Whale Falls and Becomes a God

Chapter 70 The Tyrant is Evil
"hero?"

Du Fuwei looked at Xiao Ying, quite confused, mainly because he didn't know how Xiao Ying defined "hero"!

Anyone who is extraordinary, brave, heroic, etc. can be called a hero!

Not to mention far away, just take Jiangdu as an example.

Empress Xiao, Prince Jingwu Xiao Ying and the Sui army, who expelled the rebels, stabilized the chaos and restored prosperity, were heroes to the people of Jiangdu who were in dire straits and whose lives were in danger in the past few days!
Although Du Fuwei was a rebel king, he was also a hero to many people in Jianghuai!

Xiao Ying understood and quickly added, "To be precise, they should be called heroes! For example, local rebel kings, leaders of various factions, and so on!"

"Oh? Then just think of it yourself, brother. If there are any mistakes, I'm sorry to make you laugh!"

Du Fuwei suddenly responded, thought for a moment, and then said without hiding his clumsiness:
"In my humble opinion, the heroes of today are Emperor Li Yuan of the Divine Capital, King Wang Shichong of the Demonic Capital, the leader of the Wagang, Zhai Rang, the King of Xia, Dou Jiande, the King of Dingyang, Liu Wuzhou, the King of Zhishi, and several others..."

"As for the others... although there are said to be thirty-six rebel kings and seventy-two rebels in the world today, most of them are unable to achieve anything and are only temporarily in the spotlight. They either rise to power by chance, or... have serious character flaws, lack talent and moral integrity, or are unpopular..."

……

Perhaps it was because he felt Xiao Ying's recognition, appreciation and sincerity, that Du Fuwei, who was not a talkative person, spoke eloquently and seemed to be ready to make a grand speech!
Everyone in Jianghuai was quite surprised. It seemed that they had just met Du Fuwei and he was so eloquent. It felt like they had known each other for a long time and that a true friend was hard to find.

Xiao Ying kept nodding, occasionally interjecting with a few comments.

Although Xiao Ying had memories of his past life and was quite familiar with the heroes of this world, he was ultimately inferior to the local tyrant Du Fuwei. He was the first to start the uprising, traveled extensively, and controlled a tremendous power. Naturally, his intelligence and insights were extraordinary!
"Zhai Rang, the leader of Wagang?"

After listening to Du Fuwei's long talk, Xiao Ying quickly digested it and suddenly interrupted to ask.

This is one of the main reasons why Xiao Ying humbly asked for advice, so that he could better understand the current situation.

For example, the Wagang Army, which is recognized as the strongest rebel army, is still led by Zhai Rang. This means that Li Mi has not yet emerged and risen, or at least has not yet taken control of the Wagang Army, which is full of talented people and brave generals. Xiao Ying is somewhat tempted, and there is plenty of room for planning!
Du Fuwei nodded and replied, "Yes! This man was originally a legal officer in Dongjun. When he was about to be executed for his crimes, he was saved by his brothers. He fled to Wagang and established the Wagang Stronghold. He has many followers and is now a rebel king. Even I dare not underestimate him!"

"That's right! The Wagang Army has many talented people and brave generals! They should not be underestimated!" Xiao Ying nodded in agreement!

"However, Zhai Rang is quite magnanimous, generous, selfless, and brave in battle. I admire him very much. However, precisely because of this, I am not optimistic about him. In my opinion, Zhai Rang is a hero, but not a great leader. I am afraid that the Wagang Army will not last long and will inevitably change!"

Du Fuwei frowned and thought for a while, then changed his tone and sighed!

"Brother, you have a keen eye, unique insights, and a deep understanding of people's hearts! I admire you!"

Xiao Ying was stunned for a moment, and then gave a thumbs up in surprise and admiration!
Xiao Ying also knew that Wagang would undergo a major change, but this knowledge came from a previous life, a form of hindsight. Du Fuwei, on the other hand, relied entirely on intelligence analysis, a huge difference!
"Haha... I'm so grateful that you can see my sincerity!"

Du Fuwei looked at Xiao Ying deeply, laughed heartily, raised his glass to invite her, and said proudly in a loud voice without any modesty!

