Chapter 8 of the second volume

PS: A sense of boredom suddenly rose in Chen Song's heart.

These high-ranking generals used to think about themselves the most, rather than following their subordinates with their heads in their hands.

If they hadn't always been like this, how could the seeds of discord blossom and bear a bloody fruit in such a cold and freezing season?

When I woke up, one of the stars fell, and the other big pillar was about to break, and it had only been long since the Northern Expedition had passed, and the clouds were already shrouded overhead.

Fortunately, the overall situation is not out of control, there is no fire in each battalion, and the stage has not collapsed in Guanzhong.

After Fu Hongzhi left, Chen Song allocated fifty elite horsemen to Guo Xu, and asked Hu Luzheng and Xu Zhihao to accompany him to escort Shen Tianzi to Chang'an. Shen's personal soldiers were all detained in Fu Hongzhi's camp, where they were strictly interrogated and the conspiracy was ascertained, while waiting for the Chang'an side to be punished.

Seeing the small group of people slowly walking towards Chang'an, looking up at the sun slanting to the west, a sudden dizziness made Chen Song sit unsteadily.

Send your own soldiers away, and lead the horse slowly.

On the shady slopes, the snow has not yet melted. He picked up a handful and rubbed it on his face for a while, his fingers were cold, but his head felt a little refreshed.

The snow foam that fell on the ground was finely broken and gradually turned into small black spots in the dust.

Snow, once covered the mountains and wilderness, thick to wide, seems to be far and wide, all-encompassing, to the present, only the remnants of the stars remain, scattered in the eternal unchanged Guanzhong loess.

Chen Song made a gesture while holding the horse, and his men and horses quickly lined up. Stopped Shen Tianzi like a wall. Looking not far behind Shen Tianzi, Guo Xu had already led someone to catch up. Guo Xu is further behind. In the distance, a cavalry came galloping in.

When Shen Tianzi saw Chen Song, he was slightly relieved at first. After all, he was a person under his command, but then he realized that this person and Guo Xu were close friends. Only by quickly returning to the camp and returning to the position of the generals of the army can we ensure that Wang Zhen's evil party will not dare to act rashly. He needed to quickly send troops to attack Great Xia, and at the same time unify the caliber in his own army and form an offensive and defensive alliance. At present, Guanzhong is in danger, as long as he can win, he will have a meritorious role in defending Chang'an. can score points with Liu Yizhen, and there will be time to be qualified to maneuver with Liu Yu.

Anti-customer-oriented, sink your face:

"Chen Song, the rangers are about to go on an expedition, how dare you leave your post without permission?"

Chen Song obviously came prepared, and was not frightened by this question:

"The rangers are ready to go, the main general is delayed, and the last general is worried about the safety of the general, so he specially brought people to protect him."

Shen Tianzi was choked suddenly. Chen Song seemed to defend himself. In fact, it is meant to accuse. was quickly looking for something more energetic and deterrent, Guo Xu had already rushed to him and pointed his sword at Shen Tianzi:

"Lord Chen, Shen Tianzi killed General Wang Zhen for no reason. Don't let him go! ”

Although the Spring Festival has passed, the Spring Festival Gala in Guanzhong, the spring thunder is still far away. But everyone's hearts instantly burst into a loud thunder.

Chen Song was struck by this lightning, and his whole mind was instantly scorched.

Wang Zhenwei has been killed!

Wang Zhenwei was killed by Shen Tianzi!

Wang Zhenwei was killed by his subordinate Shen Tianzi!

Wang Zhen evil. A famous general of the Northern Expedition and a great hero of the Northern Expedition. Liu Yu, the commander of the front army, the supreme commander of the north, and the people of Guanzhong, were killed by his subordinate Shen Tianzi!

It's not a nightmare. Such a crazy dream, whoever dares to do it should kill whose head!

It's not a joke. Such a ridiculous joke, who said to cut whose tongue!

looked at Hu Luzheng and Xu Zhihao around him, and his expression was like sleepwalking.

The 200 horsemen they brought with them became clay warrior figurines.

Shen Tianzi had regained his composure at this moment, and put one leg cross-legged on the saddle in his habitual movements:

"Wang Zhenwei tried to kill the people of Guangnan and set himself up as the king in Guanzhong, I was ordered by the Taiwei to kill him, that is, to eliminate the harm to the soldiers of Beifu, do you want to stand on his side? Aren't you afraid of the same sin? ”

Before Chen Song could say anything, Xu Zhihao, the leader of the small team beside him, had already scolded Guanzhong at the top of his throat:

"What nonsense are you talking about! It depends on your ambition and wants to dominate Guanzhongli. You dare to kill such a good person as General Wang, your grandmother is a donkey beast! ”

On weekdays, Chen Song would definitely stop Xu Zhihao, but he was silent at the moment.

