Humane Yongchang

Chapter 455

"...This is not a fuel-efficient lamp!"

Chen Sheng reminded himself that as soon as his uncle's words fell, an old voice with a hint of helplessness came in from outside the hall: "Little friend, slandering an elder behind his back is not a gentleman's action."

Chen Ao frowned, and quickly got up and saluted with fists in his hands, "The last general, Chen Ao, pay homage to Mou Sheng!"

A bony old man dressed in neat but rough Gebu linen clothes and a multicolored mask walked slowly into the hall with a deer head stick in his hand.

Chen Sheng didn't move at all, calmly took a sip of the syrup in front of him, and replied flatly: "In terms of gentleman, is it more contemptible for the old gentleman to sneak into other people's homes and eavesdrop on other uncles and nephews at a young age? "

He was not surprised that Guiguzi would find out that he had entered the northern border secretly. He had the aura of a king, and as long as he was in a place where human destiny favored him, he would be accompanied by a canopy of purple aura. Ordinary people could not see his canopy of purple aura, but In the eyes of giants in Guiguzi's realm, it is as conspicuous as a mountain fire in the dark night.

But it's not unexpected, Guiguzi's behavior of coming here uninvited and eavesdropping on his secret conversation with his uncle still makes him very unhappy!

Guiguzi stagnated when he entered the door, and stood there for a few breaths without taking the next step, as if he was a little embarrassed by Chen Sheng, and also as if he was confused by Chen Sheng's tough attitude towards him.

"This man, his legs and feet are too neat, and it may not be a good thing at all. If he is not careful, he will lose his manners..."

He smiled lightly and said it in the low and gentle tone unique to the old man, then raised his deer head staff and raised his hand to Chen Ao who was headed up: "The old man is in a hurry. He came here uninvited without notification. I hope General Chen will forgive him."

Chen Ao raised his hand to return the salute, but he couldn't respond. Instead, he looked at Chen Sheng's face first, saw Chen Sheng drinking water leisurely with his eyelids downcast, and then replied: "It's the end of the sage."

He is Uncle Chen Sheng, and here he is at his home, Chen Sheng still came here in private, so he was naturally the leader when he was seated, the uncle and nephew stayed at home and talked about their family's shortcomings, so there was no need to pay too much attention.

But if there are outsiders, it will be completely different.

After the ceremony was over, Chen Ao glanced at Chen Sheng again from the corner of his eye, and saw that his face was still expressionless, then he went to the hall and made a "please" gesture to Chen Sheng opposite: "There is no space for honored guests in a humble room. Dislike it, please sit down, rest your feet, and drink a bowl of syrup cooked by Jing's wife."

If it weren't for Chen Sheng, a big man like Guiguzi would really be an honored guest that he couldn't even ask for.

Guiguzi also took a look at Chen Sheng, and seeing that he was not showing any anger, he raised his hands and said, "I will stick to my wish, I dare not ask for my ear."

Chen Ao personally fetched a mat to invite Guiguzi to sit down, and then offered him syrup and food.

Chen Sheng ate the food cooked by his auntie like no one else around, until Chen Ao finished his busy work and returned to the hall to sit down again, he said: "I don't know why the old man came here, but no matter what, he has made his own past. Only then will there be a basis for continuing the discussion, otherwise it will become a situation of each other having ghosts, sharing different dreams... What does the old man think?"

Guiguzi was robbed by his side, and was once again speechless.

Even if his wisdom is as deep as the ocean, and he can count all the strategies, facing Chen Sheng, who not only does not play cards according to common sense, but is also afraid to turn the unspoken rules on the table to beat drums and discuss, he still has a tiger biting a hedgehog—— There is no way to speak.

Then... chickens can't be put in a bamboo basket, it's been like this since ancient times!
In the past, no matter who was in power or who was in power, they tacitly acquiesced to the rules of the game!
Why is it that you have so many things to do, and your relatives will not recognize you as soon as you sit down?

Guiguzi was drinking water tactically, thinking about how to deal with it. Today's opportunity is too rare. If you miss this village, you may never have this shop again!

He was contemplating this, but he stared at Chen Ao in the hall dumbfounded... He has learned a lot, and his eldest nephew is really brave, he really dares to go up if he has something to do!
This is a seeker!
The dynasties will change, but the saints will be handed down forever!

Chen Sheng continued to eat and drink with a flat attitude, as if he didn't realize that he was a saint at all!
But in fact, Chen Sheng knew exactly what he was doing...

Now, he can barely be regarded as one of the few people standing at the top of Kyushu. Many rules of the game no longer need to be told by others.

