When he heard the beginning, Chen Yuan didn't rush to answer, but turned over the test paper on the table, and the first thing to do was to observe the division of the test question type. Turning the first page, there are four big words written on it: "Analysis of War Cases." Chen Yuan roughly skimmed through all the content of the test questions, then shook his head and put the pen in his hand aside.

The old man in charge of the invigilator frowned, and when he saw that he was slow to put pen to paper, he couldn't help but ask: "What's the matter, the test questions are too difficult, can't you start writing?" The old man subconsciously thought that the test questions were too difficult and too obscure, which stumped Chen Yuan, after all, Chen Yuan is still a twelve-year-old child. As an invigilator, of course the old man has read the test questions, and some of the questions can't even be answered by some veterans who are mixed in the barracks, let alone a teenager who doesn't even have social experience in his opinion.

How did Chen Yuan open his mouth and said: "These battles or examples of battles, I have taken a general look, they are full of loopholes, I really can't stand it, there are too many shortcomings, it is possible to write it in an hour, and these things have no value for analysis at all." ”

"Originally, I was quite optimistic about you, hoping that you could pass the exam and enter the academy smoothly. But now it seems that you are also a little too arrogant! I have seen some of the more classic battles, and it is difficult for even veterans who have been in the army for many years to find faults, and you dare to say that these battles are full of loopholes and have no value for analysis? You give me out! I can't tolerate you in the Taoist Academy examination, you don't take the test, if it weren't for the fact that you were still a child, just because you despise the Taoist Academy examination questions and despise the examination attitude, I would be qualified to kill you! Get out! Get out! As soon as the old man heard Chen Yuan's words, he exploded in an instant, the Taoist Academy is a place to cultivate talents for a domain, with the best resources and elite teachers who are proficient in all walks of life. The test questions of the Daoist Academy exam are all proficient in this way, and it was finally decided after deliberation and discussion, it can be said that the test questions represent the level of the teachers, Chen Yuan's words are equivalent to insulting all the teachers who participated in the compilation of the test questions, as a member of the Daoist Academy, the old man is really angry.

Seeing the old man so angry, Chen Yuan was a little stunned, he didn't expect that he just said how he felt when he saw the test questions, which angered this old man who originally seemed to be kind. But no matter what, I still have to apologize quickly, this is my only chance to enter the Taoist Academy, if these words let the opportunity slip away in vain, then Chen Yuan really can't cry.

So Chen Yuan hurriedly explained, "The seniors are angry, it's the kid who said the wrong thing, and the kid admits his mistake." It's better to find a few questions on this test paper that you think are the most difficult, and even you can take questions that are not on this test paper, about the analysis of war examples, I will tell you, analyze and analyze, if I say it wrong, you will punish me as much as you want. If what I said is correct, can you please let me take the exam forward? Chen Yuan asked the old man tentatively.

"Well, I'll give you another chance, and you'll have to take it. The old man's emotions were not so excited at this time, after all, he was also from the Taoist Academy, and he was so old, not to mention the Qi cultivation kung fu at home, and he was too lazy to worry about a child. Hearing Chen Yuan say this, and thinking back to a few contacts, this child has a calm and introverted personality, not like a person who can speak wildly, maybe he will give himself a surprise, so he got off the donkey and agreed.

The old man came to Chen Yuan's table, picked up the scroll on the table, flipped to the sixth sheet, pointed to a question and said, "You analyze this question for me." Chen Yuan glanced at the question, only looked at the time of about ten breaths, and then opened his mouth and said: "This question is about the process of breaking the 3,000-step armor of Mengyue City with 800 iron horses when the main city clashed. Although this battle was a typical battle of winning more with less, and it was the first battle in the Nine Heavens Domain to discover the superiority of cavalry, there were still many shortcomings. For example, the 800 cavalry used long-handled heavy knives that were good at chopping, and this weapon was widely spread among the cavalry, because it was so powerful that it could break through almost any defense.

However, in the face of the dense formation of 3,000 men in Mengyue City at that time, I felt that such a weapon would become a constraint, and its heavier weight would limit the speed of the mount's charge, and it would be very difficult to make a slashing action in the case of a sprint. As a result, the 800 cavalry were exhausted after a single charge, and it took some time for them to launch a second charge, and the cavalry's lethality and natural restraint against the infantry were not at their maximum.

If the weapons of these 800 cavalry are replaced with spears that are lighter than long knives, not only will the speed of the charge increase, but also the second charge can be carried out immediately after breaking through the enemy formation.

