Dragon fights in Tang Dynasty

"Oh, old man, it's really useless." Sitting in the study, Li Jing beat his sore left leg, heaved a sigh of relief, and muttered something, his mind was a little tense—— Ever since he was injured in the Eastern Turkic War three and a half years ago, Li Jing's health has been changing day by day. He has never recovered, and every time he returns home, he will always be in pain for a long time. Thinking of those gold and iron horses in the past, how can Li Jing not be embarrassed.

It's been three years, and it's been three years since he left the army. Although he was promoted to the high position of You Pushe, he is actually a mud bodhisattva who doesn't care about things. This makes Li Jing, who is full of skills, feel a little sad—it's not that he is incompetent It's not that he doesn't want to take care of things. In fact, he doesn't dare to take care of things. Without him, the master of high achievements will always end up, right?Even though Li Jing is now in a semi-retired state, there are still many people who sue him in private. If Li Shimin's open-mindedness is not comparable to others, what awaits Li Jing can only be the fate of being executed. Isn't there still a lot of things like killing donkeys?How about Han Xin?Isn't it also the art of war that masters the gods, and the achievements are unrivaled?But in the end it didn't end up in a violent end.

Hey, maybe it's time to retire to take care of the elderly, and the memorial will be published in a few days.Li Jing was secretly depressed for a while, and made up his mind to retire. He picked up the tea bowl in front of him, took a small sip, and a fresh fragrance slipped through his throat, which made Li Jing refreshed and gave a soft compliment. : "Good tea."

"Sir, this tea is of course good tea, and it was specially brought to you by His Highness the King of Han." A magnetic voice sounded beside Li Jing.

"Oh, ma'am, you're here." Li Jing raised his head and found his wife, Hong Fu Nu, who immediately greeted her with a smile.

"It's been a while since I came here. Seeing that my husband is lost in thought, I didn't dare to interrupt." Nearly sixty years old, but still looking like a beautiful girl in her early thirties, Zhang Shi, a red-haired girl, said with a smile: "My husband , His Royal Highness King of Han really has a heart, it is said that he specially entrusted someone to bring this tea from Hangzhou to Xianggong, I think this child is not bad."

"En." Li Jing replied noncommittally, and his face darkened. How about Li Zhen? Li Jing, who has been Li Zhen's teacher for more than two years, naturally knows it well-intelligent, persistent, calm, and his talent is high. The only person Li Jing has seen in his life may not have Li Zhen's ability to never forget. He didn't dare to confer all his abilities on his own, and he wanted to take another look to make sure whether this talented King of Han was reliable or not. At this time, he heard Hong Funu talk about Li Zhen, Li Jing But he didn't want to say more, just smiled and said: "Hong Fu, your vision has always been good, if you think it is good, then it must be good."

Hongfu girl has been with Li Jing all her life, and she has already known Li Jing's character. When she heard this, she knew that Li Jing was still hesitating, so she didn't want to say anything more, and changed the subject with a smile: "I listened to Hai A guest (a businessman in overseas trade) said that the overseas Fuyu country was captured by someone a few years ago, and the person who claimed to be surnamed Zhang must be the eldest brother?"

The big brother that Hongfu girl spoke of is naturally the famous bearded man. Since he felt ashamed to be inferior to Li Shimin, he has gone overseas, and there has been no news. A few days ago, Li Jing also heard people talking about the Fuyu country, and he also had some doubts. The king whose surname is Zhang is the bearded man, but he didn't see it with his own eyes, so he didn't dare to be sure of it. Hearing Hong Funv talk about it now, he naturally understood that Hong Funv missed her sworn brother. He smiled hurriedly, and was about to say something to comfort him, when he suddenly saw the housekeeper rushing in, his face darkened immediately, and he asked indifferently, "What's the matter of being so flustered?"

"Hui, Hui Xiangye's words, His Royal Highness the King of Han arrived outside the door, and he also brought a huge thing." The old butler was rushed by Li Jing's unkind tone, knowing that he came at a bad time, his mouth immediately became awkward. Disappointed, he stammered back.

