Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 697 Vulnerable

  Wang Shouren looked at Chen Xian with a smile.

   Chen Xian is the surname of Champa, and Chen Xian is one of the few great Confucians in Champa.

  He listened to Wang Shouren's words and fell into thinking.

  Wang Shouren's words, from his point of view, he didn't quite agree with, but...he felt that there was some truth.

   Could it be that the sacred science has gone astray to this day?

Wang Shouren said: "The sage said, to make meritorious deeds, to establish virtue, and to establish words. This is the most difficult thing to establish. What is to establish words? To establish words on behalf of saints, to educate the world, and the study of saints. For thousands of years, everyone has said that education, education, can be done How many people have really been educated? Look, Mr. Chen, there are more than 2,000 people sitting here. Some of them are scholars, some are merchants, some are farmers, and some are working for others. Most of them are ordinary people. , but look at them, they gathered here for the purpose of learning the principles of saints."

"However, our Confucians have closed their doors to make the learning of sages more and more profound. Then dare to ask, do they have any words? They never have. If they have words, why do these thirsty people only have words? After arriving here, do you start to learn knowledge? Everyone is Yao and Shun, which is easier said than done. Some Confucianists think highly of themselves, and keep saying that children cannot be taught, or that rotten wood cannot be carved! Then, I I want to ask, if you don’t teach them, how do you know that they don’t understand the principles of sages, they can’t do Yao and Shun? If you don’t carve them carefully, how do you know that they are good wood or rotten wood?”

Wang Shouren said: "Therefore, the simpler the truth, the more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The simpler the truth, the more people can be taught, and the benevolent government of this saint can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If you are a scholar with mediocre qualifications, After learning my knowledge, I will know what it means in a month, so I will definitely celebrate. If a woodcutter learns my knowledge, and he can realize something in three months, I will be overjoyed. If a child, three to five Yue also knows what a benevolent government is and what a conscience is, so... I will dance happily. I am here to teach, not to be ashamed of the superficial, not proud of the profound knowledge; these two thousand people, just sit cross-legged Here, you can study with me in your free time, listen to my lectures on the Dao, occasionally feed chickens and ducks, learn archery, fencing, and medical skills, and I will be content."

  Chen Xian was actually moved.

  If so, in other places, when he talked with Wang Shouren, he might just think that what Wang Shouren said might make sense.

But... here, there are people all around, people hold their breath, very quiet, among them, there are old and young, some are tall and short, some are honorable and some are humble, but...they are all Here quietly, one by one looked at Wang Shouren reverently, as if wishing to always follow Wang Shouren's teachings.

  This kind of feeling... gave him a kind of surging tide, mighty and powerful, surging towards him, but he usually prided himself on being profound and a great Confucian, but he seemed helpless in the face of this tide.

  He thought deeply: "It's really enlightening to be able to listen to what you said. I don't necessarily agree with Wang Jun's truth, but I hope to stay here and listen to Wang Jun's lectures."

   "Please do what you want." Wang Shouren smiled slightly.

  Chen Xian stood up solemnly, bowed to Wang Shouren, then turned around, walked into the crowd, and sat down cross-legged among the crowd.

  He could feel a certain power in Wang Shouren's body, but he still stubbornly believed that how could a young man subvert the holy teachings that have been passed down for thousands of years.

   This is an ambivalence.

  He looked at Wang Shouren quietly.

  Unexpectedly, Wang Shouren stood up and said, "Today is a single day. Let's learn how to bow and horse first. Then you all go to the stables to fetch horses, prepare bows, crossbows and swords. Follow me back and forth for thirty li, and return at noon."

  The disciples said one after another: "I would like to obey the teacher's order."

   Then, one person got up.

  Since a few months ago, Wang Shouren went to Xishan, hoping that his teacher could send a batch of horses. From Xishan, the food team who stopped by Jiaozhi soon sent more than a thousand horses.

   These are Tatar horses.

   Fortunately, this kind of horse is the most hardworking, and there is a dedicated stableman in Xishan, who is most familiar with the habits of this Tatar horse.

  After bringing the horses here, Wang Shouren ordered people to build a horse stable.

  Students, when they come to school here, they will bring some rice stalks to feed the horses. This academy is already a big farm, the cost is getting bigger and bigger, but the output is also starting to increase day by day.

  As for the bow and crossbow, it was Fang Jinglong who sent it with a swipe of a pen.

  Although he didn't know what Wang Shouren was up to, but since he was his son's disciple, he also knew that it was not easy for Wang Shouren to study here.

  As for the sword, scholars can wear it, directly here, set up an iron stove to forge it.

There are more than two thousand people studying, learning how to bow horses, treating illnesses, and doing farm work. Learn farming, or blacksmithing.

