Ma Kuo

The fire flows in July, and the weather cools down in June. Although it is still extremely hot during the day, the breeze is buzzing in the morning and evening, which makes people feel refreshed.

Early in the morning of that day, Wang Xiao came to the yayan summer heat. He looked around and saw that there was nothing wrong, so he went to the official hall to check the official documents.

Officials sent to observe the people's sentiments are about to come back, and schools to train officials are going to be opened. There are many things happening recently. Although the civil affairs are handed over to Chen Qiudao, such important things must be watched by Wang Xiao. The newly recruited soldiers began to leave the recruit camp one after another and the army

Expansion is slowly getting on track, and business is also busy.

After watching for a long time, Wang Xiaolie felt dizzy. He stood up, walked to the yard, and sat in the pavilion to rest for a while.

Just as he closed his eyes, the judge Gao Ying hurried in. When he arrived outside the pavilion, he saw Wang Xiaoliu resting, and hesitated there for a moment.

Hearing the footsteps, Wang Xiaoli opened his eyes. Seeing Gao Ying standing outside, he asked, "What's wrong with the magistrate coming?"

Gao Ying said: "Just just came to report that Ma Kuo, the new Hedong South Road Pacifier, has arrived outside the city. I wonder what Xuanfu will do?"

Wang Xiaoli was stunned and hurriedly stood up. After thinking for a while, he said, "You go to pick him up into the city on my behalf. So arrange to live in a newly built place to receive officials. Remember to choose a separate courtyard and don't neglect it.

Ma Kuo arranged his place to live and brought him to see me."

Gao Ying said yes, and hurried out.

Gao Ying was from Henan Prefecture, and was a Jinshi in the sixth year of Xuanhe. After becoming a Jinshi, he lived in vain and did not go out to be an official. The Jin army captured Luoyang, and Gao Ying and his family avoided disaster in Songshan. After Wang Xiaoli recovered from Luoyang, he was only then

After leaving Songshan, he was appointed as the magistrate of Henan Prefecture last month.

When they were in Xiangyang, people never regarded Wang Xiaoli as a regular army in the court, and few Jinshi came out to serve as officials. Until Luoyang was occupied and Shaanxi was victorious, people's views gradually changed. Some Jinshis in seclusion were still

Some officials from the previous dynasty were willing to come out to become officials.

Ma Kuo's courtesy name was Zichong, Di Daoren, and was born in the eighth year of Zhenghe. At the junction of the Song Dynasty, Ma Kuo sent to Jin and Liao, and was a sensational figure for the time. Later, he gathered a rebel army to fight against Jin in Wuma Mountain and was elected as Hedong and Hebei.

The leader of the rebel army later failed and went south to Yangzhou. During the Miao and Liu mutiny, Ma Kuo was appointed as the Privy Council and contacted the rebels at the order of Prime Minister Zhu Shengfei. He was implicated and demoted to Yongzhou for supervision. It was not until last year that he was demoted.

The Right Wu Doctor and the Hezhou Defense Envoy were allowed to do so.

With his status, Wang Xiaolie wanted to do his best to help these people who have made contributions to the country. A few days ago, he asked the horse to expand to serve on Hedong Road, which led to this appointment. In fact, Wang Xiaolie led his troops here.

The general is not responsible for civil affairs, and those who are in charge of civil affairs generally do not lead troops. Letting the horse expand is just to give him a chance.

After more than an hour, Gao Ying and his horse expanded into the Henan Prefecture Office and went to the living room to see Wang Xiaoli.

Seeing Gao Ying following a big man, with a burly figure and a firm look, Wang Xiaolie knew that it was Ma Kuo who came. He said, "It's hard to defend against him."

Ma Kuo bowed: "It's not hard to do it just a few thousand miles. Xuanfu led his troops to the northern expedition, restored Xijing, and won the Jin army in a row. This was the greatest military achievement since the Jin thieves invaded the south! When I was in Rongzhou, I

I wonder what kind of person he could do such a big thing. When I saw him today, I didn’t expect Xuan Fu to be so young!”

Wang Xiaolei said: "It's just a lucky moment."

Ma Kuo laughed: "I grew up in the army and have seen many actions of the Jin army. Don't you know how difficult it is to fight in Shaanxi? I ​​can kill more than 20,000 Jin thieves in a formation, so how can I attack luck?

Can you explain it clearly?”

Wang Xiaoli also laughed and said to Ma Kuo: "Defense gathers troops in Wuma Mountain. At that time, the world is shocked. Even the Jin people dare not underestimate the defense. The bad luck in recent years has really suffered. Now, now it is not enough.

When we are on the front line again, we should strive for our courage and serve the country."

