Chapter 10 You are a commoner who has never been on the battlefield. How do you know about military affairs?
Ye Chi's words suddenly enlightened Fusu and other princes! !
They were full of admiration for Ye Chi's insights.
The First Emperor, who was outside the wall, was even more excited and admired Ye Chi's courage and talent!
Well said! Great!
The way of the saints that is admired by thousands of people... is indeed not worthy of being used in our Great Qin!!
The First Emperor wished he could applaud and cheer!
Ye Chi's words were too advanced, and he directly denied that the way of the saints had disadvantages! And he discarded it and did not use it! !
What a domineering and heroic spirit this is!!
The young masters were also extremely shocked. At the same time as they suddenly realized what was going on, they also felt extremely scared and nervous!
If such treasonous words were to spread throughout the world, who knows what kind of storm would it cause...
Fusu's heart was also filled with a thousand waves. His face was solemn. After thinking for a moment, he still had a glimmer of hope:
"Mr. Ye Chi, after all, the sacred learning has been passed down through the ages and is respected by the world. After all, it has gone through the test. Isn't it possible that there is nothing good about it?"
Ye Chi smiled slightly, turned around and glanced at the other young masters, and said loudly: "The reason why the sacred learning is highly respected is simply because it conforms to the needs of the rulers, and is used to imprison the people's thoughts and maintain social order."
"However, this kind of confinement and restraint is at the expense of personal freedom and development. How can such sacred learning be called true learning?"
"Furthermore, the so-called saints are just empty titles given by the world. They are not omnipotent and omniscient gods, but ordinary people with seven emotions and six desires, joys, anger, sorrows and happiness."
“Therefore, instead of blindly believing in the teachings of the saints, it is better to trust your own hands and wisdom. Only by relying on your own efforts and practice can you create a truly peaceful world!!”
As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was shocked!
Fusu and other princes looked at each other, feeling an inexplicable shock and confusion in their hearts!
They had never imagined that the sacred learning, which had always been regarded as the supreme, would be refuted by Ye Chi!
The First Emperor, who was outside the wall, was even more excited when he heard this.
He was in awe of Ye Chi's courage and insight, and couldn't help but secretly praise him in his heart: "This man is really a genius! He can actually say such shocking words!"
Ying Zheng always looked down upon those corrupt scholars and doctors, thinking that they were only good at arguing with others but had no idea how to govern a country.
Whenever the country encounters disasters and wars, they shrink back, remain silent, and behave like chickens!
But when the world reaches its peak of prosperity, they jump out and point fingers, complaining about nothing and being dissatisfied with nothing!
Ying Zheng hated these corrupt scholars very much! !
He stood outside the high wall, listening quietly to Ye Chi's profound speech, every word he said was like a gem, and every sentence touched his heart.
The joy in my heart is like a spring flowing, and I can’t help myself!!
He even wanted to stand up, look up to the sky and laugh loudly, shaking the trees with his voice, expressing his great pride!
His heart was filled with admiration and resonance for Ye Chi, and he also revealed his dissatisfaction and contempt for the doctors in the court.
"Ye Chi, you are truly my soulmate!" Ying Zheng murmured to himself, his eyes sparkling and his heart surging with emotions!
At this moment, inside the courtyard wall.
Fusu no longer pondered the way of the sage, as he couldn't figure it out anyway.
At this moment, he frowned slightly, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Then, he looked at Ye Chi and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Ye Chi, you once gave Tu Sui the Twelve Poisonous Strategies of Swallowing the Sky and the Thirty-Six Volumes of Marching, but Tu Sui is a general who has experienced hundreds of battles and has made great military achievements in destroying six countries. Even compared with generals like Meng Tian, he is not much inferior."
"Since you have never been on the battlefield, how can you teach Tu Sui the art of war? Isn't this just a fantasy?"
When the First Emperor heard this outside the wall, he was also curious!
He pricked up his ears and listened, wanting to find out what kind of ability this man, whom he praised as his soulmate, had to dare to teach a veteran general how to fight.
He thought to himself:
"Although Ye Chi is very intelligent, he has never been on the battlefield. Now he wants to teach a general like Tu Sui how to use troops. It's really a joke!"
In the courtyard, Ye Chi stood with his head held high, laughing so loudly that his voice shook the sky!
Everyone looked at each other in shock, not knowing what was going on.
Fusu and other princes looked at each other, their hearts full of doubts. Ye Chi looked at everyone with a sharp gaze and asked loudly: "Sir, do you know Wu Zixu?"
When these words were spoken, everyone was even more shocked.
Who doesn't know the name of Wu Zixu?
At that time, he urged King Fuchai of Wu to kill Gou Jian to eliminate future troubles, but the King of Wu was stubborn and did not listen to the advice, and he ended up dying and his country was destroyed. Only 3,000 soldiers of Yue could conquer Wu! !
Ye Chi continued, "Wu Zixu had great talent and the ambition to stabilize the country, but in the end, he failed because the King of Wu did not listen to him."
"Although Ye Chi is not talented today, I would like to compare myself to Wu Zixu and help the Qin Dynasty to stabilize the country and expand its territory!!"
These words came like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone!
The young masters were dumbfounded, their astonishment was beyond words.
They stared at Ye Chi in amazement, their eyes filled with awe and admiration.
I didn't expect Ye Chi would dare to compare himself to Wu Zixu. Such arrogance is really rare.
However, they also knew that Ye Chi was not a person who acted without a purpose.
His talent and wisdom have already been fully demonstrated in previous discussions!
However, everyone still felt a little dissatisfied in their hearts!!
They are royal nobles who have been taught by famous teachers since childhood and also claim to be experts in military strategy.
Now seeing Ye Chi's arrogant attitude, comparing him to Wu Zixu, and asserting that Tu Sui will be defeated, how can I tolerate it? !
I saw Young Master Gao striding out, his sleeves fluttering and his aura extraordinary.
He looked directly at Ye Chi, questioning in his tone, "Dr. Ye, what basis do you have to assert that General Tu Sui will be defeated?"
"Qin conquered the six kingdoms and unified the world. Our army is full of morale. Our soldiers are strong and our generals are brave. We will surely win this battle! How can you destroy our army's morale with just one word?"
Facing the question, Ye Chi's expression remained unchanged and he smiled indifferently, as if he had already expected this question.
He spoke slowly, his voice was soft but every word was like a pearl: "My lord, what you said is true. The strength of the Qin army is known to everyone in the world. However, arrogant soldiers will surely be defeated!!"
"Although the Qin army is brave today, if they are all like you, thinking that they will win this battle, then they will be defeated before they even go out!"
“Even though morale is high, it must be used in the right way, not blindly complacent.”
Young Master Jianglu was not to be outdone, so he stepped forward and asked, "Doctor Ye, you are just a commoner, you have never been on the battlefield, how do you know about military affairs?"
"General Tu Sui has fought hundreds of battles and has made great achievements. How could he return in defeat as you said?!"
Ye Chi shook his head slightly and sighed: "Young Master is wrong. Although I have never experienced the battlefield, the art of war is not only about fighting in battle formations."
"The Art of War says: If you know yourself and your enemy, you will never be in danger in a hundred battles! Although I am not talented, I have studied the Art of War and understand its principles."
"Although General Tu Sui is brave, if he does not know himself and the enemy and is blindly confident, he will inevitably be defeated!!"
The young masters were speechless after hearing what Ye Chi said. Although they were not convinced in their hearts, they also knew that what Ye Chi said was true.
For a moment, the courtyard fell into silence.
