After dinner, Chen Wen came to the threshing farm early, and only a few people in the village were preparing for selling food and wine. Soon, those who were already accustomed to listening to ancient times every day rushed over in groups.

Until Chen Wen started speaking on weekdays, Wu Dengke and others arrived with weapons. They nodded to Chen Wen and there was nothing else, so they waited quietly in the front row.

Seeing Wu Dengke and others coming with weapons, a large number of people hurriedly hid, while most of them just moved a little aside. They knew that Chen Wen would listen to the noise in ancient times, and they would not take action.

Chen Wen knew very well that those who came with weapons were his basic base, while those who surrounded these soldiers were reserve teams. As for the others, they could only be regarded as onlookers who did not know the truth.

After a while, when he saw that the person was almost here, Chen Wen coughed and after signaling everyone to be quiet, he began today's talk about ancient times.

"What I want to tell today is not a record in history books, but a story I heard my father tell repeatedly since I was a child. My father told me at the time that this story was told by his father, that is, his grandfather told him."

Seeing that everyone's interest had been mobilized, Chen Wen began to tell the story.

"In the 18th year of Zhizheng in the Yuan Dynasty, the Yuan general Yang Wanzhe led a large army to attack Huizhou. Yang Wanzhe was a Miao person. His father resisted the Yuan uprising and was later recruited. After Emperor Gao conquered Nanjing, he led his troops to garrison in Hangzhou."

"Back to the point, Huizhou was already an occupied area of ​​our Ming Dynasty. When Yang Wan came to attack, the defenders of Huizhou, Li Wenzhong, King Qiyang, Deng Yu, King Ninghe, and Duke of Yue, Hu Dahai, formed a formation under the city, and the Yuan army was defeated and fled."

"So, King Qiyang, King Ninghe and Duke of Yue led a large army out of Yuling Pass, defeated Yang Wanzhe's army again, gathered 30,000 troops, and drove south to occupy Yanzhou, Zhuji, Jinhua, Chuzhou and other places. At this time, Zhang Shicheng occupied Hangzhou and was eyeing the occupied area of ​​our Ming Dynasty. So King Qiyang raised the flag to recruit soldiers. A man named Chen Sansi joined the army of King Qiyang with his bravery. He was the protagonist of today's story."

"Chen Sansi is a native of Hangzhou New City. He is tall and brave. He usually makes a living by burning charcoal in the mountains. Because his family is extremely poor, no one is willing to betroth his daughter, so he is disdained by his neighbors. After King Qiyang recruited soldiers, Chen Sansi joined King Qiyang in order to have enough food and to have money to marry a wife."

In ancient times, people who burn charcoal in the mountains were poor and destitute, and were always shameful, because farmers could become rich peasants or landlords through hard work. The waiter in shops and restaurants also had the opportunity to become accountants or shopkeepers through hard work. However, as long as the poor man who burned charcoal did not change his career, he would always be poor. I have never heard of burning charcoal to get rich. Bai Juyi's "The Charcoal Selling Man" once borrowed this profession to criticize the corruption reality of society at that time.

"Someone may ask, since Chen Sansi is from Hangzhou, why don't he compete with Zhang Shicheng's army that has occupied Hangzhou?"

Perhaps Chen Wen's question aroused everyone's thoughts, and many people showed doubtful eyes.

"Actually, the reason is very simple, because Zhang Shicheng had surrendered to Baoyuan at that time and became the Grand Marshal of Baoyuan. Chen Sansi was a Han family. Even if he planned to join the army and eat food, why did he have to be a slave to the Tartars?"

"Okay!" As soon as Chen Wen finished speaking, someone shouted out immediately. Originally, Chen Wen thought he would be a member of the basic board or reserve team, but when he saw that the political component of the man who was leading the call was actually the onlookers who did not know the truth.

Well, this might be able to develop.

"Becoming a soldier under the command of King Qiyang, Chen Sansi became the personal soldier of King Qiyang with his courage and hard work. During that time, Chen Sansi tried his best to practice martial arts and would protect King Qiyang every time he fought, and would never allow anyone to hurt the commander of the army. With this loyalty, he began to gradually gain the attention of King Qiyang."

"In the 22nd year of Zhizheng, Yang Wanzhe's surrender Jiang Ying and others rebelled in Jinhua and killed Duke Yue Hu Dahai. At the same time, Li You and others, who were responsible for the garrison of Chuzhou, also launched a rebellion and killed Duke Si Geng Zaicheng. For a time, the situation in Zhejiang was very bad."

