Chapter 15: Huang Yu of Wucheng County designed to blame Wei Yuan, and Ziliang was punished when he encountered a poisonous snake on the grain road

"Childe is back?" As soon as Huang Yu saw Huang Feng walking into the tent, he hurriedly got up and saluted.

"Humph!" Huang Feng reluctantly agreed, and hatefully threw the brocade box in his hand on the case.

"Could it be that Childe encountered a problem when he delivered the grain and grass?" Huang Yu asked cautiously.

"Don't mention it, Wang Ping's killing talent, I will escort the baggage here on time without reward, not to mention, and reprimand me fiercely." Huang Feng said angrily: "Then I will be ordered to escort the baggage to Shanxian early tomorrow morning." ”

"Childe, although it is tiring to escort grain and grass to Shanxian County, there is no lack of a beautiful difference." Huang Yu persuaded: "After all, we don't need to fight with the Wei army, as long as the grain is escorted to Shanxian County, Gongzi will make another contribution, why should we be angry about this?" ”

"I'm annoyed that the guy didn't even give me time to repair for a day," Huang Feng said hatefully: "When did I suffer so much in Chengdu?" ”

"Childe and endure for a while, according to the master, this war will take more than three months at most, and after three months, Childe can return to Chengdu." Huang Yu persuaded, then pointed to the brocade box with a seal on the table, and asked, "Childe, what is this?" Why is there a seal of General Wang Ping? ”

"After I arrived in Shanxian County, I sent this brocade box to the pioneer camp, I don't know what it is." Huang Feng said while slamming a hateful punch on the brocade box, and hit the brocade box straight out, and said: "Since you arranged for me to escort it over, and you don't tell me what is inside, don't you believe me Huang Feng?" ”

The brocade box fell to the ground, rolled on the ground a few times, the seal cracked, the lid of the brocade box fell aside, and the contents of the box were suddenly revealed. Huang Yu was shocked, and immediately stepped forward to pick up the brocade box, took a look at it, and couldn't help but be surprised, and shouted: "Son, you are in a big disaster!" ”

Huang Feng was taken aback and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Huang Yu pointed to the thing in the brocade box and said: "This thing must be this thing of General Liao Hua, this thing in the army, it needs to be sealed immediately after it is made, and then the main general will gather the three armies, burn the old things in front of the three armies, and then use the new things." When it is used, the lord will also need to sacrifice it with three animals to protect the whole army. If the old thing is not gone and the new thing appears, it will be detrimental to the whole army, and the main general will also have the disaster of fighting. This is General Liao's thing that has seen the light of day in advance, and if General Liao knows about this matter, he will not give up on his son. ”

Hu Feng was suddenly shocked and said, "How is this good?" He walked a few steps back and forth in the tent, and said, "Then Wang Ping harmed me, if I had told me earlier that this thing was so important, how could I accidentally knock it to the ground?" ”

Then he hurriedly packed up his belongings, Huang Yu saw it and asked, "Childe, what are you doing?" ”

"I want to return to Chengdu immediately, and my father will save me." Huang Feng said, and then picked up the package and prepared to leave the account.

"Childe can't!" Huang Yu grabbed Huang Feng and said: "Son, returning to Shu at this time is a dead end, such as that Liao Hua and Wang Ping are playing to the holy, and the saint will not be able to stop the lord if he blames him." ”

"Advancing and retreating are dead ends, I go back to Chengdu, my father may be able to save me." Huang Feng said hurriedly.

"Wait, Childe, I have a solution." Huang Yu suddenly thought of a plan and said: "Gongzi can privately arrange for an uncle to keep this brocade box in advance, and order him to take a fast horse to send this brocade box to the pioneer camp after arriving in Shanxian County." At that time, if General Liao Hua blamed him, Gongzi only deduced that the seal of the brocade box would be intact when he handed over the brocade box to Na Bochang. General Liao Hua would only think that it was Na Bo Chang who damaged the brocade box, but this thing saw the light of day in advance. The rest of the things have nothing to do with the child. ”

Huang Feng was overjoyed when he heard this: "This plan is wonderful!" It just happened to end Liao Yuan's life! At this time, Huang Feng's eyes seemed to be Shangguan Xingye's delicate face again.

