Chapter 616 Mouth Cannon

   After Ma Di fell ill, Zhuge Liang released him from prison and arranged him in a wing in the county mansion, not too far from the room where Feng Yong was tortured.

  Feng Yong lay on the soft couch and was carried into Ma Di's ward.

   Seeing Ma Di on the sickbed, Feng Yong was slightly startled.

  Although he was mentally prepared, Ma Di's current appearance was beyond his expectation.

   With a sallow face and dull eyes, lying there, like a breathing mummy, it doesn’t look alive at all—there’s nothing worse than death in the heart, and most people who have no motivation to continue living look like this.

   "I haven't seen you for more than ten days, I didn't expect you to become like this!"

   Feng Yong exclaimed.

  Hearing the voice that will never be forgotten until death, the motionless Ma Di suddenly turned his head, seeing Feng Yong lying on the soft couch, an expressionless look flashed in his eyes, and then dimmed again.

  I saw him open his mouth, make two "ho ho" throats, and spit out a few words, "Where is the king?"

   I guess it's been too long since I haven't spoken, these words are a bit vague.

   "Come and see you."

   "What's so good about a dying person? A certain face is ashamed, and I dare not see the lord, please come back, lord."

  Ma Di turned his head away, not daring to face Feng Yong.

Feng Yong was furious when he saw his appearance, "You think I want to come to see you? Now everyone says that you are sick because of my humiliation. In a fit of anger, the prime minister punished you. My army stick, and let me come here by myself, let you see how embarrassed I am."

   "Have you been punished?"

   "If I'm not punished, why can't I stand up on my stomach?"

  Feng Yong said angrily.

   Ma Su let out a long sigh, and then turned his head, "It's really disturbing that a certain person has been involved in the crime of death, but the prince is involved."

  Feng Yong sneered, "What does it matter to me whether you are safe or not? I am here this time just to ask you a few words."

   "Excuse me, my lord."

   "Is it really because of me that you look like this?"

   "No. In fact, it's someone's own fault."

   "Then do you hate me?"

  When Ma Su heard this, he glanced at Feng Yong with complicated eyes, moved his lips, and after a long while, he whispered, "No."

"You have a big heart." Feng Yong chuckled, his eyes full of sarcasm, "Although I beat you up in Jieting, to tell you the truth, you don't hate me, but I still have anger in my heart. Can't let go."

   "I hit you not only because of the vain sacrifice of the soldiers, but also because I can't understand your stupidity."

  When Ma Di heard this, a sick blush appeared on his face, and he suddenly coughed violently.

   Xiang Lang, who had been outside the house, rushed in, stroked Ma Di's back, and said to Feng Yong, "Why do you deceive people so much?"

Feng Yong ignored Xiang Lang, and continued to say to Ma Di, "Since you claim to have read military books and want to show what you have learned, let me ask you, since you led the army, have you ever personally trained soldiers?" ?”

   "Have you ever inspected the barracks every day? Have you ever eaten the daily food of soldiers? Do you know how the morale of the army is? Have you ever made a record plan for the attack of thieves?"

   Ma Di only coughed, but did not answer Feng Yong's words.

   "Most of them are warriors in the army. Even those who are like the prime minister will cross Lu in May, go deep into the barren, and experience the miasma in Nanzhong with the soldiers."

"Han Xin, Marquis of Huaiyin, is he powerful enough? But first he was hated by the wife of the pavilion chief, and then he was given food by the old woman, and then he was humiliated by his crotch. I can worship the general."

   "Even Emperor Guangwu had the dilemma of riding a bull into battle, and the humiliation of having to plead guilty to the enemy when his elder brother was killed for no reason. If Emperor Guangwu could not bear the humiliation, how could the rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty come about?"

   "You came from a prominent family in Xiangyang, you have little reputation, and you claim to be proficient in the art of war. You can lead an army with the attention of the prime minister. How much higher is your starting point than them? I didn't expect that you would act improperly when you were in battle."

