Chapter 79: A Sword to Quell the Rebellion
In the night, Jia Han's face was a little pale, his mouth was tightly pursed, and he galloped side by side with Wang Tu. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
They had already passed Yongning Village, met Sang Yi, and said their plans. Leaving Yongning Village, when he was about to arrive at Ningyuan Village, he received a military order from Xu Ping, agreeing to their actions, and telling them to go to Guangwuling Fort first and inform Cao Keming's headquarters stationed there. If the action to kill the blind Duo Xin did not go well, he immediately retreated to Guangwuling Fort and sent a large army to suppress it. Xu Ping repeatedly instructed that it was not allowed to go its own way, and that ensuring the safety of these people was the most important thing. And officially authorized, this time by Wang Tu single-handedly commanded, and fully responsible, the rest must obey Wang Tu's orders.
At this time, it was the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, and the cold air at night was cold and biting, and the horses galloped in the Wei River Valley, and the wind blew on the face like a knife. The proton of his companion was still a little excited when he first came out of Qinzhou City, and along the way, the atmosphere became more and more solemn, and no one laughed anymore. After more than half a year of training, they have discipline, and even the preliminary fighting and fighting have been learned, but they have not gone through actual combat, nor have they gone through the drills like the Qinzhou army, and everything is just on paper. Suddenly, in the face of a real fight with real knives and guns, everyone was nervous, and the closer they got to the Ding station, the more so.
Near dawn, Wang Tu and Jia Han arrived at Yeshaokou Fort, and from there, it was the land of the Shangding clan.
The fort had already received the news of the civil strife among the Shangding tribe, and urgently recruited the surrounding soldiers into the fort, and the atmosphere was tense. In recent years, the Shangding people have been obedient and lax, and suddenly they have re-prepared for war, and they were in a hurry for a while.
Wang Tu took the military order from Xu Ping that he received on the road, met the chief general in the fort, and let the fort gate go.
Out of the Wild Spoon Mouth Fort, the further south you go, the more desolate it becomes, there is no farmland in sight, only the dark mountains on both sides, and the sound of the bubbling water of the small river not far away. The night in the mountains is exceptionally silent, and the sound of horses' hooves beating on the mountain road is crisp. It seemed that only his own heartbeat was left between heaven and earth, and he was inserted into the mountains step by step with the sound of horses' hooves.
I don't know how long I walked, but when I turned a small intersection, a torch suddenly lit up on the side of the road, and a figure flashed.
As soon as the torches flickered on the road, I heard a loud shout from the front: "Who is it?" Breaking into my Ding territory late at night is definitely not a good way to come! If you know each other, hurry up and get off the horse and explain your intentions! Otherwise, our swords and guns have no eyes! ”
The clansman who went to Qinzhou to inform Jia Han was on the tip of his ear, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Fuma Abo, it's me, Banazhi!" I went to Qinzhou to find Jia Han, and rushed back to the clan overnight! ”
"Is the little army master back? Where is it? Now that the clan is in chaos, it's good for you to come back! ”
Wang Tu gently patted Jia Han's shoulder beside him, pressed the iron sword in his hand, and slowly stepped forward with him.
The person in front of him raised the torch high, and when he saw Jia Han who was slowly coming forward in the firelight, tears couldn't help but flow: "Little army master, sure enough, you are back!" It's good for you to come back and be the master of the clan! The blind Duo was deceived by the party members, killed the old military master, and asked our people to betray the court with him and do evil! He killed several of the people of the tribe who refused to listen, and now he is gathering the people in the old master's tent, saying that they will go out of the mountain early tomorrow morning. Little army master, this is a disaster of extermination, you can't stop the blind Duo heart, our Shangding clan will be gone! ”
Jia Han has been hostage to Qinzhou since he was a child, this old man named Fuma, he only has a vague impression, and he can't remember what he has to do with him. It's just that at this time, to appease people's hearts, he got Wang Tu's instructions, turned over and dismounted, and helped the old man up.