Xiao Ying smiled and followed suit, raising his cup. Then he heard Du Fuwei sigh:

"The Wagang Army does have many brave generals, and countless heroes of the green forest are like-minded, and most of them also obey Zhai Rang. However, people's hearts are mixed. Famous Wagang generals such as Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shiji are not bad. They are quite righteous and will not easily rebel. But..."

Having said this, Du Fuwei paused, hesitated, and continued:

"It's said that a genius recently defected to Wagang. His name is Li Mi. He is highly valued and trusted by Zhai Rang, and is respected by the Wagang soldiers and civilians! He was able to unify the army and form the Pushan Public Camp. This person is not from the Green Forest, nor has he ever been in the martial arts world. He comes from a wealthy aristocratic family, and is incompatible with the Wagang culture..."

"There can't be two tigers in one mountain! Let alone tigers of different species! Just look at how quickly Li Mi rose to prominence, and how highly he's respected by everyone in Wagang. You can tell he's incredibly ambitious and calculating. Poor Zhai Rang, he's still unaware..."

"If there's any change in Wagang, it must be because of this person!" "Oh?"

After listening to Du Fuwei finish speaking in one breath, Xiao Ying responded with a strange look in his eyes.

"Those who are loyal are usually butchers, and those who are unfaithful are usually scholars!"

Du Fuwei sighed with envy and self-mockery, paused, and then quickly explained, fearing that Xiao Ying might misunderstand him:

"The outlaws and the nobility are two incompatible worlds! Most of the people in Wagang are not well educated, and suddenly here comes a man of extraordinary talent and profound learning, a man with great scheming and ambition, and is quickly elevated to the level of a leader. Without the absolute suppression of a huge gap, it would be strange if they could remain calm..."

"Brother!"

Xiao Ying didn't know what to say, so he could only give a thumbs up again.

Du Fuwei was poor when he was young and never received intensive education, yet he had his own unique insights, which were always to the point and he saw things more clearly than most people in the world!

The Jianghuai Army also had many talented people with amazing knowledge, but Du Fuwei loved talents but did not indulge or blindly indulge them. This was the difference!

"Where are the other heroes..."

"The Tang Emperor is from the Li clan, a member of the royal family and a powerful clan. He also occupies the Divine Capital. He is bound to achieve great things..."

"Prince Zheng, Wang Shichong, holds a high position of power and authority, and occupies the Magic City..."

"Xia Wang Dou Jiande... Ding Wang Liu Wuzhou... Zhishi Wang Bo..."

Xiao Ying humbly asked for advice, and Du Fuwei did not hide his shortcomings and spoke freely and analyzed carefully.

In Xiao Ying's opinion, apart from his misunderstanding of Zhishi Wang and Wang Bo, Du Fuwei's analysis and evaluation were basically correct.

Du Fuwei was not wrong about Wang Bo. Who would have known that after Wang Bo came to power, his temperament would change drastically as if he were possessed by a ghost, as if he had become a different person. This is a bit like the Sui Emperor Yang Guang who failed to break through!
"So, in my opinion, what qualities does one need to possess to become a great hero?"

The two of them had a great conversation and forgot the passage of time. Xiao Ying became more and more impressed and asked for advice sincerely!

"Quality of a warlord?"

Du Fuwei analyzed and evaluated many heroes, but he didn't mention himself. Xiao Ying didn't ask, but when he suddenly heard Xiao Ying ask this, he was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile:
"My brother summed it up in just sixteen words... opportunistic, domineering, suspicious, and capricious!"

"what?"

Xiao Ying was stunned, and asked in great surprise, "Brother, are you sure this isn't an insult? Isn't this reserved for villains?"

"Haha... Bro, do you think a good person can become a hero? Which rebel king isn't a villain?"

Du Fuwei laughed heartily and asked jokingly, then shook his head and sighed:
"Looking at the entire world, the only leader of a force who isn't a rebel king is Jiangdu... that is, Empress Xiao! Or... Brother Xiao? Is Brother Xiao a good person?"

"This..." Xiao Ying was speechless!
