Chapter 63: Ambush
The sun is constantly rising, and the temperature is slowly rising.
The surrounding loess was silent, watching the sun rise higher and higher, and the sunlight was even more violent, Wang Dou, who had been standing still, suddenly spoke: "Brother Han, are you sure that Du Zhen will really pass by here?" ”
Han Chao took a step forward, hugged his fists and said: "Adult, small ones are sure, Du Zhen and the others will definitely pass by this official road!" ”
"The little one has found out clearly, that Du Zhenxinna's concubine gave birth to a baby boy the month before last, Du Zhen has always been fond of her, and said that on the day of the baby's full moon, he would hold a banquet in his concubine's hometown Wujiagou to celebrate. The small one has gotten the news, tomorrow the full moon will set out the wine, today Du Zhen will set off early in the morning, in addition to him and a group of family members, one of them will accompany him, Wu Shan, Du Gong, Xiao Daxin, and Xie Cihe and others will accompany him. ”
"From Shunxiang Fort to Wujiagou, this is the only official road, and they have no other way but to go here!"
Wang Dou snorted: "It's just a net!" ”
If you don't do it, you don't do it! Du Zhen is unkind, he is unjust, he wants to deal with himself, seeks to seize his own industry, touches the deepest taboo in his heart, and he will eliminate him from the **, see who is more ruthless!
Wang Dou had already decided to do it, so he asked Han Chao to carefully scout Du Zhen's various situations. After discovering that Du Zhen was going to Wujiagou today, Wang Dou decided to set up an ambush on the road, and after killing him, he happened to blame the bandits. There are more and more bandits entering Baoan Prefecture these times, and they are running rampant everywhere, just so that they can carry the black pot.
Han Chao did not collect at night, stayed in Shunxiang Fort all these years, and had long been familiar with the terrain near Shunxiang Fort, so he suggested doing it here. Wang Dou has also seen the terrain here, there are hills on both sides of the official road, and there is a valley mouth not far from before and after, and it is difficult to escape if you want to enter this place.
Moreover, there are no people in this place for several miles, and the nearest Fangjiagou is also five miles away, but at the end of last year, Fangjiagou was slaughtered by bandits from all sides, and it has now become an empty village. Although Wujiagou is only the hometown of his new concubine, not his hometown, but the majesty of returning to his hometown is the same.
It's not easy, I have been working hard in Shunxiang Fort for so many years, and I am finally going to sit in the position of a defensive officer, how many years have I endured humiliation for this official position? Thinking of the bitterness of the past, Du Zhen felt like he wanted to cry, and he also had a feeling of wanting to laugh out loud.
Thinking of the happiness in his heart, Du Zhen said a little more today, and the arrogant demeanor in the past was also a lot less.
He laughed loudly at Wu Shan beside him: "Chief Wu Tun, today your sister-in-law is full of moon wine, what gifts do you have prepared as an uncle?" ”
Wu Shance rode on Du Zhen's right, and was honored to walk side by side with Du Zhen, he was already smiling, but he was still always careful, and looked at Du Zhen's face from time to time.
At this time, after listening to Du Zhen's words, he hurriedly smiled and said: "It is all because of the cultivation of the defense lord, and the small one can be transferred from a small school to the position of the governor of Jingbian Fort." As for the little sister, she is happy to have a birthday, and I, as an uncle, have to prepare a generous gift even if I have all my family wealth. I didn't say it, my little sister's clothes and accessories, and the baby's clothes and hats, just buy them from the best store in the state city, and it will cost me more than eight taels of silver. ”
Du Zhen laughed: "You, who are uncles, are really ruined, but it's okay, you have to be transferred to the manager of Jingbian Fort, then Jingbian Fort is more and more prosperous, and it is also a matter of an eye to get this money back!" ”
Wu Shan smiled from ear to ear, but said repeatedly: "It's all because of the love of the defensive adults, so that the little ones can have today." ”
Du Gong rode his horse on Du Zhen's left side, his short and fat figure rode on a horse like a meat ball, he glanced at Wu Shan with jealous eyes, stroked his two burnt yellow mouse whiskers, and said: "Speaking of which, that Wang Dou still has some ability, but unfortunately he doesn't know how to be flexible, and when he hears that he will be transferred to his castle, I really don't know what his face will be!" ”
Xie Cihe rode on a horse behind, and after listening to Du Gong's words, he shouted loudly: "It is said that the person who knows the times is Junjie, and the king does not know what to do, there should be this report ()!" ”
Thinking about the situation when he went to Jingbian Fort that day, Xie Cihe became more and more angry, and after hearing that Wang Dou would be transferred, he was secretly happy in his heart, and at the same time he was thinking about how to have a good relationship with Wu Shan, the new head of Jingbian Fort, and he wanted to set up a store in Jingbian Fort.
Xiao Daxin has been riding beside Xie Cihe with a gloomy face, along the way, his face has rarely smiled, I don't know if he is used to doing this or is thinking about something insidious, at this time he said in a dark voice: "I'm afraid that Wang Dou is an outlaw, and the subordinates he raises are not good, will he obediently transfer to his castle at that time?" ”
Hearing this, Du Zhen's face became gloomy, obviously Wang Dou made him quite jealous, especially after hearing that his subordinates relayed the strength of Jingbian Fort.
Wu Shan was not happy when he heard this, he glanced back at Xiao Daxin, and shouted loudly: "He Wang Dou is not obediently transferred to his fort, does he still dare to disobey the order of the official?" He wants to rebel? ”
Hearing this, Du Zhen suddenly shuddered, and in a blink of an eye, he was as if nothing had happened, just peeking at others.
Du Zhen has always paid attention to the majesty in front of people, it is not good to lose his dignity, but fortunately, everyone was in a hurry, and they didn't see what he looked like just now, Du Zhen exhaled secretly.
Xiao Daxin and Wu Shan's words made everyone quiet for a while, obviously their words just now touched the hidden worries in everyone's hearts. Seeing that entering a hilly place, the narrower the official road, Du Gong changed the topic, and he smiled: "People say that bandits have been rampant in Baoan Prefecture recently, but I haven't seen a single bandit along the way!" ”
Wu Shan said with a smile: "This is all due to the prestige of the defense lord, so the thieves fled in despair!" ”
The crowd burst out laughing, and suddenly heard "Whoosh! With a bang, a powerful arrow came towards him, hitting Wu Shan's chest and immediately knocking him off the horse.
