Chapter 145: Friend and Foe

(a)

Bai Qi stopped talking, looked around, and said to Wei Changfeng: "Let's go into the tent and talk slowly."

On the side, Zheng Dutong heard Bai Qi talk about what the Boyi Gang was, and he also wanted to follow and listen, seeing Bai Qi and Wei Changfeng going to the tent, he also stepped forward, but was blocked by the guards, so he had to stop, he thought about it in his heart, and decided to ask the prince, who wants to come to the people's house, they should have knowledge, and this matter should be known.

Wei Changfeng followed Bai Qi into the tent, Bai Qi first checked the furnishings in the tent, and said to Wei Changfeng: "Brother Xian, you'd better change the position of the bed often." ”

Wei Changfeng nodded, knowing that this was Bai Qi's concern, but even if he changed the position of the bed every day, he couldn't prevent the assassin, and in the final analysis, he had to know where the assassin came from.

Bai Qi sat down and said to Wei Changfeng: "This Boyi Gang is named after the allusion of Boyi Shuqi. ”

Wei Changfeng let out an "ah".

He naturally knows the allusion of Boyi Shuqi, these two are the two sons of Guzhujun at the end of Shang. According to legend, his father ordered his second son Shu Qi to be the heir. After the death of Guzhujun, Shu Qi gave way to Bo Yi, but Bo Yi did not accept it, and Shu Qi did not want to ascend the throne, so they all fled to the Zhou State one after another. King Wu of Zhou fell, and the two knocked on the horse to admonish him. After King Wu destroyed the Shang, they ate Zhou Su shamefully, picked roses and ate, and starved to death in Shouyang Mountain. This is a model of loyalty and observance.

It seems that this gang is not a coarse person who is completely uneducated, and it is also very elegant to be able to use this code as the name of the gang, but this name is too peculiar, why do you want to use this allusion? Is it because ......

Wei Changfeng stood up violently.

He understood why he wanted him to come to the tent to talk about it.

This gang is made up of people loyal to the Western Han Dynasty!

Now it is the Eastern Han Dynasty, but these people are just like Uncle Boyi, who is ashamed of Zhou Su, and refuses to recognize the Eastern Han Dynasty, so they take the name of Boyi. They came to kill themselves as a hoe. You must know that Lu Daowei Changfeng is a descendant of Wei Qing, a famous general of the Western Han Dynasty, after being a famous general of the Western Han Dynasty, he helped the "anti-thief" in the eyes of these people to fight, what is it if he is not a traitor? It's just that after they learned that they were Wei Qing, they didn't know.

Bai Qi also thought of this, so he asked Wei Changfeng to come into the account. Of course, Wei Changfeng knew that he had no contact with these people, but if this matter spread out, everyone's first question would definitely be: Why did this assassin only kill Wei Changfeng, and not others?

The result was obvious: because Wei Changfeng betrayed the gang.

Another conclusion is that Wei Changfeng may have been connected to this gang, or even once a member of this gang.

This is a great sin of rebellion!

Bai Qi looked at Wei Changfeng's performance and knew that Wei Changfeng had already understood what he meant. If you can't say something like this, you can't say it, don't say it, don't say that he is not a mouthy person, even if he is a mouthy person, it is best not to say this kind of thing. So he didn't explain any more, but just asked, "Brother Xian, how did you probably guess that you are a descendant of General Wei Qing?" ”

Wei Changfeng shook his head. He didn't know who had sent it out. But there are actually a lot of people who know about this matter, when he first met Zhao Zi'an, many people heard Zhao Zi'an talk about it, and later it was said that Zhu Ling and Fang Zhenhai also knew about it, so where did it come from, there is really no way to investigate. As for how the gang sent the Assassins in, since the Assassins are dead, there is no accountability.

Seeing that Wei Changfeng shook his head, he also frowned, and said, "This matter has to be studied with General Fang." I know that this Boyi gang is operating in this area, but they have always been enemies of the Donghu people before, I didn't expect them to send someone to assassinate you, if it is just to assassinate you alone, it is okay to say, but this incident is very likely to show that they want to take action against our army, which is a big deal. ”

Wei Changfeng nodded.

Bai Qi is right. The Han army will attack further forward until it captures the royal city, if there is such a gang harassing on the back road, it is very likely to face big trouble, so this gang must be eliminated in order to enter the army with peace of mind. It's just that this is a difficult thing inside and out, you must know that these people are also enemies of Donghu, and clearing out the Boyi Gang is tantamount to infighting. But if you don't know how to suppress it, you really can't fight Donghu with peace of mind.

"Early tomorrow morning, I will personally tell General Fang." Wei Changfeng said.

Bai Qi smiled: "Where is 'tomorrow', it's today." ”

Wei Changfeng was shocked to realize that the time had passed three watches, and he also smiled.

Bai Qi yawned and said to Wei Changfeng: "Brother Xian, Brother Fool is a little tired during the day, and some can't hold on, Brother Xian is at his own convenience, I want to go sleep for a while." ”

Wei Changfeng nodded hurriedly and told Bai Qi to go and rest quickly.

Bai Qi went out of the tent, and waited until the lights in the guard chief's tent had been extinguished, then he quietly called several guards, ordered more manpower, and guarded the three sentry posts, and personally checked around the tent several times and arranged the sentry posts. When all this was done, it was nearly four watches, and the sky was a little white.

(2) Early in the morning, Wei Changfeng went straight to General Fang's big tent.

