Chapter 185 Fight against the outside world and Annei!
Xiying Town is located northeast of Caishi Town, about thirty or forty miles away!
Unlike the 'barren' Caishi Town, Xiying Town is located on a small plain in the mountains. It has fertile land and a dense population. It is a prosperous town! Moreover, although Caishi and Xiying are both military towns,
However, the private households in Xiying Town account for almost half of the population. The business is booming and there is plenty of oil and water. There is always a good job!
Xiying Town is at the Qianhu level, with about four to five hundred scattered garrison troops. The current Qianhu is called Yu Dabao, and he is a close aide of Jiang Jin, the commander of the Acropolis.
However, although Yu Dabao was also a servant of Jiangjin, after a few years of prosperity, he had lost his courage as before. He was full of fat and weighed nearly 300 kilograms. He had completely become a tool for Jiangjin to make money.
Although Liu Ruyi had not had much contact with him, he had also heard that merchants in the past called him "Yu Papi". As long as merchants passed by him with goods, he would definitely pluck off a layer of skin!
Gujiagou, where the accident happened, is less than ten miles away from Xiying Town. Although Zhuangzi is not big, most of them are wealthy people! These ordinary people are backed by thousands of households and are used to being stable! They can't imagine that they are in the middle of the army.
Under my nose, my home was slaughtered by bandits overnight!
Liu Ruyi's face was cold and she said coldly: "Do you know who did it?"
The soldier hurriedly said: "Sir, the man who delivered the message was seriously injured and fainted after saying that! However, from what he said, he seemed to be a nine-lived old cat!"
‘Old cat with nine lives?’ Liu Ruyi read the name gently, nodded, and waved his hand to signal the soldiers to retreat!
To be able to commit such a murder under the eyes of the officers and soldiers, no one in Nanshan, except this old cat with nine lives, has the courage!
"Ruyi, these bandits are too rampant, aren't they? What do the officers and soldiers in Xiying Town do for a living, and they refuse to save them? Do they just let the bandits do whatever they want?" Zhang Guangqi heard at first glance
I still didn’t understand this news. It took me a long time to realize it!
Liu Ruyi couldn't help but smile bitterly. In the current situation, no matter whether they are civil servants or military attachés, everyone only knows how to make money from their pockets. How many people are actually doing things?
"Sir, I'm afraid this matter is not that simple!" Liu Ruyi sighed and said: "This nine-lived old cat is the leader of the evil bandits in Nanshan. Generally, he will not take action easily, but once he takes action, he will definitely
It’s all a big deal! It’s not like a day to freeze three feet!”
"Ruyi, if we send troops now, will the people in Gujiagou be saved?" Zhang Guangqi didn't want to hear about the dirty talk among the officers and soldiers, so he asked directly.
Liu Ruyi weakly shook her head, "This place is thirty-five miles away from Xiying. It's already midnight. Not to mention that we don't know the strength of the bandits and whether there is an ambush. We know their details.
By the time we arrive, they may have already fled into the mountains!"
"Hey! Unexpectedly, I just returned to my hometown and encountered this kind of thing! It's really embarrassing!" Zhang Guangqi sighed in annoyance, full of frustration!
"Sir, maybe I have to bear some responsibility for this matter! Hey! It's selfish! I've heard of this nine-lived old cat's many evil deeds, but it's just because of...hey!"
In front of Zhang Guangqi, Liu Ruyi did not hide his true feelings. The old cat with nine lives has been causing trouble for many years. In addition to his own extreme caution and secretive whereabouts, the officers and soldiers were not ruthless, which is one of the reasons why he has been at large now! In Liu's case
In Ruyi's heart, there is also some meaning of 'raising a thief to respect himself'!
Zhang Guangqi looked into Liu Ruyi's eyes. After a while, he suddenly let out a long breath and said, "Ruyi, thank you for your sincerity to me! I can understand your difficulties! However, the sage said that the selfless heart is broad! These common people,
No matter who is under the rule, they are all the people of my Ming Dynasty, and they are our sisters and brothers! Watching them suffer makes me feel uncomfortable!"
"Sir, my disciples can't match your ambition! Oh~~~, Ruyi is being pretentious!" Liu Ruyi bowed deeply to Zhang Guangqi, "Sir, Ruyi has a confusion in his heart, which has been bothering me for a long time. Please help me clear it up."
!"
Zhang Guangqi nodded, glanced at Liu Ruyi meaningfully, and said meaningfully: "Ruyi, do you want to learn from Cao Mengde?"
Liu Ruyi was stunned for a moment and did not accept it, but did not deny it immediately. After a moment, she said: "Sir, which one comes first and which one comes last?"
Zhang Guangqi picked up the wine glass, took a hard sip, and then sprinkled the rest of the wine on the ground, "As you wish, it doesn't matter which comes first! The key is, you have to know what you want! You should go
Do something! Just like suppressing bandits, if you do it, you may not get any merit, and you will also lose people, but the people in the surrounding countryside will be grateful for your merits! If you don't do it,
In the short term, you may have retained your strength, but you have lost the opportunity to win the hearts and minds of these people!"
After Zhang Guangqi finished speaking, he directly picked up the wine bottle, poured a large drink into his mouth, and said: "Ruyi, you are a smart boy! Along the way, to this point, you have proven your ability! Why?
