my grandfather was qin shi huang

After time travel, when facing this era, Zhao Ying thought more than once, why were the armies of the Six Kingdoms not a match for the Qin Army?

There may be many reasons.

Many people can put forward a set of logical and self-consistent reasons from their own perspective.

But an unavoidable question for everyone is that the Qin Army, stimulated by the military merit system and the crazy desire to fight from the people to the soldiers, has always maintained a strong and far superior army than the other six countries. powerful combat effectiveness.

Why did the Qin army fail later?

After unifying the six kingdoms, expelling the Xiongnu from the north, and conquering Baiyue from the south, the Qin Dynasty actually faced a very serious problem, that is, the military merit and nobility code on which it was based was weak and lost its powerful stimulating effect.

The old Qin people who were clamoring to fight suddenly had no goal. Many of them had to return to their fields and pick up their hoes again.

This is actually equivalent to the collapse of many years of faith and pursuit.

An army without ideals and beliefs, an army that does not know why it is fighting is like a tiger without teeth, and a great army without its claws.

Being defeated is a matter of time.

How did Liu Bang stand out back then?

It's not that his strategy or wisdom is better than that of other princes, but that his gangster-style interpersonal dealing mode is invisibly in line with the nature of human nature.

Wealth together!

Follow me, hello, me, hello, everyone, let’s get promoted, get rich, and enjoy glory together!

In fact, this is another model of "military meritorious service".

Throughout the changes of dynasties, there has actually been such an invisible "military meritorious title" that plays an important role that cannot be ignored, uniting more and more people and forces to unleash powerful combat effectiveness.

Therefore, from the day Zhao Ying wanted to understand this truth, he was thinking about one thing. What would you do if one day you mastered an armed force?

His answer is——

Forge the soul of the army!

He wants to bring out an army with his own beliefs.

This army can't just be to enhance his title, nor can it just be to make his wife a shadow. He also has to find a reason for them to protect them from generation to generation.

Therefore, after it was confirmed that he had the first batch of power that he could control in his own hands, this was the first thing he thought about.

Under the dim yellow oil lamp, Zhao Ying's beautiful eyebrows sometimes relaxed and sometimes frowned. He was busy until late at night, then he breathed a sigh of relief, read his own, and then carefully collected it.

In order to avoid a tragedy like Wang Mang's, although he had come up with a rough framework, he did not dare to use it easily. He needed to invite some elites of this era, even the First Emperor, to come out to help him take the pulse and take the helm. .

Fortunately, things have just started and everything is still too late.

Early the next morning, Zhao Ying got up as usual, worked hard, and practiced the assassination and slashing skills of bow and arrow and Chang Ge. The effect surprised him, because he found that despite not being able to exercise well for two consecutive days, his physical fitness not only did not stagnate, but actually increased significantly!

Not only did he officially break the 3000-minute mark in the 6-meter rapid obstacle course, but the 150-pound stone lock was also obviously much easier in his hands.

Is it because I haven't trained so hard these past two days?

One piece and one piece of relaxation, the way of civility and martial arts?

If Zhao Ying realized something, he put down the Changge in his hand and went back to his small courtyard. After washing up, he changed into fresh clothes and came out. After having breakfast, he took the gifts that the steward had prepared and went straight to Wucheng. Hou Mansion.

Today is the day to apprentice with Wang Jian and learn the art of war from him, so don’t neglect it.

As one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, Wang Jian was a true master of military art. To be more precise, he was a military planner. This kind of master of military art emphasized "defending the country with justice, using troops with surprise, planning first and then fighting, and both Situation, including yin and yang, use skills." It pays the most attention to the study of military strategy, taking into account the strengths of various schools of situation, yin and yang, and techniques. It is the most upright and rigorous method of warfare. It can be said to be the soul of military strategists.

Another representative figure of military strategists was Han Xin, who emerged a few years later.

This young man from Huaiyin became a god in one battle, completely establishing his status as a soldier.

But today's Han Xin is probably just the tall commoner boy who likes wearing swords all day long under Huaiyin City, while Wang Jian is the pinnacle of military strategists in this era.

Therefore, this time, Zhao Ying did not jump at all. According to the tradition of this era, he followed the etiquette.

Take off your clothes and belt, and formally come to the door in a grand and solemn manner.

Except that he didn't have any elders to accompany him, he did everything he could.

Therefore, Wang Jian also followed the etiquette and asked Wang Li to greet him at the gate early in the morning. Tongwuhou Wang Bi personally welcomed him out of the middle gate.

"I've seen the young master——"

As soon as Zhao Ying came in, Wang Jian, who had gray hair and beard, stood up to greet him. Zhao Ying quickly took a few steps and helped Wang Jian back before he bowed down respectfully.

"Student Zhao Ying, meet the teacher——"

As he said that, he held the tea that the Wang family had prepared in his hands and handed it to Wang Jian.

Wang Jian sat upright and received this great gift from Zhao Ying. His expression softened and he asked Zhao Ying to sit down.

"Have you ever read military literature before?"

"I have read several military books collected by my father-in-law, such as "Sima Fa", "Wei Liaozi", "Six Taoists" and "Wuzi". It's just that the student is stupid and only knows the general outline. I don't know why, so I still ask a teacher. Advice…”

Wang Jian nodded, not surprised.

For the children of ordinary people, these books may be rare to see, but for the emperor's eldest grandson, reading them is so normal. Nowadays, all the books in the world are collected in Xianyang.

"I've read it too, I've also read it..."

Wang Li finally found a topic that he could compare with Zhao Ying. He was beaming at the side and eager to try. Looking at the posture, if Wang Jian hadn't been there, he would have wanted to personally teach the young master the art of war.

Wang Jian glanced at his grandson and said nothing.

He is still satisfied with this grandson. Although he is a bit reckless in his actions, he is still solid in learning the art of war and never jumps. And if you say you have read it, you really have read it.

Wang Jian originally thought that Zhao Ying's reading was probably the same as his grandson's reading. Who knew that after briefly mentioning a few words, he was surprised to find that the emperor's eldest grandson's so-called reading was clearly modest. .

Where have you read this?

This is obviously hard work!

No matter which part I mention, I can recite it backwards and forwards!

Looking at the eldest grandson who still didn't realize he was dead, he suddenly felt that his grandson was not good enough.

"You're a useless thing. Look at this young master, and then look at you? Well! I'll check your recitation of "The March" tomorrow. If there are any mistakes or omissions, watch your ass!"

Wang Li: ...

I shouldn't have come!
