A secret letter was sent to Qiuzi.

Wang Pu was not by his side—hundreds of students were now studying in various academies, not with a sense of reverence, but with a sense of resentment.

Some time ago, Zhang Mai's admiration for Zhuhu Xianzhe made them extremely uncomfortable! Although many things they have seen and heard in the jungle of Qiuzi Academy have broadened their horizons, in the hearts of the students, how can the miscellaneous studies of Zhuhu be compared with the subtle and extensive university questions of my Huaxia?

Although there are also some Chinese philosophers in the jungle of Qiuci's academy, Laozi, Mozi, and Xuanzang are all just miscellaneous side sects in the eyes of Confucian scholars, not the right path, Qihuang is just a legend, and Ge Hong is even more unpopular! The dignified Confucian sages and sages have no status here! But Zhang Mai's prestige made them dare not express their dissatisfaction in their hearts. Besides, when it comes to all kinds of practical learning, the current Confucianism is indeed problematic. Even if you don't care about things and chemistry, the knowledge in the scope of the six arts is also compared to others, so you really can't defend yourself.

Wang Pu and some student leaders have met I don't know how many times, I feel that this incident is not trivial, with Zhang Mai's current respect for the jungle of Qiuci Academy, and the outline of "Shixue" he promulgated, it is possible to promote this system of Qiuci Jungle as the "orthodoxy" of learning! What's even more terrifying is that Zhang Mai not only admires himself, but also instills these concepts into princes and princesses! This is how to cultivate this awareness among the next generation! This is not a change of one family and one surname, but the authenticity of the academic system for thousands of generations!

Therefore, Wang Pu and others were deeply vigilant and felt that they had to fight back, and while they wrote letters to Shilin in the Central Plains to convey the great events that had taken place here, they themselves tried to reverse this tendency of Zhang Mai -- as for the solution. After discussion, Wang Pu and the others felt that since Zhang Mai felt that these practical learnings were useful, it was very simple, as long as he understood all these learnings, and then surpassed them and defeated them.

Therefore, the 200 students were spontaneously mobilized and scattered to various academies to study in various directions.

I have to say. In this era, Chinese intellectuals are definitely the first in the world in terms of IQ, literacy and knowledge reserves, even if this is still the case in the troubled times of the five dynasties. It's just that you haven't heard of foreign knowledge, but once you hear about it and study it, there is no suspense about surpassing the grandmaster of the original country. At the beginning, Xuanzang traveled west and went to India to learn from the scriptures, but in fact, after he went to India for a tour and transferred to many divisions, he found that there was no opponent for him in the whole of India. So much so that he set up a "beheading debate conference" in India, and no one dared to go up and challenge!

The hundreds of students who came this time may not have geniuses who can compete with Xuanzang, but their IQ and comprehensive quality are quite high, and the students in Kansai are just that, Shandong, Hebei, Henan, that is the place where the seeds of reading are frequent. In addition, most of them had actually come into contact with the outline of practical learning when they were in the Central Plains, and their mentality changed at this time. When you put your energy in, the progress will be very different.

China's science and technology have been developed since ancient times. The most difficult thing about a systematic scientific system lies in its creation -- this is the result of thousands of years of accumulation rather than one or two geniuses, but if there is a system, it will be easy for these students to learn from the foundation. Now that the 200 scholars were stimulated, as soon as they devoted themselves to the study of various scientific knowledge, the teachers of the various subjects in Qiuzi immediately felt pressured.

The principles left by Archimedes are only a dozen essences, and the law of Gewu summarized by Zhang Mai is not too complicated although it is subtle, and the dialectic of the Greeks may not be able to surpass the sons of the Warring States. The logic of the Indians was not completely unfamiliar to the Chinese scholars after Xuanzang, so each of them studied it and soon had a lesson, only the knowledge of the seminary - especially the doctrine of monotheism, the students could not accept it in any case, so no one was willing to study sincerely, and even if someone studied it, all they thought about was how to "break".

――――――――――

Zhang Mai pretended not to know what the students were doing, and since he discussed military affairs with Xue Fu, he took out the secret letter and said: "Yanjing and Liaoyang Mansion, there are people who are ready to move. ”

Qiuci is thousands of miles away from the east, and the news that Zhang Mai got was not immediate, and at this time he did not know that Yang Dingguo was ill, nor did he know the recent situation in Liaoyang Mansion.

