Chapter 7: Brotherhood (|) - Master Wang

The brother and sister first went to visit their frightened aunt. Chen Yuan comforted his aunt for a while, left his sister to accompany him, and returned to the lobby by himself.

remembered the two leaders who came at noon, and ordered Zheng Daniu to go to the dock first to take Zhao Zhong and Zhao Yong to the regiment headquarters.

"My lord, those people have been driven out of the village." Chen Yong and Chen Lin walked in and reported. Chen Yuan nodded.

"My lord, in this way, the county lieutenant Shi will not be reconciled, and will definitely take revenge for personal gain, what should we do?" Chen Yong said worriedly.

"What are you afraid of, if he wants to retaliate, he must have that ability. With our patrol and security team, and those officials and township soldiers in the county come together, we can also let them come and go. Chen Lin was a big man, without the slightest worry.

"You know how to fight, kill, kill! After all, County Lieutenant Shi is directly in charge of us. In case another patrol is sent over..."

This is indeed the most likely means to be taken by the county lieutenant Shi, and the estuary inspection is just a small official, and it is up to the county to decide whether to stay or not.

"Don't worry. Chen Lin has a point. This world is busy and chaotic, and the court may be gone one day. Even if he is a county lieutenant. Chen Yuan waved his hand and said: "The most important thing now is to rapidly increase our strength, as long as we have strength, not to mention the small place of Hekou, that is, Lead Mountain, Xinzhou and Jiangnan, we can all talk and count." ”

In Chen Yuan's memory, when the Yuan army was approaching the city of An, the Great Song Dynasty court begged for grandson, and in order to save his life, the Empress Dowager Xie led the little emperor to surrender. As for the little emperor of Yashan after that, Lu Xiufu and Zhang Shijie, who were unwilling to die in the country, made it up.

Last year, the Yuan soldiers had occupied Jiankang, and then waved their troops south, fighting with the Song army in the areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Now, it is estimated that the army has come to Lin'anfu. Now the old men in the state and county are worried about their future, so they shouldn't have the time to pay attention to themselves.

"My lord, you mean that this court is about to disappear? Then do we still want to go to King Qin of Lin'an Mansion? Chen Yong exclaimed, Chen Yong was convinced of some of the judgments of this adult.

"Be prepared first, and then talk about it according to the situation. Lin'an, Lin'an, this is the temporary settlement place of the official family of the Great Song Dynasty, maybe, the official family of the Great Song Dynasty will come to our land? Chen Yuan said with a smile.

Some things are hard to say, if the historical car goes down according to the original track, it won't be long before the little prince of the Great Song Dynasty will run to Fujian to claim the emperor, and it will be separated from the lead mountain by Wuyi Mountain.

This Song Dynasty monarch and minister are also absolutely amazing. It is far from the bloody nature of the later emperors who "do not pay money, do not cut the land, do not call ministers, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies".

fought the Khitan, cut the land, lost money, and paid the New Year's coin; If you can't beat the Tangut people, you will cut the land, lose money, and pay the New Year's coin; can't beat the Jurchens, they still cut the land, lose money, and pay the New Year's coin; Now they are still doing this to the Mongols, but the Mongols don't agree, they even want all the people and things.

Insiders are insiders, outsiders are outsiders. Brutal suppression at home, bending the knee to survive externally, it is really not possible, surrendering to surrender, fleeing to escape, no king has the eggs to face the enemy, how can he expect those dignitaries who are full of etiquette and morality, and who are advocated by men and women in their womb to resist Meng Yuan's soldiers!

Hmph, calling on the subjects of the whole country to be diligent to the king, how many subjects responded? There were only a few nerds such as Wen Tianxiang, who scattered their wealth and recruited thousands of people to run away, but as a result, they were down, not to mention, and thousands of lives were killed.

To be a person like Wen Tianxiang, Chen Yuan would never agree. Admire its integrity, but do not approve of its practices. To be loyal, to save not the weak and rotten Great Song Dynasty, but the Chinese people under the Mengyuan butcher's knife.

"Now that the Mongol army is heading south, the imperial court soldiers will be frightened and will collapse at the first touch, and the officials who are greedy for life and afraid of death will return to the wind. Do you say that with the remnants of the imperial court, can you stop the Mongols and defend Lin'an City? Chen Yong said lightly.

"Difficult. This Mongolian is fierce, even the iron-clad Xiangyang City has been defeated, and Lin'an has no danger to defend, how can it stop the Mongols. I think the court will either surrender or flee by boat. Chen Yong thought for a while.

This Lin'an is close to the sea, and it is most convenient to go to sea by boat along the river.

