Bai Qi looked at Zhang Ji calmly, but there was still a hint of expectation in his sharp eyes.
But Zhang Ji hesitated.
Perhaps in everyone's eyes, the opportunity to become a disciple of Bai Qi and learn the art of war is absolutely rare and should never be hesitated.
If it were Li Xin, Qiang Yu and other military strategists, they would probably just kowtow and worship.
In fact, Zhang Ji didn't have such an impulse. That was an opportunity for the God of War Bai Qi to teach the art of war in person!
But inheriting Bai Qi's art of war will inevitably mean more responsibilities.
The first responsibility is that of the Bai family in Yiyi.
That year, after the death of Duke Wu of Qin, the throne of Bai Wei, the heir of Duke Wu of Qin, was taken away by Qin Degong, the half-brother of Duke Wu of Qin, and the land of Pingyang was granted to Prince Bai.
And Pingyang is Yiyi.
Yiyi was originally the fiefdom of Marquis Shen, a nobleman of the Western Zhou Dynasty. After Shenhou made his capital in Yiyi, it was renamed Pingyang. Later, Shenhou joined forces with the Quanrong to capture the Zhou capital Haojing, forcing the Zhou royal family to move eastward, leaving the Qin State to confront the Quanrong and other foreign tribes.
Later, the State of Qin destroyed the State of Shen and moved its capital from Xiquanqiu to Pingyang, and later to Yongcheng, so Pingyang was renamed Yiyi.
The descendants of Prince Bai took Bai as their surname.
Therefore, Bai Qi is actually a branch of the Ying surname of the Qin State, just like the Xianyang Hua family of the filial son Ying Hua.
If you have Bai Qi's military inheritance, you will naturally be Bai Qi's disciple.
And as a disciple, how could he not need to take care of the Bai family in Yiyi?
In addition to taking care of the Bai family, Zhang Ji will also assume the title of Bai Qi's disciple, which means huge pressure.
This is different from when he became a disciple of Lu Goujian. Even the Six-fingered Black Man thought that Lu Goujian was just living in seclusion and did not know about Lu Goujian's death. However, Bai Qi's death was known to the world.
Why did you, a stupid young man who just started leading troops, suddenly become enlightened after visiting Du You Pavilion?
Coupled with Zhang Ji's care for the Bai family in Yiyi at that time, even if he didn't know that Zhang Ji could communicate with the souls of the dead, he could still guess that Zhang Ji must have received Bai Qi's inheritance from Du Youting.
But as a person who has received Bai Qi's inheritance, he must also be burdened with tremendous pressure.
If Zhao Kuo in the past was just a general from the Zhao clan, would the King of Zhao and the people of Zhao trust him so much that he would not hesitate to entrust an army of 400,000?
Maybe still, but not with so much confidence in him.
Just like Zhao Cong, who took over the army after Li Mu's death, he was also a descendant of the Zhao royal family. Even though the 300,000 Zhao army was still unable to defend the Zhao capital HD in the hands of Zhao Cong, he was not nailed by future generations like Zhao Kuo. Die on a pillar of shame.
The most fundamental reason is that expectations are too high.
The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
Zhao Kuo is the son of Zhao She, the king of Mafu, who defeated the Qin State for the first time when he led an army. Therefore, everyone thought that Zhao Kuo would be like his father Zhao She, who defeated the Qin State for the first time when he led an army. They did not consider that he lacked actual leadership. The factor of military experience, after all, didn’t Zhao She also suddenly enter the army from the internal history in charge of the national finance?
After he was defeated and killed in Changping, it was precisely because he had so much hope in Zhao Kuo that he became even more disappointed with Zhao Kuo's defeat, so that he was always talked about by the Zhao people, and was even nailed. On the pillar of shame for more than two thousand years.
Zhang Ji was really worried that he would end up like Zhao Kuo.
Moreover, the older generation of Qin State includes Wang Yan, Meng Ao, and Lu Gong, the middle-aged generation includes Wang Jian, Meng Wu, and Yang Duanhe, and the younger generation includes Meng Tian, Li Xin, Qiang Yu, Tu Sui, Ren Xiao, and Feng Wu. Zhe and others are all famous generals of the generation, and Su Jiao, Yang Wengzi, Shejian and others are also good generals of the time.
In history without him, wouldn't Qin still successfully unify the world?
