Here, Wei Hu seized the withered sheep, and sent people to put him under house arrest in a cellar in the Jinling City Guard's Mansion, but Wang Jian, Xu Chang, Zhang Feng and others under the command of the withered sheep did not know about it, and returned to the camp in the south of Jinling City under the coaxing of Wei Hu.

There, it was the cantonment place specially allocated by Wei Hu to the soldiers of Niuzhu and the withered sheep.

Waited left and right, waited until the sun set, but still did not see the withered sheep come back, Wang Jian and the three couldn't help but be suspicious.

[Even if you enter the palace to discuss the military situation with Wei Hu, how can there be any reason for not hearing from you for a few hours? ] ]

Thinking of this, Wang Jian and the others sent people to the city guard mansion to inquire about this matter, but the reply they got was that their Niu Zhu army's handsome withered sheep was eating wine with Wei Hu in the mansion at the moment.

[The general and Wei Hu have a drink?] ]

Wang Jian, Xu Chang, and Zhang Feng looked at each other in shock. After all, the Jinling Army and the Niu Zhu Army were in a very stiff situation, and it was hard to imagine that the contradictions between the two armies did not involve the withered sheep and Wei Hu.

But having said that, Dry Sheep and Wei Hu are known life and death confidants to everyone after all, and there has been no shortage of drunken things in the past, so Wang Jian and the others don't feel that there is anything wrong, but they just wonder why Dry Sheep would eat with Wei Hu at this stall.

It seems that the current situation is not a good time to eat and drink, after all, Xie An and his more than 20,000 Jizhou soldiers are about to arrive in Jinling in the near future.

However, Wang Jian and the others still took care of their own affairs, because they were new to the house, and there were many things to take care of.

But to the surprise of Wang Jian and others, until three o'clock in the morning, they did not see the return of their coach Withered Sheep.

Suddenly, the three of them gradually became suspicious, and once again sent someone to the city guard mansion to inquire about the whereabouts of the commander of their army, Withered Yang, but this time the answer was. The withered sheep is too strong to drink, and has been drunk to the point of being drunk, and now he has rested with the guest room in the house.

In all fairness, there was indeed no shortage of withered sheep staying at Wei Hu's house in the past, but this time, due to the special circumstances, Wang Jian and the others really didn't dare to be negligent.

"Could it be that Wei Hu detained the big handsome?" Zhang Feng said tentatively.

Wang Jian and Xu Chang's faces changed slightly when they heard this, and they were about to talk about it in detail. Suddenly, I caught a glimpse of a figure outside the tent.

Subconsciously, Wang Jian made a silent gesture, and at the same time, a person walked in from outside the tent. Judging by his appearance, it turned out to be Wei Zhuang, the general of the left army.

[Wei Zhuang?] What is he doing here? ]

Glancing at Zhang Feng and Xu Chang, Wang Jian clasped his fists and said quietly, "I didn't know that the arrival of the Heavenly General of the Left Army was far away." I hope that the heavens will forgive your sins! ――I don't know what the Lord of Heaven is doing here? ”

"General Wang's words are so good!" With a chuckle, Wei Zhuang walked straight into the handsome tent, looked around at the handsome tent, and said slowly, "They are all the generals under the handsome tent of the withered sheep, why are they so angry?" Have the three generals forgotten that a few days ago, Wei was still advancing and retreating with you? ”

"......" Wang Jian and others did not say a word. After all, they are the henchmen of the withered sheep, and the bottom of this Weizhuang is fine. How could the withered sheep not speak to the three of them? Including Wei Zhuang's monitoring of the withered sheep under the order of Wu Heng, the fourth commander of the Taiping Army, the three generals were clear in their hearts.

Wei Zhuang obviously also sensed the indifference of the three generals to him. I don't mind if I smile slightly. Since ancient times, generals hate the prison army the most, guess why? The reason is nothing more than that the prison officer was sent by the imperial court and had the right to dismiss the general at any time, and this time he was ordered by Wu Heng to monitor the withered sheep. It's nothing more than the duty of supervising the army.

