Chapter 53: The Book of the Imperial Soldiers

In fact, there is another point, Chen Fan did not say, this point is also very critical, it can be said to be the source of Chen Fan's confidence, in ancient Chinese history, Chen Fan remembered that when the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there was also the only peasant uprising led by monks, but it was quickly extinguished, although he felt that this era was not exactly the same as in ancient China, but Chen Fan suspected that there was some kind of connection, that uprising did not last more than three months, Chen Fan believed that this time would not be, so he did not hesitate to oppose Dean Wei's point of view.

"I don't think so." Xu Zhen thought for a while and said, "Although what Fa Sheng said has some truth, it is too pessimistic. The Northern Wei Dynasty was brutal, the people were poor, and the Faqing Uprising was a hundred responses, which was for the people to be peaceful; The Wei Dynasty has Rouran in the north, and I have the Liang in the south to suppress, and it is difficult to move for a while, which is the time of the day; Fucheng and Bohai County of the Northern Wei Dynasty have been lost, and if they want to send troops to attack them again, it can be said that they lack geographical advantages; As for the use of troops, the idea of Qingneng quickly captured the two places, the troops grew rapidly, and there must be no shortage of people who can fight well, and it is difficult for the Northern Wei Dynasty to win. ”

Xu Zhen's cleverness was that he did not support Dean Wei's statement that Faqing would sweep half of the Wei Kingdom, but attacked Chen Fan's assertion that he would be defeated in three months, which was relatively much easier, and this was also the result that Chen Fan wanted to see. If you want to stand out among the crowd, you must have amazing talents, accurate views on things, and throw out the idea that you will lose in three months, once Faqing really loses, you will immediately gain a large number of fans, but if you don't lose in three months, it will also leave people with the impression of boasting, which will affect your reputation in the future, which can be described as both risk and opportunity. The reason why Chen Fan dares to bet is that Chen Fan is from time travel, and he has confidence in the grasp of the future that ordinary people do not have.

Chen Fan did not intend to continue the in-depth discussion, because for the uncertain things in the future, time is the only criterion to test the success or not, today Chen Fan's goal has been achieved, and it will surely leave a deep memory on Dean Wei, and immediately said: "What Senior Brother said also has a certain truth, and look at the development of the situation in the future, Dean Wei, the student is abrupt." After speaking, Chen Fan retreated to the team. This is to leave a line for future meetings, and if you win, this move is equivalent to giving others a step down, and losing, which also means that it was just an academic battle at that time, talk about your own opinions, and do not think that you must be right.

Dean Wei was quite satisfied with Chen Fan's last attitude, but Dean Lu was quite satisfied, and said to Dean Wei at the moment: "What else does Dean Wei have to say?" If not, we'll go back first. ”

"Okay, Dean Lu seems to have accepted a good disciple." Although Dean Wei is a bit arrogant, after all, he is a teacher, and he still has a love for talents, and he may not fully agree with Chen Fan's views, but he still has a certain recognition of Chen Fan's ideas and expressions, and nodded and said at the moment.

"Hehe, Dean Wei has an overreputation." At that moment, Lu Yan nodded to Dean Wei and led everyone back to the original private room.

"Fa Sheng, have you ever studied the art of war?" After everyone sat down, Lu Yan asked.

"No, I didn't." Chen Fan didn't know if the original owner had studied it, but he hadn't seen relevant books in the room, and he didn't know it anyway, so he replied immediately.

"Okay, there is a military book for the teacher, and you can go back with me to get it later, and it will be a gift for the teacher." As the dean of Go, the art of war is naturally willing, this era will merge the art of war and chess skills into a subject, today see that Chen Fan is quite talented in the way of using soldiers, and immediately decided to pass down the collection of military books, called "Taigong Art of War". This book Lu Yan has been passed on to several disciples, all of whom he thinks are talented, of course, it is a manuscript, and it is the same for Chen Fan, so he can cultivate a few talents, of course, how much he learns depends on his personal talent.

"Thank you, Master." I didn't expect to be able to harvest a military book, which was an unexpected joy for Chen Fan, and it also showed that the performance just now was recognized by Lu Yan. Chen Fan found that this society is different from modern times, most of the books and bookstores do not sell, firstly, there is no printing technology, and secondly, the nobles of the high-ranking families control the knowledge, and they do not want to go to the people, but only use it to train their own disciples, so it is not easy to get a good book. This is actually one of the reasons why Chen Fan wanted to worship Lu Yan as a teacher and go to attend the class.

Gathering together, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, Chen Fan inevitably has to respect the master a few more cups, Chen Fan, who has a true yuan foundation, plus the skill of collecting qi, the wine power will naturally rise, drink the three rounds, everyone will be happy, and at the end of the banquet, it is natural to have a plate with the master.

"Master, how about playing a game today?"

"Okay, Master lost last time, and today I have to pull the book." Lu Yan readily agreed. Everyone next to him, Zhongkai naturally lay down again, and the other two were going to watch.

Playing chess today, Chen Fan decided that he was naturally going to lose, and he had to return the teacher's face, indicating that it was just a fluke last time, but he couldn't lose big, let alone be seen by the teacher.

Lu Yan, who won the chess, was in a good mood and said: "Fa Sheng's chess strength is getting more and more powerful, I have been figuring out these nineteen roads for the past few days, but I almost lost again, Fa Sheng's chess skills are not close to the fourth grade, but should reach the fourth grade." "Dean Lu, who won the chess, raised the level of the Fa Sheng's chess again.

