Chapter 45 Recruitment
"Envoy Zhou, this is the original copy." Ning Ze saw Zhou Hyun taking the bamboo slips and said with a smile, "The things you carry with you during the day are a pastime when your servant is bored. Who would have thought it was wrong! I hope you will apologize to Mr. Ling for me."
"It's okay!" Zhou Yu said, "Ning Wuku is also kind of good intentions. But the official has never seen the words before, and I don't know..."
"Emister Zhou doesn't have to care. It's just foreign languages and is useless in Dacheng Country." Ning Ze said with a smile.
This is true. No one in this world knows Chinese characters except itself.
Seeing Ning Ze skipping his words, Zhou Xu thought for a few seconds and gently opened the bamboo slip: "The first plan, Sun Tzu said: War is a major event in the country, a place of life and death..."
I was originally interested in Sun Tzu's Art of War, which I had never heard of before. I was surprised to see the content. The more I looked down, the bigger my eyes became, and I was completely immersed in it.
"Zhou Jun," Ning Zexin said that if it was Zhou Yuan, I would continue to cultivate friendship and improve bonds with him. Although Zhou Xu is very powerful this time, it would be best if he could learn special skills. But Liang Kai was still hiding behind him, so he said, "This book of military arts is given to Mr. Ling. I hope he can study hard and become a young hero with both civil and military skills in the future. You have a special identity, so please hurry back to the camp to avoid suspicion."
After hearing what he said, Zhou Yui wanted to continue reading down, and after reading Sun Tzu's Art of War in one breath, he still resisted putting the bamboo slips in his arms: "The content of this book is similar to Taizu's military books, and has its own unique insights, which is very precious. I wonder who came from? Could it be compiled by Ning Wuku?"
"Envoy Zhou was joking!" Ning Ze quickly waved his hand, smiled and shook his head, "This book is called Sun Tzu's Art of War. If it is compiled below, wouldn't it be Ning Ze's Art of War?"
"Yes!" Zhou Yu stared at Ning Ze with a bright look, "Is this master of military tactics surname Sun the army the Ningwuku army?"
"You can say that!" Ning Ze replied that he had learned Sun Tzu's Art of War and it seemed that it was right to say that he was the descendant of Sun Wu, but whether he would think it was another matter.
Zhou Yu's eyes lit up: "I don't know where the respected teacher is now? I want to visit him in person when Liang Yi's ant thief is pacified."
Unless you can travel through time, and you must travel through time to the era when Sun Wu is still alive on Earth, Ning Ze shook his head and replied: "The teacher has long gone and is not in the world!"
"Ah? What a pity!" Zhou Yu felt deeply regretful, "I didn't have the chance to meet such military masters... However, although the respected teacher passed away, he left these military books with Ning Wuku. I believe that Ning Wuku also has the essence of military masters?"
"Where is where? His attainment in military tactics is less than one thousandth of that of the teacher, which is really not worth mentioning." Ning Ze replied modestly.
"How could it be? I think Ning Wuku is very human." Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes and kept looking at Ning Ze, thinking of Tang Niu's comments on him.
"Envoy Zhou, don't kill the lower officials!" Ning Ze waved his hand and smiled, "The lower officials are just an insignificant literati in Hua County. They are in charge of the arsenal and cannot even speak in the convention hall. How can they learn from them?"
"I am quite accurate in my opinion. Ningwuku is definitely not a thing in the pool!" Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "The ant thief is doing evil, and the emperor dies! Now the great success is in danger. The heroes in the world should work together to suppress the thieves and repay the country's kindness! With your talent, why should you be in Hua County? If Ningwuku is interested, I will sweep the bed to greet him, and I will definitely be entrusted with important tasks!"
Liang Kai, who was hiding behind, almost jumped out to stop him when he heard this, but he still held back and tried not to make any sound. Let's hear what Ning Ze said first.
Faced with such direct recruitment by Zhou Yu, Ning Ze smiled and refused without hesitation: "I am grateful to you for your kindness from the envoy Zhou! It's just that the subordinates are not talented and knowledgeable, and the Liang family has kindness to me. The subordinates are reluctant to part with the industry and family in Huajun. I hope the envoy Zhou will forgive me!"
"Oh? Since that's the case, I don't force it." Zhou Yu looked at him thinking, and stopped and turned around and asked, "By the way! Nujiang County City Defense is stable, can Ningwuku have a plan?"
Ning Ze smiled and lowered his head: "The officials are talented and knowledgeable! The envoy Zhou and all the great masters are heroes at that time, and they have their own way to break the city!"
Zhou Yu's eyes stayed on him for a long time, and finally said, "Thank you for the military tactics of Ning Wuku. I will urge the dog to recite and study seriously. I'm upset!"
"Greatly send me the envoy Zhou~" Ning Ze bowed his fists and bowed down to salute.
When Zhou Yu walked away, Liang Kai came out from behind and was obviously relieved: "Finally left!"
"The eldest son should go back to the tent to rest!" Ning Ze turned around and smiled.
"Wait a minute," Liang Kai walked to the table, reached out to pick up the bamboo slips placed there, opened them and looked carefully for a few times, frowned and asked, "Is this the so-called Sun Tzu's Art of War?"
"This volume is a work of entertainment," said Ning Ze, "not a great writing."
"I heard it just now." Liang Kai nodded and put the bamboo slips back on the table. "Even governor Zhou praised this military book. Why did you give it to Zhou Yuan but never talk to us?"
Facing Liang Kai's inquiring gaze, Ning Ze shrugged: "The eldest son..."
