Chapter 365 Zhou Shizong Chai Rong (1)(1/2)
Guo Mu turned out to be Chai Rong, Zhou Shizong!
Zhang Hua almost got up.
Chen Qiao and Yang Ye’s judgments are too astonishing.
Who can associate the sloppy refugee on the martial arts competition stage with the wise and powerful Zhou Shizong Chai Rong?!
Chen Qiao's judgment is not without reason. Chai Rong is also known as Guo Rong. If the first half of the word Rong is removed, it is the word "Mu".
Therefore, Guo Mu is Guo Rong and Chai Rong!
A generation of heroes actually came to defect to themselves?!
Zhang Hua was even more shocked than conquering Yang Miaozhen.
This is an emperor, and he is not a literary and artistic emperor like Li Yu, but a truly hero in troubled times who is both civil and military!
Chai Rong was Zhao Kuangyin's former boss. If Chai Rong did not die, Zhao Kuangyin would stand aside.
If Zhao Kuangyin knew that Chai Rong, who had been inquiring about his whereabouts, suddenly appeared in Chang'an City, I wonder what he would feel.
"Guo Mu is Guo Rong's business. No one of you can disclose this news!"
After Chen Qiao and Yang Ye identified the other party's identity, Zhang Hua immediately reminded the two of them not to spread the shocking news.
Although Zhang Hua didn't know why Chai Rong wanted to be named Guo Mu, and why Chai Rong was so down, with Chai Rong's wisdom, he chose to be named Guo Mu to participate in the martial arts held by Zhang Hua's forces, so there was Chai Rong's reason.
What is the specific reason? Zhang Hua judged that Chai Rong probably didn't want Zhao Kuangyin to know that he was still alive.
Therefore, Zhang Hua cannot let the news spread.
On the contrary, hiding the news of Chai Rong in his own power would be beneficial to the attack on Songzhou and Bianzhou that attacked Zhao Kuangyin!
Chai Rong can become a trump card against Zhao Kuangyin!
Thinking of this, Zhang Hua couldn't help but feel excited.
Chai Rong's force may not be as strong as Zhao Kuangyin, but in other aspects, he is definitely fighting with Zhao Kuangyin.
Moreover, Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin had conflicts, and as long as there was a conflict, Zhang Hua could take advantage of them.
After all, Chai Rong's wife and son are still in the hands of Zhao Kuangyin.
This is something that Zhang Hua can use Chai Rong.
"know."
Chen Qiao and Yang Ye were also shocked by his own judgment.
Zhou Shizong Chai Rong was once a great enemy of Chen Qiao, who served in the Southern Tang Dynasty and Yang Ye, who served in the Northern Han Dynasty. Because Chai Rong frequently launched wars, he wanted to destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Northern Han Dynasty, which made Chen Qiao and Yang Ye tremble.
Unfortunately, Chai Rong died young not long after he ascended the throne.
Otherwise, Chai Rong might have completed unification and recovered the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun that were ceded by Shi Jingtang from the Khitans.
After Zhao Kuangyin ascended the throne, he inherited Chai Rong's political legacy and basically unified the world step by step according to Chai Rong's strategy.
What's even more regrettable is that after Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Guangyi, who ascended the throne, began to lose his fortune and failed to recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, which led to the Song Dynasty being suppressed by the northern cavalry.
Chen Qiao fell into deep thought: "But why did Chai Rong appear here, and why was he so embarrassed in ragged clothes, unkempt face? With his ability, in a few years, he had been lying on the side and had hundreds of thousands of troops, so why was it difficult?"
Zhang Hua and Yang Ye nodded, all agreed with Chen Qiao's opinion.
With Chai Rong's ability, as long as he established a village like Zhang Hua in the early stage, he conquered cities and land and developed to the present. Not to mention becoming the overlord of Liu Xiu's level, but he must be at the same level as Cao Cao, Gao Huan, and Zhao Kuangyin.
However, Chai Rong became a refugee and condescends to participate in the military exercises held by Zhang Hua and becomes an official as a military general.
Something must have happened in the past few years.
Zhang Hua is very interested in Chai Rong’s story in recent years.
Lin Renzhao of the Southern Tang Dynasty was a military general who had fought with Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin. Although he had never seen Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin with his own eyes, he remembered the portraits of the two.
After gradually identifying that Guo Mu is Chai Rong, Lin Renzhao was in a complicated mood.
Once, Chai Rong, the imperial commander in charge, commanded the army, attacked the Southern Tang, and captured Huainan. Lin Renzhao led thousands of Tang troops, advancing on land and water, and lit wooden boats full of firewood, went downstream and attacked the Zhou army's floating bridge. However, due to the change in the wind direction, Lin Renzhao's Tang army was defeated.
Lin Renzhao was not lucky enough to do anything, and he was powerless in the face of such a situation where the heavens were not good.
Lin Renzhao didn't have much hatred for Chai Rong, because Chai Rong was also an unlucky guy and soon died young.
Chai Rong and Yu Du fought for dozens of rounds. Chai Rong took Yu Du's big knife with a gun, and his sharp soldier was against Du's throat.
