Chapter three hundred and forty-four foreigners kowtow

Wu Shigong returned to his camp just before dinner time.//Visit to download txt novels//The camp set up by the Henan Army was a bit far away from the Chinese Army where Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian were, and they had to pass through the camps of several friendly forces.

.

The one closest to the Henan Army was of course Liu Zeqing's Shandong Army. They hadn't seen each other for a while, and they became quite affectionate after meeting. Liu Zeqing pulled Wu Shigong and wanted to have a drink and chat together. Wu Shigong also readily agreed, and anyway, he sent these officials and families in Dengzhou City.

There is no rush, why not have a good chat with Liu Zeqing here.

But what surprised Wu Shigong was that when Liu Zeqing knew that Wu Shigong was going to see off the officials and officials who had been rescued from Dengzhou City, he immediately abandoned Wu Shigong and received them with all courtesy and hospitality.

However, Wu Shigong couldn't help but feel a little nauseous when he saw Liu Zeqing socializing among these people with a calm expression. It was not that he was disgusted with Liu Zeqing's actions, but that he deeply admired Liu Zeqing's strong sense of smell and nerves.

After drinking and eating, Wu Shigong passed through several friendly camps and finally arrived at the Chinese army where Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian were, asking to see these two adults.

These days, Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian are also worried. Although the battle to encircle and suppress Kong Youde's rebels went smoothly, they are now trapped in a long siege. In addition, they learned about Chongzhen from their respective relationships.

The emperor was somewhat dissatisfied with spending too much military pay, so Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian always wanted to send some good news to Emperor Chongzhen to reassure him.

So when Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian learned that Wu Shigong had rescued the officials in Dengzhou City, they were immediately overjoyed. By the way, they also changed their views on Wu Shigong and had some favorable impressions. So they immediately spread the news that Wu Shigong had brought those people with him.

Enter the Chinese army tent to pay homage.

The two adults' qi-nurturing skills were really good, and they looked calm under the influence of the strange smell. They were also interested in asking Wu Shigong about the rescue process.

Of course Wu Shigong would not confess that he invented curved bombardment. He started to talk about it, saying: shoot propaganda leaflets into Dengzhou City. Afterwards, the rebels were photographed by Wang Shi's power and felt the power of enlightenment, and wept bitterly.

He shouted that he wanted to give these officials to Wu Shigong.

Of course, Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian were well aware of Wu Shigong's bragging, but they did not expose it at all. Why? Is it because it is not a good material? Use education to make the rebels show weakness. This needs to be story-telling

It has to be story-telling and interesting. Emperor Chongzhen will definitely be very satisfied with such a memorial.

Of course, Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian did not think that no one in the court would see through this. However, who would be so ignorant as to disturb Emperor Chongzhen's interest and tear off the emperor's new clothes?

Besides, these officials were indeed rescued, and the results are all clear! As for whether Emperor Chongzhen will find out in the future, anyway, these are all reported by the idiot in front of him, and Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian just uploaded them truthfully.

, if there is any blame, let this silly Dusi bear it himself.

Therefore, Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian were more pleased with Wu Shigong. They just wanted to take credit for Wu Shigong, but they didn't expect that this stupid Dusi really acted stupidly and acted in the Chinese army's tent.

Of course Wu Shigong deliberately performed like this. Otherwise, he could have sent people to send these officials to the Chinese Army. Why bother to go there himself?

The main point of Wu Shigong's behavior was to cry for poverty. And he cried for poverty in front of the elders of Dengzhou City who entered the Chinese military tent. Anyway, Wu Shigong wanted everything, carts, mules and horses, grain and grass, gunpowder... Wu Shigong even proposed

He asked for paper. After making the leaflet, Wu Shigong realized that paper in the Ming Dynasty was expensive enough.

After arriving south of Dengzhou City, because Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian were not welcome, the supply of the Henan Army was only maintained at a minimum level.

However, Wu Shigong is not afraid that the two coaches will get stuck. He has Zhu Dadian's warrant. So these days, some nearby states and counties are in a state of panic due to the food requisition teams sent by the Henan Army. And Wu Shigong is not afraid of Zhu Dadian.

Dadian took back the warrant, and at most he told Zhu Dadian when the time came: Wu Shigong used the warrant as toilet paper. Anyway, it was a matter that had no proof.

Wu Shigong's behavior made Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian lose all face. After all, there are still three elders from Dengzhou City in the Zhongjun tent, but it is impossible to reprimand Wu Shigong indiscriminately. After all, Wu Shigong is these

The elder's savior. So Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian had to watch Wu Shigong's performance awkwardly.

What Wu Shigong wanted was this effect. His performance was even more free and easy. But after he was frothing at the mouth and talking nonsense for a while, he saluted the three elders and said: "Please comment on this theory for the students.

