Wei Qing Fenghou Chapter 13 Dongfang Shuo and Wei Qing

Liu Che was a guest at the imperial sister Pingyang Princess Liu Mi again, and the gentle and beautiful Wei Zifu was deeply attracted to Liu Che, but he didn't make any moves. At the banquet, Wei Zifu, who danced movingly and was fluttering, inserted into Liu Che's heart. asked Princess Pingyang, "Who is this girl?" “。

Princess Pingyang looked at Liu Che's expression, and replied with a plan in her heart, "Her name is Wei Zifu, a slave dancer from a humble background." “

After Liu Che whispered a few words in the princess's ear, Princess Pingyang took Wei Zifu to the side room, and Emperor Liu Che also followed. Liu Mi pulled the door and walked to the main hall, leaving two people, omitting a thousand words here, and readers can brainstorm on their own.

After that, Wei Zifu and Wei Qing were brought into the palace, and the elder sister was pampered for two years, and she was pregnant and named Mrs.; aroused the jealousy of Empress Chen. His mother, Princess Guantao, sent someone to arrest Wei Qing, who was on an errand in Jianzhang Palace, with the intention of killing. When colleague Gongsun Ao heard the news, he led people to rescue Wei Qing. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty learned of this, he was furious and immediately appointed Wei Qing as the supervisor of Jianzhang and the servant, Wei Zifu as his wife, and Wei Changjun as the servant. For several days, Wei Qing was rewarded continuously, as much as a thousand gold. Wei Ru married the servant Gongsun He, and Wei Shao'er remarried Chen Shichen Zhang, Chen Ping's descendant, and Gongsun Ao became more noble. Wei Qinghou was appointed as a doctor in Taizhong, and he served as a captain of the Yulin Military Academy, and was in charge of the training of the new army, the Yulin Army, together with Gongsun Ao.

Wei Qing can be regarded as a steady progress, and then dutifully trained the new army, coupled with Wei Qing's own unique training methods, soon the combat effectiveness of this newly built Yulin Army has been greatly improved.

If you want to say where Wei Qing's ability to command the army came from, the answer is that someone taught him.

No matter how talented a general is, if there is no good master, it is useless to rely on talent alone; Let's just say that Zhao Kuo in the Warring States Period, not to mention that his talent is not high, but the result is still a laughing stock for the ages; Sun Bin, Pang Juan, Zhang Yi, and Su Qin shine in history, and they all have a great master - Guiguzi; And Wei Qing, who is a manu, naturally has a master, he is Dongfang Shuo. If you want to say what is going on, listen to me in detail.

When Dongfang Shuo went to Chang'an from Shandong to seek a way out, he used an ox cart to pull what he wrote. The simplicity of governing the country, the military law arrangement, is full of ox carts. After arriving in Chang'an, no one recommended him, and he planned to go incognito, and in order to make a living, he had to practice medicine on the streets. Fortunately, Dongfang Shuo has his own ability, he was not starved to death, and after five or six months of action, he made his name in Chang'an City, and since then Dongfang Shuo has a little relief, but this is not the ending that Dongfang Shuo wants.

During this time, Dongfang Shuo met Manu Weiqing of the Princess's Mansion, Dou Ying's brother Guan Fu, and the emperor Liu Che who went out of the palace to play (Weifu went out on patrol, Dongfang Shuo came out, but he couldn't say. ), the blind Empress Dowager Dou, Princess Liu Mi of Pingyang and others. The hexagram of their questions is also answered one by one, which is considered a start.

When discussing the Han and Xiongnu with Wei Qing, Dongfang Shuo and Wei Qing had a feeling of seeing each other late, and they saw the same feeling, Wei Qing admired Dongfang Shuo's talent very much, so they became brothers, because Dongfang Shuo was slightly older Wei Qing and became brothers. Later, Dongfang Shuo's talent deeply convinced Wei Qing, but he had become brothers with different surnames in the early stage, and whenever he had free time, Wei Qing asked Dongfang Shuo for advice.

When Dongfang Shuo was mixed up on Chang'an Street, there was also a person who was also impressed by him, that is, the famous Empress Dowager of the Dou family. At that time, Dou Yifang's eyes could not see in his later years, and his ears were not bright, and the imperial doctor was helpless, so someone recommended Dongfang Shuo to the Empress Dowager Dou and asked him to treat the Empress Dowager. After all, when he is old, his eyes are not so easy to heal, but he heals his ears and hearing, and Empress Dowager Dou has a lot of praise for him.

Dongfang Shuo, as the behind-the-scenes guest of the Empress Dowager, constantly treated the Empress Dowager Dou's eyes, and did not forget to show off her knowledge, and the Empress Dowager valued him more and more, even to the point of obeying her words.

