In fact, there is another point that Chen Fan did not mention. This point is also very crucial. It can be said to be the source of Chen Fan's confidence. In ancient Chinese history, Chen Fan remembers that during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there was the only peasant uprising led by monks, but it was very rare. It was about to be wiped out. Although he felt that this era was not exactly the same as ancient China, Chen Fan suspected that there was some connection. The uprising did not last more than three months. Chen Fan believed that it would not happen this time, so he did not hesitate. Oppose Dean Wei's point of view.
"I don't think so." Xu Zhen thought for a while and said, "Although what Fasheng said has some truth, it is too pessimistic. The Northern Wei Dynasty was brutal and the people were in poverty. Rouran, we have Daliang suppressing us in the south, and it is difficult to move for a while. It is the right time; Fucheng and Bohai County in the Northern Wei Dynasty have been lost, and if we want to send troops to attack them, we lack the geographical advantage; as for the use of troops, we can try to capture them quickly The army is growing rapidly, and there will be no shortage of people who can conquer and fight well. It will be difficult for the Northern Wei Dynasty to win."
Xu Zhen's cleverness was that she did not support Dean Wei's statement that Fa Qing would sweep half of the Wei Kingdom, but instead attacked Chen Fan's assertion that he would be defeated in three months. It was relatively easy, and this was what Chen Fan wanted to see. to the result. If you want to stand out among all living beings, you must have amazing talents, accurate views on things, and come up with ideas that will lead to defeat in three months. Once Faqing is really defeated, he will immediately gain a large number of fans, but if it is not Failure within three months will also leave a boastful impression and affect future reputation. It can be said that risks and opportunities coexist. The reason why Chen Fan dared to bet was that Chen Fan came from time travel and had confidence in the future that ordinary people did not have.
Chen Fan did not intend to continue the discussion in depth, because for uncertain things in the future, time is the only criterion for success. Today, Chen Fan's goal has been achieved, and it will definitely leave a deep memory for Dean Wei. Immediately He said, "What senior brother said makes sense. Let's see how the situation develops in the future. Dean Wei, the student is being rude." After saying that, Chen Fan returned to the group. This is to leave a chance to meet in the future. If you win, this move is equivalent to stepping down for others. If you lose, it also means that it was just an academic dispute at that time. Let's talk about your own opinions, and you are not arrogant about thinking that you are definitely right.
Dean Wei was quite satisfied with Chen Fan's final attitude, while Dean Lu was quite satisfied. He immediately said to Dean Wei, "Does Dean Wei have any other suggestions? If not, we will go back first."
"Okay, Dean Lu seems to have accepted a good disciple." Although Dean Wei is a bit arrogant, he is a teacher after all, and he still has a love for talents. He may not completely agree with Chen Fan. However, he still recognized Chen Fan's ideas and expressions, so he nodded and said.
"Haha, Dean Wei is overly complimentary." Lu Yan nodded to Dean Wei and led everyone back to the original private room.
"Fa Sheng, have you ever studied the art of war?" Lu Yan asked after everyone sat down.
"No." Chen Fan didn't know if the original owner had ever studied it, but he hadn't seen any relevant books in the room, and he didn't know how to do it anyway, so he answered immediately.
"Okay, Master, I have a book of war here. You can follow me back to get it later. This can be regarded as a gift from Master to you." As the dean of Go, he naturally knows the art of war. In this era, the art of war and chess skills are merged into After studying one subject, I saw that Chen Fan was very talented in the use of weapons, so he immediately decided to pass down the military book in his collection, called "Tai Gong's Art of War". Lu Yu has passed this book to several disciples, all of whom he thinks have good talents. Of course, it is a handwritten copy. The same is true for the one he decided to give to Chen Fan. He cultivates several talents. Of course, how much he learns depends on his personal talent.
"Thank you, Master." He didn't expect to receive a military book. This was an unexpected surprise for Chen Fan, and it also showed that his performance just now was recognized by Lu Xian. Chen Fan discovered that this society was different from modern times. Most of the books were not sold in libraries. Firstly, there was no printing technology. Secondly, the high-ranking nobles controlled knowledge and did not want to live among the people. They only used it to train their own disciples. Therefore, it is not easy to get a good book. This was actually one of the reasons why Chen Fan wanted to become Lu Yan's teacher and went to attend the class.
When we get together and have a good time, Chen Fan inevitably has to toast his master a few more times. With the foundation of Zhen Yuan and the ability to collect qi, the power of his wine will naturally increase. After three rounds of drinking, everyone is enjoying themselves and the drinking is over. At the banquet, it is natural to have a meal with the master.
"Master, how about a game of chess today?"
"Okay, master lost last time, and today we have to make up for it." Lu Yan agreed readily. Of the people around him, Zhongkai naturally lay down again, and the other two wanted to watch.
Playing chess today, Chen Fan decided that of course he was going to lose. He had to give back the teacher's face, explaining that it was just a fluke last time, but he couldn't lose badly, and he couldn't let the teacher see it. Losing in chess is also a skill, and in the end it turned out to be true. It's a small loss. Chen Fan never thinks that he must win when playing chess, and it doesn't hurt to lose occasionally.
Lu Fan was in a great mood after winning the chess game and said: "Fa Sheng's chess skills are getting better and better. I have been trying to figure out these 19 moves in the past few days, but I almost lost again. Fa Sheng's chess skills are not close to the fourth level." , but should reach the fourth level." Dean Lu, who won the chess game, raised Fa Sheng's chess level again.
