Wang Fang and the others came to the gate of the palace, set up a table, and sent someone to hang the recruitment order that had been copied to the city. For a while, it attracted a lot of people to join in the fun.

Someone whispered: "This is a rebellion, and it is to punish the Nine Clans." ”

Someone sneered after hearing this, "It's all forced by the government, what is there to say, the government doesn't give us a way to live, what can we do, we can only find a way out by ourselves!" ”

For a while, everyone was a little hesitant, there were not many successes in this kind of thing in ancient times, do you really want to do this?

Seeing that no one stepped forward, Wang Fang looked at Ling Xuzi. Ling Xuzi understood, walked out, and said loudly: "The night before yesterday, I watched the sky at night and found that the vision from the sky was in the southwest, and it was the main Jiaozhou Guanhai City. Therefore, this is a sign from heaven that great things can be accomplished. Besides, the government didn't care about the lives of the people, and tortured and killed the loyal and good uncle Yang, the people's hearts were turned back, the nobles were in power, and the emperor was weak and incompetent. Shouldn't we be grateful for the virtue of a good life in God? At this time, the general of Tiankou descended, Wang Fang. Poor and talented, he became the first person to join the army, and sought stability for the people with his own modest efforts! ”

After Ling Xuzi finished speaking, he strode up and wrote his name on the bamboo slip: Hu Zhe.

Wang Fang still saw that everyone was hesitant, and said loudly: "We have killed the dog official Tang He last night, this is his head!" ”

Everyone was shocked and stepped forward to watch, and someone recognized it: "This ...... It's really the head of that dog officer, haha...... What a joy! I'm going to join the army, kill all the dog officers, and let them bully us again! ”

For a while, the people who joined the army wrote their names on the bamboo slips on the desk and stood to the side.

In one day, thousands of people joined in. Wang Fang laughed when he saw it, who would have thought that there would be such a good effect.

Towards the end of the evening, Wang Fang gave a tael of silver to the person who wrote his name, and asked them to go back to settle the family and meet here on time tomorrow.

Not long after Wang Fang and Ling Xuzi returned to Zhuangshang, Wang Qing also returned.

"How are the gates today?"

Wang Qing poured a sip of tea, "Don't worry, big brother, there were not many defenders in this city, plus Tang He sent out a lot of land expropriation, only more than 20 brothers died, which can be regarded as a complete victory." ”

"Okay," Wang Fang looked at the silent Ling Xuzi and said, "What is the Dao Chief thinking?" ”

"The only thing we have to do at the beginning is to recruit Xiang Yong, but although we have stepped up the time to block the news, I am afraid that it will still be known to the defenders of the Silent Pass, but we don't need to be too anxious, the food and grass hoarded on the Assassin's Mansion are enough for us to reserve new soldiers."

Wang Qing sighed after hearing this, "What is that Dao Chang worried about, and it makes us a little worried." ”

Ling Xuzi frowned slightly, "What Poor Dao is worried about is that Zhao Fangnai, the silent guard, is a veteran, who has been killed for a long time, and should not be underestimated. Although there are not many defenders in the silent pass, only more than 10,000 people, if it drags on for a long time, it will be a little disadvantageous for us after all. ”

"Didn't you say that the imperial court didn't have soldiers and horses to send reinforcements? What are you afraid of, anyway, we have enough food and grass, so we can just beat it slowly. Wang Qing said.

Wang Fang picked up his brother's words and said: "Because of the decline of the prison in recent years, there are very few troops stationed in the south of the Yuan River, as long as we don't delay too late, there will be nothing to do." Although Zhao Fang is powerful, after all, there is a shortage of soldiers and major generals under his command, and the food and salary have been taken by those corrupt officials and corrupt officials. Counting the reinforcements from Pingzhou and Hezhou, there are not many people in just a few days. ”

Ling Xuzi got up, "It's a poor way to worry too much, but general, don't delay the time for more than ten days, when the army is in a fierce battle, you can send troops as soon as possible and take the silent pass." ”

After Ling Xuzi finished speaking, Wang Qing pursed his lips, "This old Taoist priest is talking nonsense, and the eldest brother has seen it, and he is still talking there." I think the skills are mediocre. ”

"Second brother, start talking nonsense again. Today, when recruiting the townsfolk at the gate of the government, I have to thank him, he took the lead. ”

Someone brought some food, and the two brothers talked as they ate. "Big brother, how many people do you think we can have in ten days? It's too little, but it can't attack the Silent Pass, even if it is defeated, it will lose a lot, and it will be difficult to enter Pingzhou at that time. ”

Wang Fang thought for a while, and said: "According to my estimate, there should be one or two hundred thousand people, today is the beginning, I took the money from the dog official of the Assassin Shi Mansion to do a good favor, I think more people will come from tomorrow." ”

"That's good." Wang Qing went back to the house to rest after eating, Wang Fang called the attendant standing outside the door, leaned into his ear and said a few words, and the man hurried out.

Since then, the Zhuangzi has calmed down again overnight, but the people of Guanhai City in Jiaozhou can't calm down, and the news that the Wang brothers and the two brothers want to avenge Yang Gong quickly spread, and it was already known in less than a night.

Some people shook their heads and sighed when they heard it, thinking that it was another big farce, but some people didn't think so, they felt that they should stand up, so they looked for relatives and friends everywhere, planning to go to the gate of the Assassin's Mansion to sign up for the army as soon as it was dawn.

