War is an act of violence to force the enemy to obey our will (Clausewitz).

Yun Ye knew this sentence a long time ago, and he thought it was true.

The closer they got to Li Jing, the more corpses of the Turks came in the grass, most of them wearing tattered sheepskin jackets, lying there alone or in groups, the ice and snow did not cover them, but only dressed them in a crystal cloak.

The auxiliaries of the convoy became more and more happy, as soon as they saw a new corpse, they stopped and discussed how they were killed, how much force was used with this knife, and from which angle did this spear pierce in, ah, it was a little difficult to kill this one, and the whole head burst open, was it smashed open by a hammer? It must have been done by a fierce general, this power, this quasi-head, my generation of soldiers can only look at the dust.

That day's twilight looked strange, when she saw a corpse, she stepped forward and muttered a call, and then drew a black mark on her face with charcoal, less than half a day, her little face became a black piece, there were too many corpses, Yun Ye estimated that she was painting her whole body like an African woman, and she couldn't express her sorrow.

The Turks have the custom of slashing the face of the deceased with a knife to mourn, and that day and twilight only used charcoal, which has become much more civilized, perhaps the death of these Turks did not hit her so strongly, just express it casually.

Until dinner is ready, the evening does not seem to have regained the happiness of the past, usually when dinner is ready, that day and evening will be like a puppy with the cauldron, carrying a huge rice bowl in her hand, waiting with anticipation for the cook to fill her with a large bowl of delicious food.

Not today, she hid in the darkest corner, holding her legs and crying. The fat cook brought her a large pot of rice, and poured a piece of oily sheep's tail meat on top of the sunset's favorite broth, and piled it on top. If it was the old days, she must have liked to call the fat chef brother.

Looking at the little face of the flower who was crying at the twilight, the fat cook actually sighed very vicissitudes, scolded the world of killing a thousand knives, and put the rice bowl beside the twilight and left. That day, twilight held the rice bowl and ate with a spoon, and while eating, tears flowed ......,

Yun Ye knows very well that if the Tang Dynasty wants to develop steadily, it cannot do without a safe external environment, and now the people who are killing outside are the good men of the Han family, and the Turkic people who only see death in the twilight of the day, and do not see the Han graves with white flags, those who lie in the cold graves, there are also people who are worried.

This time he came to the grassland, Yun Ye was not so much here to fight, but to witness history, in this glorious era, those galloping horses and fierce soldiers may awaken his long-lost jī love.

People can't live without emotion and without goals, and only by putting all their attention on what they want to do can they forget the pain in their minds. That day and twilight only wanted to finish destroying that pot of rice now, and Yun Ye hoped that the Tang army could move forward and be invincible.

It's ridiculous to say that in the case of equal personalities, a pot of rice and the courage of the Tang Dynasty soldiers are equivalent.

He Shao and his auxiliaries were like scavenging wolves on the grassland, they collected all the fallen war horses, only took the four legs of the war horses, and threw the rest on the barren grassland to be devoured by wild beasts.

There was a high layer of horse legs stacked on the climbing plow, all of which were sawed down by a saw, and when Yun Ye saw this scene, he really couldn't tell that the strange feeling was a little desolate, a little sad, and even a little disgusting.

You can't blame He Shao, this "set sail ☆ no injury in the starry night" is Yun Ye's own telling He Shao when he set off that the use of what can be used to the extreme is originally a common technique in later generations, a pig from pig hair to manure, any part has utilization value, can produce benefits. It's just that the wishes of the pigs have not been taken into account, if the Tang Dynasty soldiers eat people, Yun Ye thinks that He Shao will not hesitate to sawed off the legs of those dead corpses and make them into delicious sausages. …,

From then on, Yun Ye never ate He Shao's zuò sausage again, even if it was delicious.

Xu Jingzong woke up from his slumber and remained silent for two days. On the third day, he asked the old servant to invite Yun Ye over, he had something to say.

"Yunhou, I always thought that what you said in the court was a lie, and I didn't go to my heart, but it was a little funny, I felt that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were stupid people, and the words of heaven were ethereal, and someone would really go to verify it, and the result of the verification surprised me, just a peek at the fairy land, and I was subjected to a catastrophe of fire and water, and all kinds of dangers. Yetuo is such a heroic figure, he was also tossed and almost died, and now life is better than death. Yunhou, for the sake of my colleagues, tell me the truth, there are really immortals in this world? "Two serious illnesses in one winter made Xu Jingzong age a lot all of a sudden, and he overthought in the past two days, and there was a little gray hair on his sideburns.