"Master has an overreputation, I heard that Puming Temple has "Rotten Kepu", I wonder if Master has seen it?"

"Puming Temple has "Rotten Kepu"? I've never heard of that, are you sure? Lu Yan asked.

"Well, what Yajun said shouldn't be wrong."

"If Puming Temple has, it must be in the hands of Tan Jingtai, he is from Xiangguo Temple in Luoyang, and has more contact with the northern Gaomen, and I love to play chess, and the current chess path of Puming Temple is in its responsibility." Lu Yan guessed.

"How about we go tomorrow?" Chen Fan will go back to blasphemy the day after tomorrow, and there will be time tomorrow.

"Very good." Lu Yan agreed. In the end, everyone discussed, Dean Lu led the team, Chen Fan and Liang Xiu followed, and met in front of the gate of Puming Temple at nine o'clock in the morning, and the others did not go.

Then the crowd played a few more games of chess, and after dinner in the evening, they dispersed. Lu Xian came by car, and left with Lu Zifeng and Shi Zhongkai first, and Chen Fan was responsible for sending Liang Xiu back, and then went to Meiyuan to get the military book.

Chen Fan and Liang Xiu came out last, and in addition to Hou Feng outside, there was also a young man, Chen Fan had seen, and he was Liang Xiu's guard.

The four of them went downstairs, Hou Feng had already arranged for the vehicle to wait at the door, got into the car, and arrived at the door of Liang Xiu's house in a while.

"Brother Liang, school is about to start, I helped you prepare the four treasures of the study, and I don't know if it is suitable for use, it is my little heart." Chen Fan took out the gift he had prepared earlier and handed it to the guards standing behind Liang Xiu.

"Fa Sheng is polite, I really don't need to, I have already asked you to treat you today, how can I accept your gift again?" Previously, Chen Fan had already asked Hou Feng to pay for the meal.

"I've wanted to ask you to dinner for a long time, and I didn't have time until today, last time I was in the plum garden, thank you so much. It's just a little bit of my mind, you see how I'm preparing, don't see it. ”

"Well, thank you so much."

"You're welcome, see you tomorrow." Liang Xiu's guards accepted the gifts, and Chen Fan and Hou Feng stepped into the carriage and drove towards Lu Xian's house.

"Lang Jun, I spent three hundred texts in Cuixiang Pavilion today, including thirty texts for rewarding storytellers, this Chang Jing, the general single number is in Yichun Garden, and the double number is in Nanfeng Pavilion."

"Very good." Chen Fan found that although this Hou Feng was sometimes more upright, he was still reassuring. "Tomorrow morning, we will go to Puming Temple after breakfast, let's take a carriage, and let the coachman come to pick us up tomorrow morning." Chen Fan continued.

"Yes, Lang Jun."

The carriage arrived at the Plum Garden after a while, and the housekeeper Han who I saw last time was already waiting at the door, "Chen Langjun is here, Lord Lang has just arrived, and he ordered me to take Lang Jun to the study." ”

"Okay, there's a housekeeper for Lao Han." Turning his head, he motioned for Hou Feng to bring a gift and follow.

Steward Han led the two to the door of the study, Chen Fan thought about it, took the gift from Hou Feng's hand, and entered the study alone.

The layout of the study is relatively simple, what makes Chen Fan feel at ease is that Dean Lu put a round pottery inkstone on the bookcase, this kind of inkstone Chen Fan has seen in the study, the price is not expensive, less than 100 Wen, and Chen Fan wants to send the inkstone does not conflict, immediately said: "Master, today I thought about coming to visit Master, so I bought a small gift, please Master accept." After speaking, he put the auspicious cloud three-legged stone inkstone on Lu Yan's desk.

"Fa was born to come, why do you still bring gifts? I didn't say it last time, you are not allowed to bring gifts. Lu Yan looked at Chen Fan and said seriously.

"I know Master's personality, but I didn't dare to buy anything valuable, just a small gift, to express my heart, Master can't help but let the disciple express his heart, right? Master, don't dislike it. ”

"You! Not next time. ”

"Yes, Master."

"Come, Fa Sheng, take a look at this military book, this is "Taigong Art of War", also known as "Liutao", written by Jiang Wang, the king of Zhou Wen. There are six volumes, divided into Wen Tao, Wu Tao, Long Tao, Tiger Tao, Leopard Tao, and Dog Tao, with nearly 20,000 words. ”

Chen Fan looked at it, a thick stack of rice paper, on which were upright block letters, and he was very happy, this book of war was undoubtedly made up for his lack of the art of war, and there was the help of "inheritance", fast ten days and half a month, slow can be learned in a month, and then his chess skills may really be able to stand above the fourth grade.

"Thank you, Master." Chen Fan took the book of Taigong soldiers and said sincerely.

"You're welcome, this is what a teacher should do. Fa Sheng, you are very talented in the art of war and chess skills, but you have to remember that chess skills only involve how to use soldiers, and the real art of war, the key is how to train soldiers, to make the soldiers work together, such as arms and fingers, this is the key to leading soldiers, volume 3 "Long Tao", volume 6 "Dog Tao", which talks about how to choose generals, coaches select soldiers, command the military, you have to read more, for those who have not been in contact with the troops, it may not be easy to understand, if you don't understand, come and ask for the teacher. ”

"Yes, thank you, Master." Looking at Dean Lu, who was slightly tired, Chen Fan continued: "Then Master rest early, and we'll see you tomorrow." ”

"Okay, you can go back too, I won't keep you."

Chen Fan said goodbye and left the plum garden.