"Master is too complimentary. I heard that Puming Temple has "Lan Ke Pu". I wonder if Master has read it?"
"Puming Temple has "Lan Ke Pu"? I have never heard of it. Are you sure?" Lu Ban asked.
"Well, what Yajun said is correct."
"If there is one in Puming Temple, it must be in the hands of Tan Jingtai. He comes from Xiangguo Temple in Luoyang and has many contacts with northern high schools. Moreover, he loves playing chess. He is responsible for the current chess style of Puming Temple." Lu Yan guessed.
"Then how about we go take a look tomorrow?" Chen Fan will return to Hudu the day after tomorrow, and he will have time tomorrow.
"Very good." Lu Xian agreed. Finally, everyone came to a discussion. Dean Lu led the team, followed by Chen Fan and Liang Xiu. They met in front of the gate of Puming Temple at 9 o'clock in the morning, and the others did not go.
Then everyone played a few more games of chess, and then dispersed after having dinner. Lu Yan came by car by himself and left first with Lu Zifeng and Shi Zhongkai. Chen Fan was responsible for sending Liang Xiu back, and then went to Meiyuan to collect the military documents.
Chen Fan and Liang Xiu came out last. Besides Hou Feng, there was also a young man outside who Chen Fan had seen. He was Liang Xiu's bodyguard.
The four of them went downstairs. Hou Feng had arranged for a vehicle to wait at the door. They got in the car and arrived at the door of Liang Xiu's house in a short while.
"Brother Liang, school is about to start. I have prepared the four treasures of the study for you. I don't know if they are suitable for use. It's just my thoughts." Chen Fan took out the gift he had prepared and handed it to the guard standing behind Liang Xiu. .
"Fasheng is so polite. It's really not necessary. I've already asked you to treat me today. How can I accept your gift again?" Previously, Chen Fan had asked Hou Feng to pay for the meal.
"I've wanted to invite you to dinner for a long time, but I didn't have time until today. I was in Meiyuan last time. Thank you so much. This is just a little thought from me. Please see how I prepared it, and don't show anyone else."
"Well, thank you so much Fa Sheng."
"You're welcome, see you tomorrow." Liang Xiu's guard took the gift, and Chen Fan and Hou Feng stepped into the carriage and drove towards Lu Yu's house.
"Mr. Lang, I spent three hundred coins at Cuixiang Pavilion today, including thirty coins as a reward for storytellers. This Chang Jing is usually in Yichun Garden for odd numbers and Nanfeng Pavilion for even numbers."
"Very good." Chen Fan found that although Hou Feng was sometimes upright, he was still reassuring in his work. "We will go to Puming Temple after breakfast tomorrow morning. We'd better take a carriage and ask the coachman to pick us up tomorrow morning." Chen Fan continued.
"Yes, Langjun."
The carriage arrived at Meiyuan after a while. Butler Han, whom I met last time, was already waiting at the door. "Mr. Chen is here. The master has just arrived and asked me to take him to the study."
"Okay, I've got Butler Han here." He turned around and motioned for Hou Feng to bring a gift and follow him.
Butler Han led the two to the door of the study. Chen Fan thought for a moment, took the gift from Hou Feng, and entered the study alone.
The study room was relatively simple in layout. What reassured Chen Fan was that Dean Lu placed a round pottery inkstone on his desk. Chen Fan had seen this type of inkstone in the study room. The price was not expensive, less than a hundred yuan, and Chen Fan wanted to give it as a gift. There was no conflict with the inkstone, and he immediately said: "Master, I wanted to visit Master today, so I bought a small gift and asked Master to accept it." After that, he placed the Xiangyun three-legged stone inkstone on Lu Fan's On the desk.
"Fa Sheng is already here, why do you bring gifts? Didn't I tell you last time that you are not allowed to bring gifts." Lu Ban looked at Chen Fan and said seriously.
"I know what Master is like, but I don't dare to buy anything expensive. It's just a small gift to express my feelings. Master can't help his disciples express their feelings, right? Master, just don't dislike it."
"You! Don't do this next time."
"Yes, Master."
"Come on, Fa Sheng, take a look at this military book. This is "Tai Gong's Art of War", also known as "Six Tao", written by Jiang Wang, the master of King Wen of Zhou Dynasty. There are six volumes in total, divided into Wen Tao, Wu Tao, Long Tao, Hu Tao, Leopard Tao, Dog Tao, nearly 20,000 words."
Chen Fan looked at the thick stack of rice paper, with regular small characters on it, and was very happy. This military book study has undoubtedly made up for his shortcomings in the art of war, and with the help of "inheritance", it can take as fast as ten days You can learn it in half a month, or even in a month. By then, your chess skills may really be able to stand above the fourth level.
"Thank you, Master." Chen Fan said sincerely as he took the Grand Duke's military book.
"You're welcome, this is what a teacher should do. Fasheng, you are very talented in the art of war and chess skills, but you have to remember that chess skills only involve how to use soldiers, and the real art of war, the key is how to use soldiers." In military training, the soldiers must be united and able to use their arms and fingers like an arm. This is the key to leading troops. Volume 3 "Dragon Tao" and Volume 6 "Dog Tao" talk about how to choose generals, coaches, select soldiers, and command the military. You need to read more, as it may not be easy to understand for those who have never been in contact with the military. If you don’t understand, come and ask me.”
"Yes, thank you Master." Looking at Dean Lu who was slightly tired, Chen Fan continued: "Master, please take a rest early. We will see you tomorrow."
"Okay, you can come back too, and I won't keep you here."
Chen Fan said goodbye and left Meiyuan.
