Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

These experiences brought them not only bursting morale, but most importantly, strong physique!

Within a year, they traveled nearly ten thousand miles on foot, and those who had no potential had long been eliminated.

However, the soldiers summoned by the Kong family were all pale and thin civilians. There was no comparison between the two.

The "Kong Family Army" guarding outside the city could not even organize a decent resistance when facing the charge of the Qin cavalry.

It's not just that their fighting ability is poor, but more importantly, everyone in the Kong family army has their own ulterior motives.

"I heard the sound of horse hooves and shouts of killing. Is it the Qin army rushing over?"

A man who was 1.9 meters tall but as thin as a bamboo pole patted his companion beside him with empty eyes.

The companion was already frightened by the scene before him: "So, so many people! There's no end in sight..."

The skinny man stared with his eyes wide open and stretched out his hand to twist his companion's shoulder.

"So what the hell are you waiting for? Run!"

"Oh, yes, yes, the money is already in hand, run!"

His companions reacted instantly, and then started shouting at the top of their lungs in the crowd.

"Brothers, the wind is strong, hurry up..."

This shout made the "Kong Family Army" disperse immediately along the city wall and towards both sides of the city gate like a river with its sluice opened.

When Gao Yigong saw this scene, he was stunned for a moment.

But then he burst into laughter.

"Grandma's!"

"It seems that the reputation of our Qin Army has spread here a long time ago!"

"Look, these people from Kong Jiazhao ran away before the fight even started..."

Chonglou looked at the burly man in the crowd in silence. There was nothing he could do since this guy was the most eye-catching.

"Look, that guy has to be led by someone even when he runs away. His steps are unsteady and he stumbles when he runs. The more I watch him, the more he looks like a blind man."

He guessed right!

That Ma Gan is a blind man......

I'm afraid even Kong Yinzhi himself didn't expect what kind of people he summoned with real money!

There were three consecutive rounds of arrows fired from the top of the city wall.

Arrows filled the space between the moat and the city gate.

Less than 30% of them can be inserted into the ground!

The vast majority of arrows were scattered on the ground in a mess.

Faced with such defenders, Li Zicheng shook his head with some disdain and turned back to give Niu Jinxing a look.

"Hehehehe, Your Majesty, just watch!"

Niu Jinxing rode out of the line and came to Gao Yigong and others. Across the moat, he looked at the Kong family members on the city wall.

"The Master said!"

"Have friends come from afar!"

"Descendants of the Saint, is this how you entertain your friends nowadays?"

At this time, Kong Yinzhi was angry about the uselessness of the Kong family army. When he heard this ridicule, he immediately shouted loudly.

"presumptuous!"

"How can a bunch of traitors and traitors be qualified to recite the Analects?"

Niu Jinxing smiled and shook his head: "Thief?"

"The Master said: The country bumpkin is the thief of virtue!"

"The inheritance of the twenty-three dynasties has thrown the eternal teacher of the saints behind their backs and built the eternal surrender!"

"You think of yourselves as the descendants of the saint, but you rely on your distorted interpretation of the saint's intentions to put yourself above all other scholars in the world, exploit the people, and exclude those who are different from you!"

"And our Qin army distributes grain to disaster relief, distributes land equally to the people, does not take a single needle or thread from the good families, and does not hide a single grain of rice from the people!"

"Wherever the Qin army passed, everyone cheered and followed them like clouds!"

"I want to ask, compared to the Qin army and the Kong family, who is the thief in this world?"

The meaning of this sentence from the Analects is very straightforward. There are tens of thousands of people inside and outside the city, and although only a few people nearby can hear it, it will spread throughout the world sooner or later!

The term "hypocrite" refers to those people in society who cannot distinguish right from wrong, follow the crowd, do not practice what they preach, are hypocritical and deceive the world, and try to please everyone.

The thief of virtue is the corruptor of morality!

These five short words, together with what Niu Jinxing said afterwards, were like a loud slap in Kong Yinzhi's face!

Do not!

The entire Kong family!

Kong Yinzhi's face had turned purple, and even his breathing had become much heavier.

"it is good!"

"Since you are also a scholar, I will ask you the way of a sage!"

"You Zi said: The purpose of etiquette is harmony. The way of the ancient kings is beautiful. It is used for both small and big things. If there are things that cannot be done, knowing harmony and being harmonious, but not following etiquette, it cannot be done either!"

"My Kong family has repeatedly revised the surrender petition in order to pass on the legacy of the saints and to ensure that Confucianism will not be cut off from the world!"

"What's wrong with that?"

Niu Jinxing put away the smile on his face, pointed at Kong Yinzhi with a whip and shouted at him.

"You are such a person who has forgotten his origins!"

"Do you remember, Confucius once said!"

"To offer sacrifices to a ghost that is not yours is flattery!"

"As a Han citizen and a disciple of the saint, I am not loyal to the king and can only flatter him!"

"The Master teaches us four things: culture, conduct, loyalty, and trustworthiness!"

"To be disloyal to the country is to be disloyal to the country!"