"At that time, there were Zhang Shicheng outside and rebels inside. King Qiyang made a quick decision to send troops to quell the Jinhua rebellion, appease his people, and attacked Jinyun, Chuzhou to prevent the rebels from attacking Jinhua."

"In the same year, Zhang Shicheng came to attack Zhuji with a large army of 100,000. At that time, King Qiyang divided many troops and was unable to resist the enemy, so he sent Chen Sansi and others to create rumors near Zhuji, lying that Pingzhang Shaorong, who went south to quell the rebellion of Chuzhou, was about to come to fight Zhang Shicheng with King Zhongshan Xu Da, who was shocked when Zhang Shicheng heard the news and prepared to retreat overnight. The adopted son of King Qiyang, Hu Deji, Duke of Yue, and Xie Zaixing, the governor of Zhuji, went out of the city to pursue him, and Zhang Shicheng's army was defeated."

"After this battle, Chen Sansi became a small officer of the Qiyang King's personal army. It was precisely because of his performance that Qiyang King began to teach him some tips for training, hoping that he could become a self-contained general in the future."

"In the 23rd year of Zhizheng, Xie Zaixing surrendered to Zhang Shicheng and led his troops to attack Dongyang County. Seeing this, King Qiyang led his troops to fight in Yiwu, commanding thousands of cavalry to sweep the enemy's formation, defeating Xie Zaixing, and recovering Zhuji. At that time, Chen Sansi was on the side and beheaded five levels, and the troops he led beheaded twelve levels."

"In the 25th year of Zhizheng, Zhang Shicheng sent general Li Bosheng to lead an army of 200,000 to attack Xincheng. King Qiyang led his troops to help, stationed ten miles outside the city, and supported the city. The next day, heavy fog was covered and the sky was dark. King Qiyang vowed in front of the army: The country's affairs are here, and I dare not live and die in the three armies. After hearing this, the morale is greatly boosted. When the battle was fought, King Qiyang led the central army and rushed in front. The enemy then besieged them with elite cavalry. King Qiyang still fought to himself. At this time, the reinforcements of Chuzhou arrived and the two sides worked together. Zhang Shicheng's army was defeated and beheaded tens of thousands of people. The commander Li Bosheng was only exempted."

"In this battle, Chen Sansi led dozens of elite cavalry to protect his wings beside King Qiyang. When King Qiyang was besieging the enemy, Chen Sansi tried to lead his subordinates to kill the enemy while fighting bloody battles. He still fought to the death without retreating, and finally helped King Qiyang to achieve a complete victory."

"After the war, Chen Sansi was appointed as a hundred households and led a unit of Qiyang King's Central Army. It was also in this year that he married a colleague's sister, and in the next year, he even had his only son in his life."

The story tells that a poor and destitute man who was promoted step by step with his loyalty, wit and courage, finally became a middle-level officer, and also had his wife and the eldest son of the inherited surname. This is also the most typical inspirational story in the hearts of many military households or lower-level people in the Ming Dynasty.

His story is obviously not over yet. At least the people who listened to Chen Wen's ancient story in the threshing ground hope that the men in the story will continue to be promoted, because the protagonist of this story is very different from many heroes Chen Wen once told. His poor background gave these people at the bottom of society a stronger sense of inclusion.

"In the 26th year of Zhizheng, Emperor Gao attacked Zhang Shicheng, and King Qiyang was ordered to attack Hangzhou as a restraining force. After King Qiyang entered the city of Hangzhou, he ordered that those who entered the residences died, and Chen Sansi were appointed as a garrison to supervise military discipline. At that time, a soldier forced himself to borrow cooking utensils from the people. Chen Sansi stood up to tie him up and walked to the downtown city in the city and beheaded the people, and the people in Hangzhou were safe. After that, King Qiyang won 30,000 troops and 200,000 grain, mostly due to Chen Sansi's beheading the troops and calming the people."

