Vol 6 Chapter 33: Shuhe (below)

In the quaint courtyards of Ankang City, the afternoon sun shines and the breeze blows, with a faint fishy smell. Dai Meng slowly described the situation in the world, and in the eyes of Lu Zhongming next to him, there was gradually a light of comprehension.
"The fair party... He Wen... said he came from the Southwest, but in fact, He Wen and Southwest are in the same mind. It's hard to say. Moreover, even if He Wen has a good look at Southwest, he has some respect for Mr. Ning. The fair party, together with Hewen, who can speak and count, has a total of five people. His subordinates drive the people into soldiers, and the good and the bad are uneven. This is the flaw and the problem..."
"Zou Xu, the Central Plains of Ruguan, had only tens of thousands of troops when he was in Xuzhou. When Liu Chengzong led the main force to Liangshan, he became selfish and self-reliant. How can the millions of people in the Fair Party be concentric with the Southwest Black Flag? After Qi defeated Jurchen, his fame was extremely high for a while, and the Fair Party used its fame to make it happen. It clearly recognized this confusion, not to mention it..."
"At the moment, the Southwestern soldiers are strong and strong, and they are strong for a while. There is no doubt. But those who can wave the flag and stand on their own, who do not have the slightest ambition? Jindi and Southwestern seem to be affectionate, but in fact, the heroine can really become a heart The person next to the devil’s pillow? It’s just a joke of the good guys... Southeast Fuzhou, after your majesty ascended the throne, he is determined to revitalize. He also has a bit of incense for Ning Liheng when he talks about him. But if one day he can really revitalize the Wu Dynasty, he Between the black flag and the black flag, is there really someone who will voluntarily back down?"
"The black flag is the first, and the people of the world now seek to gain a foothold, and then seek second place, and when they really become second, they will have to face the problem of fighting with the black flag. As long as the fair party is a little bit two-minded, it can't get around. This hurdle."
"The disciple understands." Lu Zhongming on the side was convinced.
Dai Mengwei continued to move forward: "He opened the door and wanted to have a hero meeting. We should go and join in. No matter how evil the fair party is, we won't beat the smiley people at this time. As long as there is the possibility of cooperation in the future, we should meet at this time. Meet and talk. Moreover, the hero meeting is ridiculous for a while, but as long as you calm down, all parties in the world will know that this is an opportunity. In the realm of the fair party, you will run into it. There is not only a fair party. The old man believes that anyone who has a long-term vision and worries about the Southwest will not miss this conference."
Lu Zhongming nodded: "The contest is small on the bright side, and whoever goes down in private is the future variable."
"This matter needs to be changed on the fly, and it is not easy to handle it properly. Therefore, only if you lead the team to be a teacher can you rest assured." Dai Mengwei smiled, "Let's take a closer look in the future, maybe the female prime minister who has the best relationship with the Southwest , I secretly dispatched people to go there, that would be interesting."
"The disciples will do their best to explore the truth and truth under the five parties of the fair party. As the teacher said, millions of people will inevitably have ghosts, and there will never be fewer people available for wooing." Lu Zhongming said, "Just this. The battle is about to come, and the matter of food and grass in the rear is the most sensitive. If the disciples leave at this time, I am afraid that among the brothers... there are not many who are good at counting..."
Dai Mengwei has been suffering from starvation for a year, and finally planted something to send troops to the Central Plains, which is a desperate move. But at the same time, every portion of the grain and grass in the rear is squeezed out. To ensure the smooth use of troops on the front line, these grains and grass must be vigorously eliminated on the one hand to prevent corruption and restrict all parties in the army, and on the other hand, they must be ready to suppress rear mutiny at any time. In addition, the entire system of collecting and transporting grain is itself a major project that tests the ability to handle things. As long as the person in charge has a little selfishness, it may endanger Dai Mengwei's entire influence.
