Chapter 44 Chapter 44: Surprise the four with surprise and danger, speak out the stupidity

The central gate of Wang Fuchen's Governor Xingyuan was open, and two rows of soldiers in brocade clothes and flower hats lined up in an orderly manner on both sides of the corridor.Dozens of guards from the Chinese army, holding gleaming machetes, formed a knife alley. In the courtyard in front of the main hall, there was a large iron pot.The flames were raging under the pot, and the oil in the pot was boiling.The firewood smoke and oil fume mixed together, making a well-established courtyard smoky and eerie. Zhou Peigong smiled secretly when he saw this pretending to be powerful.He walked through the forest of swords and swords with steady square steps in full clothes, and walked boldly to the main hall.

Wang Turong knew that Wang Fuchen's set was for Zhou Peigong to see, so he was very calm in his heart, and he walked in with a smile after the warriors put away their swords.As soon as they met, they greeted warmly with familiarity and informality: "Ah, Brother Fuchen, it's been a long time. How are you old friends! It's been a few years since Brother Fuchen is still so majestic and heroic, it's really admirable Praise. Wang Shirong led 50,000 elite soldiers today to hunt in Pingliang with his ministers and brothers, to boost the prestige of the Han family, destroy the spirit of the barbarians and the Di, and take care of this old man Tuhai..."

He spoke passionately and impassionedly, but except for Zhang Jianxun, everyone else responded indifferently.Wang Fuchen waved his hand with a sullen face, stopped his nagging, and suddenly asked Zhou Peigong angrily: "Who are you? Why didn't you even report your name when you entered my military governor's camp? Are you an arrogant person who doesn't know the etiquette?" ?" Zhou Peigong glanced at Wang Fuchen calmly, and said with a contemptuous smile: "General Wang, is this asking me? It is Zhou Peigong, a scholar from Jingmen, who is Mr. Zhou who you just ordered to 'invite'. Since the general said If you put the word "please" and value etiquette so much, then you should treat the guests you invite with courtesy. Why is there such a pot of oil under the hall, and the hall is so arrogant and disrespectful? Slowly talk about the angel of Shangbang If you don't pay homage to the vassals of the country, even if it's a commoner's friendship, it's not in line with the master's way for the general to do so?"

In the first round, Wang Fuchen was defeated by Zhou Peigong's sarcasm and blame.He was tongue-tied and didn't know how to answer. After a long while, he managed to squeeze out a sentence: "Huh. What a sharp mouth, what a lobbyist. Mr. Wang, please sit down. Let me ask this Mr. Zhou first: Our two armies are facing each other, and the outcome is not yet decided, so why do you come to the city to meet me?" "What, the outcome is not decided, ha..., the general fought me with 30,000 well-trained elite soldiers, fought three times, and lost seven to eight out of ten. Now, the general is sticking to this small isolated city, with no food inside and no reinforcements outside. As long as we General Tu gave an order, and within three quarters, Pingliang will be reduced to scorched earth. May I ask the general, where do you start with the words 'the victory is not yet decided'?"

Zhou Peigong went to the city this time after careful consideration.He knew that if he wanted to call Ma Yaozi Wang Fuchen to surrender, he must not show weakness in front of him. He could only restrain him and make sense of him.After entering the gate, he saw that Wang Fuchen and Zhang Jianxun had obviously adopted different attitudes towards him and Wang Shirong, so he also showed the power of an important minister of the kingdom of heaven.The two conversations were all in an aggressive tone. Sure enough, Wang Fuchen was enraged.He slapped the table with a "snap", pointed at Zhou Peigong with trembling fingers and asked, "Let me ask you, Liu Chun led a thousand cavalry, but you used treacherous tricks to wipe out his entire army?"

"Oh, no, no, no, gentlemen don't steal the beauty of others. This is the command of General Tuhai." "Then what about the Jinghe battle?" "General Tu is the commander-in-chief of our three armies. Naturally, it is also his credit. Of course, I have to do my part in the counseling of the subordinates. In this battle, the general reported his troops and lost the general. The majesty of the year was completely lost, but the subordinates did not I practice martial arts and don't know how to fight, but in an emergency, I let go of a way out for the general, I am really ashamed!"

