"Jun Lin, you handled this matter very well, with tact and decisiveness!" By the small lake in the guest house of Manager Yu's Mansion, Yu Juluo looked at Wang Junlin with a very appreciative expression. The young man in front of him time and time again
It brings surprises to him, and he tries his best to overestimate them every time, but in the end he finds that he still underestimates the other party.
At first, he thought Wang Junlin was just a reckless person who was good at assassinating. Later, after poisoning Longxi City, he learned that Wang Junlin possessed unrivaled poison skills. Later, after cutting off the Turkic food routes and Huoshuiquan Pass, he thought Wang Junlin was decisive in his actions.
He was good at using surprise to win, and he was very courageous. After Wang Junlin managed Gaotai City better and better, he discovered that Wang Junlin was not just a military general, but also had certain talents in governing the world. Then he went to the Western Turks as an envoy
The incident made him see Wang Junlin's talent as a general. He thought that Wang Junlin's abilities had been fully demonstrated in front of him, but Wang Junlin's response to the assassination made him realize that Wang Junlin's mind was still beyond his imagination.
Not to mention, he is very good at seizing opportunities, and he is also very sophisticated in the intrigues between officialdom and the court.
"What kind of person is your little teacher, that he can cultivate a person like you!" Yu Juluo was quite emotional.
Wang Junlin's own family knew about his affairs, so he didn't have any teachers, so he didn't take up the topic of Yu Juluo.
"Come here, sit down." Yu Juluo said casually, sitting in the pavilion by the small lake.
"How can there be a seat for a young man in front of my uncle?" Wang Junlin knew very well that the ancients valued etiquette, and the older a person is, the more he cares about the etiquette of his younger generation, so he has always been modest and cautious in this aspect.
"Your boy is obviously a military commander, but you also have the hypocrisy of civil servants. Sometimes I don't like this, but when I think about it, it is a good thing. When I was young, I was informal, but now I think about it and I suffer a lot in this regard.
At least few of those old fellows among the civil servants like me. Ugh! I heard that you are also good at calligraphy. Don’t tell me that you can also recite two poems."
Wang Junlin stopped being pretentious, sat opposite Yu Juluo, and said: "Uncle, I dare not lie to you, my handwriting is indeed good. As for poetry, although it is just a trivial matter in my opinion, I can really recite it if necessary.
Recite two poems."
Yu Juluo looked at Wang Junlin and said nothing for a long time. After a while, he said: "You are a good boy. You are good at martial arts and literature. You are also brave and strategic. You are a person who can do great things."
"A wise man will always make mistakes after thinking a lot, and a fool will gain something after thinking a lot." Wang Junlin quickly sorted out his words and said respectfully: "I'm just lucky. After I came out of the mountain, I met a great person and benefactor like my uncle. Otherwise, maybe
He has long become a reckless person, either living in the world or becoming a businessman. In short, if my uncle doesn't know people and make good use of them, even if I have some talent and means, I will have no use."
Although he knew that Wang Junlin was suspected of flattering him, Yu Juluo was still very happy after hearing this and couldn't help but sit on the stone bench and laugh.
"Okay, you kid, don't say such nonsense in front of me. Even without my support, with your talent, you will get ahead sooner or later." Since the family banquet a few days ago, Wang Junlin and
After Yu Zimo shared life and death, Yu Juluo increasingly regarded Wang Junlin as his nephew.
Wang Junlin also felt very grateful, but it was difficult to answer the question at this time, so he remained silent.
"Now that you are seriously injured, you can stay here for a month or two, just in time to practice the Spring and Autumn Sword Techniques. I know that you have your own secret skills, but you must not underestimate this world's martial arts master."
Luo warned.
Wang Junlin thought for a moment and said, "Uncle, I wonder who are the masters in the world who can compete with you?"
Yu Juluo's eyes flashed strangely, he thought for a moment, and then said: "Although there are not many first-class masters in the world who have reached the breakthrough stage, there are always twenty or thirty known people. However, the masters of the breakthrough stage are also very different.
I can't say for sure about the big ones, those hidden masters or remnants of the previous dynasty who may exist, but I, the Sui Dynasty, have a list of the top ten generals, and they are ranked based on their martial arts to a large extent."
When Wang Junlin heard this, his eyes lit up. This was the first time he heard of the existence of the list of top ten generals. He couldn't help asking: "Uncle, I heard that Wen Wu was the first and Wu Wu was the second. Who are these top ten generals?"
, who ranked it, can actually convince everyone."
Yu Juluo said with some emotion: "You are right. For military generals, no one will be convinced unless they have a fight. However, the list of the top ten generals was ranked by the Prime Minister Gao Yangao. He
The old man is known as the Grand Marshal. Today, almost all the military generals of the older generation of our Sui Dynasty serve under him. Mr. Gao is good at identifying and recommending talents, and pays attention to protecting meritorious ministers. He is humble, not arrogant, talented in civil and military affairs, and aware of world affairs.
, has been in power for the prime minister since the founding of the Sui Dynasty. In the past twenty years, he has devoted himself to his duties and made outstanding achievements. No one is dissatisfied with his list of the top ten generals."
Wang Junlin nodded. He had heard of Gao Jiong, a famous prime minister, both in the history of later generations and in this era. However, he did not expect Gao Jiong's reputation to be so high.
After listening to Yu Juluo's explanation, Wang Junlin learned that the list of the top ten generals of the Sui Dynasty, from front to back, was Ding Yanping, the double-gun general, Yu Juluo, the governor, Qiu Duan, the king of Changping, and Han Qinhu, the backer of Shangzhu.
