Chapter 62: The Art of War

It doesn't matter that Xiao Lianshan will not question what Li Zhao and Qing Yang said, even Gu Xiaoxiao is convinced of this, if the words on the stone tablet are really Tang Taizong's art of war, then the matter is much simpler, Gu Xiao's novel The art of war has been passed down in the world, and you only need to find the book of war to study the content on it There will be success.

Xiao Lianshan should also mean this, but I always think that things are not so simple, at least now in the eyes of Li Zhao and Qing Yang, there are still unfinished words.

"The Book of War has a history of hundreds of years, and although it has been circulated in later generations, it can be mostly revised and changed, and the text on it is afraid that it is not the original original."

I said worriedly, frowning.

"What's more, there is a gap of several hundred years between Tang and Genghis Khan, and I still say that even if the content on the stele is the art of war of Tang Taizong, only those who have really seen the text of the stele know the details and completeness of the art of war."

Xiao Lianshan was stunned for a moment, probably agreeing with my doubts, the joy on his face gradually retracted, and he looked helplessly at Li Zhao and Qingyang opposite.

"What Rong Yan said is really right, Tang Taizong's Art of War has been revised and corrected in the past dynasties, and it is no longer the original content now."

Qing Yang said, "So, the art of war on the stone tablet is engraved according to the original text of that military book?" ”

Xiao Lianshan asked eagerly.

Li Zhao nodded with a smile and without saying a word.

"No...... That's not right. ”

I rubbed my forehead and said hesitantly.

"The stele was erected on the steppe, why did Genghis Khan inscribe on it a war art that he did not write himself?"

"Yes, I think so too, and there is another point, since Genghis Khan relied on this art of war to conquer the world, it means that this art of war is quite suitable for actual combat, isn't he worried that the opponent can also figure out and study this art of war?"

Gu Xiaoxiao also said suspiciously.

"Hahaha."

Li Zhao put down the teacup in his hand and smiled, and shook his head lightly at Xiao Lianshan.

"Lianshan, you have a generous temperament and think about everything as a tendon, you can think of such a simple question with a pair of children, but you can't understand it."

“……”

Xiao Lianshan was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and replied with a wry smile.

"How can I forget this stubble, Genghis Khan will not make the enemy's art of war public no matter what."

"Aunt Li, didn't you say before that you had seen the words on the stone tablet, and what was recorded was indeed the art of war?"

Gu Xiaoxiao asked in surprise.

"I only said that what was recorded was the art of war, but I never said that what was written was the original text of the art of war."

Li Zhao replied calmly.

"Don't sell it, I'm stupid, it's not that you don't know, my brother was thinking about these things before, and you don't expect me to be able to see through when he's gone."

Xiao Lianshan scratched his head and smiled.

"What the hell is the text on the stele?"

Li Zhao should have been amused by Xiao Lianshan's words, and Qingyang next to him made her tea and said respectfully.

"Look at Lianshan, you should tell him the truth, where can he do it in his heart."

"Genghis Khan combined the art of war with Taizong of the Tang Dynasty and then summed up a book of his own art of war based on actual combat and his own experience, and the text engraved on the stone tablet records this art of war, but the text does not mention the content of the art of war, but only records the writing process of this art of war."

Li Zhao replied nonchalantly.

"That's right, the real meaning of the stele left by Genghis Khan may not be the words on the stele, but the art of war that implies his own."

I nodded in realization.

"It is highly likely that he left the secret of Genghis Khan's Mausoleum in that art of war."

"Genghis Khan's Art of War ......"

Gu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and looked at me in surprise.

"Brother, I really don't think I've heard of Genghis Khan's art of war in the world?"

"You two are well-informed, and I haven't heard of Genghis Khan's military book, I don't know if you two have heard of it?"

Xiao Lianshan looked at Li Zhao and Qing Yang and asked sincerely.

"The Book of War has long been lost, and of course it has not been passed down to the world."

Li Zhao replied calmly.

…… After going around and returning to the same place, we finally understood the content of the text on the stele, but the real allusion to Genghis Khan's military book has been lost, which means that the clues to find Genghis Khan's tomb have been completely interrupted, and without this military book, the things we currently have in our hands are useless.

Xiao Lianshan just had a trace of disappointment on his face, and suddenly looked at Li Zhao and Qing Yang, and slowly put a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The loss of the book of war is nothing more than a long time, but this is nothing to the two of them, seeing that Aunt Li and Aunt Li are calm and relaxed, it is ......"

"Come with me and take you somewhere."

Li Zhao stood up with a smile and said with a light smile, Qing Yang followed behind and said to us, The curvature of the corners of Xiao Lianshan's mouth became long, it seemed that there was nothing that could not be found here, and Gu Xiaoxiao and I followed behind blankly.