The five cities are about 300 miles away from Shancheng, and Huang Feng received the military order to arrive on the 5th, and then set off with more than 500 soldiers and more than 1,000 people. This time, the group of people solved more than 100 ox carts, more than 200 wooden oxen and horses, because the Shu road is narrow, so the team is extremely long. This time, Huang Feng learned the lesson of the last grain charge, but he also got serious, and the first day of the march was about sixty or seventy miles, so that he would definitely arrive in Shanxian on time.

On the second day, Wei Yuan was wearing armor and holding a three-pointed two-edged knife with the army, and suddenly there was a panic in the rear of the hundred-man team to which he belonged, and then Li Ming came to report: "Uncle, it's not good." In the rear, a soldier was devoured by a poisonous snake while going to the toilet and had already returned. ”

Wei Yuan was taken aback, and immediately rushed to the back of the team with Niu Mang to check. After walking for a short time, I saw the soldier who had fallen dead in a bush by the side of the road, with a black face, curled up, and his left foot in his hands.

Wei Yuan squatted down and found four wounds on the soldier's feet that had been bitten by poisonous snakes, still spilling blood. Wei Yuan smacked his hand on his wound, put it on his nose and sniffed it, and said, "This is a first-line snake venom, Li Ming, Guo Yi!" ”

"In!" At this time, Li Ming, who had already been promoted to the rank of chief, immediately stepped forward to promise.

"A line of snakes is extremely venomous, and the middle one will be killed immediately. But its crawling speed is extremely slow, and you two quickly lead someone to catch this snake with me, so that no one will be injured by the snake again. ”

"No!" Li Ming and the others immediately led people to explore with sticks to find the whereabouts of the snake.

"What happened?" At this moment, a voice suddenly asked. But Huang Feng happened to see this scene, so he rode a horse and brought people to inquire.

Wei Yuan had no choice but to report the news of the soldier's death from a poisonous snake to Huang Feng. After Wei Yuan's words, Huang Feng suddenly felt that the opportunity for revenge was coming, and asked coldly: "Who does this soldier belong to?" ”

Wei Yuan arched his hand and replied, "It's a certain family." ”

"Before the battlefield, some soldiers died in the ominous war, and this is all caused by your negligence, can you be guilty?" Huang Feng said angrily.

"You guy, you have repeatedly troubled my brother, among the bushes, there are many snakes and insects, and they have been poisoned by poisonous snakes, what do you have to do with my brother? Don't think that a certain fist is weak? When Niu Mang heard this, he was immediately furious and shouted.

"That being said, as long as you arrange for the personnel to be cautious in entering the bushes in advance, or arrange for the two to act in pairs, the soldier may not die." Huang Yu was on the side at this time.

"You ......" Niu Mang just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Wei Yuan, Wei Yuan stopped Niu Mang and arched his hand: "In this case, the last general is willing to admit the guilt." ”

"A little Dubo, and he dares to call himself the last general?" Huang Feng sighed: "In this case, someone and I will take down this Liao Yuan and execute it on the spot, so as to correct the military regulations." ”

Niu Mang immediately put the big axe on his back in his hand, and shouted angrily: "Which one dares to move? The voice was like thunder, and all the soldiers were shocked by it, but no one dared to come out to arrest Wei Yuan.

At this time, Huang Yu arched his hand at Huang Feng and said: "Young man, although this Liao Yuan is guilty, his crime will not lead to death." Please also ask Childe to forgive one or two. ”

Huang Feng glanced at Niu Mang, who had all his beard and hair, and was secretly a little afraid in his heart, Huang Yu was at the right time to speak at this time, so he got off the donkey and asked, "Then what should I do when I see it?" ”

"Twenty sticks are enough." Huang Yu glanced at Wei Yuan and Niu Mang.

"That being the case, come here, and I will heavily blame Liao Yuan's twenty military sticks to correct the military regulations." Huang Feng shouted.

