Chapter 81: Going to the Feast

Qin Shuhuai was a little stunned when he heard the whole thing. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Sun Chengzong, the top strategist of the Chongzhen Dynasty, the emperor of the two dynasties, and the cabinet veteran of the year, went with him to negotiate with the Giant Whale Gang and a group of underworlds?

The brain made up the picture, and the conversation between the two groups collapsed, and then Sun Ge Lao lifted the table and pulled out a machete, shouting bare-chested, "I have a green dragon on the left and a white tiger on the right, and the old cow is ......in front of the chest."

It's exciting to think about!

Chongzhen was also a little unbearable, and said, "Teacher, the affairs of the rivers and lakes ......"

Sun Chengzong waved his hand nonchalantly and interrupted Chongzhen's words. In this world, perhaps only he dared to interrupt Chongzhen's words.

"The old man has lived most of his life, and he has seen everyone, but he has never seen such a young man as Shuhuai Xiaoyou. These days, every time I hear about the amazing deeds of my little friend, the old man exclaims that he is happy! When he was young, the old man also had the heart of fresh clothes and angry horses, and fought with swords, but unfortunately he still went to the court after all, and spent most of his life with those fox dogs. Nowadays, there is a rare place for the old man to show his skills, how can the old man miss it? Your Majesty, Shuhuai Xiaoyou, if you don't let the old man go, the old man will go home tomorrow to recuperate. ”

Qin Shuhuai never thought that the famous Sun Chengzong and Sun Ge Lao would be so cute when he was stubborn. Although this old man is not in his position, he is still loyal to the Ming Dynasty. In addition to disdaining to be an official in the same dynasty as those pedantic scholars, he is willing to do anything for the Ming Dynasty, even if it is to risk his identity and surrender himself to negotiate with a group of charlatans!

The same is true of Sun Chengzong in history. In the seventh year after his second resignation and return to his hometown, he was besieged by the Qing army in his hometown, and knowing that he was defeated, he still led his family and local villagers to resist bravely, and was finally defeated and captured. At that time, Dolgon personally came to persuade him to surrender, but he sternly refused, and finally hanged himself generously, and even the Qing army respected him.

Aside from anything else, this old man deserves respect for that alone.

Chongzhen looked at Sun Chengzong, shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly. As a teacher, I can't even help myself if I am stubborn.

Qin Shuhuai saw that Chongzhen had no intention of objecting, so he said, "If Sun Ge is willing to come out, it will naturally be a top trick." Oh no, one top ten!

This is not a compliment. Sun Chengzong's eloquence is also recorded in history, when he and Wang Zaijin debated the construction of the city in Shanhaiguan, Wang Zaijin was speechless after a series of sonorous and powerful speeches. After the change of his own life, he once argued eloquently with hundreds of officials, and finally saved Zu Dashou, which shows his good eloquence.

Seeing this, Chongzhen had no choice but to say, "Since this is the case, then please ask the teacher to take this trip." However, the teacher must not force the negotiation to succeed or not, and even if it fails, we always have another way. All in all, the teacher's body is the most important thing, just don't get angry with those vulgar people. ”

Sun Chengzong smiled and said, "The old man knows, thank you for the emperor's concern." ”

Chongzhen said to Qin Shuhuai again, "Shuhuai, you must ensure the safety of the teacher when you go." If there is a difference, I am the only one who asks. ”

Qin Shuhuai responded, "The emperor can rest assured, Weichen will guarantee the head of Xiang Shang, and he will definitely protect Sun Ge's old and thoughtful future!"

Sun Chengzong said that he would do it, and immediately packed some clothes in Liushi Academy, found a carriage, and followed Qin Shuhuai back to Qingwu Town that afternoon.

The Qinglongtang gang saw that Qin Shuhuai had gone out for a day, and when he came back, he brought an old man with white hair, all of whom were confused. And he also opened his mouth to call the other party "you old", and closed his mouth to call himself "boy", which made the second monk even more confused.

But the boss of his family is so polite to him, and the brothers should be careful.

I didn't expect this old man to put on the score, shouting at the big guys, and pointing fingers at everyone when they were practicing, saying that they couldn't fight in a system, and saying that there was no formation to be vulnerable, if it weren't for the face of the incense master, everyone would have rushed up and beat him.

