At night, in Liu Xiu's tent, the light reflected the figures of the two figures together in the tent. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"General, I'm ready, you come."
"Alright, I'm here."
"Slow down, slow down."
"What's the matter, you can't just open it a little bigger? I can't get in like this. ”
"You wait, I'll make it bigger, you put it in again, I haven't done it for a long time, it's a little rusty."
"Uh-" Liu Xiu took the "Taiping Sutra" in his hand, and looked at Mrs. Lu who stretched the green sac with four fingers, his eyes widened. Mrs. Lu waited for a long time, and raised her head in surprise to look at Liu Xiu: "General, what are you waiting for, let it in." ”
Liu Xiu licked his lips, responded in embarrassment, put the already rolled "Taiping Sutra" silk into it, then turned around, clenched his fists and faked a cough: "Madam, it's not early, rest early." As soon as the words came out, he felt that these words seemed even more inappropriate, and he was a little at a loss for a while.
Mrs. Lu also realized this, her face flushed, and she subconsciously glanced at the direction of the inner tent lying in the wind and snow, and hurriedly got up and said, "Then I'll go first, and the general will rest early." ”
"Uh-huh, uh-huh." Liu Xiu nodded again and again, didn't get up, just nodded to Mrs. Lu. He was not rude, he didn't dare to get up, just a few words, and Mrs. Lu's blushing in an instant, actually made him react, if he came together, he would definitely show his stuffing, and he didn't know how embarrassing.
Mrs. Lu went out of the tent and took the tent door with her, Liu Xiu threw the "Taiping Sutra" in her hand, and was about to rush to the bed, when Zhang Yan's voice came from outside: "Is the general asleep?" ”
Liu Xiu rolled his eyes, sighed secretly, and hurriedly said, "Is it Miss Zhang?" ”
"Yes, I came to visit late at night, and I ask the general to forgive me."
"It's okay, it's okay, I haven't slept yet. You come in. Although Liu Xiu was annoyed, he also knew that if there was no important matter, Zhang Yan would not come to him at this time. Speaking of which, Zhang Yan has also been busy for a day and a night. Zhang Ming has just passed away, she has just taken over the Yellow Turban Army, and a lot of things are waiting for her to arrange.
"Then disturb the general." As soon as the tent door was lifted, Zhang Yan walked in, stood at the tent door and waved his hand, his pale face was a little apologetic. Although Zhang Ming died in the evening, he was too seriously injured. The corresponding things are ready. However, at this time, the funeral is very complicated, and there are many annoying things, just before the convergence, there is a series of hand sequences such as conjuring spirits, bathing and meals, and then there are large and small gatherings, crying and mourning, and this series of busy is over, and there is a funeral, including memorials, funerals, coffins, etc., and finally three years of mourning. They are said to be the Taoists. It is different from ordinary families, but the Confucian etiquette of the Han Dynasty has been immersed in the lives of ordinary people, and this funeral is only more than that of ordinary people. It won't be less. Zhang Ming has no son, only such a righteous daughter, of course, all matters must be handled by her, which is enough to make her so busy that she hits the back of the head.
Although the filial piety clothes have not yet been worn, Zhang Yan has removed all the ornaments, and even the hilt of the sword is wrapped in white cloth. Her eyes were red and bloodshot, and she looked very haggard, but her eyes were firm, even with a hint of fierceness.
"I'm here to disturb the general so late. I'm so sorry. After Zhang Yan took a seat, she saluted Liu Xiu again, and her etiquette was so thoughtful that Liu Xiu reminded her of the woman who was known for her thoughtfulness in later generations. Some people say that the etiquette of the later generations has the Han and Tang Dynasties, and they are more particular than the Chinese, Liu Xiu has always disagreed, but looking at Zhang Yan, who has apologized twice in a moment. It suddenly seemed to him that there was some truth in that.
"If the girl has anything, just say, since we want to cooperate, don't be too polite."
Yan put his hands on his legs, was silent for a moment, and took out a hand-copied, thin book from his arms, the words on the face were very beautiful, but not weak at all. "This is the Art of War of King Xiang, I copied it by hand, I heard that the general was looking for Mr. Wang, I guess he probably wanted to ask about this art of war, so I sent it to the general."
Liu Xiu didn't say anything, his search for the kingdom was not just as simple as the art of war, but he didn't need to tell Zhang Yan about this. He took the art of war and flipped through it, and found that this art of war is not long, it is about two or three thousand words, and there is no big set of theories, just talking about some experience in using soldiers, which looks like some notes in peacetime.
Liu Xiu quickly swept the art of war, then put it on the table, and looked at Zhang Yan, who had been looking at him silently: "Does the girl want to send troops?" ”
"General Mingjian." Zhang Yan's eyes flashed: "Right now, there are generals and Mrs. Lu sitting here, the teacher has just passed away, everyone can still listen to my dispatch, wait for a long time, I'm afraid that there will be people uneasy, so ......"
"So you want to win a battle and give yourself some confidence?" Liu Xiu smiled, stretched out two fingers, and gently pushed the art of war over: "Have you watched "Han"? ”
Zhang Yan was stunned, she was talking to Liu Xiu about the war, how did Liu Xiu get to "Han", "Han" is not popular, and there are not many people who can see it.
