"The lord is humble, speaking of which, the reason why the last general can judge so quickly is also because he did this when he was a thief before, so he is not a stranger, otherwise, how can the last general be as good as the lord? As for why the war horse retreated...... Since it is not from Zhang Yang, the thief is also within the state. The lord should have heard that in order to guard against Zhang Yan, Zhang Yang set up a lot of checkpoints in the territory, and there were even beacon fire alarms, and it was really difficult to enter Taiyuan silently and commit such a big robbery. Now, I have never heard of any sentry post, and five hundred people can be reduced to zero or avoid the sight of the sentry post, but three hundred war horses are difficult! War horses are scarce things, and it is not difficult to introduce, but if you want to quietly bring them out of the state, I am afraid it is impossible, unless, all the soldiers at the sentry post are killed, otherwise, once a war horse appears, the news will come early. And the other princes, with Huguan and Keiguan as obstacles, even if they want to make people enter the state, it is very difficult. ”

"In this way, this batch of war horses, when it was still in the territory of Bingzhou, and because the case happened only one day, and the target of three hundred war horses is too big, but now no one has found any traces, think about it, the base camp of this gang of thieves should be in Jinyang."

"And Liu Biao's secret purchase of war horses is a secret, outsiders should not know, at most they inadvertently learned about it, and acted in a hurry, so they expected that the place where this gang of thieves was based should be under Jinyang City, such as Guchengying, North and South Wayao, Luocheng, Dongchengjiao and other counties." After saying so much in one breath, Pei Yuanshao also felt unbearably thirsty, so Gu Zi grabbed the cup on the side, whether it was water or wine. Knock Knock poured a hard breath.

Although Pei Yuanshao was born in a big family, he was a distant branch, so naturally there were not too many rules. In addition, he has devoted himself to the yellow scarf, and has been a thief for many years, and he has been somewhat contaminated with a bit of gangsterism, and he is very bold when he does things...... Well, there's a sense of straightforwardness and roughness, though. Han Fei didn't hate this kind of aura, and he didn't restrain anything.

"Supposedly, a small county seat. With the strength of the whole county, it is only four or five hundred soldiers at most, and these soldiers. Catch thieves and catch thieves. How can you be good at the methods in this army, I'm afraid it is not the work of these counties. Moreover, the magistrates of these counties have heard of it somewhat, and they can do it to bully some people, but in the face of elite soldiers, they can do such a big thing...... Hehe, it's not that I underestimate them. They don't really have the guts. Deeply feeling that Pei Yuanshao's analysis was reasonable, Han Fei couldn't help nodding.

"But. There is no such a large group of thieves in Jinyang, and now, Pei Liang is in charge, Fang De is in charge of the army, and the two still have certain means to cooperate, and some remnants are still afraid to avoid them, so how can they commit crimes against the wind? As a native of Bingzhou and a thief, Pei Yuanshao has a certain understanding of the turmoil and even the situation, at this time, although he feels that his analysis is reasonable, he can't help but doubt himself.

"Could it be that ......" Frustrated Hu seemed to think of something, his face full of shock and disbelief, "Could it be the Wang family's doing?" This...... How is this possible? I have heard for a long time that Wang Situ is a loyal and patriotic man, and he has the style of an elder, so the Wang family will not do such a thing, right? ”

"The trend of profit, everything is unpredictable, after all, there are no thieves in Jinyang, except for Zhang Yangjun, only the Wang family is the most powerful, and relatively, the suspicion is also the greatest. As for whether it was done by the Wang family, you will know after a try! Han Fei was already eight points sure in his heart, and most of the robbery of the war horse was done by Liu Bei.

Wang Yun has always wanted to bring down Dong Zhuo, and if he wants Dong Zhuo to fall, he can't rely on his mouth, only his fists are hard enough and there is power in his hands. Being in Chang'an, under Dong Zhuo's surveillance, Wang Yun naturally couldn't move, and he was powerless if he had the heart. But it is different in Bingzhou, in Taiyuan, the Wang family is a big family, plus Wang Yunai is a big Han Situ, with enough influence, that is, Zhang Yang, in Taiyuan, he also wants to make friends with the Wang family, and he does not dare to offend.

In this way, it would be easy to secretly gather forces and use the financial resources and influence of the Wang family.

"How are you going to try it?" Pei Yuanshao nodded, just now, he also had suspicions about the Wang family, but he was not sure, and when he heard Han Fei say this, he asked.

"Knock on the mountain and shake the tiger!"

