Chapter VII

Wang Han, also known as Wang Khan, is the current leader of the Kereh tribe, whose real name is Toli, because he has been canonized by the Jin State, so he is also called Wang Khan, or Wang Han. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Needless to say, this is also a heroic figure on the steppe. In the early days, he leaned against the big tree of the Kingdom of Jin, and united with Temujin to defeat many enemies on the grassland, and his strength grew more and more. By now, he was already the strongest in the entire steppe, at least he thought so.

The one sent by the Jin State to canonize Wang Han again was the real power figure of the Jin State, and the Zhao King Wanyan Honglie, who was famous for his Wen Taowu strategy in the entire Jin State. This King of Zhao is the one who wants to go south to destroy the Song Kingdom, and then chase Qiu Chuji to Niujia Village.

Guo Jing stood next to the mount and asked calmly, "That person is Wanyan Honglie, the sixth prince of the Jin Kingdom?" ”

"Yes, he is Wanyan Honglie." Jebe replied behind Guo Jing.

"Good. Master Jebel, you say, how sure are we if we kill him now? ”

"My lord," Jebel said with an awkward title, "the Great Khan doesn't want to turn his face with the Jin people yet, at least not yet." So, please bear with me a little longer. ”

"Patience? No, Master Jebel, you've got one thing wrong. Guo Jing had a dangerous smile on his face, "Mr. once taught me that the best way to take revenge on a person is not to kill him, but to destroy everything he values, so that his life is worse than death." After that, he will die in weeping and wailing. ”

"Yes. This is how we deal with our enemies. ”

"So, I'm not enduring it, I'm enjoying the process of revenge." The young man, who was taller than everyone else around him, stretched his limbs easily, "I heard that this Wanyan Honglie is a hero among the Jin people, and he is bent on letting the Jin country dominate the world." Then, I will lead countless armies to destroy his country, destroy his clan, and dig up the corpses of their golden ancestors. Only then will I kill him. ”

Guo Jing's face was usually full of murderous words, and the equally majestic subordinates behind him were not touched by his words. The Mongols naturally worship the strong, and since Guo Jing has shown his unparalleled martial prowess on the battlefield, they will prostrate at his feet. In addition, Guo Jing was fair, and every seizure and income were distributed to them, so it was not an incomprehensible thing to obtain the loyalty of these people.

Temujin jumped off his horse and walked quickly towards Wang Han and Wanyan Honglie. He took advantage of the gap in the salute to look at his father-in-law Wang Han, and then said in his heart: He is really old, and he no longer has the courage and vigor of the past.

Wang Han stepped forward, took Temujin's hand and said, "Come, let me introduce you, this is the sixth prince of the Dajin Kingdom." Lord, this is my adopted son Temujin. ”

Wanyan Honglie is a very good-looking man, who has the courage to pick up a knife and cut people, and is not lacking in elegance. In someone's words, he has armor and strategy, and he is a good man in the world. Moreover, this man has a very good eye, which is evident from the fact that he advocated winning over Wang Han against Temujin. You must know that on the grassland now, everyone thinks that Wang Han's power is greater.

Wanyan Honglie looked at Temujin carefully for a while, and said with a laugh: "Okay, good, it really deserves to be Wang Han's righteous son, and he is also a hero." Wang Han, you are really blessed, in addition to such a good son as Sangkun, there are heroes like Temujin as your righteous son, which is really enviable! ”

The smile on Wang Han's face was suffocated, and then he also said with a smile: "If the prince has a heart, he can also choose a good man to be his son." We can't compare to Dajin in the Mongolian steppe, but there are still many good men. ”

"Oh," Yan Honglie became interested, he looked around, and then pointed behind Temujin with his horsewhip and said, "What about this young man?" I see that he is so majestic, it doesn't look like he is not a Mongolian. ”

Wang Han said: "Since the prince has taken a fancy to him, of course it is his blessing." Temujin, why don't you call the man behind you to come and worship the prince as your father-in-law! ”

Temujin looked back at Guo Jing, his eyes were slightly cold, and said, "Guo Jing, come here." ”

Only then did Guo Jing step forward and stand beside Temujin.

"The prince said that he wanted to accept you as a righteous son, how do you feel about it?"

