Doctors in the late Ming Dynasty

"You must be Mr. He Jiming, right? I have admired your name for a long time, and now that I have seen it, you are indeed worthy of your reputation?"

He Liangchen said angrily: "I can't afford it. It seems that I am much worse than Li Zhi's son."

When everyone heard this, they could not help but murmur in their hearts that you, He Liangchen, are just a trumped-up Qi Jiguang, a famous general in the world. Li Zhi is the master of the Taizhou School. Putting everything aside, to be fair, he is as famous as King Cheng, Zhu, and Lu, and has no equal in the world.

There is no comparison at all.

Xu Chunfu had heard about He Liangchen and knew his character. He wanted to use his own words to prove that he was not as good as Li Zhi, so he asked: "Brother Weisheng, do you dare to ask how many military strategists in the world are like you?"

"Qi Jiguang, Yu Dayou, and Tan Sima." He Liangchen said truthfully. In his "Array Records", he mentioned three contemporary masters of military art ten times in total, of which Qi Jiguang was mentioned seven times, Yu Dayou twice, and Tan Lun once.

.But Li Chengliang was not mentioned at all.

People often discuss famous generals based on their military exploits, but He Liangchen discussed famous generals in ancient and modern times based on their military exploits. He drew on the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought and formed a family that eventually produced the Four Books of the Ming Dynasty, represented by "Ji Ji".

"Brother Holy Brother, can you judge the four of them?" Xu Chunfu continued to ask.

"When it comes to formations alone, Qi Jiguang's mandarin duck formation is the only one in the world that is comparable to my chain formation, so the two formations are comparable. When it comes to foot combat, our two formations, with chariots and cavalry in between, can control Qi Jiguang's mandarin duck formation." He said.

When setting up the formation, he seemed very rigorous.

But in everyone's ears, it was like a thunderbolt, and they all asked: "Are you kidding?"

Seeing that everyone did not believe it, he mentioned the battle of wind, rain, snow and fog, and talked about Qi Jiguang's use of troops in Fujian and Zhejiang. Finally, he concluded: "People say that Qi Jiguang can do it, but I have always studied his military strategy in Zhejiang and Fujian, but I have only a little understanding of it. If it is said

It can assemble the great achievements of ancient famous generals and adapt to unexpected situations, but I don’t dare to promise it with my heart!”

Everyone had already preconceived the idea that he was talking big words and could not listen to the analysis at all. Although they did not understand soldiers, they still had their own set of evaluation criteria, which was victory or defeat.

"As you say, there are no good generals in the world, and the Yuanyang Formation is so unbearable?" Xu Chunfu asked rhetorically.

"I dare to conclude that if there is no improvement, after Qi Jiguang, the Yuanyang Formation will no longer be able to show its power on the battlefield. The power of the Yuanyang Formation does not lie in the formation, but only in Qi Jiguang. How can I not break such a formation? How can I not break it?"<

/p>

As He Liangchen said this, he stood up unconsciously, his scornful air clearly revealed. This was the confidence brought by reading through research and absorbing the essence of thousands of years of military strategists; this was also the confidence brought by decades of fighting on the battlefield without a single defeat. Even if

Qi Jiguang, whom everyone praised, dared to point out his vital points.

This is why he is willing to accept the guerrilla generals in Jizhen, because Tan Lun and Qi Jiguang are both in Jizhen. Famous generals and famous formations in ancient times are only kept in books. Only Qi Jiguang and Yuanyang Formation can be witnessed by him personally.

"Okay, okay, okay, this is the He Jiming I know." Tan Lun from outside cheered.

Everyone realized that Tan Lun had brought several soldiers in carrying food.

Tan Lun took He Liangchen's arm and introduced to everyone: "I didn't have time to introduce to everyone before. Here I will introduce you to a master of military art in the world. Yes, it is Mr. He Jiming. Brother Ruyuan, you should know that Yu Dayou and I are reorganizing the capital camp.