   "Losing Lueyang, defeating Jieting, almost ruined the Northern Expedition once, and after setbacks, he was unable to get seriously ill. It seems ashamed, but in fact he is just a coward who wants to escape the blame of the world!"

"The pen of history is like a knife. Do you think that your actions will be forgiven by the history books because of your evasion? No! If you really get depressed like this, those who come after you will only laugh at you for being just another talker. "

"Official Lianpo worships Shangqing, and he can still take the blame. The king of Chu Zhuang knows his mistakes and can correct them, so he can have the career of the Five Hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period. Although you have made big mistakes now, you are indeed talented. If you can realize your shame and be brave, I want to come There will be some achievements, when the world will only praise your beauty, how can it destroy your shortcomings?"

  Scholars of the former Han Dynasty could speak well and kill with swords.

  In the early post-Han period, although the emphasis on Confucianism led to a slight suppression of martial arts, the six arts of a gentleman are always indispensable.

   It's just that the further back, the ethos of the upper class who valued Confucianism and despised martial arts became more and more obvious.

   Cui Zhouping, one of Zhuge Liang's "Four Friends", whose father Cui Lie was the Taiwei of the Han Dynasty.

  At that time, Cui Zhouping angered Cui Lie, was chased and beaten by Cui Lie, and called Cui Zhouping a "dead soldier". It can be seen from this that at the end of the Later Han Dynasty, the status of soldiers had begun to decline.

  Up to now, Confucian generals are popular with feather fan scarves, and there are already traces of idle talk in the Wei and Jin Dynasties in the original history.

   Ma Su has somewhat caught some of this bad atmosphere.

  Feng Yong likes to see this kind of ethos in the enemy, but he hates this kind of ethos on his side.

  So he beat Ma Di, maybe he didn't have the intention to suppress this kind of atmosphere-I can't control so much, but I must at least control what I can control.

  Feng Yongbo babbled, no matter how the two of them reacted, he immediately stood up by himself and moved out step by step.

  Leaving behind him was Xiang Lang who was dumbfounded, and Ma Di who stopped coughing at some point and stared blankly at the back of the man who walked out in a ridiculous posture.

  Seeing that Feng Yong was about to disappear at the door, Ma Su let out a long sigh of relief, sat up alone, and silently bowed deeply to Feng Yong's back.

Seeing Ma Su like this, Xiang Lang was overjoyed, knowing that most of his knots had been resolved, he hurriedly chased him out, supported Feng Yong, and said in a low voice, "General Feng's words are really enlightening, the old man will definitely come to the door in the future Thanks."

  Feng Yong glanced behind him secretly, and then he smiled, "Xiang Changshi is an elder, so don't mention it again for thanking you."

   "But to be honest, Yong really has something he wants from Xiang Changshi. As long as Ma Di's illness can be cured, then Yongke will have the audacity to come to ask for help."

   Xiang Lang heard the words and sighed, "I have only been in contact with General Feng for half a day. This is the second time that this old man has been tricked by General Feng, right? General Feng's name of Xiaowenhe is really well-deserved."

   "Ouch, it hurts..."

   Feng Yong groaned.

   "As long as Xiaochang can really be cured, the old man will do what General Feng asks for."

   Xiang Lang looked at Feng Yong and said helplessly.

   "With Xiang Changshi's words, then Yong can rest assured."

   "The prime minister has arranged a residence for the general, the general should go back early to rest."

   "Oh, by the way, there is a medical officer in my camp. He is a famous doctor named Fan Qi. Please send a message to Chang Shi and ask him to come and show Ma Di."

  Fan Qi is Feng Yong's personal doctor, he is Fan A's grandson, and he is also the one with the best medical talent. After the First World War in Jieting, he was sent by Feng Yong to the army to treat the wounded.

   Besides, Feng Yong is really worried about letting others heal the injury on his butt.
