Chapter 406 Under the Jinshi Examination

Gong Li just shook his head, struggled to open his eyes, and then got up quickly, his face turned red (Latest Chapter of Zu Long).

In fact, Gong Li just lost a bit unjustly. He saw that Song Zheng was young and thin, so he felt contempt from the beginning. The distance between him and Song Zheng was only ten feet. For Song Zheng, such a short distance could be reached in the blink of an eye.

.

Moreover, Song Zheng also played a trick and rushed out before he finished speaking, making him unable to guard against him. More importantly, Song Zheng's fighting style was unexpected. He hung his feet on the opponent's legs to maintain balance, which was simply unheard of.

.

Of course, it was beyond Song Zheng's expectation that Gong Ligang came to his senses so quickly. After all, this general Gong was very good at hard work. Even if Song Zheng struck out with all his strength and cut the right spot, he was not completely knocked unconscious.

You know, even an injured camel can be knocked unconscious by Song Zheng's palm if caught off guard.

Song Zheng clenched his fists apologetically, "General Gong, I was unable to stop my attack late. I hope the general will forgive me!"

Gong Li was stunned for a while, and glanced at Pang Hui secretly, only to see Pang Hui twisting his beard and smiling, looking very appreciative. Just as Gong Li's mind turned around, he laughed, "What a boy, he's awesome. He can do it in just one glance."

I put you down, you are the first one. You passed my test! I give you a first class!" After saying that, he gave Song Zheng a thumbs up, turned around and returned to his seat.

As soon as the word "first class" came out, everyone present looked shocked. You must know that since the founding of the Qi Dynasty, in the military Jinshi assessment, the number of first-class appearances can only be counted on five fingers. Among the generals responsible for the assessment

In the eyes, martial arts examinations are just for inexperienced young men in the army, who are still far away from becoming generals (I am not the latest chapter of the Demon Queen). If he can be given a second-class rating, he is considered an extraordinary person. Gong Ligang actually gave

How come it's not surprising to be ranked first?

Song Zheng defeated the enemy with one move. Although Gong Ligang was bold and generous, he still felt uncomfortable. After all, it was too embarrassing. However, Pang Hui's smile showed approval. Gong Ligang was thick and thin, so he

Show your generous nature and praise Song Zheng to give yourself a stepping stone.

"Thank you, General Gong!" Song Zheng replied loudly without interrupting, and then turned around and stood in the white circle, as if nothing had happened. This calm look naturally won the favor of many people.

.

After waiting quietly for a moment, Feng Zhanbao said, "Song Wuju, tell us about the Battle of Changping. Why did Zhao fail?"

"In the battle between Qin and Zhao Changping, Zhao Kuo replaced Lian Po, while Qin replaced Lian Po with Bai Qi. Bai Qi faked defeat to lure Zhao Kuo into attacking rashly, so that Zhao Kuo was defeated and died from sharp arrows. 400,000 soldiers were killed by the famous general Bai Qi.

The story of the war on paper has made future generations sigh." In a few words, he explained the battle of Changping clearly. Song Zheng analyzed, "The root cause of Zhao's defeat in this battle was Zhao's system of using generals."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was a little surprised. When ancient people talked about war on paper, they often said that Zhao Kuoguang knew how to read the death war book and could not relate it to reality. Now, Song Zheng attributed it to Zhao's employment system, which has to be said to be shocking.

words.

Song Zheng continued, "The general who leads the army is the soul of an army. The predecessors summarized the virtues of a general as wisdom, trust, benevolence, courage, and strictness, which is good. But the key to the promotion of a general is experience.

It is not unreasonable to encourage generals to rise to high positions by destroying their talents and promoting them to high positions. Since ancient times, generals have been promoted based on their military merit and seniority. Zhao Kuo was familiar with military books, and his father

Zhao She could not argue with him, which shows that Zhao Kuo is still talented. After he led the army, he changed the military law, which proved that he had the intention to reform and eliminate disadvantages. In the end, he led the army to fight to death, and he did not lack courage. Such a person needs

After two years of experience at the grassroots level, even if it is only to lead a team of a hundred people, it will give them the opportunity to combine the military skills they have learned with reality. There will be no mistakes later."

