"You remember for me, now sweat more, endure more hardships, you will have a better chance of survival on the battlefield, don't stare at me, one day you will come to thank me for all my strength, steal and play tricks and don't be a soldier" Ji Sun Xiaoman walked on the training ground with his hands behind his back, one step at a time, and spoke loudly like her master when he was training his apprentices.
She was wearing a white military uniform, her hair was tied into a ponytail, and she was heroic and handsome.
A well-fitting plain white military uniform sets off her beautiful and delicate appearance, and I don't know how many big girls will suffer from lovesickness when they see it.
The soldiers on the martial arts training ground already knew that she was a daughter, but none of them dared to despise her because she was a cardamom girl, her skillful swordsmanship and the harsh methods of teaching her apprentices were enough to make these seven-foot men feel her in awe of her.
What's more, a pretty and cute girl can actually serve as a teacher in the army, and many people have taken it for granted that she is a woman who is jealous of her son, and she dare not offend.
In front of her, there were teams of swordsmen practicing in groups, and a phalanx on the left was sweating profusely practicing "air swings".
There are two pieces of bamboo under their feet, forking back and forth, stepping on the round bamboo joints, the front legs are bent, the back legs are straight, the waist pole is as tall as a mountain, the same sword swing action has been done more than a thousand times, one by one tired back pain, but Ji Sun Xiaoman, the terrible devil leader, does not allow them to stop, some people are physically exhausted, the lower plate is unstable, the bamboo under their feet has begun to roll slightly with their movements, one is not careful, people will slip to the ground.
"Raise the knee, lift the anus, lift the kidney, raise your head and look at it, and close your chin.
Pay attention to your breathing, your shoulders are relaxed, and the tip of the sword cannot droop when you return the sword backwards, and the sword should stop at a distance of one and a half punches in front of the lower dantian after the sword is slashed down.
Don't pretend to be dead and swing three thousand swords empty every morning, and you are not allowed to rest without one sword."
Ji Sun Xiaoman scolded loudly, ignoring the pleading eyes of those soldiers, and turned around, and she went around to a phalanx in the middle.
The people of this phalanx are practicing "sword walking", and several instructors trained by Ji Sun Xiaoman are meticulously leading everyone to practice qi in circles.
Each of the soldiers carried a large stone in his arms, sandbags were tied to his legs, his knees were fixed with bamboo so that they could not be bent, and there were strict rules for exhaling and inhaling every few steps.
As soon as they saw this handsome young man walking in front of them, the group quickly shook their spirits, and none of them dared to show their tired appearance.
According to Ji Sun Xiaoman's logic, being tired means that you haven't practiced at home yet, which means that your physical strength still needs to be improved, which will only attract her more training, rather than pity.
Ji Sun Xiaoman's punishment is very terrible, those who disobey the general's order have been severely punished, some people rely on themselves to be veterans who have been following Qingji, and some are old, so they ran to complain to Qingji, Qingji listened to their nagging very patiently, comforted them sympathetically, and then sent them back.
When it was, Miss Ji Sun Xiaoman was standing on the training ground with a sneer on her face waiting for them, and behind her was an army of neat and majestic mountains and rivers.
As a result, the punishment of the soldiers who had complained of the crime was doubled, and when the punishment was over, the soldiers were carried back to the barracks by the other brothers, and one by one they were so tired that they almost fell apart.
The nickname of "Devil Xiao Ai" spread far and wide, and he hated these big men lying on the bed, complaining bitterly, while gritting his teeth and cursing that Qingji's woman had better be "bullied" by him at night, and if she couldn't get out of bed in the morning, then they would be able to escape the sea of suffering.
Who expected that this little girl who likes to wear men's clothes seems to have surprisingly good physical strength, every day before dawn, she appeared in the barracks in high spirits, with her pleasant and crisp voice to call everyone to get up and practice swords, behind her, are two big men wielding whips, these fierce and brave soldiers in Ji Sun Xiaoman's scolding and the threat of the whip had to obediently get up and run to the training ground, obedient like sheep.
The soldiers of the third team have already survived the stage of "sword walking" and "air swinging", and are fighting each other with long swords in their hands to conduct actual combat exercises.
