Li Xiaogong, as the head of the Li family's lineage, his trapping camp is the trump card of the Li family's army, proficient in all kinds of hidden weapons, and can also dig the ground as a trap, so that the enemy army is unable to defend against it. This time against the Jieli cavalry, the trapping camp played a huge role, by digging a rabbit hole so that the Jieli cavalry did not dare to indulge in the wild run, endured all the hardships, reduced by half of the power, of course, this method can play the greatest advantage in the mountainous area, to the plain can be due to geographical restrictions, the role is limited.

Li Xiuning showed him Luo Yu's notes and thoughts, which showed his status in the Li family, and the other military leaders did not receive this kind of treatment. Although Luo Yu's notes are one-sided, they only summarize various military ideas in general terms, and the war examples attached to the back are very far-fetched, and in order to demonstrate the points put forward earlier, various coincidences have to be arranged to corroborate. In fact, how can there be so many coincidences in the real war process?

Even so, in this era, there is such a military guidance document, Li Xiuning is also shocked, and she can't calm down for a long time after reading it. Li Xiaogong is a military strategist, and after reading it, he cannot but admire that these military ideas will surely shine in the future.

As the source of military thought, "The Art of War" has been baptized for nearly a thousand years and is regarded as the holy book of soldiers, but the core of "The Art of War" is to challenge the rules and win by surprise. This shows that from a macro point of view, we need to compare, analyze, and study the political, military, and troop strength conditions under which the enemy and us will decide the outcome before sending troops, estimate the development process of the war and the possibility of victory or defeat, and then draw up a battle plan.

And these things written by Luo Yu, although there is a shadow of "The Art of War" in it, but it also finds another way, talking about the role of weapons, taking people as the point and weapons as the line, forming a three-dimensional front, delegating power to the team leader and the commander of each team, so that they can command flexibly according to the changes in the battlefield, so that even if the master is captured or sacrificed, he can still effectively organize the battle. And the commander of an army, in his words, is "in the midst of strategizing, decisive victory thousands of miles away", this kind of person is not unprecedented, Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han, is the representative, but for thousands of years, there has only been one such figure, and in the end he died of exhaustion in the army.

Some views are very dangerous, in the imperial era, although there is a saying that "the general is outside, the monarch's order is not subject to it", but it is not possible to disobey the order all the time, and it will never end well if the emperor is angry.

Luo Yu concluded later: The fighter is the last extension of the country's action, and victory or defeat is related to the foundation of the country, so the purpose of victory is to destroy the enemy's living force, and the rest can be discarded. Once the strategy is determined, everything serves to achieve the strategic goals.

Li Xiaogong didn't know that this was Luo Yu's military condensation thought for thousands of years in his time and space, and if this kind of thought was now regarded as a guiding ideology, he didn't know how many people's heads would be cut off by the Sui court.

Luo Yu doesn't care about this, he just writes this point of view and lets Li Xiuning see that she will be measured, as for whether she can practice in the war in the future, it is not for him to be the master, unless he also becomes the commander of an army or raises troops to compete with the heroes of the late Sui Dynasty.

Li Xiuning's tent was lit up overnight, and no one knew what she and Li Xiaogong were talking about inside. After getting up early in the morning, Luo Yu found that the snow had finally stopped, but the north wind did not stop, and it became more and more intense, blowing the pieces that did not have time to freeze everywhere, and it was white for a while.

The procession set out again, the tents were put away, loaded into wagons, and unhurriedly headed north. No one came to disturb Luo Yu, the breakfast was a yellow cancan's nest head and a bowl of egg drop soup, Shan'er sent it over and left immediately, without bothering to say a word.

Luo Yu couldn't help but wonder, this kid usually likes to chat with himself, what's wrong today? Could it be that Li Xiuning wants to alienate himself? However, don't worry, if that's the case, you have to leave no master here.

According to the development process of Luo Yu's time and space, Yang Guang was about to conquer Liaodong in the seventh year of the Great Cause, and more than two million soldiers and civilians were defeated in Liaodong City, and the following year they sent troops to Liaodong, which was rebelled and destroyed by Yang Xuangan.

After three expeditions to Liaodong, the Great Sui Empire suffered a great loss of vitality, and in the seventh year of the great cause, Wang Bo revolted in Shandong with a song "Song of Death of the Waves of Liaodong without Direction", which opened the prelude to the uprising of the 36th Road against the King and the 72nd Road Smoke and Dust, and also sounded the death knell of the Sui Dynasty.

