    The fair-skinned man in fine clothes coughed and said, "General Xin's formation is rigorous and he is careful in everything. He is truly impeccable."

    The man wearing a Confucian shirt said: "In the battle of Changping, the Zhao army was at a disadvantage. The army was low in food and grass. We decided to fight quickly. The Qin army fought steadily and was cautious. If we spend a period of time with the Zhao army, the Zhao army will inevitably become more powerful."  It is unsustainable and defeat is inevitable. It is not something that Zhao Kuo can change. As long as the Qin army does not greedy for merit and advance rashly, even if you were replaced today, Mr. Wang Yan, you would not be able to escape the fate of defeat."

    "But General Bai Qi back then was not as careful as General Xin today. You have been unable to retreat. No matter how I lured the enemy, you remained unmoved."

    The man in Confucian shirt said: "How can I compare to the Qin army Bai Qi? When marching and fighting, greed for merit and rash advancement is the most taboo thing. As long as you can win, what's the harm in giving others a few jokes about being timid and afraid of death?"

    The man in the Chinese uniform threw a few chess pieces in his hand to the sand table and said, "Then it would be meaningless for you and me to re-introduce the Changping Battle today."

    The man in Confucian shirt smiled and replied: "It's just to pass the time when I'm bored. I didn't lose, and neither did you, Mr. Wang Yan. Isn't that good?"

    The man in Chinese attire, who was called Mr. Wang Yan, said: "That's true, but I was really impressed by General Xin's ability to arrange troops in formation today. General Xin used thousands of people to defeat the Seven Buddhas and Six Sevens in Hangzhou City."  With tens of thousands of people, we captured Fang La, the leader of the thief, and became famous all over the world. It is truly a blessing to meet General Xin today."

    When Fang Jinshi heard what Mr. Wang Yan said, he immediately understood the identity of General Xin. Han Shizhong had told him before that he had captured Jiangnan La, but Xin Xingzong, the Shangfeng Zhongzhou defense commander, had taken the credit. So this  General Xin must be Xin Xingzong.

    General Xin said with a smile: "It's hard to live up to your reputation and make Mr. Wang laugh."

    Wanyan Wushu stepped forward and said, "General Xin is a man of great talent, but I heard that you have been working as a defense officer for several years and have never been promoted. I don't know why."

    General Xin smiled bitterly and said: "No one in the court has a hard time becoming an official. I offended Lieutenant Gao because of something, so it will be difficult for me to get promoted."

    Wanyan Wushu said: "General Xin is so talented, but he can only serve as a small defense envoy. He is really overqualified and underused. I wonder if General Xin can come and have tea in private some other time?"

    General Xin said with great joy: "The official Wang has invited me, so I should accompany you."

    Wanyan Wushu nodded and moved Fang Jinshi behind him in front of him: "This is my new friend, Mr. Fang Jinshi, please get to know each other."

    He turned to the other side and said to the stone: "This is General Xin Xingzong Xin, the defense envoy of Zhongzhou. He is very famous."

    Fang Jinshi bowed his hands to Xin Xingzong and said, "I have met General Xin."

    Xin Xingzong looked at him and said, "I wonder where Mr. Fang works?"

    Fang Jinshi smiled and said: "I am just a commoner merchant, with no official title or rank."

    Wanyan Wushu said from the side: "Didn't Young Master Fang just be named the Deputy Envoy of Suzhou-Hangzhou Yingfeng Bureau? How can he be without official title?"

    It turned out that Wanyan Wushu also knew about it, so Fang Jinshi had no choice but to say in embarrassment: "Now there are rumors that the Suhang Yingfeng Bureau is going to be abolished. My position as deputy envoy is just a false post. I am just a person who receives the salary of the imperial court. What does it matter?  Where is the official position?"

    Wanyan Wushu said: "That Mr. Fang is really overqualified. I have nothing to do today. How about you play a game with Mr. Wang Yan for fun?"

