Little Lonely City Volume Little Lonely City Volume Chapter 73 Analysis
Wei Peng frowned and said, "How can you see it?"
Jia Shuo said: "Don't interrupt, I also think they are strange." ”
Yu Che nodded and said, "First of all, will Wujue be a little too stupid, or Wanhai too stupid." ”
"Tell me more. Wei Peng said.
Yu Che said: "Shangwutang is also one of the three major forces in Xiaogucheng, and in the eyes of outsiders, it is even the head of the three major forces. Is it unreasonable that his man at the helm is so ignorant of the world?
Wei Peng said: "This can be ruled out, when I was young, I fought with others and broke my head, so I have not been very bright." But it has been a frequent encounter with the help of nobles, and he has been supported by others to become the master of this martial arts hall. ”
Jia Shuo said: "Then this Wanhai is too stupid." ”
Wei Peng frowned at this time and said: "You say this, but there is some truth, although Wan Hai is not a person who has always followed enlightenment, but he is extremely smart, known as Wang Banxian, known as the last resort." It was a bit unbelievable that he could come up with such a way to try his luck and find allies in the Yunmeng Mountain Range. ”
Yu Che said again: "This is the biggest suspicion, but according to what you said, this Shangwutang has never sent scouts and the like to explore the path, so why would they come straight in the direction of our camp, and there will be nothing strange in this?"
This is also a doubtful point. Wan Hai may be because the mercenaries of Monk Wutang have stayed for a long time, and he is also a little refreshed, but he is a cautious person in his bones, usually Shangwutang is led by Enlightenment, and when he is the leader, most of the time scouts will be excluded. Wei Peng said.
"I think it's our people who are not doing well, and we didn't find out. Wait until I get back to the little lonely city to see how I clean them up. Jia Shuo said on the side.
Yu Che waved his hand on the side and said, "People have misses, and horses have stumbled." Brother Jia, didn't you also miss the dot because you overslept, and you were fined for half a month. ”
Yu Che's words revealed Jia Shuo's old background, because Jia Shuo was more casual when he was in Baicao Pavilion, he didn't ask to get up early. After arriving at the Northern Regions Guard, they were required to get up every morning and go to the Guardians. Jia Shuo was a little unaccustomed for a while, and if he didn't arrive three times in a row, he was fined half a fish by his boss. This is also a point that Wei Peng and Yu Che have been laughing at him.
Jia Shuo blushed and said angrily: "Expose people without revealing shortcomings, scolding people without scolding mothers." How did you learn to be as shameless as Wei Peng. ”
"Hey, hey, just talk, don't piggyback on me. Do you want to be fined for another half a month? Our Northern Regions Escort Force has a rule that if you don't respect your superiors, you will be fined for it. Wei Peng said.
Jia Shuo stopped talking, after all, Wei Peng is now his boss, Wei Peng is now on an equal footing with the two brothers Feng Cunzhu and Feng Xizhu, and Jia Shuo is Feng Xizhu's adjutant, so he is a head lower than Wei Peng.
Seeing that Jia Shuo was no longer talking, Wei Peng said to Yu Che: "Yu Che, you ignore him and continue." ”
Yu Che continued: "In addition, Wan Hai agreed to my master's conditions very happily just now, even if Shangwutang falls, they should have a little dignity." What's more, Shangwutang is not like an extremely philistine force like the Wan Qi Chamber of Commerce, if it is said that the Wan Qi Chamber of Commerce will have a choice and force to accept my master's conditions for the sake of immediate interests, I may still be able to believe it. But Shangwutang is a force composed of mercenaries, and their temperament has always been the same, but at this time, they are so compromised with my master, there must be something strange in this. ”
Jia Shuo said: "And according to me, that Wanhai doesn't look like a mercenary at all, but more like a businessman." ”
"But why?" said Yu Che.
Jia Shuo shook his head and said, "I can't say the reason, it's just because of the conclusion I came from the experience of dealing with the Wan Qi Chamber of Commerce over the years." ”
Wei Peng said: "Wan Hai is not from a small lonely city, which is also a more suspicious point. ”
Now it was Yu Che's turn to be interested and said, "Then who is he?"
Wei Peng said: "I don't know this very well, I heard those veterans say when I was in the army. ”
Jia Shuo said: "Then what else did those veterans say?"
Wei Peng glanced around, and when he saw that no one was still paying attention to the three of them, he said, "Then I'll give you some secrets, this has to start with the history of Shangwutang." ”
"You should all know that Shangwutang is a major force formed by mercenaries, so do you know how Shangwutang was established?"
Wei Peng saw that Jia Shuo and Yu Che both shook their heads together and continued: "The establishment of Shangwutang can be said to be the earliest among the three major forces, followed by Baicao Pavilion, and Wan Qi Chamber of Commerce is the latest. The inheritance of Shangwutang is at least more than a hundred years, and his position as hall master is not elected by family inheritance or popular opinion, but by the most powerful mercenary group leader as the hall master. This has caused Shangwutang to not advocate strategy now, but simply advocate strength. ”
"This can be seen from the body of the Hall Master of Enlightenment. Jia Shuo said.
