The same thing falls into the hands of different people, and the usage and situation are as different as clouds and mud.

Ordinary barbed wire, in the hands of Chuning, can only be used to enclose the land to stop wild animals, and in the hands of Yan Lingge and other generals, it is a magic weapon to kill the enemy and win.

After testing the combat effect, Mrs. Yan, the head of the General Staff Headquarters, and Yan Lingge, the head of the Military Affairs Department, made a joint decision to include this barbed wire as an army weapon, and developed a series of related tactics focusing on the barbed wire.

At the end of October, the new tactical training was completed, but the weather in the north was already cold. At this time, the General Staff finally formulated a plan to capture Black Bone City and held a military meeting.

"As everyone thinks, the autumn harvest is just over now. It coincides with winter planting, and the weather is getting colder and colder. It is not the best time to launch a battle." At the general-level military meeting, Mrs. Yan, the deputy chief of the General Staff Department, explained : "But this is for Xianbei and Goguryeo."

Looking around at the heads of the various departments sitting, Madam Yan's eyes finally fell on Chuning, and continued: "Our army has all winter clothes, even foot clothes, even if it is colder, it will not hinder walking. Therefore, You can use this opportunity to attack the enemy's unpreparedness."

Chu Ning thought for a while, and felt that what Madam Yan said was reasonable, so he nodded and asked, "What about the specific battle plan?"

"Because Black Bone City is a mountain city, Fengming's cavalry lost their advantage in attacking, so they can only stay at Muyang City." Mrs. Yan said: "In this battle, all our infantry are expected to go into battle."

"There is a saying in "Sun Tzu's Art of War", if you encircle him if you are ten, attack if you are five, and fight if you are twice as many." Chu Ning sat on the back of the chair with arms folded, and asked again: "Our army has only ten thousand infantry so far. people, and Black Bone City alone has more than [-] defenders, how can we capture the city in this battle?"

"Persuade to surrender first, or take it by force if the persuasion fails." Madam Yan pointed to Black Bone City: "If it fails to be taken by force, then the Military Intelligence Department and Special Warfare Department hiding in the city will cooperate."

The Military Information Department and Special Warfare Department of Liaodong County Mansion are mysterious departments both externally and internally. Not many people know the details. If it is not necessary, Chu Ning and Mrs. Yan do not want to expose these two departments now.

After this reorganization, the number of Special Warfare Division doubled. In addition to the manpower brought by Chen Longjian to protect Bai Su, Muyang City also left two bureau-level troops. Madam Yan had already dispatched them in batches to bury Bai Su in Black Bone City. nailed.

Knowing that Mrs. Yan had planned long ago, Chuning asked, "Who will lead the army this time?"

"Sun Xing, the chief of the command department, is the chief general, Chu Rou, the chief of the military affairs department, and Yang Houde, the chief of the mobilization department." Mrs. Yan said: "Ling Ge led the Fengming war department to stay in Muyang City, and the old man will go with the army in person. Black Bone City."

Seeing that Mrs. Yan was physically strong and in good spirits, Chu Ning nodded in agreement, "How many chances do you have for winning?"

Madam Yan made some calculations and replied, "Seven points."

While listening, Chuning looked at Sun Xing who couldn't help himself, Chu Rou who was eager to try, and Yang Houde who was smiling innocently, and said: "President Sun, President Chu, President Yang , please tell us about your tactical arrangements."

Presumably the three of them had already received the news that they were going to lead the army, and when it comes to tactics at this moment, they are quite methodical, and Madam Yan will make up for the deficiencies.Chu Ning, Wei Jing and other generals deliberated over and over until there were no more flaws before they formally determined the final tactics for this dispatch.

After the military discussion was over, only Chu Ning and Feng Jiuqing were left in the conference room. Seeing Feng Jiuqing hesitated to speak, Chu Ning couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart.

Feng Jiuqing listened from the beginning to the end, and made many suggestions, but at the moment her expression was gloomy, and she was not happy after thinking about it.

"Miss Qing, this is..."

"It doesn't matter." Feng Jiuqing rubbed her forehead, and said annoyedly: "Just thinking about this war, and many people will die, I feel a little sad."

"I can understand Miss Qing's feelings." Chu Ning pulled aside the chair next to Feng Jiuqing and sat down: "Two years ago, war, killing, and death... were all out of reach for me. I even thought that , I will spend my whole life in a peaceful and prosperous world, worrying about what to eat and what to play every day, and sad because I love her and she loves her every day."

