Reborn Yue Feizhi returns my rivers and mountains

When Yue Fei saw Han Shizhong asking, he organized his thoughts and then said: "I just invited the general here, firstly, to relieve the siege between you and General Ding, and secondly, I really have something to ask in person."

Han Shizhong nodded and said: "Ding Jin, that cowardless rat, will definitely be a disaster in the future. I just hate that he is under the command of Lord Liubei, so I can't kill him on the spot. But please make it clear what you want to ask me."

Yue Fei said: "My younger brother knows that the general is loyal and loyal, and he and my master Zhou Tong are from Guanzhong, so we are close to each other. General Han has been on the battlefield for a long time and must have insights into military and state affairs, so I want to ask the general about state affairs."

Han Shizhong said curiously: "Now that you are a low-key official, you should obey the orders of the adults who stayed behind. The national affairs are so important, why do you worry so much?"

Yue Fei straightened his back and said loudly: "Although my official position is low now, I still want to follow the example of Duke Wen Zheng, 'worry about the world's worries first, and rejoice after the world's happiness.' Now the Jin people occupy Hedong and Hebei. From time to time, they invaded from the south, and the people were miserable. It was like being in dire straits. Who among the benevolent and righteous people in the world didn't want to expel the Tartars and restore peace to the world? Although I am not talented, I don't dare to be buried in my body. I just do ordinary things. Thoughts."

After hearing this, Han Shizhong was in awe of Yue Fei. Although he had heard of Yue Fei's name, he only thought that he was a brave general and that he had a great reputation thanks to Zongze's shadow.But today, when I heard what he said, every word was sincere and his loyalty was beyond words. Only then did I realize that there are no dishonest people under the great reputation.So he said: "It's Han who is being abrupt. Brother Pengju, don't blame me. If you have any good words, Han is all ears."

Yue Fei smiled and said: "It's not really good advice. It's just that I have doubts in my heart, so I asked the general for advice. I want to ask the general about something, what is loyalty?"

Although Han Shizhong was puzzled, he still replied seriously: "The Master said: 'The king entrusts his ministers with courtesy, and the ministers serve the king with loyalty', so being loyal to the king and not having any second thoughts is called loyalty. The Master also said: "The so-called righteousness of a gentleman means that both the noble and the humble have something to do with the world." This is why a gentleman is thrifty in order to seek service and benevolence, and trustworthy and yielding in order to seek service and etiquette. Surrender to the virtuous, humble yourself but respect others, be careful but fear righteousness, seek to serve the king, be self-righteous, and not be self-righteous, so as to obey the destiny of heaven.' This is called righteousness."

After hearing this, Yue Fei smiled slightly and said: "The general has a very high opinion, but I have other opinions. It's just that there are some sins in it. Please don't blame me, general. If you don't like it, you can take the little brother down and hold him accountable."

After hearing this, Han Shizhong frowned, but then said: "Today you and I are the only ones who have committed a crime. Han just ignored it, so please speak out."

Yue Fei nodded and said: "Loyalty, respect, and dedication are called loyalty. We, as officials and generals, have the world in mind and do everything with dedication, then we are called loyal. If we serve the king, we will do the king's way, and we will be loyal to the best of our thoughts." , think back and make amends for your mistakes. You will accept the beauty and save the evil. Rather than being loyal to the king without any dissatisfaction, this is small loyalty. Only by caring about the world and doing your best for the welfare of the people is great loyalty."

"Righteousness means propriety. A gentleman refers to righteousness, and a villain refers to benefit. The so-called righteousness and benefit are as simple as beginning and end. A gentleman sees that this thing should be like this, but that thing should be like that, but when he decides what is appropriate and does it, then What's the disadvantage? It's because the gentleman's mind is clear and clear, and he sees the righteousness clearly. Therefore, it is righteousness to do what is appropriate for the time in view of the general trend of the world."

After hearing what Yue Fei said, Han Shizhong felt as if he was struck by lightning. He had always boasted of his loyalty, but he had never thought so deeply about these two words. What Yue Fei said was very touching, so he remained silent for a long time.

Yue Fei almost scratched his head and quoted the classics to utter this passage of loyalty. Even the principles discussed by Zhu Xi, who was not yet born, were used. Naturally, he wanted to give Han Shizhong a heads-up and make him reflect.So I didn't say anything, just to see how Han Shizhong was doing.

After a long time, Han Shizhong stood up slowly, bowed deeply to Yue Fei, and said: "Han listened to what others said and thought you were a very strategic general, but he didn't expect that although you are still young, you have the world in mind. .With such high-level remarks, what can’t be done regardless of national politics and military affairs? Han feels ashamed."

