Chapter 32 The Four Generals of Zhongxing

Wang De, Wang Yasha.

Generally, people who are not very familiar with the history of the late Northern Song Dynasty and the early Southern Song Dynasty will not know who he is.

But if you want to talk about the "Four Generals of Zhongxing" in the Southern Song Dynasty, there may be more people who know it.

They are: Han Shizhong, Yue Fei, Wu Jue, Liu Qi.

In addition to the version of "Han Shizhong, Yue Fei, Wu Jue, Liu Qi" The four generals of ZTE, there is actually another version of the four generals of ZTE, they are: Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong, Liu Guangshi, Yue Fei.

Many people believe by emotion that the first version of the ZTE Four Generals is the real ZTE Four Generals.

However, in fact, after the Song dynasty crossed to the south, Zhao Gou and other powerful people believed that Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong, Liu Guangshi, and Yue Fei were the most outstanding generals in the DPRK and China, and they played a major role in resisting the Jin soldiers and ensuring the establishment and consolidation of the Southern Song Dynasty regime, and were known as the "Four Generals of Zhongxing".

In other words, the four generals of Zhongxing recognized by the Southern Song Dynasty court are actually the second version, and the Southern Song Dynasty court even drew a map of the four generals of Zhongxing for Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, Liu Guangshi, and Yue Fei.

This picture has not disappeared in the long river of history, it has been preserved, and it has been collected in the Forbidden City in later generations.

Hearing this fact, many people can't help but be a little indignant, and don't understand how can Zhang Jun, who can only flatter, and Liu Guangshi, who can only escape, be able to replace Wu Jue, who defeated the Jin army many times to defend Shu for the Southern Song Dynasty and avoided the destruction of the Southern Song Dynasty, and Liu Qi, who defeated the Western Xia army many times and the Jin army in the Battle of Shunchang, defeated the Jin army's "Tiefutu" and "Kidnapping Horse" defeated the Jin Wushu in the Battle of Shunchang?

Again, history is complicated.

There is absolutely no one who can blend into the level of commander of a military region who is incapable and has not made contributions.

Therefore, Zhang Jun and Liu Guangshi in history have not always been Hua Shuai and Liu Ranran, in fact, they have also thrown their heads and spilled blood for the country.

Zhang Jun won't talk about it for now.

Let's talk about Liu Guangshi first.

Liu Guangshi, who was born in Jiangmen and his father was a marshal of Yanyan Road, debuted very early, and he can be said to have participated in all the important battles between the two Song Dynasty, like Square La, like recovering Yanyun, like suppressing the rebel army, like the battle of Song and Jin.

Liu Guangshi can be regarded as a rare general who can fight in the early period (late Northern Song Dynasty), and he is really a rare Song general who takes the initiative to save the country and serve the country.

But at that time, the problems of the Northern Song Dynasty broke out intensively, and it was not something that could be changed by one or two people at all.

As a result, Liu Guangshi was defeated again and again, defeated again and again, running from north to south, and from south to north, achieving the name of Liu Runpao.

Those who are good at fighting are not defeated, and those who are good at losing are not defeated.

Liu Guangshi belongs to the latter group.

To be fair, compared with the generals who fled at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Liu Guangshi is really not bad.

And the second half of Liu Guangshi's life, that is, the Southern Song Dynasty, the reason why he was able to get better and better, and he also mixed with one of the four generals of ZTE, not only because Liu Guangshi would be defeated, but also because he got a baby.

This treasure is Wang Dewang Yasha.

Liu Guangshi fought almost all the battles that showed his face during the Southern Song Dynasty were fought by Wang De.

Later, Liu Guangshi and Wang De parted ways, and Liu Guangshi completely became Liu Ranran, and even often compared with Zhao Gou and Zhao Ranran.

And Wang De became a famous anti-gold general, broke Qi and defeated Jin several times, and also defeated Yan Zongbi, that is, Jin Wushu.

This Wang De is a fierce general by nature, not only brave and good at fighting, but also extremely proficient in the way of leading soldiers.

It turned out that Xu Meng said that his brother "took the enemy's head from the army like probing the bag to get something", and Cai still laughed at Xu Meng's exaggeration.

But after knowing that the person Xu Meng said was Wang De, Cai still knew that Xu Meng's description may not be exaggerated at all.

Cai still even moved the idea of inviting Wang De in person.

But at the last moment, Cai still gave up this idea.

Throughout Wang De's life, he can definitely fight, but he is definitely not easy to control.

Of course, this is also excusable, after all, a capable person is somewhat arrogant, and if he is not convinced, how can he be willing to obey orders?

In order to convince Wang De, in order to make Wang De, a fierce general, willing to serve himself, Cai still must not breed Wang De's arrogance.

Therefore, Cai still did not go to see Wang De in person, but asked Xu Meng to bring Wang De over the next day.

……

Early the next morning, Cai still made some preparations, and then pretended to be the same as usual, and brought his more than 300 recruits to the recruitment office, and continued to recruit and train recruits at the same time.

On the surface, Cai still looks the same as before.

But in fact, only Cai still knows that he is anxious.

As the saying goes, thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find.

Elite soldiers, as long as there is an abundant supply of soldiers, they can always be recruited and recruited enough.

But a good general, then it is really a good general that can be met but not sought, especially a first-class good general like Wang De, to paraphrase a lyric of later generations: Some people, once they miss it, they will not come again.

Sometimes, however, the more you worry about something, the more you come.

The more Cai is worried that Wang De will not come, Wang De will not come.

Not only did Wang De not come, but even Xu Meng, who said that he had brought Wang De, did not come.

Seeing it, it is about to rise to the sky.

Cai still couldn't help muttering in his heart:

"What's going on? Did Xu Meng say a big thing, he couldn't bring Wang De at all, so he didn't come either? ”

"Probably not, right? Xu Meng can call out Wang De's name, and he must have some friendship with Wang De, just once, this face, Wang De should be able to sell it to Xu Meng, right? ”

"I knew this was the case, I might as well go to Xu Meng's house yesterday."

“……”

During the lunch break, Cai still hastily ate a few steamed buns, drank two bowls of mutton soup, and left alone, making the cooks think that the food they made today was not to Cai Ying's taste.

After Cai still left, he walked alone in the direction of Yangwu County for a while.

After walking for a while, just as Cai was still preparing to go back to continue recruiting and training, two peasant women came in front.

A peasant woman said as she walked: "What two good men, both have been fighting for almost two hours, and they are not too tired, and the iron is average, if it weren't for the fear that my bastard boy will set the house on fire, I really want to see who wins and who loses." ”

Another strong woman said: "It's two good men, especially the white descendant, I really didn't expect that he could fight with that Yaksha ghost." ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

As soon as he heard the peasant woman say "Yaksha", Cai was still moved in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to inquire with the two peasant women: "Two sisters-in-law, excuse me, I don't know where the two heroes you said are fighting?" ”

One of the peasant women, casually pointed to her hand, and said, "It's down the hillside over there." ”

Cai still listened, thanked him, and then strode in the direction pointed by the peasant woman......
