Chapter 112 In the Torrent

In the early morning, the sky was cold, and a dim and haze shrouded the sky over Taiyuan City.

In the Shabu Fort in the west of the city, it is a hot ** scene - Chu Tianya is training new soldiers!

Not long ago, in order to quell the riots of the exiles in the city, Chu Tianya suggested that the magistrate Zhang Xiaochun gather all the young men in the city and form a new army, temporarily under the "military patrol" account, and become a wing army. Now, this man is conducting a military exercise.

However, it is not so much that Chu Tianya is training new recruits, but that he is learning how to train soldiers from the class. In the final analysis, Chu Tianya himself is still a new soldier. How can he know how to train soldiers? In his previous life or this life, he has never joined the army. Although there is similar training in the police academy and the police force, it is still across the mountain. What's more, this is the era of cold weapons, and for him, there are tens of millions of mountains away.

Chu Tianya has never thought of making some high-tech "big killers" to turn the tide with his knowledge and ability to surpass the times. But these things are really easy to make. Among other things, even if he is still living in the 21st century, it is impossible to make airplanes, tanks, pistols and bullets, not to mention the scientific and technological level of the Song Dynasty.

Improving the existing technical level may be feasible. But the premise is to have some understanding first - it's a pity that from the first day of "coming to" the Song Dynasty, Chu Tianya doesn't even have time to look for flowers and willows, and there is no need to talk about studying science and technology.

So now, Chu Tianya has decided to devote himself to learning first, at least to understand.

Instead of Chu Tianya's training, he spent two bottles of Jiannan to burn spring bribes to hire a helper. The vanguard of the Shengjie Army is the general, Wang Xun.

There are short feet and strengths, and there is a specialty in the art industry. Wang Xun has been in the army for more than ten years, and there are always many things worth talking about. Therefore, in these days, Chu Tianya is basically inseparable from Wang Xun. Let's see how he ** new soldiers, manages his subordinates, how to arrange the camp, how to arrange the daily schedule and actions of the army, and even manage the logistics, distribute horses and medicine, and how to dig the marching stove, and how to keep the soldiers in rainy days. Details such as armor are all learned from scratch!

Chu Tianya, the commander of the army, completely regarded himself as one of the ten thousand recruits. He followed Wang Xun like them and slowly transformed himself from a civilian to a soldier!

Of course, Chu Tianya has to learn more than a hundred times more than ordinary sergeants, which makes him feel that time is always not enough, especially when there is an enemy siege outside the city, which makes him eager to use every second in half.

Wang Yu, a famous master, finally began to teach Chu Tianya things, but instead of teaching some marksmanship, but the art of war!

Wang Wei said that no matter how good a martial artist can practice kung fu, it is just one enemy, ten enemies at most more than a hundred people; if you really want to dominate the battlefield, you have to learn the art of war!

However, what Wang passed on to Chu Tianya is not the kind of mysterious military book "from the old immortals of South China" mentioned in the wild history legend, but the military masterpieces compiled by the current official of the Song Dynasty, "The General of the Martial Arts" and "Seven Books of the Martial Arts".

In the period of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty and Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty decades ago, it was presided over by the imperial court of the Song Dynasty, and powerful people were sent to compile these two military books, which occupied an extremely important position in Chinese military history. The former "General of the Martial Arts" is the first book. Although this book also has a lot of space on the way to use troops, its focus is on military technology - a metaphor, a detailed introduction to the military system and military organization of the Song Dynasty, and how to choose soldiers, including generals' ranks and promotion, and how to make the Song army. Changde's sword, gun, halberd and armor, how to construct the city defense mode, and so on. It is not so much a military art of war as a military encyclopedia of the Song Dynasty.

The latter "Seven Books of the Martial Arts" is closer to the martial arts in the pure sense. The so-called seven books are compiled from the seven books of Sun Tzu's Art of War, Wu Zi's Art of War, Liu Tao, San Liao, Sima Fa, Wei Liaozi and the previous dynasty's Li Wei Gong's Question.

