At the end of the Warring States period, he studied under Guiguzi, practiced the strategy of alliances and confederacies, established the Black Ice Platform, and helped Ying Zheng sweep across the ...
The students were all filled with righteous indignation and began to condemn this dissolute young man.
Lu Li was shocked. Fengxiao? This person is Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao.
Guo Jia, a brilliant strategist during the Three Kingdoms period, became Cao Cao's top advisor after the death of Xi Zhicai.
It can be said that Cao Cao relied on and trusted him just as much as Ying Zheng and Lu Li did back then.
After Guo Jia's death, Cao Cao was heartbroken and fainted several times.
This man also left a significant mark on history, but unfortunately he died young. Later generations always believed that if Guo Jia had not died, Cao Cao would not have lost the Battle of Red Cliffs.
Can history be changed?
"Guo Jia! How dare you look down on us like that?" the students shouted angrily.
Guo Jia sneered and said sarcastically, "You all only know how to play with words and show off your poetry and songs, but you don't understand military affairs or people's livelihood. You are truly useless scholars."
This guy is really arrogant, daring to belittle everyone present as worthless.
"Fengxiao, stop talking nonsense. How dare you slander us like this!" Chen Lin couldn't help but rebuke him.
"Hmph! I am telling the truth, can you refute it?" Guo Jia sneered.
Lu Li smiled. Although Guo Jia was arrogant, he certainly had the right to be.
His wisdom and strategy were unparalleled, and there was even a saying in later generations that "if Guo Jia had not died, Zhuge Liang would not have emerged."
Perhaps only Pang Tong, the Phoenix Chick, could rival his wisdom and strategy.
"I see you don't understand military strategy at all, let alone military warfare. You're just spouting empty talk about the classics of sages," Guo Jia said sarcastically, showing no regard for the people present.
This made many students' faces turn extremely gloomy, and they all started cursing loudly.
"This is outrageous! It's utterly disrespectful and shows no respect for elders."
"You arrogant brat, how dare you spout such nonsense in front of us?"
Seeing that the students were enraged, Lu Li quickly stepped forward to stop them, saying, "Everyone, please calm down."
As soon as he finished speaking, the students immediately fell silent.
"Fengxiao, since you understand military strategy, how about we do a simulation?" Lu Li said with a slight smile, wanting to test Guo Jia's abilities.
The students were stunned. Lu Li had actually volunteered to fight Guo Jia in battle formation?
Although they were very unhappy about being insulted by Guo Jia, they believed that Guo Jia was indeed exceptionally talented in military formations, and they were certain that Lu Li would be defeated.
Upon hearing this, Guo Jia's eyes lit up immediately, and he quickly asked, "Oh? You intend to compete with me in military strategy and tactics?"
“Exactly,” Lu Li replied calmly, showing no sign of nervousness.
"Great! How shall we compete?" Guo Jia rubbed his hands together excitedly.
He loved these kinds of competitions the most, especially those with superior wisdom.
"It's simple, just play chess!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately puzzled. Using chess to test military formations?
However, no one said anything, and instead waited for Lu Li's next move.
Then, Lu Li stretched out his right index and middle fingers and quickly flicked them, and streaks of sword energy began to carve on the stone table.
Lu Li's move stunned everyone; this person was actually a martial artist?
In a short while, a chessboard was completed.
"this……"
Guo Jia's eyes widened in disbelief; Lu Li was actually a martial arts master.
The students were all dumbfounded.
However, what amazed the students even more was that they had never seen this chessboard before, because it was not a Go board at all.
"Mr. Lu, what you are portraying is..." Xi Zhicai asked, puzzled.
Lu Li smiled and immediately said, "This is Chinese chess. I designed the chessboard in my spare time based on the Chu-Han Contention."
Xi Zhicai raised an eyebrow and looked at the center of the chessboard, where the four characters "Chu River and Han Border" were indeed displayed.
"I see! You are truly a genius, sir, to have even created your own chess style!"
Lu Li smiled, then flicked his fingers again, cutting a tree in half. In a moment, his sword energy carved out thirty-two chess pieces, which fell onto the chessboard.
"Wow...so amazing!" Even Sima Hui was stunned.
Could Lu Li really be an immortal? Although he knew that his ancestor Lu Li was extremely powerful, after all, he was a person from four hundred years ago who had survived to this day.
But he never expected that Lu Li's move was simply astonishing; it was something only an immortal could do.
Then the students gathered around, looking left and right, but they couldn't understand how to play this chess game either.
However, Xi Zhicai saw through some of the tricks and slowly said, "Look at the positions of these chess pieces. They are just like the formation of a battle formation. As long as they are arranged in this way, a complete army layout can be formed."
Lu Li nodded in satisfaction. Xi Zhicai was indeed exceptionally talented, having grasped the essence of his chess skills at a glance.
Upon closer inspection, the students discovered that it was indeed as Xi Zhicai had described.
"Indeed, a formidable military formation can be assembled, but how should this game be played?"
"Yes, we have no idea how to play," the students asked one after another.
That's understandable; they've never even touched a game of chess before, so how could they possibly understand it?
Xi Zhicai shook his head; he knew absolutely nothing about this either.
Lu Li smiled and said, "The rules of chess are actually very simple. Each move represents the function of a piece. As long as you remember what each piece is supposed to do, you can know how to play chess."
After saying that, Lu Li demonstrated it to them.
Those who are able to enter Yingchuan Academy are all talented. Lu Li only demonstrated it once and explained the rules, and everyone understood it almost immediately.