Ji Sun Xiaoman stood aside with his hands behind his back, watching the soldiers who were a head taller than her swing their swords to fight very seriously, and pointed out loudly on the side: "Okay, that's it, slash and stab, all your strength; The feet are like a chain, rolling with the sword; Step by step, always straight; The last to win the first to realize; Before his strength, and after his force; He is busy, I will wait; Lead him to skip the old force, and fight with all his strength when the new force is not sent.
If he retreats, don't chase after him; He is in a hurry, do not leave him" When there is a burst of "dangdang" sword strikes in the training ground, the ancient Chinese swordsmanship is a two-handed sword, which is similar to the sword of later generations, there are not many fancy sword moves, the sword style is sharp, and the moves are ruthless, it is no fancy killing kung fu, the action is not good-looking, but the murderous spirit is domineering, and it is indeed the actual combat swordsmanship that attracts blood.
"It's really good, her swordsmanship is very strong, and in a short period of time, the soldiers' hand-to-hand combat skills have improved a lot" Qingji stood in the distance with his hands in his hands, looking at the soldiers wielding swords on the martial arts arena and said happily.
Behind him stood several generals such as Jing Lin, Liang Huzi, Ah Qiu, and Zai Qiu.
Qingji's swordsmanship is not very good, but he thinks that he is the imaginary enemy of those who wield swords, and comparing them before and after, he can naturally see whether their combat power has improved.
"Yes, it's a pity that it's too short, if she is allowed to teach carefully for three years, Gongzi will be a swordsman under her command, and she will be invincible in foot combat."
Liang Huzi said regretfully.
"Hmm" Qingji nodded: "This is the contradiction."
The earlier the period of attacking Wu, the more beneficial it will be to the morale of our army, and the more unfavorable it will be to Ji Guang, who has just controlled the entire territory of Wu and cannot be like a command.
At the same time, however, there are also many disadvantages to us, one is the limited absorption of troops, and the other is the limited training of new soldiers.
The pros and cons can only be chosen by ourselves. ” He paused, and suddenly smiled again: "But after analyzing the stakes and interests, in fact, the sooner the Wu, the better, after the success of the Wu, we will not seal the sword into the warehouse, and the horse will be released in Nanshan, today let them learn more swordsmanship, sooner or later it will come in handy." ” Jing Lin smiled knowingly: "What Childe said is that my son-in-law is a hero in the world, how can he be confined to the southeast corner to be the king, and when the son-in-law is successful, we still have a bigger world to fight." ” Qingji smiled: "I have to talk about these things in private, but I can't go out and say them."
Don't mention it, all our current attention has to be on the restoration of Wu, and we can't be too ambitious. ” He stepped up to a mound, looked around the entire training ground, and asked, "The news from the Flying Fox Valley and the Chu State in Aicheng has not yet come back, continue to send people to strengthen contact, and let me know as soon as there is news." ” Jing Lin said: "Yes, son, please rest assured, there is a special person in charge of this aspect of the lowly arrangement." ” "Report, son, a group of warriors from the Jin Kingdom have come to serve."
In the distance, a warrior rushed and stood under the mound to report to Qingji.
Liang Huzi smiled happily: "Haha, it's good to come."
Childe, our Qingwaguan battle was not in vain, Qi Bao, this old boy repaid the peach, and now the defense of the country really does not restrict the warriors of the countries, this is already the sixth wrong, the seventh batch of strong men from Qin, Jin, Zhongshan and other countries rushed to serve."
Jing Lin smiled slightly: "It's the ninth batch."
There is also an endless stream of local patriots, but it is still said that these warriors who came from other countries are more powerful in terms of skills and physique, and they can be put into battle with a little training.
Bow down to meet them. ” Qingji smiled and said, "Okay, you go, tonight, I will personally meet these two new warriors." ” "I'll go, I'll go, most of the soldiers under my command are farmers who have just stacked hoes, and I have to pick a few competent people to serve as captains and chiefs."
Ah Qiu, who had just been promoted to a partial general, hurriedly shouted.
Qingji smiled: "You all go, the reception that should be received, the people who want to pick people, everyone is busy with their own affairs, I will walk around at will." ” "Yes" all the generals bowed their heads in unison and dispersed.
Qingji walked towards the training ground.
Many people in the "Childe" stopped one after another, lowered their long swords and saluted Qingji, in fact, there were not so many rules on the training ground, and many of them were just looking for this excuse to take a break.
