The gods began by supporting Guo Jing to become emperor

Chapter 24 Guo Jing's Changes

What surprised them even more was that Guo Jing, who they thought was dull and not good at speaking, could actually say such well-reasoned and well-founded words. What made them even more angry was that they could not find any reason to refute him.

This is just like Guo Jing is doing it in the name of being good for you, he is also doing it in the name of being filial. Can you not let your disciple be filial?

Filial piety is the foundation of being a human being. Even if they have not received much education, they understand this truth, so they can only remain silent.

Among the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan, Nancy Ren and Zhang Asheng remained silent.

When the others were silent, Nan Xiren spoke up, "Jing'er, since you want to go, then go. Just don't regret it later."

"Fourth brother!"

"Fourth brother!"

"Fourth!"

Nan Xiren's words aroused other confusion and doubts. Among the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan, he seemed to be a low-key person, but in fact his martial arts skills were second only to Ke Zhen'e and Zhu Cong, and he often acted as a think tank among them.

He looked at Ke Zhenwu and explained in a steady tone, "Brother, Jing'er is very filial. Let's let him do what he wants. In Jiangnan, men of his age have already started families and established careers. We can't treat him as a child anymore."

The average life expectancy of ancient people was not long, so men got married early and started a family early. Only in this way could they better continue the family line and live better. This was true in all dynasties.

Ke Zhenwu shook his head and still refused. "I don't object to Guo Jing training himself, but the battlefield is too dangerous. Swords and knives are blind there. He has learned our skills, but I don't want him to have any accidents on the battlefield because of us."

"The Guo family has only one son, and he is the only male."

Han Xiaoying walked up to Guo Jing, stared at him with her gentle eyes, and advised, "Jing'er, maybe we put too much pressure on you, so you are so depressed. Listen to Master and don't go to the battlefield. The battlefield is not as simple as you think."

Guo Jing still kept his fists clasped in a respectful manner. He stared into Han Xiaoying's eyes without giving in. "Master, one should not be ungrateful. My mother and I have been deeply indebted to the Khan. If it weren't for the Khan's protection, my mother and I might have died in the fighting among the grassland tribes over the years. I have honed myself not only to fulfill your wish, but also to protect my mother and avenge my father in the future."

"For these, I can endure any hardship. Others can go to the battlefield in their teens, so can I. I, Guo Jing, am no worse than the people of the grasslands!"

Things have come to this point, and the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan have been forced into a corner.

If they don't agree, Guo Jing will be considered an ungrateful person. It would be too inhumane to prevent Guo Jing from avenging his father. Revenge is a natural right and they cannot object.

From this, everyone can see that Guo Jing is determined to go to the battlefield.

At this time, everyone turned their attention to Ke Zhen'e. He was the eldest brother of the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan. Everyone followed his lead and waited for his decision.

Ke Zhenwu was also in great pain, but he was held back by Guo Jing's righteousness. Finally, he sighed and said, "Forget it, Jing'er, since you have made up your mind, then go with it."

Hearing this, Guo Jing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If one were to ask who among the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan had the worst temper, it would definitely be Ke Zhen'e. Han Baoju was at most impulsive and irritable, but Ke Zhen'e was really bad-tempered and stubborn. He had his own set of ideas and was extremely obstinate.

Guo Jing said so much just to shut him up. He also dealt with his mother in advance because of this. Otherwise, if he changed the order, he would definitely not succeed today.

At this moment, he suddenly realized something. Perhaps, this was what the teacher meant when he said that a gentleman can be deceived by his own tactics.

The Seven Freaks of Jiangnan might not be gentlemen, but they used filial piety and gratitude to block the authority of their elders and took back the right to speak. Guo Jing actually felt secretly happy in his heart, and at the same time he was more grateful to Su Ming. What the teacher said was really useful.

...Knowing that Guo Jing was going to the battlefield, Zhebie and the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan intensified their training and teaching of him. Zhebie taught Guo Jing his most advanced archery skills, while Han Baoju and the others gave Guo Jing their own means of saving their lives to increase his survival rate on the battlefield.

Quan Jinfa taught Guo Jing the Huyan family's spear skills to increase his combat effectiveness on the battlefield. Han Baoju raided various tribes on the grassland and finally found a little red horse that could run a thousand miles for Guo Jing in the depths of the desert.

At the beginning, Guo Jing's masters taught him for the sake of pride and for the reputation of the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan, but over the years, they have become true master and apprentice, and there are not so many pride conflicts involved.

Due to the instruction from the eight masters, Guo Jing had less and less time to study with Su Ming. Even so, he was still respectful to Su Ming every time they met.

Through Guo Jing, he knew what these masters were doing. Su Ming did not continue to talk about history, but instead talked about how to lead troops and how to march.

Su Ming himself actually didn't know these things, but he studied history before he traveled through time. Even though he hadn't studied these things specifically, he had learned a lot from them through osmosis.

Apart from anything else, Qi Jiguang's "Jixiao Xinshu" is enough for Guo Jing to learn for a lifetime.

A year passed quickly. At the end of the year, Guo Jing stepped onto the battlefield and became a eagle archer in Temujin's army. For the next six months, Su Ming had no news about Guo Jing.

Li Ping prayed to gods and Buddhas at home every day, asking them to bless Guo Jing. The Seven Freaks of Jiangnan lived peacefully in the tribe. Over the years, they had become accustomed to living on the grassland. Under Temujin's care, they raised a large number of cattle and sheep, and their lives were quite comfortable.

After several months of fighting on the grassland, Temujin once again won a great victory.

Guo Jing returned to the camp safely, reunited with his family, and met with his masters.

In the tent, Guo Jing bowed to Su Ming and said, "Greetings, teacher."

"Get up."

Su Ming put down the book in his hand, moved his gaze to Guo Jing, and a hint of surprise flashed across his face.

This kid has changed so much!

Is this still Guo Jing?

At this time, Guo Jing was carrying a bow and arrow, wearing leather armor, his face became more resolute, his eyes were firm and bright, the childishness and immaturity in his body faded a lot, and he exuded the iron-blooded aura of a soldier.

During the past six months, he must have seen a lot of blood, otherwise his temperament would not have changed so much. Military life is indeed a melting pot.

The better Guo Jing is, the happier Su Ming is. This means that he is one step closer to his goal, and this step is also the right one.

Su Ming had a smile on his face, "Get up, it's good, you have gained a lot this time."

Guo Jing remained motionless and said in a deep voice, "Thank you for your teachings over the years. After going to the battlefield, I finally understood your good intentions." After saying that, Guo Jing knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Su Ming.

　Brothers, please give me more votes.
