Liu Zhengming, the procurator of the sentence, carefully told Wang Sen's origin, and after listening to it, Zhao Guohua understood. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wenxiang Sect leader Wang Sen was originally named Shi Nature, and later changed his name to Wang Sen and Wang Dawson. Beizhili is a native of Jizhou, Shuntianfu (now Jixian County, Tianjin). Originally a "leather worker in Jizhou", he later worshiped Luo Menghong's daughter Foguang and Sun Vacuum as teachers to practice Wuwei teaching, and founded Mahayana Buddhism in Foguang. And in Luanzhou, where he lives, he has created a religious holy place - the stone Buddha mouth of the "Smelling Fragrance Sect".

In the forty-third year of Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty (1564), he called himself "Dharma King Stone Buddha", and also ordered his teaching name to the Mahayana Sect, because its birthplace was in Jingdong, so it was called the Eastern Mahayana Sect, which was different from the Buddha's vast Theravada Sect and the Western Mahayana Sect of Baoming Temple in the west of Beijing.

Wang Sen claimed to be the leader of the Smelling Fragrance Sect, so the Eastern Mahayana Sect was also called the Smelling Fragrance Sect. In the twenty-third year of Wanli (1595), he was arrested, sentenced to death, and released for bribery. In the 42nd year of Wanli, Li Guoyong, a disciple of Wang Sen, fought against him and betrayed him, and Sen was arrested again. In the forty-seventh year of Wanli, he died in prison.

After Wang Sen's death, his third son, Wang Haoxian, inherited the teachings.

During his tenure in charge, on the one hand, he cooperated with the imperial court, and on the other hand, secretly planned with Xu Hongru in Shandong, Zhou Yin in Beizhili and other sect leaders in order to seize the world.

In the second year of the Apocalypse, Xu Hongru, Yu Hongzhi and others led the peasants to rise up. After the failure of the uprising, Wang Haoxian fled south with his wife and concubine and son. In the winter of the third year of the Apocalypse, Wang Haoxian was arrested in Yangzhou and killed at the beginning of the fourth year of the Apocalypse.

After listening to the history of the Wenxiang Sect, Zhao Guohua asked again: "How did the Wenxiang Sect and the Black Tiger Village hook up?" ”

The Wenxiang Sect was mainly based on alchemy, and the purpose of collecting money was to better support alchemy, but later the missionary treatment (wealth accumulation) had remarkable "results" and was keen on politics, so he gave up alchemy and specialized in collecting money. And the Black Tiger Village is composed of some outlaws, what they need is money, and both sides have their own plans, which is united. Liu Dayong, the prefect of Jinan, analyzed.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Guohua asked, "What about Huang Jiaji?" ”

"Huang Jiaji shields criminals, takes in outlaws, and confronts the government, sooner or later it will be a scourge, and this cancer must be eradicated." Song Xuezhu said.

Zhao Guohua drank tea and silently thought about the plan of action, and Zhang Bingwen and others looked at him quietly.

After thinking about it carefully for a while, Zhao Guohua said: "Huangjiaji is easy to do, but the Black Tiger Village is a little difficult to do, and you need to use some brains." ”

"Why did General Zhao say that?" Zhang Bingwen asked.

Originally, he thought that with the combat strength of the General Yong Corps, it should not be difficult to sweep away the Black Tiger Village, but he didn't want Zhao Guohua to say that it was a little difficult, he thought that Zhao Guohua was shirking.

Zhao Guohua glanced at everyone and said: "It is not too difficult to sweep away the Black Tiger Village, the trouble is how to wipe out the leaders of the Black Tiger Village, so that we can catch the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect hiding in the Black Tiger Village." Tarzan is so big, once it escapes, it will be difficult to find it again. ”

"So that's the case, the old man thought General Zhao was ......," Zhang Bingwen said, laughing embarrassedly.

In the end, after everyone's discussion, we finally came up with a plan, so everyone went separately and prepared to go.

