Country color

Chapter 525
There is a reason for Chen Ke to hide his face and helplessness. What are these people now? They are scholars from the Imperial College, county and county schools.

Scholars, peasants, businessmen, and the people, according to the strict feudal hierarchy society, scholars are located in the elite class of society.And these hundreds of scholars in front of them are the treasures of Zhao State.

If they make any mistakes, ask Chen Ke to explain.

Although Chen Ke is a group of warriors, he clasped his fists and said politely: "Which one of you is the leader?"

A scholar said with full righteousness: "Facing the country in adversity, doing what is righteous, why do you need to take the lead?"

Answering the wrong question, when Chen Ke's head was as big as a bucket, a scholar wearing a square scarf and a face like a crown jade came forward and said: "This general, I will serve the country with fists, and I will return to you." Please allow the general."

Chen Ke glanced at the other party, but saw that the other party was holding a broad sword, and his expression was peaceful, obviously he had seen the world, not a nerd who didn't listen to things outside the window.

We must know that the scholars of this era have not been harmed by the imperial examination system in the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and they are powerless.

In the Qin and Han dynasties, scholars favored martial arts, and in the Han dynasties, all scholars carried swords. Therefore, it is not surprising that Ban Dingyuan was able to produce a pen-throwing soldier in the Han Dynasty.In the Tang and Song Dynasties, scholars even chanted that a man should match Wu Gou, and take fifty states in Guanshan.

By the time of the Confucian scholars in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, only the six arts of sages remained...

Therefore, Chen Ke saw that the scholars of Guozijian and the county school were all holding swords and guns, and those scholars who were studying in the Guozijian had their own companions, such as trilogy. It is indeed a force.

However, although Chen Ke thought that these scholars could fight, at least better than civilians, they were definitely not opponents of Turkic cavalry.

At that moment Chen Keyan said: "Everyone, you want to serve the country in court, not on the battlefield. This is a place where blood is licked from the edge of a knife. If it is damaged, how will the general explain to King Zhao?"

Scholar Wang Fu smiled slightly when he heard this.

Wang Fu is also a person of origin, his ancestor was Wang Meng, a famous minister who is as famous as Xie An, and he can be regarded as a descendant of a famous family with a well-off family.

Wang Fu entered the county school, and he studied in the county school all the way. Although his studies were mediocre, Wang Fu was also very ambitious. His family background is prominent, he is experienced and decisive in dealing with things, and he dares to stand out in everything. All the scholars vaguely regard him as the head.

Wang Fu lowered his hands and said: "General, there are people here, we really..."

The moment Wang Fu spoke, someone came riding from the south of the city and said to Chen Keyan, "General, Chengnan! Chengnan!"

Chen Ke was taken aback and said, "Have you found the enemy army in the south of the city?"

"No, there are many ships in the south of the city! The big ship is our Zhao country's big ship!"

Hearing this, Chen Ke couldn't help but raised his head, and said in a low voice: "It is definitely the return of the Southern Expedition Army!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone reacted differently. Wang Fu secretly said in his heart, "It's not good. This time, Master Wang, I, Wang Fu, will lose the opportunity to make contributions."

Some of the scholars were happy, while others were disappointed.

The soldiers of Zhao Jun around Chen Ke were jubilant.

Chen Keyan said: "Wait a minute, this matter needs to be confirmed before you can rest assured, immediately send someone to the south of the city to check!"

Soon Chen Ke sent scouts back and said excitedly: "General, it is absolutely true, it is indeed our Zhao army's warship, and now the wharf of the Yongji Canal in the south of the city is full of ships, all of which belong to our Zhao army The soldiers are disembarking, and there are countless people in the dark."

After receiving the confirmed news, the soldiers and the people were all jubilant, and some people even said: "The reinforcements are finally here."

Chen Ke couldn't hide his joy, and asked, "Have you informed them of the battle situation here in Caoshi?"

"Speak to a general who is disembarking, and he said to send soldiers here for reinforcements immediately."

"Youjing is saved." The common people embraced and celebrated.
Chen Ke said to the left and right: "Now the main force of our army's reinforcements has arrived, so there is no need to shrink back. Brothers have cheered me up in front of the king, don't lose my face!"

"promise!"

The left and right soldiers of Zhao Jun suddenly agreed. After they heard that the main force of the Southern Expedition had arrived, their morale was high, and their eyes were full of fighting spirit.

At this time, the sky was getting dark, but the sound of rumbling horseshoes was heard from Chengnan Avenue.

Chen Kexin said that he came as soon as he said it, and it came too fast.

Wang Fu said in the foreword: "General, it's dark now, and the cavalry can't see clearly. It may not be my reinforcements, or it may be the Turkic cavalry that surrounded our army. Please be careful."

Chen Ke glanced at Wang Fu approvingly, thinking that this kid is still cautious.

At that moment, Chen Ke said to the soldiers: "Confirm who is coming, and prepare to fight!"

Now without waiting for Chen Ke's order, the soldiers all went up to the roof together, and the common people got ready. The whole grass market looked pitch black, as if there was no one there.

The sound of horseshoes stopped at the entrance of the grass market. Chen Ke was surprised when he heard that the sound of horseshoes stopped almost at the same time. The Turks can do it.