Wang Han on the side didn't like it when he heard this, how could he talk like this when he treated a scary person? His son Sang Kun even shouted: "Temujin, the prince only gave you such an opportunity because he saw your tribe, why don't you hurry up and kowtow!" ”

Temujin ignored his sworn brother, and just said to Guo Jing: "Good boy, don't be afraid, you can do whatever you want." ”

"Yes, Great Khan." Guo Jing saluted Temujin, turned around, and said calmly and even with a little indifference: "I am very grateful for the kindness of the prince, but I can't recognize the prince as my father-in-law." ”

"Huh," Wan Yan Honglie stopped the impatience of the four masters behind him, and said curiously: "Why don't you want to?" Well, you're not a Mongol? ”

Winding and looking up at Guo Jing, who was standing on the ground like a mountain, he finally found that his face was very different from that of the Mongols. Originally, you can determine this just by looking at your physique, but now that there are a large number of muscular brothers in this realm, it's not easy to say............

"Because I have sworn to Tolei, then Tolei's father, Temujin Khan, is also my father. Therefore, I can only understand the kindness of the prince. ”

"It's a pity, it's a pity," Wanyan Honglie said "It's a pity" twice, and he didn't know what he was sorry for.

Wang Han once again accepted the canonization of the Jin State and confirmed his supremacy on the grassland, which made him smile a little from ear to ear. However, before he could rejoice for a few minutes, he was overwhelmed by the fact that Temujin had been appointed as the envoy of the Northwest.

He was thunderous in his big tent, and it was hard for him to make such a move when he was old.

"Father Khan, what do you mean by this Jin countryman?"

"What do you mean?" Wang Han looked at his son, who had nothing but brutality, and said angrily: "Aren't you afraid that we will annex Temujin's tribes, these damn guys!" ”

"Then why don't we take advantage of the fact that Temujin only brought a few men and horses over this time and kill him?" Sangkun's eyes lit up with a fierce light.

Wang Han was quite moved, but after thinking about it, he still gave up such a plan. He and Temujin once fought against a strong enemy in the north with the army of the Jin State, and knew that the Jin people had a strong army and many generals, so he did not have the courage to turn his face against the Jin people. Or rather, he used to have such courage, but now he doesn't.

"Hmph," Temujin casually threw the edict of the Jin people canonizing him as the envoy of the northwest on the top of the box, and then said to Guo Jing: "Do you know why the Jin people want to canonize me after canonizing Wang Han's righteous father?" ”

"It's for the sake of the big and small, so that there won't be a unified tribe on our grassland." Guo Jing replied.

"Oh. It seems that the national teacher has taught you a lot of things. Temujin laughed, "This time you saw Yan Honglie, what do you think of this person?" ”

"His hero, my enemy."

"Don't worry," Temujin said to Guo Jing, "It won't be long before we will have a decisive battle with the Jinren." ”

"Yes, Great Khan."

"You go and ask the soldiers to prepare, and we'll go back tomorrow."

Now that everything that had been done this time had been done, Temujin planned to go back as soon as possible. The daily consumption of grain and grass by more than 10,000 people and horses is not a small number, although the grassland is full of weeds, but the arrival of 10,000 more people makes the supply pressure in this vicinity very great. Therefore, the people of the steppe will not gather hundreds of thousands of people together without incident. If something like this happens, then someone must be trying to make a big news.

The next day, with the sound of a low trumpet, the soldiers under Temujin's command set up camp and set out one after another. Groups of soldiers left in an orderly manner under the command of hundreds and thousands of households at all levels, and there were still a considerable number of rangers on the periphery as the eyes and ears of the army. It was this kind of discipline and organization that surprised Wang Han and Wanyan Honglie, who were secretly peeping.

Wanyan Honglie once supervised the military affairs of Henan, so he naturally knew that there were many troublesome things in training the army, but he didn't expect to see such a majestic army on this grassland. Even the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom he brought did not have this kind of murderous aura. Probably, he thought, only the soldiers under the command of Emperor Taizu at the founding of the country could be compared. This also made him more determined in his decision, there must be no unified force on the grassland. Whether it is Temujin's annexation of Wang Han or Wang Han's annexation of Temujin is absolutely intolerable. The best-case scenario is to confront the small but elite Temujin and the large but relatively low army Wang Han, so that the Mongols can spend their energy in internal fighting.

Guo Jing led a thousand soldiers under his command as the rear guard of the army, walking at the back of the 10,000 people. As one of the strongest thousand households under Temujin's command, charging ahead and retreating behind is what they have been doing. He rode a tall war horse and stood on a high hill of earth, and the morning sun rising in the east cast a great shadow on the western land.

