Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 511 Sand Table
Li Shimin was very happy to learn that Wei Hao said he would not drink alcohol. He was worried that after Wei Hao drank, people from those aristocratic families would go to Wei Hao. There are too many things promised, but what should I do?
"Okay, don't drink if you don't drink, girl, come down, give me a hug from my father!" Li Shimin clapped his hands to his son, who immediately turned his head away and complained: "I won't give you a hug, Every time I hug for a while, my brother-in-law is still comfortable!"

"Hahaha!" The ministers next to him laughed when they heard it.

"You girl, are you going to your brother-in-law's house that night? Are you not going back to the palace?" Li Shimin smiled and teased his little girl.

"Well, I won't go back, I will play at my brother-in-law's house tomorrow!" Sizi nodded and said.

"That won't work, your mother will miss you!" Li Shimin immediately shook his head and teased his son.

"Then, then, then, brother-in-law, shall we go to sleep in the palace? You go to sleep with my eldest sister!" Sizi thought for a while, looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"I really want to!" Wei Hao said with a smile immediately.

"Stinky boy, that won't work!" Li Shimin shouted immediately, and the other ministers also laughed.

Then Wei Hao sat down, while Li Shimin took Wei Furong's hand and said with emotion: "Brother Jin Bao, there are not many people I can admire, and you are one. The snowstorm cost a lot, right?"

"Not much, just trying my best. I, I can't see those suffering people. We suffered before. Although Shenyong can make money now, in my heart, I still think about how the suffering days are endured. So, can you A little help is a little bit!" Wei Furong immediately waved his hand and said.

"Yeah, I can help a little bit. By now, the food in one of your storehouses is almost gone?" Li Shimin continued to ask with a smile.

"Also, Shenyong confessed that there are three storehouses of food in the family, and he said that as long as one storehouse of food is left, the rest can be eaten by the people. If there is not enough, they can still be bought. Recently, I I bought 5000 tans of grain, and those grain merchants are very good, and they didn’t raise the price for me when they heard that I wanted to buy grain!” Wei Furong immediately said happily.

"Yes, whoever dares to raise your price knows that you are giving charity to those common people! Your reputation is well known in Chang'an City!" Li Shimin immediately said with a smile.

Wei Furong laughed, and at this time, Wei Yuanzhao, who was sitting not far away, immediately answered the conversation and said, "Jinbao has indeed done a lot of good deeds, and that's why good people are rewarded with good things. , I guess it's still God's blessing!"

"Well, that's right!" Li Shimin nodded and said, he didn't let Wei Furong talk at all, because he was afraid that if he said it, the conversation would stop, and then he talked to Wei Hao, forcing Wei Hao to speak.

Wei Hao held Sizi in his arms, and kept his eyes on Sizi and Li Zhi. It gave others the feeling that Wei Hao was here to lead people.

"Shen Yong!" Li Lizhi came from behind at this moment.

"Big sister!" Li Zhi and Si Zi both called Li Lizhi.

"Well, are you done?" Wei Hao asked with a smile, Li Lizhi was going to decorate a new house today, with his mother and Concubine Yang.

"Well, it's all set up, now we're waiting for worship!" Li Lizhi nodded and said, and then he picked up Li Zhi again.

And Li Tai also walked over.

"Eldest sister, you hit third brother, and third brother bullied me!" Seeing Li Tai approaching, Sizi began to complain. When Li Tai heard it, he pretended to be ruthless and stared at him.

"Sister, hit him, he bullied me!" Seeing this, Sizi became even more excited, and pointed at Li Tai and said.

"Damn girl, are you holding grudges at such a young age?" Li Lizhi said with a smile, pinching Sizi's face.

"Hmph, who told him to bully me?" Sizi said proudly.

Li Lizhi immediately pretended to hit Li Tai, and Li Tai also pretended to be in pain, Sizi couldn't be happier, but the others are in a hurry now, they missed this opportunity, and they don't know when they can talk to Wei Hao next time, It is impossible to visit Wei Hao's mansion, Wei Hao never sees him.

