Qi Jiguang is straightforward, since his words have come to this point, he no longer hides it, not to mention that he has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, although he has a little respect for Gu Youdao and these benevolent heroes, he will never be afraid of the other party.

He said: "Gu Gang Master, you led the heroes in the Jiangnan area to come to Guangdong this time, I don't know what your plans are. ”

Gu Youdao's heart moved, knowing that what should come is still coming after all, Guangdong Governor Qi Jiguang held a banquet in Zhenhai Tower today, not just to welcome them......

At this time, Qi Jiguang mentioned it, Gu Youdao had to give Qi Jiguang an explanation, otherwise a figure like Qi Jiguang would never have made a shield for them in vain, and even if one was not handled properly, hundreds of thousands of Qi family troops would become their enemies.

Gu Youdao slightly worded, and then spoke: "It's not glorious to say this matter, but since Lord Qi asked, Gu Mou won't hide it." ”

"As the adult just said, the beggar gang is the foundation of chivalry, loyalty, bravery, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, the five righteousness should be the first priority, the beggar gang first started in the Sui and Tang dynasties, at this time the gang is all poor and poor people and there is no party, everyone gathers together just to be less oppressed, after thousands of years of inheritance, the rise and fall of the dynasty in the world, but the beggars have never disappeared in any dynasty or generation, and even a large number of displaced people have joined every time the dynasty changes. ”

"But since it's a gang, it naturally has to make a living for the gang, and it is because the beggars have a lot of industries under their name, and gradually formed two factions of dirty clothes and clean clothes, the dirty clothes faction is the ordinary gang of the beggars, and the clean clothes faction is responsible for taking care of the industries of the beggar gang and some troubles that the dirty clothes faction can't solve. ”

"The original Pure Clothes faction also devoted itself to the ordinary gangs, but slowly got used to a good life, so they didn't look much at the mud legs of the gang, especially when some of the transactions fell into the hands of a few people, they were not so easy to take back, and at this time there were actually a lot of hidden dangers in the beggar gang. ”

"Later, it was passed to this dynasty, Emperor Taizu was eloquent and strategic, and tried his best to suppress the martial arts forces in order to prevent turmoil in the rivers and lakes, but other sects were just other sects, and Taizu ordered to accept fewer disciples and restrain his children, but our beggars are troublesome. It's just that the disciples of this gang are too mixed, the good and the bad are uneven, and if a person can't join other sects, he will become a beggar or not. ”

"It was based on the plan of the national teacher Liu Bowen that year, Taizu tried to recruit the gang, and the method used was to canonize the official beggars, which was beyond reproach in stabilizing the country during the Taizu period, and the officials and beggars connected the beggars and the imperial court, many misunderstandings were avoided, and the officials and beggars chose all the heads and faces of the clean clothes faction, and also captured the lifeblood of the beggars at that time from another level. ”

"It's just that hundreds of years have passed, the government has been manipulated by the traitorous party, the power of the officials and beggars has swelled more and more, and they have begun to become the minions of the traitorous party, slaughtering the people and endangering the martial arts. ”

"But it happened to catch up with Zhang Jingxiu's son for the eunuch party's captivity, I beggar gang a gang of small heroes brave and loyal to the big thing, Jiangnan group of heroes gathered in Fuzhou to go to Kaiyuan Temple, and tried their best to rescue Zhang Gongzi from the hands of the eunuch party, but the leader of the eunuch party Jiang Jingzhong wanted to take this opportunity to eradicate our resistance to the eunuch party in one fell swoop, and did not hesitate to personally marshal the Dongchang army poured out, and I waited for this to go to Guangdong to avoid the edge temporarily. ”

In fact, Gu Youdao said these things, most of Qi Jiguang had already sent his subordinates to find out that at the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Taizu was wise and martial, the army was a hundred battles, and the country was peaceful.

And because the number of beggars is too large and different from other martial arts sects, this canonized the official beggars to calm their hearts and divide their strength.

It's just that at this time, the military strength of the Ming Dynasty declined, and the internal and external troubles were surrounded by enemies, and the martial arts force became a part that could not be underestimated.

The key is how to grasp the balance.

In fact, fundamentally speaking, there is not much difference between Jiang Jingzhong's strategy and Qi Jiguang's strategy, and both of them have seen that the rise of the weak martial arts forces in the imperial court at this time has long been inevitable.

The method adopted by Jiang Jingzhong was to use the groveling forces such as the Furnace Fort and the officials to balance the forces of the rivers and lakes in the wait-and-see, and to exterminate the forces that dared to oppose Dongchang.

Qi Jiguang persuaded those righteous knights who were worried about the country and the people to serve the country, wary of those forces in the rivers and lakes that wavered between good and evil, and drove away or even exterminated the martial arts scum who caused chaos in the country.

The only difference between the two is that Qi Jiguang measures everything from the perspective of the people of the country, but he has good intentions when it comes to the power that is beneficial to the people of the country.

However, Jiang Jingzhong's actions are all from the aspect of self-interest, no matter whether it is good or evil, as long as he is willing to obey his orders and use it for his use, he will try his best to win him over, but those who oppose him, whether it is beneficial to the people of the country or not, will try to get rid of them.

