Chapter 239: Who is the True Hero?

The next day, Unomiya Terulie set up a banquet in his camp and invited Yuan Qi to the banquet. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info This was agreed between Unomiya Terulie and Yuan Qi yesterday, and before the class teacher, there was still a meal between the two that they didn't drink.

Unomiya Terulie took the initiative to invite Yuan Qi to the banquet, and Yuan Qi had already guessed a general reason in his heart. Between Ugong Zhaolie and Yuan Ding, there will be a battle sooner or later, but with the strength of Ugong Zhaolie alone, he may not be able to beat Yuan Ding, so Ugong Zhaolie wants to take this opportunity to reach an agreement with Yuan Qi and form a temporary alliance to deal with Yuan Ding together. Another meaning, Ugong Terulie also wants to test Yuan Qi to see where Yuan Qi's bottom line is and whether he has the ambition to be the emperor.

The Spring and Autumn Period is an unrighteous war, this sentence is applicable in any troubled times. At present, the princes of all walks of life are divided into one side, and they unite or attack each other, to put it bluntly, they are all for their own interests, they can be allies for interests, or they can be enemies for interests, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. No one is really for the sake of the people of the world, but now that there is Yuanqi, it has become a little different. His thoughts were obviously incompatible with the other princes, so that Ugong Terulie couldn't see Yuan Qi's true thoughts, so Ugong Terulie planned to use this banquet to touch the bottom of Yuan Qi.

At noon, Yuan Qi appeared on time in front of Unomiya Terutsu's camp. At this moment, Yuan Qi took off a military uniform and wore a set of robes mainly white embroidered with splendid mountains and rivers, which set off Yuan Qi's more and more outstanding bearing. Following Yuan was Zhao Hu with a white horse and a silver spear, at the same time. There were also ten elites of the Heavenly Return Army accompanying him.

A group of thirteen people walked into the camp of Unomiya Terulie with their heads held high. Seeing that Yuan Qi only came with a dozen people, Ugong Terulie sincerely admired Yuan Qi's courage. Although there is no direct conflict of interest between Ugong Terulie and Yuan Qi, and there is a common enemy like Yuan Ding, no one dares to guarantee that this banquet set by Umiya Terulie will not be a Hongmen banquet. If you were someone else, you might not have taken the risk at all, but Yuan Qi not only came. And only a dozen people came. It not only shows Yuan Qi's own courage and bearing, but also shows that Yuan Qi has extreme confidence in his subordinates, and believes that these dozen subordinates will be able to protect their own safety. Meantime. This detail. It also shows the foresight of Yuan Qi, who firmly believes that before the form of friend or foe has not been completely transformed. Unomiya Terulie won't do anything to him. On such a small issue, Ugong Terulie saw that Yuan Qi was unusual, and strengthened his determination to unite Yuan Qi to fight against Yuan Ding.

Unomiya Terulie is a man of great ambitions, and of course he will work with people who are also exceptional. As Yuan Qi strode over, Ugong Zhaolie shook his robe, and then greeted him with a smile, and then Yuan Qi, Zhao Hu, and Sun Ce entered their own camp, and the other ten elites of the Tiangui Army, without Yuan Qi's orders, automatically stopped outside the tent, and then pressed the handle of the horse chopping knife, ignoring the existence of the 50,000 soldiers of the Ugong Army, like javelins, standing with their heads held high. Fearlessness comes from its own strong strength, and the actions of the ten Heavenly Return Army once again made the careful Ugong Terulie see it, and also made Ugong Terulie once again look sideways at the elite level of the Heavenly Return Army. Since the formation of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and Tiger Guard Battalion, Ugong Terulie has understood that the formation of elite troops is far from being as simple as it seems, the weapons and equipment are far better equipped than ordinary sergeants, the training level is several levels higher, and the military salary is three to five times that of ordinary soldiers.

