"I remember you, you are Wang Sheng's subordinate."

Chen Wen was referring to a thin teenager among these people, this young man was the first shy boy to call out to him when he entered the mountains and encountered Wang Sheng, and the last gatekeeper who was brought into the game by his rhetoric when he got out by playing a video on his mobile phone that night.

It's just that as soon as Chen Wen said this, even the young man's companions hurriedly moved their bodies to distance themselves from him, looking at the young man in horror and resentment, as if they didn't know him, and the soldiers under Chen Wen's command drew their knives in their hands one after another, ready to chop the young man into meat sauce after Chen Wen's order.

"Chen, General Chen, the villain used to be indeed a subordinate of Wang Sheng's dog thief, but now it is not."

Hearing the young man's defense, Chen Wen suddenly realized two questions: first, he didn't see the young man again after that night, how did the young man know his identity, and second, when the young man called Wang Sheng, he didn't use the honorific title of Dashuai as he did at the beginning, but added the suffix "that dog thief" after calling him by his name, what happened here?

"Do you know Bensho?"

"Back to General Chen, the villain does know you, and I have heard you talk about the ancient times in the village under Dalan Mountain." The young man was quite calm, although the knotted tongue and evasive gaze still revealed the fear in his heart, but the answer was quite appropriate, and it made Chen Wen have one more question.

Has this boy heard me talk about the ancients?

I'm afraid there are some hidden secrets in this.

Chen Wen took the young man to the clean place next to him, and then asked, "It's not strange that you know Ben Jiang, but you said that you have heard Ben Jiang talk about the ancients, what is going on?" ”

Hearing this, I saw that the young man hesitated for a moment, but still said the answer that Chen Wen wanted to get.

"Back to General Chen, after you got out with a clever plan that day, the villain and a few colleagues were ordered to return to Xue Ao. A few days later, Wang Sheng's dog thief also returned to Xue Ao, and he was reprimanded by Feng Shilang......"

"A few days later, the villain heard the second brother of the Xia family mention that the dog thief was defeated by the general's clever plan again, and was punished by Wang Jingluo in public......"

Coup?

Chen Wen's two escapes, one was won by relying on the high-tech products of the 21st century, and the other was purely a battle of trapped beasts forced into a desperate situation.

During the few days of recuperation on the mountain, Chen Wen never heard anyone mention Wang Sheng, not only Wang Yi, who was the benefactor, did not mention it, but even Lu Lao Langzhong, Hu Er, and the general manager who guarded the door did not mention this person.

has grace but does not ask for anything in return, although Chen Wen is not very clear why Wang Yi is defensive against him, but this person's discipline still makes Chen Wen feel embarrassed.

"After Wang Sheng's dog thief came back, he ordered the second brother of the Xia family to select some people to go to the vicinity of Dalan Mountain, preparing to wait for the opportunity to assassinate the general when the general left the range of Dalan Mountain alone, and those people included villains."

Assassination?

It turned out that Wang Sheng had such a plan, and in the few days that Chen Wen and Wang Sheng got along, they also knew something about this person. Not to mention, he also held a grudge, so he wondered how this guy could have lost his news after he entered the old nutrition disease in Dalanshan. It wasn't until this moment that he knew that this Wang Sheng had been trying to kill him!

At this moment, Chen Wen's anger seemed to burn him, but there was no joy after ordinary people were lucky enough to get out of the catastrophe.

Hearing this, Chen Wen laughed angrily. "Ben Jiang didn't leave Dalan Mountain, but there were many times when he was alone during that time, didn't he pay attention to it?"

"The villain has paid attention to this matter, such as General Chen, you go to the town to buy some things, or find some familiar ......"

"Then why not do it?"

The boy sighed. "The villain has heard you talk about the ancients, and thinks that you are not like Wang Sheng's dog thief said at the time, and you will be a Tatar worker, so the villain told the second brother of the Xia family about this, and after hearing this, the second brother of the Xia family also felt that it really did not seem to be like that, so he sent people back to tell Wang Sheng that the dog thief had no chance, and then you were promoted to a guerrilla in Dalanshan, and Wang Sheng's family gave up this plan after hearing about it."

