Chapter 88: Taigong's Art of War

If the ovary is not roaring like a tiger, it will not be a home if it is bankrupt.

A strong man comes from the sea, and a man from the Qin Dynasty waves in the sand.

Although the repayment to Han is not successful, the heaven and the earth will vibrate.

Is it not wise and courageous to hide in Xia Pi?

I came to the Qianqiao Bridge to reminisce about the ancient heroic demeanor.

Only clear flowing water can be seen, and there was no Huang Shi Gong.

Sighing that this person is gone, Xu Sikong will be depressed.

——"Jing Xia Pi Fei Bridge Huai Zhang Zifang" Li Bai

Taifu Xu asked: "Where did Zhang Liang come from at this moment?"

Bai Fu said: "I just killed Qin Shihuang in Bolangsha. The assassination attempt failed and he fled to Xiapi."

Taifu Xu said: "There are only three assassination campaigns recorded in the history books. They were Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang, Gao Jianli and Zhang Liang.

After the assassination failed, he successfully escaped and escaped the pursuit of the First Emperor's "Dasuo Tianxia".

When the emperor travels, he must first send people to survey the road, eliminate hidden dangers, and be on guard along the way. When the emperor is on a hunting tour, he guides and calls to make those who are walking stop and those who are sitting to get up. Four people hold horns and bows, and shoot at those who violate the regulations.

He also shot him. 'How did Zhang Liang know the First Emperor's route of action in advance, how did he ambush him, and how did he successfully escape after the assassination? When the whole world was looking for him, he still calmly wandered around Xiapi?"

Bai Fu scratched his head and said, "This...haven't you thought about it?"

Taifu Xu smiled and said: "Zhang Liang's grandfather and father were re-elected as prime ministers of the five dynasties of Korea during the Warring States Period. Their family wealth was huge. However, Zhang Liang's brother died without burial and dispersed all the family wealth. Where did the money go? Hire assassins, collect intelligence, and bribe.

The officials and entourage around the First Emperor all needed money.

Money alone is not enough, you also need people. The reason why Zhang Liang was able to accomplish all this, escape unscathed, and visit Xiapi calmly was because Zhang Liang received the protection of Jianghu forces headed by Dongfang Canghaijun. This allowed Zhang Liang to be able to

He "got away with it" and then nothing happened.

In the subsequent process of Zhang Liang assisting Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, in his struggle to conquer the world, this Jianghu force provided Zhang Liang with countless support, including money, personnel, weapons, intelligence and a series of strategic resources. Zhang Liang was able to strategize and win a decisive victory thousands of miles away.

.Eventually became the Three Heroes of the Early Han Dynasty."

Bai Fu suddenly realized it and asked: "Is this Jianghu force still there?"

Taifu Xu smiled and said: "Of course it's still there. It's just that it has changed a lot.

During the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, the world was divided into two branches: the northern and southern branches. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and heroes emerged in large numbers. The northern branch settled in Yingchuan, and its representatives were Xun Yu, Xun Wenruo, Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao, who assisted Cao Cao, Emperor Wu of Wei.

.

Xun Yu from Yingchuan was a descendant of Xun Zi. Emperor Wu of Wei called him his son's wife. He thought that no one but Cao Cao could be involved in Dinghai, so he came to assist him. I think Wen Ruo was a disciple of a saint.

His talent is like Zhang Zifang, and his Tao is like that of Boyi. It is a pity that Meng De has no end, and Liuhou will never come again. If a loyal person dies with hatred, the whole world will be sad!

Guo Fengxiao had scriptures and history hidden in his belly, and armored soldiers were hidden in his chest. Unfortunately, he died first, and the pillars of the Central Plains collapsed. If Fengxiao had existed at that time, it would be difficult to tolerate Western Shu and Soochow.

The representative of the Southern Branch is our Prime Minister Zhuge. The branch of the Southern Branch in Bashu is the predecessor of the Sichuan Gang."

Bai Fu was proud of hearing that the Sichuan Gang had such an extraordinary past.

Taifu Xu continued:

"King Xiang of Liang once asked: 'Who can unify the world?'

Mencius said to him: "He who is not fond of killing can be killed."

At that time, the powerful Qin used swords, cauldrons, and woks to treat the people of the world, and was cruel and tyrannical. Countless families were destroyed without guilt. The sage judged from this: Although Qin was powerful, it could not last. The era was not Qin's.

, Taoist figures come out of the mountain, select those with outstanding talents, impart wisdom, and let them complete the great cause of peace in the world.

South Korea was destroyed by the Qin State, which deprived Zhang Liang of the opportunity to inherit his father's career and his prominent and glorious position. Therefore, he resented the destruction of his country and his family, and concentrated this hatred on one point-anti-Qin.

Zifang was a man of extraordinary talent, but he could not imitate Yi Yin and Jiang Taigong, who used strategies to rule the country and bring peace to the world. Instead, he imitated the likes of Jing Ke and Nie Zheng, and wanted to take revenge by assassinating King Ying Zheng of Qin. He succeeded in one blow with the power of a mere man.

The old man in this village is someone who cherishes him deeply. This is why he is arrogant and shy and deeply hurts him. If he can be tolerant, then he can achieve great things.

