Chapter 47: Flickering

Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, which was a major event that could not be ignored in the last years of the Ming Dynasty.

From the perspective of historical trajectory, Yuan Chonghuan's garrison on Juehua Island and the garrison on Maowenlongpi Island were important military layouts to defend against the Houjin invasion.

Yuan Chonghuan cut down Mao Wenlong, although it can be said that he got rid of the moths in the imperial court, but it also cleaned up the last nail for the Houjin invasion of the Ming Dynasty.

For Cheng Ming, these two people don't have a good thing.

Yuan Chonghuan talked a lot, first telling a big lie about five years of Pingliao, and played Emperor Chongzhen around. Later, he colluded with the Liaodong clique, buying and selling, and deceiving the subordinates to embezzle military salaries. He talks about patriotism and loyalty to the monarch every day, but in fact, he doesn't take it to heart at all.

So although he ended up miserable, there were not many people who sympathized with him.

And Mao Wenlong is not a person who is dedicated to the country, he himself has no fame, he can be the overseer of Liaodong, except for the two times he escaped death in the Houjin attack, and there are only a few victories left when the imperial court needs them. And then there is the temperament of the tiger, dare to open his mouth, and can ask for money.

Some people say that he chose Phi Dao because of his talent as a general. In fact, in Cheng Ming's view, this is just a foothold he found when he was defeated and fled.

If it weren't for the fact that Daming regarded him as the last straw to resist the invasion of Houjin, asking for money for money and food for food, he would not have been able to support the pattern of supporting the army and self-respecting.

But he is greedy for money, and he is still a good person.

There is a table of banquets in the back tent, twelve dishes and one soup, the dishes are not very rich, but they are better than the amount and affordability, and there is a heroic style.

There were six or seven people sitting next to each other on a large wooden table, except for Mao Wenlong, there were two people wearing armor, and the rest of the people were wearing civilian clothes. However, looking at their demeanor, the officials are not small.

"Little brother! It's a guest from afar, let's have a drink! ”

Mao Wenlong slapped the table, poured a large bowl of wine, wiped the corners of his mouth, and brightened the bottom of the bowl.

Cheng Ming is still afraid of him? Naturally, after drinking and learning his movements, the bottom of the bowl also lit up, and everyone else cheered in unison.

A person next to him smiled and said: "This little brother looks at the noodles, this time he came over on behalf of the food party, I don't know what the matter is?" ”

"Generals, I misunderstood! I'm not here on behalf of the food club, I'm just a lost person! Cheng Ming clenched his fists: "Dare to ask how the generals are called?" ”

The man who spoke said: "Come, I'll introduce you!" ”

After speaking, he introduced from the right hand side in turn: "Shen Shikui, General Shen, Geng Zhongming, Geng Counselor, Shang Kexi, Shang Dusi, Wang Liangbi, Lord Wang." ”

Then he arched his hand and said: "The last general, Chen Jisheng, leads the general rank!" ”

Good guys, several traitors.

Cheng Ming focused on Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi, these two people are celebrities, whether they are Jurchen or Han, they are never soft when they kill.

"Eating at the same table with all the adults really scares the kid. The adults led the troops to resist the gold, the people were grateful, and the boy was also very impressed, and there was nothing to repay, only three bowls of wine to show a little respect! ”

After speaking, he picked up the wine jar and poured three bowls in succession, and drank it in one go.

Wang Liangbi and the others glanced at each other, feeling that Cheng Ming's speech and demeanor, although he had a certain bearing, was not unusual. Why did Mao Shuai let them accompany him personally?

Chen Jisheng and Mao Wenlong exchanged glances and said, "Come on, come on, eat vegetables, don't just drink!" Little brother, don't look at the people in your food club, eat delicacies from the mountains and seas all day long, I dare to say, you must not have eaten the food here on Phi Island, try the flying dragon soup, hunted in the Jurchen old forest, very rare! And roe deer meat, come on, come on! ”

Cheng Ming said politely, several people staggered, and the atmosphere was a little lively.

After three rounds of drinking, Chen Jisheng said again: "Little brother, my brother doesn't understand something, I want to ask you for advice!" ”

"Don't dare to ask for advice, you can tell me what is going on!"

"Don't blame my brother for speaking straight, the hunters of your food club, why are they so strong, they are all the same as written in the novel, single-handedly entering the battle and killing seven in and seven out, still with no change in face and no injuries. Don't tell my brother, you said, I dreamed of having such a skill, brother. How exactly did you get it? And it came out too suddenly, two years ago, how could there be such a thing? ”

Chen Jisheng had a worried face when he spoke, as if he was distressed that he was useless.

Cheng Ming smiled secretly in his heart, but he didn't break it, still pretending to be a stupid boy, and said in a daze: "You don't know? ”

"Know what?"

Cheng Ming looked at their expressions one by one, sighed, and put down his chopsticks, "It seems that you really don't know, that's okay, I'll tell you, anyway, it's not a secret now!" ”

"You say, you say!"

Cheng Ming stroked his arm, lowered his voice, and posed a little mysterious.

"There are rumors in my food club, when the Yuan Dynasty ravaged the Central Plains, killing countless people, the grandfather rebelled, but he was helplessly besieged by the city, there were strong enemies in all directions, and it was okay to confront each other, but suddenly one day, the surrounding areas united to attack the grandfather together.

In the face of the catastrophe, many strategists were helpless. After all, at that time, there were few soldiers and generals, and the combat power was not high, even if the soldiers used their lives, it was difficult to ensure that they were undefeated with one enemy and two, let alone one enemy and four.

So in order to be able to break the enemy and find a way to live, the great grandfather made a great wish, saying that he was willing to pay any price in exchange for the Han people for 300 years!

Then a strange person came, and after meeting with the grandfather, he put forward a condition.

said that since the great grandfather has the bearing to swallow the world and the determination to drive out the Tartars, he is the best candidate to be the lord of the world, but if he makes a great wish, he must accept the great karma, he can protect the prosperity of the Han family for 300 years, and he can also keep his family on the throne.

If you forcibly interfere with the way of heaven, heaven and earth will have a backlash. Grandpa's bloodline can only be passed down for three hundred years.

When the royal bloodline is cut off, it is the day when the aura of heaven and earth returns to the earth! ”

Mao Wenlong and the others looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

This rod was supported three hundred years ago, and it also hooked the great grandfather, and none of them can evaluate it. But if you want to believe it, it must be!

Cheng Ming was not in a hurry, poured another bowl of wine, put down the bowl and said, "At the end of the seventh year of the Apocalypse." The Apocalypse returned to heaven, the last royal bloodline of the Ming Dynasty had been broken, without the suppression of the royal family, the vitality of heaven and earth began to recover, and the animals and plants everywhere have mutated, all of them look like monsters, and thirty or fifty people can't deal with them!

You may not believe it, but it is recorded in my food club that within two years of the recovery of the vitality of heaven and earth, the change is not much. But two years later, the changes have been absolutely earth-shattering. Now it's only a little over a year, and the largest land beasts are already more than 50 meters tall, and they can roar a city with a roar, and ordinary people want to hunt such fierce beasts, and they don't even have to think about it!
