Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1633
Those who do something on the spur of the moment are often reckless, and most people will make a decision after weighing the pros and cons of something.

Huang Chengyan thought that Zhuge Liang was very smart, so naturally he didn't make a rash decision, but he still had to ask, after all, this matter related to half of his son...

In fact, up to now, the entire Jingxiang gentry system has been roughly divided into three factions. One is headed by the Cai family, or the pro-Liu faction. Of course, the word "pro" is naturally debatable; The one headed by Huang has a closer relationship with Fei Qian; the remaining faction is the neutral faction headed by Pang Zi. Of course, this neutral faction actually has some limitations.

Pang Tong has already served under Fei Qian, but Pang Tong is a follower. Although he is talented and has the name of the so-called young phoenix, he belongs to the branch after all. Second, Pang Shanmin also came to Wancheng to take over the order of Wancheng. The city is more or less a neutral zone, and more or less belongs to the imperial court, and does not clearly belong to which faction. Therefore, although Pang's attitude is somewhat ambiguous, he is still generally considered neutral.

In the pro-Liu faction, there are many interests fighting each other openly and secretly, and in the pro-Fei faction there are also some, but it is not as obvious as under Liu Biao. For example, the Ma family thinks that their son is good, especially Ma Liang...

But Huang Chengyan thought that although Ma Liang was smart, he was younger than Zhuge, and Zhuge hadn't officially entered the official position yet, so what's the hurry for that kid from the Ma family?
So when Zhuge said he didn't want to go to Guanzhong, Huang Chengyan was naturally a little surprised.Look, this radish pit is big and round, and it’s all prepared for you, and then you can’t say you’re going to squat... Probably that’s how it feels...

But Zhuge Liang has his own ideas.

"...My brother intends to go to Guanzhong..." Seeing that Huang Chengyan was puzzled, Zhuge Liang also understood Huang Chengyan's meaning, so he explained in a soft voice.

"Ah?" Huang Chengyan was stunned for a moment, and then he understood, "Oh... so..."

A person like Huang Chengyan who only has one egg naturally doesn’t care about this basket or that basket, it belongs to the type of buying and leaving hands, but for example like Zhuge, there are three, four or even more brothers in the family, so it is natural. Think about diversifying your investments and reducing your risk.

Just like many units in later generations have expressed that they do not accept couples sharing the same slot, it is also to reduce risks.The husband and wife influence each other, and maybe the personal grievances of the two people in the family are brought into the workplace...

There will be grievances and resentments between husband and wife, let alone between brothers?
In the current overall situation, anyway, Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang don't consider Cao Cao's side, because Cao Cao's attack on Xuzhou back then left a very bad impression, so if he wants to become an official, in fact, there is only left to either vote Yuan Shao had to choose either Jiangdong or north to Guanzhong.

Yuan Shao, of course, did not consider it.It's not that at this moment, Zhuge Jin has already seen through the fog of the future and the development of history, but because there are too many noble families under Yuan Shao, and a poor family like Zhuge basically has no place to stand. It's like the reason why Guo Jia left resolutely, unless he didn't have the ambition and planned to lay hands on others for the rest of his life...

Then comparing Jiangdong and Guanzhong, naturally Guanzhong is relatively better.

Therefore, it is natural and reasonable for Zhuge Jin to go to Guanzhong for a party.

So since Zhuge Jin has a high probability of staying in Guanzhong, of course Zhuge Liang would not be able to compete with his elder brother for a job. Whether it is in the concept of the gentry or in the social morality of the big man, it is a normal operation and there is nothing to say.Even if they are called ministers in the same palace in the future, as the juniors, they will avoid the elders a little bit, otherwise, the word loyalty and filial piety will always be somewhat indebted.

"My brother's intelligence, I don't dare to say it's the best, but it can be used..." Zhuge Liang said, "This trip to Guanzhong can also help the Hussar General... If you are not talented, you need to read and write more to increase your knowledge... "

"That's it..." Huang Chengyan didn't know what to say, "...it's okay, it's okay, let's wait two years before we talk about it..."

What Huang Chengyan meant was that when Zhuge Jin stabilized, Zhuge Liang would not be competing with his brother for a job, but in fact, he didn't expect that Zhuge Liang had other ideas in his stomach...

While he was speaking, Huang Zhong's routine training in the school grounds had ended, and the soldiers were brought back by the various ministries. Huang Zhong also ordered to open the gate of the school grounds, and welcomed Huang Chengyan and others in.

Huang Chengyan laughed and said, "Han Sheng, take them to have a look, don't worry about me..."

Huang Chengyan knew that Huang Ping and Zhuge Liang hadn't had much contact with military affairs. This time they finally came to Wancheng, and naturally hoped to gain some insight, so he said it directly, so that Huang Zhong would not have to take care of him.

