Chapter Seventy-Seven: Amazing Identity
Gao Jie was petrified in an instant.
Although Gao Jie knew that the Hu brothers were not Han and thought they were heroes, he was still stunned by the three names Hu Ji said.
Aisin Jueluo Daishan, the second son of the current Jin Khan Nurhachi. In 1616 (the first year of the Mandate of Heaven), he was named Heshuo Baylor, participated in national politics, and was the head of the four Baylors, and was called the Great Baylor in order.
Aixin Jueluo Huang Taiji, the eighth son of Nurhachi, is now the fourth of the four great beylers, and the future Qing Taizong.
In 1616 (the first year of the Later Jin Mandate of Heaven), Nurhachi established the "Dajin" state (known as Houjin in history), called the Great Khan, and appointed the second son Daishan as the Great Beyler, the nephew Amin as the second Beyler, the fifth son Mang Gurtai as the third Beyler, and the eighth son Huang Taiji as the fourth Beyler, collectively known as the Four Beylers.
Aixin Jueluo Dolgon, the fourteenth son of the Qing Emperor Nurhachi, the second son of Abahai, and the figure of the later Qing Dynasty.
In the face of these three famous figures, can Gao Jie not be shocked?
Looking at Gao Jie's stupid appearance, Huang Taiji asked with some confusion: "Xiaojie, are you okay?!"
Dai Shan patted Gao Jie's shoulder vigorously, Gao Jie woke up like a dream, and hurriedly said: "I'm fine! It's just that when I hear your name, it's just a little thunderous, hehe!"
Huang Taiji looked at Gao Jie meaningfully and asked, "Have you heard our names?"
Gao Jie knew that he had lost his words, and he couldn't answer that I came from the next generation, if you didn't even know you, the founding emperor of the Qing Dynasty, wouldn't you be a fool?! He made up his mind and nodded seriously: "Although I am a small hunter in the countryside, I have a righteous brother, who is the general of the hundred households of the Ming Dynasty, and he once told me the deeds of the two eldest brothers, so when I heard your name, I felt like thunder, I was shocked!"
Dai Shan laughed and said, "Am I really that famous?!"
Gao Jie nodded like pounding garlic, and said continuously: "Of course, Brother Daishan went to the battlefield when he was my age, followed your father Khan to fight in the east and west, and his military achievements were outstanding, and he was the Guying Baturu of the Jin Kingdom!"
Baturu (Manchu: baturu), cognate with the Mongolian word "***" (баатар), is also transliterated as Batu. It means "hero" and "warrior", and it is one of the traditional titles of Manchuria. During the Ming Dynasty, the Jurchens (Manchus) began to use this title, and later became a title for rewarding those who had military merits during the Qing Dynasty. Because it is used to commend the martial arts of the person who has been awarded, it is also known as the "brave number".
Dai Shan saw that Gao Jie even knew the title of "Guying Baturu", which he was most proud of, and couldn't help but laugh proudly.
Without waiting for Huang Taiji to speak, Gao Jie looked at him and said: "Brother Huang Taiji also went to the battlefield before he was twenty years old, not only brave, but also resourceful, it is said that the capture of Fushun is your strategy!"
Huang Taiji stared at Gao Jie with incredible eyes, and said in a lost voice: "Xiao Jie, it's incredible that you know so many things about us!"
Gao Jie smiled and arched his hand: "I have won the prize, but I am just lucky to know a little bit!"
Huang Taiji touched the mustache on his lips that was trimmed very neatly and delicately, and sighed: "It's rare that Xiaojie is different from other Central Plains people, and he doesn't have the intention of seeing foreigners and discriminating because we are foreigners, it seems that I can get to know you, it's really a great fate!"
Gao Jie smiled: "Actually, because I am a Hui person, in my eyes, there is no national prejudice, I treat all the people living in this land as a family, so the two eldest brothers will never be any different from others in my heart, and now you are my brother!"
Seeing that Gao Jie had such otherworldly insight at such a young age, Huang Taiji and Dai Shan glanced at each other in surprise, and then pounced together and hugged Gao Jie tightly!
Yu Hongzhi was simple-minded, he didn't understand what they were talking about, and when he saw Dai Shan, Huang Taiji and Gao Jie hugging together, he was a little overwhelmed and didn't know why. He scratched the back of his head and chose to watch the play next to him.
