"Ruo Zhong, you really want to compete with Ce 'er?”
Shouchun City, Sun Jian's camp, on the drill ground.
Sun Jian looked at Baili Ming worriedly.
Behind him, the generals had already retreated to the edge of the drill ground. When they heard that someone was going to compete, they surrounded him. The entire drill ground was very lively.
Standing in front of Sun Jian, Baili Ming couldn't help but laugh when he heard this."
"Don't worry, my lord. The so-called competition is just a theory examination. Moreover, it will stop when it's over. There's no need to worry.”
"I know that Young Master is proud by nature. Without this test, it would be hard to convince him.”
"Why don't we take this opportunity to resolve this matter so that we don't cause trouble in the future!”
"Sigh!"
When Sun Jian heard this, he sighed and said,"
"It's all my fault for not disciplining him. I'm sorry that Ruozhong found it strange for Ce 'er to be like this.”
"If that's the case, then Ruo Zhong can go!”
"Good!"
Baili Ming bade farewell to Sun Jian and walked toward the center of the drill ground.
Coincidentally, on the other side of the drill ground, a few younger brothers and sisters were talking to Sun Ce.
The young Sun Quan sighed with a mature expression,"
"Big Brother, you've gone too far!”
"Even Father thinks so highly of Mister Baili. You won't get anything out of it regardless of whether you win or lose!”
When Sun Ce heard this, he snorted coldly and said,"
"Second Brother, what are you saying? A real man should be straightforward when he does things. He must do what he says and he must do what he does. If everything is discussed in terms of utility and covered up, then what kind of man is he?”
"Big Brother is right!"
As soon as Sun Ce finished speaking, the porcelain doll-like Lolita Xiangxiang Xiang ran over and said,
"What's so good about that mister? He's gentle and weak. He can't even compare to our eldest brother!”
"Why should we call him Sir?”
With that, she hugged Sun Ce's hand and encouraged him with her eyes wide open,
"Big brother must win, Ren 'er will cheer you up!”
"Good sister!"
Seeing this, Sun Ce rubbed Sun Shangxiang's head and smiled warmly,"
"As expected of Big Brother who dotes on you so much!"
As he spoke, his smile faded and he gently pushed Sun Shangxiang away.
"Let's not talk about it first. I'm going!"
After saying that, he walked to the drill ground with a serious expression.
Unexpectedly, Zu Mao had already walked out slowly before he even got on the stage. He said with a worried expression,
"Ce 'er, do you really want to compete with the military counselor?”
"It's not too late to go back on your word now!"
Seeing this, Sun Ce grinned and said,
"Uncle Darong, you still don't know me? When have you ever gone back on your word?"
"Sigh!"
Hearing this, Zu Mao sighed,
"Forget it. Since you want to compete, then let's compete. However, you have to be careful. Don't…"
Just as he said this, Sun Ce said confidently,"
"Uncle Darong, don't worry. There's no martial arts competition this time, so we can't hurt him!”
However, just as he finished speaking, Zu Mao's face became more and more worried,"
"I'm worried because there's no competition. If there's a competition, you still have a chance. If there's no competition, if you lose, don't be discouraged!”
"You're still young. It's a good thing to lose a few times!”
"Do your best. I have to try!"
As he spoke, he patted Sun Ce's shoulder solemnly and left with his hands behind his back. As he walked, he kept muttering,
"Newborn calves are really not afraid of tigers!”
" If you have nothing to do, why did you provoke him?!"
"I hope the counselor will be gentler!"
Sun Ce was left alone in the same spot with a dumbfounded expression.
Zu Mao mumbled as he walked towards the generals.
Other people might not know Baili Ming's true abilities, but how could Zu Mao not know?
That was a freak!
He did not know all the strategies and tactics of the army.
For example, the sword technique that was usually not revealed, when he happened to see it that day, he was shocked.
In addition, his horsemanship was also superb. If he followed the Six Arts of a Gentleman as mentioned by the military counselor, then his archery skills must also be extremely strong.
In that case, what other flaws could there be?
Unless Sun Ce wanted to fight Baili Ming one-on-one, he really couldn't think of any reason for Baili Ming to lose!