Bai Fu said: "So it turns out that Huang Shigong taught Zhang Liang's art of war not because he respects the old and loves the young?"

Taifu Xu said: "There is more than one young man on Xiapi Bridge. Why did the old man throw away his shoe only after seeing Zhang Liang alone? How did the old man know whether the young man in front of him could read and write? If he was illiterate, how could he pass on his military strategy?

From everything that happened later, we can know that the old man had already found out everything about Zhang Liang through the Jianghu forces. The old man came to Zhang Liang. What he wanted to examine Zhang Liang was not his virtue of respecting the elderly and loving the young, but his understanding of the art of war.

The old man taught Zhang Liang an art of war by picking up and putting on shoes. If Zhang Liang understands it, it means that Zhang Liang is wise enough to understand this "Tai Gong Art of War". And Zhang Liang has indeed practiced this art of war with actions."

Bai Fuqi said: "In the whole story, don't you see that the old man taught Zhang Liang the art of war?"

Taifu Xu said: "When two people meet, it's like playing chess. Let's go over the game:

The old man's first move: let Zhang Liang pick up the shoes.

Zhang Liang can choose not to pick up the shoes, treat the old man as a madman, and walk away. How smart is Zhang Liang? Even the First Emperor of the People's Republic of China is wanted to arrest him, so how can an old man humiliate him for no reason? Zhang Liang responded with a move: Here you go

Pick it up. Let’s see how you respond?

The old man's second move is: walk on me. Put on my shoes.

Zhang Liang thought that he had picked it all up, so he simply followed the old man's request, knelt down in front of him, and respectfully helped the old man put on his clothes. What did he mean by that?

The old man resorted to the third move: instead of thanking him, he turned his back and walked away with a long smile.

Zhang Liang stared blankly for a long time. Knowing that the old man must have deep intentions, he stayed on the bridge and waited.

The old man used the fourth move: he walked out of the land of Li Xu, returned to the bridge, and praised Zhang Liang: "You can teach me, boy."

The two were like masters fighting each other, fighting wits and courage. After several battles, the old man won completely and Zhang Liang was completely defeated. Only then did Zhang Liang become convinced and willing to become his disciple."

Bai Fu became more and more curious and asked: "I understand the tactics, but which art of war is being taught?"

Taifu Xu smiled and knew that his goal had been achieved. He said slowly: "Either you can't bear it, or you can bear it to the end!"

Bai Fuleng was on the spot, pondered for a moment, and said in frustration: "I understand the truth, but under the circumstances, I couldn't bear it!"

"You can't bear it anymore, there's no need to bear it anymore!"

Taifu Xu took the paper and pen, wrote and talked, and asked: "Since you grabbed Li Musheng's neck, why didn't you punch him?"

Bai Fu hesitated and said: "Because...because I can't afford to offend him! Li Xiangquan is the king of the world, and I'm worried that if he punches him, the consequences will be disastrous."

Taifu Xu laughed heartily and said, "You are quite candid!"

After laughing, Taifu Xu's eyes returned to Bai Fu again, his eyes were deep, and he said: "The Art of War says: the stronger the enemy, the more enemies the enemy has. The more powerful Li Xiang is, the more political opponents he has, and the more powerful his opponents are. You...

With one punch, although you have developed a deep hatred with Li Xiang, you have clearly stated your position and strengthened the determination of Li Xiang's political opponents to win over you.

In this matter, you are righteous and confident, but he has a guilty conscience. It is true that Li Xiangquan has the power to rule the world, but he cannot cover the sky with one hand. If you make the matter bigger, sue the Jinluan Palace, and the lawsuit will be brought before the emperor, and someone will speak for you.

Besides, having a falling out in public is not without its benefits. When Prime Minister Li wants to make false accusations and frame you in the future, he will be worried about giving others a false accusation, but he will have even more worries. You will be safer."

Bai Fu's eyes lit up.

Taifu Xu noticed the light in Bai Fu's eyes, and then asked: "On the other hand, you didn't punch that punch. Will Li Musheng be grateful to you for letting him go? You are wrong. You grabbed his neck like a chicken, and you were already in front of everyone.

After humiliating him, the gap has been forged.

If you hold back your fists and dare not strike, you are both a snake and a rat, and the consequences are endless. Not only did you waste the opportunity to fight, but you exposed your weakness. Li Musheng got a glimpse of your inner timidity. Only then did he feel confident, bite you back, and come to arrest you.

"

When Bai Fu heard this, he wanted to slap himself in the face. After Bai Fu let Li Musheng go, he always regretted it. He hated himself for not having enough courage. Now that he thought about it, his lack of courage was all due to his lack of wisdom.



"Remember, 'the stronger the enemy, the more enemies the enemy has.' If you are familiar with this art of war, you will be able to defeat the strong with the weak, and use the small to gain the greatest!"

Taifu Xu was good at teaching Bai Fu, who had just arrived, the first lesson in Chang'an.

...

When putting Taifu Xu on the carriage, Bai Fu had a thought and asked: "How did Zhang Liang know that the old man would come back after putting on his shoes and left? How did the old man know that Zhang Liang would definitely be waiting for him on the bridge?"

Taifu Xu laughed and said: "Both of them are masters of the world. Without this wisdom, 'Going down to pick up shoes' would not be a good story, but a joke."
