Chapter 12: The Hanging of Jerod
The next day, the Governor convened a morning meeting, as usual. This is one of the forms of organizational activities he proposed, that is, everyone squats together in the morning with their own dumplings, reports on the previous day's work, and puts forward suggestions for the next step.
"Envoy, how is the work of receiving new recruits progressing recently?"
"Returning to the Metropolitan Governor, I have recently received three batches of six people, who are learning the lingua franca in cram school, namely Sleeping King Yelujing, Shenggong Fangla, Ghost Hanzo Hattori Zhenghe, Pingyang County Gong Xue Rengui, Princess Anle Li Bao'er, and Liangguo Gong Lanyu."
"Good! Lord Ran, Lord Huang, Lord Zhang, Lord Gao, good birds choose trees to perch. In the light of this Governor's view, it is of the utmost importance to clarify as soon as possible where our army is headed. Zhou Yu took a bite and asked.
"Exactly. What the Governor said was very true. Zhang Jiao agreed.
"Governor, I want to say something from the bottom of my heart." Huang Chao hadn't spoken to Zhou Yu so solemnly for a long time.
"Say it, Brother Huang. What's wrong? Borrowing money? Whole this out! Zhou Yu teased him, this old boy doesn't know what's going on today.
"Dudu, we do have something to say today, let Lord Huang talk about it." Gao Yang put the cake on the stone table, stopped eating, and his face was solemn.
Zhou Yu glanced at Ran Min, and Ran Min also nodded, it seems that the next words have been approved by the rotating leader. Shi Hu, Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu, Fengchen, Liu Yu, Wan Yanliang, Zhu Cang and others all came over.
"Dadu Governor, since falling into the Borderless Land, we have been living and dying together, advancing and retreating together, breaking the death situation, fighting giant pythons, and having a lot of blood, how can we be happy."
"Stop the horn, Brother Huang, get to the point!" Zhou Yu is now a daughter-in-law, and she is not big enough to talk to these people.
"Uh, this... Huang Chao was suddenly interrupted, and his face was a little embarrassed, and he looked at the capital governor and pouted.
"Oh, my big brother Huang, my big brother, don't sell cute, okay? I'm cold, if you have a fart, let it go! "Zhou Yu is really anxious. Ran Min couldn't stand it anymore, so he pulled Huang Chao to sit down, and said to Zhou Yu: "I'll tell you!" “
"Governor, who do you think we are?" Ran Min asked.
"Who? Dead person! Zhou Yu said angrily.
"Yes, dead people. However, some have been here for more than a thousand years, some have been hundreds of years, but it is the first time since we came here, and the first time we feel alive. Ran Min said solemnly.
"Alive?" Zhou Yu sighed, it's good to be alive. His eyes gradually converged, and his body and face circulated in this circle of people. Everyone, everyone's face was filled with brilliant, sunny life.
"But this place doesn't belong to us!" Zhou Yu said in a deep voice.
"Yes, it's borderlands. Who says there can't be a master here? “
"What do you want to do?" Zhou Yu suddenly felt that something was wrong, these grandsons seemed to be digging a pit here.
"Governor, you see that our group is a rabble, we admit it. But we are really a group of people with ideals, we have been killing and killing in the previous life, in this life do you say that we can farm, graze, raise silkworms, and weave cloth? “
"No, and you won't!" Zhou Yu quipped.
"We want to, we want to fight!" Ran Min said firmly.
"What's the way to fight?" Zhou Yuqi arrived.
"We want to build a walled city, go down to the city, attack the fortress, dominate Kuzsia, and finally slaughter Dream City!"
Burst! Zhou Yu was drinking water, and a sip of water sprayed Mrs. Dong with a big face.
Dong Zhuo hurriedly wiped his face with his big sleeves and said, "It's okay, it's okay!" “
"Let me say something that I don't like, guys. We're people who have died once or even a few times, as we all know. War is to the death. If you die here, you will be wiped out, your bones will be scattered, and you will never be able to live again, I don't know. Did you know? Zhou Yu's eyes swept around, and everyone's eyes lowered.
"We are not afraid of death!" Ran Min said.
"Ministers are not afraid of death!"
"The lower officials are not afraid!"