For example, the many sub-sages of humanity active in Kyushu, including the only saint of humanity in the world, the threat to him is far less than that of a peak master of the great master level!

Because the peak powerhouses at the Grand Master level can still fight to destroy their path and perish with Chen Sheng... Of course, the premise is that they can pull Chen Sheng.

But Guiguzi, Zhuang Zhou and the others, the sub-sages of the human way, their own paths have long been like vines, and they are one body with the towering tree of the human way.

Just like Tianzi Qi, it represents the most beloved son of the Emperor of Heaven.

Chen Sheng's imperial aura means that he is the most beloved son of humanity!

Just imagine, when the subordinate wants to murder the boss's favorite son...

Not to mention success, even thinking about it like this will definitely lead to a thunderous backlash from humanity!

Don't say that Guiguzi can't stand it, even the old Confucius at this stage is enough!

On the other hand, Chen Sheng, as Humanity's most beloved son, if he kills a Humanity sub-sage of Guiguzi's level, at most he will be scolded by Humanity's father. He probably won't even be willing to confine him. After all, he is still pointing him to manage such a big Kyushu... Of course, the premise is that Chen Sheng can beat Guiguzi!
Chen Sheng definitely can't beat Guiguzi now, but it's coming soon...

Moreover, if Chen Sheng couldn't do anything to Guiguzi, how could he not be able to do anything to those Guigumen?

The Guigu lineage is not a prominent school like Taoism, Confucianism and Mohism. The disciples are all over Kyushu, and their descendants are endless.

With the current momentum of the big man, if he wants to move the Guigu lineage, he only needs to press a king order from Chen Sheng, and the vitality of the Guigu lineage will be severely damaged immediately, and within ten years, the inheritance of the Guigu lineage will be established Kyushu is extinct.

The position of a sage is proved by words, meritorious deeds, and virtues.

What does that mean?

That is, your words, contributions, and virtues must not only be called saints in the present, but also be able to be passed down, and you can also be called saints in the future, so that you will not be forgotten by the world because of the changing times. , to live forever and be truly immortal!

In short, the holy position is a position that transcends the long river of time. It is the past, the present, and the future. The trinity is indispensable!

The present and the future are easy to understand, the past?

It should be noted that the three stages of proving the holy are step by step. You must first have your own words and thoughts, and then practice your words and thoughts, so as to make your own merits and achievements, and let the world know you, Know you, remember you.

The last step is to extract the core propositions that are consistent with words and deeds from the process of practicing thoughts, spread them out, and when countless people can be regarded as wise words and guiding lights no matter in the present or in the future, you Only then can one be holy...the sub-sage is also a saint.

Such a arduous and long-distance process of seeking Tao will take a very long time, no matter which family or line of practitioners they are, no matter how talented they are or how prosperous their family background is.

The sages of Tianzong, such as Confucius, were finally certified as Confucian sages after a long period of studying, traveling, and giving lectures.

So standing on the day of sanctification is indeed the past, the present, and the future, the trinity.

Lu Shu, Chen Sheng's great disciple who founded the mountain, is currently at the stage of stepping into the threshold of Lide with one foot. Maybe he will have an epiphany during his work at some point, and realize something similar to "the day of hoeing the grain at noon, the sweat dripping down the soil, Who would have thought that every grain of Chinese food on a plate is hard work”, and the truth is instantly sanctified.

It may sound ironic, even a three-year-old child who has never read a book knows the truth that "people are iron, rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry." For thousands of years, there has not been a farmer's Christmas student.

As for farmers, the largest professional group in Kyushu, if they worship ancestors, apart from Shennong, who can be traced back to the chief priest in ancient times, they can't even find an accompanying priest.

Oh, that's right, a group of mud-legged, country bumpkins who plan food in the land, who can't even eat enough to eat, how can they be qualified to worship their ancestors...

Back to the point.

Since the saint is the past, present, and future, the existence of the Trinity.

Then, when Chen Sheng holds the power to cut off a certain saint's future, he automatically has the power to pull a certain saint down from the throne!

Of course, this must be a double-edged sword. A saint is not a rigid robot. It is impossible for anyone to watch Chen Sheng cut off his Dao foundation and pull himself down from the holy throne.

If Chen Sheng really dared to play such a big job, he would definitely provoke the tragic revenge of the other party by any means.

But a double-edged sword is also a sword!
Not having a sword in hand and having a sword without using it are completely different things.

This is the confidence for Chen Sheng to have an equal dialogue with Guiguzi.

……

When Chen Sheng was in northern Xinjiang and Guiguzi were conducting equal, friendly, and harmonious negotiations on a series of matters such as the ownership of Guigu's lineage and the entry of the Youzhou Army into Han.

