The first wind and rain drifted away

In Nanyang Prefecture, it rained for a day.

Lao Lu, the governor of Xuanda, worked hard for the siege of Nanyang Mansion, but Wang Qiaonian, the Shaanxi envoy and Nanyang prefect who was surrounded by rebels, was safe.

This backbone of the Donglin Party is also a military governor.

Although he used to have the most contact with the Four Books and the Five Classics, and the empty and boring chapters, tables, documents, and memorabilia in the political arena.

However, the capable can do anything, and he still has strong confidence that he can defend Nanyang Mansion.

Confidence comes from being prepared.

In order to defend Nanyang Mansion, Governor Wang prepared a large number of military documents.

In his study, there are piles of military books and war strategies, such as "Captain's Officer", "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Guiguzi", "Taigong Yin Fu" and so on.

Among them, Wang Zhifu deeply loved "The Art of War", which was deeply dive, and explained the truth of how to fight very thoroughly, which was easy to learn.

From the beginning of the war to the present, Wang Zhifu has been unable to release the volume, and has turned the book "The Art of War" to the brim.

The rain finally stopped, which made the prefect feel better.

"The man who is the terrain is also the help of the soldiers. Expect the enemy to win, calculate the danger from far and near, and the way of the general. Those who know this and use war will win, and those who do not know this and use war will lose. ”

Wang Zhifu began to read this battle array treasure book again, and when he read the wonderful points, he couldn't help but applaud: "Dazai Siyan, Dazai Siyan, this sentence is good!"

Terrain is an auxiliary condition for fighting a war with soldiers.

Correctly judging the enemy's situation, inspecting the dangers of the terrain, and calculating the distance of the road are methods that a wise general must master, and those who understand these principles to command the battle will certainly be able to win......

Seeing the hearty place, the prefect picked up the teacup, took a sip beautifully, and said to himself:

"There are those who walk, those who gallop, those who fall, those who collapse, those who are in chaos, and those who are north...... The husband is evenly matched, with one blow to ten, and he is said to go; The pawn is strong and the officials are weak, and they are said to be chi; The officials are strong and weak, and they are trapped. ”

"Well, the combat power of Nanyang Mansion naturally cannot be compared with the two armies of Guan Ning and Tianxiong.

It is the strong officials who are weak and are said to be trapped.

According to the military book, this situation can easily lead to failure, and the generals should not ignore it.

So, what to do? ”

Wang Zhifu set his sights on "Sun Tzu, Terrain" again.

It says, "Treat the pawn as a baby, so you can go to the deep stream with it; Treat the pawn as a beloved son, so he can die with him. ”

Treat a soldier as a baby, and he may share his suffering: Treat a soldier as his own son, and he may live and die with him.

"That's a good point, the headquarters is a little harsh on the soldiers on weekdays, and the next two days may be a big battle of unprecedented scale, and the officials have to make some gestures to comfort the soldiers."

Thinking of this, Wang Qiaonian stood up abruptly and walked out.

Several clerks and officials from the disciples of the general hurriedly chased after them and asked in a messy manner: "My lord, it's very cold outside, where are you going?" ”

Wang Qiao didn't look back, and walked straight out: "Go to the camp and walk around." ”

As soon as he stepped out of the mansion, he stepped into the mud, and the muddy water spilled directly to the upper of his shoe.

The cold hairs of his vest suddenly stood up, and his heart felt as if he had been brushed by a hairy brush.

Wang Zhifu was originally a high-ranking cadre from Yanzhou Mansion in Zhejiang, and he was used to eating and drinking in fine clothes when he was a teenager.

Jinshi in the second year of the Apocalypse, the head of the Penal Department. He has served as Langzhong of the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Industry, the Shaanxi Provincial Inspector, the Nanyang Prefect, and the young man became famous.

Because of this, Wei Zhongxian, who was in power at that time, tried his best to win him over, and when he couldn't win him over, he found an excuse to send him to the prison for more than two months.

Those two months were the gray days of Wang Zhifu's life, and he never thought that there would be such a dirty place in the world.

It was from that time on, that Wang Zhifu fell into the problem of cleanliness, and he couldn't see dirty things.

Seeing the ground rotting like this outside, the bookstoreers who knew his preferences all warned at the same time: "My lord, the road is too dirty, don't go." ”

Governor Wang's expression was grim, and he said coldly: "Shut up, the big war is coming, and it is a matter of the survival of Nanyang Mansion, so you have to persuade you again, otherwise the military law will not spare you." ”

"Yes, yes......" Several generals squeezed their eyes at each other, and had no choice but to follow Wang Zhifu towards the outside.

These generals are also accustomed to living a good life in Nanyang Mansion, and they are walking in the mud with one foot and one foot shallow, and they are bitter in their hearts: "

Lord Prefect, are you confused in reading military books, and do you really take the things in the books as real?

What treats a pawn as a beloved son, so that he can die with him?

It's all bullshit!

These worthless military men are afraid of power and morality, and they only have military law and money in their eyes, what are they doing in this form?

It's better to give them some silver or put a big knife on their necks.

Also, your old man usually hides in the government office and gives orders, but now he wants to comfort the soldiers, does it work?

But the prefect Wang is the lord of the house, and what he wants to do, the big guy can only follow.

