Chapter 16 Where is your mind?

King Yan was still very affinity, he patted He Xi's shoulder and said, "What's polite." I'm sure you'll be comfortable on your way tomorrow. Immediately, he personally helped He Xi to get on the horse. Walking side by side with He Xi, pointing along the way, He Xi's riding posture, He Xi really felt a lot better.

I have to say that King Yan is very experienced.

first let He Xi take a hot bath, then personally medicated He Xi, and found someone to massage it.

He Xi suddenly felt refreshed. Even the pain in the inner thighs has been reduced a lot. At least when He Xi walks, he won't spread his legs apart, like a crab. The whole person seems to have been reborn.

In the evening, King Yan invited He Xi. King Yan opened the topic on the grounds of riding a horse and said; "People in the world say that to practice martial arts, to practice in summer, in winter, in fact, they don't know, whether to practice horseback riding or something else, raising is the first. When practicing martial arts, if you don't know the cultivation method, you won't be able to practice for long, and the whole person will be bad, not to mention strengthening your body and going into battle to kill the enemy. Short-lived and long-lived deaths are commonly used. Many cultivation methods are actually in the subtleties. You must always pay attention, you don't ride a horse on weekdays, you have no experience in this, I will send you a subordinate. There are also these gold sore medicines, when staying overnight. Let him wash your feet, apply medicine, and massage. It's going to be much better. ”

"Actually, speaking of King Kaiping, he just didn't pay attention to the cultivation method, and after the war, he sweated like a wash, suddenly removed his armor, and got the wind of removing his armor. He died young. There is a lot of knowledge in this, so you need to pay special attention to it. ”

He Xi didn't know these things before. However, when King Yan said it, He Xi didn't feel disobedient at all.

Zhu Yuanzhang's evaluation of Cao Cao to his son is also appropriate, that is, there is more than one talent, and there is not enough talent for ten thousand times. Now Zhu Di never thought that he would be on the Ninth Five-Year Plan. Therefore, he paid more attention to how to become a good general.

Looks productive.

After all, for Zhu Di's identity, the knowledge in the military book is easy to obtain. However, knowledge outside the military book is not easy to obtain. For example, these skills talked about by Zhu Di, no one has written them into the military book. But it is necessary to know for marching and fighting.

He Xi said: "Thank you for the teachings of the fourth brother, I will definitely study hard in the future." ”

Yan Wang said: "Actually, you don't need to learn more. After all, you are different from me, the road you will take in the future, going to the battlefield may be very small, at most a long distance, what I have taught you today is enough. I'm different, I've been on the horse all my life, if I go to Nanyang, I'm afraid I'll die of depression, and the king of Zhou, the king of Chu is different. Brother He, you tell the truth to the fourth brother. I don't want to go to Nanyang, do you have a way? ”

As soon as King Yan said this, He Xi's heart jumped, and he never expected that King Yan would be so single-handed.

He Xi thought about it, King Yan was looking for him for a purpose. But that's not like that.

He Xi couldn't answer directly, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, this matter is decided by His Majesty." I ------"

King Yan seemed to have drunk a few glasses of wine, pressed it on He Xi's shoulder, and said, "Brother He, don't you treat the fourth brother as your own?" ”

He Xi slandered in his heart and said secretly; "Do I treat you as my own, do you treat me as my own?" However, this is something that must never be spoken. He thought about it for a moment and said, "When the junior brother first served as the eunuch of the country, His Majesty came to talk about the things on the grassland, I don't know if the fourth brother knows?" ”

King Yan was stunned for a moment and said, "I really haven't heard of this." ”

In this era, the flow of information is very slow. He Xi was talking about things at the beginning, although there were archives in many places. But it's really hard to find if you're not a caring person. Although Yan Wang has paid attention to He Xi, he has not paid attention to every article of He Xi.

He Xi repeated the original conclusion and said: "If you want peace in the world, you must have grassland, but it is almost impossible to determine the grassland and want the county grassland." Therefore, sealing the domain is actually the best choice for the imperial court. I said it in the palace before. Just ------"

King Yan knew in his heart that many things were put in private, and everyone felt that they were true. What is said on the surface, many people think it is a disguise.

