Chapter 62: Gangneung
On the 10th day of the seventh month of the fourth year of Yuankang, the people of Jiangling City competed to deliver a shocking news to them: Zheng Sheng had entered the city!
Zheng Shengjin is naturally Gangneung City.
So in the eyes of the vast majority of people, it is an extremely unexpected thing.
After all, this is Shi Chong's lair. Not long ago, Zheng Sheng hurriedly passed by Jiangling City and "didn't dare" to step into Jiangling City half a step.
However, why did Zheng Sheng dare to enter Jiangling after a short period of time? This is the first question that arises in everyone's minds after hearing about this.
People flocked to the east gate of Gangneung Fortress and watched as a procession of several loaded carts and more than a dozen young people entered the gate. The soldiers at the gate of the city cowered, not daring to hinder them in the slightest.
Because they saw the blood stains on these people's clothes, and they also saw the anger and murderous spirit in their eyes.
But the onlookers didn't care, they discussed it excitedly.
"Which one is Zheng Sheng?"
"I don't know, but I heard that Zheng Sheng entered the city earlier."
"They even went into the city in batches?"
"Who knows what's going on?"
"These people have gone to the state capital!"
"Are they trying to do it?"
Wan Yun and Wang Jun walked forward in silence, but the rest of the team began to distribute some pieces of paper full of words in their hands to the people present.
After circulating the pieces of paper to each other, the doubts in the hearts of Gangneung people were instantly dispelled.
The words on these pieces of paper are exactly the same, and they only tell one thing, Zheng Sheng's marriage convoy encountered the yellow silk thief, but they did not fail, but defeated the arrogant thief.
This was news that shocked the entire Gangneung Fortress.
Huang Juan, that's a taboo topic that can only be whispered in private! As the saying goes, dare to be angry but dare not speak. This is actually the attitude of Jingzhou people towards Shi Chong and Huang Juan thief.
Huang Juan, that is a "cavalry" that Shi Chong bothered to operate with the elite generals who had been fighting on the battlefield for a long time and left behind by his ancestors as the core.
Zheng Sheng defeated the Yellow Silk Thief?
How is this possible?
But when the convoy arrived at the gate of the state capital, Wanyun motioned for the guards to open the cowhide covering the cart. Truckloads of bloody battle robes, yellow turbans, and torn knives piled up on the cart.
Wanyun dismounted and saluted at the soldiers at the gate of the state capital: "I am Nanyang Wanyun, and today I am ordered by the son of my family to dedicate to Lord Thorn Shi the stolen goods that my family was robbed by thieves in Nanjun a few days ago, and the counterattack. These things all belong to the yellow silk thieves who have been raging in Jingzhou in recent years, please ......"
Wan Yun just mentioned the yellow silk thief, who were still lazily leaning against the door wall, and the soldiers who regarded Wan Yun's behavior as a good show were suddenly shocked, and they ran back to the door in embarrassment, closing the door, probably to spread the news.
But after a long time, the state capital remained closed, as if there was no one at all.
Wan Yun took a deep breath and ordered the loot to be thrown off the cart and piled up in front of the state capital for everyone to watch.
Wan Yun and the others left the state capital and went to Zheng's house in the east square of Jiangling City.
On this day, the Jingzhou Prefecture has been closed its door.
Although, the Zheng family who entered Jiangling City was only twenty people at most. But Shi Chong didn't, no, maybe he didn't dare to open the door and accept the loot in front of the state capital.
Scared out?
No one knows how difficult it will be for Lord Thorn Shi. Did he ever have the idea of escaping from Jiangling or even Jingzhou in his heart?
Most of people's eyes are still on the Zheng family in Dongfang.
The people who live in Dongfang are all powerful people. Zheng Wen naturally had to work hard here, so there was a private residence of the Zheng family in Jiangling Dongfang.
Soon after Wan Yun and the others entered the Zheng Mansion, they continued to post notices to the outside to publicize the Zheng clan's previous battles.
In the south of the river, on the bank of Yunmengze, retreat from the enemy with one shot.
The high slopes of the north of the river, the melee in the rain, the desperate fight!
Compared with the battle of Wu that took place more than ten years ago, this battle is naturally only a small scene.
But Wu relied on the strong to bully the weak, and Zheng Sheng's attack on Huang Juan was undoubtedly a weak battle against the strong.
Defeating the strong with the weak is always more commendable than relying on the strong to bully the weak. What's more, the Zheng family also encountered the strategy of sneak attack in the rain of Huang Juan, and attacked the east and west, and once suffered from the enemy, and the situation almost collapsed!
But Zheng Sheng eventually turned the situation around, and it was he who led the counterattack first, gathered manpower, and finally defeated the opponent.
Of course, the fact that Zheng Sheng was almost coerced by the guards and escaped was hidden in the propaganda.
So far, Zheng Sheng, who is known by word of mouth in Jingzhou, has naturally become a fearless, heroic and combative young hero.
However, Dongfang Zheng Zhai just circulated these news, what is Zheng Sheng doing now? Not the slightest word has been revealed.
That's when people realized that something was wrong.
It's almost mid-July! At this time, isn't it about to be the day when Zheng Sheng and Shi Meng will compete?
But Zheng Sheng was stranded in Jiangling, didn't he go to Anlu?
Combined with Zheng Zhai, he invited all the famous doctors in the city.
Only then did people understand that although the Zheng clan won the previous conflict, they were afraid that they would also pay a heavy price.
Doctor, please? Could it be that Zheng Sheng's own injuries are also serious? If it weren't for that, why didn't Zheng Sheng come forward in person, but let his two subordinates make a big show in Jiangling?
Shi Chong naturally also guessed that Zheng Sheng might be seriously injured. But he didn't dare to touch the Zheng Mansion. Because in addition to the people in Zheng's house, the Zheng family also set up a small camp outside Jiangling, with dozens of people.
Moreover, he did not know whether Zheng Sheng was inside the city or outside the city, and if he used force again, he would inevitably divide his troops.
Shi Chong pondered, if he used the pretext of the Zheng family's mob to cause chaos and led hundreds of state soldiers in Jiangling to move, could he kill Zheng Sheng in one fell swoop?
He, I don't know.
Shi Chong really didn't have confidence in his state soldiers, but it was Zheng Sheng who led a similar number of Zheng guards to defeat his Huang Juan Yicong and give him too much blow. Even he understood that Zheng Sheng's force was now in an extremely weak state.
If you can't kill Zheng Sheng, but will be countered by Zheng Sheng? Or let Zheng Sheng flee back to Jingbei, which will inevitably cause endless troubles......
At that time, if Zheng Sheng really rebelled, would he be able to put down the rebellion with his troops?
It is also unknown.
But he knew that at that time, the charge of persecuting the good people would definitely be placed on his head by his political enemies.
The more I think about it, the more terrible it becomes, and the more I think about it, the more uncomfortable it becomes. Therefore, Shi Chong, who could not allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch, hurriedly left Jiangling City the day after Zheng Sheng arrived in Jiangling.
He ran, he really ran......
Of course, Lord Thorn Shi went to Guiyang County in the name of inspecting the flood in the county, but it has not rained in Guiyang County, which is hundreds of miles away, but the floods in the neighboring Xiangyang, Jiangxia, and Changsha are serious......
Zheng Sheng didn't care about Shi Chong's movements, so what was he doing during this time?
Naturally, ask the doctor to see a doctor to save people.
In the camp outside the city, there are too many wounded to be saved, but with Ren Zhi presiding over the situation and the doctor from Gangneung, there will be basically no problems.
And in the city, there is only one person who needs to be watched by him personally: Liu Wei'er.