    Fang Jinshi quickly said: "I don't know how to do this. Mr. Wang, please don't let me make a fool of myself in public."

    Wanyan Wushu held his shoulders and pulled him to the sand table: "It's just a casual play, don't take it too seriously."

    Fang Jinshi said: "I know how to keep accounts. These arranging troops are all done by generals. How can I do it?"

    Wang Yan on the opposite side looked at him and said: "I heard from others that you once dug up river embankments and flooded the Jin soldiers under the city of Yunnei Prefecture with less than a thousand troops, causing the Jin soldiers to lose tens of thousands of people. Then you fought with the Liao soldiers.  The siege of Yunnei Prefecture was solved by joining forces inside and outside. I once went to the city of Yunnei Prefecture and saw the terrain of the river in person, and I admire your strategy very much."

    Others knew everything about his past. Fang Jinshi took a good look at Wang Yan across from him. He didn't look like much, but he always felt that Wang Yan gave him an unfathomable sense of fear. This feeling even  It was even stronger than what Wanyan Wushu had given him. Staring at this person was as frightening as an eagle watching a rabbit.

    Fang Jinshi was determined to pretend to be confused to the end. He laughed twice to encourage himself, and then said: "Mr. Wang Yan may have misunderstood what others said. Yes, I have been to Yunnei Prefecture City, but at that time I was in Wanyan Digu  In the general's tent, he just watched the Jin soldiers besieging the city of Yunnei Prefecture. What?I've never heard of the Jin soldiers being flooded by the embankment, and I don't know how it happened, but someone just spread the word and put it on my head.  "

    Wang Yan smiled and said, "Really? I heard that a Song general surnamed Fang led his people to seize Roufu County at the critical moment of the Liao-Jin confrontation. I am extremely impressed by this courage and determination alone.  In fact, it is important to lead the army in battle and prepare troops, but compared to judging the situation and making decisive decisions, seizing opportunities without misjudgment, that is the difference between a general and a commander."

    His words offended Xin Xingzong. He turned his head and looked at Fang Jinshi. There seemed to be doubt in his eyes. Fang Jinshi said: "There are so many people named Fang in the world. I am just a small businessman doing business. How can I be so talented and handsome?"  , those are things that I never dare to think about in my life, Mr. Wang misunderstood."

    Seeing that he didn¡¯t recognize it, Wang Yan said, ¡°Maybe I really heard someone¡¯s words by mistake.¡±

    Fang Jinshi said to Wanyan Wushu: "Master Wang, didn't you say you want to listen to Miss Cui's lyrics and play the piano? When will you start?"

    Wanyan Wushu said: "We can start right away. Today, Miss Cui will sing on the stage outside and then play the piano in the lobby. Mr. Fang, don't miss it."

    Fang Jinshi said: "I came here today just to listen to Miss Cui playing the piano and singing lyrics. Since it's about to start, I'll go outside and grab a good seat first."

    Wanyan Wushu said: "Brothers, please excuse me, I will have someone lead you to the front row to listen."

    Fang Jinshi saluted him to express his gratitude and walked downstairs. Wanyan Wushu saw him leaving and asked Wang Yan, "What do you think of him?"

    Wang Yan said: "People should not be judged by their appearance. If the person you find is good, then his talent will be right."

    Wanyan Wushu said: "I wanted him to give it a try, but I didn't know he was actually clumsy."

    Wang Yan said: "The battlefield is changing rapidly, and even a small improper decision may turn victory into defeat. How can talent be seen just by talking about it in the sand? Everyone can read the military books, tactics, and formations.  However, having an overview of the overall situation and strategizing is beyond the capabilities of ordinary people. I don¡¯t value him for overwhelming the enemy, but I think it is commendable that he was able to find every opportunity to occupy Roufu County.¡±

    Xin Xingzong was not happy when he heard this. He came over and said, "Mr. Wang, I have something else to do, so I will leave now."

