Chapter 247: Heading North
Zeng Tu's words blew up the situation that had been basically harmonious between the two sides and finally stabilized.
The first to be vigilant was Su Ding.
His brows furrowed, and he looked at Dong Ping with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
In the open space in the north of the village before, the black-clothed man who was chasing and killing Zeng Tu and Yinjiawei was not Dong Ping?
Could it be that person is Dong Shuang himself?
Thinking of this, Su Ding's eyes instantly became gloomy, staring at Dong Ping with a solemn look not far away.
However, he didn't move.
He wanted to see how far this Dong Shuang could go.
At this time, Zeng Lane and the others had already turned around, and in an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Dong Ping.
"Looks like this misunderstanding is a bit big."
The corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and Dong Ping's relaxed voice took the lead in breaking the deadlock.
He spread out his hand and smiled at Zeng with a gloomy face: "I know, no matter what happens today, you won't believe me, will you?"
To Dong Ping's surprise, Zeng Lang did not get angry, but walked towards Zeng Tu.
When he came to him, Zeng stopped there.
"Tu'er, people are responsible for what they say."
After snorting coldly, Zeng glanced at Zeng Tu, and said in a low tone: "Why do you say that General Dong has made a move on you."
"Hehe, even if I die today, I can't forget what that person looks like."
Zeng Tu reluctantly stood firm, and said with a sneer: "I haven't fainted, I can see clearly on the ground, that man in black, there will be no second person except Dong Shuang!"
"Can you take responsibility for your words?!"
Zeng Yan shouted angrily, and his sharp eyes swept Zeng Tu's face.
"If there is negligence, the child will pay for his sin with death."
Responding-for-tat, Zeng Tu's face was extremely calm.
Zeng Lane didn't speak again, if he didn't believe it anymore, unless it wasn't the son he had made!
After turning around, Zeng Tu walked towards Dong Ping step by step.
Zeng Sheng, Zeng Suo, Zeng Mi and Shi Wengong also surrounded them, each with a grim look on their faces, it was obvious that they were not good.
Su Ding, the only one who didn't move, was just with his hands behind his back, and he didn't know when he had reached the door, but his eyes as sharp as an eagle were staring at Dong Ping in the center of the hall without letting go.
It's a good Zengtou City, it looks like it's a light enemy today!
With his hands in front of his chest, Dong Ping's calm eyes swept over everyone, and finally stopped at Su Ding and Zeng Tu.
Looks like there are some smart people here.
However, if you think I'm out of tricks today, that's a fantasy.
Shaking his head and smiling, Dong Ping suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed.
"General Dong, you really let us down."
Zeng Tu snorted coldly, held his head high and said, "If you can't explain today's matter clearly, I'm afraid I won't let you take these people away easily."
"Explain?"
Dong Ping shook his head again, and the corners of his mouth seemed to have a confident smile: "Don't get me wrong, I never said I had to explain."
"Dong Shuang, what are you still rampant about!" Shi Wengong suddenly pulled out a simple knife from the nearby weapon rack, gritted his teeth and glared angrily: "I see that you forged the Dajin Edict first, in a vain attempt to break my Zengtou City, and you dare to be arrogant here, eat me first!"
As soon as the words fell, Shi Wengong shouted violently, like wind under his legs, and the whole person rushed towards Dong Ping with a terrifying speed.
"Huh!"
A sound of air slashing sounded, Dong Ping's waist was forced, his left arm supported the ground and turned over in a volley, and the whole person had already emerged from Shi Wengong's side and back.
This Shi Wengong actually trains speed, does it seem that he is an agile general?
Hehe, no wonder he was able to suppressively defeat Qin Ming, who was not under Lin Chong, in twenty rounds, Dong Ping sneered, raised his hand and wiped some blood on his face.
This is a hard character, and now I don't think I have the slightest chance of winning against him.
"I just want to tell some people that there is a time when people look away......"
"Smack-smack!"
After standing firm, Dong Ping had no intention of attacking, just smiled and clapped his palms, his expression can be described as relaxed and leisurely.
Shi Wengong, who was originally going to be a killer, was stunned for a moment.
In less than a moment, Hu Sanniang and Liang Hongyu had already walked in from outside the house.
After Su Ding saw that the two were not carrying weapons, he didn't say anything, just went around the road.
The second girl strode into the house with her head held high, and some guards wanted to step forward to stop them, but they were shocked by their momentum, and they didn't dare to do anything.