Luo Yu has always been sympathetic to Yang Guang, he is a great emperor and a great strategist, but unfortunately, his impatient character killed him, and finally pointed to his head: good head, who should be beheaded and the country will be destroyed. All his exploits during his reign made Li Tang pick up a big bargain.

What will Yang Guang do in this time and space? Luo Yu didn't know, but he heard that at this time, he was already preparing for war, stepping up the production of winter clothes, and the grain and grass had arrived in Zhuo County, all of which proved that Yang Guang in this time and space was also preparing for the eastward expedition and going to the end of his due destiny.

Li Xiuning finally came to find Luo Yu, came in person, got into the carriage and knelt in front of Luo Yu, and said with a smile: "I'm so interested in joining the army, I've read this "Classic of Mountains and Seas" a few times!" ”

Luo Yu said embarrassedly: "General, I can't hide it, except for "The Art of War", I haven't read any of your books here......

This is the truth, even before, Luo Yu has not read the original version of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", and he has learned a little bit of information sporadically, as for the original version of "Zuo Chuan" and "Hanshu", he has not read the original version of "Three Kingdoms", and he has read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" several times.

Li Xiuning was surprised: "Then what books do you usually read?" ”

Luo Yu smiled: "I don't know if my grandfather's collection is a unique book, I haven't seen it here in the general, such as "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names", "Thousand Character Text" and so on. ”

Li Xiuning said: "I haven't heard of these books, can I trouble joining the army to write them down silently for study?" ”

Luo Yu said: "General, these three books are called the three books of enlightenment by the grandfather under the post, if they can be promoted, it will be a great achievement for the benefit of the people!" This will be written down silently and handed over to the general. After finishing speaking, he immediately spread out the paper, picked up the brush and was waiting to study the ink, and Li Xiuning started to study the ink.

Luo Yu arched his hand, and began to write the "Three Character Classic" silently from memory, of course, Luo Yu, a character who should not appear in this era, tried to erase or delete it, and it was finished after a while, although it was partially deleted, but the general idea did not change. Li Xiuning took it and looked at it, read it over and over again, and at this time, Luo Yu's second "Hundred Family Names" had been written silently. As for "Thousand Words", it's too difficult to understand, Luo Yu really can't memorize it, the first two articles are memorized by rote for the competition, but it seems that there are photos in the phone, remember to save it as a screenshot, and copy it again when you have time.

Li Xiuning copied it with her regular weight, and set off a huge wave in her heart, these two articles are easy to understand, and they are much better than the current enlightenment books, as Luo Yu said, if they can be promoted, it is really a great achievement for the benefit of the people. She saw that Luo Yuji put down the pen, was in a daze on the side, and hurriedly said, "What about another one?" ”

Luo Yu smiled bitterly: "General, the other one really can't be memorized, and if you think about it slowly after taking office, you can always remember it." ”

Li Xiuning said: "It's okay, join the army and think about it slowly, having these two articles is already a great achievement, then I won't bother you to think about the article......" Before she finished speaking, she got up and got out of the carriage and went to her carriage. Luo Yu looked at her distant back and shook her head, how did this prosperous girl's family become a general? The rest is not in a hurry, then "Thousand Words" should not be written immediately, it is too shocking.

The team has been moving forward, Luo Yu has been tortured by sorghum rice for several days, he doesn't eat and has nothing else to wrap his stomach, in order to no longer eat this poor sorghum rice, he collected the nest head that can't finish breakfast, and when he is hungry, he breaks off a piece and roasts it on the fire to relieve the pain of hunger, all the sorghum rice is given to Shan'er, a little glutton, and Shan'er keeps it secret for him, don't tell Li Xiuning, lest she try her best to get food for Luo Yu, so that Luo Yu can make it special.

On this day, when he came to the big river dam, the Meridian River crossed the mountain range, and the not wide river surface froze, and Li Xiuningan refused to wait to go to probe the thickness of the ice to see if the carriage could pass safely. The team stopped, Luo Yu got out of the carriage, was blown by the cold wind, shivered, stayed in the warm carriage for a long time, and was not used to the cold wind, which Luo Yu admired the dozen or so military leaders, they have been riding on horseback since departure, if Li Xiuning does not want to write, she will also accompany her.

I gritted my teeth and persisted for ten seconds, and gradually got used to the temperature outside, and it didn't start to be so cold. Luo Yu called Shangshan'er, stepped on the slippery frozen road, and came to the hot spring.

