Chapter 128: Figures of various countries, knowing the autumn by seeing one leaf fall!

Because of childhood experiences!

Wu Ying is not greedy for power, and knows the suffering of the people.

She charges into battle on the battlefield, leading the charge, and can understand the suffering of the soldiers.

So she does not easily start military expeditions!

In military strategy, she adheres to the principles of seizing the opportunity, relying on calculation, and relying on deception.

Calculating the reality of the enemy army, and deceiving the enemy into the trap.

She is well-versed in military strategy, yet can adapt to local conditions, be flexible, and produce strange soldiers, repeatedly seizing the opportunity, not sticking to ancient methods, and forming her own school.

She can be called a true military genius.

Her mind is not the smallness of one country, but looking at the world, aiming at the world.

A true external hegemon and internal sage, a true king!

In his heart, he seems extremely familiar with Wu Ying's personality.

Yu Ke knows in his heart that this is Lu Chen's talent 【Knowledge of People】.

This talent is truly too amazing!

It seems even more terrifying than before; previously, just by relying on a person's biographical data, he could accurately judge their personality and character, as if the two had known each other for many years.

Now!

It seems he can feel what Wu Ying is thinking.

Yu Ke puts down the information, his eyes looking at the cities on the Hexi battle line.

He already has thoughts in his heart.

He continues to browse; after Wu Ying, it is.

Lady Gongsun Pingxi!

This person is the Prime Minister of Qianyuan, Lady Gongsun Pingxi, a person who governs the world, similar to the likes of Xie Chunan.

It is recorded!

When Wu Ying ascended the throne, Lady Gongsun Pingxi proposed the idea of reform, advocating the combined use of Confucianism and Legalism, valuing both the guidance of morality and the constraints of the system.

This thought was particularly important in the background of the time when the war had just ended and people were panicked.

In order to establish prestige and promote reform.

It is recorded!

Lady Gongsun Pingxi ordered a three-zhang-long piece of wood to be erected outside the south gate of the capital and posted a notice, claiming that whoever could move this piece of wood to the north gate would receive a reward of ten taels of gold.

Such a reward was undoubtedly an astronomical figure for ordinary people, so although the crowd discussed it, no one was willing to believe it.

To get such a generous reward for such an easy thing?

Seeing this, Lady Gongsun Pingxi increased the reward to fifty gold.

Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men; finally, a homeless man carried the wood to the north gate.

Lady Gongsun Pingxi immediately fulfilled his promise and rewarded the homeless man with fifty gold.

This move caused a sensation among the people!

Lady Gongsun Pingxi proved his integrity and determination with practical actions.

He established prestige in the hearts of the people, and the subsequent reforms were quickly promoted.

Yu Ke nods slightly; this person is extraordinary.

There is also a red annotation on the booklet!

"Three sheepskins, exchanged for a talent to secure the nation, the biggest deal in the world."

It is said that Lady Gongsun Pingxi was a slave, and Wu Ying exchanged him for three sheepskins.

Yu Ke slowly puts it behind; it is urgent now, and the war is imminent, so look at this person later.

Yu Ke opens the booklet belonging to Northern Barbarians!

The first person is also an old acquaintance, Tuoba Shuyi.

He skips the previous experience and only looks at what happened after the defeat to Lu Chen.

Tuoba Shuyi lost the war and also lost the succession right of Northern Barbarians, being imprisoned in the Honglu Temple.

Tuoba Shuyi did not give up, but secretly accumulated strength, finally launching a mutiny five years later, successfully seizing the throne.

After ascending the throne!

Tuoba Shuyi showed extraordinary ruling talent, not only recruiting soldiers and horses, vigorously expanding territory, but also recovering several important tribes in the North.

Ten years passed, and Northern Barbarians gradually recovered its peak strength.

Its momentum is not weaker than that year!

Marrying Daqing, joining forces with Han and Chu, this is the national policy Tuoba Shuyi has promoted in recent years.

It is worth noting!

In these fifteen years, Northern Barbarians has not launched a single soldier or horse against the northern border; this restraint is undoubtedly a manifestation of Tuoba Shuyi's deep foresight.

This is the first time Yu Ke has personally participated, flipping through his life, and he already knows "Tuoba Shuyi's heart is known to passersby."