"Dong Shuang, what do you want to do?"
Shi Wengong sneered: "What, do you want them to explain to you?"
"Haha, don't you think it's ridiculous?!"
Zeng Mi laughed and said, "Do you think we will believe in your people?"
"No, don't get me wrong."
smiled and waved her hand, Hu Sanniang just hugged her hands in front of her chest and said, "It's the people outside who want to explain to you."
"Come in." Liang Hongyu tilted her head to the back and said in a casual tone.
Sure enough, in less than a moment, a tall young man walked in.
"Are you...... The people of the Village North Inn?! ”
The first person to react was Su Ding, his brows furrowed instantly, and his fists were clenched tightly.
"Guys, what happened tonight must have been a misunderstanding."
The tall man clasped his hands into fists, bent slightly at Zeng Rong, and laughed heartily: "I, Ling Feng, am willing to guarantee with my life, an hour ago, the four of us have been gambling in the house!"
"You...... What did you say?! ”
Shi Wengong became angry in an instant, threw the Pu knife in his hand casually, grabbed Ling Feng and scolded: "Boy, don't think that you are the innkeeper, we will believe everything you say!"
"Hehe, he's not the only one."
Liang Hongyu walked over slowly, raised her head and looked at Shi Wengong and said, "A few of us can testify, how about you, what about you, what alibi do you have?"
"You ......" Shi Wengong was completely stunned for a while, let go of his hand and gritted his teeth, his eyes as if he wanted to pierce the woman in front of him.
Not to be outdone, Liang Hongyu stared at Shi Wengong with cold eyes.
Zeng Rong's brows were also twisted fiercely, and it was obvious that he was struggling to judge and choose.
"I said you did it, how? Teacher Shi, can you prove that you didn't make a move against Zeng Gongzi?" Liang Hongyu sneered: "Since you can't, don't make trouble for yourself, you might as well think about what your holy decree says, don't frame good people here!"
Shi Wengong was furious by Liang Hongyu's words, but he didn't have anything to say back, and he couldn't wait to pick up the knife and do it directly.
"Stop for Lao Tzu!"
This roar made Shi Wengong's emotions sober up a little, and when he looked back, Zeng Rong just said with a serious face: "Since there is Shopkeeper Ling to testify for them, then don't delay, Tu'er's matter will be investigated later!"
After finishing speaking, he clasped his fists with his hands to Dong Ping and said, "I'm sorry, General Dong, it's troublesome to leave as soon as possible."
"I don't have any problems, it's good to explain the misunderstanding clearly, not to mention, I'm also worried about Zeng Gongzi's injury." Dong Ping moved his whole body and smiled casually: "It's just ......"
"Teacher Su and Zeng Gongzi himself over there, I'm afraid they won't accept me." After speaking, Dong Ping turned around and looked at Su Ding and Zeng Tu with gloomy faces with a smile.
And Shi Wengong calmed down unexpectedly for some reason, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Dong Ping, you don't sell word games here!" Zeng Tu snorted coldly and smiled disdainfully: "We won't go to receive the reward, if you want to go and bring someone yourself, won't you?"
"Click!"
"Alright, be quiet!"
Following this voice, everyone found the table next to Zeng Lane, which was split in half by him.
"At this point, anyone who dares to be disrespectful to General Dong Shuang will be imprisoned!"
With almost blood-red eyes, Zeng Lang shouted: "Okay, set off immediately, don't give me any reason, I want you to arrive at Your Majesty within three days!"
Extremely reluctantly, everyone had to arch their hands and watch Zeng get out of breath and walk back to the second floor to rest.
When the others saw that tonight had made such a scene, they just sighed in their hearts and dispersed.
"Brother, how is your injury?" After leaving the hall, Hu Sanniang lowered her voice and said, "You are really, wouldn't it be nice to call us in early, why do you have to work so hard?"
"It's not a big deal." Dong Ping smiled and waved his hand, and said, "It's hard work for you two today, by the way, there are also Brother Ling Feng."
"Hey, the brothers of the rivers and lakes are righteous, why do you have to worry about such a trivial matter?" Ling Feng smiled heartily: "Big brother, my brother is not happy to see this Zengtou City, but he has no place to stay, so he has to take his wife here to make a living."
"Then how about you come to my Liangshan, be a leader, and work together for the heavens?" Dong Ping smiled and patted Ling Feng's shoulder.