Qingji knows it, and he doesn't break it.
"Hey, I'm training, what kind of trouble are you here to make" Ji Sun Xiaoman walked over hatefully, these soldiers stopped their swords and saluted the commander, it was not a sin, she was not good at punishing, so she had to be angry with Qingji.

"Continue to practice, the training ground, such as the battlefield, on the battlefield, either you die, or I live, who will give you time to salute the commander and continue to practice for me, who dares to steal and play tricks, swing the sword 6,000 times at night" Ji Sun Xiaoman finished his training, looked back and shouted, like a lion roaring in Hedong.
When those soldiers saw that she had seen through the truth, they immediately stuck out their tongues, picked up their swords and continued to compare, swinging swords and swords, hugging stones and boulders, sparring sparring, and one by one gritting their teeth and cursing in their hearts the wish that has not been realized: "God forbid, let her be made unable to get out of bed tomorrow by Childe" "Hehe, it's very good, it's a bit of a general's style", Qingji said with a smile, his eyes swept around, and he said happily: "So I'm relieved, I was worried that you were hiding secrets, and really only taught my people some lame swordsmanship, and now General Xiao Ai is doing his best with this, Qingji is really grateful." ” Qingji smiled a little weirdly, and the sensitive Ji Sun Xiaoman was suddenly ashamed: "What does this mean This girl is trying her best, but it's not right, he is saying that I am in a hurry to marry him" Ji Sun Xiaoman blushed and said angrily: "Who said that I taught them hard, what I am teaching now is the most lame swordsmanship" "Tut-tut, the most lame swordsmanship is such an effective killing swordsmanship, I should have married you back earlier, no, please come back."
Qingji deliberately said the wrong thing, and then was satisfied to see that Ji Sun Xiaoman's face was really red, even Bai Hao's neck was flushed, and the pretty apricot eyes also tried to stare at him wide, but with her pretty face, it couldn't produce the deterrent effect it should have at all.
"Childe, Childe" ran from afar, and when he arrived in front of him, he said breathlessly: "Childe, the messenger of Chu State has arrived." ” "Oh" Qingji was overjoyed, no longer teasing Xiao Ai, and walked a few steps towards the soldier quickly, suddenly stopped, turned his head and smiled: "Tonight, my son will hold a banquet to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the two groups of brothers who have come to serve the new brothers, and you can come together." ” "Can you not go?"
"This is a military order" "Whew" "Well, Qingji sincerely invited General Ai to the banquet, I don't know if the general is willing to appreciate the light."
"Hmph, that's it, this girl thinks about it."
Ji Sun Xiaoman put his hands behind his back, looked at his striding away figure, and suddenly laughed with a "poof".
"As long as you are brave in battle, make more achievements, and no matter where you are, everyone has the opportunity to be promoted to general.
However, this is all for later, since the Ming Dynasty, you brothers are sergeants and soldiers in the army, and you must be bound by military law and discipline.
Everyone cherish the opportunity, you can have a drink tonight, if you want to have a good time, tonight the military girl is also open to you for free, but only tonight, let's drink this cup. ” After Qingji finished speaking, he held a wine bowl high, drank all the sorghum wine brewed by the defenders of Aicheng, wiped his mouth, arched his hand to the warriors who staggered to stand up and toast him, and said: "Everyone drink to your heart's content, my son is too strong to drink, and I will go back to the room to rest for the time being."
Qingji looked drunk, staggered into the hall, walked through the hall, and as soon as he entered the back hall, his steps immediately became steady.
When the two brothers Liang Huzi, Jing Lin, and Ah Qiu in the room later, and several cronies who had recently been promoted to generals because of their bravery in battle, saw him coming, they immediately stood up together: "Childe" "Come, come, sit down and talk."
Qingji walked to the front seat and sat down, and everyone sat down in turn.
Qingji's expression was solemn, and he said: "I learned about the news sent by the Chu State this afternoon, I have thought about it for a long time, and I have decided to discuss some things with you. ” The attack on Wu is imminent, some things must be known to the generals under his command, Qingji learned about the current situation of Chu from the messenger sent by Cover Yu and Candle Yong in the afternoon, and he felt that the situation was urgent, although he wanted to stay in Aicheng until he sent troops to attack Wu, but at this moment, it seemed that he had to leave Aicheng and go to Chu in person, in this case, he must let the generals fully understand his movements, so as not to affect the morale of the army.
