Chapter 173: One Hundred and Twenty-Eight

Professor Ning Yan looked at the boy in front of him, then pointed to the map on the wall behind him and said, "Title the marching route for the Battle of Punishment of Shang and the Kingdom on the map, starting from crossing the Yellow River. If you mark the wrong one, I will not tell you another word today."

The boy nodded, grabbed the charcoal pen and held the torch and walked to the front of the wall carefully marked the route.

Ning Yan was once Luo Yao's aide and made an indelible contribution in the war to destroy the Shang Dynasty. It was just that his ancestors committed a serious crime and the late emperor's decree would never be hired as an official. So although he was of great achievements, he did not get much what he deserved. Of course, the biggest gain was to remove slaves and become an ordinary person who could raise his chest and raise his head again.

In the battle to destroy the Shang Kingdom, Luo Yao's army was always in the forefront. The gods blocked the gods, and the Buddha blocked the Buddhas. The Shang Kingdom army, known as one million, could not stop Luo Yao's left vanguard. Many strategies were from Ning Yan's suggestion. Luo Yao highly praised him and wrote letters to ask His Majesty to grant him a title three times, but they were all rejected by the emperor. The Great Sui Dynasty praised filial piety, and the last emperor's orders were left by the emperor, so the emperor naturally could not easily overturn it.

But the emperor naturally had his way of rewarding him. The late emperor did not allow their Ning family descendants to be officials. The emperor transferred Ning Yan back from the left vanguard and sent him to the Yanwu Academy. The professors of the Yanwu Academy did not have official positions, nor had titles, but they were still respected.

Luo Yao was reluctant to let Ning Yan leave at that time, but the sage's will was hard to disobey. When he left Yongzhou, Luo Yao personally saw him off for thirty miles before saying goodbye.

When he arrived at the Martial Arts Academy, Ning Yan was always the main lecturer of military arts. His classes often came to listen to generals with high military levels. Among them, there were many powerful military officials like General Xu Xiaogong and Yu Manlou. Yu Manlou even ordered that the generals in the Left Martial Arts Academy would come to the Martial Arts Academy to listen to the Martial Arts Academy in their spare time. Of course, it was limited to Ning Yan's military arts courses.

But now, this is a private teacher who everyone has become Fang Jie. Every once in a while, he will quietly leave the Martial Arts Academy and enter the secret prison located in the Da Nei Escort Office to give lectures to a prisoner.

At the beginning, Ning Yan was very dissatisfied. In his opinion, since he was a prisoner, he naturally had the treatment he deserved, rather than the professor from the Labor and Martial Arts Academy came to give a lecture. But when he walked into the stone room, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that this special student was Fang Jie. He knew that Fang Jie was practicing in the back mountain before, but he didn't expect that this genius who met once in a hundred years in the Great Sui Dynasty became a prisoner.

After only one class, he no longer had his previous dissatisfaction. This young man who looked very embarrassed did have a good talent.

He could understand many things by just a little bit of explanation. He could even extend many incredible but insightful things based on what he said. Ning Yan liked such students who studied unconventionally. He never thought that a student could copy what his teacher taught was a good student.

"gentlemen"

Fang Jie said while marking it, "The army was divided into four routes to the southwest, one through Jiangling, one through Songzhou, one through Dongjun, and one through Lingnan... But the students felt that if the troops from Lingnan divided their troops and attacked Luokoucang, the defense line arranged by the Shang Dynasty army would be torn apart, so that the vanguard army of General Luo Yao could penetrate directly from the torn hole and threaten Yongzhou."

Ning Yan did not deny it, but said lightly: "Mark up your thoughts."

Fang Jie nodded and marked the route he thought was reasonable. After marking all of them, he turned around and said respectfully: "Sir, you have finished drawing."

"Do you know why they did not divide their troops to attack Luokoucang?"

Ning Yan stood up and walked to the front of the map and asked.

Fang Jie looked at the map and thought about it carefully, then asked tentatively: "Is there an ambush?"

