Chapter 142: Choosing Troops or Cities

The young general said: "To put it lightly, if you leave without a fight, won't you give up the land of the city?"

Zhang Xiaoheng smiled: "This is another misunderstanding, knowing that there is no enemy and knowing that there is no enemy and abandoning the war, are both feasible choices, if you don't consider the real problem, just say the war itself, you can't fight, naturally let it go first, and then recuperate, collect intelligence, and find the right time to fight again." ”

The young general of Qingjia was sure that his idea was right, so he shook his head and sneered: "It's easy to say." ”

"yes, we're talking about it now, and we're just talking about it. Zhang Xiaoheng smiled and didn't argue, but asked: "If there is a strong city on the border, and there are currently 100,000 troops to defend against foreign enemies, I only ask, is the main force of the enemy a strong city, or the 100,000 garrisons?"

......

The meeting lasted for a morning, and it was not until after noon that Zhang Xiaoheng was released, and after following the guidance to find his team members, he finally began the five-day trial of the Sikong General's Mansion.

Ming Shuai took the Qingjia junior general to the bloody killing training camp, but he didn't go in, just took a deep look and left.

On the way, Ming Wuyi glanced at the young man in the green armor: "Shanchang, are you still thinking about that question?"

The young Qingjia general named Shanchang frowned and said: "Master (note, it's a master, not a handsome, not a typo), I still don't understand, why do you respect this person so much? The battle of soldiers is naturally a battle for every inch of land, that is the most fundamental, isn't it? If the land is lost, how can it continue to multiply? How can it increase the number of soldiers and horses? In the long run, the country will be no longer a country, so what is the use of keeping your own team?"

Ming Wuyi glanced at him: "Shanchang, what do you want to learn when you come to me? Leading the army, or governing the country? If you want to learn how to govern the country, then you have come to the wrong place." ”

The young general of Qingjia replied: "Of course, it is to learn the way of leading the army, and the apprentice is most interested in the inheritance of the military way." ”

"If that's the case, then you're wrong, I don't know what those old men would say when it comes to governing the country, but when it comes to leading the army, what the young man said is right. "Ming Wu's face is expressionless, and the words he says are also hard, cold and cold.

"But ......" Shanchang said urgently: "Isn't it the foundation of the military road if the land is not lost?"

"That's right, but it's too shallow. Originally, these two are important things, interdependent, and indispensable, but if you really want to make a choice, who is important about the gains and losses of a city and a place?

"You say that soldiers have the responsibility to defend their land, which is not true at all, but is your land the city, or the whole world?"

"This ......" Shanchang didn't expect Ming Wuyi to say such a thing, and the whole person was shocked in place, unable to move.

Ming Wufei stared at him expressionlessly and said: "If you don't understand this, don't say anything about being unique in the army as soon as possible, you don't know yourself and your opponent, you haven't even figured out what war is, maybe, go to those old men to learn how to govern the country, there is still a way out." ”

Shanchang's face changed, and he was stunned for a long time: "Master...... I, I'm also the one who graduated with my own strength, but he's still in training......"

"Oh? So, you think that he must be inferior to you?" Ming Wu's face was expressionless: "Shanchang, do you know, this is arrogant? You are a genius of Moyu, but genius should surpass others in every way? Such a person is a monster, although that child is still training, but he may not be able to master a certain way, or have a certain kind of talent that others can't match, surpass you in some places, what's so strange?"

Shanchang lowered his head and didn't speak, but his unwilling expression became more intense.

Ming Wuyi saw this, and said coldly: "Shanchang, you must know that as the main general, you need to be good at using people to be able to use soldiers well, I am the generalissimo of the Moyu Western Front, then I must be better than General Zuo in the matter of charging? In terms of cavalry and archery, I must be better than General Zhao? In terms of battlefield command, must I be better than General Sikong?"

"What are you doing better than them? They just listen to me, and their military exploits, contributions, rewards, and money must be taken from me. ”

"This is true for the main generals, and even more so for the kings, even if the ruler is not as good as the prime minister, what if the leader is not as good as the general? As long as you understand the hearts of the people, can be tolerant, let the general bow down with peace of mind, and use it for the king, isn't it?"

