Chapter 1232: Talented and eager
“Jingzhao Du Yu, I’ve seen the Central Protector!”
Du Yu, who was in his weak years, did not know whether it was because of the decline of Du family in his early years that he was running around, or because he often basked in the sun while doing practical work in Hedong.
The skin seems to be rougher than that of ordinary people from aristocratic families.
The face also looks more mature.
If he had not known that he was only in his weakest years, Feng Duhu would not have thought that he was already twenty-four or five years old.
Maybe it’s due to preconceptions.
No matter what you heard about Du Yu from other people, or you saw Du Yu in front of you wearing narrow sleeves and tight clothes, dressed as a working man.
Feng Duhu was very attracted to this young man.
"sit."
“Thank you to the Protector for the throne.”
Du Xuan bowed and sat down carefully.
“You are considered a student of the college anyway, so you don’t need to see anyone outside. Just call the mountain chief.”
As soon as Du Yu heard this, his face suddenly showed a look of surprise and joy. He immediately raised his buttocks that had not yet settled down and bowed deeply again:
“Student Du Yu has seen the mountain leader!”
Although it stands to reason that when things happen in Hedong, he will definitely study in a college after returning to Chang'an.
But if I don’t go back for a day, the matter of the academy will not be completely settled, and I will always feel a little uneasy.
Hearing what Feng Duhu said at this time, doesn't it mean that his entry into the academy has been guaranteed?
After all, if Feng Duhu’s say about this college matter doesn’t count, then who else can have the final say?
Du Yu is not a pedantic person. A pedantic person cannot achieve such great achievements as in the original history.
Of course, Feng Duhu did not know what achievements Du Yu had made in the original history.
Because he has a problem. When watching Three Kingdoms, he would read the plot before losing Jingzhou over and over again.
Lost Jingzhou to Wuzhangyuan, I look at the jujube.
Wuzhang Yuan was destroyed by Shu, but he jumped to see it.
As for after Shu was destroyed...
Isn’t the Three Kingdoms over? What a fart!
(Note: This has been mentioned in the previous article)
At most, when taking a history class, memorize a general historical context.
For example, the Three Huainan Rebellions was a big event, and the main characters were very clear. In addition, Zhuge Dan had some relationship with Zhuge Liang, so it was easier to remember.
By the time the Kingdom of Wu was destroyed, it was already the Sima Jin era, one of the most **** dynasties.
Only remember the nine-level Zhongzheng system.
Just remember that there are no poor families in the upper class, and there are no noble families in the lower class.
Just remember that men are as weak as chickens and need help when going out.
I only remember the arrogance of the family, I only remember the metaphysics and talk about it...
Of course, the biggest event was the sinking of the Central Plains and the chaos in China.
Then the big families either traveled south in their clothes or colluded with the barbarians.
These alone make people subconsciously resist learning more about this dynasty.
Not to mention that Jin had six armies to destroy Wu, so there were six commanders. Du Yu was just one of them, how to remember it?
However, Du Yu's reaction did make Feng Duhu somewhat satisfied.
In recent years, the imperial court has vigorously promoted the New Deal, involving wealthy families in Sili, Bingzhou, Hedong and other places.
Feng Duhu could not remember Du Yu, but he must have known about Du in Jingzhao.
Du Yu’s reaction just illustrates Du’s attitude towards the New Deal.
This is also reasonable.
Jingzhao Du family had already declined before Du Yu's grandfather Du Ji.
Du Ji finally revitalized his family. Unexpectedly, Du Shu, Du Ji's son, was at odds with Cao Wei's ministers at court and offended Sima Yi abroad.
In the end, he had to be forced to admit his illness and retire into seclusion. As the son of Du Shu, Du Yu was naturally implicated and it was difficult to get ahead.
With Du Shu's retirement, it meant that the Du family in Jingzhao was forced to withdraw from the political center of Cao Wei.
Who would have expected that there would be a leak in the house, but it would rain all night, and that he would encounter his mortal enemy Sima Yi guarding Guanzhong, making life even more difficult.
The restoration of Guanzhong by Master Wang was like a rainy day after a long drought for the Du family.
As for the new policy of the imperial court, it is even more of a great joy.
So when Du Yu heard Feng Duhu asked him to call him the mountain chief, he immediately bowed his head and bowed. This was very reasonable, sincere and without any pretense.
"Sit, sit, sooner or later, don't look like this."
Feng Duhu stretched out his hand and pressed it down, signaling Du Yu to sit down.
Du Yu bowed again and then sat upright.
“Do you know why I called you here?”
“The students don’t know.”
“I once heard Ji Yan highly praise Yuan Kai, saying that your talents are far better than his.”
Upon hearing this, Du Yu quickly showed humility:
"This is Ji Yan's promotion of his students. How can students be so virtuous and capable that they dare to say they are better than the backward leaders of Hedong?"
Feng Duhu waved his hand:
"There is no need to be modest. Ji Yan is my disciple. I know his temperament. The person who can make him say this is definitely not an ordinary person."
