Chapter 663: Violent Tiger
"Pavilion Chief, don't look at Ah Leopard, I'm almost forty, but when I am in the forest of Yuzhang Mountain, I can tear tigers and leopards, fight with wild boars and black bears, and even go into the water to slaughter dragons with white blades! As long as you say a word, you can slaughter that little flower and kill it effortlessly. โ
Dongmen Leopard and Heifu haven't seen each other for ten years, this guy didn't make promises because of Heifu's feudal marquis, but sat nearby, boasting about his martial arts, but shooting tigers, leopards, and wild boars is even counted, what's the matter with slaughtering Jiaolong?
Heifu looked at Licang on the side, and Licang could only carefully tell Heifu about the heroic deeds of Dongmen Leopard.
It turned out that two years ago, when Dongmen Leopard, as the vanguard of the Eastern Route Army, marched into Dongou County, passed through Damo County, Huiji County (Quzhou, Zhejiang), and crossed Zhejiang (Qiantang River), there were big ducks (tuรณ) lurking in the river, attacking the soldiers, biting two people to death, biting more than ten people, and the army hesitated.
Dongmen Leopard was furious, and even let people drive a bamboo raft into the river, using the slaughtered cattle and horses as bait, tempting the crocodile to appear, shooting it with a strong bow and arrow, and stabbing it with a spear, he even jumped into the water himself, poked a big crocodile two feet long with a halberd, and dragged its tail ashore, roasted it and distributed it to everyone for consumption......
As a result, "Dongmen Sima threw himself into the water and fought Jiao", which became a good story in the army.
Li Cang boasted about the future father-in-law there, and the leopard face in the east gate was colorful.
Not to mention that compared with Xiang Yu's "hundred-person enemy", there are always ten-person enemies, so it's no wonder that he has the confidence to fight with Mei Kai.
But Heifu still shook his head: "No! โ
"Does the Pavilion Chief still think I can't beat him?"
Dongmen Leopard was a little discouraged, he hadn't seen him for ten years, he was eager to show his bravery in front of Heifu, and it was no less than going to Beidi and Jiaodong with Heifu.
"Not really."
Heifu smiled: "It's not that I can't trust your martial arts, Mei Kai is just a little snake, and he has been captured, and he can't use your slaughtering blade." The Dongmen leopard who can capture and kill the dragon, if he wants to kill it, how can it be such a nameless person? โ
In fact, Heifu was afraid that the Dongmen leopard would capsize in the gutter and be damaged, so the gains outweighed the losses.
The rough man eats this set, and after the black man praised him, he suddenly fluttered.
"I haven't seen you for ten years, and Ah Leopard is still the same."
After the two of them talked about the old days, Heifu asked: "You made meritorious contributions when you subdued Don'ou, and now you are also a dignified public passenger and Sima of other departments, and your title is high, have you ever taken the word?" โ
Dongmen Leopard didn't care: "I'm a rough man, how can I use any words." โ
"I still want it."
Heifu said: "If your name is shocking to the world, others will call you by your name, and you will generally be replaced by words." So, I'll give you a word. โ
Dongmen Leopard was overjoyed, and Li Cang also thought secretly: "No wonder my father always said that among the many old departments of Anlu, the pavilion chief relied on him the most, the most trusted was Uncle Tao, the most laughing and scolding was Uncle Ji, and the most favored was Uncle Dongmen." โ
After thinking about it, Heifu had already written two big characters on the paper and gave it to Dongmen Leopard.
"What is this?"
Dongmen Leopard only knows how to read, and the second word he knows is "tiger", but the first one can't remember, so he asks Li Cang to roll over and read it.
"Uncle, this is a storm, and the second one is a tiger ......," Li Cang said with a smile.
"Do you think Naigong has been fighting tigers in the Yuzhang forest for so many years, and he doesn't even know the word tiger?"
Dongmen Leopard blew his beard and glared, pushed his future son-in-law away angrily, stared at the two words, and said with a smile: "Violent Tiger, good words, good words!" โ
He only felt that this word was domineering, but Lu Jia next to him knew what Heifu meant as soon as he heard it.
