Chapter 148: Wu Sheng's Death
Wang Meng led the Flying Tiger Army through Liaodong to prepare to return to the Far East, but at this time, he received an order from heaven to postpone his return to the Far East and temporarily stationed in Liaodong. Tianci also ordered Wang Meng to recruit the Dongyi people of Liaodong to enlist in the army, but never to recruit a branch of the Dongyi tribe called the Tiela Tribe, and ordered Wang Meng to temporarily move this tribe to the place designated by the Heavenly Wolf Protectorate.
Wang Meng's orders from heaven have never been strictly implemented, and he and Zhou Xiaoxian, who came quickly, cooperated with each other, and it only took half a month to hold Liaodong in his hands. The tribe called Tiela was forcibly relocated by Wang Meng. This process will not be so smooth, but Zhou Xiaoxian found a few Dongyi tribes who had enmity with the Tiela tribe and asked them to help relocate the Tiela tribe. In this way, the Tiela Department died every day, **** wailed, and had to obey Wang Meng's order to move the clan to the place designated by the Heavenly Wolf Protectorate.
When the Liaodong Assassin asked why Wang Meng was so ruthless to this iron and wax department, Wang Meng shook his bald head and said: "Ben Hou's fiefdom is in Liaodong, and Ben Hou doesn't want to be taken off his head in his sleep." ”
Liaodong Thorn Shi nodded with a smile, to be honest, he was not interested in this iron wax department. Thorn Shi asked the elders of the Dongyi tribe about the Tiela tribe, and those clan elders shook their heads one by one and said that the Tiela tribe was not a member of the Dongyi tribe at all, and that they were reluctant to branch out.
The entire Dongyi people in Liaodong are extremely close to Dayan from top to bottom, and after hundreds of years of integration, the current Dongyi people are no different from the people of the Central Plains of Dayan in other respects except for speaking Dongyi language. But this iron wax department is different, if it sounds good, it is called unsociable, and if it is not good, it is called barbarism. The Tiela Department has enmity with almost all the Dongyi tribes, and it is also very arrogant to the Liaodong government, which makes the Liaodong Thorn Shi very annoyed, but he doesn't dare to do anything to the Tiela Ministry. Because all the strong men of the Tiela Department joined the sons of the army when they became adults, the sons of the army were the troops started by Emperor Suzheng, and they were famous, and no one dared to offend them easily. Now, with the order of Wang Meng, the candidate of Liaodong, the rampant Tielabu has finally been expelled from Liaodong. How could this not make the Liaodong Thorn History and the Dongyi tribes happy from the bottom of their hearts.
After Wang Meng drove the Tiela Department out of Liaodong, he called the leaders of the Dongyi tribes to his Hou Mansion. Anyway, who wants to be a leader with a mad dog, don't say it all day long, maybe one day you will be bitten, and now it's finally clean. After discussing it, each department took out a piece of land and gave it to Wang Meng.
Wang Meng laughed and said, "Wowhahaha, how good is this." There's something to discuss, hello, I'm good, everyone, that's really good, right? ”
"Master Hou is right. Master Hou this conscription, the young and strong people of my department can be picked at will, you must know that our ancestor is Yan Wushuang's personal guard commander General Trimu. Which conscription was not selected from our ministry first, I don't believe that Hou Ye went to ask Yan Shuai. ”
"Believe, how can you not believe it, Yan Shuai is my master, we are a family."
"Oh, Hou Ye turned out to be Yan Shuai's disciple, one day as a teacher and a father for life, then Hou Ye is no different from Yan Shuai's son. This is much stronger than that He He Sheng, who is a villain who climbs relatives indiscriminately. Master Hou, since you are a family, let's drink. ”
"Wow ha, drink it, come and drink. Whoever is not drunk today is not allowed to leave my Hou Mansion. Let me tell you, my eldest brother Niu Tianci is my master's most beloved disciple, there is no one, only one. You'll know when my eldest brother comes back, and your cousin's alcohol consumption is not a match for you. ”
"Wow, Niu Hou is also Yan Shuai's disciple. No, Master Hou, my kid must join the Flying Tiger Army, if you don't agree, I won't give you good soldiers. ”
"Oops, you're still threatening me, hahahaha."
