Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 20 Ziwei Emperor Star

However, Zhang Shun originally saw that his own formation had the upper hand, but the ambush team that came up from behind was beaten to the point of collapse by the opponent. Zhang Shun was shocked and was about to order Wukong to charge into the formation. But they heard a commotion among the enemy, and then most of the officers and soldiers abandoned their troops and surrendered. Only a small number of officers and soldiers took advantage of the chaos to escape. It turned out that it was Zhang Sanbai who killed the enemy generals, causing the officers and soldiers to collapse.

Zhang Shun quickly ordered a pursuit. After chasing for three or four miles, he actually chased back all the fleeing officers and soldiers. The dead patrol officer probably did not expect that the final result would be like this. The officers and soldiers failed to catch the robbers, but were instead arrested by the robbers.

Along the way, Zhang Shun and others did not see what Zhao Lizi was doing. They neither intercepted the enemy nor pretended to be suspicious. Zhang Shunqi ignored him. Instead, he gathered the scattered troops and generals to discuss the next move.

At this time, everyone was very excited and thought that they should imitate the surprise attack on Mengjin City. They would not stop doing anything and simply took the opportunity to attack the county seat of Mengxian County. Zhang Shun had no objection to this, so he simply asked Wukong to lead twenty or thirty men who dared to fight as the vanguard, pretending to break up the army and seize the city gate, leaving the wounded Zhang Sanbai to guard the prisoners, and sent someone to inform Daoist Ma. Come and join Zhang Sanbai and others. And he led Chen Jindou, Zhang Wuhao and others to follow up as the main force.

However, after everyone had marched for several miles, they were unexpectedly stopped by a young man.

When Zhang Shun first met this young man, he thought he was a Taoist priest. It turns out that this person's surname was Chen Mingwei, with the courtesy name Jingzhi. Ben was a literary scholar from Meng County, also known as a scholar. In addition to their daily Confucian clothes, literati in the Ming Dynasty also particularly liked to wear Taoist clothes. The reason why Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms period and Liu Bowen in the early Ming Dynasty were interpreted as Taoist priests who were knowledgeable about astronomy and geography was actually due to the habit of Confucian scholars in the Ming Dynasty who liked to wear Taoist robes.

This person is like this. Although he looks only sixteen or seventeen years old and his childishness is still there, he is still able to talk in a blue Taoist robe. He looks like a fake adult and has the demeanor of a celebrity.

Zhang Shun was quite amused when he saw him, so he rushed over to touch his head and ask him why he came. Chen Wei ran away angrily and angrily said: "When the magistrate of my county heard that the king had arrived, he specifically ordered me to prepare two oxen for everyone. But I never thought that the king would be so rude and insult the envoy!"

It turns out that touching the head is meant to express affection. In ancient times, it was mostly done by elders to younger people. It does not have the same meaning as the popular "touching the head to kill" in modern times. Zhang Shun was originally only seventeen or eighteen years old, not much different in age from him, but it was Meng Lang who did this.

At this time, when everyone heard that this man claimed to be sent by the magistrate of Meng County, he offered two cows to entertain everyone. After hearing this, everyone suddenly felt uneasy, feeling that the plan for the sneak attack had been leaked, or suggested: "Since the magistrate of Meng County knows our movements, he is afraid that they will be prepared, so it is not appropriate to attack again." Or said: "Now that we have obtained two oxen, we are satisfied. You can turn your attack elsewhere."

Zhang Shun didn't say anything. He stared at the young man for a long time and then looked at the two oxen. One was in his prime and the other was a calf. He couldn't help laughing.

"Why is the king laughing?" Chen Jingzhi asked strangely.

"This is a tactic used by suspicious soldiers!" Zhang Shun said with a smile, "I laugh at you for throwing yourself into a trap and risking your own death. In ancient times, another country wanted to sneak attack on a country. The merchants of that country happened to know about this, so they pretended to send cattle If you go to the enemy and call it a gift from your country, the enemy will think that the country is prepared and give up the attack. Now you are just following the wisdom of the ancients."

