Chapter 17: What Did Lao Tzu Hear?

It is said that Cai Mao and Kuai Yue were raised as representatives by the scholars and sent to Deng Cheng to negotiate with He Chen on the matter of Xiangyang.

When the two of them just arrived in Fancheng, Xiangyang had a big change.

Chen Sheng and Sun Hu, at the instigation of Deng Zhi, hosted a banquet for the leaders of various families in the Changbo Pavilion ten miles outside Xiangyang City. The implication is that he may be the minister of the first palace in the future, hoping to release his suspicions with the scholars and ease the relationship.

The location of this Changbo Pavilion is very cleverly chosen, and it is one of the few open areas in Xiangyang, where all the scenery can be seen and it is not easy to hide soldiers. Sun Hu and Chen Sheng only brought more than a dozen guards with them, showing their determination to reconcile with the scholars. Of course, in order to prevent opinions, it is better to let his subordinates lead 3,000 men and horses and stop five miles away, so that in case of emergencies, they can also come to support in time.

Xiao is like this, the wealthy families of the scholar clan either disdain it, or send insignificant people to the banquet, and they are simply ashamed to be with Chen Sheng and Sun Hu. The cause of the incident was that Sun Zihu sent troops to rob the rich merchants in the city and harvest grain, which inevitably touched the interests of the wealthy clan, and then the two sides clashed and fought, and many direct disciples of the scholars died at the hands of the thieves. Where are you willing to give up now?

This can make Chen Sheng and Sun Hu angry on the spot, and they can't stop scolding, and their words are vicious, which makes people look sideways.

A good gift wine, just like that, it broke up unhappily.

On the way back to the village for the first time, the two thieves were suddenly slashed and killed by four or five masked men who rushed out of the ground. One of the leaders made a double halberd, extremely brave and powerful, more than ten guards could not resist at all, Chen Sheng died on the spot, Sun Hu was injured and fled back. And the masked man saw that he had already reached it, and did not chase after him, but fled in a puff of smoke.

Sun Hu fled back to Dazhai, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, the more he thought about it, the more he felt like he was being put on the stove, and his anger became more and more intense.

At this time, Deng Zhi panicked and said: "General Chen is gone, and it is difficult to escape the blame." He should have been guilty of the crime, but the stakes were high. It is necessary to find out everything clearly, and give General Chen justice. I wonder who the general guessed was doing this? ”

Sun Hu was lucky, he only suffered some minor injuries, not to the point of hurting his muscles and bones, and now he has stopped the blood, but the pain on his body cannot be eliminated, he hummed and chirped while saying angrily: "Who else can it be?" Outside of the scholars' family, who can do such a thing? ”

"Did the general recognize their faces?"

"This assassin is carefully prepared, uniform black suit, with a black cloth on his face, deliberately concealed, where can he see his face."

"Is there a conversation, or is there something that is said?" Deng Zhi is like a gray wolf who lures the little white rabbit, and he is good at seducing him.

That's right, under Deng Zhi's intentional guidance and questioning, Sun Hu remembered that someone shouted at that time: "Return Yang Yan's life." Sun Hu vaguely remembered that this Yang Yan was a descendant of the Yang family of the wealthy family in Xiangyang, and was killed by random arrows in the previous conflict.

"Slap" Sun Hu slapped the table angrily and got up, going to affect the injuries on his body, and only gasped a few times in pain.

"Yang Hao, I swear to you that I don't have two interests." Although Sun Hu fell into the grass, he and Chen Sheng were brothers, the two had a very strong relationship, and now they were injured, Chen Sheng was even more killed, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and then he grabbed Deng Zhi with one hand tightly, and begged: "The private army of the Xiangyang clan is strong, and I can't help it for a while, and I also ask Mr. Deng to rush back to Dengcheng overnight, face the state pastor, and make the decision for the villain." ”

Deng Zhi sneered: "Don't worry, the previous Zhou Mu angrily copied dozens of scholars in Nanyang, and he knew that he hated them to the core. Now General Sun only has to raise troops to take revenge, and a certain person immediately returns to Dengcheng and reports to the state pastor, asking him to raise troops to help. ”

Sun Hu was overjoyed when he got Deng Zhi's promise, and set off with a large army overnight, ready to take revenge on the Yang family.

That night, Sun Hu, who poured out of the nest, touched the Yang family's mining land and began to kill wildly. Taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the Yang family, they slaughtered 300 men of the Yang clan, connived at the soldiers to annihilate the silver women, looted the wealth, destroyed their shrines, dug up their graves, and then threw their bones into the wilderness. Poor Yang family, after hundreds of years of ups and downs, but once the foundation of the ancestral tomb was destroyed.

Sun Hu saw that Chen Sheng's revenge was avenged, vented the hatred in his heart, and wanted to transfer the battlefield and return to the garrison, but was intercepted by the other Shijia alliance sent by the wind to the south of the mountain, the two sides were holding back a belly of fire in their hearts, catching and tearing each other, and they could not be separated, as time went by, more and more corpses piled up, countless blood flowed into a small river, stumps and broken arms fell all over the ground, white brains, and colorful internal organs can be seen everywhere. The screams of both sides resounded through the mountains, and the bright red of the Han River did not retreat.

Tearing up and killing overnight, countless demolitions. Seeing that the clan was powerful and invincible, Housun Hu led his troops to fight and retreated to the camp.

The Yang people were slaughtered, the foundation was completely destroyed, and Xiangcheng was shocked.