At this time, his own soldiers stepped forward to capture Wei Yuan, but they were glared at by Niu Mang's tiger's eyes, and Nuo Nuo did not dare to move forward.

"You two want to do the opposite?" When Huang Yu saw it, he shouted loudly.

At this time, Wei Yuan also opened his mouth and shouted: "Jin Shang, don't be impulsive, don't retreat." ”

"Brother!" Niu Mang turned around and looked at Wei Yuan, very indignant.

"You are now going to assist Li Ming and Guo Yi to catch that line of snakes, go quickly!" Wei Yuan ordered.

Niu Mang glanced at Wei Yuan, who was pale, and finally didn't dare to say anything evil, only made a hateful promise, and rushed directly into the bushes with a big axe, venting the grievances in his heart.

Seeing the reckless man leaving, Huang Feng suddenly let out a long breath and shouted to Wei Yuan: "Liao Yuan, beat you with twenty military sticks, can you be convinced?" ”

"The last general is willing to be punished." Wei Yuan arched his hand.

"In that case, if someone comes, don't call me yet!" Huang Feng shouted.

Suddenly, Huang Feng's own soldiers stepped forward and took off Wei Yuanzhi's armor, and then grabbed Wei Yuanzhi's collar and prepared to throw Wei Yuan to the ground so that he could march with a stick, but he exerted his strength for a long time, but he saw that Wei Yuan did not move at all, and he was tired and panting.

"Give me all the useless things!" Huang Feng shouted.

"Wait! Come by yourself! Wei Yuan shouted. Then he untied his outer robe, rolled up his inner shirt to expose his back, and then sat upright on the ground (Note 1) and said, "Come on." ”

"Hit me, hit hard, hit hard!" Huang Feng shouted.

Suddenly, an executive soldier held a military stick and hit Wei Yuan's back, only the skin of Wei Yuan's back was open and the flesh was blurred, but after the twenty military sticks came down, Wei Yuan's whole body did not bend down, and there was no cry of pain in his mouth, which couldn't help but make the soldiers present secretly admire, and also made Huang Feng, who was watching the excitement on the sidelines, secretly unhappy.

"This time it's cheap, if there is a next time, I will not spare it!" Huang Feng shouted itchingly, and then led people away.

At this time, Niu Mang had already returned, put one hand on Wei Yuan's armpit to help Wei Yuan up, and asked, "Is my brother okay?" ”

"Flesh and skin wounds, what a tooth to worry about." Wei Yuan smiled: "I just need to bother Jin Shang to help me apply the medicine for a few days." ”

"And rightfully so." Niu Mangdao.

At this time, Li Ming and Guo Yi rushed over, and Li Ming said indignantly: "I don't know where Du Bo offended General Huang Pi, and he was targeted everywhere. ”

"Shut up!" Wei Yuan reprimanded: "I don't think about it, so the soldiers are damaged, and they should be punished." He didn't want to talk too much about this, so he asked, "Has that snake ever been caught?" ”

"It's been caught." Guo Yi raised the cloth bag in his hand and said, "Just take its snake gall bladder and heal Du Bo's wounds." ”

"No." Wei Yuan smiled: "This snake is of great use. ”

"This snake venom seals its throat with blood, and it is the most vicious, what is the use of Du Bo to keep it?" Li Ming asked puzzled.

Wei Yuan said with a smile: "I want to keep it in captivity, take its snake venom and smear it on the bow and arrow every day, and if there is an opportunity to use it to snipe the generals of the Wei State in the future." ”

Later, Wei Yuan went to the secluded place with Niu Mang's support, and did not mention the medicine.

Note 1: During the Han Dynasty, there were two ways to execute the cane, one of which was to remove the victim's coat, make him fall on the ground, and hit him on the back with a cane. On the other hand, after removing the mantle of the tortured, the tortured person sits upright on the ground and receives the rod. Often, very few of the latter kind of cane punishment can insist on sitting upright, and most of them go down with a few canes, and the person who is tortured will cry for his father and mother, so the vast majority of people are the first type of punishment, and the second type is very rare