Chen Yuan nodded. Femdom is still effective these days. Chen Yong, a dog-legged and thug, will finally use some brains. The Great Song Dynasty took these two roads at the same time. Under the city of Lin'an, Empress Dowager Xie took the little emperor out of the city to surrender, and a few ministers who did not give up, Lu Xiufu, Chen Yizhong, and Zhang Shijie ran away by boat with the two little princes.

This is not the first time that the Great Song Dynasty has done this. More than 100 years ago, the Jin soldiers crossed the hippo, Song Huizong father and son surrendered as prisoners, Zhao Gou ran all the way to Lin'an, and even ran to the sea by boat. Now the monarchs and ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty must have fought this idea.

"My lord, this Mongolian is so fierce, what should we do, we have few people, and we are definitely not opponents." Chen Yong was very worried.

"The Mongols are fierce, but they are not invincible. Hate only those who hate the court from top to bottom. From the emperor to the ministers, they are greedy for life and afraid of death. The Mongols were weak and incompetent, surrendered on their knees, became traitors, killed their fellow clansmen, worked harder than anyone else, and was more ruthless than anyone else.

The real Mongols, together are less than a million, not to mention the northern Han people, we southerners, there are tens of millions, not to mention fighting, just spitting and drowning them. Dozens of people fight one person, and there is no reason why you can't win. Now it's critical to attract more people to join us. Liu Yuan patiently taught. These two people are their own team, and they must not have Tartar phobia.

"What the adults said is, let's go and recruit more people." Chen Yong and Chen Lin also felt the urgency of the situation.

"It's not in a hurry, recruiting people, no food, no drink, no knives, no guns, no training. We have been prepared for more than a year, and we are not afraid of them Mongols. If it really doesn't work, just drill in the mountains, can he Mongolians still ride into the mountains? ”

"Well, my lord, what do you say, our brother will do it, go up the knife mountain, go down to the sea of fire and never frown. Our brother's life is the adult's. "Chen Yong and Chen Lin hugged their fists.

"Good. Good brothers! From now on, we will be brothers in life and death. There is a way that brothers are of the same heart, and its benefits are gold. As long as we are sincerely united, why worry about not being able to achieve great things. Chen Yuan encouraged.

"Brothers are of the same heart, and their profits are golden." Chen Yong and Chen Lin shouted in unison.

Looking at the excited two, Chen Yuan's heart moved, and said: "At the moment, our strength is still small, let's get to know more brothers and work together." In this way, for the convenience of doing things in the future, let's secretly set up a group club, called the "Brotherhood", and the people who join are all brothers in life and death with the same aspirations. It all started with the three of us. ”

"My lord is saying that we will set up a group meeting with the Mingjiao of the vegetable eater?" Chen Yongdao.

All kinds of secret groups in the south of the Yangtze River are prevalent, and there are various names, the most famous and secret is the Ming Sect that the imperial court spares no effort to crack down on and is demonized as the devil. In another time and space, under the influence of Mr. Jin Yong, in a certain time and space, Mingjiao can be described as a household name.

Since the Song Dynasty moved south, Jiangxi, Fujian and other places have had many uprisings of Mingjiao organizations, that is, Xinzhou, and there have also been uprisings of Mingjiao such as Wang Nianjing and Huang Zeng.

"But, neither of us has participated in this thing, so I don't know how." In the eyes of Chen Yong and the others, it is obvious that the people in front of them are preparing to do something, and if they want to do something, they naturally have to learn from those demons.

"Hehe, let's not engage in those Shinto things." Chen Yuan smiled, and then said solemnly: "The Mongols are about to hit our doorstep, they will rob our property and bully our mother-in-law and sister-in-law." Under the Mongols, we were not as good as animals. Our brotherhood is to gather like-minded people who are unwilling to be slaves, and who want to survive under the hooves of the Mongols, regardless of who they are, as long as they are willing to fight with the Mongols, unite him, work with the Mongols, and drive the Mongols back to the northern steppe. ”

"Okay, count me in." A deep voice sounded on the back wall of the hall, startling the three people who were planning to make trouble, and Chen Yong subconsciously wanted to pull out the sharp knife on his waist. Chen Yuan stretched out his hand and stopped him. In the Chen family, there are no assassins yet.

Before the words fell, the back door of the hall limped out of an old man in Tsing Yi with gray hair and a long and thin face, but it was the Chen family's tent, Master Wang.

Wang Fuzi is the old tent of the Chen family, has no children and no daughters, and has a disability in his right leg. Chen Yuan didn't know how many years he had been in the Chen family, but he had always won the trust of Chen Million and was in charge of all the accounts. After Chen Million, Chen Yuan was in charge, and Master Wang was as dedicated and responsible as ever.

