。。。 Seeing that some classmates proposed that Polo and Chahan should not go to war because of the beneficial relationship. I have already made an answer in the book review section, and I have expressed my personal opinion.

In my opinion, cooperation is beneficial to both sides, and division is harmful to both. This is a very simple truth. However, this does not necessarily mean that simple truths can be followed. Polo and Chahan would not have been unaware of the dispute between the two of them, which would only benefit the rebels; However, because of the respective interests of both sides, the war between them has been continuous.

Here are a few examples:

Twenty years to the end

In August, the edict sent the governor to the governor's affairs not to send a message to Polo Timur and Chakhan Timur to order peace.

When Polo Timur transferred troops from Shiling Pass to Jining, besieged the city for three days, and retreated to Tunjiaocheng. Chakhan Timur transferred to participate in the government, Yan Fengxian led troops to fight, and each of them defended the north and south of Shiling Pass.

In October, Zhao Polo Timur guarded Jining, and Polo Timur sent Baobao, Yin Xingzu, and Gao Toyin to Jining, but the defenders did not accept it.

In October, Chakhan Timur sent Chen Bingzhi and Zozhu to attack Polo Timur's army in Jining, and fought with Polo Timur's general Toleb and was defeated.

When the emperor had an order to Ji Ning Polo Timur, Chakhan Timur thought that he would use troops for several years, but through Ji and Jin to give his army, and to be strong and strong, Gou obeyed the order, then Peter used his soldiers to eat, but to use the division Bianliang, to find the river to Tunze, Lu to refuse, transfer the Yan'an army to fight in Dongshengzhou and other places, and then send Babusha to help it. Babusha said that the other army came by order, how dare I resist the king's order, Chakhan Timur is angry, kill him.

Twenty-one years

In the first month, he ordered the governor to send a letter to Polo Timur to return to the town, and sent an envoy to Chakhan Timur to call off the army. Polo Timur plundered Jining and other places, and Chakhan Timur rejected him with soldiers, so it was fate.

The prime minister and the senior government made Pu Buhua, insatiable, depending on the thickness of the bribes of the north and the south, and the secret decree of the south was thick, and the bribe of the south was thick, and the secret decree was to order you to merge with the north, and the bribe of the north was thick, and it was said that you were to merge with the south. Because of the deepening of grievances, the soldiers will not be able to understand it.

In February, Chakhan Timur garrisoned Huozhou and attacked Polo Timur.

In March, Polo Timur returned and sent Lieber and others to lead troops to Yan'an in order to enter Shaanxi.

In May, Timur of Chakhan invaded the land defended by Polo Timur with his troops.

In June, Chakhan Timur spies knew that the Shandong group of thieves attacked and killed each other, and Jining Tianfeng surrendered to the thieves and wanted to ask for it.

- The above battles between Chakhan and Polo all took place before Chakhan took Shandong. At that time, Tian Feng was determined to forge ahead and expand his territory one after another, even in such a situation, Chahan and Polo still could not unite with the outside world, and fought one after another for the Jining Zhulu. It can be seen that the discord between the two of them is actually almost to the point of incompatibility. Therefore, it can be inferred from this that it seems not impossible to give them a boost and say that the weaker side will be provoked with the help of external forces to provoke the stronger side.

Of course, the above views are still my personal opinions. If there is something wrong, please ask the students to bring it up so that they can continue to discuss.

——

Because the way back to Yidu has already been walked when I went to Datong, I came back a little faster than when I went. Six days later, Fang Congzhe and Shi 3,000 people returned to Yidu. In the middle of the night, Fang Congzhe took out the token and showed the defenders of the city. There are several types of Haidong's tokens. There is the lowest level, which is less urgent; There are higher levels, focusing on urgency; There are also the highest level, which are not only urgent, but also secretive. The general on duty of the defenders looked at the token, but it was the highest level, and knew that there must be an urgent and secret matter for this person. Urgently ordered his subordinates to open the city gates and let everyone into the city.

In order not to cause an alarm in the city, Fang Congzhe and the others wrapped their horse's hooves in cotton cloth, did not light torches, only used the dark night, did not stop, directly passed through the city gate, ran rampant on the street, and ran towards the palace of King Yan. When you get to the gate, show the token as well.

