"There is another article in this literary test where the spirit of killing is condensed, with the momentum of thousands of armies killing and the sound of thousands of horses galloping. Why is this article the only one missing?"
Wang Tai said in a deep voice.
Others had not yet reacted, but Yang Xuanlan on the side understood it instantly, and his heart skipped a beat.
What he was most worried about finally happened...
"Where's the article?"
Wang Tai said again. Looking at the civil and military officials in the hall, there was already anger in their eyes.
This time the literary test was held on the second floor of the Martial Arts Hall. Wang Tai was present in person, and he could remember the flavor of all the articles.
Those articles are like the sound of gold and iron, and the roar of white tigers are all there.
——But what is missing is the article that condenses the spirit of killing, has the power of thousands of armies to kill, and the sound of thousands of galloping horses!
In this literary test, the only thing that impressed Wang Tai deeply and remembered it deeply was this article. If the article can write in such a climate and create such a big momentum, then the military strategy must be excellent.
It can no longer be simply summarized as "good". In fact, articles of this type are often of great value and can be of great reference value to the court's policies and measures, domestic affairs and diplomacy.
This is the reason why Wang Tai attaches so much importance to this article. He was originally going to dedicate this article to the imperial court. Unexpectedly, when he came over to check it out, he found such a top-notch article with important reference value for the imperial court.
This article is not on the list.
This is a huge dereliction of duty!
"You are derelict in your duties!"
There was anger in Wang Tai's eyes. He rarely loses his temper like this, especially when the targets are these low-ranking civil and military officials.
But losing an essay by a candidate who ranked first in the literary test is no small matter. If the court traces it, everyone will be held accountable.
This is a huge mistake!
"Look! Look! Look!..."
Wang Tai said three words in a row.
This veteran general of the Han Dynasty finally revealed his serious and stern side in the military.
Everyone understood at this time, and everyone was frightened and frightened. This posture obviously meant that a candidate's paper was lost. And it is very likely that the candidate's level is not low.
This is no small crime!
Buzz! Buzz!
In an instant, everyone began to search anxiously to see if any test papers had been thrown on the ground or elsewhere.
"Did you drop any test papers?"
Wang Tai looked at the high-ranking captain at the door with bright eyes.
"No, no..."
The senior captain was also frightened, lowered his head and said:
"At that time, all the examination rooms were searched one by one. They were all checked and there were no omissions. Moreover, after the examination papers were collected, the brothers also patrolled them to prevent any omissions."
"In addition, after the test papers are put into the box and sealed, at least twelve brothers will escort them from front to back. If there are any omissions or are blown away by the wind, they will be discovered on the spot. I can guarantee that all the test papers are here!"
Cold sweat dropped from the senior captain's forehead.
This is not ordinary training. If you make such a big mistake in the martial arts examination, you will lose your head.
Wang Tai's face was livid. Without saying a word, he suddenly grabbed Yang Xuanlan's unfinished teacup from the desk and turned it upside down to catch the water. Then his blood suddenly exploded.
"puff!"
A misty mist of water vapor exploded, and the water vapor spread and filled the entire hall. It was like a heavy fog.
When the water in the air comes into contact with the test paper, the originally dried ink stains become moist again, giving off a fresh smell.
"Buzz!"
The next moment, under the shocked eyes of the high-ranking captain, waves of murderous aura condensed and burst out of the paper.
The killing energy is invisible and is a spiritual perception. Except for the powerful high-ranking captains, Wang Tai, Yang Xuanlan and others, others cannot see or feel it.
"Buzz!"
Behind Wang Tai, the articles that entered the literary examination list one after another also exuded a high-pitched murderous aura. There was the sound of gold and iron, the roar of the white tiger...
For a moment, the entire hall seemed to have returned to the scene when the literary test began. Candidates at the level of Wu Xiucai are not so powerful that they can make their writing spirit never fade away and last forever.
The murderous voice condensed in this kind of article will fade over time. Especially after the ink dries, all the energy and spirit of the time will be sealed in the article.
But as long as there is a trace of ink, the essence of this kind of article will be released again.
Wang Tai scanned around, and sure enough, all the other articles were there. Only the article that he had felt was missing was the most powerful, the most powerful, and the most lethal.
"Check, give me a thorough check! -"
Wang Tai said angrily.
The martial arts examination is almost over. I didn’t expect that something like this would happen. This is a huge mistake and must be thoroughly investigated.
"No need to check."
Suddenly a faint voice came from the side.
Wang Tai was furious and turned around, only to see an unexpected face: "Master Yang?"
Wang Tai was a little surprised.
"There is no need to look up that article."
Yang Xuanlan put the articles in his hand back on the table, flipped them around, and said calmly:
"That article is in my hands. I was the one who demoted it."
"What?!"
Wang Tai was shocked and looked at Yang Xuanlan in disbelief.
"The paper is full of absurdity and nonsense! If Mr. Wang is indeed referring to that so-called article, it was indeed me who picked it up."