Ning Yan nodded and said, "Don't think you are very smart. How many elites did you gather in the army south? The generals who led the troops have much more knowledge than you! Luokoucang is the largest granary of Shang Kingdom. One warehouse of grain is enough for a million troops to take thirty years. If you conquer Luokoucang, the Shang Kingdom's army will inevitably be in chaos... However, several generals at that time unanimously agreed not to attack Luokoucang because they saw through Shang Kingdom's tricks."

"Luokoucang is built on Xingluo Mountain, and the Qingshui passes through the foot of the mountain. This Qingshui is originally a river channel for Shang Dynasty to transport food and grass. If you have never seen the terrain of Xingluo Mountain, you naturally think that Luokoucang is not difficult to fight... Luokoucang is built on the south side of Xingluo Mountain, and the mountains on the north side are mostly cliffs. If you want to attack Luokoucang, the army must first cross the Qingshui River and go around the south side of the mountain. In this way, it will take at least half a month."

"The most important word for attacking the enemy's granaries is fast. Only by taking it down with lightning speed can you accomplish something. Fifteen days... Not to mention whether there are ambushes on the road, I just say that the journey is so long that the Shang Dynasty army has already prepared a precaution. It only needs to defend the dangerous place with five thousand troops, even if a hundred thousand troops cannot be conquered in a short day. That is the largest granary of the Shang Dynasty, so that it will not be afraid of any siege and not attack. All the troops surrounding the mountain starve to death, and the Shang Dynasty soldiers guarding the mountain are enough to eat eight meals a day to eat hundreds of years."

"The Shang Dynasty army deliberately revealed its flaws and led the army to attack Luokoucang, Xingluoshan, just to delay the army's itinerary... If the army in Lingnan was blocked by Xingluoshan, General Luo Yao's vanguard army would become an isolated army. Even if the general is good at fighting, he would be doomed if he was surrounded by hundreds of thousands of Shang Dynasty troops. It has to be said that the Shang Dynasty army originally formulated this strategy to eliminate General Luo's left vanguard."

"As long as the left vanguard is killed in one battle, the morale of the Shang Kingdom will surely be greatly improved. If this battle is fought well, the Shang people may not be unable to recover the decline."

"It's the student who is shallow."

Ning Yan said: "You must remember that it is not enough to just look at the map for generals. There is only a mountain on the map. Do you know what kind of mountain it is? The land has six forces, so you should not take it for granted how to use troops."

"Students remember."

Ning Yan nodded, looked at the map and said, "I only said it once, but you can draw the route very well, which is not bad... I have a marching record written by myself back then. If you have nothing to do, it may be beneficial."

"Thank you sir!"

Fang Jie gave a solemn gift and took the marching notes written by Ning Yan with both hands. The battle to destroy the Shang Kingdom was the latest war in the Sui Dynasty. After more than twenty years, the Sui Dynasty did not use foreign troops. It can be said that this war undoubtedly has too many things to learn from for the current Sui people.

...

...

Fang Jie's current life is tired but fulfilling. In addition to Professor Qiu Yu, the Martial Arts Academy will occasionally send other professors to guide him in his studies, such as Professor Ning Yan, and even the Mo Wanwu who indirectly killed Liu Shuang and the other three on Banyue Mountain that day. Fang Jie actually didn't have much hatred for this man. He knew that the death of Liu Shuang and others was unexpected. The Yueya Lake is the largest source of water on Banyue Mountain, and the terrain is also dangerous. There are many places to hide, and Chenya and the others are very likely to hide there.

Even though Zhihui and Chenya are not hiding there, Mo Wanwu brings Fang Jie and Zhang Kuang advanced mountains, and they are the people who attract Zhihui and Chenya.

But even so, the responsibility of all things cannot be shirked.

Fang Jie did not scold or quarrel, but just said nothing. Mo Wanwu sat in the stone chamber for half an hour before getting up and leaving, and just said one sentence before leaving.

"Human life is a debt, I can't pay it back for the time being. But please remember it for them, don't forget."

After saying this, he walked out of the iron gate, with a bleak look on his back.