These seven military books are selected from more than 370 more common and well-known military books in China from ancient and modern times, and then gather the understanding and annotations of these military tactics by many great scholars from ancient and present. It can be said that they have condensed the painstaking efforts of countless people for thousands of years, and can undoubtedly be called the most precious treasure of soldiers. .

Although Chu Tianya is relatively unfamiliar with these ancient "military tactics" and other things, like many people, he has only had some extremely abstract understandings, which are mostly from some divine TV series. But Chu Tianya believes that these things are the crystallization of wisdom and are worth learning.

Although he prefers to use the three-dimensional battle between sea, land and air to command a modern mechanical force to flatten the Jin Kingdom, he still started with the students before making the first bullet.

Both books are large, placed in a high pile at the head of Chu Tianya's bed. Not to mention the connotation value of these books, these books and paper alone are worth a lot of money. At first, Chu Tianya didn't know it. He Bo reminded him to understand that Song's books were not cheap, and they were all sold in terms of "Zhang". Generally, books circulating on the market can sell for five to twelve cents a piece - you can almost eat two deep-fried dough sticks and a bowl of porridge in Taiyuan.

Like the official masterpiece of "The Classic of Martial Arts", which is an official masterpiece with exquisite paper and exquisitely bound, you can buy a house with one book!

Chu Tianya sleeps with these two houses in his arms every night, thinking in his heart: it has cost so much money just to print books, and he has seen many records about armaments in the book. It can be seen that the Song Dynasty actually spent a lot of effort and less money on the military. In the end, the military has become the biggest short board!

In the final analysis, it depends on the military system itself!

......

From then on, Chu Tianya began to operate at full load, and there was no moment of leisure. At dawn, he followed He Bo to practice martial arts with Xiao Linglong. Then he went to Shabubao and Wang Xun to practice the new army together. After breakfast, he took people to the treasury and granary to inspect and approve the distribution of materials. When it was finished, he went to various patrol shops in the city, listened to the military situation returned by the four gates in the city, and sent people and labor to solve it as appropriate. Decide the problem; from time to time, Wang Yu or Zhang Xiaochun called him to discuss various problems; he went home in the middle of the night and had to read military books at night.

He felt like a sponge that fell into the ocean.

Of course, before going to bed, he has to spend some time talking about Xiao Linglong about his ideals and life. After experiencing all-weather busyness and fatigue, the period of getting along with Xiao Linglong seems to be particularly relaxed and happy, which naturally becomes the "golden time" he expects most and suffers most every day.

Chu Tianya often thinks that if it's good to go to bed and talk about ideals and life without conflict in time, then the time every day may be enough. He also several times he was ready to make this pure, noble and humane suggestion to Xiao Linglong, but Xiao Linglong is like a spirit fox that steps on the snow without leaving a trace. Whenever the hunter just points the arrow at her, she can always float away without dust on her back, regardless of the mood of the hunter who returns empty hands; Then the next day came as scheduled and happily repeated and looped this very inhumane small game.

Chu Tianya can only sigh, "Xiao Feihu", which is really worthy of its name!

At the same time, he determined that this aristocratic woman who had never left the cabinet was mostly a natural talent. Before she made her debut, she had already understood the true meaning between ** - what she couldn't get was the best!

Perhaps, another famous teacher secretly taught her the "Yufu Heart Sutra" - if this person exists, he will not be a second person except Xiao Ai.

Whenever he got up in the morning to practice martial arts, Chu Tianya, who couldn't sleep soundly at night, couldn't help yawning a few times. For this reason, he was reprimanded by Uncle He, and even beat him several times with a footing. Although the old man usually regarded himself as a servant in front of Chu Tianya, he was always respectful and careful. Once he changed his identity to become a martial arts teacher, he was quite strict!

Because Chu Tianya has just recovered from a serious injury and the foundation of martial arts is not very reliable, he continues to practice the most basic things. Whenever I see Xiao Linglong jumping around lightly on the plum blossom pile, or dancing the Taining pen and gun like a pear flower, Chu Tianya, who practiced the gun and couldn't move, I was jealous from the bottom of my heart!