It turns out that this is the case, when Chen Wen was talking to this young man, he always paid attention to his eyes and some body movements, just like when he identified Chen Fugui's lie in the first place, he has been using scientific means to distinguish the truth from the false while talking.

During this time, the young man's behavior was normal, and all his body movements and eyes showed that he was recalling rather than making up, which also made Chen Wen begin to believe this person's words a little.

It's just that Chen Wen didn't know that he borrowed the video file played on his mobile phone to get out that day, and the young man actually didn't go down completely, and even looked back after he left. It's just that Chen Wen said before that "say more and make more mistakes, say less and make fewer mistakes, and don't say it's good" made him deeply moved, so he didn't make a fuss, and later didn't tell anyone about it, including the second brother of the Xia family in his mouth.

"It seems that Ben will also thank you and the man surnamed Xia?"

"The villain doesn't dare."

"Just because you don't dare doesn't mean that others don't dare, since the guy surnamed Xia was sent to ambush the general, then he must have seen the general. If Ben General guessed correctly, it should be the dog-legged officer who followed Wang Sheng at that time, right? ”

The word dog-legged officer really stunned the young man for a moment, but after he reacted, a look of anger immediately appeared in his expression.

It really seems to be him.

In the days when he was held hostage by Wang Sheng, Chen Wen noticed that the dog-legged officer took good care of the young man. With a simple method of agitation, Chen Wen got the answer he wanted.

"Why is it only you here, the one surnamed Xia?"

"Second brother of the Xia family." As he spoke, the young man bit his lower lip, as if he didn't want to make some sound that he didn't think he should make, but the tears in his eyes had already expressed his inner feelings.

"The second brother of the Xia family is dead, and the second brother of the Xia family was killed by Wang Sheng's dog thief......" The young man could no longer suppress the grief in his heart, squatted on the ground, covered his face and cried.

When Chen Wen asked, he learned that the young man and the so-called second brother of the Xia family were both from Xinchang, and they were villagers from the same village. The officer surnamed Xia was the child king of the same village when he was young, and he was very popular. Later, the Qing army occupied Xinchang, and the Green Battalion soldiers did evil in the village, and the officer surnamed Xia led a group of partners to attack and kill the Green Battalion soldiers on the way back, and then went to Siming Mountain to oppose the Qing Dynasty.

The officer surnamed Xia has followed several leaders of the rebel army, but like Lou Jiye, in that era when the rebel army was spinning and disappearing, there was only one who came and went to change the owner. However, his luck was not bad, at least stronger than Lou Jiye, and he was not nicknamed "Lu among the people" or the like, so he joined Feng Jingdi's army, and later followed Wang Sheng's command.

Wang Shengmi ordered him to find an opportunity to ambush Chen Wen, he originally took some of his subordinates to move into the southern town according to the military order, but Chen Wen did not intend to leave Dalan Mountain during that time, so they did not have the right time. Later, Chen Wen talked about the ancients, and they didn't know it at first, but after talking about it a few times, almost everyone knew about the left and west of Dalan Mountain, so that this young man listened to Chen Wen talk about the ancients.

Although Chen Wen's ancient content involves many dynasties, it is all based on the theme of the Han hero's sweep of the barbarians, because he was mainly to select some people who have a deep understanding of Yixia's defense to go south to Fujian with him, but he didn't expect that he would inadvertently get rid of Wang Sheng's conspiracy here, and it can be regarded as an unintentional willow.

The officer didn't choose to assassinate Chen Wen, Wang Sheng didn't say anything at first, after all, killing Chen Wen near the left side of Dalan Mountain didn't make it obvious that he Wang Sheng wanted to give Wang Yi a horse, this is not a joke. It was only in the later competition that Wang Sheng became much more alienated from this officer whom he originally admired after seeing the combat effectiveness of Chen Wen's department.

Wang Sheng decided to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, and on the eve of the decisive battle, he had tried to unify the hearts of his subordinates, but when everyone was frightened by his intimidation, this officer, who had always been very respectful, would take the lead in fierce opposition and urge Wang Sheng to give up this idea, so he was killed by Wang Sheng's family members along with other opponents. And this young man got up that night, happened to see this scene, and escaped, and later mixed with these people and walked together.

