Chapter 40: The Return of the Hero
The helmsman of the Dragon Guard, in the Hall of Loyalty.
Wen Cheng sat on top of it, and the first four rows of seats, each row of 16 seats. The sixty-four seats are full, all of which are the main and chief rudder of each sub-rudder.
Wen Cheng coughed, cleared his throat, and said, "How is today?" Did you find out any news about the Guan gang leader? ”
Zhao Andao, the rudder of Zhengnan, said: "In the past two months, Kaifeng, the capital, all the places where the gang leader has appeared, the streets and alleys, the barren mountains and mountains, have been turned over, and there has been no news about the gang leader. ”
Wen Cheng sighed and said, "Gang Master Guan must have broken his heart and deliberately avoided us. Even if we dig three feet into the ground, we have to find the Guan gang leader, apologize to his old man, and kowtow to apologize! If the Guan Gang Leader refuses to come back, then our Dragon Protector Gang will never have the day! ”
"Who said it wasn't," Liu Qi, the rudder of Zhengxi, said: "Everyone in the rivers and lakes says that the Dragon Protector Gang is now a headless fly, so what kind of face do the brothers have to walk in the rivers and lakes?" ”
All the helmsmen complained, and for a while you said yours, I said mine, there was a lot of discussion, and the quarrel was inextricable.
"Okay," Wen Cheng didn't tire of it: "Give me a quiet moment, let me put down the things at hand of the helmsmen, and go separately to find out the whereabouts of the Guan Gang Master." ”
Wan Ping divided the rudder and Ma Qiankun said: "What about the task of moving the capital issued by the imperial court? The imperial court set a time limit for the relocation of the capital to be completed before the first day of the first lunar month next year. ”
Wen Cheng said: "Put aside the matter of moving the capital first, this is the matter of the imperial court." Right now, finding the Guan Gang leader is the top priority of the Dragon Guardian Gang! ”
"Yes!" Liu Qi said: "Finding the Guan Gang Master is our big deal. What a great cause to move the capital, let him get out of the way! ”
At this moment, I heard someone outside shouting: "Gang Master Guan is back!" Guan Gang Master is back! ”
A shout interrupted the meeting. When everyone heard this, they were stunned at first, and then someone rushed out of the Hall of Loyalty. Seeing that someone was taking the lead, the rest of the people also rushed out. In a hurry, several people fell to the ground and were trampled by those who came after. In addition to being even more excited, they even climbed out with a rolling belt, all scrambling to see Guan Shanyue for the first time.
After everyone came out, they saw the person in front of them majestic, it was Guan Shanyue. The crowd was so excited that they knelt down and kowtowed.
Wen Cheng was old, and he knelt on the ground as soon as he walked over, and said: "Wen Cheng and the helmsman lard their hearts, listen to the words of the traitor, and cause the gang leader to suffer infinitely, I will kowtow to the gang leader to apologize, please help the master of the gang a lot, don't worry about us!" ”
As he spoke, he knocked on the ground and knelt down. Guan Shanyue picked up Wen Cheng and said, "If I blame you, I won't come back." ”
When Wen Cheng and the others heard this, they were grateful, beyond words!
Everyone hugged Guan Shanyue into the Zhongyi Hall to take a seat, and after Guan Shanyue sat down, he looked at everyone and said, "After half a year, the brothers look thin. ”
"The helper has also lost weight." Changping rudder Lin Tong said.
Guan Shanyue said: "To be honest, I came back with a mission this time." ”
Lin Daodao: "The gang leader just orders, I will wait to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, go to the soup and fight the fire, and I will not give up!" ”
Guan Shanyue nodded and said, "Today's martial arts are respected by the Dragon Protector Gang and the Ming Sect. For a long time, the Dragon Guardian Gang has been bent on dealing with Warat to defend against foreign enemies, ignoring the Ming Sect. In recent years, Mingjiao has developed rapidly, and the congregation has spread all over Kyushu. The imperial court ordered the Dragon Protector Gang to eradicate the Ming Sect and clarify the universe. ”
Lin Daodao: "The helper gives an order, and I will swear to the death!" ”
Huairou rudder Xiao Ying said: "The helper just orders, for so long there is nothing to do, my hands are itching!" ”
Guan Shanyue said: "In the way of using soldiers, I have always paid attention to two things. One is to know oneself and know the other, and the other is to be a soldier and a fast soldier! After Jinyiwei finds out the strength of the other party, he will inform us that as long as we are able to be fast and catch the Mingjiao by surprise, we can eliminate the Mingjiao at the lowest cost! ”
Wen Chengdao: "Mingjiao altars are all over the world. Where does the helper want to start? ”
Guan Shanyue said: "In the north, the northern branch of the Ming Sect is a diehard loyalist of the former sect leader of the Ming Sect, and he has always disobeyed the order of the Ming Sect. Dozens of sub-altars in the north gather in Kaifeng and Dengfeng, which are densely distributed and weak in defense. This place is flat, easy to attack and difficult to defend, so use them to give Mingjiao a deterrent! ”
Wen Cheng nodded and said: "The helper is wise, since ancient times, he has used troops from north to south, from south to north, and it is difficult to break through the northern branch of the Ming Sect, and he will definitely be able to take advantage of the situation to go south and conquer the Ming Sect General Altar in one fell swoop!" ”
Guan Shanyue said: "This matter is carried out secretly, be sure to block the news and catch him off guard!" ”
"Yes!"
The crowd replied in unison.
That night, outside the main altar of Mingjiao, "Chunxia Pavilion", Chu Liuyun paced back and forth, and finally decided to knock on the door.
