389 Old Road
The strange person Xia Bangxing said is naturally the old Taoist Chen Guanyu who is mixed in the Tatar tribe. After rebelling against the Has-ula tribe and helping Deng Kui successfully exterminate the Bibai tribe, Chen Guanyu went to the Tatar settlements in the Hetao region and continued his great deception. With his incorruptible tongue, he won the favor of many tribes, cheating and drinking all day long, and occasionally sleeping with Tatar maidens, and said that his life was extremely nourishing.
Xia Bangxing came to the Hetao area with Bu Lost Rabbit, and after arriving, he followed Bu Lost Rabbit's instructions and contacted the leaders of the various tribes to persuade them to leave Litu and support Bu Lost Rabbit instead. In this process, he heard people talk about how the original Chen Daochang was able to do it several times, and he couldn't help but be curious. After being introduced by a tribal leader, he finally met the mysterious Taoist leader and appreciated Chen Guanyu's vertical and horizontal skills.
As a knowledgeable strategist, Xia Bangxing naturally would not be confused by Chen Guanyu's iron mouth, he knew that this kind of wandering Taoist priests all relied on their tongues to eat, and what they said was more false and less true, and it was not enough to be believed. However, he was a little interested in Chen Guanyu's experience, he had already heard that Su Hao was a dark horse in the Ming army, and Chen Guanyu said that he had an old relationship with Su Hao, and that was a figure worth paying attention to.
Regarding the battle against the Ming army, Xia Bangxing has always been a little suspicious. After Bu Lost Rabbit received the invitation of Li Rabbit, he went to Ningxia with tens of thousands of horses with great interest, and Xia Bangxing couldn't stop it, so he could only follow him over, ready to find the right time to persuade Lost Rabbit to think twice. Now, Bu Lost Rabbit suffered the loss of the Ming army and began to retreat, Xia Bangxing just took the opportunity to make a statement, suggesting that Bu Lost Rabbit negotiate peace with the Ming army, and not meet each other.
After getting Bu Lost's approval, Xia Bangxing immediately went out to find Chen Guanyu. He rode around the camp for a long time, and found Chen Guanyu in the middle of a group of Tatar officers and soldiers, at that time, this old Taoist was spitting and boasting to the officers and soldiers about Su Hao's magical ability, you know, more than half of the exaggerated legends about Su Hao in the Tatar camp flowed from Chen Guanyu.
"Daochang Chen, can you take a step to speak?" Xia Bangxing stepped forward, saluted Chen Guanyu, and said.
The Tatar officers and soldiers recognized Xia Bangxing from the color of his uniform that he was the ** beside Bu Lost Rabbit, so they naturally didn't dare to make a mistake, stood up one by one, and retreated to the side to stand solemnly. Chen Guanyu was originally sitting cross-legged on a blanket on the ground, but seeing this, he quickly stood up and saluted Xia Bangxing back, saying, "Where did Xia Daxue come from, the poor road has not been far away, forgive your sins." ”
Xia Bangxing waved his hand and said: "Daochang Chen doesn't have to be polite, Xia Mou is on the order of the prince of my family, and I have come to invite Daochang Chen to go to the big tent to talk about it." ”
"Lord Wang?" The Tatar officers and soldiers surrounding all opened their mouths wide and threw a beam of adoration at Chen Guanyu at the same time. What an honor it is to be personally received by Bu Lost Rabbit, it seems that Chen Daochang's Taoism is so high that he has been able to alarm the little prince, and when he sees Chen Daochang again in the future, he must be more respectful no matter what.
Hearing Xia Bangxing's words, Chen Guanyu's heart was also in a pang. He is an intelligence officer sent by Su Hao, and he is mixed in the Tatar camp all day long, which is actually equivalent to dancing on the tip of a knife. It is not a problem to fool the leaders of those small tribes, because the Tatars have always respected Taoism in the Central Plains very much, and they will not embarrass him as a Taoist. But going to see Bu Lost Rabbit is another matter, especially after the Kanyu Battalion has just inflicted heavy losses on the Tatar army, will Bu Lost Rabbit vent all his anger on him?
Although he was muttering in his heart, Chen Guanyu's face was not timid. His excellence lies in the fact that his psychological quality is very stable, and when he encounters this kind of big thing, he can pretend to be a nobody.
"The prince summoned it, that is the glory of the poor road, but I don't know what advice the prince has for summoning the poor road." Chen Guanyu asked Xia Bangxing.
Xia Bangxing smiled faintly and said, "The mind of the prince, how can those of us who are subordinates speculate?" Chen Daochang will know it after a trip with Xia, you can rest assured, our prince has always been a corporal of courtesy, and he will respect a master like Chen Daochang very much. ”
"How dare you, and let the poor Dao go to change clothes and wash his face, and then go to see the prince." Chen Guanyu said.
Xia Bangxing didn't have to be so grand, and when his eyes fell on Chen Guanyu's body and face, he swallowed his words back. Just now, Chen Guanyu didn't know what good things he was eating with the Tatar officers and soldiers, so that his body and face were shiny, and this dignity appeared in front of Bu Losttu, which was indeed a bit unsightly.
Chen Guanyu returned to the tent he borrowed and changed into a new robe, got some water to wash his face, combed his hair, and then came out and went to the big tent of Bu Lost Rabbit with Xia Bangxing.
"Lord Wang, this is Chen Guanyu Chen Daochang." Xia Bangxing took Chen Guanyu into the big tent, saluted Bu Lost Rabbit, and then introduced.
"Poor Dao, meet the prince Chitose Chitose!" Chen Guanyu took two quick steps forward, and fell to the ground without saying anything, kowtowing seven or eight times at Bu Lost Rabbit.