Feng Jiuqing turned her head slightly, looked at Chu Ning's side face, and listened to her continue to say: "But later, I discovered that in the face of life and death, these things that were once regarded as great troubles are actually nothing. Not worth mentioning."

"I like peaceful and prosperous times, and hate war and killing." Chuning leaned back on the chair, raised his head and covered his eyes: "I know that in the face of the new weapons and new tactics of the Liaodong Army, whether it is Goguryeo or Xianbei, they are just waiting Lamb slaughter - but right now, I can't end the war, and I can't stop the killing..."

"Compared to many generals and officials in the court, Shijun may be a person who values ​​profit, but he is definitely not a person who despises the wealth and lives of the people." Feng Jiuqing couldn't help but sighed softly, and said sadly: "The troubled times are coming, and no one will survive. By yourself, the envoy has done a good job. Liaodong's use of troops against Goguryeo is a clever plan, it is necessary, and it is a war between Hua and Yi... The reason why I am sad is not because of this, but Jizhou... Both descendants of Yan and Huang, But there are endless civil wars... The sages once said that human nature is good, but why do they always kill each other?"

"Jizhou..." Chu Ning collected his thoughts, sat upright, thought about the information over there, and thought, "In my opinion, in a big way, it's the orthodox dispute between the Central Plains sect and the Western sect. , is the inevitable result of social injustice and people's resistance. In a small way, it is just a group of ignorant people who have been provoked and fooled by others, and they have not risen to the level of humanity."

"Why?" Feng Jiuqing couldn't help being startled, and then asked in surprise: "Isn't it because human nature is unpredictable, good and evil are unpredictable, and desires are difficult to overcome, so they kill each other?"

"Yes, but not. The good and evil of human nature is an eternal problem. The sages and sages are still in dispute, how can you and I explain clearly?" Chu Ning said, "But I can tell you a story."

Feng Jiuqing was immediately curious: "What's the story?"

"There was a father who was a butcher, and he made a living by killing pigs for others. But when he was slaughtering pigs, he was seen by his children who were less than ten years old." The back of this story was a bit heavy, and Chuning spoke slowly: , His child called a group of his friends and played a game of killing pigs. The butcher’s child got a knife and played the role of butcher, while another child played the role of pig.”

"According to the prior agreement, the kid pretending to be a butcher grabbed the kid pretending to be a pig, pushed him to the ground, picked up a butcher's knife, stabbed the knife into the neck of the kid pretending to be a pig, and then pulled and cut off his neck... ..."

Hearing this, Feng Jiuqing sat up straight involuntarily, clenched her fists tightly, pursed her lips, suppressed the discomfort in her heart, and continued to listen to Chu Ning: "At this moment, an official passed by by chance and witnessed it with his own eyes. After playing this cruel and bloody game, he immediately brought the child playing the butcher back to the government, summoned his staff, and discussed how to execute this cruel child. However, according to the state law at that time, it was impossible to judge this child who was not yet ten years old. child……"

"What then?"

"Later...then a wise old man made a suggestion, let the official hold the fruit in one hand and the gold in the other, and let the children choose." Chuning continued: "If the child pretending to be a butcher chooses the fruit, he will be punished." He is not guilty, but if he chooses gold, he will be sentenced to death."

"Ah?" Feng Jiuqing couldn't help asking: "What did the child choose in the end? Is it gold?"

"No." Chuning shook his head and said, "The kid just smiled and took the fruit in the end."

"..." Feng Jiuqing was stunned for a while, and she came back to her senses after a while, and said with a wry smile: "Your envoy is trying to tell me that human nature is inherently evil?"

"Regardless of whether human nature is inherently evil or inherently good, what I want to say is—human beings are ignorant." Chuning sighed: "That child, he just happened to see his father killing a pig, so he played a game of killing a pig. He may not know why people kill pigs, the difference between real pigs and fake pigs, and what death means, let alone good and evil, right and wrong..."

"The people in Jizhou are illiterate, they don't understand etiquette, they don't know the meaning of life and death, they don't know the difference between good and evil, they don't know the concept of ethics and morality. Most of the time, they are like the butcher's child, hearing others Say this, see others do it, so say it, do it..."

"And the Bloody Clothes Sect is because of this to lure the people to not engage in production, and to bewitch the people to indulge in pleasure?" Feng Jiuqing said, "Because these people, everyone they come into contact with behaves like this, so they have formed a culture that is different from us and others. ethics?"

