Another day, in the palace of the defense envoy, Cao Cao summoned all the brothers to discuss the matter of going to the Jin Kingdom.

When the brothers saw each other, it was inevitable that there would be a lot of excitement, some people who didn't know each other, but also introduced him to be familiar with each other, and stayed until they were full of wine and food, and everyone was lively enough.

"Our trip to the sea is very important, and now in China, few people know the Jurchen and the truth, even if they are senior members of the DPRK and China, they only say that they are savages who are good at fighting. However, if you think about it carefully, how could Liao, a huge country with a century-old foundation, be easily defeated by savages? Among the aliens, there will be a handsome man, and we are going to see for ourselves what kind of people his founders are! ”

The crowd was thrilled to hear his brilliant views and generous words.

Cao Cao showed a smile and looked at Xu Guanzhong: "Originally, I waited for this, but I had to smear my eyes and just look at it." Fortunately, the Guan Zhong brothers, their fathers and ancestors have been talented for generations, and they are accustomed to the geography of the world. It is the land of Liaobei, Guan Zhong also went with Uncle Xu when he was a child, and he is quite familiar with his local characters, so today I will ask him to explain it to his brothers, first open my eyes, and then go to the north, then you can have a target. ”

When everyone heard this, most of them were pleasantly surprised, especially those who were sure to go with Cao Cao, and they all looked at Xu Guanzhong expectantly.

This section was originally discussed by Cao Cao and Xu Guanzhong, Xu Guanzhong naturally did not shirk, stood up, first put together his ancestral bird picture on the wall, first pointed out where Dengzhou was, and then pointed to a place in the upper right corner, and slowly spoke.

"Brothers, please see, this place is called Yingge Ridge, and its place is surrounded by water on three sides, and it is the place where the Jurchens originated! His clan has a very long heritage, when Zhou Tianzi was the son, he sent tribute, and the Zhou Dynasty carried him as a prudent person; And the Han Dynasty, also called the Lou people, they hide in the northern mountains, slash and burn, shoot and fish, produce good red jade, mink skin, popular in Chang'an; Later, the Three Kingdoms were in turmoil, and the Rulou people surrendered to the Wei State, and when they arrived in the Jin Kingdom, they were called Beji people. ”

Zhou Tong couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "Beji is unlucky, we all ask for auspiciousness, but they have no taboos." ”

Xu Guanzhong said with a smile: "Hundreds of miles are not customary, he is thousands of miles apart, and the customs are naturally very different. ”

And a point somewhere on the map: "To the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Emperor set up Heishui County here, called it Heishui Yan, and later the Liao State occupied the north, called it the Jurchens, and divided it into raw and ripe, mature Jurchens were really kingized, most of them obeyed the orders of the Liao State, and the Jurchens spread poverty, and the royal family of the Jin Kingdom Wanyan Department was one of the Jurchens. ”

"It is said that there are many Jurchen tribes, each of them is in their own way, decades ago, Wanyan came out of a luxurious leader, called Wanyan Wugunai, this person trained warriors internally, and fought against various tribes outside, conquered more than ten tribes in a row, called the alliance, and appointed himself as the leader of the alliance, and the Jurchen language was called Dubo Jilie. It happened that the Liao people were trying to govern the Jurchens with Jurchen, and when they saw that Wugu was a hero, they gave him the post of envoy of the festival, and after the death of this person, his son Keli Bo took over his father's position. Brothers, at this moment, the bowl is not easy to get along with, he fought in all directions under the banner of the Liao State Festival, and expanded the alliance to more than 30 tribes. ”

Cao Cao sighed: "I waited for the Dudao Jurchen Qixing to be sudden, if it wasn't for Guan Zhong's explanation, who knew that his family had worked hard for three generations." ”

Xu Guanzhong said with a smile: "Brother, if you talk about it in detail, it is actually four generations - after the death of Libo at that moment, the eldest son Wu Yasu succeeded as the leader of the alliance, and fought in a lazy battle, broke Goryeo, and collected the Jurchen homeland, and the tribe became stronger and stronger, and gradually became taboo by the Liao State. There is a name Wanyan Aguda, is the second son of Keli Bowl, the brother of Wu Yasu, especially Haojie, when he was young and strong, he assisted his father and brother in the battle, all of them were invincible, and because of the heavy taxes and the hardships of the people, he strongly persuaded his brother to be exempt from taxes for three years, so he collected the hearts of all the people. ”

