Chapter Seventy-Nine: Capture the Army

(Ask for collection and recommendation)

Miao Sa was overly proud, and he had begun to imagine the scene of his meritorious return to the dynasty and his promotion to the rank of knight, so when the captain came in to report that the eldest prince of the Shen family had personally escorted the fifth prince to the door to ask for guilt, he didn't even think about it, and said, "Shen Da is still smart, bring it in." ”

It turns out that Shen Cong and Miao Sa are not smart enough.

Shen Cong and his party of more than ten people, escorted Shen Tan and his party of more than ten people, after entering the gate, Shen Cong bowed his head and was silent, as if he was a little frustrated, Miao Sa still did not see the flaw, but stepped forward to comfort, "Shen Gong Department don't have to worry, you can kill your relatives righteously, I won't embarrass you, Shen Wu ......"

The escort and the escort for more than 20 years suddenly pulled out their knives at the same time, and the ropes tied to their bodies turned out to be all live buckles.

Miao Sa was shocked, but her first reaction was to question Shen Cong: "Shen Da, what do you want to do?" ”

Shen Cong still didn't look up, several knives slashed at the same time, and Miao Sa didn't understand what was going on until his head left his body.

Shen Tan held a knife in one hand and a head in the other, and said loudly to the soldiers in the courtyard: "Chief Miao is in charge of fornicating with thieves, intending to seize the city and sacrifice it to the rebels, my brothers and sisters were ordered to punish them, and they have nothing to do with others. ”

The soldiers looked at each other, but really stood still and did not move.

The Shen family is deeply rooted in Jinyang, and the head of the soldiers and horses is changed every two or three years, and the military is not popular.

Shen Tan went out alone with a knife, and preached again to the soldiers on the street, several officers were indignant at first, and when they saw that the soldiers did not move, they also let go of the hand holding the knife, and stepped forward to bow their hands to Shen Wugongzi to show their peace.

Guo Shifeng walked from the backyard, saw the corpse on the ground from a distance, immediately understood what was going on, turned around and left.

Xu Ji was shaking the wine jug, trying to "trick" a little wine out of it, but only poured out a few drops.

"Brother Guo's face is not good."

Guo Shifeng barely squeezed out a smile, "Shen Wu has the courage, Shen Da has no intention, and he actually ...... Shen Da sent you here before just to confuse me and Manager Miao? No, he can't fool me. That is, Shen Wu was too bold, kidnapped the eldest brother, and infiltrated the governor's mansion-"

After a few words, the smile on Guo Shifeng's face returned to normal, and he bowed to Xu Jishen, "I am willing to lose the bet, please ask my brother to speak on my behalf, I have a good plan to level the world, and I am willing to dedicate it to Shen Wugongzi." ”

"Shen Wu is so drunk, strong and strong, it can be softened, please Brother Guo stay here for a while, let me go out and persuade slowly."

"There's a brother of Lao." Guo Shifeng gave him his hand, and when he saw that Xu Ji was about to push the door, he couldn't help but add, "Take a soldier in troubled times, regardless of the previous suspicions, killing me is not beneficial to merging the state, leaving me to get to the eastern capital quickly, I hope that the younger brother will pay attention to it and explain it clearly to Shen Wugongzi." ”

Guo Shifeng was still scared, Xu Ji nodded with a smile, pushed the door and walked out of the house.

The guards guarding outside had already heard what was happening in front of them, and when they saw the "prisoner" coming out, no one stopped them, and they all stood still, and even turned away, pretending not to see.

Shen Tan led a group of people to hurry over, and when he saw Xu Ji, he immediately handed over the head and knife to the others, quickened his pace and hurried over, bowing his head.

Xu Ji hurriedly helped him up, and said in surprise: "Third brother, why is this?" ”

"Let the fourth brother be frightened, the foolish brother is ashamed, fortunately the second brother has a clever plan, and he will see him again."

"The third brother is willing to take risks for his foolish brother, taking his body as a hostage, cutting off the official with a knife, and the brotherhood is deep, nothing more than this, how can he be 'ashamed'?"

The two laughed, the strong men who came with them laughed, and the soldiers around them also nodded slightly, feeling that this Shen Wugongzi was indeed enough to be friendly.