Among the seats, Jing Lin was in charge of recruitment, and he also drank a few more glasses to entertain the new warriors tonight, Jing Lin was not good at drinking, his face was red at this time, his eyes were a little tired, and his body was a little shaky when he sat there.
Qingji smiled when he saw it: "They are all our own brothers, let's discuss things in private, and we don't have to be bound by etiquette."
Jinglin, this tea soup is the most hangover, you drink it, relieve fatigue. ” Jing Lin said suddenly: "Thank you Gongzi, Jing Lin is not good at drinking, and the warriors from Jin, Qin and Zhongshan and other countries are good at drinking, Jing Lin drank a few more glasses, and he really couldn't support it." ” Qingji smiled and said solemnly: "Everyone, today Qingji received news from the Chu State, Ji Guang sent Bo Yu to lead the troops, and pursued and killed the two uncles of Cover Yu and Candle Yong, and the King of Chu intended to use the two uncles of Cover Yu and Candle Yong to consume Ji Guang's troops, so he always put them in a place of direct contact with Ji Guang's soldiers and horses, and now the soldiers and horses of the two uncles of Cover Yu and Candle Yong have almost been exhausted. ” When everyone heard this, they were all stunned.
Qingji attacked Wu, in the original plan, the cover of Chu and Zhu Yong were to play an important role in attracting the attention of the Wu army and achieving the important role of decomposing and weakening the strength of the Wu army.
If their forces are exhausted, it is tantamount to saying that in the battle of Wu in March next year, Qingji can only fight alone, and will not be able to achieve the goal of dividing the troops into three routes and advancing at the same time.
Liang Huzi and the others were all his henchmen and generals, and they knew his entire plan very well, and when they heard this, they were immediately moved, and even the drunk Jing Lin woke up a little drunk.
"Childe don't worry too much, when he attacked Wu in March this year, there was no help from the two sons, we are not invincible and invincible, if it weren't for Ji Guang's envoy to leave the assassination, we would have been stationed in the capital of Wu now.
Even if there is no help from the two sons of Chu and Zhu Yong now, we can still fight back to Wu State."
Although Liang Huzi is now a one-armed, his courage and ferocity have not diminished slightly, and seeing that everyone is silent and their morale is a little low, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said.
Qingji smiled: "Of course, Wu Guo has to fight no matter what, and the sooner the better."
But now it is different, Ji Guang's army was undecided at the beginning, and he had not fully mastered the state of Wu at that time, so he had to divide a large part of his forces to prevent a possible internal rebellion, so I could wait for the momentum to be overwhelming.
Now, after more than a year of painstaking management, we will fight the Wu army again, even if the opponent's strength has not increased, it will never be as easy as before. ” He was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "March next year is the period when we will destroy Wu, if we lose again this time, Ji Guang's power in Wu will be as stable as Mount Tai, and it will no longer be something I can shake."
Perhaps, I can wait for decades, wait for the violent turmoil within the Wu State, and then there will be an opportunity.
However, in that case, the hope will only become more and more slim, and who will remember Gongzi Qingji in a few decades" His gaze swept over the faces of the generals one by one, and he said in a deep voice: "I have carefully considered the situation of the enemy and the enemy of Wu, and all the conditions that we can use, and now I will present my analysis to you. ” The generals listened silently, and the light was reflected on Qingji's face, half of it was clear, and half of it was in the shadows: "As for my side, the most important thing to cut down Wu is the strength of the army, and the other is the timing.
We want to destroy Wu and restore the country, the more troops the better, but the time to attack Wu is the earlier the better, tomorrow in March when the spring flowers are blooming, it is the best opportunity, the later we cut down Wu, the more favorable the change in the whole situation is for Ji Guang, and the more unfavorable it is for us.
However, it takes a long time for us to recruit troops and it also takes a long time to train troops, but the opportunity to attack Wu is as early as possible, how to solve this contradiction?"
The generals looked at each other and were speechless.
Qingji smiled: "Therefore, reality forces us to fight Ji Guang with our own strength alone.
