Chapter 138 Han Xin is a disciple
Li Nian did not know that Ying Zheng planned to be his father-in-law, nor did he know that Liu Ji and Lu Fei had arrived in Xianyang. Liu Ji had been summoned by Ying Zheng. He was watching at the moment. There was a child in front of me.
This child is only over nine years old, but he is not as lively as a child should be. His face is calm and unsmiling, and he is not afraid at all because this is the palace of the Qin Dynasty.
Just now, Ying Zheng sent someone to bring the child over and told him that the child's name was Han Xin and that he would teach him from now on.
‘This little guy is Han Xin? That soldier in history? ’
Li Nian understood that Ying Zheng's purpose in letting Han Xin come over was not only to let him teach Han Xin something about future generations, but also to correct Han Xin's character to prevent him from repeating the mistakes of history.
When Li Nian looked at him, little Han Xin also looked at Li Nian without fear.
He and his mother arrived in Xianyang the day before yesterday and were not summoned by the King of Qin. Yesterday, the King of Qin sent an edict to let him enter the palace to meet a teacher today, so the current scene happened.
After sizing up Li Nian for a while, Xiao Hanxin said: "Are you the teacher the king has found for me? What can you teach me?"
'Although you are not old, you really fit the bill. Han Xin's character is so outspoken and asking questions right from the beginning. ’
Li Nian did not answer Han Xin, but asked: "What do you want to learn?"
Little Han Xin thought for a moment, looked at Li Nian and said: "You can teach me whatever I want to learn? I want to learn the art of war. , can you teach me?”
Li Nian shook his head and smiled. Said: "I have never been on the battlefield and do not understand the art of war, but I may be able to teach you something related to the art of war."
Little Han Xin looked puzzled. Since this person does not understand the art of war, Why do you dare to say that you can teach him things related to the art of war and war?
Seeing the doubt on Xiao Han Xin's face, Li Nian deliberately lowered his head, approached Xiao Han Xin and said: "What I can teach you, but others can't teach, I am the only one in the world who has it, from ancient times to the present. No one else will!”
The disbelief on Xiao Han Xin's face was even heavier. He felt that this person was talking big words, and the big words were not rigorous: No one else would do it since ancient times? So where did you learn it?
Seeing his expression, Li Nian didn't know what the little guy was thinking, and said, "Why are you learning the art of war?"
Little Han Xin said without hesitation: "I think Be a general and command thousands of troops Horse!"
Li Nian asked again: "Then why do you want to be a general?"
Xiao Han Xin said: "A general is majestic, can be fed and clothed, cannot be bullied, and can live in a big city. House.”
Even the famous "Soldier Immortal" in history was so simple and simple when he had his ideals when he was a child.
Li Nian nodded and asked: "Then do you know what war is?"
Little Han Xin had obviously read "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and immediately replied with the words in "Sun Tzu's Art of War" : "Soldiers are a major matter of the country, a place of life and death. , the key to survival is to observe it."
Li Nian said with a smile: "You know Sun Tzu's Art of War, where did you learn it?"
Xiao Han Xin took it for granted. Said: "From home!"
Li Nian asked curiously: "Does your family have the art of war?" Little Han Xin glanced at this strange teacher, his eyes seemed to say: Are you stupid? I already said it was from home. If my family has the art of war, could it be someone else's family?
But in order to care about this strange teacher who may not be very smart, Xiao Han Xin still replied seriously: "Yes!"
Li Nian showed the same expression as before , he finally solved another historical mystery. Han Xin's art of war actually originated from family traditions, and was not taught by the legendary Wei Liaozi.
But this further proves Han Xin’s extraordinary military talent. His father may have taught him for a while while he was still alive, and then he relied on self-study, and then gained some practical experience by observing Xiang Liang, Xiang Yu, and Liu Bang. , and quickly grew into a top commander.
In this way, he can become one of the top commanders in history. If his environment is changed and he is taught by people like Wang Jian and Wei Liao, what kind of monster will Han Xin in this world transform into?
'The First Emperor must be planning this, so I should be just one of Han Xin's teachers, but I am the most important teacher. I must correct his temperament and make it a weapon that can be grasped by the Qin Dynasty. The unparalleled sword. Otherwise, the First Emperor will break this sword! ’
Li Nian felt that the task of teaching little Han Xin was arduous and heavy. What he taught would determine little Han Xin’s future life or death.
He looked at little Han Xin again. This little guy must not understand his fate, and asked: "Then do you know the meaning of that sentence in "The Art of War"?"
Xiao Hanxin said: "Military warfare is a major national event, related to the life and death of the country, and must be carefully examined."
Li Niandao: "It is not only the life and death of the country, but also the life and death of many people, and it may also be the life and death of a nation."
"In the future, if you join the army from me and step into the battlefield, I hope you will remember one thing. Something..."
Seeing Li Nian's serious expression, little Han Xin nodded solemnly, and then heard Li Nian say: "Although kindness is said not to control soldiers, I I hope you can remember that every soldier on the battlefield is a life, and they also have their own parents and wives. You should think more about it when making certain decisions, and don't treat them as cold chess pieces. "
After hearing what Li Nian said, little Han Xin's eyes were surprised. He didn't expect that what Li Nian told him so seriously was actually this: The strange teacher he met today is really special!
Li Niandao: "I'm not done yet. What do you think the war is about?"
Xiao Hanxin said: "Of course, whoever has more people, whose weapons are sharper, whose food is more abundant, whose morale is higher, whose generals are more powerful..."
Li Nianxiao He nodded: "What you said is all right, but when it comes down to what you said, there are actually only three points: one is soldiers, one is generals, and one is logistics. If you want to win a war, you must do all three well, then how "
Li Nian asked and answered: "First of all, you must know the situation of your own army! You said you want to be a general and command thousands of troops. How many troops and horses do you have? I don’t know, do you think he is a qualified commander?”
Little Han Xin shook his head, if he doesn’t even understand the army he commands, then what kind of qualified general is he?
Li Nian added: "So as a qualified commander, you must know the status of your own army, such as how many soldiers are capable of fighting, how many miles these soldiers can march in a day, and how much food they consume."
"Knowing these, when formulating a battle plan, you will know how many days it will take to reach the destination, how much consumption will be required, and whether the army's food reserves can support it."
"Don't think these things are very important. Simple means not taking it seriously. A slight difference can lead to a huge mistake. Sometimes it is just a small thing. "My negligence led to the failure of a war."
Li Nian smiled and showed his fox tail: "We are here for arithmetic class today. We can't learn arithmetic well and can't calculate accounts clearly. How can we be a general?" ?”
