I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 446 Zhiyao Godson
It is nothing more than presupposing two choices. No matter which proposal Zhiyao agrees to, Zhikai who proposes the option will never lose money.

For this kind of cunning, Zhiyao is not so sure about good or bad, but as a father, she feels family affection.

If she deliberately chooses, Zhiyao actually hopes that Zhikai will be a conservative king.

For anyone to create an empire, the most important thing is the second generation.The first generation fights the country, and the second generation guards the country. There is no better way of inheritance than this.

After the birth of a country, the second generation of kings is often the most dangerous period when they are in office, because not all heroes and enemies of the first generation may die.

Heroes will not only lie in the credit book and act recklessly, but also the most likely to appear powerful officials.If the first generation of kings still got some kind of Tuo Gu minister, it would be a pit for the successor king to die.

The enemy can't fight against the first generation, and it may be more than enough for them to hide in the dark to calculate the second generation, and with the help of those heroes to some extent, it is very likely that a little fuel will make the country become cloudy.

Of course Zhiyao hopes that Zhikai understands the military, so as not to make a wrong judgment if he doesn't know anything about the military, and even needs to use the army but doesn't know how to use it.

On the other hand, Zhiyao hopes that Zhikai will not be obsessed with fighting, and even deeply understand what it means not to provoke a war easily.

At any time, a war can be started, but it is not up to oneself to decide to end the war.

Look at the examples of countries that can be passed on in an orderly manner after the establishment of the country. Most of the second-generation kings have little military achievements, and they have created benevolent characters for the second generation since the first generation.

Why should the second-generation king have a benevolent personality?It may be that the first generation killed too much, had too much authority, was too majestic, etc. In short, it forced people to breathe. Based on the principle of relaxation, it would be a good choice to relax in the second generation.

Therefore, the first generation of kings who thought of this, they realized the problem and understood the seriousness, and the first thought that popped up was to teach the prince what is the golden mean.

Many people don't like the idea of ​​the mean, and some radicals think that adhering to the mean is an excuse for incompetence.This is a complete failure to understand what the golden mean is, and how terrible people who learn the golden mean will be.

Know how to be a dick?One of the knowledge that must be learned is the golden mean!
"Come south with me." Zhiyao said.

Zhikai is somewhat disappointed, rather than going south to be a spectator, he hopes to lead the army alone and make achievements.

Zhi Yao could understand Zhi Kai's thoughts, and said: "At that time, you will be the commander of a 'teacher', and you can also gallop on the battlefield."

Who has never been young?However, when people get old, they often become the person they hated when they were young.

Zhiyao knows very well that just relying on oppression will only be counterproductive, and she is willing to spend more patience to watch Gu Zhikai grow.

Hope to have your own achievements, right?Young people will have this kind of thinking.

Zhiyao wants to keep Zhikai under her nose. When Zhikai thinks about what to do, maybe Zhiyao will create a good enough environment.

The reason is that Zhiyao doesn't want Zhikai to be obsessed with fighting. The problem is that Zhikai also has the experience of fighting, so as not to be in a hurry after contacting the monarchy.

There is such an example.

When the Qin army was invincible, Ma Fujun won a battle with the Qin army. Judging from the ratio of losses between the two sides, it really cannot be called an epic battle, but it is because no one can win. Qin Jun was defeated by Ma Fujun, no one cared who Ma Fujun's opponent was, only knew that Ma Fujun defeated Qin Jun, which created Ma Fujun's great reputation.

Mr. Ma Fu was rumored to be too powerful, and his son shouldered a heavy responsibility that he could not bear. What is even more tragic is that he met a full-level boss just after leaving Xinshou Village. How could it not be a tragedy!

Before that, what resume did Zhao Kuo have?Most of the time, he was the person in charge of the transportation team, and he went to Daidi to serve as a farm officer, and he had never commanded a large army to fight.

To a certain extent, Zhao Kuo was able to command hundreds of thousands of people and arrange everything in an orderly manner, which is really remarkable!
Just because he can command hundreds of thousands of troops, Zhao Kuo is better than most generals, all because he commands hundreds of thousands of troops.

