Chapter 144 Return
Fishing is a meticulous work that requires patience, which can best test a person's calmness. If you are an impatient and active frivolous person, you probably won't like fishing.
Li Daozong used to be an excellent commander. He is still walking leisurely among thousands of troops and horses. This quiet temperament is very comparable to people. When he fished, he was like an old monk. He neither spoke much nor moved at will, and he was extremely focused. And Chen Yan goes without saying that he is an excellent swordsman who has been training forbearance and waiting for opportunities since he was a child. She can ambush for a day and a night to wait for some fleeting murder. Fishing is just a pediatrics for her.
And Qin Mubai has always been a very calm person, and Zhen Suiliang's quiet kung fu is not weak. The four people sat on the boat and fished separately. Except for the tea and bait that the child occasionally served the four people back and forth, there was no other movement.
Qin Mubai thought, did Li Daozong really ask us to go fishing? Or does he want to observe our nature through fishing?
A moment later, Li Daozong and Chen Yan fished separately and caught two and a half crucian carp each. All four of them were happy, and it was said that there would be fresh fish soup to eat tonight.
In a northern region like Jinzhou, it is not easy to eat fresh fish. People in the Tang Dynasty think that pork is dirty and rarely eats pork. Southern fish and northern sheep are good dishes, while the fish in the north are more expensive. It's just that carp can't be eaten, because it is homonymous with the royal "Li".
"Fish is a good thing!" Li Daozong finally opened his words and smiled, "In the early years, when I marched to war, there was no military food, but when it comes to a lake, I must teach the sergeants to go down the river to fish. First, wrap the stomach, and second, fish is also a good dish. I have a unique passion for fish. Tens of thousands of good fish fry from the south have been raised in this lake, but it took a lot of effort.
"The prince's fishing skills are also quite superb." Zhen Suiliang said, "Be honest, this is the first time I've been fishing in my life. It's just strange. Is it that the bait under it is smelly, and the fish doesn't bite? It's obviously the same kind of earthworm, right?
"Haha, Mr. Zhen, don't worry. Take your time. There will definitely be a fish bite." Li Daozong laughed and said, "It's often the same in the world. The more you wait impatiently, the more likely it is that the opportunity will come. Qin Mubai, you are a general. You should know that the soldiers are impermanent and the water is impermanent. In many cases, the enemy and us are competing for patience, just like this fishing. Whoever can't calm down first may lose, and even his life will be put on.
"What the prince said is." Qin Mubai replied, "It's just a pity that I can't listen to the teachings in front of the prince every day, otherwise I will definitely benefit a lot."
"Don't learn from me. I have nothing to teach you." Li Daozong said, "You are a talent, and you will definitely make great achievements in the future. Since you have entered the martial arts, you must learn the art of war. One person's courage can be at most ten or a hundred people. Like your father's unparalleled hero, it is at most an army that deterred thousands of people. If you learn good military tactics, you will be the great hero who shocked the world and swept away thousands of troops. To be honest, I have never read any military book seriously. What I have learned and used are all from the battlefield.
"It's better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. Everything in the prince's belly is the real material, which is better than talking about soldiers on paper." Qin Mubai said.
"It's a great honor!" Li Daozong laughed and said, "If you use soldiers, I only admire two people in my life. One is my royal brother, today's emperor; the other is Li Yaoshi!"
Zhen Suiliang took over the words and said, "I have also been in the army for years by my father's orders. I have heard a long history in the army that when the emperor swept the world, he was indeed invincible with troops like a god. Wei Gong, Li Jing, Li Yaoshi, is my famous 'military god' in the Tang Dynasty, known as General Changsheng.
"Not bad." Li Daozong said, "These two are the most outstanding commanders of my Tang Dynasty. Compared with them, I am like a bright moon like a dragonfly, and a jackdaw facing a phoenix. Qin Mubai, you are still young. If you learn more, you won't be overwhelmed by your skills! If you are interested in learning the art of war, I can recommend one or two for you.
Hearing this, Qin Mubai, Zhen Suiliang and Chen Yan couldn't help moving at the same time: King Jiangxia is deliberately showing good intentions!
"If the prince is helped, it must be a blessing in the next three lifetimes." Qin Mubai quickly put down the fishing rod and arched his hand.
"Don't put it down, grab the fishing rod and fish well!" Li Daozong smiled and said, "Don't be so serious. I'm just recommending you. I have a good personal relationship with Li Yaoshi. He is idle at home now because of leg disease. Isn't it just a religious person? He is also almost seventy years old. Is it difficult to learn and wait to bring it into the coffin? It's better to teach a few more good students to the Tang Dynasty and serve the society in the future.
Qin Mubai couldn't help taking a deep breath: Recommend me to Li Jing to learn the art of war? ...This knowledge is great! Don't you say how awesome I can become after learning the art of war? It's hard to say whether there is a chance to fight in the peaceful and prosperous times now. But as long as I learn the art of war from Li Jing, it will be the descendant of the "military god" of the Tang Dynasty, and it is recommended by Li Daozong, the commander and veteran of the army. Does that mean that I have become the rising star of the "military"?
