While Liu Mang was enjoying his birthday surprise in Pingyang, Wang Meng, who was in the Baibo Army, was waiting for Deng Qiang's final reply.

The White Polish army occupied the Zhongtiao Mountains and the northern banks of the Yellow River.

Han Xian's department was entrenched in Hebei County, southeast of Hexi, and Deng Qiang led his department to be stationed in Ruicheng, which was adjacent to Hebei County. Here, it was the Rui Kingdom during the Yin Shang period.

Wang Meng sat in front of several cases, holding a wine bowl, and didn't take a sip for a long time. In several cases, Deng Qiang specially sent Wang Meng's favorite delicious crab claws, but they didn't move.

The delicacy was in front, but Wang Meng didn't have the heart to eat it.

shouldered the mission of persuading Deng Qiang, but Deng Qiang was reluctant to agree.

Although the young Wang Meng was calm and serious, he couldn't sit still.

Deng Qiang, whose ancestral home is Anding County, Liangzhou Thorn History Department, has been poor for generations. At the end of the Han Dynasty, the dynasty collapsed, and the world was in chaos. Liangzhou, which is already more desolate than the mainland, is even more famine. In addition, the Xiongnu were repeatedly harassed, and the people were not able to make a living. People fled their homes and fled to the Central Plains.

Deng Qiang, who had left his hometown, was seriously ill due to hunger when he fled to the vicinity of Huashan, and almost died in Huangquan.

Fortunately, I had to meet Wang Meng, who was studying in seclusion in Huashan.

Wang Meng was familiar with medicine, saved Deng Qiang's life, and gave some dry food, so the two got acquainted.

When Deng Qiang fled to Hedong, he was just in time for Guo Taibu, the remnant of the Yellow Turban Army, to revolt in the Baibo Valley and establish the Baibo Army.

Most of the people in the Baibo army were poor people like Deng Qiang. Fate made Deng Qiang join the White Bo Army without hesitation.

Dong Zhuo rebelled and sent his son-in-law Niu Fu and captain Li Dao to conquer the Baibo Army many times. The White Bo Army had just been formed, and its morale was high, defeating Dong Zhuo's team several times. Deng Qiang made many miraculous achievements, and soon became an important general second only to the three major leaders from an ordinary member.

Now, Deng Qiang is the leader of Han Xian's subordinates, the most capable and the most in charge.

……

Wang Meng defected to Liu Mang, because he had a life-saving grace for Deng Qiang, so he promised Liu Mang to persuade Deng Qiang to lead the crowd to vote.

However. Things didn't go well.

Deng Qiang's status in the Baibo Army has been continuously improved, and his mentality has slowly changed.

Now Deng Qiang is no longer a homeless person who does not have enough food and clothing, but a senior general who controls thousands of soldiers and horses.

As the remnants of the yellow scarves were exterminated. Yang Feng Han Xian knew that being a bandit and bandit had no future. While there are still 100,000 horses in his hands, he uses this as a bargaining chip to submit to the imperial court. It is a wise choice to clear your sins and seek to be promoted to a knighthood.

For nearly a year, Yang Bong Han Siam has been looking for a way out.

The princes, including Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shu, expressed their willingness to accept Bai Bojun, but due to the disagreement of Yang Feng and other major leaders, the matter of recruiting an was never successful.

Now, Liu Mang has risen in Bingzhou, and has pointed to Hedong and Yanchi. Yang Feng and others felt more and more pressed for time, and began to accelerate their search for a way to be recruited.

Deng Qiang also has his own plans. With heavy troops in hand, Deng Qiang also wanted to seek a good way out for himself.

Wang Meng contacted Deng Qiang, and Deng Qiang couldn't help but be happy. He knew that Wang Meng had great talents, so he just asked him to help him come up with ideas.

However, Wang Meng proposed to annex Liu Mang, but Deng Qiang was not satisfied. He felt that Liu Mang was not only weak, but also lacked a good background to be brought to the stage.

Deng Qiang is not optimistic about Liu Mang. It has been dragging on, observing and comparing Liu Mang and other princes......

……

Deng Qiang is not in a hurry, Wang Meng is in a hurry!