"I will personally sit down for a period of time for the grain collection. I know your worries, so I don’t want to." Dai Meng said, "In addition, I have new arrangements for things ahead. Within a year, I will By the time you enter Bianliang, you can be sure about it. You can use this as a prerequisite to talk about important things when you travel east."
"There is a big change in the frontline situation?"
"It’s not appropriate to say more about this. You go to Jiangning, and I won’t tell you too many details for the time being as a teacher. You just watch it quietly... But there is another thing that is related to your trip. You need to talk about it first. Know..."
The master and disciple talked slowly, passing through the long corridor. At this time, some of the heroes of the Green Forest who participated in the fight last night and took a break in the morning have arrived at the main hall of the courtyard and gathered in the hall. Many of these people were originally rebellious and unruly green forest tycoons, but they were gathered under the courtesy of Dai Mengwei. In the past few months, they have been run in by Dai Mengwei’s teachings and removed some of their original private thoughts. After a lot of cooperation, even the top few big green forest tyrants can greet each other happily after meeting each other. After the gathering, the people formed a formation, and they were no longer like the mob.
The afternoon sun shone into the courtyard. Soon after, Dai Mengwei and Lu Zhongming also walked in.
The old man, known as the sage of today, first picked up the crutches, graciously thanked everyone, praised their hard work last night, and mourned the dead hero. Then the leaders Wei He, Chen Bian, Qiu Changying and others were seated.
"...Recent events reminded the old man of a strong hero last year. Many of you may have heard of or known him. This person is named Xu Yuanzong, a master of marksmanship in Hankou. He holds a gun. Moving forward, the flies can be stabbed in Zhangyu, and there are hundreds of shots. Mr. Chen has played against him, and he should have a deep memory."
Chen Bian on the side arched his hands: "Brother Xu... died at the hands of the demon. It's a pity, but it's also strong..."
"This matter is actually the old man's fault." Dai Mengwei looked at the people in the hall, with compassion in his eyes. "At that time, the old man had just taken over the chaos here, and there was still no way to deal with many things. Hearing that there was such a hero in Hankou, the editor asked him Come here. At that time... the old man didn’t know much about the heroes on the rivers and lakes, he knew his martial arts, and when the Southwest Conference was about to be held, he asked him to go to the southwest like the old hero of Zhou... Recalling this, this is a big mistake of the old man."
"Xu Yingxiong seeks benevolence and benevolence, how could it be Gong Dai's fault."
Everyone in the hall said, "Yes, Xu Yingxiong sacrificed for justice, just like Zhou Yingxiong..."
"There was a mistake, it was also in the southwest..."
"The devil can't die..."
In these words, Dai Mengwei waved his hand: "Xu Yingxiong seeks benevolence and gains benevolence. It is the hero's work. However, the old man was wrong because he was too narrow in the past. Everyone, you used to live in the same place, practice martial arts, or are heroes, Or a husband, this is correct. But since this year, if you contribute to your homeland, then you are no longer a hero or a husband. You should be called a scholar of the country."
He said: "You are here to abandon the past, abandon the views of the past door, communicate with each other, and then have today's weather. The old man has studied all his life, but it is only now that he knows what the national scholars are for. At that time, Xu Yuanzong was generous at my request. Going to Yi, he is a scholar of the country, but if the old man is not too ignorant, he stays here, communicates with you, and even brings out the available juniors, then he will play a far greater role than going to Yi in the southwest. Just like yesterday’s beaming clowns and mobs, even if they were brave for a while, they couldn’t do anything. Xu Yuanzong is a hero, but the old man is ignorant and stupid. He feels ashamed every time he thinks about it."
When he said this, he raised the teacup and poured the tea in the cup onto the ground. Everyone looked at each other, and they were all moved. They bowed their heads in silence for a moment, and couldn't think of what to say.
Putting down the teacup, after a moment of silence, Dai Meng said, "You are all nationals, so you should use it in the most important place, such as protecting me as an old man by the side of an old man. I really shouldn't..."