"The king of Zhao was greedy for success and disliked Lian Po for being too solid in defense, so he replaced him with Zhao Kuo, who had no practical experience. Zhao Kuo's failure to advance in trade had the shadow of King Zhao in it. It can be imagined that before Zhao Kuo left Handan,

King Zhao must speak to him for a long time and encourage him to hurry up

Retreating the enemy (the latest chapter of the Legend of the Underworld Emperor). And Zhao Kuo was in a high position and was proud of his success. Naturally, he was full of confidence and rashly forged ahead. Fundamentally speaking, King Zhao decided with one word what general to use, so that there was Chang Pingzhi

If it is lost, the State of Zhao will be unable to recover."

"Since the Changping War, in the past dynasties, although there have been many outstanding figures, there has never been a case where a scholar was promoted to the leader of an army of 400,000 people. I have to say that this is the lesson that King Zhao has left us with his mistakes in employment. The only one

Can be compared with Zhao Kuo

Only Li Guangli during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was appointed as the general of the Second Division by Emperor Wu due to his maternal relationship. He once led his troops to attack Dawan and won, but later was defeated in the attack on the Xiongnu. However, Li Guangli led an army of 100,000 people, but it was not enough to expand the territory.

War is different from Zhao Kuo’s nationwide war.”

"Therefore, you must not be careless when selecting generals. If you are not careful for a moment, you will be defeated in the slightest, and in the worst case, you will humiliate the country. Now we have the imperial examination of warriors in Qi Dynasty, and the selection of generals has become a systematic and established rule. When you first join the military in the military examination, what is your rank?

Only after a hundred households have experienced training can they ascend to the throne, and only after exhausting their military achievements can they be promoted. There will definitely be no mistakes in the employment of Zhao State."

Song Zheng talked eloquently, and Feng Zhanbao couldn't help but nod. Song Zheng's words did not look for the reason from Zhao Kuo himself like his predecessors, but based his argument on the selection of generals. It was novel and profound, giving people a sense of sudden enlightenment. Qiu

Shen, Lan Shiguang and other senior officials also nodded slightly.

The smart thing about Song Zheng was that he did not blindly accuse King Zhao. In the era of monarchy, even discussing history was taboo. Therefore, Song Zheng was talking about Zhao's general system.

At the end of the discussion, he also mentioned the advantages of Da Qi's martial arts and compared them with those of Pre-Qin and Zhao. This undoubtedly flattered everyone present and made them feel particularly comfortable listening to Song Zheng's words.

Song Zheng answered the two questions without any stumbling, and almost finished them in one go. The contest between him and Gong Ligang was won with one move. A quarter of an hour had passed by now. According to general practice, not every

Every examiner will ask questions or give up

Take action. Basically, three of the five generals stand up, take action once, and ask two questions. The other two inspectors determine the ranking of the inspection object based on their impressions. Of course, this kind of thing is not absolute.

If someone is interested, maybe every general will ask questions.

Because of this, Supervisor He Kuan said loudly, "Which other generals have problems?" This means that if there are no problems, the investigation of Song Zheng will stop here.

Just when everyone thought the inspection was over, there were two coughs suddenly. Song Zheng turned around and saw that it was the last general on the right. This man was in his forties and had a Chinese character.

, with a yellowish-reddish complexion, angular eyes, and a short two-inch beard standing on his chin like a steel needle.

"General Ge, if you have any questions, just ask!" He Kuan felt a little strange. Did this guy named Ge Zhao take the wrong medicine today? He had asked questions in the first four martial arts competitions. Could it be that he wanted to show off in front of the prince?

Show off?

He Kuan was puzzled, but others didn't think so much. Ge Zhao was originally a bit harsh, so it was perfect to be an inspection general. "Song Wuju, Ge has seen your skill and intelligence. However, it suddenly occurred to me

I have a question that I would like you to answer." Ge Zhao spoke very politely, as if he admired Song Zheng very much.

