Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

The fact is just as I expected, there is a charge of assassinating myself, how can Cao Huachun, a smart person, ignore it.

No, following the clues, Cao Huachun was obviously planning to take advantage of this opportunity to make a big fight. Judging by his appearance, he obviously also wanted to use this opportunity to get his hands on Jinyiwei, who was used to submitting to Dongchang.

Cao Huachun's thoughts and Li Xiu's will naturally not be exposed, and even now, everything is going according to his expectations.

Bit by bit, all the foundations of Wei Zhongxian were eaten away and wiped away until Zhu Youjian took control of the government. Only then was the time to truly display his ambitions.

A few words of politeness, the two did not talk too much, both are close ministers of the emperor, one is a factory supervisor, and the other is in charge of military power, keeping the necessary distance is a silent tacit understanding between the two.

"Master, is this General Li?"

As soon as Li Xiu left, a young eunuch beside Cao Huachun couldn't help asking.

"how?"

Cao Huachun glanced at the eunuch, the smile that was shown in front of Li Xiu just now gradually faded, and he spit out two words expressionlessly.

"It's nothing, it's just that I didn't expect to be so young!"

The eunuch shrank subconsciously, and smiled mischievously.

"Don't be short-sighted. This General Li is the person His Majesty trusts and relies on the most. If anyone of you offends him, don't blame the governor for not protecting you!"

With a cold voice, Cao Huachun waved his sleeves and strode towards Qianqing Palace.

"The last general will see the general!"

Walking to the gate of the arsenal in the inner palace, before Li Xiu could show the order letter given by Zhu Youjian, a general guarding him immediately greeted him.

"Do you know this general?"

Looking at the strange face in front of him, Li Xiu was a little curious.

"Reporting to the general, when the late emperor passed away, the last general was ordered to guard the late emperor's mourning hall. I was fortunate enough to meet the general!"

Hearing this, Li Xiu instantly understood.

In other words, during this period of time, Li Xiu has experienced this kind of scene countless times.

Once the situation rises, there are so many people who want to cling to it!

This is also why he doesn't want to really set foot in the imperial court, otherwise, with Zhu Youjian's reliance and trust, he might be able to tear apart the intricate and noble group abruptly!

While thinking, under the leadership of this general, Li Xiu stepped into the arsenal of the inner palace that was once elusive without even showing the letter from the emperor.

The heavy iron door was opened, and what Li Xiu saw was a scene similar to the Golden Pavilion hidden by Jin Yiwei.

"The old slave has seen the general!"

While the eyes were turning, the sudden sound made Li Xiu subconsciously grasp the handle of the knife, and his murderous intent instantly locked onto the hunchbacked figure behind the table next to him!

Looking at the old eunuch standing in front of him, Li Xiu frowned, his eyes froze for a while, and then his voice slowly sounded: "Are you a martial artist?"

"Ahem... some trivial tricks, can't get on the table..."

The old eunuch coughed a few times, looked at Li Xiu with cloudy eyes, and the hoarse voice sounded again.

Li Xiu let go of the handle of the knife, looked around the rows of bookshelves not far away, and then looked at the old eunuch in front of him and said:

"I have heard that there are other mysteries beyond the three realms of body training. I wonder if my father-in-law can explain a thing or two for me?"

Chapter 1 Defects

Hearing this, the old eunuch's eyes flashed, he looked at Li Xiu for a moment, and then slowly straightened up, but the submissiveness between his brows never changed at all.

"The old slave has a little humble opinion, the general must not be offended."

Li Xiu didn't say a word, just stood there silently, listening to what the old eunuch said.

With his current martial arts practice, being able to get close to him without being noticed by him, presumably only a master of the body training realm can do this.

There is no doubt that this unremarkable old eunuch is obviously a master of body training.

Li Xiu was not too surprised by this fact. The arsenal in the inner palace was originally a place where martial arts from all over the world gathered. It would be strange if the eunuchs guarding Tibet were too low in martial arts!

"Above body training, it's called the Inner Qi Realm, which refers to the extreme inner strength of the body, the extremely thick qi and blood, and the spontaneous sense of qi..."

The old eunuch spoke word by word, and Li Xiu had a general understanding of the body-refinement realm that had always existed in fantasy, following the old eunuch's words.

According to what the old eunuch said, the ultimate purpose of the so-called three realms of body training is actually to strengthen the body and strengthen the qi and blood, until a limit is reached. When this limit is reached, a trace of internal energy will naturally be born in the dantian!

And at this step, it is above the legendary body training!

