Chapter 959: I don't want to leave
"My lord, I'm back," Wang Degui was naturally very happy to see Zhang Fan, but he didn't forget, and before he reported to Zhang Fan, his task was not completed, "I have completed the task assigned by the adult, this time we have killed the pomegranate generals under Wang Gao, and there are dozens of other partial generals, I heard that Wang Gao is now so angry that he is jumping to his feet, and he is seriously ill, "This can be regarded as the style of the army that Wang Degui still carried."
"You ......" Hearing Wang Degui say this, Zhang Fan couldn't help but be a little surprised, he looked at Wang Degui, and he couldn't speak for a while.
And Wang Degui saw Zhang Fan's appearance, and immediately understood what Zhang Fan meant, he still looked honest, and smiled, "My lord sees it well, they already know my identity," It turned out that Zhang Fan heard Wang Degui's words just now and called him Lord, and he understood the matter, and Wang Degui was naturally able to see what Zhang Fan meant, and immediately explained.
It turned out that it wasn't that these people were really sharp-eyed and saw Wang Degui's identity; It's not that Wang Degui's acting skills are insufficient, where he revealed his identity, Wang Degui's acting skills are very good, fully showing a person with high martial arts who fell into the grass and was hunted down by the court for a long time before he was arrested, and others can't see that Wang Degui has any flaws at all.
There is only one reason for these people to know Wang Degui's identity, that is, this is what Wang Degui told them, as for why Wang Degui said this, it was not because he deliberately violated Zhang Fan's order, I still remember that at that time, for a period of time, Wang Gao's subordinates had more than ten generals who were successfully assassinated by them, and these people finally became vigilant, and they did not dare to hold it up, not only agreed to Wang Gao's request to send people to protect them, but also strengthened their vigilance, making it difficult for Wang Degui to succeed.
Originally, according to Zhang Fan's intentions, being able to assassinate the other party's ten generals already made Zhang Fan feel good, and also met his requirements to disturb Wang Gao's position, when this incident happened, these people's actions became extremely difficult, at this time, if they came back, Zhang Fan would also abide by the agreement, after all, they had completed their requirements.
What's more, if it weren't for the fact that they were in the deep mountains of the northeast and couldn't contact them at all, Zhang Fan would have wanted to let them come back at that time, of course, the main reason was because Wang Degui was there, and Zhang Fan didn't want Wang Degui to be hurt by this.
However, Wang Degui did not do what Zhang Fan wanted, maybe it should be said that it was not that he didn't understand what Zhang Fan meant, but this was him by Zhang Fan, and it could even be said with a request, this was the first thing he was asked to do by Zhang Fan, how could he not take it to heart, he hoped that he could do better.
However, this is just Wang Degui's thoughts, for others, the task given to them by Zhang Fan has been completed, as long as they go back at that time, Zhang Fan will be able to give them freedom, so, after Wang Gao's people have strengthened their vigilance and made it difficult for them to start, these people don't want to do that, after all, it will become very dangerous, and the reason why they agreed to Zhang Fan's request to do this thing is for their own freedom and no longer being hunted down, But if he lost his life because of this incident, it would be more than worth the loss, so no one wanted to continue doing it at that time.
And Wang Degui is not a reckless man, he understands that if this matter leaves these people, it will definitely not work on his own, and it can even be said that if these people do not work together, this matter will not be done at all.
Therefore, Wang Degui told them his identity, and these people were really surprised after knowing Wang Degui's identity, although it was not enough to kill, after all, at that time, they had been together for more than a month, between this life and death, Wang Degui had saved the lives of many of them, but even so, after they knew Wang Degui's identity, they still wanted to go up and beat him, but it was just because Wang Degui's skills were in the way, and no one did it.
However, although Wang Degui said his identity, he didn't actually think too much about it, but in the end, Wang Degui persuaded them to continue to do it, relying on what to rely on, relying on just the sense of justice that exists in everyone's heart, which may sound a little ridiculous, but that's the case.