However, this time, they were not going to fight one-on-one. Sun Ce's only chance was gone.
With this thought, he returned to the army of generals.
Upon seeing him return, Dian Wei said,"
"Did he?"
When the generals heard this, they looked towards Zu Mao.
When Zu Mao saw this, he smiled bitterly and said,
"I did, but I don't know if I believe it or not!”
"Just say it. I've put in a lot of effort!”
As Dian Wei spoke, he looked at Sun Ce in the distance and sighed.
This silly child, of all people, you bet with Ruo Zhong!
Wouldn't that be looking for a loss?
If his brother didn't have a 100% chance of winning, he wouldn't have bet so easily!
This time, it must be the same. He just didn't know how Baili Ming would torture Sun Ce.
Although this brother of his was smiling all day, he was actually wilting in his heart!
Sun Ce had fallen into his hands, so how could he have a good life?
Thinking of this, he looked at Sun Ce with even more pity.
Similar to Dianwei Zumao, other than Qiao Rui, the rest of the generals looked at the battlefield worriedly.
However, the person he was worried about was not Baili Ming, but Sun Ce.
Sun Ce felt these gazes, and his slightly immature and handsome face immediately revealed a look of anger.
What was going on?
Although he, Sun Ce, didn't dare to say that he was a natural genius, he wasn't a proud son of heaven!
From the time he started learning martial arts until now, he knew nothing about martial arts, military tactics, and military strategies.
Even if he didn't dare to say that it was rare in the world, it was also difficult to meet an opponent.
But what were these people doing?
Pity? Worried? Mocking?
This was intolerable!
He immediately turned his gaze to Baili Ming and said in a deep voice,
"Let's begin. What do you want to compete in? As long as it's not poetry, you can say it!”
Facing such a serious Sun Ce, Baili Ming smiled and said,"
"There's no need for that. If I set the questions and win, I'm afraid you won't be convinced!”
"This time, you can decide the topic!"
Taunt, taunt again!
Sun Ce only felt that he had been greatly insulted, but the more Baili Ming acted like this, the more he didn't know what to say.
In that case, even if he won, it would be an unfair victory.
In his rage, he looked at Baili Ming coldly and said,"
"Don't say such arrogant words. I, Sun Ce, never go back on my words. If I lose, so be it.”
"Just set the topic!"
"If I say no, I won't be called Sun Bofu!”
But after he said that, Baili Ming shook his head slightly and said,"
"How can you unify the army if you're so easily angered?”
"Forget it. Since you are familiar with military strategy, I will ask you three questions. I will ask you and you will answer. If you can answer one of them, I will lose.”
As soon as he said this, the entire place was instantly in an uproar.
If he could answer one of the three questions, he would lose?
What a concession!
It was extremely difficult for Baili Ming to win, but it was extremely easy for Sun Ce to win!
However, Sun Ce once again felt humiliated. He immediately frowned and said,
"If you say three, I can answer three, but you can't ask questions that I can't answer.”
"Of course I can answer!"
Baili Ming pondered for a while and then said,"
"Let's do it this way. The first question is, if our army has 30,000 dan of grain and is preparing to send 30,000 dan of grain to attack a city in the distance, it will take an estimated 20 days. Logically speaking, a foot soldier needs 3 jin of grain a day, and a cavalry and horse needs 18 jin of grain a day.”
"Then can you tell me how many infantry and cavalry our army will send out?”
Hearing this, everyone present was shocked.
He had thought that the military counselor would ask some profound questions, but he did not expect it to be such a question.
How many troops to send?
Wasn't this a free question?
Did the military counselor want Sun Ce to win first?
When Sun Ce heard this, he frowned and said,
"What do you mean by this? Since it's a military strategy, why do you have to ask such a question? I don't care to answer it, so that you won't be noisy again if you lose!”
"Oh? Is that so?"
Hearing this, Baili Ming said leisurely,
"Young General, just answer it first. If I can answer it, it will be my loss. I am also willing to admit defeat.”
When the generals heard this, they were all stunned. Wasn't the military counselor giving way?
