Chapter 1233 Night Talk in the Mountain
Han Xin once commented on Xiang Yu like this: "When King Xiang saw people, he was respectful and kind, and his words were vomiting. If the people were sick, he would weep and share food and drink. When he made people meritorious, he was awarded a title, and he could not bear to do it. This is the so-called woman." Human kindness. ”
The first of the two most famous "women's benevolence" figures in history is Song Xianggong. This prince raised the banner of benevolence and righteousness and refused to take advantage of the danger of others. He took advantage of the favorable opportunity for the Chu army to cross the river to attack the Chu army. It must be an upright fight to the death under fair and just conditions. As a result, even if Song Xianggong personally pressed the battle, it was because he had missed the opportunity. The small Song army was no match for the Chu army with more people.
The second one is Xiang Yu...
Of course, what Changsun Wuji meant was not to compare Fang Jun to the great heroes of one of the princes such as Xianggong Xiang Yu of the Song Dynasty, but to ridicule Fang Jun for appeasing the weak, not understanding the general situation, and having the benevolence of a woman but not the determination of a husband.
"Those who achieve great things in ancient times do not stick to trivial matters. They are just hunters in the mountains. If they can achieve their goals, why would they care about their lives? The nobles are aloof and look down on all living beings. The overall situation should be the only priority in our eyes. How can we miss great things because of small benevolence? ?”
Changsun Wuji said coldly.
Since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, almost all the political power in the Central Plains has been controlled by aristocratic families. Since the Sui and Tang dynasties relied on the support of the Guanzhong clan, and the Shandong clan still maintained a centuries-old tradition of emphasizing reading and lectures on Confucian classics, they still enjoyed superior political and social status.
This formed a social form in which the noble clans were superior and controlled all living beings.
Even though he was at odds with Fang Jun, Changsun Wuji still classified Fang Jun into the same noble clan as himself. In his opinion, this is the foundation of social stability and the foundation of the advancement of the empire. There is a distinction between superior and inferior, and the order of high and low is just like the order of the universe and the order of the four seasons.
Fang Jun said with a smile: "Is Zhao Guogong instructing me to set fire to the mountain as a warning so that Changsun Chong can be captured alive and prevent him from escaping?"
Changsun Wuji snorted and shut up without answering.
He just couldn't stand Fang Jun's behavior and couldn't help but taunted him. As Fang Jun said just now, since Changsun Chong dared to go to Ziwu Valley and enter Shu by way of his own way, how could there be no internal support among the Ziwu Valley garrison?
The eldest son's family has been a powerful family for hundreds of years. Even if its influence in the military is declining, it is still necessary to have a few children with deep roots to serve in the military...
Fang Jun then said to Dugu Mou and others: "Is your prediction good? Since Zhao Guogong said this, he is obviously not afraid of you setting fire to warn others. If you listen to your words, this mountain fire will definitely spread and kill countless people. Changsun Chong is afraid that he has quietly passed through the Wu Valley... Pass the order quickly. There is no need to tangle with the garrison in Ziwu Valley. As long as we find traces of Chang Sun Chong and others, we can just continue to pursue them blindly. There are many of us, and we are chasing each other all the way. We are tired. Tired them to death!”
Dugumou was convinced: "Here!"
Go ahead and issue the latest order yourself.
Changsun Wuji's expression changed, but he didn't expect Fang Jun to be so shrewd. He could guess that the Changsun family had secret connections among the garrison in Ziwu Valley just from his own taunt...
The soldiers lit a bonfire in the middle of the mountain. The cold wind blew and sparks flew everywhere.
The blazing bonfire dispelled the cold, and Fang Jun huddled up and leaned in front of the fire, feeling better.
Changsun Wuji also felt uncomfortable with the cold. He went to the campfire and stretched out his hands to warm himself. He looked at Fang Jun, who was injured, and said coldly: "Why are you bothering? In fact, you and I both know that the Zhongnan Mountain area is vast and forested. Hiding in the mountains and trying to find it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and the chance of catching it is slim. ”
Fang Jun rubbed his shoulders and asked: "In that case, why does Duke Zhao have to warm himself by the fire in the cold wind? Wouldn't it be more comfortable to have delicious food in the beautiful houses in the mansion?"
Changsun Wuji was silent for a long time, and then he sighed: "As a father, how can I eat and sleep with peace of mind when my children suffer such a disaster?"
Fang Jun also fell silent.
Why did Sun Wuji, the dignified first person of the Zhenguan Dynasty, the eldest son of Zhao Guogong, go to the mountains at night and be exposed to the cold wind and the severe cold?
