Chapter 025: Zhang Rang's abacus
"What, you're out of ideas?" When Zhang Tong said this, he looked at Yuan Lang, who had been brought to his side. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yuan Lang chuckled in his heart, he finally understood what Zhang Tong meant, or Zhang Rang's real purpose, he completely understood that Zhang Rang was the mastermind behind this.
Although the surrender letter prepared by the imperial court was issued to Zhang Liang, the "general of the people", but now the strongest strength of the old Yellow Turban Army can only be the Montenegrin Army led by Zhang Yan.
The reason why Zhang Rang took great pains to do this was only because Yuan Lang once said to him that the prince and general Xiangning had such a thing, it seems that he was saying it purely for perfunctory purposes at that time, but the listener had the intention.
Zhang Rang's abacus played very well and was also very accurate. If he wants to control Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army and use it as his private army in the future, then he must find someone who can control the Black Mountain Army, and this person must also be under his own control.
So whether this person exists or not, at least Yuan Lang can be sure now, the person Zhang Rang is looking for is him Yuan Lang.
Although he can't directly control the Montenegrin Army, he can use Zhang Ning's prestige in the Montenegrin Army, as long as he can get Zhang Ning, it will be equivalent to indirectly controlling the Montenegrin Army, so naturally, Zhang Rang also has the confidence to control him Yuan Lang.
But Zhang Rang would never have thought that everything about his old eunuch Yuan Lang was hypocritical, what kind of court secret agent, the concubine of the heavenly maiden, these are all nonsense that he Yuan Lang had, not to mention the lot of promises made with this old man at the wine table, it is estimated that now let him Yuan Lang say that he doesn't know what specific things he promised to Zhang Rang.
Zhang Rang is gambling, he is gambling by using the resources of the imperial court, anyway, whether he signs or not, whoever signs is the same, so why doesn't Zhang Rang find someone who is beneficial to him to sign, and now he still has a trump card in his hand that can be negotiated, that is, Zhang Ning, who was captured.
No wonder Zhang Rang didn't dare to step forward, because he knew that the negotiations would fail to a certain extent, and if Zhang Yan was allowed to sign indiscriminately, the matter would definitely be done, but he stirred things up, who knows if the Montenegrin Army would buy it.
Yuan Lang finally knew that Zhang Rang went to Montenegro to find not Zhang Yan, but Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang's whereabouts can be described as secret, but Zhang Rang actually knew the internal secrets for a long time, and the imperial court had prepared a letter of surrender early in the morning, so in other words, the person who hid in Montenegro to report to the imperial court, or the real secret agent of the imperial court, must be a general close to the power center of the Montenegrin army, otherwise he would not know such a confidential news that Zhang Liang was about to join Zhang Ning to Montenegro.
Analyzing this, Yuan Lang was already scared into a cold sweat, if there was such a powerful spy hiding around him, the Montenegrin Army would definitely be in danger in the future, walking on thin ice.
Yuan Lang's thoughts continued, but Zhang Tong had already quickened the pace of the peace talks, and he pointed at Yuan Lang according to the routine instigated by Zhang Rang in advance: "Since everyone doesn't know yet, then the Taishou will be made public to everyone...... You are very happy, your heavenly daughter already has a favorite husband, far away in the sky, close at hand, it is this Yuan Gongzi, they are already in the barracks......"
Yuan Lang suddenly woke up, and immediately stopped and said: "Zhang Taishou, please be cautious, we will naturally explain the matter between me and the Heavenly Maiden, and we will naturally explain it to the brothers of the Black Mountain Army, so we won't bother the adults to worry!" ”
Yuan Lang knew that if he didn't stop it, Zhang Tong's next revelation must be that he Yuan Lang and the Heavenly Maiden shared a bed, the part of the cloud and rain style, in front of so many people, the name of the Heavenly Maiden is important, but his own life is also very precious, you see that Zhang Yan is almost bursting out of the eyeballs, I'm afraid his knives have been unsheathed.
Obviously, Zhang Tong's revelations caused a lot of commotion, and most of the officials and troops were lamenting, while on the side of the Montenegrin army, there were doubts one after another, and a very small number of people also issued concluding speeches such as "so it is".
