32. Scheme

As soon as the autumn breeze is cool, the grassland becomes bleak, looking at the patches of pasture grass from green to yellow, the homesickness in the Wukui battalion is rampant, it has been a whole year, and the year has not been reunited with his wife and child, in the eyes of many sergeants, it is extremely unbearable, so when Yang Hao ordered the retreat of the army, the battalions were like the New Year, and now there is no need to mobilize at all, the thoughtful soldiers packed up their bags as quickly as possible, and only waited for an order from above, and flew over the Qianli Pass and returned to their warm nests.

The order to withdraw was given in secret, and the daunting black robe began to roam the battalion again, supervising the orderly retreat of the battalions.

The Khitan besieged the city for a year, except for extorting a little gold and silver by selling water, almost no benefit, as soon as the Khitan people left on the front foot, there was a big celebration in the big stone city, the celebration feast lasted for three days and three nights, the Khitan people left, and the small tribes nearby came to trade again, cattle and sheep, vegetables, wine, everything, enough to support this grand celebration dinner,

The princes and ministers of the following Kare also put on a posture of rejoicing with the people, they took to the streets to raise a glass with the people to celebrate this hard-won victory, praised the brave and fearless defenders of the city, attacked the evil Khitans, and carved the statues of Galgudu, Zhang Bo and others out of wood, and carried them through the streets, and everywhere they went, the people treated these statues in the most contemptuous way, throwing rotten eggs at them, spitting, and urinating,

On the third day of the celebration, the theme quietly changed, and the lord of the city, Klaj, publicly declared at a rally that they would help the city to keep it not only the brave city defenders, but also the distinguished guests who had come from afar, the warriors of Jiankun,

In the early morning of the fourth day, the sky that had been clear for half a month was suddenly overcast, and the cold wind blew through the streets and alleys, after three days and three nights of carnival, the whole city was exhausted, and in the cold morning, except for some old people who were used to getting up early, even the most diligent scavengers were gone, and people were sleeping soundly, perhaps after noon, there would be sleepy-eyed crowds on the streets, at this time, the official residence of Kare was a tense and solemn, and this morning when the sky was not yet bright, Age's envoy Naleyev arrived in the city, He announced to the military and political officials of Age and the city:

Your ally, the great Khan of Jiankun Aje, has led his invincible Yellow Eagle warriors to the outside of the city, and ask the friends of Dashicheng to tell the Khitans where they are stationed as soon as possible, and the Khan and his warriors will cut off this scourge for you.

This is really talking nonsense with open eyes, the Khitans withdrew their troops south as early as half a month ago, where to find the Khitans for a decisive battle at this time, people are questioning more than this, didn't the city lord say that he invited the Sky Wolf Army, where did these blue-eyed and yellow-haired Jiankun come from,

Clarge had to defend this, he rebuked the Celestial Wolf Army for breaking the agreement, praised the selflessness and heroism of the Jiankun warriors, he defended the Jiankun people and defended himself, but his defense was not even taken seriously by the Governor Lu Meng, who was closest to him, and people began to accuse Clarge of leading the wolf into the house, which would plunge Big Rock into another disaster, and it seemed that these Kinkun were cunning and savage, they sang loudly in their mouths, but in private they did the most vicious thing: their army had just arrived in the city and took control of the water source in the west of the city, In the name of protection, the Khitans have left, what do you want to protect?

If they control the water source like the Khitans, the fate of Dashicheng will inevitably be in the palm of their hands again, and it is not surprising that the people, in their hesitation and resentment, will burn their anger at Krare.

By the afternoon of this day, such a legend began to circulate among the people of the city: the city lord Clarge led the wolf into the house, those blue-eyed, yellow-haired Jiankun people were not invited reinforcements, they were robbers who came to take advantage of the fire, the people were angry, we have suffered enough, we have just driven away a wolf, and now there is a tiger, the eternal great Immortal Heaven, why do you treat your people so cruelly, are we the people of the aliens abandoned by you,

If people lose the fear of God, then they can do anything.

