At night, Yanling, Wang Wei and the chief general Guo Yuanjian met with the rushing back. The rush received an important news from his own camp:

Liang Jun, who was stationed in Jurong, had a weapon called "Serial Crossbow".

After hearing this, Wang Wei laughed: "Repeat crossbow, so that's it. No wonder he dared to fight with new recruits who had been practicing for more than a month."

"Repeat crossbow?" Guo Yuanjian was a little confused. He had never seen a crossbow called "Repeat crossbow", and he had never even heard of it.

Wang Wei explained: "It is said that it was a fast crossbow made by Zhuge Kongming, also known as the "Zhuge Crossbow", which can shoot several arrows in a volley. Once a large number of crossbow soldiers shoot at them, the killing is extremely strong, but there is no real object, and I don't know what the structure is."

"What does the prince mean?"

"Since Li Li only asked the new recruits to practice crossbows and secretly brought many crossbows with the army. I thought he was planning to fight, but suddenly he took it out and used it, trying to catch our army off guard."

Wang Wei said this and laughed: "Of course the recruits who have been practicing for a month cannot fight. However, standing in the formation and shooting with a crossbow can kill many soldiers. This is interesting to Li Li."

Guo Yuanjian asked: "He is also good at siegeing the city, so the prince wanted to capture him alive and use it for his own use?"

"That's right, there are not many such talents. Of course, you have to recruit them." Wang Wei said, asking the man: "Have he said what those two Poyang people said during their conversation."

"He said that the two Poyang people were speaking Poyang dialect. They thought others could not understand, but he could understand. They happened to feed the horses next to him, so they all listened."

Wang Wei pondered: "Poyang dialect...you go back first."

After watching, Wang Wei said to Guo Yuanjian: "If the two of them talked in Jiankang's dialect, they must have said it to others on purpose, then the news should be heard in the opposite way."

"However, Li Li is from Poyang, and the troops who brought the command of the governor were his fellow Poyang people. They thought the recruits could not understand Poyang dialect, so they talked in Poyang dialect. Then, the news would be very credible."

"Prince, since this is the case, how should our army guard against this crossbow when we are in war?"

Guo Yuanjian asked, Wang Wei was resourceful, as if there was nothing in the world that he didn't know, so the princes and kings relied heavily on him, and their generals also admired Wang Wei very much.

"It's easy. When advancing in an array, you can use swords and shields to advance. No matter how powerful the crossbow is, it is just a kind of crossbow. Although it can fire several arrows in a row, its power is just that."

"If it were really an irresistible magic weapon, Zhuge Wuhou would have destroyed Cao Wei and Sun Wu long ago."

Wang Wei said, sighing: "I have only seen the crossbow in classics, but I don't know how Li Li made it."

Guo Yuanjian smiled and said, "It's okay. When our army wins a great victory, he will capture Li Li and get a physical crossbow. The prince can ask carefully."

Speaking of General Liang Guocai Li who went to the army to fight, Wang Wei did not forget to explain: "This person is good at equipment and siege. He can actually go to Shouyang and Zhongli quickly, and also make flying equipment."

"If we can serve the king, then the next siege will be much easier."

"I understand, I will try my best to save his life." Guo Yuanjian said that the war was about to be fought was very relaxed.

They divided their troops to attack the Three Wus, and the emperor in Jiankang City could not sit still. He sent Xichang Hou Xiao Yuanming to lead his army eastward and arrived in Jurong.

After careful investigation, I realized that this army had nearly 10,000 troops, and next, it is likely to attack Yanling.

So, soon after, Guo Yuanjian will lead his army to win and lose with Xiao Yuanzao. He has absolutely confidence in winning this battle.

As for whether the talented general Li Li could be captured alive, Guo Yuanjian was not sure, but Wang Wei came to supervise the battle in person just for Li Li, which shows how much the prince attached importance to this person.

"Prince, I'm worried that I'll capture him alive, but I can't let him serve the prince."

"It's okay, just bring him to me." Wang Wei always had a confident expression, "I only need a few words to make him convinced and serve the king."

Seeing that Guo Yuanjian was a little confused, Wang Wei explained: "Since the establishment of the country, Xiao has always suppressed cold military generals. Li Li has worked so hard that he must be thinking of promoting his military merits. I just need to tell him the reality and he will naturally understand."

Wang Wei had some understanding of the Liang State system and found a ridiculous fact: the Liang State court suppressed the military personnel and set up many obstacles to prevent the cold people from improving their status with their military merits and even becoming a member of the gentry.

Wang Wei thought about this system and introduced it: "The general of Liang State is not included in the official system and has its own system. After three reforms, it is now divided into thirty-four classes, and most classes are expensive..."

"Squad 1 to 7 are called foreign military names, which are equivalent to foreign officials, and are specially set up for cold military generals."

"Above 8 squads, the same as the internal officials, has 230 generals."

When Guo Yuanjian heard this, he exclaimed: "Two hundred and thirty generals? Is Xiao trying to encourage military merits?"

