Chapter 218 I underestimated them
"What does it say on this?"
Guo Fu ran to Zhou Botong and shouted: "Zhou Botong, please give me a copy of this."
Zhou Botong likes people who are the same age as him. Hearing Guo Fu call him by his first name, he didn't take it seriously. He smiled and said, "Young boy Yang seems to be criticizing Zhao Guan's family."
There were several sheets of the newspaper in a thick stack. While he was talking, he separated out a few sheets and gave them to Guo Fu and others. He kept a few sheets for himself and did not return to the room. He squatted at the entrance of the cave and started reading.
Hong Qigong rushed out of the cave and shouted: "Why is there only one portion? Yin Zhou, boy, get another one!"
At this time, Yin Zhou was still outside the cave. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "Brother Hong, I also have a copy of "Mingjiao Weekly" here. Do you want to read it?"
Hong Qigong asked: "Mingjiao Weekly? What is that?"
Yin Zhou asked someone to fetch a magazine and stuff it into the cave through the crack in the door: "It's some entertainment, just suitable for killing time."
Hong Qigong picked it up and looked at it, and found that the weekly magazine actually contained some poems and songs, and even a serialized story called "Journey to the West". The author turned out to be Yang Xingzhou.
Hong Qigong was surprised: "He is about to become an emperor, but he still has the leisure and elegance to write stories?"
He couldn't stand the poems and songs, but the simple and easy-to-understand stories serialized in the magazine just scratched his itch. He started reading it with great interest, even as Ouyang Feng was being escorted to another place.
Watching, I could only faintly hear Yang Guo's caring words towards Ouyang Feng, but as for what he said, he turned a deaf ear.
In fact, the novel chapters serialized in the publication in his hand can be said to have no beginning or end. If it were left to later generations, most people would not be able to read it. However, Hong Qigong was imprisoned in prison. Although he had no worries about food and drink, he was very
It's a little pastime, and although the current serialized publications are fragments, they are enough to have a great attraction for him.
Not only him, but also everyone else was curious. This "Mingjiao Weekly" turned out to be a publication that everyone wanted to read in the cave. Everyone wanted to take a look, especially Zhou Botong, after reading the serial chapters.
, yelling at the Mingjiao disciples guarding them: "Quick, quick, get all the previous contents of this weekly!"
After the Mingjiao disciples sent this weekly magazine and the previous newspapers to the cave one by one, Zhou Botong and others just settled down. At this time, everyone saw the beginning of "Journey to the West" and admired Sun Wukong's skills in the book.
's body fell to the ground.
Unlike Hong Qigong and others who like to watch the excitement, Guo Jing, Huang Rong, his wife and Master Yideng are interested in the current affairs news written in newspapers.
This newspaper has the same content, but there are two versions, one is the vernacular version, and the other is the classical Chinese version. In this era, literati writing requires concise writing and concise articles. Everyone respects describing the most things in the least number of words.
Things, few people would write things in the style of market slang.
However, the vernacular version of this newspaper described some things in the most understandable vernacular way.
Guo Jing, Hong Qigong and others looked very friendly, and they could understand what was written on it. However, Huang Yaoshi and Huang Rong frowned, feeling that the vernacular articles published in the newspapers were vulgar, poorly worded, and lacking in quality.
It captured a lot of the beauty of the text, so both of them abandoned the vernacular version and focused on the classical Chinese version.
Although this newspaper is printed once a day, the Kunlun Mountains are far away from the Central Plains. The latest news about the Central Plains that everyone can read in the newspaper was only ten days ago, and ten days ago, Lin'an City had been breached.
"Lin'an City has been captured!"
After Guo Jing read the news in the newspaper, he looked at Huang Rong with a dull look on his face: "The newspaper said that Mingjiao disciples attacked the city with artillery, broke down the city gates, and pushed all the way. The officers and soldiers along the way could not stop it. This artillery is really so powerful.
?”
