Chapter 1692 immediate and long-term

Sun Ce took it all together. The article was very long, and it was heavy in his hand. The handwriting at the beginning of the title was neat, but it was not dull. It had a handsome look, which made it pleasing to the eye.

Sun Ce looked up at Zhong Changtong. "Do you want to print your articles to the world?"

Zhong Changtong blinked and nodded. "I think, otherwise I won't show it to the general."

Sun Ce laughed "Puchi" and Zhong Changtong was extremely smart, but he was a little unsociable. There were few people who could talk to him. Sometimes he didn't say a word for a long time, sometimes he talked endlessly, and he was even a little rude. He was called a crazy student. It was better to meet him than to be famous, and he was indeed well-known. However, he was so crazy that he had capital. In terms of high knowledge, there were actually not many people who had dozens of people in the military plan to surpass him.

"Did you see the Dian Duwei over there?" Sun Ce pointed his hand. A tiger soldier was on duty every ten steps along the river. Dian Wei took several tiger soldiers back and forth to patrol, one to check if there were any abnormalities, and the other to supervise the tiger soldiers to cheer up and not be lazy. Dian Wei is now walking east, about two hundred steps away from them, and more than one hundred steps away from the end of the post.

"See it."

"If you can catch up with him before he turns around, I will invest in printing these articles for you."

Zhong Changtong frowned, puzzled. "General, does this... matter?"

"It doesn't matter if it's up to you, I have the final say. If you don't want to print, just be quicker if you want to print. I don't have much time left for you."

Zhong Changtong glanced at Sun Ce again, which seemed to be an idiot. However, he still gritted his teeth, lifted up the hem of his clothes, and rushed towards Dian Wei with great strides. After walking for about ten steps, he found that he could not catch up. So he simply tucked the hem of his clothes in his belt and spread his arms to run. However, his physical fitness was too poor. He had only been running for about thirty steps, and his speed dropped significantly. After a hundred steps, his footsteps were already a little staggering. He barely ran fifty steps, and his speed was no longer as fast as Dian Wei, but Dian Wei was only twenty or thirty steps away from the finish line.

In desperation, Zhong Changtong shouted: "Person Dian Du stayed!"

Dian Wei turned his head when he heard the sound. Seeing Zhong Changtong calling him, he quickly turned around to meet him. Zhong Changtong was so angry that he stamped his feet, ignored Dian Wei, drooped his head, turned around and left. Dian Wei was inexplicably looking at Sun Ce, and Sun Ce waved from afar, signaling Dian Wei to continue. Although Dian Wei was confused, he turned around to patrol.

Zhong Changtong returned to Sun Ce, his face flushed and panting like a cow. Sun Ce asked someone to bring a couch to sit down and rest. When he read the article, he felt more and more interesting. He couldn't help but smile a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Zhong Changtong from time to time. Since Zhong Changtong proposed to print the "Qianfu Lun" last time, and later he saw him debate with Xun Yue, he began to pay silence to pay attention to Zhong Changtong. However, Zhong Changtong is too young and is only sixteen years old this year, so he has never expressed his attention to it to avoid pulling the seedlings and promoting growth.

As a fan of Qin and Han history, he could not have known Zhong Changtong. Zhong Changtong was a political and theoretical scholar who was the master of the Mo years of the Eastern Han Dynasty. While inheriting the Han Dynasty scholars' attention to politics, he also advocated people-oriented and personal souls, which opened up the mysterious style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Some even said that he was the founder of Chinese gardening theory, and Xie Lingyun was deeply inspired by him.

However, the article in his hand cannot see a little mysterious wind, but it has a sense of materialism. It not only mentions Zhang Heng's theory, Yan Qing's theory of tide, and Donghai Guantao. In addition to recording the observed phenomena, he is also trying to guess the truth and put forward a series of ideas. One of the most surprising points of Sun Ce is that the stars in the sky may also be the moon, but they are just farther from the earth.

Sun Ce read it roughly, gently placed the manuscript on the desk in front of him, raised his eyelids, and looked at Zhong Changtong.

"Your article is the same as your body."

Zhong Changtong's face twitched for a moment, and then he showed disdain again. Sun Ce could see clearly, but he remained silent, and continued: "The future is bright, but it is really hard to say how far you can go."

Zhong Changtong bowed unwillingly. "What is the shortcomings of my article? Please give me advice."

"There are many questions, so I'll just say something." Sun Ce smiled: "You said, can the moon shine by itself?"

Zhong Changtong blinked his eyes, pondered for a long time, and suddenly clapped his hands. "The general is right. The moon itself does not shine. It is indeed not appropriate to use the moon to compare stars. But in this case, is it... Could it be..." Zhong Changtong's face changed a few times, and his eyes widened. "Is it the same as the sun?"

"I don't know, but I think that since the stars are shining, they are naturally closer to the sun. As for whether they are, there is more evidence." Sun Ce's manuscript on the case. "Axiom, I often tell you that as a scholar, you not only sit and discuss the truth, but also be able to rise and act. You like to say it, and you are very capable, but can you do it? You are only sixteen years old and your body is so weak. How can you get it? Articles need to be done, but the body must also pay attention to exercise. It is not enough to read thousands of books in the study. You must also be able to travel thousands of miles, debate with the wise men in the world, learn from their strengths and weaknesses, and become a one-sided statement."

