Han Dao world

Chapter 473
At the end of the exercise, Lu Bu arranged for his subordinates to rest and prepare for the expedition.

Langjuxu Mountain is located in Mobei. It is the place where Huo Qubing conquered the Xiongnu and set up stones to record his achievements.The emperor chose this place as the location of the first expedition, which had obvious implications, and Lu Bu did not dare to take it lightly.

If this battle is successful, he can not only make meritorious service, but also create a new method of warfare, which combines the advantages of Li Guang and Wei Huo, and will be famous in history.

After repeatedly instructing his subordinates to prepare well, Lu Bu returned to the camp and sent someone to invite Mrs. Wei back to the camp.

Mrs. Wei was also very happy to learn that Lv Bu was about to go on an expedition, and gave Lv Bu some rare encouragement.

Lu Bu felt a little regretful. "It's a pity that Xiaohuan can't accompany him."

When Mrs. Wei heard this, the smile on her face disappeared immediately. "Confused, how can Xiaohuan accompany you?"

"Why not?" Lu Bu was puzzled. "What a good opportunity to do meritorious service? If you win..."

"What if we lose?" Mrs. Wei interrupted Lu Bu angrily. "This is the first attempt, and the difficulty is far greater than you imagined. What you are sure about now is the confrontation, but on the grassland, the biggest difficulty is not to defeat the opponent in battle, but to find the opponent. If you can't find the opponent, you In order to survive, I will..."

Mrs. Wei paused, and gave Lu Bu a hard look. "How can Xiaohuan participate in such a war? After all, she is also a woman, and she will marry someone in the future. A woman, following a group of horse thieves to survive on the grassland, is it good to spread the word?"

Lu Bu opened his mouth, but didn't dare to answer.

He was no stranger to the life of a horse thief, and he knew what would happen in the face of life and death.

"You think things are too simple." Mrs. Wei stretched out her finger and poked Lu Bu's forehead fiercely. "Soldiers, the important matters of the country, the place of life and death, the way of survival, how can you take it lightly? If you don't take it seriously, don't go at all. Anyway, you have a title, take the time to give birth to a son..."

Lu Bu quickly interrupted Mrs. Wei, and said seriously: "The emperor trusts me and entrusts me with a heavy responsibility. How can I let the emperor down?"

Mrs. Wei gave Lu Bu a blank look, suppressed a smile, and poked Lu Bu's heart with her finger. "Then keep the book you have read in your heart, don't just talk about it. The first sentence of Sun Tzu's Art of War is the eyes of the whole book, how can it be a joke."

Lu Bu couldn't help being surprised. "Ma'am, I'm wondering too. Why did you study the Art of War? Could it be that you also want to be a female general?"

"What kind of female general am I? I'm too old to draw a bow or lift a knife. It's Mr. Xun Gui who has nothing to do and reads some art of war. I listened to a few words and thought it made sense. Tsk tsk, you are indeed a son of a noble family." , that is, knowing how to read and knowing everything.”

Lu Bu was very curious and asked Mrs. Wei to tell him about it.

He has put a lot of effort into reading recently, and he feels that he has benefited a lot.But after listening to Jia Xu's talk, I realized that my reading was really just reading, and I didn't understand the essence of it at all.Now that Mrs. Wei said that Xun Gui could read, she naturally wanted to learn two tricks.

Mrs. Wei told Lu Bu some things she had heard when she was with Mr. Xun Gui. For example, the first sentence of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" was ignored by many people as general remarks.Mrs. Wei was also like this at the time. After listening to Mr. Xun Gui, she realized that the first sentence is the outline of the outline and the eyes of the whole book.If you don't understand this sentence, the rest of the book will be in vain.

The most typical example is Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Kuo can memorize the art of war upside down, and his actual command ability is also very good-after all, he can command hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops to fight against Bai Qi for forty-six days, which shows that Zhao Kuo is by no means mediocre-but he lacks the awe of war and has The act of underestimating the enemy caused him to fall into Bai Qi's trap, resulting in a disastrous defeat.

