Chapter 415: Luo Feng probes repeatedly

Luo Feng stepped forward: "Get out."

A simple word, but it scared the three of them. They muttered a few words, but in the end, they didn't dare to really provoke him, pretended to be unwilling, and slipped away quickly.

At this time, the woman in white slowly turned around.

The autumn sunlight shone on her clear and beautiful face through the sparse branches and leaves.

She looked at Luo Feng calmly, without the shyness or excessive gratitude of ordinary women after being frightened, just slightly bowed, performed a salute, and her voice was clear and calm: "Thank you, hero, for speaking out to solve the siege."

Luo Feng then saw the woman's appearance clearly, it was indeed a beauty trap, this appearance was extremely good.

Luo Feng waved his hand, his tone softened: "A small effort, girl, no need to be polite. These people are vulgar, disturbing the girl's interest."

Fu Qingshuang's eyes swept over the broken stele, and she said softly: "It can't be counted as interest, just seeing what this stele records, it is the matter of a great general of the previous dynasty, and I have some feelings in my heart. I didn't want to be disturbed by vulgar people."

"Which great general of the previous dynasty?" Luo Feng pretended to be attracted by the topic.

"It is General Li who conquered Beijiang in the previous dynasty!"

Fu Qingshuang explained: "It is recorded here that General Li observed the situation of mountains and rivers, used strange and positive troops, supplemented by spies, and then settled Beijiang. A few words tell the essence of the military family."

Luo Feng knew this person. The Triple Pass of Guansongling was built by the previous dynasty. At that time, there was no Beijiang on the territory of China.

It was this General Li who went out of Guansongling and conquered the vast Beijiang.

Luo Feng's heart moved, and he couldn't help but walk a few steps closer, looking carefully at those lines of words.

He was familiar with General Li's deeds, but this was the first time he saw this specific stele inscription.

"Does the girl also have involvement in military affairs?" Luo Feng looked at Fu Qingshuang with some surprise.

A young woman, in the back garden of this Buddhist temple, discussing military strategy in front of a broken stele, is really rare.

Fu Qingshuang shook her head slightly, "It can't be called involvement, I just read books in my leisure time and got something occasionally! My father... also liked reading history before he died, especially military strategy, Qingshuang was influenced by him! Let the hero laugh!"

She mentioned her late father, her tone was still calm, but a flash of extremely fast sadness flashed in her eyes, adding a bit of reality.

The sadness that flashed in Fu Qingshuang's eyes when she mentioned her late father was keenly captured by Luo Feng.

If it were in the past, he might have been moved by her "filial piety," but at this moment, knowing that this was a carefully arranged scene, this "sadness" in his eyes could not help but carry a bit of affectation and deliberate taste.

He sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he was calm, and instead followed her words, revealing just the right amount of sympathy and appreciation.

"So the girl has a family background, disrespectful."

Luo Feng nodded slightly, his tone slowed down, and his gaze fell back on the broken stele, "General Li went out of Guansongling that year and swept across Beijiang, which is indeed an extraordinary achievement.

His use of troops is most important for terrain and timing. What the stele says 'observing the situation of mountains and rivers' is indeed the key.

I don't know if the girl has more insights on this?"

He deliberately led the topic to specific military affairs, which not only conformed to his "martial general" persona, but also further probed whether this woman had only a flower frame or really had some real learning.

If she was really a chess piece carefully cultivated by the scholar-gentry, maybe she really put in some effort in this regard.

Fu Qingshuang didn't seem to expect that Luo Feng would really discuss specific tactics with her, and a trace of subtle surprise flashed in her eyes, but soon returned to calm.

She pondered slightly, reached out and pointed to a more blurred trace of handwriting on the stele: "'Take food from the enemy, advance by water and grass.'

General Li's expedition that year was difficult to supply, so he used this method more.

But the student thinks that the wonder of this strategy is not only in 'taking food,' but more in 'following the situation.'

It is necessary to know the geography, tribes, and climate of the enemy territory like the back of one's hand to perform this dangerous move, like an arm pointing to a finger.

Among them, intelligence collection, guide selection, and even negotiations with local tribes are all related to success or failure, not just bravery."

Her speaking speed was calm and her logic was clear. She not only pointed out the surface meaning of "taking food from the enemy," but also went deep into the logistics and intelligence details that supported this tactic, such as intelligence, guides, and diplomacy, showing that it was not a panacea of rote memorization.

Luo Feng felt cold in his heart. If this woman was really cultivated by the scholar-gentry, her learning and teaching were probably far beyond ordinary boudoir, and her purpose was very strong.

"Girl's high opinion."

Luo Feng praised her sincerely this time, and then changed the subject, asking as if unintentionally, "Now that Guanzhong has just been settled and everything is waiting to be done, what does the girl think should be the priority if we follow the ancients and manage a place?"

This question looks ordinary, but it actually contains mystery. It can not only probe her political insights, but also observe whether she has extraordinary attention to the current situation.

Fu Qingshuang's eyes moved slightly, and she looked up at Luo Feng.

She was silent for a moment before saying slowly: "Qingshuang is just a woman, how dare I talk about military and political affairs. However... since the hero asked, I will dare to say a word.

The commoner thinks that whether it is the ancient General Li settling Beijiang, or people settling a place now, the priority is still the two words 'settling the people.'

The granary is full and then knows etiquette, food and clothing are sufficient and then knows honor and disgrace.

The people live and work in peace, and then they can enjoy their work! The stability of the people's hearts is the foundation.

As for how to settle the people... Qingshuang's foolish opinion is nothing more than light corvee and thin taxes, encouraging agriculture and mulberry, clarifying laws, clearing official governance, and making the people get their places."

She pulled the topic from specific military management back to the broad "ancient teachings of settling the people," and quoted the words of sages, which were steady and watertight, neither involving evaluation of Beijiang's current policies, nor showing a certain pattern and insight.

Luo Feng's evaluation in his heart was higher. This woman not only understands military affairs, but also understands political strategy, and her words are cautious and her response is appropriate. She is indeed a person carefully cultivated by the scholar-gentry.

He laughed, covering up the calculation in his eyes: "What the girl said is all right, Luo has been taught. Meeting by chance today, being able to discuss these with the girl is an unexpected joy. It's just that I have military affairs, it's not convenient to stay for a long time, so I will say goodbye."

He deliberately said his surname this time, wanting to see the other party's reaction.

Fu Qingshuang's face had no surprise or sudden realization after hearing the surname "Luo," and she still bowed calmly: "General Luo is busy with military affairs, Qingshuang dare not delay. Thank you for solving the siege that day, if there is fate in the future, I will listen to your teachings again."

The attitude is neither humble nor arrogant, neither the joy of clinging, nor the attitude of deliberately avoiding suspicion, as if she really just met a passerby who could talk.

Luo Feng didn't say much, arched his hands, turned and walked away.

The moment he turned around, the gentleness and appreciation he pretended to have faded away quickly.

This scene, the other party performed well, almost without flaws.

But the more perfect it is, the more deliberate it appears.

For that surname "Luo," she reacted too "normally," so normal that it didn't look like a boudoir woman who met a strange man by chance and just learned the other party's surname.

He didn't think he was very famous, but for him who had just conquered Chang'an, his popularity was still there!

And a woman who knows military strategy and appears in Chang'an, how can she not know him? ===== CHAPTER 416 =====