When all the heroes heard this, they immediately applauded and said: "What kind of bone is this, it can sympathize with the people, and it is a really good man." ”

Xu Guanzhong continued: "When the Liao Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi ascended the throne, the Khitan nobles pressed the Jurchens day by day, and the ginseng, mink, famous horses, Beizhu, Junying, beeswax, linen, etc. produced by the Jurchen tribes were originally extremely heavy, but they were plundered by those nobles from time to time, so that the people were not able to make a living. ”

Cao Cao Zhengse said: "It seems that such a foreign race, if there is a heart of disobedience, it should be slaughtered as much as possible, and the rest of the people should not let him live in one place, it is appropriate to be included in the division of the clan, and after a few decades, there will be no such clan." If this policy cannot be carried out, then when the grace and power are equally important, the reward and punishment are measured, driven as the striker, the reward is rich, and the force is cut by the yin. Otherwise, if you blindly abuse kindness and leniency, your heart will be arrogant, you will blindly blackmail and treat it poorly, and your hatred will be poisonous, which is not a good strategy for restraint. ”

Xu Guanzhong listened to it in his ears, tasted it carefully, his eyes became brighter, and he blurted out praise: "Brother's words are really a strategy for the country." ”

Then he shook his head: "However, Emperor Tianzuo didn't know this truth, Song Zhenghe three years, Liao Tianqing three years, Wanyan Wu Yasu died, brother and brother, Ah Guda took over the power, he took over the authority of the eldest brother, and immediately raised troops against Liao, just because the Liao people are rich and poor and extravagant, so in addition to the Jurchens, there are also many poor Han people, Khitan people, Bohai people, Murwei people, Tieli people, and Wuja people to join the service. ”

Lin Chong listened to it and sneered again and again: "Poor and extravagant, not to mention the magnates of the Liao State and the magnates of the Song Dynasty, isn't it a raccoon dog?" ”

Song Jiang said: "The Liao State stands with martial arts, if you talk about the front of the army, it is really above the Great Song Dynasty!" According to what Brother Xu said, what Wu Gu Nai, Keli Bowl, Wu Yasu, the three generations of ancestors and grandchildren can be called heroes, but none of them dare to oppose Da Liao, but this guy has just ascended the throne, and he rebelled, which shows that this guy's heart and means are really strong and better than his father and brother! ”

Xu Guanzhong said solemnly: "Brother Song said this to the joints!" It stands to reason that he raised his troops in a hurry, but this person was born good at fighting, and won the hearts of the people, and defeated the Liao soldiers in Ningjiang Prefecture and Chuhedian, less than two years, he drove the Liao State to the north, unified the northern borders of the mature Jurchen tribes, set up the capital Ningfu, established the Great Jin State, and called himself the 'Great Sage Emperor', and the year name was collected. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Tong slapped his thigh: "My brother miscalculated, I should bring Brother Li Gon here, he is nicknamed 'Flying Sage', and he is just compared to this Great Sage Emperor's 'Big Bone'." The crowd laughed.

Xu Guanzhong also smiled: "Brother Zhou Tong should not underestimate this bone, when I was a child and my father traveled, I heard that this person is famous. At that time, the Jurchen had not yet raised troops, and there were Liao Dynasty envoys to go to it, just to see Yan Agu beating the back bow passing, Liao envoys saw that he was extraordinary, so he pointed to the bird order to shoot it, Ah Gu sent three arrows, shot down three birds, and the Liao envoy exclaimed as 'strange man'. ”

Zhou Tong was unconvinced, pursed his mouth, pointed at Hua Rong and said: "That envoy has no knowledge, if he sees my brother Hua Rong's ability to shoot geese, wouldn't he call him a 'god man'?" ”

Hua Rong smiled faintly, and his expression was quite approving.

