Confucian self-cultivation: Scholars start from Daqin

Gao Jing shouted loudly.

The group of people looked back and saw that all the people who entered the mountain had returned with full rewards, especially a deer. They were suddenly excited, and many people even secretly wiped their tears.

If it was just crying secretly before, when the bonfire was lit at night and the hot food was distributed to everyone, no one could bear it anymore.

The whole camp was crying.

While crying, he knelt down and kowtowed to Gao Jing's position.

Gao Jing also sat on the ground next to a pile of fire with Xiaoyan with a startled salamander, and waved his hands casually when he saw this, so he was not in the regular meeting.

Pulled out a mussel from the fire, broke open the shell, tore out the meat inside, and stuffed it into Xiaoyan's mouth: "Is it delicious?"

"Enen..." Xiaoyan chewed enthusiastically, and there was no time to speak.

Startled Salamander patted Xiaoyan's head and said, "You know a lot."

Gao Jing said indifferently, "I'm a Confucian student, so it's normal to be erudite."

Is it normal?

The startled salamander didn't delve into it, and said, "Now as long as you give an order, they will work for you without hesitation."

Gao Jing shook his head, and said, "It's not easy to live in the chaotic world, so don't just work hard."

"A person like you should become an official, and he will definitely be a good one."

"The officialdom is complicated. Maybe if I become an official, I will become a corrupt official."

The startled salamander said lightly: "You won't."

Just as Gao Jing was talking, he saw an old man bringing a few young people over, kneeling in front of him, with his forehead on the ground, but his hands raised high.

In his hand was a piece of meat, a carcass, the tastiest cut of a deer.

Gao Jing raised his eyebrows, got up to take it, and said, "Okay, go to eat quickly, rest after eating, the rest of the time will not be easy."

The old man burst into tears, and said hoarsely: "Benefactor, you said that you want to lead us to find a way to survive. At first, this old man was dubious, but faced with a desperate situation, he had no choice but to give it a try... This is the old man's crime, please be punished by the benefactor!"

"Get up quickly, and don't call me a benefactor, I'm not used to it." Gao Jing stretched out his hand to pull him up, and said: "Kneeling to me at such an old age, I'm afraid that my life will be shortened."

The old man suddenly said nervously: "No, no... If it hurts the benefactor... Sir, I will die forever..."

"OK OK."

Gao Jingyang held the candied deer in his hand and said, "Remember to leave a few people to watch the night after eating, and let the rest have a good rest. From tomorrow onwards, there will be no free time."

"The benefactor has an order, and we will obey it!".

No.17 Chapter Army Formation

In the original plot, Han Xin led more than 1 people to cut down a large forest in one night, and then used these trees to build a trestle bridge between the cliffs.

Not only that, but the trestle bridge was disguised like a valley path, so that a veteran on the battlefield like Wang Ben couldn't tell it apart. He walked on the trestle bridge with [-] armored cavalry, as if walking on flat ground.

No matter how you look at it, it is unscientific. Even if modern people use modern machines, they will not be able to build it overnight.

So when it comes to fantasy worlds, there is really no need to talk about science!

……

More than half a month later, a Wubao stood up at the foot of the mountain. Outside the Wubao, it was being leveled and the land was being reclaimed to grow corn and other food.

The dock is built on flat ground, surrounded by walls, with doors open front and back, watchtowers are built in the dock, and turrets are built at the four corners, which is slightly like a city system.

This is Gao Jing's imitation of the Wubao in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and the commander built it.

This kind of Wubao, during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, when the Rong and Di thieves came together, those clans and township parties who could not move away from their homeland to other places relied on this kind of Wubao, "Gather together in Baowu, and defend themselves according to danger."

Even Dong Zhuo also built a Wubao, saying: "If things are successful, they will dominate the world; if they are not successful, keeping this will be enough to grow old."

Wubao is built on the mountain and guarded according to the danger. Although it is not big, it is more than enough for thousands of people to live in.

Even if thousands of people come, they can stay here.

Half a month ago, they were refugees, struggling to survive, but now they still have their own homes and their own castles. Everyone's complexion looks completely different, and there is enough food, and their bodies are gradually getting better.

"Rest, right! Align left, right, front, back! Stand for ten quarters!"

The 300 people were arranged in a neat square formation, each of them occupying a straight standing military posture, their eyes were concentrated, and their bodies remained motionless.

Bamboo stands at the forefront, and the same is true.

Zhujie was the strongest of the group of refugees, and he was very smart. He was jumped out by Gao Jing to teach some future military training methods, and became the chief guard of Wubao.

Just because he had received Gao Jing's instruction, Zhujie considered himself Gao Jing's disciple, and absolutely obeyed Gao Jing's orders. Every time he looked at Gao Jing, there was undisguised fanaticism.