Li Xin and Chen Dao, who were studying the map of Bingzhou in Hengshan County, also just received the report from the scouts: Then Han Xin of Bingzhou, commanding the army to kill the starry night, came over!

"Your Majesty is really good at predicting things like a god!"

Li Xin couldn't suppress the fanatical admiration in his heart, and handed the scout secret letter in his hand to Chen Dao on the opposite side: "Then Han Xin, you really came here today!"

It is not surprising that Han Xin will move eastward.

After all, apart from the option of retreating into Yongzhou, Han Xin only had the option of going east... He couldn't just sit back and watch the red-clothed army and the Huben army encircle the southeast, right?Or go south to find the 30 red-clothed army, plus 24 Pingxi army to send heads?Or withdraw from the Kyushu from Yanmen Pass, and send minced meat to the Quanrong people?
It is clear that going east is Han Xin's only way out!
After all, persimmons are soft!

But even the time of Han Xin's eastward advance can be calculated to the exact point...

This is tantamount to playing with Han Xin in the palm of his hand!

How could Li Xin not be so impressed?
In the previous battle of Julu, he was completely suppressed by Han Xin!
He was suppressed by Han Xin in all directions, and Han Xin was suppressed by the king in all directions.

Doesn't this mean that the king can press him to the ground and rub him to death with one hand?

Chen Dao looked at the scout secret letter in his hand without being surprised, and said: "The soldiers are divided into three groups...the ones who come are not good!"

Li Xin sneered disdainfully: "We are the ones who came!"

Chen Dao put away the secret letter noncommittally, and said seriously: "How are you going to fight this battle?"

Li Xin replied without hesitation: "Divide the troops!"

"With [-] soldiers and horses, relying on the terrain, you will block the attack step by step, fighting and retreating, preventing it from rushing into the North China Plain while preserving your strength."

"I took the remaining [-] soldiers and horses and rushed to the rear of the enemy army, cutting off their retreat first, and then we two brothers echoed each other, and had a good time playing with this beast."

The whole story of the previous battle of Julu, after the war, he had many replays with Chen Dao.

The final conclusion is that since he and Chen Dao entered Jizhou with 15 tiger troops, they have already fallen into Han Xin's calculations.

Including the subsequent breach of HD, the division of troops into the second encirclement of Zhangshui, it was all Han Xin's intentional show of weakness to kill the main force of his Huben army in one fell swoop...

As arrogant as Li Xin, such a result is even more unacceptable to him than killing him!

This is simply cutting off Li Xin's head and stuffing it into the latrine!
If faced with such an excellent opportunity to regain face, how could he give up?
"Divided troops?"

Chen Dao hesitated, and persuaded in a low voice: "I'm afraid Han Xin is going to risk his life, and it is really not wise to divide the troops!"

Li Xin wanted to get his face back, so why didn't he want to?

But the previous battle of the giant deer... To be honest, it did leave a certain psychological shadow on him!

Now when facing Han Xin, he instinctively wanted to secure his hand first.

In addition, their military strength is not superior to that of Han Xin...

"This moment, that moment!"

Li Xin said solemnly: "At the Battle of Julu, Han Xin was on the defensive, and you and my brother were on the offensive. He waited for work and didn't need to rush to defeat the enemy, but we had to consider the consumption of food and grass, which messed up the situation. , let this beast take advantage of it!"

"Now, the offense and defense are transformed!"

"Han Xin is in a hurry to rush into the North China Plain to save his life, but we only need to block him in Bingzhou, and we can win a big victory!"

"It's him who is messing around, and it's us who are breaking the enemy with the camera!"

"If it's such a good opportunity, you and my brother let it go, and I'm afraid I won't be able to wash the shame of the giant deer again in this life!"

Chen Dao lowered his head and stared at the map of Bingzhou. After a long silence, he said, "Then let's fight!"

He raised his head to look at Li Xin, his eyes gleamed with determination, and said with a light smile, "When the king went north, I was still thinking why he had calculated that Han Xin would definitely send his troops to the east while he was going north to persuade Xiang Yu to surrender. But he still insists on going north first, without making any arrangements... Now that I think about it, this should be the opportunity that the king left for you and me to avenge our shame!"

"It's not just you and me!"

Li Xin shook his head and walked up to the commander's tent, grabbed the saber from the weapon rack and hung it on his waist: "This is also an opportunity for our Huben Army to take revenge. Our Huben Army has left more than 5 brothers in Julu!"

Chen Dao froze for a moment, his heart suddenly opened.

No wonder they only brought Master Longxiang to the north...
