Since then, Zhao Ping'an has been resting in the garrison of the rebel army. As a martial arts master, he came from afar to help in the war, although the rebels were all rough men, but they all respected Zhao Ping'an. A new tent was built for him to live in. Seeing Zhao Ping'an in the camp, they were also polite and polite. Zhao Ping'an had nothing to do, so he watched the daily drills of the righteous army from the sidelines, but when he saw that although the rebels were reckless, the arrangement of troops was in an orderly manner, and the military discipline was quite strict, so he secretly admired it in his heart. You must know that Ye Zongliu was born as a miner, not only has he never learned the art of war, but even his writing and ink are only rude. Just by relying on the experience of the former miners' leaders, they were able to reorganize the rebel army that was originally a rabble into what it is now, and its leadership ability is already a genius.

There was nothing to do for two days, and on the third day, Zhao Ping'an was sitting in the forest, and Xiao Liuzi hurriedly came and shouted: "Dao Chief, Brother Ye invites you to go to the Zhongjun tent with you." "Xiao Liuzi is the young man Zhao Ping'an saw when he first arrived, his parents are local fishermen in Taizhou, the Japanese are in Taizhou, the parents of the little six sons were killed by the Japanese Kou, only the little six sons escaped, lonely, and went to Ye Zongliu's righteous army, Ye Zongliu saw that although he was young and weak, he was also smart and clever, and left him in the camp to serve as a messenger.

Zhao Ping'an stood up and said with a smile: "Little Liuzi, do you know what Commander Ye asked Poor Dao to do?" Xiao Liuzi said diligently: "It was Brother Cheng who came back with his friends in his hometown, and his senior brothers and sisters came with him. Brother Ye specially invited the Taoist to go and meet. ”

Zhao Ping'an smiled slightly, and didn't answer, but went straight with Xiao Liuzi. After a while, I arrived in front of the Chinese military tent early, but I saw a group of men dressed as fishermen, about 200 people, neatly lined up in the open space in front of the tent. Although the clothes were ragged and the armament was crude, there was a heroic spirit. In the center is a scholar in white, polite and handsome; on the left is a young man, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing an open-chested short shirt with open buttons, and a face tanned and red, completely dressed as a coastal fisherman, looking simple and unpretentious; on the right is a pretty little girl, wearing a short-sleeved apricot yellow shirt, her hair combed into two forked corners, looking childish. Zhao Ping'an was secretly amused, these three people must be the number one male protagonist Tie Jingxin in the original work, as well as his junior brother Cheng Haishan and junior sister Shi Wenxi.

Speaking of this iron mirror heart, it is also a proper tragedy, originally born in a famous family, his own handsome appearance, extraordinary martial arts, knowledgeable, and a winner in life, but unfortunately he became a male partner, and completely became the background board and reference of the male protagonist Ye Chenglin. The male protagonist has the world in mind and sacrifices himself for others, and the male protagonist can only be selfish and selfish; The male protagonist is wise and foolish, humble and polite, and the male protagonist is smart and arrogant; The male protagonist is mighty and unyielding, iron-clad, and the male protagonist is groveling and low-voiced; At the end of the end, it is simply synonymous with uselessness, a collection of inferior roots. Fortunately, Liang Lao was soft-hearted, and finally arranged a retired ending, if it falls into the pen of the contemporary gods, nine times out of ten the ending is ruined and discredited, and there is no place to bury him.

But now, when the male protagonist has not yet appeared, the male supporting role is still amazing. After some introduction, Ye Zongliu arranged for Cheng Haishan and Shi Wenxu to return to Taizhou to assist the officers and soldiers in defending the city, and reorganized the group of fishermen brought by Cheng Haishan into a detachment of the rebel army, commanded by Commander Tie Jingxin. Zhao Ping'an watched coldly, and saw that Tie Jingxin was consciously superior, and his words and deeds were proud, and he couldn't help but shake his head secretly. However, although Tie Jingxin is arrogant, he is also quite self-aware. After Ye Zongliu introduced Zhao Ping'an to him, he also met Zhao Ping'an as a junior.

