Chapter 1: The Prisoner in the Threshold
The mountains are like the sea, and the remnant sun is like blood.
A few lonely wisps of wolf smoke, with the bleak autumn wind, drifted in the sky. The ashes of the fields, weeping silently on the desolate and heavy earth. The white bones are exposed, and there is not a single rooster crying for thousands of miles, as if the hellish silence is dead.
The sunset in the sky was as red as if it were burning the sky. The jackdaw is sad, and the lonely village is in ruins. The slanting sun is like drunk, crumbling. All this in front of me is desolate and desolate, and it is gloomy to look at.
There were rows of military horses, only about 100 people, hugging a sill car. A long shadow pulls out in the setting sun, moving slowly in the lonely dusk.
In the prisoner car, a rugged and bold middle-aged man wore shackles and sat cross-legged inside. Although he looked like a prisoner, the soldiers around the carriage could still feel the majesty and arrogance emanating from him.
Dahan looked at the chaotic scene around him, his eyes darkened, and he fell into deep thought. He was so confused that he didn't know how he got here.
Where are you now?
He was originally called Leng Zhuo, who was originally the colonel chief of staff of the Tianluo Special Forces of the Northwest Military Region of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, participated in many wars, and won many second-class merit, third-class merit and even first-class merit medals. At the age of thirty-three, he is already a colonel at the regimental level, and with outstanding meritorious service, it can be said that he has a bright future, and it is not impossible to become a general in the future. Didn't Napoleon say, "A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier." And he undoubtedly wanted to be a general.
It's a pity that the way of heaven is constant, not to survive, not to perish. Just as he was on his way, fate played a big joke on him.
Leng Zhuo has always had a habit of sending a pension to anyone who sacrifices a soldier. His salary will be divided into several monthly payments to the families of martyrs living in poverty, and he will also go to the homes of some martyrs during the New Year's holidays.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival three months ago, Leng Zhuo went to visit the home of a martyr, who was his old comrade-in-arms, the old squad leader who died for him to block a bullet, and the old squad leader left only a pair of orphans and widows after his death. Unexpectedly, the poor orphans and widows were often harassed by some local ruffians and hooligans, and if they called the police, they did not commit much of a crime, and they were detained for ten and a half months at most, and then they intensified their revenge. Leng Zhuo felt extremely guilty when he learned that the widow of his life-saving benefactor had been bullied like this. In this extreme self-blame, Leng Zhuo made a choice that he would not regret until he died - to kill.
If things happen in the current era, look at this era of war and chaos, it's nothing to kill a few people, it's a big deal to run away, no matter how bad it is, you can fall into the grass. Like the people of Liangshan in the Water Margin, they carried the banner of the way of heaven, killed a few corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and were happy to take revenge and revenge, and they were also happy to be at ease.
But that is the modern era, the rule of law society in the 21st century. Here, murder is paid for life, and debts are repaid. No matter what reason you have, Leng Zhuo's actions were intentional homicide, a violation of the laws of the country, and a violation of military discipline. Then the result is self-evident, his military career is over, and his life is about to see the end to the end.
Maybe it's really as said in "Zhou Yi", the avenue is fifty, the sky is forty-nine, and one of them is gone. There is really a glimmer of life in the dark. Just before Leng Zhuo was executed, the wind and clouds between heaven and earth changed suddenly, and the black clouds in the sky overwhelmed the sky, covering the sky and the sun, and lightning and thunder. The wind was raging on the ground, and the vegetation was broken, as if the end of the world was dark. The soldiers who escorted Leng Zhuo next to him only saw the Nine Heavens Thunder, which had the power of destroying the world, descend and slash down within a radius of ten zhang around Leng Zhuo, turning this place into powder, and there was not a single grass left.
When Leng Zhuo woke up again, he found himself locked in a prisoner car, escorted by a team of soldiers, and he didn't know where to go?
"General Dong! It's getting late, can I camp here tonight? A respectful inquiring voice woke Leng Zhuo from his contemplation.
looked up, but it was the captain who was responsible for escorting him. Seeing him straddle his horse and salute him, with a respectful look on his face, Leng Zhuo let go of his instincts and became vigilant.
He said in a deep voice, "A certain person is a guilty person, and the blessings and disasters of his life are still unknown. Thanks to the general's care all the way, I am already ashamed in my heart. And how can you give orders to the general? Everything is up to the general. He cupped his fists and saluted the centurion back.
