Chapter 14: Bleaching V

With Mushan as the county lieutenant, replacing Chen Feng's position?

Cai Tu suddenly understood that this was to hold the military power and beware of his own autumn reckoning.

But Cai Tu still shook his head.

It's not that Cai Tu is unwilling to agree, he also knows that if they can't let Mu Shan and them hold the military power, they can't trust themselves at all, but Mu Shan definitely can't.

A few years ago, the Yellow Turban Rebellion caused a sensation throughout the world, and Nanyang County was one of the war zones, and Zhang Mancheng, the chief general of the Nanyang Yellow Turban, was praised by the imperial court as a big trouble, and his importance was not below the three Zhang brothers.

And which of the five major generals under Zhang Mancheng's command is not named in the court.

Over the years, Nanyang County has not been peaceful, because it was fought too hard, the war destroyed the lives of many people, and there were countless people who fell into the grass, Mushan is not the most powerful, but it is the number one henchman in the entire Nanyang County, because he is the only one of the five generals under Zhang Mancheng.

When Zhang Mancheng attacked Wancheng, he took the lead, first climbed to the head of the city, and broke through the city with three hammers, so that how many Han soldiers were frightened, and there were countless people who knew him among the soldiers of Nanyang County.

Too easy to expose.

Once his identity is revealed, then he will also become a thief, which he can't accept.

"The prefectural magistrate doesn't need to worry about this!"

Mu Jing said with a smile: "Most of us are Taiping Dao disciples, although Taiping Dao is not the right way, but there are a lot of skills in the side door, it is not difficult to change the face of a person, my father is sure, he will never be exposed, and we are connected by fate, if it is exposed, we will die first, isn't it?" ”

Mu Jing asked Mu Shan about this, and Mu Shan agreed.

Before, he was going to recommend Cheng Luo or Zhao Ping Lei Gong to sit in the position of county lieutenant and control the military power, but Mu Shan said that Hong Lang on Mushroom Mountain has a skill, he is good at being face-washed, and he needs to change his face for people, as long as he changes his weapon and wants to fool the past, this matter is not difficult.

The Yellow Turban Army originated from the apprentices of Taiping Dao, although Taiping Dao is a banner pulled out by Zhang Jiao, but the background is still very deep, and it has gathered countless rangers, many of whom have unique skills.

Therefore, Mu Jing still decided to let Mu Shan be the county lieutenant, because the military power is the most reassuring only when it is in his own hands.

"This official has forgotten that in the Taiping Road, thieves are accumulated, there are countless rangers, and there are even more people who are good at the art of Qihuang, the way of the Mo family, and so on, if Mu Yuanzhong is not afraid of exposure, this is possible!" When Cai Tu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately sneered.

"Now as long as the prefectural commander is willing to cooperate with us, we can all live!"

Mu Jing took a deep breath and said indifferently, people's hearts are the most difficult to fathom, even if he is confident that he can convince Cai Tu, he is still worried that Cai Tu would rather kill himself than cooperate.

"Mu Longtu, you are talented and intelligent, you are by no means an ordinary young man, this official has seen countless talents in Jingzhou, no one can compare to your tongue, you persuaded me, the ants are still stealing life, this official naturally does not want to die!"

Cai Tu squinted slightly: "But this official is reading the book of sages, a Confucian disciple, and even more expensive is a parent official, why do you think this official will cooperate with you thieves?" ”

"The county magistrate also said that you are a parent official, guarding Wuyin, and you have to be responsible for the people of Wuyin, and you don't want the war to happen again, so that hundreds of thousands of people in Wuyin will fall into the chaos of war!"

Mu Jing smiled darkly.

"You threaten me?"

"It's not!" Mu Jing shook his head and said with a straight face: "I'm just stating a fact, if anyone makes us unable to live, we will fight with whoever we want, and kill him with a river of blood, at any cost!" ”

"Aren't you afraid of being damned?" Cai Tu clenched his fists and his face gloomy, he knew that the meaning of Mu Jing's words was to slaughter the city, and if they couldn't gain a foothold, they would slaughter Wuyin and turn it into a hell of blood and corpses.

"We seek to live, not to die, as long as we can survive smoothly, what about God's damnation!" Mu Jing sneered, his momentum soared, and a bare foot ruthlessness that was not afraid of wearing shoes broke out on his body, which made Cai Tu shudder a little.

"I'm going to think about it!"

Cai Tu was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke.

"Yes!"

The pastor nodded, he knew that Cai Tu was struggling in his heart, and he should be given a space to think at this time.

"In addition, I want to see the master Li Yan!"

"It's okay too!"

Mu Jing stood up, put on his shoes, pushed open the door, and walked out.

About two quarters of an hour.

