Martial Sage

Chapter 51: Battle Strategy Competition

"A piece of commoner, even if it has some talents, is just a stepping stone for a family to take the stage, and how much trouble it can make.

Zhang Wu gritted his teeth, clenched his fists tightly, and constantly comforted himself with his family status.

Martial Dao was born in the past dynasties, and has been immersed in the ocean of war strategies since he was a child. Zhang Wu is extremely confident in his recitation of the art of war.

What's more, own ancestors have experience in the battlefield, and they have a history of military camps, and they have quite a lot of experience in the use of soldiers.

How many such opportunities can a commoner have? Even if you are in the house of the famous general, even if you have a collection of tens of thousands of books, how much can you master in two months?

"Huh! Tang Hao, you already made a lottery in the first game, then I will see how painful your fall is in the second game!"

Zhang Wu gave Tang Hao a fierce look, and a flash of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Tang Hao wholeheartedly recalled the page of "The Art of War" that he had read yesterday. He turned a deaf ear to the sounds around him, and he didn't notice that there were more mysterious characters on the VIP seats today!

Tan Gong Zhang Gong Jin!

Zhang Gongjin had just entered Chang'an yesterday. He was originally a general on the frontier. It was only because the exam was ordered by the emperor, and it was of great importance.

This person can be regarded as the number one person in the Tang Dynasty in terms of making surprises.

Duan Zhixuan stepped forward and said respectfully: "Brother Zhang, I didn't think that it was because of this incident that you were transferred back. I have stayed in the banned place for a long time. I am afraid that it is a bit unaccustomed to go back to this crowded Chang'an."

Zhang Gongjin laughed.

"It's a bit, I heard that a young talent named Tang Hao was also in the martial arts field when I first returned to court. I don't know who it is? Brother Laofan Duan gave me guidance."

"It's not a loss to listen to all directions, now, which boy is it."

Duan Zhixuan pointed to Tang Hao who was sitting upright and introduced to Zhang Gongjin.

"I heard that this boy was born in a poor family? The emperor still cares about this person?"

Zhang Gongjin was the most trusted general of the Tang King, and he was absolutely loyal to the Tang King, and he always obeyed the decision of the emperor on weekdays.

It was precisely because of the combination of writing that Zhang Gongjin was interested in this poor disciple.

Duan Zhixuan coughed a few times, looked at the left and right and whispered.

"Brother Zhang, although you and I are of the same rank, they have different status in the hearts of the emperor. I dare not say some things."

Zhang Gongjin immediately understood that privately assessing the emperor is a taboo, and he is not in words at the moment.

"Then watch the competition, today we will only be the judges, and nothing else."

"Boom"

A gong rang.

The military strategy is officially tested.

Sheets of white paper were distributed.

A huge board covered by a huge black cloth in front of the examinees was lifted, revealing four large characters.

The Siege of Gaixia.

The assessment official stood in front of the giant board and explained aloud.

"The battle of Gaixia must be well known to everyone, the final battle of the Overlord of Western Chu,"

"Today's exam question is this. Candidates, Coco, can speak freely about the strategy of the two sides, the outcome and the loss."

"let's start."

With an order, fifty candidates put up pens one after another.

There is no shortage of talented and agile candidates.

While some examinees looked at the proposition and were puzzled, the question seemed to be too simple.

Zhang Wu was a little happy when he saw this topic.

Classic battles have always been a hot topic in the army, and at the birthday of his grandfather, I had a long conversation with General Duan Zhixuan in the barracks.

Who ever thought that this proposition actually appeared in the martial arts examination room!

The complacency on Zhang Wu's face was unobstructed, and his eyes couldn't help but glanced at the thoughtful Tang Hao.

Seeing Tang Hao staring at the four big characters ecstatically, Zhang Wu almost laughed and said in his heart.

"This Tang Hao hasn't even heard of such a classic fighting spirit, right?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Wu was delighted, and answered the question after a little thought.

The vast majority of candidates in the examination room are struggling to write.

But only Tang Hao, sitting in his seat, staring at these four characters, did not start writing for a long time.

Whether it is answering questions or writing poems, Tang Hao has a habit.

Time passed by one minute after another. Seeing that the time had passed halfway, Tang Hao sat there in a daze.

Gradually, the generals and officials of the invigilator began to discuss.

"What's the situation? Tang Hao doesn't understand the art of war, right?"

"It seems that Tang Hao is still overestimated, but he has some talent. Archery is good."

"Hey! It's a pity, it's a pity, Sora has a skill, no war strategy, nothing more than a martial artist."

Even Zhang Gongjin on the judging stage frowned slightly and approached Duan Zhixuan.

"What's the situation? Does this poor disciple have no money in the family to buy this book of war? I don't know anything about this strategy of war?"

"This... I don't think it is necessary."

Duan Zhixuan continued in his eyes.

"The good calligraphy written by this child must have been bought on paper and inkstone. Compared with the money for practicing calligraphy, there is no problem at all with this book on war."

With eyes facing each other, they all saw the doubt in each other's eyes. There was a blink of an eye towards the field.

Sudden.

Tang Hao rolled up his sleeves and swung his pen quickly.

It was done in one go, without pause.

After finishing writing, Tang Hao smiled knowingly and seemed quite satisfied.

"Boom"

A gong rang.

The second game of war strategy is over.

The examiner collected and sorted out the test takers' answer sheets, and handed them to Duan Zhixuan: "The 50-point answer sheets have been collected. Please General Duan to count them."

After Duan Zhixuan used the count, the examiner divided it into three parts and sealed it with beeswax and handed it over to the three generals for review.

"Well, this one is not bad, it coincides with what I wanted..."

Duan Zhixuan praised while reviewing.

This sentence fell in Zhang Wu's ears, and Zhang Wu's heart moved.

"General Duan should have seen my answer sheet. God really helped me. General Duan on my birthday gave me a lot of rewards."

Looking at Tang Hao, who was dozing off not far to his side, Zhang Wu was even more proud, his eyes disdainful.

"You can't write anything good by measuring it, huh! I will crush you in this round."

"boom"

Zhang Gongjin patted the case, stared at the answer sheet in his hand, and shouted as if he had been a treasure.

"This answer sheet has unique insights, quite the legacy of the soldier Han Xin, really exquisite! It's amazing!"
