Chapter 385: Follow the Temptation
It doesn't matter if he turns around, Lu Rongting is really discouraged, and his spirit is in a trance, relying on his thousands of people, except for the military uniform that has not yet dried up and the non-bullet rifle that can only coax people, it is really nothing, it is not a problem to scare away hundreds of bandits and bandits, but when he encounters the regular army, it is nonsense. Seeing the murderous army coming behind him, like a little ghost asking for his life, he was helpless here and could only lead his neck to be cut, the taste of it was really the taste of Huang Lian, and the dignified seven-foot man burst into tears, but the vast majority of them had already cried loudly, Lu Rongting wanted to stop these people from crying, but he couldn't bear it, life and death matters, let them cry happily, what military discipline and majesty are nonsense at this time, after all, it is a violent corpse in this barren mountains and mountains.
"Bang!"
Suddenly there was a gunshot from the front, and an army flashed out in front, Lu Rongting fell to the ground with a bang, and finished speaking, and then his eyes rolled his eyes, and he fainted, Ma Ji saw it and quickly hugged him in his arms, and after detaining people, it was a basin of cold water, and it took a long time for Lu Rongting to relieve his breath, and Ma Ji hurriedly said: "Big brother wake up!" Lu Rongting wailed: "There are chasing soldiers in the back, there is a strong enemy in front, why do you wake me up, brother, my Jin Ge Iron Horse, my grand ambition can only gallop in a dream, why did you wake me up?" ”
"Big brother, we're saved!"
"Are we saved?" As soon as he heard that he was saved, Lu Rongting immediately jumped up from Ma Ji's arms, pulled Ma Ji with his backhand and asked.
Ma Ji stretched out his hand and pointed to the army in front of him and said, "Big brother, listen to this movement, this military song is Lao Tang's ......" Before he finished speaking, his head was split in two from his nose, and hot blood sprayed Lu Rongting's face, but the fishy smell came out of his mouth. The cavalry behind him had already rushed over, surrounded by the angry resistance, desperate struggle, and struggle of the soldiers. Lu Rongting didn't care about what was behind Ma Ji at this time, he didn't hesitate to discard the body of his old brother, shot backhand, and killed the cavalry who rushed to his side, got on his horse, and ran forward while shooting, the army in front saw that the fierce battle between the two sides was only exchanged for a one-sided slaughter, and he couldn't bear to speed up, and took Lu Rongting, who was wounded, and then launched a fierce confrontation with the cavalry troops, the chasing soldiers did not expect to encounter such a strong opponent, and fought hard for a long time, In the end, he was forced to evacuate because of the difference in numbers, but it also left the most tragic confrontation in the Battle of Hengzhou, after a regiment of cavalry fighting, there was only less than a company left when he returned to Hengzhou City.
After Chang Zhenbang became famous, he couldn't help but gasp, and couldn't help but say to Ye Ji: "Tang Jiyao, who is so powerful, came so quickly, it really made me impressed." ”
Ye Ji said with a smile: "Looking around, only Hunan, the land of the north-south battlefield, is the most marketable and the weakest target for the southwest, and this persimmon will naturally be picked up and pinched." ”
"Let Zhang Yunfa lead a cavalry force to chase after him, will Lu Rongting and the others be wiped out?"
Ye Jidao: "Tang Jiyao's army has traveled thousands of miles from Chengdu to Hengzhou, it is still the end of the strong crossbow, and the troops that can be sent to rescue Lu Rongting and repel our Guards Division Cavalry Regiment must be an elite division, but no matter how elite the division is after a fierce battle again after thousands of miles away, it must be without stamina, to put it mildly, Zhang Yunfei went, and a regiment from the Guards Division was enough to clean up these people, but adults would never do it." ”
"Lu Rongting has occupied Guangxi and Hunan for a long time, without him, the southeast army can smoothly take over these places, is this official's head squeezed by the door, let it go to Guangxi, Hunan doesn't want it?"
Ye Ji said casually: "The adult's head is very clear, and he knows that if he wants to get Guangxi, Hunan, these places of the Gui family, this Lu Rongting must not die, as long as he lives, the Gui family is a faction in the southwest, and the relationship between Guangxi and Yunnan is a close comrade-in-arms, but once this Lu Rongting dies, the Gui family will inevitably collapse, and Tang Jiyao can successfully take over Guangxi, Xiangxi and other places. ”
Chang Zhenbang said: "This Lu Rongting deserves to die, he has repeatedly raised troops to rebel in Guangdong and other places, and the harm is widespread, but he can't be captured alive by me in the southeast to correct military law, I really have some regrets, but I don't know if Tang Jiyao will do it?" If he does it, it is wonderful. ”
Ye Jidao: "Eight years ago, Tang Jiyao may have killed Lu Rongting to export his evil anger, but unfortunately eight years later, Tang Jiyao has grown a lot, from the young man who forced Cai Ye to go to Sichuan to a generation of heroes who can even be called lonely and widowed in Kunming like Sun Monkey, my lord, do you think he will kill Lu Rongting now?" He must be given the position of deputy commander of the Southwest Army and enjoy his old age in the Kunming Commander's Mansion. ”
Chang Zhenbang sighed and said: "Since the Republic of China, Duan Qirui, Wang Zhanyuan, Cao Kun, Zhang Zuolin, Lu Rongting, these big figures who were majestic and agitated China in the past have now become angry figures, Duan Qirui dreamed of Tianjin, the Anhui system was defeated, Wang Zhanyuan was overtaken by Sun Chuanfang, Wuchang became a vassal of Xi'an, Cao Sanye's power fell into the hands of Wu Peifu in name only, Zhang Zuolin's main force was defeated, and his strength was greatly reduced I heard that Zhang Xueliang, Guo Songling and others had reformed the military, and they didn't expect it to be this southwest, There are also brave and enterprising people like Tang Jiyao, who are really so delicate and have attracted countless heroes to bend their waists. ”