After a while, news came from the front yard that the bride had come back. Wei Hao and the others quickly stood up and sat down beside them. Then came the worship service. Wei Hao sat in the back, holding Li Lizhi by the hand, Hearing about the worship, Wei Hao pinched Li Lizhi, and Li Lizhi pinched Wei Hao.

"Don't worry, Kaichun is us!" Wei Hao whispered in Li Lizhi's ear.

Li Lizhi heard it, and shyly slapped Wei Hao, blushing.

After the worship was over, the banquet began. Wei Hao sat at the table with those little princes and princesses, and did not go to those dukes at all. Li Lizhi also sat beside him.

"Shen Yong, those people stare at you from time to time, they want to talk to you!" Li Lizhi reminded Wei Hao.

"I know, don't worry about them, what's the use of talking now? What can you say clearly?" Wei Hao nodded and said with a smile.

When Li Lizhi heard it, she was right. There was nothing to say. During the whole banquet, no one dared to come to Wei Hao's table to toast, because this table was full of princes and princesses, and they didn't drink alcohol. Is the prince and princess embarrassed?

After the meal, Wei Hao went back and did not give those ministers a chance, but Wei Furong still drank too much, but he drank with those adult princes and dukes, and those ministers from aristocratic families wanted to toast, so they did not want to drink. No chance.

The next morning, a lot of things were delivered from the porcelain workshop. Wei Hao also took those things and went to a greenhouse in the backyard, where Wei Hao made some sand tables.

Those sand tables were made randomly. Wei Hao started to deploy his troops according to the requirements of the art of war, and he started to learn the art of war on the sand table until he considered all the details of the sand table. He commanded the troops to fight on this map. When there is no problem at all, Wei Hao will build up the sand table again, and then continue to deduce. For ten days, Wei Hao did not leave the house, but Li Lizhi and Li Siyuan came to see Wei Hao from time to time.

On this day, Li Jing and Li Shimin came over. When they also learned that Wei Hao was learning the art of war and what models he had, the two of them were also very curious, so they came to have a look together.

Wei Hao took them to the greenhouse next to the study.

"Where's your model?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"What model?" Wei Hao looked at him incomprehensibly, how could he have any model?
"It's the model for practicing the art of war. Don't hide it. Li Zhi told me everything!" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and said.

"Yes, Siyuan told me too!" Li Jing also nodded.

"Oh, you're talking about the sand table, it's not here, it's in another greenhouse." Only then did Wei Hao know what was going on.

"Then go and have a look, today is mainly to watch this!" Li Shimin immediately stood up, ready to go out.

Seeing this scene, Wei Hao decided to take them to see it.

After arriving at the greenhouse, Li Shimin and Li Jing were shocked. The entire sand table was very large, two feet in length and width, with various terrains on it, including all rivers, mountains and rivers, as well as well-made cities, models of various arms, and various siege equipment. Model.

"What is this for? Commanding operations?" Li Shimin looked at the model and asked in surprise.

"Well, yes, this is to imitate the terrain in the south. There are mostly hilly areas and many water systems!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"How to do this, come on, show everyone!" Li Shimin didn't know how to play, so he immediately said to Wei Hao.

Wei Hao began to deduce it on the sand table, explaining the conditions to them clearly, how many troops there are, how many people are there in each branch, how much food and grass are there, and how far the transportation distance is. In addition, the weather is also random.

Li Jing and Li Shimin watched Wei Hao's deduction, and the more they watched, the more shocked they became. This was simply a real battlefield. Although it was just a deduction, the conditions were very harsh, and it was a test of the commanding ability of those generals.

"Good stuff, really good stuff!" Li Shimin said while stroking his beard and looking at the sand table with piercing eyes.

"Okay, Shen Yong, come on, let's play a game!" Li Jing also said to Wei Hao.

"Yes, you two come to fight!" Li Shimin also agreed, and Wei Hao became interested when he heard it, and then asked Li Shimin to grasp the weather conditions. Only when Wei Hao and Li Jing asked about the weather, Li Shimin talked about the weather for the next three days. Otherwise, Li Shimin cannot speak.

Then it was Wei Haoshou's turn and Li Jing's attack. The two sides fought on the sand table. The whole battle lasted from morning to afternoon. At noon, they ate a few bites in the greenhouse.