Fortunately, there were not many cavalry coming, and there were only a few hundred cavalry to hear the sound of horseshoes. As a veteran in the battlefield, Chen Ke was very confident in his judgment.Chen Ke saw Wang Fu's excited face beside him, as if he was eager to try, and thought that this kid is also the master of instability.

"Who?" Zhao Jun asked.

"I was ordered to come to reinforce Dongshi!"

"Which department of Zhao Jun are you from?"

Chen Ke heard that the other party did not answer directly, but instead asked: "Which department do you belong to? Which general's account!"

Chen Ke was suspicious in his heart, why didn't he even report his identity, so he immediately ordered to ignite the fire!

After finishing speaking, a torch was lit on the house in the Caoshi market. Chen Ke went up to the house himself, but in the dark night, hundreds of cavalry were also standing on the opposite side holding torches.

Seeing the scene, Chen Ke almost rolled off the roof.

Wang Fu asked from the side: "Why is it really a Turk in disguise?"

Chen Ke said at the top of his voice, "The last general, Chen Ke, pay homage to King Zhao!"

"Oh, so it's King Zhao!"

Both the soldiers and the common people were surprised.

But seeing Chen Ke rushing to the street in a hurry, Zhao Jun also came down from the roof on all sides, and the common people also flocked to the street.

A loud laugh came from the Zhao army cavalry, and a young man rode out and said, "So it's Chen Ke, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Chen Ke said excitedly: "It's the last general, Chen Ke will meet Zhao Wang, Zhao Wang is a thousand years old!"

As an outstanding student of the Imperial Academy, Wang Fu was already stunned. He only saw that young man in military uniform, but with his calm demeanor, he could tell at the first sight that he was a man above others.

But when Li Chongjiu got off his horse and helped Chen Ke up, Chen Ke said: "Your Majesty, why do you take such a risk and join the rebellious army? The Turkic people just hit the outside of Youjing City, and this place is very dangerous. Finally, I beg your Majesty Enter the city immediately to be safe."

Li Chongjiu laughed loudly when he heard the words, and said: "At the beginning of my assassination, the 20 Turkic army couldn't do anything to me. Today, there are only a few thousand troops in this area, so what's the point? In Zhao’s territory, if I’m still timid at the door of my house, if I spread the word, it will make people laugh at me, I, Li Chongjiu, have no guts.”

As soon as Li Chongjiu said this, the soldiers of Zhao Jun and the common people all applauded.Everyone's eyes are full of admiration, this is real courage, and they look down upon the heroes. If the same words are said in other people's mouths, they will only feel that they are arrogant, but only Li Chongjiu said so, and everyone is convinced. .

As for Wang Fu, a young scholar, he couldn't help admiring him. He thought to himself that this is the real hero, who has no other sons, who is better than me in the world, really domineering.

He remembered that everyone in Youjing said that Li Chongjiu used a bow to assassinate Shibi Khan among thousands of troops and retreated completely, thus becoming famous in the first battle.On the side of the saddle of Li Chongjiu's war horse were six quiveres full of upside-down white feathers. Seeing this scene, Wang Fu admired it even more.

At that moment, Wang Fu turned his eyes, thinking that since he couldn't catch the Turkic people, then he had to impress the king, so what if he followed Mao's example and recommended himself.

Thinking of this, Wang Fu stepped forward, and Li Chongjiu's servant saw someone approaching, and immediately shouted: "Who is it!"

Wang Fu said loudly: "Wang Fu, the son of the Imperial Supervisor, is here to pay homage to King Zhao!"

Wang Fu smiled. He expected that with the name of Guozijian, Li Chongjiu would not refuse to see him.

Sure enough, Li Chongjiu said: "Oh, why are the students of the Imperial College here?"

Chen Keyan said: "The three hundred scholars from Guozijian County said that the country is in trouble, and they should stand up and go to the country in trouble, so they came to serve in the army. If the general refuses, they still don't leave."

Li Chongjiu showed admiration, motioned to the left and right to let Wang Fu come forward, and then asked, "Where is your native place?"

Wang Fu made a bow and said: "Reporting to King Zhao, I am a person from Bohai, and my ancestors forgot about Jinglue."
Li Chongjiu said seriously: "Could it be that you are talking about the princes of the world?"

Wang Fu said: "It is the ancestor of the boy."

Li Chongjiu said happily at the moment: "It turns out to be a descendant of a famous family."

Wang Fu said modestly: "These are all false names. Those who rely on the strength of their father and brother to advance to the top are not worth mentioning. Only the king who was born as a commoner and managed the world with nothing is a true hero."

Li Chongjiu smiled.

Seeing that Chen Ke was about to speak, Wang Fu would not miss this opportunity, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the army has arrived now, and the Turkic army is going deep into the Great Wall alone. Our army can't sit and guard Youjing, it's time to take advantage of the momentum and pursue it. "

He has experienced in two lifetimes, received countless people and things, and is even more inseparable in seeing people. What this young man thinks, what he wants, and why he appeared in front of him at this time is almost a guess.

In Li Chongjiu's eyes, the other party is a talent that can be cultivated, but well, he is just too eager, and he seems to be a bit of a secondary school.

Before Li Chongjiu could speak, Chen Ke said at the side: "The king has his own opinions on military affairs, so there is no room for you to speak."
