Chapter 6 Women's Hero 2

Amaranth said with a smile and said, "The Wu people did not know how to cast swords. It was the State of Jin, which competed for hegemony with the State of Chu, that cultivated the State of Wu on the side of its bed. Not only did he teach sword casting to the Wu people, but also taught the martial arts to the Wu people, which turned the weak Wu state into a military power in just ten years. This art of war, like a good general, is a sharp weapon against strong enemies.

I know that the people of Jin taught the people of Wu to cast swordsmanship. I asked, "Is this the reason why the girl came to discuss military tactics with someone today?"

Amaranth smiled again and said, "I think I've said too far."

"It's okay. I just don't know what the girl meant when she talked about Jin, Chu and Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period?

"Our country's name is for Jin."

"Exact."

"Although this Jin Dynasty is not the Spring and Autumn Jin Dynasty, who knows that the Spring and Autumn Jin Kingdom is not possible."

"That sounds like this, the girl is talking about state affairs, not military affairs."

"State affairs and soldiers are one. The north was originally the north of the Great Jin Dynasty, and the middle was originally the middle of the Great Jin Dynasty. The Northern Expedition to the Central Plains and the unification of China is the long-cherished wish of the State of Jin to the kings and ministers and the people. There are many strong powers in the north, how difficult is it to unify? However, among countries, there are strong and weak. Since the country has been repeatedly subject to the various countries, why not seek a 'Wu state' on the side of the countries and make the northern countries overwhelmed by themselves?

"Indeed."

"This is a so-called surrendered soldier without war."

"The girl seems to be familiar with military books. However, if you don't fight here, it's not that you don't fight, but just that your side doesn't fight. It is not the same thing as the 'no war' in Sun Wuzi's military method.

"Ha ha" Amaranth covered his mouth and smiled and said, "With all due respect, the general is not a scholar, but he sees that you often stick to the way in the book and don't want to change."

Ah. This." When she said this to my face, I suddenly felt a fever. Although the girl's tone was soft and beautiful, she spoke very straightforwardly. She had learned something in the Qulou last time.

Amaranth continued: "The main purpose of Sun Tzu's Art of War is to talk about what is and how to be. Therefore, the so-called 'no war' refers to the failure of one's own side. As for other countries to fight and no war, what's the harm to me?

"Indeed." I said.

I really didn't talk much when I was young, but now I'm not a naive person. Today's almost knee-jerking conversation with amaranth has made me completely absent from the ordinary spirit of being good at thinking and discussing, and being insensitive to words. For what she said, it seemed that I could only focus on part of the attention, while the other part of attention focused on her smile.

"The State of Jin has never supported the State of Wu on the side of the State of Chu, but the State of Jin naturally gave birth to a State of Wu, that is, Sun En. In today's situation, there are powerful enemies in the north, powerful princes in the west, and powerful bandits in the southeast. The country is in danger on all sides, and it can't be said that it is the misfortune of the country.

"Indeed."

After saying the third "really", I also feel that I can't go on like this. I have to say something. So he thought for a moment and then said, "At present, the state's mobilization of the Beifu army to eliminate Sun En is to calm down the chaos in the southeast. The south is the foundation of the country. If the south is chaotic, the country will be unstable. After the south is calmed down, it can adopt a policy of appeasement to win over the West, and then recuperate in order to strengthen the country. However, these are just what scholars and the people expect, and it is unknown how the court ministers think.

"Indeed."

This fourth "really" is not what I said, but what amaranth said. As soon as she finished speaking, she smiled and said, "I have also learned to speak as a general." I also smiled.

After laughing at each other, I said, "I didn't expect the girl to have such insight about the current situation." Today, I was praised by her for a long time, and I also found a reason to praise her and naturally praised her.

"I am not the only one who knows that many women I know are concerned about the current situation. After all, the affairs of the country are related to everyone, men and women, old and young. It's just that you don't understand women's knowledge when you wait for men.

Listen to her, I agree with her very much. My wife's knowledge is superior to me. This is also the reason why I have been studying a lot in recent years. I haven't studied much since I was a child, and I'm afraid it's difficult to make a difference if I don't study more when I grow up. As long as it is done by people, it is difficult to change for thousands of years. Looking at the thoughts, words and deeds of the ancients is also helpful to learn the way of life.

"Briors are like state affairs. When Wu County was trapped, several generals used tricks to relieve the siege. When it comes to military tactics, I have some rough opinions. I don't know if it's correct.

"Please say it." I have recently analyzed more about Liu Laozhi and Xie Yan's defeat of Sun En and the siege of Wu County. He has also discussed with Liu Laozhi and his subordinates. The girl said that she had different views, which not only made me curious, but also surprised me. The opinion just now does not seem to come from a woman's mouth, and now there is an analysis of the art of war. How can it not be impressive?

Since she came in and talked to me about those words, my impression of her has suddenly changed. She has always regarded her as an ordinary fireworks woman and is good at dealing with men. It's nothing more than knowing some rhythm and powder. For men, even if it is not a plaything, it is not much better than a plaything. But now, I have a lot of respect. And this kind of respect has also changed my initial love for "fireworks women" to my love for "women", and the word "fireworks" has disappeared.

So in the next hour, Amaranth talked about the Battle of Wujun and the ancient art of war. At the same time, it also talked about the gains and losses of the battle of Wu County. Although most of them are known to us, there is no lack of her personal insight.

This talk made me very moved by this beautiful and knowledgeable woman. It's not uncommon to fall in love with a conversation, but it's the first time in my life that I have such a complex with a woman. The knowledge of Amaranth is far less than that of his wife Zang.

It was not until she got up and left that I realized that the sun had turned west.

I got up to stay for dinner, but Amaranth refused. She said, "I took the liberty to ask the general for something, but I didn't expect it to be delayed for so long. I'm really ashamed."

I'm busy with politeness. Seeing that she insisted on leaving, I couldn't stay any longer, so I sent her out. And ordered a personal soldier to escort her back.

This night actually made me toss and turn.

First, I thought of Amaranth's views on the Battle of Wu County and the military tactics, and then I thought of the Northern Expedition and the unification of the Central Plains repeatedly mentioned by Amaranth. I didn't expect that an ordinary woman would be so worried about the country and the people.

I remember that when she mentioned that she came to Wu County from Chang'an, I couldn't help but move: that day, when I looked up at the moon in the sky in the "Fairy Pavilion", I suddenly seemed to swim through Chang'an. Unexpectedly, the soul will float thousands of miles away there. Is there some kind of good opportunity with the amaranth in the dark?
