Chapter 273 Compete with Confucius, what are you fighting for?(2/2)
At this time, Xi Yu is just like Confucius back then, even worse!
Why?
Because it is recorded in "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" that "Confucius' strength is the gateway to the whole country..."
In other words, with Confucius's strength, he could open the city gate with his bare hands!
Note that the door here does not refer to the door latch of the home, but the city gate!
You know, the city gates at that time were basically made of solid wood. Even if it is conservatively estimated, the weight should be more than 800 kilograms. There were very few people who could move it, but Confucius was one of them!
If this is not enough to show the strength of Confucius, then there is another person who can serve as a reference.
In "Huainanzi Master's Training", there is a record of such a martial artist. His name is Meng Ben. He is extremely physically strong. He once separated two fighting cows with his own strength.
Even the description of Meng Ben in "Biographies of the Zhou Dynasty" is very vivid, saying that he "walks on water without avoiding dragons, and on land does not avoid tigers and wolves..."
But even such a brave and unparalleled man was still lacking when compared with Confucius.
If not, there would be no such rumors as "Confucius was wiser than Chang Hong, braver than Meng Ben..."
This shows how powerful Confucius really is.
only······
Nowadays, more scribes believe that Xi Yu is similar to the Confucius described in the classics!
Thesis, what Xi Yu did back then has already become famous all over the world, and has attracted all the literati to admire, praise, and discuss martial arts. Not to mention how powerful his own martial arts is, not one of the hundreds of thousands of troops behind him is a vegetarian.
!
In addition, everyone is a cultural person, and few people are willing to fight with Xi Yu. The key is that the hundreds of thousands of troops behind him are rough guys, and they are not unreasonable at all!
When a scholar encounters a soldier, he cannot explain why.
The most important thing is that even if you just start talking, before you say what is going on, the other party's fist will already be punched in the face.
In addition to these, the most similar place between Xi Yu and Confucius is "shooting" and "improving" among the six arts of the gentleman.
Confucius was well versed in these two things. Coincidentally, Xi Yu was also very accomplished in these two aspects.
Even his shooting is not a simple archery, but a crossbow!
There is a heavy repeating crossbow in the army that is nearly 1.5 meters long. Even Dian Wei has to use two hands to lift it, but Pian Xiyu can flexibly operate it with one hand.
Especially when he encountered an enemy, he held a heavy repeating crossbow and made sudden moves. After a while, almost all those who should have fallen fell.
As for "royal", to put it bluntly, it means driving a car, or it can also be said to be "driving a horse!"
Of course, for Xi Yu, the term "horse riding" may be more suitable.
I remember that Huang Xu made a mistake and was afraid of being punished, so he secretly rode on Sabei Feng, intending to go out and hide for a while. However, as soon as he arrived at the city gate, he was caught by Xi Yu who came after hearing the news, and was beaten violently.
He even arrived at the city gate earlier than Huang Xu who escaped on Jueying!
Because this incident happened in the city, many people knew about it, and it can be regarded as one of Huang Xu's few dark histories.
But what everyone was more amazed by was Xi Yu’s speed!
Therefore, in the whole Xiapi, there are many people who can add Jiuxi to the sour play, but there are only a few people who dare to talk about it seriously in public.
Why?
Because I dare not!
In fact, it is not that no one has thought about spreading some words in public about Xiyu adding Jiuxi, and he has the intention to usurp the Han Dynasty, this is a taboo, and so on.
But before they could think of how to encourage people, a middle-aged man with a resolute face and wearing a Confucian shirt appeared in their mind.
Then, he ran around in the city risking his life, while the middle-aged man held a heavy crossbow and bombarded him indiscriminately.
Behind him were even thousands of black and white riders...
Just thinking of this made them shudder.
Forget it, if you think about it any longer, I'm afraid you will become a hedgehog lying in a pool of blood!
After everyone saw their fate, naturally no one would let go of their current good life and stir up trouble.
After all, you can't beat me again and again, and you can't even say it, so what else can you do?
Besides, even if someone is not qualified to add Jiuxi, you will not be the one who can add Jiuxi. In that case, why are you fighting?
Jiuxi, let's just say Jiuxi. Anyway, he is also the emperor's uncle. Compared with other people who have disloyal intentions and want to seek power and usurp the throne, he is still a good person.
Not only can he make money, he is also a good fighter.
Let’s not mention the distant ones, let’s talk about the recent giant crossbows, catapults, and flammable oil cans set up on the hillsides outside Xuzhou City...
These alone make no one in the world dare to have any other thoughts about Xuzhou.
It’s just that outsiders can’t get in. The key is that the unity within Xuzhou City is extraordinary.
Who doesn't know that the people living in Xuzhou City live and work in peace and contentment, and live comfortably and comfortably, and even the clan members live in peace and contentment without causing any trouble.
The people in a state are still like this, which shows that they are capable of playing tricks.
I think the real enlightened master should be like him.
So...forget it.
Whether to add Jiuxi or not doesn't seem to have much to do with me. What really matters is how the people in Xuzhou City live.
If I know about it in the future, I will have to learn to do it myself, and my life will definitely be more comfortable than now!
Without them to stir up trouble, winter passed very peacefully today.
Xi Yu's life is very leisurely, and Xu Chu is no exception.
However, he found something interesting.
That is, apart from the people he knew, there was not a single young general in the city. Even during the Chinese New Year, he didn't see any of them.
At the New Year's Eve banquet, he hadn't seen the younger generation yet, so he couldn't help but asked curiously.
It happened that Guo Jia had made arrangements under his rule and the general came back, so he explained to him: "Now the number of white cavalry has expanded to six thousand. Huang Xu led them to the vicinity of Chang'an to wait for the emperor's schedule after the new year!"
"As long as the emperor sets off and enters the designated area after the new year, Baiqi will rush out and bring the emperor back!"
"As for where the black knight has gone, I think only the lord knows."
Speaking of the Black Cavalry, they still don’t have a young leader, Zhao Yun has always been leading them.
Although Zhao Yun is not young now, he is still in his prime. Precisely because he has rich combat experience and is proficient in various combat skills in his prime, the black cavalry in his hands is more and more difficult to underestimate.
So, to put it bluntly, the younger generation of generals all went to participate in the battle for the emperor.
If everything goes well, I think everyone will be able to meet the Emperor this winter.
This was an order given secretly by Xi Yu, so no one knew that Black and White Cavalry was no longer in the city.
By the time everyone noticed, Bai Qi might have already crossed the Yellow River, crossed Hefei to Yanzhou, and then quietly hid in the deep mountains and forests from the Yanzhou border.
This is the benefit after the canal was opened.
When Xi Yu agreed to Cao Pi's request, besides wanting the three territories, the most important thing he valued most was the canal.
Because he had made an agreement with Sima Yi, the trading rights of the canal now fell into Xi Yu's hands.
Therefore, it was easy for him to let Bai Qi sneak into the caravan and go to Yanzhou.
Similarly, this is also the best route to reach Chang'an the fastest.
