Chapter 615(1/2)
On the New Year’s Day, Yang Fan enjoyed all his tenderness.
At night, I kept telling the pain of parting with a few women, and during the day I visited several relatives and friends one by one.
In the main hall of Duke Wei’s Mansion, two old and young sat opposite each other, playing chess on the table.
The young man has an extraordinary temperament. At this time, his eyebrows are gathered, staring at the trend on the chessboard and racking his brains, but he is still at a disadvantage. His chess momentum is trapped tightly, and it seems that the situation is not good.
The young man is Yang Fan.
Although the old man opposite had a gray beard, his face was bloody and rosy, and he seemed to be in good health.
At this time, the old man was wearing a light blue linen, with a thin and tall figure, a complacent expression, and a look like a paranormal.
Yang Fan frowned and thought for a long time, and finally put the chess piece in his hand into the chess stocking beside him, spread his hands, and said helplessly: "Mr. Wei is very skilled in chess, so he is willing to give up the disadvantage!"
Seeing Yang Fan admit defeat so neatly, the old man stroked the short beard under his jaw and said with a smile: "Playing chess is like marching and fighting. Only by taking every step can one win every battle."
"But the world is unpredictable, victory or defeat is common in military affairs, and temporary failure is not the end. As long as you can summarize the lessons in failure, you will definitely be able to win in defeat. This is the best quality for the general."
"Of course, this principle is also in line with all aspects of doing things."
Hearing the old man's advice, Yang Fan was a little flattered: "When talking about how thoughtful people are, how many people can compare with Duke Wei in ancient times? Duke Wei's thoughtful words have benefited a lot, so I will always remember them."
The old man nodded with relief, picked up the teacup next to him and took a sip, obviously very satisfied with Yang Fan.
Of course, the reason why Yang Fan put his posture so low was that the old man was Li Jing, the famous Duke of Wei in the world!
In unofficial history, Li Jing, known as one of the "Three Heroes of the Wind and Dust", is a fairy-like figure.
In the real history of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing did not disappoint the title of the strongest in the army.
After all, most of the Tang Dynasty was conquered by Li Jing.
According to his ability, even though he has looked at the five thousand years of history of China, Li Jing is still a famous general who is ranked as a famous player.
Except for Sun Wu, Bai Qi, Han Xin and other famous generals, there were very few who could compare with Li Jing.
However, if you observe carefully, you will find that only Li Jing, the famous general, is perfect!
It is difficult to describe most famous generals in history as perfect. They are either too utilitarian or have low achievements due to their arrogant or conservative personality...
These famous generals have more or less disadvantages, but only Li Jing can use the title of "perfect"!
Looking at Li Jing's life, no matter his achievements in the army, his personality and his affairs, he is different from other famous generals.
Therefore, among almost all famous generals who can be called "God of War", his ending is the best.
Li Jing not only could live until he died of 79 years old, but also was highly treated by the rulers Li Yuan and Li Shimin.
Although he was suspicious of His Majesty Li Er in his later years, Li Jing decisively gave up all military power and lived in simplicity and finally achieved good results. He can be called a perfect person!
In fact, in order to prevent the master from being well-off in recent years, Li Jing has rarely participated in the affairs of the court.
People like Yang Fan who make enemies everywhere are even more avoided.
It was an unprecedented time to be able to speak up Yang Fan today.
Yang Fan hesitated for a moment, looked at Li Jing's face, and finally made up his mind to ask: "Duke Wei, my nephew has been struggling with something for a long time, so please ask Duke Wei to solve his doubts."
Li Jing raised his eyebrows, then stretched out again, and asked, "Do you want to ask about the situation in Jiangnan? Do you want to ask why His Majesty's grand plan did not conquer Jiangnan for his own use?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Fan was surprised and did not expect that Li Jing was so evil.
I just started a conversation and the war god could guess his thoughts.
No wonder Li Jing was able to take the lead in the Tang Dynasty, where warriors were everywhere, and even His Majesty Li Er, a broad-minded emperor, was extremely afraid of him.
It is not necessarily a good thing to be a person who is too smart and perfect.
Although Li Jing has faded out of the court, he is still strong and is even more aware of the situation in the world.
Yang Fan was impressed and nodded and said, "I knew I could not hide it from Duke Wei. This time I went to Jiangnan, my nephew was indeed a little uneasy. According to Your Majesty's character, it was impossible for the Jiangnan gentry to do anything wrong. With Your Majesty's control over the world, why would he be afraid of these aristocratic families?"
The reason why Yang Fan was confused was that he was afraid of conflicts with these aristocratic families in Jiangnan. If he did not take any action, he might not get the support of the emperor.
Although Yang Fan is a time traveler with golden fingers, it does not mean that he can withstand the counterattack of the aristocratic family with his own strength...
More importantly, Yang Fan doesn't want to be used as a gun.
Li Jing glanced at Yang Fan, pondered for a while and said, "The reason why Your Majesty let the Jiangnan gentry be allowed to be powerful and prosperous in Jiangnan is not only that the Jiangnan genius is powerful, but more importantly, these people have put a lot of efforts at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Once Your Majesty uses iron-blooded means to suppress it, he will definitely gain a bad reputation, and he will delay it again and again."
