Chapter 443: The Tang Army's Raging Place
Second History" snorted. Road! "Let them run, Jing is happy and happy, thinking that it is ridiculous... Thief. At this time, wouldn't it be right for us to send troops to chase after us! ”
Si Cang joined the army and was still puzzled, why did he have to make them happy and happy, wouldn't he just catch them back, and the matter would be resolved as soon as possible. He asked, "Forgive the foolishness of the official, I don't understand the intentions of the lords." ”
Changshi smiled: "It's interesting to see them turn from great joy to great sorrow, don't you want to see their expressions at that time?" "Say it. Laugh. Left the warehouse. Si Cang frowned and thought, "That cloth fairy boy is just a slave. They are overjoyed and sorrowful, and there is nothing to see. I'm still too busy to get down to business! Shaking his head, he was not interested in Changshi's strange hobbies, and it had nothing to do with him to arrest and interrogate people, so he didn't think about it anymore. Go about your own business.
Changshi returned to his mansion and called his henchmen. "Take a reliable man and go after such a family," he recounted.
After hearing this, the henchman hurriedly said: "Master, after the things are grabbed, do you want to transport them back to the city directly, or find a place to hide them first?" ”
Changshi thought for a while and said, "If we snatch it from others, others will steal it from us." If you want to make things worry-free, then the best thing is to hide by your side and bring your things back to the city, who else can call us! ”
The henchman said yes and went out to run errands.
Changshi sat on the chair, closed his eyes, and thought, "Nabu Lao'er has been looting for many years. The treasure is innumerable. Just cheap for me. I want his treasure, I want his official position, and as for the women of his family, "Well, pick the good ones and keep them, and the rest of the officials will sell." The money I get is collected in the government, I don't take a penny, and I can still show that I am honest and honest! ”
Thinking that he would be able to rise to prominence and control a state in the future, the more he thought about it, the happier he became, and he actually hummed a little tune!
Changshi's henchmen took a team of family members out of the city, and when they ran to no man's land, they changed into robber clothes, and chased down the wheel prints of the Bu Xiantong family.
It had just snowed, the road was difficult to navigate, and the people near Ganzhou, because they heard that the Turks were coming, they all hid in the city, so there were almost no pedestrians on the official road, and there were only the wheel prints of Bu Xiantong's family on the road.
Chase not much. Changshi's henchmen chased after him, and the family members covered their faces with black cloths, drew their weapons, and silently covered up!
Bu Xiantong took Lord Thorn Shi's beautiful concubine and Lord Thorn Shi's treasures, and a family of about 20 people was on the way. Suddenly, I saw robbers chasing after me. The family was shocked.
The eldest son of the Bu family shouted: "Dad, how can there be robbers at this time, what should we do in our town?" ”
Bu Xiantong was also panicked, he was the butler of the assassin history. I know the dirty things in officialdom best. They left Ganzhou, and with their ability to fight each other in the officialdom, they would not send troops to chase them out until at least tomorrow, and by then they would have long since disappeared into the countryside. What's more, now that there are many major events in the city, it is impossible for the officials to put their energy on one of their servants, but it is just an evil servant who escapes with money, and it is not a big deal, and it can be bigger than more than 100,000 Turks?
But he calculated a lot, and calculated that the officers and soldiers would not chase after him immediately, but he missed one thing, that is, robbers, or officers and soldiers pretending to be robbers!
Bu Xiantong has lived for decades, only panicked for a moment, and then understood the reason, he said: "It's not a real robber, how can a real robber come out to rob in this weather, and it is impossible to know our whereabouts so quickly, so it must be the family of the officials in the city, but I don't know who sent it." ”
He said to his eldest son, "Boss, leave us alone, these people have robbed the property." It will be extinguished! You escape, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, wait for the second child to catch up, remember to find out who killed the murderer, and avenge us! ”
The eldest son cried: "Dad, how can my son escape alone, leaving you alone!" ”
"Stop talking nonsense, run away, do you really want your family to die in vain!" Bu Xiantong gritted his teeth, pushed his eldest son down, and said, "Run, run!" ”
The eldest son couldn't, so he had to ride a fast horse and run forward desperately!
After a while, Changshi's henchmen chased after him with someone, didn't say anything, brandished a knife to kill, and killed all the Bu Xiantong's family. Not a single one was left alive.
Changshi's henchmen saw the horseshoe prints on the ground. said: "If you escape one, catch up, you must get rid of it to prevent future troubles!" ”
A few of the housekeepers urged the horses and chased after them. The family members came prepared, and they all had martial arts, and they didn't chase for a while, and they saw the eldest son of the Bu family from a distance. One of the housekeepers laughed and said, "Equestrianism is not very good, you can escape so slowly!" ”
The family members took out their bows and arrows, and aimed them at the eldest son of the Bu family, and shot them down!