The Xi family, who had a close relationship with the Yang family, the Pang family, who had mutual marriages, and the Huang family, who had business dealings, even said that the major clans were united, and the private troops were unified, and wave after wave of strong attacks were launched against the thieves. Under Deng Zhi's suggestion, Sun Hu avoided guarding the mountains and defended according to the danger, and the Shi tribe was difficult to conquer for a while, with countless casualties.

Cai Mao, who hurriedly chased back to Xiangyang, was furious, and hurried to He Chen, while leading troops to open the city gate, wanting to borrow Nanyang's soldiers to kill the thieves. At this time, He Chen's army had already crossed the Han River south and was approaching the city. With the help of Cai Mao, the autumn wind swept away the night and swept Xiangyang, Sun Hu thought that He Chen was coming to be a peacemaker, and happily went to greet him, but he didn't want the Nanyang army to turn his face and not recognize people, so he rushed to kill, and died in the chaos, and there were countless descendants.

In this battle, He Chen not only pacified the thieves, but also entered Xiangyang strongly, and the Shi family suffered countless casualties in this firefight, the elite soldiers were exhausted, and the power was greatly reduced. Although the wise men of Xiangyang all suspected that He Chen was behind the ghost, but now that the heavy troops are pressing, the general trend has gone, and the ensuing differentiation and discord can only be swallowed by broken teeth.

Guo Jia's plan to drive away the tiger and devour the tiger almost allowed He Chen to take Xiangyang without a single soldier. Not only did he except Sun Hu and Chen Sheng, who were on the one side of the disaster, but by the way, they also cut and beat each other, and the strength of the entire Xiangyang Shi clan dropped by at least half, and He Chen made great contributions to completely controlling the entire Xiangyang County. Guo Jia's plan seems simple, but it is not easy at all to cause the two parties to fight. First of all, we must understand the surnames of Chen Sheng and Sun Hu to the extreme; Secondly, the requirements for Deng Zhi's mouth material and courage are more demanding, and he can guide profits according to the situation and lure them step by step. Finally, they are very particular about the timing of entering Xiangyang.

It was not until this moment that Guo Jia really sat on the seat of He Chen's number one military division, and everyone admired this young man who was gentle, but gestured and set off the monstrous waves of Xiangyang.

Xiangyang must be, and what followed was the shaking of Nanjun.

Sure enough, as Guo Jia expected, it didn't take long for Nanjun Taishou to send the official document to He Chen.

Now that Xiangyang has been pacified, He Chen began to collect talents, and the more famous figures in the Three Kingdoms were invited one by one. Among them, Cai Mao, Xiang Lang, Xiang Pet, Xi Zhen, Jing Yue, and Jing Liang all joined his command. Longtao generals like Cai Zhong, Cai He, Xiang Shengchuan and so on.

This time, He Chen led the guards to visit Xiangyang celebrity Huang Zu.

To say that this Huang Zu is indeed a character, Sun Jian crossed the river to attack Liu Biao, that is, he died at the hands of Huang Zu, and he has his own method of training the navy. And Huang Zu also has a son named Huang Jie, who is also a character. He Chen is now eager to pull all of them to his side as long as he is a celebrity of the Three Kingdoms. Before this, He Chen also visited Pang Degong, but this old guy had no intention of becoming a leader, and then began to inquire about Pang Tong, only to know that this kid is only 10 years old now, a little child, and he has the intention to collect and cultivate, but after thinking about it, it is better to wait for him to grow up naturally, and then Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and other characters are better in one pot? Then this guy went to find Mr. Shuijing again, but he was traveling all over the world at this time, and he didn't know where he was.

In short, in Xiangyang's celebrity homes, He Chen almost patronized them.

This Huang ancestor is a big surname in Xiangyang, it is said to be a branch of the Huangxiang family, and the mansion is located in the most prosperous center of Xiangyang. The door is high in Zhu Mansion, the round plaque is golden, a pair of stone lions are carved to stand on the side of the two fans, the carving is skillful and fine, the teeth and claws are opened, it is vivid, vivid and lively, there are several layers of bluestone steps again, and the style of the scholar is exhausted.

As soon as He Chen arrived at the door, he saw a few maid guards leading the young girl and a little young master out of the mansion.

This little girl looks very strange, although it is exquisite, but it is not like an ordinary woman in the Central Plains at all, but yellow hair, black skin, black eyes, but with a light blue light, how to look like a mixed race in the current society, just like a ceramic doll as exquisite. He Chen was a little surprised for a while, this was the first time he had seen a half-breed since he came to this world. Could it be that Huang Zu is particularly interested in these blue-eyed blonde girls? Otherwise, how could they have worked hard all night, clearing the wasteland and sowing seeds, so that this mixed-race child was born?

The reason why He Chen is so sure of Huang Zu's daughter is that this little girl's clothes are extremely gorgeous, and it is impossible for ordinary people to have them. Secondly, the attitude of the guard and the maid, it is clear that she is detached.

The little girl was surprisingly bold, and seeing that He Chen didn't squint and kept staring at her, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Silly Da'er." Then he left a string of children's voices as crisp as silver bells, and went out to play happily.

"Brother, hurry up, Shuo'er wants that clay monkey today."

"Alright, here we go"

“……”

He Chen looked at their lively and happy appearance, and couldn't help but sigh, it's good that children are carefree.

"Wanzhen, don't go so fast, wait for my brother."

"Plop" He Chen was unsteady in his steps, and almost fell and ate.

Grass, what did Lao Tzu hear?

Huang Shuo? Huang Wanzhen?