This is a hot spring pool of ten square sizes, there is no ice and snow cover around more than ten meters, Luo Yu reached out and touched the temperature of the water, it is not hot, it is only thirty or forty degrees. The sky was gray, and a heavy snow was brewing again.

Let Shan'er call Li Xiuning and say to her: "General, it's getting late, my subordinates suggest that we camp here today, most of the sergeants are frostbitten, it is better to expand this geothermal pool here, let everyone bubble, in order to relieve the pain of the long march." ”

Li Xiuning frowned and said: "The scout just came with the news, the Meridian River is very fast on weekdays, and now it is freezing for a short time, the carriage may not be able to pass, it is good to camp here, there should be a heavy snow tonight, I hope we can pass smoothly tomorrow." ”

She turned around and ordered the camp, Li Xiaogong asked the sergeant of the trapping camp to dig a big pit of 100 square meters and three feet deep, and then bring in the hot spring water, and after the water level of the original pool dropped, a general of the water distribution camp jumped into the water with a shovel, and after a while, it bubbled, and the water of the spring increased at a visible rate.

The soldiers of the trapping camp dug a drainage ditch and led the water to the low-lying land next to it, so as not to let the hot water flow directly to the Meridian River and affect the freezing of the river.

Each battalion soaked in the hot springs in batches under the leadership of the army leader, and the sound of inhalation came and went for a while, which should be too comfortable. As soon as Luo Yu wanted to go down and taste the taste, he was told that Li Xiuning was waiting for him in the big tent of the Chinese army, and he didn't dare to stay slow, so he came to the big tent of the Chinese army quickly.

Li Xiuning was not the only one in the tent, Li Xiaogong was also there, his face was very bad, and there was a white-faced brocade man in his thirties sitting opposite, it seemed that he should be a eunuch in the palace.

After Luo Yu came in, the eunuch raised his eyes and glanced at it, and immediately lowered his head to drink tea, Li Xiuning asked Luo Yu to sit down and said: "Luo joins the army, this is the palace manager in charge of purchasing, Mr. Liu, he came to our army today to do a hand, how much do you say should be given?" ”

Luo Yu was stunned, this is a soldier who went out to return to the army, a procurement manager actually came to the army openly to ask for a figure, it is really a big joke in the world, anyway, Luo Yu has never heard of this kind of thing, including his time and space.

When I came back to my senses, I was puzzled, just give him a figure, why did you call me over? With a turn in his mind, he was immediately relieved, and he arched his hand and said: "General, I haven't heard of this matter, the general let my subordinates manage the finances, and the subordinates will fulfill their duties, and you will give as much as you say!" Li Xiuning saw that Luo Yu understood, so he turned his head to the eunuch and said, "Steward Liu, let's say a number."

Steward Liu saw that Li Xiuning was so knowledgeable about advancing and retreating, and saw that Li Xiaogong next to him was almost about to run away, but he was stopped by Li Xiuning, and he was very proud in his heart: "General Li fought for the country, and he worked hard and made great achievements, I heard that the general annihilated the Jieli cavalry this time, and he must have caught a lot of good things, our family doesn't have more, and we must give a hundred taels of gold, and then our family will say a few good words in front of His Majesty, wouldn't it be good for everyone." ”

Luo Yu was playing a double reed with Li Xiuning, and after listening to Steward Liu's words, he said to Li Xiuning: "General, I have a hundred taels of gold, but this is the spare capital of my army. ”

Li Xiuning blinked his eyes and said, "Steward Liu, how do you think this can be solved?" ”

Steward Liu smiled dryly: "General, there is one thing you may not know yet, that batch of military horses ......"

Li Xiuning was deliberately scared and said: "Steward Liu, this matter cannot be explained, after arriving in Chang'an, I will explain the reason to Your Majesty, Luo joined the army, took the gold, and gave it to Steward Liu!" ”

Li Xiaogong finally couldn't help it, stood up, and was about to make a move on Steward Liu, but was retreated by Li Xiuning, and he walked out of the tent angrily. Luo Yu saw that Li Xiuning gave him a look, nodded knowingly, and hurriedly chased Li Xiaogong out of the tent, persuading him to wait and see how the general cleaned up this unscrupulous person.

went to the quartermaster Sima and received a hundred taels of gold, packed it in a tray, covered with a piece of silk, Luo Yu came to the big tent of the Chinese army, and without waiting for Li Xiuning to speak, then Steward Liu came to the tray with both hands, and his eyes flashed with greed.