That is what the old eunuch called the inner atmosphere!

After finishing the words, Li Xiu asked, "What's the difference between the Inner Qi state and the Body Refining state?"

"This old slave feels that the difference between the two realms is not too big, but the magical effect of inner energy can be called infinite."

"What do you mean by that?"

"The inner qi comes from the qi and blood, and the qi is moved by the heart. It is infinitely wonderful. The old slave has been immersed in the inner qi for several years, but it is still difficult to see the whole picture of the inner qi. This is the old slave's understanding of the inner qi. If the general does not If you dislike it, you can use it as a reference."

Between words, the old eunuch took out a booklet from his arms and handed it to Li Xiu.

The words caught his ears, Li Xiu took the booklet, bowed to the old eunuch, and walked into the room without saying anything more after saluting.

The layout of the arsenal in the inner palace is similar to that of the Jinyiwei Sutra Library. Although there is only this floor, the collection of books is far from comparable to that of the Jinyiwei Sutra Library.

Looking around, there are nearly a hundred bookshelves full of books. To Li Xiu's surprise, although it is called the Arsenal, not all of them are martial arts secret books.

All kinds of ancient books that are almost lost in the outside world can be seen everywhere here.

Hundreds of schools of thought, collections of the imperial palace, various sects and sects in the rivers and lakes, it can be said to be all-encompassing!

After only a rough turn around, Li Xiu couldn't move his feet. If it was possible, he really wanted to stay here for a few years with peace of mind, to survey ancient and modern times, read through various classics, and enrich himself thoroughly. own background.

But obviously, this idea is difficult to realize in today's world.

Of course, he didn't choose this path, and everything in front of him is by no means within his reach.

This time, Li Xiu's purpose in coming to the arsenal was not all for those advanced martial arts cheats.

Although the martial arts cheats are good, even if there is such a heaven-defying opportunity as the system panel, many martial arts still require a lot of time and energy to practice. .

However, the classics of various schools do not have this restriction at all. As long as the energy is sufficient, it is not a delusion to read through the ancient and modern times and fully comprehend the wisdom of the sages!

Of course, Li Xiu didn't want to browse hundreds of ancient and modern classics for the sake of a little literary talent in his chest.

By reading the classics of military strategists, one can clearly understand the way of strategists, command troops and rule the army, conquer on the battlefield, and have a gully in the chest.

And reading other classics, you can also understand the truths of the world. The most important thing is that Li Xiu found that the more classics you read through, the more you understand the truths, and the state of mind will be better. It is also more and more different.

In other words, the accumulation of knowledge has sublimated people's minds and hearts bit by bit.

Although Li Xiu didn't have any idea of ​​creating a book and creating Tao, but in the dark, Li Xiu always had a feeling that the sublimation of this thought and the change of mood are definitely a good thing!

Besides, even if it is an illusion, reading clearly and having a gap in your chest is by no means a bad thing.

While his thoughts were flowing, Li Xiu casually took out a book from the bookshelf, and the three characters of Tao Te Ching on the cover came into view, and Li Xiu couldn't help being taken aback.

He has studied the Tao Te Ching for a long time, but it may have been too esoteric, so it has not appeared on the system panel for a long time.

This is a Tao Te Ching!

The word fate can be described as wonderful!

"Ok?"

After flipping through a few pages, Li Xiu frowned, obviously a little surprised.

The Tao Te Ching hidden in the inner palace is quite different from the ones circulated outside!

The old sayings are inherently obscure and difficult to understand. If one word is different, the words and meanings can be said to be very different, not to mention the different chapters and paragraphs. It can be said that they are two books!

After flipping through it briefly, Li Xiu understood a little bit.

There is no doubt that the Tao Te Ching in the Inner Palace is obviously more complete in meaning and length.

As for the volume I obtained outside the palace, it is estimated that it has been passed down and published for too long, and there are many mistakes and omissions, or it may be a version modified by later generations.

At this point in his thoughts, Li Xiu couldn't help but frowned. He seemed to understand why the system panel still didn't include the Tao Te Ching after studying for so long.

but……

Who can guarantee that there are no mistakes or omissions in the Tao Te Ching hidden in the inner palace?

Furthermore, most of the ancient books and scriptures of various schools of thought have spanned an extremely long period of time. After such a long time, how many books have been handed down that are exactly the same as the original original books?

It's not the original book, and the philosophies of the sages are naturally different, and there are differences... It seems that it has become a little uncertain to want to record it on the system panel... and turn it into one's own foundation...