"Now because of your actions, Your Majesty has seen the opportunity to conquer Jiangnan, so he has entrusted an important task."
"As long as you can control Jiangnan and prevent Jiangnan from falling into chaos, even if you kill them all, your Majesty will only turn a blind eye..."
"Of course, this is just my speculation, and it can only be used as a reference. What should you do in the end is what you should think about yourself!"
These words immediately made Yang Fan suddenly realize.
Li Jing's three thousand elite cavalry rushed to attack hundreds of miles to attack Dingxiang, defeated the Turkic tent, and then led 10,000 elite cavalry to attack Yinshan again, captured Jie Li Khan alive, Jishishan defeated Tu Guhun, and killed Tu Guhun Khan Fu Yun. His land returned to the Tang Dynasty, which was invincible.
He personally conquered almost half of the entire Tang Dynasty.
In his life, he captured Xiao Xian, captured Fu Gongyi and pacified Jiangnan. He had such great achievements, even in history, how many people could compare with him?
More importantly, he knew very little about the situation in the world.
When Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan conspired to raise an army based on Jinyang, Li Jing dared to go to Chang'an to report to Emperor Yang of Sui!
Later, the incident was captured, and Emperor Gaozu trusted and entrusted the important tasks without reservation.
Do whatever you want, and move forward when you do it. This is Li Jing’s style!
Now that she is willing to give advice to herself, Yang Fan certainly believes it without doubt.
With Li Jing's words, Yang Fan was more confident about his next trip to Jiangnan and his mood became much better in an instant!
Thinking of this, Yang Fan said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Wei, for your advice, my nephew Minggan Wu Nei."
Li Jing smiled happily and said, "You, you usually see your actions as a stick, but you act without any leakage. You don't look like the character that a young man should have."
"But to be honest, you really have a good idea of training. Dingfang once told me how to train you gave him, which would benefit me a lot!"
"Whether you can succeed in going to Jiangnan this time actually depends on your own strength. As long as you have a team of elite soldiers in Jiangnan, no matter how many geniuses there are, you will never be able to touch you!"
"I heard that Your Majesty asked you to control the navy. Although the navy and infantry cavalry are very different in tactical terms, they will never be separated from it."
"As long as you train an elite soldier in Jiangnan as soon as possible, supplemented by the tactic of rapid advancement, you will never be in trouble and clear the obstacles in front of you."
If one method is understood, then hundreds of methods will be clear!
Everything in the world is generally the same, and the law of the jungle is actually the principle of fist.
These words seem complicated, but in fact they are the core - power comes from the barrel of a gun.
This made Yang Fan suddenly feel cheerful in his heart, and he was much less afraid of the unknown!
Yang Fan still admires this Tang Dynasty military god.
Although Li Jing was suspicious of the emperor in recent years and took the initiative to quit the military power, no one dared to underestimate the influence of this Tang Dynasty military god in the army.
Yang Fan originally thought that with his more than a thousand years of experience and golden fingers, he could watch the flowers bloom and fall with a smile, and sit and watch the wind rise and fall.
However, when he met someone with high IQ like Li Jing, he realized that he was actually not a big deal.
Some things are even far less knowledgeable than these people.
Although Yang Fan thinks so, Li Jing has never been proud of it.
Li Jing is a soldier who is fighting. He wants to charge on the battlefield, rush across the enemy's formation, and sleep in the open with blood!
If one day he died on the way to charge, then Li Jing would be the real Li Jing!
But now it’s like a little bird trapped in a cage, unable to spread its wings and soar, which is really a bit depressed.
After all, Li Jing has been lonely for too long!
Who has ambitions?
Who doesn't desire freedom?
Li Jing didn't want to be trapped in this prosperous and beautiful city, so he could only look up and see the wild geese passing through the clouds, eagles flapping their wings, and rotting their years and ambitions with their plants and trees.
Seeing that Li Jing was unreserved, Yang Fan stood up and worshiped: "Xiaoxian was guided by Duke Wei, and he could not repay him in this life. I hope Duke Wei will accompany me to Jiangnan?"
Yang Fan sincerely invites Li Jing!
However, Li Jing was ridiculous and scolded: "I finally felt light and I was so lazy that I wanted to be a cow or a horse. Are you thinking about it?"
Yang Fan was a little embarrassed and scratched his head and smirked.
Looking at Yang Fan, Li Jing stood up and said calmly: "Follow me!"
After saying that, he walked towards the backyard.
Yang Fan followed closely behind.
Looking at Li Jing's old but still tall figure, and the sharp and fierce spirit of the wind and clouds as he walked, the respect in his heart became stronger and stronger.
This is the style of the number one person in the Tang Dynasty's military, and he is far inferior to Yang Fan.
Carrying his hands, Li Jing came to the study in the backyard, picked up a book on the desk, threw it to Yang Fan casually, and said:
"I have compiled some of my experiences and experiences during the past marching and compiled this book. If you are interested, you can read and study them carefully. I want to learn from your methods of training."