Song Zheng raised his hand and said, "General Ge, please ask me a question!"

"Don't be formal. My question may be a bit difficult. It doesn't matter if you can't answer it. Of course, it would be best if you could answer it." Ge Zhao's smile made Song Zheng feel a little nervous. General Ge was so polite.

What is the problem?

"It's like this. You are the number one scholar in Shandong Province, and your literary talent is naturally second to none. Sun Wu, the military sage, was from Le'an, Qi State (now Guangrao, Shandong Province), so he is a fellow countryman with you." Ge Zhao walked around and listened.

Song Zheng was a little confused. After talking so much nonsense, Song Zheng still didn't understand what question Ge Zhao wanted to ask.

"Another military strategist, Sun Bin, is a descendant of Sun Wu. According to historical records, he once had a military book "Qi Sun Tzu". However, I have never seen it. I think you are from Shandong and my father is a great scholar from Xishan.

Sir, then you must study

There are many, maybe you can see "Qi Sunzi" in other classics." Ge Zhao went around until now and finally asked the question, "If you know this book, tell me about it. Of course, if you don't know,

, it doesn’t matter either. Haha.”

Song Zheng was stunned, this General Ge Zhao was a bit wicked. "Sun Zi of Qi" is also known as "Sun Bin's Art of War", but it was lost in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. There is no record at all in later generations, until the 19th century of later generations.

In 1972, bamboo slips were unearthed from the Han Dynasty tomb in Yinqueshan, Linyi, and "Sun Bin's Art of War" came to light again. Now, Ge Zhao actually asked himself to speak about this military book, which is really difficult for others (read the full text of Thousand Years of Reincarnation).

Sure enough, as soon as this question came up, everyone present frowned. However, no one said anything. Even Pang Hui lowered his head and drank tea expressionlessly, as if he didn't smell it.

Song Zheng thought for a moment and said slowly, "The Book of Han·Yiwenzhi" states that "Sunzi Qi" has eighty-nine chapters and four volumes of pictures. However, there is no record of "Sunzi Qi" starting from "Book of Sui·Jingji Zhi".

"Speaking of this, Song Zheng paused for a moment and glanced at Ge Zhao, only to see his brows furrowed slightly and the corners of his mouth trembled several times.

Song Zheng felt a sudden change in his heart. There was no disappointment on Ge Zhao's face, but a look of dissatisfaction. He was clearly deliberately trying to trip him up. His previous nonsense sounded very polite, but in fact he was forcing Song Zheng to answer questions.

.

Song Zheng had some concerns in his mind, and he said loudly, "However, I have seen a few paragraphs in other books, and I remember some of them."

Ge Zhao's eyes widened suddenly, "Where did you see it?"

"Young man reads a lot of miscellaneous books. I have forgotten the specific book. Why don't you memorize it first and ask General Ge to identify it?"

Ge Zhao nodded. Everyone here was familiar with the art of war, and they were all very interested when they heard that Song Zheng could recite the rumored "Grandson of Qi".

Song Zheng coughed and said, "The passage is about King Wei of Qi asking about the soldiers. The passage I remember is: King Wei of Qi asked Sun Tzu, the soldier who used it, and said: 'The two armies are equal, and the two generals are facing each other. They are both strong and solid. Mo

If you dare to move first, what can you do?" Sun Tzu replied: "Taking it with a weak pawn, but a brave man will take it, expecting it to be in the north, not expecting to get it. Make a small formation to touch its side. This is called a big gain!…

…'”

After memorizing a section of "Sun Bin's Art of War: Qi Wei King's Questions", he also memorized a section of "Chen Ji's Questions about the Base". Of course, even these two chapters were skipped by Song Zheng. Although the order was messy, the meaning in the book of war was still there.

, everyone heard it clearly.

Ge Zhao looked at the surprised faces of everyone, took a deep breath, turned to smile, and gave Song Zheng a thumbs up, "Song Wuju, a great talent!"
