In the Tianzihao examination room, Yang Ji was holding a writing brush and looking at the test paper in front of him with a focused expression.
The surrounding atmosphere was vaguely strange, but Yang Ji didn't pay attention to it. The terrain, the wind, the formation of troops... These things Yang Ji didn't have an advantage over others.
Those who can make it to the final list of eighty people are basically all talented, have extraordinary backgrounds, and are far more powerful than others. Compared with them, Yang Ji doesn't have much advantage.
Quite, because the font is stronger and neater. Yang Ji's answer speed is even slightly slower than others.
"about there."
Yang Ji examined the article he wrote and thought to himself. Unlike others, Yang Ji did not rush to make the final decision after answering the previous part.
The martial arts examination was of great importance to Yang Ji. It was not just about answering questions, but also related to his future life and career.
Yang Ji seemed very cautious and did not dare to be careless in the slightest. After answering all the questions, Yang Ji had to check them carefully to prevent any omissions.
This is also the reason why people like Yang Ji and Sui Yiqiu take much longer to write.
"Now there's only one last question left."
Yang Ji put his left hand on the table, and subconsciously tapped the iron table with his fingers, making a clanging sound. When it came to the final showdown, Yang Ji couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"Wang Tai is the examiner this time. I hope he will come up with the questions this time."
Yang Ji secretly thought in his heart.
The policy topics of the imperial court are different every year, and it is very difficult to bet on them. If you read everything and study everything with your heart, it will most likely be in vain.
Yang Ji could only bet that this question was given by Wang Tai.
"Whoa!"
His fingers grabbed the corners of the test paper and turned it over. At this moment, for Yang Ji, time seemed to have stopped. The simple movement of turning a page became extremely long in the feeling.
Yang Ji looked at the corners of the snow-white test paper turned up high, and his heart started to lift as well, as if he was about to stop breathing.
"laugh!"
When the last page was turned over, two neat fonts with oak impressions came into view on the frosty and snowy blank test paper:
"Ding Bian!"
Two simple words, but they seem to be of great importance.
Yang Ji stared at these two words and even stopped breathing. In the flash of lightning, countless thoughts passed through his mind. After a long time, Yang Ji finally breathed a long sigh of relief and relaxed in his heart.
"The bet was right!"
As if a heavy burden had been lifted, Yang Ji felt filled with joy.
The last topic of this martial arts examination, "Current Affairs Policy", was different from what Yang Ji had imagined. However, the two words "Dingbian" covered a very wide range.
Yang Ji's efforts in studying flowers on the western frontier can still be put to use.
The so-called Dingbian means "Dingding Bianlong".
This includes the barbarians in the west, the demon tribe, the mysterious and endless sea tribe living at the bottom of the ocean, and even other civilizations in alien spaces.
"Sir Wang Tai is the examiner of the martial arts examination. Although the question this time does not mention the barbarians, the word Dingbian probably still has his influence in it."
Yang Ji's mind went up and down one after another. Thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning.
Although the word "dingbian" seems to have a very wide range and can be written about almost anything, the word "bian" has actually limited its scope.
"The important matters of the country, the road of life and death, must be carefully observed. Dingbian involves the border of the imperial court. There are so many generals, princes, court tycoons, and millions of armies in command. There is a problem that cannot be solved. What's the point of a single martial arts boy?
How can virtue be able to resolve such major national issues?"
Yang Ji knew it well. This last question on current affairs policy was too big and difficult to answer.
A poor answer will only make people laugh. An overly broad question will make it extremely difficult. Since the founding of the imperial court, what characters have not appeared? What methods have not been tested?
It's rash, if there is nothing substantive and just some big but empty truths, there is no doubt that it will be removed.
Yang Ji frowned, holding the pen in his hand, and said nothing.
The imperial court has many border troubles, large and small. If you rashly talk about pacifying monsters, pacifying barbarians, and pacifying the sea tribe, no matter how good you say it, it is just ignorant and fearless, and it will only make people laugh.
If you want to be recognized by the court, you must have something meaningful to say. Pingyao, Pingman, Pinghai tribe, you can't even take up half a word. You can only change the topic into a small one, and talk about it as small as possible.
But it is useless to be small. And we must be able to see the big from the small. From the small, we can reveal the big principles and clarify the problems.
"This article is not easy to write."
Yang Ji raised his head, his mind was filled with thoughts.
Although he had some strategies in his mind, the questions were different, so the answers were naturally different. If he wanted to respond to the question "Determining the Edge", he had to do some calculations.
Yang Ji didn't know how other people did it, but there was no doubt that this question was a test of wisdom and personal talent in military strategy.
This is not just a matter of reading the "Martial Arts" for a few days, or reading a few "Martial Arts". If you don't have anything in mind, no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to write articles that suit the situation.
"We are all just martial arts students. Many of us have never even left Langya County before, let alone Taiyi Continent. Only one in a thousand can enter the border area. I don't know why the test this time is so difficult.
