"I feel that it is shallow on paper. Wen Yang, I have to practice this book while reading it." Seeing Li You so fascinated, Qi Jiguang couldn't help but persuade, "Otherwise, even if I recite this military book, I would be just Zhao Kuo."

"Zhao Kuo is not a mediocre general. He can force Wu'an Jun Bai Qi to ask for help from the King of Qin. The King of Qin personally went to Hanoi to summon young and fifteen years old to support him. He was besieged by Bai Qi for a month and could maintain the army's disintegration. This is not something that ordinary generals can do. If you want to blame him, I can only blame the Qin army for being too powerful and Wu'an Jun is too powerful." Li You raised his head and subconsciously retorted.

If Zhao Kuo was replaced by Qi Jiguang, how would the Battle of Changping develop? With the strength of Zhao State back then, Qi Jiguang may not be able to defeat Bai Qi, but there is no doubt that he will definitely cause greater harm to the Qin army than Zhao Kuo. Perhaps the time for Qin Shihuang to unify the six kingdoms will be postponed, right? Li You was thinking in his heart.

"Wenyang's words are not unreasonable." Qi Jiguang gave Zhao Kuo's example and just said it casually. Who made General Zhao's affairs so famous? "With Zhao's strength at that time, even if Lian Po was not replaced, he would probably not be able to stop Bai Qi's attack. Perhaps it would only take some more time, but even so, Zhao could not hold on."

"Qi just said that Wenyang wanted to walk and read more in our army, and avoid books as the basis for everything." Qi Jiguang, who even criticized the reading of "The Art of War", obviously did not want Li You to regard his military books as Guigao, which was not beneficial to a leading general.

"I woke up late, thank you for General Qi's teachings." Li You stood up and bowed respectfully. The first draft of "Ji Xiao New Book" that Qi Jiguang took out was extremely precious, and this teaching was even more earnest, which made him very grateful to Qi Jiguang.

"It's getting late today, so Wenyang should go back and rest first. When I teach archers tomorrow, I can practice the other soldiers in Guankai everywhere in the camp, and compare them with the book. I will naturally learn faster." Qi Jiguang was extremely satisfied with his attitude, "If you have any questions, you can come to the account to ask me."

"I remember that I will definitely ask General Qi for advice." Li You bowed and thanked him again. At the beginning, he and Chen Qingzhi only had verbal exchanges in learning military tactics, but they were learning with Zhang Xun while fighting. However, the battle in Suiyang was too difficult. He and Zhang Xun were very busy and did not have so much time to communicate in depth. Now that they met Qi Jiguang, they could finally make up for the regrets of the first two. They could study while practicing, and they could also ask him for advice from time to time, not to mention that the Battle of Taizhou will be ushered in the year. This is an unprecedented opportunity for Li You to learn.

When he returned to his residence, Li You didn't have time to rest and lit the lights overnight to study. The next morning, when Qi Jiguang got a little free, he went to ask for questions he had encountered during the study.

"The first priority is to select troops. From Qi's perspective, the method is only good. People who use slim cities and tricky people are not available. Only honest people in the countryside are the best choice. Fengwei, martial arts, great strength, smartness should not be abandoned or relied on. He is only brave enough to make him stronger and stronger. Fengwei and smart, and review martial arts, which adds icing on the cake." Qi Jiguang slowly interpreted Li You's doubts, "Slick people always want to take advantage of loopholes in military law, and are mostly timid people. If they allow these people to get into the army, they will not only fail to practice well, but also lead the same army, so they will never use it."

Li You couldn't help but nodded, as if the veterans in later generations also liked new recruits from rural areas because they were honest and obedient, not as difficult as urban soldiers. However, the form changed later. With the development of science and technology, the requirements for soldiers' knowledge level are getting higher and higher, and urban soldiers with relatively high cultural level have become new darlings.

"The training of troops must start from actual combat. If the things used to fool the boss, even if they have been practiced for a thousand years, what is the use of it? It will still be born in the battle. If the camp skills you learn and learn on weekdays are the same as those you learn on weekdays, when you use them on weekdays, you will have a day of effectiveness in one day of practice. If you practice one thing, you will get a benefit." This emphasizes the combination of training and actual combat, and all training must be closely linked to actual combat.

Didn’t the things that were trained when they first arrived at the imperial guards of the Great Wei Jing camp just used to fool Li Gui? Is it wasted a month just to make him happy, but when he arrived at the battlefield with Tang Kuo’s troops, all this was useless. Didn’t the imperial guards of the Great Wei return in a crushing defeat? If they had trained more combat methods with cavalry from the beginning, maybe they wouldn’t have been defeated so badly at that time, right?

This kind of training idea is not only useful in military affairs, but also serves as a guiding role in other places. For example, the daily training of competitive sports, such as the college entrance examination mock exam that almost everyone has experienced, Qi Jiguang expressed in "Ji Xiao New Book", even after hundreds of years.

"The way of being a general is to be the first to lead the army, not to be the first to the battle, but to be the first to the sufferings. The so-called "same taste is not the same as the same as the same taste in times of hardships, but also to be the same taste in times of peace. Moreover, how can the soldiers be used to learn skills alone? Will the general disdain?" The general must not only have the literary and military strategy of leading troops to defeat the enemy, but also be proficient in various skills and set an example for soldiers; not only should they share weal and woe with soldiers in wartime, but they should also share the joys and sorrows with soldiers everywhere in peacetime.

Didn’t I win their trust when I led the Han mission to empty the Western Regions? After all, I was a minority of Confucian generals like Chen Qingzhi and Wei Rui. There were countless literati who wanted to learn from them in later generations, but there were no one who could be said to have learned it; Li You couldn’t stop nodding.

In the next few months, Li You either carefully studied Qi Jiguang's manuscript, watched the soldiers' training everywhere in the Qi family army camp, or asked Qi Jiguang for his doubts; he even personally participated in several small-scale operations of the Qi family army, and consciously benefited a lot.

This period of systematic learning gave him a new understanding of military strategy. Thanks to his meeting with a good teacher like Qi Jiguang and famous generals like Huo Qubing who rely on their talents to fight. Their way of using military forces is in their own minds. Perhaps they can be invincible and invincible, but if they teach others, there is nothing they can do. Although a general like Cheng Bushi is strict in his military governance, he is too restricted in the rules.

However, Qi Jiguang is the best teacher. He is not only extremely talented, but also can write down what he thinks in his heart and teach them to others in an orderly manner. He can guide his studies through practice. Li You feels glad that he has entered this world again.