In Wang Meng's Hou Mansion, the leaders of the Dongyi tribes in Liaodong Prefecture and the officials of the Assassin Mansion sat and drank together, and the atmosphere made Wang Meng feel indescribably comfortable. This is the feeling of family, which cannot be found in the Far East.
When the moon was in the sky, Wang Meng walked out of the bedroom and muttered to the moon.
"Cui'er, we have a big house and a lot of land, when will we get married? Cui'er, brother misses you. ”
After Wu Sheng, the leader of the puppet Qin bandits, was escorted back to Beijing, Emperor Suzheng sentenced Wu Sheng to death in an edict, and executed three days later at the noon gate of the imperial city.
On the day Wu Sheng was executed, the whole city of Fengtian was moved. The people flocked to the noon gate to watch the execution, and they wanted to see what kind of person this anti-thief king who made Dayan into a mess like a pot of porridge.
When the prisoner car carrying Wu Sheng went from the prison of Dali Temple to the Dharma field, there were crowds of people on both sides of the street, and the people rushed to watch the first thief in the history of Dayan.
Wu Sheng stood in the prisoner car, his hands and head handcuffed by a large flail. In order to demonstrate the might of the Great Yan Emperor and deter the rebels who were still trying to rebel, Emperor Suzheng authorized Wu Sheng to wear his already broken crown of the Great Qin Emperor. Along the way, the people were whispering, and they felt a little unbearable looking at Wu Sheng's miserable appearance.
Wu Sheng's face was calm, he wanted to say a few words to the people, but the numb in his mouth made him unable to say a word. When the prisoner car entered the neon building, many Qinglou women who were fellow villagers with Wu Sheng stood at the door to watch the excitement, and Mei Niang came to the general of the prisoner car with a bowl of wine.
"This general, can it be convenient, the concubine just wants to do the best of her fellow villagers and give him a bowl of wine to drink."
"Hehe, it turned out to be the neon landlord. Although this thief is a prisoner, he will also give him a bite of decapitated food to eat before the execution. Since the landlord has this kind heart, then the general will depend on you, but don't delay the time. Someone, take down the thief's hemp and let him drink a bowl of soul-breaking wine. ”
Mei Niang held the wine bowl in both hands and tiptoed to Wu Sheng's mouth, Wu Sheng gulped down, and then let out a long breath and said, "Good wine." I have heard the name of the neon building for a long time, but I didn't have the opportunity to find out. Today, Wu Sheng was grateful to be able to get a gift from the landlord. This friendship Wu Sheng recorded, if there is an afterlife, Wu Sheng will definitely tie the grass ring to repay the gift of the landlord. ”
"Listening to Mr.'s words, it's like reading a book, but why did he turn his back on the etiquette and make a mess, and now the knife and axe are added, and his life is short, doesn't Mr. regret it?"
"Hahaha. I think I, Wu Sheng, as a seven-foot man, was born between heaven and earth, and should stand up to the sky, follow the way of heaven, and conform to the will of the people. However, the monarch has no way, regards the people as lackeys, and takes the community as a plaything. If I don't turn against maggots, what's the difference between me? The so-called justice is free in the hearts of the people, and the merits and demerits are free in the eyes of the people of the world. If he is a virtuous monarch today, Wu Sheng's rebellion is naturally intolerable to the world. But at the beginning of Wu Sheng's army, the people were excited, eating pot pulp, yes yes? The ancients said: It is in man to make things happen. Wu Sheng is not a person favored by God, so let's be a bell-ringer. Although Wu Sheng died, there were successors. The landlord, the fathers, Wu Sheng is also going. ”
Mei Niang bowed down, and the prisoner car gradually moved away in Wu Sheng's laughter. The people on the street were silent, and it was unknown how many of Wu Sheng's words fell in people's hearts.
