Like all people in the world, if there is no entanglement of interests, no matter how you get along, no one wants to live with you with a cold face all day long. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wen Yanbo is actually a very humorous person, and he is very frank, never concealing his shortcomings, whether you are cynical or Piri Yangqiu, he can get along with you in the fastest time.

Because of the existence of thirty artillery pieces in the army, it walked very slowly, and at the same time, because the Liao rangers were always hovering around, the progress of the army was even slower, and in the end, Yun Zheng had to release the wolf cubs of the young army to hunt freely, and the situation improved slightly, at least, I never heard of that small army being attacked by the Liao.

After the grass and trees sprouted, the ground also thawed from the frozen state, and the road was very pulped, which was a great challenge for artillery transportation.

Yun Zheng and Wen Yanbo stood on the side of the road, watching a cannon sink into the mud, and then being dragged out of the mud pit by shirtless soldiers, and the two began to smile bitterly.

"The iron wheels under the artillery are too narrow, and if they are three times wider, the situation will be much better." Yun Zheng waved his hand and beckoned Sun Jie and told him his opinion.

Wen Yanbo saw that Sun Jie had already made preparations, so he asked curiously, "What is the reason for this?" ”

Yun Zheng said with a smile: "This is going to be related to arithmetic, and the relationship between pressure and pressure is also discussed, you can't understand it, don't say it!" ”

Wen Yanbo didn't get annoyed, but nodded seriously and said: "It's the old man who is rude, arithmetic is a secret that your Yun family doesn't pass on, and the old man is really talkative." ”

Yun Zheng saw Wen Yanbo putting on such a shameless face, and couldn't help but sigh and said: "My Great Song Dynasty is a scholar with articles, and a wonderful article can be exchanged for Zhu Zigui.

And arithmetic is included in the miscellaneous science, such a discipline closely related to our life can only be included in the system, only those who can not pass the imperial examination will retreat to the second best thing to learn those miscellaneous studies, but none of the elite of the Great Song Dynasty is willing to spend their energy on these studies, can not but be said to be a great sadness. ”

Wen Yanbo frowned and said, "Arithmetic is not miscellaneous. At least in the eyes of the old man, this is not the case, as long as there are few scholars who are not familiar with arithmetic, "Zhou Ji Sutra", "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", "Island Sutra", "Zhang Qiujian Sutra", "Xiahou Yang Sutra", "Five Classics of Arithmetic", "Jigu Sutra of Arithmetic", "Fixation" These ten arithmetic texts have always been the favorite of my great Song scholars.

Even if he is an old man, as long as he has a little leisure, he doesn't dare to leave the "Five Cao Sutra". Tian Caobing, Cao Ji, Cao Cang, Cao Jincao, these five kinds of official siblings, did not dare to leave lightly for a day. Fiddling with calculations is also one of the old man's pastimes.

Shen Kuo is even more of a master of arithmetic, and Yunhou should not underestimate my great Song arithmetic. ”

"Count those useless chickens and rabbits in the same cage all day long, or count the rope into the well, and follow Han Xin's soldiers. Planning for the height of San'in is just a pastime for the scholars, and they know that this is a kind of.

The most important ones to know arithmetic are those craftsmen, those who build water conservancy, and arithmetic should be used to build cities, build bridges, build, ordnance, and vehicles and ships, rather than become the playthings of scholars.

If the craftsmen of the Great Song Dynasty can make more elaborate utensils. can make the crossbow shoot farther and more accurate, and the artillery is more powerful and accurate, so the Great Song Wannian is not an empty word.

If I could draw a more accurate map of the cartographer, we would have a clear idea of the land we are in, and we would be able to artificially transform the land we live in and demand more output from the land.

If our scholars can develop the vision of arithmetic to see the world, and use arithmetic to mark the world, then. Even God can find out who He really is! ”

Wen Yanbo looked at Yun Zheng who was angry and said in a worried voice: "Changsheng doesn't have to be so angry, there are ten unsatisfactory people in life, and you Yunhou are proficient in arithmetic." But you can't ask everyone in the world to be proficient in arithmetic, can you?

That is the ladder to learn a knowledge to be a scholar, but you have to be the Yun family, what should you do with other families? Like the old man, a nerd who only knows how to read the Bible, how should he be? ”

Yun Zheng was almost choked to death by Wen Yanbo's words, glanced at him hatefully, stepped on his big green horse and ran towards the front army. The so-called words are not speculative, and more than half a sentence is like this.

Wang Anshi's carriage came, opened the curtain and looked at Wen Yanbo and said with a smile: "Brother Kuanfu, you shouldn't have damaged the general's spirit at this time, you must know that the three armies cannot win the commander!" ”

Wen Yanbo waved his sleeves and fanned the dust that came to his face and laughed: "Today, I finally know that Yun Zheng really has no other thoughts, and just wants to take the sixteen states of Yanyun and benefit the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and then sail on the sea." ”

Wang Anshi heard the impassioned argument they had just now, and he didn't understand where Wen Yanbo got his conclusion.

