Fifty-eight Scholars and Heroes, Called Writers (Middle)

"In the memo written to His Majesty the Emperor, will it be written that we have killed more than 500 people in order to exterminate the remaining less than 200 pirates? Will it be written that in order to deal with more than 20 true widows, 300 people besieged us, and 98 people were killed in the battle? Will it be written that if we don't use firearms and stratagems, we will surely lose? If such a twist is written, will His Majesty the Emperor mistakenly think that the soldiers of Suzhou are the best in the southeast, and the Japanese are far behind, so the Suzhou soldiers are mobilized to conquer the Japanese invaders? ”

Zheng Guang used a very ordinary tone, as if he was saying something very normal, but Fan Qing's pupils shrank, and the eyes of the jubilant crowd outside were also full of guilt and pain, and after a long time, Fan Qing said: "Daming needs a victory too much, or a battle with thousands of beheadings, no matter what, this is a brilliant victory, the southeast has suffered from the Japanese for a long time, and the people of the southeast need a victory to motivate themselves."

Zheng Guang took a deep breath, looked at the blue sky, and showed a warm smile for a long time: "Fuzun, next, you will definitely be appointed as Su Song's military garrison to preside over the southeast anti-Japanese affairs, right?" ”

Fan Qing shook his head and said: "My qualifications are not enough, Su Song's military equipment may be able to do it, but to preside over the southeast anti-Japanese war, how can you also need a high-ranking official such as a governor or a governor to preside, but after this battle, I will definitely enter the field of vision of the military department, from a pure civilian official to a civilian general who can be used to command the army in their eyes."

If my expectations are correct, the victory of this battle will definitely prompt Your Majesty to change some national policies, after all, Your Majesty has been angry for a long time about the erosion of the southeast anti-Japanese war, this time, it is estimated that a minister with rich experience will be sent to the southeast to preside over the anti-Japanese affairs, and I will definitely become an important assistant to him, earlier my greatest wish was to die a righteous death, and now, my destination, probably the horse leather shroud, right? ”

Zheng Guang smiled: "What's wrong with this? At least, you are no longer afraid of the Japanese invaders, you have already faced the Japanese invaders, the Ming Dynasty does not lack elite soldiers, but there is a lack of officials who are not afraid of the Japanese and dare to fight, the Ming Dynasty uses civil and military affairs, and it needs the scribes who dare to fight to stand on the front line of the resistance to the Japanese, as long as you are a civil official who dares to fight, it is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Fan Qing smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "I know my own catties, if you didn't design it, if you didn't teach the soldiers to use firearms, there would be no such big victory, wouldn't you ask yourself what reward you would get?" In the merit book, I am the first merit, you are the second merit, I am the main decision-maker, you are the main strategist, and you have become the temporary commander, beheading a large number of Japanese soldiers, able to write and martial arts, and also added a sentence "full of loyalty", this time, you should get a great reward. ”

Zheng Guang stood up, looked at the bandages on his left and right arms, as well as the bandages on his chest, and said with a smile: "I just want to be peaceful, take the imperial examination, and the township examination will be released in three or four days, I am going back to Nanjing, I don't want to participate in everything here, it's best not to mention me much, let me finish the imperial examination, I hope Your Majesty will not be tempted to give me a Jinshi background, then I will not do well." ”

Fan Qing nodded and said: "Don't worry, rest assured that the imperial examination, everything here has nothing to do with the fresh candidates, if you get the Jinshi, you will definitely be famous in the world, and everything else will be handed over to me!" ”

Zheng Guang smiled, and left the prefect's mansion, he and Fan Qing have a wonderful relationship, the two are twice as old as each other, but they have such a sense of mutual trust, probably because they have experienced everything yesterday, he and Fan Qing have changed slightly, just yesterday, a prefect, a small showman, did what no one in the entire southeast has done in the past twenty years.

Zheng Guang walked away, went home, will only stay at home for a day, will go to Nanjing to wait for his exam results, but the battle of Suzhou brought about by the storm has just begun, the violent cannon and shouting of killing made the people of Suzhou the first to know the results of the war, Suzhou soldiers upset the victory of the Japanese invaders, annihilated more than 2,000 Japanese invaders, beheaded more than 1,000 levels, and created an unprecedented victory in the southeast since the Jiajing anti-Japanese war, killing the famous Japanese chieftain Lin Bichuan and his leaders in Zhejiang, It dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese forces in Zhejiang.

The main credit belongs to two people, one is the prefect Fan Qing, who is not chaotic in the face of danger, personally went to the front line to personally organize the battle, firm integrity, would rather die than yield, and use all the praise words can not tell Fan Qing's unswerving in that situation, if there is no Fan Qing's resolute resistance and taking the lead, this battle of Suzhou would not have been able to be fought.

If it is said that Fan Qing's organization of resistance is his duty, then another hero can be said to be a sacrifice of his life, under the tutelage of Mr. Jingchuan Tang Shunzhi, everyone in Suzhou knows the little Zheng Xianggong Zheng Guang, following his father Zheng Wei seven years ago after the heroic sacrifice for Suzhou, once again stood up, in Suzhou no general danger juncture, stood up, with less than the age of the weak crown and the fame of the talent and fame put on the battle armor, personally to the front line of the battle, is the actual commander and chief general of the defensive operation.