The people of Dashicheng, who felt abandoned by God, have now also abandoned God, and they have gone out of their homes one after another, raising their swords and spears at the city lord Clarge, at the nobles who rode on their heads, and at the immortal heaven, who treated people so unfairly.

The riot began late at night and was extinguished at dawn,

The city was strewn with corpses and rivers of blood, and a seventh of the city's people died in the riot, a fifth of its houses were reduced to ashes, and a third of its soldiers were killed.

The riot gave the Jiankun people the best excuse, they began to pour into the city from the time of childhood, and by dawn there were more than 30,000 Jiankun warriors in the city, and the streets and alleys were full of blue-eyed and yellow-haired shadows, and even the mansion of the city lord Clarge was roaming with Jiankun soldiers.

Clarge has become a puppet, his home has become the camp of the general Indifferent Ke under the command of Age, Indifferent Ke calls his mother A-Niang, and treats him as the closest and closest brother, if there is anything good between good brothers, it should be taken out and shared, the wine that Clare has collected for many years has become the favorite of Indifferent Ke's cup, his sword inlaid with red sapphires hangs on Indifferent Ke's belt, and the singer beauty he painstakingly collected was also tied to Indifference Ke with a rope and sent outside the city to give to Age, His beautiful wife and concubine also had to be sacrificed to share with his righteous brothers,

He said self-deprecatingly, in order to quell the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Emperor also used the Uighurs, and in return, the emperor promised the children of Chang'an City to take the jade silk with the guests, the Tang Emperor is the Son of Heaven, he can do it, why can't I do it,

Clarge kept telling herself, to endure, to endure, to measure, the children can come back if they go, and the beautiful wife and concubine can remarry, as long as I am still the lord of Big Rock City, everything I have lost can be recovered,

But to his frustration, the Jiankun people seem to regard this as their home, and intend to live for a long time, and the things at home can be taken and used as they want, and the appetite is simply endless, and everything that can be scraped has been scraped into the camp of the Jiankun people, the gold, silver and jade silk have been piled up into a mountain, the people and horses have become rows, and the grain is so much that there is nowhere to store it, and the Meiji are no longer favored, the Jiankun people let them go naked, drive them to serve as slaves, the city is looted, the wealth accumulated for hundreds of years is empty, the faces of the people are described as withered, and the officials and nobles complain,

But Clarre's heart gradually warmed up, and his eyes became bright.

It seems that the Jiankun people still have to go, in the end, they are barbarians on the grassland, they are not blessed to enjoy this prosperous place, let's go, let's go, Quan Dang has a serious illness, the disease comes like a mountain, the disease goes like a thread, the root of the disease goes, the disease can get better, there is no disease and no disaster, and the life can go on again.

Of course, the scheming Clarge did not believe that the Jiankun people would leave here so easily, and they had to put some pressure on them, and under his instigation, there were riots in the city, although each rebellion was suppressed by the Jiankun people without exception, but the Jiankun people obviously lost their patience, and the indifferent Ke spat at him: "As soon as the snow stops, we will go back to the grassland." ”

Clarge said hypocritically: "Don't, our brothers are not good enough, this heavy snow is coming, the road is impassable, how do you go, why don't you wait until the beginning of spring next year before leaving." Indifferent Ke smiled: "We are the descendants of the Yellow Eagle, how can we be trapped by the heavy snow, thanks to the hospitality of my brother, when I leave, I want to give you a big gift." "Clarge said that he didn't dare, it is his duty to entertain his brothers who have come from afar,

Indifferent Ke said: "Even so, if I don't repay you, I can't bear it in my heart, I know that you, the city lord, were elected by the major families in the city, and you are constrained by them everywhere, and you are very aggrieved. ”