The number "hundreds of thousands" is specifically emphasized because the vast majority of generals can command at most [-] to [-], and it is even more terrible to be able to command hundreds of thousands.

Note that it is an effective command, not the kind with a large number of people under his command.

Such a young man who just came out of Xinshou Village, he can even put the old general of the Qin Army, Wang Lu, into a panic, so that Qin Guo had to dispatch Bai Qi to rescue him?Just ask, is it really incompetent for a young man who commanded hundreds of thousands of troops for the first time to achieve that level?
After the end of the spring sowing, the army of the original country assembled in "Puyang".

Prior to this, Zhiyao first took Zhikai to the east of "Handan", which is the later Fei Township, to inspect the spring sowing situation.

It is not the first time for Zhikai to inspect the main production areas of Zhishi, but it is the first time for him to follow his father Zhiyao.

During the inspection period, Zhiyao repeatedly emphasized the importance of food to Zhikai, extending to why Zhishi's first five-year plan was implemented, and how important the split second five-year plan was.

Food is of course very important, not purely for the army. Once there is a food shortage, the country's turmoil will also begin.

At present, the largest grain-producing area in the original country is near "Handan", which was completely developed by the Zhi family.

There are also two relatively large grain-producing areas in Yuanguo, "Wen" and "Yuan".

In the past, only a "warm" land created an extremely tyrannical Que clan, who used [-] to [-] troops at any time and never suffered from food shortages.

The "original" land is actually the old land of the original country, but it is too old.

As one of the important grain-producing areas in Yuan Country, "Yuan" land slightly lost to "Wen" land in terms of grain production, and it was one of Fan's fiefdoms for a long time.

The Zhi family restored the original country, which added a political meaning to the "original" land. Zhiyao should pay attention to it and not ignore it, otherwise there should be stains on the legal system, but the term "Land of Longxing" is very Ridiculous.

When the two father and son came to "Puyang", about [-] troops had already been stationed outside the city, and the camp was mainly located at the west gate of the city.

"Your Majesty!"

All the ministers greeted Zhiyao and saluted when they saw each other.

The army still stayed in the camp and did not form a line to greet them.

Zhiyao looked up at the sky and said, "Let the army leave the camp."

Is this not happy with the grand welcome?The ostentation is not just the ostentation. In fact, it is often necessary to specially engage in the ostentation, such as artificially creating majesty.

The current situation is that Zhiyao wants to teach Zhi a lesson.

Cheng Shuo, who was in charge of the Central Committee, saluted and responded, "No!"

Zhong Sima is one of the nine ministers of the original country. From being in charge of the country's official titles under the Zhou ritual system, assisting the government and assisting the country, he has become the role of supervising military law, and also serving as the supervisor of the country's prison. Complement each other.

First, one camp heard the sound of drums, and then the wind brought the sound of war drums being beaten in other directions, and the sound of war drums echoed throughout the field.

The soldiers who heard the sound of the drum, no matter what they were doing before, arranged their uniforms as quickly as possible, brought their weapons, and lined up with Pao Ze in the aisle in front of the assigned tent.

Then, there will be soldiers standing in front of the tents, and then the officers will come and take them to the school grounds to assemble.

A tent is actually made up of a team, which means that each tent sleeps six people.

Why are there six people?Five soldiers and the corporal of the corps.

Zhiyao has not made any changes to the military organization for the time being, and in fact there is no need to change it. As a military-oriented state, the Jin State is already very mature in its organization. It has been proven to have an advantage in the organization with that organization to deal with the current war. , Why bother to modify it in order to show its maverick.

The drums sounded less than sixty times, and the first team came out from the open gate. They were cavalry riding on horses, and immediately scattered to other places after leaving the camp.

At the 120th sound, groups of soldiers came out of the battalion in an organized manner, and the huge formation was slowly lined up.

"Every battle must send out scouts to patrol the surroundings and monitor within thirty miles." Zhiyao said.

Zhikai read military books!

In other words, Zhiyao wrote a lot of military training methods and common sense about using soldiers, and the only person who can see it is Zhikai.

In the types of military works published?The military books written by Zhiyao are more in line with the current era, that is, they are large and broad, with more strategy chapters, but not much chapters on tactics, some mountains and rivers and terrain chapters, and none of the military training chapters.