Hearing Zhou Peigong's ridicule, Wang Fuchen was furious: "Let me ask you again, who came from the poisonous plan to burn Hudun?" "Oh, general, don't be so angry. When the two armies meet, there is no reason why you don't want to win. The terrain of Hudun is dangerous. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. How can it be captured by our army without fire? In the past, Zhuge Wuhou was kind Using fire to attack, the students only gain something by reading history books, and follow in the footsteps of the sages, which is praised by the general." Zhou Peizheng was talking eloquently, but he didn't want to be wary of Wang Fuchen, but suddenly rushed in front of him, and said in a trembling voice, "Okay, just admit it. My son Wang Jizhen died tragically at your hands. Today I want you to pay for my son's life." Did you see the frying pan in the yard? You were right just now. My isolated city of Pingliang has no food inside and no reinforcements outside. It is about to be broken by you. It is a pity that you can no longer go to the emperor to ask for credit Receive the reward, but will be buried in this frying pan."

"Ha... Wang Fuchen, Wang Fuchen, you have led soldiers for thirty years in vain, and you have given the name of the Kansai horse kite in vain, and you haven't even mastered the simplest four words in the art of war, 'know the enemy, know the enemy' Tong, it’s really laughable, ha..." Wang Fuchen, who was in a rage, was taken aback by Zhou Peigong's arrogant laughter, "Huh? What do you mean by that?" Zhou Peigong was still laughing non-stop, tears were coming out of his eyes.Suddenly, he stopped laughing, and said with a serious face: "Today, I, Zhou Peibu, in a green shirt, came to break into the gate of your horse kite. I put life and death aside, but you use death to scare me. This is ignorance. ;It is clear that you killed your own son with your own hands, but planted it on my head. You don’t know why you said such unreasonable things in broad daylight. Why, don’t you understand this point?”

Wang Fuchen was really confused: "What, what, I killed my son with my own hands, are you crazy?" "Hmph, General Wang, your son lived in the capital well, bathed in the favor of the emperor, and enjoyed the wealth and glory; but you betrayed the court and pushed your son to the guillotine. The emperor has a heart of kindness and compassion, and he has shown great kindness. Not only did you not kill your son, but you also specially released him out of Beijing to reunite with you; but you dragged him into the rebel army and made him fall into the quagmire. At the critical moment, you sat in the city by yourself You don't fight behind closed doors, knowing that the heavenly army is going to attack Hudun, and you will definitely be able to take Hudun, but you insist on sending your son to the place of death. When did you think about your son in your heart? Where is your father's love? ? Didn’t you kill your own son with your own hands?”

After asking a few words, Wang Fuchen was speechless and speechless, but Zhou Peigong continued without stopping: "The emperor treated you kindly to Wang Fuchen. He carried you into the flag, entrusted you with great trust, let you open a government and build a mansion, and be an extremely human minister. Put away the leopard tail gun that the emperor bestowed on you, and forget about the emperor's sea of ​​kindness to you. This is your disloyalty. Seal the future of your wife and son, but you lead them astray with your own selfishness, make them spill their blood on the battlefield, and wander in the desert. The generals and soldiers died without a place to be buried. This is because you are unrighteous as a friend. Tens of thousands of people in the city have long since given up cooking, and the sound of hunger and cold can be heard endlessly. You insist on going your own way, disregarding the life and death of the people, and wanting to plunge the people of Pingliang into a sea of ​​blood and flames of war. This is your inhumanity as an official; Fuyuan General Tu Hai obeyed the emperor's order and ordered me to enter the city. But you speak rudely, treat each other rudely, and put on this mountain of knives and frying pan to force you to die, and you will definitely end this way of life. This is your unwise planning; Wu Sangui is in a chaotic world with two heads and two heads, and capriciousness. Traitor, you have fallen into the predicament of being betrayed by relatives and precarious, but you still welcome Wang Shirong, who deceives the world, steals his name, betrays his master and cheats his friends, into the army, and treats him like a guest. How can an ignorant, unkind, unwise, and ignorant person be worthy of the reputation of the Kansai horse kite, and how can he be the commander-in-chief of the three armies? Today Zhou has said so far, where to go, General Wang, you decide for yourself Bar!"

