Chapter 276: A True Man's Attitude to Mistakes
Besides, how can a person who is as proud as Huang Chongzhen admit his mistakes?
Even if he admits it, he will resolutely not change it.
Real men always accept mistakes with an open mind and resolutely do not change.
So Chongzhen followed the principle of "everything is for your good", and earnestly taught: "Think for yourself, if I didn't do that, what would you be like now?" ”
Wu Sangui remembered that in those days, even in front of Yuan Shuai's ancestral general, he was full of ambition as a "last general", and he was even more arrogant in the face of ordinary soldiers and even robes who had also been guarded.
Even in front of his cousin Dale, he looked like he was underbeaten......
In view of this, there was indeed a wave of disgust for him in Guan Ning's army.
If he continues to be arrogant, even if he is the little young master of the Wu clan of Jiangmen, even if the soldiers of the Zu clan led by Zu Dashou have already reached a good marriage with the Wu family, it is not conducive to Liaodong Jiangmen taking root in the Guanning army.
If it's really excessive, disgust and rejection are light, and if the strong-blooded Guanning teenagers are angry at the crown, then the ending is really hard to say.
Thinking of these, Wu Sangui's heart suddenly burst out, and he said: "Okay, Lao Tzu will be low-key in the future." ”
"You can teach." Shigejin nodded and forgave him.
The autumn breeze is cool, and in the twilight, riding a horse and strolling in the dry and cool corridor of western Liaoning, facing the night breeze blowing from the seaside, there is a unique and comfortable taste. Huang Chongzhen rode in front, Wu Sangui and Huang Ergou followed behind, and even their minds became a lot more open-minded.
More than 2,000 horsemen retrieved the weapons of their respective major generals and slowly followed.
Wu Sangui looked at Chongzhen's appearance of carrying a big iron sword whenever and wherever he was, and asked puzzledly, "Why do you always carry a broken sword weighing more than thirty catties?" Aren't you tired? ”
Shigejin turned his head to look at him and said seriously, "Don't you still understand the importance of weight training?" ”
Wu Sangui remembered that this guy hadn't put it down when he was fighting with him, so he said blankly: "If you untie it, won't I even be able to take your twenty moves?" ”
Chongzhen said: "Ten moves at most." ”
Wu Sangui said angrily: "Can't you save some face for Lao Tzu?" ”
Chongzhen also said angrily: "Lao Tzu is not here to promote your learning? Among all the students, you are the most disobedient, and you are the most troublesome to Lao Tzu! Good qualifications, all fucking feed the dogs! ”
Ergou said "Wang" at the right time, and Wu Sangui suddenly said angrily: "Do you want to eat my brain?" ”
Ergou snorted again, looking at his huge brain with dog eyes, as if he was thinking about where to put his mouth down.
Wu Sangui had no choice but to scold: "Wolf heart and dog lungs!" Act like a snob! ”
Chongzhen nodded and praised: "Not bad! I am already proficient in idioms and colloquialisms! ”
"You ......" Wu Sangui was furious at the crown, but in the end, he could only be defeated in a shallow smile, and said, "Yuan Shuai is gone, is it good or bad for my Guan Ningjun?" ”
Chongzhen encouraged him in an encouraging tone, "If you have an idea, keep talking." ”
Wu Sangui looked behind him vigilantly, and saw that the night reflected his subordinates hazy, and it seemed that it was not only the light that was cut off, but even the sound could be enveloped in it.
So he lowered his voice and said: "I always feel that Yuan Shuai's strategic thinking of 'fortifying the city and relying on artillery' has solved the urgent need of the Liaodong war situation, but it is not conducive to the long-term development of our Guanning army.
No, although my uncle held Jinzhou, he also seemed to be willing to stop at Jinzhou, at best, he took back the left and right Ertun and Xiaolinghe Fort, but he was still hesitating whether to march into Dalinghe Fort, let alone Xiping Fort, which was extremely close to the Liao River. ”
Chongzhen said: "That's why Yuan Shuai created us Guanning Iron Horsemen." ”
"But...... The goal he created for our Iron Cavalry was entirely to defend Guanning! ”
"You may not be able to understand the truth that you want to be fast, but how can Yuan Shuai not know? Do you really think that the Guanning Iron Cavalry, which has only been established for more than a year and has only more than 10,000 numbers, can fish and hunt in the Liaohe Plain, Songnen Plain, and Sanjiang Plain since ancient times. ”
Wu Sangui pouted: "This myth and legend has been shattered by you on Juehua Island. ”
"That's also taking advantage of the right time and place, and it's unexpected."
Chongzhen patiently explained, and as he spoke, he looked into the depths of the night from afar: "As an ancient fishing and hunting nation, the Jurchen clan still has some background between the white mountains and black waters. ”
Wu Sangui finally caught a small mistake on his part, and said, "Hey, did you learn geography from Mr. Private School?" The white mountains and black waters are behind, and in front is our Guanning defense line. ”
"I know, I'm just waiting for someone."
"Waiting for whom?"
"Waiting for a will, to be exact."
