Chapter 28: The Covenant of Kubei Village 2
Although Kubei Village is only 200 miles away from Hojing, it is not on the official road line due to its remoteness, and is out of the control of the capital. It's inaccessible and remote, and perhaps because of the war, a few of the village's dilapidated huts are gone. Wu Genglu's father led everyone and accurately found the dry well where they stacked their weapons.
"Prince, you rest in the house for a while, and I'll take my brothers to fetch the blades." A short, lean middle-aged man jumped off the horse, clasped his hands into fists, and said to Wu Genglu's father.
"General Quirk has worked hard! You and the four of the Northern Halberd Sharpshooter will move the blades, and the rest of the people will follow me into the hut to rest for a while. Wu Genglu's father replied in a deep voice.
At this time, Wu Genglu's father seemed to be the prince's leader, and after he made arrangements, he led the rest of the people into the hut.
The thin and short Wonder led the four of them around the back of the thatched hut, where there was a dry well, and the mouth of the well was full of dry wood.
Qi Qi was quick with his hands and feet, and lifted the dead branches three times and twice, and the dry branches covered the place, revealing a well, which was not big, and could allow two people to go down side by side. He climbed the eaves of the well, his body was as light as a swallow, and with his other hand he took many blades out of the well. There are meniscus broadswords, light halberds, slender swords, and square sledgehammers.
He is really a good skill, he is like a spirit monkey, his movements are swift, one hand climbs the wall of the well, the other hand is extremely powerful, and he throws it to the four people in the well while taking it. The four people in Inoue are also astute, and they can handle many weapons effortlessly. After a while, all the weapons in the well were taken out and brought into the hut, and more than a dozen people had their own blades in their hands, and happy smiles appeared on their faces.
"Zhou Lao'er was worried that his throne was unstable, and he was afraid that some foreign ministers would assassinate him, so he did not allow Chaohe's people to bring swords into Hojing. At this time, I am afraid that all the envoys will be like us, digging out their weapons from the snow, taking them with them, and returning to their own territory. A tall, fat man said loudly. He held two sledgehammers in both hands, and these two sledgehammers, to say the least, weighed more than 100 pounds, and he held them in his hands effortlessly.
General Han said cautiously. Wu Genglu's father stepped forward and patted this person on the shoulder, called him General Han, and said with a smile, "No matter which dynasty or generation, when foreign ministers visit the king, weapons are not allowed to enter the palace, this is the rule, not to mention ......" Wu Genglu's father stopped talking with a sad expression.
"The prince doesn't have to be sad!" A man with a full beard, fair skin, and a fat body, who was extremely tall, stood up and said, "Since ancient times, we have become kings and defeated cowards, and we have nothing to say today, but in the future!" The tall man lowered his voice and said fiercely, "As long as the prince is determined, we still have many opportunities." ”
"General Liao is right!" Another person stepped forward and thrust the big knife in his hand into the ground, and said angrily, "Today, the situation is unstable, as long as we stabilize our position and secretly gather strength, we are not afraid of the days when there is no future." ”
"Everyone's heart, Wu is grateful." Wu Genglu's father clasped his hands into fists, saluted everyone, and said, "It's a shame, I don't dare to forget!" I have the same thoughts as the generals, and from today onwards, I make an oath with all my brothers: from now on, I will never abandon the glory of my great merchants. Father Wu Genglu said resolutely, with a lot of thoughts in his heart, and his heart was full of endless gratitude in the face of these old generals who were loyal and followed him.
"Right now, Jiang Ziya, Ji Dan and others have relaxed a little towards the rest of our Yin Shang clan, as long as we accumulate strength, secretly gather troops, raise war preparations, and sharpen tactics, we are not afraid that there will be no chance to recover our big business." Wu Geng Yu Yin was gentle and elegant, he held the sword in his hand, and said word by word.
"Yes, yes, the two princes have backbone." An older, more steady-looking man said.
"What is Master Fan's opinion?" Father Wu Genglu glanced at the elder and said.
"Everything is in the long run, and you must not be reckless. The resumption of business was a long and difficult matter, and now, the two princes have saved their lives, and they are not afraid that they will not come. The man, known as "Fan Junshi", said in a low and slow voice.
"Good!" Wu Genglu's father has been smart and studious since he was a child, and he can understand it at one point, he listened to everyone's opinions, and after saying "good", he said, "The wind and snow are vast, we need to travel day and night, rush back to Chaoge, and resume business, it all depends on you." If you want to be ashamed of the snow country and avenge your family, you have to rely on your former strength, and I will wait until I return to the court, and then think about it in the long run. ”
"There are still more than 1,000 miles away from Chaoge, and it will take three or four days to travel around the trail day and night. After everyone had eaten some cooked food here, we hurried away. Wu Geng Yu Yin continued.
Although Wu Genglu's father and Wu Geng Yu Yin were former Shang princes, in order to stabilize people's hearts, King Wu of Zhou listened to the advice of Taifu Ji Dan, not only did not kill the children of King Xu, but instead gave the song to Wu Genglu's father, and gave Wu Geng Yu Yin the Hui three hundred miles away. King Wu of Zhou used Prince Yin Shang to manage the original Yin subjects, and obtained temporary stability in the situation.
Wu Genglu's father and Wu Geng Yu Yin have been sensitive and studious since childhood, and they are extremely intelligent. Although King Wu of Zhou killed their father and queen mother, the two had a bitter enmity, but after judging the situation and saving their lives, they surrendered to the Great Zhou Dynasty on the surface. When the congratulatory table was presented on the winter solstice, they looked like they were willing to be courtiers, but in the depths of their hearts, the pain of killing their father and stealing the country will never be forgotten.
If you want to restore the country, it is not without a chance.
The remnants of Yin Shang are all in the hands of the two princes, and the capable generals who worship the Black Tiger are not only Ji An, but also General Han Ling, General Liao Yuan, General Qi Qi, and the military Fan Ziyi, as well as the famous "Northern Halberd Divine Spear" in the Wen Taishi Army, the four masters of Shouyi, Guyi, Qianyi, and Class One. These generals and military advisors who fled and survived from the Battle of Muyi later learned that the crown prince was divided and still managed Chaoge, so they secretly found Wu Genglu's father and served under his command in order to come to Japan.
Wu Genglu's father and Wu Geng are in Yin's heart, and it is a matter of time before they plan to resume business, but the winter solstice royal city banquet, the reunion of the royal brothers and sisters in the pavilion, is a fuse, the bitter tears of flesh and blood, and the sad look of grief completely ignited the flame of revenge in their hearts.
The wind and snow were vast, Wu Genglu's father and his party quickly whipped up their horses and rushed towards Yindu.