After Zhou Peigong finished speaking in a fit of anger, he walked to the table proudly, pulled over a chair, sat down with his legs up and his robes lifted, and glanced at everyone in the hall like lightning. This righteous and hearty reprimand made Wang Fuchen feel ashamed and frightened, and the fierce arrogance just now disappeared suddenly.He backed back again and again in panic, and finally fell down on the chair, unable to speak anymore. Wang Fuchen's subordinates were all desperadoes in bloody battles from the time they gathered in the mountains and forests to when they joined the army.In particular, Wang Fuchen's Chinese army guards are fierce, brave and unruly.How have they ever heard of these perceptive and sharp truths, and have they seen this knowledgeable and eloquent Wizard of the World?Although each of them looked dumbfounded on their faces, they secretly admired them in their hearts. Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Jianxun quickly cast Wang Shirong a look of asking for help. Wang Shirong was also uneasy.He knew that in terms of talents, he might not be Zhou Peigong's opponent.The reckless soldiers under Wang Fuchen were even more vulnerable.Seeing Wang Fuchen's dejected, remorseful expression, Wang Shirong knew very well that Zhou Peigong's speech just now had obviously moved Wang Fuchen's heart.If Ren Zhou Peigong continues to talk, this army will immediately turn back and surrender, which is terrible!This time I came all the way to Pingliang, not because of Wu Sangui, but according to the plan I discussed with Shang Zhixin in Guangzhou, I wanted to drag Wang Fuchen eastward, from Hanzhong and Xi'an, straight down to the Central Plains, to harass the rear of the officers and soldiers, Let Shang Zhixin be able to take things calmly.But now it seems that not only is this plan difficult to realize, but the trouble is not good, and whether he can get out of Pingliang City safely has become a problem.what should I do? Wang Shirong is a resourceful man.After considering the situation, he immediately thought of a countermeasure. He wanted to use Zhang Jianxun's banditry to turn this place upside down.Just when he raised his head to give Zhang Jianxun his eyes, Zhang Jianxun was also looking at him.Looking at each other, he didn't need to say anything, he gritted his teeth at Zhang Jianxun, and quietly made a decapitation gesture.Zhang Jianxun understood it, and shouted: "Where did the sour scholar come out, dare to speak out here and bully our commander in chief. Come and take it down with me!" As soon as he said this, several of his personal soldiers rushed With a promise, he rushed towards Zhou Peigong. But as soon as they arrived at Zhou Peigong's side, they were all stunned there again.Because what they were facing was not a vicious Vajra Arhat, nor a shivering muddy bastard, but an upright, awe-inspiring envoy from the Celestial Dynasty, a scholar who was knowledgeable, reasonable, and refined!What he said just now was so reasonable and convincing, but now the commander-in-chief didn't say anything, made a mistake, or hurt this Mr. Zhou, we can't afford it. Just when the group of soldiers were in a daze, Zhou Peigong said calmly: "Huh, in front of the general, subordinates can give orders at will; guests are invited, but they have to be tied up and arrested. General Wang, you are the leader of the army!" The ability, I will learn it today!" Wang Fuchen was startled, and was about to speak, but Zhang Jianxun suddenly ran up to Zhou Peigong, "It's so small, do you want to provoke? Today I want you to know how powerful I am, Lao Zhang." While talking, he grabbed Zhou Peigong in the chest, "Crack" With a single click, he tore off his cotton robe, Zhou Peigong was pulled forward and staggered forward, Zhang Jianxun roared at the soldiers: "Tied up!" Knowing Zhang Jianxun's temper, the soldiers didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly pulled and pulled Zhou Peigong up.Just at the moment of tugging and tugging, a thin red light flashed, and something fell from Zhou Peigong's body with a "dang".Zhou Peigong's hands were bound, and when he saw the object fall, he struggled to get out and threw himself on the ground, trying