"When can the young master practice Zhongping's gun to such a level, the old man will officially teach you the complete shooting method." He Bo said so, and then he sprinkled a mung bean on the frozen land, and personally stabbed it with a flat gun, and the mung bean was broken!

Try seven times in a row, all in the middle!

Chu Tianya is unconvinced. How can he do it without practicing for decades?

So He Bo asked Xiao Linglong to try it. Xiao Linglong pricked it seven times, and it was also the whole middle school!

"The foundation must be solid, otherwise it is useless to learn more." Uncle He smiled and said, "The princess has been in the middle seven times. The young master has to be twenty times in a row, and he can't fail once."

Chu Tianya was not convinced again. Why did she do it seven times? I have to do it twenty times? Her martial arts foundation is better than mine, which is unfair!

"If you know that others are better than you, of course you have to redouble your efforts!" In front of Xiao Linglong, He Bo said that it was very high-sounding; in private, he said, "If the young master can do it three times in a row, he can also practice shooting. But if you have an idea for her, you must surpass her in martial arts to make her really give in! Just like taming a fierce horse, you can't claim that you read more books than a horse, or recite poems better than it, it has to convince you! - You have to climb on it or press it to the ground to have a chance to tame it!"

"He Bo, your metaphor is too evil... But I agree!"

The wolf and the wolf laughed shamelessly and harmoniously again.

After so many days in the Song Dynasty, Chu Tianya was first unpreparedly involved in the torrent of history in front of him, and there was no time to buffer and adapt. Only now has he begun to formally understand and adapt to the current environment and era.

Although Chu Tianya is better than everyone in this era in some ways, he is also far inferior to many people in this era in some aspects. In troubled times, if you have a skill, you don't have to worry about the future and the way out, but most of those people belong to the "being used" family.

Obviously, this is not the positioning given to him by Wang Yu and He Bo, including Chu Tianya. According to the law of the barrel, it may not be the longest board that affects Chu Tianya's future achievements, but the shortest one.

Therefore, he was in urgent need of learning and making up for his shortcomings. The first task is to have a comprehensive and clear understanding of the current environment, including the living environment, military environment and political environment. From the overall situation to the details, he is so strange that he has to learn it all from the beginning.

As he said, since Chu Tianya has lagged behind others, of course, he has to spend more efforts to make up for these shortcomings!

From this time on, Chu Tianya regarded himself as a poor student who had just returned to class after taking a break from school due to illness, and began to make up lessons crazily. Almost every day, he feels that he is too "ignorant" and has more and more things to learn.

It is also on such a day that people around him can clearly feel that he is constantly working hard, almost at a speed of a thousand miles a day.

One day's painstaking efforts**, Chu Tianya wrote a famous saying of Mr. Lu Xun on the wallboard of his room - "Dissatisfaction is the wheel of upwards", which is used to remind himself not to be complacent and study hard every day.

I have just practiced calligraphy for a short time. In addition, I didn't know traditional Chinese characters for a long time. The negative and negative are not positive, but the weak overlap is simply weak. Therefore, his line of words provoked countless ridiculs. It was not only Xiao Linglong, but also Xiao Ai who laughed for a long time, saying that this line of words "it is simply detrimental to the image of Brother Chu's wisdom and martial arts in my heart. It's better to wipe it with lime water!"

"Do not erase. Two months later, I will write another line under it. Compared with the two, it will be clear at a glance. Chu Tianya, who is practicing calligraphy, said so.

Although Chu Tianya has never thought of creating a set of calligraphy like "thin gold body" from Zhao Ji, the emperor of poetry and painting, and become a generation of calligraphers; however, the word is a signboard, especially in the present soft pen era when there is no computer and poetry and painting are popular, if you can't even write what kind of intentions. Think about going out and saying hello to people. Practicing calligraphy is a basic skill just like learning the current etiquette and adapting to various folk customs and living habits.