"The thirtieth volume of "Han" is "Art and Literature Chronicles", and in the military situation, there is a volume of "Xiang Wang", which should refer to this art of war." Liu Xiu lightly tapped the hand-copied volume of "King Xiang's Art of War", "Do you know that the art of war is divided into four categories?" ”
Zhang Yan nodded, the art of war is divided into four categories: military strategy, military situation, soldier yinyang, and soldier skills, and the military situation is mainly about tactics.
"The situation is thunderous, the last to come, the clutch is back, the change is impermanent, and the enemy is also controlled by light diseases." Liu Xiu slowly recited a few sentences: "King Xiang's Art of War, among the eleven soldiers in the military situation, can be described as the best, and it is quite like a soldier. However, after all, this is only a soldier situation, and he is only a general who knows the military situation. ”
Zhang Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, thoughtfully: "The general is saying, I do this, my vision is too small?" ”
"You are now the brain of a million yellow turbans, you are no longer a general who leads thousands of people to charge into battle, and you are not a general who leads thousands of people to fight in formation, you have to consider the situation in Jizhou as a whole, and even the situation in the whole world." Liu Xiu said politely at all: "If you still position yourself as a general who can stand up after one or two victories, then I have to say that I am very disappointed in you." ”
Zhang Yan was a little embarrassed, she bit her lip and lowered her head: "Please give the general advice." ”
Liu Xiu exhaled a turbid breath and slowed down his tone. "It's not easy to fight, you don't need to go to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao will definitely take the initiative to knock on the door when he hears the news of the death of the earthquake envoy, I'm afraid that you won't be able to deal with it when the time comes."
Zhang Yan's face was a little ugly, and her fingers pinched involuntarily. Yuan Shao has not made any movement after the victory in Shaotao, but the news that came back from the inquiry said that Yuan Shao was dispatching troops and was probably waiting for this opportunity. In addition, there were scouts entering their rear, and even daring to go to Shimen Mountain to ambush Liu Xiu, so it was not surprising to attack the Yellow Turban Army.
"But you don't have to worry, the terrain of Montenegro is complicated, Yuan Shao has suffered from this, as long as you don't move blindly, he shouldn't take advantage of anything." Liu Xiu turned to comfort again: "You still follow the previous method, first drag Yuan Shao tired, and then suddenly rush out, but this time, I suggest that you don't leave at once, but occupy it, use it as another base, and develop it well." ”
"Hit out?" Zhang Yan frowned, a little puzzled. Liu Xiu also asked them to use Montenegro as a base, led Yuan Shao to fight guerrilla warfare, and let them go to Jizhou to occupy a piece of land for development, what did it mean? He wouldn't turn the yellow scarf into meat and bones, let them fight with Yuan Shao and lose both, and then come to pick up the bargain.
"Millions of yellow turbans, how much food do you have to consume in a day?" Liu Xiu laughed silently: "Just one merger state, how long can it support you?" If you want to stick to it for a long time, there is only one way, occupy a county, open up wasteland and farm, and be self-sufficient. ”
Zhang Yan's face was a little cold, and she looked at Liu Xiu silently, Liu Xiu's words seemed to have the meaning of unloading the burden. If there is no support from the state, it is impossible for the Yellow Turban of Montenegro to support it, and Yuan Shao can watch them occupy a county?
"Don't look at me like that." Liu Xiu scratched his eyebrows helplessly, "There are nearly one million yellow scarves in Montenegro, but how many people are there in the state?" There are only 500,000 or 600,000 people in the entire state, do you think the state has such a large financial resource to feed you millions of people? Don't say you buy, you have money, I don't have food, Bingzhou only has so much surplus grain a year, last year I supported you with the surplus grain accumulated in the past few years, and the granaries in Bingzhou are now empty, you just take Jinshan, and I don't have any grain to sell to you. ”
Zhang Yan thought about it carefully, and also had a headache. Bingzhou is sparsely populated, and there is indeed no food, and it is indeed unrealistic to rely on the support of Bingzhou for a long time, but it is not very realistic for Liu Xiu to let them occupy a county and farm their own land.
"Then where does the general think we should occupy it?"
"I suggest you go to Toyama. First, Changshan is your township and Zhao Zilong's township, and you have a network foundation. Second, Changshan is backed by Taihang, and there is a Jingcheng that leads directly to Taiyuan, in case something happens, Zhao Zilong may directly send troops to support you, and you can also retreat into Taihang Mountain, or even retreat into the realm of Bingzhou. ”
Zhang Yan pondered for a moment: "Is it convenient for the state army to support us?" ”
"Convenient." Liu Xiu nodded, paused for a moment, and said: "If you want to be more convenient, you can hand over the table to the imperial court, the Son of Heaven will make you an official, and you will be a legitimate court official in the future, and Yuan Shao will beat you again, we may not only support you with strong reasons, but also logically start a war with Yuan Shao." ”
"Surrender?" Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head vigorously: "No, my teacher just died, I can't surrender." ”
Liu Xiu smiled: "There are too many things you have to prepare at the moment, and I don't want to rush too much." However, I suggest you think about it when you have time. Actually, it's a strategy. ”
Zhang Yan took a deep breath, held her breath, and slowly spit it out after a while, and shook her head resolutely: "I admit that this is a strategy, but the anniversary of the great sage and good teacher has not passed, and the teacher has just passed away, so I can't mention this topic at this time, otherwise, the Taiping Dao will really be over." "To be continued.
