The lights in the dense forest in the distance are brilliant, a team is struggling to move forward, it must be too tired, the whole team 'does not hear the sound of people, but hears the sigh of the horse', the atmosphere of silence gives people a strong sense of depression, the surrounding grass and trees seem to understand the painful experience of this team, and it seems to kill a lot.

The torches were red, and the meandering light shone on the path of the procession, and the direction of travel seemed to be apathetic, like a headless fly scurrying back and forth in the dense forest.

In the middle of the procession, several armored generals surrounded a man dressed as a civilian official, pointing at a map spread out with the help of the red firelight. The civilian-looking man looked very desolate, with a pair of cloudy old eyes, staring indifferently at the map in front of him, allowing the generals to argue and discuss, and turning a blind eye to the results of the arguments that came forward to report....... For a long time, the civil official raised his eyes and looked at the night sky in the distance in a daze, looking helpless.

This civil official is Cao Bangfu, the governor of Yingtian, who was a jinshi in the eleventh year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, and successively served as Yuancheng, Nanhe Zhixian, Yunnan Provincial Imperial History, Shaanxi Governor, Metropolitan Procuratorate Zuodu Imperial History, Military Department Yanlang, Nanjing Hubu Shangshu and other posts.

Since taking office, Cao Bangfu has been sympathetic to the people's suffering, dared to criticize the powerful, and enforced the law impartially, and was a rare capable official of the Ming Dynasty.

A few days ago, Cao Bangfu heard the news that 'a gang of Japanese pirates made a rebellion, invaded Nanjing and other places, and then drove thousands of miles to fight in many regions to Zhejiang', and when he was furious, he led the officers and troops of the Nanjing Guard Station to encircle and suppress, and engaged the Japanese in the Zhejiang region several times, and led the soldiers to bravely kill the enemy, and defeated the Japanese in succession. However, when the Japanese were skilled in battle and could not be defeated, they fled far away from the depths of the dense forest. Cao Bangfu was eager to kill the thief, and as a last resort, he led the soldiers to go deep into the mountains and forests to encircle and suppress it with all his might.

Cao Bangfu is very sad, as a civil official, he has been working hard all day long, but he still can't escape the intrigue of officialdom for many years; Cao Bangfu was also very angry, now leading the troops to fight, he thought that he could be a lot less treacherous in officialdom, but when he looked back, he found that what he thought was too simple, and the great cause of resisting the Japanese was also mixed with the interests of officialdom, which was unguardable.

He was angry that Zhao Wenhua, the servant of the Ministry of Works, who was ordered to sacrifice to the sea, and the treacherous villains headed by Zhao Wenhua did not understand military command, nor were they familiar with the battle array, and they also intervened in the great cause of resisting the Japanese from time to time, and framed loyal ministers everywhere for being greedy for merit and taking merit. Zhang Jing, the former governor of Zhejiang, Li Tianzhong, the governor of Zhejiang, Yang Jisheng, a member of the military selection division of the Ministry of War, and Tang Kekuan, the deputy chief of Su Song, were framed by this shameless villain, and they are currently in prison, and their lives and deaths are uncertain.

Take this invasion of the Japanese invaders as an example, Zhao Wenhua made a big fuss, setting up constraints everywhere, hoping to transfer the credit to himself in order to achieve the reputation of resisting the Japanese.

Cao Bangfu was very helpless, he wanted to cut Zhao Wenhua with a knife, he has always had this idea since he served as the governor of Yingtian, and this thought has appeared countless times in his mind in the past year, but it is a pity that Zhao Wenhua has a good godfather---- Yan Song, the feng shui at home is too prosperous, and the traitor father and son are embarrassed to be traitors, and they have the great cause of fighting against the Japanese on the southeast coast, and they have the intention to kill the thief but have no power to return to the sky.

Now, in the face of this gang of unscrupulous widows, Zhao Wenhua has repeatedly ordered Cao Bangfu not to act rashly, and even put forward a proposal to jointly strangle with Cao Bangfu.

Could it be that after discovering the traces of the widows, they have to go all the way to inform Zhao Wenhua? And then in the empty promise of 'joint encirclement and suppression', you missed the opportunity, and watched the Japanese invaders calmly retreat and escape into the mountains and forests again? No matter what, life is in the world, life and death are fate, dare to act is a big husband, what virtue Zhao Wenhua has, he has God's punishment.

Cao Bangfu looked up at the starry sky, speechless, but when he turned around, his eyes were sharp, he glared at a young man dressed as a scholar beside him, and said hatefully: "Xu Wenchang, it is difficult to find the traces of the Japanese at this time, what should I do?" Do you have a plan? ”

This young man is Xu Wei, a genius of the Ming Dynasty, with a long character and writing, an old man in Qingteng, a Taoist priest in Qingteng, etc., who calls himself a "person from the south and the north", a native of Shanyin, Shaoxing Prefecture, and a famous writer, calligrapher and painter, opera artist, and military strategist in the Ming Dynasty. Xu Wei is versatile, unique in poetry, drama, calligraphy and painting, and is known as the "Three Talents of the Ming Dynasty" together with Xie Jin and Yang Shen.

