Chapter 164: The Four Heroes of Xiangyang
"Yuwen, it's rare to have leisure today, do you want me to drink tea?"
"Who are these four?"
Li Gengyun saw that in addition to Guo Feng, there were four other people who came in with him, all four of them were dressed as scribes, handsome in appearance, and extraordinary in bearing, and they all looked like Sven people.
"Brother Yun, let me introduce you! These four are the local talents of Xiangyang that I have known from the army since I came to Xiangzhou. Guo Feng smiled and introduced Li Gengyun one by one, he pointed to the man in Tsing Yi standing on his left and said, "This is Wang Bin, a native of Linzi in Xiangzhou, who is now temporarily working as a writer in the army." ”
"Bin has seen Mr. Li!"
Wang Bin bowed his hand to Li Gengyun very politely, and at the same time expressed his reverence for Li Gengyun's past deeds: "Mr. Li's name, Bin has admired it for a long time!" ”
"Wang Wenlu is polite! Have a seat! ”
"Thank you!"
"Brother Yun, this is Luo Bo, who is now serving as the superintendent of grain in the army."
"You may be seated!"
"This is Zhang Han, the Sima of another department in the army."
"This is Cao Ji, and he is also Sima of another department in the army."
"You may be seated!"
"Thank you!"
"Wanyu, you go and tell Lao Zhang to get some more refreshments, and I'll talk to a few people about something."
"Hmm!"
After Lin Wanyu heard Li Gengyun's instructions, she nodded, and then left the courtyard and went to the kitchen to prepare refreshments with Lao Zhang.
At this moment, the five of them sat down and sat face to face with Li Gengyun.
"The four heroes of Xiangyang, Gengyun can see it today, it is really a blessing for three lives!"
That's right, what Guo Feng brought over this time were the four heroes of Xiangyang in the original book: Wang Bin, Luo Bo, Zhang Han, and Cao Ji. These four people are highly rated in the original book, all four of them have the talent of governing the country, and when Baili Xi restored the Great Song Dynasty, the four were each assigned to the state capital to serve as the assassin of a state. Not only that, but the military concept and the ability of the four of them to march and arrange the formation are not bad, and the famous Jianghuaikou Battle in the original book was dominated by the four of them. In the battle of Jianghuaikou, the 50,000 army of Xiangzhou united with the 40,000 army of Jiangzhou, and the 180,000 army of the Northern Yuan Dynasty fought a decisive battle at Jianghuaikou, and the 90,000 combined army soldiers were divided into four roads, and two roads lured the enemy to go deeper, ambushed all the way, chased and killed all the way, and finally achieved a great victory, annihilating the main force of the Northern Yuan Dynasty of 100,000 troops, capturing 60,000 puppet troops, and 20,000 troops were nowhere to be found.
At this point, the Battle of Jianghuaikou made the four heroes of Xiangyang famous, and at the same time, it also caused a great injury to the vitality of the Northern Yuan, stopped the pace of expansion to the south, and also provided time for Bailixi to stabilize the situation in the south. After the end of this battle, the strategic deployment of the Northern Yuan to the Southern Alliance changed from the previous strong offensive to the fortified defense.
These four people can not only make contributions in the troubled times, but also have quite achievements in their literary attainments, in the recovery of the Great Song Dynasty in a few years, the poems and articles circulated by the four of them are also the anthologies of war poems respected by later generations, and won the admiration of later generations of students, Xiangyang is to build the "Four Masterpieces Hall" for the four of them, in order to commemorate and worship the exploits made by the four of them for the restoration of the Great Song Dynasty.
