Chapter 38: Bandits Revolt, Pirate Conspiracy
In the territory of the East China Sea and Langya, people with black turbans and black knives snatched from the surrounding villagers.
"Brothers, rob me, and the woman will bring it back to the cottage for the brothers to play with." A bearded man sitting on a horse commanded a gan of men.
I saw robbers burning, killing and looting all kinds of evil, and they used the big knives in their hands to harvest the lives of the innocent people around them, even the children did not let go.
Let the corpses around him be strewn all over the field, the blood is flowing like a river, and the eye-catching faces make people feel cold, those faces have big eyes and open mouths that can put down an egg.
The robbers robbed the gold, silver, and jewelry, as well as some village women, and brought them back to their cottages to enjoy.
I heard an endless wail that darkened the earth and darkened the sky, and rained like amber.
"Let's go, take it all back to the cottage." Under the orders of the leader of the robbers, one by one the robbers took the gold, silver and jewelry and kidnapped the women and walked into the distance.
Pain and sorrow were left behind.
and the poor people who died.
The news of the robbers' ransacking of Langya County and the surrounding villages of Donghai City soon reached the ears of Zhao Yun and the others.
Donghai City, the conference hall, Zhao Yun sat in the first position on the left in a white robe and a blue forehead smear, Liu Feng sat in the first position on the right in a blue robe and a jewel headchain, and Tai Shici still wore a long-horned helmet with a marked horn on the top of his head, and a long-horned armor decorated with goat horns on his left shoulder, sitting next to Zhao Yun majestically.
As for Liu Feng, there is a man in a yellow robe next to him, he is Xun Qi, the word Deru, the original Yingchuan Yingyin people, and later the Dingtao people, who are distant relatives of Wang Zuozhicai Xun Yu.
Chu Luo recruited literati on a large scale after occupying Langya County and Donghai City, but because Chu Luo's behavior was not affirmed by the imperial court, but privately occupied, many literati did not dare to come, for fear of provoking the fire, but Xun Qi was a special existence.
Xun Qi is Xun Yu's distant relative, naturally he used to study in Xun Yu, and later visited a famous teacher, went to Xuchang College to study, and also mixed an official and a half position in the imperial court, but then he was frustrated, and he could only abandon the official and go home.
"Humph! The hateful robbers actually killed people and set fire to the villages near Donghai City and Langya County, did they take us seriously? Zhao Yun was furious, he slammed his fist on the table, and the table made a muffled sound.
"At the beginning, the goal of the lord here was to pacify the robbers and pirates, and to take advantage of the situation, but now it seems that these robbers are all evil, if the lord knows, I am afraid that they will set foot on their lair." Liu Feng said.
"Now, General Chu is not here, what do you think of this matter?" Tai Shi Ci looked around at the three of them and asked.
"What else, directly send troops to level the robber cottage and avenge the dead villagers." Zhao Yun said angrily, the green tendons in his hands were clearly visible, which was very scary.
"General Zhao, this matter is not allowed." Xun Qi Xun Deru stopped.
"Why not?" Zhao Yun's eyes were like wolves, and his voice was like thunder.
"First, as soon as our soldiers came out of the recruitment list, very few came to join the army, plus there were only 12,000 soldiers stationed in Langya County to reconnoiter Beihai Kongrong, 7,000 people in Langya County, 5,000 people in Beihai City, and according to the news, there were 3,000 soldiers and horses in the cottage not far from the East China Sea, and it was difficult for us to draw extra soldiers to go, and now there is a shortage of weapons, many recruits have no weapons available, and Langya County cannot be unguarded, General Tai Shici and General Zhao must have a person to garrison, in case something happens."
"Second, pirates near the coast are beginning to stir up, and all the merchants who have passed by have asked us to help, and many of the merchants who have gone out to trade with other countries have lost their lives because of the pirates. Most of those pirates are from the Wa Kingdom, and as far as I can see, we must have a war with the pirates in the East China Sea, so it is really not appropriate to send troops to attack the pirates now. ”
Xun Qi is worthy of a generation of literati, what he said is reasonable, and only two points make people feel that he is knowledgeable and eloquent, but in the eyes of everyone's admiration, he said the third point.
"Third, as we all know, my lord has not come back from a home, and all decisions must be made by him, and we are now nominally anti-thieves, because the current imperial court has not allowed this to occupy and manage Langya County and Donghai City, and now it seems that we have to see how the imperial court reacts, and what Cao Cao, Kong Rong and others will do."
Xun Qi's words made the three people who were doing it think about it, Zhao Yun stood up and said, "According to Xun Qi's words, we can only sit and wait." ”
"For the time being, it can only be like this, one of the three generals must be stationed in Langya County, after a long time, I am afraid that something will happen, we can only wait and see what happens, after all, the two cities can't have an accident, we need to wait for the lord to come back, and we are making plans." Xun Qi said calmly.
"Zilong, just listen to Xun Qi's words, and when the lord comes back, everything will be on the right track." Liu Feng persuaded Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun nodded, not speaking, but his anger was still not resolved, and Tai Shici sat next to him and didn't say a word from beginning to end.
……
Wa country, by the East China Sea.
"It's time for us to go to the East China Sea of the Han Dynasty again, we miss the women there." A thief-eyed man wearing a long turban said.
"That's right, we should rob those merchants of gold, silver and jewelry, those Han Dynasty people, each has money." Another Wa smirked wickedly.
"The people of the Han Dynasty are weak, and they have long lost the temperament of Liu Bang when they were alive, and the current people of the Han Dynasty are just a plate of scattered sand." A tall Japanese sneered.
"If you want me to say that as long as we have more people, this Han Dynasty will have a place for our pirates." A skinny, one-eyed Chinese man laughed.
"Gather all my Dongying pirates, go to Donghai City to seize the gold and silver treasures there, and if possible, directly disguise themselves as Han Chinese and occupy Donghai City." At this moment, a Japanese man wearing a large armor, a terrifying black mask, and holding a katana command to the group of pirates below.
The Dongying pirates have long been in the waters of the Han Dynasty and many countries, which has caused a great threat to the people in the sea, which is why the imperial court has Qingzhou soldiers, the purpose is to resist the pirates full of evil and prevent them from invading China.
A pirate offensive journey is about to begin, tens of thousands of pirates cross the sea to fight, what should the Han Dynasty do?
Will the Wa State take the opportunity to unite with other countries that have rebelled against the Han Dynasty and do not want to become its vassals? Will the Xiongnu take the opportunity to go south? What about Xianbei?
