"General Hao, let me ask you, what do you think of the geography and military of our Chinese continent?"
Haotian was stunned again. He didn't expect that Old Man Tianji would ask such a broad question. He pondered for a while before replying: "Our Qingfeng country is vast and vast, but geographically it is only divided into three parts: north, middle and south.
South of the Dajiang River and north of the Red River are the most prosperous and affluent parts of our country. Most of these areas are the alluvial plains of the Dajiang River and the Xijiang River, with dense river networks. Therefore, Dahu Road and Jiangnan Road are the granaries of our country. Only the Diannan Road in the west is mountainous and hilly.
Constantly, the geographical environment is complex. Because of this geographical environment, the soldiers of the Southern Army and the Suzaku Army are mostly light infantry. Although they are not aggressive enough, relying on the Xijiang Defense Line and cooperating with our navy, they can effectively block the southern aliens
attack; between the rivers is the heartland of our country, but the form here is the most complicated. The fiefdoms of the three major families are here, and Tiandu Shengjing is directly adjacent to the fiefdoms of the Li and Zhang families. If the three major families are really different
The situation in the empire will inevitably become worse. Among them, the most important geographical location is Qingning Road, which is located in the western border of the empire. Qingning Road borders the Luoche Dynasty to the south, Sashan, a large country in the middle continent, to the west, and Sashan to the north.
To the east of Lian'an West Road is Yizhou Road, the fiefdom of the Song family, which is rich in war horse resources and a brave and capable blood clan. As long as Qingning Road is not lost, the empire's western frontier will be worry-free. And the six northern roads include Hetao.
Inside, there are mostly plains, which are most suitable for cavalry attacks. If we want to keep the north safe forever, the only way is to retake the Great Wall defense line so that the aliens outside the Great Wall cannot cross the thunder pool."
The old man smiled noncommittally: "The general's analysis makes some sense. General, please look at the countries surrounding Qingfeng, from the six tribes outside the Great Wall in the north to the Mitsukoshi Allied Forces and the Jinhua Dynasty in the south, from the Sashan Dynasty in the west
Goryeo and Dongwa to the east have almost formed an encirclement around our country. Our country has always been a place of hundreds of battles. When it rises, it conquers the world, and when it declines, it fights for the world. General Hao, if you want to turn things around, do you think you should first
Where should it occupy?”
"Juniors don't understand, so please ask seniors for advice." Haotian bowed and said.
"Since the general has already established his foothold in Dingzhou, he must have already made plans, so why bother trying to trick me here?" the old man said with a slight smile.
When Haotian heard this, his eyes flashed. He didn't think that his little idea could be hidden from Old Man Tianji, but he really didn't know what Old Man Tianji meant by this sentence. And Pang Ye and Xuanji were standing in the hall.
All with a faint smile.
"All the dynasties in China have used the north to control the south, and the south has unified the north. It is unheard of. I think the general knows the reason for this better than I do. The land in Hebei is flat and is particularly suitable for cavalry attacks. The fifth northern route is close to the outside of the Great Wall.
They are foreigners, so their folk customs are fierce, and the cavalry they formed are also extremely brave. By uniting the north with the south, they can not only maximize the speed and impact of the cavalry, but also quickly adapt to the local climate. The six states of Hetao are located in the big river
The hinterland is not only fertile, but also extremely advantageous. Moreover, the local people are fierce and have a special hatred for the aliens outside the Great Wall. As long as we use Hetao as our base and occupy the natural dangers of the great river, we can hope to regain Hebei."
Haotian said tentatively: "But Hetao Road is a place with four fortresses. The Jianmen Pass in the southwest is still in the hands of the Song family, and the Yinfeng Castle in the south is also stationed with heavy troops of the Li family."
Old Man Tianji laughed: "Although Yizhou and Qinchuan 2nd Road are the best bases for conquering the world, they are definitely not where hegemony lies. They have more than enough to defend but not enough to develop. If there is no external force, we only need to station an elite army in Dingzhou.
The two families will definitely not dare to move."
Haotian nodded in agreement, and then asked: "What about the three tribes in the northwest and the three kingdoms in the northeast?"
Old Man Tianji asked: "Then what do you think of the neighboring countries around me?"