In a word, it’s not just for the children...
Changsun Chong's rebellion has caused Changsun Wuji to be alienated by His Majesty, and now he has committed the serious crime of kidnapping the princess. Once caught, even the golden sign of Changsun's family may not be able to save his life.
But the world has never seen parents who ignore the life and death of their children as if they were nothing...
Fang Jun nodded: "Although it is unacceptable from a certain standpoint, it is understandable."
Of course he was talking about Changsun Wuji's obstruction of the pursuit.
Thinking of the children in the wombs of Princess Gaoyang and Wu Meiniang, Fang Jun was very excited. He wondered what these two children who should not have appeared in this world would look like after they were born.
Will I be like those slaves of sons and slaves of daughters that I despised in my previous life, willing to work as cows and horses for my children, and wishing to give them all the good things in the world?
Changsun Wuji was slightly surprised when he heard Fang Jun's words: "Don't think that with a few words of sympathy, I can eliminate my hostility towards you. You must know that most of the reason why my elder man is where he is today is I want to thank you!”
Fang Jun raised his hand and scratched his eyebrows. He was a little close to the bonfire. A gust of wind had just blown the flames, which almost burned his eyebrows: "Actually, Duke Zhao is wrong. The reason why Changsun Chong is today has little to do with me. The key lies in him. The structure is too small and the mind is not enough. You cannot accept things with an open mind, but you have to dig into the corners of everything and push yourself into a desperate situation.”
Changsun Wuji said displeasedly: "If you hadn't repeatedly targeted me, how would Dalang have become your enemy? If I hadn't become your enemy, why would I have made mistakes every step of the way, sinking deeper and deeper until I couldn't look back?"
Fang Jun said: "So it is wrong to say that Duke Zhao Guo! I have always been a person first before doing things. Everyone in Guanzhong calls me a stick, but if they don't provoke me first, why would I provoke others first? Changsun Chong is very jealous and has a strong desire to compare. , he feels inferior to me in everything, so he only has eyes for me, Fang Jun, but my eyes...are the whole world!”
This is the difference between Fang Jun and Changsun Chong!
When Changsun Chong saw that Fang Junyi was the commander of the Shenji Battalion, he was unhappy and planned to rob him. But what did Fang Jun do? He handed over the Shenji Camp with both hands and made other plans. Finally, step by step, he became famous in the south of the Yangtze River, shocked the river, swept away the rebels, and became the first-class general of the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop!
This is a difference in realm.
If, as a time traveler, Fang Jun still wants to surpass Chang Sun Chong and suppress Chang Sun Chong, that would be a joke!
The biggest golden finger of a time traveler is not mathematics, physics, and chemistry, but the kind of vision that looks out over the world, has a beautiful chest, and looks around the world!
When you have a panoramic view of the world, even if you are in a corner of Chang'an, you will still look at the world and look down on the people from a higher angle. Everything you do will be in line with the trend of the times and be high-minded.
"Hold the thigh" is something that travelers must do. Sometimes this "thigh" is not a certain person, but the trend!
Going to the late Han Dynasty to unify is as difficult as going to the Tang Dynasty to cede territory to the king. It is a hell-level difficulty. As long as it is not crazy, who would do such a thing?
Travelers are not omnipotent, they still have flesh and blood, and they will still die if they are stabbed with a knife...
The night wind blew and the flames swayed. Dry firewood was thrown into the bonfire and swept by the flames, making a crisp sound.
Changsun Wuji was a little distracted for a moment...
He only has me, Fang Jun, in his eyes, but I, Fang Jun, have the whole world in his eyes...
After thinking about it carefully, Changsun Wuji had to admit that what Fang Jun said was very reasonable, even if he didn't want to admit it in his heart.
From each piece of Fang Jun's actions, we can see his influence on the entire empire and even the entire era step by step. Whether it is glass, gunpowder, papermaking, printing, shipping, or the invincible navy across the seven seas...
Changsun Wuji suddenly discovered that the world had gradually become completely different from before! The habits that had lasted for thousands of years were gradually changed by reality, such as crystal clear glass, gunpowder that cracked mountains and rocks, and the naval fleet that traveled across the ocean to solve the food shortage problem in Guanzhong...
It seems that everything Fang Jun does is perfectly in line with the general trend of the world.
Is it just that Fang Jun is keenly aware of the general trend of the world and takes advantage of it, or does this general trend... arise because of him?
He looked at Fang Jun with complicated eyes.
That’s all for today. My mind is a little confused. After I sorted out the outline, I felt that I was a little off track. Obviously I am not a stray person...
