Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 272
"Wang Zhengzhe, a native of Qi County in Qingzhou, was 16 years old when he first started. His parents and grandparents were all farmers (doubtful). The three generations of politics can be verified as farming in Zhao County."

"In the winter and October of the third year of Chuping, he surrendered and joined the army. He was the chief of the Yanzhou army. In the autumn of the first year of Xingping, Cao Song resigned and died in Xuzhou. Cao Cao's army was raised to avenge his relatives and enemies, and Wang Zheng took the opportunity to attack Xiangben. A crowd was gathered in Zhao County to start an incident, and he said: "The way of heaven is selfless, I will be the general of Tiangong! "The soldiers all said: "It is feasible, and I am willing to follow the dead ear. "

"Yu Shizheng then drew his sword and beheaded the guards. The camp was shocked, but there was a captain named Gong Xu who was leading the army to quell the chaos. Zheng alone killed dozens of people. The entire army was intimidated, and no one dared to rise."

"In the winter of the first year of Xingping, at that time, Wang Zheng took tens of thousands of people to the north, and Xu He, commander of the Yellow Turban Canal, raised his troops to follow Yan. There were countless bandits, and hundreds of thousands of refugees were sent to Linzi."

"In the spring of the second year of Xingping, Wang Zheng had broken the five capitals of the Han Dynasty. His power shocked Qingzhou and he was famous among the princes. He led [-] generals and soldiers, and tens of thousands of refugees marched eastward on ice. After arriving in Langya, he broke through five counties and went down to Kaiyang. Afterwards, the First World War will determine the "Pengcheng"

"Wen Wenchou has mobilized the soldiers of Hebei, smashed its throat, Yunting, and wanted to attack Kaiyang, so he used Jin Yu to deceive the enemy. Zheng led cavalry to surround him on all sides, attacked him from the back, and shot ten thousand crossbows. Kill, the earth ghost pierces the heart and dies"

On the road paved with bluestone slabs, a carriage was galloping along the county government road in Langya County with a loud hoofbeat. At a glance, the status of the passengers in the car is distinguished.

At this moment, Wang Rong, the current Patriarch of the Langya Wang Clan, put his palms together in his sleeves and sat upright, silently listening to his son chanting all kinds of information about a certain Zhuzi so far, with a dignified expression.

In fact, Wu Sheng led his troops to attack Langya.
No, to be precise, it should be from the day Wang Rong learned that Kaiyang was captured by the Yellow Turban Bandits, he had already sent countless people to inquire about this army and their young man Qu Shuai. The news, he had read it countless times.

As a famous scholar in the Eastern Han Dynasty and a master of Confucian classics, Wang Rong's memory is not bad. Speaking of it, these news are not memorized, but he is familiar with them. At this moment, asking his son Wang Xiang to recite it is nothing more than an inexplicable panic in his heart, which makes him always want to see Wang Zheng again. Before, try harder to understand the person.

"Father, don't worry too much." The future Taiwei Cao Wei, Wang Xiang, the teacher of Gaogui Township Duke Cao Mao, is just a teenager at this time: "The person who assassinated and poisoned is a collateral descendant of the Yan family. More than a hundred members of the family have been imprisoned, so what does it have to do with my Wang family?"

Although he is the eldest son of the Wang family, his biological mother died young and his stepmother Zhu always blamed him in front of his father. As a result, Wang Xiang was very young, but he had tasted the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and he was quite precocious.

So when meeting Wang Zheng this time, Wang Rong thought twice and decided to take him with him.

"Xiu Zheng (Wang Xiang, courtesy name Xiuzheng) is right!" On the other side, Wang Rong's younger brother Wang Dian slapped his thigh and nodded repeatedly: "Even if the city gate catches fire and the fish in the pond are destroyed, it will never burn our family." what."

"My family and his Yan family just live in the same place, and even the three generations of each other have no in-laws. If you want to implicate this son, you have to go to the Sun's family."

"Didn't the daughter of his grandson's family become the daughter-in-law of the Yan family the year before last?"

"It's not that simple." Wang Rong shook his head, his expression becoming more serious. "Don't you forget that this Yan Fu came here with Wu Sheng's army, so it can be seen that this son has been in the bandit army for a long time."

"If you really want to poison that Li Zi, why didn't you do it sooner rather than later, and waited for him to come to Wulangya before attacking him?"

"What does Big Brother mean?" Wang Dian frowned, "It's because Yan Fu came to Langya that he came up with the idea of ​​killing that thief?"

"Could it be?" Seemingly thinking of something, Wang Dian gasped, and said in a low voice, "Is it really Yan who gave the instructions?"