The gatekeeper did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly let the gate in, while his own guards ran fast and went to inform Deng She.

Deng She had just fallen asleep when he heard the news. I didn't have time to get dressed, so I only picked out a robe, put it on my body so-so, and even forgot to put on my shoes, walked a few steps before I reacted, turned back, put it on casually, and walked out, and said at the same time: "Please go to the study and meet me." ”

came into the study, and before he could sit down, Fang Congzhe and Shi 3,000 had arrived. Deng She hurried out, and at the door of the study, he held Fang Congzhe's hand, but he didn't ask about the envoy first, he looked Fang Congzhe and the others up and down carefully, and saw that everyone was dusty, and said sincerely: "You have worked hard! ”

"How dare you say that you are working hard for the Lord!"

"Everyone, please come in."

Everyone entered and sat down. Outside, the night is deep and silent; Indoor red candles, heating like spring. Deng She instructed his entourage to serve tea, and said to everyone: "When you come back late at night, haven't you eaten yet?" Then he instructed his attendants, "Go to the dining room and fetch some cakes and things to satisfy your hunger, and bring them quickly." ”

Shi Sanqian poured three bowls of steaming tea in a row, which was the only way to relieve hunger and cold.

After spending more than ten days on horseback in a row, the three thousand martial artists were born well, and Fang Congzhe, a scholar, couldn't stand it for a long time. After getting off the horse, he was still drifting when he walked, like a cloud. What's more, the legs on both sides have long been worn out. Although he was also hungry and cold, and his lips were dry, but because he was unwell, and unlike Shi Sanqian and others, even the tea was difficult to drink for a while. I only picked up the water glass and took two sips. The indoor heating is smoky, and it takes a long time before it gradually eases up.

Seeing that they had recovered, Deng She asked, "How is the situation of the envoy?" Has Polo ever been moved by you? How did he answer? How to say it? ”

After a few questions, it can be seen that Deng She's mood is urgent. is so anxious, but I can still endure to ask until now. When there are 3,000 rough people, people are not sensitive enough, but it's okay. Fang Congzhe was careful, and couldn't help but be moved, got up and knelt down, and replied concisely: "The minister sent an envoy this time, entrusted the lord Hongfu, and fortunately did not disgrace his life." ”

"Sure enough?"

"Exactly."

Deng She Huoran got up, rubbed his hands and walked around the room a few times, the joy was really hard to suppress, the smile on his face suddenly bloomed, the laughter was cheerful, he was relieved, he walked to Fang Congzhe's seat first, and patted him on the shoulder; Then he came to the seat of the three thousand, and smote him twice; Then he walked to the seats of several other members of the mission who were qualified to enter the room, either high-fived or shook hands, laughed loudly, and said, "I can do it!" ”

The entourage sent pastries and other things, and the three thousand people devoured them. Fang Congzhe couldn't eat it, so he slightly filled in two pieces, that is, put it down, and didn't take it anymore.

After they had eaten for a while, Deng She said, "I know that you have worked the road, and looking at the color of your faces, you are all tired, I am afraid that you will not have a good night's sleep for more than ten days, right?" You should have been allowed to rest, but because the stakes are high, and the day of my departure is just around the corner, I must know the details of this mission now. ......, let's do it, from the old age, the two of you stayed, I have something to ask. For the rest of you, please go and rest first. I don't have to go back to your house, but I will stay in my house tonight. ”

The attendants led the way and led the others out.

Deng She chased him out again and explained to his entourage: "A little pastry, it's hard to eat." The dining room will prepare some more food and send it to your rooms. The good wine that Haidong brought me was also taken out, and I invite you to drink it! He smiled and said, "This mission has been a success, and you have worked hard. However, due to the temporary time, this matter needs to be kept secret, so it cannot be rewarded immediately. Wait a little while, and in a little time I will have a reward. ”

Everyone said: "Be loyal to the lord and do your duty." And how can the ministers wait? This mission, so it was successful, and the credit was all due to Fang Jun. Although the ministers followed Fang Jun's left and right, they actually succeeded because of people, and they didn't dare to ask for rewards! ”

"Haha. Go first. ”

Deng She saw them go away, and whispered to his entourage, "Tell the people in the palace and others that it is forbidden to spread the news about the return of the philosophers tonight." Especially Lord Liu, you must not let him know! "The entourage responded to the order, and went to give the insider a gag order without mentioning it. Dunsher turned back indoors.