Wu Sangui was shocked: "The will, the emperor's will of his old man?" Don't scare me! What will? ”
Chongzhen turned his head to look at Wu Sangui and said: "A will that can make Lao Tzu completely override you, the capital division, and make you convinced of Lao Tzu." ”
"My capital is my eldest uncle, who used all his connections and spent countless amounts of money to be promoted, why do you ...... a big soldier with no background?"
Wu Sangui suddenly said angrily as he spoke: "You don't want to scold me!" I don't believe it! ”
Chongzhen stretched out his slender arm and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him, and said, "Don't get excited, let's go forward to greet him, and we will know whether what I said is true or false." ”
"It could never be true! It must be fake! ”
Wu Sangui said in a tone that almost swore an oath, and then took the lead in riding his horse and galloping forward, and shouted almost paranoid in his heart, "The emperor personally decreed, so why would he be knighted?" Guerrilla? Counselor? Oh my God, it's not going to be the deputy commander-in-chief!
Impossible! Absolutely impossible! That's an unprecedented promotion speed since the founding of the Ming Dynasty! But if it is true, can a certain Wu Sangui still have a bright future under his suppression in this life? ”
Chongzhen followed behind Wu Sangui with a smile, looking at his angry and hazy back, and was extremely relieved.
The young father-in-law, Gao Qiqian, was honored to get the errand to go to Guanning, Liaodong, to convey this earth-shattering will.
According to his own boasting before, he is related to the once beautiful Gao Di Gao.
Gao Di naturally denied it vigorously, and after "Ning Yuan's great victory, Gao Di fell off the horse", he became a street rat, and his former colleagues who were eunuchs ignored him.
used to be shy and stammered at his high dive, but naturally he was afraid to avoid it.
Gao Di came to an abrupt end, but because of his years of hard study of military books, his status among the eunuchs has risen, especially in the palace, and he has a small place.
Wei Zhongxian deliberately handed over this question, which was the first to open the precedent for the promotion of the Ming military general, to this obedient and useful young eunuch to convey, and he also had the intention of deliberately cultivating.
The most important thing is that Gao Qiqian, the young eunuch, is still in good shape, and he will deliver the decree in an urgent way of 800 miles, which will not be ruined halfway, and can fulfill the emperor's wishes, killing two birds with one stone.
In order to avoid setting off the trend of public opinion in advance, Gao Qiqian rode one person and one ride, and went out of Beijing in a low-key manner.
But as soon as he arrived at Shanhaiguan, Huang Chongzhen, who was far away in Jinzhou, had already learned the news.
Therefore, this guy made full use of the fast channel of the Guanning scouts to transmit military information, and insisted on the time, creating a regrettable scene where the front foot just led the team to the expedition, and the high dive back foot entered Jinzhou, and it was still at night, Zu Dashou finally knew why this kid chose to go out at this point in time.
Looking at the beautiful father-in-law on the Taishi chair who had poured a big pot of herbal tea and had just taken a breath, the tall and burly Zu Dashou felt hot in his heart, so he rubbed his hands nervously and said: "If Father-in-law Gao doesn't want to stay in Jinzhou for a few days, someone can send someone to summon that kid back." ”
Gao Qiqian thought that this tiger general was nervous because of his identity as the father-in-law, and there was a burst of joy in his heart, but there was an anxious look on his face, and he said: "The emperor is very anxious, and he can't delay." The general only prepared a table of food for X, and then prepared some dry food and tea, and after a little rest, he went to chase after General Huang Chongzhen. ”
"When I first came to Guanning, a big locust, it was only less than two years, and he jumped into the deputy chief soldier, which is really amazing." Zu Dashou smashed his mouth, and he didn't know whether he was happy or worried, or coveted the beauty of high diving.
In short, he immediately called his guards and went to prepare according to Gao Qidive's requirements.
He himself sat on Gao Qiqian's side, "father-in-law is long and father-in-law is short", shushing the cold and asking to warm up.
Gao Qiqian endured the chill all over his body, and after a full meal, he grabbed the dry food and slipped away, lest he stay in Jinzhou for one night, and his precious first night would be deprived by this rough man.
Zu Dashou was very sad about this, and reluctantly stood on the north gate of the town to see him off.
In order to ensure the safety of Gao Qiqian, he also sent a few personal soldiers to protect him, and in order to show his respect for this eunuch and the former celebrity, Zu Kuan, who was given by Yuan Keli and has been promoted to garrison, is one of them.
Under the protection of the ancestors of the ancestors, he quickly found the traces left by Huang Chongzhen's thousand-man cavalry, and followed the footprints to find them, but he couldn't catch up no matter what.
Gao Qiqian once thought that this was the reason why the bearded man was guarding the foreign workers.
However, after urging a few times to catch up, Zu Kuan and the others did the same, they didn't dare to urge anymore.
Because he has thoroughly seen the speed of Guan Ning's iron cavalry, as well as the strength of the march.
Even if he studied hard and exercised diligently, it was beyond his reach.
Gao Qiqian felt that his ass was so painful without his balls, but in order to witness the miracle of a small soldier as soon as possible, it took only two years to be promoted from a single leap to the deputy chief soldier, and he felt hot in his heart and full of strength.
No matter how hard and tired you are, you have to grit your teeth and persevere.
(Playing a small character relationship, there is a certain intention to put the character of Gao Qiqian here.) )