As thoughts flowed, Li Xiu also sighed helplessly. If this is the case, then it is really empty into the treasure mountain, but it is difficult to gain anything!

After all, after such a long period of time, it is not an easy task to find ancient books and documents without any mistakes or omissions.

After pondering for a moment, Li Xiu also shook his head. This point must be too entangled. Even if it is as he thought, the function of this system panel is enough to defy the sky. Compared with the overall function, there are only a few defects. Nothing.

He put away the Tao Te Ching hidden in the Inner Palace, found several classics from various schools that were closer to the present age, and several volumes of top martial arts, and then walked out of the arsenal.

As for the old eunuch, Li Xiu didn't bother him anymore, that manual was enough, if he bothered again, it would be a bit embarrassing.

……

Chapter 1 Preparations

As night fell, unlike the usual silence, the Jintaifang camp at this moment was extremely noisy.

The sound of the collision of soldiers, the sound of hurried footsteps, and the chaotic sound of shouting and shouting, looking around, the entire camp can be seen everywhere in a scene of fiery noise.

The entire brave guard battalion, with more than ten thousand soldiers, has been completely transformed into a state of preparation for war following Li Xiu's military order.

It is not as simple as simply giving an order and rushing out with more than ten thousand soldiers.

As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses move, the food and grass go first.

Now, what Li Xiu can do is to transform the entire brave guard battalion, with more than ten thousand soldiers, from the state of daily drills to the state of being ready to go out at any time.

This point is nothing to the entire Yongwei Battalion. After Li Xiu was promoted to the head of the Yongwei Battalion, he had practiced many times.

Nowadays, it is just as usual, going through the procedure that has been done many times again.

After the procedure is over, you have to wait for the news from the court.

Whether it's mobilizing civilians, raising food and grass, or ordering and arranging orders for the counties and cities in the marching combat area, all of them can be described as extremely cumbersome and complicated.

And all of this is indispensable before an army goes out.

If one of the links is missing, a little carelessness will lead to the collapse of the whole world.

In the Ming Dynasty, that civil fort change was the best historical lesson.

The accumulation of three generations, the elites of Megatron Mobei, under the control of Zhu Mingmen's gods, lost their dynasty once, and almost brought the kingdom to its knees.

One of the biggest reasons is that Zhu Mingmen's pig brain is really not good, and he is about to go to war as soon as he slaps his head. He thinks he is wise and powerful, and there are hundreds of thousands of elites in the Beijing camp. Regardless of the obstruction of civil and military officials, Mingmen pulled them all out in one go!

Children's play house is not so stupid!

Now, although the Yongwei Battalion has no more than ten thousand soldiers, Li Xiu reckoned that with the urgency of the officials in the court today, the preparations for the Yongwei Battalion's expedition could not be completed in less than half a month.

Even though he knew that there was still such a long time, Li Xiu didn't intend to wait. After all, this time, he didn't simply go out to fight. He also had his own plan, which was how to effectively and covertly expand the strength of the Yongwei Battalion.

This point, compared to the special situation of the Yongwei Battalion, is not too difficult.

Since the complete evolution of the military system, any army in ancient and modern times, in wartime, is composed of three parts.

That is the soldiers, auxiliary soldiers, and civilian husbands.

The soldiers are responsible for frontal combat, and the auxiliary soldiers are to cooperate with the soldiers to fight. When necessary, they can also be filled into the battle camp to make up for the damage of the battle camp, replenish the troops, or be responsible for the operation of the logistics system and other things.

As for the civilian husband, he was recruited to be responsible for transporting grain and grass, and doing all the dirty work.

As for the Yongwei Battalion, because of its special status as a pro-army, coupled with Emperor Tianqi's high regard at the beginning, it led to the entire Yongwei Battalion, with more than ten thousand soldiers, all of them were soldiers, and there was no auxiliary soldier.

Under such circumstances, it is not difficult to expand the system of auxiliary troops, in addition to the fact that foreign countries have no right to interfere with the Yongwei Battalion.

But Li Xiu naturally didn't simply want to expand a group of stragglers and rogues.

The expansion of auxiliary troops this time, except for the organizational system and military pay, everything else is prepared to directly compete with the soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion.

In this way, the ordnance armor naturally needs to be prepared in advance.

This time, Li Xiu not only sent people to the military battle bureau many times to urge the distribution of soldiers and armaments, but even prepared to bring all the wealth accumulated by the Yongwei Battalion during this period of time.

Since war is unavoidable, then make good use of the upcoming so-called wars against thieves!

War instead of training.

Use blood to pour out the foundation of his brave guard battalion!