Without waiting for him to ask, he listened to Wen Yanbo say leisurely: "People who can complain about their own knowledge will not care about what position of power, compared to the position of power, knowledge can make a person eternal!" ”

After listening to Wen Yanbo's explanation, Wang Anshi just arched his hand and said, "Brother Kuanfu, Gao Jian" and continued to drive forward.

At this time, he wouldn't tell Wen Yanbo that in his eyes, Yun Zheng has always been a pragmatist, and it doesn't matter to Yun Zheng for eternity, he likes to live in the moment the most!

If this little misunderstanding can narrow the gap between Wen Yanbo and Yun Zheng a little, he would rather pretend to be dumb.

The grassland in April is beautiful, the withered yellow weeds have not yet rotted, the green grass has only sprouted, the half-yellow and half-green world has become lively because of a large number of birds and birds, whether it is the Son of Heaven hiding in the grass, or the crows hovering in the sky, or the Haidongqing who patrols like a king in the highest sky, all enjoy singing in this breezy and smooth day.

In spring, it is the season of recovery of all things, and it is also the best season for birds to reproduce, Su Xun looked at a gorgeous male finch that was flattering the female finches, and said to Lang frankly with concern: "The war horses in the army are mostly war horses that have not been castrated, and now the spring is blooming, it is the time of the war horses, if the Liao people use the female horses to lure, it will definitely cause big trouble to our army, and the war horses must be strictly guarded." ”

Lang Tan looked at Su Xun strangely and said, "Where did you hear this story?" ”

Su Xun frowned and said, "Don't you know about Li Guangbi's old affairs?" ”

Lang Tan shook his head.

"In the Anshi Rebellion, Li Guangbi used this method against Shi Siming, using a large number of mares to seduce the rebels' military horses, and as a result, he won thousands of military horses in one fell swoop."

Lang Tan said in surprise: "How is this possible, in our army, the cavalry is not only one horse, a warrior has at least two or three horses, a war horse is a stallion or gelding, and most of the rest are pack horses with luggage and weapons, most of these pack horses are mares, that is to say, in our army, mares occupy more than seventy percent, how can there be a danger that the stallions are lured away by the Liao." ”

Su Xun said with a smile: "It seems that the old man is self-righteous, but it's good to be more precautionary, these days the old man is always restless, and he has never made a mistake in the whole army, so he has to think about these almost impossible things."

In the old man's opinion, in addition to using plague to isolate the grassland, the Liao people only have this extremely bad method to bring us some danger. ”

Lang Tan said with a smile: "I actually wish that the Liao people would use such a negative means as "mouth sores", you must know that once the plague is born, especially when the spring flowers are blooming, it will not stop at all until the cold winter comes.

To be honest, most of the war horses of my Great Song Dynasty are pack horses, and the only cavalry that can really fight on horses is the 30,000 people under the command of Zhao Yang.

If there is a mouth sore, the damage to the Liao State is much greater than the damage to my Great Song Dynasty, we only have horses, mules, donkeys, no cattle and sheep, once the Liao State moves this plague against cattle and sheep, there is no ten years, they will not want to come out of the shadow of the plague. ”

Su Xun looked at the clouds in the sky and said lightly: "The old man naturally knows this truth, the old man just assumes that if there is really a large-scale mouth sores on the grassland, do you say that if you don't hide the false pang, can you still migrate so many people from the Liao country, or do you dare to stay in Zhongjing and seize the fruits of our victory without hiding the false pang?" ”

Lang Tan shuddered and looked at Su Xun in horror and said, "This matter ......"

Su Xun said with a smile: "The old man just said a few words casually, but he was worried that the people of Liao would jump over the wall in a hurry, so I had to guard against it!"

"Last winter, there was an unprecedented heavy snow on the grassland, and this spring, until now there has not been a drop of rain, but the land is very wet, and the grass and trees grow extremely prosperous, which should be a good year for the Liao people, but unfortunately there is a military disaster, and no good year can withstand such a waste......

Su Xun patted Lang Tan on the shoulder and got back on the road in the carriage, when he saw Yun Zheng, Su Xun was extremely happy, and he ate an extra bowl for dinner.

The war has already begun, and since no side wants to back down, then make the war more brutal, and only then can we see the strength of a country.

Aphthous sores, Su Xun is from the Liao people's own annals to see, this terrible plague, in fact, every year is inevitable, under the vast land, there will always be a certain place will break out of the plague, the Liao people have a very skillful solution to the initial aphthous sores, that is, to kill the diseased livestock at the first time, no matter how many livestock within a radius of ten miles are slaughtered, and then the fire is clean.