Shanxi Town General Soldier Mansion, this morning, the chief soldier Wang Zhong was drinking and sleeping with the fourth concubine in his arms, this concubine is called Ma Yumei, 20 years old this year, born in a green building, looks charming and charming, Wang Zhong likes her the most.

"Master, it's dawn, you're about to get up." Ma Yumei pushed Wang Zhong angrily.

Wang Zhong opened his eyes, glanced at her sleepily, pinched her snow-white buttocks, and said with a lewd smile: "It's all your fault for being a little prodigal hoof, I couldn't stop last night, and I was so tired that my lord's back hurt." ”

With a red face and a shy glance at him, Ma Yumei said coquettishly: "Master, since you are tired, the slave family will sleep alone in the future, please don't come to disturb the slave family." ”

"Nonsense, the lord is not afraid, as the saying goes, the peony flower dies, and the ghost is also romantic, come on, the lord wants you back now." As he spoke, he rolled over and went up.

At this time, a "dong dong" drum beat came from the direction of the school field.

Wang Zhong was stunned for a moment, and was thinking about who had the courage to beat the drum indiscriminately, when a hurried footsteps arrived at the door, "Marshal, King Lu Yan is here, waiting for you in the school field." His henchman Jiang Ping was shouting.

"Huh?" Wang Zhong screamed, hurriedly got out of bed and put on his clothes, and asked as he put them on, "How many people did he bring?" ”

Jiang Ping said: "I brought more than 200 Tianxiong troops, and it seems that those who came are not good. ”

Hearing that Lu Xiangsheng only brought more than 200 Tianxiong troops, Wang Zhong breathed a sigh of relief and said in his heart: "Even if you fight ten at a time, you will be able to withstand more than 2,000 people, but Lao Tzu has tens of thousands of people, and I am afraid that you will not succeed." ”

After putting on his clothes and wearing his armor, he walked out of the general soldier's yamen, mounted his horse, and walked towards the school with a group of family members.

In order to catch Wang Zhong off guard, on the third day after the order to check the army was issued, Lu Xiangsheng rushed to Shanxi Town with his guards overnight, and finally arrived in Taiyuan after dawn.

Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi Province, is also known as the state, known as Jinyang in ancient times, also known as Longcheng, "is the control of mountains and rivers, standing on the shoulders of the world", "the key to the four stops, the capital of the five plains".

Taiyuan City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and has the reputation of "Splendid Taiyuan City" since ancient times, and is an important military town in northern China.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan and Li Shimin were stationed in Taiyuan, because Jinyang was known as the Tang State in ancient times.

After Li Yuan's father and son set the capital of Chang'an, they took "Tang" as the country name. During the period of five dynasties and ten kingdoms, the Later Tang Dynasty, the Later Jin Dynasty, the Later Han Dynasty, and the Northern Han Dynasty, or originated in Jinyang, or took this as the national capital, and for a time Taiyuan was famous in the whole country, and it was said to be the "Dragon City".

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang named his third son Zhu Di as the king of Jin in Taiyuan, expanded Taiyuan City, and became the head of the nine-sided important town in the Ming Dynasty.

"Knock knock ......", a soldier was beating the drum vigorously.

With the sound of drums, one by one the officers hurriedly walked into the school field, and an officer with a fat body wearing the color of a guerrilla general's uniform scolded as he walked: "Knock on a fart, and don't fight, Lao Tzu was woken up after sleeping for a while." ”

After saying this, an officer beside him hurriedly stabbed him with his hand, and pointed around the platform, some strange soldiers with bright armor were standing neatly and solemnly, and a middle-aged man with an elegant and delicate face was ordering on the platform.

Seeing this, the man hurriedly shut up.

Lu Xiangsheng stood on the platform of the school with a gloomy face, waiting for Wang Zhong's arrival.

It was almost hour, and there were less than a thousand people in the barracks, and with the drums beating for two quarters, there were still many generals who had not arrived. This can't help but be angry, Taiyuan is an important town, Wang Zhong is so derelict in his duties, he really deserves to die.