Just when the two brothers of Guanhai City Wang Fang stepped up their recruitment of village warriors, one of them rode a fast horse and went straight to Mojiaoguan, his clothes were tattered and stained with blood. This person is a family member in Tang He's mansion, named Bai Ye. That night, when Wang Qing slaughtered everyone in the house, he pretended to be dead and lay down in the corpse, but fortunately he was not found, and after Wang Qing led the people away, he hurriedly ran to the stable and pulled a fast horse and fled.

It had been three days, Bai Ye had fled all the way, the grain of rice had not entered, and the bumps on the horse's back were really unbearable, so he dismounted and walked, and let the horse rest a little, eat two mouthfuls of weeds, drink some mountain springs by himself, and then hurried away.

Finally, in the early morning of the fifth day, he saw the arrow tower of the Silent Pass, and Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the first rays of sunlight shining from the arrow tower on the wall of the Silent Pass, he felt that he was alive again.

This silent prison was established in the period of Emperor Taizu, at the beginning of the founding of Emperor Taizu, because of the war, the people of the world have long been tired, and they are no longer able to stop the invasion of the declining prison people, Emperor Taizu has no choice but to let people build a male pass here, named the silent prison, aiming to resist the attack of the declining prison.

It was not until Emperor Gaozu succeeded to the throne that after more than 40 years of recuperation, the dynasty gradually rejuvenated, and then sent the general Gan Yuxi out of the Mojiao Pass, repelled the declining prison people, and recovered Jiaozhou and other places in one fell swoop.

More than a hundred years later, by the time of Emperor Wuzong, the northern part of Zhao was invaded by the Yunluo people and the Bosang people, and Wuzong put great efforts on the northern border, causing the southern part to slowly become empty. However, because of a series of civil strife after the change of the throne and the seizure of the crown prince, the people of the declining prison were no longer able to crusade eastward, so the southern part of the Zhao State was basically stable.

However, because of this, there were very few defenders in the south of Zhao State, only Zhao Fang of the Silent Pass led more than 10,000 people, and even fewer of the defenders who passed the Silent Pass to Pingzhou and Hezhou.

The city wall of Mogaoguan is a case of bluestone piled up, in order to build the pass, Emperor Taizu recruited a lot of people, because of the huge amount of work, the people were killed and injured a lot, and a people's rebellion broke out. But fortunately, after five years, this Xiongguan was finally completed.

Bai Ye pulled the horse and limped into the city, he wanted to go to the General's Mansion as soon as possible, but he was afraid that he would be treated as a beggar, and he couldn't even get past the armor soldiers standing at the door of the General's Mansion, how could he see Zhao Fang.

Bai Ye was in a hurry, and he didn't have a tael of silver on him, how could this be good?

Looking at the majestic general's mansion in front of him, Bai Ye was a little anxious, if he couldn't inform them of the news of the Jiaozhou rebellion as soon as possible, he was afraid that the defenders would not be able to gather in a hurry, and the thieves would take advantage of the gap in a hurry.

Thinking of this, Bai Ye had no choice but to step forward. The soldiers on both sides blocked the way: "Hey, go beg elsewhere, this is the General's Mansion!" ”

Bai Ye wiped a handful of dirt from his face, and said with a smile: "This military master, I am not a beggar, I am a family member in the Tang He Mansion of Jiaozhou Assassin Shi, I have a big event to see the general, and I hope to let me in, this matter cannot be delayed." ”

Jia Shi sneered: "It is rumored that Lord Tang has a lot of money in his mansion, how can his family be so shabby?" Don't laugh, leave quickly, otherwise the military master will be unkind. ”

"Hey, Master Jun......" Bai Ye still wanted to say something, but the armorer was already a little impatient and was about to raise his hand to drive away. Bai Ye had no choice but to retreat.

"What can I do about this?" Bai Ye was so anxious that he turned around.

Suddenly, the gate of the General's Mansion opened, and a young man in iron armor and a red cloak came out, and the armor soldiers on both sides saluted slightly: "I've seen the young general!" ”

The young man snorted, raised his leg and was about to walk away. Bai Ye saw that the man was born heroic, and those armor soldiers called him a young general, so he must be Zhao Fang's son.

Bai Ye hurriedly pounced and knelt in front of the young man, the young man was startled, and the entourage behind him was about to step forward to drive away, but was stopped by the young man.

The young man leaned down, pulled Bai Ye up, and asked, "What's the matter with you?" Don't you suffer any grievances, don't worry, although to General Ben, General Ben will make the decision for you! ”

Bai Ye hurriedly said: "Young General, I am a person from the Jiaozhou Assassin Mansion, and I have a major military situation to ask to see General Zhao, if it is late, I am afraid that there will be a big change." ”

When the young man heard that it was Tang He's person in Jiaozhou, he was also a little disdainful, and he was silent everywhere, but he also heard that Tang He relied on his family to oppress the people everywhere, forcibly bought good land, and those who did not agree were beaten severely, and some people died because of it.

The young man hesitated, not knowing whether to take him back or not. Bai Ye hurriedly said: "Major General, there is a rebellion in Jiaozhou!" ”

The young man was taken aback, "Quick, bring this man back to the house!" The entourage grabbed Bai Ye's arm, supported him and walked towards the general's mansion.

Bai Ye was already in a state of distress because he had not eaten the grain for a long time, coupled with the bumps on the horse's back, and at this moment, someone was supporting him, and he couldn't help but fall into a drowsy.