, about organizing and practicing car formations?"

"Hmph, it's stupid and out of control, it's difficult to change formations, it's useless." He Liangchen groaned.

"Do you know? Yu Dayou and I spent countless money and food on compiling it. He Jiming took one look at it and criticized it as useless. What do you think?" Tan Lun continued.

"Of course I'm not convinced." Tang Xianzu admired Tan Lun the most.

"I was not convinced, so I confronted Jiming for a while. Do you know what the result will be?" Tan Lun continued to ask.

Seeing He Liangchen's disdainful look, everyone had already made a guess, but they still couldn't believe it.

"Ming Gong, it's not you and Marshal Yu who are defeated, right?" Tang Xianzu's expression changed drastically, and he felt that his faith was broken. The invincible God of War in his heart, and the car array that he spent a lot of money to build, were now vulnerable.

"Yes, He Liangchen only practiced for three days. In three days, our achievements of several months were reduced to ashes."

Everyone was still consuming what Tan Lun said when they saw Tan Lun continue: "Fortunately, we didn't meet on the battlefield. Over the past year or so, Yu Dayou and I have learned from the experience and remodeled the car formation. Jiming, I'm asking you to

Fortunately, there are no more two-column carriages in the world. There are only side carriages that are large but not heavy, light but not empty, and can advance and retreat without hesitation. I am here to thank you for the imperial court and thousands of soldiers."

As Tan Lun spoke, he solemnly saluted He Liangchen. He Liangchen also straightened up and accepted it calmly.

This scene refreshed everyone's understanding. They thought they were just boastful people, but they turned out to be masters of the art of war. Their view of victory and defeat that they had formed over decades was challenged. It turns out that famous generals can also lose, and even famous formations can be broken.

p>

As for Zhang Shoufeng, Zhang Jiebin and his son, their eyes lit up. The Art of War was right in front of them, how could they miss it?

Zhou Shuxue often told Zhang Jiebin that everyone in the world attaches great importance to fame and wealth, but they don't realize that fame and wealth are fleeting; only knowledge is valuable. When you meet someone you can learn from, you don't have to pay attention to etiquette, justice and integrity, and you have to learn from him even if you stalk him. This is how Zhou Shuxue himself became

Huang Zongxi said that he was the most knowledgeable person for thousands of years.

I saw Zhang Jiebin fell to his knees with a plop, and heard him say: "Master Jiming, please bow to me as a disciple. I hope that the master will teach me the art of war. The student was supposed to be the hereditary commander of the Shaoxing Guard. Now that he has lost his position, he only wants to

I personally went to Jiubian to serve the country and bless my descendants. I hope the master will be successful and accept me as his disciple."

Jin Ying's eyes widened and she turned away angrily, out of sight and out of mind.

Tang Xianzu was also shocked by this young man. He didn't know that this young man would compete with him for a teacher in the future.

Xu Chunfu looked at everyone with a smile. He remembered that old man Jin said yesterday that this was his closed disciple. It depends on whether He Liangchen accepts a disciple, and if so, how he will get along with him in the future. He is looking forward to it just thinking about it.

Zhang Shoufeng also advised: "Mr. Jiming, you see that we all got drunk and collapsed together yesterday, you can't deny it, right? You are the world's best military master, and if my son introduces guests to the guests with the style of his ancestors, then it is unacceptable.

Those who have been received by Taizu are destined to be heirs of military strategists. How about you train them and train them?"

Tan Lun stroked his beard and laughed, also wanting to promote this master-disciple relationship, he said: "I think this boy is extraordinary and suits my taste. If you don't accept it, I can take him away."

"It's none of your business, Tan Datou, whether I accept your mother's fart or not." He Liangchen cursed loudly.

"Then are you going to accept it or not? If you don't accept it, I will really take it away. I happen to be short of a successor!" Tan Lun continued to ask without being angry.

