Chapter 1694 Five things and seven strategies

Sun Shangxiang came the fastest, followed by a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl with beautiful eyes and a book in her hand. When she saw Sun Ce, she felt a little embarrassed, and she dodged her eyes for a moment, and then came over again.

Sun Shangxiang pulled her to Sun Ce and said loudly: "Brother, this is my new military advisor."

"New Military Advisor?" Guo Jia sat up in surprise. "What mistake did Ayi make? Did you actually dismiss him?"

Sun Shangxiang giggled, hugged Guo Jia's neck and kissed him hard. The sound was loud and his movements were exaggerated. "Sir, A Yi did not make any mistakes. I just found a better one, or my sister."

"Oh, I understand, you are nepotism." Guo Jia pointed at Sun Shangxiang. "This is wrong, your vision is too small."

Sun Shangxiang laughed twice, and before she could speak, the little girl walked up and bowed to salute. "Xu Jie has seen Guo Jijiu."

Guo Jia looked up and down at Xu Jie and smiled and said, "You are the new military advisor of the Third General?"

"That's right." Xu Jie said with a crisp voice: "Although Jie is young, he does not agree with what the priest said."

"Oh? Tell me."

"It is really not good to be accustomed to be nepotism. It is a wise man who respects it. There are more than a hundred people under the command of the three generals. The so-called relatives are only honest, so how can they be nepotism? I heard that the sacrificial priests are very clear about it. I heard that the sacrificial priests know the small things, and I know ten things. I think I will not misread it. That is to do it on purpose. I wonder if it is a sacrificial priest who speaks for the son or have any prejudice against women?"

Guo Jia was stunned, turned to look at Sun Ce, and pointed at Xu Jie again, but didn't know how to answer for a moment. Sun Ce nodded repeatedly. "Okay, with this sentence, I think you can win and lose the military advisor of the Yulin Guard, no worse than someone's son."

"I feel so too." Huang Yueying jumped over and stuffed a freshly grilled fish into Xu Jie's hand, smiling. "This is the first time I've seen someone beat Guo Jijiu so strongly, and I'll give you this fish."

"Thank you, Jiji." Xu Jie showed a sweet smile and greeted Huang Yueying politely. "A wise man is worried about it and it is inevitable that he will lose it. This is just Guo Jijiu's statement for a moment, without harming Jijiu's reputation."

Guo Jia laughed. "Just based on this sentence, I think you are stronger than Ah Yi."

Everyone laughed.

Sun Fu and the two boys were busy and grilled a lot of fish. Sun Ce and others feasted and praised it. Sun Fu married Cai Ke, but he had no other progress, but he had made great efforts to enjoy it. The fish was really good. When Sun Yi arrived, Sun Shangxiang had already eaten a lot of food and Xu Jie had eaten two of them. Seeing that there were too many people, Sun Fu and the other two had no time. Sun Yi took the initiative to ask Sun Fu to teach him how to grill fish, and had a lot of fun.

Sun Quan came the latest and was a little listless, but when he glanced at Xu Jie, he suddenly felt refreshed. He glanced at Sun Ce, licked his lips, wanted to come over, but his feet moved, and stopped again. He turned to look at Xu Jie, wanted to walk over, but he was afraid of being disappointed. Sun Ce could see clearly, and was indescribable, but he could not wave his hand, called him to the front and asked a few questions. Sun Quan answered respectfully, but was a little absent-minded and glanced at Xu Jie. Xu Jie felt his attention, and moved his position quietly, hidden among the crowd.

Sun Quan's face suddenly collapsed. He lowered his head, drooped his eyelids, and said nothing. He was not interested in answering what Sun Ce asked him.

Sun Ce was a little annoyed and ignored him.

After a while, everyone had almost finished their meals. Sun Ce called his younger brother and sister over and signaled Guo Jia to continue. Guo Jia sat upright and looked around. "Who can draw a diagram of the territory of the Great Han Dynasty?"

"I'll do it." Sun Yi responded first.

Guo Jia didn't call him and turned to look at Sun Quan. "Zhongmou, do you still remember?"

Sun Quan thought about it. "I probably remember some."

"Then try."

Sun Quan received the order and took a thin stick from Zhu Ran and outlined it on the ground. Although he had happened to Sun Ce's army two years ago, it was generally reliable to draw a territory map at this moment, which was somewhat beyond Sun Ce's expectations. There will be maps during marching and fighting, but there will be few national territory maps, usually maps of a certain war zone. The Runan Prefect's Mansion only has Runan maps, and it is possible to see the maps of the entire Yuzhou, but the probability of a national territory map appears. Sun Quan either puts effort behind his back or has the impression of two years ago.

Seeing that Sun Quan finished painting, Guo Jia said, "Who can add it?"

Sun Yi shook his head and said there was no need to add it. Guo Jia asked Zhu Ran again, and Zhu Ran also shook his head. Sun Quan painted it very thoroughly and had almost nothing to add it. Guo Jia asked them to make up for the main terrain. This time Sun Yi did not refuse and went forward to draw important rivers and mountains. After he finished painting, Guo Jia asked Sun Quan, "Do you have anything to add it?"

Sun Quan understood Guo Jia's meaning a little, thought about it very seriously, took the wooden stick from Sun Yi and made up for the details that Sun Yi missed. Sun Ce was even more surprised. Sun Yi was by his side every day, and recently he had been listening to them discussing the general trend of the world many times, but he was not as good as Sun Quan remembered clearly. Although it was related to his young age, it was also due to nature. Sun Yi was good at martial arts, but his mind was not meticulous enough, and he always had the problem of carelessness. After all, he was more suitable for fighting generals, and his talent was limited in strategy.

