Infinite Darkness Rise

"Siren's words come out of the most affection, but are criticized by others, why? Siren's words, there are other people's thoughts. One thought is born, and a hundred thoughts are born, which arouses anger in the five internal organs, surging anger, imbalance of yin and yang, so irritable. Also, this is a lack of virtue..."

A young scholar with a long knife hanging from his waist rode a tall horse slowly on the official road, slowly reciting an article he didn't know where he read it.

Since Confucianism has been enlightened for thousands of years, the appearance of this kind of scholar is awe-inspiring, especially when he is riding a tall horse. It also shows that this scholar has no talent and learning, and his family must have some money.

For this reason, if the passers-by on the official road are ladies sitting in sedan chairs, those who are more reserved will lift the curtain of the sedan chair to watch secretly, and those who are not reserved will invite their servants to "ask for advice".

The scholar is not too handsome, but he has a kind of temperament, which is always different from other people, which makes people look at him differently.

There happened to be no one around at the moment, and the scholar was enjoying himself while shaking his head, which was really a bit sour.

This horse is not bad, but the owner has no intention of rushing on the road, so gradually he is left behind by his companions.A carriage gradually caught up, and the driver was an old man, staggering, seeing the scholar, he couldn't help but slow down.

"Scholar, have you ever won any fame?"

The scholar shook his head, and continued to read sourly: "I stretched out my hand to eat, and there was nothing to give me. After eating, I complained to the cook. Why is it so bad? The cook said: You can scold me, please pay for the meal first. Otherwise, you are a chicken thief..."

The old man who was driving the carriage burst out laughing: "The books you read are different from what others read... I listen to others reading, but I don't understand at all. Listening to you reading, it's like talking ?”

The scholar smiled: "I'm bored too, old man, where are you going?"

The old man driving the car said with a smile: "Where am I going? Where else can I go? Isn't this official road going to Liaodong?" He took out a wine gourd, "Scholar, do you want to drink?"

The scholar shook his head, indicating that he would not drink, and he took a sip himself: "Scholar, listen to you, you don't look like a Liaodong person, why are you going to Liaodong?"

"It's nothing, I just want to travel around." The person dressed as a scholar is Xu Le. He doesn't have any fixed goals in this world, but he just looks around while strengthening himself.

At this time, it was the middle and late Ming Dynasty, and it was not convenient to bring people to be seen while walking, and it was more likely to cause disputes in the world.Since Xu Le only wanted to travel, he simply changed his identity to a more convenient one. Once this scholar dressed up, no one in the world would be able to get close to him, and ordinary people would also have a lot of goodwill, which really saved him a lot of trouble.

The old man who was driving shook his head: "It's good to travel, but it's really wrong for you, a powerless scholar, to go to the turbulent Liaodong."

Xu Le was a little curious: "Why not? This Liaodong is also the world of Ming Dynasty, why can't I go?"

The old man suddenly laughed: "Although you are a scholar who has read a lot, you don't know anything about the world. In the past few decades, when has the war in Liaodong stopped? A few years ago, the Mongols caused trouble, and they were put down by General Li Chengliang." .”

"Recently, General Li Chengliang wiped out many Jurchen tribes and built the Six Forts of Kuandian, allowing them to do business with us..."

After Xu Le heard this, he was also slightly surprised, never thinking that he was at this time.At this time, Li Chengliang was still a general. He conquered east and west, and reported ten victories successively. He should be the only famous general who can be compared with Qi Jiguang after the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

He managed Liaodong and Liaoxi, and left behind a large land. When he was alive, this land was as solid as gold.In the first half of his life, he built a system of family generals who were only loyal to himself, and he was the emperor of the land throughout Liaodong.He is ruthless to everyone, ruthless to the enemy, and ruthless to the people. He is able to wipe out innocent people and ethnic minority tribes to kill good people and pretend to be meritorious. Also used to be a talent.

That is, he himself, in the 30 to [-] years of his later years, he lost all his family property and ruined all his achievements.No one knows why his stupor in his later years is so coordinated with Nurhachi's rise.He himself destroyed the last army of the Ming Dynasty that was capable of conscripting and fighting, and destroyed his generals and soldiers, turning them from being good soldiers into moths who love money and cherish life.

Such a guy can be seen, and it must be extremely interesting.

Thinking in his heart, Xu Le chatted with the old man driving the car without saying a word. The two went on the road together and walked slowly along the official road to leave the customs. After a few days, they arrived at a market. , the old man drove the carriage to find someone to do business with, Xu Le swayed unhurriedly, and got on the road by himself.

The Six Forts of Kuandian is where the Han people exchanged with the Liaodong foreign races, so the population is quite large, even the Han people number in the tens of thousands. The merchants who come and go at home are really prosperous places that are rarely seen outside the customs.

When Xu Ledao was in Kuandian Liubao, the army was passing by. Those soldiers hurriedly ran over, sparsely, and there was no queue at all, but this is normal. If it is Qi Jiguang's subordinates, it must be prohibited, the rules strict.Since Li Chengliang's men were able to kill the good and take the credit, it is not surprising that they are full of bandits.

Xu Le stopped his horse and asked someone to inquire, only to find out that the three sons of the leader of the Jurchens seemed to be rebelling, and Li Chengliang was mobilizing an army to suppress the rebellion.

Xu Le was a bit confused when he heard that the leader of the Jurchen tribe actually named himself Wang, and his three sons were Atai and Ahai, all of whom he had never heard of.

Speaking of Jurchen at this moment, shouldn't it be Nurhachi, Huang Taiji?Even if the names of the Ming Dynasty were different, at most it was the difference between "Huang Taiji" and "Huang Taiji". Where did these people come from?

Xu Le really didn't know that there are many tribes of Jurchens at the moment, and the so-called Jianzhou Jurchens are only one of them. When Atai and Ahai rebelled, there was no such general name as Jianzhou Jurchens.

After this group of soldiers with no military power ran past, there was finally a group of neatly dressed soldiers lined up. These soldiers walked slowly, and a general about 50 or [-] years old riding a yellow horse led a group of generals. Walk slowly and slowly, and follow behind.

Xu Le rode a horse among the crowd, looked at them, and listened to the whispers of the people beside him, and only then did he know that this young general was Li Chengliang.

If Li Chengliang was aware of it, he glanced at him and saw that he was sitting on the horse and looking back, he was immediately displeased: "Come here, take this guy's horses into the army, give him armor and weapons, and let him go out with the army!"

Xu Le couldn't help being stunned: "General Li, why are you doing this..."

Before he finished speaking, two generals walked over with whips in their hands, cursing: "You birdman..."

Xu Le shook his head slightly and laughed: "Forget it, I'll go with you once, but I still have to ride this horse for the time being."

A general yelled and came over with a whip: "You are so talented, let's see if I don't kill you..."

Xu Le stretched out his hand, grabbed the general with a whip, and fell to the side.

Seeing this, Li Chengliang was a little surprised: "You scholar, you have some strength! Why don't you be a good general under my command, and have your wealth in the future, what do you think?"

Seeing this scholar's astonishing courage and composure, it was rare for him to love talents, and he began to speak out to attract him.

Xu Le smiled slightly: "Since that's the case, I might as well try."