After talking about the winning side, let's talk about the losing side. When the Mengshan army encountered the cavalry attack, the leading general did the most stupid thing, that is, to gather 3,000 soldiers, and the original 3,000 combat strength was less than 30, you may think that what I said is a bit exaggerated, but let's think about it carefully. Even if the cavalry formation of the Sogo Army is larger, when the eight hundred cavalry charges, the arrows are at most about a dozen people, and the Mengyue Army in the gathered formation can only exert its combat power by the outermost soldiers facing the charge, and other internal people cannot intervene, and the natural restraint of the troops leads to a fiasco for the infantry in one-on-one hours, and as long as the cavalry tears open the opening of the gathering formation, the momentum can no longer be resisted.

If the Mengyue army wants to win, it needs to turn the pieces into a whole, spread out in a team of five to ten people, and give full play to the advantage of numbers, when facing the charge, as long as you don't panic, look at the legs of the cavalry mounts to attack, after a few rounds, although there may be some damage, but at least two thousand five combat power can be saved, and the cavalry on the opposite side will all become infantry, under the same conditions, two thousand five against eight hundred, win steadily!"

Chen Yuan talked eloquently about the entire battle, and used his military knowledge to elaborate on the advantages and disadvantages of this battle, but on the whole, he was still finding faults, and even the winner of this battle with fewer victories had many flaws in his eyes. From the advantages and disadvantages of weapons, the timing of the charge, to how the infantry restrained the cavalry, how to take advantage of the terrain, etc., the old man who listened was stunned.

Sogo City and Mengyue City are both the main cities of the Youtian Domain, and every year the eight main cities in the whole region will hold a main city confrontation, with the purpose of sharpening the combat power of the main city army. But the confrontation in the main city also greatly affects the ranking of the main city, after all, the combat effectiveness of a main city's army can reflect the comprehensive strength of the main city to a certain extent. At the beginning, Sogo City relied on 800 cavalry to fight against 3,000 infantry armor, defeated Mengyue City in one fell swoop, and successfully ranked among the top three. And the general who commanded and led the 800 cavalry of Sogo was personally awarded the title of "Xiao Luan Fei General" by the city lord, and became a noble in one fell swoop.

This classic battle, in which less wins more, has been discussed and analyzed by later generations of military experts, and after years of research and analysis, so many people have discovered and improved only the methods of dealing with cavalry, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of cavalry and infantry. The influence of cavalry weapons on the charge, the restrictions on cavalry by the terrain, and so on that the young man in front of him completely exceeded everyone's analysis and understanding of this battle, and the way to deal with cavalry and the restraint of the troops were more comprehensive than the existing theories.

The old man swallowed in shock, although it was not verified, but his intuition told him that what Chen Yuan said was correct. With such a unique vision and such a keen sense of military smell, he now felt that the war examples that the young man said at that time were not worth analyzing, and he was not talking wildly. Because the question he chose was already the most difficult question on this test paper. This is because in analyzing battle examples, in addition to correctly understanding and expounding the process of the battle, it is more important to analyze the problems existing in the battle and the advantages and disadvantages of the fighting methods. This question, if he answered it himself, at most, he could only analyze the reasons for Meng Yuejun's failure and the methods for improvement. And this young man named Mu Chenyuan was able to find fault with even the victor of this battle. This can no longer be obvious with talent, this is simply a little monster.

"How's that, Senpai. Do you think I'm right?Can I continue the exam?" After analyzing this battle example, Chen Yuan saw that the old man's face was cloudy, and asked cautiously. "Ah, oh, I'll ask you a few more questions. Hearing Chen Yuan's call, the old man recovered from the shock and said.

After asking a few more questions, the old man has been completely conquered by Chen Yuan's performance, Chen Yuan's analysis of the battle situation is extremely thorough, and he can point out the advantages and disadvantages of both warring sides, and find out how to make up for the disadvantages or expand the advantages as quickly as possible. When the old man affirmed that he had the qualifications for the exam, Chen Yuan hurriedly sat down at the table and planned to start writing hard, seeing that the hourglass had already fallen halfway, and it would be too late if he didn't answer the question.

"What are you doing here?" the old man couldn't help but be stunned as he watched Chen Yuan's movements. "Answer the question, it's almost too late!" Chen Yuan didn't even raise his head, and buried his head in writing. The old man couldn't help but smile and said: "Okay, okay, you don't have to write it, I will count you as a full score in this battle case analysis! Your point of view is very unique and novel, I will send the photo crystal back to the Taoist Academy, so that the people in the military palace can also learn it." Saying that, the old man raised his hand and put away the photo crystal on the invigilation table, which was originally to prevent candidates from cheating, but he didn't expect to record such an excellent performance of Chen Yuan today.

"What?full score?Is this passed?" Chen Yuan couldn't believe it, didn't he say that the sixth test of the Xue Gong was as difficult as ascending to the sky, it didn't seem that difficult. Looking at Chen Yuan's surprised appearance, the old man wrote the words "The first exam, pass with a full score!" in the score book, and said to Chen Yuan: "You come with me." ”