Seeing that Sun Quan was about to exit the map, Sun Ce reminded: "Zhongmou, think about it carefully, don't worry."

Sun Quan was stunned and nodded vigorously. He thought about it carefully, then drew a wavy line on the east and south sides of the map, and extended the line on the northern border for a section. Finally, he wrote two words on the west side of the map: Daqin.

Sun Ce nodded with a smile. "Do you know how to go to Daqin?"

"Uh..." Sun Quan pondered for a moment, drew a line in the Western Regions and along the seaside. Although the drawing was simple and far from the actual geography, it clearly showed that he had realized that he could reach the Qin Dynasty by sea.

Sun Ce and Guo Jia exchanged glances and smiled at the same time. He pointed to the position beside him and signaled Sun Quan and Sun Yi to sit together. Sun Quan was very excited, but remained reserved and sat down next to Sun Yi. Sun Yi arched his shoulder and raised his thumbs up.

"Good drawing." Sun Yi said in Sun Quan's ear: "I have put in a lot of effort in the past two years, right?"

"Uh, I didn't put in any effort. After hearing some of Zhang Fujun's words, I remembered it."

Sun Ce glanced at Sun Quan. "Ayi, you should learn more from Zhongmou and change your rough problem."

Sun Yi touched his head embarrassedly. Sun Quan bowed to salute. "Thank you for your praise. My third brother is young. When he gets older, he will naturally get better."

Guo Jia clapped his hands. "Who has read "The Art of War" and knows the five things and seven strategies?"

Sun Shangxiang stood up and said loudly: "The five things are Tao, heaven, earth, general, and law. The seven strategies are the master, who has the Tao? Who is capable of it? Who is the heaven and earth? Who is the law? Who is the strongest? Who is the soldiers? Who is the soldiers? Who is the reward and punishment? The five things are the Tao as the leader. The Tao is the one who makes the people agree with the emperor."

"What else is missing in these five things and seven strategies?"

The children looked at each other and did not dare to answer easily. Even Zhu Ran on the side did not dare to say anything. The Five Things and Seven Schemes are the first volume of Sun Tzu's Art of War. Almost anyone who learns the art of war has to recite it. Sun Tzu is the saint of warriors. In the minds of warriors, Confucius is equivalent to the Confucian scholars. He has never had to bow down to him, so he dared not question it. Now Guo Jia is asking what is missing in the Five Things and Seven Schemes, and these children are a little stunned.

Sun Ce secretly sighed. Although his younger brothers and sisters are talented, their talent seems to be in terms of force, not in strategy. Sun Quan is actually a little strategic. Unfortunately, Sun Quan's strategy is mainly reflected in the court, not in the battlefield, otherwise he would not be nicknamed Sun Shiwan.

Guo Jia was not in a hurry, and looked at the children with a smile, and finally his eyes fell on Xu Jie's face. "Little Military Advisor, do you know?"

Xu Jie hesitated and stood up. "Eat...eat."

Several children burst into laughter. Xu Jie was a little embarrassed, but he refused to show weakness and said in a voice: "Although there is no food in the five affairs and seven strategies, the troops have not moved, and the food and grass are coming first, and there is no food. What's the use of even a million heroes?"

Guo Jia looked at the others. "Do you think she was right?"

"Well, I think it's right." Sun Shangxiang said in a good mood: "I am still very talented as a new military advisor."

"Yes, I think you, a military advisor, are very talented. Next, let's calculate a question. If we want to send an infantry thousands of miles away to fight, how much food is needed in one year? What kind of method can we use to transport this food? If we use a ox cart and on land, how many ox carts are needed, and if we use a water cart and ship, how many ships are needed? Zhu Ran, please report the load and mileage of the ox cart and ship first."

"Here!" Zhu Ran stepped forward and reported a string of numbers, and wrote on the ground while saying it. Sun Quan and others surrounded him, looked carefully and calculated with their fingers. Even Sun Fu arranged the grilled fish for others, came over and calculated with a group of children.

Huang Yueying was not interested in this, so she came to Sun Ce and handed him a grilled fish. "You are unwilling to be idle when you go home for the New Year. It was a fun thing that was originally a calculation test. "

"What's wrong with math test?" Sun Ce took the fish and took a bite. "Just like you build a ship, using troops is also inseparable from calculations. Ten thousand people and 100,000 people, one hundred miles and one thousand miles are completely different concepts. When you build a sea ship and the army fights across the sea, you have to be more careful in calculating. No matter how big the sea ship is, a navy is at best 30,000 to 50,000 people. The opponents we face are likely to be 30,000 or 500,000. Without calculation, how can we defeat them and show our power in the world?"

"You're right." Huang Yueying nodded repeatedly. "I also feel that building a sea boat seems to be no different from an ordinary boat, but there are too many things to calculate, which makes people's brain hurt. Recently, I'm not asking Master Xu to give a lecture, and including mathology in the course of the Wood School. No one who is good at mathology helps. It's too difficult to build a good sea boat, at least it will cost a lot of trouble."

Sun Ce had an idea and nodded repeatedly. "Achu, you have a good idea, you have a good idea, why didn't I remember it?"

Huang Yueying raised her eyebrows lightly. "Because I'm smart, hehe."
