"Jingzhao Du Yu, I have met the Central Protector!"
Du Yu, who was in his weak years, did not know whether it was because of the decline of the Du family in his early years that he was running around, or because he often basked in the sun while doing practical work in Hedong.
It seems that the skin is rougher than that of ordinary family members.
His face also looks more mature.
If he hadn't known that he was only in his weakest years, Feng Duhu would not have thought that he was already twenty-four or five years old.
It may be due to preconceptions.
No matter what you heard about Du Yu from others, or whether you were looking at Du Yu's narrow-sleeved and tight-fitting clothes as a worker.
Feng Duhu was very attracted to this young man.
"sit."
"Thank you, the Central Protector, for giving me the seat."
Du Yu bowed and sat down carefully.
"You are considered a student of the academy after all, so don't go outside. Just call the mountain chief."
As soon as Du Yu heard this, a look of surprise and joy suddenly appeared on his face. He immediately raised his butt that had not yet settled down and bowed deeply again:
"Student Du Yu has met the mountain leader!"
Although it stands to reason that when the incident in Hedong is over, he will definitely study in an academy after returning to Chang'an.
But if I don't go back for one day, the matter of the academy will not be completely settled, and I will always feel a little uneasy.
When I heard Feng Duhu say this, didn't it mean that his entry into the academy was guaranteed?
After all, if Feng Duhu’s say about this academy matter doesn’t count, then who else can have the final say?
Du Yu is not a pedantic person. A pedantic person cannot achieve the great achievements in the original history.
Of course, Feng Duhu didn't know what achievements Du Yu had made in the original history.
Because he has a problem. When watching Three Kingdoms, he would read the plot before losing Jingzhou over and over again.
After losing Jingzhou and arriving at Wuzhangyuan, it was just a matter of swallowing jujubes.
When Wuzhangyuan came to Shu and was destroyed, he just jumped to see it.
As for after Shu was destroyed...
Isn’t the Three Kingdoms over? What a fart!
(Note: This has been mentioned in the previous article)
At most, when taking a history class, I can memorize a general historical context.
For example, the Three Huainan Rebellions was a big event, and the main characters were very clear. In addition, Zhuge Dan had some relationship with Zhuge Liang, so it was easier to remember.
By the time the Kingdom of Wu was destroyed, it was already the most rubbish dynasty in the Sima and Jin Dynasties.
Just remember the nine-grade Zhongzheng system.
Just remember that there are no poor families in the upper class, and no noble families in the lower class.
I just remember that men are as weak as chickens and need help when going out.
I only remember the arrogance of the family, I only remember the metaphysics and talk about it...
Of course, the biggest event was the sinking of the Central Plains and the chaos of the Five Husbands in China.
Then the aristocratic families either traveled south in disguise or colluded with the barbarians.
These alone make people subconsciously resist learning more about this dynasty.
Not to mention that Jin had six armies to destroy Wu, so there were six commanders. Du Yu was just one of them, how to remember it?
However, Du Yu's reaction did make Feng Duhu somewhat satisfied.
In the past few years, the imperial court has vigorously promoted the New Deal, involving wealthy families in Sili, Bingzhou, Hedong and other places.
Feng Duhu couldn't remember Du Yu, but he must have known Du from Jingzhao.
Du Yu's reaction just illustrates Du's attitude towards the New Deal.
This makes sense.
The Du family in Jingzhao had already declined before Du Yu's grandfather Du Ji.
Du Ji finally revitalized his family. Unexpectedly, Du Shu, Du Ji's son, was at odds with Cao Wei's ministers at court and offended Sima Yi abroad.
In the end, he had to admit his illness and retire into seclusion. As Du Shu's son, Du Yu was naturally implicated and found it difficult to get ahead.
With Du Shu's retirement, it meant that the Du family in Jingzhao was forced to withdraw from the political center of Cao Wei.
Unexpectedly, it rained all night long when the house leaked, and they encountered their mortal enemy Sima Yi guarding Guanzhong, making life even more difficult.
Wang Shi's restoration of Guanzhong was like a rainy day after a long drought for the Du family.
As for the new policy of the imperial court, it is a great joy from heaven.
So when Du Yu heard Feng Duhu asked him to call him the mountain chief, he immediately bowed his head and bowed. It was very reasonable, sincere and without any pretense.
"Sit, sit, it will happen sooner or later, there is no need to act like this."
Feng Duhu stretched out his hand and pressed it down, signaling Du Yu to sit down.
Du Yu bowed again and then sat upright.
"Do you know why I called you here?"
"Students don't know."
"I once heard Ji Yan praise Yuan Kai, saying that your talent is far better than his."
When Du Yu heard this, he quickly showed humility:
"This is Ji Yan's promotion of his students. How can students be so virtuous and capable that they dare to say they are better than the backward leaders of Hedong?"
Feng Duhu waved his hand:
"There is no need to be humble. Ji Yan is my disciple. I know his temperament. Anyone who can make him say this will definitely not be an ordinary person."
With that said, Feng Duhu looked at Du Yu, "What's more, besides Ji Yan, I also heard your name from Governor Jiang."