This time, he not only had to take the initiative, but also report it as soon as possible, if he reported this kind of matter himself, there was no major matter, if he let others report it first, but he was suspected of concealing it, and the reason for concealing it can also be inferred: he already had an anti-Eastern Han heart.

Therefore, this matter cannot wait until the account is raised, and it must be reported early.

Fang Zhenhai had actually been waiting for Wei Changfeng to come.

He already knew about yesterday's assassin incident, and he also knew through other channels that this matter was related to the Boyi Gang, how could he turn a deaf ear to such a major incident, so he had already gotten up. As soon as Wei Changfeng asked to see him, he was immediately summoned into the account.

Wei Changfeng briefly talked about last night's incident, but Fang Zhenhai had already planned it, and said: "It is said that there are quite a few people in this gang, and they can gather at every turn, and there can be thousands of people at most times, and many surrounding counties and towns have their eyes and ears. Now that they have taken action against us this time, these gangs must be eliminated as soon as possible to prevent our army from being disturbed. ”

Wei Changfeng's heart hesitated.

The relationship between these people and the Han army is actually very strange. If they are enemies, they are mortal enemies with Donghu, and if they are friends, they are mortal enemies with the Han army. He thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have to kill them all?" ”

Fang Zhenhai smiled and replied, "They are all big Han people, where can they make such a decisive decision." It's best to be able to surrender, but if you can't, there's no way to do it. ”

Wei Changfeng nodded, seeing that there was nothing else to do, he was about to get up and say goodbye, but Fang Zhenhai stopped Wei Changfeng, picked up an official document from the table, and said to him: "Congratulations to General Wei, the military department has agreed to your promotion to General Chang, but the war is urgent, the road is far away, and you can't pay homage to the general for a while, so I congratulate you with an official document." ”

Wei Changfeng was a little surprised, one was surprised that he was suddenly promoted to General Chang, and the other was surprised that he was promoted to General Chang but could not worship the general.

Fang Zhenhai was actually even more unexpected. He previously angrily criticized the official document of the Ministry of War, and strongly contradicted it, saying that Wei Changfeng had made three achievements in one battle, and should be General Chang, and thought that the Ministry of War would either not approve Wei Changfeng's appointment of General Changfeng, or approve it.

No need to ask, this is Zhu Ling's handiwork again. This sinister villain has a lot of experience in bargaining, Fang Zhenhai was angry, and Zhu Shilang knew that he was no longer reasonable, so he had to give in, but this did not mean that he did not make some small moves. Now, his small action is: you can be promoted, but you can't worship the general. It's good to get some face back.

However, Fang Zhenhai didn't intend to be unforgiving. He is upright, yes, but he is not blindly brutal, since Wei Changfeng's appointment of General Chang has come down and taken advantage of it, he will just let go of the face, and it will not benefit anyone if he is in a hurry, so he will help the military department against his will.

Wei Changfeng is indispensable, although it is indeed a pity that he can't worship the general, but the reason of the military department is magnificent, what can you do? So he nodded in thanks, but felt a lot of pressure in his heart. This time, I'm afraid I'm going to have to be on my own.

The two then studied personnel promotion. Since Wei Changfeng is already General Chang, it is natural that someone will take over the general, Wei Changfeng proposed that Bai Qi take over, Fang Zhenhai had already heard of Bai Qi's ability, and nodded in agreement. As for the other general, it is troublesome, because there is a shortage of manpower now, where is it urgently transferred from? The two studied for a while, and Wei Changfeng proposed to simply let Zheng Liulai be a fictitious general first.

Fang Zhenhai was very surprised by this proposal.

This Zheng Liu was originally a painter, and it was already a special treatment for him to be a fictitious junior, and now he was promoted to a fictitious rank and became a fictitious general, which is really a bit contrary to common sense, but Wei Changfeng was extremely insistent in his words, after all, Wei Changfeng was the commander of the second team, as long as there was no major problem with his appointment, Fang Zhenhai was not too refuted, so he had to reluctantly agree.

In fact, Wei Changfeng has his own plans for doing this. Because he doesn't want to let the unmeritorious people rise up randomly.

Now the second team lacks a general, if it is transferred from another team, it is inevitable that the strength of the other teams will be damaged, if it is not transferred, it is urgent to promote one indiscriminately, in case it is incompetent, but it is not easy to do, so his idea is to let Zheng Liu occupy this position first, and then appoint another person when there is a suitable person in the future, naturally, this must be negotiated with Zheng Dutong first, and he will be a false position and may be won at any time.

The discussion between the two has ended, and it is not too early to see that it is not early, and after a while, it will be the time to raise the tent and gather the generals, and Wei Changfeng will not leave, and will simply wait in the tent.

After a while, seeing that it was only a moment since the reunion was about to be gathered, the guard suddenly came to report: "The prince asks to see him." ”

Fang Zhenhai frowned and replied, "Tell him to come back in an hour, and now I want to gather generals." ”

The guard didn't move, and said, "The prince said that if General Fang refuses to meet, he can only write a chapter and report it." ”

Fang Zhenhai heard this strangely, and asked, "What report?" What to report? ”

The guard shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, the prince only asked me to pass on the word like this." ”

Fang Zhenhai snorted angrily, he was not afraid of the strange threat of the prince-in-law, but he really didn't understand what the prince meant by saying this, he thought for a moment and said, "Please let him in." ”