The eldest son of the Bu family fell from his horse and fled into the woods by the roadside, knowing that he would not be able to hide and that he would be killed, so he hid behind a tree and looked carefully to see who the person who came.
After only a few pieces of kung fu, the chasing soldiers arrived, and one of them smiled and said: "Do you still want to escape, Brother Bu, can you hear who the younger brother is?" The rest of the people laughed together and got off their horses. Slowly outflanked the forest.
As soon as he heard the voice, the eldest son of the Bu family immediately distinguished. The person who spoke just now is the family member of Changshi, and he is the family member of the assassin history, they are all family members, they usually have a lot of natural contacts, and they often eat, drink and have fun together, so as soon as he hears the voice, he knows who the murderer is!
I know that I won't escape death, but someone has to avenge it. The eldest son of the cloth family tore off the lining of his underwear, bit his fingers, wrote "The one who killed me is also a long history" on the strip of cloth and hung the strip of cloth on the tree. He was afraid that the strip of cloth would be revealed by the long historian, so he walked out of the woods quickly and said, "It turned out to be you!" Well, let me die clearly! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he drew his saber and rushed forward."
Calm was restored in the woods, and there was no sound on the avenue!
After a long time, the sound of horses' hooves was heard again in the distance. The second son of the Bu family came. He also brought back his nephew, the hard-mouthed boy! It didn't take much effort to rescue the hard-mouthed boy, Wang Ping'an left in a hurry, and the Turks were also busy pulling out the camp, so he had the time to pay attention to a stabbing historian Ding who ran to ask for a bribe, and he didn't pay attention to this matter at all.
The second son of the Bu family rescued the hard-mouthed boy and treated his injuries, so he took him around the city to chase his father and eldest brother, and the time was delayed, but because of this, they did not meet Changshi Jiading and escaped.
When they rushed to the place of the accident and saw the corpse on the road, the second son of the Bu family and the hard-mouthed boy hurriedly dismounted to check, and saw the corpse of the Bu Xiantong and the corpse of the family, and they all cried bitterly, but they didn't know who killed the family.
The hard-mouthed boy looked anxiously on the ground and shouted, "Second uncle, there is no father here!" He, he also used to say, "I saw that there were horseshoe prints on the ground." He forked out!! Uncle, my dad is doing a good job, I'll go and see! So saying, he jumped on his horse and chased down.
Chased to the edge of the forest, he saw the body of the eldest son of the Bu family, called Daddy, and pounced! The corpse was already cold, of course he couldn't ask anything, seeing that the family was dying in an unknown way, and the hard-mouthed boy was at a loss for what to do.
After crying for a long time, he saw footprints on the ground entering the forest, which seemed to be his father's footprints. I heard the second uncle say that my grandfather was greedy for a lot of treasures of the old man, maybe my father got some and hid them in the forest, but they were not taken away by the robbers. He stood up. I followed the footprints into the forest to investigate, and after a while, I saw a strip of cloth with words written on it!
It turned out to be a family sent by Changshi to kill, and the hard-mouthed boy roared angrily and rushed out of the forest, took his father's body, and returned the same way. When the second son of the Bu family saw the strip of cloth, he was also furious.
The two discussed it, and they both felt that this revenge was very difficult to revenge, here in Ganzhou, don't want to shake the long history, if you want to take revenge, in addition to assassination, you can only go to Guannei to complain, and you can only go to Chang'an to complain, other magistrates have no power to press this kind of case!
After discussing for a long time, the two really didn't find a good way, so they could only find a place. The bodies of Bu Xiantong and others were buried in the soil. The two got on their horses and walked in the direction of Liangzhou, planning to find a livelihood there first, make money to make enough money to pay for the journey, and then go to Chang'an to file a complaint.
Wang Ping'an led a large group of men and horses to the direction of Suzhou, and the more he walked to Suzhou, the more Tang troops he saw.
This time, in order to deal with the westward movement of the Turks, the Tang army at the border pass assembled in large numbers in the direction of Suzhou, and originally thought that the Turks would come to Suzhou anyway, and this would be the best place to annihilate the Turks. But he didn't expect that something would happen to the Xihacha Department suddenly, and he didn't expect Wang Ping'an to subdue all the Turks with the strength of one person.
When Wang Ping'an's messenger arrived in Suzhou, almost all the generals did not believe this fact, and they talked a lot about Wang Ping'an.
The Assassin of Suzhou and the Governor of Suzhou, as well as all the governors of all the prefectures who had arrived, held a meeting for two days in a row, and they all talked about how to deal with the Turks who had migrated westward. Wang Ping'an has already explained in his letter. The Turkic who returned to Shun would not stop in Suzhou, he only needed to provide some grain and grass, and he would take the Turks out of the customs and settle in Zheliu County.