Haotian said: "My Qingfeng Kingdom consists of the Koryo Dynasty in the northeast, the Uma Dynasty in the north, the Loxeo Dynasty in the west, the Mitsukoshi and Jinhua Dynasties in the south, and the Dongwa Dynasty, which has long been rebellious. If our country is powerful,
The surrounding countries will definitely come to perform pilgrimage, and if our country declines, the other countries will inevitably suffer."
Old Man Tianji nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, but what do you think of the six tribes outside the Great Wall?"
"The six tribes outside the Great Wall, although on the surface it seems that the three major nomadic tribes in the northwest are now powerful, the younger generation believes that it is the three northeastern countries that can really pose a fatal threat to the empire. Although the nomads can be prominent for a while, the ones that can truly be passed down through the ages are
It is still a farming civilization. So the younger generation believes that the three northeastern countries are our biggest problem."
"That's right. When a nation begins to develop towards settlement, it is a harbinger of the emergence of civilization. So in the future you can be merciful to the nomads, but you cannot be merciful to the three northeastern countries."
Haotian was shocked. It seemed like he shouldn't have said this to him, right? Looking at the old man's unwavering expression, even someone who was as familiar with him as Pang Ye didn't know what he was thinking.
Old Man Tianji let out a long sigh, and then said: "I am already very ill. We have to say goodbye today. I am afraid that we will have a hard time seeing each other again, so I will only say a few words. Haotian, please remember what I said. First, a nation
, he must have a lower population limit for the inheritance of his civilization. Just like our Shenzhou clan, because we have always maintained a huge population base, we have been able to inherit and grow through thousands of years of war. The reason why our clan can be passed down to this day is not only
Not only because we have a long civilization, but also because we have countless outstanding talents. The prosperity of China does not lie in the court, but in the world. If you really want to achieve a great career, you might as well pay more attention to these aspects.
Secondly, if they are not of my race, their minds must be different. Our Chinese state is in decline, and it is surrounded by countries of tigers and wolves. Without the power of thunder, we will not be able to deter their ambitions. Killing chickens to scare monkeys is not a good way to solve the problem. Among them
You can control the heat yourself.
Thirdly, China is not a country for one person, and the world is not a world for one person, but a country for millions of Chinese people. In the future, you must not ignore the common people in the world because of your own selfishness."
Haotian was at a loss when he heard this, but looking at the old man Tianji who didn't want to explain, he could only say: "Senior gave me words. Although I don't understand this, I will definitely remember it in my heart."
Old Man Tianji looked at Haotian's blank expression and said: "Those who strive for excellence will inevitably give up many things. Let me ask you, if one day something unexpected happens to God's will, what will you do?"
"This junior will definitely kill the world to avenge her, and then kill himself for love!" Haotian said without hesitation: "God's will is like this to someone, and someone is like God's will."
"Oh, God's will is like this, God's will is like this!" Old Man Tianji sighed again, and then said to Xuanji on the other side: "Xuanji, do you have anything else to ask?"
Xuanji bowed to the old man respectfully, and then asked: "General Hao, someone just listened to your words and there is something unclear. I would like to ask the general for advice."
Haotian smiled slightly: "It doesn't hurt to ask, sir."
"The Northern Expeditionary Army was defeated that day, and the general was among them. Since the general managed to escape the enemy's encirclement and suppression, why didn't the general go south with the army to Yinfeng Castle? Instead, he chose to stay in Dingzhou and give the enemy a surprise
Where’s the attack?”
"As soldiers, it is a shame for us not to kill the enemy and serve the country. If we can't even protect the elders in our hometown, then what is the use of us? The Hetao fell, and millions of elders and fellow villagers died tragically under the enemy's butcher knife.
If you can't avenge them, then that person would rather die." Haotian said firmly.
"Since he is fighting on the battlefield, the general will inevitably capture many foreign soldiers in the future. I wonder what the general's plans are for these prisoners?"
"Kill!" Haotian closed his eyes slightly and said without hesitation.
"Have you ever thought about it, that the six tribes outside the Great Wall still have millions of captives in their hands? If the general just kills them, what will happen to them?"
"Extraordinary measures are used in extraordinary times! Killing is to establish prestige, to clear one's name, and to give an explanation to the tens of millions of people who died tragically under the knife of aliens. If I adopt the method of exchanging prisoners, it will not only make them more
They are rampant, and they are even more careless when being attacked. If someone ignores it, they will still have some chance of survival."
"What is the most important thing in the general's heart?"
"Nation! My fathers and fellow countrymen!" Haotian replied succinctly.
