"Baby!"
"Baby!"
"It's already noon, why don't you get up and practice martial arts?"
In Han Yichen's room in the west wing of the backyard, Hua Qingcheng, who had just fallen asleep, suddenly felt it was very noisy.
Mulan Jin, who had a good night's sleep in the pigpen of the Hua family's old house, was now energetically directing Yu Xiaotian to do horse stance in the front yard. If Yu Xiaotian hadn't held him back, he would have rushed to the backyard to wake Hua Qingcheng.
Mulanjin didn't know why, but she felt that getting up early to urge her granddaughter to practice martial arts was something she did every day. But it was just that this annoying granddaughter's husband always stopped her from disciplining her granddaughter.
"Grandpa, you'd better be quiet! My wife hates being disturbed while she's sleeping. If she gets angry, you might be kicked out."
"She dares? How can a granddaughter kick her grandfather out of the house? Humph!"
Yu Xiaotian felt that he couldn't communicate with this old man, and he felt helpless. Now he had been forced to stand in the yard for half an hour, his legs still shaking.
"Stand still!"
Seeing Yu Xiaotian's trembling legs, Mulan Jin couldn't help but shout, frightening Yu Xiaotian so much that he immediately readjusted his posture. He didn't know why, but the old man spoke with such a majestic and authoritative voice that he didn't dare to disobey his orders.
"Grandpa, I really have to go cook. Otherwise, when my wife gets up and my elder and second brothers come back from the vegetable garden, there will be no food to eat."
Yu Xiaotian begged the old man with his numb legs.
Mulanjin looked at Yu Xiaotian, whose legs were weak, and the sheep, cat, and chicken beside him, and thought of her granddaughter's icy face, so she kindly let Yu Xiaotian go to cook. Yu Xiaotian, as if he had been pardoned, hurriedly lifted his numb and painful legs and stumbled back to the kitchen. He would rather do more work than continue to stand in the yard like a pillar.
After Yu Xiaotian left, Mulan Jin set her sights on the sheep, cat, and chicken. At 4:00 AM, when Mu Lige and Situ Ye had finished harvesting the vegetables for the restaurant, they returned to the Hua family's courtyard and saw this scene:
Mulanjin, her silver hair tied up in a bun, was urging a sheep to put its front hooves on the wall, and a rooster to stand on one leg. As for the little white tiger, it had already climbed up a tree. After Mulanjin finished urging the sheep to get into position, she ran back to the tree to scold it.
Mu Lige twitched the corner of his mouth slightly. He didn't know where his little wife got the little white tiger from. His fourth brother had always raised it like a cat. Now it was even worse off. It had to be trained as a soldier.
"'Warfare is about courage. A strong first burst of energy; a second weakens; a third exhausts it.' More training in peacetime means less bloodshed in battle. If you train half-heartedly like this, you'll regret it when you finally hit the battlefield!"
The first time is strong, the second time is weak, and the third time is exhausted?
Although the old man in front of him was crazy, his words were not completely nonsense. Mu Lige had an inexplicable feeling that this person's past identity might not be simple.
"Second brother, you've been tired for a while. Go to the main room and drink some water and rest for a while. By the way, put the small machete you used to cut vegetables back to the utility room."
"Okay, big brother!"
Situ Ye obediently followed the doctor's instructions.
"Grandpa, what are you busy with?"
Mu Lige stood beside Mulan Jin and looked at Xiaobai who was sleeping leisurely in the tree with him.
"Humph! This soldier actually dared to slack off. I'll punish him with a military stick soon!"
Seeing that Mulan Jin was really about to pick up a stick and poke the little tiger, Mu Lige quickly stopped him. Could this old man really be addicted to this?
"noob!"
With Mu Lige's call, the little white tiger on the tree quickly slipped down from the trunk and jumped into his arms in a few seconds.
The mythical white tiger only worships the strong, and it is close to Yu Xiaotian because Yu Xiaotian is its "milk daddy." Although this old man is also very powerful, he is too long-winded. It still prefers its master's doctor.
"If the enemy sends out three generals of varying strengths to fight against our three generals of slightly inferior strengths, how can we win?"
Hearing Sun Xifu's words, Mulan Jin subconsciously touched her chin, but felt nothing. After a moment of hesitation, she said:
"So, we can use our lower generals to fight against the enemy's upper generals, our upper generals to fight against the enemy's middle generals, and our middle generals to fight against the enemy's lower generals."
Mu Lige seemed to be lost in thought after hearing this.
"Grandpa, if the enemy is defeated and our army is short of manpower, should we pursue them or not?"
"Don't push a desperate enemy; besiege an army that has been attacked by a horde of enemies. If we are encircling an enemy, even if we are certain of victory, we must leave a gap. Otherwise, if the enemy fights desperately, it will only lead to unnecessary casualties."
Mu Lanjin's words shocked Mu Lige deeply, and some of his doubts were cleared up because of his words. Although the old man's memory was a bit confused, some things were probably deeply ingrained in his heart and would not disappear easily.
"Grandpa, what do you think about the strategy of using troops?"
Mu Lige wasn't testing him, but rather sincerely seeking advice. Having been groomed as the crown prince since childhood, Su Mulige was naturally intelligent. Even during the six years he'd been hidden in Huaqiao Village, he had never stopped learning and striving for progress. However, he had been young when he left the palace, and lacked a mentor in some areas. While the old man before him might be a little unclear, his words held some merit.
"In the art of warfare, attacking the heart is better than attacking the city; psychological warfare is better than physical warfare."
Mulan Jin blurted out the answer immediately, and even he himself didn't understand why.
