Chapter 175: Self-Explanatory

Peng Xiaoyu left, walking very secretly, except for a few people around Wei Ba, almost no one noticed her leaving.

Wei Ba was a little lost, so much so that he was a little absent-minded during the dinner. Fortunately, the guests were attracted by the food and wine, and no one paid attention to him, and no one dared to mind his gaffe. The atmosphere reached a climax when the singers sang the ballad in praise of the Wei family in their graceful voices.

The news of Wei Yanqi's attack on Pucheng has come, in order to boost morale, Wei Ba has spread this victory to the whole camp two days ago, and the heroes and powerful people in Guanzhong have also received some news one after another, which proves the truth of this matter. It's just that such a formal promotion of the merits of the Wei family's martial arts, for some people, Wei Ba's move seems too ostentatious and inappropriate.

However, as Peng Xiaoyu said, the heroes in Guanzhong reacted very strongly to this, not to mention whether Wei Ba was a good object of loyalty, judging from the current battle situation, Wei Yan burned the warships collected by Cao Zhen, so in a short period of time, Cao Zhen could only look at the river and sigh, and their hope that Cao Zhen could recover Guanzhong as soon as possible was dashed. In the following days, whether to cooperate with Wei Ba first or continue to remain silent has become a question that has to be considered.

That's right, Wei Ba so much publicized the merits of his father Wei Yan and sang the praises of the Wei family's military soldiers, which is not a sign of political maturity. But it is precisely because of his immaturity that it is even more terrifying. As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of the horizontal, you are afraid of being stunned, and this kind of stunned youth who does not know the depth is the easiest to do things that you don't expect. For example, what if he were to send troops to attack which Dock fort? He is not short of people now, the Heavenly Master Dao believers scattered in Guanzhong are constantly gathering, he now has 50,000 or 60,000 people, and there are more than 10,000 selected recruits alone, practicing by the Kunming pool every day, making people unable to sleep. Those who fall asleep are also having nightmares.

Compared with the elated Heavenly Master Dao believers, the heroes and powerhouses in Guanzhong did not eat any taste at all, and they all had their own thoughts. Some get together and talk to each other, while others sit alone and weigh the pros and cons.

The kabuki finished singing and exited the lobby. Without the musical instruments and the singing of the kabuki, the lobby fell silent. Wei Ba leaned sideways, not knowing what he was looking at. Didn't stand up and speak anyway. If he didn't speak, the others didn't dare to speak casually, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a little weird.

This weirdness has different meanings in the eyes of different people. Wei Ba himself was purely disappointed by Peng Xiaoyu's departure. Not only is there one less person to speak, but more importantly, he feels that he is not strong enough to protect the person he wants to protect, and in turn has to use the adventures of a miserable woman to maintain the current line of defense. This made him feel a serious sense of frustration, and he was a little less confident about whether he could hold Guanzhong.

But to others, his silence has a different meaning. The unkind eyes of the Heavenly Master Dao believers turned to Guanzhong Haoqiang, and Guanzhong Haoqiang themselves felt like they were sitting on pins and needles, in their opinion. Wei Ba's silence was obviously waiting for their statement.

After a very short, but psychologically long silence, Ma An was the first to stand up: "Congratulations to General Zhenbei on his victory, the Ma family is willing to help join the army and send troops...... Two hundred, talk about the heart! ”

Wei Ba looked at him blankly, but Ma An became nervous, and hurriedly added: "Please rest assured that these two hundred people are definitely the elite of my Ma family, and they dare not have any perfunctory intentions." ”

Wei Ba came back to his senses and knew that these guys were starting to loosen their mouths, he smiled and nodded with satisfaction: "That's very good." Please ask Steward Ma to convey my gratitude to the head of the Ma family on my behalf, I will take good care of these two hundred people, and I will also be rewarded for my meritorious service in the future. ”

Ma An wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and secretly rejoiced. He still thought that Wei Ba had few suspects, and there were people in the Ma family, but judging from the current situation, they didn't want to get too close to Wei Ba, and two hundred people was already the limit.

With Ma'an taking the lead, the next people are much easier. Jin Xu also stood up, saying that the Jin family was willing to send 300 troops to follow the army to revive the Han Dynasty. If you don't pay attention to listening, you basically can't hear too much meaning, but if you analyze it carefully, there is a slight difference. The revival of the Han family is enough to show that the Jin family has decided to abandon the Han family and tie up with Shu Han.

After the golden ceremony, another person stood up in twos and threes, you are one hundred, I am fifty, and he is two hundred, and it is not long before more than 2,000 people are made. Wei Ba didn't care too much, he wouldn't expect these people to help him fight, to be honest, he didn't want to put his military power in the hands of these powerful people. With 100,000 Heavenly Masters and Dao people to help, he was able to put together about 20,000 new troops, but he just needed time to practice. As long as he is given a little more time, with these forty or fifty thousand horses and the two generals of Master Zhao Yun and Father Wei Yan, it should be enough to defend Guanzhong.

Guan Zhong Haoqiang lowered his headβ€”whether they were sincere or not, at least on the surface, they bowed their headsβ€”and Wei Ba immediately quickened the pace of attacking Jianzhang Palace. After more than ten days of training, the recruits have become familiar with the operation of thunderbolts and crossbows, as well as the bloody atmosphere on the battlefield. Under their attack, Jianzhang Palace, the palace that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty spent a lot of effort and money to build, many places have become ruins, and only a pile of broken bricks and tiles remains.

