Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 198: The Thief in Shanyang (Part 1)

In the evening of September 27th of the Xia Li, a group of people was speeding up the road from the lower palace to Chengxiang. A chariot of horses and horses was in front, more than a dozen squires were on the left and right, and the rest of the walkers were also moving fast.

This was Zhao Wuxi and his party. He originally planned to set off after the **** crowing in the early morning, but during the period, some information about the movements of the other Qing clan and Xiaozong came, and he needed to participate in the public discussion. So it was late in the afternoon before leaving the city.

At present, Zhao Yang is in good condition. Doctor Bian Que and Le Lingzi said that he is in a state of not waking up. Maybe tomorrow Zhao Wuxi will be able to witness his recovery when he returns.

Although the situation around the Xia Palace and Xinjiang was delicate, according to the careful repayment arranged by Fu Sou, there had never been a large-scale mobilization of more than 1,000 soldiers from Fan and Zhongxing's family. After learning about Zhao Yang's specific situation, Han's small movements also stopped. After all, the stability of the Zhao-Han alliance is the most important thing. It is said that Han Hu's persuasion is credited here.

As for the Wei family and the Zhi family, they got the news a little later, and by the time they responded, Zhao Yang might have woken up.

However, Zhao Wuxi still had a vague sense of insecurity. You must know that Fan Yang was in Chaoge now, and 80% of them had already heard the news of Zhao Yang's "or death", and even sent back instructions. If he took a risk, he would use the decisiveness he had when he harmed the Luan family decades ago, and lead the army to attack the Zhao family.

Therefore, if you don't go back to Chengxiang to arrange a pass, you will feel uneasy if you don't have a shirt.

When returning to Chengxiang this time, Zhao Wuxi only planned to stay overnight to inspect the road. After arranging defenses and preparations to transfer at any time, he would rush to the lower palace early tomorrow morning. Nonetheless. However, he still maintained his usual caution: Wang Sunqi was driving a military chariot with horses and horses, and there were two squires of light knights carrying horse bows and quivers on the side of the chariot. Led by Yu Xi.

For the rest of the light knights, Zhao Wuxi arranged for them to be ruled by Jia Ji. Staying in the lower palace, on the one hand, to protect Ji Ying and Le Lingzi, on the other hand, if there is any urgent matter, it is also a good way to return the letter. As for Zigong in Jiangshi, Yu Pian led someone to protect him. In case of chaos in the Jin state, Wu Xie did not want Zigong to lose.

Behind the chariot, there were more than a dozen famous villagers, most of whom were specially selected "dare to die". They wear light armor and carry short swords. These people were originally arranged by Zhao Wuxi in the residence of his lower palace, preparing for some kind of crisis, so that they would violently kill them, but everything was calm.

So they made the best of everything without a shirt, and let them follow them back and forth into their villages as squires. Although these fierce soldiers were fierce and vicious, they did not obey the discipline of military officials, but they were loyal to Zhao Wuxi.

Zhao Wuxi according to their character. Once you push the clothes and clothes, push the food and eat it, you can make it effective. Tian Ben, who caused trouble before, was punished by Zhao Wuxi. Also in it.

The road from the lower palace to Chengxiang was not an official road in the first place. From time to time the carriage would get bogged down in the mud and had to be pushed and shoved by the soldiers. so. Usually it only takes one and a half hours to travel, but now it takes two and a half hours to travel. If it's night, it's even slower.

Just walking with one foot deep and one shallow foot, when it was about to get dark, the group of people saw the uplifted hills of Chengxiang from a distance.

"Gentleman, there is Shanyang Pavilion in front of you!" Tian Ben walked all the way, pushing the cart hard for a while, and running ahead to clear the way, and then trotted over to report to Zhao Wuxi.

After a month of torture, and under the deterrence of Zhao Wuxi's new military law, he seemed to be a lot more honest. A few days ago, he was placed in the residence of the lower palace and was not allowed to go out, but Tian Ben was obedient and obedient until today.

But last time, Zhao Wuxi still felt a little prickly in his heart. Although he tried his best to help him get rid of his troubles, he didn't pay much attention to him recently. He just nodded slightly, but remembered another thing.

"I remember that this Shanyang Pavilion is the only way to go north to Jinyang. The pavilion here is named Cheng Tuan, the son of Cheng Wu. It is said that he has done a good job. These days, Dong Anyu has specially praised him. , saying that he is loyal to his duties, and can be of great use..."

If I remember correctly, the last time Zhong Xin and Shu Qi wanted to set fire to the village, it was Cheng Tuan, who was responsible for helping Cheng Wu negotiate with the arranged Anzi and tip off Wu Xie, which was also considered a credit. .

"I thought he had some talents before, and his vision was much higher than that of his genius father. A mere pavilion is indeed overkill..."

Therefore, under normal circumstances, Zhao Wuxi, who would let his subordinates drive past the pavilion without stopping, instructed: "Anyway, Chengxiang is not far away, and it will be there in half an hour, so let's take a rest at Shanyang Pavilion first. Now, ask the pavilion for a drink!"

In fact, even if Zhao Wuxi didn't want to enter Shanyang Pavilion to see him, the other party would not let him go easily. After hearing the sound of chariots and horses, the pavilion chief of Shanyang Pavilion had long been slung over ropes, holding a slip of paper, and stood in the middle of the road with pavilion father and begging thieves, and stretched out his hand to block the comers.

It was the first time Tian Ben saw someone dare to stop the gentleman's car, and he was so angry that he was going to go over to grab Cheng Tuan and beat him, but Zhao Wuqi stopped him.

After seeing Zhao Wuxi and his talisman for sure, Cheng Tuan bowed in the muddy water and said, "The villain is guilty of blocking the gentleman's car."

