Chapter 270: Everything is over
Zeng Lang is only 50 years old, but he has been in the Central Plains for 30 years. In his early years, he was engaged in leather trading, and married his relatives Zengtou City, and his roots deepened, and he slowly started a horse trading business. Horses are military resources, and they cannot be touched by those who have no roots?
And because he trafficked horses by sea, most of the healthy horses came from the Bohai Department or the Jurchen tribe, and the horses were of good quality, which was better than the land routes in Hebei. Therefore, it is deeply valued by the Lingzhou government.
By the time the sons grew up, Zeng Lane was already a powerful man in the Lingzhou realm. It is true that he is a Jurchen, but he is not a reckless barbarian who has no knowledge, otherwise he would not have come to this point. Although the Northern Song Dynasty was beaten on the battlefield, the Jurchens were not Khitans, and the Great Song Dynasty was not the end of the Qing Dynasty. The Jurchens are just savages in the mountains, and they don't have the treatment of super citizens when they settle down in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty. And Zeng Lane can rely on the identity of an outsider, step by step to dominate the village, and take charge of Zengtou City, is he really a reckless man? The truth of remembering the bittersweet memories has been very clear.
One of the five tigers of the Zeng family once went to the north to sell horses and witnessed the miserable life of the Jurchen tribesmen. Compared with the Jurchens in the North, their days in the Central Plains are simply better.
Yes, whether it is Zeng Lane or the Five Tigers of the Zeng family, no one wants to return to live in the Northland. This Great Song Dynasty, this Lingzhou, and this Zengtou City are their homes. Even if after Yan Jurchen raised an army, it went smoothly, and now it is only a year or two, and it has almost taken away the entire Tokyo Road of Daliao. However, the Khitan people have been established for 200 years, have a big family, a big business, and a strong foundation, so they are Zeng Lang, who has the deepest feelings for the Jurchens, and they dare not expect the Jurchens to completely destroy the entire Great Liao. It is now the end of the fifth year of Zhenghe. The original party members also entered the Guanzhong for a time, and even Yanzhou was lit with beacon fires. But what about now?
Yu Zeng made his heart, the Jurchens and the Liao State, the consequences were only the second Western Xia. As for the Jurchens who overturned the Great Liao, drank the Yellow River again, and entered the Central Plains, it was really a fantasy, and they didn't dare to think about it. [Wanyan Aguta seems to be in awe of Zhao Song and regards it as a brilliant power......]
Therefore, Zeng Lang never thought of abandoning everything in the Central Plains and returning to the Jurchen society. What he values most is Zengtou City, which is their foundation, the foundation of the Zeng family, and the capital for his children and grandchildren to live a good life for generations.
Zeng Rong's biggest regret now is that he didn't let his son read and write, not that the five tigers of the Zeng family are all blind, but now he himself can write a good hand. Perhaps literacy does not mean that a real "reader" is a real reader, and only a person who has a reputation for reading is a real reader. After all these years in the Central Plains, what does he not understand? If you want to become a real Lingzhou wealthy family and a big family, you must not only look at the next generation, but also see whether they can contribute to the government.
Zhang Zhizhou of Lingzhou said that the stakes are very important for this fight, and Zengtou City only needs to make meritorious contributions, and Hugh said that it is Bao Yilang, and it is not a problem to train Wulang and Xiuwulang who are more watery.
Man dies for money, and birds die for food. Zhang Zhizhou's promise only heard that the people of Zengtou City were as hot as fire. So that Zeng Lang's father and son saw the hope that the family would now go to the next level, which would save them one or two generations of decades of effort; called Shi Wengong and Su Fei saw the opportunity to get ahead and enter the official career.
They are all fighting for a chance to go to the side court as Lang officials to fight and serve.
Then some people in later generations said that it was impossible for Liangshan to not recruit in the end. Because the backbone of Liangshanbo is the general of the official army, and the reason why they surrendered to Liangshanbo is that Song Jiang has long talked about being recruited in the future and then serving the imperial court.