Chen Bian wanted to say something, Dai Mengwei waved his hand in advance: "But there is one thing today, which is very serious, and the old man thought, it's time for you to stand upright and stand up...this matter, You must have heard of it, it is the hero meeting to be held in Jiangning."
When he said this, everyone looked at each other, and they all hesitated. After a while, how did Wei speak, and they all said that the Jiangning Heroes Conference was picking up people’s teeth, some ridiculous claims, and the Jiangbei war was approaching, they were all willing to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. , To serve a credit here.
Dai Meng smiled, first admired the people’s will, and then said: "... But when you go to Jiangning, on the one hand, you can represent us upright and make a name for yourself; on the other hand, you represent the goodwill of the old man. I hope to bring some suggestions to the heroes of the world."
The old man said: "Since ancient times, the status of green forests and grasses has not been high, but every time the country is in danger, it must be the people of the people who will cheer up with their enthusiasm to defend the country. Since the Jingping of the Wu Dynasty, the world has attached great importance to those who practice martial arts. It has been improved, but in fact, whether it is the No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament in the Southwest or the All-for-Heroes Tournament that is about to rise in Jiangning, it is nothing more than a play by those in power for their own reputation. Everyone is in the army."
"Although the old man is a literati, he was quite touched after Xu Yuanzong's incident. When three to five hundred or three to five thousand people gather together and fight for the first fame, the old man is reluctant to do so. , The old man wants to make something that truly belongs to you all for the world martial artist."
In the hall, the old man looked at the heroes and paused slightly: "As everyone knows today, our northern expedition is imminent, and the goal is the old Beijing Bianliang. If this battle has no results, of course everything will not be mentioned, but if it can really Restoring Bianliang will be a waste of time in the future. I will support you in making the largest martial arts event in Bianliang."
"This martial arts club does not allow you to perform and then enter the army, but hopes to gather heroes from all over the world, communicate, communicate, and progress with each other. Just like you, you can improve each other, and you no longer have too many views of each other. Let your skills be truly used to fight against the Jinren and defeat those who are apostate, so that all the martial artists in the world can be transformed into a national warrior without losing the original intention of martial arts."
"Therefore, when you go to Jiangning, you are not going to assassinate someone for a brave man, nor are you simply going to the ring to fight fiercely. The scholars should have the actions of the scholars. What you are going to do is a long-term plan, to discuss and perform. Out of your own mind, you can invite heroes who are also knowledgeable and insightful to come over and participate in the grand event. Of course, there are those who are willing to join the army in the fair party, and they will not be stopped..."
"As for the name of this martial arts club, the old man also thought about it. I wanted to call it the Central Plains Martial Arts Club, but it is still narrow when I think about it. The Huaxia Martial Arts Club is also not a success, and it reminds people of the Southwest. Later, I got a name and called it-Zhonghua Martial arts club!"
"... More things will be handled by Zhong Ming and you."
Dai Meng smiled narrowly, and finished speaking.
The afternoon sun is still bright. Everyone in the room promised one after another, and their hearts were already tumbling.
In the past few years, when the Wu Dynasty was prosperous, there was a Yuquan Gym in the capital, but even Zhou Tong, the so-called number one in the world, was actually not much valued by those in power. When the Wu Dynasty declined, on the one hand, there was huge external pressure, and on the other hand, Zhuji's martial arts novels were spread everywhere. The status of martial artists has improved, but overall they still appear embarrassing.
Of course, the biggest reason for this is that martial arts practitioners cherish themselves, because they can be bandits and cannot become an army. After the fall of the Central Plains, the large-scale migration of the population led to a wave of so-called north-south transmission. Back then, some people from the rivers and lakes in Lin'an also gathered to get a few new sects, but there were no real big figures on the platform for this kind of thing. In the final analysis, it is still not possible to fight on the battlefield. Even as a scout, according to the characters of these warriors, they all seem to be of mixed good and bad. But the ones that are really easy to use can be paid into the army. Why let them become martial arts?