Most of Sun Tzu's "Thirteen Chapters of the Art of War" also talks about strategy, and then emphasizes the importance of mountains and rivers to the use of troops, and there are also chapters that involve people's hearts. There is a few articles about the use of tactics, and some of them are related to military training.

Sima Rangju's art of war is more interesting, emphasizing the importance of military law to the army, and the key is the wealth mentioned in the text.In fact, there is nothing wrong with it. The military discipline of the army is strict, and the soldiers are armed to the teeth. If these two points can be achieved, it is undoubtedly a strong army.

Who is Zhikai?He wanted to read military books. He could read works by contemporary military masters such as Zhiyao, Sun Wu, and Sima Rangju. Each book contained the author's thoughts and views on the use of troops.

Of course, the same kind of knowledge can be learned by different people, and what kind of nutrition can be absorbed depends on personal perception.

Now, from the perspective of Zhikai's assembled army, the army has the bright colors of Zhiyao.

how to say?It can be summed up like "It's as fast as the wind, as quiet as the forest, as aggressive as the fire, as immovable as the mountain".

"Father's use of troops has long been accomplished. I asked the lieutenant and the lieutenant, and they used many of his father's battle examples in their military books." Zhikai looked at Zhiyao's side face, his eyes were full of admiration.

In fact, it should be that Zhiyao borrowed from the "ancients" when using his troops.And a considerable number of "ancient people" used soldiers based on the military ideas of Sun Wu or Sima Rangju.

In addition, Zhiyao often communicates with Sun Wu or Sima Rangju, and there must be shadows of each other.

In Zhikai's view, Sun Wu or Sima Rangju's learning from Zhiyao may be caused by a son's worship of his father?
The army began to perform martial arts.

To put it bluntly, it is to change and re-arrange under Zhiyao's orders one after another.

"You come." Zhiyao handed the Lingqi to Zhikai.

Lingqi is a kind of thing with a pole about one meter long and a triangular flag. The color of each flag is different. If you pay attention to it, you can even embroider "divine beast" on it.

When the commander holds this kind of command flag, some people are watching this side specially. They will see what color flag the commander is holding and what kind of waving movements he makes, and then pass on the relevant instructions.

In combat with cold weapons, it is common practice to use "sound" and "color" to convey instructions. "Sound" needs the messenger to find the person who accepts the order to issue it. What color represents which command.

During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, the army would carry hounds, saying "sensual dogs and horses" is not necessarily a decadent lifestyle of indulgence, but also a display of fighting iron horses.

Zhi Kai didn't seem to be unfamiliar, and he manipulated the army to perform martial arts with a serious expression.

In fact, it is the standing army of the Zhi Clan, which can change formations according to the commander's various orders, and it may be possible to switch to other troops, but the speed of changing formations and reorganizing formations is definitely not fast.

Zhishi’s standing army eats the rice of the army. They have a small training session every three days, and a big training session every five days. Small training sessions are not necessarily military drills, but heavy training is definitely military training. Many soldiers hear what orders , I know what I should do in my mind.

This operation of changing formations in a combat state?At present, the armies of the vassal states are all capable, all because of the prerequisites for enlisting in the army. They usually practice their killing skills, and they enlist in the army more than once to receive gifts, and it becomes a habit.

There were quite a few spies in "Puyang". They must have known about the big commotion caused by the Yuan army, but they couldn't be sure why the commotion occurred.

One thing everyone can confirm is that Yuan Country will definitely make big moves in the future, and since Chu State is also preparing its troops, it is almost obvious what will happen next.

"Food and fodder can be used by the army for half a year, and a steady stream of soldiers, armor and equipment will come in." Sun Wu will also go south this time.

There is a grain-producing area in the original country near "Puyang", and the local area itself has grain reserves, so it is not difficult to mobilize.

In the same way, the distance between "Puyang" and "Ye" is closer than that of "Handan", and the transportation of ordnance is also not difficult.

The reason why grain and fodder are transported first is simply that under the garrison state, grain should be stored earlier than ordnance.

