Section IV

Wu Siting is about to be six years old, and this age is the age when kindergarten is enlightened and martial arts takes root. The spear skills that Wu Ming taught Wu Siting only started from the basics, and did not pay attention to the length of the weapon. Whether it is a flat gun, a flower gun, or a spear, it is composed of several actions such as piercing, stabbing, picking, and pressing. Seeing that his son took a horse step and danced with a short gun, he already had a good eye. Wu Ming nodded secretly, and only then did he end his evening homework.

After Zhu Yuqing traveled, there were only three people left in the backyard of Dingguo Gong, and today it was He Yi's turn to sleep. She waited early on the side, seeing that the evening class was over, she hurriedly washed her son, and then coaxed him to sleep, after some tossing, it was late, the moon had climbed to mid-heaven, the husband and wife were about to go back to bed, but a person turned out in the dark, Wu Ming fixed his eyes and looked, but it was Hei Er, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Second master, what's wrong?" ”

Sure enough, Hei Er said in a deep voice: "Something happened, just now there was an urgent report from the west, saying that Persia had gathered nearly 200,000 troops and waved its army north, and in the past ten days, several principalities have been wiped out in a row, and the soldiers are directed at the west and the dust country." Although there are dozens of large and small countries in the West, they have long been in chaos, and it is difficult to organize effective resistance, so Governor He has gathered 50,000 camel horsemen at the request of the dust country to gallop to the aid of the dust. ”

"What?"

The husband and wife were startled and lost their voices at the same time. He Yiqiao's face turned pale and shouted: "The enemy is so powerful, Daddy only ordered 50,000 soldiers to go, it will be fine, right?" ”

Wu Ming comforted: "Don't worry, fighting a war is not just about relying on troops. Back then, the Northern Han Dynasty came violently, and the strength of Governor He's face was worse than now, and he was not beaten back in the end. Besides, there are many deserts in the Gobi in the west, which is just right for the camel battalion to show its strength, if it goes head-to-head, 50,000 camel soldiers may not be the opponent of the other side, but if there is a harassment war in the vast desert, then the result will be reversed. ”

He Yi was still worried: "But the west is not as good as the three northwestern provinces, after all, it is someone else's territory, I am afraid that those small countries will not cooperate, so my father will still suffer." ”

Three years ago, the reason why He Xiaotian was able to repel the attack of the Northern Han Dynasty was that Wu Ming's timely support was one of them, and another big reason was that the He family had been operating in the northwest for many years, and the camel spirit rode on it and galloped on it, just like his own back flower courtyard. Now that the battlefield is in the West, although there are still geographical advantages, there are more small countries in the West, and there will definitely be many variables, which is exactly what Wu Ming is worried about. He thought for a while and said, "I don't know how the three kingdoms of Louju, Xiyi, and Lanshan reacted?" Yu Chenguo is located in the middle of the Western Lands, and if Governor He wants to go to help, he will definitely have to pass through some countries, can he find out his marching route? ”

Louju, Xiyi, Lanshan Three Kingdoms, the strength ranks among the top three in the West, although their area is not large, but if the Three Kingdoms work together, there are still more than 100,000 iron horses, plus He Xiaotian's camel battalion, it is more than enough to resist the Persian soldiers, I am afraid that I am afraid that the heart of the Three Kingdoms is not aligned, then there are many more variables. Sure enough, Hei Er replied: "According to the news from the Western Earth spies, among the Three Kingdoms, Lou Ju made it clear that he would resist to the end, Lan Shan was silent, and Xiyi spoke and said that he supported Persia's northward advance. ”

Wild Wind Pearl is now Simon's main chamber Kedun, and Lou Ju has officially been kidnapped on Simon's chariot, so Lou Ju must have reacted strongly to Persia's northward advance. Lan Shan has always kept a low profile, and it is appropriate to remain silent. As for Xiyi, he has long heard that he is in a relationship with Persia, and he has a feud with the He family, so it is reasonable to support Persia.

Although he had expected it, Wu Ming's heart was still sinking. The strength is not as good as others, and the heart is even more uneven, Governor He's battle is not easy to fight. He was muttering to himself. Hei Er has continued: "As for Governor He's marching route, the old slave has not found out. ”

The spy system of the black guard extends in all directions, the transmission of emergency information, and the selection of special heterogeneous pigeons is competent, and the central and western regions are adjacent to the northwest, from Shacheng to Tingya, and the military pigeons are galloping at all speed, at most two days will arrive. At such a time, He Xiaotian's camel spirit ride has not yet left the three northwestern provinces, and no matter how powerful the black-clothed guard is, he can't predict it.

Wu Ming waved his hand and said, "I know, the second master will go down." ”

Hei Er saluted, and immediately dodged and disappeared into the darkness. Wu Ming turned his head to look, He Yi was still frowning, and couldn't help but feel distressed, stepped forward to hold her pair of soft wattles, and said in a harmonious voice: "What, are you still worried?" In fact, it's nothing, even if Governor He is really defeated, with his kung fu, who can keep him? If Persia dares to continue to advance eastward, I will unite with my father-in-law and beat the little fat man who is looking for teeth all over the place, so that he can know why the flowers are so red, and see that he has nothing to do all day long. ”

He has always been calm and moderate, and it is rare to make jokes, and occasionally such a sentence comes to an effect, but the effect is surprisingly good. He Yi was full of sadness, but at this time, he laughed "poof", glanced at him and said: "Poor mouth, in fact, I am not only worried about my father, but also worried about Sister Zhu, do you think, she just happened to be traveling in the West now, if she really has a good ......"

