Chapter 209: Ask a few fathers-in-law to take a look
It is less than twenty miles away from Dongping Mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Wu Kai lifted the curtain, quietly looked out, and found that the guards near were fine, but the faces of the Red Turban soldiers farther away inevitably showed some nervous looks.
Most of these soldiers are locals, and they are naturally no strangers to the road to Dongping Mansion, plus the messenger who lost his nose before has also made a noise in front of the sentinel, and at this time many soldiers have guessed the truth, knowing that the enemy is not an impostor pretended to be a bandit, but a genuine court official!
Those rogue horse thieves were born better, but the good people of Yanggu City and Zhujiazhuang were inevitably a little uneasy, after all, it was obviously an act of rebellion to join forces with officers and soldiers -- fortunately, Wu Kai was very powerful, and this worry did not turn into a commotion.
Ay~
If the nearly 10,000 officers and soldiers were completely defeated on the road, there would be no need to chase them to the city of Dongping -- but who would have thought that the officers and soldiers would be so cowardly and retreat so decisively?
Forget it, it's useless to think about it now, let's think about whether to capture Dongping Mansion or not!
Now in front of Wu Kai, there are nothing more than two roads, one is to directly pull the flag and rebel, wave his army to capture Dongping Mansion, first connect Dongping, Yanggu, and Zhujiazhuang, and then rapidly expand his power to occupy more prefectures and counties, and finally fight with the Great Song Dynasty to see whether to change the dynasty and call it a lonely widow, or a defeat without a corpse!
However, this road sounds quite burning, but in fact the success rate is terrible.
If it had been normal times, there might still be a few percent of the success of the rebellion, but now that hundreds of thousands of troops of the imperial court have gathered in the areas of Gyeonggi and Hebei, it is really about to make a big fuss, and the imperial court will definitely give up the plan of attacking Liao and turn to encircle and suppress itself -- Wu Kai does not think that he can defeat hundreds of thousands of regular troops in just a few months of accumulation!
As for the second way, it is to take a false shot under Dongping Mansion to bluff the officials and soldiers of Dongping Mansion, and immediately lead people into the ravine, and try not to attract the attention of the officials and soldiers in the future.
The disadvantages of this are: it is difficult to replenish and slow to develop.
I'm afraid that when I work hard to develop a certain strength in the ravines and ravines, the Jin army in the north should almost come over - the Jin army in its heyday is not comparable to those soft eggs in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Special mother's!
Come to think of it, these two roads don't seem to be easy to follow.
Wu Kai angrily punched a punch on the pillow, since the left and right are not pleased, he simply made a vigorous scene, and directly picked up the flag to rebel, and then he casually got the honorific title of this king, even if the last defeat turned into ashes, he could leave his name in the annals of history!
"Someone! Command the former army ......"
"Report!"
He was about to give the order to speed up the march and capture Dongping Mansion against time, but he heard someone outside the carriage report loudly: "Master Qiyu, there are a few more messengers from Dongping Mansion!" ”
How many more emissaries have come?
These guys really don't want to give up on the Yellow River, the previous messenger has already cut off his nose, and this has sent another group of people to die!
"Nope!"
Wu Kai said categorically: "What's the matter, after defeating Dongping Mansion, just let Governor Cheng talk to me personally!" ”
It is said that after hearing this, the herald's team should have taken the order to leave, but he showed a little hesitation and said: "Master Zhuang, one of the messengers claims to be your brother-in-law Han Tao, you see ......."
Han Tao?
Those officials in Dongping Mansion sent him over, did they want to play the family card?
Wu Kai sneered, but still ordered: "Then bring him over alone, I haven't seen Han Tao for a few days." ”
After a short time, Han Tao was brought to the carriage, although he was his own relative, Wu Kai had no intention of inviting him to the car - after all, he was also a family member of a military martyr who had been raised by the imperial court for many years, who could guarantee that this kid would not come to kill his relatives in a righteous way?
Wu Song on the left, Yuan Lang on the right, Hu Sanniang bent down to pick up the curtain, Wu Kai sat in the car and said with a smile: "Brother Xian, this is a few months, you have lost a few points." ”
"When is this coming, my brother is still talking to me!"
Yum General Han Tao had no intention of being polite, and said hurriedly: "Come with me to see Gonggong Li, as long as my brother receives the holy decree, the clouds will disperse on this day!" ”
Divine decree?
What's going on here?
Wu Kai was confused when he heard this, and frowned: "What is Gonggong Li, Gonggong Wang, what is going on, you explain it to me clearly first!" ”
Seeing that he didn't mean to get out of the car, Han Tao knew that he was doubting himself, and he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it, so he had to quickly explain the reason for the matter.
But it turned out that when the Chinese Wu Zheng in the city was panicking, he suddenly heard that there were several eunuchs from outside the city who passed the decree.
Although the current situation is urgent, after verifying his identity, Governor Cheng still did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly welcomed people to the mansion.
After the two sides sat down, Cheng Zhifu realized that this group of eunuchs had come to give Wu Kai a message, and the emperor personally summoned Wu Kai to go to Bianliang, Tokyo to promote Buddhism!
Hearing this news, Cheng Zhifu and the others were like a life-saving straw - if Wu Kai was called to Bianliang, Tokyo, it would be cheap, not only would the crisis in Dongping Mansion be solved, but the Red Turban Army would not have to worry about being besieged by the army of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
How could the mage personally invited by the emperor be a thief?
As for the nearly 1,000 officers and soldiers who lost before, they only need to push it to other thieves, such as Liangshan, who has repeatedly made big noises, it is very suitable to carry this black cauldron!
So they immediately rejoiced and sent Gonggong Li and others to the side of the Red Turban Army - in order to avoid any misunderstanding between Wu Kai, they also specially invited Han Tao to accompany them.
After hearing Han Tao's words, Wu Kai jumped out of the car, grabbed Han Tao's arm regardless of it, and said hurriedly: "Do you dare to guarantee that these eunuchs are really here to pass the decree, isn't that Cheng Prefect trying to fool me?!" ”
"Brother!"
Han Tao said: "Even if they want to fool you, where are they going to find these many eunuchs?!" You can always tell if it's freshly cut or not, right?! ”
Also, if you want to find a group of eggless guys for no reason, I'm afraid it's not very easy.
At this time, Wu Kai already believed eighty percent in his heart, but this matter was at stake, and he must be ten percent sure, so he hesitated slightly, and then ordered: "Come on, go and ask those fathers-in-law to pay tribute, and see if they are really eunuchs - the father-in-law who took the lead Li will be exempted, and I will be entertained first!" ”
Although doing this, it is inevitable that you will offend those eunuchs, but you can't take care of this much in a hurry, it's a big deal to remedy it afterwards, anyway, these eunuchs are greedy for money!
If it can be determined that this holy decree is true, it is equivalent to opening a third path, as for whether this path is happy or sad, Wu Kai still needs to carefully consider it before he can be sure.