?”
Yang Ji secretly thought in his heart.
Entrusting state affairs such as the Dingding border to "Wu Tongsheng", a student who had just entered the imperial examination career, was like handing over a magic weapon to a baby waiting to be fed, which seemed a bit hasty.
It is also somewhat beyond everyone’s vision and strength.
Yang Ji didn't know what the imperial court was thinking. But all he could do now was just accept the challenge.
Yang Ji thought about it, and the topographic map of the Western Taishang Continent appeared in his mind, with endless mountains, rivers, land, vegetation, forests, and cities and towns emerging one by one.
Yang Ji's "sight" went back and forth along the interlocking cities on the boundary line, and finally settled on the city that stood out most in the northwest and penetrated the deepest into the wilderness.
"His!"
Taking a deep breath, Yang Ji picked up his pen, poured thick ink into the plain inkstone, and then wrote the first line:
"A scholar has a plan to conquer the world, and a young phoenix dares to sing."
These two lines of words were eloquent, vigorous and powerful. As soon as these two lines of words were written, a majestic atmosphere came out through the paper. And the aura of Yang Ji suddenly changed, like a sword unsheathed, the golden and iron
The sound penetrated into the clouds, revealing a sense of competition.
"The important border land has tens of millions of lives at stake. If you don't have a strong army, you can't show your weight. If you use a heavy ceremony, you can't frighten the enemy. There is a saying that a mountain can't accommodate two tigers, and a pond can't accommodate two dragons. Therefore, if you can fight, don't make peace with it, and if you can win, don't talk lightly.
Abandoned..."
Yang Ji turned his pen, and for more than half a month, all the experiences he had studied on border strategy and national military affairs poured out on the paper like water from a sluice gate.
"Buzz!"
When Yang Ji poured out what he had gained in his heart, he poured out the paper. In an instant, there was a clang, like a sword clanging across the void, and like a thunderbolt passing through the void.
In the dark, a strong sound of killing burst out from the Tianzihao examination room. This killing sound was pure and strong. As soon as it appeared, it almost suppressed Sui Yiqiu, Zhang Dang, Zhou Qun and others.
sound.
"However, the jungle has no boundaries, the monster forest is endless, and the vast ocean is even more boundless. Take something in advance, and you must give it in advance. If you shoot a man before you shoot a horse, and if you capture a thief, you must capture the king. In the four seas, the barbarians should be the most important. Nine barbarians
Tao, the border troubles in the west are headed by 'Cangxu City'. If Cangxu City is determined, then the West will be determined. If the West is determined, the barbarians will be determined, and if the barbarians are determined, the world will be determined!"
When Yang Ji's pen fell on the paper, it was like thousands of horses galloping. When the last sentence "The barbarians set the rules for the world" came out, the earth shook, and in the dark, bursts of shouting sounds sounded in the void, as if thousands of troops and horses roared.
Kills enemies normally.
"Buzz!"
In the examination room of Dizihao, Sui Yiqiu was suddenly startled, and a ball of ink almost stained the test paper. Zhang Dang, Zhou Qun and others' eyelids twitched, and they were unable to write even a single word because of Yang Ji's influence.
At this time, Yang Ji's mind wandered, forgetting both things and myself. He completely forgot about the outside world and sank into what he had been thinking about for the past half month.
"Cangxu City" is the place with the most serious border problems in Taishangzhou in the west, and is also one of the representative places that has been most seriously invaded by barbarians.
Yang Ji checked the map and found that "Cangxu City" was deep into the barbarian's area of influence, and the nearest city to it was also two hundred miles away.
This means that once "Cangxu City" is attacked, it will be almost impossible to get assistance from other cities in a short period of time.
In order to solve this problem, the imperial court guarded there far more troops than other cities. But these were of no use at all.
The constant barbarian intrusion has caused the depletion of military strength here to be much higher than that of other cities. The rate of military strength replenishment is also faster than that of other cities.
In order to solve this problem, the imperial court sent three old generals and seven young and promising generals to solve the matter.
But as a result, two of the three old generals died in office, and the remaining one was replaced because of his incompetence. He is still locked up in a sky jail.
And the seven young and promising generals, although they were all high-spirited when they came and had the ambition to govern the country and regulate the borders, they still died there one by one in the end.
And among them, there are not even high-level generals at the seventh level of martial arts.
Even the powerful Wu Zongjing was killed silently. The danger Cangxu City faced could be imagined. The imperial court once considered abandoning the city, or sending a more powerful prince to punish him, or simply a Martial Saint.
Go and sit down.
However, strong men at the level of martial saints are extremely sensitive. Once they appear on the border, they will be considered as a precursor to the court's rule-based actions, which can easily cause a strong backlash from the barbarians, and then trigger a large-scale bilateral war.
That would be more loss than gain. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