Wu Ming's heart sank again, as early as when Persia was about to move, he had written to persuade Zhu Yuqing, saying that the West was not very peaceful, and it was the best policy to return as soon as possible, but Zhu Yuqing did not listen to the persuasion, and replied: "The mountains and rains in the West are coming, and the strategic value has increased sharply......

Wu Ming's whip was out of reach, so he could only pinch the believers and cry out. Now that He Yi mentioned this matter, he was also a little worried, and said with a smile: "Xiaoqing is witty, and there is Black Friday and a team of black-clothed guards to protect him, so it is so easy to have an accident, don't worry." ”

He Yi sighed: "I hope so." ”

※※※ Ou Jianrong Ma and the two of them came to Tingya with a large group of subordinates, although they were nominally to meet Wu Ming, in fact, there was a large part of the reason, Ou Zhen wanted to take this opportunity to let the head of the Heavenly Corpse Mountain come out and see the world outside the Great Leak Mountain. Even so, it is not an option to stay in a tent. Seeing that everything was agreed, Ou Zhen proposed that he hoped to go around in the court. Wu Ming happened to have something to do, and it was impossible to accompany him every day, so he approved it and asked the thoughtful Zhou Ji to choose a few teams of personal guards to accompany him. He called Shang Yukun, took Jian Feiyang, who the boss was unhappy with, and went to Dazheng Academy to visit Zhou Zihong together.

Because they got up early, when the three of them arrived at their destination, the sun had just shown its head on the horizon. After the Taizheng Academy moved from Chengzhou, Wu Ming was transferred to Nanning by the Empress Dowager, so that there was time to settle him. A few days after returning to Tingya, he met the surrender of Iwagawa again, and he was even more busy, so until now, more than 100 people in the entire academy are still crowded into a few large tents in the civilian area in the west of the city.

This is located in the downtown area, the three of them walked through the bustling crowd, in a remote corner, Shang Yukun turned over and dismounted, turned to Wu Ming and said: "Grandpa, the teacher hates the most ostentatious person, let's walk to the academy, so as not to cause him dissatisfaction." ”

Wu Ming nodded and said, "Okay." Boss Jian Feiyang was not happy, and when he stepped into the saddle and dismounted, he was still muttering: "There are a lot of stinky rules......

Seeing that his boss was unhappy, Wu Ming suddenly understood. With his character, it is estimated that he rode directly on a high-headed horse yesterday, and Zhou Zihong couldn't rub a little sand in his eyes, so he could give him a good face, which was a strange thing.

Under the leadership of Shang Yukun, the three of them went around a few more times, after seven turns and eight turns. Three large tents appeared in front of them, covering a large area, surrounded by a number of small tents, which were enclosed together by a simple fence. At the top of a large tent in the middle, there is a pair of horizontal flattens, and the four big characters of "Taisho Academy" shine in the morning sun.

Far away, the sound of reading came in a curling voice, Wu Ming looked around, and couldn't help sighing: "It's quiet in the middle of noisy, when I get here, just listening to the sound of reading makes people feel quiet, but the water is really not deep, and there are dragons and spirits." ”

The three of them walked all the way, walked to the big tent and stopped, Wu Ming looked up at the four words "Taizheng Academy", and sighed again: "The point is like a falling stone, the painting is like a summer cloud, the hook is like Qu Jin, and the ge is like a crossbow. With these words alone, it is not in vain today. ”

Shang Yukun has also taken refuge in Wu Ming for several years. Dingguo Gongzi is well written, he has already heard of it, and said with a smile: "Although the teacher is not a battlefield soldier, but the words are written very gracefully, between the iron and silver hooks, the sonorous meaning is better than the grandfather Mobao, and it is not much better." ”

Wu Ming couldn't help but smile and said: "In this way, Mr. Zhou and I are quite like-minded, and when we meet, we have to ask for advice." ”

While the two were talking, a man dressed as a porter greeted him and said, "Oh, isn't this Lord Shang, who came so early today?" ”

Shang Yukun responded with a smile: "It's Li Lao Liu." I happened to be free today, so I came to see the teacher. ”

Seeing that the two of them are familiar with each other, Shang Yukun usually comes a lot. The two of them chatted a few more words, and the three of them crossed the room, bypassed one of the tents, and turned around.

At this time, after about the end of the morning reading, many students rushed out of one of the tents. And there is a hole in the back, although it is a mud floor, but it is very clean, almost dusty. More than a dozen students sat on the ground, and a person who looked like a chair was pacing around the students with a ruler in one hand and a book in the other, and said loudly: "The method of corn: 50 millet rate, 30 rice rice, 27 rice rice, 24 rice ,......"

He turned to a student and stood still, pointed to the ruler and said, "There is a bucket of corn today, and if you want to be a rice dumpling, how much do you ask?" Solvable? ”

The student stood up, bowed, and replied, "Multiply all numbers by what you find to be true, and take all numbers by law, and be true as law." ”

The pulpit was greatly satisfied, and with a turn of the ruler, he pointed to another student: "Today there is a field, fifteen steps wide, from sixteen steps." Ask for Tian geometry. Solvable? ”

The student stood up, still saluted to the gentleman, and said: "Guangcong multiplies the number of steps to get the cumulative step, and divides it by two hundred and forty steps by the mu method, and the answer can be expected, it should be one mu." ”

They said it in a very eloquent manner, Wu knew that he didn't know why, but he also knew that this was teaching arithmetic, and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that Taizheng Academy should attach great importance to arithmetic, and Mr. Zhou really applies what he has learned." ”