If Deng Qiang could not be convinced, it would be impossible to disintegrate the White Polish Army from within.

If the White Polish Army remains intact. Even if Liu Mang mobilized all the troops of Bingzhou, he might not be sure to defeat and drive away the Baibo army. However, the 16-character policy of "showing weakness with weakness, avoiding rigidity with skill, sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger, and taking advantage of the chaos" planned by Wang Meng for Liu Mang could not be realized.

Wang Meng didn't want his debut to end like this.

"We must do our best!"

"Deng Qiang must be convinced!"

Wang Meng secretly encouraged himself. Finally picked up the wine and drank it all!

Outside, there was a loud bell-like voice, and Wang Meng hurriedly got up and opened the door.

Outside the door, the burly man with a loud voice is Deng Qiang.

Deng Qiang, with a big face in the national character, is grim and cold, with thinning hair and a thick beard.

The tough horsewhip that never left his hand, as thick as an egg and made of cowhide, was bent into a circle by Deng Qiang's hands.

Standing opposite Deng Qiang was a low-ranking officer with a very obscene smile, carrying a chicken in his hand.

Beside the man, an honest old man stood cowardly, not daring to speak out or leaving.

"The rules of the army, don't you understand?" Deng Qiang's voice was frighteningly cold.

The officer shuddered, forced a smile, and said, "I'll give him the money to buy chickens." ”

"Let me ask you, the rules in the army, do you understand?" Deng Qiang emphasized, his voice was like ice.

The officer's legs trembled. "Qu, Qu Shuai, I understand, I understand......"

"Understood?!" Deng Qiang let go of one hand, and the horsewhip bounced up with a "boom", making a terrible "buzzing" sound.

The officer fell to his knees with a "poof". "Qu, Qu Shuai, the little one won't dare to ...... next time"

"Mil-spec!" Deng Qiang slowly spit out two words.

The relatives around him read aloud: "Those who forcibly take the people's property will be refunded twice as much, and they will be whipped ten!" ”

"Oops! Qu Shuai spares his life, spares his life! The officer shouted in horror. I'll pay it back, double the money! The officer struggled to kneel in front of the old man, took out a large handful of money, did not dare to count it, and stuffed the chicken in his hand into the old man's hand.

The old man took the chicken, but he didn't dare to collect the money.

"Take it." Deng Qiang spoke to the old man, his tone was much softer, but there was still an air of obedience.

The old man was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he took the money tremblingly, and the money scattered all over the place.

The officer took out a handful of money from his bosom and forced it into the old man's arms. turned around and knelt down to Deng Qiang, kowtowing more than once. "Qu Shuai, I have a small long memory, I don't dare anymore."

"Strip off your clothes."

"Huh?!" The officer did not expect that he would admit his mistake so much, and he could not escape the whipping, and shouted loudly. "Qu Shuai! Qu Shuai! Spare me! ”

Deng Qiang stared at him coldly, and the two of them followed him, held down the officer, and quickly ripped off his clothes.

"Qu Shuai, spare your life! Qu Shuai, my cousin is Han Shuai's concubine, look at Han Shuai's face, spare me, spare me! ”

"Oh? Hum! Hum! Deng Qiang's expression became even more cold. You violated military discipline, do you still want to push it on Han Shuai? ”

"Huh? Don't dare, don't dare! Qu Shuai spares his life! ”

"Good! Since you said that you are Han Shuai's relative, then I will add you five whips for Han Shuai! ”

Deng Qiang said, threw the cowhide whip in his hand to his relatives, and his relatives strode forward, and his hand rose and fell!

Accompanied by the crisp sound of the leather whip, it was a terrible scream that people could not bear to hear......

Deng Qiang was unmoved, turned around and nodded at Wang Meng, made a gesture of please, the two entered the house, and Wang Meng closed the door.

Outside the door, the screams were endless.

"General Deng, please take a seat."

Deng Qiang shook his head and sighed. "Alas, Mr. Wang, Deng Mou spoke straight, don't you care, Deng Mou pondered about it again and again, and he couldn't agree." (To be continued.) )