More than 800 adults were divided into three groups, and each group needed to receive two hours of training every day. During the rest of the time, one group went into the mountains to collect food, and the other group cultivated land outside.

Not only men, but even some strong women will participate.

If you want to be qualified to survive in this chaotic world, you must be able to fight and dare to fight, regardless of gender!

Not far away, Gao Jing squatted on the ground, scratching something on the ground with a branch.

The startled salamander watched the army formation silently for a while, then brought Xiaoyan to Gao Jing's side, and said, "Do you still know the art of war?"

"Confucian disciples, it's normal to be more knowledgeable." Gao Jing said casually without raising his head.

Xiaoyan squatted down, looked at the ground, and asked, "Brother, what are you drawing?"

Gao Jing reached out and touched her head, and said, "I want to create a battle formation."

Xiaoyan asked curiously: "Why do you want to create? Isn't it in your book?"

These days, Xiaoyan has clearly realized one thing, that is, there is everything in my brother's book!

Gao Jing smiled helplessly: "But there is no one that can make 800 people capable of fighting against the army... There used to be, but it has been lost."

The legendary trapping camp can achieve "every attack is invincible" with 800 people.

"Use 800 people to fight against the army..." Startled Salamander said in a complicated tone, "Even if you are in vain, you can't do it, right?"

"So we need a formation."

Gao Jing looked up at the startled salamander, still pleasing to the eye: "If 800 people are scattered into the army, naturally there is only a possibility of being submerged, but what if they form an army formation?"

As he said that, Gao Jing drew a circle and said: "A stone dropped into the water seems to be submerged by water, but in fact only the surface is in contact with the stone, and more water cannot touch the stone at all.

The same principle, no matter how many enemies there are, once a battle formation is formed, only a small number of enemies need to be faced, and more can only be watched from the outside. "

The startled salamander said: "I don't know how to fight on the battlefield, but I know that human physical strength is limited."

Gao Jing smiled and said: "Counting men, women, old and children, there are only more than 1000 people in total, do you really expect others to send tens of thousands, 10,000+, hundreds of thousands of troops to encircle and suppress?

Three to five thousand would be a big deal, as long as it could kill [-]% of them, it would be enough. "

The startled salamander heard the meaning of Gao Jing's words, was startled, and said, "You mean to fight?"

Gao Jing said in a cautious tone: "It can be avoided, but this battle must be fought. This is a battle for their survival!"

The startled salamander was silent for a moment, and asked, "When will we fight?"

"almost."

Gao Jing dropped the branch, stood up and stretched: "We'll fight when we get back, and we'll be able to leave after we're done."

The startled salamander asked strangely, "Where are you going?"

"Sir... sir..."

A middle-aged man trotted over, his face full of excitement: "Sir, it's out."

His name is Hou, and he was specially selected by Gao Jing to lead people to refine the salt mine, and now he has finally achieved results.

Holding an urn in both hands, he handed it to Gao Jing respectfully.

Gao Jing reached out and grabbed a handful of light yellow crystal powder from it, nodded and said, "Very good, how much can you make every day now?"

In Gao Jing's opinion, this salt was not pure enough, but looking at the startled salamander's eyes, he knew that this kind of salt was already a masterpiece for this era.

The middle-aged man said excitedly: "With such an urn, three urns can be made every day."

"enough."

Gao Jingjing nodded and said, "Take it and call Shansheng over."

Shan Sheng was the old man back then, who was designated by Gao Jing as the leader of this group of people.

"Yes, sir."

After he left, Gao Jing smiled and said to the startled salamander, "Would you like to visit the owner of this land with me?"

Startled salamander nodded, before asking: "Why do you want to visit him?"

"After all, this is other people's land. We are stealing it. We should tell people about it."

Gao Jing twisted his neck, relaxed his body, and said, "And you haven't noticed that there are many people around recently?"

"Eyeliner?"

"I can't talk about it, it's just that there are a group of people in my house suddenly, so I have to investigate clearly."

The startled salamander seemed to have thought of something, and said, "So you plan to use salt in exchange for the lord's permission to live here?"

"Do not."

Gao Jing smiled mysteriously, and said, "I plan to sell the salt to the lord, use it to buy weapons and armor, and come back to fight the lord!"

Startled salamander: "...".

Chapter 18 The Exchange of the Gentlemen

Confucianism emphasizes "self-cultivation, family harmony, state governance, and world peace".

There is no need to say more about self-cultivation.

Qi family, the "family" here is not a family of three as modern people default, but "everyone".

In the primitive period, a tribe was a "family", and many tribes collectively referred to it as a "country".

Therefore, the "family" proposed by Confucianism refers to a large collective, and the Spring and Autumn Period was such a large collective composed of various vassal states.

Once a war is about to start, the conscription order is issued to the group, specifying how many soldiers and chariots the group will send out...