"Huh?" Li Jing was stunned for a moment, and he didn't realize it for a while. Without him, today is the early court day, and it is also one of the few rest days for Li Zhen. In the past, Li Zhen never came to the door at such a time, but This time, not only did people come, but they also brought "big guys" with them. It's strange that there is nothing strange here.Li Jing frowned and thought for a while, "Just say that the old man is tired, let him come back tomorrow."

"Yes." The old butler responded respectfully, turned around to leave, and Hong Fu Nu hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, my lord, His Royal Highness King of Han may be visiting at this time, and there may be something important to do, so why not meet me. "

"Well, that's all, let him come in." Li Jing thought for a while, nodded and said.

Not long after the old housekeeper left, Li Zhen arrived, followed by a group of people carrying a big guy covered with a cloth, and rushed to the outside of the study in a mighty manner.Seeing Li Jing and his wife, Li Zhen took a few steps quickly, bowed respectfully and said: "Student has seen Li Xiang and Madam."

Hong Fu Nu just nodded with a smile, but did not speak, Li Jing frowned and said: "Why is Your Highness looking for this old man in such a hurry?"

What's the matter?Haha, we are here to catch your big fish, you should just take the bait obediently!Li Zhen was very proud of herself, but with a gentle smile on her face, she replied softly: "Li Xiang, the student occasionally thought about it, and got a sharp weapon. I don't know if its function can be achieved, so I'm here to invite Li Zhen." Make a judgement."

"Huh?" Li Jing has long been accustomed to Li Zhen's whimsical ideas. To be honest, Li Jing still appreciates Li Zhen's ability to come up with new gadgets such as furniture and printing thaumaturgy. He became very curious for a while. However, I was a little vigilant, fearing that an ambush was set up in Li Zhen's words, I frowned, looked at Li Zhen for a long time, and said: "The old man is not knowledgeable, and I'm afraid I won't be able to help His Highness the King of Han. It’s good for others to appreciate it for you.”

Well, the old man is really cautious, hey, what to do with someone else, we are too old to rely on you.Upon hearing Li Jing's excuses, Li Zhen hurriedly said: "Returning to Li Xiang, others can't tell the good or bad of things like students. Only Li Xiang can do this in the Tang Dynasty."

"Spoof." Li Jing raised his airs as a teacher and scolded lightly, but his curiosity was completely aroused by Li Zhen, and he glanced at Li Zhen and said, "Then take it up."

Haha, what I want is your old saying!Li Zhen smiled smugly, without saying much, asked someone to erect the thing, carefully carried it into the study room, waved her hand, motioned the people to back down, walked to the thing by herself, and stretched out her hand to cover it. The cloth on the top was lifted, revealing a huge terrain model, and a large number of small flags of various colors, which turned out to be the sand table military flag deduction tools of later generations

Others may not understand what kind of thing this thing is, but Li Jing saw the military use contained in it at a glance, froze for a moment, and vaguely guessed Li Zhen's real intention, his face suddenly became a little ugly, and he was about to speak Seeing off the guests, Li Zhen has sharp eyes, quickly picked up the small flags of various colors, and said with a smile: "Li Xiang, this thing is called a sand table, and its purpose is to deduce the war, which is beneficial to the formation of troops. The student occasionally thought about what he got, but he didn't know if it could be used properly, so he wanted to ask Li Xiangdai to appraise the first and second, if it is suitable, the student intends to dedicate this item to the emperor, and promote it in the army, so as to strengthen the military prestige of our Great Tang."

Li Zhen's words were so high-sounding and eloquent that it was hard for Li Jing to refuse for a while, and he looked at Li Zhen with sharp eyes for a long time before saying, "How does your Highness plan to let the old man identify?"