When she heard this, she was overjoyed and said, "If you help me succeed, I am willing to make an alliance with my brother by blood, and I will always be a brother, and I will not betray you." Indifferent Ke Xi said: "My brother also has this intention." "Then he prepared the incense case, made a blood alliance, and worshiped his brothers,

The singer in the Clage Mansion is the most favored by Clage, indifferent Ke in the house, except for Mrs. Klarge Zhengfang, the rest of the concubines are allowed to take it, but the Qingqing is hidden, after the day of worship, Clage will show sincerity will Qingqing dedicate indifferent Ke, Qingqing is a Han person, in the past years with his mother in the big stone city, singing in the music hall for a living, often have to hide and sip Zhouji, grateful, after discovering the secrets of the two, risked death to go out of the house to report the hidden sip,

Qingqing persuaded: "He wants to wipe out everyone in the city, why don't you unite all the families to raise righteousness, occupy the city, and ask the Uighur Khan for help, so that his life can be saved and the great cause can be accomplished." Yin Yi was ashamed when he heard this, and said continuously: "I am not as knowledgeable as you as a singer, and I am ashamed to kill people." ”

He thought about it for a long time, and rode alone to see Lu Meng, Lu Meng was drinking in the cool room of the daughter of Klare, and when he heard the news, he put his wife aside, got up to see him, and the cool face was dark: Yin Yi has always been at odds with my father, and he came to visit late at night, there must be a reason, Nunuzui, instructed a clever personal maid to follow,

Lu Mengjiu was in the Han Dynasty, converted to Chinese culture, and the houses in the mansion were all set up according to the rich families of the Central Plains, there was a corridor outside the wall of the study, the windows were opened on the wall, and the paper was pasted, and the maid approached the study in the name of borrowing and sending tea, and listened outside the wall

Yin Yi sipped and saw Lu Meng crying on the ground, Lu Meng was shocked and asked why, Yin Yi said: "If the governor doesn't save me, I have no place to bury my death." Lu Meng asked the reason, wiped his tears in Yinyi, and then told him about the private worship between Clage and Indifferent Ke, and Lu Meng said disapprerovitously: "You think too much, this is just the city lord's restraint strategy." ”

Yin Yi said angrily: "The governor of the prince is frank, everything is good, if the city lord is restrained, why do you want to secretly worship, but it can be above board, only to show glory, want to be indifferent Ke is ruthless, snake and scorpion heart, since he entered the city, knock the bone and suck the marrow, how many families, you and I are not humiliated by him, and how many families are ruined, in the past, when he entered the city, he threatened to cut off all the families in the city, such people are said to do, and now he wants to leave, but he bows to the city lord in private, don't you want to attack us." ”

Lu Meng groaned: "What good is it for him to get rid of you and me. ”

Yin Yi sobbed: "If there is no restraint from you and me, he can hold the city lord hostage and do whatever he wants." ”

Seeing that Lu Meng still didn't believe it, he sobbed and said: "The governor doesn't believe it, tomorrow you can send someone to invite him to the mansion for a banquet, just say that it is a send-off banquet, you see if he dares to come, if he dares to come, there is no ghost in his heart, and if he doesn't dare to come, he has a ghost in his heart." ”

Lu Meng heard the sound and got up, grabbed the tea bowl and smashed it on Yin Yisi's face, Yin Yi was stunned with fright, his legs trembled and couldn't move, the tea bowl flew past his ear, passed through the papier-mâché window, and smashed into a person with a "snap",

Suddenly I heard the guards outside the door exclaim: "There are assassins, the assassins are wounded, and they are gone." There was chaos in the courtyard, but listening to the armor and the sword unsheathed, someone shouted: "Get it, get it." At one moment, a woman with unkempt hair and bleeding forehead brought in, Lu Meng drew a knife in his hand, and shouted, "Who sent you?" The woman stalked her neck and didn't say a word, Lu Meng raised the knife in her hand, and as a result, she ordered the guards to drag the dead body out, and said to Yinyi: "Just do what you want." ”