This is an allusion, in the Spring and Autumn Period, Zilu once asked Confucius: "If the master commands the three armies, who will he work with?" โ
"Confucius said: 'I will not work with the kind of person who fights the tiger empty-handed, crosses the river barefoot, and will not repent even if he dies. I have to work with someone who is cautious and good at achieving success through clever planning. โโ
If Heifu is a person who is afraid of things and is scheming, then Dongmen Leopard is the violent tiger Feng He, who dies without regrets, the former is a calm old handsome, and the latter is a pioneer and brave general.
This gift is not only to praise Dongmen Leopard's courage and ability to fight with the tiger, but also to admonish him not to be too reckless.
But this deep meaning, I don't know if Dongmen Leopard can understand it, and now he is too happy to thank Heifu repeatedly.
"One day, the prestige of the East Gate Violent Tiger will definitely spread all over the world."
After this episode, Dongmen Leopard has completely forgotten about Mei Kai.
Heifu didn't forget that this matter had to be resolved, so he asked Dongmen Leopard:
"Where are the two generals of Lixian and Wu Rui?"
Dongmen Leopard said: "Lixian took the people and carriages to the garrison Hengpu Pass, ready to welcome the arrival of the pavilion army, Wu Rui is behind me, it should be almost there......"
As soon as the words ended, with a burst of announcements, the tent was lifted again, and a middle-aged man with a long beard under his chin and wearing light leather armor bowed down to the black man:
"Fanyang Ling Wu Rui, I've seen the prince!"
"Good brother."
Heifu almost didn't recognize him, but he got up and helped him out.
In fact, the two don't have much friendship, and they can't even compare with the ordinary old department, and Heifu doesn't attach as much importance to Wu Rui as Zhao Tuo.
But the brotherly oath of the two sides has made Yuzhang County peaceful for ten years, and Wu Rui has his back to the mountain of Heifu and mixes like a fish in water in the system, so both sides are very tacitly warm on the surface.
After the greetings, Heifu pulled Wu Rui outside, Mei Kai had been tied to the flagpole of a chariot, and after scolding for a long time under the scorching sun of midsummer, he was also tired and drooped his head.
"This Mei Li is Wu's nephew, go and persuade him."
"Don't hide it from my brother, I have already persuaded a few words when I passed by, but I was spit on by this son."
Wu Rui touched his face, a little annoyed, in Lingnan, many Yue people thought that Wu Rui, as the head of the Ganyue monarch, helped the Qin people enslave the same clan, and was a disciple of the tiger.
"This Mei Kai, even his own maternal uncle doesn't recognize it? It can't be that everyone in the Mei family is so stubborn, right? โ
Heifu looked at Wu Rui and explained his plan: "Brother Xian asked Wu Chen to report before, saying that he wanted to send someone to lobby the Mei clan and surrender the army without a fight. โ
"At that time, I didn't want to do this, because I didn't want to show weakness, I would rather win, but now, we can talk about it......"
Heifu compared to Mei Kai and said with a smile: "Because, we already have the best chips!" โ

At the beginning of June in the 35th year of the reign of Qin Shi Huang, when the heat covered the land, Heifu left the newly occupied city with thousands of men and came to the Danxia Rock in Shaoshi Mountain.
It must be admitted that once the Yue people escaped into the mountains and forests, the Qin army had no way to take them, although Heifu captured Mei Kai, but Mei's strength is particularly existing, even if the Beijiang Road is temporarily opened, but it is still not safe, and the old baggage team in the forest is still facing attacks at any time, whether it is to send a large army to escort or leave troops to guard, there are flaws, and it is protracted and the loss is great.
The first time I cut Yue, I was defeated in this kind of jungle guerrilla warfare, so the problem had to be solved at once.
Either the Mei clan agrees to negotiate and accept Heifu's terms, or they will fight until this tribe is completely destroyed and this mountain forest is completely burned!
In the past ten days, Heifu asked Mei Kai to tie up Mei Kai around the edge of the forest, and at the same time let Wu Chen enter the forest, contact the elder of the Mei family, and finally agreed to meet here.
The place was chosen by Heifu, because Mei Kai's life was in his hands, and whether he came at will or not, it was a big deal to tear up the ticket.
Standing on the Danxia Rock, Heifu and Wu Rui chatted about the sky, and when the sun rose to the middle of the day, the Dongmen Leopard guarding the periphery came to report in person.
"Pavilion Chief, the Mei clan sent someone here, it's just ......"
Heifu raised his eyes: "What?" โ
Dongmen Leopard was so angry: "It's just that the leader is a woman!" โ
