Chapter 226: The Gratitude of the Outcasts

Outside Lingqiu County, Huang Degong has prepared a sufficient amount of hot water, wine and meat, just waiting for Wang Teng's triumph.

The news of the Guangling Army's great victory over the Liukou and the beheading of nearly 1,000 people has spread throughout the camp camps, and the homeless people who have left their homes are greatly excited after hearing it.

Zhang Nan, the leader of the bandits, was extremely vicious, did no bad things, and the homeless people abandoned their homes and hospitals, although there were natural disasters, however, Zhang Nan and others were also an important factor.

Now, Wang Teng killed Zhang Nan and defeated the rogue, which can be described as very happy.

Even without Huang Degong's instructions, the displaced people were willing to give everything they had to repay Wang Teng.

Having lived in Ulju for more than a month, the displaced people of Taiyuan Province have become accustomed to the days of sunrise and sunset.

Compared with the previous life, although the life in the camp is not very free, there is no shortage of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and there are no cunning officials who exploit them at all levels.

Filling your stomach is the greatest luxury for the displaced people.

All of this is the credit of Wang Teng!

When the Guangling army returned, the displaced people who had lifted the ban spontaneously gathered on both sides of the official road, just to thank Wang Teng.

Far away, the huge banner of "king" will be waved in the wind.

The leaders of the camp led by example and took the lead in knocking to the ground, and then, the homeless people on both sides followed suit and knelt down at the first time.

Jiang Bingzhi, who went out of the city to greet him, his eyelids jumped, and he didn't say much.

The homeless people in Taiyuan Mansion were proposed by Wang Teng to take them in, and it is reasonable for the people to be grateful to him, but the homeless people kneeling down to welcome him with such fanfare, I am afraid that it may not be a good thing for Wang Teng.

Jiang Bingzhi is well versed in the way of officialdom, he knows that there are countless officials in the court, although Wang Teng's five-grade garrison is not worth the officials' shot, but if someone takes the opportunity to slander, it is also unnecessary trouble for Wang Teng.

At this time, it is not appropriate to step forward to remind you, you can only see how Wang Teng responds.

Wang Teng marched in front of the military formation, with Zhou Yuji on the left and an interpreter from Chahar on the right.

On the day of the expedition, the Guangling army was only more than a thousand people, and even if the baggage battalion was counted, there were not many people, however, there were thousands of people in this turn.

The army was victorious, and the gains were quite rich, and the army was full of spirit, even Wang Teng was a little complacent.

Sometimes, Wang Teng couldn't help but think that it would be nice if Jiannu was so easy to deal with.

Suddenly, a rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded, but it was the soldiers who took the lead and rode back, "Report, General Wang, the two sides of the official road ahead are full of homeless people."

Refugee?

It's six miles away from the county seat, how did the displaced people get here?

Wang Teng was a little puzzled, "Have you ever seen the people of the government?" ”

The soldier bowed slightly, "Huang Qianhu told me that the homeless people outside the city are spontaneously organized, and they are grateful for the kindness of the general, so they go out to welcome them."

Wang Teng has already made too many contributions, and he doesn't want to provoke right and wrong, so he frowned at the moment and thought about how to deal with it.

In fact, no matter whether the displaced people sincerely bow down or not, Wang Teng can't greet them in a big way.

The Son of Heaven is the Lord of all peoples, and apart from him, who can stand the worship of all peoples?

What to do?

It's not a matter to avoid it, Wang Teng pondered and meditated, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he had an idea, "Where is Tong Zheng?" ”

Tong was watching the prisoners in the rear, and when he heard Wang Teng summoning him to hurry forward, "I don't know what the adults ordered?" ”

"I still have to make you go hard, it is very inappropriate for these captives to be escorted back to Lingqiu, you send them to the iron factory and hand them over to Ma Wu for disposal"

After the Tie clan was conferred, Wang Teng had an iron factory in Lingqiu and Guangling, among them, the iron factory in Lingqiu was the largest, and the personnel gap was not small.

Although the rogues are hateful, they are not guilty of death, and letting them work as coolies can be regarded as making the best use of things, and Tong has always had no objection to this.

Not long after, Tong and Wang Teng parted ways, "Where is Huang Hu?" ”

Approaching the county seat, Huang Hu also came to the momentum, "The next official is here!" ”

Wang Teng said: "I have a big matter to entrust to you, are you willing to share my worries?" ”

Huang Hu shook his head repeatedly, "My lord said it directly, how could I, Huang Hu, have frowned for half a minute."

Wang Teng breathed a sigh of relief, "Here's the thing, the right sentry came to report that the homeless people in the camp came out to welcome six miles, and now they are kneeling on both sides of the official road."

Huang Hu's eyes widened, "This is a good thing, what is there to worry about?" ”

Wang Teng shook his head, "I'm just a five-rank guard, how can I be worthy of the gift of the homeless?" ”

Huang Hu looked at Wang Teng's expression, and immediately realized, "What do you mean?" ”

"Didn't the army lose more than 100 sergeants? Let them get ahead of the curve."

How can a dead man go?

Huang Hu was about to ask a question, but the next moment he came to his senses, "Your Excellency is wise."

Confirming that Huang Hu had comprehended his intentions, Wang Teng said word by word: "Go, pass the order, let the fallen soldiers take the first step!" Only they are qualified to receive the great gifts of the people! ”

Huang Hu was convinced.

Originally, when he heard the news that the people knelt down to greet him, Huang Hu only felt honored, and the more his own guards were loved, the more it showed that his vision was correct, but now Wang Teng refused to accept it, but he showed superb means.

No wonder Wang Teng fought and won successes, and he talked and laughed freely in front of Lu Xiangsheng, this city alone is not something that idlers can figure out.

Not long after, the corpses of more than 100 Guangling soldiers were carried by chariots and horses, and they marched at the forefront of the military array.

Wang Teng followed behind the carriage and horses, without sorrow or joy.

The displaced people who knocked on the ground thought that it would be Wang Teng who would take the lead, but who would have thought that it would be a corpse wrapped in white cloth.

What's going on?

The homeless people looked at each other and swallowed the words that came to their mouths.

The words of praise are reserved for Wang Teng, what is the matter with telling the dead?

The carriage that carried the corpses "creaked" slowly forward, and after that, the Guangling soldiers did not say a word.

The displaced people were infected by the atmosphere and gradually felt a trace of unspeakable tragedy.

If it is said that kneeling to welcome Wang Teng is for gratitude, then kowtowing to the soldiers who died on the battlefield is a kind of mentality that the dead are great.

If it weren't for these soldiers who sacrificed their lives and forgot to die, the rogues would have been killed a long time ago, and at that time, the homeless people would have borne the brunt.

These are the benefactors of the Taiyuan displaced people, bow to them, the displaced people have no guilt, "The people of Taiyuan thank you!" ”

The carriage and horses have passed, Wang Teng held his hands weakly, "Everyone, please get up, the Liukou has been defeated by me, everyone can work with peace of mind."

"Thank you for your kindness!"

"It's an internal matter, why worry about it!"

A few miles away, Jiang Bingzhi didn't expect Wang Teng to use such superb means, that is, to resolve the crisis, and to buy the hearts of the army and the people, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone!

Sometimes, Jiang Bingzhi can't help but wonder, what is Wang Teng's brain made of?

Why are there so many whimsical ideas? (To be continued.) )