"Hey, now isn't the time to be stubborn, look at the mountain!"
Yuan Lang just wanted to find something to comfort Zhang Ning and let her have the right to let him sign this peace agreement on his behalf, but when he couldn't find a reason to persuade him, he happened to see a banner appearing above the West, as well as a group of officers and soldiers who were pressed by the black.
These officers and soldiers were originally very hidden, but the afterglow of the sunset happened to fall on this place, and it is estimated that they have been lurking for a long time, and they are also a little impatient, and soldiers have come out of the bunker one after another, so this is the first time that Yuan Lang saw it.
Zhang Ning took advantage of the situation and saw this scene, she was deeply aware of the sense of crisis on the line of life and death, she knew that the Montenegrin Army must have dispatched most of the main forces in order to save her, but this will be several times the number of officers and soldiers, if you don't make a decision early, I am afraid that there is a danger of being surrounded and annihilated.
The Montenegrin army was discussing the fact that Yuan Lang was not qualified to sign, where did they have the leisure to check the surrounding environment, and the atmosphere of the peace talks was developing for the better, who would have thought about the danger.
"This person can't represent the Montenegrin Army, he can't sign!"
"Yes, if you want to sign, he is also handsome, he is the oldest!"
……
The opposition of the people in Montenegro is far greater than the support, just as everyone is asking loudly and opposing is endless, Zhang Ning, who is a goddess, finally spoke.
"Everyone, please listen to me!"
The biggest reason why Zhang Ning made such a decision was because of the situation, regardless of his life and death, if these brothers of the Montenegrin Army were buried here, this really made her unbearable, so he made up his mind, no matter what others said, she could only say three words, only to hear Zhang Ning say loudly, "Let him sign!" ”
With Zhang Ning's finger, everyone was silent, some were stunned, some were surprised, some were unbelievable, and some were envious, but most of them were because a flower was inserted in cow dung, this kind of thing that they had just heard of and had never seen, and they finally saw it today, and they witnessed this history.
Everyone has their own goddess in their hearts, this goddess can only be unique to him in their hearts, even if the goddess finds their most suitable other half, they will say that it is unhappy and inappropriate, this is the current mentality of these people on the scene.
Yuan Lang bumped into **** luck, and was recognized by someone on the spot for no reason, and gave a lifelong event in a daze.
Perhaps this joy was what Yuan Lang had been looking forward to early, but it wasn't until Yuan Lang signed his name on the imperial court's surrender letter (peace talks) on behalf of the old Yellow Turban Army (Montenegrin Army), that he still felt that all this was like a dream.
As night fell, according to the additional terms of the peace talks, the officers and the Montenegrin army exchanged prisoners and brought back the bodies of the sacrificed soldiers who remained in the spheres of influence of each side.
This letter of surrender of the Montenegrin Army will soon spread throughout the country, and the former imperial court resistance forces have moved towards the so-called "legalization" starting today, which is the promise given to them by the imperial court that they will never reduce their military power.
That is to say, the Montenegrin Army has been recognized as a legitimate armed force recognized by the imperial court from today onwards, and the leader of this army is no longer the original black marshal Zhang Yan, or the general of the imperial court, Yuan Lang.
At least, that's what the official documents say.
However, this nominal leader had a miserable life, not to mention the collective burial ceremony of sacrificing Montenegrin soldiers, he was not invited to participate, and no one came to him or said a word to him in the next few days, but every good meal of wine and food was served, no different from house arrest.
The door squeaked open, because it was "house arrest", so Yuan Lang's accommodation was semi-free, as long as he didn't leave the courtyard, the rest was with him.
"What delicious food did you bring to Lao Tzu today?" Yuan Lang knew that there was only a pawn who brought himself three meals a day.
"Haha, today is the roast chicken and the old man secretly hide the wine, I don't know if Brother Yuan can appreciate his face?"
Yuan Lang looked straight from the couch, and saw that what came today was not the kid who usually delivered food to him, but Zhang Baiqi, who was still dressed in a white robe, holding a plate of roast chicken in his hand and a jar of wine in his right hand.