"In the second year of Hongwu, King Qiyang went out of the frontier to attack Emperor Shun of Kaiping from King Chang Yuchun. When he returned to Liuhechuan, King Kaiping died suddenly in the army due to illness. King Qiyang then took charge of the entire army. When he arrived in Taiyuan, he heard that Datong was in an emergency and led troops out of Yanmen Pass and stationed at Baiyangmen. Yuan soldiers took advantage of the night to steal the camp, and King Qiyang remained motionless. By dawn, the Yuan soldiers arrived. King Qiyang led two battalions of troops to lure the enemy to attack. When the enemy was exhausted, he rushed out from left to right, defeated the enemy, and captured and killed more than 10,000 people. After the war, Chen Sansi was promoted to a thousand households."

"In the third year of Hongwu, King Qiyang was ordered to fight northward. Halfway through the journey, he heard that Emperor Shun of Yuan was dead, and his crown prince was newly established, so he led the army to Yingchang. When the pseudo-president fled, he fled. King Qiyang captured his eldest son, concubines, palace maids, kings, generals and ministers, and pursued them with cavalry and returned to Beiqingzhou. After several battles, he captured more than 50,000 Yuan troops. After this battle, Chen Sansi was promoted to the commander of the guards."

"In the fifth year of Hongwu, King Qiyang was ordered to fight north again, and the Tatars fled when they heard the news. King Qiyang ordered his general Han Zheng to protect the baggage and personally led the army, each carrying food and grass for twenty days to pursue the Yuan soldiers. When he arrived at the Tula River, he finally caught up with the Yuan Taishi Barbarian Halazhang. Seeing that the king's army had arrived, the Tatars hurriedly retreated to the Aluhun River."

"When King Qiyang leads his troops to chase the Aluhun River, the number of Tartars suddenly increases. King Qiyang is calm in the face of danger, and the commander's army launches an attack. In the fierce battle, King Qiyang gets arrows in the war horse. After falling off the horse, he still holds his sword to fight with the enemy. Later, King Qiyang regains his war horse and fights to the death. Finally, he defeats the enemy and captures tens of thousands of people."

"However, after King Qiyang was brought down, the commander Chen Sansi led his troops back to the rescue. In order to protect King Qiyang, he eventually died in battle by the commander he followed throughout his life."

Speaking of this, the protagonist of the story finally did not escape the fate of being wrapped in a corpse by a martial artist. This loyal and brave man also became deeply rooted in the hearts of the people as the story progressed. When he learned about his death in battle, everyone in the threshing ground showed a look of regret.

Seeing this, Chen Wen then said: "In the Battle of Aluhunhe, except for the commander Chen Sansi, the commander Cao Liangchen, the commander Zhou Xian, Chang Rong and Zhang Yao all died in battle. Therefore, Emperor Gao did not give him a reward."

"After King Qiyang returned to the court, Emperor Gao learned about the story of Chen Sansi, a loyal and brave man, and issued a special order: Chen Youdi, the son of the commander-in-chief Chen Sansi, was appointed as the captain of Zhaoxin, and served as the Left Guard of Qingzhou, and was inherited from generation to generation! In the second year of Yongle, Emperor Chengzu moved Qingzhou Left Guard to Tianjin Right Guard, and this position was transferred to Tianjin Right Guard of Tianjin Right Guard."

"As for the commander Chen Sansi in the story, he is his ancestor, and my family's hereditary military posts are also obtained in this way."

The hero finally got good results, which is what everyone is happy to see. But after Chen Wen said the last sentence, everyone widened their eyes and was shocked. They never thought that the protagonist of the original story was Chen Wen, who came to talk about ancient times every day. In their eyes, they were very knowledgeable about ancient times and modern times, and they were able to be civil officials to be talented.

This story was created by Chen Wen based on the experience of Qi Jiguang's sixth-generation ancestor Qi Xiang and in Li Wenzhong's chronology. It was a killer weapon created by him to three-dimensionalize his image and his hereditary identity as a hundred households. At the same time, he could also achieve some goals he needed to achieve. It can be said that he won multiple goals in one go. Of course, except for the loss that he forcibly ignored, he was still very satisfied with the others.

However, the surplus value of this story has not been effectively utilized so far.

"From childhood to adulthood, my father told me repeatedly, just like his father, that is, my grandfather told him repeatedly when he was a child, and my grandfather also listened to his father's words."

Chen Wen remembered that in his family, there was a cousin who had not yet been given five sermons, who died bravely in the war to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea in the early days of the founding of the Republic. He remembered that the cousin who had not gotten married and had not left behind had become the glory of the whole family when he crossed the Yalu River, and even his sacrifice only deepened the nostalgia of the tribe members.

