Lu Bing smiled slightly: "I have compared martial arts with that Yu Dayou, his swordsmanship is indeed incredible, as for the swordsmanship, I have never seen it, Tianwolf, you must know that the masters of the world are not only in the martial arts, not to mention the monks and nuns, even in the military, there is no shortage of good players, if you have the opportunity to meet this Yu Dayou, he is four or five years older than you, but his martial arts are not inferior to you." ”

Sky Wolf couldn't help but be fascinated: "It should be like this, but although his martial arts are strong, he can't be said to be a good general, otherwise I can also lead troops to fight." ”

Lu Bing smiled: "Don't worry, listen to me." Yu Dayou was born in a family of military generals, and his family has his own military book and strategy, when he was twenty years old, he has been frail and sick for many years, and his bedridden father finally died. ”

"This Yu Dayou first attacked his father's position of a hundred households, and then in Fujian Province in the martial arts, Jiajing 14 years, he went to Beijing to participate in the national martial arts examination, not only skilled in arching horses, but also wrote an article in the strategy, won the then military department of Shangshu, but also the chief examiner of Mao Bowen appreciation, circled him as the fifth in the country Wujinshi, and promoted to a thousand households, stationed in the Jinmen guard off the coast of Fujian."

"When Jiajing was twenty-one years old, Yu Dayou followed Mao Bowen to conquer Annam, made military merits, and was promoted to the commander of the four products, that year Altan Khan began to invade the front line of Xuanda, and the imperial court ordered the whole country to go to the northern border to resist the enemy, Yu Dayou was recommended by Mao Bowen to Xuanfu, but was not reused by Zhai Peng, who was the governor of Xuanda at the time. In the end, he returned to Tingzhang to serve as a garrison. ”

In the next few years, Yu Dayou stayed in Guangdong to suppress the rebellion of the Dong people, and there was a Dong rebellion in Guangdong. The leader of the traitors, Su Qingshi, was born as an elder of the Demon Sect, a body of evil kung fu, and his strength was able to fight tigers, Yu Dayou made an appointment with him to fight a duel alone, and finally slashed Su Qingshi with a sword and quelled the rebellion. ”

"Sirius. This Yu Dayou has experienced a hundred battles, has strong martial arts, and is familiar with the art of war. He is a rare good general of my Ming Dynasty, but he has not known about bribing officials for many years, especially he did not take the initiative to conspire with the strict party, and once made the merit of beheading thousands during the counterinsurgency. was robbed by Yan Song of his credit to his cronies. He was only given a reward of fifty taels of silver, so although he had made great achievements in war for many years, his reputation was not obvious. Do you think this person is a good general? ”

The wolf sighed: "The traitors in the court are in charge, but the loyal ministers and good generals are excluded, if there are generals like Yu Dayou and Zongli who go out of the town, how can I be bullied by the Mongols and the Japanese to this point!" However, it is not easy for Hu Zongxian to use this person. Commander-in-Chief Lu, the second good general you mentioned. Who is it? ”

Lu Bing's eyes were blazing: "This second good general is Qi Jiguang, the former commander of Dengzhou Wei and the new general of Zhejiang." ”

The Heavenly Wolf muttered the name twice, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "But the year before last, when I was in charge of the Jingshi, the martial artist who was temporarily in charge of the defense of the Nine Gates?" ”

Lu Bing smiled slightly and nodded: "It is this person, this person's sixth ancestor Qi Xiang's ancestral home is Dingyuan, Anhui, when Emperor Taizu Hongwu raised troops against the Yuan, Qi Xiang admired it, because of his martial arts, and he was loyal and reliable, so he became Emperor Taizu's personal soldiers, with Taizu's life in the southern and northern wars, made countless meritorious contributions, and was promoted to general, and later died heroically in the battle of my Ming Dynasty to recover Yunnan, Emperor Taizu read his merits, and let his son hereditary Dengzhou Wei command the post of servant, compared to the hereditary hundred households of Yu Dayou's family, It's three levels higher. ”

"Like Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang also lost his father at the age of seventeen, it was Jiajing's twenty-three years, he was two years younger than you in terms of age, Qi Jiguang attacked his father's position at a young age, and became the four-rank commander of the Dengzhou Guard, in charge of tens of thousands of military households in the twenty-five guards, and every year he must lead the soldiers in the guard to Jixian County to defend in accordance with the law, and return in spring and autumn."