"Zhonghan's trip, being able to live up to its mission and complete the task is another great contribution to my Haidong. My heart is very relieved, my heart is very comforted! ......, what are you doing standing? Sit down yet. Zhonghan, you will tell me in detail about the process of your envoy and the situation of meeting Polo one by one. ”

After entering Datong City, he went straight to Polo's mansion and posted his name to see him. After meeting Polo, like this, the ministers persuaded him. He also summoned the ministers of the palace and consulted with them until midnight. The servants obeyed the commands of the lord and consulted with him.

"It has been decided, as long as the lord launches an offensive against Chahan, he will send troops from Datong to threaten Chahan's rear. At the same time, he put forward a condition, if the lord came to fight him before he could move, he also asked the lord to send troops from Yidu to threaten Chahan's flank. In a word, if the lord moves, Polo will cooperate with the lord; If Polo moves, please also ask the lord to cooperate. ”

"Good! Good! Deng She was overjoyed.

Although, Hong Jixun had previously made a plan for Haidong to take Xuzhou and collect Jinan. However, after all, Yidu has only experienced war, and it is easy to collect Jinan, and 20,000 people are enough; However, if this move leads to a fierce counterattack by Chahan, Yidu is bound to be difficult to support. It is true that Deng She had already made up his mind earlier, no matter whether Fang Congzhe's mission was successful or not, he would act in accordance with Hong Jixun's strategy; However, he was actually under a lot of pressure in his heart.

Fang Congzhe lived up to his mission, sent an envoy to Datong, and succeeded in one fell swoop. After convincing Polo and having Polo's echo, it can now be basically concluded that even if Yidu takes Jinan, the possibility of Chahan's counterattack will not be too great. It is equivalent to a sudden decrease in pressure, how can Dunshe be unhappy?

He praised Fang Congzhe and said: "Suitable talent, listen to Zhonghan's words, you use the example of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to talk about Polo, it's really wonderful!" Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are all Hanchen. Cao Cao's Guandu won, so he was able to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes; If the winner is Yuan Shao, maybe the one who coerces the Son of Heaven, it may be Yuan Shao. Chahan and Polo are really like Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in the late Han Dynasty!

"It's just, Zhonghan, how do you know that when you talk about Polo in this example, Polo will be willing to follow? After all, in the north today, there are not only Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, but also more of me Haidong. Aren't you afraid that if you use this example to talk about him, it will provoke him to join Chahan first and take my Haidong? ”

Deng She's question is reasonable. For Polo, in the end, Haidong is a foreign enemy and a rebellion; And Chahan, no matter what, and Polo are still "their own family". Fang Congzhe used this example to say that he was not afraid of backfire?

Fang Congzhe replied: "Whoever talks about people, the first thing is to find out the psychology of the other party first. Know what the other party thinks, and then you can have a target. Before the minister set off for Datong, he first went to the General Administration Department at the behest of the lord, and obtained a lot of information about Datong and Polo from Li Shousheng. And the ministers have some understanding of the situation in Jin and Hebei through their usual hearings.

"From this, combined with the intelligence of the General Administration Department and what the minister usually heard, the minister analyzed Polo's mentality."

"What is Polo's mentality?"

"He comes from a family of heroes, and he has never looked down on Chahan. It's a pity that although he looks down on Chahan, Chahan's credit to the Yuan court is far greater than his. When the two coincided, Polo looked down on Chahan on the one hand, but was deeply jealous on the other. The more you look down, the more jealous you become; The more jealous you are, the more you look down on you. If a person has no desire, even if he talks about it, it is useless; Since Polo has this mentality, the minister can naturally take the opportunity to speak to him. Yes, the minister used the example of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to talk about him. ”

"Oh. In this way, when you use this example to say that he wants to imply that whoever wins between him and Chahan can coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but in fact, you also want to use this to arouse Polo's jealousy of Chahan even more, and use his jealousy to promote him to have a desire to win. ”

"The lord is wise, and that's exactly what the minister means. Moreover, although Polo occupies Datong, food is actually in short supply. If there is a shortage of food, there will be a shortage of troops. And in the land of Jin and Hebei, the fertile place is Jining Zhulu. Jining was in Chahan's hands. Polo coveted Ji Ning for a long time. Earlier, during the Battle of Yidu, he was outside the garrison, why did he return to Datong because of a letter from Yao Pingzhang? Isn't it just for the Jining Zhulu?