If Zhao Kuo could have realized the meaning of this battle before, not to attack hastily, but to be more cautious, the result of this battle between Qin and Zhao is likely to be different.

After talking about Zhao Kuo, Mrs. Wei started to play freely again. "Tell me, if the Son of Heaven leads Bingliang's army to advance eastward at this moment, will he be able to defeat Yuan Shao?"

Lu Bu thought about it carefully. "There should be a fifty to sixty percent chance."

"You only see a [-]% to [-]% chance of success, but what the emperor sees is a [-]% to [-]% chance of failure. Once defeated, Bingliang's newly recovered vitality may be destroyed. Therefore, the emperor is not in a hurry to send troops, but Wait patiently until the [-]% to [-]% chance becomes [-]% to [-]% chance, then becomes [-]% to [-]% chance, and finally becomes foolproof.”

Lu Bu laughed dumbfoundedly. "Since it is a battle, there must be risks. How can there be foolproof?"

"So you are you, and the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven. Although you are known as the Flying General, you were defeated by Li Jue and Guo Si, and you had to flee to Kanto. After traveling here and there for several years, you returned in embarrassment. Guo Si won the great victory in Huayin, but he was not in a hurry to advance eastward, but wandered around to gather strength and wait for a chance to win in a single battle."

Lv Bu was furious when Mrs. Wei exposed the past, turned around and stopped talking to Mrs. Wei.

Mrs. Wei walked behind Lu Bu, hugged his waist, and pressed her face against his back. "Okay, okay, I just want you to be careful and not to be too careless. This expedition, to put it mildly, is your own future. To put it more broadly, it is an attempt by the big man to revive his ambition. The emperor will If the opportunity is given to you, you must seize it tightly.”

"Yes." Lu Bu shook Mrs. Wei's hand and nodded slightly.

-

The night is dark, and a single lamp is bright.

Liu Xie stood in front of the big tent map, motionless.

Although it has been collected and sorted out with great care, the map of Mobei is still blank. Even the mountains and rivers marked can't guarantee the accuracy, it can only be said to be rough.

Whether Lu Bu's expedition can go smoothly, Liu Xie actually has no idea.The blind optimism shown by Lu Bu made him dare not place too high hopes.Due to limited conditions, the items that can be verified are limited, and more problems need to be discovered and adjusted during the march.

It is almost certain that this expedition to Langjuxu Mountain will encounter many problems. If they can be recorded in detail, it will be precious information.But whether Lu Bu can notice these problems, and whether he can pay attention to them is really hard to say.

The best way is to arrange for Lu Bu to join the army. In addition to being responsible for providing advice, he must also record the things encountered along the way, the more detailed the better.Considering the conditions during the march and unable to write in time, this person needs to have an excellent memory.

"Is there anyone with a good memory in Shangshutai and Lantai?" Liu Xie turned around, walked back to the desk and sat down, and asked Cai Yan casually.

"Your Majesty needs a secretary who goes out with Marquis Wen?"

"Ah."

"Shangshutai and Lantai have people with good memories, but they may not be able to adapt to this kind of military life, and they may not be able to understand which things are worth remembering during the march and which things are not. It is better to choose one of Jia Shizhong's disciples."

"Who?"

Cai Yan smiled and remained silent.

After Liu Xielue thought about it, he understood what Cai Yan meant.

Huang Yi is indeed a suitable candidate. He is smart, well-read, and able to endure hardships. Jia Xu has praised him several times.

Of course, Huang Yi is a rare role model.

The children of the Huang family in Jiangxia can all serve the court and become talents with both civil and military skills. What qualifications do other scholars have to make irresponsible remarks?
Those who say they can't do it, not because they can't, but because they don't do it.

The reason why they don't do it is because they haven't suffered a lot, they haven't been beaten by the society, and they still want to use their three-inch tongue to persuade the public officials to pick up bruises.

"Call Huang Yi."

"Now?" Cai Yan was a little surprised.

"Now." Liu Xie said: "Ten thousand years is too long, just fight for the day and night."