"The owner forgives the guilt, Wang didn't intend to listen, but he heard that the owner came back, and he wanted to report some things to the owner, and he heard the conversation between the owner and the Chen brothers, and couldn't help but speak, disturbing everyone in the owner's house, and asking the owner to punish him." Master Wang stepped forward and bowed to Chen Yuan.

"There is something in my Chen family that can be hidden from Master Wang. What a sin the Master? Chen Yuan said with a smile.

"Thank you, owner." Wang Fuzi hugged his fists and thanked him, and then his words changed, "The concept of the owner's brotherhood, Wang agrees very much, I don't know if I can join?" ”

"Oh, why did Madame Wang join the Brotherhood?" Chen Yuan asked. This is also the first person to apply for membership in the establishment of the brotherhood, so naturally it has to be carefully examined.

"Didn't the proprietor say that as long as you are willing to fight hard with the Mongols, you can join the association? Although the old man dragged on a remnant of his life, he also wanted to fight with those beasts and beasts in Mongolia, I wonder if the owner dislikes it? Wang Fuzi said, mentioning that the Mongols were clucking their teeth.

"Naturally, I don't dislike it. Wang Fuzi can participate, but Chen can't ask for it. Chen Yuan smiled, "But I don't know what enmity the prince has with the Mongols?" ”

"Don't hide it from the owner, Wang's leg is caused by those beasts. One family was also killed by the Mongols. Master Wang's eyes flushed.

"Come, Master, sit down and speak slowly." Chen Yong stepped forward and helped Master Wang into the Hu chair on one side.

After sitting down, Mrs. Wang sniffed, calmed down, and said, "I always thought that the tears had dried up and my heart was dead. It made the owner and the Chen brothers laugh. ”

"There is a saying that since ancient times, heroes have not shed tears, but they have not yet been sad. What happened to Master Wang must be extraordinary. Chen Yuandao.

"The proprietor is right. Wang was originally a native of Enping Mansion, but after the Jin people attacked the Song Dynasty, he became a Jin man. I went to school, but after returning to gold, I had no intention of pursuing a career in public office, so I only taught some children in a private school in my hometown to make a living. There is an old mother in the family, a wife, two sons and two daughters, two younger brothers, the eldest brother was conscripted and died in the battle of Song and Jin, and the younger brother got married and said goodbye. Life is quite rich.

Fifteen years ago, the Mongols attacked gold and occupied Enping Province, and the disaster began. The village was plundered by the Mongols, many of them were killed, taken captive, looted, and houses burned.

Fortunately, my brother and I hid in the wilderness and survived, but our belongings were lost, and it was difficult to survive when we came back. Unexpectedly, the village became the domain of a certain Mongol nobleman, and the Mongols drove all the surviving people into the wilderness and were not allowed to take anything with them. No clothes, no food, how to live. My brother had a dispute with some people and went up to argue, and the Mongols swung a knife and hacked my brother to death. Then he laughed loudly, let the horses and began to slaughter the whole village. It's like a hunt. In their eyes, we are not people, we are yellow sheep, we are wild boars! When Master Wang said this, he closed his eyes, and tears poured out of the corners of his eyes.

After a long time, Master Wang wiped his eyes, and continued, "I don't know if it's lucky or not. In the midst of the chaos, I was knocked unconscious by a war horse. When I came from the pile of dead people, it was as if my whole body was falling apart. Three ribs were broken, and the right leg was trampled off by a horse. The family was also missing, and there were dead bodies everywhere, some of them naked, and their stomachs were dissected. Some pregnant women had their babies cut out and were also slashed.

Somehow, I really wanted to live. I didn't have the strength to find my family's body, so I kept crawling forward. There were dead people everywhere, who had not eaten and fainted, but who were really hungry, and gnawed on the flesh of the dead bodies like wild dogs. ”

Hearing Wang Fuzi talk about gnawing corpses, the three of them suddenly felt that the hall suddenly became gloomy.

Wang Fuzi grinned at Bai Sensen's teeth and said with a smile: "Dongjia, I know that I am not a human anymore, I am a ghost and a beast, but I just want to survive and gnaw the flesh of the tartars." ”

"Alas, people in troubled times are not as good as dogs, and Master Wang doesn't have to care." Chen Yuan sighed.

"I didn't care about anything, I just wanted to live." Wang Fuzi smiled and said, "After two days and two nights of crawling like this, I found a dilapidated and uninhabited village. Fortunately, he also found some food, so he hid in the village to recuperate. After a month like this, everything was fine except for the broken leg. So I left the village and wandered about. ”