Walking into a courtyard deep in the north of the Agarwood Pavilion, there were obviously many more people here than outside, but at a glance, you could see that these people walking back and forth in the courtyard were all trained guards, all of them preoccupied with the vigilance of any slight changes in the face of a great enemy.

There is only one room in the courtyard, we found from entering the north of the Agarwood Pavilion, any room here is not locked, think about it and feel normal, there are only a handful of people who can come here, there is no need for a door lock at all, not to mention in this antique and original Agarwood Pavilion North, a few more door locks but the scenery is ruined.

Presumably, this room is usually impossible for anyone to enter except Li Zhao and Qing Yang.

The furnishings in the room were extremely ordinary, and even a little shabby compared to the magnificence outside, Qing Yang closed the door casually, walked to the bookshelf and twisted a mechanism, the floor of the house was actually separated from the left and right, revealing a few steps leading to the dark underground.

Li Zhao and Qing Yang walked in front, and when they reached the secret room underground, when Qing Yang turned on the electric light, I instantly stood stiffly in the basement, looking around the room in amazement.

This spacious basement is simply the epitome of the entire Agarwood Pavilion North, completely retaining the architectural style of the Tang Dynasty, the furnishings inside are solemn and generous, neat but not rigid, gorgeous but not delicate, stretched but not ostentatious, simple but full of vitality.

What shocked me even more was that any of the things placed in this underground room would be rare and unique if they were taken out, and even the Tang Dynasty treasures placed in the museum would be overshadowed by the things here.

Xiao Lianshan loves the utensils of the Qin Dynasty, his study is full of all kinds of Qin Dynasty cultural relics, and all the things in this room seem to be related to the Tang Dynasty, for cultural relics I have been influenced by Xiao Lianshan and Gu Anqi since I was a child, although I am not proficient in hearing and seeing, but I also understand some, Gu Xiaoxiao is far more than I am in this regard, she whispered in my ear, it seems that this Li Zhao and Qingyang have a soft spot for Tang Dynasty cultural relics.

In the middle of the room is a set of chess sets, made of rosewood wood, box-shaped chessboard lines inlaid by dental Seiko, on the board of nineteen embedded with seventeen stars, chessbox like a drawer is tortoise-shaped, the chess pieces are painted in the shape of a bird, well-made.

The lower right corner of the chess set can vaguely see a flattering word, I was surprised, Tang Gaozong Li Zhi had given Wu Zetian a set of chess sets, Wu Zetian cherished it, in addition to playing against Li Zhi to take out this chess set, this set of chess sets in front of me turned out to be the two emperors of the Tang Dynasty game things, and the preservation is so complete and I am dumbfounded.

Hanging on the wall is a pipa, although it is similar to the pipa I see now, but I walked over to look at it, I couldn't laugh, this is red sandalwood because of the solid wood, fine texture, was selected by the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty as the best material for making pipa, and this luodian red sandalwood five-string pipa is clearly a thing of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also the only well-preserved Tang Dynasty five-string pipa in the world, which is enough to be called a national treasure.

"Aunt Qing, every item in your room is priceless, and they are all rare and unique items, I have opened my eyes today, it is an incredible thing in itself that so many masterpieces are gathered in one room."

Gu Xiaoxiao said with feelings.

"This girl's mouth is as sweet as drinking honey."

Li Zhao smiled lightly and looked back at Xiao Lianshan.

"I'm afraid these things are difficult to get into your eyes, the treasures in the Ming Fourteenth Tombs are piled up and all belong to you alone, and I'm afraid that the things here are difficult to compare with you."

"Those things are just money in my hands, but Aunt Li's house full of utensils and objects are exquisite and meaningful, and they can't be comprehended by Lianshan."

Xiao Lianshan returned with a smile.

"Shibei has been impressed for three days, and your mouth is now very slippery."

Li Zhao smiled and was in high spirits.

Qing Yang took out a wooden box from the side, put it on the table in front of us and opened it, inside was something wrapped by Huang Juan, Qing Yang slowly opened the package, and the package was a book.

Genghis Khan's Art of War in its entirety.

"This is the only one-of-a-kind book, I vaguely guessed that it alluded to this military book when I looked at the stone tablet, so I did everything possible to collect a copy, but I didn't expect it to be useful."

Li Zhao handed over the military book to Xiao Lianshan.

Xiao Lianshan carefully put it away, and suddenly the pleasant surface on Li Zhao's face slowly became severe, and he said to Xiao Lianshan majestically.

"If the clue to Genghis Khan's Mausoleum is really in this war book, it is that the creation of chance is destined to be opened by you, but the thing inside is very important, you must cherish it all the way, and you must not let that thing fall into the hands of that group of remnants."

Xiao Lianshan put away the military book, nodded calmly, and said righteously.

"Aunt Li and Aunt Qing put it down, Lian Shan still breathed a sigh of relief, and they would never let that thing fall into the hands of others."
