Chapter 1575 - It's Just a Rabble
Zuo Ci didn't dare to respond to Liu Wei's words.
Although he was coerced by the thieves to stay in the mountains, it can be said that he is also an accomplice of the thieves after all.
In case of a mistake, what he has to bear is likely to be Liu Bian's anger, and the head on his neck may fall to the ground at any time.
Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, this is the truth.
Staring at Zuo Ci, Liu Wei didn't say anything for a long time, and after a long while, he grinned, patted Zuo Ci lightly on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I don't plan to kill you!" ”
Although Liu Wei said so, Zuo Ci was still apprehensive in his heart.
After all, the person in front of him is the current emperor.
The emperor only said that he had no intention of killing him for now, but he did not say that he did not plan to kill him in the future.
Once he annoys the emperor, he can't tell when his head will fall to the ground.
Leading the team slowly, Liu Wei would look around from time to time.
Wang Zhen, who was riding behind him, kept his eyes on the surroundings.
Let go of those who were captured, Liu Wei's identity will definitely reach the ears of the thieves, and what they are waiting for is that the thieves think they can take advantage of Liu Wei and the others to attack them.
Liu Wei expected to think well, let those people go, and sure enough, it didn't take long for the news to reach the ears of Lao Liu and others.
In the mountains and forests, a group of men sat in a circle, and the bearded eldest brother looked very flustered, and asked the men beside him: "Since the emperor is here today, his guards are amazing, no wonder my brothers and other brothers secretly ambushed, but they did not hurt them, but they were killed a lot!" ”
"Isn't Big Brother Mo afraid?" As soon as the eldest brother's words fell, the sixth child turned his head to look at him and asked lightly.
"What does the sixth mean?" His question obviously angered the eldest brother, who frowned and asked him angrily, "Who do you say is afraid?" ”
"Big brother is not afraid, why didn't he see that this is the perfect opportunity for us to subvert the big man?" Smiling slightly, the sixth said to the men: "Now that the emperor has arrived in this mountain forest, there are only a hundred guards beside him. With only a hundred people, we instigated a thousand people to secretly ambush, even if there were ten emperors, they could be killed on the spot! ”
"Kill the Emperor?" His eyes widened suddenly, and the eldest brother asked the sixth brother: "Even if it happens, the world will be chaotic immediately, what good is it for me to wait?" ”
"Fishing in troubled waters!" Still with a faint smile on his face, the sixth man continued: "As long as we kill the emperor, we can take advantage of the situation to recruit soldiers and horses, and achieve a great cause in this troubled era, it is always better than being a strong man under the rule of a horseback emperor!" ”
Lao Liu's words made everyone say nothing.
The men looked at each other one by one, not knowing what to say.
It was a decision they made early on to be enemies of the Han court, but at this moment, they found that deep down, they still had an inexplicable fear of the court.
Seeing that everyone was silent, the sixth man frowned and said to them, "What are your intentions?" Do you want to kill the emperor and get a piece of the pie in the troubled times? ”
Silence, deathly silence,
The men who sat in a circle did not say a word, and after a long while, the eldest brother stood up, waved his hand, and said to the men: "It's done!" The sixth is right! If I get entangled like this again, if I want to kill the emperor in the future, I'm afraid I won't have a chance again! After all, it will be a death, it is better to fight with the emperor to break the net! ”
"Good!" With the eldest brother's words, all the men made up their minds and responded.
Seeing that the men had all responded, Lao Liu beckoned to a few people not far away.
A man with a blue cloth wrapped in a blue cloth on his head ran towards them, and when he arrived in front of the men, the man with his head wrapped in a green cloth bowed down with his fists, waiting for the sixth child's command.
"Gather everyone in one place, and tonight, I'll do something big!" After giving a command to the man, the sixth waved his hand.
The men who were dormant in the mountains and forests made a plan to raid Liu Bian, and Liu Bian, who led the team to march slowly in the direction of Taojiazhuang, ordered the team to camp on the spot as soon as it was close to dusk.
The place where the team camped was chosen was on the bank of the creek.
The setting sun shines on the surface of the river, and the river ripples with a golden glow, flowing downstream.
Standing on the bank of the river, looking at the flowing river, Liu Wei's face was solemn.
"But think of the dead bodies drifting in the river?" Standing behind Liu Wei, Wang Zhen asked him softly.
"Although they have opposed the thieves in the mountains and the court as enemies, they have also been thieves!" Shaking his head, Liu Wei said lightly: "What I'm thinking about is just that in this world, there are too many people with ill intentions. Now they have no worries about food and clothing, but they are still uneasy about the status quo, intending to disrupt the world, I really don't know what they are thinking in their hearts! ”
Liu Wei said such a thing, which made Wang Zhen sigh.
At the time of the second emperor Huan Ling, the people were not happy, starvation was everywhere, and the Zhang Jiao brothers raised the Taiping Road, also because the people had no food to eat and no clothes to wear, but now the Han Dynasty under the rule of Liu Wei was leveled in the four seas, in addition to the south, Jingzhou and Jiangdong were not under the rule of the Han Dynasty, and there was no war, but there were so many people with bad intentions, who were always thinking about messing up the world!