It's just that this prison army, there is also Wei Hu's supervision behind him, if a little bit is exposed, then Wei Hu will obviously not show mercy to his subordinates, and he will definitely kill him Wei Zhuang.

Truly. Wei Hu would definitely kill him Wei Zhuang, after all, he Wei Zhuang showed a murderous aura against Wei Hu at that moment.

Obviously, Wei Hu was also aware of this murderous aura, but because he was seriously injured at the time, he didn't do it on the spot. However, after Wei Hu recovered from his injuries, it was not possible.

[Why was you so breathless at the time?] ]

Thinking about it afterwards, Wei Zhuang secretly hated and was annoyed. Because after calming down, Wei Zhuang knew very well that even if Wei Hu was seriously injured, wasn't he Wei Zhuang injured his customary right hand by Liao Li, the general of the Zhou army? really fought, Wei Zhuang was not Wei Hu's opponent.

After all, the reputation of Wei Zou, Wei Hu, and Dry Sheep [the three masters] is not in vain.

Among them, Wei Zou is calculating, quite resourceful, from the fact that he can see through Liu Qing's plan against him at that time, and use the plan to design and kill Yang Yu, the commander of the Tianfu Army, he knows that this Wei Zou is by no means an ordinary person, but it is a pity that Yang Yu who he wants to kill is also a heroic hero, even if he is forced to a dead end, he still forcibly pulls Wei Zou down from the yin with his last breath, so that Wei Zou, a wise general who is favored by the eldest grandson Xiangyu, was killed by the target to be killed, and he died blindly.

If Wei Zou is more resourceful and less brave, then the withered sheep is both civil and military, wise and brave, and even Xie An praised it several times, saying that although the current withered sheep is inexperienced, with his own talent, is he bound to shine in this world.

But Wei Hu, the last person in the three masters, is different from Wei Zou and Dry Sheep, this reckless man doesn't know what wisdom is or what is the art of war, he relies on a lot of blood to fight, which is very similar to Liao Li when he was excited, and even more impulsive and blind than Liao Li at that time.

But it is undeniable that this kind of hot-blooded general can best inspire the morale of his subordinates to swear to kill the enemy.

But then again, although Wei Hu is the most resourceless among the three masters, this does not mean that Wei Hu is the easiest to deal with.

Thinking about that Liang Qiu Hao, he is not a resourceful super Jedi person, but whether it is the eldest grandson Xiangyu or Liang Qiu Wu, there is no way to take him. There are times when strong force is very much not a deterrent. And although Wei Hu is far from the level of Liang Qiuhao, and even he may not be able to win Liao Li, Fei Guo, and Ma Dan, but his ruthlessness as if he wants to find someone desperately at any time, even Wei Zhuang is quite jealous.

Thinking about it, Wei Zhuang could only attribute the gaffe at that time to Wei Hu, that bastard, who really didn't know how to respect his predecessors.

But the matter has come to this point, Wei Zhuang feels that instead of regretting his previous gaffe, it is better to think of a way to make up for it, after all, he can't wait for Wei Hu to recover from his injuries and kill him, right? Moreover, Wei Hu has a good saying, he Wei Zhuang is indeed not so loyal to Wu Heng.

And no wonder. Who told Wu Heng to usurp the position that should have belonged to Liang Qiuhao?

It's not that Wei Zhuang was born in the Tianfu Army, so he has a sense of loyalty to Liang Qiuhao, it's just that Wu Heng usurped Liang Qiuhao's position and set a precedent in the Taiping Army, which made some ambitious people in the Taiping Army secretly think about it.

Why can Wu Heng take Liang Qiu Hao and become the supreme leader of the Taiping Army. And I can't?

I'm afraid that there are many people in the entire Taiping Army who have responded to this idea, such as Wei Zhuang.

But it's a pity that Wu Heng is not inferior to Li Shen, the king of Qin, how could he not see through the thoughts of his subordinates, and quietly cut off the military power in Wei Zhuang's hands at that time, and sent him to Niuzhu in the name of helping the withered sheep. In fact, it is to spy on the withered sheep.