Looking at the camp of Wang Han and Jin Bing in the distance, Guo Jing knew that the next time he came here, it would be a different situation. Suddenly there was a clear eagle chirp overhead, and the soldiers who were pulling out heard the sound and saw a tall figure standing on top of the high post, the red cloak floating in the early morning breeze, and the figure set off was like a mountain in the wind.

"Who's that guy?" Because it was not in combat state, one of the marching soldiers asked, "Is it the warrior of our tribe?" ”

"Yes," replied a companion on the side, "that is the eagle of our Son-in-law Clan, the strongest warrior on the grassland, Lord Guo Jing Qianhu!" ”

The muffled sound of the horn sounded again, and the voices of different lengths conveyed the latest military orders. After hearing the sound of the horn, the thousand-person team lined up below the high post suddenly let out "Whew~~ Drink!" The roar made the hearts of those who looked at this side jump.

Guo Jing has already galloped down from the high post with a majestic war horse, and the war horses in his headquarters are all third-generation military horses that have been improved for more than eight years, which are already several laps larger than the horses of other tribes, coupled with his tall and burly figure, it attracted countless eyes when he passed by.

"Guo Jing! Our Eagles! I don't know who started shouting the first sound, and then the cheers came and went, making the whole marching group a little faster. An invisible light lit up from Guo Jing's body, and after the two characteristics of "Iron Wall" and "Haojie", he lit up his third characteristic "Military Heart".

The power of the domineering martial arts of the Beastmaster Fist began to show in him a power far beyond this world level, and in addition to the powerful power, all kinds of incredible supernatural powers also automatically emerged with the gradual improvement of his strength.

After Temujin returned to his own territory, Guo Jing also relieved himself of his duties as a guard, bid farewell to Tuo Lei and Hua Zheng, and returned to his Qianhu garrison with his subordinates.

It is not very appropriate to say that it is a thousand households. Eight years ago, there were just over 300 households, but now there are 50,000 or 60,000 permanent residents. All kinds of buildings stand on the ground, like giant beasts standing still. This place has now become another center of the Porch Jin clan in addition to the king's tent, not only because it has produced weapons and equipment that can supply the entire tribe and cultivated better war horses, but also because there is a person who is a Buddha, a celestial immortal, or an immortal incarnation in the eyes of the people, who has been preaching the scriptures and expounding the Dharma here.

This is the place where Guo Jing has stayed for the longest time, except for the king's tent of Temujin. He had herded sheep in the vicinity, and once rode on the back of a ram, and watched with a blank look as if he had come from another world. He had been digging holes in the earth, participating in the construction of buildings here, and he had seen how the place had become prosperous.

For Guo Jing, if there is one place in this world that can be called home, it must be here.

Just close to the city, yes, this can already be called a city. As soon as they approached the city, they were seen by people who were grazing outside, and their appearance and figure were so different that people could tell at a glance that they were one of them.

"Oh!" The herdsmen cheered loudly at them.

Under Temujin's thousand-household system, all the soldiers were drawn from among the adult males of the tribe. The hometowns of the soldiers who accompanied Guo Jing on the mission were also here, and there may be relatives among the herdsmen. So, they also cheered and greeted those people.

Guo Jing saw that his subordinates were all looking at him, thought about it, and said, "Disband now, and gather in the barracks the morning after tomorrow." ”

"Hooray!" The soldiers erupted in cheers, saluted him eagerly, and went home.

Su Butai got the news, and he had been waiting for them for a long time. At this time, he stepped forward, bowed, then stood still, and said loudly: "My lord, you are finally back, and the national teacher said that you will go to his side when you are free." ”

"Well, what's going on there, sir?"

"This ........" Subutai was originally a defeated prisoner, and was promoted to a hundred households because of his martial arts bravery, but he was not very good at words, he hesitated for a while and said: "I don't know if something happened." The national teacher just asked people to set up a tall platform at the foot of the mountain, and now there are many people going there. ”

"yes, I see." Guo Jing's calm and calm does not look like a fourteen-year-old boy at all. He first dismissed his subordinates, and then went home to visit his mother and told him what he had done this time. Li Ping put down the spinning wheel in her hand and looked at her son with satisfaction, as for what her son said, she didn't care at all.

By the time everything was arranged, it was already evening. Guo Jing set up a tent outside the house where his mother lived and slept inside. The next day, before the sun had risen, he awoke from his deepest sleep. Fetching water, cleaning the sheepfolds, washing the horses, and by the time the sun shone on the land, he had done almost all the business of the house.