Yue Fei supported Han Shizhong and said with a smile: "My little brother said nonsense, but it made General Han laugh. What I want in my heart is nothing more than my family and the country. I just can't bear the collapse of the mountains and rivers and the suffering of all the people, so I have something in my heart. Fan Wenzhenggong once said He said: "If you live high in a temple, you worry about the people; if you live far away from the rivers and lakes, you worry about your ruler." This is a lofty statement, but my younger brother believes that no matter whether you live high in a temple or far away from the rivers and lakes, you must care about the people of the world. I am worried about his king, but I am actually worried about his unkindness and difficulty in governing the people. What do you think, general?"

Han Shizhong nodded and said: "That's exactly what he said. On that day, Han had submitted a petition to the Holy Emperor, asking him to move the capital to Chang'an and send troops to take over the land of the two rivers to level the Central Plains. However, he was rejected by the Holy One and followed the advice of Huang and Wang. At that time, Han was worried about the Central Plains, but now that he has been fighting here for many years, he feels that his worries are correct."

Yue Fei nodded and said: "Now the Holy Emperor is no longer the King of Kang. He blindly appoints treacherous ministers and banishes loyal and good people, so that Hedong has not been restored, and all the places in Hebei are in danger. Now I am touring Yangzhou. According to my opinion, the next places are Zhenjiang and Lin'an. . By then, the land north of the Yangtze River will all belong to the Jin people."

When Han Shizhong heard this, he was shocked and said: "Why is this? Now Guanzhong has not been lost. There are still adults staying here in the capital. Heroes and martyrs from both rivers have gathered here. There are millions of people. As long as they are placed properly, how dare the Jin people Come? How can you say that the land north of Jiangbei belongs to the golden people?"

Yue Fei shook his head and said: "General, can't you still understand? At that time, Prime Minister Li made a ten-point discussion and said: 'Since ancient times, when the master of Zhongxing started in the northwest, it was enough to occupy the Central Plains and create the southeast; if it started in the southeast, it could not be restored. The Central Plains has the northwest. All the best soldiers and horses in the world are in the northwest. Once the Central Plains is abandoned, the Jin people will take advantage of the opportunity to disturb the interior; thieves will also swarm up and cause chaos across the states. Although Your Majesty wants to return the palace, It cannot be obtained. In the south of the Yangtze River, where the military is flourishing, there are high mountains and mountains that can be controlled, wide cities and plains for garrisoning troops; it is adjacent to Shaanxi to the west, where soldiers can be summoned; it reaches the Yangtze River and Huaihe River in the east, where it can transport grain and millet; it is connected to Jinghu and Hunan in the south. We can collect treasures from Bashu; we can send rescuers to the three capitals to the north. It is tentatively proposed to stay in Zhi, but then return to Biandu, but there is no plan for this. Now we can take a boat down the river to the southeast. It is very safe and convenient, and we are afraid of losing the first place. In the Central Plains, the southeast cannot be guaranteed to be safe. Even if you want to retreat to a corner, it is not easy to get it.' It is a pity that the Holy Emperor did not use Li Gang and insisted on favoring the south. Looking at the current situation, isn't it in line with what Li Xiang said? The land in Guanzhong has not been lost, just because Summer is about to come, and the Jin people cannot bear the scorching heat, so they retreat. When autumn and winter come, the bows and horses will be strong, and they will surely make a comeback. How can they stop it then? In the land of the capital, there is no danger when the teacher is there, but in the next year Old man, how much can we support? One day when my mentor is gone, who will be able to defend the capital? When the Jin people move south in large numbers, even the Yangtze River will be difficult to hold on to, and the Holy Master will have no choice but to flee all the way to the sea."

Han Shizhong frowned after hearing this, and after a while he replied: "If you hadn't been a left-behind disciple of Zong and listened to your loyal words, I would have treated you as a Jin spy and persuaded you to surrender to me."

Yue Fei smiled and said: "I am a Han Chinese, how dare I forget my ancestors? I have only one ambition in this life, which is to expel the Tartars and return my old lands! No matter how many swords and axes are thrown at me, I can't change my ambition. What is happening now , just describing the general trend for the general."

Han Shizhong said: "What a great person to drive out the Tartars and return my old land and mountains! Pengju has such ambitions. Han will offer you a drink. But I don't have any wine, so I will use tea instead of wine. Please drink this cup!" After that, he put the bowl in the bowl. I drank the tea in one gulp and asked a question.