Nvzhen went south for the fourth time and forced the world to fall apart. When Dai Mengwei appeared, he used his own fame and means to gather these people from the Green Forest. Under the persecution of righteousness and reality, these people also put aside some face and old customs, and began to abide by the rules, listen to orders, and talk about cooperation. As a result, their strength has increased, but in fact, of course, their personality is also suppressed. Something.
For the sake of righteousness, to become Dai Mengwei's eagle dog, and even go to justice like Xu Yuanzong, some people are willing to do it. But at the same time, who doesn't want real fame and fortune? The Southwest China Army said it was going to be the world's No. 1 martial arts competition. If it really went to the last choice, isn't it going to be a soldier? This is also true in Jiangning. So they didn't want to go.
But if the "Chinese Wushu Association" mentioned by Dai Gong was established, with the platform and endorsement of someone like him, wouldn't this Wushu Association be equivalent to the Yuquan Gym where the martial artist is valued? It is Zhou Tong's resurrection, I am afraid that they will all feel envious, and they, as the advocates of this matter, may even leave their names in the book in the future.
Thinking about it this way, the hearts of those who can see the prospect are already hot...
The same afternoon.
Lao Ba, Jin Chenghu, and others with fierce scars on their faces confronted the swordsman who rescued them last night in an old house in the south of the city.
The swordsman named You Hongzhuo told them his own judgment: Dai Mengwei is not an incompetent person, and he has rules for the dominance of the Green Forest people under him, and is not a complete mob. And beside him, at least in the confidant circle, there are some people who can do things, and the guards around him are also arranged in an orderly manner, and they are by no means ideal targets for assassination.
"...Moreover, Old Dog Dai has done a lot of bad things, but it is covered up on the surface... If you kill Dai now, it will only help him become famous."
After exploring Dai Mengwei’s site for several months, You Hongzhuo learned a lot of inside information, and he also knew that the old man, Jin Chenghu and others had been the knights framed by Dai Mengwei, so he explained these things one by one, and they will also be obtained from the Huaxia Army. Part of the thoughts came out, but when I heard the Huaxia Army, the old man was furious.
"...You saved my bachelor, you can't be called a bad person. But when it comes to the Huaxia Army, it's not a good thing either—"
"... In the anti-golden era, the population was righteous, and I was also for the righteousness, and all my brothers and sisters were caught up! Dai Mengwei was embarrassed, and the whole group of us was caught by him. I don’t share the heavens. But I will always remember that when the Huaxia Army defeated the Jurchen West Route Army in Hanzhong, he could kill Dai Mengwei as long as he did it, but Ning Yi was so high-sounding that he just refused to do it—"
"...Others said that his husband killed the emperor in anger, but in my opinion, Mr. Ning, he is also a scumbag"
"...For more than a year, Dai Mengwei has been here. You don't know how many brothers I have killed. But how many people here he killed! How polite! You know this brother. . You let me bear it, what about these dead and dying people—"
"...My bachelor doesn't know what's going on, I don't know what Mr. Ning's big reason is. I only know that I want to save people. To kill Dai Mengwei is to save people—"
"...I don't want to wait for Mr. Ning to come to save people. When he comes, how many people who shouldn't die are already dead... These big people above don't have a good thing, because he and us little people are never the same— —"
You Hongzhuo tilted his head to look at the scar-faced man who was roaring and drooling at the table in front.
"I'm not saying that Dai Mengwei should die, but what if you really can't kill him?"
"Back then, Zhou Yingxiong was able to kill Nianhan? What I did in the past was to collect money to kill people. I didn’t know that my brothers and sisters around me were killed by Dai Mengwei. Only then did I miss a few times, but as long as he is alive, I'm going to kill him—"
In the room of the old house, You Hongzhuo looked at this hysterical man, his face was ugly, his face was scarred and hideous, his clothes were tattered, and his hair was sparse. When it came to Dai Mengwei and Hua Xia Jun, his eyes were bloodshot... and finally sighed. Sighed.