Xue Fu said: "Among the Liao people who fell into our hands at the beginning, only Marshal Han Deshu put some effort into installing nails, as for others, such as Xiao Miansi, such as Xiao Han, such as Li Hu, they all let them go back without nails." The marshal did this, but did he expect that these people would make some trouble when they returned? ”

Zhang Mai said: "I'm not an immortal, where can I think so far, but these people can't pose a threat to us if they are put back, not to mention that their political views are different, and they can only add chaos when they return to China, but now it seems that the situation is more optimistic than expected." ”

He paused and asked, "Where is Guo Luo?" ”

Xue Fu said: "It's been to Shule." ”

Zhang Mai said: "Very good. ”

After Xue Fu went out, Zhang Mai knocked on the table and muttered: "Ah Luo came here without prevarication, it can be seen that he has not changed his mind about me, and there will be at least one generation of stability on the other side of the river - that is enough." ”

――――――――――

Liaoyang Mansion knew what happened in Yanjing faster than Zhang Mai.

Although the Tang and Liao countries were in a state of hostility, Zhang Mai never intended to carry out an economic blockade of Liaodong, and the Liao Yuguan was under the control of the Sinicization faction, and also acquiesced to the existence of the private smuggling team. Between Tang and Liao, bulk goods were mainly transported by sea, but sea transportation was seasonal, and the smuggling between Luanzhou and Yuguan was carried out by private smuggling between Guò Luanzhou and Yuguan with the tacit approval of both sides - the same is true of the espionage exchanges between Tang and Liao.

From Yanjing to Luanzhou is only a few counties, after crossing Yuguan, there is a fast horse relay to Liaoyang Mansion, the news of Yang Dingguo's illness is too heavy, and it will be known to the world in a few days, and in less than ten days, even Liaoyang Mansion knows that now the endorsement position of Tang Guoda is vacant, and the important ministers of Yanjing are all intending to compete.

Han Yanhui's father and son were surprised when they heard the news, and the Khitans celebrated with their hands, seeing that Zhang Mai was touring the west, and the chaos in Yanjing came out one after another - the more chaotic the Tang Kingdom, the happier they became, especially Shu Luping. What I was worried about now seems to be the right time to do it.

――――――――――

On this day, news came from the class that he had basically completed his control over the soldiers and horses in Yuguan and southern Liaoning--because of the concessions of the generals of the southern faction, things went quite smoothly.

After Shu Luping found out, he convened the conference again. said: "Now that the northern and southern armies have been integrated, and the Tang State is in civil strife, the mourning family wants to unify the troops and swear to defeat the Tang Dynasty!" ”

The matter of "cutting down the Tang Dynasty" was only said in the court, although there was also gossip that spread to the people, but it has not yet been officially announced, and everyone in the group understood that Shu Luping was just taking the opportunity to unify the three factions this time, and then they heard this and glanced at each other. I thought to myself, could it be that the Queen Mother really wants to fake the show?

Yelu stepped forward and said: "Although the Tang Kingdom is chaotic, its chaos does not come out of Youzhou. The Tang cavalry army was not damaged. Although Yang Yi is abolished, Yu Wei is still there, and there are many generals in the army who dare to fight. The matter of cutting down the Tang Dynasty must be considered in the long run. ”

Shu Luping said: "The Han people have a saying, the opportunity must not be lost, and the loss will not come again!" Now we want to wait for the news from our side in Mobei, and we will not do it again, once the news leaks from there. The last Khitan in Mobei will be bulldozed. So without further ado. ”

Xiao Miansi stepped forward and said: "Even if you really want to cut down the Tang Dynasty, you must first agree on a candidate for the general of the Tang Dynasty." In the class, Samoku is two detailed and stable. Although he is in a high position, it seems that his prestige is not enough to take on this important responsibility. ”

As soon as his words fell, he exclaimed, "Then it goes without saying, of course they can't!" ”

Yelu Wu also said: "Exactly, these two can be deputy marshals, and they can be left behind." The great general of the Tang Dynasty should be appointed by someone with high prestige and noble status. ”

Whoever hears it will know that Jerod is alluding to Jerushchu.

"Exactly, exactly!" As it should be! Said and bowed to Shu Luping: "Queen Mother!" The last general thought that the generalissimo of the Northeast Soldiers and Horses would serve as the generalissimo. It is most suitable. ”

Although it was expected that he would say this, there was still a small number of people above the court meeting.

Xiao Miansi said: "Although Cha Che is now the generalissimo of the Northeast Soldiers and Horses, he is the general of the defeated army of Tiance, and he is not brave enough!" What's more, it's the general who served as the Great General of the Tang Dynasty! ”

When the Tula brothers heard this, they were furious, the generals in this palace, who has not suffered the loss of Tiance Tang Qi? When he said this to his face, he was not just revealing the scars of one person, but the scars of all! Pulling Duo Kuo ran over and grabbed him by the collar and shouted, "What did you say! ”

Yelu Wuzhi also felt that Xiao Miansi's words were out of place, but he still shouted: "Duo Kuo, stop!" ”

Seeing Shu Luping's displeasured expression, he hurriedly went over and pulled his brother away, sneering: "Of course, we are the generals of the defeated army, but it is better than the prisoners who were released in vain. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Miansid's face turned red.