A dignified general, not in charge of the army but acting as a military supervisor, as Wu Heng's henchman, Wei Hu knew what there must be in it with a casual guess. Although he Wei Hu is not good at resourcefulness, he is not stupid, how can he not see through such an obvious thing?

It is precisely because of this that Wei Hu threatened Wei Zhuang not to report the matter of the withered sheep to Wu Heng, after all, if Wu Heng really investigates it. Wei Hu was also not sure that he would be able to keep the withered sheep. For the sake of his good brother's safety, Wei Hu did something against Wu Heng's order for the first time. After all, he knows too well what kind of hero Wu Heng is.

But Wei Hu's actions not only angered Wei Zhuang, but also made Wei Zhuang uneasy, so he came to the Niuzhu Dry Sheep Army camp and met Wang Jian, Zhang Feng, and Xu Chang in the tent.

The so-called first strike is stronger. Before Wei Hu attacked him, Wei Zhuang planned to find a way to eradicate Wei Hu first, and it was best to kill even the withered sheep together, as for the troops under the command of the two, of course it was taken over by him Wei Zhuang?

And the best way to eradicate Wei Hu and withered sheep. is to provoke the Niu Zhu Army and the Jinling Army, just like what he is doing right now......

"Wei Hu...... Buckle the withered sheep handsome! ”

After a moment of silence, Wei Zhuang spoke in a low tone.

"What? Wei Hu put our family under house arrest? ”

Xu Chang, who had the most temper among the three generals, was shocked and angry when he heard this, and without saying a word, he picked up his portable weapon, turned around and walked out of the account.

Seeing this, Wang Jiande hurriedly grabbed it, and asked tentatively with a look of surprise, "What do you want?" ”

I saw Xu Chang sneering when he heard this, gritted his teeth and asked, "Do you need to ask more?" Naturally, it is to recruit brothers to rescue the handsome! ”

"I knew it!" Glaring at Xu Chang angrily, Wang Jian said in a deep voice, "Don't be impatient!" - The marshal has a word in front, if the marshal is not there, you both must listen to my dispatch, otherwise the military law will deal with it! ”

Xu Chang was furious when he heard this, and yelled at Wang Jian, "What do you mean by this? Do we have to wait for the handsome to die and not save him? Do you want to sit back and watch the big marshal being detained by the treacherous Wei Hu? ”

"Save, of course you have to save, but ......" Speaking of this, Wang Jian turned to look at Wei Zhuang and said in disbelief, "General Shu Mo dared to ask one or two, how did Lord Wei Zhuang know that my family's boss was detained by Wei Hu?" ――Besides, why is Lord Wei Zhuang here in Jinling? ”

Xu Chang and Zhang Feng were stunned when they heard this, and then they remembered that Wei Zhuang's whereabouts had been unknown since the night when their Niu Zhu army attacked the Zhou camp.

"Hey, hey, the three of you look at Wei like this, it's a little inappropriate!" It seemed that he saw something from the eyes of Wang Jian and the others, Wei Zhuang spread his hands and said with a wry smile, "The three of you are thinking, Wei Mou became a deserter that day?" - The conscience of heaven and earth! That Su Wei dragged several generals of the Zhou army for the three of them, and almost died on the battlefield......" When he spoke, he did not forget to show Wang Jian and others the injury on his right arm.

In all fairness, although Wei Zhuang exaggerated the number of Zhou generals who were dragged, he did not exaggerate the degree of danger, after all, Liao Li was one of the few fierce generals in the Jizhou army, if it wasn't for Liao Li's vague awareness that Wei Hu Army, who was quietly marching from the north to attack their Zhou army camp, and was a little distracted so that Wei Zhuang seized the opportunity to escape, where would Wei Zhuang still have his life?

"Hiss......"