Guo Xu's lips trembled, and his voice trembled:

"Even if General Wang is really guilty, it should be sent by General Liu Yizhen, who is your immediate boss, and it is not your turn to deal with him. What's more, he didn't harm you, why did you go out of your way to set a trap to deceive him, and kill so many of his flesh and blood brothers! ”

Everyone was shocked again, but they didn't expect that Wang Zhenwei was not the only victim of this tragedy.

Hu Luzheng was originally watching as a guest, but at this time he was shocked and disgusted, and sighed:

"General Shen, I thought that you had no other problems except for a bad temper, and it was good to fight, but I didn't expect that your heart was more poisonous than the wolf on the Xianbei grassland. The most vicious wolves will not bite the wolves of their own pack. You are more like the devil that our older generation talked about, who dares to swallow anything but your own body. ”

Shen Tianzi wanted to scold back, but after thinking about the Xianbei people's Hu Luzheng not talking about the Han people's false etiquette, he was likely to shoot an arrow if he was in a hurry. But he was unwilling to admit defeat, so he raised his head unruly and made a disdainful argument, but there were already people around him who buried their heads in shame. They are all members of the Shen family, but they are all human beings, and if they are human, they have a sense of shame.

Guo Xu refused to stop talking, and the heart-wrenching argument gushed:

"The previous time, you disobeyed the military order and withdrew your troops to Liu Huibao without authorization, General Wang could have taken you down with arbitrary power, but he was open-minded and still let you go, and immediately gave you a heavy responsibility. At that time, you confessed your mistake to him in front of General Fu Hongzhi and me, and said that you would make meritorious service for your crimes. General Wang immediately took no blame and gave you the opportunity to make a meritorious contribution. I didn't expect you to have a human face and a beast's heart, and you will take revenge! You've been preparing for this trap for more than a day. When General Wang selflessly discussed with you about the strategy of marching, you were full of thoughts about how to take the head of others! How dark and dark your heart is! ”

Shen Tianzi was poked to the point, full of shame like a skin bag filled with blood being torn open, and all the purple and red poured onto his face. Under the excitement, the voice was hoarse:

"Guo Xu. Don't forget that Lao Tzu is a Chinese soldier joining the army, Shiping Taishou, and General Long Xiang, what kind of dog are you. If you dare to point fingers at me, can't I call the left and right orders to behead you! ”

He thought that Guo Xu would be suppressed by these titles, but the latter immediately called back:

"You still have the name of General Longxiang! Before General Wang Zhenwei conquered Chang'an, he was also General Long Xiang. Yes, everyone knows that he is greedy for money, but he is greedy for the wealth of the enemy, and he never drinks the blood of his own people or his comrades. Open your dog's mouth and inquire about the people who have followed him. Who doesn't say that he cherishes his comrades and treats his subordinates well! Guo Xu, the lord of the building, is much younger than you, but I am the governor of Sima Men personally appointed by Taiwei, and I am in charge of the safety of General Wang. Someone plotted to kill General Wang, I just fought to break the net, and I had to tie him up and send him to Jiangdong and hand him over to the Taiwei to send him down! Whoever dares to stand in my way, I will kill my mother! ”

After speaking, he pointed forward with a sword. With one hand, he also took off the iron mallet from his waist.

Chen Song, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke at this moment:

"Guo Xu, don't get too excited. At this point, I also revealed my other identity. The Taiwei secretly appointed me as General Shen Tianzi's bodyguard, and was in charge of his safety. I can sue you today. It was on the day the lieutenant appointed you. ”

Shen Tianzi was taken aback.

With such an invisible guard by his side, Liu Yu never sued himself, and Chen Song himself didn't say anything. And Guo Xu has the same responsibility. Wang Zhen evil, but he knew. quickly figured out Liu Yu's intentions, but couldn't figure out the mystery. Sweat broke out on my forehead instantly.

Guo Xu looked at Chen Song for a long time, and suddenly didn't know whether this big brother was friend or foe at the moment. He only knew that Chen Song was a person who did things according to the rules and orders. If Liu Yu gave him the order to defend Shen Tianzi. Then he will defend to the end without a fight, even if he has to turn against his brother for this. Thinking that he was going to execute the beheading of Xiaoqiao's family, I couldn't help but feel cold in my heart. Looking at Hu Luzheng and Xu Zhihao again, they were also at a loss, but they had already subconsciously slowly rode their horses and left Chen Song's side.