Another person also thought that Dongfang Shuo was talented, so he asked him for advice, and this was the emperor's sister, Princess Pingyang. Dongfang Shuo was able to gain the trust of Princess Pingyang, and Wei Qing and Wei Zifu were naturally happy, and they all took the initiative to take on the task of liaison. When he met Liu Che again in Changle Palace, Dongfang Shuo didn't know how many strategies he had given to Princess Pingyang, and then submitted them to the emperor, but Emperor Liu Che didn't know who those strategies came from. The answer turned out to be the charlatans around the Empress Dowager who cheated on eating and drinking, and Liu Che didn't know until later that he wanted to say so.

When Dongfang Shuo and Wei Qing discussed the evolution of the Art of War formation, the two respected each other. During the sand table exercise, Wei Qing can always fight steadily for the battalion step by step, and the troops are unpredictable, and he can always win unexpectedly; And Dongfang Shuo also has a set of formations, strange soldiers emerge in an endless stream, the formation is ever-changing, and the various military techniques in "Sun Wu Art of War", "Sun Bin Art of War", "Wei Xuanzi" and "Gongsun Qi" are used just right, or even better.

The two faced off hundreds of times, winning and losing each other, reaching 45 to 46 and eight draws. Even if they met their opponents in chess, they cherished each other, and after they learned from each other, learned from each other's strong points, and learned from each other's experiences, the military theoretical foundation of the two men rose to various heights, and they could not be described and expressed in words.

After a long period of study and accumulation, Wei Qing's theory of the art of war has accumulated to a terrifying realm. From Manu Weiqing, who didn't know anything about the art of war and could only use opportunism to win Dongfang Shuo, he became a master of the art of war. It is inseparable from Dongfang Shuo Xinxin, who unreservedly taught Wei Qing the crystallization of the art of war of the sages of the past dynasties, including "The Art of War of Sun Wu", "Guiguzi", "Sun Bin Art of War", "Wei Xuanzi", "Gongsun Qi" and "Han Xin's Art of War", which shows that Wei Qing's learning and acceptance ability is quite strong.

Dongfang Shuo gave Wei Qing what he learned in the book of war, and his understanding of the book of war. From how to manage the army, how to fight, how to set up an ambush, how to do a good job in the relationship between soldiers and soldiers, how to break the city, how to defend the city, how to arrange the troops, and how to deploy the army; how to storm the city; what kind of situation and location are suitable for ambushing the enemy; how to attack with fire, how to hammer with water; how to lure the enemy deeper; Taught Wei Qing the method of fighting against cavalry and many other tactics.

In three years, it has made the attainments in Nu Weiqing and the military road to a higher level. There are only military books in the princess's mansion, and the few are pitiful, so Dongfang Shuo gave Wei Qing all the military books he had collected and read for many years. At the same time, it also gave Wei Qing a kind of cavalry victory, and improved the sketches of stirrups and horseshoes.

These two things are useless to the common people, but for the cavalry, it is to give the horses and knights a second life.

In the era when there were no stirrups, due to the high body of horses, unless they were very athletic, it was difficult for people to achieve them overnight, and they often needed help from others to lift them; Or stand on a stone bench and step on horseback. And without the support of stirrups, riding after getting on the horse is also very tiring and dangerous. The rider needs to clamp the horse's belly with his legs at all times, or even hold the horse's neck or mane tightly with both hands, but even so, there is a risk of losing his balance and falling off the saddle.

Because the horse's hooves are often in contact with the ground, they are prone to wear and tear, and will fall off quickly, or even be injured and disabled. So our ancestors invented the iron horse foot, people installed the horse's foot on the horse's hoof, can make the horse run farther, but also improve the horse's weight-bearing capacity, and running ability, so that the horse's characteristics in all aspects to the extreme.

Not only can it reduce the friction caused by the contact between the horse's hooves and the ground, but it also allows the horseshoe to easily grasp the ground, the horse is not easy to slip, and it can also increase the speed, and if a person sits on it, it will be more stable. That is to say, nailing a horse's hoof to a horse's hooves is equivalent to putting on a pair of shoes for the horse, which not only does not grind the feet, but also protects the horse's hooves.

Dongfang Shuo's two sketches to Wei Qing deeply impressed Wei Qing. Wei Qing has been raising horses for many years, and his understanding of horses is not weaker than anyone else's. The protective effect of the horseshoe on the horseshoe, Wei Qing saw it more clearly than anything else. The sketches depict horseshoes and stirrups, and indicate which material to use, what size, what shape, and when to replace them.