The worship of the newly recruited Heavenly Master Dao believers to the new Zhitou Great Sacrifice Wine was also initially established, and as soon as Wei Ba gave the order, they rushed to the gate of Jianzhang Palace, and their brave and fearless strength couldn't help but remind Wei Ba of the Boxers.

Religion is really a brainwashing weapon.

Under the cover of crossbows and thunderbolts, the soldiers pushed the heavy crashing carts and forced the gate of Jianzhang Palace step by step, and after countless loud noises, the palace gate burst open. Although Yan Fei commanded the soldiers to fight back hoarsely, but in front of the attacking Shu Han army, they were trapped in the palace and ravaged for more than ten days, and the Wei soldiers who were terrified every day had lost the will to fight.

Yan Fei was dragged to Wei Ba by the collar by Zuihou. He obviously hadn't slept a single sleep in the past ten days, skinny, his eyes were blank, his eyes were bloodshot, and when he fell in front of Wei Ba, he only said one sentence: "I just want to die." And he lay on the ground and did not move again.

Wei Ba frowned: "Since you are begging for death, Weishenme died in the palace without fighting just now." What kind of loyal servant came to me? ”

Yan Fei sighed and was speechless, so he had to close his eyes and pretend to be unconscious. To say that he is not afraid of death. That must be fake, the reason why he refused to surrender was not only the backbone of the scholar, but also the fear of affecting his family. Now captured by Wei Ba. He has done his best, even if Wei Ba kills him, the court will be able to treat his family well in the future. At least to commend it to show the emperor's grace. It stands to reason that if Wei Ba wants to win over people's hearts, he will treat him with courtesy, even if he doesn't surrender, he won't abuse him too much, at least he won't kill him.

But he didn't expect it. Wei Ba will come to such a sentence.

"I won't kill you, but I won't let you go, I'll put you in prison." Wei Ba waved his hand and asked people to take Yan Fei down. For such a grumpy celebrity, it is useless to say anything now. It will only fuel their temper, lock him up for a few months, and then put out the fire.

Walking into the messy Jianzhang Palace, Wei Ba felt sorry for the buildings that had existed for three hundred years, but Zuihou had destroyed them in his hands. However, the others did not have this kind of sad cultural feelings at all, they were only excited, and took the Jianzhang Palace, and the Wei army in Guanzhong was basically cleared. As for centuries-old buildings, if they are destroyed, they will be destroyed, it is not a big deal.

So when they walked to the tall gilt copper plate, Zhao Su was the first to cry out in surprise: "Join the army, you have money." ”

Wei Ba didn't understand what it meant for a while. "What's rich?"

"Joining the army, it's all money." Zhang Wen pointed to the Chenglu plate, and there was no trace of the immortal wind dao bones that a cultivator should have, only the yellow gold.

"What do you mean......"

"Join the army, turn this copper plate into a copper plate, and you can mint countless money." Zhao Su couldn't wait to walk up, touched the stone base of the copper plate, and looked up, as if he saw a windfall from the sky. "I can't imagine such a big dew plate, why didn't the Red Eyebrow Army take it? Oh, I see, it must be too big for them to move. Look, there's still a slash on it. ”

Wei Ba was speechless, why don't these people have any awareness of cultural protection?

In fact, he really misunderstood, and people in these years have no sense of protection. In Chinese history, after the change of dynasty, it is polite not to dig your ancestral grave, and the buildings of the previous dynasty, if they cannot be reused, are usually destroyed, and in order to vent anger or other reasons, it is not uncommon to burn the relics of the previous dynasty. In the eyes of Zhao Su, Zhang Wen and others, these huge copper plates have no other meaning except for a windfall.

"Gongpu, there is one thing, I want to discuss it with you, don't always think about getting rich." Wei Ba dragged Zhao Su away, and Zhao Su was dragged by him to stumble, losing face, and almost in a hurry. However, Wei Ba's next words immediately made him turn his anger into joy. "We've already taken Guanzhong, but as you can see, those people won't cooperate with us. Although the Heavenly Masters and Daoists are loyal, their ability to govern is not enough, you see, can you recommend some people who can serve as county magistrates and other official positions? ”

"Of course you can." Zhao Su stroked his palm, and he couldn't close his mouth with joy: "I won't tell you, join the army, if you don't talk about it, I will take the initiative to mention it." You say, how many people are needed? ”

"You know this better than I do." Wei Ba said with a smile: "You can't change it all, you must always leave some people as an example, so as not to cause a backlash." In this way, the county magistrates of each county will be changed by half, Jingzhao Taishou, you will concurrently serve for the time being, Feng Yi, Fufeng, you recommend candidates, I will send a report to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and ask Prime Minister Zhuge to make a decision, how about it? ”

Zhao Su smiled and nodded again and again. The three counties in Guanzhong, he has already occupied one county, and the next two counties, if nothing else, can at least occupy another county, of course, if Wei Ba is strong enough, it is good to give all the three Taishou to Hanzhong talents. However, Zhao Su also understood that Wei Ba had not yet turned his face with Zhuge Liang, and the things on the scene still had to be done after all. If there are two Taishou in Guanzhong, the people of Hanzhong should be satisfied.

"Okay, I'll send the news back immediately."

"It's not just the news." Wei Ba stopped him: "I still need a lot of property......"

"If you join the army, you can rest assured, you understand these things, and I understand." Zhao Su pressed Wei Ba's hand and squeezed his eyes: "My old man...... More clearly, you just wait for the good news. ”

Wei Ba nodded knowingly, and the three of them stood among the ruins of Jianzhang Palace, shouting daxiao.