Shen Tianzi had already settled down and decided to quickly take advantage of this gap to get out of here.

He pretended to smile leisurely, and said that since Lord Chen has the secret order of the Tai Lieutenant, then hurry up and open the way, and I will rush back to restrain the troops, so that the rangers can set off as soon as possible.

Chen Song looked at him expressionlessly, his voice was waterless, dry like a blade that had just wiped off the blood:

"General, sober up, things have come to this point, how can the rangers still get out? The commander of the side died abruptly, and the lower officials slaughtered the upper officials, this matter cannot be so vague, only Chang'an can adjudicate. From now on, I, the subordinate governor, will be responsible for escorting the general safely to the Yizhen Taishou Mansion, and from then on, whether it is good or bad, the general will ask for more blessings. ”

Shen Tianzi's face turned pale suddenly.

Looking at the encirclement of Chen Song and Guo Xu before and after, listening to the rumbling horses' hooves that are getting closer and closer, knowing that Fu Hongzhi is also approaching, he glanced at these henchmen around him again, guessed their combat effectiveness, and understood that he would not be able to rush out. If they were besieged by the Hu people, these Shen clan relatives would have the same hatred and hatred, and maybe they would be able to put them to death and live in the future. But at this moment, they have a ghost in their hearts, their backs are difficult to stand up, their bones are not hard, and they will not be angry at all.

Although his face was forced to be calm, he already sighed in his heart.

Fu Hongzhi's men and horses surrounded everyone and circled everyone in a big circle.

Fu Hongzhi didn't look at Shen Tianzi, and pointed at the people around him with a sword:

"Drop the staff!"

The soldiers glanced at Shen Tianzi first, and the latter raised his eyes to the sky and did not react. Then ask each other with their eyes, and no one has an idea.

A captain with a helmet and armor beside Fu Hongzhi drew his sword and shouted angrily:

"The general has an order, release the staff!"

The three armies should be reconciled:

"Drop the staff!"

Shen Tianzi's own soldiers threw swords, bows and lances on the ground with a clatter.

But there was one man who never moved, with tears in his eyes, and a lance in his hand.

Shen Tianzi glanced at him and understood why he was like this. This is Shen Jingzong's younger brother and Shen Tianzi's nephew, who was just killed by Fu Hongzhi. Shen Tianzi said softly:

"Huya, throw the lance away!"

Shen Huya didn't seem to hear anything, and his eyes stared straight at Fu Hongzhi.

There was silence in the audience, waiting for the consequences of a sudden burst.

Shen Huya suddenly shouted, the lance was clamped under his armpit, and the horse rushed straight at Fu Hongzhi. The winter sun shines on the tip of the lance, giving it an indestructible chill.

Fu Hongzhi saw that the official next to him was about to draw his sword. Shout out: No one moves.

When the hammer wrapped in impact was about to stab Fu Hongzhi in the abdomen, it was violently grabbed by a force. That power came from Fu Hongzhi's right hand. Shen Huya's hatred. Let him double the strength, but this power plus the impact of the horse. It was not enough to send the tip of the lance into Fu Hongzhi's body. He turned to the side slightly, let go of the blade, grabbed the lance, took advantage of the previous pull, pulled Shen Huya, who was sharp forward, into his arms, grabbed his belt with his left hand, picked him up from the horse, and put him on his saddle. As if the instant grappling wasn't enough to humiliate his opponent, he drew his sword again. Picked off Shen Huya's belt, ripped off his pants, crackled on his ass with the sword face and beat it more than ten times in a row, beating the two-petaled white Huahua's ass to a bloody blur, and then threw the half-naked and screaming Shen Huya to the ground:

"If you dare to assassinate the general, Lao Tzu could have beheaded you. Thinking that you have no brother, leave you a small life to go back to honor your father. Spanking you is even a lesson for your parents. Your Shen family, Shen Linzi is sensible, has rules, and can behave. The rest are all disrespectful and audacious murderers, to teach you a lesson, for your own good, lest one day the tail will go to the sky and smash your own brains! ”

Shen Huya's hatred. Already covered in fear and shame, I found my pants at the ankle level and scrambled to pull them up. Hide in the crowd.

Shen Tianzi heard that Fu Hong's words were in his words, and he was so angry that he had a cross-eyed attack. The whole body trembled, but Fu Hongzhi's spanking performance. It's for him to see, which means that if you don't obey, I have the means to deal with you. At this moment, he had realized that he was more than lucky, and suddenly thought that once he was escorted to Chang'an, his army would be taken over by Fu Hongzhi, who instantly became the strongest general in Guanzhong, and couldn't help but curse in his heart: The front door drives the tiger, the back door welcomes the wolf, and he struggles to shake the tree, but this kid picks up the fallen fruit.