Xu Wei was very casual and informal, and said with a smile: "The Japanese are exhausted, and they will never dare to resist our official army, and they will not be able to hide near the mountains and forests for a short time, but the forest is deep and leafy and difficult to find, so we can only wait here, and there is no other way." ”

Although Xu Wei's strategy of war is strong, he is also quite helpless in the face of poverty.

"You can figure out how to wait for the rabbit? Will this wait until the Year of the Monkey? Cao Bangfu was indignant, gritting his teeth and looking very hideous under the torch: "Aren't you known as a scheming matchless? ”

Xu Wei completely ignored Cao Bangfu's verbal attack and continued to be debauched: "Lord Cao, don't be impatient, this gang of Japanese robbers has been pursued everywhere by our official army, and they have long been exhausted and have nowhere to escape. ”

Cao Bangfu snorted coldly: "Wen Chang, you have also participated in the battles of Keting, Gaobu, Gongshan and other places, and you are often full of tricks, why is there nothing to be done this time, this is not like your style!" ”

The dissolute Xu Wei was finally speechless, and the sorrow and helplessness of 'Xiucai meets a soldier, and it is unreasonable to explain' is deeply engraved on the white skin............

In the distance, the footsteps were hurried, through eagerness and excitement, Cao Bangfu's heart moved, and he turned around at the same time as Xu Wei.

"Report, there is a man and a woman in front who ask to see him, saying that he has just escaped from the camp of the Japanese invaders, then.... The woman claimed to be the granddaughter of Xu Guogong in Nanjing, and she did not dare to make decisions without permission, and she had brought the two to ..........."

"What? Wan'er? Before his subordinates finished speaking, Cao Bangfu had already shown the appearance of a crumbling wine man, and His Royal Highness the county lord was held hostage by the Japanese Kou, which is a big deal, fortunately, the county lord and noble Fuhou did not make a mistake, or .......... I can't think about it..........

"Please, please......."

said 'please', Cao Bangfu didn't wait for the invitation, he was already impatient to rush forward, regardless of whether it was His Royal Highness the county lord, he did the etiquette first.

Xu Wan was very gentle, and she was very unhappy with Cao Bangfu's running all the way, and before he ran over, she hurriedly greeted him, a little sadness flashed on her smiling face, the corners of her mouth moved, and two lines of tears fell.

"Uncle Cao, niece Wan'er is here."

Cao Bangfu was stunned for a moment, two lines of turbid tears ran down his cheeks, and gently helped Xu Wan up, but he couldn't cry anymore, and asked eagerly: "Wan'er, why aren't you in the Guogong Mansion?" How did you get kidnapped by the Wokos? How did you escape from the camp of the Japanese Invaders? ..........”

Xu Wanbei came from it, choked up and intermittently narrated the matter...... Among them, he pointed to Zhang Mingyuan again and again, telling him that he had to rescue him to escape.

The more Cao Bangfu listened, the more sad he became, and a cool breath rushed up his back, and he was shocked by the fear that he would be embarrassed, this is the daughter of the prince! If she has three longs and two shorts, not to mention that the prince will not be angry with him, even her conscience will not go! Xu Wan grew up watching by herself, how could she have any mistakes?

Turning around, Cao Bangfu saw the polite Zhang Mingyuan bowing to him, and nodded approvingly to him in thanks.

After settling down, Cao Bangfu gently stroked Xu Wan's hair and comforted: "Wan'er, don't cry, it's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”

"I wonder where the widows are now? His Royal Highness the Lord of the County is requested to make it clear. Xu Wei hates this kind of crying after farewell reunion, and he is free and uninhibited by nature, and he pays attention to a smile and sadness.

Cao Bangfu stopped sobbing and stared at Xu Wan quietly, it was obvious that he was also interested in this topic.

Xu Wan stopped crying, looked at Zhang Mingyuan, and told her to be honest, let her say that it was okay to say what happened, but where was the widow? That's not her specialty.

Zhang Mingyuan didn't hold his fist, he was uninhibited and uninhibited in his rough breath, and smiled: "The humble position is Zhang Mingyuan, the deputy of the Thousand Households of Guanhaiwei Longshan, and I am willing to lead the way in front of the head and exterminate the Japanese Bandits." ”

"You are Zhang Mingyuan?" Exclamations from the side followed.

"Hehe....."

It seems that the fame is known all over the world, and Zhang Mingyuan is so happy that the chicks peck the rice and nod again and again, completely constructing a 'chick smile pecking rice map'.

Xu Wei was even more surprised, hula rushed over, pulled Zhang Mingyuan to look left and again, his sharp eyes seemed to see through, and his hands were not idle, pinching his face for a while, touching his chest for a while, and knocking his head for a while....... Don't forget to comment on it.

"Well, muscular, in line with the legend of Kongwu's strength." Xu Wei admired.

"The face is handsome, on par with me, and seems to be slightly better than me." Xu Wei was a little lost.

