Chapter 396: Jihe Theory
"What else do you do besides farming?"
"I...I...I...I have also read...Military Books!"
"You have read military books? I don't believe it!"
"If you don't believe it..., we can... compare!"
Looking at the two men who were pointed at the pins, Yang Ling stopped them with a smile.
"Since you both don't convince each other, why do you compare with each other as Shi Zai said?
Jiang Wei's eyes lit up and he nodded,
"What the teacher said is that we can compare before!"
Deng Ai also agreed happily and asked,
"Teacher, how do we compare?"
Cao Ren beside him pondered,
"It's better to let them use sand table deductions to conduct a competition."
Yang Ling shook her head,
"Since they are going to compete, then we might as well have a real exercise."
Since the sand table was invented by Yang Ling, most of the military exercises were carried out on the sand table.
Although this can reduce consumption and avoid casualties, it also has corresponding disadvantages, that is, it is easy to talk about it on paper.
Jiang Wei in history has never been Deng Ai's opponent, and even was attacked by Deng Ai and directly destroyed the country.
But to a large extent, it is also because Shu Kingdom's national strength is far inferior to that of Wei Kingdom.
It is precisely because of this that Yang Ling intentionally asked Jiang Wei and Deng Ai to have a real exercise.
First, let them distinguish between the two of them to avoid quarrels in the future, and second, they also want to see which of them has higher talent!
When Cao Ren, Cao Tai and others heard this, they were all ridiculous and crying.
For the sake of the two children's strife, we must mobilize the army to conduct a real military exercise?
In their opinion, Yang Ling was too much of a big deal!
But as the general of the Conquest South, Yang Ling controlled all affairs.
Although Cao Ren disagreed a little, he could only nod and agreed.
It was getting late today, and even if I prepared now, I wouldn't have time to act.
Therefore, Yang Ling will take people back to Duyang City for the time being and plans to act again the next day.
Cao Ren had already ordered people to prepare a banquet in the city to welcome Yang Ling and his group.
At the banquet, the atmosphere was warm and everyone was happy.
At this moment, Deng Ai suddenly stood up and walked to Yang Ling, and said respectfully,
"Students have their own experience in farming. Now they have written their works, so please ask the teacher to read it."
Yang Ling took it and looked carefully, and his eyes lit up!
In this work entitled "Jihe Lun", Deng Ai first emphasized the importance of farming, and then explained in detail how to farming from the Han Dynasty's land, rivers, etc.
Judging from the points he gave and the data, if he followed his advice, he would be able to add at least five million hu of grain every year!
Although Yang Ling once asked Cao Cao that he had requested such as reclaiming deserted fields and providing free seeds of people's farm tools, he was actually not good at how to implement it.
The talent that Deng Ai showed was exactly what Yang Ling was not good at!
I really found the treasure now!
Yang Ling sighed in his heart, his eyes were full of praise,
"The talent of a scholar in internal affairs is not inferior to a teacher!"
Cao Ren was a little surprised to hear him praise Deng Ai.
"Why did the general say this?"
"General Zixiao, please see for yourself."
Yang Ling smiled and handed Deng Ai's work to Cao Ren.
After reading the content of "Jihe Theory", Cao Ren's expression changed!
Although he was a military general, he often trained troops and had a lot of experience in farming.
Deng Ai's views and vision in "Jihe Theory", let alone Cao Ren himself, even the four ministers under Cao Cao, Zao Zhi, Han Hao, Ren Jun and Yuan Huan, who were specifically responsible for farming, were probably just like this!
"Fortunately, the general has a keen eye, otherwise he would have almost buried such talent!"
Cao Ren breathed a sigh of relief and glared at the Diannong Captain Cai Kun with a vicious look.
Cai Kun was so scared that he was trembling, but he felt quite aggrieved.
Who made the world value family background? Even if Cai Kun is willing to recommend it, Deng Ai will not be able to be valued if Deng Ai is a member of the military farmer who is born in poverty and has a stuttering!
"If you had not been accepted as a student by the general, I would have suggested to the King of Wei to reuse you."
Cao Ren smiled and said to Deng Ai,
"But that's great. Under the command of the general, you can also show your talents!"
Deng Ai smiled shyly and didn't say anything.
Looking at Deng Ai, who became the focus of the banquet, Jiang Wei pursed his lips and his eyes were quite firm.
In tomorrow's exercise, he must defeat Deng Ai and prove to the teacher that his talent is far above Deng Ai!
...
After a night of rest, the next morning, Yang Ling, Cao Ren and others came outside Duyang City.
At this time, a simple platform had been built outside the city, and the soldiers were also waiting in line.
According to the rules of the exercise, Jiang Wei and Deng Ai each led 3,000 troops and fought in a radius of twenty miles.
Those who take the lead in seizing the opponent's flag or annihilate the opponent's army should be the winner.
The combat effectiveness of the soldiers and horses on both sides is the same, but if there is an ambush or a surprise attack, it will be handed over to the arbitration team led by Yang Ling for judgment.
After Jiang Wei and Deng Ai understood the rules of the battle, Yang Ling nodded to Zhou Cang.
Zhou Cang took a step forward understandably and said in a deep voice,
"The act begins!"
Jiang Wei and Deng Ai, wearing small number one armor, each turned over their horses.
"Don't lose too quickly later."
Jiang Wei was a little provocative and authentic.
"I...I'm the same...thinking, Junior Brother Boyue."
Deng Ai said with a smile.
"Hmph, let's take a look."
Jiang Wei grabbed the horse's belly and turned around and left with his soldiers.
Deng Ai didn't say anything else, and led his troops away.
On the platform.
Gan Ning smiled and said while drinking tea.
"General, General Zixiao, who do you think will win?"
"I think it should be Bojo."
Cao Ren stroked his beard and pondered,
"He is the close disciple of the General and has been with the General for a while. Although Shi Zai is talented, he is only self-taught after all."
"What do you think?"
Gan Ning looked at Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and others again.
"I also think Boy's chances of winning are higher."
"I am equally optimistic about Bejo."
Whether it is Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Gao Shun and Gao Rou, they all think that Jiang Wei has a higher chance of winning.
After all, Jiang Wei showed outstanding military talent as early as when the Liangzhou rebellion was quelled.
"Since you all have a good opinion of Bojo, then I will be a good opinion of Shizai."
Yang Ling shrugged her shoulders.
"Why is this?"
Ganning Qidao.
"I can't say it either."
Yang Ling shook his head.
Jiang Wei and Deng Ai are both his students, so he is not biased.
But for some reason, he was more optimistic about Deng Ai.
Perhaps it is because Jiang Wei has been defeated by Deng Ai many times in history!
"Then let's wait and see!"
Chapter completed!
