A few more days passed in a blink of an eye.

On this day, Guiguzi was telling the story of the lecture on the lecture stage, but Sun Bin was the only one who listened.

Pang Juan, Wei Liao, and Mao Meng were not very interested in the art of sternness and erectility.

Bai Gui learned about governing the country and business techniques, and had a little involvement in the art of linguistic and horizontal skills, but he had already learned it.

So, this time, Sun Bin was the only one who started the class.

"The art of linguistics is the mystery of language. It is committed to using wisdom to convince others, not to advocate death or strong advice. If you want to convince the monarch, the best way is not to go straight, but to grasp the monarch's preferences and make suggestions according to the monarch's emotions, and then you can convince the monarch and achieve your goal."

Sun Bin nodded after hearing this: "The teacher said so much. My disciple heard that Yan Zi, the famous prime minister of Qi Jinggong, was a master of this. He never offends the right advice, but is good at using opposite metaphors and metaphors to advise, and the effect is excellent."

Guigu laughed and said, "It seems that Boling highly respects Yan Zi. There is a volume of "Yan Zi Admonishing Duke Jing" in the 'Cat of the Book of Changes'. You can study it carefully, understand the mystery, and understand this lesson thoroughly."

"Yes, teacher."

"Okay, this lesson is over, you can go by yourself." Guiguzi waved his hand, turned around and floated back to the cave.

get out of class is over, where are you going?

Sun Bin stood up and scratched his head. It was still early to eat at this time, so he didn't have to worry about going to "Yan Zi Admonished Duke Jing".

Why not go and see what the senior brothers and the others do?

Sun Bin made up his mind and went straight to the "Martial Arts and Sports Platform". He heard early in the morning that Wei Liao and Pang Juan were going there.

Soon, the martial arts stage arrived.

Sun Bin looked around and saw that Wei Liao and Pang Juan were indeed on the stage, and they were discussing something enthusiastically.

"Two senior brothers, what are you busy with?" Sun Bin smiled and stepped forward.

Wei Liao looked up and said, "Junior brother is here just in time. Junior brother Pang and I are studying your bamboo gun array."

"Oh." Sun Bin stepped forward curiously, and saw hundreds of thumb-sized soldiers in front of them, each arranged in a row, which was indeed the Macedonian square formation.

"What did the two senior brothers have developed?" Sun Bin said with a smile.

"I have gained something a little," Wei Liao said anxiously: "It just so happens that the master of junior brother is here, so why not comment on it?"

"Yeah. Yeah." Pang Juan also smiled and nodded, looking very urgent.

"Okay." Sun Bin agreed with a smile.

"That's right. Although this bamboo gun array is sharp, it is not complete. My junior brother also said that it needs two wings."

"That's right." Sun Bin nodded.

"But I have different views on these two wings and Junior Pang. Both wings of Junior Pang use heavy infantry like Wei Wuzhu, but I suggest one heavy and one light."

"Oh, how did those two senior brothers think about it?" Sun Bin also found it interesting.

As soon as he started his military studies, Pang Juan became so energetic that he was lingering: "Junior brother, this is what I think. The bamboo gun formation is invincible. It is difficult to have a chance of winning when fighting against it head-on, but it is inconvenient to mobility and is shorter than melee combat. Therefore, if you want to break through the bamboo gun formation, the best way is to attack head-on and detour on the flank. As long as you break through the flank of the bamboo gun formation and fight against it in close combat, the bamboo gun formation will be broken."

"Yeah. Yeah." Wei Liao nodded repeatedly and agreed: "I agree with Junior Brother Pang."

Sun Bin was surprised: There is indeed no shortage of discerning people in this world. One is a famous general of the Wei Kingdom in the future, and the other is a military scholar in the future. His eyesight is first-class, and he can see through the weaknesses of the Macedonian square formation at a glance.

"In order to avoid this situation, the combat power of the two wings must be strong enough, so I chose heavy infantry like Wei Wuzu." Pang Juan continued confidently.

"The heavy infantry may be slightly inferior to the bamboo gun formation in terms of attack power, but it is also very sharp. In defense, it is even more solid and far from comparable to the bamboo gun formation. Therefore, if the heavy infantry and bamboo gun formation are used to cooperate, the safety of the two wings of the bamboo gun formation will be guaranteed, and its invincible attack advantage can be fully utilized."

"Senior brother is right." Sun Bin nodded.

Before the advantage of cavalry was discovered by the world, Pang Juan's deployment of troops was still very sharp.

"I have different opinions." Wei Liao objected: "The bamboo gun formation is invincible in attack, but it must maintain its formation, so it is inconvenient to mobility. Although heavy infantry can better protect the two wings of the bamboo gun formation, it has a huge load and is also difficult to mobility."

"This leads to a problem: maybe you can defeat the enemy, but you cannot carry out effective pursuits and cannot expand the results of the battle: or, if the enemy avoids fighting, you will have no choice because you can't catch up."

"In this way, this will lose the dominance of the war and it is difficult to transform the advantage into the victory. Wouldn't it be passive? And the two wings are heavy and light, which can solve the problem of insufficient mobility. When pursuing, light troops are the dominant force, which can expand the results of the battle: if the enemy avoids fighting, light troops can also be used to entangle the enemy and wait for the support of the main force."

"Senior brother, this is a bad word." Pang Juan said unconvincedly: "You have one heavy and one light, which certainly solves the problem of insufficient mobility, but what about defense? If the enemy is the main attack on your light army, can you guarantee to hold on? If you can't hold on, you will definitely lose the entire battle."

Wei Liao was not convinced and said: "As long as the dispatch is reasonable, the light troops can hold on for a certain period of time, the bamboo gun array and heavy infantry can defeat the enemy's main force in time, there will be no problem."

"Senior Brother, are you gambling, what if you lose the bet?" Pang Juan retorted.

Seeing that Pang Juan and Wei Liao were arguing again, Sun Bin couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed and quickly advised him: "Okay, okay, don't argue. In fact, the two senior brothers said something justified, but Senior Brother Pang was more steady and Senior Brother Wei was more flexible. This is a question of personal military style, not a question of right or wrong."

Wei Liao and Pang Juan looked at each other and smiled embarrassedly.

"Actually, I personally think that if one wing still uses heavy infantry and the other wing uses chariot soldiers, would the effect be better?" Sun Bin said.

Che Bing!?Pang Juan and Wei Liao were stunned.

In history, the chariots were once the leader with their strong mobility and impact.

Even if a country has a number of chariots, it directly symbolizes the strength of the country.

Therefore, there are such statements as "the country of thousands of chariots" and "the country of thousands of chariots" in history.

However, flowers are not red for a hundred days, and people are not blessed for a thousand days.

Since the Warring States Period, the chariot soldiers have gradually withdrawn from the stage of history due to huge costs, difficulty in training and strict requirements on the battlefield terrain.

The rapid development of bows and crossbows has also accelerated this trend.

After all, the chariot has huge targets and is not as flexible as the cavalry, and it is very easy to suffer heavy casualties under bows and crossbows.

Nowadays, the number of vehicles equipped by various countries is very small.

For example, the Wei Kingdom, as a superpower in the world, only retained 600 chariots. Not only was the size very limited, but it rarely went to the battlefield. It existed more as a guard of honor and a guard of generals and personal guards.

So, for a moment, Pang Juan and Wei Liao even forgot that there was the "Chief Soldier".