Shanchang listened to it in a cold sweat, and he couldn't imagine that he almost got into the tip of the bull's horn for a while, and hurriedly performed a complete spiritual ritual: "Thanks to the Master's guidance, I used to be the first in everything, and only in this way can others obey me, I can't think of it...... Listening to the Master's words today, some things in the past suddenly became clear. However, I still don't understand why defending the territory and defending the army have become the difference between leading the army and governing the country? Is the principle of leading the army different from the principle of governing the country?"

Ming Wuyi nodded: "Speaking of which, you finally asked a decent question, calmed down so quickly, and reflected so quickly, I can understand why your father knew my temper and handed you over to me to teach." ”

"I know nothing more than what I say, I have always said one thing and never lies, others are hindered by your identity, and many things will not be said to you, so let me be thundered. It doesn't matter, I know that my temper has never changed since I was a child, since you ask directly, I will say bluntly, the military and the country originally represent two different periods. ”

"When the army is heavy, leading the army to fight a war, mostly when the country is in danger and the flames of war are raging, the world is undecided, and the heroes are rising together, and it is not safe to go anywhere, so how can we talk about rest and recuperate? Every soldier and horse are extremely important, and one less is one less strength, and it is very difficult to replenish it. When the country is heavy, leading troops to fight, most of them are the country's great governance, the world is settled, and there are few wars, at that time, it is natural to not give up an inch of land, and there is enough land to live and reproduce in order to ensure that the army is strong and strong, and the follow-up forces are endless, and the military fortune is prosperous. The so-called systems and principles need to be established differently according to the differences between the military and the state. ”

"Now...... Do you know where the gap is between you and that kid?"

...... Shanchang remembered his previous so-called "argument based on reason", and suddenly felt embarrassed, his attitude at that time was a little ridiculous, no wonder he threw out a question, he didn't bother to fight with himself, and no wonder Ming Shuai and the generals didn't bother to discuss this matter anymore, and took the initiative to diverge and talk about other topics.

Originally...... At that time, in the eyes of everyone, he was a clown.

Even though he knew this, he still had a question: "Master, even though the gap between me and him is not small, but Master, you can talk to him for half a day, why do you think so highly of him? Does he really have the capital to talk to you?"

Ming Wuyi glanced at him: "What's more, in fact, I still want to ask for more advice, at least in the matter of polemics, this son may be above me." ”

"How is this possible!" This time, Shanchang was really shocked, no matter what he thought, he couldn't imagine that on this level, what kind of person was the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses on the western front of the Moyu Kingdom? There are generalissimos of the soldiers and horses on the four fronts of the east, west, north and south, why he chose him as his teacher, is because he is the most powerful.

Such a character actually admitted that he was inferior to a child in his world-famous "polemics"?

"Of course it is. Ming Shuai didn't feel ashamed at all, a real master, always has an apprentice's heart: "Didn't you notice? I was always asking for advice just now, and he was answering, so of course he was amazing, he solved several problems that had plagued me for many years, didn't you find it, am I very excited?"

Shanchang's eyes widened, your expressionless look, is it excited?

Ming Wu's face was expressionless, and he said even more indifferently: "If it weren't for that young man who had to go to the trial, I really wouldn't have a reason to keep him, I really want to ask a few more questions, well, I feel that he still has something to hide, well, next time ......"

"But......" Shanchang asked with a strange expression, "Dashuai, haven't you been examining him all the time before he can answer the questions?" Also, you look really excited? Heaven and earth conscience, so many pairs of eyes are staring at you cautiously, you have no expression at all, where are you excited?

Although I have been with Ming Shuai for half a year, this is the first time I have seen him talk so much...... But it's not exciting, is it?

Shanchang looked at Ming Shuai standing up speechlessly, looked at the direction of the Sikong General's Mansion with a lofty face, and said expressionlessly: "Xixiu City, I will come again soon, this time, I want to come out with some more things, so as to live up to my title of 'polemic ghost talent', little guy, you wait!"

Shanchang gasped, obviously completely expressionless, obviously very cold, what is the feeling of burning up inexplicably? Why can a person with an expressionless face still express so much meaning? God, is there really so much I have to learn!

Ming Shuai didn't know what Shanchang was feeling, and he said the last sentence firmly: "Wait, little one...... What's the name of that little guy?"

"Poof......" Shanchang almost squirted out a mouthful of old blood!

Looks like there's a lot to learn.