"Until the year before last, he first took the martial arts in his hometown, and then entered Beijing to participate in the Wujin Shi's examination, because he happened to meet the Beijing division of the prisoner, the lack of generals in Beijing, temporarily let this person be responsible for the defense of the nine gates, although he was less than thirty years old, but the marching dispatch is quite a famous general's demeanor, that period of prevention is done without leakage, so that Altan Khan has no chance to take advantage of, and finally had to withdraw from the siege, afterwards he also tried his best to advocate the pursuit of the Mongolian army, but unfortunately was blocked by Yan Song, failed to fulfill his wish."

Sky Wolf nodded: "Although I haven't seen Qi Jiguang, I have heard other Jinyi guards mention the matter of defending Jingshi last time many times when I was in Jingshi, this person is indeed a good general, and he was also transferred to Zhejiang this time?" ”

Lu Bingzheng said: "Yes, Hu Zongxian also heard about the incident last time, this time he also made it clear to the emperor that sooner or later he will have a decisive battle with the Japanese Invaders, but before that, General Yu Liang needs to sit in charge and train elite soldiers who are enough to match the Japanese Invaders, and the current guards are really useless." ”

"So he named three people, one is Zongli who has died in battle, and the other two are Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang, Zongli originally brought the elite soldiers of the headquarters, and wanted to use his Hetao elite as the backbone to train tens of thousands of elites in a short period of time, but unfortunately Zongli fell into the treacherous tricks of the Japanese and wiped out the whole army, and then I only hope that the second general Yu Qi can recruit and train on the spot within three or five years."

The Heavenly Wolf also knew that the guards in the southeast area were really rotten, and they couldn't fight at all, and they had to rely on the newly recruited troops to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese Invaders, so he sighed: "In this way, Hu Zongxian really has the determination to clear out the Japanese Bandits, and he is not the kind of mediocre official who only knows corruption and can get by." It's just that he is a member of the Yan Party after all, even if he has some ideas, it is impossible to disobey Yan Shifan's intentions, I listened to Yan Shifan's words yesterday, he doesn't want to eliminate the Japanese at all, but really wants to do business with the Japanese Kou, as soon as this trade is opened, he can be greedy in the middle. ”

Lu Bing nodded: "This is certain, in fact, even Yan Song is not the same as Yan Shifan, although he is greedy for power and power, but after all, he is also a Jinshi, he is polite and shameful, he will never be soft when attacking political enemies, but he will not waste state affairs, and Yan Shifan has no bottom line." Even if Da Ming dies, as long as he can make money, it doesn't matter. Therefore, he and Hu Zongxian should still be treated differently, my judgment is that Hu Zongxian is using trade and peace talks to buy time for military training, and in the end he still wants to eliminate the Japanese invaders, while Yan Shifan is determined to do business with the Japanese and make profits from it. ”

Sky Wolf smiled: "Since Commander Lu has already judged it like this. Why do you want to come here more than once, you didn't come specifically to consult my opinion on Hu Zongxian and Yan Shifan. ”

Lu Bing put away his smile. His expression became extremely stern: "Now I have two things that I need to do urgently, both of which must be yours, so I want you to make your own choice, one thing." It is the Jinyi Guard Prison who returned to Beijing. To be responsible for guarding Yang Jisheng, he can't let him die, he can't let Yan Dang poison him, and he can't let him talk nonsense to harm the minister of the Qing School, it's really a last resort, at most, he can only involve Zhang Juzheng, and he must not splash dirty water on Xu Jie. ”

"The second thing is that you should go to Hangzhou now. I will monitor the few Japanese robbers in Nanjing City, and you will go and touch the bottom of Hu Zongxian. ”

Tianluo asked, "Go to Hangzhou to touch the bottom of Hu Zongxian?" In what capacity do I go? Ordinary martial arts people. Or the deputy commander-in-chief of Jinyiwei? If I go to him like this as a brocade guard, then will he think that we brocade guards are investigating him, how can he be close to me? ”

Lu Bing shook his head: "Since the Mongol invasion, the emperor has also taken more precautions against the Yan Party, and after defeating Qiu Luan, the Yan Party is even more powerful in the court, which is definitely not what the emperor wants to see, so more than a month ago, the emperor specially ordered Tan Lun to be the prefect of Taizhou, and he also served as the army member of Hu Zongxian's Ping Wei Army, which is to enter a wedge of the Qing school in the two provinces of Zhejiang and Fujian controlled by the Yan Party, so that the Yan Party cannot cover the sky with one hand. ”

