Textbooks are an extremely important part of the education system. The Medical School has the great doctor Sun Simiao, who helped compile the textbooks, which allows the Medical School to run smoothly. But where should the textbooks of the military academy come from?

Military academies are places where military arts are taught, but they cannot directly use Sun Tzu's Art of War as textbooks. In fact, Sun Tzu's Art of War is more like a general outline of the art of war, which summarizes many things in the concept of military art. They can usually study or study it yourself, but it is definitely not suitable as a textbook.

The most important thing is that after so many years of development of the military, many concepts and weapons have been innovated, so the textbooks of the martial arts school must also keep up, and it is best to write a textbook by the Tang Dynasty's military army.

However, there are two problems with writing textbooks by yourself. There are not many people who can be called the master of military arts since ancient times. Moreover, even if Sun Wu reborn, it is probably not easy to write a textbook according to the requirements of the martial arts school. Sometimes it may take several years or even more than ten years.

"Shangshu Pei, why don't you discuss with General Xue to see if you can write a textbook by yourself?" Zhang Zong tentatively suggested to Pei Xingjian on the busy martial arts school construction site.

Since the time when Pei Xingjian came back that day, Zhang Zong has been worried about this matter, but Pei Xingjian didn't seem to be in a hurry. Instead, he just asked Zhang Zong to think about it himself first. As a result, Zhang Zong thought about it for so many days and only came up with such a solution that was not a solution.

"I don't have that great ability. There are probably only two people in the Tang Dynasty who dare to be called the master of military arts." Pei Xingjian smiled and shook his head and said.

"Which two are there? Can we invite them to help?" Zhang Zong heard Pei Xingjian say that there were two military masters, and he immediately said excitedly that he really didn't know much about the military, so he knew nothing about the current military masters.

"You must have heard of these two people, one is Emperor Taizong and the other is Duke Wei!" Pei Xingjian replied with a smile again.

"This..." Zhang Zong was speechless when he heard this. Li Shimin and Li Jing were indeed rare masters of military tactics, but the key was that they were both dead, which made him smile helplessly, "Pei Shangshu, don't joke. Emperor Taizong and Duke Wei are no longer alive. I can't run to Zhaoling to disturb them, right?"

Zhaoling is also the name of Li Shimin's imperial tomb. Li Jing was buried there after his death. Unfortunately, Zhang Zong did not have the ability to revive the dead, otherwise he could go to Zhaoling to give it a try.

However, Pei Xingjian still smiled again slowly, and then said, "Don't worry, although the person is gone, some things have not disappeared, such as the military books left by Duke Wei!"

"Yes!" Zhang Zong suddenly slapped his forehead when he heard this. He actually forgot Li Jing's military book!

Li Shimin won’t say that his military talent is not inferior to Li Jing, but he is the emperor and has no time to write down his military strategy. Instead, because Li Jing made too much contribution to his establishment, he locked himself at home on the excuse of foot disease and had plenty of time to waste it. So he wrote his experience in using troops into a military book, and there were quite a few.

However, although Li Jing wrote many military books, most of them were lost before the Song Dynasty. For example, Li Jing wrote military books such as "Li Weigong Looking at the South of the Yangtze River", "Six Army Mirror", "Jade Tank Classic", "Shuo Jian Jing", "New Book of Military Bells", "Li Weigong Asks", and "Weigong Art of War".

However, among the seven military books above, the first five are lost, and only the two are passed down to later generations. Among them, "Question of Li Wei Gong" is suspected to be written by the Song people under the name of Li Jing. In other words, the only one that has truly spread to later generations is the last "The Art of War", which is incomplete, which also makes countless scholars in later generations sigh.

However, Zhang Zong lived in this era not too far from Li Jing's death, and it was only more than 30 years ago. Li Jing's children and grandchildren were still officials in the court, so Li Jing's military strategy should still be preserved. They could go to the mansion to borrow it, and then revise it as a textbook.

Thinking of the above, Zhang Zong couldn't help but stand up excitedly and whispered: "Then what are we waiting for? Why don't we go to the Duke of Wei's Mansion now, borrow the military books early, and revise the textbooks early!"

However, Pei Xingjian was still very calm. He reached out and patted Zhang Zong on the shoulder and said again: "Don't worry, it may be difficult for us to rely on this matter alone. Your Majesty must come forward."

Zhang Zong was stunned when he heard this, and then he realized that people in this era were relatively conservative, especially the knowledge passed down from his family, and he was unwilling to show it to others easily. This is true for both medicine and military tactics. Although Li Jing was a broad-minded military tactics master and was even willing to pass on military tactics to Li Ji, Su Dingfang and others, his descendants may not have his mind.

Thinking of the above, Zhang Zong also showed a solemn expression. He was almost certain that Li Jing's descendants would definitely regard his military books as heirlooms and would not easily show them to others. Otherwise, most of Li Jing's military tactics would not be lost. After all, if they were willing to pass on the military books, so many military books could be passed down at least.

"Then should we go to see Your Majesty now and ask Your Majesty to come forward and ask the Duke of Wei's Mansion to hand over the military letter?" Zhang Zong immediately spoke again. Since the Li family was unwilling to take out the military letter, he could only ask Li Zhi to come forward.

"After all, Duke Wei made contributions to the Tang Dynasty. Even His Majesty may not be willing to force them, so you can't be too hasty about this matter, but you have to slowly take it. But you don't have to worry. I have reported to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty also agreed to come forward, but now you may not have thought about how to tell the people of the Li family." Pei Xingjian replied with a smile again. He had already thought about this matter clearly, but Li Zhi had no movement, so he could only wait patiently.

When Zhang Zong heard that Li Zhi had agreed to come forward to talk about military books with the people of the Li family, he was relieved. Then he suddenly looked at Pei Xingjian with curiosity and asked: "Shu Pei, Duke Xing has learned military art from Duke Wei, and you have been taught military art by Duke Xing, so what you learned is Duke Wei's military art?"