According to the sand table time, Wei Hao defended for three full months, causing huge casualties to Li Jing, and Wei Hao's casualties were not small.

Then it was time to hold the lantern, but Li Jing still couldn't completely capture the area controlled by Wei Hao, and Wei Hao was at the end of his battle.

"In fact, I lost this battle. I have four times as many soldiers as you, but now the number of casualties is five times that of yours. However, in reality, your troops have suffered so many casualties that morale would have collapsed a long time ago, but Considering that it is a war of national subjugation, it is possible that morale has not been low. It has been a year since the fight, and I have not been able to defeat it. I lost. Unexpectedly, you have been at home for a few months, and your military skills have improved rapidly!" Li Jing touched With a beard, he said to Wei Hao very appreciatively.

Wei Hao's performance really surprised him.

"Well, in fact, I still lost. As you said, it is impossible for the troops to persist for such a long time. I also made some mistakes and failed to take the initiative to attack you. In fact, I had a chance to attack, but I gave up!" Wei Hao also He nodded and said.

"Well, yes, yes, Shenyong, send this to the palace!" Li Shimin sat there and said happily.

"Ah?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin in shock after hearing this.

"Get another one!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Father, do you know how long it took me to make this? Almost half a month!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin depressedly and said.

"Then let's do it for another half a month. It's okay. I'll send it to the palace tomorrow. I will play it with those generals!" Li Shimin said happily.

"I'll make one for you, it's not easy to move, it can be done in half a month at most!" Wei Hao immediately said to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin thought about it, nodded and said, "It's okay!"

"In the past few days, if I have nothing to do, I will come here to have a look. When the time comes, let your uncle and the others come over here to deduce together. Although this is not a real battlefield, it is indeed a test of the general's ability to command. Not good, the same defeat!" Li Jing said happily.

Before, he was on the frontline commanding the war, and he stayed in the capital all these years. If he wanted to fight, he didn't have much chance. Now that he has the sand table, he can enjoy himself too!
"Okay, this is good. This can help those young generals learn command skills. Pharmacist, would you like to get one in the Ministry of War?" Li Shimin looked at Li Jing and asked.

"I think it's okay!" Li Jing said immediately, cupping his hands.

"Shen Yong, you might as well get one for the Ministry of War!" Li Shimin turned to Wei Hao and said.

When Wei Hao heard this, he nodded. Anyway, it’s okay to get one, and it’s okay to get a few. When the time comes, I will get another one for Li Jing.

After a while, Li Jing and Li Shimin left, while Wei Hao continued to return to the greenhouse in the sand table, thinking about Li Jing's attack method just now, why he couldn't find a suitable attack opportunity just now, in fact, there were several attacks Opportunity, but I dare not, fearing it is a trap, now Wei Hao is standing in Li Jing's perspective, commanding the troops to fight, and wants to understand Li Jing's command method.

After one round, Wei Hao was very emotional. Li Jing is Li Jing. When attacking, he always took defense. The few opportunities that looked good were actually traps. Li Jing was ready to attack, waiting for him to attack , Fortunately, I held back. If I hadn't held back, I would have been defeated long ago. It seems that timidity is also good.

The next day, just after Wei Hao arrived at the sand table, Li Jing arrived with Li Dejian.

"Shen Yong, today you have a fight with your elder brother, the old man is the referee, Shen Yong you attack, Da Lang you defend!" After Li Jing came in, he said to Wei Hao.

Li Dejian was confused and didn't know how to play at all, but Li Jing began to explain to Li Dejian, telling Li Dejian how to play, Wei Hao also explained beside him.

After Li Dejian figured it out, he also became interested, so he and Wei Hao started to fight on the sand table, because Wei Hao deduced it according to Li Jing's attack method yesterday, and he also thought about some attack plans, so when attacking, Li Dejian was completely lost in the fight, and within an hour, Wei Hao wiped out the entire country.

Li Dejian sat there in a daze, thinking about how he was destroyed, while Li Jing sat there, touching his forehead from time to time. His son had learned from him for more than ten years, and he was not as good as someone who just learned the art of war. Wei Hao in less than two months.