It seems that the second question just now does not need to be asked.

"What's your name?"

"Back to General Chen's words, the villain is called Yu Li."

"What two words?"

"The second brother of the Xia family said that it was the two words with the fewest strokes."

Yu Li?

There are really few strokes of this name, only one more stroke than Xu Wenqiang's younger brother Ding Li, which is enough to save ink.

"I see."

Chen Wen used all the methods he knew to test whether the boy was lying, and the answer was that none of them were lies. Originally, when he remembered that this person was Wang Sheng's subordinate, Chen Wen's murderous intent had risen, but since this young man was no longer Wang Sheng's subordinate, his murderous intent was not as heavy as before.

Looking at this young man, Chen Wen recalled the second brother of the Xia family in the young man's mouth. He never imagined that the dog-legged officer who was pretending to be a tiger in front of him and groveling to Wang Sheng would be killed because he opposed the surrender of the lord, which made him feel a little ridiculous, especially after Chu Suxian, the corrupt official absconded with the silver, even more so today.

Chen Wen thought about it, and it seemed that he was still misled by some black-and-white thoughts in his previous life. As a time-traveler, he looked at the ancients from the point of view of the future generations, which was obviously wrong.

There are many historical books in this era, mainly the "History of the Ming Dynasty" of the Qing Dynasty, but there are not only two legends of loyalty and treachery, but also many views that fundamentally adhere to the meaning of the slave chieftain Hongli and the subjective opinions of the historians.

Yuan Mao's controversy is not mentioned for the time being, only talking about He Tengjiao, a "loyal minister". Hongguang was subject to Zuo Liangyu; During the Longwu period, the loyal battalion was squeezed out, and the stragglers were recruited as descendants to cause a greater burden on the people, and there was no ability to general, which led to the warlord division of Liu Chengyin and others, and when the Qing army entered Fujian, he was even more yang Fengyin and did not go to rescue Emperor Longwu; The Yongli Dynasty counterattacked Hunan, and when Quansheng was in the middle of the victory, he instigated Hao Shaoqi to sneak attack Chen Youlong's Ming army to give the Qing army a chance to breathe, and transferred away the almost successful loyal battalion besieging Changsha for merit, completely ruining the strategy of recovering Hunan and aiding Jiangxi, and single-handedly led to his own death.

is such a guy who has not achieved enough and has more than enough failures, and in the end he can also end up with a heroic image trying to turn the tide, I really don't know what to say. It seems that we should still analyze human nature and interests more comprehensively, so as to explore the original intention and analyze the interests and disadvantages more clearly.

"Where are you going?"

"Back to General Chen's words, the second brother of the Xia family is gone, and the villain plans to go back to his hometown to tell his family about his death, and then go home to be filial to his mother."

"Oh."

Even if the murderous intent was gone, Chen Wen didn't plan to let this young man go with him, and gave him some dry food and let him take a detour.

Then Chen Wen tested the remaining few people, but they were all defeated in the Battle of Siming Lake, but they ran relatively fast and were not captured by the Qing army. Most of these people were Xinchang people, but he did not let these people go, but after making sure that these people were not Qing army spies, he put them in the midst of the routs in Dalan Mountain and supervised them.

At this moment, Chen Wen, who continued to move forward to catch up with the retreating team, found that the team had stopped, which made his nerves tense. When he got to the front, the axle of a carriage was broken.

Chen Wen, who breathed a sigh of relief, immediately became furious, according to the regulations, these days of this trip, once there is damage to the carriage and horse, immediately get it to the side to repair, and it is absolutely impossible to block the road and delay the progress of the entire team. The road here is not wide, and seeing that the carriage is blocked on the road, and the cars and horses behind cannot move forward, it is clearly a violation of the regulations.

"Why don't you drag it to the side of the road for repairs?"

Faced with Chen Wen's questioning, the owner of the carriage explained very confidently.