Ji Guang now has the financial resources of the entire Wu State to support the war, and the population of the entire Wu State to supplement the troops, if I only strengthen the expansion and expansion of my own armaments, and if I want to start an army to attack Wu before March next year with my own strength, the possibility of success is very small.
To be precise, that's simply not possible" Although Jing Lin was drunk, he was still the most flexible among the crowd, his eyes flashed, and he asked, "What does Gongzi mean, is it borrowing soldiers?"
Qingji said lightly: "Jun Kunpeng can only fly when he resists the wind, and the heaven and earth are in harmony to descend nectar."
Therefore, those who are good at fighting take advantage of the situation and do not blame others, so they can choose people and let them be in power.
Fight the world with your bare hands, fight big with small, fight a thousand pounds with four or two, if you are arrogant, do not know how to use the external power that can be used, brag about what you are bare-handed, and deal with the world with your own strength, you are doomed to failure.
The shortcut to success in life is to maximize the strengths of others.
A gentleman is good at pretending to things, and a wise man should act by strength, which is the essence of borrowing strength.
I was originally just the son of Wu Guo, if it weren't for the eldest brother and second brother being killed by Ji Guang, it would not be my turn to get the title of the son of this world, in the political circles of Wu State, my foundation is very shallow, it can be said that there is no foundation at all, this is one of my weaknesses.
Wu Zhong, Qingji does have some connections and prestige, but for more than a year, Ji Guang is not a stupid person, I am afraid that all the unreliable generals have already been replaced by him, so Wu Zhong, I have no strength to rely on.
Without the help of foreign forces, it would be impossible for us to return to the country on our own.
Therefore, with the help of external forces, it is not a help for my recovery, on the contrary, it is the most important force for me to succeed in recovering my country under the current conditions.
That's why I've been going from nation to nation. ” Everyone was silent for a moment, and Liang Huzi sighed lightly: "But who is the prince going to borrow troops from, the six secretaries of the Jin State are in civil strife, the five clans of the Qi State and Yan Ying check and balance each other, the Qin people lock themselves up, and the Chu people are clearly going to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and the other countries have no ambition to be overlords, and they don't have enough strength to help us." ” Qingji smiled and said, "Why help us If our enemies are the same, then they only need to help themselves, that is, help us." ” Everyone was still puzzled, Qingji explained: "Now because of my own interests, the only people who may fight against Wu are Chu and Yue, so I must rush to Chu and Yue as soon as possible to meet with the kings of Chu and Yue, persuade them to send troops together, and then rush back before March next year to preside over the plan to attack Wu." ” Jing Lin was taken aback: "Childe, you are the chief general of our army, anyone can be absent from Wu, but there is no son, if there is no son to preside over the overall situation, the heart of the Aicheng army will be chaotic."
What's more, Chu Yue is not better than Lu Wei, in the past, Chu Yue fought with Wu, Gongzi once eliminated many of them, there are not a few ministers in these two countries who have malicious intentions towards Gongzi, and the Chu people do not kill the two sons of Baoyu and Candle Yong, because they feel that the two sons can be used, and Gongzi, in the hearts of Chu people, your threat is not less than Ji Guang. ” "If you want to do great things, how can you not take risks" Qingji said in a deep voice: "I just said that the defeat of Wu will ultimately depend on us to achieve it, but this process needs external forces to facilitate, and this external force will definitely play a major role."

Relying on our lone army to live in them, it is impossible to deal with Ji Guang, who has gradually mastered the state of Wu, alone.
We must rely on the strength of Chu Yue to ensure the success of the war against Wu.
When the messenger from Philadelphia arrived, I agreed with Sun Wu and Yingtao on the specific date and plan of the trip, and immediately set off for Chuyue. ” Jing Lin struggled and said: "In this case, the humble can go to Chu Yue and his party on behalf of the prince, and the prince should stay in Aicheng." ” "You can't."
Qingji said categorically: "Chu Yue, I have to go myself."
There are three reasons, first, I led you to escape from the Chu and Wu armies, and what I led out was an army.
You can lead the army, but you are not sociable.
