"The general is practicing martial arts in the backyard, I'll take the two of you over. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Shen Cong and the two came to the General's Mansion, and the subordinates in the mansion walked towards the backyard with the two of them.

Before I walked into the courtyard, I could only hear loud voices in the courtyard, gusts of wind, obviously someone was practicing martial arts, and they were very devoted.

Stepping into the courtyard, I saw a young man using a spear, the spear was really powerful in his hand, looking at the spear weighed at least 100 catties, but this person was very flexible to use, so much strength. Shen Cong was a little stupid when he watched it.

"Look at this is General Chang Mao, he is really young, his martial arts are particularly powerful, and he has defeated the enemy army many times and made meritorious contributions to the imperial court." The old man smiled beside him and said to Shen Cong.

Shen Cong also nodded and replied with a smile: "A good man is ambitious in all directions, when he goes into battle to kill the enemy, and the horse leather shroud, this kind of energy is not something that ordinary people can have." "For example, people like himself, he doesn't want to go into battle to kill the enemy.

After Chang Mao took a trip to marksmanship, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet the two: "Uncle Li, you are here, I don't know who this is?" ”

Without waiting for Shen Cong to speak, the old man hurriedly replied: "General Chang Mao, this is an old friend of the old man, who came all the way from Jiangnan, and now his father is seriously ill and needs to go out of the customs to the Mongolian desert to collect medicinal materials to save his life. ”

As soon as Chang Mao heard this, he hurriedly bowed his hand to Shen Cong: "Brother Tai's filial piety is really admirable, but this desert is a place for Mongolians, there must be a lot of danger this time, can't you use other medicinal materials to save your life?" Why bother to hurt his life because of this. ”

Listening to Chang Mao's words, I don't know why, I feel that he in front of me is not in line with history at all, and he still cares about himself so much.

"General Chang Mao, I have to go to the Mongolian desert in the future, even if it is dangerous, I have to go, this is no way." For Shen Cong, going to the Mongolian desert now is really a last resort, and it is something that must be done.

On the one hand, it is to avoid the pursuit of the imperial court, after all, he has already convicted himself and wants to send someone to arrest him. On the other hand, it is necessary to properly use funds to support a strong Mongolian tribe, and then use the power of the Mongols to create a little border trouble for the Ming Dynasty, so that the Ming Dynasty can focus on the Mongols.

"Since Brother Tai has made up his mind, it's not good to say anything more." Chang Mao sighed and said, "Since you were brought by Uncle Li, your request will naturally be fulfilled." ”

Shen Cong said very gratefully, "Thank you, General." Shen Cong thought that Chang Mao might catch himself and ask questions, but he didn't ask anything.

Chang Mao took Shen Cong and Boss Li to the study and prepared the paperwork for Shen Congcong: "Brother Tai, this is the paperwork, it can help you enter and exit the customs, you must be careful!" ”

Shen Cong was grateful for receiving the paperwork, although he knew that it was because of Boss Li that Chang Mao was so polite to him, but it was not easy to let Chang Mao do this.

Chang Mao bowed his hand to Shen Congyi and said politely: "Brother Tai is from Jiangnan, I haven't been back to Jiangnan for a long time, I don't know if Brother Tai can tell us some things about Jiangnan, it's nothing new to stay here for a long time." ”

"Absolutely." Shen Cong smiled slightly, everyone has helped him do such a big thing, if he doesn't help others with this little favor, it will be too uninteresting.

Chang Mao ordered people to prepare wine and food, and the three of them sat together and chatted, Chang Mao and Shen Cong, two young people of the same age, seemed to be friends who had not seen each other for many years, and they chatted very speculatively.

Unconsciously, the three of them have been talking about the twilight, up to astronomy and geography, down to the customs and appearance, only talking about the sky, for the work of chatting, Shen Cong is handy, all kinds of fresh topics are constantly breaking news, all kinds of gossip from the previous dynasties are countless, up to the three emperors and five emperors, down to the Yuan Dynasty society, of course, the three of them have all avoided today's society.

"Brother Tai is really eclectic, he knows so much, he is just a rough man, thanks to Brother Tai today, I know that there are so many interesting things in this world, is the piranha you said really eating people? And zombies, when people die, they really become zombies? Chang Mao was completely fascinated by Shen Cong's story.

"It's all true." Shen Cong admired Chang Mao's martial arts and his courage very much: "This bit of fur that I know is just to fool people, where is like a general, you are strong in martial arts, and you bravely kill the enemy to protect your family and defend the country, this is the quality that a real good man should have." ”

"Hahaha, brother Tai praised it." Shen Cong's few good words, only Chang Mao, who said it, was happy in his heart.

Looking at the bold Chang Mao, Shen Cong's heart couldn't help but think of his father Chang Yuchun, and hurriedly asked: "General, I have heard the prestige of the old general for a long time, but it is difficult to see each other, I don't know if I can be lucky enough to meet the old general today!" ”

Chang Mao laughed: "If my father heard Brother Tai praise him like this, I think he would be very happy, but Brother Tai came very unfortunately, my father accompanied the army to the north, and it is estimated that after a period of time, he will return to the court, if Brother Tai can come back from the Mongolian desert in time, maybe when you come back, it will be when your father comes back." ”

"Oh." After listening to Chang Mao's answer, Shen Cong nodded, it seems that Chang Yuchun's deadline is approaching, whether he wants to tell Chang Mao about this matter, Shen Cong's heart is quite entangled.

Chang Yuchun's death was not killed by anyone, to a certain extent, Chang Yuchun killed himself, and even said it ugly, Chang Yuchun had to die this time.

According to historical records, as the commander of an army, Chang Yuchun always likes to charge into battle. Before the Northern Expedition, Zhu Yuanzhang reminded him: "As a general, taking care of the corner with the small school is not even what I want." At that time, I often met spring thanks, but when I arrived at the battlefield, I still went my own way and rode alone. In the more than 20 years of campaigning, Chang Yuchun has been injured many times, coupled with the non-stop campaign, there is no fixed place to live, there is no time to eat, the body may accumulate into illness, and has been in sub-health.

The northern expedition of the army set off from May to July, it was the time of summer and autumn, the weather was hot, and along the way, it was often necessary to formulate a battle plan and charge into battle in armor, and the physical consumption was extremely great, although it was okay on the surface, but the body was in a very dangerous situation. Liuhechuan is located in the territory of what is now Chengde City, Hebei Province, and although the temperature is low in July, the temperature difference between day and night is very large.

And it was in this situation that Chang Yuchun suffered from "armor removal wind" and died violently. It is conceivable that the weather in the Liuhechuan area is hot during the day, and he often encounters spring and heavy armor, and at night the temperature is cool, he disregards the sweat on his body, and immediately takes off his armor, causing a "stroke" disease, and with many years of injuries, his body has reached the limit, plus the army expedition, there is no good doctor, so he died.

It can be said that Chang Yuchun's death is very complicated.