He Liangchen was in a dilemma. The interaction last night made him like this young man. However, in just a few hours, it was impossible to completely see through a person. He didn't want to trust others. He had planned to investigate for a while longer, and this meeting

It's not okay for the three of them to join forces and ask him to accept it, nor is it to refuse. Besides, if he is really forced to accept it, wouldn't it be very shameful for him?

At this time, Zhang Jiebin said again: "I have often heard people say that you should be sincere in your apprenticeship. In ancient times, there was a Chengmen Lixue. Today, Jiebin is willing to go around the imperial city and kowtow a thousand times to let everyone know that I am sincere in my apprenticeship. I hope Master Ji will show mercy.

Otherwise, the guest will kowtow and die."

As he spoke, he didn't care about the crowd, and started to kneel down once every three steps, bow once every five steps, kowtow once every seven steps, and just kneel down and kowtow before leaving.

No one expected this fourteen-year-old boy to be so decisive, but not knowing whether he could keep his word, they followed him out. He Liangchen put Shuji on his back and followed.

Soon everyone came to East Chang'an Street. Zhang Jiebin still knelt down every three steps, bowed once every five steps, and kowtow once every seven steps. He said loudly: "Jiebin, the son of the Zhang family in Mianzhu, wants to take Mr. Jiming as his teacher. I hope he will succeed!"

”

This eternal wonder attracted everyone to watch. Tan Lun had already arranged for soldiers from the Ministry of War to notify the four cities' military and horse departments to maintain order when he came out of the dungeon. Fortunately, there was no major chaos.

From East Chang'an Street, turn to Straw Hat Hutong, then walk through Dong'anmen Street, Shaojiu Hutong, Changdeng Hutong, then turn to Fuxiang Temple, Mawei Hutong, and walk through Di'anmen Street.

Everyone was moved. They had already knelt down for half of the Forbidden City. They knelt down without taking any protective measures. Blood was already visible on their foreheads. If their winter clothes had not been thick, their knees would have bled.

Jin Ying persuaded: "Mr. Jiming, if the guest is so sincere, just accept him. His forehead is bleeding."

He Liangchen said proudly: "I have told him a long time ago that my disciples, He Jiming, are not that easy to do. If you want to command troops on the battlefield and are not afraid of death, if you can't bear this little hardship, why bother to join the army and why bother to become a disciple. Learn.

If you don’t use it, don’t learn it!”

After hearing this, Zhang Jiebin no longer took any chances, and then kneeled down every three steps, bowed once every five steps, and kowtow once every seven steps. He still said loudly: "Jiebin, the son of the Zhang family in Mianzhu, wants to take Mr. Jiming as his teacher.

Teacher makes everything possible!”

After passing through the nine gates of the capital, Zhang Jiebin kowtowed once, which was still 999 times short of the thousand times he said.

When Zhang Jiebin was about to continue kowtowing, He Liangchen said: "Okay, that's it for today. The remaining nine hundred and ninety-nine chapters will be owed for the time being. I will accept you as a registered disciple. When will you finish kowtowing?

I will accept you as my first disciple."

He Liangchen stood on the street of the Central Government Office and raised his voice to the crowd of onlookers: "Kowtow a thousand times, which is my first attempt at recruiting disciples. If I can do it, I will not refuse them, regardless of whether they are wise or foolish."

As soon as this statement came out, it caused an uproar. After that, it became popular in the tea house streets and alleys of the capital, and attracted many people later.

He Liangchen looked at the young man kneeling in front of him and sighed: "Jie Bin, I know you are not my good disciple, why should I accept you?"

"A horse bone worth a thousand gold, please rest assured, Master. From now on, the guest will kowtow once a day until he has kowtowed a thousand times. I only hope that I can help Master find a good disciple as soon as possible." Zhang Jiebin said sincerely.

He inherited the idea of ​​​​learning first and learning later, and he did not care about status. Learning skills is the fundamental thing.

In this way, Zhang Jiebin became a third teacher, and the influence of these three teachers will stay with him throughout his life.
