Han Xin gave Liu Chang a feeling that he was very similar to Empress Lu, but slightly different.
Indifference, loneliness, melancholy, or rather, this is how Liu Chang felt during the entire era. Except for his careless father and the group of silly brothers, there was always a sadness that could not go away from the faces of others.
In the palace where there is not even a hint of green, on top of the gray buildings, one cannot find any happiness at all.
The suffering caused by the war was huge, and this suffering did not get better because the war ended. The whole of China was silently licking its wounds after the war, falling for those who died in the suffering and those who are suffering.
tears.
Before Liu Bang, China had experienced more than two hundred years of war. During these two hundred years, the number of recorded soldiers killed in battle alone was close to three million. Each of them died in battle.
Behind the soldiers, there is a broken family, crying parents, wives who miss their husbands, and children who have lost their fathers.
And the disasters caused by the aftermath of the war claimed countless lives.
Numbers that may seem cold to later generations were once living beings at that time.
The war has passed, but the wealthy cultivated lands everywhere are covered with weeds. The parents sitting at the door waiting for their children are no longer here, but the able-bodied breadwinners of the family still have not returned.
Whether it is Han Xin or Empress Lu, their sorrows must have nothing to do with these, but it cannot be said that this era has not affected all living beings living in this era.
"Master, how are you going to teach me? Do you want to take me to the barracks?"
Liu Chang sat excitedly in front of Han Xin, not feeling the slightest bit uneasy or restrained.
This surprised Han Xin.
After Han Xin showed his talents, almost no one dared to be so casual with him. Liu Bang was the only one who dared to ridicule him and joke with him. A fierce man like Fan Kuai only dared to kneel down to him and did not dare to look up.
At a glance, he could see that the number one hero like Xiao He was very cautious when talking to him and did not dare to neglect him. As for Zhou Bo, Chen Ping, Jiangguan, Sui Lu, Cao Shen, Xia Houying and others, he did not pay attention at all.
Han Xin glanced at him and said, "I can't go to the military camp."
"Then how to teach?"
"To learn the art of war, it is useless to study. You have to start learning from the most basic things."
"Okay, then you can teach me!"
Liu Chang picked up the pen and the extremely precious paper. This was the first time in his history that he listened so carefully. After all, this was a course he was interested in. No matter which man he was, he always had a military dream in his heart, let alone in
In ancient times, no one could resist the temptation of leading thousands of troops to attack a city.
"Five soldiers eat 150 shi of millet per year. If you want to go on an expedition with 20,000 soldiers, and the estimated combat time is two years, how much food do you have to prepare?"
"Um???"
Liu Chang's eyes widened. Is this the art of war or mathematics?
And this is too simple.
"1.2 million stone."
Liu Chang said the answer without thinking, and there was obviously a trace of surprise on Han Xin's face. Although there are already multiplication tables in this era, and people who know mathematics can calculate it in minutes, Liu Chang, at his age, can calculate it so quickly.
, it’s still good. This is obviously different from what Han Xin thought of him as an unlearned and unskilled young master.
"not bad..."
“This is the art of war??”
"This is part of the art of war. However, your answer is wrong. You need to prepare 2 million stones."
"No way, 1.2 million is right."
"There will definitely be a waste of food during the march, accidents are guaranteed, and the war may be delayed. Therefore, at any time, the food prepared must be far greater than what is necessary for the battle."
Liu Chang suddenly realized that what he said made sense, although it was still a bit simple.
Next, the knowledge Han Xin taught was all the basics of the basics. There was no advanced tactics that Liu Chang thought could defeat Xiang Yu. Although it was just some basic knowledge, the lecturer was Han Xin after all. Han Xin was narrating the process.
He often gives examples, and the examples he gives are all from his own personal experience.
Liu Chang treated it as if he were listening to a story, and was particularly fascinated by it.
"Master, how did you defeat Xiang Yu? Tell me, Xiang Yu is such a fierce person, how did you defeat him?"
During the break, Liu Chang pestered Han Xin and insisted on telling him stories. Although Han Xin occasionally gave examples during the lecture, he was unwilling to explain it in detail himself. He seemed to be very reluctant to recall that time.
His face was full of displeasure, and he let Liu Chang behave and wallow around without saying anything.
Han Xin's personality is completely opposite to that of Liu Chang. They are incompatible with each other. Han Xin is a serious and rigid person. Because of his long experience in leading troops, he treats people with strict discipline and does not like to make noises. Liu Chang, on the other hand, has a lively temper.
, couldn't calm down for a moment, it was very noisy.
Han Xin disliked this little apprentice very, very, very much. When Liu Chang shouted around with his sword, he finally couldn't help it. With a dark face, he asked his slaves to take the guy out and asked him to come back tomorrow.