"The Master said: If one speaks faithfully and is sincere and respectful in conduct, he will be able to succeed even in a barbarian country. If one speaks unfaithfully and is not sincere and respectful in conduct, how can he succeed even in his own county? When he stands, he is seen leaning forward; when he is in a chariot, he is seen leaning on the balance; only then can he succeed!"

"You are disloyal to your country and worse than barbarians. How dare you call yourself the descendants of a saint?

"Not listening to the teachings of our ancestors is unfilial!"

"The Master said: 'Today's filial piety is to be able to support others. Even dogs and horses can be supported. If they are not respectful, how can they be distinguished?'"

"You unfilial people are no different from animals!"

All these nonsense made Gao Yigong and others dumbfounded!

Damn it!

This old man is really knowledgeable. Although I don’t understand what he says, he looks very awesome!

The Qin army and the Kong family army around them were all standing there in a daze, having long forgotten what they were doing.

Damn........

So dizzy........

But everyone in the Kong family on the city wall heard it clearly!

Confucianism emphasizes benevolence, wisdom, propriety, righteousness and trustworthiness, and the Ming Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety.

Now that Niu Jinxing is pointing at them and calling them disloyal and unfilial, they can't even find any basis to excuse themselves. This is ridiculous!

Kong Yinzhi gritted his teeth, his face was grim, his breathing had turned into a low roar, and the hot air coming out of his mouth and nose was particularly eye-catching in the cold weather.

It's like the valve of a fire bull is opened...

Chapter 498 People are doing it, but God is watching!

It is obvious that he is the descendant of the Kong family and he is the Yansheng Duke of the present time!

But Kong Yinzhi felt very depressed when others pointed at his nose and scolded him for using his own knowledge!

He really wanted to continue confronting Niu Jinxing using the Analects.

but.........

The matter of the World Repair Association's reduction of the list...

Suddenly his eyes lit up.

"presumptuous!"

"The Master said, 'When serving your parents, you should advise them. If they do not follow your advice, you should still respect them and not disobey them. You should work hard for them but not complain.'"

"The surrender you mentioned was done by my ancestors. As a son, how can I say that it was my ancestors' fault?"

After saying this, Kong Yinzhi couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Damn it!

I am proud of my own cleverness!

Anyway, I have never repaired the table, what can you do to me?

The meaning of this passage in the Analects is that when serving parents, one should give them gentle advice on some of their mistakes. Even if one's opinions are not accepted, one should still be respectful to them and not offend them, and work hard for them without resentment.

Niu Jinxing first said that his Kong family had been compiling a letter of surrender, and then said that Duke Yansheng was unfilial. Then Kong Yinzhi used this sentence to not only directly put the blame on his ancestors, but also emphasized that he was being filial.

I am just being filial. Loyalty or not is my ancestors' business. What does it have to do with the current Kong family?

Niu Jinxing was about to open his mouth to refute when he saw three war horses suddenly appear on the city wall.

The knight on horseback was wearing armor and holding a spear, and it actually looked like the real thing.

Kong Yinzhi was immersed in his own emotion and seemed to be unaware of what was happening behind him.

At this moment, one of the cavalrymen suddenly shouted.

"I advise you to stay next to Mahler!"

The Kong family and others were shocked and quickly turned around to look.

But then three spears stabbed towards Kong Yinzhi at the same time.

"Protect the Lord!"

These three cavalrymen were Zhang San, Wang Ermaizi and Yang Tiedan.

The three guys waited for a long time outside the city, waiting for Kong Yinzhi's order so that they could rush out and surrender to the Qin army. However, no matter how long they waited, no order came down. Instead, two groups of people inside and outside the city started cursing at the streets, citing what Confucius had said.

This is really annoying for them!

So, the anxious Zhang San immediately proposed to take advantage of the quarrel between the two sides to capture Kong Yinzhi as a token of his loyalty.

This is how we have this scene!

The Kong family has always regarded themselves as role models for scholars, and have long forgotten the essence of Confucius' words!

County magistrate Kong Zhenlai and county magistrate Kong Hongyi turned pale with fright and dodged to the sides in panic.

The chief clerk Kong Yinchun could not bear it any more. He collapsed to the ground with his buttocks. Then, a trickle of water came from nowhere and wet the bricks of the city.

Only Kong Yinzhi's son-in-law Liu Zhongdi's reaction was acceptable. Seeing the three spears getting closer and closer, he took the lead, drew out his long sword with a swish, chopped at one of the spears, and shouted loudly to the surrounding defenders.

"What are you doing standing still!"

"Catch these traitors and I'll give you a hundred taels of silver!"

The defenders finally reacted and rushed over to rescue Kong Yinzhi.

But the space on the city wall is not large, and the advantage of having more people cannot be brought into play in this situation.

Even though Liu Zhongdi took action at the first moment, he still failed to save his father-in-law!

The spear in Wang Ermaizi's hand was so long that it pierced Kong Yinzhi's shoulder like a snake's tongue!
