Chen Kexin was arrested and sent to the commander's residence. He felt uneasy in his heart. He could only hope that Li Laiheng would still remember him as a Yiling scholar, and that he was really like the legendary "Master Li", a polite and virtuous corporal who cherished talents.
otherwise……
Otherwise, his life would have been like a candle in the wind. In any case, it is unclear what his intention was in writing a letter to Henan to contact the Yufu staff.
The headquarters of the Marshal's Mansion only occupies the atrium of the original Mei Mansion. In order to increase the office space, the Chuang Army also demolished the gardens and corridors, and temporarily built some sheds for the clerks and guards to live in. This capable style is indeed better than that of the original government office.
The style seems more friendly and efficient. Even the bedroom where Li Laiheng lives is just an original guest room.
Although the originally quiet and elegant garden became a lot cramped as a result, it also added a lot of practical atmosphere.
This arrangement gave Chen Kexin a little more confidence in the legend of "Master Li". It seemed that Li Laiheng was indeed not an ordinary first-class figure like the King of Green Forest Mountain, but a person with a little ambition and far-reaching aspirations.
The guards at the camp escorted him to an open space in front of the atrium. After a while, some soldiers from the Marshal's Mansion specially brought him a small stool to sit on, which made Chen Kexin feel more at ease.
What will Li Laiheng look like now?
When he was in Yiling, he had briefly glimpsed the handsome young tiger commander, Little King Li. At that time, he only thought he was a child thief with hairless lips.
Who could have expected that in less than two years, Li Laiheng would grow into a leader of thieves with tens of thousands of soldiers and the ability to shake up the great dynasty?
It even has a bit of a fighting spirit.
"Is it Chen Kexin who is the first person in Yiling Prefecture?"
Suddenly someone asked a question, which pulled Chen Kexin out of his endless thoughts. He cheered up and looked at the person asking the question. This person was tall and had a thin beard on his lips, but he still looked very young.
It is heroic and gives people a cheerful feeling.
Chen Kexin vaguely remembered that Li Laiheng's appearance was more delicate, and he did not have this handsome and outstanding demeanor. He bowed slightly, lowered his voice, and said cautiously: "The person the general is talking about is the student."
The brave and cheerful young general laughed twice and asked no more questions. On the contrary, another general beside him asked several questions in a row, saying: "Have you finished reading the Seventeen Histories?"
Are you familiar with "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu? How much do you know about Fengjiao Liuren and Qimen Dunjia?"
This general is also very young in appearance, but he also has a weather-beaten temperament. His hands are very calloused, and he must have been in the battlefield for a long time. He speaks very fast, with a slight accent from northern Shaanxi, but his pronunciation is
It's very clear, there are a lot of questions, and the tone doesn't sound like a good person.
Chen Kexin felt that this person's question must be answered with extreme caution in order to ensure the safety of his life. He tried his best to think about all aspects before answering: "Please also know that the general of Fengjiao Liuren is just using the technique of Fengjiao Liuren."
The skills of performing arts based on horoscopes are of no benefit to military affairs. Although "Sun Tzu's Art of War" is lofty and lofty, the times have changed, and military formations have changed in the past dynasties. Even if one can thoroughly study "Sun Tzu's Art of War", it will be very difficult.
It’s hard to figure out what happened in modern military affairs.”
The rude general looked happy when he heard this somewhat "arrogant" answer, but then he mocked another general who was brave and cheerful: "I'm afraid this Chen Juren won't be able to defeat us."
In the army, do you pay attention to the Song military advisor who can call the wind and rain?"
At this time, Chen Kexin knew that the heroic general was Li Laiheng's deputy and Li Zicheng's brother-in-law Gao Yigong. Gao Yigong gave him a haha and replied: "Xiong Li, you are not familiar with Song Military Advisor. He and I want to know each other more."
We are familiar with each other a lot. In fact, we don’t believe those astrological predictions, and he probably doesn’t believe them either, but most of the soldiers are willing to believe this, so it can often boost morale. What’s more, the Song military advisor is well-versed in all three religions and nine streams, and he has great influence on Henan.
He has the mountains and rivers in his mind, and this is where he relies on his ability as a strategist."
The person whom Gao Yigong called "majestic" was naturally Guo Junzhen, who had his eyes high above his head. He suppressed his smile, raised his head, looked at Chen Kexin through his nostrils, and asked again: "Chen Juren is not a good person."
Men Dunjia, who does not study "Sun Tzu's Art of War", must he be a useless person? If he is a useless person, I am afraid there is no need to meet the commander-in-chief."