Jin Chenghu on the side sent him out: "Brothers are from the Huaxia Army?"
"I have studied skills with the people of the Huaxia Army, admired and admired them, but did not join the army. Speaking of which, what he thought in his heart, I was confused for a time..." You Hongzhuo looked back, "But he will kill you... …"
"He only does this occasionally, and he can't restrain it." Jin Chenghu said, "In the past year, Dai Mengwei chased us closely. During a fight, he was given a stab in the head in order to save brother. Although luckily not dead, but Speaking of Dai Mengwei and the Huaxia Army, it is difficult to control. When it comes to making arrangements for the assassination, he can actually be calm, but the people around Dai Mengwei are getting more and more difficult to deal with..."
Speaking of this, he paused: "Brothers are strong in swordsmanship and know the evil things that Dai Mengwei has done. Why don't you help me wait, kill Dai Mengwei and then hurry up?"
"...Difficult and not necessarily beneficial."
"...Whose benefit? Some people will die today, some people will die tomorrow, Dai Mengwei killed them. What about their benefits?"
You Hongzhuo looked at Jin Chenghu in front of him. This person should have had a fierce look in the past, but now he only has a thin face covered with dust and scars. He had some answers at this time, but he opened his mouth and finally said nothing.
Jin Chenghu has already arched his hand and laughed: "No matter what, I thank Xiongtai for today's kindness, and if I can see you again in the future, I will repay him."
You Hongzhuo nodded and left the courtyard.
That night, he thought of the scene when he first entered the rivers and lakes on the nearby roof. At that time, he experienced the betrayal of his fourth brother, Kuang Wenbai, and saw that the elder brother, who was a hero, was actually collecting money for Wang Juyun’s troubled teacher. He also experienced the filth of the Great Guangming Sect. Until the prestigious Huaxia Army was deployed in Jin. The Tiger King’s regime was overthrown and in fact brought about a wave of chaos. He didn’t know who was a good person, and in the end he chose to walk alone and guard his heart.
Now that he has more knowledge, he can say that it is best for most people to let the Huaxia Army handle it, but what about the old eight and Jin Chenghu among them? The "goodness" of the Huaxia Army really meant nothing to them.
In the world, only incompleteness is the true meaning.

That night, You Hongzhuo sat on the roof for half the night. The next day, after a little change, he left Ankang City and headed east by land, embarking on a journey to Jiangning.
He left Jindi last year, only intending to get to know him in the southwest before returning. Who knew he was appreciated by the great master of the Huaxia Army, and after verifying his identity in Jindi, he was arranged to work as a training partner within the Huaxia Army for several months. , Martial arts greatly increased. When the training was completed, he left the southwest and went to the Dai Mengwei site to inquire about the news for several months, which can be regarded as an act of repaying kindness.
At this time, the matter was drawing to a close, and then Jiang Ning's Heroes' Conference came out. He had no desire for the arena competition, but when he heard that Lin Zongwu and his disciples would participate, he was finally moved-a few years ago, he had seen the great bright teaching fat monk when he was seriously injured. Once, at that time, he only felt that the martial arts of the world's first man was unfathomable. But by now, he has been trained under Shi Jin, Lu Hongti and other masters, and has undergone half a year of iron-blooded training in the Huaxia Army. He has become enthusiastic about the feeling of seeing the best in the world again.
At the same time, the fairness party opened its doors this time to welcome guests. What will happen in Jiangning? As a member of the Jin region, it is necessary for him to have some experience in the past. When you see the situation clearly in Jiangning, you can go back to see the female counterpart, Shi Jin and others. Just like your own exploration on the Dai Mengwei site, these news are always useful.