to pick it up with his own mouth. Zhang Jianxun had quick hands and eyes, jumped over and stepped on it, then bent over to pick it up, put it in his hand and looked at it, it turned out to be an arhat coin tied with a red thread.He looked at it, and suddenly laughed lewdly: "Hey, what kind of treasure do I think it is? It turned out to be a small coin. The Fuyuan Senate General of the Qing Dynasty, the dignified Qing Dynasty, only has this little property on him. Hee hee, don't be afraid , my old Zhang Jinshan Yinshan has seen it all, and I won’t miss you. Even if you give it to me, you can’t buy your life back. However, seeing you hang it around your neck and stick it to your heart, it’s very Precious. Oh... yes, yes, I understand, some girl in the capital must have given it to you as a souvenir. Is she beautiful? Tell me, where does she live, what is her name, and she treats us when we grow up. Zhang took this recitation and went to meet her for a while. How about it, are you willing? Ah? Ha..." Zhang Jianxun was still talking triumphantly, he was not on his guard against a person rushing up behind him suddenly, snatched the arhat coin with his hands, and then pulled out his sword to cut the rope on Zhou Peigong's body several times, protecting him in his own behind.Only then did he turn his face again, and roared loudly: "You are not allowed to be presumptuous in front of angels, whoever dares to act recklessly, I will kill him!" It became hasty, and no one in the hall expected that they were stunned by this big man's actions for a while.Zhou Peigong raised his eyes and saw that the person who saved him was none other than his grandma Gong Rongyu. It turned out that from the moment Zhou Peigong stepped into the gate, Gong Rongyu secretly made up his mind to protect his nanny with all his might, and to help him persuade Wang Fuchen to surrender anyway. He became a high-ranking official in the court, and was favored and reused by the emperor.This time in the battle of Pingliang, I really saw Peidi's ability.Unexpectedly, a frail scholar like him was able to defeat Wang Fuchen, who had led the army for more than 30 years, in the midst of a life-and-death struggle in the army.It was even more unexpected that this baby brother dared to break into this tiger's lair and wolf's lair alone, and faced the danger of killing his head by cooking in oil and cooking, he calmly uttered the earth-shattering truth.How much he hoped that Wang Fuchen would repent after hearing Zhou Peigong's words, make up his mind, make a wise decision, and surrender to the court.But Wang Fuchen had given in, but Zhang Jianxun jumped out, and wanted to repeat the old trick of killing officials and forcing rebellion in the Xi'an mansion in front of Wang Shirong.At this moment, when he saw the Arhat money falling from Peidi's body, his heart was suddenly suspended. He also has such an arhat coin, which he carries with him all the time.It was a souvenir from my mother to the two brothers.I remember that when he was just eight years old and Peidi was still a toddler, my mother strung these two arhat coins with a red thread, hung them around their necks, and told them to be like relatives no matter what time they came. Brothers share joys and sorrows and depend on each other in life and death.At that time because of the poverty of the family.Peidi still had to study, so he had no choice but to join the army.At the time of parting, the mother pulled the brothers to her side, stroked the arhat money, and said earnestly: "My child, mother's life is not good, I can't leave you any wealth and family property, this arhat money is my mother's heart. Go, son, when your brother grows up, I will let him bring this arhat coin to find you. At that time, no matter where you brothers go, seeing this arhat coin is like seeing your mother. Mother It's by your side." Right now, he still wears his arhat money on his heart, but Zhang Jianxun tore Peidi's one off.Moreover, Zhang Jianxun was mocking this arhat money presumptuously, and viciously insulting his old mother!He finally couldn't take it anymore.Brother Pei is in danger and his mother is humiliated, can Gong Rongyu stand up without drawing his sword?