…

Qi County is located in the central part of Shanxi Province, at the northern foot of Taiyue Mountain, in the south of Taiyuan Basin, and on the east bank of the Fen River. It is adjacent to Taigu County in the east, Pingyao County in the west, Wuxiang County in the south, Qingxu County in the north, Yushe County in the southeast, and Wenshui County across the river in the northwest. Qi County was called "Zhaoyu" in ancient times, and was named after "Zhaoyu Qi Zexu".

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the Qi land belonged to the Jin Dynasty, and the Qi land at that time included almost the entire Pingchuan in the middle of the Jin Dynasty. In 556 B.C., the Duke of Jin Ping gave the land of Qi to the doctor Ji Xi as a food town. Ji Xi took the land as his surname and changed his surname to Qi, that is, the famous Qi Huangyang in history who "does not avoid revenge on the outside, and does not avoid relatives on the inside". His city was in Xiaguxian Village, an ancient county town in present-day Qi County. In 514 BC, Qi Xi's grandson Qi Ying was killed for some reason, and the food was confiscated. Jin divides the fields of Qi Xi into Wu, Qi and Pingling. Seven parts, such as stalk yang, smeared water, horse head, and bowl. The situation of Qi County was basically determined from that time.

During the Warring States Period, Qi belonged to the Zhao State. In the Qin Dynasty, Qi belonged to Taiyuan County. At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, Qi County was placed. Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, changed Qi to show, and later restored Qi County.

Since Qi Huangyang, the Warring States, Qin, and Han Dynasty, the most famous person in Qi County is Wang Yun.

The Wang family is a famous family in Shanxi, and has held important official positions in the prefecture and county for generations, and has great influence and prestige in the local area. Wang Yun is talented, intelligent, and intelligent, and is deeply loved and appreciated by his seniors. Under their influence and influence, Wang Yun was extraordinarily energetic since he was a child, and he was determined to not only inherit and carry forward the traditions of his father's generation when he grew up, but also worry about the country and benefit the society of the Eastern Han Dynasty. In order to achieve this ambition and goal, Wang Yun always pays attention to the cultivation of his own quality. Although he was born into a wealthy family, he was not obsessed with luxurious life and comfortable enjoyment, but made full use of the privileged environment of his family to read poetry and books. When he was a teenager, Wang Yun had become a talented man who was full of wealth and wealth, and scholars from near and far were impressed by him. In addition to studying articles and reading classics, Wang Yun also insisted on practicing martial arts to strengthen his body. He admired the majesty and bearing of Wei Qing and Huo Quai, and also admired their spirit of defending the country to the death. Serious and unremitting civil and martial arts training has been less than a few years. Wang Yun became an all-rounder who was proficient in Wen Taowu and Wu strategy.

Because he was born into an upper-class scholar family, in addition to practicing literature and martial arts on weekdays, Wang Yun also often followed his parents in and out of officialdom. Make friends with many famous people. Moreover, Wang Yun is more willing to contact with the lower class people, because in this way, he can get closer to life, experience life, and accumulate rich experience. Suddenly, the young Wang Yun not only stood out among his peers, but also became famous in Shanxi. At the age of 19. Wang Yun was elected as a county official. Soon after taking office, he encountered an extremely complicated and thorny matter: there was a small yellow gate named Zhao Jin in the Jinyang area of Shanxi, relying on his master to be a eunuch in power in the imperial court. He ran rampant in the local area and did whatever he wanted. The people were afraid of Zhao Jin's obscenity, and dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. When Wang Yun, who was not afraid of tigers as a newborn calf, learned of this, he angrily said to his subordinates: "The prince has broken the law. The same sin as the common people. Such a crime, corruption and perversion of the law, not to mention killing! He immediately ordered the arrest of Zhao Jin, and immediately released him to Dongshi and beheaded him for public display to comfort the people. When the people of Jinyang saw that the scourge they hated had been eliminated, they applauded one by one, and they also went to Wang Yun's official office one after another. Thanks to Wang Yun and praised him for being the master of the people. A good parent who is not afraid of rape. Wang Yun withstood the test of the world for the first time, and won the praise and support of everyone, and he was sincerely happy, and strengthened his confidence in being an impartial official.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, due to the corruption of the imperial court, the phenomenon of the central and local governments buying officials and lords was very serious. In particular, the power-for-money trading of local bureaucrats is extremely common. There is a scoundrel named Lu Fo among the fellow villagers in the same county as Wang Yun, who has been pampered since he was a child, has neither knowledge nor virtue, and he relies on the money in his family to bribe Taishou Wang Qiu, asking Wang Qiu to give him an official position. Wang Qiu, who was obsessed with money, was a faint official who saw money, and after accepting a bribe from Lu Buddha, he gave him a position as a supplement. Wang Yun was very resentful of this dirty deal, exposed Lu Fo's ugly deeds in public, and argued with Wang Qiu, accusing him of corruption and favoritism. Wang Qiu was annoyed and angry, and used the power in his hand to immediately arrest Wang Yun and put him in prison, ready to kill him at any time. Deng Sheng had heard of Wang Yun's deeds for a long time and admired his intelligence and character. When he learned that Wang Qiu was going to kill Wang Yun, he immediately rode a fast horse and went to the Taishou Yamen, bailed Wang Yun, and asked him to be a driver in his own house. Wang Yun was very grateful to Deng Sheng for saving his life, and at the same time was moved by Deng Sheng's righteous behavior, so he served Deng Sheng wholeheartedly, worked diligently, and worked hard, and Deng Sheng was deeply satisfied. Under Deng Sheng's promotion and publicity, Wang Yun's reputation became bigger and bigger, laying the foundation for him to enter the imperial court as an official in the future.

