In the early morning of 22 May, around midnight, the sky had just turned white, and outside the south gate of Ningxiang County, a tired team appeared with a tired look on its armor. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the head of the team was a tall man on a horse, who was the "Heavenly Dragon" Bai Wenbo.

It's just that Bai Wenbo at this time has long since lost the majestic appearance of following Wang Ertoe before, but is a little sad and panicked like a lost dog.

Wang Jiayin's command, in fact, is the aggregation of various hills, because Wang Jiayin started earlier, the name is loud, and the thieves who started late are all with the team to run, although a large number of people have gathered in a short period of time, but there are many mountains and factions among the people and horses under his command.

Originally, under the close pursuit of the officials and troops of Yansui Town, these people were still able to work together in order to survive, but after the thieves entered Shanxi in a big way and turned the southwest of Shanxi upside down, there were more people and horses, and the momentum was greater.

These leaders, who were originally able to unite under pressure, suddenly emerged as bandits and rogues when it came time to sit in a row and share the fruits.

First, Gao Yingxiang and Ma Shouying set up their own doors, broke away from the main force of the thieves and went north, and then Wang Jiayin became the king, and all the leaders under him, but the mortals who were powerful, also claimed to be kings and hegemons, and they all had their own factions and mountains.

This seems to be a common wealth, but in fact, it is not, and the leaders under him have selfish intentions, and the situation will immediately change invisibly.

Even Wang Er, the prime minister of Zuo, the "white water thief" who was bent on following Wang Jiayin closely and making the rebellion bigger, realized that he needed to unite a group of people in order to maintain his powerful position.

The "Heavenly Dragon" and "Armor-Breaking Cone", who was originally from the White Water Thieves team, were soon promoted and relied on by him as his right-hand man.

It is precisely because of this that when Wang Guozhong and Zhang Liwei instigated a fire fight in Shennanyu, not many people stood up to question it, such as Zhang Cunmeng, Wei Daheng and others, not only did not stop the infighting, but also added fuel to the fire, because in their eyes, Shennanyu, which is full of factions, will have such a day sooner or later.

Including Bai Wenbo also thought so, but to his great surprise, not long after he walked on the front foot, there was a rush in Shennanyu.

Bai Wenbo with a large amount of grain and grass, family members, all the way slowly, left Shennanyu to the north did not go long, the sky was dark, so in the valley camped, unexpectedly, in the second half of the night, there were rebels fled to attach, said that Yunfeng Temple fire, Shennanyu chaos.

Bai Wenbo, who was a little worried about Wang Er, also had the idea of leading the army back to the division, but he soon denied himself.

It was already difficult to march in the night, and at this time, there was no distinction between friend and foe in Shennanyu, and it would only increase the chaos when you went back, so you could only wait for the dawn to talk about it.

In this way, Bai Wenbo, who was anxious, while restraining the people and horses and restraining the rebels of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion who fled from Shennanyu, did not forget to know the situation he had mastered, and quickly reported to Ningxiang to leave a way back for himself.

After the night of worrying ended, the news that made Bai Wenbo even more frightened came that the official army had invaded Shennanyu, and the king of Hengtian and the prime minister of Zuo were dead, because someone saw the official army holding the heads of Wang Jiayin and Wang Er, and surrendering all over the mountains.

When Bai Wenbo learned the news, he didn't dare to delay any longer, and immediately left behind a large amount of grain and grass for him to lead the army to escort, and only took the family members of the thieves who were placed in Shennanyu, and fled all the way to Ningxiang.

Shennanyu is more than 150 miles away from Ningxiang County, although Bai Wenbo has horses to ride, but almost all the thieves under his command are foot soldiers, and there are a group of family members who cannot be abandoned.

Therefore, even if the Heavenly Dragon Bai Wenbo was in a hurry, the marching speed of the entire team was just not fast.

More than 150 miles of mountain roads, walking for a day and a night, and everyone was tired and sleepy to the extreme, and many old and weak women and children were left behind on the road.

Bai Wenbo was so flustered, not for nothing.

Because after Lu Xiangsheng occupied Shennanyu, he soon learned from Wang Guozhong and Zhang Liwei that Bai Wenbo fled north to Ningxiang with a large amount of grain and grass.