...
Ning Ji stayed in Ankang City for two more days. During this period, he secretly observed the defense situation of some suspicious places in the west of the city. The final conclusion was actually similar to You Hongzhuo.
It is very difficult to assassinate Dai Mengwei.
On the other hand, there is no evidence of Dai Mengwei's evil in his hand for the time being, and it seems irrational to have to kill the old man at such a big risk.
In the end, he could only give up.
On June 23rd, he waited for a merchant ship heading east with the Confucian Five, Wang Xiu and his daughter and descended down the Han River...
...
A few more days passed.
Lu Zhongming and others set off from Ankang and embarked on a journey to Jiangning. At this time, they have already compiled a series of plans for the "Chinese Wushu Association", and they are already in the process of searching and perfecting the information of many great tycoons.
He even carried a few letters from Dai Mengwei. For great masters such as Lin Zongwu, they would try to lobby and invite each other to Bianliang as the first president of the Chinese Wushu Association.
...
Ding Songnan, who was preparing for the battle, sent a team to Jiangning shortly after returning. At this moment, Zou Xu, who had gone to Jindi, had already started to cross the Yellow River south with some military resources.
Xue Guangcheng, who was in Jindi, once saw Zou Xu, and then he made endless protests and inquiries about Xingshi towards the female prime minister's mansion. Lou Shuwan was unambiguous, and scolded Xue Guangcheng uncompromisingly, and even hit him with an inkstone. Although Lou Shuwan said that "Xue Guangcheng and Hou Wu are arrogant and arrogant", in fact, when Hou Wu came to pull the side, she still violently scolded both of them and ran away.
"Only women and villains are difficult to raise--"
"The shrew—the shrew—"
Xue Guangcheng's roar can be heard in almost half of the city.
Lou Shuwan turned his head and complained to Zou Xu and raised the price. Zou Xu smiled bitterly and was slaughtered. He said "Mr. Ning likes the most...no, I admire you the most" and other happy things. They get along well. Quite harmonious. So when Zou Xu left, Lou Shuwan waved his hand and smiled very softly: "Remember to win."
"Yes! You must not be ashamed of Aunt Lou!" Zou Xu promised.
After Zou Xu left, Lou Shuwan divided 10% of the profits to the Chinese army here. Because of the lack of points, UU read www.uukanshu.com and suspected that Jindi had cheated on the books, and the two sides had another blow.
Everyone in the world has their own choices.
In early July, autumn has arrived.
On this day, before Jianmen Pass, there were still many people entering the pass.
A man with a thin body and slightly sunken cheeks, wearing a standard uniform like those of others, is walking slowly in the line. He stared at his eyes and looked around, his eyes seemed to contain infinite curiosity. When he passed the gate of the pass, he looked up at the high gate like a child and made a "Wow..." sound.
At the city gate registration office, he took a pen to write his name with difficulty. The veteran on duty could see the inconvenience on his hand: the flesh and a few nails on the tips of his ten fingers were already twisted. This is the trace of the fingers after they were tortured and pulled out.
Since he was followed by two soldiers in plain clothes, the veteran did not make too many questions, but saluted him.
He walked into the mountain, his speed was a bit slow, because after entering the mountain, he could often see the stone steles on the side of the road. The steles recorded either the battle with the Jurchens or the names of the sacrificed martyrs in a certain area. Every time he walked, he had to stop and take a look. He even wanted to reach out to touch the words on the stele, and then he was stopped by the red armband on duty next to him.
"Oh, oh, sorry, sorry..."
He quickly apologized, but because he looked thin and pure and obedient, he did not continue to scold him for convenience.
In the mountains in July, the leaves turned yellow, and when the wind passed, they made a rustle.
The mountain road is full of people walking, mules and horses walking through, voices of order to maintain order, and voices of abuse. There are so many people, not many people noticed the appearance of this ordinary "returner" in the crowd...
