Chapter 90: First Suffer from the Heart
The leader of the thieves was forced by his momentum, did not dare to bully each other, and said in a trembling voice: "There are only a group of officers and soldiers about 500 horsemen, escorting the convoy to pass by, and we are waiting for the order of General Suzaku to intercept it, who knows that this group of officers and soldiers is extremely strong, and we and other 3,000 people can't stop it, but they only raid with bows and arrows, injuring more than a dozen of them, and killing us to a rout, but they seem to have something urgent, escorting a few carts and horses away." These horses were captured by our troops during the raid. β
Lu Bu asked, "Where did you go?" β
The leader replied, "To the southeast, I think I went to Mengjin Port." β
Lu Bu knew that he hated that this gang of thieves dared to break ground on Tai Sui's head, cut his throat with a sword, and went straight to Mengjin Port.
When he arrived at the Mengjin Ferry, he saw the smoke billowing in front of him, and the fire in the tents and warehouses everywhere was sporadic and Lu Bu'an sighed that he was one step too late.
When I entered the ferry, I saw the corpses of the ragged thieves everywhere, lying vertically inside and outside the ferry, the smoke of gunpowder was everywhere, choking the mouth and nose, and there were traces of the fire burning everywhere, leaving only sporadic flames dancing.
Lu Bu saw that the arrow in the thief's body was the standard configuration of the light cavalry in Bingzhou, Lu Bu looked around, where was there a living figure within a radius of several miles, the ferries on the north and south banks of the Yellow River were all burned, and he didn't know if Cai Yan and they had crossed the river.
Lu Bu said that he was here to save people, in fact, he also knew in his heart that even if these thousands of anti-thieves were on the line, they couldn't take Cai Yan's five hundred cavalry, this was a serious light cavalry under Lu Bu's command, although it was not dazzling than heavy cavalry, but the light cavalry was as fast as the wind, and the cavalry was better at archery, and the task of escorting the convoy was naturally none other than light cavalry.
Lu Bu came in a hurry, but he came to see her for the last time under the pretext of saving people. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come alone.
Lu Bu looked at the slowly flowing water of the Yellow River, and felt melancholy in his heart, it was really a late step, a late step, in Cai Yan's place, he never seemed to have arrived earlier.
When he was sighing near the river, he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and saw dozens of horses rolling and running.
The person at the head is none other than Wei Yue.
Wei Yue had just approached Lu Bu, and his foothold was not stable, so he heard Lu Bu say: "Kill Meng Jin with me!" β
Lu Bu went first, Wei Yue and the others turned their horses' heads, and followed Lu Bu to Mengjin County.
β¦β¦
Wang Ji looked at the prosperous and majestic Mengjin City in front of him, and was not amazed. I have heard the name of Mengjin for a long time, and this time I came to Merge for the first time after resigning, so I naturally wanted to see the world-famous Mengjin City.
Wang Ji passed through the bustling streets, saw the bustling merchants, the teahouse and the restaurant were overcrowded, passed through the bustling market, and came to the west of Mengjin City, which is the first floor of Mengjin that has become famous recently, also known as Shenzhou College.
In the square in front of Shenzhou College, there is a huge inscription, on which are engraved with countless strange and familiar names, closely clustered together, composing a poem like a tragic and magnificent song.
Under the inscription, there are no math students tourists stop to watch, and there is a special arrangement of the academy to explain, this young man obviously has some research on the history of this inscription, at this time he is talking like a river: "I just said so much, I think everyone wants to know the origin of this inscription, and who are the names on this inscription?" β
Seeing that everyone nodded with anticipation, the young man said with satisfaction: "The origin of this inscription will start from three years ago. β
Three years ago, Lu Bu led dozens of cavalry of the Hou Mansion Guards, killed the thieves defending the city, and rushed into Mengjin County, killing all the people he met along the way, regardless of men, women and children. The thieves raised more than 5,000 soldiers, but they couldn't stop for a moment, and more than 50 rode under the leadership of Lu Bu, like a hell Shura, people blocked and killed, and Buddha blocked and killed Buddha, but in one day, there was no breath left in Mengjin County. When Lu Bu was leaving, he also set a fire and burned this Mengjin into ruins.
Everyone listened to the young man's explanation, and then imagined the scene in their minds, and they all gasped, although this legend has been circulated for a long time, but from the young man's mouth, it is still terrifying.