Seven years ago, the Japanese invaded Suzhou, Suzhou was in chaos, almost broken the city, tens of thousands of people were chased by the Japanese invaders, Zheng Wei sacrificed his life to take righteousness, and led the fire to lead the Japanese Kou away, his heroic sacrifice, saved tens of thousands of lives, since then remembered by the people of Suzhou, every household remembers Zheng Wei's life-saving grace, have not forgotten him, seven years later, it is the Zheng family Xiaoxiang Gong stood up, led the soldiers and horses in the city to fight the Japanese Kou, Suzhou soldiers died more than 500 people, and finally kept Suzhou safe.

This battle, not only the luck of Suzhou, but also the pride of Suzhou, has never produced elite soldiers and strong generals, but achieved the first victory of the Ming Dynasty in the southeast since Jiajing, there are more than 1,400 levels of beheading, more than 2,000 Japanese invaders escaped alive I don't know if there is a hundred, killed by artillery, killed by rockets, and finally the army went out of the city to chase and kill the Japanese invaders, killing people for blood horses and horses, as if everyone rolled a guy out of the blood water and then came out, so that the people of the whole Suzhou were stunned.

You know, since this group of Japanese robbers came to the city, the hearts of the big guys have been raised to their throats, for fear that the official army will be defeated and the city of Suzhou will be broken and then everyone will be finished together, to be honest, even many big families and wealthy businessmen feel very afraid, because although they collude with the Japanese Invaders, but there is also a hostile relationship between the Japanese and the Japanese Invaders, in case the relationship with this team of Japanese Invaders is not good, and they are cut down, and there is no place to reason, so whether it has anything to do with the Japanese Invaders, they are praying for the officials and soldiers to give some strength, Don't let Suzhou really break through, it's an important town in the southeast!

Having said that, the big guys also know what kind of virtue those Suzhou soldiers who don't look up all day long are and don't look up, and there are many local gangsters who really can't get along and go to the city defense camp to mix their skins, which is considered to be a serious matter, but can they be counted on their combat effectiveness? Everyone is not pinning their hopes on the government and the official army, but pinning their hopes on the gods and Buddhas in the sky, so that they can manifest their spirits, go down to the mortal body to possess their bodies, and let the officials and soldiers show their might, not asking for much, only this time.

When the cannon rumbled and the shouts of killing were earth-shattering, everyone was desperate, and they all hugged and cried with their families, preparing for a tragic ending, and died here with their families, only to be told that the official army had won a great victory, annihilated the Japanese and kept Suzhou!

Everyone's first reaction was not to believe it, was it the Japanese who pretended to be the official army to deceive everyone to open the house, and then staged a tragedy in which all but a stitch and a thread were taken away, but then, Fan Qing appeared in the streets and alleys as the prefect, beating gongs and drums to inform the residents that the Ming Dynasty had won, the officials and troops had won the battle, and Suzhou had been saved!

Fan Qing's official reputation is good, and he is still trustworthy, and only after everyone cautiously opened the door and really saw a pile of weapons and a dozen or so tied up widows, did they fall into ecstasy, and really believed that the official army really won a big victory.

Suzhou people are grateful, in the joy of daily life back on track, and the family is complete at the same time, everyone will not forget the heroes who brought all this, especially in Suzhou This kind of thing happened, it is really a little unreasonable, under a question, the streets and alleys spread the drama of "Fan Zhifu is fighting against the Japanese invaders, and Zheng Xiucai stands up to raise his reputation".

There are no generals in Suzhou, no strong soldiers, this seems to be the truth, but today, the appearance of a person has changed the truth that seems to be very reasonable in the past, Zheng Guang, Zheng Xianggong, as a showman, stepped forward, at the critical juncture of Suzhou, accepted the request of Fan Zhifu, as the temporary commander of the Suzhou Army, served as the city defense work, taught the soldiers to learn firearms skills, inspired the morale of the army, in the most dangerous time, cleverly planned, pretended to kidnap Fan Zhifu to open the city and surrender, in fact, ambushed a large number of firearms behind the city gate, Ready to launch!

But in this way, he trapped himself and Fan Zhifu in the place of nine deaths and one life, but the two did not hesitate, stood in front of thousands of Japanese invaders together, standing proudly, when the firearms were fired, the two of them lay down together to avoid the rocket, and then killed the leaders of the Japanese invaders, so that the Japanese dragons had no leader, and were bombarded by the city's artillery, and died seventy-seven eighty-eight, and then Zheng Xiucai shook his spirit, held a big gun, led the army to kill the Japanese deserters, and made great achievements, wearing 18 wounds, still fighting non-stop, it is really a strange man through the ages!

Everyone knows that people with meritorious names are not allowed to be forcibly recruited, but Zheng Xiucai not only agreed to the request of Fan Zhifu, but also took the initiative to fight, took the lead, and went to the front line to fight against the Japanese invaders. It's clearly something that can only be done by ancient heroes!

Zheng Guang, Zheng Xianggong, is really worthy of being a hero among literati, and can be called a literary hero!