Luo Yu made a mistake, making him pounce, and he looked at Luo Yu fiercely after standing still, as if he wanted to eat Luo Yu to relieve the hatred in his heart. Li Xiuning saw that Luo Yu had flashed aside, so he said to Steward Liu: "I forgot to tell you, these gold are spare assets, if they don't see it for no reason, it will not be easy to convince the public, if one day in the future they are hungry because they don't have the funds raised, what if they cause a mutiny?" ”

Steward Liu turned around: "How is the general doing?" ”

Luo Yu continued: "Without it, I hope that Steward Liu can set up a note, and when the time comes, the soldiers will have a head to say, what do you think?" After hearing this, Steward Liu was silent for a while, and said, "Our family is not very literate, how can we make a note?" ”

Luo Yu said: "This is easy to do, write it down, you just need to press a handprint." After speaking, the silk was opened, and the four irregular gold nuggets were quietly placed on the plate, as if beckoning to Steward Liu.

Li Xiu quietly watched Luo Yu play this eunuch who didn't know whether to live or die, she was already angry in her heart, and she hated to cut this yin man with a thousand knives to relieve the hatred in her heart.

Luo Yu covered the silk cloth back and said: "If Steward Liu refuses to make a note, then I don't dare to give you this gold without permission, and when the soldiers are hungry in the future, there will be a mutiny, and it will be difficult to protect my life." ”

That Steward Liu's eyes never left the gold nuggets, seeing Luo Yu cover the silk cloth, his heart swelled with infinite loss, he also knew that setting up a note is to give the handle for Li Xiuning to grasp, and if he does not set up a note, he can't get the gold, and when he is in a dilemma, Luo Yu said again: "Manager Liu, in fact, there is nothing tangled in this matter, the general wants this note is nothing more than to let the soldiers know where the money goes, you also know, we are going out to fight the army, maybe tomorrow we will meet bandits and robbers, and destroy them The hundred taels of gold will be settled, and then who cares about this hand-made money?" You are a celebrity next to Your Majesty, and we can't afford to upset you with this money, and if you say a bad word or two about us in front of Your Majesty, we will not feel good. ”

After hearing this, Steward Liu thought about it, it was not good for people to give money if they didn't give some guarantees, as for saying good things and bad things in front of His Majesty, it didn't all depend on their own mood. After thinking about it, he said: "Our family is illiterate, please use the general as a basis, and our family will press a handprint." ”

Luo Yu hurriedly wrote the note and read it to them: "His Excellency General Li Xiuning, the head of the army of the Southern Expedition Jieli, voluntarily presented a hundred taels of gold and Liu Jin in the palace to purchase it, and this is the basis. ”

After hearing this, Liu Jin nodded with satisfaction and smiled: "That's right, our family is not a person who doesn't know how to lift." After speaking, he pressed the thumb of his right hand in the red clay mark next to him, and pressed it on the note after it was stained with mud. Luo Yu didn't believe that he was illiterate, because he didn't let anyone else read the notes and pressed his handprints, which didn't look like the work of an illiterate person.

Liu Jin was about to get the plate of gold after pressing the handprint, and Li Xiuning suddenly shouted at this time: "Come on, tie up this yin man who doesn't know what to do, and I am going to use him to sacrifice the flag!" ”

As soon as the words fell, two sergeants with knives rushed in outside the tent, and they tied up Liu Jin without saying anything. Liu Jin's face was full of horror, his legs were weak, and he was dragged out of the big tent by two sergeants.

The sergeants of the battalions outside the tent had already gathered, and after soaking in the hot springs, they all looked at Liu Jin, who was constantly begging for mercy, and Li Xiuning ordered to be beheaded after leaving the tent.

The sergeant heard the conversation outside the tent, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he quickly went down, and there was a bloody light, and Liu Jin's head was already on a plate and brought over.

Li Xiaogong hurried over again, and saw that Li Xiuning was admiring Liu Jin's unobtrusive head, and hurriedly said, "General, this is going to be killed?" ”

Li Xiuning said: "Kill, if you don't kill, it's hard to solve the hatred in your heart, I'm waiting outside to fight desperately, they dare to come to find death with a bunch of moths!" ”

He turned to the beheaded soldier and said, "You are responsible for explaining what happened to the major military leaders. He looked at the direction of the hot spring, and said, "You guys have finished soaking in the hot spring, and the general is going to take a soak, Luo joins the army, what about you?" ”

Luo Yu was taken aback: "General, I will go back later, besides, I still have to deal with some things." ”

Li Xiuning smiled, didn't speak again, ordered Shan'er to take a change of clothes and enter the small tent, and Shan'er stood guard for her outside.
