Chapter 31 non-mainstream teenager

While the Yuan family was doing everything they could to suppress Nian, a group of wandering Nian troops went to Yuan's hometown to make trouble, intending to capture Yuan Jiasan's old den and encircle Wei to save Zhao. At this time, it was Yuan Xiaosi's father, Yuan Baozhong, who was in charge of guarding the family. Although Yuan Baozhong was not educated, he was capable. At the critical moment, he played the role of the eldest son of the family as the mainstay. Yuan Baozhong joined forces with other rich households and powerful families to organize a large-scale private armed force, found a dangerous place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and built a large fortress in the northeast of Xiangcheng, Henan.Of course, Baozhai was not invented by Yuan Baozhong. It has a long history in Chinese history, and probably originated in the period of chaos in the late Western Jin Dynasty.

The walls of the fortress are thick and strong, with watchtowers standing on the four corners and the gate of the fortress, surrounded by moats outside the walls, and the end is heavily guarded, easy to defend but difficult to attack.Because the fort was built on the initiative of Yuan Baozhong, and the Yuan family's fists were big and hard, the village was named "Yuan Village" after the Yuan family. The owner of the village, Yuan Baozhong, issued orders from inside, and led his younger brothers to successfully repel the attacks of the Nian army again and again. After Yuan Xiaosi was born, he had to live a difficult castle life in Yuanzhai.

When the Nian Army attacked Yuanzhai, the family took the 5-year-old Xiaosi to the Zhaiyuan to watch. Many middle-aged men in their twenties couldn't help peeing their pants when they saw this bloody scene, but the kid was unafraid and very calm Watching the fighting outside the stockade, watching the blood flow into rivers below the city, on a whim, he threw a stone down and hit a Nian army. This was the first battle that Xiao Si "participated in". Hey, he's really not an ordinary kid! Therefore, we have reason to believe that this environment is the best enlightenment teaching to make Yuan Xiaosi calm and cruel in the future.

Yuan Xiaosi grew up in this environment full of gunpowder and deceit in his childhood. Different childhoods forged different personalities, so Xiaosi was far more daring than ordinary children. Yuan Xiaosi's fate took a turn when he was 5 years old. As mentioned earlier, his father, Yuan Baozhong, had four sons, while the fierce brother Yuan Baoqing had no sons.Seeing that his own brother had no successors, Yuan Baozhong adopted Yuan Xiaosi to Yuan Baoqing. To be abandoned by one's own parents, no one must feel bad. Fortunately, Yuan Baoqing regards Yuan Xiaosi as his own and loves him very much. Finally, Xiaosi's wounded heart was comforted.

There is nothing to say about Yuan Xiaosi's childhood experience. Three key words can describe his childhood—dislike stereotyped writing, boldness, and aggressiveness. Although Primary 4 doesn't like stereotyped essays, he loves reciting poems.He has recited many interesting poems and couplets, please enjoy his masterpiece when he was 11 years old: Domineering exposed!The ambition is no less than Huang Chao's "Fu Di Hou Fu Ju"! Yuan Xiaosi, who had little ambition, was very aggressive when he was a child, but naturally he couldn't restrain himself when he grew up. He just used this aggressive and aggressive ruffian character to deal with various powerful political enemies he would face in the future.

In fact, the great figures in history have more or less one thing in common: they have been aggressive since childhood.Chiang Kai-shek was the king of children when he was a child. This self-centered communication mode, when extended to the political field, will inevitably produce a self-reliant thinking mode, which is not restrained by anyone.Fighting with the sky, the earth, and the people is a lot of fun.This should be an indispensable gene in the character of great people. Only this kind of character is suitable for hunting success in troubled times, and getting stronger and stronger!