Wang Yun not only won the appreciation and admiration of the state and county officials and the local people, but also attracted the attention of the imperial court. In view of his talent and performance, Wang Yun was soon recruited by the three princes of the imperial court at the same time, and Situ Gaodi was recruited as the imperial historian. The move from a local prefecture to the central court was a major turning point in Wang Yun's life path, and it also provided a broad political stage for him to realize his political ambition of serving the country loyally.

In 184 A.D. (the first year of Zhongping), that is, not long after Wang Yunzheng served the imperial history, a huge peasant uprising of the Yellow Turban Army broke out all over the country. In order to quickly suppress the uprising, the Eastern Han government specially selected Wang Yun as the assassin of Yuzhou, and recruited Shang Shuang, Kong Rong and other famous people to serve as Wang Yun's engagement, and led a heavy army to defeat the Yellow Turban Army. Wang Yun led his troops to fight for the first time, which fully demonstrated his extraordinary literary and martial arts strategy. In advance, Wang Yun extensively solicited the opinions of ordinary officers and soldiers and devised a thorough combat plan. During the battle, Wang Yun personally put on the battle, showed his skills, and completely defeated the Yellow Turban Army in the area of Yuzhou. After that, Wang Yun and Huang Fu Song, the general of the left middle lang, and Zhu Jun, the general of the right middle lang, jointly surrendered hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban rebels. In the process of surrendering, the careful Wang Yun searched the peasant army for a letter written by a guest who was always serving Zhang Rang, which involved some content related to the Yellow Turban Army. Zhang Rang was the great eunuch in power in the current dynasty, with great power and great favor by the emperor. Wang Yun didn't care about the stakes, he suspected that Zhang Rang was having an affair with the Yellow Turban Army, so he further investigated, exposed all the specific details, and wrote it as a song to play the emperor. Emperor Ling of Han was shocked and immediately summoned Zhang Rang into the palace, angrily accusing Zhang Rang and asking him to explain the actual situation. Zhang Rang has always been self-righteous and pointing fingers in the court, and he didn't expect anyone to dare to expose him in front of the emperor, so he was half frightened to death after seeing Wang Yun's performance, and hurriedly kowtowed to apologize. But Zhang Rang is such a cunning and slick character, when he answered the emperor, not only did he not admit his crime, but said that Wang Yun was jealous and framed him, saying that he was against His Majesty. How loyal he was to the court, without the slightest intention of fornicating with the Yellow Turban Army and betraying the court. Emperor Ling was originally deliberately biased in favor of Zhang Rang, and was confused by Zhang Rang's rhetoric. Thinking that he was innocent, he did not pursue it anymore.

After Zhang Rang was exonerated from the crime, he had a grudge against Wang Yun and wanted to wait for an opportunity to retaliate against Wang Yun. The following year, Zhang Rang finally found an excuse to arrest Wang Yun and put him in prison. Soon, it was just in time for the imperial court amnesty. Wang Yun was acquitted and released, and Shi was reinstated. However, Zhang Rang, who was bound to repay him, did not stop there. Within ten days, he convicted Wang Yun on another "trumped-up" charge, and Wang Yun was imprisoned again.