"I lost."
Yu Du knew that his force was slightly inferior to Chai Rong, and everyone could see it, so he decisively admitted that it was worse than that.
Chai Rong put away his gun and clasped his fists at Zhang Hua.
Yu Du also retreated.
At this point, all the military generals selected by the thirty-two members were fully discussed, and Zhang Hua had basically figured out the details and abilities of everyone.
"In this martial arts competition, the top scholar in the martial arts competition is designated as Yang Miaozhen."
Zhang Hua followed the purest concept of the martial arts ritual, respected force, and promoted Yang Miaozhen to be the top scholar in this martial arts ritual.
If we talk about comprehensive abilities, Chai Rong is the strongest.
But there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. There is no controversy to use Yang Miaozhen, the master of gun technique, as the top scholar.
In addition, Zhang Hua intends to help Chai Rong hide it as Guo Mu, and does not let everyone notice Chai Rong.
Currently, only Zhang Hua, Chen Qiao, Yang Ye, Lin Renzhao and others know about Chai Rong's identity.
In addition to Yang Miaozhen and Chai Rong, two great-level figures, Lin Renzhao of the Southern Tang Dynasty, Gongsun Kang of the late Han Dynasty, and Lanqin of the Southern Liang Dynasty, were also good generals.
Finally, there were third-rate generals including Li Wu and Yu Du.
Zhang Hua each has its own appointments.
"Yang Miaozhen, Guo Mu, and Lin Huzi stayed, and the rest will be retreated for the time being."
Zhang Hua deliberately left behind the three strongest generals selected this time.
"A person as strong as me is not qualified to be received. It seems that there is someone outside of me, and there is a god outside of me."
Gongsun Kang was the overlord of Liaodong at the end of the Han Dynasty, but he did not receive the highest level of attention in this martial arts.
There is no way. Gongsun Kang did not have much presence in the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty. Although it was not bad, it was not as good as Zhang Hua's own meeting.
"You two stay again, I want to talk to Guo Mu alone."
Zhang Hua asked Yang Miaozhen and Lin Renzhao to wait aside and summon Chai Rong alone.
Even Yang Miaozhen was stunned now.
Originally, Yang Miaozhen thought that she, who had the highest force, would be most valued by Zhang Hua, but she did not expect that Zhang Hua valued refugees named Guo Mu more.
Xu Chu and Lu Lingqi are guarding Zhang Hua.
Chai Rong's force is not as powerful as a general, but his force is still about 80. If Chai Rong wants to assassinate Zhang Hua, it is still possible to succeed. Therefore, Xu Chu and Lu Lingqi try to avoid such extreme situations.
Chai Rong was summoned by Zhang Hua alone. With his wisdom, he also knew that Zhang Hua might have known his true identity, but Chai Rong still looked calm.
Chai Rong experienced the ups and downs of his life, and his mentality was very different from that of his youthful spirit.
"If I guess correctly, your real name should be Chai Rong."
"good."
"What happened to you in the past few years? Why did you fall to this point? Why did you come to surrender to me?"
Zhang Hua stared at Chai Rong's vicissitudes of life and had many questions in his heart.
Chai Rong picked up the teacup and said in a casual manner: "I was adopted by my uncle Guo Wei as my adopted son. Because my uncle and son died young, I ascended the throne to Emperor Zhou. I once vowed to pacify the world for thirty years, to develop the world for ten years, to support the people for ten years, and to bring peace to the people for ten years. However, God only gave me five and a half years, and then I was seriously ill. On the dying moment, I came to Mobei for some reason and met a Mongolian witch doctor, and I was lucky enough to survive."
"Are you in Mobei before?"
Zhang Hua saw from Chai Rong's eyes that Chai Rong did not lie.
Although Chai Rong was a wise ruler and determined to pacify the world for 30 years, unfortunately, Chai Rong had only been in power for five and a half years before he died of illness.
Chai Rong came to this world when he was critically ill and happened to appear in Mobei and met a Mongolian witch doctor.
Chai Rong continued: "I met many Han people who were also living in the local area in Mobei, so I summoned these Han people to form an army and attack various tribes. During the heyday, I also had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Unfortunately, I met that person who began to unify the Mongolian tribes, and I was also attacked by a large number of Mongolian cavalry."
"Unified Mongolia? Who is the person you are talking about?"
"Temujin."
"Temujin!"
Zhang Hua felt a storm in his heart.
Genghis Khan Temujin was actually in the north of the Mo River, and a few years ago, he had already begun to unify the Mongolian tribes!
Temujin is trying to rebuild the Mongol Empire!
"What happened later?"
"We broke out in the Langjuxu Mountain. Temujin divided his cavalry into thirteen wings and the offensive continued. My troops killed a Mongolian 1000-strong commander and three Mongolian 100-strong commander. In the end, I was defeated by Temujin because I was outnumbered and imprisoned in Temujin's dungeon. Two years later, because the dungeon was attacked by the Mongolian tribe who was enemies of Temujin, I escaped back to the Central Plains by luck."
Chai Rong spoke out his experiences over the past few years, and his tone was calm.