If you want to change the environment around you, you must first understand and adapt to this environment, which is the premise. Chu Tianya thought so.

......

In Taiyuan City, where everyone is in danger, nervousness and fear are the main theme. Many people are worried about whether they can still see tomorrow's sun when a real woman comes to attack the city; some people are looking forward to the end of the war and the restoration of the peaceful life of the past; some people are fighting for the food and the cold. He racked his brains and even committed adultery in his winter clothes.

In the torrent of history, these people are like a group of crucian carp crossing the river, all down the river.

Only Chu Tianya is very "non-mainstream". Others are actively looking for shelter and food along the stream. However, he is struggling to go against the current, tempering his physique and increasing his talents in the collision with the torrent. He fantasies that one day he can go back to the source and find the one worth it. The dragon gate that jumped through!

Today, it is the eleventh day of the Jud's true army besieging Taiyuan City. There is still no arrow, and the two sides do not move.

As described in Gu Long's novels, the master will not shout and jump up and down, and as soon as he comes up, he will open his teeth and claws to scare people. Many masters stand still when facing the enemy - at first glance, the whole body is covered with doors, which is simply looking for death; but the real expert master knows that he can't find a flaw in his whole body. Whoever dares to attack him rashly is really looking for death!

The current situation is like that the two top masters are facing a life-and-death confrontation, and both sides are standing so motionless.

As soon as you take action, you will be judged, and life and death have been divided!

This is the first person in the two camps, which is a torment and a test, especially for the commander-in-chief of the other side.

The commander-in-chief in Taiyuan City is actually a group with Wang Yu, Zhang Xiaochun and Chu Tianya as the core. In this team, the division of labor and positioning of the three people are also quite clear and clear. Wang Qi is in charge of the real power of soldiers and horses, and directly leads the army to command the operation; Zhang Xiaochun is responsible for logistics and internal affairs; Chu Tianya assists from the side, and the main business is to make suggestions!

If this team is compared to a person, Wang Yu is like a bone body, Zhang Xiaochun can be regarded as blood and viscera, while the seemingly inconspicuous Chu Tianya is the soul!

In the camp of the Jurque, Wanyan Zonghan is not only a bone body but also a blood sdirty, but also the soul of this army. Those people under him, whether they are the fierce generals who charge or the counselors who make suggestions, have been refined into a part of this person, either fists, or eyes and ears.

Only the master Shi Li Ai is a special existence. Wanyan Zonghan respects and trusts him, and almost regards him as a part of himself.

The siege has beensieged for 11 days without attacking. There are already many people in the Juri-Jian Army who can't help it, and there are also some people who have a lot of complaints in private.

From the beginning of the uprising, it was not the fierce attack of the iron horse and the fierce wind, and everywhere she went, she was unable to be invincible. Such a "turtle tactic" has never been implemented. Everyone did not dare to point the finger at Wanyan Zonghan, who was as high as a god, so they all aimed at Shi Liai, who was planning.

The female real soldiers believe that the reason why this army has become so "cowardly" is that Wanyan Zonghan has been deceived by Shi Liai, a "pedanted literati". Isn't it because some bloodless eunuchs or such pedantic literati come to lead the army that the army will be defeated in every battle? Why did the wolf owner, who has always been domineering, also start to learn from the Southerners?

Therefore, although the whole army is quite polite to Shi Liai, the minister of Liao, on the surface, in private, many people can't wait to kill him with their own hands and drink his blood.

It is difficult for such a message not to fall into the ears of Wanyan Zonghan and Shi Liai. They all know that this means that the siege lasts and does not fight for a long time is not only that people in Taiyuan City are panicked and may make mistakes at any time, thus revealing a fatal flaw; the morale of their own army has also been affected, and their military spirit is floating!

Since we are already in the torrent of history, everyone's fate is to retreat if we don't advance. He is as humble as the prisoner-of-war slaves who carry water and chop wood in their army, and as strong as the high wolf master Wanyan Zonghan!