Wang Yanglin, Duke Yang Su of Yue State, He Ruobi of Shangzhu State, General Sun Sheng, General Shi Wansui of the Four Towns, General Mai Tiezhang of Zuotunwei.
Wang Junlin had heard of all these ten people. They were all famous generals during the Sui Dynasty, and they were all famous generals who founded the Sui Dynasty.
"However, this is the list of the top ten generals ranked by Prime Minister Gao ten years ago. Now times have changed and new people have emerged in large numbers. Our younger generation of generals in the Sui Dynasty are no longer weaker than the veteran generals in terms of military force. For example, my apprentice Yuwen Chengdu, now even I
He may not be his opponent. Some time ago, when Chang Sun Sheng returned to Kyoto from Jincheng County, he told me that Prime Minister Gao had made a list of the top ten young generals after many researches. In Junlin, do you want to know who is on the list?
Shan." Yu Juluo looked at Wang Junlin and said with a half-smile.
Wang Junlin suddenly became interested and said: "I wonder who among the younger generation has fallen into the eyes of Prime Minister Gao."
Yu Juluo said with a smile: "The first one is naturally my disciple Yuwen Chengdu. He is now with King Jin. In the battle with Tuyuhun three years ago, he killed the general and captured the flag, and was named a Tianbao by His Majesty.
General. The second in line is a fierce general. He is over thirty years old. His name is Zhang Xutuo. His official position is Guoyi Captain like you, but he is extremely powerful. He fought against the Eastern Turks five years ago.
Among them, I once watched him kill enemies from a distance, and his strength is no weaker than those of us old guys. In third place is Ding Yanping’s apprentice Luo Cheng. It is said that he has received the true inheritance of Ding Yanping, and his marksmanship is superb. "
Yu Juluo only introduced the situation of the first three, and the following people did not go into details. They were Sifang Zhonglang Hui Huer, Ying Yanglang General Pei Yuanqing, Guoyi Duwei Wang Junlin, Zhaoyong General Qiu Fu, Anyuan General Zhou Fashang
, Yingyang Langjiang Han Ziliang, Sihu School Wei Yuwen Wenji.
Among them, except Wang Junlin, who has no foundation and seems to have appeared suddenly, the others are either from aristocratic families or from general families. For example, Pei Yuanqing comes from the Pei family in Hedong, but Qiu Fu is the son of King Qiu Rui of Changping and the father of Zhou Fashang.
He was also the founding general of the Sui Dynasty, and Han Ziliang was the son of Shangzhuguo Han Qinhu. As for the Sihu school Wei Yuwen and his father Yuwenshu, they worshiped General Youwei in the early years of the Sui Dynasty, although they were not among the older generations.
He is one of the top ten generals, but in the imperial court he is a powerful official.
"And Qiu Fun is the eldest son of Qiu Rui. It is said that he has received the true inheritance from that old guy Qiu Rui. He is very skilled in martial arts. The Changping Palace has three treasures: a horse helmet, a seven-feather armor, and a furnace gun. In addition, Qiu Rui asked for ten thousand gold five years ago.
The horse he got is named Hulei Bao. You are likely to conflict with it after you arrive in the capital. If you fight with it, you must be careful." To this day, Yu Juluo knows that Wang Junlin has a deep grudge with the Changping Palace, so he emphasized it again.
Ichiban.
"Thank you uncle, I will remember my uncle's teachings. I will be extremely careful when I meet Qiu Fu in the future." Wang Junlin said immediately.
In addition, during the conversation between Wang Junlin and Yu Juluo, he also learned some secrets from his mouth. For example, the patron king Yang Lin originally wanted Yuwen Chengdu to learn marksmanship from Ding Yanping, but Yang Lin felt that Yuwen Chengdu could not win no matter how much he learned.
Ding Yanping, then Yuwen Chengdu learned other martial arts from Yu Juluo. In addition to being Luo Cheng's master, Ding Yanping also taught Pei Yuanqing the chain hammer. However, the famous gun god Ding Yanping had already lived in seclusion five years ago.
In the deep mountains of Qinling Mountains, you don't care about worldly affairs.
"At that time, I was entrusted by the general Yuwen Shu and my patron Wang Yanglin to accept Yuwen Chengdu as my apprentice. These two people were originally interested in my Spring and Autumn Swordsmanship, but after I learned about Yuwen Chengdu's infinite strength, I did not give him any advice.
Yuwen Chengdu taught me the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique that I became famous for, but ordered someone to build a seven-foot phoenix-winged gold-plated boring machine to teach him to practice boring. Now it turns out that I was right, Yu Wencheng has practiced martial arts, and his skills are already faint.
It surpasses the momentum of our older generation." Yu Juluo recalled what happened back then with some emotion.
Only then did Wang Junlin realize that the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique that Yu Juluo taught him a few days ago was so famous that even figures like Yu Wenshu and Yang Lin coveted it. He couldn't help but feel moved, and immediately knelt down and said: "Uncle taught the younger generation the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique.
It is equivalent to the mentor of the younger generation, please accept your disciples and pay homage."
Yu Juluo did not stop him and sat down to receive Wang Junlin's bow. He was very happy to repay Wang Junlin's kindness.
After Wang Junlin stood up, Yu Juluo said: "The Spring and Autumn Sword Technique is actually a technique for killing enemies on foot. I have been galloping on the battlefield for many years, but I rely on a precious spear. Since you call me master, now you can do it here.
In more than a month, I will teach you how to use the sword?"
