Chapter 8: Fighting!
Under the willow forest, the gold leaves are paved on the ground, and the master and apprentice look at each other, and suddenly stagger their eyes at the same time.
"Master, my father is on a southern expedition, Cangshu doesn't want to have to fight with his master's sword and soldiers, and asks the teacher to be clear!" Cao Chong faced Xu Shu and bowed directly.
"Cangshu, get up!" Xu Shu hurriedly came to help Cao Chong.
"If the master does not agree to be the enemy of the father, then Cangshu will not be able to kneel for a long time!"
Xu Shu didn't expect Cao Chong to be stubborn, so he had to let Cao Chong kneel on the ground.
"You! After all, I still don't believe in teachers! Xu Shu shook his head helplessly, but the love and pity in his eyes became thicker.
Where else can you find such a good disciple who cares about the teacher?
"It's not that I don't believe in the master, it's just that Cangshu doesn't want to be the enemy of the master!"
joke, if you really let Liu Da'er get Xu Shu, then Cao Chong can only cry.
And if Xu Shu can agree to his request, then when the provincial relatives return, Xu Shu can not be his right-hand man.
Give yourself advice!
"That's it, I'll promise you!" Xu Shu sighed, and then helped Cao Chong up.
Worshipping the king and assisting the Holy Lord is the dream of many scholars, and Xu Shu is no exception.
But if you already have Wolong, then there is no more than me, and no more than me, so why bother?
"Master Xie, Cangshu is stubborn, and he still needs a lot of polishing from his master!"
Cao Chong had a joy on his face that could not be concealed, and regardless of the soil on the ground, he hurriedly kowtowed three times.
"You kid ......" Xu Shu slapped the dust on Cao Chong's body, wiped the mud on Cao Chong's forehead with his cuffs, and helped Cao Chong up.
"Between the world and the world, like a white horse passing through the gap, suddenly, if you and I still have a master-apprentice relationship, then Taiyi God will naturally have some arrangements."
Cao Chong bowed down again, although he was respectful and respectful, he didn't think like this in his heart.
As a materialist young man in the 21st century, Cao Chong never believed in this fate, the so-called fate is just to rely on oneself to fight, relying on God's arrangement, then you might as well wait for death.
"Okay, Cangshu, let the teacher take the final test for you!"
Xu Shu looked at Cao Chong carefully, and then walked slowly into Chongyuan Hall, and Cao Chong naturally followed behind Xu Shu.
In Chongyuan Hall, Cao Chong followed Xu Shu to respectfully offer incense to Confucius before entering the inner room.
The bright afternoon sunlight shining in the window only adds to the bookish atmosphere of the inner room.
Cao Chong sat on the ground, kneeling on the ground obediently, and looked at Xu Shu with a worried face.
Dude, don't say you want me to memorize anything like that, let's have something practical, okay?
"I will part, I want to come to those Mengxue works, Cangshu has already memorized it backwards, then I will take the other exams!"
Call~
Cao Chong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as long as it is not the so-called Mengxue chapter, everything else is easy to say.
Xu Shu took out a silk cloth from the library, the silk cloth was like a long stick, and there seemed to be something like bamboo slips in it.
Xu Shu took apart the silk cloth, took out a map of animal skins, and slowly unfolded it in front of Cao Chong.
Cao Chong hurriedly stepped forward and found that the map was a map of the Jingzhou region.
The mountains and rivers above, the city passes, are clearly marked among them.
"Master, this map ......" Cao Chong looked at the map of Jingzhou with a look of surprise, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while.
Maps of this era were not so easy to come by, let alone maps that indicated the various passes.
This is already a classified document.
"Oh, don't misunderstand Cangshu, this is a gift from the prime minister to Xu Shu, but Xu Shu is stupid and can't think of any brilliant ideas, so I'll take it to Cangshu today!"
"The Master is humble......"
I'm afraid it's not that you can't come up with an idea, but you don't want to say it!
It can be seen from Xu Shu's tone of remembering Liu Bei that compared to Cao Cao, Xu Shu still likes Liu Bei.
This is probably why Xu Shu was not given a heavy responsibility by Cao Cao, but became Cao Chong's teacher!
"Does Cang Shu know how the prime minister will send troops?"
Cao Chong shook his head, he didn't know anything about military affairs, he only knew that Cao Cao sent Xiahoudun up first, and he would be killed by Zhuge Liang.