Finally, Wang Zhong rushed to the school.

Glancing at Lu Xiangsheng, who was ordering, he hurriedly walked up, bowed and saluted, and said with a smile on his face: "I didn't know that the Governor had arrived, and I didn't greet him from afar, and I asked your Excellency to forgive me." ”

Without looking at him, Lu Xiangsheng continued to click.

The smile on Wang Zhong's face froze, he couldn't sit or stand, and he didn't dare to leave, so he had to stand awkwardly to the side.

A quarter of an hour later, it was finally finished.

Glancing at the generals in the audience, and then at the soldiers in Shanxi Town, Lu Xiangsheng said loudly: "Not long ago, the Tartars entered Gyeonggi from the Dushikou of my Xuanda, and burned and looted in the prefectures and counties around Gyeonggi for more than a month, causing hundreds of thousands of people in my Ming Dynasty to be killed and plundered, which is a shame for my Xuanda. In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening to Xuanda again, I want to check Xuanda's combat readiness. Taiyuan, Shanxi, is the first of the nine sides and the first stop of my inspection. ”

At this, he paused and looked at the expressions of the crowd.

I saw that some people were happy, some people were flustered, some people were sneering, and some people were hesitant.

He secretly kept the expressions of these people in mind, and then continued: "According to the rules, the army takes roll call every day and exercises every five days, but today, Shanxi Town has not done this, especially the general soldier Wang Zhong, who only arrived at the school at three o'clock in the hour, in order to strictly enforce military discipline, all the officers who come after two o'clock in the hour today will be beaten with fifty military sticks, Wang Zhong, as the chief soldier of Shanxi Town, took the lead in violating military discipline, and should be punished more severely and beat eighty military sticks. ，”

After the announcement, the soldiers of the Tianxiong Army dragged the officer who was about to be beaten to the ground and "crackled, crackled" and began to fight.

After the execution, he glanced at Wang Zhong, who was lying under the stage and was beaten to a bloody pulp, Lu Xiangsheng smiled coldly and said: "General Wang Bing's Shanxi Town is the first town in the nine borders, and according to the military register of the military department, there should be 42,000 soldiers, but there are only more than 10,000 soldiers in this school at most, I don't know where the remaining 30,000 soldiers have gone?" ”

Wang Zhong was beaten half to death, and he was lying on the ground with grinning teeth in pain, and after listening to Lu Xiangsheng's words, he couldn't help but be shocked, and said that this King Lu Yan seemed to be intent on finding fault.

"General Soldier Wang, this governor is asking you, where are the rest of the more than 30,000 soldiers?" Lu Xiangsheng said in a deep voice.

After hesitating for a while, Wang Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "Back to the Governor's words, there are still more than 5,000 people farming. ”

"How many acres of land need to be planted by more than 5,000 people, and who are they farming for?" Lu Xiangsheng asked coldly.

Wang Zhong smiled and said, "This ...... This field has more than 10,000 acres, and those soldiers are also farming for Shanxi Town, and the military field is related to the grain and grass problem of Shanxi Town, and they dare not be negligent in their duties. ”

"I heard that there are more than 10,000 acres of military land occupied by General Wang under the name of General Wang, but I don't know if this is true?" Lu Xiangsheng stepped forward step by step.

Hearing this, Wang Zhong's body trembled.

Peeking at Lu Xiangsheng's dark face, Wang Zhong knew that only by handing over those military fields, otherwise, I am afraid that he would not be able to get out of the military camp today.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly denied it: "Please don't believe it, my lord, I will never do that kind of thing, and I will never do that kind of thing, and the last general's salary is basically enough, what is the use of those military fields." ”

"So those fields in Liushugou in the east of Taiyuan City are military fields?" Lu Xiangsheng stared at Wang Zhong with a smile and asked, his eyes were cold, which made people tremble in their hearts.
