Chapter 126 Kong Zheng is a person who knows how to praise

After a period of expansion, the intelligence unit of the Shengjie Army has [-] action groups.

Su Yin is still the commander-in-chief, Su Changsheng is the deputy commander-in-chief, and the twelve action team leaders below each have their own areas of responsibility, and will gather news to the headquarters at regular intervals.

Su Yin will send someone to inform Su Yonglin about the important news, so as to gain time and prepare as soon as possible.

The information intercepted this time is such important information.

"Captain, you must read this letter."

Yang Liuzhen, where the intelligence troops were secretly stationed, Liu Xinghan, the leader of the sixth action group, hurried over and handed a secret letter he intercepted to Su Yin.

Su Yin took the secret letter, unfolded it and looked at it, her brows gradually furrowed.

"Xinghan, you have done a great job."

"I also feel that this is no small matter."

Liu Xinghan opened his mouth and said, "In general, a maximum of two or three people will accompany the official document, and this secret letter has five people in charge of urgent delivery. I think it must be unusual, so I took a little risk and cut it off."

Su Yin immediately stood up.

"You did the right thing. This matter is no trivial matter. Immediately hand over this letter to Alang. Once the battle is won, the situation will change. Please prepare early."

"Here!"

Liu Xinghan left Yangliu Town with the secret letter and moved quickly in the direction of Tai'an Prefecture.

Later, Chen Jiliang, the leader of the third action group, also made a contribution.

Chen Jiliang intercepted the emergency military text sent to Shuhu Siji by Dongping Prefecture, and stopped the emergency military text informing Shuhu Siji that Jiagu Asu had been wiped out. Everything looks as if it never happened.

Two routes were successfully intercepted, but the third route was unsuccessful, and the military document went to Daming Mansion smoothly.

On July [-], when the army of Shuhu Siji was setting up camp at the foot of Nun Mountain near Qufu County and making some adjustments, Tu Shanjing, who was in Daming Prefecture and was in the process of dispatching troops, received an urgent request from Yelu Chenghui. Jun Wen, at a glance, fainted on the spot.

After the emergency rescue of his subordinates, he faintly woke up. After waking up, he did nothing, and immediately rushed to Dongping Mansion.

On the same day, the pathfinders of the Jin Army and the Pathfinders of the Restoration Army had a small-scale encounter at the junction of Yanzhou and Yizhou. The Pathfinder cavalry of the Restoration Army was routed by the pathfinder cavalry of the Jin Army, losing more than a dozen people, and the remaining two. The three escaped with injuries.

The Golden Army cavalry chased for a while but did not dare to go further, fearing that they would be surrounded, they returned to their lives.

So on the evening of July [-], both the Jin Army and the Restoration Army knew that the other party was sending out sentries to spy on each other's military situation.

Shuhu Siji asked carefully about the details of the battle between the cavalry on both sides, and learned that the cavalry of the Restoration Army was relatively poor in riding, their bodies were not stable, and they were not proficient in using horse-attacking techniques, and cavalry tactics were not proficient, so they were defeated.

This is in line with Shuhu Siji's consistent impression of the Restoration Army, which makes Shuhusiji a little relieved, judging that the combat effectiveness of the Restoration Army is not very good, and it is not much better than the rabble.

So Shu Hu Siji ordered the army to rectify a little and continue to advance, entering the territory of Yizhou, preparing to kill and ruthlessly clean up the rebels in Yizhou.

Zhu Hu Siji marched all the way, and he did not condone the troops looting in local areas. Many innocent villages in Dongping Prefecture were robbed, their property was plundered, and many people were killed. The local people rushed to escape to escape. One life.

After entering Yanzhou, the Jin army also looted on different scales. Before the battle was fought, the soldiers did their best to earn a lot of money.

Only when he arrived in Qufu County did he strictly control the army not to act recklessly, and those who violated the order would be executed, simply and clearly.

As a result, no soldiers dared to act recklessly in Qufu County, and all of them honestly shrugged, and Qufu was spared the disaster.

the reason is simple.

After the sage of Confucius, Kong Zheng, the contemporary sage of the northern sect of the Kong family, lived here. Like a big Buddha, it shocked everyone to think that they should not have.

Since the Jin army marched south to occupy the Central Plains, the Confucian lineage in Qufu has been split into the north and the south.