The people of Mengjin City were slaughtered at that time, and no one remembered the events at that time. And the person who leaked this rumor is said to be one of the more than fifty cavalrymen who followed Lu Bu in the Hou Mansion back then!
It is said that this cavalryman was later drunk in the Qinglou, and when he was drunk, he was bewitched by others, and he blurted out in a hurry. It was not known whether it was true or not, but this rumor was the only one that put all the people in place, and the cavalryman was never seen again.
A young man dressed as a student asked: "We all know that it is precisely because the prince and the marquis killed too much that he learned from the pain and rebuilt this Mengjin City. It is precisely because we admire the achievements of the prince and the marquis that we joined this Shenzhou Academy, and I only hope that one day, we can fight side by side with the prince and the marquis. β
The young man sighed helplessly: "Senior Brother Lu Rong, I know you are a die-hard fan of Junhou, but please don't interrupt me, okay?" β
Lu Rong made a generous statement, expressed what he thought in his heart, felt very happy, and said with a smile: "Senior Miheng, continue." β
Mi Heng explained and then continued: "I know the origin of this inscription, and the names on this inscription are not difficult to guess, yes, these names are the innocent people who died in Mengjin County that day." β
After speaking, he sighed a few times, and then said: "The city gate is on fire, and the fish in the pond are affected. The tragic death of these innocent people has caused the prince to be slandered for two years, and the princes of all parties have called him a butcher, in fact, in the heart of the prince and the prince, this is not a regrettable? β
Wang Ji heard him excuse Lu Bu, and said with a sneer: "The cat cries and the mouse is fake compassion, if Lu Bu had a trace of benevolence at that time, how could he implicate so many innocent people, looking at the names on the inscription, thousands, how can such sins be washed away by a few false words of false benevolence and false righteousness?" β
Everyone in the audience was shocked, in this Lu Bu's territory, someone dared to speak like this, could it really be that the title of butcher was given for nothing?
Seeing that he was disrespectful to his idol, Lu Rong was immediately furious, rolled up his sleeves and scolded: "Where did the mountain village man come from, the merits of the prince shook the past and the present, can he let me and other students study and practice martial arts for free, can others?" He can let everyone in the state get free treatment, can others? If you don't have a landless family, you don't even need to farm, you just need to go down to the well to work to feed and clothe the whole family, can others? I don't think you look like a person from my state, you have come from afar, but have you seen such prosperity elsewhere? β
Wang Wei was speechless for a while, he never came to merge the state, and sure enough, everyone he saw was beaming, the men were dressed in brocade and boots, the women wore gold and silver, and the doors of their homes were wide open, and they were not afraid of stealing chickens and touching dogs. This kind of grand occasion is really unseen and unheard of!
Thinking of the tragic situation in Luoyang at this time, Ma Chao, Han Sui, Yu Ban and others each supported their own troops and did not interact with each other.
And the officials in Luoyang have already complained, and the imperial court has not even been able to distribute the officials' salaries for half a year, and the officials are still like this, and the common people are naturally even more miserable.
Wang Ji himself and his family came to Bingzhou for refuge, passing through the suburbs of Luoyang, the tragic situation was worse than in the city, the roadside was starving all over the wilderness, the grass was full of bones, and the tragic situation he saw made Wang Ji cry countless times. Thinking of his talent, he wanted to reimburse the emperor and benefit the people. But this decree of the DPRK and China cannot be reached, and the holy decree is issued frequently, sometimes Ma Chao just gave the order to eat, and Han Sui came back to order to smash the pot, and then Yu Ban came to order to sleep.
The royal decree became the private weapon of the courtiers, and whoever wanted to issue it could do whatever he wanted.
Ma Chao proclaimed himself a general, how could this Han Sui be left behind? Immediately after that, he proclaimed himself the Great Sima! Yu Ban was a little weaker, and he couldn't compare to them, so he proclaimed himself a hussar general!
The three of you sang and I appeared on the stage, turning a famous capital of Luoyang upside down, and the people complained.
Wang Yu was speechless when asked, his face turned red, and he said after half a sound: "So what, can this clear his name for innocently killing thousands of people?" β
Lu Rong's face turned pale by his anger, and he said indignantly: "What do you know, after the prince returned to Anyi that day, he knew that he had caused a big disaster, so he wanted to apologize for his crimes, and was begged to be stopped by his wife Yan and a group of civil and military personnel. Aren't you one of them? β
Wang Jian suddenly laughed, and said secretly: Yes, didn't I just hear that Bingzhou was stable and prosperous, and I have not been moved by military disasters for many years, so I took my whole family and moved here? Although Lu Bu was brutal, he was impressed by his methods of helping the world and the country.
