Chapter 202: Recovery
Just as he was looking intently, a person walked over with two guards and bowed his hand: "Lord." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
It was Chen Da who came.
Wang Shen cleaned up his mood: "What's the matter?" ”
Chen Da: "My lord, I have found Mr. Donglai." ”
"Did the old brute surnamed Lu find it, where is it, lead me over quickly, and watch the young master smash his dog's head with a hammer." Yue Yun screamed angrily.
"Where is he and how is he now?" Wang Shen asked.
Chen Da hurriedly told Wang Shen in detail how he had encountered Lu Benzhong and Liu Fu before.
After hearing this, Wang Shen's heart moved, and he immediately understood what was going on. nodded: "How did the defense of Qichun City be so empty before, there were few defenders in the chaos on the city wall, it turned out that Liu Fu withdrew his men and horses, which made our army spend a lot less effort." ”
Hu Yantong suddenly realized: "In this way, Liu Fu can be regarded as a pre-battle uprising." ”
Wang Shen: "It's still unclear whether it's an uprising, but it's not good that the thief army has infighting, and Liu Fu won't help each other!" ”
Chen Da: "Lord, what is going on in this matter, the subordinates have already understood that Kong Yanzhou was a beast, Liu Fu was discouraged, and under the persuasion of Mr. Donglai, he withdrew his direct soldiers and horses and separated from the Kong army. ”
He is a spy leader, Liu Fu's situation today is really strange, after coming down, he captured a few more prisoners, and the first trial was all figured out, and he explained it for a long time at the moment.
After Wang Shen and everyone listened, they all nodded at the same time. Hu Yantong and Yue Yun both said: "The man's husband is naturally unwilling to serve under the Kong thief, and he should be the same for us." It seems that this Liu Fu is a man, and he can't be treated harshly. ”
Wang Shen: "That's true, you can't be rude to General Liu Fu, let's go, let's go over and have a look." ”
At that moment, the group walked to the courtyard where Liu Fu was being held.
I saw that the courtyard was already full of soldiers under Liu Fu, and when they heard that Wang Shen was coming, they all knelt on the ground.
Wang Shen hurriedly stepped forward and helped Liu Fu up: "I know what happened, General Liu Fu can abandon the darkness and revolt in front of the Ming Formation, and he is also a good man, please hurry up." ”
Liu Fu was moved in his heart, and his eyes were slightly red: "Thank you military envoy, Liu Fu didn't expect that the Kong thief was such a beast, he was really blind." I am now a prisoner of your ranks, but at the disposal of the general, I only ask the military envoy to spare the lives of my brothers. In this way, even if he dies, he will not complain at all. ”
"Don't worry, I guarantee the lives of your men and your personal property. If there are injuries or illnesses, they will be treated. Wang Shen said this, and when he saw that Liu Fu was about to bow down again, he hurriedly used his hands to force: "Why should the general be like this, please get up, please get up, it just rained heavily, and the soldiers are cold and hungry, why don't you go out of the city with me and settle in the barracks?" ”
Liu Fu shook his head: "Military envoy, Liu Fu is not a person who despises Kong Yanzhou, so he ordered the brothers to put down their weapons and not resist." However, the inferior people were not prisoners of the generals. The military envoy is generous and benevolent, and we thank you for not killing. However, we didn't think about serving the military envoys. ”
Hearing this, Wang Shen was slightly disappointed in his heart, and in the future battle of Jianghan, he needed to continue to expand his troops. There are many veterans in Liu Fu and Kong Yanzhou's army, and these are all experienced combat units, and they all need to be reorganized for our use, how can we let them go.
He was about to continue to persuade again, when suddenly, Lu Benzhong, who had been standing aside with his hands behind his back, suddenly pointed at Liu Fu and shouted: "Liu Fu, you are really a foolish person, but the old man wants to wake you up today." ”
Liu Fu was stunned: "I also asked Master Lu." ”
Lu Benzhong said: "Liu Fu, let me ask you, where do you want to go if you don't serve Wang Shen?" ”
Liu Fu: "My brothers and I are both from Hebei, so naturally we want to go back to our hometown." ”
"Hey, hey." Lu Benzhong sneered and asked: "Hebei has already fallen into the hands of the Jurchens, if you go back to Hebei, is that to join the enemy?" ”
Liu Fu said: "Naturally not, a certain dignified man, how can he shave his hair and be easy to obey his ancestors." ”
"That's right, now it will be Hebei, the road is difficult and dangerous, can you walk with hundreds of people?"
Liu Fu hesitated: "The world is so big, where is not a place to live?" ”
"So you're going to be a bandit, and you're still doing business without capital?" Lu Benzhong sighed and said: "General Liu, you are also a man, and you have some skills in leading troops to fight, so why should you be willing to fall?" You don't want a future, but you have to give your soldiers a way out, and you can't let them end up. It is better to accept Zhao'an and surrender the Sizhou army. If you make meritorious deeds in the future, you can also glorify the lintel. ”
Hearing this, looking at his subordinates who were soaked and pale, Liu Fu thought about it, and only felt that the world was so big that there was nowhere to go.
Lu Benzhong said again: "I know you have concerns, after all, you and your brothers have fought many battles in the Sizhou army in the past two months, and they have a grudge against each other. But don't worry, Major General Kong Xian Kong will definitely serve under Wang Shen in the future, you and your soldiers can be incorporated into his army, and everyone will be a family in the future, so why divide each other? ”
This has been made very clear, Kong Lin will marry Wang Shen in the future, Kong Xian is the brother-in-law of the Wang family, and the Sizhou army will naturally regard the old man of the Kong family army as his own brother.