!" Everyone in the Chinese military tent almost fainted.

Zhu Dadian asked Wu Shigong in disbelief: "Wu Dusi also has a reputation?"

Wu Shigong replied with a proud salute: "The student is the scholar of Shuntian Prefecture!" At this time, Wu Shigong of course had to mention his identity as a scholar. Because in the Ming Dynasty, scholars could still reason with each other. But scholars were against military attaches.

But you don't have to be unreasonable. If Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian get into trouble and use violence to drive Wu Shigong out of the Chinese army regardless of face, Wu Shigong will have nowhere to complain.

Zhu Dadian looked at Wu Shigong's triumphant face with disgust, and thought to himself: "You are really a disgrace to a scholar!"

In the end, it was Zhu Dadian who suppressed Wu Shigong's arrogance because he discovered that Wu Shigong had just drank. Drinking in the military is a big deal, and generally it has no binding force on senior military attachés like Wu Shigong.

.But if Zhu Dadian insists on pursuing the case, there is no problem in beating Wu Shigong with dozens of military sticks.

So Zhu Dadian pretended to be furious and wanted to punish Wu Shigong with military law. The three elders definitely came forward to intercede for Wu Shigong, and Wu Shigong also got off the slope to thank the governor and the supervisor for their magnanimity.

In the end, Wu Shigong's military achievements were outweighed by his merits and demerits, and he only received 800 shi of grain and ten carts of gunpowder sent by Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian. And... and 200 knives of paper. Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian received

I still hope that Wu Shigong will continue to work hard.

When returning to the camp, Wu Shigong looked at the greatly reduced supplies and sighed in his heart: "It's the details that determine success or failure! It's better if you don't drink at noon!"

Therefore, Wu Shigong was very unhappy when he returned to the camp. He ordered Yang Rusong: "Immediately ask those people to wash them three times until they are no longer smelly. After dinner, bring them all over."

Second Lieutenant Gonzales and other thirty-one Portuguese people entered Wu Shigong's tent. They suddenly entered the brightly lit tent from a dark place, which made Gonzales and others' eyes a little uncomfortable. They squinted to adapt.

It took a while before Gonzalez could clearly see the situation inside the tent: he saw a young Ming Dynasty general sitting behind a major case in the tent with a serious face.

Gonzalez hesitated for a moment, then bent down and bowed deeply, and said: "Dear general, we are Francois from the West. We were invited by Minister Sun Yuanhua of the Ming Dynasty to teach firearms to the Ming army.

Fighting. I sincerely thank you for your rescue. God bless you!"

Maybe Gonzalez was a little excited, so he spoke a little fast. Wu Shigong was also very familiar with that tone of voice, it was the way Hong Kong people speak Mandarin. However, he is not afraid of anything, only the Cantonese people.

Talking in Mandarin! In addition, Gonzalez has a Portuguese accent, how can Wu Shigong understand this?

So Wu Shigong impatiently took a picture of the big case and said loudly: "What did you say?"

Seeing that Wu Shigong seemed to be angry, Yang Rusong misunderstood what Wu Shigong meant. He immediately pulled out his sword and shouted loudly at Gonzales and others: "Don't you know how to salute when you see us adults? Kneel down.

kowtow!"

Seeing that the guards in the tent had drawn their shining swords, Gonzalez and the others knelt down and kowtowed without hesitation. We are knives and I am fish and meat, so it would be okay if we don't kowtow.

In fact, when Westerners came to China at that time, they did not resist kneeling down and kowtow. They just followed the local customs. Besides, when they saw the Pope in the West, many nobles would kneel down and kiss the Pope's shoes. This kind of etiquette is also practiced in the West.

As for why Westerners are not even willing to kowtow to the Chinese emperor in the future, it is simply because they already look down on the backward China.

But Wu Shigong enjoyed this process very much. Seeing the white people in modern times who are often arrogant, kneeling at his feet with their butt sticking out, Wu Shigong's pride arose spontaneously. Wu Shigong thought proudly in his heart:

"This century-old national humiliation has finally been broken since I traveled through time!"

So Wu Shigong's mood suddenly turned cloudy. After all, he still had to win over these foreigners. So after they kowtowed a few times, Wu Shigong said with a smile: "Everyone, stand up and speak!"

After all, the Westerners were straight-minded. After hearing what Wu Shigong said, they all got up from the ground. But at this time, people like Gonzalez looked at Wu Shigong with some fear. They had been imprisoned for too long, and they had become

A flock of frightened birds.

Wu Shigong slowed down his speech as much as possible and asked Gonzalez: "Do you understand what I said?"

Gonzalez replied: "Understood. General!" Gonzalez also spoke very slowly this time. Wu Shigong, who had been influenced by Cantonese songs for many years, also understood what Gonzalez said.

"Okay! What's your surname, sir?" Wu Shigong asked again.