The young lieutenant saw Leng Zhuo saluting him, and hurriedly said: "The general killed the villain, the villain has long heard the name of the general, and he knows that the general loves soldiers like sons, and he is the first soldier, which can be described as an outstanding achievement." Although the general was not good for the thief, he was already convicted. However, the thieves are powerful and have witchcraft. Mo said that he was a general, even General Lu Zhi couldn't be exterminated and was dismissed, and he wouldn't be too embarrassed to be a general if he wanted to come to the imperial court. ”
Leng Zhuo listened to his words, carefully extracted useful information from them, and then said bitterly: "The eldest husband was born in the world, he can't serve the country loyally, and he died on the battlefield and returned with a horse leather shroud, but instead returned by car, what face do I have to live in the world!" Speaking of this, Leng Zhuo's eyes were full of anger and righteous indignation.
After a pause, he said in a low voice: "If you can escape this catastrophe this time, it is all thanks to the general's merits!" I also hope that the general will give him his name, so that he can repay the general in the future! ”
The lieutenant hurriedly replied, "The last general, Xu Rong, Xuanfu people." ”
The night is as cool as autumn water, and the stars in the sky are dazzling. In other words, the stars at night here are much more beautiful than the neon lights of modern cities! Such a beautiful view is almost impossible to see in modern times. Leng Zhuo looked at the night sky and thought secretly in his heart.
In the conversation with Xu Rong in the evening, he extracted a lot of information from it and made a certain judgment on it.
First of all, I briefly learned about my current situation. The original owner of this body should have been surnamed Dong and was a general. Probably because he lost the battle, the emperor Lao Tzu wanted to find trouble for himself.
Leng Zhuo also has a rough guess about this era. When Xu Rong talked about General Lu Zhi, Leng Zhuo's information appeared in his heart. Lu Zhi, a famous general in the late Han Dynasty. He participated in the suppression of the Yellow Turban Uprising, was a general of Beizhong Lang at the time, confronted Zhang Jiao, and was framed and imprisoned. Zheng Xuan, a great Confucian of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the same brother of Guan Ning and Hua Xin, the white horse general Gongsun Zan and later Liu Bei, the Zhaolie Emperor of the Shu Han Dynasty, were all his disciples.
Xu Rong was Dong Zhuo's general. As far as Leng Zhuo knows, Xu Rong in history is not an unpopular military general as described in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and he was killed by Xiahou in seconds. This is the lord who once defeated Cao Cao and Sun Jian. After Dong Zhuo's death, he fought with Li Yu and Guo Yan, and died in the chaos because he was outnumbered.
These two people, if one appears, it may be a coincidence, but now that two people appear at the same time, there is only one possibility. That is, he traveled to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and now it is the seventh year of Emperor Guanghe of the Han Dynasty, that is, in 184 AD. This year was the largest religious peasant uprising in Chinese history, the Yellow Turban Uprising.
Thinking of this, Leng Zhuo couldn't help but smile bitterly. In my heart, when I was a child, I had a Taoist priest who told my fortune for myself, saying that I had committed seven killings, and it would be difficult for him to die well in the future in order to disturb the thief of the world. Disrupting the world? Fuck the hell. Lao Tzu is also an excellent officer of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, although he has killed countless people and done a lot of wrong things, but he has something to do with disturbing the world! wanted Lao Tzu to be loyal to the country, but in the end, he thundered and crossed over to this broken place. And I don't know who I am now, and my lungs hurt when I think about Lao Tzu.
Wait a minute...... Leng Zhuo suddenly flashed a flash of inspiration in his mind, Lu Zhi ...... Xu Rong...... Late Eastern Han Dynasty...... Yellow Turban Revolt...... Disrupting the world......
He came to a conclusion that almost scared himself to death.
Lu Zhi was falsely imprisoned by the eunuchs because he could not resist Zhang Jiao for a long time. The imperial court sent Dong Zhuo as the general of Dongzhong Lang to replace Lu Zhi to lead the Jizhou war. Dong Zhuo was unable to break the enemy for two months, and he also followed in the footsteps of his predecessor.
In addition, Xu Rong was Dong Zhuo's general. And the original owner of this body was also surnamed Dong. Connect the dots.
So it goes without saying that he is now very likely to be the powerful minister who troubled the world in the late Eastern Han Dynasty - the national thief Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhongying!