Fang Jie almost always faces the devil-like training of Qiu Yu. If it were someone else, he would have been exhausted to a pool of mud. However, Fang Jie's recovery speed is much faster than that of ordinary people, and he can often recover after a nap. In Qiu Yu's words, I don't know how to make you grow up as fast as possible, but I know a stupid way.

The so-called stupid method is to constantly squeeze the potential of Tiandi. His muscle strength is far beyond ordinary people, so he will continue to develop the strength of Tiandi. Only through continuous squeeze can the Tiandidistrict be stronger. As a pure warrior, he has no way to call the transformation of Tiandi and Earth energy for his own use. If he wants to fight with a practitioner and win, the only thing he can rely on is his body.

After lying on the ground again, Qiu Yu picked up Fang Jie and threw it on the stone bed.

"I still can't see through your body."

Qiu Yu sat down on the chair and looked at Fang Jie and said seriously: "Your Qi Point has opened six more places than before you were locked up, but there is no Qi Sea. I don't know what your Qi Point is useful. In the past few days, I have found that the more intense the training, the faster your Qi Point can open. The three places were opened in the first two months, and the three places were opened in the past seven days... If you persist like this, you may not be able to open the thirty-six Qi Points in the long run."

"According to common sense, a person can open thirty-six qi holes and barely be able to practice... Let's wait and see. Maybe when your thirty-six qi holes are opened, the Qi sea will suddenly pop up."

Fang Jie lay on the stone bed and gasped and said, "Sir... don't you think this is a very irresponsible statement?"

Qiu Yu spread his hands: "I'm just giving you hope. You should be very clear. Without the Qihai, what can I do if there is a 128 Qi holes are fully opened?"

"If there is a Qihai, how about the meeting of all 128 Qi holes?"

Qiu Yu thought for a while and replied: "If such a person practices for one day, it is equivalent to others' practice for ten days. If one year of practice is perhaps even stronger than others' practice for ten years."

"Oh shit!"

Fang Jie couldn't help but curse, "It's not fair!"

"Where does this world come from so much fairness?"

Qiu Yu said calmly: "But... such people are extremely rare. I have only seen one in the Martial Arts Academy for many years."

"who?"

Fang Jie asked curiously.

"You ask so many things? No matter who it is, it has nothing to do with you. Because of such a person, you have to work harder for a waste like you. When you start, you are left behind a few streets and don't run faster and catch up with you?"

"I see……"

Fang Jie nodded: "Come again!"

The largest Taoist temple in Chang'an City

The beautiful woman sitting cross-legged on the futon slowly opened her eyes and looked at the twenty candles lined up on the table three meters away in front of her. Her eyes were very bright, as if she could speak. Her appearance was hard to describe in words. If she had to try, perhaps only the four words "flawlessness" were the most appropriate.

The Taoist robe on her body was light gray, which shows that she was not very high in the Taoist temple. But she was the fifth disciple of Zhenren Xiao, and her four senior brothers were now all the red robe masters of the Taoist sect.

Her name is Mo Ningzhi

Originally, she was just a puppet and a scapegoat. But fate is always like this and it is hard to torture. Fang Jie has never been successful since he left Fan Gu, but she has been favored by God.

How many people dream of becoming a disciple of Zhenren Xiao?

As she slowly opened her eyes, suddenly, the twenty burning candles were extinguished almost at the same time, and without seeing her move, all the candles were extinguished strangely.

Mo Ningzhi frowned slightly, and his eyes suddenly trembled.

The breath in the room suddenly became chaotic, like dozens of small but sharp knives circling continuously in the room. After a crackling sound, the twenty candles were cut off. Compared to the candles that were extinguished before, it seemed that they had broken candles.

Mo Ningzhi looked at the wall, and the air was disturbed again, and light sounds came from the wall one after another, and dozens of shallow marks appeared on the wall.

A hundred meters away from her room, in the pavilion.

Zhenren Xiao subconsciously looked at Xiang Mo Ningzhi's room, and then sighed slightly: "She is the first person among the countless disciples of my Dao Sect to have a small eyebrow. One hundred and twenty-eight qi holes are fully opened... It is indeed extraordinary."