Ma Kuo nodded and said, "Yes. A real man was born in heaven and earth, how could he be silent in the countryside? Xuanfu now has 100,000 tiger and wolf soldiers under his command, and he will conquer the Ri and go north to expel the captives! Jin

The thief was born in a barren land, but he was just a person who ate meat and drank blood. He took advantage of the troubles of the Central Plains and was in danger of being in danger of being in the world. How could I let my men in the Central Plains do it? Today I have Xuanfu, which is the blessing of the people of the world!"

"I have heard of the ancient Chinese swords in the Central Plains. How could I pass on the descendants of Hu? "Wang Xiaoli silently recited Lu You's poem, but he didn't speak for a long time.

Before the Song Dynasty, there were constant wars between the Central Plains and the northern ethnic groups, and even when the Five Barbarians invaded and caused the land of China to sink. However, the Song Dynasty was the first dynasty that allowed the northern ethnic groups to unify the world and spread to later generations.

People in later generations cannot understand how such a thing happened no matter how. The territory is larger than the enemy, the population is larger than the enemy, and the national strength is stronger than the enemy, so how can they not be defeated? Moreover, at this time, many famous generals emerged and there is no shortage of talents.

I can only say that there are many such magical things in history. The reason why it is magical is that later generations do not understand this era. In fact, peeling it apart layer by layer can only say that the defeat of the Song Dynasty is natural. In this era, whether it is lord or

I can't get rid of my responsibility.

Asking Ma Kuo to sit down, asked him about the situation on the road, and said a few words. Wang Xiaoliu said: "It's really hard to defend against the wind and sleep in the open all the way. Tonight I will prepare a banquet to welcome you. I have washed away the dust. These days you have

Have a good rest."

Ma Kuo said: "The imperial court appointed me as the envoy of Hedong South Road. Judging from the meaning of Xuanfu, there is no need to rush to take office?"

Wang Xiaoli nodded: "I have many different places here than other places. You need to understand the defense so that you can go to Hedong. To be honest, I have always advocated that the army does not care about civil affairs, and the local officials do not care about the army. The military and civilians are in charge of the recruitment envoys.

Some are inconvenient."

Ma Kuo said: "Since I have come here, I will naturally follow the arrangements of Xuanfu. If someone else is there, I will not say such things. But Xuanfu is different. During the Jingkang period, the rebel army served the king and later occupied several states. Others were robbing him.

When the territory was robbed of grain and money, Xuanfu gathered a large army of 100,000 to fight against the Jin army from time to time, and won consecutive victories. In the world today, Xuanfu can be called a true hero!

”

Wang Xiaoliu heard this and was stunned for a moment.

In recent years, I have been busy and everything feels a bit dull. Today, I suddenly hear someone calling me a true hero, but I don’t know how to answer.

Are you a hero? Wang Xiaolie has never thought about this question for so many years. But when I think back, although he has no heroic deeds, his achievements are beyond anyone called a hero.

Perhaps, the real hero in this world is not what people generally believe to be heroes.

Seeing Wang Xiaohunting trance, Ma Kuo said: "Xuan Fu's deeds spread all over the world. But I thought a lot, but I didn't expect Xuan Fu to be so young. Perhaps since ancient times, heroes have been young, and only Xuan Fu can break those

Don’t do something good!”

Wang Xiaoli shook his head and sighed, "Looking back on these years, I have been trembling in doing things, walking on thin ice, afraid that something would have done wrong. All the heroes in the world are full of heroism, and there is no such cautious person as me! Defense, and favor

Now.”

Ma Kuo shook his head after hearing this: "Zhuge is only cautious in his life. How can those who do big things not be cautious? It is precisely because of Xuanfu and cautious that they can accomplish those big things. If some generals only think about their prestige when doing things, in the end they will only be able to do things.

It's a waste of time to get a bamboo basket."

Wang Xiaolie nodded after hearing this and couldn't help but smile.

After Ma Kuo was allowed to live freely, Zhang Jun once wrote to him and invited him to his own curtain. Ma Kuo replied that because Liu Ziyu was in Zhang Jun's curtain, he would not go. Before he went to Wuma Mountain, Ma

Kuo had a conflict with Liu Ziyu in Zhending Mansion, and was falsely accused of colluding with Jin people and was sent to prison, almost losing his life. Ma Kuo still remembered this Liang Zi back then.

Since he led his troops, Wang Xiaolie has been guarding against Zhang Jun to direct him directly. Unexpectedly, Ma Kuo had the same idea as him. Zhang Jun was determined to resist the Jin Dynasty, but he really had no military talent. Such talent made Wang Xiaolie headache.