With that said, Feng Duhu looked at Du Yu, "What's more, besides Ji Yan, I also heard your name from Governor Jiang."
Favors only count if they are implemented in practice.
With Feng Duhu’s status, there is no need to pretend to accept favors from others.
So he wanted Du Yu to understand who he was sitting here because of.
“From Governor Jiang’s introduction, I know that you have a different perspective on the current war situation.”
Feng Duhu stood up, picked up the whip, and clicked on the map hanging on the tent wall:
“Many generals in the army thought that if I led the army here, sooner or later I would send my troops north to recapture the eldest son.”
Du saw this and quickly stood up.
Feng Duhu turned around and looked at Du Yu:
“You are the only one who thinks that going north is worse than going south, right?”
“I dare not hide it from the principal, the student did say this.”
Feng Duhu nodded and asked:
“Go south and capture Gaodu City, and then what? Do you have any ideas for the next step?”
Du Yu's eyes lit up and he moved slightly. He subconsciously wanted to step forward, but he immediately reacted and quickly stood up again.
Seeing his appearance, Feng Duhu waved his hand:
“It seems you really have an idea? Come over and tell me more about it.”
After receiving the order, Du Yu stepped forward, took a deep breath, and then plucked up the courage, stretched out his finger, and tapped Gaodu's position:
“Chief of the Mountain, from the news sent by General Shi Zhonglang, Sima Division was defeated in the battle of Gaoping Pass and fled to Gaodu.”
“Sima Shi is not the enemy of General Zhonglang, let alone the enemy of the Mountain Chief. If the Mountain Chief leads his army from Gaoping Pass to the south and seizes Gaodu, he will definitely be able to conquer Gaodu in one fell swoop.”
"At that time, Sima Division will suffer two defeats in a row, and the morale of the army will be shaken. At that time, they may want to defend Tianjing Pass but not be able to do so!"
“The chief of the mountain can take advantage of the great victory and seize the Tianjing Pass, and then Taihangxing will be within the palm of the chief of the mountain.”
“As long as the mountain leader leads the army into Hanoi, the bandit army in Zhiguan will be attacked from the back and front.”
"If the thieves don't want to be wiped out, they have no choice but to leave Zhiguan and retreat to Henan. In this case, Hanoi will definitely be the same!"
When Feng Duhu heard this, his eyes widened. He couldn't help but tap his palm with his long whip and said in admiration:
“Wonderful!”
His eyes fell on the map again, and the long whip clicked on the Dang and Taiyuan:
“We haven’t seen Sima Yi’s main force so far. I think he must have taken advantage of the Han’s unpreparedness to capture Taiyuan.”
“It’s understandable not to kill the eldest son to regain Shangdang, but what about Taiyuan?”
Speaking of this, Feng Duhu seemed to have thought of something and glanced at Du Yu meaningfully.
This young man is indeed not as simple as he seems on the surface.
Everyone in the government and the opposition thought that they would be eager to regain the Shangdang as soon as possible, but he did not think so, which really won my heart.
After all, it’s not me, the Central Protector, who lost the Shangdang, so why should I be anxious?
If Shangdang does not recover for a day, the person who is hung up and slapped in the face is Wei Yan, the one from the palace. What does it have to do with me, the Central Protector?
Seeing Du Yu, he smiled confidently:
“Chief of the mountain, are you testing me? General Guan led his cavalry to support Taiyuan, followed by tiger cavalry.”
"Sima Yi will be fine if he doesn't attack the city. If he dares to attack the city, as long as General Deng can hold on for a few more days, and when General Guan follows him, Sima Yi will have wings on both sides and will not be able to escape!"
Feng Duhu gathered his thoughts and sighed:
"The war is unpredictable, how can we take any chances? Yuan Kai doesn't know something. Taiyuan doesn't have many troops, so it can be said that the defense is empty."
“If Sima Yi is unprepared in Taiyuan and leads a large army to attack Jinyang, Jinyang may be difficult to defend.”
Du Yu naturally did not know the deployment of troops in Bingzhou.
Hearing Feng Duhu's words at this time, he couldn't help but be startled.
His eyes fell on Taiyuan County on the map.
After thinking for a moment, a smile appeared on his face again:
“Even so, there’s no need to worry!”
"oh?"
Feng Duhu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "What should I say?"
Du Yu pointed up to the mountains between Dang and Taiyuan and said:
“Sima Yi attacked Taiyuan from Shangdang, but there were only a few roads he could take.”
As he spoke, he moved his fingers to Jinyang’s position:
“It’s not a short journey from Shangdang to the north to Jinyang.”
“Even if Jinyang falls and is occupied by Sima Yi, as long as General Guan can lead his army into Taiyuan, he will definitely be able to cut off the connection between Shangdang and Jinyang!”
At this point, Du Yu looked at Feng Duhu and emphasized his tone:
“Unless Sima Yi can defeat General Guan’s cavalry, his future will be equally worrying. Even if he captures Jinyang, there is no chance that he will be trapped in an isolated city!”
Feng Duhu smiled and said, "You have full confidence in General Guan."
