Chapter 67: Teaching the Exercises
Gao Cheng walked up, found a random restaurant and ordered a pot of wine, ostensibly pouring himself a drink, but his ears were collecting some information leaked by the children of the nobles in the restaurant. The situation of the big merchants is only known to these children of nobles or generals.
"Brother Hong, you have made meritorious contributions to the Taishi's expedition to Dongyi this time, and you have been named the commander of a thousand people, which is really worth celebrating!
In the seats not far away, several men in strong suits were drinking, and one of them raised his wine bottle and said to a majestic man sitting at the top.
"Hahaha, okay, brother, I'll drink this one!" the man known as Brother Hong laughed, raised the wine bottle and drank it all. His arms are strong and powerful, he is wearing a brocade robe, a sword hanging from his waist, and his face has a strong killing aura, and he looks like a master in the big merchant army. His strength had already reached the peak of the second order. Vigorous blood and energy. He is indeed qualified to serve as the commander of a thousand men in the merchant army.
After drinking a few glasses with each other, the man who toasted just now said in an envious tone: "Brother Hong's promotion to the head of a thousand people this time is worth celebrating, but the speed of this promotion is far less than that of General Huang Feihu." I heard that he was named King Wucheng by His Majesty because of his meritorious service in this expedition to Dongyi. directly crossed the official position of general and chief soldier, and became the first general in our big merchant army!"
"I also heard the news, and now I want to call General Huang King Wucheng, his official position is higher than the East Bohou and Xi Bohou in the four directions of the town. It can be said that in addition to His Majesty, the Grand Master, and the Prime Minister, King Wucheng is respected!" said another person. It is also a face of envy and jealousy.
"Hey, Your Majesty really looks at King Wucheng differently. King Wu Cheng's current age is only in his thirties. If it takes a little longer, his status may surpass that of the prime minister. Second only to Taishi!"
"Hehe, don't you know that when Your Majesty did not succeed to the throne, he and General Huang worshiped under the Taishi Sect to learn art, and General Huang's sister was still His Majesty's concubine. With these two layers of relationship, coupled with the merits, General Huang deserves to be named King Wucheng!"
These noble children talked to each other about the recent situation of the court, and the biggest thing was that Huang Feihu was named King Wucheng because of his merits. became the top general of the Great Shang Army. It can be said that it is the head of the military attaché. As for Wen Zhong, he is still a qi refiner in essence, and he doesn't care about mundane rewards.
"King Wucheng! Hehe, Huang Feihu's ability is there, but he can be crowned king, mainly because of his sister-in-law and the relationship with Di Xin. The credit is only a secondary reason!"
Gao Cheng said secretly in his heart. In the court of the Great Shang, there are the four generals of the Demon Family who guard the Jiameng Pass. There are also Zhang Guifang, who called his name to dismount, and Kong Xuan, the later chief soldier of Sanshanguan, each of whom surpassed Huang Feihu in strength.
Even Zhang Kui, who was guarding the small county of Michi, was able to kill Tuxingsun and Huang Feihu with his own strength. It can be said that Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is in the Great Merchant Army. Huang Feihu can become the head of the generals, which is a bit unworthy of the name.
However, the name of King Wucheng played a big role when the Great Tribulation of the Gods came. Huang Feihu, as the head of the military generals of the Great Shang, defected to Xiqi, which shocked Xiqi's reputation and caused the morale of the Great Shang army to plummet.
In order to win over Huang Feihu, Ji Fa also named him king. Offered Huang Feihu highly, it was precisely because of such a status and name that after Huang Feihu died in battle, he entered the list of gods and was able to occupy the position of Dongyue Emperor.
Emperor Dongyue is the head of the Three Mountains and Five Mountains, and he also has the authority to rule the Netherlands, and his status is second only to several emperors in the Heavenly Court. Bo Yi Kao was named the Emperor of Ziwei, and Huang Feihu was named the Emperor of Dongyue...... Echoes their position during their lifetimes.
“...... I heard that Yuan Futong of Beihai colluded with the princes of the 72nd Route to rebel, and Taishi is preparing to lead his troops out again, and this is a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions! Brothers, if you want to make meritorious contributions, you can follow Taishi to the north. Wen Taishi has won a hundred battles and has never been defeated, and I don't know how many people will want to join the army when the time comes! You have to seize the opportunity!" the man known as Brother Hong said to everyone in a low voice.
"Beihai Yuan Futong, he dared to rebel?" The people next to him heard the news for the first time, and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.
Brother Hong said: "Who knows what Yuan Futong thinks, but being able to bring the princes of the Seventy-two Roads in the north over can at least prove that his ability is stronger than that of the Northern Bohou!"
"Hehe, Bei Bohou, if it weren't for his ancestors' merits, he would have been able to occupy the position of Bei Bohou? There are a total of 200 princes in the north, and this time he has 72 roads, and there are only more than 100 princes left under him, and his power has instantly weakened by half!"
When these noble children talked about Beibohou Chonghou Hu, there was a trace of disdain in their tones. Chonghou Huwen is not a martial artist, that is, he has a good background, and his ability is at the bottom of the Quartet.
Not far away, Gao Cheng heard them mention Beihai Yuan Futong, and his heart moved. According to what he knew, Wen Zhong's expedition to Beihai to deal with a Yuan Futong actually took fifteen years. He was not in Chaoge, which caused Daji to have the opportunity to enter the palace to confuse Di Xin. There must be a lot of mystery in this.
"But for me, this is an opportunity! Before I came to Chaoge, I wanted to blend in with the Great Merchant Army and become a general of the Merchant Army before Xiqi suffered the Thirty-Three Expeditions. Only in this way, after the Great Tribulation of the Gods begins, I will be able to fish in troubled waters and harvest hundreds of millions of destiny points!"
Gao Cheng thought silently in his heart. Then he listened in the restaurant for a while, and a few people just now began to talk about the affairs of the northern princes, all of which were trivial. After a few moments, he drank down the drink in front of him, then slapped a piece of broken silver on the table, and got up to return to the mansion where he had just settled.
At this time, Yang Jian had already told Yang Tianyou and the others all about what had happened recently. Yang Tianyou's expression was gloomy, the matter had come to this point, and he had no other way but to wait for the Yunhua Fairy to come to meet in Chaoge as agreed in Quezhou City.
......
The next day, early in the morning. A faint ray of sunlight shone from the sky, and there was an open space in the backyard of the mansion, which was simply trimmed and turned into a place to practice fist and foot kung fu.
"Brother Gao, please also teach us the exercises to become stronger!" Yang Jian, Yang Jiao and Yang Chan got up early, came to the martial arts training ground, and bowed down in front of Gao Cheng very respectfully.
Gao Cheng's gaze swept over the three of them, especially Yang Jiao's pause. One sheep is herding, and three sheep are also driving, he promised to teach Yang Jian's brothers and sisters the three exercises yesterday, and he didn't plan to break his promise at this time.
Moreover, Yang Jiao, who had been killed by the Heavenly Soldiers in the original timeline, also brought him a lot of fate points. Gao Cheng wanted to see if Yang Jiao, an unknown person in later generations, could stir up the wind and clouds and bring him a lot of destiny power after being taught by himself.
