Chapter 457: Unexpected Identity

On horseback, Xiao Fudie is on his left side, and often turns the horse's head back to the baggage camp behind to take care of it, when Yifeng arranged for her to take over the task of Xiugu, she has already developed a habit, although this rich land is also an important granary of Dawu Kingdom, known as the land of fish and rice, and there is no worry about the supply of food at all, but it is always right to be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years.

On the right side of the fire monkey is Wang Jun, he also often runs back and forth, looking at the overall marching state of the Wind Roar Army, he is a strategist placed by Shuli next to the fire monkey, or called a military advisor, but the fire monkey is very uncomfortable in his heart, and always feels that he is here to spy on him.

But the fire monkey is not a fool, he can't see the impatience on the surface, and often asks him for advice, I have to say, Shuli said that Wang Jun is a strategic, calm person, it is really good, from him the fire monkey learned a lot of military strategy, but also noticed that Wang Jun is not strong outside, he still has a lot of ink in his stomach.

Even though Wang Jun was arrogant and taciturn, the fire monkey was notoriously the sworn enemy of this stuffy gourd, and no matter how tightly the plug was stuffed, he had a way to pry it open.

At present, under the entanglement of the fire monkey, it may be that the battle situation is easy during this time, plus today's sunshine, beautiful rivers and mountains, Wang Jun rode a horse beside the fire monkey, and even talked like a river, and talked eloquently: "Jiangnan can be called the most prosperous place in Dawu country, Jiangzhou, Qingzhou, Wanzhou, especially the first two, rich and prosperous, can be called the treasury of Dawu country, the river network is vertical and horizontal, water transportation is developed, commerce and trade are prosperous, not only that, this kind of land with abundant water and soil, agriculture is also very developed, rice fields are everywhere, river fishing, known as the land of fish and rice, The mulberry fields are full of slopes, and there are many silkworm farmers, who support the weaving industry of the entire Dawu country by themselves. It can be said that these are the great riches brought by the numerous rivers. โ€

The fire monkey stuffed the mulberries he had just collected from the mulberry trees on the hillside into his mouth, and muttered, "Is the river really so important, isn't the official road also very convenient, why aren't those places in the northwest where the official road is developed as rich as here?" I've heard that the horses in the northwest are very powerful, and they are so fast that they can't compare to the slow boats. โ€

Wang Jun glanced at him, and his tone was a little contemptuous: "How many places have you been to, and you know the comparison?" The so-called water, soil, water and soil, the two complement each other, one is indispensable, there is soil and no water in the northwest, then it is bound to be arid and barren, crops grow in the land, the people take food as the sky, crops can not grow, how can other industries survive and develop? โ€

He saw the fire monkey's indifferent look, sighed, and continued: "Those boats in the river, although they look slow, but inadvertently, they have been thousands of sails, a thousand miles a day, in the gentle terrain of the south of the Yangtze River, the river is stable, there is no obstacle, and the speed of river transportation is very fast. โ€

The fire monkey glanced at Wang Jun and said seemingly casually: "How do you know so much, have you traveled to various states in the Great Martial Kingdom?" โ€

"Read more." Wang Jun said lightly: "The so-called Xiucai doesn't go out, he knows everything in the world, there is a golden house in the book, and Yan Ruyu in the bookยทยทยทยทยทยท"

"Okay, okay, don't read it." The fire monkey threw away the mulberry in his hand, clapped his hands, and said, "It's only been a few days since I got rid of the book ceremony, and you nerds who are good at dropping book bags have started to read in your ears again. โ€

Wang Jun snorted coldly and said: "When the book is used, you will hate less, and when it comes to the critical time, you will know the great role of us nerds." But then again, these rich industries gradually affected the culture of Jiangnan, where the entire Dawu Kingdom was enriched with literati and ink writers, there are no towering mountains, gentle and beautiful landscapes, always under the delicate and graceful white mist, the gentle and beautiful women of Jiangnan, speaking fragrant soft words, drinking sweet wine, brewing fragrant tea, which literati and ink writers can resist these temptations. โ€

The fire monkey didn't care: "Isn't it just greedy for enjoyment, as long as you have money, where is it not like this, you have to run to the south of the Yangtze River?" โ€

"What do you know!" Wang Jun was a little angry, and said: "One side of the water and soil to raise one side of the people, the gentle landscape can cultivate a gentle and peaceful heart, there is a unique water and soil environment, how many indifferent and quiet literati and ink writers have been bred, and how many excellent poems, calligraphy and paintings have been created, the so-called Zhong Ling Yuxiu, is really a suitable praise for Jiangnan." How can these great arts be done with money? โ€

The fire monkey pursed his lips, he didn't care about these sour words, but everyone has their own way of living, and this kind of sour way of living may be more suitable for them.