Shen Tan pulled Xu Ji and introduced him to his companions on the spot, everyone admired them for a long time, most of these people were soldiers and officials of Jinyang City, and there were several local heroes who volunteered to follow Shen Wu, things went surprisingly well, and they were also very happy.

Shen Tan whispered: "That envoy Guo ......"

"Third brother, don't worry, I can let him work for the Shen family, but don't worry, I'll talk about it after dawn, there are a lot of things to do at the moment."

"The fourth brother is right." Shen Tan had already made arrangements, he came to the backyard to visit Xu Ji, and secondly, to find the chief manager's seal, there was no seal in the back hall, only Tan's senseless long sword, Xu Ji held it in his hand.

The crowd went straight to the inner courtyard.

Miao Sa took his relatives to take office, and his wife and two concubines were already paralyzed with fright, allowing outsiders to enter the house and search, sitting on the ground and not daring to stop him a little.

When the official seal was found, Shen Tan was overjoyed and took people to the front yard, and met Liu Youzhong on the way.

Liu Youzhong also brought a group of people, assigned arrangements, and took over the entire governor's mansion, as well as the city gates, and the entire Jinyang City belonged to the Shen family.

Xu Ji followed Shen Tan and occasionally reminded him a few words, but Shen Tan obeyed his words and treated him differently from ordinary people.

The day was about to dawn, the matter was over, and everyone went into the hall to rest.

Shen Cong had been sitting in the hall, and when he saw his younger brother and Xu Ji, his face became even more ugly, "Old Five, are you satisfied this time?" ”

Shen Tan stepped forward and knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "The foolish brother is reckless, and he has offended a lot, please punish my brother." ”

The hall and the hall were full of Shen Tan's people, and Shen Cong could only snort coldly and said, "How dare I punish it?" I just beg my fifth brother to let me live and let me go back to my father. ”

Shen Tan got up, "We are brothers, how can we say 'life'?" If the eldest brother wants to stay, he will stay, and if he wants to leave, he will leave, and no one dares to stop him. ”

Shen Cong stood up, glanced left and right, strode towards the door, and when he passed Xu Ji, he stopped, stared at him, and said loudly to everyone: "You are rebelling, the sin of raiding the house and destroying the door, look at how you face your father, brother and wife after you go home." ”

Others saw him as Shen Tan's brother, and they didn't squeak, but Liu Youzhong smiled and said: "The king has no way, and the ministers advise him, and the loyal ministers persuade him, but if the advice and persuasion fail, the Ming ministers should stop him with force." We are waiting to contribute, can the Ministry of Shen Gong advise and persuade him? ”

Shen Cong was timid, and when he was in the Eastern Capital, he didn't dare to say a word to the Emperor of All Things, not even a minister, just a silent nobleman, and at this time, he was said to be in the sore spot, his face turned red, and he shook his hand and left.

Liu Youzhong said to Shen Tan: "Brother Ling went to see Lord Mushou, the third brother should not be careless, he should take the lead, and this place can be handed over to Wang Senjun and me." ”

Wang Senjun is not a follower of Shen Tan, not long after he was called, he was startled when he heard that he was mentioned, but he didn't dare to excuse himself, and the people around him were all carrying knives.

Shen Tan nodded, left half of his companions to help Liu Youzhong, and the other half of them walked with him, and then mobilized 300 soldiers from the governor's mansion to go out of the city with him to see his father.

Guo Shifeng guessed one thing correctly before, the shepherd guard Shen Zhi acquiesced to his son's nonsense, but he went out of the city in advance to avoid being affected.

When Shen Tan was the only one left by his side, Liu Youzhong came over and whispered, "I have a reluctant request, can the third brother agree?" ”

"Big brother is still polite to me, what do you want, just ask, inside and outside Jinyang City, there is nothing you can't get."