"There are no immortals in this world, the wonder of my experience can be regarded as the only one in the world, I have not seen immortals, Yaochi is just a lake of water, Yetuo is an unlucky egg, I have nothing to do in the winter to go to Tianchi, if I go in summer, there is absolutely no such unfortunate thing. Zhou Mu

The meeting between the king and the Queen Mother of the West is just a momentary obscenity, and the witch will meet the king is just a spring dream, you haven't done this kind of dream, or have I not done it? It's just that it happened in a special person and a special place, so it became a myth. If you have a spring dream in the Three Gorges, suing others will only attract jokes, King Chu Xiang and King Zhou Mu are different, they are kings, so everyone is a little blindly obedient, and I believe that the qiē that Wang experienced in the dream is true. ”

"That's how God came? A small inadvertent move by a big man will be exaggerated to the point of being like this? Xu Jingzong was a little disappointed and a little relieved.

"I, millions of people in Datang, can you find an example of seeing immortals in a sober state? Lao Xu, if you don't want to go back to the court this time, I will ask Your Majesty to let you stay in the academy as a half. Yun Ye said his decision after weighing it.

Xu Jingzong got up from the small bed, looked at Yun Ye and said, "Yun Hou, if I remember correctly, you are extremely opposed to me staying in the academy, why are you strongly recommending me to go now?" Also serving as a half, this should be your position, Yunhou, sue me, why? ”

This kind of word-to-word conversation Dafeng Xu Jingzong has never used it since he joined the office.

"Lao Xu, what others think, I don't know, I only know my own thoughts, the academy is where my ideal is, I will never let her be hurt at all, the reason why I fancy you is your ability, now the academy is full of things, it is the time to start a business, I believe it will shine through the ages, you Xu Jingzong has the ability, ambition, and means, these are what the academy needs most now, if the academy is full of square gentlemen like Mr. Li Gang, this is not a blessing for the academy, but a disaster." Yun Ye told the truth, at this time, he did not hide anything from Xu Jingzong, and he gave everything to the bottom.

He was a little embarrassed, too, no matter who was named as a despicable villain, the expression on his face would be wonderful, and the narrower ones might greet your family behind your back, Xu Jingzong was just a little embarrassed, he could be regarded as the best among the lowly people, and this was exactly the talent that the academy urgently needed. It is up to such people to neutralize the righteous style of the academy.

"Don't think I'm scolding you, I'm also such a person, so the two of us are the same kind, have you ever heard of the Gentleman's Kingdom?"

Xu Jingzong couldn't find such an allusion when he searched for dry intestines, so he could only shake his head, he had a lot of opinions about Yun Ye's leapfrogging thinking.

"Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a country called Junzi Country, and Junzi Country was a country of etiquette and pleasure. On the city gate are written the four big characters of "only good is treasured". The lord of the kingdom has a strict commandment, if the subjects offer jewelry, in addition to burning the goods, and ask for punishment. The prime minister here is "humble and kind", approachable, and "free from the habits of his career", which makes people feel amiable and respectable. …,

The people here are humble to each other, and the "scholars, etc., whether rich or poor, behave and talk, are respectful and polite", the cultivators give way, and the walkers give way. Sellers strive for less money and sell better goods: buyers strive to pay a high price and take inferior goods, and they cannot give in to each other. ”

Xu Jingzong's eyes have mosquito coils, but in the end, he is a great yin person through the ages, and immediately ridiculed him: "Yunhou Shunzui's ability to make up allusions, my old Xu really admires it, and it is a sentence to the ancients, making it impossible to distinguish the authenticity from the false, but there is a small loophole, but the four words of good is a treasure from the sentence of "Liji University": "Chu Guo has no "sail and set sail ☆ no injury in the starry night" as a treasure, but goodness is a treasure." "The ancient gentleman's country you said, it must be after this sentence, in the Spring and Autumn Period, there are many classics of the Warring States Period, and my old Xu is also a well-educated person, why have I never heard of it? Next time you want to deceive Lao Xu, you can also learn some real talents, so that I will be deceived willingly. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, both of them burst into laughter.

"I don't want you to find fault with this allusion, but to tell you that there will be no second way for such an ideal kingdom except to perish, can you agree?" Yun Ye waited for Xu Jingzong to finish laughing and continued to ask him.

Xu Jingzong's expression was wonderful, he really didn't want to put himself in a small crowd, but he knew that his nature really couldn't be a square gentleman, so he had to acquiesce, anyway, there was a Hou Ye next to him to accompany him, this kind of self-proclaimed villain, he couldn't let the third person know if he was killed.

"That's right, this is the truth, if there is a foreign enemy in the gentleman's country, it is inevitable that it will be destroyed, and the book of soldiers begins with the words: soldiers, sophistry. If you want to win the war, you can't be a gentleman, and Song Xianggong's benevolent war also illustrates this. Xu Jingzong didn't say anything, and the examples he gave were all well-documented, unlike the examples given by Yun Ye, which could not be verified.

"On this issue, we have reached an agreement, do you still think that the academy does not need an old and sophisticated figure to be in charge?" Yun Ye looked at Xu Jingzong with a grin.

Xu Jingzong only felt that the soul was in danger, and in front of Yun Ye, he had a terrifying feeling of being naked...... PS: There are only a few monthly passes, ask for help,. ）