After Wang Degui accepted Zhang Fan's task, he also learned some of the situation of these people, no matter what these people did to be arrested by Jinyiwei, but they were able to be released by Zhang Fan to do this, these people were naturally selected by Zhang Fan, and some of them may have really committed a lot of things and killed a lot of people, but their nature is not the kind that is bad to the bone, and there is still a trace of human nature, and because of the particularity of this matter, The twenty people selected by Zhang Fan this time are all Han without exception.
And Wang Degui just told them that Wang Gao was going to rebel, and once the rebellion started, maybe Li Chengliang was well prepared and could wipe out Wang Gao's rebellious army, but there would be many sacrifices, and when the time came, the most dead were the people and officers and soldiers, for the Jurchens, these people could not care about the life or death of the Jurchens, but for ordinary people, it would not be possible to say that they didn't have a little idea, after all, none of these people had reached the point of being inhumane.
As for the officers and soldiers, as far as they are concerned, although they care, they do not care very much, after all, these officers and soldiers have chased and killed them, and they have also killed many of their brothers, although they are not the same person, but in the eyes of these people, the officers and soldiers are officers and soldiers, and there is no difference.
But Wang Degui's words really moved them, after all, these officers and soldiers were also ordinary people before joining the army, and they were also unarmed people who just wanted to fill their stomachs, and especially in the northeast, there are only two possibilities for people in the army, one is to eat, and the second is to protect their families, after all, the northeast side has been harassed by the Jurchens and Tatars all the year round, and it is not much more stable than the northern Xinjiang.
These people are just ordinary people who want to protect themselves, and under the narration of Wang Degui, a person with personal experience, although there is no gorgeous tone, but it is extremely touching, not to mention, among these more than 20 people, there are also many people who have been in the army and have killed the enemy, Wang Degui's words made them empathize, and reminded them of why they went back to join the army.
In short, no matter what, these people were persuaded by Wang Degui and continued to carry out the task assigned by Zhang Fan, and then, until today, they completed the task and returned.
When Wang Degui was explaining, Zhang Fan stood there and listened to him quietly, and his eyes glanced at the more than 20 people from time to time, but he didn't find any special changes in them, which made Zhang Fan have some thoughts in his heart.
"Okay, since you're back, that's good," Zhang Fan said, "I understand that you are in a hurry to come back, and you have been traveling for three days, and you are tired when you think about it, if you haven't eaten, the yamen has been prepared, and if you want to rest, please take care of yourself, Wang Degui, you come with me, I have something to tell you,"
"Hey, dog ......" Just as Zhang Fan wanted to turn around and leave, one of them shouted at him, but the word "dog official" was not said yet, but he was stopped by himself, maybe because of this, even he himself may not be able to figure it out, "You...... You promised us that when this matter is over, you will let us go, and you will no longer trouble us, and now that your business has been done, it is time to let us go, or do you plan to talk or not?"
"Of course not," hearing his words, Zhang Fan looked at him and said with a smile, "This matter is what I promised you, then I will naturally do what I say, if any of you can't wait, leave now, I promise that no one will stop you."
"What I just meant is that you have worked hard for more than two months, and now you have a three-day journey back, you must be very tired, so I plan to treat you a little, there is nothing special, just a banquet, if you are not satisfied, or say what else you want, even if you put it forward, as long as it is not difficult, I will satisfy you.
"As for your freedom, as I just said, as long as you want to go, you can go at any time, even now, and no one will stop you,"
"Then what if ......" After listening to Zhang Fan's words, the man spoke, and it seemed a little difficult to say, but he thought about it and said, "What if we don't want to leave,"
"What are you talking about," At that moment, after Zhang Fan heard his words, he immediately thought that he had heard it wrong, after all, these people were all caught by Jinyiwei, although they didn't kill them, but they didn't plan to let them go out again, freedom is definitely the thing they want the most for these people, and now, freedom is in front of their eyes, and they actually say that they don't want to leave, which makes Zhang Fan naturally unable to figure it out.
"I said we didn't want to go," said the man, "though you set us free, but you also said that if we do what we did before, we will be arrested again, but, I suppose that none of us can bear not to do it, and in that case, it is better to stay."
Although he didn't make it clear, but Zhang Fan was thinking, he immediately knew what he meant, and said: "If you want to stay, I am naturally welcome, but have you figured it out?"
"We have long understood this," the man replied to Zhang Fan,