Huang Rong saw his ugly face and hurriedly comforted him: "Brother Jing, the things in this newspaper cannot be true. Who knows if they were written deliberately to deceive people! I have also heard the name of the artillery, but if it says it can blow up the city,
Gate and razing the city are too exaggerated. Yang Xingzhou’s boasts about these imperial literati are too much!”
Huang Yaoshi was also beside him at this time, with a solemn look on his face: "Rong'er, this newspaper is not exaggerating. I have personally seen Mingjiao disciples attack the city with artillery. After the cannonballs were fired, there was no way that flesh and blood could compete with them. The city walls
You can even make a hole, let alone a city gate?"
When he said this, he shouted to Hong Qigong in the distance: "Seventh brother, you should have seen the power of Mingjiao disciples' artillery. Come and tell Ronger Jing'er!"
Hong Qigong said: "I won't tell! Let Jing'er ask his son-in-law!"
Yang Guo stood up helplessly, came to Guo Jing and Huang Rong, and said: "Uncle, aunt, the artillery produced by the Mingjiao Liehuo Banners is extremely powerful. It is not difficult to blast open the city gate. News about the war in the newspapers will basically not be false.
Even if it is a lie, it is only to exaggerate the scale of the victory of the Ming Cult disciples, and not to fabricate the facts out of thin air."
He is Yang Xingzhou's disciple and Yang Xingzhou's nephew. He has learned the true inheritance of Yang Xingzhou's skills. What he said is naturally different. After hearing this, Guo Jing was silent for a long time before saying: "Guo'er, you are smart.
You can see things clearly, tell me the truth, with the ability of Mingjiao disciples, is it possible to defeat the Mongolian army?"
Yang Guo said: "If we are purely defending the city, with artillery and sharp weapons, the Mongolian army will never be able to cross the city wall. As for counterattacking the Mongolian army, it is actually not too difficult. There are tens of thousands of Mingjiao disciples who are elite, wearing armor and powerful.
Infinitely, many soldiers have practiced the Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu of Jinlun Dharma King. These tens of thousands of masters work together to kill the enemy, which is enough to kill a hundred enemies, and hundreds of thousands of troops cannot stop them."
Guo Jing said: "Do you think he really has the ability to fight back against Mongolia?"
Yang Guo said: "Of course there is. Defeating the Mongolian officers and soldiers is not a big problem. It's just that we don't have enough cavalry. It will be a little difficult to chase down the Mongolian officers and soldiers in the future."
Guo Jing was stunned: "Chasing Mongolian officers and soldiers? Since the war between Song and Mongolia, have we ever pursued Mongolian officers and soldiers? They have always been chasing us!"
When the Song Dynasty fought against Mongolia, it always lost more than it won. After Guo Jing and his wife went to Xiangyang, they could only guard Xiangyang City, but they never counterattacked the Mongolian officers and soldiers.
For the people of the Central Plains, it is already a great thing to be able to defend the city under the attack of the grassland officers and soldiers. As for the Jedi counterattack? I am afraid that even if Yue Wumu is reborn, he may not be able to resist these Mongolian cavalry.
Now seeing that Yang Guo had so much confidence in the disciples of the Ming Cult, Guo Jing was extremely surprised: "How can the disciples of the Ming Cult be so powerful?"
After he was brought to Kunlun Mountain by Yang Xingzhou, Mingjiao disciples entered Xiangyang City to assist Yang Guo and Guo Fu in defending the city. Therefore, Guo Jing had never been very clear about the Mingjiao disciples' combat capabilities and the destructive power of artillery. Now he heard Yang Guo's
Mingjiao disciples praised him so much, and then he realized that he had underestimated Mingjiao too much. To be precise, he had underestimated Yang Xingzhou!
Hearing Yang Guo's high praise for the Ming Cult disciples, everyone in the cave knew that Lin'an City would not be spared. Zhou Botong was still reading books and periodicals with great interest, while Guo Jing and others were thinking about the same question: "If Lin'an City is destroyed, how will Yang Xingzhou treat it?"
Zhao family?"