Chen Kexin was panicked, but he immediately felt that although Li Laiheng did not meet him in person, he sent Gao Yigong, the deputy envoy of Jiedu, to meet him, and his high regard was obvious. Although General Xiongli said something bad, he also
It's an opportunity for you to perform well.
He hurriedly replied: "Although the student has not personally experienced the military, he has paid attention to martial arts for many years, and has dabbled a lot in the art of war, and he is quite knowledgeable. When the student traveled around, he once visited veterans who had retired and asked Qi Shaobao about his military training.
His luggage still contains one copy of "Records of Military Training" and "New Book of Records" published by the Staff Department of the Ministry of War. Qi Shaobao's book can not only describe the battle in detail, but also point out the causes and consequences of the changes in the victory and defeat of both sides.
It can be said that modern military warfare is analyzed in detail, convincing, and forgetting to read it. It is not an ordinary person who shows off "Sun Tzu's Art of War", and can be compared with those who stick to the ancients."
Chen Kexin emphasized: "Qi Shaobao's military books are practical. If the two generals are interested, I can give the two generals a copy of the "Records of Military Training" and "New Book of Records" published by the Staff Department of the Ministry of War in my luggage."
After Guo Junzhen heard Chen Kexin's different opinions on "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and Qi Jiguang's Art of War, he immediately changed his mind about this scholar who seemed to have little real ink in his heart.
Although he has not read Qi Jiguang's two military books, in fact he has not even read Sun Tzu's Art of War in full. What he just said to Chen Kexin is seven out of ten to scare people. But Guo Junzhen has a military genius who can use soldiers.
I deeply agree with what Chen Kexin said about the changes in modern weapon formations and the practical issues of military training.
Fortunately, Guo Junzhen had also read half of Sun Tzu's Art of War, and knew that what was written in it mainly focused on the basic principles of military use, and did not involve too much actual details of the evolution of weapons and tactics. Therefore, when he heard what Chen Kexin said about Qi Jiguang's two military books, he immediately
He showed strong interest.
"Qi Shaobao's Military Book? This "Military Training Record" roughly talks about how to train troops. What does the other "Ji Xiaoxin Book" talk about? Chen Juren, since you have these two books, lend them to me.
It should be okay, right?"
"No problem, no problem, of course. There is absolutely no harm in the general reading these two military books. The student went to the commander's residence and met Li Shijun. He came originally to present the military books!"
Chen Kexin's words made both Gao Yigong and Guo Junzhen burst into laughter, but at this point, even Guo Junzhen, who had always looked down on other people's talents, could not help but think highly of them.
I have become somewhat interested in Chen Kexin’s practical talents.
They both smiled, got out of the way, and took Chen Kexin to the outside of the wing where Li Laiheng lived temporarily. There was originally a woodshed for storing sundries next to the wing. In order to facilitate his work, Li Laiheng asked someone to put it in.
The two houses are connected, the inner one is a bedroom for resting, and the outer one is a living room with both office and guest functions.
The young tiger commander was still sitting at the table eating wine. After all, he had conquered many prefectures and counties. Although this dinner was simple, it was much better than the dishes eaten by the army in the past. Not only was there wine, but also meat and eggs.
There is delicious seabass abundant in Huguang.
His hair was slightly loosened, and he looked very leisurely. When he saw Gao Yigong and Guo Junzhen coming in with Chen Kexin, he stood up on his own initiative, handed Chen Kexin a pair of chopsticks, and said, "Chen Juren,
We are considered old friends who have reunited for many years. Do you want to have a drink and talk about old times today?"
Chen Kexin was flattered. He was originally worried about whether he could save his life, but now it seemed that he was really worried. Li Laiheng did not hold any grudge against him for not trying his best to assist the army in Yiling.
It shows a style of Zhou Gong spitting out his support and bringing the world back to its heart.
He did not dare to take the pair of chopsticks handed over by Li Laiheng rashly, but prostrated himself on the ground, saying that after the Battle of Yiling, he was framed by Zuo Liangyu and was framed by thieves. His family's property was confiscated, and he was forced to go into exile in Henan.
I saw all the things that happened to the people in exile and suffered from hunger, and recounted them one by one.
Not only that, Chen Kexin also revealed his deep friendship with Chen Xin, an important staff member of Henan Governor Li Xianfeng, and Henan Commander-in-Chief Chen Yongfu. He explained: "The student asked the businessman to send this letter to Henan. It is intended to persuade my brother.
Wang Chen, go south to observe Li Shijun's good fighting skills. He has absolutely no intention of collaborating with foreign enemies and subverting the army. If Li Shijun still has doubts, you can read the content of this letter in person. After reading it, you can still
If you are suspicious of a student, if you kill him again, the student will have no complaints."
