Chapter 43: The Transformation of Good and Evil
readx;
After the main force of Han Sui's strange soldiers was annihilated, the battle situation in the northwest completely lost its suspense, and the last question was when Han Sui would die. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info//Fast update//
Gan Ning ordered four enemy generals to be taken prisoner to Chang'an, and then led the army back to Wuwei.
Outside Wuwei City, just before Gan Ning led his army back, Pang De happened to arrive.
There were hundreds of soldiers guarding the camp outside Wuwei, and Pang De came alone, and when he saw Gan Ning's triumphant troops, he rode up to meet him.
"The last general has seen the Dadu Governor, and he came to the Dadu Governor's account to listen to the orders on the orders of the lord, and after the war in the northwest is over, the last general will stay under General Ma."
Gan Ning smiled gently: "Ling Ming doesn't have to be polite in front of me, let's go back to the camp first." ”
After finishing speaking, Gan Ning looked back at Ma Chao thoughtfully.
After winning the battle, Ma Chao was refreshed, and at this time, his expression was a little stunned.
Pound abandoned him, and now the two are working together again, but Guo Jia instead assigned Pound to his command.
It seems to be an embarrassing situation, but Ma Chao has no guilt in Pang De's heart, and after the look of surprise flashed, Ma Chao came to Pang De's side with a hearty smile, and said with a smile: "Ling Ming, it seems that you and I have not finished our fate." ”
Pound responded with a light smile: "I can't ask for it." ”
The army returned to the camp, Gan Ning counted the days, the grain and grass should be delivered tomorrow, and it was confirmed by Pang De himself, so he ordered to reward the three armies, after all, it was a big victory, after this battle, Wuwei County can already announce the change of ownership, and then take a temporary rest, and then continue to pursue Han Sui to the northwest until he is destroyed, at least. It is also necessary to insert the four counties of Hexi into the Taiping Army.
Several generals followed Gan Ning to sit in the tent one by one, the atmosphere was very good, and everyone had the joy of victory on their faces, but Gan Ning had just sat down and had not smoothed the corners of his clothes with his hands, and outside the tent there was a captain he had assigned to stay behind when he was out on the expedition to come in and report the situation in the past few days.
"When the Governor of the Metropolitan set out on the expedition, the people in Wuwei City waited for an opportunity to attack every day. Nearly 100 of our soldiers were killed or wounded, and last night there were even 1,000 young men in the city who gathered together to steal food from the camp outside the city. If it hadn't been discovered early, I'm afraid the consequences would have been unimaginable. ”
After hearing the news, not only Gan Ning's face was gloomy, but the other generals also frowned and looked displeased.
When they were in a good mood, they were poured cold water on their heads.
Ma Chao's current mood suddenly brightened. didn't stare at Han Sui and ignore the others, after thinking about it, he clenched his fists and said to Gan Ning: "Dadu Governor, the people of the northwest are fierce and unruly, and they are difficult to raise. It is difficult to govern by religion alone, and in my opinion, those who do not accept it will be severely punished. Troublemakers will be severely punished, and those who kill will naturally pay for their lives, and if they are misleading the public, they will be killed. ”
Others did not express their position, but Meng Da nodded in agreement.
Gan Ning, Zhang Liao, and Wu Yi looked pensive.
It is a military rule that there is no violation with Minqiu, but the march fights and attacks the city and plunders the land. Especially when you break into the territory of the enemy army, you want to really be safe with the people. It's difficult, but as long as the Taiping army doesn't take the initiative to show a posture of aggression and marauders. Then there are occasional incidents that affect the pond fish, and the generals in the army will generally open the net.
Guo Jia entered Yizhou, fought Guanzhong, Pingnanban, and also attacked Jingzhou during the period, it was difficult for him to avoid conflicts with the people when he personally led the army, but these things were separate and small individual events, and there were no signs of forming a scale and affecting the overall situation, but the situation in Wuwei today is a little tricky.
It's easy to wield a butcher's knife, and Gan Ning is by no means a ruthless person, but his killing ultimately affects Guo Jia's reputation.
Guo Jia is in Yizhou, and the people of Guanzhong are benevolent in their reputation, if Gan Ning kills in Wuwei, the blood in this city will be directly poured on Guo Jia's body.
Dilemma and hesitation.
Just as Gan Ning was thinking of a compromise solution, Pang De got up and left the table to come to Gan Ning, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Gan Ning.
"Metropolitan Governor, this is the letter that Lord Xu instructed me to hand over to the Metropolitan Governor before I came to Wuwei from Jincheng."
Pound delivered the letter to Ganning and sat back.
Gan Ning took it apart and looked at it, and his expression became more solemn.
This letter is written by Xu Shu himself, but inside is Guo Jia's military order.
Crusade against Han Sui, regardless of the Han people or Qiang, Hu Yidi, those who resist and do not obey, Yi three tribes!
This order allowed Gan Ning to think about how to deal with Wuwei's situation without a headache, but his heart was a little uneasy.
He has been friends with Guo Jia for nearly 20 years, and he was shocked in the face of this military order.
Guo Jia seems to have suddenly shifted from an extreme of good to an extreme of evil.
What is the most ruthless punishment?
Yi three clans!
"Wu Yi, Meng Da, mobilize 10,000 soldiers and follow me into the city."
Gan Ning stood up with a solemn face and casually handed the letter to Zhang Liao, who was sitting under him.