"That's what my little brother wants!" Ling Feng looked up to the sky and laughed.
"This brother is a heroic man." Dong Ping smiled, put his hands behind his head, and walked and chatted with the heavy responsibility, and walked in the direction of the school field.
And Shi Wengong thought for a while, but went back to the house and called all the people in the village, and asked his brother Shi Gugong to take his wife and children and all his family wealth along the waterway and take the lead in driving to Jinguo.
Shi Wengong delayed for a moment, and when he came to the school field in Zengtou City, Dong Ping and others were already waiting there.
The main force of Zengtou City is nearly 30,000 people, and under Shi Wengong's order, the reorganization and assembly have been completed in the school yard at this moment.
Snorted coldly, Shi Wengong didn't bother to look over there, and after asking the generals at all levels to count the number of people, he was ready to set off and drive towards the border of the Jin Kingdom.
"Wait!"
"Master Dong, what's the matter with you?" Shi Wengong didn't reply, and replied angrily.
"It's better for me to lead the front team, how about Teacher Shi lead the back team?" Dong Ping spread out his hand and said with a smile.
"What, you're afraid of something happening in the back?" Shi Wengong sneered.
"You're in front, do you know Dong Ping's people?" Dong Ping said with a smile.
"......" Shi Wengong had nothing to say for a while, indeed, Dong Ping said on the side of the sand table before that he could break through from Qingxian, because the people stationed there were sworn brothers he had grown up with.
Then, he will have a way to get Dong Ping to retire.
The reason why Zeng Lane agreed to this method was because even if the troops went outside and Dong Ping refused to retreat, he could attack inside and outside and completely encircle and annihilate the enemy army.
Waving his hand impatiently, Shi Wengong stepped onto his war horse, and a group of tens of thousands of troops, led by him and Dong Ping, had already embarked on the steps to the border of the Jin Kingdom.
At dawn, they marched to Qingxian in a hurry.
Sure enough, as Dong Ping said, when the army stationed there heard that Dong Ping was coming, they immediately got out of the way and let the 30,000 troops pass.
At this time, Shi Wengong's vigilance against Dong Ping was lowered by half.
The next journey was relatively boring, Shi Wengong lay on the carriage and slept all day, but his soldiers were elated, after all, they could be rewarded by Emperor Dajin soon.
In the early morning of the third day, Shi Wengong received news from Tanma that Dong Ping had withdrawn from the periphery of Zengtou City, and now he was gone.
And Zeng Rong was preparing to report to the imperial court that Dong Ping had openly rebelled.
When Shi Wengong learned the news, he laughed on the spot, and completely let go of Dong Ping's vigilance.
Dong Ping was bored, so he took a copy of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Sun Tzu's Art of War bought from the system and read it.
"Brother, what are you?"
Hu Sanniang looked at the book that Dong Ping was flipping through casually, almost all of them were in fonts she had never seen before, and she couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
"Oh, it's nothing, it's a codebook, it's just used to record military intelligence during war, I'll take it and flip through it." Dong Ping smiled and simply put the book away, lest he would be half tired to death after explaining.
Within a few days, everyone had arrived at the Song-Jin border.
Because the Jin State paid tribute for three whole years, Tianzuo Emperor Long Yan Dayue gave this Liucheng, which was originally the Liao State, to the Jin people with a wave of his hand, so as to facilitate their business with the Song people.
At this time, almost everyone, including Shi Wengong, was ecstatic.
After all, after lurking in the shabby place of Zengtou City for so long, they can finally get the reward of the Dajin Emperor and enjoy the glory and wealth to the fullest.
"Hehe, Lao Tzu has finally arrived."
Looking at the city that was close at hand, Shi Wengong tried his best to suppress the ecstasy in his heart, but the excitement was still overflowing.
Zengtou City, Lao Tzu Shi Wengong from today onwards, is a big gold minister!
While laughing wildly, Shi Wengong strode into the city gate, as if glory and wealth were close at hand.
However, the smoke and dust in the distance were rapidly approaching.
The sound of fluttering horses' hooves and the wind and sand attracted everyone's attention.
No one noticed when Dong Ping and his party disappeared.
In fact, these people don't have the heart to pay attention.
"Heavy ...... Major Intelligence, Zeng ...... Zengtou City has been broken by the enemy army, and Teacher Su and the eldest prince don't know whether they are alive or dead! ”