Liu Wei couldn't understand what these people were going to do, and Wang Zhen couldn't understand it either.
"Majesty!" The two looked at the flowing river and were thinking about things, when a guard dressed in the people's dark clothes came behind them, clasped his fists and bowed to Liu Wei and said, "The meal is ready, please dine!" ”
Glancing back at the guard, Liu Wei waved his hand at him and said to him, "I'm not hungry, you wait and eat!" ”
Hearing that Liu Wei didn't plan to eat, the guard looked at Wang Zhen with a hesitant expression.
waved his hand at him, signaled him to retreat, and waited until the guards left, Wang Zhen said to Liu Wei: "Your Majesty, there may be a big battle tonight, or eat some food......
"Have you seen the yellow scarf?" Before Wang Zhen finished speaking, Liu Wei suddenly asked her this question.
Stunned by Liu's questioning, Wang Zhen nodded and said, "The last general has also seen the yellow turban back then, but I don't know why His Majesty asked such a question?" ”
"I fled from Luoyang back then, and I also led the soldiers and horses to fight with the Yellow Turban!" Looking at Xiaohe, Liu Wei said to Wang Zhen: "Back then, the soldiers and horses under my command were much worse than they are now!" But every time you meet a yellow scarf, you can be a hundred, do you know why? ”
Still didn't understand the reason why Liu Wei said this, Wang Zhen shook his head and said, "The last general doesn't know!" ”
"The Yellow Turbans are just a rabble, they gather in one place, and every time they fight with the officers and soldiers, they always win with more people!" A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Liu Wei said to Wang Zhen: "Now what we have to deal with is some You Yong who is not even as good as the Yellow Turban, even if they have three or five thousand people, these hundred guards under my command are enough to deal with it!" ”
Liu was full of confidence, and Wang Zhen did not interrupt him, let alone object.
has fought with those men with green cloth wrapped in their heads, and Wang Zhen also feels that those people don't have much combat power at all.
Even if they succeed in ambushing, as long as the guards hold the first wave of attack, they can launch a counterattack against them with dozens of times fewer than them!
The reason why he dared to expose his identity, Liu Wei probably saw this layer!
"I don't eat it, but I really don't have an appetite right now!" Taking a deep breath, Liu Wei's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said lightly: "If we hadn't come to Taojiazhuang, it would have been impossible to encounter such a thing, and I would never have known that outside Luoyang City, there was such a group of people, who not only deceived the people, but also gathered in the mountains and forests, intending to subvert the imperial court!" ”
"With such wolf ambitions, how can I tolerate him?" Clenched his fists tightly, and when he said the back, Liu Wei was already gritting his teeth.
Wang Zhen still didn't say anything.
She didn't need to say anything, she only had to do one thing, that is, when the thieves came, she stayed by Liu Bian's side and didn't let Liu Bian get even the slightest injury.
The two guards who had left the mountain on Liu Wei's orders had come down the mountain and galloped all the way down the mountain.
Before evening, they rushed to Luoyang City.
When they entered the city, they rode their horses and rushed straight to the military camp in the city.
The barracks, which had not received a battle report for many days, was quiet, and there were not many soldiers walking back and forth in the camp.
Seeing two men in deep clothes riding their horses and rushing towards the camp gate, the two Han soldiers guarding the gate were about to step forward to stop them, and one of the guards on horseback shouted loudly: "Palace guards, get out of the way!" ”
Hearing the guard's shout, the two soldiers who had wanted to step forward to stop them hurriedly got out of the way and watched the two fast horses rush into the barracks.
Entering the barracks, the two guards turned over and dismounted, and shouted to the soldiers who were looking at them not far from them, "Who is the general on duty today?" Your Majesty has a decree, please take the decree quickly! ”
The guard's shouting made the soldier dare not delay, and hurriedly ran towards the general's barracks.
The one who stayed in the barracks was none other than Gan Ning.
Knowing that Liu had made a decree, and hearing that the two people who came to deliver the decree were in a hurry, Gan Ning did not dare to delay, hurriedly left the barracks, and ran towards the place where the two guards were with the soldiers who reported the news.
Seeing Gan Ning running over, two guards took out their waist cards from their waists and flashed them at him, and one of the guards said: "General Gan, Your Majesty is now in Pishan, and I have encountered Pishan bandits, and the two of us have come to ask the general to send troops to clear it quickly!" ”
"There are thieves in the mountains?" Seeing the waist cards of the two guards, Gan Ning had already confirmed their identities, and when he heard that Liu Wei had ordered him to send troops to Pishan, he was stunned for a moment, and asked the two guards: "How is Your Majesty?" ”
"Your Majesty is dealing with thieves!" One of the guards clenched his fists and said to Gan Ning: "I implore the general to send troops immediately, there are less than 100 people beside Your Majesty, if it is too late, I am afraid that something will happen!" ”