Seeing that Wei Zhuang took the initiative to untie the bandage wrapped around his right arm, Wang Jian and the others subconsciously glanced at it, and took a breath of cold air in shock, after all, the knife marks on Wei Zhuang's arm were as thick as a little finger, twisted and twisted like an earthworm, and there were many blurred blood clots during the period, Rao is Wang Jian and others had a bad impression of Wei Zhuang, and they had to believe Wei Zhuang's words.

In fact, it was precisely because Liao Li seriously injured his habitual right hand that Wei Zhuang did not dare to offend Wei Hu, after all, he was now. Only the left hand can exert strength, how can the strength decline by fifty percent?

Although Wei Zhuang scolded Liao Li several times in his heart before, at this moment, he was a little grateful to the former, after all, if Liao Li hadn't injured him so badly, he Wei Zhuang would not have won the trust of Wang Jian and others so easily.

It's not. When he Wei Zhuang carefully wrapped the bandage again, Wang Jian's tone of voice was obviously much closer.

"When our army entered the city, we didn't see Lord Weizhuang, could it be that Lord Weizhuang entered the city one step ahead of me?"

"I'm ashamed!" Wei Zhuang sighed deliberately and said self-deprecatingly, "That day, Wei was chased by Liao Li, the general of that week, this person's martial arts are better than me, Wei is invincible, in order to save his life, he can only run away in embarrassment." Running away. He unknowingly fled to the territory of Jinling...... I was going to Jinling to ask for help, but after entering the city, I heard that Wei Hu had led the army to aid the Dry Sheep Marshal two days earlier, so why ......"

Seeing that Wei Zhuang stroked the injured right arm and didn't say any more, Wang Jian and the others didn't ask anymore, thinking that it was nothing more than Wei Zhuang seeing that since the withered sheep had been rescued, he rested in Jinling City. Although everyone cherishes their lives, not to mention that this Wei Zhuang is not really a general under the dry sheep tent, there is no reason to force him to go to the soup for Niu Zhu's army, and even lose his life in the end. However, it is not good to say these words too clearly. Therefore, whether it was Wei Zhuang or Wang Jian, the three of them had a tacit understanding to skip this matter.

"How did Lord Wei Zhuang learn that Wei Hu had detained my general?"

Seeing that Wei Zhuang still had some trust at all, Xu Chang finally couldn't help but ask about the matter.

"That's the ......," Wei Zhuang, who was pacing with his back to the three of them, rolled his eyes slightly, and said in a smug manner, "Yesterday, the generals entered Jinling with the commander of the withered sheep. Wei was resting, but he heard that Wei Hujun in Jinling wanted to take over your army......"

"Take over?!" It was quite similar to the feeling of the withered sheep at that time, Wang Jian, Xu Chang, and Zhang Feng were shocked and angry when they heard this, and asked repeatedly, "Is it what Wei Hu meant?" ”

"I guess so! -- You also know Wei Hu's temper. Rigid and self-serving, if he hadn't nodded, how would his subordinates dare to make a mistake?! ”

"Sure enough, ......" Xu Chang gritted his teeth with hatred when he heard this, after all, today in the city guard mansion, he did see with his own eyes a lot of sneering at them from the generals of the Jinling Weihu Army.

Seeing this, Wei Zhuang secretly laughed in his heart, and continued to ask in a deep voice, "After noon today, the three generals went to the City Guard Mansion?" ”

Wang Jian nodded and said, "Wei Hu sent someone before, saying that he had something important to discuss with the Withered Sheep Marshal and me, but when I got there, Wei Hu didn't see anyone for a long time, and finally although he invited the Withered Sheep Marshal into the inner room to discuss, he left us outside......"

Wei Zhuang chuckled lightly when he heard this.

In fact, Wei Hu's delay at that time was because Wei Zhuang was revealing to him about the meeting with Xie An, the commander-in-chief of the Zhou army, in a small boat on the river before the war, and it was precisely because of this that Wei Hu, who was really going to discuss the military situation with the Withered Sheep and others, became suspicious and temporarily changed his mind and designed to detain the Withered Sheep first, lest the Withered Sheep really follow the agreement between him and Xie An and defect to the Zhou Dynasty after the defeat.