Ugong Terulie wanted to ask Yuan Qi how he trained the four elite troops under his command, but when the words came to his lips, he was forcibly swallowed by Umiya Terulie. Unomiya Terulie knew that the method of military training had been a high military secret since ancient times, so Umiya Terulie thought that it was impossible for Yuan Qi to tell him easily. Actually, Ugong Zhaolie thought wrongly, although now Ugong Zhaolie and Yuan Qi's friends and enemies are unknown, but for this point, Yuan Qi will still tell Ugong Zhaolie, anyway, Ugong Zhaolie can't learn it, what is Yuan Qi afraid of? To put it bluntly, the reason why Yuan Qi was able to train four elites, in addition to Gao Shun, Xu Rong and other military trainers under his command, the concept of military soul is the key to Yuan Qi transplanted from later generations and successfully instilled into his own troops, so as to train four elite soldiers. The soul of the army is the soul of an army, and the troops with the soul of the army have faith, and they will understand what they are fighting for, unlike other sergeants who do not have the soul of the army, even if the basic loyalty is a problem, how can they become elite soldiers?

After entering the big tent, Yuan Qi found that there were only two tables in the tent, obviously, Ugong Terulie meant to talk to himself alone, and people with insufficient status were simply blocked out of this tent. Even Zhao Hu, in this big tent, there is no place to sit.

Ugong Terulie took the lead in walking to a table, sat down on his knees, and then stretched out his hand to Yuan Qiyi and said, "Junhou, please!"

Yuan Qi slowly walked to the other table and sat down cross-legged.

Seeing Ugong Zhaolie staring at him, Yuan Qi smiled and said: "Ugong Sikong, two years ago, in the territory of Youji, the sitting posture of kneeling and sitting was abolished, Sikong should not think that Benhou did not follow the etiquette law. ”

"Where, in fact, so-and-so has long been tired of kneeling. With that, Unomiya Terumu stood up, then sat down again like Yuanqi, and after feeling it for a while, he praised: "It's still comfortable to sit like this." ”

Yuan Qi and Unomiya Terulie glanced at each other and laughed at the same time. From this detail, Yuan Qi can see that Ugong Terulie and himself have a striking similarity in the handling of certain problems. The same informality, the same flexibility and open-mindedness. Perhaps, this is also one of the factors in Unomiya Teruyu's later success.

After sitting down, Unomiya Terulie ordered the guards to serve wine and food. Today's food is very simple, there are only two meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes, a plate of green plums with water droplets, and a jar of roasted knife wine. Even entertaining Yuan Qi is so simple. Thus. It is rumored that Unomiya Terulie advocates thrift and opposes extravagance and waste, but it must be true.

After the wine and food were served, Ugong Terulie smiled and said, "Prince, there are no other wine and delicacies in the army. Sluggish. Yuan Qi replied with a smile: "Sikong is polite." ”

Nodding, Ugong Terulie stretched out his hand and pointed to the green plum on the plate, and said with a smile: "Years ago." When a certain emperor sent troops to attack Qingzhou, the sergeants were thirsty and couldn't walk anymore. At that time, even in the mouth of a certain person, he felt thirsty and was about to emit green smoke, and finally, a certain person had a plan, pointed to the road in front and said, twenty miles away, there is a plum forest. When the sergeants heard this, their tongues were filled with joy, and they worked hard to reach their destination on time. ”

Yuan Qi had already heard this story of "Wangmei quenching thirst" in later generations, but when he heard Ugong Terulie say it today, he felt something different. Picking up the wine glass in front of him, Yuan Qi raised his glass to Ugong Terulie and said: "Sikong's wit is admirable, Benhou respects Sikong with a cup!"

Unomiya Terulie smiled and drank a glass of wine, and then asked: "The prince is so open-minded, a certain respect for the prince, do it!"

Yuan Qi put a glass of wine into his stomach and asked with a smile: "Sikong is wise, Qi is deeply admired, and today the wolf smoke is everywhere, and there are many heroes, dare to ask Sikong, who can be a hero in the Yuan Empire?"

Unomiya Terulie took a sip of wine and said slowly: "Today, the princes are divided, and there are hundreds of thousands of people under their command. The prince thought that Yuan Bai, who died a few days ago, had been divided into Huainan, and the soldiers were well fed, could he be a hero?" Therefore, Umiya Terulie hopes to be able to judge from Yuanqi's answer how loyal Yuanqi is to the Yuanji.