When I talked about moving the feudal domain, all the kings agreed. But there is no resistance in my heart. It's just that Zhu Yuanzhang is here, and he doesn't dare to mess around. I wanted to drag it out, but I didn't expect it, but in three or five years, three princes were sealed overseas.

This situation is also complicated in the hearts of the kings.

Yan Wang is worried that he will be sealed overseas, and there are some who hope that he can be sealed overseas. If you want to find a good place, there are also some.

Yan Wang said: "I am in Beiping, and I know a lot about things on the grassland, but the current situation, to calm the grassland, I don't know when, can I stay in Beiping all the time?" ”

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it has never given up pacifying the grassland, but even so, it has gradually become a situation of confrontation between the two sides. There are various reasons for this. King Yan understood the difficulty very well, so he didn't have much hope for a short time to calm the grassland.

If there is no He Xi, Yan Wang's idea may not be wrong. In history, he was the Emperor Yongle, who spent his whole life doing the task of clearing the desert, five Northern Expeditions. In the end, a mess is left behind.

It can be seen how difficult it is to pacify the desert.

It's just that he did not foresee the development of technology.

He Xi said: "Actually, it is difficult to clear the desert in a few years, but it is not impossible. As I said before, in fact, the current combat effectiveness of the Mongols is just like that, the problem is that it is impossible for our army to be stationed in the steppe for a long time. An army of 200,000 brought only three months' worth of grain and grass. Even if there is a follow-up supply, I'm afraid that all the men in Liaodong will go into battle together. ”

"It's easy to defeat the Mongols, it's hard to find the Mongols, it's easy to find the Mongols, but it's hard to keep the Mongols in peace for a long time."

"If you want to do this, you have to do two things. First, to keep herders alive. The second is to abolish the Mongols' riding and archery skills. ”

Yan Wang said: "It's easy to say, but it's almost impossible to do. For thousands of years on the grassland, the young and the strong and the old and weak, is it not for no reason, just this winter, I don't know how many Mongolian old people, take the initiative to walk into the heavy snow, just to let the family have more food. ”

"Not to mention, Mongolia's riding and archery skills are unparalleled in the world. Say it's waste. ”

He Xi suddenly asked, "Fourth brother, is he going to Daning this time?" ”

Yan Wang said; "Naturally, I'm going. Although the brigade was dispatched, I couldn't get any combat achievements, but I could see the demeanor of Song Guogong and learn a thing or two from it, which was enough for me to be used for life. ”

The art of war is more about teaching by word and deed, and if you don't see it with your own eyes, there are some things that you can't learn. It's just that Chang Mao has Feng Sheng's hand-to-hand teaching, but he doesn't study seriously, and Yan Wanggui is the prince, but he secretly thinks about all Feng Sheng's measures in order to make progress.

It can be seen that people are different from each other.

He Xi said: "I have a disciple, who is in Daning, called Lian Zining, you can go and see it when you get to Daning." It is up to him to solve the first point. I don't know how he's been doing in the last few years. I used to write a lot. Now there are fewer letters. You take care of it for me. ”

"And the key to solving the second problem is in Nanjing, but that's not something I can tell you. You can ask Your Majesty. ”

Regarding the issue of firearms, He Xi didn't know how Zhu Yuanzhang was going to arrange it. I don't know how far firearms have developed today. Naturally, I don't dare to talk nonsense.

King Yan smiled and said, "Your disciple is my junior. Nature will take care of. You can rest assured. I'd like to see what he's doing. As for Nanjing, there is something I can't know, which is mysterious. Okay, I'll ask my father. ”

He Xi said: "Then I will thank the fourth brother on behalf of my disciple." ”

King Yan raised his glass and said, "It's easy to say." ”

After the two finished talking about business, they drank wine for a while, and He Xi had to hurry tomorrow, so they left. He Xi went to sleep. But King Yan couldn't sleep, and thought over and over again on the bed, how to solve the two problems He Xi said.

King Yan is conceited and intelligent, but he has no clue at all.