The teacher is old, and maybe there are some things that I have not put myself in your shoes! However, I have read a few books of sages in my life, and I admit that I have some one-sided interpretations of history books! The young eagle spreads its wings,
The golden carp jumps over the dragon gate without the support of the sky, but it also needs the support of the river! Ruyi, you have to understand where your roots are! One of the notes I gave you records Taizu’s experience in those years.
, maybe, it can give you some inspiration! "
The reason why Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was able to stand out in the battle for hegemony at the end of the Yuan Dynasty was not because of his superior force or noble origin, but because of his calm mind and accurate judgment of the situation!
When the Meng Yuan Dynasty was destined to retreat to the north, and Chen Youliang, Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhang Shicheng were the three dominant families, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting in Jinling and was surrounded by Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng. In terms of strength, he should be the weakest at that time!
Faced with this dilemma, Zhu Yuanzhang was not impatient, but adopted the strategy of 'cutting his wings and dividing them into parts'!
At that time, Chen Youliang controlled the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River and had hundreds of thousands of elite naval forces. He was undoubtedly the strongest! Later historians verified that the warships developed by Chen Youliang at that time were said to be more advanced than the Spanish double-track sailing warships in the 17th century.
!This man is brave and good at fighting, and has the heart of a tiger and a wolf. He has the best chance to win the world!
On the one hand, Zhu Yuanzhang sent people to make peace with Zhang Shicheng, but on the other hand, he sent troops to the west, first wiping out the small warlords who were attached to Chen Youliang! Because Zhu Yuanzhang was very clear-minded. If he attacked Zhang Shicheng first, Chen Youliang would definitely attack along the river. On the contrary, if he attacked Chen Youliang first,
According to Zhang Shicheng's temperament, he must have left the matter alone and left it alone!
As expected, Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang were killed in the Poyang Lake Water Battle, and they were still alive and dead. However, Zhang Shicheng slept soundly in Suzhou City with his beloved wife and concubine in his arms. By the time the Poyang Lake Water Battle decided the winner, the overall situation of the world had been decided.
point!
Liu Ruyi knew some of this history in his previous life, and Liu Ruyi had read the notes given to him by Zhang Guangqi many times. At this time, Zhang Guangqi's words were already somewhat heart-wrenching!
"Sir, I understand, Ruyi understands!" Liu Ruyi kowtowed to Zhang Guangqi respectfully several times, and the connections in his head gradually became clearer!
…………
Fifty or sixty miles southeast of Caishi Town, there is a stretch of continuous mountains. Its main body is composed of six slender finger-like peaks, just like six fingers inserted into the sky. People are accustomed to calling this place
'Six Finger Mountain!'
Near Liuzhi Mountain, there is a vast virgin forest, inaccessible to people, and it is the territory of big insects, cheetahs and other ferocious beasts. Even the most experienced old hunter in the mountain does not dare to come here easily!
No one would have thought that the lair of the Nine-Life Old Cat, the leader of Nanshan’s evil bandits, would be located on the Erzhi Peak of Liuzhi Mountain!
Erzhi Peak, as the name suggests, is the index finger of this hand. It is the shortest among the six mountains, and the hilltop is also the gentlest. The old cat's lair is on the top of Erzhi Mountain!
There is not much space at the top of Erzhi Peak, only about four or five acres. There is a clear spring "Gugu" emerging in the middle. It maintains normal temperature all year round. The main village of Nine Lives Old Cat is built around this clear spring.
!
At this time, the old cat with nine lives was sitting on the throne of Juyi Hall, furious: "You stupid bear! Are you fucking crazy? Who asked you to do this! Who is it?"
Kneeling below him was a man with a full beard and a body as majestic as a black bear. He was shivering and didn't even dare to show his anger, "Cat, Mr. Cat, this matter, this matter is the second master's idea! He
, He said, this, this is what you mean, little one, little one is just following orders!"
"Fart! When did I ask you to do this! Get out! Get out of here! Go back to your village! Without my instructions, you can't even leave even half a fucking step!" the old cat with nine lives shouted.
"Yes, yes!" As if he had received amnesty, the black bear hurriedly escaped from the spacious hall without even daring to look back, and quickly disappeared without a trace.
"Second boss? Second boss? What exactly do you want to do?" The nine-life old cat slowly fell into deep thought!
In fact, as the leader of Nanshan bandits, Nine Lives Old Cat should be a man with a ruthless face and strong martial arts skills in other people's imagination. But on the contrary, he is weak in stature, has delicate features, and seems to have no power to restrain a chicken.
, more like a scholar rushing for exams. If he were put into the crowd, no one would believe that he was the infamous old cat with nine lives!
But even so, no one has ever dared to underestimate him or challenge his majesty, because he relies on brains, not force!
Having been licking blood from the knife edge for many years, the old cat with nine lives has developed an instinct to deal with crises. In the past few days, he kept waking up from nightmares, always feeling that something was going to happen. Unexpectedly, just now, he suddenly
After receiving the news, someone actually carried him on his back, secretly went down the mountain to rob, and directly massacred the village!
This~~?
The old cat with nine lives suddenly panicked, and he had a very ominous premonition!