Because he knew that the mountain road was difficult to travel, and Bai Wenbo brought a large number of women and children with heavy grain and grass, so after Lu Xiangsheng straightened out Shennanyu, he quickly sent a team of men and horses as the vanguard to pursue Bai Wenbo's rear team from Shennanyu to the north.

Lu Xiangsheng's idea was that it was best to be able to recruit Bai Wenbo, but if he could not surrender, he would also delay his progress, and it was best to force Bai Wenbo to flee in a hurry, leaving some of the grain and grass behind.

Lu Xiangsheng's approach was very successful, although he only sent a musket team of several hundred people under Li Bei's command, but he was also shocked that Bai Wenbo left his grain and grass and fled north.

In this way, after escaping for a day and a night, finally in the early morning of May 22, when the sky was just dawning, he arrived at the destination of his escape, the county seat of Ningxiang.

Wang Zuohang, who had just taken a nap in the county government in the city, heard that Bai Wenbo was coming, and immediately ordered all the leaders to gather again to discuss matters and come together to meet this "Heavenly Dragon".

This time, Bai Wenbo brought them more accurate news about Shennanyu.

Not only was Shennanyu broken, but also Wang Jiayin, the "King of Hengtian" who crisscrossed Shanxi in northern Shaanxi, and Wang Er, the prime minister and military advisor of Zuo under the command of King Hengtian, died so inexplicably!

After listening to the exact news brought by Bai Wenbo, the thieves in the council hall were speechless.

Wang Jiayin, the first person to rebel in northern Shaanxi and the leader of the thieves, has now died in Shennanyu, and the corpses are separated.

If the momentum is like Wang Jiayin, the king of Hengtian, in the end, it is inevitable that the corpses will be separated, then what will be the end of these little thieves who rebel in the end?

Wang Zuohang, Wu Yangui, Du San, Hui Dengxiang and others looked at each other, their faces were like ashes, and their expressions were extremely depressed.

Just when Wang Zuohang was worried about his net worth, Bai Wenbo, the "Heavenly Dragon", suddenly lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, slammed the ground, and kowtowed to Wang Zuohang, and said:

"King Daliang is above, please accept my worship of Bai Wenbo, the heavenly dragon. From now on, I, Bai Wenbo, would like to serve the king of Daliang as the master, but the king of Daliang will be the first to look forward! ”

Bai Wenbo did this, but he stunned Wang Zuohang and the other thieves in the council hall, but soon, Wu Yangui also turned over and knelt on the ground, bowed slightly, and said the same thing: "Wu Yangui is willing to serve the king of Daliang as the master, but the king of Daliang is the head of the horse!" ”

When Bai Wenbo and Wu Yangui came, everyone else in the conference hall couldn't sit still, and left their seats one after another to bow down, saying "I wish to serve the king of Daliang as the master".

The sudden scene made Wang Zuohang a little dumbfounded.

Of course, Wang Zuojiao thought that one day he would be able to become the co-leader of the thieves and thieves like Wang Jiayin, the "King of Hengtian", and become the leading brother among the thieves from all walks of life, but at this time, watching everyone suddenly bow down, he was a little uncomfortable.

As soon as the news of the death of the "Hengtian King" Wang Jiayin came, these people did not hesitate to change the court, and wanted to serve themselves as the master, so in the future, they would die in the suburbs, and these people might turn their heads and worship others.

Besides, now that there are officials and troops attacking the city, and then the officials and troops are pursuing, and he has agreed with the leaders on the last move to open the city and surrender, how long this leading brother can be is still a question of certainty.

As soon as he thought of this, Wang Zuohang suddenly felt bored and boring.

But the next scene that should be said and the scene work that should be done must be done.

After all, if you become the co-owner of all the thieves, after surrendering, you may be able to sell yourself for a better price.

Thinking of this, Wang Zuo hung down from his seat, helped up the thieves kneeling in front of him one by one, and said:

"Since all the brothers trust my king Zuohang and call me a big brother, then from now on, my king Zuohang should think about the future of all brothers, and the brothers will live and die together, share joys and sorrows, and share prosperity!"