Huang Zhong took the order and led Zhuge Liang and Huang Ping forward.

"Soldiers, important matters of the country, you can't play with them..." Huang Zhong explained as he walked, "If the two of you have public positions, you can look inside..."

In fact, this matter is like bringing a child to the company. It is not impossible to do this, and it is not necessary to drive the child away. Children, it is unavoidable that there is something wrong with letting children sit aside.

Zhuge Liang cupped his hands and said, "General Huang's orders are strict and strict. Liang admires them deeply. How dare you complain?"

Huang Zhong nodded, and then led them to the stage.

The platform is as high as two people. When standing on the platform, although the soldiers in the school field have dispersed and returned to the camp, you can still vaguely see the traces of sand and soil trampled by the soldiers in the school field. At the time of contention, the soldiers in the audience moved according to the order, and thousands of people were as one, lined up with swords and guns...

Not only Huang Ping, but even Zhuge Liang, who was relatively calm in one item, couldn't help feeling a little short of breath.

"The orders in the army are mainly based on horns..." Huang Zhong pointed to the drum horns and various flags on the general's platform and said, "When you hear the drums, you advance, and when you hear the gold, you retreat... You all understand this, but how to advance?" How to advance and retreat, this needs to be adjusted for the generals on the battlefield... These flags, one for each, plus the square flag, can let the soldiers know where to go... Except In addition, you also need to always pay attention to the physical strength and endurance of the soldiers, and you should understand the things that go all out and let go..."

Zhuge Liang and Huang Ping looked at the drum horns for a while, and then went to look at the various flags for a while. The two of them gathered together, chatting about something...

Huang Zhong looked at his own child, Huang Ping, with some relief and regret in his eyes.

"I said Han Sheng..." Seeing Huang Zhong's expression, Huang Chengyan leaned over and said in a low voice, "Now you are considered to have established a career. Naturally, it is better to have more branches and leaves for this family... Letter from General Hussars Among them, there were many questions about Han Sheng, and I sent you two concubines for Han Sheng... Both are the daughters of a down-and-out family in Guanzhong, who are well-educated and well-educated... This is also a good story for a beautiful woman, so Han Sheng doesn't want it No more excuses..."

Huang Zhong was about to say something, but Huang Chengyan held his arm, "Oh, Han Sheng, if you refuse again, what will others do? Besides, I am still working hard at my age, why are you embarrassed? What? That's it! Why, are you really planning to let your martial arts in this body be lost?"

"This..." Huang Zhong was stunned for a while, and finally sighed softly, "So, thank you General Hussars for your generosity... Huang Gong, Hussars have treated me very well... I really can't repay you..."

"Haha, what are you being polite about, they are all family, family..."

Huang Chengyan chuckled, he didn't have the austere appearance of a so-called patriarch, but it was precisely because of this that he had an extra affinity, making people willing to get closer without knowing it...

...Here is the dividing line where bare feet are not afraid of wearing shoes...

The influence and constraints of terrain and landforms on warfare are naturally obvious, and most people know it, but knowing what can't be done and how to use terrain and landforms to turn disadvantages into advantages, and even use them to counter the opponent. It is not the ability of lip service, but the ability to put it into practice.

In recent years, Liu Bei has collected some chapters on the art of war. Of course, he also talked about the importance of terrain in battle, and how to formulate a strategy according to the terrain before the battle as a coach, so as to form a local advantage to attack the opponent's strategy, but there is no One, or a chapter, talked about how to fight in such an area dominated by mountains and rivers...

In fact, in history, Liu Bei also had a deep understanding of mountain warfare. In the later period, he even specially formed a mountain warfare force mainly composed of ethnic minorities around Sichuan and Shu. It was established too late, and there was no specific record of the training process. As a result, Liu Bei gradually declined after his death, and never showed any dazzling brilliance.

In history, the place where Liu Bei trained the mountain army and gained experience was the Qinling area where he confronted Cao Cao.In this area, Liu Bei defeated Cao Cao's two large-scale attacks in a row, and finally established the title of King of Hanzhong thoroughly.And Cao Cao, the all-powerful military strategist on the Central Plains battlefield, was also scalp numb when facing the Sichuan and Shu mountains, and in the end he was left with the word "chicken ribs". He killed Yang Xiu, but made Liu Bei's dream come true. prestige.

In fact, Liu Bei had only just entered Sichuan at that time, and he had conflicts with the gentry in Sichuan and Shu. It was not about the same hatred and hatred. In addition, Cao Cao was also holding a heavy army at the time. Normally speaking, he captured Sichuan and Shu in one fell swoop and strangled Liu Bei's political group. In the early stages of start-up development, it is still very possible.