Zhong Changtong touched his head awkwardly. He was a smart man and already understood what Sun Ce meant to ask him to chase Dian Wei. "Thank you, General, I will pay attention in the future."

"Don't be in the Military Strategy Office, those things are not suitable for you." Sun Ce thought for a while and decided to adjust his position for Zhong Changtong. Although the Military Strategy Office did not directly participate in the case of a lawsuit, the affairs were complicated and had to be rotated in wartime. Zhong Changtong was not suitable for this position. "You should be a document by my side first, and you don't have to worry about anything. First organize the "Qianfu Lun" for your consultation, study and exercise when you have time. Starting today, jog around this sandbank once a day, and strive to run down in one breath within two months."

Zhong Changtong was overjoyed and bowed to the seat. "Thank you, General."

"Go now and make up for the morning." Sun Ce picked up the document and stopped looking at Zhong Changtong. Zhong Changtong didn't mind, and started jogging happily around the sandbank. His physical fitness was really good. Even if he was jogging, he had to stop and rest for a while at a hundred steps. However, he had hope and refused to give up. He walked for a while, ran for a while, and ran farther and farther.

Guo Jia came over and looked at Zhong Changtong who was running hard. "General, is he causing trouble again?"

"No, it's just that he is in poor health and is forced to exercise." Sun Ce signaled Guo Jia to take his seat and explained the adjustment of Zhong Changzheng's position. Guo Jia agreed immediately. Zhong Changzheng was dispensable in the military planning office. He had long wanted to transfer Zhong Changzheng away, but he didn't expect a good place. Now that Sun Ce has an arrangement, he of course couldn't ask for it.

Sun Ce put down his manuscript and scratched his eyebrows. "Wangxiao, what are your plans for Youzhou?"

Guo Jia sat down, closed his eyes comfortably, raised his head, leaned on the pedestal table, and stretched his legs. "I really want to bask in the sun like this every day."

"Then you build a house here."

"Haha, I don't dare." Guo Jia laughed twice and opened his eyes. "This is the place where Sun's family's dragon rises. It will become a forbidden garden in the future. How can I build a house here? When the general becomes His Majesty, I can just accompany him to visit his hometown."

"As long as you were still alive at that time, I will definitely take you with you."

"I thank Your Majesty first." Guo Jia sat up and bowed seriously. Sun Ce looked at him and was very happy when he watched him play tricks. Guo Jia was in such a good mood, which means he was ready. Guo Jia lay back and said casually: "General, do you think Liu Bei can occupy Youzhou?"

Sun Ce shook his head. He was also thinking about this question these two days. Can Liu Bei occupy Youzhou? I'm afraid it's not that easy. The key to controlling a place is not ordinary people, but in aristocratic families. He went home to visit relatives these two days, and saw the envy, jealousy and hatred behind the flattery of the villagers, and appreciated how complicated it is. He has controlled the five states, and even the court has to bow his head temporarily. Why should Liu Bei get the recognition of the Youzhou family?

That's right, Youzhou is not the Central Plains. The strength of the aristocratic families is limited and they may not be able to compete with Liu Bei. But at the same time, it should be seen that Liu Bei's strength is also very limited. Apart from Guan, Zhang, Zhao and others, there is almost no support from the village party around him. Moreover, his county fell into the hands of Yuan Tan. In terms of the attraction to the aristocratic families and the powerful, Yuan Tan is much stronger than him. It is estimated that it won't take long for the aristocratic families, the powerful families in Zhuo County will choose Yuan Tan and abandon Liu Bei as if they are ill. Even if the Yuyang he controlled, those aristocratic families may not surrender to him, but because of his force, no one dared to stand up.

Although it cannot be said that Liu Bei will not succeed, his chances of success are obviously not high, and there are many difficulties to overcome. One of the things is that he has not found a truly useful strategist so far. Without a real strategist, he can only bump into like a headless fly and cannot find the target.

In contrast, Yuan Tan's chance of controlling Youzhou was even greater. He had the prestige and ability to rule the aristocratic family, and was backed by the money and grain of Jizhou. In addition, Yuan Shao's marriage with the Hu people on the grasslands was even more likely to seize Youzhou and gain support in Youzhou.

"If I were Liu Bei's counselor, I would advise him to cooperate with Zhang Ze to drive Yuan Tan out of Youzhou and defend the Yishui line." Guo Jia said: "Youzhou has little farmland, and the best farmland is in Zhuo County, Guangyang and Yuyang, especially Zhuo County. Zhuo County fell into Yuan Tan's hands, and the lifeline of Youzhou was equivalent to being controlled by Yuan Tan. He could use Zhuo County's money and grain to support soldiers and reduce the suffering of transportation. Even if Liu Bei controlled Guangyang and Yuyang counties, the money and grain obtained could not support too many people and was destined to be controlled by others. If he cooperated with Zhang Ze, he would take back Zhuo County while Yuan Tan was not yet firm in his foothold. From a small point of view, he could avenge Gongsun Zan and gain the loyalty of Gongsun Zan's old subordinates. From a big point of view, he could prove that he had the strength to protect Youzhou."

Guo Jia sat up, poured a cup of hot tea, held it in his hand, took a sip, and tasted it with great taste. "But he only saw the real benefit in front of him, and gave up a great opportunity, which was really short-sighted."