  Wang Shouren explained that everyone is familiar with the road.

   It was Chen Xian who was dumbfounded.

  I want to listen to your lecture, why are you riding a horse again?

   I am an old bone, is it suitable?

  But at this time, a fast horse came quickly, and the person on the horse got off the horse and said: "Urgent report, urgent report..."

  Wang Shouren had no expression on his face, just stopped, waited for the knight to approach quickly, stretched out his hand, and took the letter. After reading the letter, many scholars gathered around him: "Men, what's the matter?"

  Wang Shouren was surprisingly calm: "Someone in Qinghua has rebelled."

  Everyone gasped.

  Wang Shouren continued: "The thieves have gathered tens of thousands of people, claiming to be one hundred thousand, and now they are attacking cities and territories, killing officials and soldiers, and everything they pass is wiped out."

   "Teacher, what should we do? If this is the case, the situation will definitely deteriorate. Why don't we move into the city immediately to prevent accidents." A student said.

  Wang Shouren smiled: "Actually, I expected that the current situation might change. The imperial court sent many officials here, but many people don't know the truth about Cochin, but they don't bother to know... Hey..."

  Wang Shouren sighed softly: "When a man encounters an accident, how can he hide? Has the sage ever taught you that you should avoid it?"

   All the disciples became silent.

  Finally, someone boldly said: "But the thieves have gathered tens of thousands of people. Don't underestimate them. When the army dispatches troops, this rebellion will inevitably spread..."

  Wang Shouren smiled: "It seems that you don't know soldiers, and even in this cochin, many people don't know soldiers."

   "..."

  Everyone looked puzzled.

  Wang Shouren said: "The rebellion has just happened, but it is so massive, why didn't you notice it beforehand?"

   "..."

   "Because this rebellion must have happened suddenly. If there is a plan, the person who planned it must strictly keep it secret. If you want to keep the secret strictly, then there will never be more than a hundred people who planned the rebellion in advance."

   Everyone fell into deep thought for a moment, is that right?

Wang Shouren continued: "So, this so-called gathering of tens of thousands of people, more of them are the people of Jiaozhi who took advantage of the grievances of the people. There are also many old Annan old nobles scattered all over the place, and there are countless others who were killed The coerced people."

   "They have just rebelled, and their momentum is so huge, but there is a fatal flaw."

Wang Shouren said with a smile: "This fatal shortcoming is that the uprising is hasty and seemingly large in scale. This rebel army is actually a collection of countless chaotic armies. Each of them has its own purpose. They didn't even know each other, so that many of them didn't train into the army at all. What they relied on was just one breath, so... the rebel army at this time seemed to be powerful, but in fact, they were mobs, unbearable hit!"

   Vulnerable!

  When Wang Shouren calmly said the word vulnerable, everyone was a little confused.

   What kind of confidence is this to say such a thing.

But Wang Shouren's face was as usual. His judgment was very clear, that is, the rebellion was a sudden result, and because of the suddenness, all kinds of people gathered. These people gathered because of an anti-obvious goal. But in fact, it is a mixture of dragons and snakes.

   Now that they want to come, they haven't reorganized yet, relying on one breath and the seemingly large number of people.

At this time, Wang Shouren said decisively: "So, it is not difficult to defeat them, but to defeat them, you must be quick. Once they make their upper echelon fight, they will finally win the bandit leader with the same order. Once their soldiers start to adapt gradually Fighting, and continuously recruiting strong men, training as a team, and understanding the main points of combat, then... it is terrible."

   "They cannot be given a chance to breathe, so they must be completely defeated within ten days. This is the only way to deal with the current traitors!"

Wang Shouren raised his eyes and looked at countless students: "These thieves are vulnerable. I am here as a teacher. I not only teach you the way of saints, but I also said that a man should make contributions and change the world. Now, a group of rebels are far away from us!" , It’s only three hundred miles away, they may not have any weapons in their hands, and they don’t even know how to wield sticks, but it’s too late for the officers and soldiers to dispatch bullets.”

"And now..." Wang Shouren said calmly: "Isn't it time to make contributions? Feng Yin's wife, isn't it also time? You have learned the principles of saints today, are you willing to be mediocre all your life, no, come into me Those who are disciples, you should be a hero! This matter is urgent, and I will lead you to attack the bandits as a teacher. You don’t have to be afraid, the number of bandits in the area is twenty or thirty times that of us, but in fact... it’s just a mob, vulnerable to a single blow!"

  ………

  Chapter 5 has been delivered, there will be more later, Tiger will post it before two o'clock, students, don't stay up late, go to bed, you can read it when you get up early tomorrow morning.