"Hahaha, do you think so too?" Wang Wei smiled, his smile a little cold: 'This is the cleverness of Old Man Xiao, but unfortunately, it can't be hidden from anyone who wants to do it.'

"The general's name is called the general and the miscellaneous general. The general's name of Liang State starts from thirty squads, which is the general, with a total of thirty-five ones."

"Then, there are 195 general numbers in the stream from Class 7 to Class 29, which are deliberately set up to fool people."

"Think about it, if you walk the steps up to the high building, the height remains unchanged, if there are more steps, will you take more steps?"

Guo Yuanjian nodded, and Wang Wei said again: "The children of the gentry from Liang State entered the officialdom and started the general's title. At least they were Class 13, but what about the cold people?"

"They have to start from the generals below and make continuous military achievements to climb up one after another, and to the generals of the 13th squad within the 13th squad within the 13th stairs, with more than one hundred and thirty steps apart."

"Look, how many times do these people have to make military achievements and how much military achievements can they make before they can transfer to the military number of the Thirteenth Clause? Do they have the life to make a fortune?"

"That's not all. The children of the gentry who had higher families had higher generals, such as General Ningyuan of Class 23."

"General Ningyuan, why is this military name so familiar?" Guo Yuanjian murmured, and Wang Wei reminded: "Guardian Caishi, General Ningyuan Wang Zhi."

"Oh, it's him, the waste who escaped directly regardless of quarry defense?"

"Yes, however, he is a son of the Wang family of Langya, so the general's number cannot be low. As soon as he comes up, he will be the military name of the 23rd class. How about it, is it full of martial ethics?"

"Yes, yes..." Guo Yuanjian laughed and almost laughed out loud, "It's so full of martial ethics!"

Wang Wei also smiled, with cynical and unwilling smile.

"Old Mr. Xiao set up so many military numbers, which seems to encourage military merits, but in fact it is to increase the levels. He wants to cut off the idea of ​​changing family status with military merits. The gentry has always been the gentry, and the cold tribe will always be the cold tribe!"

"Even if the cold man can fight, he has to slowly climb the military stairs, more than 200 steps, and he will never be able to climb the position of the general of the heavy stairs in his life. Don't try to raise his family!"

"The family cannot be promoted. Their son, who started the general, had to start from the bottom of the steps and climb again!"

"Where are those gentry children? The starting point is at the lowest point in the middle of the steps. Haha, this is the martial virtue of Xiao. The cold people work hard on the battlefield. Unless they are supported by the powerful, they will never think of making a name for themselves in their entire lives!"

"They suppressed the cold warriors for decades, and the generals withered. Now, there are few good generals who can lead troops to fight tough battles, and they still have the attitude to posthumous title of "Wu" to Old Man Xiao?"

Wang Wei spoke with a sarcasm on his face.

"When you bring Li Li to me, I will ask him to count the military ranks, how many levels of stairs are there."

"Let him think about how much military merit he has to make in his life and how many times he has made to climb up."

"Then, his son, have to do it again!"

"Why is this happening? Because in Xiao's eyes, people like him who are not even considered cold people, and their descendants, from generation to generation, are all low-class people, and they are all grass that are trampled by the children of the aristocratic families!"

"Look, look at the Xiao family has been in the forty years since its establishment. How many good generals are there? Not many, because many generals are exhausted when they are walking the steps."

Wang Wei was a little excited as he spoke.

There are no poor men at the top, no nobles at the bottom, and they are officials and families. If a person comes from a slightly cold background, then even if he is talented, he will have a chance to become an official.

Wang Wei was dissatisfied with this and would never be convinced by those wastes who occupy a high position.

Why do those wasteful people, even though they have no talent, neither literary nor martial arts, rely on their good family background, easily become officials and live comfortably?

This was the case when the imperial court was in Luoyang, and later moved to Yecheng. It was still the same. The descendants of the noble families occupied high positions and had no choice but to eat, while many talented and poor people could only be officials.

Therefore, Wang Wei, who came from the cold clan, was dissatisfied. As long as he had the opportunity, he had to prove his ability and prove that he was no worse than the children of those aristocratic families.

No matter who his palace master is or what he wants to do, as long as he is willing to listen to him, he will give advice.

Wang Wei of the Southern Dynasty was already famous, so he wanted to wait until the city was broken and see these naturally noble people crawling in front of the princes and bowing with a flattering look on their faces.

And those noble ladies from noble families have to be slaves to warm up the bed for the princes and generals.

When Guo Yuanjian heard Wang Wei explain the military call system of Liang State, he roughly understood how the other party would persuade Li Li to surrender.

Li Li was born in a bad background, and he was so desperate that he probably wanted to make progress with his military achievements.

As long as Wang Wei makes the other party realize that this is just a dream, then the young man after waking up from the dream will surrender to reality.

In the Xiao family, who suppressed the cold military generals, no matter how many contributions were, they were just dogs who chewed their bones.

And in the Houwang, there are rewards for making merits. The greater the merits, the more rewards they will be, and you can be a wolf who eats meat.