Favors only count if they are implemented in practice.
With Feng Duhu's status, there is no need to pretend to accept favors from others.
So he wanted Du Yu to understand who he was sitting here because of.
"From Governor Jiang's introduction, I know that you have a different perspective on the current war situation."
Feng Duhu stood up, picked up the whip, and clicked on the map hanging on the wall of the tent:
"Many generals in the army thought that since I led the army here, sooner or later I would send my troops north to recapture the eldest son."
Du didn't foresee this and quickly stood up.
Feng Duhu turned around and looked at Du Yu:
"You are the only one who thinks that going north is worse than going south, right?"
"I dare not hide it from the principal. The student did say this."
Feng Duhu nodded and asked:
"Go south and capture Gaodu City, and then what? Do you have any ideas for the next step?"
Du Yu's eyes lit up and he moved slightly. He subconsciously wanted to step forward, but he immediately reacted and quickly stood up again.
Seeing his appearance, Feng Duhu waved his hand:
"It seems you really have an idea? Come over and talk to me in detail."
After receiving the order, Du Yu stepped forward, took a deep breath, and then plucked up the courage, stretched out his finger, and tapped Gaodu's position:
"Captain Shan, from the news sent by General Shi Zhonglang, Sima Division was defeated in the battle of Gaoping Pass and fled Gaodu."
"The Sima division is not the enemy of General Zhonglang, and it is even less the enemy of the mountain commander. If the mountain commander leads his army from Gaoping Pass to the south and takes Gaodu directly, he will definitely be able to conquer Gaodu in one fell swoop."
"At that time, Sima Division will suffer two defeats in a row, and the morale of the army will be shaken. At that time, they may want to defend Tianjing Pass but not be able to do so!"
"The chief of the mountain can take advantage of the great victory and seize Tianjing Pass, and then Taihangxing will be in the palm of the chief of the mountain."
"At that time, the mountain commander ordered a general to guard Gaoping Pass to prevent the eldest son from rebelling. He also ordered a general to attack Zhiguan from Hedong, and the mountain commander led the army to attack Hanoi from Taihang."
"As long as the mountain leader leads his army into Hanoi, the bandit army in Zhiguan will be attacked from both sides."
"If the thieves don't want to annihilate their entire army, they can only give up Zhiguan and retreat to Henan. In this case, Hanoi will definitely be the same!"
When Feng Duhu heard this, his eyes widened. He couldn't help but tap his palm with his long whip and said in admiration:
"Wonderful!"
But his eyes fell on the map again, and he tapped Shangdang and Taiyuan with his long whip:
"We haven't seen Sima Yi's main force so far. I think he must have taken advantage of the big man's unpreparedness to capture Taiyuan."
"It's understandable not to fight the eldest son to regain Shangdang, but what about Taiyuan?"
Speaking of this, Feng Duhu seemed to have thought of something and glanced at Du Yu meaningfully.
This young man is indeed not as simple as he seems.
Everyone in the government and the opposition thought that they would be eager to regain Shangdang as soon as possible, but he did not think so, which really won my heart.
After all, it was not me, the Central Protector, who lost the Shangdang, so why should I be anxious?
If Shangdang doesn't recover for a day, the one who is hung up and slapped in the face is Wei Yan, the one from the palace. What does it have to do with me, the Central Protector?
But Du Yu smiled confidently:
"Captain, are you testing me? General Guan led his cavalry to help Taiyuan, and he was also followed by tiger cavalry."
"Sima Yi will be fine if he doesn't attack the city. If he dares to attack the city, as long as General Deng can defend it for a few more days, and when General Guan follows him, Sima Yi will have wings on both sides and will not be able to escape!"
Feng Duhu gathered his thoughts and sighed:
"The war is unpredictable, how can we take any chances? Yuan Kai doesn't know something. Taiyuan doesn't have many troops, so it can be said that the defense is empty."
"If Sima Yi, unprepared in Taiyuan, leads the army directly to Jinyang, Jinyang may be difficult to defend."
Du Yu naturally didn't know about Bingzhou's troop deployment.
Hearing Feng Duhu's words at this time, he couldn't help but be startled.
His eyes fell on Taiyuan County on the map.
After a moment of thought, a smile appeared on his face again:
"Even so, there's no need to worry!"
"oh?"
Feng Duhu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "What should I say?"
Du Yu pointed to the mountains between Dang and Taiyuan and said:
"There are only a few roads Sima Yi can take to attack Taiyuan from Shangdang."
As he spoke, he moved his fingers to Jinyang's position:
"It's not a short journey from Shangdang to Jinyang."
"Even if Jinyang falls and is occupied by Sima Yi, as long as General Guan can lead his army into Taiyuan, he will definitely be able to cut off the connection between Shangdang and Jinyang!"
Having said this, Du Yu looked at Feng Duhu and emphasized his tone:
"Unless Sima Yi can defeat General Guan's cavalry, his future will be equally worrying. Even if he takes Jinyang, there is no chance that he will be trapped in an isolated city!"
Feng Duhu smiled and said, "You have full confidence in General Guan."
When Du Yu heard this, his eyes widened slightly, and he seemed a little surprised that Feng Duhu would say this:
"Is there anyone in the world who can compete with the cavalry led by General Guan on the plains?"
This is not just confidence in General Guan.
At the same time, she also has confidence in the Han cavalry she leads.
Not to mention the Tiger Cavalry Army as the final guarantee.
Taiyuan County is the largest grain producing area in Bingzhou. It can be said that the road is smooth, and the cavalry can move freely. What can the thieves use to fight General Guan?
Seeing Du Yu's expression, Feng Duhu couldn't help laughing:
"So, Taiyuan Wuyou?"
"From the students' point of view, it is indeed worry-free."
"That's a bit strange." At this time, Feng Duhu's face finally showed a serious look, "In your opinion, it is a mistake for the thieves to go north to attack Jinyang."
"Sima Yi is a man who knows military skills after all. How could he not see the danger of this move?"
"Logically speaking, after he attacks Shangdang, it is best to capture Gaoping Pass immediately. In this way, he can hold on to Shangdang."
"But there has been no news about him for a long time. Apart from going north to capture Taiyuan, where else might he be?"
This question finally stumped Du Yu.
He opened his mouth, but no words came out because he had no way of explaining Sima Yi's motives.
He glanced at the mountain leader with a somewhat solemn look, and suddenly felt blessed, and couldn't help lowering his voice:
"It is precisely because the mountain chief has this concern that he has deliberately delayed it until now. Could it be that he is waiting for news from General Guan?"
Feng Duhu was startled and looked at Du Yu thoughtfully: "Delay?"
Du Yu finally got such an opportunity to perform in front of Feng Duhu, so he didn't hide his clumsiness at all.
But seeing him muster up the courage to reveal Feng Duhu’s thoughts:
"Since the mountain chief came out of the mountain, he has led troops on expeditions and has mastered the art of war: as fast as the wind, as slow as the forest, as invading and plundering as fire, and as motionless as a mountain."
"Attack Longguan, fight back at Jieting, force Anding to surrender, fight back at Xiaoguan, conquer Qiaoshan, and then move to Bingzhou. Their momentum is like wind and fire, unstoppable."
"But since the Shangdang started the war, the mountain commander has been uncharacteristically slow in his actions. In fact, he is waiting for news from Sima Yi and wants to know his intentions, right?"
Hearing Du Yu's words, Feng Duhu calmed down the expression on his face, looked at him deeply, then turned around without saying a word and sat back in his seat.
When Du Huan saw Feng Duhu looking like this, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly retreated downstairs and stood with his hands solemnly raised.
The camp suddenly became quiet, and Du Yu seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat.
There is no way, no matter how powerful he is, he is just a twenty-year-old man.
Under the gaze of the world-famous Feng Duhu, it would be impossible to say that there was no tension in his heart.
Just when Du was wondering if he was a little too impulsive, Feng Duhu finally spoke:
"What is Yuan Kai's life ambition?"
Du Yu did not expect Feng Duhu to suddenly ask him this question, but he immediately answered subconsciously:
"An ancient saying goes: The most important thing is to establish virtue, then to perform meritorious service, and then to establish words. Even if it lasts for a long time, this is called immortality. Establishing virtue is beyond the reach of prediction, but there is a will to perform meritorious service and to establish words."
Feng Duhu nodded:
"Being able to answer this question right away shows that you have already made up your mind."
"The so-called meritorious service means rescuing disasters and relieving difficulties, and meritorious deeds are beneficial to the time; if you want to make a speech, you must have the key points of your speech and be able to convey the truth."
"Today, the sea is boiling. Thieves occupy all sides and commit tyranny. The people are in dire straits and cannot bear the tyranny. If you want to save the country from disaster and get the best of you, you must lead the army to put an end to the chaos and pacify the thieves."
Feng Duhu put down his long whip, put his hands on the desk, leaned forward, stared at Du Yu, and emphasized his tone:
"My ambition is also to eliminate thieves and put an end to chaos, restore peace to the world, protect the people's peace, and prevent future generations from suffering from war. I will revitalize the Han Dynasty three times, restore the prestige of the Han Dynasty, and be connected to the sky and the earth. I can do everything."
Having said this, he asked one word at a time:
"Yuan Kai, are you willing to help me?"
Du Yu's breathing suddenly became heavy.
This was an invitation personally sent to me by a disciple of the Shanmen who was the most important minister of the Han Dynasty, a famous general in the world, a man who created a literary style of his generation, who had a unique talent among the world, and was probably the most powerful arithmetic master in the world.
Du Yu felt his blood surge up all of a sudden, and he felt a little rumbling in his forehead.
His legs softened and he knelt down and worshiped:
"Disciple Du Yu, I would like to meet you sir! I would like to thank you sir for your service, and I am willing to obey."
After finishing speaking, he kowtowed three times and bowed nine times, making a sound of "dong-dong".
Feng Duhu accepted the worship calmly.
This is his fifth disciple - not counting the eldest disciple who became Madam Mei.