Three soul-chasing cannons rang out in front of the noon gate, and the prison officer shouted: "The time has come, the rebel Wu Sheng will verify his identity and be executed." ”
Ling Chi is commonly referred to as "a thousand cuts", which is the most cruel criminal law in ancient times. With the quick knife of the executioner, pieces of flesh and blood on Wu Sheng's body fell to the ground, and Wu Shengqiang endured the pain without saying a word. When Wu Sheng could no longer find a piece of good meat on his body, the supervisor waved his hand to stop the executioner.
"Rebel Wu Sheng, if you repent now, asking Your Majesty for forgiveness can give you a good time. Otherwise, you won't be able to take your last breath until your flesh and blood are all over and your bones are white. Speak, lest you sin. ”
The audience was silent outside the noon gate, and Wu Sheng shouted with his last strength.
"Life is a hero, death is also a ghost. Long Yansi, your end is not far away, Wu Sheng is waiting for you. ”
After saying this, Wu Sheng's teeth snapped together, and he bit his tongue and died.
"Life is a hero, death is also a ghost. This Wu Shengzhi can be regarded as a generation of heroes, but it's a pity. ”
Niu Tianci sat in the handsome tent and said this sentence in a low voice, and Ouyang Xiu on the side continued: "Does the handsome think Wu Sheng is a pity? Xiao Xiu doesn't think so. With great ability comes great responsibility. Wu Sheng's talent is not good, he is short-sighted, and he only relies on the courage of a moment of courage and blood, and it is already the favor of God to become a generation of anti-kings. Didn't the big marshal have a trace of understanding when he saw what Wu Sheng did? ”
"Hehe, it's easier said than done. At the beginning of Wu Sheng's army, it can be said that he took advantage of the time, place, and people, if there is a master to guide him, it is unknown what the future will be. Ben Shuai thought that Wu Sheng was just making wedding clothes for others and was used by others. But although Wu Sheng died, his question about the prince and general Xiangning was deafening, and as soon as this sentence came out, the hearts of the people of Dayan were already in turmoil. I don't know if my second brother has the ability to clean up this broken mountain and river. ”
"The prince doesn't, the lord you have. Why did Wu Sheng pretend to be the heir of the Yan family, doesn't the lord understand? ”
"Hehehe, Xiaoxiu."
"Humble duty."
"How much board do you owe Ben Shuai?"
"This~~~, please allow Xiao Xiu to add ten more boards."
"Exactly."
Niu Tianci stood up and looked at Ouyang Xiu, who was struggling to write in the account book, and couldn't help but smile knowingly. He walked out of the tent and saw that under the bright sun, the recruits of the Flying Tiger Legion were sweating and practicing various killing skills under the guidance of veterans.
Sima Changfeng's iron arm army was practicing the formation, the neat phalanx, rumbling footsteps, and the tower shield more than one person high in front of the phalanx was like a wall and then advanced forward. The heavily armored saber team wielded a huge snow-bright swordsman, roaring with rage every time they took a step.
The battle flags fluttered and shouted to the sky on the entire exercise ground, and the flying tigers with wings on the flying tiger flags fluttering in the wind radiated dazzling golden light under the reflection of the sun.
Looking at everything in front of him, Niu Tianci flashed his arms as if he wanted to take the army into his arms.
"This is my army, my brother, this is my time. Every step of the way was accompanied by blood, but I don't regret it, because I have seen victory and hope. All this was bought by me and my brothers with blood, and I will never let anyone take him from my hands, never! ”
Ouyang Xiu looked up at Niu Tianci who was talking to himself, and unconsciously knelt behind Tianci. (To be continued.) )
