In the study

Professor Wang and Gu Jueye chatted for a few minutes, discussing Gu Jueye's academic progress.

For example, the X-cell body he created has been used in medical experiments and has successfully treated a liver cancer patient.

They then talked about Gu Jueye's research projects after returning to China.

Although Old Wang and Old Qin didn't get along, he had to admit that Old Qin had an outstanding grandson.

After chatting for a while, the Wang family's servant knocked on the door to remind Old Master Wang that lunch was ready.

Old Wang invited them to stay for dinner, but Gu Jueye declined, saying he had to go home to have dinner with Old Qin.

"Then I won't keep you any longer." Old Wang didn't try to persuade you to stay any longer.

Gu Jueye is so busy, and he finally managed to come and visit his grandfather. If he stays here for a meal, wouldn't Old Man Qin come over immediately?

After leaving Wang Lao's study, Qin Jingwen was not seen in the living room.

Gu Jueye asked the Wang family members who were busy in the living room, and they said they saw Qin Jingwen leave twenty minutes ago.

"Jingwen has probably gone back first. Let's go."

Bai Qianmo nodded and left the Wang family with Gu Jueye.

It's only a distance of about fifty meters from the Wang family's house to the Qin family's house, but the two of them walked slowly, holding hands and strolling leisurely.

"Why did Old Wang take you to the Wang Family Ancestral Hall?"

Bai Qianmo was lost in thought when she heard Gu Jueye's question. She stopped and turned to look at Gu Jueye.

"There is actually a memorial tablet for Xu Jin'en enshrined in the Wang family ancestral hall. Grandpa Wang calls her Ancestral Grandmother and says that she is the benefactor of the Wang family. I am becoming more and more curious about this Xu Jin'en. What kind of woman was she?"

Gu Jueye pondered for a moment, then murmured softly, "The Wang family's benefactor?"

“When I was a child, I remember my grandfather saying that the Wang family ancestors were originally bandits in the mountains. Later, they were incorporated into a warlord's army. Then, the Wang family met a benefactor and moved from the south to Beiping (Beijing) at that time. They quickly rose to prominence. On the eve of the founding of the new country, the Wang family army joined the new army and participated in several battles. They won all of them and never lost a battle. It is strange that the Wang family army was originally looked down upon by many people, who called them bandits. But this inconspicuous army repeatedly made great achievements. Wang Zhenshan was also promoted very quickly. Before long, he became the commander-in-chief of the new army. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he became one of the famous twenty-eight generals.”

At this point, Bai Qianmo asked curiously, "So, Wang Zhenshan must be a remarkable person who is well-versed in military strategy and knows how to deploy troops?"

It's quite surprising that a bandit could possess such profound knowledge.

Those who become bandits are usually driven to desperation by poverty and have nowhere else to turn, which forces them to eventually become outlaws.

In that era of war, very few of the bandits were literate.

“Wang Zhenshan is an orphan. His parents died early, and he was raised by his uncle. His uncle had six children and made a living by doing hard labor for landlords. It was difficult to even make ends meet, let alone send them to school.”

Bai Qianmo was puzzled. If Wang Zhenshan was just an illiterate brute, how could he be invincible? Did he rely on incredible luck?

This is clearly illogical.

Gu Jueye took Bai Qianmo's hand and walked to a nearby wooden chair to sit down. He put his arm around Bai Qianmo's waist and let her sit on his lap, wrapping her tightly in his coat.

Bai Qianmo wrapped her arms around Gu Jueye's neck, pressing her against his warm chest, and immediately felt a warm sensation all over her body.

"If Wang Zhenshan is illiterate, he naturally wouldn't understand military strategy, unless he's a genius."

Gu Jueye said, "Where in this world are there so many geniuses? If he were a genius, he wouldn't have gone up the mountain to become a bandit. The changes in the Wang family started when he moved his whole family north."

A strange feeling flickered in Bai Qianmo's heart: "You mean, he encountered a master who gave him guidance?"

Gu Jueye smiled and reached out to ruffle Bai Qianmo's long hair: "After Wang Zhenshan came to the capital from the south, he joined the forces of a powerful warlord who controlled the area of ​​Beiping at that time. I don't know what Wang Zhenshan went through there. From then on, he began to recruit soldiers and expand his power, and soon he had his own Wang Family Army."

Subsequently, the warlord leader appeared to have been assassinated, and his fate was unknown. With the group leaderless, the warlord soldiers quickly fled to various other warlords, both large and small.

But Wang Zhenshan didn't rush to leave. He stayed in Beiping for another three years. After that, he reorganized the Wang Family Army and a troop of elite soldiers left behind by the warlord leaders, and joined the new army.

“The warlord leader that Wang Zhenshan sought refuge with must be his benefactor. The leader’s fate is unknown and his whereabouts are unknown. He stayed in Beiping for three years to hold the line, presumably waiting for the leader to return. If the leader does not return, then these three years can be considered as mourning. Although Wang Zhenshan is a military general, he must be a man of loyalty and righteousness.”

Gu Jueye nodded: "Although I have never met Wang Zhenshan, I grew up here and have heard most of the stories of those old generals. Wang Zhenshan has a nickname, 'White Tiger of Nanshan,' which means that his personality is like a tiger. In reality, he is a very insightful person. I heard that before he died, he left three brocade pouches for the Wang family, specifying three times to open them. There are rumors that it was these three brocade pouches that allowed the Wang family to escape two major calamities and also to gain the upper hand in the opening-up policy. Now, the Wang family seems to have no real power, but their private businesses are spread across various industries, big and small."