Because everyone knows that he sacrificed for China's future, he died in battle so that the Chinese people will no longer be looked down upon by outsiders, and he sacrificed his country bravely to clean up the shame that China has experienced since the war.

When Chen Wen recalls his grandfather, grandma, father, mother and uncle of the clan when he was young, he would remember a comic he had read. In that comic, every rabbit has a dream of a great country in his heart!

From his arrival in this era, he truly realized that there was such a dream of a great country in his heart. He was willing to do his best to end the Qing Dynasty's rule, and thus rewrite the history of the Chinese nation full of humiliation in advance.

"From the day I went south, I would tell myself this story every night before going to bed. What I hope most is that in a hundred years, my son will tell my grandson the heroic deeds I have done in this end of China, which was almost destroyed by the Tartars again, to expel the Tartars and save the people, while repeating this story."

"Today, I, Chen Wen, stood with my head on the land of Zhejiang that my ancestors had fought for, and sweared to the heaven: the thick soil of the sky is evidenced by the ancestors. From today, from Zhejiang, I, Chen Wen, will expel the Tartars, restore the old land of China, and rebuild the peaceful rule of the world. If you violate this oath, the heaven will be punished and the earth will be destroyed, and the three souls and seven spirits will be transformed into nothingness. If you violate this oath, the ancestors will not be able to rest in their tombs. The descendants of the people will be thieves and the women will be prostitutes!"

Since the mountain breeze blew at the threshing ground all night last night, Chen Wen finally figured out why he wanted to go to Fujian.

When he first arrived at a strange environment, he triggered fear deep in his heart, and this fear in turn affected his judgment ability.

At that time, out of fear of the torrent of history, out of fear of the Qing cavalry slaughtering the land of China, and even more out of fear of the daily internal struggles of various tribes of the Southern Ming Dynasty, he wanted to go to Fujian, grow and grow little by little under Zheng Chenggong's wings, and then decide the outcome in one battle. In this way, even if he failed, at least in his lifetime, Taiwan and Nanyang could be used as a place to live.

However, after a night of thinking, he finally realized that this kind of thought should not have.

Since the taxi carried him to Zhejiang in this era, there must be his reason. The Han people in this era did not lack heroes who dared to fight with the Qing Dynasty to the end, but they lacked a correct ideological guidance and a real idol to follow. They should not end step by step under the leadership of one leader after another, either loyal or ulterior motives, but should play a greater role in this battle to resist the catastrophe of the end of the world.

As a time traveler, Chen Wen has come to Zhejiang in this era, there is no reason not to stand up and lead the Han family in Zhejiang to recover the lost land, so that those barbarians and traitors who accomplice tigers under the barbarians' wings will be punished as they deserve. This is his mission to come to this era, rather than hiding under Zheng Chenggong's wings and doing those stealing activities.

The most important thing is that if he is determined to become a hero like Qi Jiguang, he should fight like a man. Even if he fails, he should die on the battlefield, rather than hiding in Taiwan or being an apartment in Nanyang.

As for Shi Lang, Chen Wen believes that his decision today is just to let that guy live a few more years. When he really has the strength to fight the Qing Dynasty to the death, isn’t a traitor who only knows how to fight naval battles just a small character who is easy to win?

At this moment, Hu Er, who seemed to be responding to Chen Wen's oath, was wearing a slept with a solemn face, walked towards Chen Wen with the letter of appointment written on white hemp paper in his hands. Behind him, two brightly dressed followers were holding Chen Wen's white horse, and the other holding the tray of the mountain armor and sword in the hand, following Hu Er.

Hu Er walked closer and saw Chen Wen immediately turned his back to everyone, and fell to the ground. He opened the white hemp paper and read aloud as he was at Sun's house at noon today.

"Now, Chen Wen, a hundred households of the Right Guard in Tianjin, made great contributions to his advice. He traveled thousands of miles apart and joined the king's army, and was determined to defeat the enemy. His heart was expressive and his ambition was commendable. He specially awarded the position of guerrilla general of the old camp in Dalanshan, and agreed to train the new camp. I hope that he would not forget the deep kindness of the country and fight bravely to kill the enemy. In this way, on the day of success, the court will not hesitate to be awarded the marquis."

The signature is: The Ming Dynasty governs the military affairs of Zhizhe, the left minister of the Ministry of War and the left deputy chief censor Wang; July 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20

That is today.