It is said that after Sun Chengzong inspected the Qinglong Hall, he said angrily to Qin Shuhuai when he returned to the room, "Boy, it seems that you have already burned the "Cheying Deduction and Answer Compilation" given to you by the old man, right?"

Qin Shuhuai hurriedly smiled and said, "Such a treasure, how dare the kid put it indiscriminately, naturally it is treasured." If you don't believe it, I'll get it for you. ”

Sun Chengzong said, "No need. Books are to be seen, not hidden. This book is written by the old man who has devoted his whole life to the experience and wisdom of dozens of generals, and there are many methods for arranging troops and arranging formations, so why don't you use them? Look at your subordinates, who only know how to practice but not how to fight in battle, how will they go into battle and kill the enemy in the future?"

Qin Shuhuai smiled helplessly. The "Combination of Vehicles and Battalions" is indeed a practical instruction manual for infantry, chariots, cavalry, and firearms to work together. But the problem is, not to mention chariots and firearms, even the cavalry can't make up much, so how can they rehearse the battle formation according to this manual?

However, Sun Chengzong's words reminded him. The ability of the people in the rivers and lakes to fight alone is not weak, but they often cannot defeat the regular army, because they only attach importance to personal cultivation and ignore the use of battle formations. At present, there are only a few sects on the rivers and lakes that have battle formations, such as the Five Elements Banner Great Array of the Demon Sect, the Seven Star Beidou Array of Wudang, etc., but they are far from being as systematic and huge as the regular army. If you can practice a formation in the Qinglong Hall, it will definitely double your combat power.

It's just that this kind of formation must be simple and effective, and it can be the kind that doesn't use cars or firearms, otherwise it won't be enough to smash the pot and sell iron by yourself.

stayed in Qinglong Hall for one night, and early the next morning, Qin Shuhuai took Sun Chengzong, Lai San'er, Pigou and several other subordinates to march to Wuqing lightly. At present, the Wuqing rudder of the Giant Whale Gang is located in Wuqing County.

After entering Wuqing County, Qin Shuhuai first sent Lai San'er to the Giant Whale Gang to send a post, and he and Sun Chengzong first found an inn to rest. It didn't take long for Lai San'er to come back, saying that the helmsman of the Giant Whale Gang Wuqing agreed to meet and would hold a dinner to welcome Qin Shuhuai and his party.

In the evening, Qin Shuhuai and Sun Chengzong went to the Giant Whale Gang to divide the rudder. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Sun Chengzong assumed the alias Sun Dazong, and his identity was the manager of Qinglongtang.

When I came to the Giant Whale Gang Wuqing to divide the rudder, I saw the lights at the door, so it was not lively.

A swarthy man with bare chest hair greeted him at the door with seven or eight brothers, and when he saw Qin Shuhuai and his party, he immediately greeted him with a smile.

"Haha, presumably Your Excellency is the Qin Xiang Lord of the Jianghe Gang Qinglong Hall?

The Giant Whale Gang held a banquet to welcome them, and sent the deputy helmsman to greet them at the door in person, which really gave the Jianghe Gang enough face, proving that the Giant Whale Gang attaches great importance to the relationship with the Jianghe Gang. This is not difficult to understand, although the strength of the Giant Whale Gang is above that of the River Gang, after all, at this juncture, multiple friends are better than multiple enemies.

Qin Shuhuai also smiled and arched his hand, and said, "Let Deputy Helmsman Liu greet him personally, I am really ashamed to be here!"

Liu Dashou said politely, "Where, where." Lord Qin Xiang is a distinguished guest, how dare we slack off? The banquet has been prepared, Lord Qin Xiang is invited to come in. ”

Qin Shuhuai and Sun Chengzong entered the door. After walking through a long corridor and around a small delicate garden, you finally come to the main hall.

(Regarding Sun Chengzong, the evaluation of him in history is polarized, and everyone who is interested can take a look, but this book will not examine which one is right and which is wrong.) History is never conclusive, right and wrong, success or failure, many things in ancient and modern times are laughing and talking, everyone just looks at it with this mood. Another: There are too many things today, and there may only be two watches. I used to make it up every time the next day, but tomorrow there are a lot of things, it is estimated that it can only be three watches, anyway, if I don't make it up tomorrow, I will make it up the day after tomorrow, rolling for understanding~~ Thank you!)