"If his contempt, jealousy, and competitiveness of Chahan are just a state of mind, then his spying on the roads of Jining can be called a kind of 'want'. Now that the minister already knows his mentality and knows his 'wants', the rhetoric he gives him will of course be targeted.

In addition, the examples of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao actually have another meaning. It was to use this to give Polo a hint of the current situation. ”

"How?"

"The situation at the end of the Han Dynasty was not only Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, even if the general trend of the world was very similar to today.

"At the end of the Han Dynasty, there was the Yellow Turban Uprising. Today, there is an incident with my emperor Song Red Scarf.

"At the end of the Han Dynasty, the north and south were heroic, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu in the north, Dong Zhuo in Liangzhou, Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, Zhang Xiu in Nanyang, Liu Biao in Jingzhou, Sun in Jiangdong, Liu Zhang in Yizhou and so on. Among them, except for the Yellow Turban remnants, although most of them have the fact of separation, they still nominally still obey the Han family.

"And today, the north and south are heroic, the north is Chahan, Polo, and I Haidong, and the south is Wu Guogong, Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng, Fang Guozhen, Ming Yuzhen, Chen Youding, and so on. In addition to our Emperor Song and Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng, Fang Guozhen, and Chen Youding are also based on the Yuan family, although they have a separation. Compared with today, compared with the end of the Han Dynasty, Ming Yuzhen divided Shuzhong, just like Liu Zhang at the end of the Han Dynasty; And Wu Guogong, Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng and Jianghuai are like Sun and Liu Biao in the late Han Dynasty.

"'Saying three points' is popular in the world, and although Polo is a Mongolian person, it is expected that he must be very familiar with it. Therefore, the minister used this example to only talk about Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, but in fact, he was talking about today's situation. Therefore, 'unfinished', let him think about it, than the minister, the effect is better.

"Since today's situation is so similar to the struggle for power at the end of the Han Dynasty. So, it goes without saying whether Polo should learn from Cao Cao or Yuan Shao. As for my Haidong, the lord is not Dong Zhuo and Gongsun Zhan first-class; And if Polo thinks about it, he thinks very highly of himself, but maybe he will compare it with this. ”

Although Haidong is prosperous, but in terms of its territory, Liaoyang is not a rich place, South Korea, North Korea is the land of the beautiful people, and Yidu is lonely in the sea, and it is not easy to transport. There are still a lot of drawbacks. Polo thinks very highly of himself, even if he really regards Haidong as Dong Zhuo and Gongsun Zhan, it seems to be in the past.

Fang Congzhe finished his analysis, made a summary, and then said: "Yes, the minister first studied the mentality of Polo, and then understood what he wanted, and then alluded to him about the general trend of today, although Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were examples, why are you afraid that he will join Chahan and take my Haidong first?" ”

Dunsher laughed.

When he was at the right time, when he heard Fang Congzhe talk about the experience of meeting Polo, Deng She actually had a little speculation about why he would cite Cao Cao and Yuan Shao as examples. At this time, after listening to the explanation, it was exactly as I expected. I couldn't help but say appreciatively: "'Discerning', 'bold', it's a person like you!" ”

A lobbyist must first have a keen sense of insight; Secondly, you need to have outstanding courage. Only courage, no insight, go to the envoy, talk nonsense, can't say the other party's heart, what's the use of being bold? It's inevitable to lose your head. Or they only have insight and no courage, and when they see the monarch of the enemy country, they tremble and tremble, even if they see the other party's thoughts accurately, they can't say it, and they are rotten in the stomach, and it is useless. In the end, it is inevitable that your life will not be guaranteed. Fang Congzhe is eloquent, courageous, and has excellent insight. So, two missions, two successes.