The people in the threshing ground listened to all this in amazement. In the eyes of the ancients, the oaths made by their ancestors and descendants were the most poisonous oaths, and many people would rather die than disobey them. Because once they violated their oaths, they would not be able to rest even after death.

Hu Er's appearance and Wang Yi's appointment letter brought this impact to the extreme. No one expected that a guerrilla general would be released in such a way under their witness.

At this moment, even Wu Dengke did not have time to associate Chen Wen's current learning and application, but was surprised that all the plans were so violent with the villagers who had already been loyal to Chen Wen.

Under the gaze of everyone who was afraid of missing something even if they were blinking, Chen Wen changed into mountain Wen armor and swords with the help of Hu Er's two servants. When Chen Wen turned around, the scholar who was once a knowledgeable scholar turned into a heroic general in an instant in front of everyone's eyes.

After doing a long time of preparation, he made another night of show, just to come for the next moment. Seeing that everyone was still immersed in shock, Chen Wen took a step forward without hesitation and said loudly: "Wang Jingluo has ordered that I will build a new battalion. You are all good men from Zhejiang. Are you willing to follow me to rebuild the Qi family army, expel the Tartars, and restore the lost territory?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Dengke immediately woke up from his dreamlike state. He saw him coming out and shouting: "Everyone knows that my grandfather of Wu Dengke and General Wu Weizhong, the general under Qi Shaobao, are brothers of the same clan. Decades ago, General Wu Weizhong followed Qi Shaobao to eliminate the Japanese pirates and the northern captivity. Today, Wu Dengke is willing to follow General Chen, expel the Tartars, recover the lost territory, and win a chance to win a wife and son, and to glorify his ancestors." As he said that, Wu Dengke leaned on the ground with a long spear in his right hand and knelt down in front of Chen Wen on one knee.

At this time, a man from Yiwu shouted: "Yiwu is where Qi Shaobao recruited and trained troops back then. The original Qi family army was mostly my Yiwu son. We, the good men in Yiwu County, were never willing to be reluctant to rebuild the Qi family army. We asked General Chen to accept us and rebuild the Qi family army!" As he said that, the Yiwu men were kneeling down with him.

This scene shocked Chen Wen because this man was not a basic member who had already sworn allegiance in the Sun family courtyard during the day, but a reserve team. This made him realize that he had actually underestimated how lethal the rebuilding of the Qi family army was to the people in Jinhua Mansion.

At this moment, Yin Ergou, who had always been unwilling to be inferior, also knelt down on the ground. "We, the Han men from Dongyang County, were willing to follow General Chen and go through fire and water, and they were willing to refuse." At the same time, Yin Ergou's village party also knelt down on the ground with him.

Chen Wen estimated that there were more than 20 people, not many less than men from Yiwu County.

"We are the men of Jinhua Mansion, and we will follow General Chen to the death, expel the Tartars, and restore our hometown!"

"We Zhuji people are also willing to follow General Chen to the death, and will never refuse."

"What are the villagers of Taizhou Prefecture waiting for? Follow General Chen and rebuild peace!"

“…”

Gradually, the agitation gradually spread. In a short while, two or three hundred people fell to the ground. The remaining people stood there restlessly, with a complicated expression.

He prepared so much in the early stage just to present this scene. However, Chen Wen knew very well that impulse was one thing, and really eating food in the army was another thing, and he did everything just to gather a group of real righteous men.

Seeing this, Chen Wen said loudly: "You guys, joining the army is a big event that concerns the family. At this moment, I will not record your lives. I will go back to discuss with the elders at home in the evening. Tomorrow morning, it will be here. The righteous men who are willing to follow me will join the old camp to join the army and eat food with me!"

After saying that, Chen Wen turned over and stepped on the white horse, and gradually disappeared from everyone's sight with the small steps of the white horse.

From the time he heard that Chen Wen was appointed as a guerrilla general, the storyteller who came to steal the skills opened his mouth wide, as if his chin was about to fall and hit his feet the next moment. It was not until Chen Wen left that he wiped off the drool that had flowed out of his mouth for a long time and muttered to himself: "I didn't expect Storyer to be able to become a general."

Soon, Chen Wen returned to the gate of the Sun family's courtyard. He stroked the white horse's neck and got off the horse's back with the help of Sun Yu.
Chapter completed!