This whole Water Margin is actually that Hei Saburo, who is enthusiastic about fame and fortune, had to fall into the grass after violating the royal law, and then took the name of the leader of the cottage to re-brush out a ticket for himself to bleached twice. This is actually the old way of ten knots, but Hei Saburo is bigger in Shuibo. And those officers and generals were themselves people of officialdom, but they all lost the battle and were captured. Surrender now to earn your life and wait until later. And the power of this faction is getting bigger and bigger, and with Hei Saburo's henchmen, it has actually dominated the entire Liangshanbo, so is there any reason not to recruit An?
But this bloody road was really opened, and the fight really came, and the cadres in Zengtou City found that everything was far from being as beautiful as they imagined.
……
Liang Shanbo disregarded the rules of the green forest, and only drove the soldiers and horses to fight, and the people of their generation wore armor, how could they be comparable to Zengtou City? In the first battle, hundreds of henchmen Zhuang Ding were destroyed, only Shi Wengong's three horses were returned, and Zeng Tou City was already broken. This party just took a breath, and the follow-up main force seemed to be about to annihilate everyone again.
Not to mention the Lingzhou soldiers, the Zeng brothers' hatred for Wei Dingguo is no less than that for Liang Shanbo, the shit-like firefighters who are in their mother's hands are so aggrieved tonight, it's all to blame for Wei Dingguo's incompetence.
But Lingzhou Bing didn't mention it, only said that if Zhuang Ding of Zengtou City here was also lost in the morning, then Zengtou City would really be injured. Especially when they lost their soldiers and lost their generals, they couldn't even take a picture of the face of the thief in Liangshanbo, and they were bullying people!
Zeng Suo is the one who is about to be suffocated.
The previous deep sense of grievance is certainly deep, but if he wants to be suffocated, he has not been suffocated, this kind of anger is full of anger, but it deviates from the feeling of being kicked in the door, making him feel bad about the whole person.
Until he saw three or two Liangshan army armor soldiers chasing and slashing seven or eight Zengtou City Zhuangding, the latter just blindly fled, and was cut down three or four without any power to fight back, and the rest of the little Lori who was surrounded by a group of strange Shu millet obediently dropped her weapons and squatted on the ground with her head in her arms, which really made Zeng Suo unable to stand this humiliation.
It doesn't matter if it's an instantaneous brain heat, whether it's a complete suffocation explosion, or whether it's reading Zhuang Ding, it jumps out anyway.
These Zengtou City Zhuangding who were cut down and captured are not indifferent to others, they are all the wealth of his family, and after the family is separated in Japan, it may still be the wealth of Zeng Suo.
Shi Wengong, who didn't have time to wear the whole frame, carried a steel gun in his hand, rode his horse straight forward, and occasionally turned around, only to suddenly find that Zeng Laosan was gone?
"What? The third brother is gone? Zeng Tu was shocked.
Zeng Mi and Zeng Kui also pulled the war horses, and everyone looked back, but the camp was full of soldiers and flames, where could they still be found?
But it was at this time that a wave of defeated soldiers came directly, and only Shi Wengong and them could not stand.
Zeng Kui watched his two brothers and teachers get farther and farther away from him, but he couldn't close a step closer to each other.
When he finally broke out of the chaos, he was bumping into a group of Liangshan armor soldiers.
The Liangshan army surged from all sides, and Zeng Kui could not resist even if he was an overlord alive. The few Zengtou City Zhuangke behind him are like a that is about to collapse, and it may be washed away by the flood-like Liangshan Army in the next moment.
"Zha ......" shouted with a thunderbolt, and Zeng Kui's spear swept to stop a flying arrow again, "Sons, kill with me!" ”
He didn't want to stay for a moment, and if he stayed longer, he would lose a trace of life.