Wang Jun seemed to be immersed in the wonderful fantasy of Jiangnan, and continued: "As a result, Jiangnan has prevailed in a culture that is enough to leave a name in the annals of history, the culture of celebrities and gentlemen, there is a way that is 'true celebrities, self-merry', indulge in the landscape, wander in the prosperous world, everyone is drunk and I wake up alone, chic and uninhibited, wandering like a wreck, how happy!" They talk about the country, argue about morality, the Tao is not clear, the object is not qualified to ignorant, the temperament is cultivated in this graceful atmosphere, and the mind becomes more pure, just like the kind of 'nothingness', 'emptiness' and the realm of returning to the basics pursued by Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, which are everywhere here, what a wonderful place! โ€

The fire monkey said coldly: "How did I hear that the soldiers of the Jiangzhou Legion and the Wanzhou Legion are weak, and they must have been contaminated with this atmosphere of empty-eyed and indulgent pleasures!" โ€

A word woke up the dreamer, Wang Jun suddenly came back to his senses from the fantasy just now, sighed, glanced at the fire monkey, and said lightly: "Yes, Jiangwan Erzhou, even with Qingzhou, because the rich and prosperous scene here blinded their eyes, whether it is the celebrities and gentlemen in the south of the Yangtze River, whether it is singing and dancing, or money everywhere, these should not be involved with the legions guarding the state border, because the people's peace and contentment are guarded by them, if they are also indulged in the wine of this prosperous world, they can't afford to be intoxicated, Then once the danger comes, there are only two outcomes. โ€

"Huh." The fire monkey sneered: "There are two other results, aren't they scared?" โ€

Wang Jun shook his head and said, "This is the first reaction of the weak people, and it is also the reaction of most of the Jiang Wan Legion soldiers. They originally thought that as long as they followed Emperor Wu's order and lifted their swords, guns, swords and halberds to demolish the Buddhist temple, those Buddhist monks would definitely flee from the wind, and they would not have to carry out the golden dragon order to slaughter the monks. But to their surprise, there were really many Buddhist monks who rose up to resist, and gradually formed a force, killing many of their comrades in battle. After the initial massive panic, the remaining Jiang Wan Legion soldiers would have a second reaction. โ€

The fire monkey stared straight at Wang Jun.

Wang Jun glanced at him and said, "That is to make it even worse, even more vicious than they imagined." โ€

The fire monkey felt a pang in his heart: "How do you know so much?" โ€

Wang Jun said coldly: "Didn't you ask me before if I had traveled to the border of Dawu Kingdom? I didn't, but what I know is not all in the book, because I am a member of Jiangnan Famous Scholars! โ€

The fire monkey instead raised his curiosity: "Are you also prodigal, drunk and obsessed?" โ€

"No," Wang Jun's eyes showed a complicated look: "Although I think I am a member of Jiangnan celebrities, I am not the kind I just said, there are many kinds of celebrities, and I am the most rigid kind of celebrities, that is, to join the army and serve the country!" โ€

The fire monkey pulled the reins violently, looked at Wang Jun with sharp eyes, and said, "Then you used to be the general of the Jiang Wan Legion?" โ€

The little Fu Die beside her also unconsciously exuded a powerful aura, she didn't trust people very much, and now she almost treats Wang Jun as an enemy and a spy!

Wang Jun also stopped his horse, and the ten thousand monks behind him were far away, and they didn't hear their words, but when they stopped, he hurriedly ordered the army behind him to temporarily stop advancing and rest.

He lowered his head, as if recalling a lot of unpleasant scenes, then nodded lightly and said, "I used to be, a deputy general of the Wanzhou Legion. โ€