Ha, hooked!Li Zhen was very happy in her heart, but she said calmly on her face: "The small flags in the students' hands are divided into seven colors, which can play the role of the Seven Kingdoms at most. Each color flag is divided into different levels and several handles. Each level represents a specific level. The number of troops, and some characteristic flags indicate strategies such as water attack and fire attack. This terrain and terrain board can be arranged according to the actual terrain. Participants arrange troops on it to deduce the progress of the war. This simulation fights each other, acting instead of fighting, if Li Xiang does not believe it, the students are willing to demonstrate a game with Li Xiang."

Li Zhen's proposal was to sell a big ax in front of Lu Ban, but Li Jing did not refuse, stood up calmly, walked to the sand table, looked carefully, did not open his mouth, but stretched out his palm as big as a cattail fan.

Hey, it's done, let's have a good experience of the ability of the God of War!Li Zhen was very complacent, without him, Li Zhen had put a lot of thought into this sand table these days, and had already figured out all kinds of offensive and defensive methods, it could be considered cheating.Li Zhen handed a small red flag to Li Jing, but she chose the blue flag herself, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, the red flag is in charge of defending, and the blue flag is in charge of attacking. The blue side has four cities, if the blue side's four cities are lost or all troops are lost, it is a loss, please forgive the students for being presumptuous."

Li Jing just nodded and did not speak. Li Zhen pulled up a frame on the sand table with a smile, covered it with a cloth, and blocked the sight of both parties. She took a deep breath and said, "Li Xiang, you can start now." . " Li Jing on the other side of the cloth didn't say much, just hummed to show that he knew.

In Li Zhen's previous life, she did not receive formal military training, but she read many books on military affairs. Books such as the 36 Strategies can be memorized backwards. Even Li Jing's "Weigong Art of War" that has not yet been officially written I've read it before, but of course it's just an incomplete version. As for strategy games, that's Li Zhen's favorite. Things like "Three Kingdoms" and "Grand Strategy" are very smooth. At this time Facing a generation of military gods, he did not show any stage fright. He quickly picked up the flag and set up a formation on the sand table.

Aha, the old man really chose the shrinking defensive formation of defending the center and attacking. Hehe, there are not many troops on the front line, and most of them are hiding. Hehe, let's see how we can force out your old main force.As soon as the curtain was drawn back, revealing the entire frontline layout of the Red Army, Li Zhen was overjoyed when he saw it. He picked up the flag and began to dispatch troops. In the blink of an eye, they went down to the two cities and "cut off the red party's 14 people under their horses", and then split into a joint attack, killing and rushing to the main city of the red party. The blocking force was either defeated or wiped out, and the momentum was very strong. Of course, Li Zhen did not forget to leave some covering troops along the way to ensure the safety of the food road and the rear. Just like that, [-] troops gathered on the red side. Under the main city, there was a stance to wipe out the red side in one breath. On the other hand, Li Jing's red side seemed to be passively beaten everywhere, the main force continued to shrink, and suffered heavy losses along the way. In the end, [-] remnants were trapped in the main city, posing a final decisive battle As for the other troops, there are bumps in the east and lumps in the west, which are very sporadic.

Kill you while you are sick!Seeing that Li Jing's troops were relatively concentrated in the main city, Li Zhenke launched a strong attack honestly. According to a fixed casualty ratio (2:!), Li Zhen kept exchanging Li Jing's defending troops, killing When he got excited, his little face was flushed red, and when he saw that the main city was about to be taken, Li Jing suddenly opened the curtain completely, revealing his hole cards—but seeing the [-] elite soldiers in Li Jing's hands Suddenly appearing on the right side of Li Zhen, he didn't go to relieve the siege of the main city at all, and quickly marched towards the logistics logistics center set up by Li Zhen, but the scattered troops who were originally scattered in the east and west suddenly followed. It was as if he had come back to life, but with just a little mobilization, he blocked the troops that Li Zhen sent back to rescue. When Li Zhen frantically killed the stragglers who stood in the way, his own rear battalion had already been taken away, and Li Jing did not return at all. Saved his own main city, and followed Li Zhen's path to the hinterland of the blue side. Poorly, most of Li Zhen's troops had already been mobilized under the main city of the red side. They were powerless to stop the Red Army's attack, and it was too late to return to the division for rescue. Besides, they couldn't move without food and grass.