Yuan Qi shook his head, and his answer disappointed Unomiya Terulie: "The deceased is gone, and there is no need to say it anymore." Obviously, Yuan Qi refused to comment on Yuan Bai on the grounds that the deceased was safe, and at the same time cut off Ugong Terulie from testing his mind.

After getting Yuan Qi's answer, Ugong Zhaolie was obviously not very satisfied, so Ugong Zhaolie said the second person: "Hebei Yuan Ding, the fourth and third dukes, protégés and former officials are all over the world, and now the tiger is in the half of Jizhou and Qingzhou, and there are many famous generals and ministers under him like carp crossing the river, can he be a hero?"

Ugong Terulie knew that the hatred between Yuan Qi and Yuan Ding had almost reached the point of incompatibility, and Yuan Ding secretly provoked Fan Jin from the beginning to fake the edict of the Son of Heaven and recruit Dong Meng into Beijing, and the contradiction between Yuan Qi and Yuan Ding had already been concluded; The contradiction was further intensified, and even before the Tiger Prison Pass, Yuan Ding made the contradiction between the two public because he did not obey Yuan Qi's orders; later, Yuan Ding didn't know which tendon was wrong, and he was easily fooled by Wang Nuo, and united several other princes in Shaxian County, and ambushed an army of 200,000 to try to kill Yuan Qi in one fell swoop, although Yuan Qi survived in the end, but Yuan Qi's fiancée Sun Shangxiang blocked an arrow for Yuan Qi. Almost died. In addition, the elite of the two armies of Tiangui and Earthgui were completely damaged in this battle, causing Yuan Qi to return to Youzhou safely, and he could only endure this breath for the time being. Implement a policy of rest and recuperation. This account. Until today, a few years later, Yuan Qi still failed to get it back, and after that, Yuan Qi tried to win over the Shangguan family. Infiltrated Yecheng and persuaded the Shangguan family to surrender at the same time, he also set fire to Yuan Ding's granary, so that Yuan Ding had to tighten his belt, and after more than a year of thrift, in short, the hatred between Yuan Qi and Yuan Ding can not be explained clearly in one or two sentences, based on the hatred between the two, Ugong Zhaolie believes that Yuan Qi should hate Yuan Ding very much, so Ugong Zhaolie is the second to tell Yuan Ding.

Yuan Qi chuckled and said: "I heard that Sikong and Yuan Ding have known each other since childhood, and they laughed together in the front yard of the pavilion, presumably Sikong's understanding of Yuan Ding is much clearer than that of Benhou." Yuan Qi's words once again made Ugong Terulie confused, and he also turned over the story of Unomiya Terulie's childhood, which was also a temptation for Unomiya Terulie.

Unomiya Terulie did not disappoint Yuan Qi, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the prince had heard about the old things of a certain one. ”

Yuan Qi waved his hand and said with a smile: "Ben Hou is just comparing gossip, not only these, but also Sikong's eldest son, Yugong Ang, does not seem to have been born to Mrs. Ding, but Mrs. Ding's maid, Mrs. Yuan." ”

Yuan Qi's words suddenly made Ugong Terulie's face change. Mrs. Ding, is the original wife of Ugong Zhaolie, and also the first lady, but Mrs. Ding can not have children, Ugong Zhaolie repeatedly tried to no avail, and after a drunken and Mrs. Ding's maid Mrs. Yuan, who expected that she was unintentionally inserted into the willows, Mrs. Yuan was pregnant with Ugong Zhaolie's child, and after giving birth to a boy, Ugong Zhaolie was overjoyed, and named the boy Ugong Ang. But after all, Mrs. Yuan is a maid and can't be the main room of Ugong Zhaolie, so Mrs. Ding took Ugong Ang over and regarded it as her own. In order to conceal the identity of Umiya Aungshu, Umiya Terulie killed most of the people in the know, and issued a strict order to Mrs. Yuan, forbidding her to tell Umiya Aung what she really thought. Until the death of Unomiya Ang two years ago, he did not know that his biological mother turned out to be Mrs. Yuan. This matter, Ugong Terulie has been kept secret, and the secrecy work has been done very well, but now it is broken by Yuan Qi.