Yang Xuanlan looked at Wang Tai in front of him and said calmly. Yang Xuanlan had already had this realization since Wang Tai came over and asked about Yang Ji.
I originally thought that Wang Tai had already relaxed and the matter would be over.
Unexpectedly, he took a roundabout way and in the end, Wang Tai approached Yang Ji again.
At this moment, the martial arts examination was over. Since Wang Tai kept pestering him, there was no need to be polite to him.
There is really no need for me to be too accommodating to an old general who will only stay in Langya County for less than twenty days. There is no need to use the official method of avoiding suspicion on him.
"Master Yang!"
Wang Tai emphasized the words "Master Yang" and said.
Yang Xuanlan was a general who was a martial arts examiner. Wang Tai didn't believe that he couldn't tell whether the article was good or bad. "The paper is full of absurdity and nonsense." Is this referring to the article that topped the first-class examination in this year's martial arts examination?
"Since the old general wants to see it, take it out."
Yang Xuanlan waved his hand to the confidant on the left and said.
"Yes, sir."
The latter understood, turned around, walked into the apse, and left after receiving the order.
Seeing this scene, Wang Tai's face suddenly darkened. All examination papers for the martial arts examination must be placed in the main hall for unified reading. Yang Xuanlan actually brought the candidates' essays into the mansion and marked them privately.
This is a serious violation of the grading rules for essay examinations.
But at this time, the article is important and it is not the time to dwell on such details.
The atmosphere in the hall was tense. Everyone stood up and had no intention of going to the cross-examination. When things developed to this point, even a fool could see that something was wrong between the two examiners.
After just a while, the high-ranking captain Yang Xuanlan brought from Taiyuan Palace came back, holding a few test papers in his hands.
"grown ups."
The high-ranking captain held the test paper in front of Yang Xuanlan.
"Show it to Mr. Wang."
Yang Xuanlan raised his palms. There was no expression on his face.
Wang Tai looked gloomy and didn't say much. He took the test paper and read it directly on Yang Xuanlan's copywriting. The content of geography, logistics, armor, formations, and formations was quite satisfactory, not very good, but
It's definitely not bad either.
These contents are all conventional, and no matter how talented you are, you can't change anything. Wang Tai hurriedly read through it and found no mistakes. He quickly turned to the end of the test paper, which is also the most important part of martial arts.
"A scholar has a plan for peace. Even a young phoenix dares to try its cry!"
When Wang Tai saw this first line of words, his eyes lit up, and he felt a majestic momentum rushing towards him. There was a vague feeling of "who rises and falls between heaven and earth".
Just based on the first sentence of this piece of writing, this article is completely different from other test papers. Even Wang Tai was deeply affected by the high aspirations and ambitions written in every word.
"The frontier is an important place with tens of millions of lives at stake. Without a strong army, there is no way to display its weight. Without a heavy code, there is no way to frighten the enemy. There is a saying that a mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. A pool cannot accommodate two dragons. Therefore, if you can fight, do not make peace with them. If you can win, do not talk lightly.
Abandoned..."
This second paragraph is concise and concise, directly clarifying the main purpose of this article. This overview of the longitude and latitude, which points directly to the vision and insight of the essence of war, is beyond that of other martial arts scholars.
Wang Tai continued reading:
"However, the jungle has no boundaries, the monster forest is endless, and the vast ocean is even more boundless. Take something in advance, and you must give it in advance. If you shoot a man before you shoot a horse, and if you capture a thief, you must capture the king. In the four seas, the barbarians should be the most important. Nine barbarians
Tao, the border troubles in the west are headed by 'Cangxu City'. If Cangxu City is determined, then the West will be determined. If the West is determined, the barbarians will be determined, and if the barbarians are determined, the world will be determined!"
…
Looking at this line of text, Wang Tai was stunned, and an indescribable feeling came to his heart. Wang Tai never expected that this article actually mentioned that he had tried his best to advocate an active attack on the court, but was eventually reprimanded.
, the "barbarians" ignored.
"If the city of Cangxu is determined, then the west will be determined. If the west is determined, the barbarians will be determined, and if the barbarians are determined, the world will be determined. What a big vision, what a big ambition!..."
Wang Tai murmured to himself, looking slightly dazed.
No one has ever mentioned this kind of discussion before. Even he himself only felt that barbarians harassing the border were a great harm and threat to the imperial court.
But I didn't think of anything else.
"Cangxu City, Cangxu City... If you can know this thing, you can point out this location. Just because of this, you have worked hard, so you must have something to say."
Wang Tai thought secretly in his heart.
He proposed a military strategy for crossing the border, and also submitted a report to the court. Why didn't he know about Cangxu City?
Although a lot is known about Cangxu City in the border areas, in other places, including on the map, Cangxu City is not very visible.
Not many people know about it.
In the eastern border, thousands of miles apart. Someone can know the existence of Cangxu City. This alone has raised the level of empty talk to actual combat. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