Fang Congzhe was modest and said: "Since ancient times, there has been no lobbyist who is ten sure of everything. What the minister just said, although it seems to be eloquent, but in the end it is still a private speculation. I really didn't dare to hide it, the minister sent Datong this time, before he met Polo, before the words prepared by the minister were not told to him, he was also worried about it, and he was afraid that it would insult the king's life. Therefore, the success of the fluke is not the credit of the minister, but in fact, it is all thanks to my Haidong as the backing. Without the solidity of my Haidong, even if the minister has eloquence, what is the use? ”

Deng She admired again and again, and said, "Zhonghan, why should you be humble? If you are not sure, you dare to get up immediately at the request and go to Datong, which shows that you are as brave as a tiger. At the same time, it is also sharp like a tiger. Although you are a scholar, you are really a tiger in my Haidong! ”

"Before the minister sent the envoy, although he was not sure. But once the lord gave an order, even if he went to the soup, the minister would not give up. What's more, it's just an envoy to Datong? The lord praised it, but the ministers really didn't dare to deserve it! ”

When there were three thousand, the three of them looked at each other and smiled.

This comment later spread from the mouth of Shi Sanqian and was widely circulated. Since then, up and down Haidong, Fang Congzhe is often not called by his name, but even called him "Fang Hu".

In ancient times, there was "Wei Hu", and now there is "Fang Hu". Wei Rui, a famous general of the Southern Liang Dynasty, has always been frail, has not tried to cross the horse, Ya has the degree of the world, every battle, but he takes the tabula rasa, holds the bamboo Ruyi to advance to the command, supervises the soldiers, and the courage is invincible. And Fang Congzhe's strength is not enough to bind the chicken, and his skills are not enough for the enemy, it seems that he is a Xiushi, and he has less time than a month, and he has sent envoys before and after, but he first said Shicheng, and then Polo, and then folded the princes one after another. The two of them, one is a general and the other is an envoy, and they can be regarded as complementing each other, and they are both famous for scholars.

Speaking of the envoy's situation, Fang Congzhe asked: "It's the end of February now, and the lord said that my Yidu army is close at hand. I don't know when the date is set? ”

Fang Congzhe and Shi Sanqian were responsible for the heavy task of envoys, and they naturally knew Hong Jixun's strategy for a long time. Deng She didn't hide it from them, smiled, and told a day. Fang Congzhe was almost confused when he was galloping on the horse, he thought about it, remembered what day it was, pinched his fingers, and said in surprise: "Three days later?" Deng She bowed his head and said, "Yes, exactly." Shi Sanqian was also surprised, and interjected: "But three days later, isn't it just the day of the lord's wedding?" ”

The date of Deng She's wedding was set last month.

On this day, not only did the three thousand know it, but also Haidong knew it, Anfeng, Jinling, western Zhejiang, Jiangdu, including Taizhou and other places, Haidong also sent envoys to inform them. If you want to pass the news, not only the southern princes, even the northern capital, Chahan and other places, it is estimated that they will have heard about it a long time ago.

Deng She smiled slightly and said, "It's because I'm going to get married, so it's easy to use the army." ”

Fang Congzhe couldn't help but stroke his palms and praised: "Surprise! Good strategy! Shi Sanqian had some scruples and said: "It's just the lord's wedding, which is a happy event." Fighting on the day of the wedding? ”

Who is Dunshe? People who have ambitions and want to win the world, how can they care about this? He waved his hand and smiled, and said, "I know that Anu has a happy day, just when he is repelling Chahan; At that time, it was for double happiness. This time, I also want to receive good news from Jinan at the time of the wedding! A double happiness is also coming. ”

"Where is Tianfeng in Dizhou?"

"There is a secret letter from Liu Shijiu urging me, and I promised to borrow food from him. His 5,000 elite soldiers are ready. A few days ago, I sent a group of generals and colonels to Dizhou to coordinate and command. ”

Tian Feng was even more short of food than Yidu, and if he didn't agree, Deng She wouldn't lend him food. Without Deng She's borrowed grain, with his stored grain, he could hold out for a month or two at most. What happens after two months? There is no army without food. Therefore, even if he was unwilling in his heart, he had to agree to go to the army.