Of course, this kind of thing Wei Zhuang obviously can't reveal to Wang Jian and others.

"That's it!" Nodding, Wei Zhuang said in a deep voice, "Wei Hu falsely claimed that he was seriously injured and difficult to get up, and lured the withered sheep into the inner room. You also think, the withered sheep marshal was originally grateful to Wei Hu for his support in relieving the siege, but seeing that he was seriously injured and difficult to get up, how could he not go inside to visit? Then Wei Hu detained the withered sheep handsome with this design...... If not, why hasn't the withered sheep returned to the camp now? ”

"How can it be!" Hearing this, Zhang Feng angrily reprimanded, "In vain, the marshal regarded that Wei Hu as a sibling, and actually made this kind of indiscriminate trick to make the marshal......"

"Wei Hu is treacherous, it's not too late to leave this matter for future scolding!" Raising his hand to interrupt Zhang Feng's words, Wang Jian asked Wei Zhuang in a deep voice, "Lord Wei Zhuang, the last general wants to know, how will Wei Hu deal with the marshal?" ”

"It's hard to say...... Standing with his back to the three generals, the corners of Wei Zhuang's mouth raised a little inexplicable smile, and he said in a heavy tone, "The three also know that Wei Hu is the most loyal to Wu Heng, who does Wu Heng want him to kill, Wei Hu doesn't even blink his eyes." ――Although Wei Hu was like a brother to the withered sheep handsome before, it was ...... Don't be optimistic! ”

Wang Jian's faces became even darker when they heard this.

However, Wei Zhuang was not enough, struck while the iron was hot, and continued, "How did the three Dao Wei know about the relationship between the Withered Sheep Marshal and the Zhou Army Commander Xie An? It's nothing more than Wei Hu telling Wu Shuai in private! - If it is just an ordinary person, but the brother-in-law of the withered sheep is amazing, it is a first-class member of the Zhou court, and it is said that he is still the most favored magnate around the emperor...... Do you think that after Wu Shuai learned about this, he still dared to trust the withered sheep handsome? ”

"That's why Wu Shuai sent Lord Weizhuang to Niuzhu ......," Zhang Feng nodded suddenly in realization.

was poked by Zhang Feng's unintentional words, Wei Zhuang's face was a little embarrassed and embarrassed, and he said with a wry smile, "In fact, Wei doesn't want to be this prison soldier, and he is treated by everyone every day, why bother?" ”

Wang Jian smiled awkwardly when he heard this, and after coughing, he asked in a deep voice, "Then Lord Zhaowei Zhuang wants to come, will Wei Hu harm my general?" ”

"Probably not for the time being...... Don't blame Wei for speaking bluntly, if Wei Hu wants to kill the withered sheep, he will kill him early, and he will not detain the withered sheep and put him under house arrest. In my opinion, most of them plan to send someone to escort them to Wu Shuai's side, and Wu Shuai will decide ......"

"......" Wang Jian and the three looked at each other when they heard this, and they didn't have to guess to know that if the withered sheep was escorted to Wu Heng's side now, they would definitely die.

And that's not what they want to see. But what if you don't want to see it?

Just when the three generals were hesitating, they suddenly heard a whisper in the tent, which shocked them.

"If the three want to save the withered sheep, Wei is willing to help! -- To put it mildly, the situation of our Taiping army is getting worse and worse, and the territory is getting smaller and smaller under the repeated attacks of the Zhou army...... Since the withered sheep has his brother-in-law's way, why don't you take me with you, how about it? - I waited for Wei Hu to rebel, rescued the withered sheep marshal, and joined the Zhou army! ”

“……”

Wang Jian, Xu Chang, and Zhang Feng glanced at each other, gritted their teeth and nodded violently after half a sound.

They didn't notice that the moment they gritted their teeth and nodded, the corners of Wei Zhuang's mouth raised a few inexplicable smiles. (To be continued......)