Depend on!I'm fighting! Li Zhen saw that the situation was not good, so he simply didn't go to rescue the hinterland, and went all out to attack the main city of the red side, intending to take down the main city of the red side, and then make plans after obtaining supplies and a foothold At that time, they can still rely on their relative advantages in military strength to capture the five cities of the red side.It's a pity that this wish was still in vain. When Li Zhen's superior force was about to capture the main city of the red side, a fire broke out, and the red side who defended the city hung up a flag to indicate the fire—the remaining troops of the red side actually set fire to it. Burned down the main city!Although the 6 red troops defending the city were annihilated, the city was destroyed, and Li Zhen's main army had no food, not to mention no food, and even lost ground.

Eh, that's okay?Cheating, this is cheating!Li Zhen was so pissed off, she wanted to yell and curse, but when she thought about it again, she seemed to be the one who cheated, and suddenly softened like a deflated ball, her face flushed and a white flag was hung up to signify defeat. The child's despondency.

"Very good." Li Jing got up, said something with a flat face, paused, and asked suddenly: "Muxiu is bound to be destroyed by the wind in the forest, what can I do?"

Um?What do you mean?Li Zhen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood what Li Jing was talking about—the first sentence "very good" refers to the fact that the sand table props are very practical, and the second sentence is to ask Li Zhen what plans she has in the future. Zhen's current situation is already a big hit, not to mention that those new furniture are already making a lot of money, and printing is not only making a lot of money, but also being famous all over the world. Then presenting the sand table soldier performance props, the fame will be unparalleled for a while, and it is inevitable to cause the dissatisfaction of other brothers, and it is difficult to avoid the situation of being jealous or even being plotted against.

This question is very sharp, but it is a question that cannot be avoided. It is not that Li Zhen has not thought about this aspect, but he believes that as long as he does not engage in those clique-forming activities, he should not be with him. That kicker seized the heirloom party to start a conflict, but well, I know what I said, but I can't say it like that, but the old man has already asked, so I have to answer it?Li Zhen was silent for a while, then said calmly: "Gou Li's country lives and dies, how can we avoid it because of blessings and misfortunes?"

Yes, Li Zhen's words plagiarized Lin Zexu's poem, but Li Jing was shocked. With Li Jing's knowledge, it is naturally clear that this sentence comes from "Zuo Zhuan" Zheng Guozi said "Gou benefit the community, and life and death are based on it." ", but the original text is not as powerful as Li Zhen's sentence. For a while, my mind was in a trance, and I muttered in my mouth: "If a country lives and dies to benefit the country, why should it avoid it because of good fortune?" , After a long time, he glanced at Li Zhen, and said lightly: "Bring the "Sword of the Ape Lord" tomorrow morning." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and left the study.

What?What is the "Sword of the Ape"?Why does this name sound so familiar, could it be the "Book from Heaven"?Li Zhen didn't want to understand the meaning of Li Jing's words for a moment, she was stunned on the spot, and even forgot to salute Li Jing when she went out.Hong Fu Nu smiled, walked up to Li Zhen who was still in a daze, patted Li Zhen on the shoulder and said, "Your Highness, please go back, Master Xiang promised to teach you the art of war and martial arts."

What?Cool!It's done!Li Zhen was overjoyed and almost jumped up, wishing to shout out a few words to vent the joy in her heart, but well, it was just thinking about it, Li Zhen was not so superficial, so she quickly took a deep breath In a low tone, he forced himself to suppress the excitement in his heart, and bowed respectfully to the red-haired girl: "Mrs. Xie made a point, the student understands, so I will leave."

"Well, let's go." Hong Fu Nu was very satisfied with Li Zhen's calmness, and looked at Li Zhen's leaving back, with an appreciative smile on her face...