Qi Jiguang listened to Gu Youdao's antecedents, but he didn't get the things he wanted to know the most, these antecedents he could have known through other channels, what he really wanted to dig out from Gu Youdao today was whether these people were just taking refuge in Guangdong for a while, or were they preparing to stay for a long time.

If it was just a temporary refuge, Qi Jiguang wouldn't mind providing some help to these fallen heroes, but when these people would leave, he had to know in his heart.

If these people are not just taking refuge in Guangdong, and even have the intention of staying and developing for a long time, then he must be vigilant, after all, Gu Youdao's force is said to be big, only a few hundred people are not enough to make trouble, and these people are all people with heads and faces in the rivers and lakes, and the potential power on their bodies must not be underestimated, especially Gu Youdao, the leader of the beggar gang.

Although the beggar gang is in turmoil now, and the official beggar forces have divided many people who are greedy for glory and fame from the beggar gang, but only millions of beggars' disciples, once Gu Youdao intends to convene in a hurry, it will be a big variable.

Although Qi Jiguang did not deal with Jiang Jingzhong, the leader of the eunuch party, and was happy to see the martial arts forces weaken and resist Dongchang, after all, he was a local official of the imperial court who loved the people like a son, and he never wanted to see too many innocent people implicated, let alone extend the scourge of swords and soldiers to an uncontrollable point.

Immediately said in a deep voice: "Gu Gang Master, what your gang did in the Fuzhou area, Qi someone also heard a little about it and admired it, Jiang Jingzhong, the director of the East Factory, deceived the monarch and killed the loyal and good Qi and hated it to the bone, so when the Gu Gang Master brought people to Guangdong, Qi not only did not stop it, but also sent the leader of the dog Zi Zuo State to stop the Dongchang army. ”

Gu Youdao hurriedly said: "Lord Qi understands the righteousness and respects him. ”

Qi Jiguang waved his hand, without leading Gu Youdao's compliment, and continued: "Gu Gang Master, let's open the skylight and say bright words, after all, the Guangdong Territory is under the control of Qi someone, and the livelihood of millions of people in the territory is all Qi someone's body, so Qi Gang Master can't help but be careless, Gu Gang Master is the leader of the three beggar gang masters, more than 100 Jiangnan heroes, what are the plans to do in Guangdong, please give me an answer." ”

Qi Jiguang thoroughly picked out the words, this time not only Qi Jiguang looked at Gu Youdao, but even the local Guangdong martial arts representatives who were invited by Qi Jiguang to accompany him also looked at Gu Youdao, after all, there are rules on the rivers and lakes, and each gang and faction has its own inherent sphere of influence.

Even Li Santong, Wu Zhu, Qi Guming and others also looked at Gu Youdao, although when they evacuated Fuzhou that day, everyone was planning to avoid the idea of the Dongchang army, but such a force gathered together but there must be a target direction, the original goal was to help the beggar gang drive out the official beggars, and later with Zhang Jingxiu being captured by the Dongchang, the direction was changed to save Zhang Jingxiu, and then went to Guangzhou to avoid the pursuit of the Dongchang army.

Now that he has gone deep into the realm of Guangdong, if there is no new direction, I am afraid that this group of heroes from all over the world will fall apart in a short time, which is easy to disperse, but Gu Youdao wants to regather such a force in a short period of time, but it is not so simple.

Originally, Gu Youdao wanted to wait until he stabilized his foothold in Guangdong, and then discussed it with Li Santong, Wu Zhu and others, but he didn't expect that Guangdong had already been rectified into a monolith by Qi Jiguang, and their arrival attracted the attention of many people at the first time.

Gu Youdao smiled bitterly and said, "Gu Mou already knew that Lord Qi's banquet was not so delicious. ”

Qi Jiguang stared at Gu Youdao and said: "Gu Gang Master said that he laughed, there are some things that have to be explained sooner or later, and Qi is just advancing this day a little." ”

Gu Youdao got up and said, "Lord Qi, it is really a blessing for the local people to have you as the governor of Guangdong......

"It's not a secret, Gu and all the brothers came to Guangdong this time, one is to send Zhang Jingxiu's son overseas, Guangdong was a sea hub before the sea ban was developed, and there are loyal people like General Qi as the governor of Guangdong, Zhang Gongzi has no better choice than going to sea from Guangdong. Well, this time, the goal of Jiang Jingzhong, the governor of Dongchang, is to gather in the Jiangnan area and dare to compete with the loyal and brave warriors of Dongchang, and he personally commanded the Dongchang army to the south, and the Jiangnan garrison strategy is really difficult to match, he will inevitably slaughter the righteous soldiers, Gu had to gather them to avoid Guangdong to preserve their strength. Well, the official beggar forces have now completely become the minions of the eunuch party, acting viciously and harming the country and the people, it is the shame of my beggar gang and the disaster of the martial arts, Gu someone will do his best to destroy it, but it takes a lot of time for the beggar gang disciples to be distributed all over the world, Gu hopes that General Qi can open the convenient door for me to gather the disciples, Gu can use the head of the Xiang Shang as a guarantee, and the beggar gang disciples are only here to eradicate the official beggars, and they have no intention of expanding their power, let alone causing trouble to the local ......"