After inquiring about the situation in the clan, I learned that the blind priest had assassinated the old chief, and although Banazhi, who reported the news, said that he had killed his father, there was no physical evidence. Since there was no direct evidence of the blind priest's intention to kill his father, he had no choice but to accept his command. However, most of the clansmen did not believe that the party could fight here, and refused to follow the blind priest to rebel against the Song Dynasty, and they have been arguing until now. The blind duo killed a few of the most fierce opponents, forcibly subdued, and will send troops today and tomorrow.
In the end, Fu Ma said: "There are a few smuggler salt dealers around the blind Duo Xin, they are the most hateful!" It was only after listening to their instigation that the blind priest did such a heartless thing! ”
Wang Tu had not been in Qinzhou for a long time and was not familiar with these things, so he asked, "Do you know these smugglers?" ”
"Yes, of course I do! In the past, many of the fried salt in my clan were sold by them. However, I heard that these people are mainly selling the green and white salt of the party, but I am afraid that they have long colluded with the party! ”
Wang Tu nodded, roughly guessing the context of the matter. When I passed through Yongning Village on the road, I already knew that Yu Zang Hua Ma led the troops to invade, and these few smuggling salt dealers came to instigate the blind priests, but I was afraid that it was just to deal with Yu Zang Hua Ma.
After asking about the situation in the clan, Wang Tu said to Jia Han: "The ancients said, shoot a man first and shoot a horse first, and capture a thief first and capture the king first." Since the blind priest's heart is unpopular, as long as we finish him off, your clan will naturally be peaceful. ”
Jia Han arched his hand: "Everything is under the orders of the sect leader!" ”
At that moment, Wang Tu asked the proton who came with him to be led by Banazhi, and secretly mixed in front of the old chief's clan tent, ready to respond at any time. Together with Jia Han, he went directly to see the blind Duo Xin with Fuma.
At this time, it was dawn, and it was the coldest time of the day, and the grass and trees on the roadside were frosty, and they made a noise when they stepped on it.
Wang Tu pressed the iron sword in his hand, and together with Jia Han, he faced the cold wind of the early morning and strode forward.
There was a touch of fish belly white on the edge of the sky, and several people arrived in front of the old chief's family tent. There were still a lot of people in front of the tent, but they were tired of arguing all night, and they fell asleep around the fire.
Walking through the crowd in front of the tent, Fu Ma arrived in front of the tent and shouted loudly: "Blind Duo Xin, Jia Han has returned, he has been ordered by the court to succeed the military master of his clan!" Why don't you come out and greet you! ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw the blind priest rushing out of the tent with an unkempt heart and a drunken body, shouting in his mouth: "We will take care of the affairs of the Shangding clan by ourselves, when will the court appoint a leader!" Daddy is gone, I am naturally the military master! ”
Seeing the blind Duo heart come out, Jia Han's eyes were red, and he shouted: "You are so bold, you dare to live in Daddy's tent without permission!" Everyone outside says that you are killing your father and seizing power, answer me honestly, have you done this unconscionable thing?! ”
Blind Duo sneered in his heart: "You are no longer a member of your own clan, can you take care of the affairs of our Shang Ding clan?" The imperial court seized our salt pond, so that we have no money in our accounts, and today we will be reversed! You are now a member of the court, and when you return to the clan, you will die by yourself, and you will borrow your head to sacrifice the flag first! ”
The two quarreled here, waking up the people who were sleeping around them, and they gathered around them. However, they gathered in a circle, watching coldly, and no one stepped forward. The blind Duo lost the hearts of the people, Jia Han entered the Nazhi Courtyard, Qinzhou had long made it clear that it had nothing to do with his own clan, and the people in the clan were at a loss. didn't want to help the blind Duo Xin, Jia Han couldn't help, so he had to let their brothers argue on their own.