Going south has always been his lifelong wish.

As such, it is just more forbearance; although people will always change, "the mountains and rivers are easy to change, but the nature is hard to change."

Yu Ke continues to flip to the second page!

Gu Yi!

The current Secretariat Director of Northern Barbarians, a position higher than the Prime Minister in Northern Barbarians.

Gu Yi, as a former staff member of the Second Prince, showed extraordinary strategic vision as early as the defeat of the Yellow River, first proposing the marriage between Northern Barbarians and Daqing.

After the Second Prince negotiated peace and ascended the throne.

Gu Yi again urged the Emperor to execute Tuoba Shuyi to prevent this person from becoming a future disaster.

"Tuoba Shuyi has the appearance of an eagle looking at a wolf, and has long been sharpening his sword; Your Majesty, do not sleep before the grave."

"If this person does not die, our heads will surely hang on the city gate in the future."

Regrettably!

The Emperor did not adopt his suggestion; he did not want to leave a bad reputation for killing his brother for future generations.

Gu Yi sighed, finally choosing to resign and return home.

The final result, as expected, Tuoba Shuyi rebelled, a great purge, and all his party members were beheaded.

Among them, one thing is recorded!

Tuoba Shuyi cherished talent and visited this person three times to invite him out of the mountains.

Gu Yi was afraid of Tuoba Shuyi's revenge.

He shirked once, pretended to be sick once, and the last time he was even preparing to escape, but was chased by Tuoba Shuyi overnight.

I don't know what happened that night, only the result is.

Gu Yi came out of the mountains and was appointed Prime Minister!

With Gu Yi's assistance, he advocated alliance, and Northern Barbarians achieved significant achievements in diplomacy; the secret alliance of the three kingdoms of Han, Chu, and Northern Barbarians was his personal effort.

In addition!

Gu Yi also attaches great importance to agricultural development, repeatedly proposing suggestions to the court to reclaim wasteland, and advocating for the equal distribution of reclaimed wasteland to the people for cultivation.

These years, he has been repairing water conservancy and transforming some nomadic people into farmers!

These years, he has also counted the population and land of Northern Barbarians and designed the "Fish Scale Register" to control the country.

There is also an annotation on the booklet:

"Military strategist, national policy strategist, both are geniuses."

Yu Ke nods; this person's talent is not inferior to Lady Gongsun Pingxi.

Next is the booklet of the Han and Chu kingdoms.

The two kingdoms are the weakest among the five kingdoms, and the two families have blood feuds.

Daqing's military is the weakest, but its national strength is not declining, and the prosperity of Jiangnan is the best in the world.

Previously, it was always Qianyuan's internal chaos and Han and Chu fighting.

Northern Barbarians went south to Daqing.

Finally!

Qianyuan ended the internal chaos and sent troops to the Chu Kingdom.

Han and Chu border each other, the lips are gone and the teeth are cold, forcing the two countries to unite to resist foreign enemies.

In this booklet, the record of the Chu Kingdom is not the Emperor.

But!

The Minister of War of the Chu Kingdom, Lady Gongsun Zhongshu.

This person is not only a heavyweight figure in the Chu Kingdom's political arena, but also a famous great Confucian; the Lady Gongsun Confucianism he advocates has risen rapidly in the Chu Kingdom for nearly thirty years, becoming an important ideological foundation for the Chu Kingdom's governance.

Lady Gongsun Confucianism is based on the five arts of the gentleman, integrating new ideological elements, forming a unique academic system.

In Great Chu, gentlemen are not only proficient in civil governance, but also need to possess martial arts and carry swords at their waists.

Gentlemen can also kill people with swords in the busy market!

Lady Gongsun Zhongshu himself has experienced three ups and downs, experienced twists and turns, and finally held power over the court.

When the Emperor was young and unable to govern personally, he acted on behalf of the state.

Internally, he adopted a policy of recuperation to promote national recovery and development, while externally, he actively promoted the alliance with the Han Kingdom.

Seeing this, Yu Ke already has the answer in his heart.

Only need to look at the Han Kingdom again.

He already has a strategy to break the enemy in his chest.

Seeing one leaf fall, and knowing the autumn cold of the world!