Liu Youzhong laughed twice, "I don't want anything else, Mrs. Governor is quite beautiful, I have heard about it in the Eastern Capital, I don't know if you can reward me?" ”

When Xu Ji heard this, he immediately felt a little disgusted with Liu Youzhong, but Shen Tan laughed and said: "The treasure knife is not old, and the eldest brother is also the envy of the younger brother." However, I saw it in the inner courtyard just now, the beauty of the chief manager's wife is not worthy of the name, at most it can be regarded as a middle-aged person, but although Miao Sa's two concubines are not called the national beauty and fragrance, they have a bit of charm. The eldest brother might as well go and check it out to see what I think, if it is the wife of the sole manager, take it away, and there is no need to ask. ”

Liu Youzhong smiled on his face, "It's enough to have a third brother." Fourth brother, don't laugh at me, I don't have any other preferences, I just can't stop a color word, and I once learned the thaumaturgy of fitness in the mountains, and I have to have a woman to help. ”

Xu Ji arched his hand and said: "How dare you laugh, no wonder the eldest brother is not old at all, but I, like the third brother, also think that those two concubines are more beautiful." ”

Liu You finally retired with a smile, asked Wang to join the army to discuss affairs, and then went to the inner courtyard for a beauty pageant when he was free.

"Bring envoy Guo?" Shen Tan cares about Guo Shifeng very much.

Xu Ji nodded.

The two went to the backyard together, and on the way Shen Tan said: "Fourth brother, don't think I am unreasonable, the eldest brother's request is indeed a bit excessive, but he is the eldest brother after all, and now it is the time to employ people, the eldest brother knows a lot of people, all over the world, once something happens, it will be of great use, and it is not too much to reward him with many women." Only the lady in charge, presumably the daughter of the Dongdu family, should not be insulted by this, I hope the eldest brother can understand my intentions, and it is enough to choose two concubines. ”

"Big brother must understand." Xu Ji believed that Liu Youzhong was not that kind of foolish person and could hear Shen Tan's meaning.

The soldiers in the backyard have been transferred, Guo Shifeng guarded the empty room alone, peeking out through the crack of the door for a long time, and as soon as he saw Xu Ji and Shen Tan, he immediately retreated to his seat.

Xu Ji entered the room, did not speak, and sighed first.

Guo Shifeng's heart jumped violently, and he said with a dry smile: "It's okay, I'm also through strong winds and waves......

"The Shen family wants to use Brother Guo's envoy status, can it?"

Guo Shifeng took the case, "I am even willing to belong to the Shen family, let alone the identity of an envoy?" ”

Xu Ji arched his hand and smiled: "It's done, please come with me." ”

Outside the house, Shen Tan pondered, "Ling Qincha is frightened, Shen is a capital crime." ”

"In order to save the sworn brothers, Shen Wugongzi drew his sword and was angry, the love was so deep, he didn't let the mountains, Guo hated not knowing the son early, and he worshipped today, and he had no regrets."

Shen Tan held Xu Ji in one hand and Guo Shifeng in the other, and personally took him outside the house, talking and laughing along the way, quite hating each other.

The people outside were ready, hundreds of people rode out of the city, and when they arrived at the city gate, Shen Cong was still stopped there and could not advance, so he had to ask his younger brother for help and go out of the city to meet his father together.

When they arrived at the barracks, the Shen brothers went to see their father first, while Xu Ji and Guo Shifeng stayed in a nearby tent and waited.

Someone in the tent was drinking, and he was not surprised to see the two of them come in, so he asked directly, "Have you brought back my long sword?" ”

Xu Ji offered it with both hands, Tan Wusensei took it in his hand, stroked and sighed, "Without it, it's like missing a soul." ”

Guo Shifeng said: "This is Mr. Tan who gave Shen Wugongzi a strange plan, right?" ”

Xu Ji said: "This is my second brother Tan Wuyi, and this is my friend Guo Shifeng who met in the Eastern Capital." ”

The two saluted each other, and Tan said meaninglessly: "It's not a strange plan, it's an old-fashioned way in the art of war to attack the enemy, but it's useful, if Manager Miao has a heart, he should be on guard." ”

Guo Shifeng laughed, the person who was defenseless was actually him.

The three of them sat down to drink, and before the third round, Shen Tan personally came to invite Guo Shifeng and said to Xu Ji: "Please wait a while, fourth brother, father will see you later." ”

Guo Shifeng was an envoy of the imperial court, of course Shen Zhi wanted to meet first, but Xu Ji didn't care and continued to drink with Tan senselessly.

"Shen Jizhou won't see the fourth brother." Tan Wuxian suddenly burst out of a sentence.

"Why?"

"The fourth brother once participated in the assassination, and others don't take it seriously, like the third brother, he thought it was a feat, but Shen Bingzhou was not, he hated this kind of thing."

Xu Ji's wine was all gone.