Liu Fu looked at his subordinates again, and saw that everyone was eager on their faces. sighed, knelt down and kowtowed respectfully three times: "Thanks to the military envoy, I am willing to serve the general." ”
At this time, Wang Shen didn't help, and let him make a big gift.
Lu Benzhong's words just now reminded Wang Shen that the soldiers of the Kong family army really need to have a commander who can shock them, and the generals under him are obviously inappropriate, it is better to let Kong Xian take them, at least he used to be the major general of the Kong family army, even if he is a mascot.
Seeing that Liu Fu had surrendered to Wang Shen, the captives were all relieved at the same time. Then, together with Liu Fu, under the guidance of several Sizhou army officers, they lined up and drove out of the city one after another to settle in the military camp outside the city.
At this time, Lu Benzhong suddenly pointed at Wang Shen and giggled.
Wang Shen was inexplicably laughed at by him, and touched his nose: "Mr. Donglai, what are you laughing at?" ”
"Wang Shen, Wang Shen, how did you take this Qichun City, you must already know it?"
Wang Shen nodded: "I already know." ”
"Haha, the old man only needs a little trick to let the Confucian thief give him the head and hand over Qi Chunjian City to you. Wang Shen, you say, how can you thank me? Lu Benzhong was high-spirited and triumphant, and his fingers couldn't help pointing at Wang Shen.
"Old horseman, a rebellious thief, he actually made such a big statement, I have to tear you alive today!" At that end, annoyed Yue Yun, he suddenly pulled out the golden gourd hanging on his waist and was about to smash it on Lu Benzhong's head.
Yes, this old man is really hateful, when he saw the military envoy mouthful of "Wang Shen", he also pointed and poked, and it was difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart if I didn't kill him.
"Yes, slaughter this old punk. Straight lady thief, if he hadn't built so many instruments, we would have won Qi Chun a long time ago! ”
"So many people died because of the old miscellaneous hair, and if you don't kill him, how do you want Brother Pao Ze to explain?"
"Kill, kill!"
The weapons in almost everyone's hands were slashed at Lu Benzhong's head at the same time, seeing that he was about to be chopped into meat sauce by everyone.
"Sonorous!" "Dang!" The Dacheng knife in Wang Shen's hand came out of its sheath, knocked all the weapons open in an instant, and shouted in a deep voice: "Stop, in front of Mr. Donglai, you dare to make a mistake?" ”
Six or seven weapons were fixed in the air, and the torn air currents blew so that people couldn't open their eyes.
Lu Benzhong groaned, sat on the ground, and trembled.
I saw that the soldiers of the Sizhou army in front of me all had faces like blue indigo, shaped like fierce gods in the temple. Yes, they have already started to kill.
The shadow of death hung over his head, and Lu Benzhong couldn't say a word.
The reason why Wang Shen was so embarrassed in Qichun City in the past two months was all due to Lu Benzhong. Besides, this Lu Benzhong, for his own selfishness, caused so many people to starve on the roadside, which is really a heinous crime. Wang Shen hated this old man to the bone, and his soldiers wanted to divide him with knives, and Wang Shen naturally saw it.
However, in the midst of the lightning, Wang Shen suddenly remembered that Zhang Jun and Li Heng were almost in Qichun. He killed the officials of the imperial court and killed a world-famous celebrity, but this political influence could not be beared.
At least for now, he, Wang Shen, still needs to expand his territory and accumulate strength under the banner of Zhao Song. Once you turn your face with the court, there will be countless troubles, and the wise will not do it.
At the last moment, the waist knife was unsheathed and saved Lu Benzhong's life.
Wang Shen retreated from his subordinates, helped Lu Benzhong up, pretended to be guilty, and said: "Mr. Donglai, the soldiers have all killed sex, and if you offend, please be surprised." The city is very dirty, please go back to the barracks with Wang Shen to rest. ”
Lu Benzhong's feet were so weak that he couldn't stand, and he only asked in a trembling voice: "Daosi, Daosi, what are you going to do to the old man in the future?" ”
Wang Shen: "Mr. is kind to me, Wang Shen is naturally grateful. Wait for two days to rest in the barracks, there is a big gift, isn't Mr. going back to the court, now the Jurchen has retreated and returned to the north, Kong Yanzhou was exterminated by me, and the Yangtze River waterway has been opened. In the near future, I will prepare a big ship and send my husband to Lin'an. ”
"That's good, that's good."
Frightened, Lu Benzhong's mental state was very poor, after all, he was an old man. However, Old Man Lu refused to go back to the tent to rest, saying that he was afraid of being harmed by others, and he wanted to stay by Wang Shen's side, which made Wang Jun's heart tired, but he was helpless.
Not long after sitting down in the Chinese army's festival tent, the results of the battle on the front line have already been counted.
In this battle, the Sizhou army beheaded more than 600 ranks, captured 2,163 remnants of the Kong army, and thousands of people. As for the Sizhou army, 100 were killed and more than 100 wounded.
To be honest, such a record is not worth mentioning at all compared to field battles. However, there are quite a few seizures of various types of military assets.
Although the grain in the city has been eaten, Kong Yanzhou has been plundered all the way through most of China, and there are countless gold, silver and jewels in the treasury. Among them, not counting the mountains of copper coins, there are more than 400 ingots in silver alone, which made Wang Shen make a fortune. Although these things should not be eaten or drunk, they are used to reward and compensate meritorious and casualty soldiers, and it is excellent to pay allowances to soldiers.
