Chapter 40: The Farce Before Dawn (1)

Outside the city of Chencang, in the camp of Wei Kai.

"Report, General Youda has led his troops to pacify the enemy in Dongcang."

"Report, General Zhang Xi has successfully entered Yu County."

One after another, the messengers from all over the country reported to Wei Kai's headquarters. Wei Kai, who was still worried, suddenly reassured, this is not to say that Wei Kai is afraid of confronting the clan in Chencang County.

The lion fights the rabbit, there is still strength left, not to mention those local tyrants and bullies who have been surrounded by Wei Kai in Chencang City, and the last fish is dead, how can Wei Kai not be vigilant?

Moreover, using his subordinates to exchange for those crooked fruits and cracked dates in Wei Kai's eyes was already fish meat on Wei Kai's chopping board, and Wei Kai felt that it was very worthless.

Now the area around Chencang has been occupied by Wei Kaijun, and the general trend has been decided. The clan that was cowering in Chencang County had become fat in Wei Kai's eyes. Now it's time to think about how to make this piece of fat better, rather than worrying about whether it will hurt your teeth.

Maybe the clans in Chencang City gathered strength to resist Wei Kai, and Wei Kai would also look down on these old clans.

However, before Wei Kai's army reached Chencang, the clans in the city hid in fear within the high city walls, and let Wei Kai take Dongcang, Yuxian, and Changchuan in vain. Wei Kai can only say that if rotten things don't perish, there will be no heavenly principles in this world.

Born in sorrow, died in peace. Countless wealth and extravagant life have corroded the bones of those clans, and they have become more bullying and greedy than the clans of Shandong.

It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift, this sentence is really not wrong.

At the beginning, the ancestors of the Chen Cang clan worked together in the Qin Mugong period, overcame thorns and thorns to open up Dongcang to the east, destroyed the Yu tribe and set up Yu County, and fought with Shu in the south to capture the Pingnan area of the Qinling Mountains. The territory of Qin increased greatly, and the national strength increased dramatically, opening up a situation in which Mu Gong dominated one side.

It's a pity that only a hundred years have passed. Now that the Qin State is in decline, the Qin family who live in the temple does not add their own strength to the weakened Qin State like their ancestors, but constantly sucks the flesh and blood of the Qin State to satisfy their own selfish desires.

So much so that during the "Rebellion of the Fourth" of the Qin State, the east was defeated by Wei, and the vast land west of the river was lost, and the land of horse grazing was lost to the north. Wei Kai could only say: "It's not distressing for the cub to sell Yetian."

Just as Wei Kai summoned the generals who remained in the headquarters to start the discussion, the soldiers in the front battalion hurriedly reported to Wei Kai. Hearing that there was a team of relatives in Chen Cangcheng, Wei Kai felt funny, it seemed that he was really underestimated.

But this is also an opportunity, Wei Xingxing thought, so he ordered someone to beat the drum and summon the general.

Knock knock, Wei Kai's military village, which had been silent for many days, finally regained its vitality.

Under the call of the snare drum, the doors of each battalion were opened, and the commander of the lieutenant quickly began to discuss matters in the camp of the Chinese army.

On Chen Cang City, the head of the Bai family was also very happy when he watched the envoy he arranged enter the barracks.

You must know that when Wei Kai came to Chencang, he did not enter the county seat, but camped outside the city, showing a faint posture of encircling the county seat, which made Bai Jin's plan fail. What's even more terrifying is that Wei Kai didn't have any intention of negotiating, and after besieging Chencang, he sent troops to capture the other counties.

The gods blocked and killed the gods, the Buddha blocked and killed the Buddha, and the local resistance was wiped out by iron-blooded means, and the fields and wealth of the various clans of Chencang in other counties were confiscated, and the clans in the city were shocked three times a day.

Now that the envoys in the city have entered Wei Kai's camp, it shows that there is still room for negotiation between the two sides.

Bai Jin was most afraid that Wei Kai was an unreasonable hob meat, if the oil and salt did not enter, this would be very unfavorable to them now. As soon as the envoy entered the barracks, Bai Jin believed that the gift he had carefully prepared would definitely satisfy Wei Kai. After all, in terms of playing with mental tricks, Bai Jin, who has been in officialdom for a long time, is quite confident.

Of course, as long as Wei Kai is willing to negotiate peacefully, the clan has its own way to make Wei Kai obedient.

In the Wei Kai barracks.

A messenger with a flattering face was kneeling under Wei Kaitang, holding a thick gift slip high with both hands and saying loudly: "I heard that the general is young and famous, full of talent, and has made many contributions to the country. In order to congratulate the general on his appointment as Chencang's order, I specially presented 10 carts of goods, 5,000 stone of grain, and a number of carts of other goods."

The generals in the hall looked at the envoy of the clan in the city so low, their side had not yet begun to attack the city, and the clan began to soften, and they were very happy in their hearts, it seemed that taking the county seat of Chencang was a matter in front of them, and they knelt down and saluted Wei Kai and said: "The last general will congratulate the general."

Looking at the smiling generals in the hall, Wei Kai also smiled, and said to the envoy in a soft voice: "We are all courtiers of the Qin State, and Chen Cang's colleagues are really outside", and then let the guards around him take the gift list presented by the envoy.

The envoy under the hall saw Wei Kai accept the gift list so happily, and immediately admired the resourcefulness of his own family master, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

After all, when he first entered the barracks, the soldiers trained in the camp were all murderous, the soldiers were well-armoured, and the bows and crossbows were complete. The soldiers and soldiers are all disciplined and orderly, different from the old and weak soldiers in the county government. I began to feel anxious.