Chuning nodded and said, "Exactly."

"Then how can these people change?"

"Difficult." Chuning shook his head and said, "Concepts and thoughts are hard to change, especially when these concepts and thoughts can benefit most people."

"That's right." Feng Jiuqing said with a wry smile: "According to the customs of the Bloody Clothes Sect, sisters are mostly used as wives and concubines, and they are married together, even mother and son, father and daughter..."

It is precisely because of this that the cohesion of the Bloodcloth God Sect is extremely high. When preaching, it confuses the congregants more. Once you join the religion, you can justifiably occupy your own children.

"People are born with a super learning ability, but everyone faces a very different learning environment." Chu Ning looked at Feng Jiuqing and sighed: "When we know how to read and write, we can tell right from wrong and know right from wrong. , After knowing good and evil, and understanding shame, you will start to think about life, and you will gradually learn to control your low-level desires—such as lust..."

When people's thinking level is higher, the requirements for mate selection are higher. In addition to physical appearance, they also pursue ideological resonance.

Therefore, when some people are sitting in the concert hall, listening to the symphony, while some people are sitting around the entrance of the village, listening to the little brother climbed onto the bed of the little sister on the stage, laughing happily ; while some people are busy researching and thinking, others are sitting in front of the TV, watching which Cinderella the domineering CEO falls in love with...

"But as people's thinking grows, their desires will gradually increase, won't they?" Feng Jiuqing retorted: "For example, rights, status, ideals..."

"Yes." Chuning agreed, "But it's just a small group of people, and it's often this small group of people that will turn the lives of the majority of people upside down."

"Then, what should we do about the chaos in Jizhou?" Feng Jiuqing asked, "Could it be that we can only drive the Bloody God Cult to Xianbei like what my junior sister said?"

"Jizhou Bloody God Sect has tens of thousands of believers. No matter who is in power, it is impossible to go out and kill them all." Chu Ning said: "That's why I asked Taoist Jingxu to go there and form a Quanzhen teaching."

"Could it be that this is also the method that Shijun deployed over there? I still think... this is just a dispute between the Central Plains sect and the Western Region sect." Feng Jiuqing was stunned for a while, she knew that last year Chu Ning sent someone to general Jingxu to say The leader invited him to Jizhou, and he also knew that Taoist Jingxu established a sect there to preach, but he didn't know that this sect's orthodox dispute was actually specially arranged by Chu Ning: "But in this way..."

"In this way, the people of Jizhou will be divided, right?" Chuning said, pointing in the direction of Chang'an: "Do you know why that eminent monk from the Western Regions in the palace believes in him?"

Feng Jiuqing suddenly understood: "Do you want to borrow Buddhism from the Western Regions to fight against the aristocratic family?"

"Yes." Chu Ning nodded and said, "Confucianism's paternal power and son's obedience have created a large family that has suppressed the imperial power, while the deceptive and paralyzing nature of Buddhism can quickly spread and gather ordinary people. Use Buddhism and the people to fight against the aristocratic family, then the emperor can stabilize the chaos after eradicating the world."

After Emperor Wu of the previous dynasty only respected Confucianism, Confucianism developed unprecedentedly, which not only affected the customs and habits of the people in the Central Plains, but also divided the imperial power. It is precisely because of this that the person in the palace believed in the eminent monks of the Western Regions so much—because He needs another kind of thinking to refute the differentiation of Confucianism, and Buddhism, which persuades people to do good, talks about karma and reincarnation, and can play a role in stabilizing society, just suits his needs.

As for Chuning's support of Taoism, its purpose is just to prepare for a rainy day - Confucianism emphasizes the power of the father and the obedience of the son, and the superiority of the husband and the inferiority of the wife. Big trouble is coming.

Since ancient times, the sword is a gentleman, and the sword is a bandit, but what stands above the sword is the pen!

The sword can kill the body, but the pen can kill the heart, and even kill people forever!

Therefore, Chuning had to support a school of thought that was beneficial to him—Taoism, which emphasized the harmony of yin and yang, and was much more enlightened than Confucianism and Buddhism on the issue of gender. Although it did not explicitly put forward the slogan of equality between men and women, its other Gender-minded, yet egalitarian.

That's why Chuning invited Daoist Jingxu to Jizhou to take advantage of the chaos.

The author has something to say: Let me explain, the deceptive and paralyzing nature of Buddhism written here does not represent Xiao Mo’s own views, nor does it mean to belittle it!