"Today, the lord told Tian Feng that the one who wants to take it is Xuzhou. However, what the lord wants is Jinan. Wait until the war begins? Will Tian Feng then? ”

When it comes to being able to speak well, Haidong may not be able to win Fang Congzhe; But when it comes to military and political affairs, Fang Congzhe is inevitably a little worse. Deng She said with a smile: "Tian Feng is short of food, just like Zhonghan said, he 'wants' whoever he wants, there is also food." As long as I give him food and let him fight, doesn't he have to fight somewhere? ”

Shi Sanqian said: "Three days later, the war will begin. Lord, it will take 10,000 or 20,000 people to attack Jinan. Is it time to transfer? ”

"As early as the day before yesterday, the transfer was completed. For the sake of secrecy, the soldiers who should be transferred from various departments are either disguised as Tuntian troops, or pretended to be civilian husbands, or they are pretending to change guards, and after more than ten days of transfer, they have now successively opened to the places west of Yidu. All these matters are the responsibility of Ah Guo and his Yidu branch as a whole. It's very secure. Everything is ready, only a war is needed. ”

"What started the war?"

What is the "reason for the war" is naturally the "Hanshan conflict" proposed by Hong Jixun. Deng She said: "I handed over the matter of starting the war to the General Administration. Since the last battle of Hanshan, Li Shousheng has sent a lot of manpower, and he has long had a thorough understanding of the activities and habits of Jinan Tatars.

"If nothing else, two days after tomorrow, it will be time for Jinan Tartars to go out of the city to post food. I arranged for two battalion leaders to be soldiers in the Hanshan area, and when the Tartars left the city, they would also pretend to be patrolling. When the two armies of the enemy and our army meet and fight, I have a strict order, only defeat and no victory. Be sure to induce the Tartar to chase after me and go deep into the belly of my Yidu. Whether it burns, kills, loots, or takes advantage of the situation to take our city or county. The bigger the momentum, the better.

"Just wait for this news to come out, I can pretend to be angry and tell Liu Shijiu that in order to ensure the stability of the rear, we must change the plan and take Jinan first."

"Food, ordnance, etc.?"

Deng She looked at Fang Congzhe and said with a smile: "Zhonghan borrowed a lot of grain from western Zhejiang, and there is still a lot left. I have already ordered Wu Henian and the provincial divisions to mobilize all of them and reserve them in one place. Enough for 20,000 people for two months. As for the ordnance, it has long been prepared. Tai'an and other cities have only transported a lot of artillery, trebuchets and other things, which do not need to be replenished, and they are enough to be used by our army. ”

It will definitely not take two months to hit Jinan. The reason why Deng She prepared two months' food and salary in advance was actually to prevent Chahan. Although Fang Congzhe said that Polo was moved, once the war started, he could never put his hopes on others. If Chahan is desperate, he must come back again, at least he will not be caught off guard. This is also a two-handed preparation, which can be described as an old strategy.

As for ordnance, in addition to large ordnance such as artillery and trebuchet, there are also grenades and mines produced by the ordnance lifting division. Because of the time relationship, there are not many of them, but you can also take advantage of the opportunity of this battle to try out the combat effect of these things.

Haidong is fully prepared, and he is about to hide from the sky under Liu Shijiu's nose and Chahan's unpreparedness. The battle of Ziyidu has only been a few months. If this battle is won, it will also show that Haidong will actively change from passive defense during the earlier hostile Chahan to active attack. Thinking of this, although Fang Congzhe and Shi Sanqian were tired, they couldn't help but be high-spirited.

It was dark outside, and the wind in the courtyard was heard from time to time.

Because of the arrival of Liu Shijiu, Haidong's counterattack on Chahan had to be advanced, and with the cooperation of many courtiers, the arrow was already on the string. The deep conversation was almost dawn, and Fang Congzhe and Shi Sanqian said goodbye, and were led by the entourage and went to the house to rest.

Although Deng She had hardly slept all night, he was not sleepy at this time, and he was in good spirits, pacing indoors, thinking carefully about what Fang Congzhe said when he met Polo, looking at the white window paper, listening to the rooster announcing the dawn, and knowing that the sky would be bright. He pushed open the window, greeted the cold wind, watched the dawn sky and clouds change, and after a while, he saw the red sun spraying thin in the distance, jumped out of the ground, full of pride, and taught his entourage: "Please Mr. Hong." ”