The Tang Dynasty is a country that is militaristic and attaches great importance to military merit. Whoever has high military merit may have to be used for it. Li Daozong took the initiative to recommend me to Li Jing, which undoubtedly greatly improved my status and gave me a strong political capital that all the generals all over the world dreamed of!
Zhen Suiliang also seemed to understand the meaning of Li Daozong's words and inadvertently said, "I heard that Li Jing accepted two apprentices to teach the art of war. One is Su Dingfang, and the other is Hou Junji.
Li Daozong smiled softly: "Su Dingfang is a general, and Hou Junji is not bad. But the old beard will definitely not regret it if he accepted Qin Mubai.
Old Beard, obviously Li Daozong's nickname for Li Jing, or his nickname, shows that the two are indeed very close. What he said was that Qin Mubai would be a little stronger than Su Dingfang and Hou Junji in the future.
Zhen Suiliang smiled and said, "Su Dingfang has been following Li Jing for many years and has always been a true legend; Hou Junji was originally a famous general and was ordered by the emperor to ask Li Jing for military tactics. My lord, please forgive me for saying more. Li Jing has always been extremely cautious. If it hadn't been for the emperor's order, he would not have easily accepted apprentices to teach him the art of war.
"Silicon, the murder weapon of the country, Li Jing should be so cautious. This man is the god of soldiers, which can be called unique. If anyone gets the true biography of his military tactics, it's okay to use it to help the people. If it is used to plot against the country, won't it be a disaster for the society? Li Daozong said, "However, Li Jing will definitely be happy to accept Qin Mubai. Moreover, the emperor will have no opinion. Of course, it's better to ask for the emperor's consent.
"The prince is so thick that I don't know how to repay him." Qin Mubai didn't know what to say. He is not very interested in things like the art of war. It doesn't mean to despise the military wisdom of the ancients. In his previous life, he was at least a graduate of the University of National Defense Science and Technology. If he hadn't been unearthed for his shooting skills in the army, he would probably have become a commander later.
In school, I have learned a lot about military works at home and abroad from ancient times to modern times. That is the essence of military knowledge that Li Jing and others have been exposed to for more than a thousand years. Although Qin Mubai has never fought in battle, his theoretical knowledge is still very strong.
Therefore, what really favors Qin Mubai is the golden signboard of "Li Jingmensheng"!
In the Zhenguan Tang Dynasty and even throughout Chinese history, Li Jing is an excellent military commander. In today's Zhenguan, Li Jing is a household name - General Changsheng of the Tang Dynasty!
If Qin Shubao is the first god of war, then Li Jing is really an irreplaceable god of war! The God of War can only work under the command of the God of War and always be shorter than him. This is what Qin Shubao himself admitted!
If you can become Li Jing's student, there is no doubt that there will be a foothold in the Tang Dynasty army - just look at Su Dingfang and Hou Junji, which of these two people are not the famous military giants today?
"It's right to know people and make good use of them." Li Daozong laughed and said, "Qin Mubai, you are talented and can be made. If you meet a famous teacher, you will become a great weapon. If you want, I will make a match. I can convince both the emperor and Li Jing. The premise is that you sincerely worship your teacher and concentrate on learning art, and you are determined to take it as your responsibility to protect the country, the people and the loyal monarch from now on!"
"Thank you, Prince, for cultivating!" Qin Mubai answered without saying a word!
"Is that a promise? All right, haha!" Li Daozong laughed loudly, and then suddenly put his hand to his mouth and booed, "Okay, let's not quarrel with the fish. Let's talk at dinner party!" No matter how much fishing, it's better to drink some fresh soup at night!"
Everyone laughed a few times, and then stopped talking.
Chen Yan has been sitting quietly beside Qin Mubai fishing. At this time, she smiled and handed him a look, which meant, "Sure enough, as expected, you are really like-minded."
Qin Mubai also smiled back at her and focused on fishing.
But in his heart, he was really a little excited!
I didn't expect to come to Jiangzhou this time, but I made a "great joy" favor to Li Daozong with Li Ke, and I got such a benefit!
I remember that my father has mentioned it more than once that if you want to make achievements in martial arts, you must learn the art of war! In fact, military service is the same as military service. The Tang Dynasty pays attention to family and origin, and the same is true for the army! After all, there are not many people who can win a lifetime of fame by flesh and blood like his Qin Shubao. More people have become ghosts before they get these fame.
Worship famous teachers, learn the art of war, raise the door and be able to stand alone and make meritorious deeds, so that you can get out of the generals!
If you can really learn the art of war under Li Jingmen... the benefits are endless!
"Is this the reward given to me by Li Daozong? Or, from now on, I will also be a member of the official military faction? Qin Mubai thought to himself.