Wei Peng nodded and said, "Wujue only became the master of the Shangwu Hall ten years ago, he has a bad brain, and most of the decisions are made by his deputy hall master. ”
Yu Che said, "Is that the deputy hall master of Wanhai?"
But Wei Peng shook his head and said, "That's the deputy hall master of Enlightenment, whose name is Wuquan, and he is a strong man at the level of Sword Venerable. Wujue and him are from the same school, and they go through the rivers and lakes together. The two are like brothers, Wuquan is Wujue's junior brother, but he has always taken good care of his stupid brother. Wuquan has always taken care of Wujue, and the two have endured hardships, but they have also created their own fame in the mercenary world. The Wuzi Mercenary Regiment they founded soon made a name for themselves. Later, the previous Shangwu Hall Master died, and Wujue's strength was the strongest among the many mercenary captains, that is, he served as the Shangwu Hall Master, and Wuquan served as the Deputy Hall Master. ”
"And what happened later? Where did this deputy hall master of Wuquan go again?" Jia Shuo said.
Wei Peng continued: "And in the fourth year of Wujue's tenure as the master of the Shangwu Hall, this deputy hall master of Wuquan disappeared for no reason. ”
"Missing?" Jia Shuo and Yu Che said together.
Wei Peng nodded and said: "That's right, it's missing, even now, no one knows where he went, even Wujue, the senior brother he is most concerned about doesn't know, Wujue just said, Wuquan told him that he was going to a far away place, but he would come back in the end." ”
Yu Che said: "This is a bit of a pity, how did the deputy hall master of Wanhai enter the Shangwu Hall?"
"This is the fifth year that Wujue has been the master of the Shangwu Hall, and in that year, Wuquan disappeared, and the entire Shangwu Hall fell into chaos. Wujue was also on the verge of collapse, and even several times he wanted to take the initiative against Dong Lan and the two cities, but fortunately, the two city lords did not have the same knowledge as him. Otherwise, a big battle would break out between Shangwutang and the City Lord's Mansion, and at that time, Shangwutang could be said to be strong and strong, if it really clashed, it would be really difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser. Wei Peng said.
Jia Shuo said: "I have also heard about this matter, but does this have anything to do with the appearance of Wanhai?"
Wei Peng said: "What are you in a hurry, I'm thirsty, go pour me water." ”
"I'll pour you water?" Jia Shuo said angrily.
Wei Peng glanced at him and said, "What's the matter? You shouldn't be serving me?
Jia Shuo hurriedly said: "Don't don't, don't, you are a big family, I can't afford to mess with you." Don't forget, feng shui takes turns, waiting for me to gain power that day. As he spoke, he took out a kettle from the Cloud Swallowing Ring and handed it to Wei Peng. It's not that Jia Shuo is spineless, he was fined by Wei Peng for more than half a month last month, plus he spends money lavishly on weekdays, he originally had no deposit in Baicao Pavilion, if he is fined again this month, he will have to go to the gate of Xiaogucheng with a bowl to ask for food.
After Wei Peng took a big sip, he handed it to Jia Shuo and said, "The water given by Shuoshuo in our family is sweet." ”
"Bah, don't disgust me, you say it quickly. Jia Shuo put the kettle into the Cloud Swallowing Ring and said angrily to Wei Peng.
Wei Peng laughed twice and said: "Wan Hai arrived in Xiaogucheng at that time, and joined Shangwutang, and no one knows his details, but he was shocked by the consciousness that was already on the verge of madness, and no one knows what method he used, which no one has found out until now." And after that, he became the deputy hall master of Shangwu Hall, and Enlightenment also obeyed him. Shangwutang has not perished, in the past few years, Shangwutang's strength has been good, but in recent years, it has gone downhill. ”
Yu Che said, "Why is this?"
"Every force will come to an abrupt end when it reaches a peak, the strength of Shangwutang in those years is indeed very strong, even if the City Lord's Mansion and Baicao Pavilion are the combined efforts of the Wanqi Chamber of Commerce, I am afraid that they will not be able to easily solve Shangwutang. For a while, there was a feeling that the tail was too big to fall. Wei Peng said again.
At this time, Yu Che felt a gust of wind coming from behind him, so he turned around, but saw Wan Hai standing behind him, and said with an indifferent smile: "Young men, it's time to eat." As he spoke, he walked not far away, and it was time for breakfast. Wei Peng and Jia Shuo glanced at each other and walked towards the people who were eating, and Yu Che also followed, but Yu Che felt that Wan Hai's smile just now made people feel so uncomfortable, and he didn't have that sense of annoyance. If a normal person hears others talking about him behind his back, he will definitely feel some discomfort in his heart, and this discomfort will be more or less shown on his face, but this Ten Thousand Deputy Hall Master is not aware of it at all.
"What an unfathomable person. Yu Che muttered.
