The ten sins of the king are known to the world, and the generals of the big merchants are unstable because of this, let alone ordinary people.

Especially in the border area, where the princes from all walks of life bordered, the rumors spread even more, and many people actually believed the nonsense of the princes, took the ten charges as the truth, and joined the team to denounce the king.

But there is no absolute, although it is a very small number, there are still people who think that King Su is enough to be compared with the three emperors and five emperors of the ages, and the first emperor of Shang is worthy of his name.

A young man who looked like a woodcutter carried a rusty axe and a torn newspaper published and distributed from an unknown prince's territory into the mountains.

This mountain is very remote and deep, and in the deepest part there is a small broken wooden house.

A man in the wooden house with his hair and beard untrimmed for many years, and wearing a linen robe.

The people of southern Xinjiang have heard of this hemp-robed people in recent years, the hemp-robed people live in the deep mountains and old forests, not afraid of snakes, rats, insects and ants, nor afraid of jackals, tigers and leopards, I heard that they can also be like the Yue people, come and go freely in the mountains and forests, quite legendary.

It's just that no one knows the identity and origin of the man in the hemp robe, and the man in the hemp robe never takes care of his beard and hair, even if he can't see his age, so he calls him the old man in the mountain.

The old man in the mountain was carefully reading the old newspapers.

The prince of the world is the enemy of the princes of the world, and the princes who control public opinion naturally cannot miss any opportunity to slander the king, and this kind of newspaper that publishes a large number of charges against the king is distributed almost free of charge.

"Teacher, this is the latest newspaper. ”

The man dressed as a woodcutter handed over the torn newspaper, and the old man in the mountain approached and looked at it carefully.

Something big is wrong.

Deng Xiu was ambushed again, and this time he was also used as a bait to seduce the defenders of Sanshan Pass and the main force of the Great Shang, wanting to lead them into the mountains and forests, surround and annihilate them.

The old man in the mountain twisted his twine-like beard and thought for a moment.

Wen Taishi's action may not be able to save Deng Xiu, if he leads the army to rescue, he will fall into the enemy's treacherous scheme, and the situation is quite passive.

He felt that with his understanding of Wen Zhong, Wen Zhong would at most release the exploration horse, try his best to find out, give up when he saw that he could not do anything, and hundreds of thousands of troops could not be left in the south for Deng Xiu alone.

But Deng Xiu's death is also a troublesome matter, as soon as the king declares war on all nations, he will take a head-on blow, and the already unstable people's hearts are only afraid of being even more discouraged.

"Have you figured out the location?"

The old man's voice was a little hoarse.

"Figured it out. ”

I don't know when, there is a capable young man with a mustache in the wooden house, obviously under the sun, but his figure is shadowy, which looks particularly weird.

"General Deng Xiu was surrounded, all his relatives surrendered, and the Yue people were stationed in the mountains and forests, they were no longer worried about General Deng escaping, their goal was to wait for the merchant army to come to the rescue and venture deep into the mountains and forests. ”

The old man in the mountain nodded: "I know, you take your brothers and sisters with you to rescue General Deng." ”

Then he said to the woodcutter young man: "Chen Tong, this is also an opportunity for you and your brother to wash away their sins. ”

The woodcutter young man named Chen Tong left with the capable young man with the eight-character beard, leaving only the old man in the mountain in a small dilapidated house in a daze.

He is Mai Yun, the Mai Yun who attempted to assassinate the king back then, and also assassinated Mai Yun, who took office as the king of Yue and single-handedly relieved the disaster of the South Vietnamese army.

After that time, Mai Yun and his brother Mai Zhi lived in seclusion in southern Xinjiang, unfortunately, Mai Zhi was bitten to death by poisonous insects, poisoned, and died.

Probably because the speaker is gone, and he can't master the rhythm of assassination, Mai Yun completely secluded in the mountains and forests, thinking that he would die alone in the deep mountains and old forests for the rest of his life, but within a few months, the young man with the eight-character beard came here and wanted to learn from his teacher.

In fact, when it comes to martial arts, Mai Yun is really bad, any veteran can kill him, and being able to kill King Yu Yue is also an assassination with a lot of blood, and it is really lucky to be able to get out of the way.

On the other hand, the eight-character bearded young man who came to apprentice, his name is Ma Zhong, he is a martial artist who is a serious martial artist, and he doesn't know where to learn the art of the left way, even if he goes to the battlefield, he is also a tiger general.

But in the end, Ma Zhong still apprenticed, because Ma Zhong knew what he wanted to learn, he didn't like to fight head-on, so he loved to ambush and sneak attack and knock on the stick, Mai Yun could assassinate King Xu, assassinate King Yu Yue, enough to serve as his teacher.

Later, Mai Yun also discovered that his talent in assassination does not require strong martial arts, but also needs to be brave and fearless.

"The day has finally come..."

A small dagger was drawn from Mai Yun's robe, cutting off his beard.

He had long known that there would be a day when he would be hostile to the princes and nobles, and misinterpreted by the people of the world, wasn't this what he was worried about?

Back then, Ziqi was also worried about the situation that Dashang was the enemy of the world, so he rebelled, and it was because of this that he chose to follow Ziqi.

Now, the worst fears have happened.

However, Mai Yun's mentality has completely changed, to a certain extent, what the king did was not wrong, the princes and nobles are the stubborn disease of the Great Shang for six hundred years, if it is not eradicated, even if it does not cause a catastrophe today, it will cause a catastrophe tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, it is better to innovate as soon as possible.

Moreover, in the seven years since the beginning of Bu Mingze's blockbuster to the declaration of war with all nations, the king has done enough.

Although it is still the enemy of the world, it is no longer the whole world.

There may still be many foolish people who are bewitched by the princes and nobles, but there are also many people who see the situation clearly and understand the painstaking efforts of the king.

For example, he Mai Yun, such as the disciples he has taken in and trained over the years.

For example, Chen Tong who left with Ma Zhong.

Chen Tong and his brother Chen Wu were the exiled assassins who assassinated the king with the demon girl during the Baigong Rebellion, and after they repented, they threw themselves into the river, but they got an adventure, not only did not die, but got a strange treasure, and drifted all the way to the south along the Qishui, and was rescued by Mai Yun.

The Chen brothers are not saints and supreme, and they certainly can't change the bad situation of the great merchants and the world's enemies, but after they have obtained strange treasures and learned some assassinations, they are good assassins.

The group of assassins cultivated by Mai Yun, led by Ma Zhong and with Chen Tong and Chen Wu as deputies, is so that today, they can assassinate Xiqi loyal ministers and assassinate princes and nobles, which greatly alleviates the pressure faced by the Great Shang.

Of course, even so, it still can't change the embarrassment of the big business, but Mai Yun knows very well that there are not a few people like himself and the Chen family brothers who have received the favor of the king and want to contribute to the big business.

The seemingly insignificant decisions made by the DPRK and China have already imperceptibly affected tens of millions of people.

When these people really understand and understand the hard work of the king, it is the time when the big merchants counterattack the world.

Some people will be shaken by the bad situation, but some people will be more determined to serve the country for the sake of the shaky society.

A strong country, there is no shortage of true warriors at all times.
