Chapter 377, Fierce West Wind 8
Lu Ru said: "Actually, it's very simple, if you want to prevent the Qin army from repenting, you only need two heads. [Full text reading. γβ
Wu Heng was stunned: "Two heads? Which two? Lu Ru said: "One is the head of the county order, killing the county order is a rebellion, a complete break with the court, and a scheming to the Qin army." Wu Heng nodded, thinking that even Ding Qirui had been arrested, and it was not a big deal to kill a county order, so he asked, "What about the second head?" β
Lu Ru walked up to him and said in a low voice: "The second human head is ......."
Speaking of this, he suddenly frowned, turned his face to the window, and listened carefully, Wu Heng heard him say that he was at a critical juncture, but he didn't say anything, he couldn't help but be stunned, and looked out along Lu Ru's gaze: "General Lu, what are you listening to?" β
Lu Ru said: "Has the Qin army entered the city?" Why is it so messy? β
Wu Heng stood up, walked to the window, pushed open the window and listened carefully. There was no movement in the city at all.
At the same time, Lu Ru had already walked behind him, pulled out his sword from under his waist, and stabbed it out with a cold sword, stabbing it under Wu Heng's left ribs, and the tip of the sword was exposed on his right waist.
Wu Heng screamed miserably and looked back at Lu Ru: "You...... You ......"
Lu Ru sneered slightly, twisted his wrist, and blood shot out, so painful that Wu Heng couldn't stand anymore, and fell down. He fell to the ground, covering his wounds with his hands, and his eyes were as wide as cowbells: "The surname is Lu, you are a wolf with ambition...... What a ruthless method......" Lu Ru took out a silk scarf unhurriedly, wiped the blood on the sword, and said indifferently: "You don't have any eloquence, even if you split the soil, sooner or later you will have to be taken away, why not give it to me directly?" β
Wu Heng's face changed miserably, his mouth was bleeding, and he was speechless.
Lu Ru wiped the sword, inserted it back into the sheath, squatted down, and stared at Wu Heng: "Although my Lu family is not as powerful as your Wu family, as long as I have military power in my hand, I am not afraid that the Wu family will turn over the sky." If you die in a while, I will order your Wu family to be beheaded, you can go to the ghost gate and wait for them first......"
Wu Heng shouted: "Lao Tzu is a ghost, and he will strangle you......"
He stretched out his hand and really grabbed Lu Ru's neck, but he didn't have the strength anymore, staring at those bull's eyes, and whimpering for his life.
Lu Ru came out, stopped in front of the yamen, and ordered his soldiers: "Take down Wu Heng's people." β
His soldiers immediately rushed up, grabbed several of Wu Heng's personal soldiers, and pressed them to the ground. Lu Ru said loudly: "Wu Hengqi, wolf ambition, he betrayed the court, but also betrayed the father and villagers of Tianshui, just now he was in the house, saying that he would sell the people of Tianshui City to the Qin army as slaves, in exchange for the trust of the Qin army, let him establish himself as the king of Liangzhou." When he saw that I retorted, he became angry and wanted to kill me and get rid of the trouble, but it was clear to heaven that the traitor destroyed himself, and this man was not my opponent, but I have killed him. I will do my best to protect the people of Tianshui City, so that no one will suffer. β
When he had finished speaking, he commanded: "Behead all the guards of the thieves." β
After a few knives, several of Wu Heng's personal soldiers, with two points on their heads, were bleeding all over the street. Lu Ru also ordered a thousand generals, with 200 cavalry, to search everywhere and behead the Wu Heng family, regardless of gender.
Lu Ru has been a general in Tianshui for a long time, leading troops well, and his subordinates are very loyal to him, and the Lu family is in Tianshui, and there are also some forces, which are considered to be the head snakes of the land, and he has a wide range of contacts, plus he himself is very capable, so his subordinates obey him, and the thousand always brought 200 cavalry, and went like a gust of wind.
Ding Qirui saw this change completely, he was overjoyed, and shouted: "General Lu, let me go quickly." Lu Ru came to his side, looked at Lord Ding who was tied together, and smiled: "My lord, I still want to exchange you for the lives of the people in the city, so I can't let you go, let's wronged you for a while." β
As he spoke, he ordered someone to plug Ding Qirui's mouth so that he wouldn't scream.
After a while, the Qian Zong came back with people, dozens of spears carrying heads, men, women and children, no need to ask, Wu Heng's family was all killed.
Lu Ru then ordered someone to cut off Wu Heng's head, slaughtered it together with the county order, put the head into a box, and then ordered to take Ding Qirui, raise and surrender the flag, and go out of the city to surrender to the Qin army.
Bai Qi looked at the head and sneered: "How do I know, this is the real Wu Heng and the county order?" β
Lu Ru said: "The general can find someone who knows Wu Henghe and the county order, come to identify, if there is a fake, he is willing to sacrifice his head." β
Bai Qi nodded slightly: "So, do you want to replace Wu Heng and rip the earth as the king?" β
Lu Ru said: "Exactly." Wu Heng has no talent, just relying on his family seniority as an official for generations. Moreover, the Wu family has always bullied men and women in Gansu, and they are lawless, and the people dare not speak out. Such a person becomes a king, and the people under his rule will surely fall into great luck. β
Bai Qi said: "The implication is that you are much stronger than Wu Heng?" β
Lu Ru was also not polite: "Exactly, in the next family background, the family style is honest, and he has never done anything that hurts nature and reason." The people are very respectful of the Lu family. As long as Gansu is managed, it will be calm and calm, and there is no need for Qin Jun to worry. β
Bai Qi sneered: "You have already killed Wu Heng and killed the county commander, even if Qin Jun wants to make you king, it is impossible." It's just that you have thought about it, the people obey you and obey you, which means that you are a talented person, and there is a powerful person like you behind the Qin army, can I rest assured? β
Lu Ru was stunned, and cold sweat gradually broke out on his forehead.