At this point, the overall situation has been decided, Chen Song thought that Fu Hongzhi would take over Shen Tianzi's army, but the latter had other plans. asked Shen Tianzi and himself to jointly issue a warrant to cancel the Ranger mission, and Fu Ying's men and horses immediately went down to the village near the flank of Shen Ying, and the two armies were combined into one army, which was jointly commanded by Fu Hong's deputy and Chen Song.

"And what about you, General?"

Everyone asked.

Fu Hongzhi smiled and said that I rode off to Chang'an alone to explain the situation to Yizhen. After I set off for about three hours, let Guo Xu take someone to escort Shen Tianzi to set off, and don't go too fast on the road.

Guo Xu was still struggling to think about why Fu Hongzhi made such an arrangement, Chen Song had already understood Fu's intentions, and couldn't help but admire how delicate this seemingly rough general was in his heart.

Fu Hongzhi rode alone to play the role of an informant, not a calmer of the incident. Shen Tianzi's murder of Wang Zhenevil originally had nothing to do with him, but it happened in his camp, and it was not clear what Shen Tianzi had done, not to mention that Shen Tianzi did not move him, so in the eyes of Chang'an, whether he participated in the conspiracy or not was between the two. His current arrangement is that he would rather not take the credit for counterinsurgency, and put the capture of Shen Tianzi on the heads of Chen and Guo, and also completely clear up the involvement, causing him to suddenly encounter a disaster, flee the camp in a panic, and quickly report the situation in Chang'an. He arrived in Chang'an before Shen Tianzi, and he could also set the tone first to prevent the latter from being bitten by mad dogs. When Guo Xu escorted Shen Tianzi to Liu Yizhen, Liu Yizhen had already made mental preparations, plus he trusted Guo Xu, and Guo Xu would never say a word unfavorable to Fu Hongzhi at this time, so Shen Tianzi would not be able to turn the sky upside down.

More crucially, he left the army. Wang Zhenwei is dead, Shen Tianzi was arrested, and now outside Chang'an City, the one with the most soldiers in his hands is Fu Hongzhi. The princes of Chang'an, so far there is no time to mourn Wang Zhenevil, they are worried that Fu Hongzhi, who has suddenly risen and is a dominant family, will suddenly lose his opponent, and his ambitions will swell, maybe he will raise troops to the south and kill Chang'an to become the emperor himself. Fu Hongzhi rode into Chang'an alone, and he could give them a porcelain reassurance. And after the dust settles, the people who should be used still have to be used, and the battles that should be fought still have to be fought, Fu Hongzhi's subordinates still have to be handed over to Fu Hongzhi's moderation, a moment of dissociation, nothing is lost, and it can be exchanged for a more stable trust from the top management, why not?

A sense of boredom suddenly rose in Chen Song's heart.

These high-ranking generals used to think about themselves the most, rather than following their subordinates with their heads in their hands.

If they hadn't always been like this, how could the seeds of discord blossom and bear a bloody fruit in such a cold and freezing season?

When I woke up, one of the stars fell, and the other big pillar was about to break, and it had only been long since the Northern Expedition had passed, and the clouds were already shrouded overhead.

Fortunately, the overall situation is not out of control, there is no fire in each battalion, and the stage has not collapsed in Guanzhong.

After Fu Hongzhi left, Chen Song allocated fifty elite horsemen to Guo Xu, and asked Hu Luzheng and Xu Zhihao to accompany him to escort Shen Tianzi to Chang'an. Shen's personal soldiers were all detained in Fu Hongzhi's camp, where they were strictly interrogated and the conspiracy was ascertained, while waiting for the Chang'an side to be punished.

Seeing the small group of people slowly walking towards Chang'an, looking up at the sun slanting to the west, a sudden dizziness made Chen Song sit unsteadily.

Send your own soldiers away, and lead the horse slowly.

On the shady slopes, the snow has not yet melted. He picked up a handful and rubbed it on his face for a while, his fingers were cold, but his head felt a little refreshed.

The snow foam that fell on the ground was finely broken and gradually turned into small black spots in the dust.

Snow, once covered the mountains and wilderness, thick to wide, seems to be far and wide, all-encompassing, to the present, only the remnants of the stars remain, scattered in the eternal unchanged Guanzhong loess. (To be continued......)