Ye Jidao: "The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and a new generation replaces the old people, this is human nature, if adults can't even see this, how can they flourish in this ever-changing new era?" ”
Chang Zhenbang said: "Mr. taught me a lesson, for every enemy the official does not dare to underestimate, but the enemy around the southeast is growing too fast, and the southeast is shrinking day by day. ”
Ye Ji said: "There is a sky outside the sky, there are people outside the people, without these heroes and heroes of China, as well as outstanding leaders of foreign countries, if you can't correct your mentality, be proactive, and transform the self-styled southeast generals into the most energetic and energetic place in China, even if you win China after a hundred battles, you will lose to foreign countries." ”
Chang Zhenbang smiled bitterly: "What Mr. taught me is that Zhenbang is deeply sympathetic!" In the era of the Great Beiyang, how prosperous, just because of self-style, unable to adapt to the needs of this era, one for Feng, Duan two factions, and then divided into the direct line, the Jiangxi line, the Feng system and now Xi'an Sun Chuanfang's pickaxe faction, I don't know how much in the future, I believe most of them will be divided from our southeast! If we don't take advantage of the strong power in the southeast now to unify China, do we still have to talk about leaving the flames of war to our children and grandchildren? ”
Ye Ji said: "My lord's opinion is very right, but it is not right!" ”
Chang Zhenbang said: "Why is Mr. so contradictory? ”
Ye Jidao: "As long as there are people, there will be grievances, there are grievances, there will be factions, people are factions, how can you not let factions arise in the southeast, my lord?" I'm afraid that the southeast will be suppressed by adults, and it can't be simply divided into the direct Jiangxi faction like Feng Guozhang's faction, but there will be more and smaller factions. ”
Chang Zhenbang was terrified when he heard this, and said: "What Mr. said is what Zhenbang has been worried about, who knows that Mr. has been broken by his words, presumably Mr. has already had a way to deal with it, and I hope Mr. can teach me!" ”
Ye Ji said: "Factions can't be avoided, only by twisting these small groups into a rope and moving towards a goal, they will naturally work together, and great things can be achieved." ”
Chang Zhenbang thought for a while, and said with a very heavy face: "Then how to twist these small groups into a rope?" How should this goal be set? ”
Ye Ji smiled slightly: "Actually, adults have already done it, but they just didn't realize it!" ”
"It's been done a long time ago?" Chang Zhenbang scratched his head suspiciously, obviously he was not interested in this answer.
Ye Ji said: "If an adult can command thousands of troops, gather thousands of people under his command, and make contributions with adults, can't he gather a few internal factions under his banner?" ”
Chang Zhenbang was stunned for a moment, and after five minutes, he nodded in understanding, and said: "What Mr. said is very true, Zhenbang seems to understand a little, but he doesn't feel that he understands, and he always feels that there is a layer of window paper to cover it, which makes Zhenbang a little dazed!" ”
Ye Ji said: "There is only one emperor, but there are thousands of subjects. There is only one commander, but there are thousands of soldiers, this layer of window paper is very thin, it seems that everyone can pierce it, but how many are really pierced? The so-called master leads the door, and the practice is in the individual. Everything is between the invisibility and the thought of adults. ”
Chang Zhenbang nodded and said, "I hope Mr. will give me some information for reference." ”
Ye Jidao: "There is a general knowledge of governance in the Qing Palace, it is said that it was copied by Sima Guang himself, millions of words without a single typo, another word, can be described as priceless, it is said that now His Majesty the Emperor is forced by the tight cost in the palace, want to sell, if the Lord can buy it with a lot of money, it is excellent to think about it." ”
"Zizhi Tongjian is famous, I have wanted to read it for a long time, but I didn't expect to get what I want today, Zhenbang will send someone to honor His Majesty the Emperor." Chang Zhenbang said: "But Zhenbang is stupid, I'm afraid it won't be a book alone!" ”
Ye Jidao: "The original manuscript of Wang Yangming's biography has been included in the court, and the adults of this book may wish to include it in their pockets!" ”
"Wang Yangming's mind is very powerful, and he has been famous for a long time when he was in Dongying, but this book is not easy to read!"
"Those who understand it all become peerless heroes, and the seal worn by the heroic Toyo Heihachiro is to bow down to Yangming all his life. Dongying people have read it and created the feat of the yellow race to defeat the white race, not to mention that the adults are my Chinese people, and I have heard and seen it since I was a child, and maybe I will create a more brilliant cause! ”
"Sir, don't make fun of me." Chang Zhenbang was a little embarrassed by him, and said: "The biography is not easy to understand, Zhenbang is afraid that he will have to read it for a while, but the current situation is how to defeat Tang Jiyao and conquer the southwest." ”
"Do you think it's easier to conquer the world or conquer the southwest, which is better?" Ye Ji asked rhetorically.
Chang Zhenbang was a little confused on the spot, and only said after a while: "It's naturally best to dominate the world, but it's difficult!" Although it is not good to conquer the southwest, it is much easier than conquering the world. ”
"Wrong, sir, you're really wrong." Ye Ji said very seriously: "In the eyes of adults, maybe conquering the southwest is a shortcut to unify the world, but I don't know that in the eyes of the old man, it is not easy for adults to conquer the southwest, but at the same time they will lose the opportunity to unify the southwest. He shook his head and walked away with a sigh.
