Chapter 8 Return Voyage

The soldier scratched his head, not knowing how to deal with this situation, and the teacher had never called him, so he had to follow Ma Zheng to the back of the deck. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

When Ma Zheng went to the deck, he saw Chen Cheng holding a small wooden bucket and scooping out black food with a wooden spoon and sending it to his mouth. Seeing Ma Zheng, he raised the spoon in his hand and said, "What, Mr. Ma has finished eating?" ”

"The King..... Eat this kind of stuff too? Ma Zheng was shocked, and in his mind, the barbarian chieftains all ate with all kinds of gold ornaments and silver utensils. Who knows, this previously domineering and invincible earth, just like the soldiers below, is holding a wooden barrel and eating there without any image.

"What? Can't eat? Chen Cheng immediately thought of the reason why Ma Zheng came over, and also knew that this guy figured out that he would not kill him.

"It's not that I can't eat it...", Ma Zheng looked at the black mushy thing, gritted his teeth and said: "Since the king eats it, he naturally eats it in the next place." ”

"Hey, you literati in the Song Kingdom just like hypocrisy." Chen Cheng shook his head and said, "Although there are also many generous and heroic people.... Forget it, I won't talk to you about this, lest you have to say something again. If you want to eat and drink, you will naturally have it when you get to the shore, but on the ship, you can only eat the same things as the soldiers. ”

“.... Why? Ma Zheng asked rhetorically: "Is it to buy people's hearts?" ”

Chen Cheng glanced at him and said, "It's because there was an accident on the boat, and none of them could escape." Of course, if you can swim hundreds of miles in the ocean, that's a different story..... Well, just to buy people's hearts. ”

He put down the wooden barrel in his hand and said, "The vast majority of people in the world have a price, and the means of buying people's hearts are only a part of these prices..... What do you have to say? ”

“...... Does the king want to form an alliance with my Great Song Dynasty? ”

Chen Cheng was stunned for a moment, then laughed and exclaimed: "Sure enough, he is worthy of being a person who has been admitted to the Jinshi, and his head is a spiritual light." So, do you think it's possible? ”

Ma Zheng looked left and right, and then said loudly: "If the king is willing to raise the domestic attachment, my Emperor Song will definitely not hesitate to reward him in the future!" ”

"Didn't I show that before?" Chen Cheng said with a little surprise: "I don't look down on Zhao Ji, the so-called alliance is to avoid you being beaten too ugly by the Jin soldiers in the future." ”

"Jin Guo has an alliance with our country, how can there be a war?" Ma Zhengdao: "I'm afraid that the king wants to resist the Jin people in the name of my Great Song Dynasty, right?" ”

"The covenant is meant to be torn apart." Chen Cheng sneered and said, "Zhao Kuangyin said back then, on the side of the couch, how can others be allowed to sleep soundly!" If the Liao people are finished, do you think the Jin people will take advantage of the trend to go south? ”

"No, there will never be such a thing!" Ma Zheng shook his head again and again, and said, "The king still shouldn't waste his efforts to sow discord. I will deliver the letter of state to the king, but nothing else can be guaranteed. ”

Am I so good at this guy that he has any other ideas? Chen Cheng still can't understand the changes in Ma Zheng's attitude before and after, could it be that he feels that his life is guaranteed, so he has restored the arrogant nature of the scholar?

Ma Zheng continued: "There are also those people of the Song Kingdom who were captured by the king, and I still hope that the king can release them, they still have wives and children at home, and it is too ..... to break up the family."

Chen Cheng was silent, he was not moved by Ma Zheng's words, but began to reflect on whether his previous opinion of the writer was too negative. Although these guys have a lot of waste materials in them, they have also done a lot of practical things, no matter what the guy in front of him thinks, but the education he received still has the saying of caring for the people, which is much better than the ruling class in other civilizations.

Because they have unrealistic expectations, they will mourn their misfortune and be angry with them. If these literati, with Confucianism as the main body, could devote more energy to military studies...... No, that's not possible. Ancient China had expanded to the limit, and the greater threat came from within, not from without.

It is because of the fierce mess of those generals of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms that Zhao Song will vigorously suppress the warriors, and after that, Lianlian was Liao, Jin, and Mongolia. But it is precisely because Zhao Song's organizational degree has not completely collapsed that it has been able to support it for so long in front of three consecutive northern powers.

If we want to reform the spirit of the literati, we need to give them a broader vision and a broader view of the world. In fact, during the Southern Song Dynasty, there were also many literati who did practical things very fiercely. is like Yu Yunwen, who is very powerful in war. The Battle of Quarry Rock can be used as a textbook for water and land warfare in the feudal era.

Although, people like Yu Yunwen can't be in the ruling position in the Song State.

"Don't worry, I don't want to enslave them," Chen Cheng said to Ma Zheng, who was a little apprehensive in his heart: "On the contrary, my country is vigorously developing its navy, and it needs experienced sailors, and it will not treat them badly." ”

"Navy?" Ma Zheng chewed on this word, and roughly understood the meaning of this word, which is similar to the "sailor", a class of troops driving on the sea.

Chinese has such an advantage, even if you haven't seen something or don't know, you can guess a general meaning by listening to the nouns. This ease of use has left the alphabet language several streets away. In English, if something new doesn't appear, a new word has to be added. When a layman looks at those proper nouns, he simply wants to read a book from heaven. After a few hundred years, there is no connection between the language in the front and the back.

The Bohai Sea is not big, and even the sail warship did not go in a straight line, and it only took two or three days to return to Busan. It is located in the southernmost part of the peninsula and is already a large settlement after more than a year of construction.

The battleship slowly leaned on the pier under the guidance of the pilot, and after a slight collision, the hull of the ship shook, and the sailors and soldiers tied the thick cable to the pillar, then lowered the gangplank and stepped on land in an orderly manner.

Ma Zheng was dumbfounded and looked at Busan, which is no less than in Quanzhou, why such a big city suddenly appeared in such a remote place.

In the crowd, Wuhua, who was wearing a white monk's robe and had a Buddhist bead around his neck, walked out and said to Chen Cheng: "Your Majesty has got what you want in this attack?" ”

"Well, it's not bad." Chen Cheng thought for a moment and said, "If their emperor is not a waste material, it is still very promising." ”

Wuhua smiled, no longer answered, but made a gesture of please.