    Wanyan Wushu said: "General Xin, there is no need to rush back. I have something to discuss with General Xin in the evening. If General Xin really can't wait, then we can wait another day."

    Xin Xingzong hesitated again and again, and finally said: "ThenI'll sit downstairs and wait for the official Wang to be free." After saying that, he also went downstairs.

    Wanyan Wushu watched him go downstairs and asked Wang Yan, "What do you think of this man?"

    Wang Yandao: "He is a talented general, but he can't be used in a big way. In the battle of Baigou in Song and Liao Dynasties, he had the advantage but made consecutive defeats. In the end, he was defeated. This is the reason why he was not reused or promoted."

    Xin Xingzong had already gone downstairs, but he wanted to say a few more words to Wanyan Wushu, so he turned back. When he heard Wang Yan's comments about him at the corner, he felt angry and stopped coming out to talk to Wanyan Wushu.  Yan Wushu said something, turned around and went downstairs again.

    Fang Jinshi walked downstairs, thinking about Wang Yan's words. With Wanyan Wushu's attitude towards him, this Wang Yan must also be a big shot in the Jin Kingdom, but his name is indeed very unfamiliar, and it is probably a pseudonym.  , he was thinking about something in his mind. When he walked around the corner, a person from the opposite side came towards him. When the two sides crossed shoulders, the person bumped into his shoulder. Fang Jinshi held his shoulder in pain and looked up. It turned out that he had hit him.  His is that Dong Zhongsun.

    As soon as Fang Jinshi frowned, Dong Zhongsun immediately lowered his head and saluted him and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Fang. I don't have a sharp eye when I'm walking around. I hope you can forgive me."

    Fang Jinshi looked at him: "It's no big deal. Commander Dong doesn't want to gamble anymore?"

    Dong Zhongsun said: "I'm not lucky. I lost a lot, so I won't play anymore."

    Fang Jinshi thought about how Dong Zhongsun and he ignored him when he just went upstairs, but now he seemed a little enthusiastic, and felt a little strange in his heart. Just when he was about to say something more to him to increase his feelings, Dong Zhongsun said: "Master Fang, I'm here.  I'll go somewhere else, so I'll take my leave." After saying that, he left immediately. Fang Jinshi looked back and saw Xin Xingzong coming downstairs. Dong Zhongsun obviously didn't want others to see him talking to Fang Jinshi, so he left in a hurry.

    Xin Xingzong walked downstairs, ignored Fang Jinshi when he missed him, and walked out. Fang Jinshi took the initiative to step forward and said, "General Xin."

    Xin Xingzong stopped and stood there without looking back and said, "What's the matter?"

    Seeing that his attitude was not good, Fang Jinshi took a step closer and said, "I have something to ask General Xin. I hope you can tell me where Mr. Wang Yan, the man above me, came from."

    Xin Xingzong said: "Why don't you ask yourself, really!"

      When Fang Jinshi saw that he didn't say anything, he thought it was okay and wanted to walk away. Xin Xingzong turned around and said, "They said you used to serve in the Northwest Army, how come you came to serve in Jiangnan again?"

    Fang Jinshi said hurriedly: "My abilities are mediocre and I can't bear the hardships of the army, so I don't want to stay in the army anymore."

    Xin Xingzong looked at him up and down: "It seems that you are also a well-connected person." His words were full of contempt. He always felt that Fang Jinshi was just treating guests and giving gifts or being a relative of some important person, so he climbed up to the top.  He has not improved for a long time, so he will naturally think about this in his heart.

    Fang Jinshi said humbly: "I'm just lucky."

    Xin Xingzong said: "I don't know whether what Wang Daguan and others said about you being in the northwest is true or false."

    Fang Jinshi smiled and said, "Of course it's a lie. It's about another captain from the same clan as me. Zhang Guanli Dai was just added to me."

    Xin Xingzong curled his lips and said, "You don't look like it either." After saying that, he puffed out his chest and left in stride.