Situ Yang Ci knew Wang Yun's personality and character, and knew that Zhang Rang deliberately wanted to put Wang Yun to death. In order to exonerate Wang Yun. To save him from pain and humiliation, Yang Ci sent his subordinates to advise Wang Yun: "You offended the eunuch Zhang Rang because of something, and you were imprisoned twice in a month, so it is obvious that he intended to get along with you." Now you are more than lucky, and your life is difficult to protect. In order to achieve your ambitions, why don't you give in and endure first? The big husband can bend and stretch. If you are only so strong, I'm afraid he won't let you go. Think about it! Wang Yun's subordinates were also deeply worried about Wang Yun's re-imprisonment, and they tried to rescue Wang Yun. When an aggressive subordinate went to visit Wang Yun in prison, he wept bitterly, persuaded Wang Yun to admit his mistake to Zhang Rang and make amends, and begged him to open the net, but Wang Yun angrily refused. The subordinate found a glass of wine and said angrily to Wang Yun: "Since you protect yourself like this, you might as well drink this cup of poisonous wine, why should you still be tortured by others in prison?" However, to the surprise of his subordinates, Wang Yun snatched the wine glass and said sharply: "I am a subject of the dignified Son of Heaven, and the king has given me a sin, I should accept the punishment and behead the public on the street according to the king's law, and everyone in the world should take me as a warning, no longer violate the law, and maintain social stability. You don't need to persuade me anymore, I've made up my mind! With that, he poured the wine on the ground, approached the prisoner's car, and was put back in prison. Since Wang Yun has not apologized to Zhang Rang and admitted his mistakes, Zhang Rang further exaggerated the circumstances of his so-called crime.

Soon, Wang Yun's case was arraigned, and Wang Yun's subordinate officials and friends, as well as many officials in the court, were very anxious and wanted to stop Zhang Rang's framing of Wang Yun. The generals He Jin, the Taiwei Yuan Kui, and Situ Yang Ci jointly wrote to the emperor, pleading for Wang Yun, hoping that Emperor Han Ling could pardon Wang Yun. In the recital, they wrote: "Wang Yun is strict with himself, lenient with others, loyal and sincere to officials, magnanimous and virtuous, and has the demeanor and integrity of a gentleman." In the past, Emperor Xiaowen of the Jin Dynasty and Emperor Xiaowen of the previous dynasty could distinguish between right and wrong and pardon the crimes of the ministers, so couldn't Your Majesty follow suit? In this way, Wang Yun was ordered by the imperial court to punish the traitors and appease the good people, and he should have been rewarded for meritorious deeds and promoted to the rank of knight; Is it because of such a trivial matter that he should be condemned to death? His Majesty punished him so unfairly, I am afraid that he will disappoint the expectations of the public, and the officials will not accept it. After reading the chapter, Emperor Liu Hong pardoned Wang Yun's capital crime, but he was still imprisoned for a new conviction. This winter, there was another amnesty from the imperial court. Because Zhang Rang has always been in the way, Wang Yun is still not among the pardons. He Jin, Yuan Kui, Yang Ci and other important officials of the three princes continued to write to the emperor, asking for a pardon for Wang Yun. It was not until the following year that Wang Yun was exonerated and released. At that time, the eunuchs in the DPRK and China were in power, and Zhang Rang eunuchs relied on their power to run rampant and do whatever they wanted. Although Wang Yun, who had just been released from prison, hated the actions of Zhang Rang and others, due to his limited strength, he had to change his name and surname, leave the capital Luoyang, and travel between Hanoi and Chenliu.

Soon Emperor Ling died, and Wang Yun hurried to Luoyang to mourn. At this time, the situation in the imperial court was extremely chaotic, the power of the relatives led by He Jin increased greatly, and the eunuch Zhang Rang lost control of the central power and was in danger of collapse. The general He Jin took advantage of the opportunity of the funerals of various local officials to make friends and win over his own forces in order to seek concessions. As soon as Wang Yun arrived in Luoyang, he was urgently summoned by He Jin and explained his intentions. Wang Yun was grateful to He Jin for saving his life, so he agreed and took the position of a servant. Later, the situation changed dramatically, Zhang Rang gathered his henchmen, and tricked He Jin into the palace in the name of the Empress Dowager He summoning He Jin, and took the opportunity to ambush him. Wang Yun had to move to Henan Yin to temporarily escape Zhang Rang's arrogance. After Zhang Rang ambushed He Jin, Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shu and others, who had been secretly summoned, immediately led troops into Beijing to kill Zhang Rang. Zhang Rang, Duan Hang and others kidnapped the young emperor Liu Wei and Chen Liuwang Liu Xie and fled in the middle of the night. At that time, the ministers and doctors of the court were overwhelmed by the rapidly changing situation, and they did not dare to protect the young emperor. Wang Yun immediately sent some soldiers to follow Shangshu Lu Zhi to protect the young emperor, and afterwards, welcomed the young emperor back to the palace.