But now that Guo Feng brought them here, the four of them have not yet been able to fully exert their abilities, and Li Gengyun also understands Guo Feng's intentions, so he smiled and said to everyone: "The four of them are all talented and knowledgeable, and the four heroes of Xiangyang have long been famous. Drinking tea and eating with all the gentlemen is really an elegant move. Since you're here, let's have dinner in my house tonight and then leave, let's drink and talk, enjoy the wind and the moon! ”
Li Gengyun talked about him left and right, and what he said was nothing more than drinking tea and eating pastries, and then inviting them to stay at night to drink and talk, enjoy the wind and the moon, if this is placed in a peaceful and prosperous era, it is naturally not too much at all. But now the situation faced by Xiangzhou and the Great Song Dynasty can accommodate them to talk and laugh so much.
"I waited until I heard the military advisor tell about Mr. 's deeds, and I admired him very much, so I took the liberty to visit him. If there is a big chaos today, the ambition of the wolf son of the Northern Yuan Dynasty occupies my country and kills my Song and Liu royal family, but Mr. is so comfortable drinking tea and eating at home. Is it peace of mind, sir? ”
What Wang Bin said is the common voice of the four heroes of Xiangyang, they have communicated with Guo Feng, and when they learned about Li Gengyun's talent, they naturally revered it in their hearts, so the four of them asked Guo Feng to introduce them on their behalf, and wanted to talk to Li Gengyun about the general trend of the world. As a result, they came to Li Gengyun's mansion and saw him at his idle home, drinking tea and eating comfortably, completely ignoring the external war and disputes, and suddenly had some doubts about Li Gengyun, who Guo Feng evaluated, thinking that Guo Feng deliberately exaggerated Li Gengyun's ability, and at the same time, he was also a little dissatisfied with Guo Feng's position as a military advisor.
"The unparalleled talent in the world in Guo Junshi's mouth seems to be nothing more than that."
"If the four of them are self-recommended, they are looking for the wrong person. The general is the Bole of the four, and he is only one idle cloud and wild crane below, and he is only for the queen alone. The world is not necessarily Song Liu's, if the destiny of heaven belongs to the Northern Yuan, then I can only ensure the safety of the queen and her family. If the fate of the Great Song Dynasty should not be extinguished, I will be the queen before and after the saddle, and drive the extermination! ”
Li Gengyun said with a smile, and then said to Guo Feng: "Yuwen, it's better to talk less about my affairs in the future." In the past, all of them were just taking advantage of the situation, and now that you are the military advisor of the Xiangzhou Army, what you think should not be limited to this. How much do you have to do in the army, and do you count yourself leaving your post halfway through today? ”
"Yes, Yuwen understands!"
Everyone is a smart person, as soon as Li Gengyun said this, Xiangyang Sijie was speechless, and Guo Feng was even more sweaty after hearing this. He finally understood that Li Gengyun recommended himself to be a military advisor, not only to show his talents, but also to let himself continue to grow. In the past, when he was in Qingfeng Village, he had the feeling that he had never met Huaicai, but now that he was given enough platform, he realized that it was just talk on paper before, but now it is the real actual battle.
His purpose was to recommend Wang Bin and them to Li Gengyun, so that Li Gengyun could discover their respective strengths so that they could play a greater role in the Xiangzhou army. But now, Li Gengyun's feedback to him is very simple, the other party doesn't want to involve power and military politics now, and he won't make any comments if he recommends it to him.
"I'll get it!"
Wang Bin and the others also understood what Li Gengyun meant, the four of them thought that they were not able to meet each other, and in addition to the purpose of the visit, they also wanted Li Gengyun, a person who was deeply trusted by the queen, to help them recommend. But Li Gengyun's answer is very clear, if he wants to go to Fang Tong, he Li Gengyun doesn't care about this. If it's a chatter, then look for him, and he will naturally be hospitable.
"Then bother Mr. Li!"
Wang Bin: They didn't get up and leave after saying this.
"Damn, this is here to eat and drink?!"
Li Gengyun saw that Wang Bin and they had no intention of leaving, but instead sat there and began to talk about some literary content, and he was also shocked: Guo Feng is a drunkard, he can have a common language with Guo Feng, Wang Bin and their alcohol consumption is not bad, this time they are really going to bleed!