Seeing five or six men walking out of the tent, all with swords on their bodies, Wang Tu stepped forward and gently pressed Jia Han's shoulder, signaling him not to speak. Then he said in a deep voice to the blind heart: "You said that you are going to do the opposite, is this true?" ”
The blind duo looked Wang Tu up and down in his heart, and said disdainfully: "Who are you?" What does it matter to you in our people? Be honest and go aside, and listen to me in a while, or be careful of your life! ”
Wang Tu pressed the iron sword in his hand, looked at the blind priest's heart, and said unhurriedly: "I am the head of the Nazhi Academy, and I was ordered by the Shuai Mansion to escort the Jiahan Hui clan and take over as the military master of my clan. Those who dare to disobey the military orders of the imperial court will be regarded as complicit in rebellion and will be punished immediately! ”
The blind duo looked back at the Qiao officials and a few salt sellers who came up, and couldn't help laughing: "You bird man, bring an iron sword and blow the atmosphere!" There are one or two thousand tents in my clan, and one person drowned you with a mouthful of spittle, and dared to shout and shout to kill, and laughed to death! ”
Wang Tu's face did not move, but he said: "Let me ask you again, are you going to plot chaos and not accept the new life of the imperial court?" You don't need to say anything, just say yes and no! ”
The blind priest motioned to Qiao Guanren to bring someone to protect him, and said loudly to Wang Tu: "I am now the military master of my clan, who is the bird what imperial court military order do you bring?" Grandpa is now the opposite, the opposite! What can you do with me? ”
Wang Tu let out a long roar, drew his iron sword like lightning, and without waiting for Qiao Guanren to react, a sword pierced his chest and stabbed him to the ground.
The blind priest was so frightened that he turned around and tried to flee back to the tent, but was kicked in the waist by Wang Tu from behind and fell to the ground.
Several salt sellers reacted, took out their swords, and stepped forward to fight. Wang Tu just turned around, flashed to the side of the blind man, pointed his sword at his chest, and said loudly: "These few party members have sneaked into your clan to instigate the blind man to kill his father and cause a big disaster!" You have to keep the Shangding tribe, and quickly take these few fine works. The court only punishes the evil, and the coercion does not care! ”
The small leaders of the surrounding clan were a little hesitant, not knowing who to help. Jia Han took a big step forward, took out the document that Liu Jian gave him before, held it high, and said loudly: "Blind priest murdering his father and plotting rebellion, heinous and heinous!" The imperial court has appointed me as the military lord of my clan, this is an official notice! Such a catastrophe happened in the clan, it was all these party items who made trouble, and everyone quickly took them and sent them to Qinzhou! If they are allowed to flee, the crime of rebellion of their own clan will not be cleared away, and it will be a catastrophe of extermination! ”
After speaking, he gestured to Fuma with his eyes.
Fu Ma understood what Jia Han meant, picked up a waist knife from the ground, and said in a loud voice: "The matter has come to this, what are we hesitating about?" took these party items and assisted Jia Han as the new army leader, everything was the same as before. Otherwise, it will be difficult to escape the catastrophe! ”
There were small leaders who had a good relationship with Fuma, and they all agreed, took out their knives and guns, and stepped forward to besiege a few salt sellers.
The blind Duo Duo was pressed to his chest by Wang Tu with a sword, and his head was trampled on tightly, and he could only watch the little leaders in front of the tent return to the crowd rounding up the salt sellers, knowing that the general trend had gone.
took the remaining few salt sellers, and Jia Han ordered them to be tied up.
Wang Tu raised his feet, bent down and lifted the blind priest's heart, and said: "To calm the trouble, you can't be left behind!" ”
After speaking, he cut off the head of the blind priest with a sword, threw it aside, and said in a loud voice: "The new army master takes over, and this thief who killed his father and seized power naturally can't stay!" Everyone listen to the orders of the new army master, and don't take advantage of the chaos to make trouble! ”
At this time, Banazhi brought a group of protons to quietly cover up, and Wang Tu whispered to Jia Han: "There are many people with mixed mouths, and it is easy to cause trouble. Let all the princes return to their tents, and be untold not to gather them together. If any of the blind henchmen refuse to listen to your orders, we will kill them. It's a foolproof solution! ”