As the saying goes: there are three words, and clever words are wonderful; It is not easy to convince others to laugh at a sentence and make others jump when a sentence is spoken; Second, this trip to Chu Yue, the road is long, the time is urgent, you can't fully represent me, if the monarchs of Chu and Yue put forward some conditions, I don't have time for you to pass on the news calmly, and negotiate with Chu and Yue, and finally conclude a contract; Third, with my current status and strength, it is impossible to send a messenger to persuade the monarch of Chu Yue to join forces to attack Ji Guang, if I don't go in person, I'm afraid it will be difficult to produce results. ” He sighed and said with a wry smile helplessly: "Since the assassination of Wu and the defeat of the army, I know that the best opportunity to defeat Wu by my own force has been lost, if I want to attack Wu again, if I want to succeed in defeating Wu in one fell swoop, I must use strong external forces, and now I have secretly recruited a strange army in Philadelphia Flying Fox Valley in Lu State."
In defending the country, the strength of our army has been strengthened and the foundation has been laid for our restoration of the country.
Next, we need the strength to help us directly in battle.
I also hope that I can stay in Aicheng and personally train this army, but fortunately, you have done a very successful job, all kinds of things here, recruitment, training, raising food and grass, building armaments, all kinds of things have been done in an orderly manner, so that I can leave with peace of mind.
When I go to Chuyue, it is by no means to use my lips and seek a moral support, but to seek a long-trained military staff, which is of great significance.
Now we are about to enter November, and there are only four months left before I attack Wu again, and in four months, how many soldiers can we recruit, how many soldiers can be trained, and once my trip to Chu Yue is successful, it will immediately be equivalent to having at least more than 100,000 well-trained troops, so that they can participate in the battle of Wu.
You say, which is more important?"
When everyone heard this, it was difficult to stop it.
Jing Lin said ashamedly: "Childe, you are inferior and incompetent, and you can't worry about your son."
Lu Wei borrowed the city to recruit troops, and Chu Yue borrowed troops to attack Wu, and the prince wanted to risk his life and run around in person. ” Qingji patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You have done a good job, if you were not my backing, it would be impossible for me to use frequent means to recruit troops in the two countries of Luwei."
If it weren't for your painstaking management here, and even better than myself, how could I rest assured that I would lay down my own foundation and go to join forces with all the countries to cross me, Qingji, a son of a dead country, can have the capital to form an alliance with the princes, it depends on you. ” "Childe" Qingji's heartfelt words made the generals in front of him excited, Jing Lin said: "Childe, you are a hero in the world, we are willing to follow the service, looking forward to following the son to destroy Wu and restore the country, make meritorious contributions, we can repay the son, only this blood, good head, as long as you can cut down Wu and restore the country, and achieve the great cause of the son for thousands of years, even if you are broken, why do we regret this body" When Qingji heard this, the blood in his chest also boiled, he knew that the future was full of thorns and difficulties; He knew that relying on his own strength to recover the kingdom of Wu alone was tantamount to a fool's dream; He knew that now it was no longer as romantic as when Jin Gongzi Chong'er was in exile in other countries, and now no one was willing to be a moral overlord to take the initiative to help him restore the country.
In this era when everything is only about interests and only about the law of the jungle, he is struggling.
His subordinates regarded him as a spiritual pillar, and for him, he could not rely on the unwavering support of these blood men to have the confidence to persevere "Generals, please go to Chuyue here, no matter whether the mission succeeds or fails, you will return here before the ice melts in March and preside over the plan to defeat Wu.
Between my trip to Chu and Yue, here, I will ask you generals.
The generals threw their heads and spilled their blood for me, at the cost of life and death, and there was nothing to repay them, please be worshipped. ” Qingji said, got up and retreated, and then pulled off his robe and bowed solemnly.
Seeing this, Liang Huzi, Jing Lin and others hurriedly stepped forward to help, and when they saw that Qingji had already knelt on their knees, they bowed to them, and they also turned over and knelt down, and bowed to Qingji.
"Generals, please get up, the route and detailed plan of the invasion of Wu, I will make a decision after discussing with the generals, and now I will first talk about my plans for the state of Chu.
On the side of Chu, I have written a secret letter to cover up the two uncles of Yu and Zhu Yong and force Chu to fight.
Then he fled to Aicheng and stationed in Luwei to preside over the overall situation until I returned.
In this way, before I reach the state of Chu, it can also create a favorable situation for me, and the specific method is " To be continued:
