【After deciding to learn riding, archery, sword, halberd and military philosophy from Wang Jian, Prince Fusu temporarily returned to the imperial palace in Xianyang City from the Dongjun Palace in Shanglin Garden.】

【At the same time, Prince Fusu also went to Wang Jian's house in person and expressed to Wang Jian that he wanted to learn the art of riding, shooting, sword, and halberd from him, as well as the thoughts of military strategists.】

【Wang Jian readily agreed to this.】

【After all, judging from the current situation, as long as Prince Fusu does not die prematurely, he can be said to be the next King of Qin.】

【After all, King Ying Zheng of Qin even allowed Crown Prince Fusu to establish the Six Ministries of the Crown Prince, which were equivalent to the Nine Minor Ministers. So could Crown Prince Fusu still escape the position of the next King of Qin?】

【Of course it's impossible!】

【Although the Wang family has never been loyal to any of the princes of Qin, they are only loyal to the King of Qin.】

【But that was a decision made only to prevent the royal family from getting involved in a fight for the throne.】

【But if there is a prince who has been confirmed to be the next King of Qin, and the Wang family is very optimistic about him,】

【So, what are the Wang family waiting for now? Why doesn’t they take advantage of the fact that Crown Prince Fusu is still young to establish a good relationship with him and work hard to lay a solid foundation for the next generation of the Wang family?】

【So, after hearing that Prince Fusu wanted to learn the art of riding, shooting, sword, and halberd, as well as the military philosophy from him, Wang Jian decided to teach Prince Fusu all he had learned and experienced without reservation.】

【As for the military knowledge and tactics inherited by the royal family, if they were passed on to Prince Fusu, would it cause the military knowledge and tactics inherited by the royal family to be leaked?】

【Wang Jian didn't care. After all, which king would personally go to the battlefield to charge into battle?】

【Leading the charge is the job of the generals, not the kings.】

【Therefore, even if the military knowledge and tactics inherited from the royal family were passed down to Prince Fusu, Prince Fusu would not lower his status to become a general.】

【At most, it can help Prince Fusu go from being ignorant of military affairs to being knowledgeable about military affairs.】

【This is actually a good thing for the future generals of Qin.】

【After all, a monarch who knows military affairs will certainly be more cautious than a monarch who does not know military affairs at certain times, and will be more able to understand some of the actions of his generals.】

【In this way, it can give the generals below more room to play.】

【As a general from a family of generals, Wang Jian naturally hoped that his descendants would not be suspected by the king when they marched to war in the future, and would understand the combat strategies adopted by these generals.】

【So after Wang Jian had made careful preparations, he sent someone to invite Prince Fusu to come and learn the art of riding, shooting, sword, and halberd, as well as the military philosophy.】

【In the palace, in a side hall that Wang Jian had specially ordered to be vacated, Wang Jian stood at the front with a serious look on his face.】

【The crown prince Fusu and Wang Li were sitting within three feet of Wang Jian, each holding a copy of Sun Tzu's Art of War.》】

【After all, teaching one is teaching, teaching two is also teaching.】

【So taking advantage of this opportunity to teach Prince Fusu, Wang Jian naturally brought his grandson Wang Li with him.】

【Even if his son Wang Ben was not still leading the troops outside, Wang Jian would have asked his son Wang Ben to come and listen again.】

【After all, the art of war needs to be reviewed from time to time, so that you never know when you will suddenly gain new insights into the art of war.】

【In the corner behind Prince Fusu and Wang Li, there was another person sitting, that was Zhang Han.】

【However, Zhang Han did not have the bamboo slips of"The Art of War" in his hand. The reason why he was able to sit in this side hall was mainly because of his status as an attendant of Prince Fusu.】

【After all, as an attendant of Prince Fusu, he naturally could not be too far away from Prince Fusu.】

【In addition, Wang Jian did not think that Zhang Han, a young man, could understand the military strategy he was talking about.】

【After all, if Prince Fusu and his grandson Wang Li had any doubts about the military strategy he was talking about, then he would definitely explain it to them.】

【But if Zhang Han had any doubts about the military strategy he was talking about, he would not help him.】

【After all, to put it bluntly, Zhang Han, who is still just a young boy, is not worthy of Wang Jian to help him solve his doubts.】

【Moreover, in Wang Jian's view, as one of the six ministers of the crown prince, Zhang Han, the Minister of Revenue, would obviously be a civil official in the future, rather than a military general.】

【Therefore, based on the above factors, Wang Jian acquiesced to Zhang Han's attendance.】

【Wang Jian looked at the Crown Prince Fusu and his grandson Wang Li, who were both well-behaved and serious, and smiled. He said with full energy:"Today, we will start studying Sun Tzu's Art of War.》!"】

【"《There are thirteen chapters in Sun Tzu's Art of War. I have divided it into five parts based on my own understanding."】

【"The first chapter,"Beginning of Strategy", talks about temple calculations, which is to compare the various conditions of the enemy and ourselves in the temple before sending troops, estimate the possibility of victory or defeat, and formulate a battle plan."】

【"Among them, cautious warfare, five matters and seven strategies, twelve tricks, etc., are the specific contents of temple calculation.】

【"The second chapter,"Operation", talks about the war mobilization after careful planning, and how to take advantage of the enemy and become stronger after defeating the enemy."】

【"The third chapter,"Strategies of Attack", talks about attacking a city with wisdom, that is, not using force exclusively, but using various means to make the defending enemy surrender."】

【"I have summarized the above three articles into the first part, which is the strategic planning part!"】

【"The fourth chapter,"Military Formation", discusses external factors that are objective, stable, and easily visible, such as the strength of combat power, material preparations for war, etc."】

【"The fifth chapter,"Military Forces," deals with subjective, changeable, and accidental factors, such as the deployment of troops and the courage and cowardice of morale."】

【"The sixth chapter,"The Real and the False", talks about how to disperse and gather forces, encircle and outflank the enemy, so as to create a situation where we are strong and the enemy is weak at the predetermined battle site, and to defeat the minority with the majority."】

【"I have summarized the above three articles into the second part, which is the combat command part."】

【"The seventh chapter,"Military Struggle", talks about how to take advantage of the situation and seize the initiative in battle."】

【"The eighth chapter,"Nine Changes", talks about how the general adopts different strategies and tactics according to different situations."】

【"The ninth chapter,"March", talks about how to camp and observe the enemy during the march."】

【"I have summarized the above three articles into the third part, which is the battlefield change part."】

【"Chapter 10,"Terrain," discusses six different combat terrains and their corresponding tactical requirements."】

【"Chapter 11,"Nine Terrains", discusses nine types of combat environments, divided according to the host-guest situation and the degree of penetration into the enemy, as well as the corresponding tactical requirements."】

【"I have summarized the above two articles into the fourth part, which is the military geography part."】

【"Chapter 12,"Fire Attack", talks about using fire to assist and being cautious in war"】

【"Chapter 13,"Using Spies", talks about the coordinated use of five types of spies"】

【"I have summarized the above two articles into the fifth part, which is the special tactics part."】

Under the canopy, the young Han Xin silently recited along with Wang Jian's narration:

"War is a matter of great importance to a country. It is a matter of life and death, a matter of survival and destruction. We must pay close attention to it."

"What are the five things?"

"One is Tao, two is Heaven, three is Earth, four is General, and five is Law!" (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"What are the seven strategies?"

"Which ruler is righteous? Which general is capable? Who has the heaven and earth? Who enforces the laws? Who has the strongest army? Who has the most trained soldiers? Who has clear rewards and punishments?"

"Soldiers who, deception also"

"So if you are capable, pretend you are incapable; if you are using something, pretend you are not using it; if something is near, pretend it is far away; if something is far away, pretend it is near."

"Lure them with profit, seize them when they are in disorder, prepare for them when they are strong, avoid them when they are strong, frustrate them when they are angry, make them arrogant when they are humble, tire them when they are idle, and separate them when they are close......."[]

"......Therefore, a wise general will try to get food from the enemy. One catty of food from the enemy is equivalent to twenty catties of ours!"

"Therefore, the best military operation is to attack the enemy's plans, the next best is to attack his alliances, the next best is to attack his troops, and the worst is to attack his cities......."

"Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be in danger in a hundred battles; if you know yourself but not the enemy, you will win or lose; if you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will be in danger in every battle."

"The Art of War: First, measure; second, quantity; third, number; fourth, balance; fifth, victory."

"In every battle, the right tactics are used to win the battle."

"The shape of the army is like water. The shape of water avoids high places and moves toward low places. The shape of the army avoids the solid and strikes the empty."

"Water flows according to the terrain, and soldiers win according to the enemy. Therefore, soldiers have no fixed position, and water has no fixed shape. Those who can win by adapting to the changes of the enemy are called gods."

"......Therefore, it is swift as the wind, slow as the forest, invasive as fire, still as a mountain, elusive as the shadow, and powerful as thunder."

At this moment,"Wang Jian" on the sky curtain taught the subtleties of the various marching, fighting, and military command in"The Art of War".

And the gains and losses of various war examples that have occurred in the past history to prove and explain the specific application of"The Art of War".

All of them were digested, absorbed, and understood by the young Han Xin without any hindrance, just like a hundred rivers returning to the sea. It was not until"Wang Jian" on the sky curtain finished teaching"The Art of War" that the young Han Xin frowned with some unsatisfied thoughts.

Because how to say it,"Wang Jian" on the sky curtain explained it very well, and the military philosophy recorded in"The Art of War" was also very good.

But there is still a certain gap and distance between it and the military philosophy he imagined, expected to hear, and learned. Simply put,"The Art of War" is not difficult enough for him!

At least it was not difficult for him to learn and understand.

Similarly,"The Art of War" did not help and play a big role for him.

At least after he finished studying, he did not feel that he had made any substantial improvement compared to before.

At most, it enriched his foundation, broadened his horizons, and gave him a clear reference.

But this is normal. After all, Han Xin in the original history went out of Chencang, conquered the Three Qins, and won with fewer troops!

He captured Wei, broke Dai, destroyed Zhao, conquered Yan, attacked Qi, and formed a battle array with his back to the water. There was no opponent in the world!

From leaving the mountains to killing Long Ju at Weishui, breaking Xiang Yu at Gaixia, being surrounded by enemies on all sides, ambushed on all sides, and never defeated, he was a military fairy and god general that no hero in the world dared to compete with! A military book like"The Art of War" may be enough for ordinary people to study carefully for a lifetime and still not be able to understand it. A thorough grasp of it.

But for Han Xin, it is really something that he can understand, master, and learn after reading it. It is even arrogant but very practical to say that if"The Art of War" is only at this level.

Then this"The Art of War" is actually not much different from the"Young Han Xin Version of the Art of War" that he had previously imagined.

He had previously tried to base it on the fragments of"The Art of War" mentioned by Prince Fusu during their conversation when he visited Wang Jian, as well as some military thoughts that young Han Xin himself knew. After piecing together here and there, he also pieced together a"Young Han Xin Version of the Art of War".

Although"Young Han Xin Version of the Art of War" is not as self-contained and complete as the original"The Art of War", if we only talk about the content contained therein. If it contains the military thought and military value.

Then"Young Han Xin's Art of War" and the original"Art of War" can indeed be said to be military works of the same level!

After all, Han Xin, the military god in his youth, is also a serious military god!

Don't some people think that there is a big gap between the young Han Xin at the age of 11 or 12 and the adult Han Xin after the age of 25?

To be honest, although there is a gap between the young Han Xin and the adult Han Xin, the gap is not big.

At least the adult Han Xin, who was worshipped as a general at the age of 25, must not have finished learning the military books, just like the young Han Xin at the age of 11 or 12.

And according to the origins of the young Han Xin and the adult Han Xin, neither the young Han Xin nor the adult Han Xin could have met a teacher who could teach them the military strategy and military affairs in a serious and systematic way.

However, relying only on the military books that he had made up in his mind and his own talents, the adult Han Xin directly defeated the heroes of the world with his sword when he left Guanzhong, and became a national scholar without parallel!

It can be said that Han Xin was a wild person from the beginning to the end, and he did not go through any formal military studies.

However, just by pure talent, Han Xin stood at the level of the Four Saints of Military Science!

It is conceivable that Han Xin's talent in military science is really abnormal to the point of being unbelievable!

And since it is mainly talent, then is there any difference in talent between the 11-year-old Han Xin and the adult Han Xin?

There is no difference!

So in the case of no difference in talent, the"Han Xin version of the Art of War" that the young Han Xin and the adult Han Xin each made up in their minds will not be much different.

And there will not be much difference between the"Art of War" written by Sun Wu, one of the Four Saints of Military Science, and it is no problem to say that the two are at the same level.

However, after digesting, absorbing, and understanding"The Art of War", although he did not produce any essential improvement changes.

But more or less, it also made him take another small step forward on the starting point of his ridiculously high talent.

At least now, with all kinds of fantastic tactics flashing through his mind, and many ingenious strategies and tactics that are as untraceable as antelope hanging horns, the young Han Xin feels that he should be quite strong.

If he compares himself with the generals used as examples by"Wang Jian" on the sky curtain, he even feels that he is terribly strong!

Because in terms of the abilities of those generals used as examples to prove"The Art of War", he can at least come up with more than ten ways to defeat each general!

The only pity is that he can only think about it now, and can't find a real army for him to command and verify it..