In his previous life, Gao Jie would have been very resistant to this kind of passionate embrace between men, but now, he has gradually adapted to this era and the people here, although he can't take the initiative to hug Huang Taiji and Dai Shan, but he doesn't resent the feeling of friendship and excitement that he hugged fiercely.
After a while, he let go of Gao Jie, who was a little blushing, Huang Taiji looked at him with a smile and said: "We really should go, there are important things to do tomorrow, Xiaojie, I really look forward to being able to get drunk with you again in our Dajin Kingdom!" After speaking, he took off the knife on his waist, handed it to Gao Jie with the knife with the sheath and said: "This is the treasure knife given by my father Khan, I have never left my body for more than ten years, I will give it to Xiaojie today, let it accompany you to the end of the world on my behalf of my second brother and fourteenth brother!"
Gao Jie knew the identity of Huang Taiji and their family, so he did not shirk and respectfully took the sword with both hands.
By the moonlight, Gao Jie happily looked at the knife sent by Huang Taiji, the delicate hollow iron equipment, the folded and forged noble pattern steel blade, the scabbard is covered with dyed shark skin, the handle is also covered with shark skin, winding silk handle rope, with antlers to decorate the knife spike, at a glance you know that the forging is very difficult, everywhere reveals the excellent craftsmanship of the Daikin royal family.
Gao Jie couldn't put it down, put the knife on his waist, and asked Huang Taiji with a smile: "This is the legendary Baylor knife, right?!"
Baylor, also known as the "Banner Lord" or "Iron Hat King" in Daikin, the Baylor knife is a waist knife that symbolizes their royal status, which was personally rewarded by the Golden Khan Nurhachi, which is extremely precious.
Dai Shan laughed, punched Gao Jie, and praised: "Xiaojie, you really know everything and know everything!"
Seeing that it was indeed a Baylor knife, Gao Jie was very moved, Huang Taiji was able to give his father Khan Nurhachi Qin and accompany him for more than ten years to give him a Baylor knife, which shows that he has regarded himself as a brother who knows and respects each other!
The four of them said goodbye, and when Dai Shan and Huang Taiji left, the sparkle in their eyes made Gao Jie feel extremely warm.
Gao Jie was lonely and lonely in his previous life, which was in stark contrast to him now, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Long live friendship, friendship lasts forever!"
Back at the Jincai Inn, Yu Hongzhi, who had drunk a little too much, fell asleep, but Gao Jie tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
When he came to the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng, who he wanted to find the most, never appeared, but made him a brother and friend with Zhu Youzhen and Huang Taiji.
The course of history cannot be changed, and Huang Taiji will eventually capture the Central Plains, oust Chongzhen from the throne, and establish the Qing Dynasty. I believe that in a few years, Gao Jie will face the duel between Zhu Youzhen and Huang Taiji, and at that time, he will be caught in it like a gas bag, and he will be at a loss!
Thinking of this, Gao Jie couldn't help but feel excited, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, fortunately he didn't find and get acquainted with Li Zicheng, otherwise Emperor Chongzhen, Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty, and Emperor Dashun would fight each other to the death, how should he be in it, even if he was not torn apart by the major forces, it is estimated that his spirit will automatically split, and he will be annoyed to death.
Gao Jie couldn't help but sigh, it seems that meeting nobles is not entirely a good thing, especially when he meets too many nobles at the same time! At this time, he doesn't know whether to say that his life is good or hard.
The strongest brain kept thinking nonsense, and it wasn't until the sky was about to dawn that Gao Jie made a decision: "I will never participate in the battle between several super bosses in the world, or I should be single-minded, concentrate on martial arts, and laugh proudly in the rivers and lakes is the right way!"
Once he figured it out, Gao Jie's depressed mood suddenly relaxed, and in a moment, he fell asleep.
It's just that in the dream, Chongzhen and Huang Taiji still appeared one after another, although Li Zicheng did not appear, but he dreamed strangely that the fat man Li Hongji suddenly changed his temperament and killed all sides, replacing Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang.
Early in the morning, Gao Jie, who was tired and tired, was yelled at by Yu Hongzhi, and after eating breakfast in a sleepwalking state, he gradually woke up, and then the two rode on their horses and continued to move north.