"Hmm?" Liang Kai immediately interrupted him.
"Oh, yes! Brother Liang." Ning Ze changed his words with a smile, "The officials are all in their minds and have no concealment. They were recuperating from the Liang Mansion that day. You often come to play. The officials always write down the military tactics in front of you, but you only pay attention to the game, but you have never asked about the military tactics..."
"Uh~" Liang Kai looked embarrassed when he heard this, "Okay, it seems that's the case!"
"If Brother Liang is interested, the lower official can copy another volume."
"Is that so? It's a matter of determination." After all, Zhou Yu, the governor of Liangzhou, attached so much importance to Sun Tzu's art of war, which shows that Sun Tzu's art of war is not simple. Liang Kai immediately said, "I'll let Brother Ning in advance!"
"It's okay, it's just a trivial matter!" Ning Ze replied with a smile.
"Also!" Liang Kai hesitated, "Governor Zhou personally recruited him. If Brother Ning promised, he would be highly valued. Why did he refuse? Could it be because I was in the account?"
"No matter whether Brother Liang is here or not, I will not agree to the recruitment of governor Zhou." Ning Ze smiled, "The reason was clearly stated just now, it was all heartfelt words. Ling Zun was willing to save his life. Hua County also had Xiaguan's residence and hundreds of servants. Xia Officials have regarded Hua County as their home. How could he leave his hometown and be an ungrateful person!"
Liang Kai looked much better and grabbed Ning Ze’s hands excitedly: “Brother Ning, you said it well! You can rest assured that the five of us brothers will try to convince our grandfather to let him eliminate his prejudice against you!”
"Then I'll have a hard time brother Liang!" Ning Zexin said that his foundation was gone, and the Liang family in Huajun was even killed. I'm afraid that the Liang family's industries in each county in the county would suffer. When you go back, you probably have nothing. There is no difference between Liang Chun's prejudice against me if he doesn't resolve it.
After a few more greetings, he finally sent Liang Kai away. Because he had promised him, he took out his brush again before going to bed and started writing Sun Tzu's Art of War again.
On the other hand, Zhou Yu brought Sun Tzu's Art of War back to the camp, and asked someone to call on his adopted son Tang Niu and his youngest son Zhou Yuan.
The father and son gathered in the tent. Seeing Sun Tzu's Art of War in Zhou Yu's hand, Zhou Yuan's eyes lit up: "Father, this Art of War..."
"Oh! My father has already found Ning Ze and got a copy of the military tactics," Zhou Yu said, "I read a little just now, and it is no less than Taizu's military books, and even more sophisticated!"
"Really? Show me!" Zhou Yuan was impatient.
"Don't worry!" Zhou Yu waved his hand and asked him to sit down, "Let's read the complete military book for your father first, and I will teach you myself."
"Oh..." Zhou Yuan thought about it and didn't know many words, so she might not be able to understand them. Even if she brought them over, she had to ask her father's civil servants. It would be better if her father taught her personally.
"Father," Tang Niu bowed respectfully with his fists, "Since you have seen that person, what do you think?"
"Yes, Father! What do you think of Mr. Ning?" Zhou Yuan asked quickly.
Facing his two sons, Zhou Yu pondered for a moment: "Although this son is kind to others, smiling and approachable, he seems to be approachable, but he is not as simple as he seems. And his words are clear and temptations are useless to him! Although he does not feel any danger in him, the word "crawler" is not a false statement in general!"
"The child's intuition will not make any mistakes!" Tang Niu said seriously, "This person is definitely not a good person."
"Well~ My father wanted to recruit this person at that time, but he did not succeed! Later, he wanted to test it, but he also took it over. This person was still very powerful when he was able to be at ease in front of my father."
"Father, the child just sent someone to inquire," Tang Niu whispered, "This man encountered a big insect in the forests around Hua County. After escaping, he drowned and was rescued by Liang Chun's son Liang Teng. Liang Chun led his troops to attack the bandits of Pang Lishan. This man had offered advice. Liang Chun did not listen, but he actually returned as expected and fell ill. Liang Teng took charge of Hua County on behalf of his father. There were bandits of Pang Lishan outside and Liu Bao in chaos inside. The situation was critical. This man offered advice to deceive Liu Bao out of the city, causing the situation to be in danger.
The bandits in Pang Lishan fought with Liu Bao's army and both suffered losses. They set up a trap to lead the bandits into the city. They defeated the bandits with fire and eliminated the two enemies at the same time, making the Liang family's foundation stable. After this service, Hua County had few major generals. This person recruited refugees to supplement troops and solved problems such as spring farming and weapons workshops. They won many goals in one fell swoop. Liang Chun led the troops to join forces with Tong County, Dan County, and Wuduo County to suppress the generals of the general, and this person also offered advice twice to defeat the enemy with fire and made great contributions!"
"Oh? Is this really the case?" Zhou Xu was very surprised.
"It's true!" Tang Niu nodded and replied, "The child bought a huge amount of money from a member of Kong next to Liang Chun and found information from him. This person is Liang Chun's confidant, but he is a little greedy for money and is easy to ask."
"Liang Chun doesn't pay attention to this kind of plan?" Zhou Xun felt incredible.
"I heard that Liang Chun had a knot in his heart because of the battle between Pang Lishan bandits."
"Hmph! How can such a mind be accomplished?" Zhou Yu stood up, "If it were me, after the battle of Pang Lishan, he would immediately promote this person as an aide and stay by his side to assist."