.
Liu Chang liked Han Xin very much. He felt that this melancholic uncle had an inexplicable charm and his lectures were also very interesting. He returned to the palace with great expectations.
Just after returning to the palace, and before he could brag to his mother about his performance today, Liu Chang was brought to Liu Bang.
Liu Bang was concentrating on grading something. Liu Chang stood on tiptoes and took a few peeks.
Liu Bang then put away the bamboo slips, tilted his head, and looked at Liu Chang.
"Back from Han Xin?"
"Um."
"How was your study?"
"Very good. The teacher is very happy and very satisfied with me."
"Did you read the Art of War? Or did he teach you personally?"
"The teacher taught me personally."
"Did he ask about you?"
"ah?"
"I just want to ask you how your life is in the palace, or ask you about the situation in the palace, etc."
"No."
"Then did he mention your mother or your brothers?"
"No."
"Well, you are not allowed to tell anyone what I asked you, otherwise... I will smash the spinning wheel you made."
"....knew."
Although Liu Chang was naughty, he still had a certain fear of Liu Bang. He knew that Liu Bang always kept his word, so after meeting his mother, he did not tell her what Liu Bang asked about. However, what is confusing is that,
Empress Lu seemed to suddenly be interested in what he was learning from Han Xin.
Even Queen Lu asked the exact same question.
"Did he ask about the situation in the palace?"
"Did he ask me or your eldest brother?"
The eldest brother that Empress Lu is talking about is Liu Ying. Empress Lu seems to only admit that she has two sons. When talking about other princes with Liu Chang, she usually calls them by their first names. Only when she talks about Liu Ying, she
When talking about your eldest brother, the same goes for Liu Ying. I only talk about your younger brother when talking about Liu Chang.
Of course, at the end of the conversation, Empress Lu also threatened and intimidated Liu Chang just like Liu Bang.
"If you tell me, I won't feed you beef in the future."
It can only be said that his parents have grasped Liu Chang's Achilles' heel, preventing him from talking nonsense outside. Liu Chang himself may not even realize that he has fallen into a very terrifying political whirlpool, and no one can
Don't let your guard down, we all face the same threat.
Liu Chang was still busy with his own affairs. Hearing that Liu Chang was making a spinning wheel, Liu Ying came over once and encouraged Liu Chang with a smile, saying that his behavior was worth learning from other princes. Before Confucianism did not rise,
In other words, in the early Han Dynasty, when there was no deterioration, no one hated inventions and machines.
Qin and Han Dynasties both encouraged invention and creation. In "Bao Qin", if you can invent a new machine that is beneficial to the country, you can be promoted. Of course, I, the Han Dynasty, will not copy "Bao Qin". In my Han Dynasty, you
If you can invent something useful, you can get a reward, and the reward is usually a promotion to your title. It can be seen that I, a big man, have definitely not plagiarized "Bao Qin" in the slightest.
Therefore, in this era, making inventions and creations is not considered unskilled, and Liu Ying also supports Liu Chang's ideas.
Liu Chang was initially reluctant to tell Liu Ying about this, mainly because he didn't want to listen to Liu Ying's rationale.
Liu Ying still talked about a lot of truth, starting from the importance of invention and creation to filial piety, and talking about the issue of folk clothing, from Taoism to Confucianism, and from Confucianism to Legalism, and even
Mohism also mentioned it.
However, Liu Chang couldn't understand his long speech and just nodded stupidly.
Facts have proved that the elder brother is still reliable. Although he gave Liu Chang a certain amount of mental torture, before leaving, he asked people to bring back all the tools and raw materials Liu Chang needed. Liu Heng, Liu Ruyi and the others could not handle things.
Liu Ying can definitely handle it.
Liu Chang was overjoyed and spoke like a big brother. Liu Ying raised her head in delight.
ps: Let me explain a few points. First of all, in order to allow Liu Bang and others to appear, Lao Lang deliberately increased the ages of some princes. After all, these settings are for the sake of the plot. I hope everyone can understand.
In addition, regarding the protagonist's historical illiteracy, I am a history student. In order to write a science and engineering protagonist, I asked many friends who are already working and who fit the protagonist's pre-travel personality. Most of them know Liu Bang, Lu
Later, Han Xin and others knew Liu Che, but not Liu Heng. I asked about a dozen friends, and only two knew that Liu Heng was Emperor Wen of Han.
In fact, Lao Lang doesn't like people arguing about these things. I hope everyone can focus on the plot and talk more about the plot instead of these settings and attributes. I hope everyone can give more of their own ideas, understanding and understanding of the plot.
Opinions, this will be very helpful for Lao Lang’s next creation.