"The vanguard of the Chu army has left the country?" Zhi Xuwu will also go south this time.

Sun Wu nodded first, and then talked about the movements of the Chu army.

Sun Wu is a national lieutenant, and he acts as a staff officer. A large amount of information will be sent to the national lieutenant's office first, and then will be screened and filtered before being sent to Zhiyao.

Therefore, Sun Wu is not alone, and the Guowei Department has a staff.

There is such a thing of course, that is, regardless of whether it is useful or not, every piece of information will be kept in duplicate, one copy is in the Guowei Office, and the other is sent to Miyagi for the Eunuch Order.

Now you know why the eunuch order appeared to be high and powerful in the Spring and Autumn Period?Because it is directly related to the quality of life of the king of a country, it also involves a lot of information control.

Half a month after Zhiyao arrived in "Puyang", all the conscripted troops arrived, and another vanguard took the lead, and the Chinese army where Zhiyao was stationed also set off.

They will go to the border of Zheng State.

Prior to this, the Chu army was divided into two groups, deliberately wandering around the capital of Song State "Shangqiu" all the way, and then joined the main force entering the border of Zheng State.

At present, about 22 Chu troops have been stationed near "Xinzheng", and there are still Chu troops going north one after another.

"The State of Yue has declared war on the State of Ju?" Zhiyao nodded when she got the answer.

Goujian did this because he wanted to avoid taking sides in the confrontation between the Yuan Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom, so why not take advantage of the powerlessness of the two current powerful countries to intervene and expand?
Another half a month later.

Zhiyao led the army to "Tushi" about [-] miles away from "Xinzheng".

Prior to this, a Chu army with a number of about [-] went to the "Hulao" to provoke, and the guard who was unable to defend the order did not do anything redundant.

"I thought there would be no peace along the way, but I never thought that the Chu army would not make harassment." Zhi Xuwu said.

Sun Wu said: "Our army is strictly organized, scouts are everywhere, and scouts are everywhere."

That is the answer.

The army is out on an expedition, strictly scouting the surrounding area, and repeatedly confirming the situation on the way forward.

Many times it is "I found you, and you also found me", and you should take it easy if you want to make some small moves.

Zhi Kai hesitated for a while, but still said: "There is no one in the world who doesn't know the ability of my father to use soldiers."

Zhiyao, who was watching the information from various countries, glanced at Zhikai, and then her eyes fell on a piece of information again.

"The Qin State raised [-] troops, and the Dai State raised [-] troops, and together they invaded the western part of the original state."

Yuanguo's investigation of the north yielded a rather strange clue. The Zhao family did not seem to act alone, and there was no sign of large army activities in the north.

"The reconnaissance cavalry has gone abroad for hundreds of miles to investigate, or is there no trace of the army's activities at all?"

Considering the speed of the cavalry for a short distance, Zhiyao thinks that Zhao Wuxie is messing up.

That was obvious. Attacking Yuan Country from many sides would draw Yuan Country's energy and strength far more than attacking only from the south and west.

They are a coalition with three command centers.

This is also one of the difficulties for a country to face many countries. There are only so many talents. Even if the troops and resources are sufficient, who will command which army is a question that cannot but be considered.

The coalition forces have multiple command centers, and each of them is a part of themselves, and the people who command the battle will also be the elite figures of their country.

In any case, Zhiyao has already made the deployment in advance, and any changes are after a problem may occur on a certain front.

The armies of Yuan State and Chu State faced each other about twenty miles apart.

The army brought by Zhiyao had just finished stationing in the camp, and envoys from the state of Chu came over.

It was Ziqi who came, and he was no stranger to the Yuan Country. When he saw Zhiyao, he didn't salute. The first sentence he asked was: "Yuan Country only sent [-] people, but Yuan Country is in a difficult situation?"

The subtext is that Chu State will come with an army of more than 30 this time, and Chu State is more like a big country in comparison.

Zhiyao doesn't know how to respond, it's really not Ziqi's words that poke the pain, sometimes there is a difference between the monarch and his ministers, you should pay attention to it.

A young man from the Zhi family laughed first, and then said, "Dare to ask, Chu Zi has become a barbarian again?"

Uh! ?
