mencius's idea of "attaining the goal and helping the world". You are young and promising, extraordinary knowledge, the future of the Song Dynasty will be more of a dazzling star, for the teacher hopes that when you and others become famous, do not forget how difficult the people's livelihood is, do more practical things for the people of the Great Song Dynasty, so the teacher will take the word for you - "Jizhi". Chen Yaozuo said meaningfully.
"Li Jizhi?" Li Ce frowned and whispered, why did it sound so awkward......
If you are awkward, you will be awkward, the meaning is still good, you will help the world, helping others is the foundation of happiness, I Li Ce has never been a selfish person, so it is called "Jizhi"!
"Now that you have received the position of commander, you are about to start leading troops, you have no experience in leading troops, and you are a literati, and the atmosphere in the army has always been fierce, I am afraid that your first appointment will not be so smooth, if you really can't stand it, come and tell me, this military attachΓ© of the commander, let's not do it." Chen Yaozuo continued.
"It's difficult at the beginning of everything, I'm mentally prepared for nothing, don't worry, Master." Li Ce smiled, this guy is an official, how can he give it up so casually.
"Okay, then we'll wait and see for the division, well, it's already time now, you are now an official establishment in the army, you have to be bound by this military law, and you have to get up early tomorrow to train the army, it's not too early, go back and rest early." Chen Yaozuo patted Li Ce with satisfaction.
