Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 639
After drinking for three rounds, the spirit of wine came up, everyone's topics were not so scruples, and the chat was much more relaxed.

Wang Yandao: "When I was in Kaifeng Mansion, Jie Shuai was only a few hundred soldiers and horses, full of enthusiasm. At that time, in my eyes, Jie Shuai was a motivated young man. How could I have imagined that after a few years, he would have an army of [-] and become a commander in chief?" What about things in the world, it’s really hard to say.”

Wang Xiaolie said: "It's not only Zi who can't think of it, I can't think of it either. At that time, the Jin army was like a magic soldier, almost invincible, and anyone would be in despair. It's just that in despair, some people surrendered, and some people surrendered." People give up, and some people rise up in despair. They have tried hundreds of methods and endured thousands of hardships. As long as they truly serve the country and the people and gain the trust of the people, they will always find a way to save the country. Thinking back then, it was really touching!"

Cao Zhiyan said: "At that time we followed the commander in chief, how could we dare to think about it today. We were judged to be the king of the uprising soldiers, and we volunteered to join the army, only thinking of serving the country with death. Who knows that a few years later, the Kaifeng mansion was destroyed, and the second sage Beishou, There is no force in the world that can resist the Jinren. If Marshal Zong hadn’t stayed in the capital to comfort people, I don’t know what it would have been like. It’s a pity that Marshal Zong died to serve the country, and he didn’t live to this day.”

Wang Xiaolie nodded, and said in a deep voice: "It's not enough to be passionate and only want to serve the country. There must be a way to serve the country. If not, it's just a few more bones. We went south to Xiangyang, It’s a fluke. There are no powerful forces around, allowing us to easily occupy many places. When the rebels came, we already had an army. After several years, we finally have today.”

In Kaifeng Mansion, Zong Ze claimed to have millions of troops and won consecutive victories against the Jin army, but in fact most of them were not true.At that time, the direction of the Jin army's advance was not Kaifeng Mansion, and the Jin army that Zongze dealt with was only two to 3000 people.Facing two or three thousand enemies and claiming to have an army of one million, this world is really magical.

But at that time, the thousands of gold troops were really invincible.No matter how many soldiers there were in the Song Dynasty army, they could not form a joint force.The Jin army can go straight to the coach, and it is not uncommon for two or three thousand Jin troops to defeat a hundred thousand Song troops.Thinking about it now, it really has changed.

Zong Ze's role was to occupy the capital during the most difficult time of the Song Dynasty, giving the people all over the world the confidence to persevere.Moreover, under the comfort of Zongze, most of the forces in Kaifeng Mansion can serve the country.If the Song Dynasty at that time had the means of Wang Xiaolie, these forces might not be able to become a real army.It's a pity that once Zong Ze left, the power was scattered, and these people became thieves who disrupted the world.

During the Jianyan period, except for Shaanxi, most places in the Song Dynasty were like a vacuum.The people have no organization, and the government has no army. As long as you are brave enough, you can occupy a side with a team of hundreds of people.It was also at this time that Wang Xiaolie had his own territory.

Wang Yandao: "When I wanted to be Jianyan, how many forces in the world? How many people can persist until today? Like Li Cheng, Kong Yanzhou, Zhang Yong and others. In the past two years, the imperial court has either appeased or suppressed, and some of them have voted for Liu Yu. , and some became generals of the imperial court. Only Jieshuai can truly occupy the territory and become the commander-in-chief of a party."

Wang Xiaolie said: "I've thought about this question for a long time, and I didn't understand it until I went north to Luoyang. It is said that the Jin army is good at fighting hard, and they don't count casualties when they charge. Many troops were scattered by the Jin army. From the time in Xiangyang Since then, I have fought against the Jin Army many times, and I have never been dispersed by the Jin Army. Why? After all, the organization of the army is different. My army has been stronger than the organization of the Jin Army since its establishment. How did they rush? How about leaving?"

Wang Yan nodded: "Over the years, the generals under Jie Shuai have said the most, that the army is an organized violent group, and the core is the organization. I often hear this sentence, and it makes my ears callous. But after a careful understanding, it really is the same thing. Without organization, the army is a mess, how to fight against the Jin army? With organization, the same people have completely different combat effectiveness."

Wang Xiaolie said: "I only gradually realized the meaning of this sentence. The weaving is like weaving cloth, criss-crossing. If weaving well, the silk thread becomes a good cloth. If weaving poorly, twist seven It's crooked, it doesn't look like it. Those who command the army must be able to organize the army. To organize it, there must be qualified generals at the grassroots level. The two levels of commander and capital are particularly important. If they do well, the general will save effort Quite a few. When the military academy was first established, I did not clearly understand the significance of the military academy. After these years, I really understood the benefits of doing so."

Wang Yan said with a smile: "I was in Jinzhou, watching Jieshuai's army, and I can see it most clearly. Since last year, Jieshuai's army has gradually changed, and it has begun to have its own style, which is no longer the same as before. The army has completely gained the upper hand in the battle."

Wang Xiaolie nodded.Have a drink with everyone.

Wang Xiaolie is just an ordinary person, and he didn't know what to do from the beginning.Instead, in the process of doing it, try little by little, test little by little, and improve little by little.If you keep doing this, you will keep making progress, surpassing all the armies for several years.

This is the way the world is.If you think you know the answer from the start, it's probably wrong nine times out of ten.The real answer is to be down-to-earth, seek truth from facts, and find out slowly and patiently.

In this era, how to save China?If you open a history book and feel that British history is good, you can learn from it.I feel that the history of France is good and can be used for reference.I think Germany has a good history and can also learn from it.Even use your brain to combine these experiences and feel that you have found the answer, but in fact you have not found the answer.

A country falls behind in an era, and learning from foreign countries is not the way to learn.It’s not that if I see others doing that, I’ll do it too, so it’s okay.It can be said with certainty that it must not.Instead, analyze the history of your own country, analyze the reality of your own country, and combine the experience of others to find out where the problems are and how to change them.Understand what you want to achieve and how to achieve it.

Wang Ruohai said: "When I first arrived in Dengzhou, I actually didn't like Jieshuai's actions. Later, the situation forced me to follow Jieshuai. It took a long time to understand that many of Jieshuai's actions seemed absurd. It is a classic, but it has practical effects. Today, all that remains is admiration for Jieshuai!"

Wang Xiaolie looked at the crowd and said: "What do you admire? In fact, I don't know what to do about many things. It's just that for me, if I don't know, I don't know, and I don't pretend to know. I don't know what to do? Point by point Try it out, summarize it bit by bit, and try to do better. We have more experience, and we will gradually know things that we didn't know before. We have to try, sum up experience, learn lessons, and don't trust others. It’s easy to say, but hard to do.”

Wang Ruohai nodded.Yes, things in the world are not that complicated. If you don’t know, just learn, try, and change a little bit.Instead of standing up and saying I know when I don't know.Do this, do that, screw things up.

Living in the world, we actually don't know most of the things.As long as we are down-to-earth, with a realistic attitude and a scientific method, we will move forward cautiously, and we will always be able to try little by little.What I am most afraid of is that someone who is very clever does not know, and talks nonsense, making everyone think he knows.