Yeluwu asked: "Everyone, don't be impatient, the so-called victory and defeat are common things in soldiers. The success or failure of the moment is not enough, and Han Gaozu has also been defeated repeatedly in the face of Xiang Yu? But in the end, the next battle was successful, and the world was also pacified. ”

These words flattered everyone in the palace, and no matter whether they were from the south, the north, or the conciliation, they were all comfortable when they heard it. It's not just Yelu Chacha, even if it's Yelu Shuogu, where has he ever gotten any benefits under the iron heel of the Tang Army? Since they are all losers, then the eldest brother will not talk about the second brother.

"However......" Yelu Wuzhi added: "Although Cha Che is brave and good, the position of generalissimo of the Northeast soldiers and horses is suitable for staying in the town and the country, but not for the conquest of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Han Yanhui was very astute, and as soon as he heard it, he sang a double reed and asked, "Then in the opinion of the privy, who is suitable?" ”

Yeluwu said: "Since it is in response to Mobei, it is inevitable that the troops will be divided into two routes, all the way to attack Yanjing, to achieve the strategic effect of encircling Wei and saving Zhao, all the way to attack Mobei, and to respond to the troops on the Mobei side, so it is most appropriate to take the position of generalissimo of the Northwest Soldiers and Horses." ”

When the courtiers heard this, they all thought in their hearts that you had this idea.

Since Shu Luping unified the north and the south and reduced its troops, Yelu Wuzhi and Han Yanhui and others discussed several times, and they all felt that it was better to obey than resist in this righteous name, but they also had to fight for it, and the goal they fought for was to integrate into the conciliation faction, since Shu Luping wanted to establish a new army, then build it, but this new army must have a commander, and when the time comes, it will be enough to fight for this commander.

In their eyes, Yelu Chachai has always been domineering, and he is the son of Yelu Anduan, and he is the cousin of Yelu Deguang, and he has the potential and danger of usurping power and seizing the throne - Abaoji is not dead, and Yelu Anduan did it! comparatively. Even if Yelu Shuogu was in charge of military power, the possibility of usurping the throne was very small, and the relationship between the southern faction and the conciliatory faction had always been better than that of the northern faction, and the political views were relatively close, so Yelu Wuzhi and Han Yanhui both believed that between Cha and Shuo Gu, Shu Lu Ping would definitely be inclined to the latter.

He smiled and said, "The enemy said that the soldiers are divided into two ways. I also agree, since this is the case, let Shuogu lead the partial division in detail, echo Mobei, and lead the army in detail and steadily, and attack Yanjing directly. ”

Xiao Miansi said angrily: "How can it be done!" ”

"Why not! Isn't Shuogu a general of the Northwest Soldiers and Horses? It's time for him to go to the northwest. ”

Xiao Miansi said: "Shuogu is more familiar with the road and military situation of Yanjing, and if you attack Yanjing, you should let Shuogu go steadily." ”

Dragged the explanation: "Then such words are to let Cha cut and go to Mobei steadily?" That knocked down Mobei. Wouldn't he become the generalissimo of the Northwest Soldiers and Horses? Aren't all our official positions in Da Liao all messed up? ”

Xiao Miansi said: "The northeast and northwest are just an official title. It does not mean that Cha Chai is the generalissimo of the northeast soldiers and horses, so he cannot lead the troops to the northwest. ”

"If you say so, then just now the enemy said that in response to Mobei's army, he should send the generalissimo of the northwest soldiers and horses, isn't it like a fart?" ”

Although he is a coarse man, he is not the same as the Dragor, but he is coarse and fine. When these words came out, Xiao Miansi was speechless for a while!

Jerry Duo laughed and said, "Yes, yes." It's fart! ”

The southern faction was furious, and immediately ridiculed it, and the northern faction was not to be outdone, and tore his throat and scolded, the southern faction was more powerful in Liaoyang Mansion and had a larger number of people. But the generals of the northern faction were more rude and louder, and as soon as the two sides quarreled, the entire Great Liao Dynasty would immediately become more lively than the market.

