"Sun Wu reincarnated?"

Zhu Biao screamed, his eyes full of horror.

How is this possible? Although he is not sure whether this book was written by Li Jin, he is probably close to it.

But if it was really written by Li Jin, how could this book have such a high reputation? ?

Want to know how old Li Jincai is? Even if he learned the art of war from his mother's womb, it would be impossible for him to write such a powerful military book at such an age.

Although Zhu Biao didn't understand the art of war and couldn't see the quality of this book, seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance, Zhu Biao couldn't help but wonder:

"Father, have you given too much praise?"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't put it down and looked through Ji Xiao's new book in his hand, shook his head and said:

"This book teaches people how to build a strong army from scratch, whether it's selecting soldiers, forming formations, arranging troops, or unifying orders, everything is written in it completely."

"If Sun Tzu's Art of War can only be understood by military strategists, then this book can be understood by ordinary people even if they study it carefully."

"In terms of value, Sun Tzu's Art of War is certainly a priceless treasure, but Sun Tzu's Art of War can only be put on the shelf."

“And this book!!”

When Zhu Yuanzhang said this, he paused suddenly, stood up suddenly, waved his arms excitedly, and said excitedly:

"This book can be used as a guide for generals in the army. I even thought it was a military book written by a veteran general in the Ming Dynasty."

"Because the orders in this book are exactly the same as those in our Ming Dynasty. The person who wrote this book is really a genius. It is really amazing."

Zhu Biao was the eldest with an open mouth. This was the first time he had seen his father speak so highly of others, and it was in the military field.

You must know that Zhu Yuanzhang, as the founding emperor, was different from other emperors. He personally led his troops to capture the emperor.

If we say that the emperor has the highest achievements in Chinese history, we may not be able to rank him for a while.

However, if the ability to march and fight was ranked, Zhu Yuanzhang sat down on the main seat, and it is estimated that the first emperor Ying Zheng did not dare to say a word.

As a self-made emperor, what supported Zhu Yuanzhang in winning the world was his marching and fighting and his unparalleled strategic vision.

It is really incredible that such an emperor would have such a high opinion of this book.

"Father, please read this book again."

Zhu Biao hurriedly handed the military training records to Zhu Yuanzhang, hoping that Zhu Yuanzhang would take a look.

Zhu Yuanzhang no longer showed contempt and slowly sat on the dragon chair.

Sitting upright, it was like a duel between two top masters. After Zhu Yuanzhang adjusted his condition, he slowly opened the actual training record.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was an hour in the blink of an eye.

This time, Zhu Yuanzhang looked longer and frowned deeper. He kept studying one of the formation diagrams, as if he had many unsolved doubts.

After another quarter of an hour, Zhu Yuanzhang breathed a sigh of relief, as if he finally understood.

When Zhu Yuanzhang came to his senses, he realized that his forehead was covered with sweat.

“It’s really amazing workmanship and unconstrained power!!”

"Incredible, how did he come up with such a magical formation?"

"How did you come up with such a sharp weapon??"

Zhu Yuanzhang kept marveling, and his evaluation of the actual records of military training seemed to be higher than the new book of records.

Zhu Biao has been waiting nearby. He has been waiting anxiously for a long time, but he didn't dare to interrupt when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang just now.

Now hearing Zhu Yuanzhang speak, Zhu Biao hurriedly asked:

"Father, how do you like this book?"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Biao and wanted to say something, but in the end he sighed and said:

"Forget it, even if I tell you, you don't understand."

"Go, send someone to call Xu Da and Liu Bowen."

Under Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions, Liu Bowen and Xu Da quickly came to the study room.

The two met outside the Meridian Gate and learned that they had been summoned by Zhu Yuanzhang at the same time. They thought something big had happened.

He hurried up to the study room, for fear of delaying the important event.

But the moment Liu Bowen saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he knew that they had guessed wrong.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang looked happy, he didn't look like something big had happened.

"I will see you, Your Majesty."

"Hahaha, you are finally here."

Zhu Yuanzhang personally walked down the hall, helped the two of them up, and then laughed and said:

"We got two treasures today, let's share them with you two."

"baby?"

Xu Da and Liu Bowen were both confused. They must know that Zhu Yuanzhang was usually thrifty and disdained those rare treasures.

How could he collect any treasures?

Zhu Yuanzhang ignored them, but solemnly took out two thin booklets from his arms and gave one to each of Xu Da and Liu Bowen.

Because he loved these two books so much, Zhu Yuanzhang had already kept them in his personal collection.

Xu Da looked at the thin book in his hand and really didn't understand what was so valuable about this book.

Seeing the confusion in Xu Da's eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang directly ordered loudly:

"Show us immediately!"

Xu Da and Liu Bowen quickly opened the book and started reading.

Xu Da was reading actual military training records, while Liu Bowen was reading Ji Xiao's new book.

Like Zhu Yuanzhang, these two people couldn't control themselves as soon as they saw the first paragraph, and couldn't help but read it carefully.

However, Xu Da's expression was that his eyes were shining, sometimes he looked surprised, and sometimes he scratched his head, which made people dumbfounded.

Liu Bowen's face, which had always been calm, kept showing up after reading the contents of the book.

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately picked up the teacup and sipped the tea slowly.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye. After Xu Da saw the last line of the book, he suddenly raised his head and asked:

"Sir, is this a military strategy written by you?"

"I didn't expect that when I came to power, I was not only great at fighting, but I was also unrivaled in writing military books. My little brother's blood boiled with excitement."

Liu Bowen next to him had already finished reading. Now when he heard Xu Da's question, he couldn't help but look towards Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang coughed lightly, laughed dryly and said:

"We are so busy every day that we don't have time to write this."

"Now that you have read these two books, let me ask you, can these two books train a strong army?"

Xu Da was a little surprised when he heard that it was not written by Zhu Yuanzhang. Who else in the Ming Dynasty could write a second military book with such depth?

However, after hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's question, Xu Da immediately expressed his affirmation.

"Your Majesty, if you really follow the contents of this book and train the soldiers, you will definitely be able to create a strong army in less than half a year."

"If coupled with the mandarin duck formation written in the book, I am afraid that few people in the world can be the opponent of this army."

Xu Da gave this book a very high evaluation, as long as the content in the book is very suitable for him.

Xu Da felt that even if he were to write it, he might not be able to write a better military book than this one.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, then saw Liu Bowen again and asked:

"Bowen, what do you think?"

Liu Bowen did not answer Zhu Yuanzhang's words, but instead asked:

"Your Majesty, before I do this, I would like to ask, who is the author of this book on the art of war?"

Zhu Biao was nearby and directly interjected:

"Magistrate of Shanghu County, Li Jin!"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Bowen and Xu Da were immediately stunned.

Li Jin? Can he write such a stunning and brilliant military book?