The ancient city of Puzhou is located in the east bank of the Yellow River at the southwest end of the mountain, about 300 miles away from the ancient city of Xi'an, it has 5,000 years of history and culture and 2,000 years of prosperity, it is one of the six major cities in ancient China, Puzhou was called Puban in ancient times, and the "Imperial Century" cloud "Yao used to be in Pu, Shundu Puban." "As early as the period of the tribal alliance, the Pusaka area was the political, economic and cultural center of Chinese civilization.
The Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty Puzhou City was the largest, it was two prosperous periods, there was a pontoon bridge across the Yellow River in the ancient Pupujindu outside Puzhou City, which was 48 years earlier than the Bosphorus pontoon bridge erected by the Western Persian army, which can be called the first pontoon bridge in the world.
At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, Genghis Khan's iron hooves stepped on, and the gold lord Wanyan saw that the rivers and mountains of Puzhou were obstacles, easy to defend and difficult to attack, so he moved the capital to Puzhou to defend it, and the dispute between Jin and Yuan caused serious damage to Puzhou.
During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, the city of Puzhou was the most complete, spectacular and solid. In the 34th year of Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty (1556), at midnight on the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, the city of Puzhou was destroyed by an earthquake. In the 35th year of Jiajing, people rebuilt their homes and rebuilt the city wall to build it with earth. In the first year of Longqing in the Ming Dynasty (1567), the ancient city of Puzhou was paved with large stones, and the inside and outside of the city wall were stacked with blue bricks, and the reconstruction was completed, but compared with the glory of the past, it was greatly inferior.
When Gao Jie and Yu Hongzhi arrived at Pujindu, it was almost noon, and at the east end of the Pujindu pontoon bridge, in addition to some sparse people coming and going between the banks of the Yellow River, there was a team of about 20 people who were resting and attracted Gao Jie's attention.
In this team, everyone is dressed in strong clothes and carries weapons, and you can know that it is a group of people in the martial arts by looking at the posture.
On the east bank of the Yellow River in Pujindu, there are four ferrying iron oxen that are mighty and tall and well-cast, which are said to be cast in the 12th year of Tang Kaiyuan, and are called "Kaiyuan Iron Ox" in later generations. The iron ox is in the form of lying down, about one meter five high, more than three meters long, the eyes are round and open, it is a weight-bearing shape, the image is realistic, lifelike. There is a horizontal iron shaft behind the oxtail, which is about two meters long, and is used to tie the bridge cable. Next to each iron ox is a high-nosed and deep-eyed bearded man made of iron as a traction.
The four oxen and the four people have different shapes, none of them are the same; the iron ox is strong and strong, the head is raised and the horns are correct, the eyes are like anger, the ears are like hearing, and the shape is realistic; the iron body is strong, brave and magnificent, and the image is moving. The iron oxen each weigh about 30 tons, and there is a chassis and an iron pillar under it, each weighing about 40 tons, and there is an iron mountain between the two rows. On the west bank of the river, there are also the same four iron oxen and iron men, and the two banks are anchored on the ox pillar by iron chains each about 5 or 600 meters long and 30 millimeters in diameter, and the pontoon bridge is connected by several iron chains, and the pontoon bridge passes through the islands in the middle of the river, becoming an important traffic artery for economic exchanges between the two sides of the strait.
When Gao Jie passed by this Kaiyuan Iron Bull, he turned over and dismounted, and couldn't help but reach out and touch a few handfuls of a smooth Iron Ox on the left, and was shocked by the advanced casting technology of the Tang Dynasty. The iron ox is smooth and smooth, because the people on both sides of the strait think that after touching the iron ox with their hands, they will be safe when crossing the turbulent and vast Yellow River through the pontoon bridge, so they touch it a lot, and the iron ox is smooth as a mirror.
Suddenly, he faintly noticed that two sharp eyes were projected towards him, and when he looked back, he saw a young man about twenty years old leisurely riding on an iron bull on the right, he was dressed in a blue power suit, ordinary appearance, even a little ugly, the nose was wide and fat, but the mouth was very small, and the match was a little nondescript, and the eyes were quite thoughtful, and the essence was overflowing, and he was looking at Gao Jie with blazing eyes.
He is relatively short, estimated to be about one meter five, with a wheat stalk in his mouth, seeing Gao Jie looking back, his small mouth is tilted, revealing a wild and uninhibited expression.