It turned out that the owner of this carriage was an official of the Ming Army of Dalanshan, but he didn't work in the old camp on weekdays. The workmanship of this carriage is not so shoddy, and it is also carrying a daughter of this official's family who has not left the cabinet, how can the female relatives of the family easily see outsiders, especially in this mixed group of refugees, even on weekdays, they are sent to the car by servants to eat, drink and Lazar, and it is naturally inconvenient to come out to meet people at this moment. Therefore, the official asked an in-law who was in front of him to transfer a carriage to facilitate the transfer of the female dependents.

This explanation made Chen Wen even more angry, it is true that the daughters of large families are raised in the deep boudoir in the future, and they will not eat, drink, and sleep in the car in order not to see outsiders, this girl has to stink? Besides, this place is not home, how can there be so many rules on the way to escape, don't you even understand the word "subordination"?

Besides, after the car breaks down, won't it be finished if it is dragged to the side for repairs, why bother waiting for the transferred carriage to be transferred, so that the progress of the whole team will be delayed.

To this extent, Chen Wen decided to reason with this official.

"Master Yan, this trip is not a trip, there may be Tartars chasing after you at any time, I will lead my troops to cover the retreat of the people, in order to prevent the people from being killed by rebels, bandits and Tartars, so this team must not stop and wait for your family to pick people up before going on the road. It is not good to have the right to obey and ask your girl to get out of the car first and go to your in-laws' house on her own, or tow the car to the side of the road for repairs, because your family will delay everyone's speed, right? ”

Chen Wen asked himself to make things very clear, but the official put on a different posture.

"Etiquette cannot be abolished, the right itself is a pretext for those famous and religious scum who do not abide by the etiquette, the old man's daughter is still in the boudoir, how can she see outsiders? Besides, General Chen, you also know that there may be Tartars chasing you, how can you tell my daughter to stay behind? ”

Do you know that the Tartar may be chasing after you, so you can't leave your female dependents behind, so other people's female dependents can stay?

Chen Wen took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, in the face of such a pedantic and selfish guy who was unreasonable, he really didn't know what to say about this official, so he simply issued an ultimatum.

"Ben will not have time to talk nonsense with you, give you two roads, the first one, tow the car to the side of the road for repairs, when it will be repaired and when it will continue on the road; Second, tell your girl to catch up with your in-laws' carriage and horse on her own. If you still don't agree, Lao Tzu asked someone to push you down the mountain with a car, do you believe it or not? ”

Although he was not on the mountain, he had heard some officials he knew about Chen Wen in the past few days, and he had already heard many of Chen Wen's actions since he went up the mountain, and he really lived up to the name of martial arts, especially thinking about Chu Suxian, who was still in the prison car now, and his attempt to kill Liwei that day, which really made him shudder.

Just as he hesitated between propriety and fear, words came from the car to relieve him.

"Father, my daughter can go to her uncle's carriage on her own." So saying, the girl got out of the car with the help of the maid and relieved his father.

After getting out of the car, the girl came over, said a blessing to Chen Wen, and then comforted his father a few words, and walked to the front team with the support of the maid and the old mother.

The girl's voice was very good, although it was covered with a veil to show the difference between men and women, but she could still see the girl's delicate face through the gap in the veil. It seems to be out of psychology, Chen Wen always feels that this girl seems to have a strange smell, which makes him very uncomfortable.

Just seeing that she was still walking very slowly with the support of the maid and the old mother, Chen Wen suddenly realized a problem, this girl was a woman with bound feet.

The pretty figure was still squirming forward, and Chen Wen could understand why her father was so unreasonable even though he knew Chen Wen's temperament. Secretly cursing in his heart for the decadent feudal ideology of mutilating women to satisfy the deformed sexual desires of feudal scholars, Chen Wen had no choice but to instruct craftsmen and people to drag the carriage to the side of the road for repairs to prevent it from continuing to obstruct traffic.

After the car was towed to the side of the road, the horses behind it began to move again, and as the news spread that the official's daughter was leading by example, the bizarre problems began to diminish.

In this way, the thousands of people guarded by the Nantang battalion finally went around a mountain col that was only thirty or forty miles away from the mountain after nearly ten days of travel. But at this moment, the sentinel rider attached to the back came to report, and the Qing army's scouting horses finally discovered the travel of the people who evacuated Siming Mountain in the south.