Outside the library, the young Li Yan knocked on the door, and then without waiting for Cai Tu in the house to speak, he pushed the door directly and walked in, and after coming in, he bowed slightly and saluted: "Yan greets the county commander!" ”

"Zhengfang, we are all prisoners now, no need to be polite!"

Cai Tu waved his hand and said, "Sit down!" ”

"No!" Li Yan sat down a little apprehensively, he had a talent to learn, but he had been out of office for less than a year, and he was still quite uneasy when he encountered such a major event.

"Zhengfang, they gave Benguan a chance to survive!" Cai Tu gets straight to the point, and now the only thing he can trust is probably Li Yan, so he needs Li Yan's wisdom to make a decision for him.

Whether to join them or kill yourself is a multiple-choice question, a difficult choice.

"Opportunity?" Li Yan squinted slightly, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.

Cai Tu explained the matter in detail, without missing a word: "What does the square mean?" ”

"Lord County, are you sure that you are not talking to him about Mu Yuanzhong, but Mu Longtu!"

"The official is very sure, although this son is about twelve or thirteen years old, he has an excellent heart, not only is he not afraid in the face of the official, but even the momentum is still above the official, and in his words, he is even more aggressive, not to be underestimated!"

Cai Tu said in a low voice: "He won the sympathy of the official with the miserable sight of the people of the Yellow Turban, and then encompassed the grace and might, first tempted him with life and death, and then forced him with life and death, so that the official was in a dilemma. ”

Li Yan recalled in his mind that the handsome-looking young man actually had such an evaluation of Cai Tu, I am afraid that he was blindsided.

He pondered for a while before he spoke: "Lord County, in fact, this is not a bad thing!" ”

"How?" Cai Tu frowned.

"We all read the books of the sages, understand the truth, and govern benevolently, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, this thief of the yellow turbans, in the past, was mostly homeless, the so-called homeless, is still the people of the Han Dynasty, they committed rebellion, naturally cannot be forgiven!"

Li Yan said very sincerely and calmly: "But it is undeniable that if it were not for the DPRK...... If they are not forced to do so, they will not become anti-thieves, the way of sages, in education, if they can take this opportunity to educate Mushan and others to serve the court, this is also a supreme merit, of course, the court has the rules of the court, so we can't surrender clearly, Mu Longtu This method can be tried, Chen Feng is dead, among the county officials, no one can be a military general, if Mushan can change, for Wuyin, it is also a good thing, at least with his ability, we can Wuyin to protect the peace, not from the bandits! ”

He paused and continued: "But I'm worried that they won't change their thief nature in the future and won't be able to settle down, so I'll dance yin ......."

He didn't say this, but Cai Tu also understood.

"What do you think of this fang in Mu Yuanzhong?" Cai Tu asked.

"Although he is a bandit, his reputation is also quite clear, if it weren't for the fact that he was the first fierce general under Zhang Mancheng's back, there are not many people in Nanyang County who want to surrender him!" Li Yan said.

"Then we'll take a gamble!"

Cai Tu clenched his fists, bit his lip, and his eyes burst out with a fierce and incomparable light: "If I die, it will be a bad fate, but I can't bring disaster to Wuyin, let's take the risk of giving them a chance, maybe we can win their allegiance!" ”

"Lord County, even if we are willing, I'm afraid there will be some trouble!"

Li Yan said.

"You mean Wuyin Zhu?" Cai Tu's face was gloomy.

"Zhu Xiancheng has obviously already gotten some news, but he didn't care about our safety, and returned to Zhu Mansion alone, Zhu Mansion is the first wealthy family in Wuyin, there are many private soldiers in the door, and a lot of weapons are stored, even the eight-pointed bow and crossbow used by the elite soldiers of the imperial court, but now that the troops have not been dispatched, the intention is already obvious!"

Li Yan said in a low voice: "He should be waiting for the county magistrate to be killed by Mushan, and then send troops to suppress the bandits, and then he will get rid of the thorn in the eye of the county magistrate, and he can also make a great contribution, and make up for the position of the county lord, it will be foolproof!" ”

"Humph!" Cai Tu snorted coldly: "He's so calculating!" ”

He and Zhu Zhan have had a lot of contradictions over the years.

Zhu Zhan, on behalf of the local squire, is the soil emperor of Wuyin, and controls too much land in Wuyin, and he is the county commander of Wuyin, in charge of the people.

"Lord County, even if we are willing to accept Mushan and let him live in the county soldiers, if he goes to Wancheng to file a complaint, I'm afraid we will also be questioned!" Li Yan said: "If we don't solve him, we still have no way to live!" ”

"Is there a way?" Cai Tu's eyes looked at Li Yan with a hint of hope, and said.

"There is one way, and that is to ......" The corners of Li Yan's mouth raised slightly, and a cold smile appeared inadvertently.

"Say!"