Sun Ce looked at Baili Ming and said coldly,"
"You really want me to answer this question?"
"Of course!"
Baili Ming nodded again.
"Good! Just you wait!"
Looking at Baili Ming's smug expression, Sun Ce felt that he was being looked down upon even more, and he hurriedly calculated in his heart.
As he calculated, he thought to himself, You're courting death, don't blame me for being merciless!
As he thought of this, the corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile.
However, the next second, as he calculated, a hint of hesitation suddenly appeared on his originally confident face.
After a while, the dilemma slowly turned into a frown.
When the spectators saw Sun Ce's appearance, they were instantly puzzled.
What was wrong with the young general?
Why aren't you talking?
Answer the question!
Sun Jian looked at his son and couldn't help but click his tongue.
Wasn't his son usually extremely intelligent?
Why was it like this today?
When Sun Quan and his younger siblings saw this, they were also extremely anxious.
Sun Shangxiang looked at her brother who was frowning and stomped her feet anxiously.
"What's wrong with Brother? Why hasn't he thought of it yet?”
In his anxiety, he looked at Baili Ming angrily and said through gritted teeth,
"This big bad guy, what kind of questions did he set to make my brother so difficult!”
However, at this moment, Sun Ce, who had not raised his head for a long time, finally raised his head. His forehead was covered in sweat as he shook his head unwillingly and said,
"I can't answer this question!"
Upon hearing this, there was an uproar.
What was going on?
Sun Ce couldn't answer the first question?
How could this be possible!
For a moment, the crowd was in a heated discussion.
Hearing the voices around him, Sun Ce was a little unwilling.
But he really couldn't answer this question!
It sounded simple, but after careful calculation, one would know that 30,000 dan of grain was 3.6 million jin. If they were to divide it carefully into 20 days and distribute it to the soldiers, they would have to calculate how many soldiers they would have to send out.
Not to mention him calculating with his heart, even if he used a counting rod, he would probably need to calculate for a day and a night!
How could he possibly answer this question!
Looking at Sun Ce's unwilling expression, Baili Ming couldn't help but smile. It was as he had expected that Sun Ce wouldn't be able to answer this question.
This question looked like a soldier calculation, but it was actually a set of two-dimensional linear equations that needed to be formulated.
If a middle school student were to do the math, he would definitely be able to figure it out in minutes.
But for Sun Ce, it was a little difficult!
However, seeing Sun Ce admit defeat, he did not say anything more and continued,
"Then the second question, the Book of Han says that there are four forces in a military strategist, namely military tactics, military Yin and Yang, military situation, and military skills.”
"Among them, Sun Tzu and Wu Zi are the first to be the military strategists. In the war, Wei Liao should be the first to attack the enemy, and in the war between Yin and Yang, Sun Bin should be the first to attack the enemy.”
"Then do you know who is the first in this military skill? What is the use of this power?"
"This... I..."
Hearing this question, Sun Ce frowned again.
Everyone present was also shocked.
This was the first time they had heard of the four forces of the militarists!
However, Han Shu was written long ago, so the general should know about these four forces!
Everyone was still thinking when Sun Ce lowered his head and said,"
"I don't know either!"
"Then the third question!"
Seeing this, Baili Ming smiled again and said,"
"Since you claim to be well-versed in the art of war, let me ask you something in Sun Tzu: All these five things are known to all generals. Those who know them will win, and those who do not know them will not win.”
"These five are the general, the heaven and earth, the law, the soldiers, and the reward and punishment.”
"If two armies fight, these five are evenly matched, but one of them can win.”
As he spoke, he smiled at Sun Ce and said,"
"If you still can't answer the last question, you will lose the first round!”
With that, he put his hands behind his back and waited for the answer.
When Sun Ce heard this, he wanted to refute, but when he heard this question, he lowered his head again.
In everyone's eyes, one person had his head held high while the other had his head lowered. The contrast was extremely obvious.
Finally, after a while, Sun Ce raised his head with a dejected expression and said,"
"I don't know about this question either…"
His words seemed to be filled with unwillingness.
However, as soon as he said this, the scene was once again in an uproar.
Three questions, three noes!
This was a direct suppression!