Xu Guanzhong said: "Another time, Ah Gu hit the Su (Yinhe) Shi Lie Department to sit down, there is a mountain in the south, everyone shoots it, all can't reach it, Ah Gu hit an arrow, and then measured, more than three hundred and twenty steps away, the Jurchen famous marksman Tan Du He also shot it, inferior to it a hundred steps. ”

Zhou Tong suddenly opened his mouth in shock, Hua Rong also changed slightly, and said in surprise: "Three hundred and twenty steps...... With such a shooting power, he really can be called a strange man! ”

You must know that the selection of soldiers in the Tang Dynasty was good at shooting with 60 steps on the target, 50 steps for good shooting in the Song Dynasty, and as for the range, 100 steps were good - such a comparison, you can know how amazing 320 steps is.

Xu Guanzhong added: "At that time, the Jurchens were poor, and most of them did not have iron bows and crossbows, and the best thing was to use the horns of the beast as the bow and the beast string as the arrow. In the first battle of Ningjiang Prefecture, it was this guy who shot and killed the Liao general Yelu Xie Shi with an arrow, and the Jurchens won a great victory. ”

Hua Rong nodded silently, and the battle intent in his eyes gradually surged.

Xu Guanzhong said again: "Let's talk about the battle of Hedian, Xiao Sixian, the capital of the Liao Dynasty, Xiao Wuna, the deputy capital, led an army of 100,000 to attack the Jurchens, and there were only 3,700 people under the command of Ah Guda. ”

Fan Ruiqi said: "The wind is so coincidental? Isn't there also someone among his Jurchens who can call the wind and rain? If so, have a good fight with him. ”

Cao Cao has always boasted of being a hero, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but sigh: "This guy can win the hearts of the people, serve the generals, train soldiers to fight, and have such martial arts and bravery, worthy of the word hero!" ”

Sun Li said: "Unexpectedly, Brother Xu is so knowledgeable, in fact, Sun has always been curious, this guy broke 700,000 with 20,000, but he didn't know how to kill?" ”

Xu Guanzhong's face became more and more solemn, and he said solemnly: "For this matter, I went to Liao to find the generals who participated in the war and inquired more, so I knew a little bit about it, how are you?" But when the Jin Kingdom was first established, Emperor Tianzuo was furious when he heard it, and he poured troops and horses to attack, with an army of 700,000, and the Jin people couldn't help but tremble when they heard it, and many people howled all night......"

Sister-in-law Gu said: "I know that those wild people are wolf-hearted, but I also know that I am afraid. ”

Sun Xin listened attentively, was interrupted by his mother-in-law, and said angrily: "You talk a lot, don't talk too much, and listen to how that Aguta responds." ”

Sister-in-law Gu was angry, and punched her husband in the back, causing Sun Xin to fall and glared at her mother-in-law, but she laughed and said, "How to deal with it?" Isn't it a punch in the head and a fight to survive? ”

Sun Xin was about to sneer at each other, but Xu Guanzhong clapped his hands and laughed: "Sister-in-law is really a heroine among women, what you say is piercing the heart of a bone!" ”

Sister-in-law Gu laughed, crossed her thick waist, looked forward to herself, and everyone was curious: "Say it quickly." ”

Xu Guanzhong said slowly: "Ah Gu saw that the soldiers and civilians were frightened, but he gathered all the people together, waved his knife in public, cut his face, and cried to the sky: 'It began with you and others raising troops, Gai Ruo Khitan was cruel, and wanted to establish a country on its own. Today, what can I do? If you don't fight to the death, you can't do it. If you kill my people, you will welcome you and turn your misfortune into a blessing. 'Brothers, do you listen to what he says?' He clearly said that if everyone can't fight to the death, it will be difficult to win, but he deliberately said, it's better to kill my Wanyan clan, and you surrender. ”

"What a radical method!" Shi Qian shouted: "Those people have a good life for a few days, how can they be willing to be arrested and exploited to death by his Khitan again?" ”

Xu Guanzhong smiled: "Exactly! When everyone saw Emperor Aguta's behavior, they all roared, drew their swords and cut the ground, and swore that they would not retreat! ”

Ruan Xiaoer pulled out a knife and slashed a few times on the ground, looked at his brother Ruan Xiaoqi and said, "Isn't this my brother's favorite trick?" Are you a Jurchen? ”

Ruan Xiaoqi said angrily: "I crawled out of the intestines of a mother with you, I am a Jurchen, are you a Han Chinese?" ”

Everyone knocked over the two of them with their fists, held down their mouths, and urged Xu Guanzhong to speak quickly.