When Du Yu heard this, his eyes widened slightly. He seemed a little surprised that Feng Duhu would say this:
“Is there anyone in the world who can compete with the cavalry led by General Guan on plain ground?”
This is not just about confidence in General Guan.
At the same time, she also has confidence in the Han cavalry she leads.
Not to mention the Tiger Cavalry Army as the final guarantee.
Taiyuan County is the largest grain producing area in Bingzhou. It can be said that the road is smooth, and the cavalry can move freely. What can the thieves use to fight General Guan?
Seeing Du Yu’s expression, Feng Duhu couldn’t help but laugh out loud:
“So, Taiyuan is worry-free?”
“According to the students, it is indeed worry-free.”
"That's a little strange." At this time, Feng Duhu's face finally showed a serious look, "In your opinion, it is a mistake for the thieves to go north to attack Jinyang."
“Sima Yi is a man who knows military skills after all. How could he not see the danger of this move?”
“Logically speaking, after he attacks Shangdang, it is best to capture Gaoping Pass immediately, so that he can hold on to Shangdang.”
“But there has been no news about him so far. Apart from going north to capture Taiyuan, where else might he be?”
This problem finally stumped Du Yu.
He opened his mouth, but no words came out because he couldn't explain Sima Yi's motives.
He glanced at the mountain chief with a somewhat solemn look, and suddenly felt blessed, and couldn't help lowering his voice:
“It is precisely because of this concern that the mountain chief has deliberately delayed it until now. Could it be that he is waiting for news from General Guan?”
Feng Duhu was startled and looked at Du Yu thoughtfully: "Delay?"
Du Yu finally got such an opportunity to perform in front of Feng Duhu, so he didn't hide any clumsiness.
But seeing him muster up the courage to reveal Feng Duhu’s thoughts:
“Since the mountain chief came out of the mountain, he has led troops on expeditions and has mastered the art of war: he is as fast as the wind, as slow as the forest, as invading and plundering as fire, and as motionless as a mountain.”
"Attack Longguan, fight back at Jieting, force Anding to surrender, fight back at Xiaoguan, conquer Qiaoshan, and then move to Bingzhou. Their momentum is like wind and fire, unstoppable."
"But since the Shangdang started the war, the mountain commander has been uncharacteristically slow and has been slow. In fact, he is waiting for news from Sima Yi and wants to know his intentions, right?"
Hearing Du Yu's words, Feng Duhu calmed down the expression on his face, looked at him deeply, then turned around without saying a word and sat back in his commanding position.
When Du saw Feng Duhu looking like this, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly retreated downstairs and stood with his hands solemnly raised.
The camp suddenly became quiet, and Du Yu seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat.
There is no way, no matter how powerful he is, he is just a twenty-year-old man.
Under the gaze of the world-famous Feng Duhu, it is definitely impossible to say that there is no tension in my heart.
Just when Du was wondering if he was a little too impulsive, Feng Duhu finally spoke:
“What is Yuan Kai’s life ambition?”
Du Hua did not expect Feng Duhu to suddenly ask him this question, but he immediately answered subconsciously:
"The ancients have said: The most important thing is to establish virtue, the second is to perform meritorious service, and the third is to establish words. Even if it lasts for a long time, this is called immortality. Establishing virtue is beyond the reach of prediction, but there is the will to perform meritorious service and to establish words."
Feng Duhu nodded:
“If you can answer this question immediately, it shows that you have already made up your mind.”
“The so-called meritorious service is to save people from disasters and help the time; if you want to make a good statement, you must get the key points of your words and be able to convey the truth.”
"Today the world is boiling with thieves occupying all sides and committing tyranny. The people are in dire straits and cannot bear the harsh government. If you want to save the country from disaster and get the best out of your time, you must lead the army to put an end to the chaos and quell the thieves."
Feng Duhu put down his long whip, put his hands on the desk, leaned forward, stared at Du Yu, and emphasized his tone:
"My ambition is also to eliminate thieves and put an end to chaos, restore peace to the world, protect the people's peace, and prevent future generations from suffering from wars. I will revitalize the Han Dynasty three times, restore the prestige of the Han Dynasty, and be connected to the sky and the earth."
At this point, he asked one word at a time:
“Yuan Kai, are you willing to help me?”
Du Yu's breathing suddenly became heavy.
This is an invitation personally sent to me by a disciple of the Shanmen, the most important minister of the Han Dynasty, a famous general in the world, who created a generation of writing style, and has a unique talent in the world. He is probably the most powerful arithmetic master in the world.
Du Yu felt his blood surge up all of a sudden, and he felt a little rumbling in his forehead.
His legs went weak and he knelt down directly:
“Disciple Du Yu, I would like to pay my respects to you, sir! I would like to thank you for your help, sir. I am willing to accept your request.”
After finishing speaking, he kowtowed three times and bowed nine times, making a thumping sound.
Feng Duhu accepted the worship calmly.
This is his fifth disciple - not counting a certain eldest disciple who became Mrs. Mei.