"I just can't see what is in my head............ Xu Wei was very disappointed, and inadvertently glanced at the steel knife in the waist of the sergeant next to him, and his expression was very similar to the allusion of Hua Tuo's opening of the skull to take things if he didn't agree with him.

After speaking, he didn't forget to send Zhang Mingyuan a warm invitation in the hope that he could be identified.

Zhang Mingyuan is going crazy........

What virtue does this man have?

"Stop, stop." Zhang Mingyuan was furious, he was a dignified deputy thousand-household, why was he also a department-level cadre, just being touched around like this, where was the official authority?

Nima .........

The mild-mannered Zhang Mingyuan suddenly wanted to scold the street.

Xu Wei was stunned and stopped, pursed his lips and twitched, obviously regretting the other party's incomprehensible amorous feelings, and wanted to play a few words, but after comparing the height difference between the two sides, he hated it.

Cao Bangfu's face turned green, this guy's stinky problem has been made again........

What virtue does Xu Wei have, can he not know? When you see something strange, you can lean up, whether it's a person or an object, you can show great interest. Last year, a family in Nanjing raised a sow with dystocia, after Xu Wei learned the news, he boasted about how deep his medical skills were, and he could cure it, and the family was also convinced of it and was relieved to hand it over to Xu Wei for treatment. As a result, Xu Wei had a heavy hand, so he forced the sow to open her intestine and break her belly, and finally died of massive abdominal bleeding....... Xu Wei didn't think so, and shamelessly thought that the sow had too much pig food in her belly, which affected the normal performance of his medical level......... So Lord Cao didn't know how much effort it took to make the people give up the idea of beating people, and now ........

stepped forward, arched his hand, and gave a salute, Cao Bangfu twitched his cheeks, extremely embarrassed: "..... Ahem, don't blame Master Zhang, this is Xu Wei Xu Wenchang, a proper talent, poetry and songs, astronomy and geography are all fine, especially in the postpartum care of sows........ "After the embarrassment, his tone was flat, and he didn't forget to ridicule Xu Wei's medical level.

Xu Wei was accustomed to it and didn't mind, pinching his nose with one hand, the expression on his face was as if he had been fed a mouthful, and he almost spit it out on the spot.

"Damn........ Ahem, you are Xu Wei Xu Wenchang, who was called the 'Three Talents of the Ming Dynasty' by the world five hundred years later? This time it was Zhang Mingyuan's turn to be embarrassed, and he arched his hand, extremely pious and shocked: "I was offended just now, and I also invited Xu Caizi Haihan." ”

Xu Wei was surprised: "Five hundred years later? How do you know my name? ”

Zhang Mingyuan's eyes widened, completely ignoring the other party's question, and muttered to himself in distraction: "I didn't expect to bump into a Ming genius here, it's an honor to be touched by him!" ....”

Xu Wei, although he is a literati, is proficient in the art of war, literature, and poetry, and is an unborn genius. A few years later, he was about to become Hu Zongxian's staff, and he repeatedly made strange plans, almost single-handedly eliminating the Japanese leaders Xu Hai and Wang Zhi, and later taught Li Rusong, the son of Li Chengliang, the governor of Liaodong, the art of war, and achieved a generation of famous generals..........

The person in front of him turned out to be a famous genius in China.

Zhang Mingyuan stared at it for a long time, and suddenly his expression was solemn, and he bowed to Xu Wei with a long salute.

The talented man is uninhibited, although he doesn't understand why Zhang Mingyuan is so heavy-handed, but Xu Wei accepts it calmly, waving his hand in a chic manner, revealing a charming talented demeanor, obviously very satisfied with the big face given by the other party, how can I think of a guy surnamed Cao, who regards the pearl as a broom......

After a while, Xu Wei tore off the label of a talented man, and immediately immersed himself in the other party's deformed response, and the rather fresh word 'slot' had aroused his strong desire for knowledge.

"Well said, well said...... I don't know what Brother Mingyuan just said about ''? Xu Wei blinked his standard Danfeng eyes, and his eyes were shining stars.

“....... Ahem, this ...... It means 'hello'. Zhang Mingyuan looked shy and talked nonsense casually.

Xu Wei's desire for knowledge was obviously contrary to the serious atmosphere at that time, and it also conflicted too much with Lord Cao's desire to suppress thieves, so Lord Cao couldn't help it, Tie Qing glared at him fiercely, arched his hand towards Zhang Mingyuan, and interjected: "If Lord Zhang can lead the team, it is really a blessing for the people of Zhejiang, without further ado, please let Master Zhang lead the way." ”

As if on the verge of amnesty, Zhang Mingyuan nodded, and resolutely turned his head and left.

Damn the Woko, tremble!

I will definitely break your corpses into ten thousand pieces, and there will be no chickens and dogs.

Behind him, there was the sound of Cao Bangfu's excited and joyful gathering of people and horses, and the sound of the team gathering quickly....... There is also a cry of infinite curiosity.

", Brother Mingyuan........."