If you don't stop in Suzhou, this is good news, but if you want to provide grain and grass, it is definitely not good news. Suzhou has already provided grain and grass to all walks of life for the Tang army, and it has long been beyond its means, how can it still give Wang Ping'an the rations needed by more than 100,000 people, not to mention the food that people eat, even if it is forage for horses, Suzhou can't afford it!
After discussion, the assassin and the governor of Suzhou had no choice but to make a decision, since the Turks had been submitted, the Tang army from all walks of life would disperse, and each returned to the prefecture to reduce the burden on Suzhou.
The governors who came to hear the request were dissatisfied in their hearts, and they thought that they could make a great contribution, but they did not succeed, but they all became Wang Ping'an's foil. That's not all, you have to rush back in the ice and snow, and when the net is assembled, you have to withdraw again, this crime really makes the governors very unhappy!
But there is no way, let me go back, I can only go back, I can't stay here, stay any longer, and when more than 100,000 Turks arrive, the food and grass will be urgent, and everyone will be hungry! The governors of the states brought their troops. began to return to their states and counties one after another.
That's why Wang Ping'an met a lot of Tang Army troops on the road. Fortunately, there was no conflict between the Tang army and the Turks, and when the governors met Wang Ping'an, they all came to meet and congratulate Wang Ping'an on his great achievements. It's also intimate, and everything goes well.
On the surface, the governors of various states inevitably complain in private, we endure hardships, you make meritorious contributions, you are all governors, why is your life so bad!
After Wang Ping'an arrived in Suzhou, everything went smoothly, there was no trouble in Ganzhou at all, and Suzhou Thorn Shi provided a part of the grain and grass, which was enough for Wang Ping'an to arrive at Yumen Pass!
Suzhou had nothing to say, and more than 100,000 Turks followed Wang Ping'an's horse and continued to hurry. The closer they get to the Yumen Pass, the more peaceful the Turks are, and outside the Yumen Pass is the folding willows, and their hard days are finally coming to an end!
Wang Ping'an everything is going well here, but Fang Xuanling and Wang Wendu are not going well, after they arrived in Liangzhou, they asked Shi Mutang about the battle situation at that time from Liangzhou, Shi Mutang tried his best to exaggerate, and praised himself and Wang Ping'an, and told the battle situation at that time, which was ten times more exaggerated than what was written in the chapter.
No way, for so many days, Shi Mutang kept recalling the situation at that time, and remembered countless "details" at that time. After careful "analysis", these details were made more concrete, and it was decided to write a book about it. It just so happened that the prime minister of the DPRK and China came to inquire, how could he not say anything special!
Fang Xuanling was helpless, in Shi Mutang's place, he didn't want to ask Wang Ping'an's fault, but he didn't achieve his goal. He had no choice but to leave Liangzhou and take Wang Wendu to Ganzhou again. But on the way, I met two people surnamed Bu, these two surnamed Bu were a pair of uncles and nephews, and when they learned that Fang Xuanling was the prime minister patrolling the border, they actually blocked the road and shouted grievances, wanting to sue Governor Gan Shi.
When Fang Xuanling asked, he actually learned that the assassin Shi of Ganzhou was dead, and according to the uncles and nephews, it was because Changshi and Wang Ping'an killed the assassin Shi, and in order to be able to successfully take over the position of the assassin, Changshi actually killed people and killed the family of Bu Xiantong, the former butler of the assassin history, and only escaped from the two of them!
Fang Xuanling had no choice but to rush to Ganzhou to deal with the matter of Changshi. But Changshi insisted that this matter had nothing to do with him, as for why Thorn Shi died, then he had to ask Da Sheng'an. And the matter of killing Bu Xiantong's family, Changshi pushed it all away, saying that he didn't know at all, he didn't know the uncle and nephew of the Bu family, how to talk about murder!
If you want to solve this case, I am afraid that you have to ask Wang Ping'an again. And Fang Xuanling and Wang Wendu didn't have time to waste in Ganzhou, so they had to take the Bu family's uncle and nephew and rush to Suzhou.
On the way, the two saw the retreating soldiers and horses of the states, and when the generals saw Fang Xuanling, they could not help but express their dissatisfaction with this assembly in their conversations. Wang Ping'an made a great contribution. Seeing that it was possible to be promoted, of course the governors would not speak ill of him directly, only saying that those Turks were too good to eat, and they divided the grain and grass of the Tang army, which caused the Tang army to rush back and forth in the cold winter, and the implication was that Wang Ping'an had too little experience to handle the affairs of the Turks. All the way to Suzhou, I heard such words on the road.
Fang Xuanling didn't say anything, just kept it in his heart, but Wang Wendu came to speak, and he said to Fang Xuanling: "It seems that the prince has no experience in leading the army, and the logistics and relief matters are not handled well." Fang Xiangye. Otherwise, when we catch up with Wang Ping'an, the command of the tens of thousands of Turkic soldiers might as well be handed over to the last general, how about it? ”