"One last question. When someone sees the general being obedient to the girl Tianyi, has the general ever thought about whether this will make other people laugh?"
Haotian laughed: "Sir, I have filtered it out. A man's spirit is not meant to be expressed by women. Besides, sir, have you ever heard of a saying that the man who is inferior to one person must be superior to ten thousand people?"
Xuanji was stunned when he heard this, but he immediately understood and then smiled.
Old Man Tianji opened his eyes tiredly and interjected: "Xuanji, have you finished asking?"
"It's over." Xuanji nodded, then turned around and bowed to Haotian and said: "If the general does not dislike it, Xuanji is willing to follow the general and contribute his own strength to the tens of millions of people in China."
Haotian was shocked and quickly held Xuanji's hand: "Sir, you can't be so rude. Someone is just a martial artist. How can he bear such rudeness?"
Pang Ye on the other side was also shocked and almost sat up from his seat, but after looking at the smiling old man Tianji in the main seat, he finally sat down.
Xuanji shook his head: "What Xuanji admires is not the general, but the general's noble feelings for the country and the people. Although a person has no power, he is still willing to follow the general and work hard to save the world."
Haotian wanted to refuse, but the old man Tianji on the main seat intervened again and said: "General, there is no need to refuse. Although the general is resourceful and the generals under his command are also brave and good at fighting, he is slightly lacking in strategizing. Although Xuanji is not a genius, but
He has quite a lot of experience in this regard. With his help, the general can save a lot of worry."
Seeing this, Haotian couldn't refuse anymore, so he nodded and said: "That's so shameless. Mr. Xuanji, you don't need to call me general from now on, just call me Haotian."
Xuanji smiled slightly: "The general is now the lord of a city, and his future future is limitless. Someone is just a commoner, how dare you call him by his name? Xuanji will also call the lord together with everyone, and the lord will call me in the future.
Just a mystery will do."
Haotian was not a sloppy person, so he nodded and said, "That's the best."
When Pang Ye on the side saw this, he finally couldn't help but stand up and said: "Xuanji, since you are determined to save the world, why don't you surrender to the imperial court? Although the river is big, but with your talent, it is still too unfair."
"Junior brother, this sentence is biased. Since it is to save the world, how can it not be the same? Since Xuanji has this intention, then he will naturally choose a person worthy of his service. Moreover, the current imperial court is extremely corrupt, Xuanji is
I'm afraid it won't help if I follow you back to the Holy Capital of Heaven." Old Man Tianji said with a smile.
"Under the whole world, there is nothing but the king's land. On the shore of the land, there is nothing but the king's ministers. Although our Qingfeng country's power is declining day by day, today we are the people who have been destined by destiny, and we are diligent and caring for the people. Today's benevolent people, if they want to save the people from the fire and water,
If so, then you should join the court."
Old man Tianji sighed softly and said: "Junior brother, what is God's will and what is destiny? You have read the history books, don't you really understand? Princes, generals and ministers have a certain kind. The real destiny is the people's heart.
The one you want."
Pang Ye looked at Old Man Tianji's slightly furrowed brows and calm expression, and finally nodded to Xuanji: "General Hao is sitting in Dingzhou, and if you serve under him, it is equivalent to serving the country. Although we are masters and apprentices,
, but I have no right to interfere with your choice. Forget it, just let you go."
Xuanji quickly bowed and thanked him: "Thank you so much, Master."
Old Man Tianji waved his hands a little weakly: "Everyone has important matters, so it is inconvenient for me to stay for a long time. General Hao, please go back, maybe you can catch some fun. General Hao, please remember
Based on what I said today, don’t let me down. I have one more thing to say. Your father is the direct descendant of the Shouwang clan. The Shouwang clan is called Shouwang, but it is actually against heaven. In the future, you must do it
Act with integrity."
Haotian quickly replied: "This junior will definitely live up to the high expectations of my seniors."
"Senior brother!" Pang Ye said quickly when he saw the old man's appearance.
"You don't have to say it. I already understood your thoughts from the time you stepped out of here. This is also your fate." Old Man Tianji shook his head and said.
Pang Ye was in a daze for a while, and then he said after a long time: "Junior brother, I'm leaving now. Senior brother, I'm leaving now, and I don't know when I'll be able to come back. Senior brother, you must take care of yourself."
Naturally, he was very worried about the matter, so he did not dare to stay any longer. But old man Tianji just nodded slightly, then closed his eyes and said nothing.