After Tie Jingxin arrived at the camp, he asked for orders to attack several times, but Ye Zongliu always did not allow it, Tie Jingxin was quite irritable, and complained to Zhao Ping'an in private: "Tianxuan senior, the righteous army has been trapped in the mountains for a long time, and it is very difficult to eat and wear, and they dare not attack, so they don't dare to attack, isn't it self-defeating? Besides, we are here to fight the Japanese invaders, and now we have been here for half a month, and we are still bored here, what is the point?" Zhao Ping'an said: "Commander Ye is not allowed to attack, there must be his reason." Tie Jingxin sneered: "What is the reason? I think he is afraid of the Japanese Invaders." Zhao Ping'an said indifferently: "Bend the bow to shoot the Nanshan Tiger, sharpen the sword and think about getting rid of the Beihai Jiao." Resisting the Japanese is not in vain for a while, maybe what Commander Ye is doing now is the kung fu of 'bending the bow and sharpening the sword'!" Tie Jingxin saw that Zhao Ping'an was cold, and defended Ye Zongliu, and stopped speaking at the moment, but he was not convinced in his heart, and secretly thought to himself: "I am familiar with military books, how can Ye Zongliu compare with me." But even Zhao Ping'an held a grudge.

Although Ye Zongliu did not move, he sent spies down the mountain every day to inquire about the military situation, and the spies came back on this day to report: The Japanese invaded in a big way, and the troops were divided into three routes, and now they have reached the foot of the mountain. Ye Zongliu was very calm and said: "If the enemy climbs the mountain, it will take at least half a day, let's see the enemy's situation first, and then discuss how to deal with it." "Please Tie Jingxin, Zhao Ping'an and others from the highest peak above to look at the enemy's situation. Tie Jingxin deliberately showed off his skills, and made every effort to perform light skills, and in a moment, he reached the peak, Zhao Ping'an had no intention of competing with him, but followed all the way, Ye Zongliu was also able to follow suit, and Tie and Zhao arrived almost at the same time, without seeing each other at all, Tie Jingxin secretly admired, and despised him a little.

I saw that the Japanese climbed the mountain from the east, west and north sides, the northeast two sides, the team winded like a long snake, the dust covered the sky, the beasts ran away, the west all the way, but it was very few, it seemed that there were only more than 300 people, the team was in the sky, there was a flock of birds, flying higher and higher, and disappeared in an instant. After a long time, they returned to the tabernacle to take counsel.

Tie Jingxin said loudly: "The method of using soldiers, ten will surround it, five will attack it, and the multiple will divide it, the enemy can win it, if it is less, it can escape, and if it is not, it can be avoided." This is the law of the offensive strategy chapter in the Art of War. This means that if you have a tenfold superiority, you will surround the enemy, if you have a fivefold superiority, you will attack the enemy, if you have a force that is only twice as superior, if you have a force that is equal to the enemy, you will be able to defeat him, if you are less than the enemy, you will be able to retreat, and if you are weaker than the enemy's army, you will be able to avoid a decisive battle. Sun Tzu's Art of War, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. The leader of the rebel army was puzzled when he heard this, and everyone looked at Tie Jingxin, wondering why he still had the leisure to "endorse" when the military situation was urgent? Someone whispered: "Hey, after all, he is a scholar who memorizes so well." Someone asked in a low voice, "Whose grandson is and how old is it?" Why is there nothing wrong with what the grandson said? Isn't what Lao Tzu said even more wrong? The voice was low, Tie Jingxin couldn't hear it, how sensitive Zhao Ping'an's ears and eyes were, but he took it all and almost laughed.

Tie Jingxin ignored the whispers of the crowd, and still talked loudly: "Now the total strength of the Japanese invaders is much larger than ours, if we also divide our troops to resist, it will definitely be defeated." However, the strength of the Japanese West Road is weak, and if we concentrate all our forces on his Western Road, we may be twice as many as him, and we can use the principle of Sun Tzu's Art of War to double the difference. I said that if we concentrate our strength first, we can quickly destroy the Japanese Kou's men and horses on the western route, and then take advantage of this momentum to attack his eastern route with all our might, his eastern route strength is about the same as ours, and our morale is above them, so we can defeat him with the principle of Sun Tzu's art of war, 'the enemy will win'. As soon as the east and west roads were destroyed, only the north road naturally could not make any waves. "Quoting scriptures and talking eloquently, although it is on paper, it also has a bit of a general's demeanor.