The wolf sneered: "It's a check and balance again, but this is the front line of the anti-Japanese resistance, the so-called use of people is not suspicious, and suspicious people are not needed, if the emperor really can't trust Hu Zongxian, just let Xu Jie himself come and serve as the governor of Zhejiang, and send a five- or six-grade Tan Lun over, how can he restrain Hu Zongxian, who is the second grade?" What's more, if Tan Lun goes against Hu Zongxian everywhere, restricts him more, and finally misses the major event of resisting the Japanese, who will bear this responsibility? ”

Lu Bingzheng said: "So the emperor also sent a secret decree to me, asking me to send someone to Hu Zongxian to monitor Hu Zongxian and Tan Lun, as long as Hu Zongxian does not carry the emperor behind his back, the fact that he is in contact with the Japanese Kou, he must try to maintain his authority, Tan Lun and Hu Zongxian have a good personal relationship, so as not to spoil state affairs for the sake of party disputes, you don't need to express your opinions on military affairs, just listen more, watch more, and persuade both sides privately when necessary." ”

"There is another one, Hu Zongxian and Yan Shifan's concepts are different, he will not agree with Yan Shifan's strategy of really cooperating with the Japanese Invaders, the two will definitely turn against each other in the future, and it is not ruled out that Yan Shifan's dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, and sent a killer or bribed the Japanese Kou to get rid of Hu Zongxian, so you still have to take on the task of protecting Hu Zongxian, how about it?"

Tian Wolf's brows furrowed, although Lu Bing explained so much, but in his heart he still didn't trust Hu Zongxian, as a martial artist, he had a natural vigilance towards Hu Zongxian, a civil official of the Yan Party, this idea couldn't change for a while, he shook his head: "With Yu Dayou here, I'm afraid it won't be my turn to protect Hu Zongxian, and if I give him this personal bodyguard, then how can I secretly investigate his affairs?" ”

Lu Bing's face sank: "So I want you to do this, Heavenly Wolf, although you are the deputy commander-in-chief of Jinyiwei, you are still a martial artist in your bones, not a figure in the officialdom for a long time, if I change someone else, such as Daklin, such as Murong Wu, to do this, I am afraid that the first thing they want to think about is their own future, and it is too late to tie up the high-ranking and powerful Hu Zongxian." ”

Sky Wolf smiled: "What about Feng Wu, she shouldn't think about being promoted and getting rich." ”

Lu Bing hooked the corners of his mouth: "Feng Wu is a female stream after all, her knowledge is limited, and she lacks the ability to adapt to changes, besides, in what capacity can she be sent to Hu Zongxian?" Concubines? ”

Heavenly Wolf sighed: "It seems that I really have to do it, okay, then Yang Jisheng still asks you to let Feng Wu take more care, I will try this Hu Zongxian's quality first, this time it is still the same as before, you give me a gold medal, and I will walk in Hu Zongxian's military camp as a special envoy of Jinyiwei?" ”

Lu Bing nodded: "Yes, that's right, you are good at the art of disguise, you can constantly change your identity in the camp, investigate and secretly visit, remember, if Hu Zongxian negotiates with the Japanese Kou, you must be present." The so-called "not allowing him to have contact with the Japanese in private" refers to this, which is also clearly stated in the emperor's reply to him. Let him negotiate with the Wako in the presence of the Jinyi Guard. ”

Sky Wolf said in a deep voice: "Understood, then I'll go back and prepare to go to Hangzhou, is the gold medal you used the one you gave me this time?" ”

Lu Bing smiled: "Exactly." It also saves me from having to send another piece to someone else. By the way, how did you find Qu Caifeng as a helper this time? You didn't tell me about it when you left the capital. ”

The wolf secretly complained in his heart, this time he found Qu Caifeng, and he just took advantage of the situation, at first he wanted to abide by the covenant outside the Saiwai. found a way to detoxify Qu Caifeng, and later temporarily asked Qu Caifeng to help him, and now Lu Bing seems to have noticed something again. Always staring at his relationship with Qu Caifeng, it was also very difficult for him to answer.