Shu Luping's face darkened, and he shouted, "Enough! Shut up! ”

The majesty of the queen of the earth. Sure enough, it was not anyone in the Great Liao country who dared to disobey, and the court immediately quieted down, Yelu Wuzhi glanced at everyone, and then looked at Shu Luping's expression, stepped forward and said: "The position of commander of soldiers and horses should have been decided by the Son of Heaven. ”

Han Yanhui also said: "Exactly, the old minister also asked the Queen Mother to make a decision." ”

Xiao Miansi and the others also stepped forward and said: "The ministers also ask the Queen Mother to make a decision." ”

They all decided that it was impossible for the queen mother to hand over the military power to Yelu Cha - Yelu Shuogu had no royal foundation, and no matter how he tried it, he could only support the descendants of Yelu Abaoji's faction, and Yelu Cha was different, once he took power, the country of Liao might be moved to Yelu Anduan's faction.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Yelu Chachai also stepped forward and said: "Chachai also thinks that this matter should be decided by the Queen Mother!" ”

The generals of the northern faction such as the commander of the Northern faction said in unison: "As long as it is the decision of the Queen Mother, we will be convinced." ”

Yelu Wuzhi and others actually supported it when they saw it, and they couldn't help but worry secretly when they were strange.

Shu Luping pondered for a moment, and then said: "The candidate for the Tang Dynasty really can't be ignored, the mourning family thinks that if it is not a noble status, but it has to be trusted, it is not worthy of this great responsibility." ”

Yelu Wuzhi and Han Yanhui both thought in their hearts: "The status is noble, Shuogu and Cha Che are both, but if you want to talk about trust, it is definitely not Cha Che." Then they said together: "What the Queen Mother said is very true." ”

Shu Luping nodded and said, "The mourning family has already made a decision. Li Hu, come out. ”

In the astonished astonished of the courtiers, Yelu Lihu strode out, despised him as he passed by Yelu's house, exchanged glances with Yelu Chac, and bowed to Shulu in parallel.

Yelu Lihu has disappeared since the First World War in Mobei, and has not shown his face in front of people, but suddenly appeared at this time, and the ministers in the palace were all panicked.

Shu Luping said: "The major matter of the Tang Dynasty, whether it is handed over to Shuogu or Cha Cut, I don't think it is appropriate, it is better to let Li Hu be the commander." ”

There was an uproar when the palace ascended, and even Yelu Shuogu couldn't help but stand up and shouted, "Queen Mother! ”

Shu Luping has already said: "When the emperor can still be a director, he has already named Li Hu as the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, and now that the emperor is sick, this is always in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, and Li Hu is the best." The mourning family issued an order, and the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, Yelu Lihu, was in charge of all the armies of my Daliao, and all the generals and commanders had to obey their orders to control them, and those who violated them were beheaded! ”

The original noise in the palace suddenly turned into a silence, the title of "Generalissimo of the World's Soldiers and Horses" was indeed sealed by Yelu Deguang, but it was just a fictitious title, Yelu Deguang knew that Shu Luping favored this little son the most, and had to use this fictitious title to appease his mother, but at this time, Shu Luping put forward this title again, it was not a fictitious title, but to "realize" it into actual power!

Yelu Wuzhen and Han Yanhui looked at each other, they couldn't speak for a while, they never expected such a change, they were full of words just now, how to change their words at this time?

Yelu Shuogu shouted, "Queen Mother...... This! ……”

Cha Che had already led the generals of the northern faction to bow down, shouted long live, and said: "We are willing to serve the order of the Queen Mother, and we are willing to be ordered by the generalissimo of the world!" ”

Yelu Lihu was overjoyed, and helped Yelu Chachai with his own hands.

Seeing that the two of them had such a tacit understanding, Yelu Wuzhi and Han Yanhui suddenly realized that they had finally found the answer to the various "abnormalities" of the Northern Sect during this time!

Yelu Shuogu shouted: "Queen Mother, don't do this! ”

Shu Luping's face was cold, and Yelu Li Hu glanced at him and said, "Shuogu, you are bold!" The queen mother has just said that those who violate the order will be beheaded! Do you want to be my first ghost sacrifice flag? ”

Yelu Shuogu's heart sank, knowing that Yelu Lihu had always been brutal, and he said that if he wanted to kill someone, he might really dare to kill!

Shu Luping held back his anger and said in a calm tone: "Shuogu, let Li Hu be the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, and you and Cha Che will be his right-hand men, this is the best arrangement, if you even oppose this, can it be said that the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses can only be done by you Yelu Shuogu?" ”

The queen of the earth is majestic and majestic, and this is also justified, and Yelu Shuogu does not dare to confront it head-on.

Seeing that Yelu Shuogu was suppressed, there was still a person who couldn't help but jump out and shouted: "Everyone can be the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, but Li Hu can't!" ”