In 189 AD, Dong Zhuo abolished the young emperor, and was succeeded by Emperor Liu Xie, and Wang Yun was worshiped as a servant, and soon moved to Shangshuling. In 190 AD, Wang Yun replaced Yang Biao as Situ and concurrently served as Shang Shuling.

Entering the imperial court as an official, although it is not a smooth sail, but it is also a rise all the way, after Dong Zhuo occupied the Beijing Division, Wang Yun is ranked as the third duke, although there may not be any real power, but the state, especially Wang Yun's hometown, Wang Yun can be said to be obvious!

Wang Yun has three sons, the eldest son Wang Gai, who is in the official worship service, and follows Wang Yun as an official in the court. The second son Wang Jing, the third son Wang Ding, these two sons have never been officials, Wang Jing is filial piety under Wang Yun's knees, and Wang Ding is in his hometown in Qi County, recruiting troops and horses for Wang Yun, training soldiers, for future use.

Wang Yun also has a brother, the elder brother has two sons, the eldest son is named Wang Chen, and the second son is named Wang Ling. Historically, Wang Yun's father and son were killed together with Wang Yun, but Wang Chen and Wang Ling fled back to their hometown, Wang Ling was even more amazing, and was appreciated by Cao Cao after fleeing back to his hometown.

Because of his talent, the person in charge of Qi County is Wang Ling, whether it is Wang Chen or Wang Ding, under Wang Yun's instructions, they must listen to Wang Ling's arrangement.

"Second brother, now Zhang Yang colluded with the Huns, and Zhang Yan's battles have been won again and again, its momentum has been achieved, and there is no longer anyone who can compete with it, Zhang Yan is defeated and retreated, perhaps, hiding in the mountains is their best ending. And after Zhang Yang grows up, our big clan will naturally become the next object of his hostility, my Wang family is a family belonging to one and two states, and it is difficult to guarantee that it is not this bird. It's just that our strength is limited, but how can we resist this Yang's momentum? Second brother, since your uncle has entrusted you with full authority, it is best to prepare as soon as possible! ”

In the Wang's Mansion in the city, those who can speak and have certain rights are gathered here, Wang Chen and others are full of gloom, and this melancholy is also because of the battle between Zhang Yang and Zhang Yan.

"Big brother, now that the state is in full swing, can the younger brother not know? We are a wealthy family, and it is inevitable to bump into Zhang Yang, there are many grudges, and I have wanted to get rid of my Wang family's heart for a long time, but my uncle is my big Han Situ, and Zhang Yang does not dare to move easily. However, I don't dare on the surface, but secretly I don't know what means there will be, we can secretly recruit soldiers, and we can hide it from others, but we can't hide it from Zhang Yang. Now, the younger brother is only afraid that Cao Cao and Zhang Yan will lose too quickly, so that Zhang Yang will lose his restraint. It's good to say that Zhang Yan has a lot of experience, and if there is no containment, at that time, it will be the time for us to be passive! Wang Ling sighed dejectedly, but he was helpless.

Although he is talented, he is a little younger after all, not so sophisticated.

Moreover, any conspiracy and trickery, in the face of absolute strength, is a paper tiger, and the Wang family, when it comes to strength, is undoubtedly the weak party, and the difference is not half a star.

"It's entirely possible that the second son is worried." The next old man was Wang Ling's uncle, Wang Ming, I saw him smile bitterly, but his brows furrowed even deeper, "Zhang Yang's army is powerful, once the battle situation with Zhang Yan is stable, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not pay attention to our family." Zhang Yangjun's new victory, sharp victory, far from the strength of our hands, what can I do? ”

"Why don't you ask other counties to come to their aid. The truth of the cold lips and teeth, I think you will not know it. In addition to Zhang Yang and Zhang Yan, there are still more than 350,000 soldiers with armor, as long as Xiao Yiwei is powerful and some military horses are transferred over, it should not be difficult to resist Zhang Yang's small actions in secret. (To be continued......)