But the Heavenly Wolf still raised his head and said calmly: "Commander Lu, originally I didn't think about looking for Miss Qu when I left the Jingshi. But after arriving in Huguang, he happened to rely on the general rudder of the Wushan faction. I thought about the last time I treated Qu Caifeng Xiao outside the Saiwai and asked her to agree to get out of Yan Song's control, but I don't know if she will regret it after returning to the Wushan faction, after all, Leng Tianxiong has helped her for many years, if she knows her feelings, it is difficult to guarantee that Qu Caifeng will not be moved. ”

"In addition, in order to win the trust of the Demon Alliance, our Jinyi Guard has now removed the guards of the Wushan faction's main altar and the rudder of each province, with the current strength of the Wushan faction. It would be difficult to deal with the full force of the Demon Suppression Alliance and the Dongting Gang, so I went to the Wushan Sect first this time. I just want to touch Qu Caifeng's movements. ”

"The result made me feel relieved, and then I thought about it, the action of investigating the corrupt officials of the Yan Party is bound to clash head-on with the Demon Sect, and I am afraid that I will be alone in my own hands, so why not use Qu Caifeng, a ready-made good helper, and if she is allowed to have a conflict with the Demon Sect, it can also cut off her way back in the future."

Lu Bing looked at the wolf's eyes motionlessly, as if he wanted to judge whether he was lying from his eyes, fortunately, with the increase of experience over the years, the wolf could already lie without changing his face and eyelids, and he never let Lu Bing see any flaws, he finally sighed: "You have done a good job in this matter, but I still don't understand a little, Qu Caifeng had a deep hatred with you before after all, why is he so determined to you now, he can even throw down the Wushan faction and come alone to help you, Is she really in love with you? I can't think of any other explanation than that. ”

Sky Wolf Zhengse said: "Commander-in-Chief Lu, you always misjudge this kind of thing, I have others in my heart, and there are others in her heart, it is impossible for us to come together, but Qu Caifeng is a typical heroine among women, and her years of green forest career have made her particularly hate corrupt officials and traitors. I just don't want to tear my face with the Demon Sect without outside help, so I just disguise myself and act with me as a person, for no other reason. ”

Lu Bing didn't speak for a long time, and in the end, he still said in a deep voice: "Okay, I will believe you in this matter, but you are about to go to Hu Zongxian, how can you send Qu Caifeng away?" ”

The wolf pondered for a while, and said with a straight face: "According to the truth, I and Miss Qu are heart-to-heart, there is no need to hide these things from her, Qiu Luan was defeated by Yan Song, our efforts a while ago were in vain, and then she should also go back to the Wushan faction and take good precautions, lest Yan Shifan retaliate against her, Commander Lu, now is an extraordinary time, can you please send some Jinyi guard masters to help the Wushan faction defend it?" At this time, if the Dongting Gang or the Demon Sect attack them with all their might, I am afraid that Miss Qu will not be able to deal with it. ”

Lu Bing didn't answer directly, but asked: "Speaking of the Dongting Gang, when you went to Hunan this time, you also had contact with Chu Tianshu, but in the report you gave me, you understated this, just saying that Chu Tianshu is willing to cooperate with us, but I need to ensure that someone who can guarantee his interests to replace Li Mingliang, what is going on, where did Chu Tianshu come from, how much do you know, tell me in detail." ”

Heavenly Wolf secretly sighed in his heart that Lu Bing was really perceptive, but he also expected that Lu Bing would not be able to give up such an important clue as Chu Tianshu, this time he could talk to Chu Tianshu directly, it was strange that he didn't get to the bottom of it, he also thought about the words along the way, and when he heard Lu Bing ask, he calmly replied: "Commander Lu, this time I saw Chu Tianshu himself, and it can even be said that it was planted in his hands, if it wasn't for the fact that he didn't want to be our enemy, I was afraid that I would already be a dead man at this time." ”

So the wolf told the process of how to visit the governor's yamen at night in Changsha City, if he was ambushed by Chu Tianshu, and how to fight with Chu Tianshu in the end, but omitted the secret that Chu Tianshu is Yue Party, as well as the origin of the silkworm swordsmanship that day, only said that Chu Tianshu's swordsmanship was incredibly fast, and the divine soldiers in his hands, with his purple qi, could instantly brand the wounds on his body, that battle was really dangerous, if he didn't have a bloody bravery, he would have been defeated a long time ago.