After all, the stronger the power of Wei Kai's side, the more difficult it is to satisfy his appetite, and the more difficult it will be to send this mission. Thinking of the recent rumors in the city that Wei Kai was the reincarnation of the Man-Eating Demon King, he was suddenly very worried that he would be able to return alive.

Now seeing Wei Kai's young appearance, he mustered up the courage to continue to smile at Wei Kai: "When the head of my Bai family heard that the general had not yet married a wife, he selected three people from his granddaughters to serve the general to express my Bai family's heart for the general." As soon as he finished speaking, the generals present, including Wei Kai, were very surprised.

Intermarriage among the clans was strictly observed, and intermarriage between nobles and commoners was strictly prohibited. Although Wei Kai was reused by the new monarch Yingqu Liang, in the eyes of the stubborn old clan, Wei Kai was a commoner.

In addition, the granddaughter of the Bai family can be called a noble daughter according to her ancestral title, which is an important exchange of property between the upper class. Now the Bai family is actually willing to send three daughters of their own family, and only as Wei Kai's concubine, how can Wei Kai not be surprised.

Before Wei Kai could answer, three beautiful women dressed in gorgeous clothes and wearing veils on their faces entered the tent.

I saw that the beautiful hair of the three people was fluttering, the eyebrows were curved, the nose was straight, the pink cheeks were reddish, the figure was graceful and slender, and the beauty and vulgarity were different from the rough and heroic of the Guanzhong Plain, but like a gentle and graceful guard. What's even more fateful is that as soon as they entered the camp, they looked directly at Wei Kai's beautiful eyes with dementors, and their postures were different.

The messenger looked at the stunned people in the hall, pointed to the three people and said with a smile: "These are the three pearls of my Bai clan, I hope the general will taste them carefully." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them saluted Wei Kai in unison and said softly: "The concubine pays homage to her husband, and I hope that the husband will pity the concubine more."

Looking at the beautiful woman in the hall, Wei Kai was different from the generals in the hall, and sighed slightly in his heart. The posture in front of him is just a pink skeleton without any soul, and the destruction of women in the old society is really to the extreme.

"Thank you for the kindness of the head of the Bai family", there were no extra words, Wei Kai accepted all the gifts offered by the family. When the envoy was leaving, Wei Kai personally sent him out of the village and asked him to convey his willingness to make peace with the clan, especially the Bai family.

After the envoy left, Wei Kai immediately asked the whole army to kill sheep and pigs, and put on a feast, so as to reward the camps, wear wedding clothes, and prepare to marry the three pearls of the Bai family in the camp. As a result, the orderly and heavily guarded military village suddenly became boiling and jubilant.

The envoys who entered the city immediately told the heads of the families all what they had seen and heard, and the heads of the families sitting in the county government were relieved when they learned that Wei Kai had accepted the gift and married the three young ladies of the Bai clan with great fanfare.

After all, Wei Kai's aggressive attitude some time ago really made everyone breathless.

Bai Jin, who got the news, was also very happy, thinking that his plan had finally been successfully implemented, he suddenly stood up and shouted: "Good, good, good."

The other heads of the family in the house saw the abnormal appearance of the head of the Bai family, and thought of this mission, the Bai family lost their three pearls, thinking that Bai Jin was angry and anxious, and his spirit was abnormal, so he hurriedly comforted: "The sacrifice made by the Bai family for my Chen Cang this time, my Chen Cang family and the people will not forget."

Looking at the heads of the families in the house who saluted and thanked him, Bai Jin was very amused in his heart.

Bai Jin did not feel humiliated by the dedication of the three concubines, but was very happy.

Bai Jin is different from other old clans who only know how to stick to the ancestral system, he has deeply analyzed the current national conditions of the Qin State, especially after the old clan fell into disadvantage in the battle with the new clan, he judged that the decay of the old clan could not be stopped, so he was very anxious and eager to seek other forces to protect himself.

Now that the Bai family has a relationship with Wei Kai by relying on three women, changing his current disadvantageous position and moving closer to the monarch's side, how can this not make him happy?

What's more, if the next plan fails, relying on his three granddaughters, the Bai family will not be wiped out; If the later plan is implemented, Bai Jin will be even happier, after all, he has kept his own interests, and it is not impossible to get his hands on Chen Cang's power.

Why did Bai take the initiative to offer his three pearls? First, it was to win over Wei Kai, and secondly, when Wei Kai declined, the Bai family would fully support Wei Kai to take charge of Chen Cang, so as to indirectly control Chen Cang.

As for whether Wei Kai would give in to Bai, Bai Jin was never worried.

The reason why the three pearls of the Bai family are so famous is not only because of their good appearance, but also because the Bai family spends a lot of money to adopt the method of witches, carefully training them from an early age, and doing their best to do everything in bed. Wei Kai, this young man with strong blood, how could he withstand such temptation.

Bai Jin looked at the heads of the families who saluted, and pretended to be sad and said, "Sacrifice for my Chen Cang, the Bai family has no complaints. I also hope that the heads of the family will act according to the plan in the future, break the Wei Kai thief together, and return me to a peaceful Chen Cang."

The heads of the families present were greatly moved when they heard this, and now that Wei Kai had entered the hub, he relaxed his vigilance. Thinking of this special period of time, he was surrounded in Chencang City, in and out of the evil qi that he could not suffer, as well as the loss of property, he said in unison: "Break Wei Kai together, and return me to Chen Cang."

It turned out that Bai Jin sent beauties and goods in advance, which was to show the enemy weakness and ask Wei to be vigilant.

When the military camp outside the city was busy with the banquet and neglected to take precautions, he gathered various private soldiers in the city to attack Wei Kai's military camp at night and eliminate Wei Kai to avenge the day before yesterday.