Wu Yi Mengda didn't know what was written in the letter, but he also guessed that the letter had an unusual order, and immediately got up and walked out of the tent to mobilize troops and horses.
After reading this letter, Zhang Liao's reaction was the same as Gan Ning's, with a solemn expression and hidden worry.
Walking out of the tent, Gan Ning walked towards Wuwei City, and then asked people to bring the civil affairs household registration book in the Wuwei Mansion, and called some officials in Wuwei City who had originally worked for Han Sui and had now surrendered, and handed over the household registration book to them. ”
A few middle-aged people followed Gan Ning and walked bowed down, their heads were covered with cold sweat, and they didn't know what Gan Ning was doing at all, investigating the population?
Wu Wei has just tens of thousands of people, what is there to investigate?
Or is there a felony in this city?
Anyway, they couldn't guess that for the sake of their own lives and future prospects, they had to do what Gan Ning had to do.
After the mobilization of 10,000 soldiers and horses, Wu Yi, Meng Damachao, Zhang Liao, Pang De, and five generals followed behind Gan Ning, and the army opened the way into Wuwei.
Before the capture of Wuwei, there were military camps inside and outside the city, but Gan Ning wanted to fight the Xiliang army led by Cheng Gongying, and the military camp in Wuwei City was withdrawn, and the people in the city wanted to escape, so let them escape, after all, the more northwest is more bitter cold, and to the southeast, it is Guo Jia's territory, and there is no difference between fleeing and not escaping.
The retreat of the Taiping army from Wuwei to the outside of the city only fueled the revolt of the people in the city.
Before, they only dared to sneak up on the patrols inside the Taiping Army's city, but now, they actually dared to gather crowds to attack the military camp outside the city, intending to steal food, which was intolerable no matter which warlord it was.
When Gan Ning and several people returned to the camp, they took off their armor and now entered the city only wearing ordinary robes, and the soldiers opened the way on both sides of the road, and Gan Ning led the crowd into the city.
The people in the city looked at Gan Ning and the others from afar on both sides of the road, their expressions and colors were different, but they all held resentful eyes towards Gan Ning and the others very tacitly.
Gan Ning didn't understand, where did their hatred come from?
Is it a natural disaster or **, or a yearning for freedom and unwilling to be ruled?
A group of people who were walking towards the government office in the city suddenly changed on both sides of the road.
There was a group of young men who were holding their arms and watching Gan Ning walk coldly, but when Gan Ning was close in front of them, several people rushed up and pushed the Taiping army on the side of the road away, showing a road, and behind them, a young man rushed up with a cauldron with hot smoke.
Gan Ning's footsteps stopped, his expression remained unchanged, and when he was about to draw a knife, several guards rushed up behind him, drawing knives to protect him behind him, and the young man with a pot saw this scene, he did not hesitate, gritted his teeth with a hideous face, and directly threw the pot full of boiling oil in his hand to Gan Ning's side.
Sting, stinging, stinging
Not a single drop of the hot oil splashed on Gan Ning's body, but some of the soldiers who loyally guarded him covered their faces and fell to the ground screaming.
Bang bang
The iron pot rolled on the ground a few times, and the sound stopped.
There was a soldier in the back who wanted to arrest the young man who could already be characterized by assassination, but he didn't expect that the man threw the pot at Gan Ning and turned around and fled.
The soldiers of the Taiping Army wanted to chase after them, but they were blocked by a mountain of young people.
The people around who saw this scene raised their arms and shouted with joy.
Gan Ning looked around, the unarmed people were hating him at the same time, and at the same time they were shouting wantonly, even if they didn't see his embarrassed side, at least they were ugly.
The soldiers who were blocked by the people held the knife and hesitated for a long time, at this time, Gan Ning walked to the side of the soldiers, reached out and took the knife from one person's hand in his own hand.
One step in front of him, the three young men in Wuwei City looked at Gan Ning with fearless faces, they had covered the man before, and hindered the pursuit, but they had no intention of escaping at all.
"Oh, you're guts."
Gan Ning glanced away and sneered.
Without warning, Gan Ning turned his face to face those people, and waved his knife and fell together!
An arm flew up from the air!
The movement did not stop, Gan Ning moved a small step to the left, repeating the previous action, only in the blink of an eye, five arms fell to the ground, blood spilled on the spot.
The five young men screamed and rolled on the ground with their shoulders blurred with flesh and blood exposed.
At this moment, there was a sudden silence, only screams.
Zhang Liao and the others watched expressionlessly from the side.
The soldiers of the Taiping Army who were splashed with boiling oil on their faces were helped up, he had only screamed at the beginning, and now he was gritting his teeth and enduring, his face was ruined, and his flesh and blood were blurred and shocking.
Gan Ning grabbed the screaming young man on the ground with an indifferent face, as if he could remove his scalp, and threw him in front of the disfigured Taiping soldiers.
"Kowtow, kowtow until you die!"
Gan Ning's tone was indifferent, as if he didn't have any hatred.
The young man held his bleeding shoulder, raised his head and spat at Gan Ning.
"Dreaming!"
Gan Ning was not angry, and hooked his fingers to the civil affairs official who was already trembling and even incontinent.
Several middle-aged people holding the household registration book came to Gan Ning with weak legs and waited for dispatch.
"Find out for me his family, father's family, mother's family, wife's family, as long as people are in Wuwei, find out for me, and kill one if you catch one.".