Now that Unomiya Ang is dead, there is no need to hide the truth of this matter, and Unomiya Terulie naturally will not change color for this reason. The real reason for the change of color of Ugong Terulie was because Umiya Terulie suddenly felt that Yuan Qi was terrible, he didn't know how Yuan Qi knew about it, but Ugong Terulie knew that Yuan Qi must have formed a very good intelligence force, otherwise, Yuan Qi would not be able to know what happened more than ten years ago.

With a far-fetched smile, Ugong Zhaolie said insincerely: "I didn't expect that the prince still has a tailwind ear in his hand, people say that there are four elite troops under the command of the prince, and today it seems that it is a big mistake, it should be five!"

Seeing that Ugong Teruleu guessed the existence of the hidden dragon, Yuan Qi did not deny it. The reason why he said this matter was to warn Ugong Terulie that anything you do and any thought you can't hide from my Yuan Qi's eyes and ears! Now that the goal has been achieved, Yuan Qi will no longer continue to persecute Ugong Terulie, and there are some things that can be clicked on, and let Ugong Terulie understand it himself, which is far better than Yuan Qi saying it. Much more effective. Yuan Qi turned the topic back to Yuan Ding: "Yuan Ding is very timid and timid. Rigid for self-use, wide on the outside and taboo on the inside, resourceful and indecisive. Doing great things and sparing one's life, seeing small profits and forgetting one's righteousness, is not a hero's doing."

This is the first thing Unomiya Terulie has heard in Genki's mouth since the banquet. Hide the shock in your heart for a moment. Ugong Terulie seemed to have forgotten about Yuan Qi's elusive intelligence force, and asked with interest: "The prince's evaluation of Yuan Ding can be described as extremely incisive, and a certain person also sees it this way." So, even Yuan Ding doesn't deserve to be called a hero, does the prince think that Jingzhou Mu Yuan can be a hero?"

Yuan Qi shook his head at Ugong Terulie with a smile and said: "Yuan Biao is in name only, and he is just trapped in Jingzhou, so he really can't be called a hero." ”

Ugong Zhaolie smiled disappreciatively, and asked again: "So, Yizhou Yuanzhang and Hanzhong Zhang Lu, can they be heroes?" Yuan Qi replied bluntly this time: "Shoucheng is still insufficient, what kind of hero!"

Ugong Terulie said with a smile: "A certain list of people has been denied by the prince one by one, dare to ask the prince, who can be called a hero?"

Yuan Qi did not directly answer Unomiya Terulie's words, and said leisurely: "The dragon can be big and small, and it can rise and hide, and if it is large, it will spit out fog, and if it is small, it will hide its form, and if it rises, it will soar between the universe, and if it is hidden, it will lurk in the waves." The dragon's ride changes from time to time, like a person's ambition and crisscrossing the seas. Dragons are things, comparable to the heroes of the world. In these words, Yuan Qi clearly drew out the criteria for judging heroes: those who can bend and stretch, can be invincible, can retreat in an instant, and those who see the opportunity and achieve great things are heroes. After the words were spoken, everyone in the big tent was immersed in Yuan Qi's words, figuring out the meaning of these words.

Ugong Terulie savored the meaning of every word in Yuan Qi's words, and after a long time, he raised his wine glass in admiration and said to Yuan Qi: "Hearing the words of the prince is better than reading ten years." Please drink this cup to the fullest. ”

Yuan Qi raised his glass and drank a glass with Unomiya Terulie. After putting down the wine glass, Yuan Qi threw the topic back to Ugong Teruje: "According to the standard of this Hou Shicai, Sikong thinks that today, how many people can be called heroes?"

Unomiya Terulie stretched out his hand and pointed at Yuan Qi, then retracted his hand and pointed at himself, and replied: "The heroes of the world, only the prince and the terrae!"

Yuan Qi laughed noncommittally and said: "Sikong is underestimating the heroes of the world, Jiangdong Tiger Sun Bofu, although he is young, he is powerful in Jiangdong, if he can restrain his temper and become calmer in the future, it will be Sikong's very tricky opponent!"

Unomiya Terulie laughed, raised the wine glass in his hand and drank it all...