"How is that possible!" Wang Rong snorted coldly, "Since the first day the bandits entered the city, which one of us big households has not been watched every day? , just to bring trouble on oneself, that old Yantou can only do it unless his heart is covered with phlegm!"

"But I met him the day before yesterday, but I didn't notice anything unusual."

"Who gave the instructions?"

"I don't know." Wang Rong was also puzzled: "Anyway, this matter is a bit weird."

"The weirdest" Wang Rong said: "As Li Ze (Wang Dian, word Li Ze) said, no matter whether this matter was instructed by Yan family or not, it shouldn't involve my family."

"Then Wu Sheng, why did you send someone to recruit me to enter the mansion today?" Wang Rong frowned and said, "I also specifically mentioned that I would bring my direct descendants with me."

"Father." At this time, Wang Xiang couldn't help but said: "We only know that Wang Zheng was poisoned, but we don't know whether Yan Fu succeeded or not?"

"If it's a thief."

Under Wang Rong's suddenly cold eyes, Wang Xiang changed his words in time: "If it is General Tiangong, then it is really Gaodi who has a spirit, and the heavens are blessed."

"If it's the commander-in-chief Bin Tian, ​​the death of such a teacher would be the result of the three armies." Wang Rong snorted coldly: "Fortunately, we haven't seen such a situation today."

"Father." Wang Xiangzheng was a little puzzled, but saw that his uncle Wang Dian had already interjected: "Xiu Zheng, but we all have to worship our ancestors and pray to gods, and pray that this Tiangong general is safe and sound."

"Wu Sheng has never been surprised since he entered Zhuwu County. Do you really think that he is harmless to humans and animals?"

Facing his nephew's surprised eyes, Wang Dian said seriously: "When the Yellow Turban Army entered the city that day, I leaned on the building and watched from a distance. I saw this son's small head but sharp face, and square forehead and leopard eyes. Do you know that this face represents what?"

Wang Xiang shook his head, expressing his ignorance.

"Small head and sharp face, the person with this face was recorded in the previous history book."

It seemed that the mention of this name made Wang Dian terrified, and he shivered involuntarily, and said slowly: "It is the former general of the Western Qin Dynasty, Tu Baiqi!"

"Uncle." Wang Xiang was stunned for a long time before he said, "How can these bandits in the head of Guizhou be compared with the state scholars like Lord Wu An?"

"In terms of ability and achievements, the two are not the same." Wang Dian shook his head and said, "I'm just telling you that this son is by no means a good man, but even more violent and vicious. If Wang Zheng really dies in my county ,I am afraid."

Although the words were not finished, Wang Xiang could already hear the unfinished meaning. What Wang Dian meant was that Wu Sheng would take the whole Langya County people to be buried with that Shuzi.

"No way, except for the day when Wu Sheng attacked the city, he hasn't done anything so far. Don't say that we are a big family, even ordinary people, and we haven't seen any violations."

Although he is precocious, he is still a young man who has not been tempered by the world. He couldn't help but look at his father, but he was also silent, obviously agreeing with Wang Dian's opinion.

"That's the key." Wang Rong said: "That reckless Wu Sheng is so peaceful, it's just to buy people's hearts, and it's obviously because of the king's order."

"It can be seen that although this Zhuzi came from a humble background, he is a person with some knowledge." Wang Rong said with emotion: "The more important thing is that he still knows what he knows. This son has extremely strict constraints on the army and generals under his command, and even more prestige, so he can respond to all calls, and he dare not refuse."

"Based on this alone, it is even better than some princes from famous families."

Both Wang Dian and Wang Xiang understood what Wang Rong meant.

In the troubled times, his Wang family also had plans to invest in one side. Xuzhou's neighbors Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao and Yangzhou Mu Yuan Shu were the targets of investigation.

It's just that the former was massacred in Xuzhou last year out of personal anger, and even dug graves for military resources, which really made the Wang family disgusted and despised, and they didn't want to join them.

Not to mention the latter.

Although Wang Rong's family refused to be appointed by the imperial court several times and never became an official, his father Wang Ren was once the governor of Qingzhou.

Yuan Shu seems to be in full swing now, like a raging fire cooking oil, but in troubled times, in Wang Rong's view, the combat effectiveness of the army is the most important.

As for the Yangzhou army, regardless of military discipline, military capacity, and even record, they are actually very average. Even as far as the first two are concerned, in Wang Rong's view, they are almost no different from most thieves.

How strong can such an army be in combat?
"Speaking of it," Wang Rong said with emotion: "If you only look at the army, I really appreciate this General Tiangong. Although he is a refugee, he has a good command of the army. Just wait and see."

He pointed out the window and said word by word: "There is a curtain separating them, and I feel that the swords and halberds are dense, and the military spirit is strict, like a willow."