Xu Guanzhong said: "At the moment, the Jin State can fight all the soldiers, get 20,000 people, the two armies are decisive in the Hubu Dagang, at that time the Liao soldiers are all over the mountains, A Guta pointed to the position of the enemy's Chinese army, and shouted loudly: 'Tianzuo is there, and if you kill it, you will win.'" Then he led the whole army to assault the Liaozhong army, the generals under his command, everyone sacrificed the conflict, the Jin soldiers were excited, all with one to block the hundred, and suddenly killed the invincible momentum, the Tianzuo Emperor was afraid of the hope, the royal car retreated first, and the Liao soldiers were defeated. ”

Everyone listened to the hair, Cao Cao sighed: "I tasted the Song Liao war, Taiping rejuvenated the country for four years, Song Taizong personally conquered Youyun, and Yelu Xiuge fought against the Gaoliang River, at that time the forbidden army was ten times more brave than today, the two sides were worthy of the opponent, but Yelu Xiuge's style of play, but it was the same as Ah Gu, with all the cavalry to the Huangluo umbrella cover fierce attack, Yelu Xiuge was wearing three creations, Wu shouted a fierce battle, ridiculous Song Emperor is not good at fighting, scared to flee, the Song army was defeated. Unexpectedly, more than 100 years later, the Khitan re-enacted the old things, and the decline of its national fortunes can be seen. ”

Lin Chong sighed angrily: "What my brother said is good, but the national fortune of the Song Dynasty is still not as good as the Khitan." ”

Cao Cao stood up, patted his chest, stretched out his hand to point to everyone present, and said in a deep voice: "The Zhao family's luck is allowed to decline by himself, but the luck of Huaxia is bound to flourish!" Otherwise, how could the sky give birth to martial arts? Why are you born? ”

His words, really have the courage of "the world is prosperous, I bear it", a group of heroes only feel that their breath is stagnant, when they look at Cao Cao, they only feel that his short and strong body, every move, all have the spirit of a king. Immediately, in his chest, there was also a sense of pride, eager to put on armor and get on the horse, and kill this person to the end of the sky, so that he could enjoy himself.

Qi Qi got up, clenched his fists and shouted: "I am willing to follow my brother to conquer the Quartet and kill a permanent foundation for my Huaxia!" ”

Cao Cao laughed, pointed to the north and said, "Although there are heroes in foreign races, there are no heroes in China?" On this trip to the north, let him know why thousands of years later, only the people of Stusz dare to call China the kingdom of China! ”

When everyone heard this, they roared in unison, Ruan Xiaoqi's face was flushed, he pulled out his knife and cut the ground, and said loudly: "That's right!" On this trip to the north, Xiao Qi was shattered, and he didn't let those aliens underestimate my Han family! ”

Sun An stepped forward and knelt down and hugged Cao Cao: "Brother, the younger brother doesn't want to be the general of the Zhao family, he only wants to be a martial arts retainer, this trip to the north, if you don't bring the younger brother, you will kneel and break these legs." ”

Song Jiang saw it, sent a favor, and smiled and persuaded on the side: "Brother, the dragon slayer is a rare hero in the world, so why not take him with you?" Even my brother just got together twenty heroes, and it will look good in the history books in the future. ”

Those twenty? Cao Cao, Xu Guanzhong, Lin Chong, Shi Wengong, Hua Rong, Luan Tingyu, Sun Li, Fan Rui, Li Jun, Zhang Shun, Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi, Jiao Ting, Shi Qian, Zhou Tong, Xie Zhen, Xie Bao, Meng Kang, plus Sun An, but it happened to be rounded.

Cao Cao laughed, patted Sun An and said, "I will grant your wish." ”

I saw that Sun Xin, Le He, Kong Ming, Kong Liang and others were envious, but they knew that their abilities were limited after all, and it was okay if they went smoothly, but if they ran into mountains and rivers, they would inevitably drag everyone back.

This is exactly: although there are heroes in the Jurchens, how can there be no good men in China? Black water and white mountain show their skills, and twenty brothers sang wildly.