After walking in the camp for a long time, Governor Wang couldn't help but pull the soldiers to ask for warmth, looking like a kind elder.

If it were someone else, the soldier might have been moved to tears by him, kneeling on the ground, and he could not repay the deep kindness of the prefect, and he could only die on the battlefield the next day.

But the problem is that the prefect is afraid of getting dirty, and when he talks to the soldiers, he is far away, intentionally or unintentionally.

In this way, there was inevitably a sense of hypocrisy in their expressions, and the soldiers were not only not grateful to the prefect, but turned pale with shock.

The most ridiculous thing is that one soldier was wounded in the thigh and was bedridden.

After the prefect asked him how he was injured, he suddenly became interested, and forcibly endured the disgust in his heart, and even reached out to tear the gauze wrapped around the wound by others, saying that he wanted to see the injuries with his own eyes.

The soldier's wound was about to heal, but the gauze and wound were sticking together.

The prefect tore it recklessly, and the soldier screamed in pain, tears fell, and he choked up: "Master, master...... Yes! ”

Seeing that he was moved like this, the prefect was greatly excited, mobilized his emotions, and comforted with moist eyes: "Don't worry, there is this mansion, take care of your injuries, take care of your injuries." ”

Seeing that the prefect was so emotional, several soldiers muttered in the distance.

"Governor Wang's direct mother's thinking is good at playing, doing and singing, talent, talent!"

Someone sarcastically said: "When the adults used to go to the Qinhuai River to observe the people's situation in Nanjing, this method and this ability are comparable to the popular Oiran in the painting boat." ”

A few bad boys squeezed their eyebrows, wanted to laugh, and held back their back.

"However, the meaning of this kind of thing, just make an appearance, looking at the meaning of Lord Wang, it seems that he wants to go through the entire camp.

He is an old man who is acting hard, but it hurts us. ”

"Yes, this land is so rotten, we have walked all over the mud, if we continue like this, we must be exhausted to death, it is better to stay in the mansion and eat wine and roast the fire."

"No, I have to think of a way to let Governor Wang and his old man go back quickly."

"He's having a good time, how can he persuade him to leave?" Someone else sighed bitterly.

"Little brother has a way."

"Say it, say it." Everyone was already shivering with cold, and they only felt that patrolling the camp with Wang Qiaonian was a first-class drudgery in the world, and hurriedly urged the man to sacrifice that method quickly.

When the man saw that everyone was focused on himself, he didn't feel it.

This person's ancestor originally had a second-class earldom, but that was more than two hundred years ago, and the family was already in the middle.

Now that he is very down, he has finally attracted the attention of his companions, and he is a little teased, and laughs in a low voice:

"Governor Wang's interest is very high, if you want to invite his old man back to the big tent to rest and not toss, you have to sweep his interest."

Someone snorted again: "The prefect of the sweeping mansion is happy, who dares?" ”

The man said: "The day before yesterday, the general Chen Yongfu stationed in the main mansion, when he came that day, didn't you see that Wang Zhifu didn't like him horizontally and vertically?"

Let's just lure him over today and go, naturally we have to find some faults.

When the time comes, as soon as his old man's heart is broken, he will naturally no longer have the intention of comforting the soldiers. And yes, it's dirty. ”

Everyone's eyes lit up, and at the same time they exclaimed: "Your idea is really good, high, really high." ”

Wang Qiaonian has always been a strategic person and does not know much about specific affairs.

For example, how to set up the camp, and where the guest army is stationed in the camp is not well understood, or disdainfully understood.

Anyway, everything is handled by the people below.

So, he let this group of generals lead him to Chen Yongfu's camp.

Nanyang Mansion occupies such a large area, and the dry terrain of Xiangyang without water accumulation has long been occupied by the main family.

As a guest army, they were squeezed into the low-lying area east of the city.

Because the terrain of this place is too low, there is standing water everywhere, Wang Qiaonian couldn't walk a few steps in it, and the mud got into it from the upper of his shoes.

All of a sudden, the shoes were cold and wet.

Wang Qiaonian felt a sense of disgust in his heart, and suddenly had an urge to turn around and leave and return to the warm and dry mansion.

But after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth.

I finally got up and wanted to come to comfort the soldiers, how could I give up halfway?

And the war is on this day or two, for this victory, I Wang Qiaonian has been preparing for so long, I think compared to the luscious fruits of victory, what is this bitterness?

The tents had just been erected, and the tents were neat, but they were not placed.

Obviously, it was a normal alleyway, and it couldn't take a few steps, but it turned plainly, and after walking for a while, it turned in another direction.

It's like a maze, after a few steps, Wang Qiaonian became dizzy, but he was very impatient in his heart.

couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "How to tie up the village, twisted and weird, pure chaos, children's things?"

In this way, if the thieves see it, don't you think that my Ming officials and soldiers can't even set up a village, wouldn't they be contemptuous? ”

After all, Wang Qiaonian was born as a literati and has been a civil official all his life, so he attaches great importance to superficial articles.

Therefore, the old camp in his army was very neat, and the camp tent was horizontal and vertical between the camp tent, like a checkerboard grid, which was very beautiful.

As for whether it is compatible with the art of war, he is not very particular about it.