As soon as Lu Bu arrived in Bingzhou, he first united with Yuan Shao to quell the rebellion of Zhang Yan of the Montenegrin Army, and then started with graphite, gathering the available resources in the world in his hands, and deterring the Southern Xiongnu with heavy troops, making them loyal and subjugant, monopolizing the horse business, and also using Huang Chengyan and other celebrities as masters to sell and sell various ordnance crossbows. Now that the war has been raging for many years, he has earned most of the ordnance business.
And he is not greedy for merit, he will use all the money he earns to help the people's livelihood, the orphans of the poor, the old without step-bys, the bereaved families of martyrs, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, who have not inherited his favor, and the state and the state are in unison, a prince is touching.
And this Mengjin is adjacent to Yizhou in the east, Bingzhou in the north, and Sizhou in the south, and people from all walks of life gather here, but in just three years, on a piece of ruins, a giant city of Hongdu will rise from the ground, which can be called a miracle in the world!
Then a child ran through the square, quacking and laughing, staggering several times and about to fall, surrounded by a large group of female guards, following closely as if he were afraid of falling.
Lu Rong's eyes lit up, and he squeezed out of the crowd and shouted, "Little boy! β
When the child heard this, his eyes were like black gems, and the brilliance in them was so far and deep that people felt infinite joy at the first glance.
The child smiled slightly, and there was some maturity that did not match his age, and said, "It turned out to be Xiaorong, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you miss me?" β
Lu Rong giggled with laughter, only to feel that this little boy was too likable, so he walked in and squatted down to look at him at eye level, and said, "Don't ask me to go to Xiaorong, call me brother." β
The little boy couldn't help laughing, and said in his ear: "Others can't see it, I have already seen it, you are obviously a woman, but you are dressed as a man, to be honest, are you trying to seduce my father?" β
Lu Rong's surprise is not trivial, she has been raised as a boy since she was a child, a few years ago in the Yizhou chaos, her family was wrapped in the Montenegrin Military Association, and she became one of them inexplicably.
Later, LΓΌ Bu broke Zhang Yan and received a large number of troops when he was in Yecheng, but LΓΌ Rong was only young and underage, so he was assigned to miscellaneous soldiers as labor.
However, she was diligent and studious, intelligent and self-motivated, and became a steward in just one year.
Lu Bu later worked hard, ran around to inspect, saw that she was sharp and sharp, and she was comfortable with all kinds of dangerous things, quite a general's style, and was very appreciative.
And along the way during this period, she always regarded herself as a man, and others never saw through it, but this little boy could see through it at a glance, and said such shocking words, she couldn't help but be shocked and inexplicable, and her face changed color.
Lu Rong was shocked: "How do you know?" β
The little boy said with an innocent face: "You hugged me, how could I not know?" β
Lu Rong is a man's ambition, and now he has a wide career path, if his identity is revealed, his previous efforts may be in vain, after all, there has never been a record of a woman becoming an official before.
In his heart, he took the little boy's hand and begged: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not interested in men, you see that my brother is so good to you, you must keep it secret for me." β
The little boy rolled his big eyes with a look of innocence: "It's not impossible to keep it secret or something, unless you kiss me." β
Lu Rong saw that his eyebrows were clear and beautiful, like a white jade carving, and when a child was childish, his chubby little face made people want to take a bite, and said with a sweet smile: "What's so difficult about this?" β
I was about to get close to him and kiss him on the face, but I heard a voice from afar: "Let go of my brother!" β
Lu Rong heard the voice, frowned, and secretly shouted that something was wrong: he should have thought that since the little boy appeared, she must have been nearby.
Following the prestige, I saw a girl running and jumping, and the seven ups and downs were already approaching, leaving a cadre of female guards behind behind him.
The girl was dressed in a purple dress, about five or six years old, with a heroic eyebrow between her eyebrows, her eyes were as sharp as a sword, and she glanced at everyone present.
Lu Rong knew her temperament, so he didn't dare to look at her, so he leaned over and bowed, "Miss is well." β
The girl looked disdainful, didn't pay attention to her, pulled the little boy into her arms, and reprimanded: "How can you run around, my father is looking for you everywhere, and he is in a hurry." β
The little boy grinned and said, "Sister, let's get rid of my anger, it's not beautiful to be so vicious." β