Next, he took a step, as if slowly, in the direction of the foot of the mountain. He is already tall, and he has more than ten meters of force under his feet. In just ten minutes, he came to the foot of the mountain.

Hai Yunfan, who was sleeping peacefully on the high platform, felt the familiar qi, opened his eyes, stood up and stretched his waist, and recited a few lines of poetry, "Who dreams first, I know it in my life." The grass hall sleeps enough in spring, and the day outside the window is late. ”

These lines of poetry seem to have magical power, and the dense crowd under the high stage was also asleep, and they all woke up at this time. The men, however, sat down in their own places, and there was no sign of quarrel at all.

After Guo Jing listened to Hai Yunfan's nondescript poem, a smile couldn't help but appear on his face, he had heard this "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" several times, and naturally knew who was sleeping in the thatched hall.

"Ah," Hai Yunfan said happily on the high platform, "My friend, you are here." It just so happens that today we talked about the White Emperor City being lonely, so you can come up. ”

Guo Jing walked over, and the crowd parted like split seawater, leaving him a way forward. Without hesitation, he walked to the bottom of the high platform and jumped onto the platform more than ten meters high.

"Sir?" Guo Jing was about to ask Hai Yunfan which one he was playing, but he was pressed on top of the felt carpet.

Then Hai Yunfan sat on the edge of the platform and let his legs sway in mid-air.

"Yesterday, we talked about Liu Xuande in order to avenge the revenge of the two righteous brothers, and sent troops downstream, but it was broken by Lu Xun, the general of Eastern Wu, and he had to retreat to the White Emperor City."

The hearty voice enveloped the realm within a radius of several miles, and no matter who it was, it seemed as if it was being spoken in their ears. But it was clear that what was being said was just a story, but the audience below seemed to be listening to the Buddha's teachings and the Taoist ancestors' preaching, and their faces were solemn one by one.

“............. It's a pity that Xuande Gong fell, although he failed to complete the great cause, but he also fulfilled the oath of Taoyuan when he was righteous: righteousness knotted Jinlan, life and death together. ”

Hai Yunfan stood up, pretending to be Liu Bei, and said in a deep voice with a state of mind that was at the end of the road and the great cause was unfinished and unrewarded: "I miss me Liu Bei, from a humble background, wandering all over the world, but I am not willing to live a mediocre life." ”

"I want to be in the red dust, but I don't want to laugh for eternity if I miss my footing."

"The organs are exhausted, and the effort is in vain, and there are only three points of heaven and earth. I knew today, and I don't regret the beginning. ”

He faced the east, facing the rising sun, and his voice turned fierce and high-spirited.

"I can't live on my own, and I hold a strong bow inch by inch."

Exhale and raise your voice, and draw your bow and arrow. If there is nothing in the hand, how can there be a bow and arrows?

There is a bow in the eye and an arrow in the heart.

A streamer shot out from the young Hai Yunfan's hand, broke through the sky, and went straight to the rising sun. The silence in the audience was finally broken, and the exclamations were continuous.

"Sir!" Guo Jing stood up suddenly, he had already seen Hai Yunfan's body begin to turn into a streamer.

"Ah, friend Guo Jing," Hai Yunfan turned around and smiled on his face, "Time flies, time flies, so many years have passed in a flash." So, what did you hear and what did you feel about the story I told today? ”

Guo Jing didn't answer, just looked at the light overflowing from his body seriously, and then asked, "Sir, is this the way?" ”

"Dao?" Hai Yunfan shook his head, "No, it's just a rising glow." Although the way of this independent immortal is good, it is not my original intention, so I am leaving this world. Then, my friend, you will have to take the road yourself. ”

"I don't know much, but congratulations sir."

The light on Hai Yunfan's body became more and more dazzling, and the pure white light penetrated the heavens and the earth, and for a while, even the morning sun in the sky was covered by this warm and not dazzling light.

"The time has come, my friend, remember my words, the strongest power in this world is not hate, but love. You should never feel lost in the days to come........."

His figure flickered a few times, like a TV screen filled with snowflakes.

Guo Jing hesitated for a moment, a moment, a flick of his fingers, a Planck time, and then knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "Congratulations..... Master! ”

The pillars of light that pierced the heavens and the earth began to dissipate, starting from below, and the pillars of light went out one by one, and finally flickered in the sky once, and then disappeared without a trace.

The people in the audience knelt on the ground for a while, sticking their foreheads to the dirt on the ground, and they couldn't stand for a long time.