"Indeed." Wang Dian nodded, "Although there was an arrangement to open the city gates that day, even so, nearly a thousand defenders couldn't hold it for even an hour. It's really a strong army, completely different from other yellow scarves."

"It's just this moment, and that moment." Wang Rong sighed: "This son came to Langya and was assassinated. I don't know how good or bad our trip will be."

Hearing this, Wang Dian's complexion also collapsed: "Young people are bound to be arrogant and arrogant, big brother, he will not blame my family, right?"

"Father, Uncle, please relax." Wang Xiang comforted, "General Tiangong can achieve his current achievements, although he is young, he must be very knowledgeable, it shouldn't be like this!"

"Oh, I hope so."

When the carriage stopped suddenly, the three of them knew that they had reached their destination, so they shut their mouths at the same time, and walked towards the familiar mansion with serious thoughts.

"Brother Shi Rong?"

Being half-accompanied and half-surveilled by a group of tiger and wolf masters into the lobby, Wang Rong saw at a glance the young master of the Yan family, Yan Yan, who is known as the 23rd descendant of Fusheng. These women, either have wet tears and look mournful, or are still crying.

From the Warring States period to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty for more than 22 years, the descendants of Yan Zi were not prosperous. From Yan Hui to the 23nd generation grandson Yan Liang were all recorded as single biography, and it was not until the [-]rd generation grandson Yan Yan broke the law and gave birth to two sons, namely Yan Fei and Yan Sheng .

Of course, no matter how famous the Fusheng is, it is finally impossible to cross the long river of time to resist the sharp edge of the army. So at this time, the Yan family is half kneeling on the ground, looking very embarrassed, no longer the graceful and luxurious, famous family of the past. tolerance.

But seeing this scene, Wang Rong felt relieved.

Even the Yan family hasn't been slaughtered, or even imprisoned, so naturally his Wang family is in no danger, right?
But, why don't you see Yan Liang, the head of the Yan family now?
Just as he was surprised, he saw that Wu Sheng had brought an old man out of the back hall, and when he saw Wang Rong's eyes lit up, he smiled and said: "The master of the Wang family is here too, just right, the general and the head of the Yan family have arrived It's settled, it's your turn, and follow me in."

Arranged?
This remark made Wang Rong's heart skip a beat, and he looked at Yan Liang again. Although on the surface he was neatly dressed and looked calm, it seemed that he had not suffered any torture this night, but his eyes were a little dim, and he was no longer as radiant as before. Thoughtful. `
"Master Wang." Seeing Wang Rong in a daze, Wu Sheng snorted coldly and yelled, "It's not good to keep the general waiting for too long."

"Forgive me, Major." The situation was stronger than others, and Wang Rong quickly cupped his hands: "It's my fault, please lead the way."

Just as he was about to step forward, Wu Sheng looked at Wang Dian and Wang Xiang again, and said, "His Yan family's incense is thin, and there is only one male. Is it the same for your Wang family?"

"Why are you three here?"

Wang Rong and his younger brother and son looked at each other, and answered bravely: "I have another son, two of my younger brothers, one of whom has not gone out yet, and the other is traveling far away and has not yet returned home."

"Is that so?" Wu Sheng glanced at the counselor at the side, saw him nodding slightly, and said, "That's all right, and come with me."

When passing through the corridor, although there were not many guards visible, the three of Wang Rong could still feel the ubiquitous eyes, each with vigilance and inquiry.

And when they were brought into the elegant room by Wu Sheng, in front of the gate, Wang Rong instinctively stopped, and adjusted his clothes again.

As soon as they entered the room, Wang Rong and the three looked to the right in unison. It seemed that the light of the entire elegant room was concentrated in this place, making the supposedly bright elegant room a bit gloomy.

There, there was a young man in a black silk robe sitting on the desk with his forehead in his hands, staring closely at a booklet, like a tiger dominating a dragon.

For some reason, the young man just frowned slightly at this time, which made the whole room feel inexplicably oppressed. For example, Wu Shengzhe held his breath and concentrated, and did not dare to take a breath. The cold wind kept blowing.

Is this the Tiangong General?

They looked at each other, and a thought sounded in their hearts at the same time: "The Lord of Armies is indeed extremely powerful!"

"Sit whatever you want, Master Wang, and the other two."

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Wang Zheng didn't raise his head, but waved his hands casually.

He's not putting on airs, it's enough to do it once. It's just a coincidence that just now, he just received a message from a messenger sent by Pan Zhang. A very familiar name appeared in the letter. It gave him some headaches.

Compared with this, the Wang family and the Yan family who were supposed to be the targets of Langya's trip, as well as the original business, negotiating with aristocratic families, suddenly became a bit insignificant.

It's really unstoppable