Bu Lost Rabbit frowned, waved his hand and said, "Get up, give me a seat." ”
It's also strange that Xia Bangxing said too much before, in Bu Lost's heart, Chen Guanyu's imagination is a fairy wind and a worldly master, at least when he sees himself, he should be holding a few shelfs, not kneeling or worshipping, and he can still say a few words. Who would have thought that this Chen Guanyu's knees were extremely soft, what was the difference between this and those ordinary Han people that Bu Losttu had seen?
"Your name is Chen Guanyu?"
After the soldier next to him found a chair for Chen Guanyu to sit down, Bu Shitu asked coldly.
"Yes, the poor road is Chen Guanyu." Chen Guanyu replied.
"I heard that you are very good?" Bu Lost Rabbit asked again.
Chen Guanyu said: "Don't dare, don't dare, in front of the prince, how dare those poor Dao skills dare to claim to be Taoist, but they will look at the earth's qi, survey feng shui, break off good fortune and evil, and resolve some grudges." ”
"Where did you learn the Word?" Bu Lost Rabbit directly filtered out Chen Guanyu's boastful words and asked him.
Chen Guanyu said: "The poor road is the way that I learned in Yuhua Mountain, Jiangxi, and the master of the poor road is the twenty-sixth generation of real people in Yuhua Mountain, which is my famous land master." Poor Dao has been learning art from his master since he was a child, and he has also learned a little bit of the master's skin. ”
"I heard that Su Hao, the deputy general of Ningxia of the Ming Army, is your senior brother, where did you start out?" Bu Lost Rabbit asked again.
Chen Guanyu had been prepared for this question for a long time, and he replied: "Back to the prince, this Su Hao is the only son of the poor Taoist teacher, and he is the twenty-seventh generation of my Yuhua Mountain Daomen. Although he is very young, he is profound, and he has to be called a senior brother by poor Dao. ”
"You mean, Su Hao is a Taoist priest?" Bu Lostu felt a little surprised, he couldn't merge the two identities of Taoist priest and deputy chief soldier no matter what.
Chen Guanyu said: "My senior brother was born in Taoism, but he is not a Taoist priest. He just inherited the position of the head of my Yuhua Mountain Daomen, but the master's last words wanted him to take the official career, so he did not become a Taoist, but entered the public gate, and he was in a high position as a deputy chief soldier at the age of twenty. ”
Bu Lostu said: "Since you and Su Hao have the status of senior brothers, and now that he is the deputy commander-in-chief, he has not promoted you?" Or are you already an officer of the Ming army, mixed into our Tatar army, and came to be a spy? ”
"No, no, no!" Chen Guanyu was so frightened that he fell off the chair, he knelt on the ground, and said, "Don't misunderstand, Poor Dao is really an outsider, and he has nothing to do with my senior brother. The poor road came to the Tatar land, just to spread morality, and there was no other meaning. ”
"Spreading morality?" Bu Lostu's eyes widened, and he said, "Last night, our camp caught fire one after another, and this king suspected that someone had set fire to our army's grain and grass by arson. The person outside is naturally Su Hao's Ming army. I'm afraid that the people in here are just you, a hypocrite, right? ”
"Poor and wronged, please check the prince!" Chen Guanyu mourned, "The prince can go and ask, the poor road has been ...... last night Gambling with people, he didn't leave the tent at all. Poor Dao doesn't know anything about this fire. ”
Since Bu Lost Rabbit wanted to summon Chen Guanyu, he naturally understood the situation in advance. Chen Guanyu said that he had been gambling with people the night before, which Bu Losttu already knew. When he said the previous words, he just wanted to deceive Chen Guanyu and give Chen Guanyu a dismount. Once Chen Guanyu is scared, it will be easy to say what Bu Lost Rabbit will say.
"Whether this fire has anything to do with you, this king must investigate in detail. If this king finds out that you are an internal annihilator, this king will definitely divide your five horses into corpses! Bu Lost Rabbit threatened.
"It must have nothing to do with the Poor Dao, the Poor Dao can swear by the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" Chen Guanyu jumped to his feet and said.
"What's the use of your swearing, you haven't told a word of truth since you entered this big tent, how can this king believe you?" Bu Lost Rabbit said.
Chen Guanyu said: "Lord Wang, everything that Poor Dao said is the truth!" ”
"You're telling the truth?" Bu Lost Rabbit said, "You said that you have nothing to do with Su Hao, and you entered the grassland just to spread morality, do you dare to say that this matter is not Su Hao's arrangement?" ”
"This ......," Chen Guanyu was speechless, "what about this matter...... It has a little bit to do with my brother. ”
"So, what did Su Hao send you to the grassland for?" Bu Lost Rabbit asked.
Chen Guanyu said: "Although my senior brother has become the deputy chief soldier, he is a person from the Taoist Sect after all, and he has the virtue of a good life. He said that the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars were originally brothers, and the prince of Shunyi and I had already signed an agreement with the Ming Dynasty, and they were not allowed to fight without permission. The former had a traitor who betrayed the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty naturally wanted to chase him to the grassland and arrest him, but he was worried that this move would make the Tatar friends misunderstand and cause some unnecessary conflicts. Therefore, my senior brother sent me to the grassland, mainly to resolve the misunderstanding between the two sides, so as not to destroy the lives of the people. ”
"That's what he said?" Bu Lost Rabbit asked.
Chen Guanyu said: "It's true, that's what he said." ”
"Then can you bring me a letter to Su Hao, just say that this prince also has the virtue of a good life, and he is not willing to commit more killings, and he is limited to withdraw to the territory of the Ming Dynasty with the Ming army within three days, otherwise, don't blame me for having no eyes for my saber and gun." Bu Lost Rabbit said viciously. (To be continued.) )