In the final analysis, Great Qin never lacked generals, but lacked the people and means to stabilize internal turmoil after unifying the world.
And even if he really succeeds in his studies and makes great contributions to the unification of the world, is that really a good thing?
He proposed the construction of the Great Qin Academy, winning the hearts and favors of hundreds of families. In the future, he will also participate in the revision of Qin's various national policies by Ying Zheng's side. If Ying Zheng has another military exploit, how will Ying Zheng be settled? he?
Trust has a limit. King Zhaoxiang may not be so narrow-minded, and his favor for Bai Qi may not be weaker than Ying Zheng's favor for him, but Bai Qi is still afraid.
"You don't want to learn?"
Bai Qi was keenly aware of Zhang Ji's emotional changes. The excitement and excitement gradually subsided and turned into hesitation, reluctance and helplessness.
Bai Qi's words rang in Zhang Ji's ears. Zhang Ji came back to his senses, took a deep breath and said, leaning down and saluting: "Qin has no shortage of generals. Although there are no famous generals like Wu Anjun who are rare in ancient and modern times, they are also successors." There are people, why do you need me?"
Zhang Ji happily rejected Bai Qi, and his words were somewhat free and easy, but his trembling hands could not stop trembling, showing that his heart at the moment was not what he seemed on the surface.
It's like a peerless beauty with great needs offers you her body, but you choose to refuse because your house is full of darling wives and concubines, and you are worried about being completely drained to death. How can you not make people sigh with regret!
But...Zhang Ji, who bent down to salute, didn't notice the resentment condensed in Bai Qi's hands behind him.
"It's not up to you whether you want to learn or not!"
Bai Qi's cold words rang in Zhang Ji's ears, and a cold current seemed to invade his whole body, making him shiver. When he looked up, he saw Bai Qi's face darkened, and his eyes radiated. There is a cold and cold light in the forest.
A wave of resentment condensed around Bai Qi's body, and an unknown strong wind blew up. The white shirt behind Bai Qi made a sound in the strong wind.
Zhang Ji forgot one thing.
When you are strong enough, not only can you not do anything you don't want to do, you can also force others to do things they don't want to do.
Bai Qi is such a strong enough person, so for Bai Qi who has no other choice, his inquiry is just polite.
He never really intended to discuss it with Zhang Ji.
Moreover, as a giant military strategist who defeated all the arrogant military strategists of his generation and had no defeat in the forty years after being promoted to Zuo Shuchang, which is enough to be ranked alongside Sun Wu, Wu Qi and others, how could he not have his own arrogance.
He was not picky. He planned to teach Zhang Ji the essentials of military art that even his only son Baizhong had not learned. Yet someone actually rejected him?
A wave of resentment rushed towards Zhang Ji instantly, but at such a close distance and a sudden attack, Zhang Ji didn't have much defense against Bai Qi, so the resentment instantly knocked Zhang Ji to the ground.
Bai Qi's movements were invisible to the hundreds of masters in the formation, but although they couldn't hear what Zhang Ji said, they could clearly see Zhang Ji's state.
When they saw Zhang Ji salute to a ball of air, Bei Mingzi and Liuzhi Heixia, who knew the inside story, understood that the murderer still existed in the world, but he should exist in the form of a dead soul.
But Zhang Ji seemed to be safe and sound, and it seemed that the man and the ghost were chatting quite well, but unexpectedly, a group of resentment suddenly hit Zhang Ji.
The sneak attack of resentment made them subconsciously think of a possibility.
"It's broken! The deal is broken!" Six-fingered Black Man said secretly.
Bei Mingzi, who was always paying attention to Zhang Ji's movements and was ready to take action, immediately mobilized the power of Zhoutian Xingdou Formation to try to block the resentment that was attacking Zhang Ji. But the moment the power of the Zhou Tianxing Dou Formation entered Du You, the resentment in the entire Du You Pavilion exploded instantly, colliding with the power of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Formation.
In Du You Pavilion, Zhang Ji fell to the ground with a bang.
At the same time, strands of resentment emerged from the ground like earthworms, turning into ropes to tightly bind Zhang Ji to the ground.
The red evil aura and the black resentment entangled and merged, converging in Bai Qi's eyes, and a look of madness appeared on his plain face. Two fingers pointed at Zhang Ji's eyebrows, and a huge amount of information poured into Zhang Ji's eyes. machine's mind.
"You don't want to learn, but I want you to learn!"