Then Cao Cao was furious and sent troops to fight Liu Bei for a while, beating him into a lost dog.
As for the details, it may be different from the romance, and Cao Chong is not clear.
"Soldier, treacherous! Especially the prime minister's life, he knows it better, and this lesson is to teach you how to fight! ”
"How to fight?"
Cao Chong's eyes gradually lit up, reborn in the Three Kingdoms, you can't rely on Wenfu talent all your life, you also have to have military talent, after all, this is a troubled era, not a prosperous era!
"Yes, "The Art of War" has a cloud: the first army to fight, the second to fight, the second to attack the army, the next to attack the city, and the army to surrender without a fight is the best policy."
"What the teacher teaches today is to win without a fight!"
Win without a fight?
Cao Chong's posture was straight, his back hips were off the ground, and his face was already very close to Xu Shu.
Sun Tzu said: The law of the husband and the soldier, the whole country is the first, and the country is second; The whole army is the first, and the broken army is second; The whole brigade is the first, and the broken brigade is second; The whole pawn is the first, and the broken pawn is second; The whole army is the first, and the army is second. ”
"Therefore, a hundred battles are won, and the good is not good; The soldiers who surrender without a fight, and the good ones are also good. ”
Cao Chong was surrounded by Xu Shu's ancient texts, and only after a long time did he say: "Master, let's make it clearer!"
Xu Shu shook his head at Cao Chong, knowing that this disciple Wenfu may be good, but he is indeed not a handsome talent.
"Take this Jingzhou as an example!"
Xu Shu pointed to the map and said slowly: "Jingzhou is fertile for thousands of miles, the country is rich and the people are strong, adjacent to the Yangtze River, and north to Fancheng, but for the teacher, the prime minister does not need to use a soldier to subdue a thousand miles of land!"
Cao Chong was silent, because Cao Cao did not abolish a single soldier in history, so he took Jingzhou, but he might as well listen to what Xu Shu said.
"Why?"
"Liu Biao is dying of old age, I heard that he is critically ill, but the eldest son Liu Qi is far away in Jiangling, and he is not treated by Liu Biao, so he thinks that Jingzhou is bound to be in chaos!"
"And in the chaos, you can achieve the greatest victory!"
"Master is reasonable!"
"Besides, Jingzhou is not only the Jingzhou of Liu Biao, but also the Jingzhou of the Cai family, and Cai Mao has a lot of friendship with the prime minister."
Cao Chong nodded, in history, the reason why Liu Cong surrendered the city was mostly because of Cai Mao's contributions.
"Inside, there is a dispute between the concubines in Jingzhou, and outside, there is the Cai family eyeing the tiger, so the teacher dares to say that the prime minister does not need to abolish a soldier to take Jingzhou."
At this point, Cao Chong had to admire Xu Shu's resourcefulness, Cao Chong himself was standing on the shoulders of historical giants to see the world, and some of his insights were naturally incisive.
But Xu Shu is a person in the bureau, with just a few words of information, you can infer an ending similar to the development of history, this is not a great talent, what is it?
Seeing this, Cao Chong's mood of subduing Xu Shu was strengthened a lot.
It would be a shame that such talents do not work under me!
"Master is talented, why don't you advise my father?"
Xu Shu smiled bitterly, and then said slowly: "This time I have already agreed to Uncle Huang, I will not help the prime minister, so naturally I have to do what I say!"
"I see!" Cao Chong gave his hand, but he asked the problem that Cao Chong wanted to solve the most.
"Master, my father has given me a task, and ...... Cangshu wants to ask Master, what should I do?"
Cao Chong said the task assigned by Cao Cao in one sentence, and then looked at Xu Shu with blank eyes, thinking that he could show the way.
After all, Zhou Budo and himself are still freshly baked fritters, with a narrow vision, and they are not as old as Xu Shu, who is already an old fritter.
There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure!
"Hehe, this is the prime minister's test, but being a teacher can't help you!"
Xu Shu was full of smiles, holding his beard with his hands, and his eyes were all the color of laughter.
"Master's ......"
"Needless to say, this is the prime minister's examination school, and you need to complete it yourself!"
Alas~
Xu Shu must know how to solve this matter perfectly, but he doesn't say it, Cao Chong is not easy to force, fortunately, he already has a thought.
It's just that Cao Chong was worried in his heart, and he didn't know whether his guess was right or wrong.