This is indeed the case. When Cao Cao led the army for the first time and approached Sichuan and Shu, the "number of policemen in the middle of Sichuan" once caused great panic among Liu Bei's political group. However, the result was that Liu Bei basically did not hurt any muscles and bones. It changed the image of Chang Banpo who was kicked out by Cao Cao, and became a man who could face Cao Cao face to face...

The second time was even more funny. Cao Cao and Liu Bei had a stalemate for several months. They dared not advance, and they refused to retreat. Then Yang Xiu pointed it out, and suddenly became angry...

If it can't solve the problem, can't it also solve the person who raised the problem? !

The two consecutive offensives failed, and Cao Cao also ruined the excellent opportunity to enter Sichuan and Shu, allowing Liu Bei to smoothly integrate Sichuan and Shu, completely forming a three-legged situation.

But obviously, the current Liu Bei doesn't have enough experience in mountain warfare, and he hasn't developed any skills that look like white yak soldiers. Therefore, when facing the Zoren mountain warfare, he behaved very awkwardly...

Liu Bei is now the same as Cao Cao who was stationed on Xiegu Road in history. He is unwilling to advance and not to retreat, and he is not reconciled to holding a bowl of chicken soup and shouting chicken ribs.

Therefore, when he heard that General Hussars had sent reinforcements to arrive, Liu Bei was overjoyed, and went out of the camp early to greet him. As a result, he waited for a long time, his throat was about to smoke, and he saw the wobbly approaching from the distant mountain road. More than a dozen, less than twenty figures...

"This, this is the reinforcements?" Zhang Fei stared round, "Is there anyone behind?!"

Liu Bei was also a little dazed, and said: "This... look again, look again, maybe these are just former military outposts..."

More than half an hour later, these more than ten soldiers came in front of Liu Bei, cupped their hands and said: "Sima Tangyu, the other department of the Shanzi Camp under Hushi's command, has seen General Liu!"

"Ah, I met Tang Sima..." Liu Bei smiled, "...but the army is behind Sima? I don't know when it will arrive?"

"What army?" Tang Yu couldn't help but glanced back, and then suddenly said, "There is no army, just us..."

"Wow..." Zhang Fei had been waiting for a long time, and he was already a little impatient. Hearing Tang Yu's words, he couldn't help bursting out, "Just wait? There are only a dozen or so people What kind of reinforcements! Could it be that the hussars are playing tricks?!"

Tang Yu's face darkened immediately, and he cupped his hands and said, "It seems that General Liu doesn't welcome me to wait... so, let's take my leave!" After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.

Liu Bei hurriedly stepped forward to hold him back, while comforting him, he scolded Zhang Fei for coming to make amends.Although Zhang Fei was still angry like a big puffer fish, he still listened to Liu Bei's words and stepped forward to make a bow to Tang Yu, which was regarded as exposing this matter to the past...

"General Liu..." Tang Yu didn't give Zhang Fei any good looks, but just said to Liu Bei, "General Liu and Li Shijun met to march into Dingze. Now that the general is not able to march, he is asking for help. If General Hussars sends an army to come , and I don’t know Li Shijun’s side... Even if the general wins Dingzhen, will he be able to convince everyone?”

"This..." Liu Bei was taken aback, but also speechless.

If you think about it carefully, it is also the same reason. It is agreed to rely on your own ability to see who wins Ding Ruo, who will be in charge, and now it doesn’t work, and it is called reinforcements. Then if Liu Bei really wins Ding Ruo, whose credit is this?
"That's why the hussars ordered us to come here, not the main support, but the main instruction..." Tang Yu continued, "There is also a team at Li Shijun's place. It is fair to not treat one more than another."

Liu Bei didn't have anything to say, he could only express his gratitude to General Fei Qian, who was considerate and even reasonable, but it could be seen that he was actually quite disappointed...

Tang Yu didn't continue to worry about it, he looked up at the sky, and said: "It's getting late today, so for the time being, at Maoshi tomorrow, I hope the general will lead some smart soldiers to come to listen to the lecture."

"Huh? Good, good, so good..."

Liu Bei saw that things were already like this, so he could only ask Tang Huang to advance into the camp with suspicion, and arranged to stay without mentioning it.

At night, after Zhang Fei patrolled the camp, he returned to Liu Bei's big tent, and couldn't hold back any longer, muttering, "I think the hussars are trying to be perfunctory... What can we do by sending these dozen people here?" Function? Can a dozen people win Dingze? Is this intentional? It depends on our jokes?"

Liu Bei was also thinking for a while, shaking his head with some hesitation, and said, "General Hussars should not be like this... rest, you will know tomorrow..."