But at this moment, the fire-eyed man rushed straight forward, holding an iron chain, and smashed it down on Zeng Kui's head. "Dangchang!" A loud sound of gold and iron.
Looking at Zeng Kui, whose upper body was not moving, a trace of horror flashed in Deng Fei's eyes, he didn't want to have such a person in Lingzhou, how could he keep him?
Deng Fei, who was experienced in the green forest, turned his horse and opened the distance.
"You man, now that you have been surrounded by my large army, why don't you give up your weapons and surrender, it is better than burying your net worth and your life in vain!" It is difficult to resist hard fighting, and Deng Fei's approach is to shake the opponent's mind.
"Thieves don't talk nonsense, let's see the real chapter!" Zeng Kui didn't have the slightest intention of surrendering, his legs slightly clamped the horse's belly, and when he sat down, the green horse was already moving forward with the same mind, "Eat me again!" ”
Deng Fei saw that his well-intentioned advice was ignored by his opponent, and he was also very angry, and the spear stabbed by Zeng Kui with the iron chain in his hand was a vertical split.
"I don't know how to do it, wait for me to release you under the head of the Lin Sect, see how hard you are still mouthed?" And Deng Fei's words only met Zeng Kui's disdainful snort. Although there were only two fights, he could feel Deng Fei's lack of confidence. "You want to take me too?" The steel gun telescopic room is more skilled, but it has already made up its mind, first fight and retreat from the thief general, and then pay attention to the others.
"Haha, it's hard for Brother Deng to capture you alone, but what about Song Wan?" A loud voice came, and the general was already close to the battle group like a black shadow, and a spear stabbed down on Zeng Kui's heart.
"When the ...... is long" There was a burst of gold and iron, and Zeng Kui's side gun was swept horizontally between the lightning and flint, sealing the sudden spear.
"Despicable!" A layer of sweat oozed from Zeng Kui's vest. I really didn't expect Liang Shanbo to fight more and less at such a time. It's a pity that Song Wan's skills are low, Deng Fei's martial arts are mediocre, and the two of them teamed up to say that they had captured Zeng Kui, but it was difficult to beat him.
The three horses intersected, and they fought about ten times, regardless of victory or defeat. Until the leopard turned its head sideways, Zeng Kui saw that Liang Shanbo had another leader coming, and he was very panicked, and his marksmanship did not follow the ancient grid, and he was beaten off the horse by Deng Fei with an iron rope. The three armies shouted in unison and caught forward.
Later, Lin Chong said again: "How is it in the camp, Song Wan only chased the enemy forward with me, and Deng Fei divided his troops to strangle the remnants of the four defeated generals." ”
One night, at dawn, Lin Chong, Deng Fei, and Song Wan sat separately in the military tent, and their guards had already separated Zeng Suo and Zeng Kui's two brothers. The two brothers were silent, and Lin Chong had no intention of recruiting them, so he asked the guards to be sent to the prison so that they could be sent to Lu Qian to see.
In this way, the Lingzhou army has collapsed, and Wei Dingguo is still undecided after fleeing to Gaotang Prefecture. After Su Ding and Zeng Sheng, who stayed there, heard that Zeng Suo and Zeng Kui were either damaged or captured by Liang Shanbo, they immediately made a small calculation in their hearts. At least they don't dare to blatantly make enemies with Liang Shanbo anymore.
The lives of Zeng Suo and Zeng Kui are inseparable from them, and the friendship between the five tigers of the Zeng family is not false.
The news spread, not to mention how frightened Zeng Lane of Zengtou City was, and bluntly said that stealing chickens could not make rice, but said that Yang Zhi, the blue-faced beast looking across the river, received the battle report from the leopard's head, and he felt that it was a disappointment.
He also expects that the leopard head will fight with the Lingzhou soldiers and horses, and then he will be a good soldier and earn a lot of success.
Now, it's all about rest.