Bai Qi choked, pulled out the heavy sword under the ribs, frightened Lu Ru, as soon as he looked up, Bai Qi's sword had already fallen, Lu Ru closed his eyes, but he didn't take half a step back, Bai Qi's heavy sword just lightly pressed on the root of his neck, and ordered the soldiers around him: "Take him down." β
Several Qin soldiers stepped forward and tied up.
When the two officers and soldiers saw it, their eyes were red, because they had no weapons, they rushed up and wanted to play with their bare hands, but they were stopped by Lu Ru: "You stand down, don't move rashly." β
Lu Ru did not struggle and let the Qin army tie up.
Bai Qi instructed Wang Bao: "You take 2,000 men and horses, occupy Tianshui City, and if you don't resist, don't kill people." β
Wang Bao nodded, took two thousand cavalry, took the lead, and rushed to Tianshui City.
The two or three hundred cavalry outside the city did not panic or flee, but flashed to both sides, gave way to the main road, and let the Qin army rush into the city.
After Wang Bao led his troops into the city, he first took over the city gate, and then led his troops into the palace, and when he went in, the government was empty and there were no officials. Because the county commander was indeed killed, the people in the yazhong had already fled. He led his troops to the barracks of the garrison, and saw that there were three or four thousand people here, all lined up and sitting on the school grounds, each with no weapons in their hands. When these officers and soldiers saw the Qin army rushing in, they were not afraid, they still sat still, it seemed that Lu Ru had already given them an order to wait here.
After turning around, Wang Bao could be sure that Tianshui City was indeed not ready to resist, so he sent someone out of the city to deliver a letter to Bai Qi.
When Bai Qi got the news, he ordered the men and horses to enter the city, and when the 10,000 Qin troops attacked Lanzhou, nearly 500 people were killed and wounded, and Bai Qi ordered 5,000 people to escort the King of Qin and the princess into the city, and more than 4,000 people were stationed outside the city in case there was a change.
The king of Qin and others entered the city, entered the palace, and sat upright in the hall, Bai Qi and Wang Bao stood on both sides, and dozens of Qin army guards stood around them. The king of Qin ordered to summon LΓΌ Ru up, and when LΓΌ Ru arrived in the hall, he saw the king of Qin kneeling down and saluting, saying long live.
The King of Qin looked at Lu Ru, ordered him to stand up and speak, asked for his name, and then said: "Lu Ru, you beheaded Wu Heng, killed the county order, and have already rebelled against the court and surrendered to my Qin army, won't you regret it?" β
Lu Ru replied: "The king, the court is dim, the people are thieves, the world is rotten, the Ming Dynasty has been in danger, the king has to carry out benevolent government, accept the hungry and homeless, praise from all the people, have a good reputation, sooner or later it will become a big thing." The last general was also a person who was willing to defend Gansu for the king, so that the Qin army would have no worries. β
King Qin listened to what Lu Ru said, and knew that this person not only had the means, but also had good eloquence, so he naturally couldn't despise such a person, so he said: "You are right, but people's hearts are unpredictable, what can you do to make this king feel at ease?" β
Lu Ru naturally understood, he had already thought about it: "King, the ancestral home of my Lu family is Tianshui, although the people are not prosperous, but there are also some foundations, in order to make the king settle the people, the people of my family can follow the Qin army into the Guanzhong, the king himself designated, and the end will not have a word." β
When King Qin heard this, Lu Ru wanted to sacrifice hostages, which was exactly what he wanted. Originally, in the Qin and Autumn Warring States Period, it had become a common practice for countries to proton each other, and the monarch sent his son to a neighboring country, and the neighboring country also sent the son's son, which was commonplace, so he said: "Does General Lu have children?" β
Lu Ru said: "The last general is young, he just got married the year before last, and now he has a son who has just turned old. If the king believes in the last general, the last general can be protoned. β
King Qin nodded: "That's very good." General, you can do this. β
Bai Qi agreed, sent his subordinates to follow Lu Ru's servants, and went to Lu's house to pick up the child, not long after, the child came, and followed by the two nurses, Bai Qi went to the side of King Qin, and said in a low voice: "The last general has already heard many people, this child is indeed Lu Ru's son, and there is only this one son." β
King Qin smiled: "Lu Ru, you are very honest and knowledgeable about current affairs, this king is very happy, so I will crown you as King Liang." Gansu is all under your control, as long as you are loyal to my Qin army, you can ensure that you will be the king for generations. β
Lu Ru hurriedly knelt down: "King, the last general will not dare to be called King Liang." β
King Qin said: "Why? Lu Ru said: "You are the king of Qin, if I call the king of Liang, I will have the meaning of being side by side with the king, and the last general will never dare, if you want to be the king, but ask for the name of the king of Liangzhou." King Qin nodded: "Okay, it's called King Liangzhou." β