Nanzong followed Song Ting to the south, and established another sect to serve Zhao Guan's family in the south, and to provide political legitimacy to the only surviving son of Emperor Daojun.

Beizong stayed behind in Qufu to provide legitimacy for Jin Ting to sit in the Central Plains and open imperial examinations. First, he obeyed the puppet Qi and then served Jin Ting.

A proper bet on both ends, traditional arts.

Because it is related to the legitimacy of Jin Ting's rule of the Central Plains, and it is also necessary to win over Han people and doctors to serve Jin Ting, Jin Ting treats Kong's family more favorably than the Northern Song Dynasty treats Kong's family.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, the Confucius family obtained a large amount of land to worship Confucius, but they still had to pay taxes to the court, which is indispensable.

After Ginting occupied the Central Plains, with a wave of his hand, he exempted Kong from the tax that should be paid, as a preferential treatment for Kong. From then on, all Kong's income was simply "after-tax income".

Confucius' name is too loud, and two Confucian clans, one in the south and one in the north, can provide legitimacy to their regime.

Scholars all over the world are so happy that they don't have to worry about sayings like forgetting their ancestors. Even if someone said that, they could still point to the Confucius in Qufu - look, aren't they the same?
Kong's inheritance is not only a golden signboard, but also a big pot.

If the Confucius family wants to inherit for thousands of years, they must obediently carry the pot and provide the final explanation for the behavior of scholars all over the world in pursuit of fame and fortune.

When the situation changes, when someone needs to do shameless things, Kong should take the lead in doing it.

The bigger the name, the bigger the pot and the bigger the crime.

In the end, all kinds of sins were poured out on Confucius and even Old Master Confucius, but the scholars all over the world still acted recklessly and enjoyed the glory and wealth.

This is the Confucian family, the Confucian family of Confucianism, who represents the highest voice and final interpretation power in feudal society.

Regarding legitimacy, the Jin people did not dare to mess around. Qufu County was equivalent to Kong’s private land. Before the army, Shuhu Siji sent a letter to Kong Zheng to ask him for advice. If Kong Zheng was not happy, he would return it. It's really difficult.

Fortunately, Kong Zheng is a person who knows how to lift up. He still understands the rude lifts of Zhu Hu and Si Ji, so he proposes that the army can cross the border, but they cannot enter the county, nor can they destroy buildings, and cannot loot wantonly. his request.

It would be better to praise Fang Shi. Shu Hu Siji agreed to these requests, asking the army to restrain its behavior, station troops at a distance from the county seat, and investigate the situation to prepare for the advance.

To say that the Kong family has been able to pass down to this day does indeed have its own way of survival.

After the army was stationed, Kong Zheng brought his family and pushed vehicles of various sizes to the barracks to work for the army, which made Shu Hu Siji very happy.

What Kong Zheng brought was nothing more than some wine, meat, cloth, and a "meeting ceremony" for senior officers.

Although the things are not much compared to the army of [-], he has never thought of sharing these things equally for the army, so it naturally appears to be a lot.

With this joy, before the war, Shuhu Siji also had a rare leisurely feeling and entertained Kong Zheng in the barracks.

Kong Zheng has the appearance of a gentle and traditional scholar-bureaucrat. He speaks in a soft-spoken manner, and is very polite. He has the title of a duke on his body, so he is still quite polite to him.

Having been stationed in Shandong for more than ten years, Shuhu Siji has not only become corrupt, but also has some superficial understanding of Chinese literature and has read a little bit. , to be a "cultural man".

So he asked Kong Zheng some questions he thought were very deep to show his "love of learning".

Kong Zheng showed a surprised look, gave him an answer, and then praised him for his intelligence, which satisfied his vanity.

Finally, Shu Hu Siji laughed and sent Kong Zheng out of the barracks, ending the short but happy conversation.

He felt very happy, so he decided to wait for the end of the extermination of the thieves, and then come back to Kong Zheng to "please ask questions".

On the other side, Kong Zheng slowly returned to Qufu County with his family's motorcade.

On the way, Kong Zheng's old servant who had been with him for decades was puzzled by Kong Zheng's flattering behavior.

"Alang, that Shuhu Siji is clearly a rude person. Even Chongling's children can answer those questions. Why do you still praise him so much?"