"Come in." I heard a knock on the door, and the voice of Yutai Jingming came from inside the house.
Chu Liuyun pushed the door in, and saw Yutai Jingming lying on the case, drawing in circles on a map made of sheepskin.
"Father-in-law hasn't rested yet?" Chu Liuyun asked.
"The sect leader is here," Yutai Jingming kept his eyes off the map and said, "What does the sect leader command?" ”
Chu Liuyun stepped forward and said, "Can my father-in-law listen to me?" ”
Yutai Jingming looked up at Chu Liuyun, smiled, and said, "Sect Master, please speak." ”
Chu Liuyun said: "Can we not be an enemy of the imperial court, and the matter of raising troops will be stopped." ”
Yutai Jingming frowned, sighed, and said, "Since the sect leader already knows, I will no longer hide it." On the first day of the first lunar month, it is the day when my Mingjiao moves against the right and turns things around! ”
Chu Liuyun said: "There are many generals and talents in the Ming Dynasty, and today's saints are also trained from water and fire. From the Battle of Jingjing, we can see the wisdom and martial arts of today's saints. There are 100,000 people in the Ming diocese, and if you want to turn things around, how easy is it to talk about it? ”
Yutai Jingming let out a "hmm" and said, "It's a good thing that the sect leader can see the enemy's strengths. But it is not necessary to extinguish one's own prestige and grow the ambition of others. Compared with the Ming Dynasty, the 100,000 people of the Ming Sect are not much, but they can be worth the millions of teachers of the imperial court! ”
Chu Liuyun said: "After destroying the tyrannical yuan, and after the melee of the marshals, Zhu Yuanzhang finally settled the Central Plains, but ushered in the battle of Jingjing. The people of the world have suffered from war and chaos for a long time, and now that they have just been peaceful for a few years, the Ming Sect is going against the sky, isn't it going to make the people of the world suffer again? ”
When Yutai Jingming heard this, he was displeased, paced around with his hands behind his back, suddenly stopped, and said: "In ancient times, those who became great businesses were not informal, Tang Taizong Li Shimin, Song Gaozu Zhao Kuangyin, which one is not the Taiping world to win the throne?" After being called the emperor, as long as he is benevolent, does practical things, thinks about the people, and makes the people live and work in peace and contentment, he can cover up the stigma and live for eternity! ”
Yutai Jingming sighed, and then said: "I have never married a wife in these years, and I have worked hard for Mingjiao. I wanted to start a great business and then spread out, but if you look at my hair, now that my temples are gray, how long can I wait? Can't wait any longer. ”
Chu Liuyun knew that he had made up his mind, and no longer persuaded him. Immediately said: "The Tao is different, don't conspire with each other, I won't do this sect master, let's return it to my father-in-law." ”
When Tantai Jingming heard this, he took a deep breath, looked at Chu Liuyun and said, "I have no children and no daughters, who are I doing all this for?" Not for you! ”
As he spoke, he spread his hands, and his disappointment was beyond words.
Chu Liuyun said: "Father-in-law, don't be angry, I just don't want to have another war, so that the world is in chaos." ”
Tantai Jingming said: "Don't forget, how did the sect leader of Chu die, and your master's last words before he died, they all hope that you can magnify the Ming Sect, have you forgotten all this?" ”
"I ......" Chu Liuyun wanted to speak and stopped, his words were not speculative, and he simply stopped talking.
"Report! Daimyo branch altar 800 miles expedited! ”
At this moment, a disciple hurriedly came and presented an urgent report on the military situation!
Yutai Jingming took the urgent report, opened it and took a look, his eyes widened, his face became more and more ugly, cold sweat poured down his forehead, and suddenly, a mouthful of blood spurted out, wetting the envelope.
Chu Liuyun was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong with my father-in-law." ”
Yutai Jingming said: "The twelve altars in the north have been completely wiped out. ”
Chu Liuyun asked again, "What's the matter?" ”
Yutai Jingming said: "These stupid pigs blatantly intercepted the property of the capital and moved the capital, and the Dragon Protector Gang found out the truth and broke them one by one!" ”
His chest was heaving, and he was clearly angry.
Yutai Jingming asked the disciple, "The urgent report is a date ten days ago, how can it only arrive today?" ”
The disciple said: "The Dragon Protector Gang blocked the news, so that the water could not be passed, and I waited for my life to rush out before rushing out." ”
At this moment, another person came in a hurry: "General Qiqi, there is a large army rushing in the direction of our sect main altar, I am afraid that it will attack the main altar at night." ”
Yutai Jingming asked, "What army, who is in command?" ”
The disciple said, "It hasn't been found yet." ”
"Probe!" Yutai Jingming said.
The disciple took the command and left.
Yutai Jingming said: "The main altar is scarce, if the army comes at us, it will be very bad!" ”
Suddenly, there was a shout of killing in front of him, and a disciple came with the news, saying: "Guan Shanyue led the army of the Dragon Guardian Gang and threatened to set foot on the main altar of the Ming Sect, and the soldiers in front have already fought with me!" ”
"Sure enough, it's him," Yutai Jingming said: "The sect leader will go first, and I will cut it off." ”
Chu Liuyun said: "Guan Shanyue is my eldest brother, he won't do anything to me." ”
Yutai Jingming said "hey" and said: "My virtuous son-in-law, he has already killed the door, what else do you say about righteousness or injustice, you go first, and I will deal with the rest." ”
Yutai Jingming turned to the disciple and said, "Spread the four protectors, and the sect protector will go first." Gather all the people of the general altar, the five banner masters and the altar masters present, and follow me to meet the enemy! ”