It turns out that Zhang Shun accidentally saw a similar story in his previous life, so he saw through this person's plan.

"Why did the king so unjustly accuse Xiaosheng?" Chen Jingzhi asked without changing his expression after hearing this.

"This matter is easy to hear. Oxen are farming animals. The government has long had regulations that prohibit killing without permission. If there is disobedience, most of them are done privately, how can they be done openly? Even if the county magistrate does not know, the cultivators know it themselves, so they would rather sacrifice the old and the weak. How can we give away young, young and young oxen?"

After listening to this, they wanted to step forward and chop the man into pieces. Unexpectedly, this man also laughed and said: "Your Majesty is indeed alert. This is a plan of doubting the soldiers. I followed the example of Xian Gao and rewarded the army to save the country and retreated from Qin to save Zheng. I have been here for a long time, so I will try this. Jun Er!"

After saying this, the man bowed to Zhang Shun three times and called him "Lord". Zhang Shun was surprised and happy, and asked why.

Chen Jingzhi replied: "Although I am young, I like to read hundreds of classics and histories, and I am good at astronomy, geography, yin and yang, and medical divination."

"A few days ago, I was watching the stars at night, and suddenly I saw purple stars moving, rising from the river and Luo. This is the king of the king. I also saw the floods, the wind and the clouds. I looked at them, and the Qi turned into five colors. This is the Qi of the Son of Heaven. Ye. When Emperor Qin traveled to the southeast and was disgusted with it, this was the spirit."

"Jingzhi is not talented, but he knows a little bit about the art of divination. When he got up early in the morning, he made divinations and knew that he would meet the True Dragon Emperor here today. Therefore, he has been waiting for the Lord here for a long time. However, Jingzhi does not know the appearance of the Lord, and he is afraid that thieves will take advantage of him. Therefore, I brought in my own ox to test my ears. Now I know that the Lord is just and I should respond. Please forgive me for being disrespectful."

Zhang Shun didn't believe him after hearing this. He just said that if his plan failed, he would try another plan, but he just wanted to live. However, at this time, I have no shadow from my ancestors, no help from my brothers, no family property, no financial resources, and in troubled times, I have to risk my life. If destiny is with me, all loyal people will be loyal ministers; if destiny is not with me, all loyal people will be loyal ministers.

It's just that Zhang Shun couldn't help but feel depressed. In his previous life, he read online novels and found that other monarchs were all powerful advisers and unparalleled generals. How could he be here with all the "crooked melons and cracked jujubes" and "gods and gods" stuff?

One Wukong is fierce and fierce, but he calls himself the "Monkey King"; the other Zhang Sanbai is somewhat like Yue Fei and Zhao Yun, and recently he plays the role of "Erlang Zhenjun". Not to mention Taoist Ma, Chen Jindou and Zhao Yutou, they are all like witches and witches. This time, a young scholar finally came, but he was also an "astrologer". I really had nothing to say. If he hadn't seen any miracles and immortal fate, I might have to wonder whether he had traveled to the fairy plane.

However, complaints are complaints. Zhang Shun thought that he was young, talented in literature, and very courageous, so he began to love talents and said to everyone: "I am so sincere, if I get this person, I will get a thousand cities."

The so-called "Sincerity Uncle" is Liu Ji and Liu Bowen. Zhang Shun praised his subordinates for always sparing no effort. After hearing this, Chen Jingzhi did not dare to say that, but he was overjoyed and said in his heart: "My lord is really my Zhu Hongwu! Lord, don't worry, I don't dare to compare myself to a thousand cities, but I can compare myself to one. Wait for me to offer my advice to you, lord." I took the city of Meng County to show my heart."

"Oh? What can you do?" Zhang Shun suddenly became interested, and his reaction was quite quick.

There is another chapter in the evening. In this chapter, Chen Wei, the character of the book friend "Jun Mo Xin" appears. In order to conform to the outline and ancient habits, I have made some modifications, and hereby explain.