"You follow the law, what's the crime?"

Zhao Wuxi was very satisfied with his performance and smiled at it.

He thought to himself that in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty in later generations, there was a Xiliu Camp near Chang'an, and the emperor drove a car to patrol, but was stopped by the battalion officer according to the "military law, not to enter the military camp at night". Afterwards, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty appreciated Zhou Yafu's method of governing the army and called him the "true general", so he entrusted him with the important task.

Now, he actually has a Shanyang pavilion chief who made a similar move. Not only Dong Anyu, a doctor in Jinyang, was stopped, but if he strictly followed the pavilion decree that he had set, if he did not bring a talisman tonight, he would be the same. stopped by him.

"Cheng Ting Chang can be said to be the 'true Ting Chang' of this gentleman. If he sees a noble person driving a car, he will treat the law as a child's play, then I will punish you heavily!"

So when he walked into the pavilion to rest, Wu Xie praised Cheng Tuan a few words, secretly giving birth to the idea that if he could survive this crisis, he would promote this person to his side. In the future, maybe it can be used as a new right-hand man.

But he also has doubts, so come on. In their own power, is the power of the Cheng clan too great? The three elders of the township become witches. While taking advantage of it, Zhao Wuxi was still urging him to guard against it. This person has eyesight and dares to gamble on his future, but he is also a villain who sees the wind.

"Ah! Help!"

He was thinking about it when he heard a scream from outside the pavilion.

"What's going on!" Tian Ben was sitting on the ground with the water in the pot, eating the fried dry corn, and jumped up immediately after hearing the sound. He pulled out the dagger from his waist.

Cheng Tuan hurriedly said, "It's Father Ting and the beggar who went to the well to fetch water."

Zhao Wuxi was shocked. These days, his nerves were already tense, and he was always on the lookout for possible sudden changes. Who would have thought it would happen at this moment, at this moment.

He immediately ordered: "Exit the firewood and candles in the house! Send someone out to see what happened!"

Cheng Tuan did as he did, and then he also took the copper and cut it in his hand, and Tian Ben was on the left and right, sandwiching Zhao Wusi. The cat walked out of the pavilion with a waist.

The brave soldiers and light knights outside the pavilion were on guard from all sides. After hearing the sound, they had already gathered together at the call of Wang Sunqi and Yu Xi. They surrounded the pavilion into a semicircle, with swords and bows in their hands. Once someone dares to come and offend, they will be killed on the spot!

But it was already half dark outside, and the night wind was gloomy. In the direction of the well, a figure stumbled over. When they got close, everyone took a look. It was Father Ting who was begging for thieves and went with him to fetch water. But disappeared.

Qiu Thief was already in a state of embarrassment. He covered his stomach with one hand, the crimson blood was flowing out, and he stretched out one hand weakly to the crowd, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Gentleman, Chief Pavilion! There are thieves..."

Bang!

Halfway through the words, Qiu Thief was shattered by a stone that roared from behind him!

"Hit! Fox hit!"

A few dozen steps away from the pavilion, the group of thieves surrounding the leader let out a low cheer.

The lean Rong Chief Fox Baby shook the skins and ropes in his hands with satisfaction. In this way, two people have been killed, which is a good start for today.

This afternoon, he gathered a group of thieves in the valley at the southern end of Luliang Mountain. According to the usual power on the mountain, he initially divided the ranks of the dead. Later, under the leadership of the young Yu Rang, after several hours of trekking, he entered the territory of the Zhongxing clan, and at a secret mountain pass, he met with two other "robbers".

Those "pirates" dressed as Rong and savages, although the clothes under their armors are old and tattered, they are actually in order. They formed a neat square, staring at the thieves motionless as they passed by.

Where are the pirates, they are clearly elite soldiers!

Hu Ying felt a chill. He knew that they were actually two family soldiers led by two gentlemen from the Fan and Zhongxing clans. They were constrained by the Sima Law and had been strictly trained.

The three parties joined forces of 1,500 people!

To go to such a big fight for a mere township shows that the two gentlemen are determined to succeed in becoming a township, and it also shows that the various nobles in Xinjiang may be in chaos.

Hu Ying thought, it is better to be chaotic, and only a little more chaotic, so that he has the opportunity to restore his ancestor status in this season of Jin.

After distributing the swords and armors, the gentleman of the Fan family sent Yu Rang, a small retainer who had a face-to-face meeting with Hu Ying, to bring the next steps of the two gentlemen.

At that time, Yu Rang squatted on the ground, drew a picture with a branch, and said, "There are three trails around Cheng Township. The gentleman decided to divide his troops into three paths, each walking on one side. The one you have assigned is the Shanyang Pavilion."

Hu Ying came to Chengxiang a few years ago, but he had never heard of the place name: "Shanyang Pavilion?"

"Of course, the gentleman of the Zhao family, who has grown into a township, is very cautious. Every road has a new pavilion, which is usually called a pavilion, but the inspection is more stringent. Touching the past, it is almost impossible, and we can only kill a few pavilion officials and patriarchs left behind in the pavilion. Using this as a base, we sent people up the mountain, and after nightfall, they formed a siege with the other two teams outside the township, and then went up in one fell swoop. , break through the walls, I am still your guide."

"Little gentleman is young, but he is quite familiar with this place. In fact, I came here a few years ago."

Yu Rang, who was deliberately called "Little Gentleman" by Fox Infant, did not have the joyous expression of ordinary teenagers when they were praised by adults. When he heard Hu Ying proudly talk about his "performance" many years ago, a look of disdain flashed in his eyes, he snorted coldly, and did not answer. (To be continued..)