"The last general is willing to fight to the death!"
"Come on, fight to the death, who is going to fight? I don't know who the other party is! Zhou Yu threw half of the cake at Toyotomi Hideyoshi, just hitting him in the face. Toyotomi Hideyoshi hurriedly lowered his head and picked up the cake and blew it, stuffing it into his arms.
"Governor, what do you mean?" Ran Min asked with concern.
"Finished? Let me tell you about it. To be honest, when I come here, I feel like I'm alive again, and I don't want to leave. The Cheche tribe is also very good here. Feng Xian, can you not make trouble? Harmonious and lively, food and clothing, and a beautiful widow with affection, haha! However, good men have ambitions in all directions, don't they? “
"Yes!" The crowd agreed.
"The eldest husband is brave and crowns the three armies, isn't it?"
"Yes!"
"True heroes reign over the world, right?"
"Yes!"
"I'm thinking the same as you do, Brother Ran. What you said to me today is exactly what the younger brother wants to report to the eldest brother, but you said it before I opened my mouth, I really thought of it! Zhou Yu hooked his finger at Toyotomi, Toyotomi took out the dumpling from his arms and handed it over, and the Metropolitan Governor rubbed it on his chest, biting and tearing it.
"Then we'll make a dawn!" The Governor took another bite of the dumpling. "Didn't I say you, Feng Xian, can you not make trouble? Don't you see I'm sensationalizing here? Boss Zhou Yu was not happy, the girl had already come to work for such a while, approached Lu Bu with a twist, and stomped on his feet three times. Yes, everyone can understand that Lu Bu is handsome, and he is the head of the head of the coach with strong martial arts, which is quite favored by the car girl, and there are naturally not a few who come to hook up. But isn't this a meeting? Still such an important meeting! Zhou Yu gave him a blank look when he thought of this, and continued:
"Since we want to dominate, we must have a plan and not fight an unprepared war. You are all my brothers in life and death, friends who are irreversible, please believe Zhou, even in the face of the rain of arrows and guns, you are here, you are not here, I am also there. Unless, I'm dead. However, what I want to say is that our lives are valuable, our lives are valuable, and we are not grass mustards. You are all kings, you are all killing gods, you are all evil spirits in the eyes of the people, and you cannot die easily. Now that you have spoken of your ideals and shared your dreams with me, I would like to say, go and make it happen, and go and pick the brightest star in the night sky. Zhou Yu said that he was sprinkled and sincere. Everyone in the audience also clenched their fists, and the desire to fight burned in their eyes.
Next, everyone discussed some nearby properties, hydrology and the situation of the walled city, especially invited Lai Tuda to explain the surrounding situation, and how to choose a target and how to open up the territory for the next step. Zhou Yu watched a few more girls come over and stomp on Lu Bu, and after the meeting, he walked in front of Lu Bu, looked down at the shoes and boots full of big footprints, and said, "Why don't you find Dr. Liu to bandage it?" “
After that, he paced out and thought about meeting the new ones, and Feng Xian's voice sounded in his ears: "Dadudu, why do they only step on me and not others?" “
"Top-you-a-lung, two goods!"
Hattori Hanzo is a middle-aged man in his forties who does not smile, wearing navy blue tights, a hooked nose and a pointed chin, and a gloomy face. Toyotomi Hideyoshi said that his name was Hattori Masakazu, and Hanzo was his title. Zhou Yu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Do it well!" Lord Guan Bai, this son will first go through your training and experience, and will be incorporated into your command, and this governor will have his own reuse after expanding his military strength in the future. "In front of the newcomers, the metropolitan governor always gives face to the old ministers, and he doesn't call Toyotomi or Fujiyoshiro anymore, just call him Lord Sekihaku.
Most of the Governor had heard a little about the story of the sleeping king Yelu Jing earlier, and this time he really responded to that sentence when he saw him, it is better to be famous than to meet, and it is better not to meet than to meet. From the beginning to the end of the interview, Yelujing was sleepy-eyed and yawning, and he looked like a big smoker, looking at him at best thirty-four or five years old, with a head tattoo, and the black panda with two big bags under his eyes, which were about to fall on his cheeks, and he was hunched over and leaned on the stone pier by the waterwheel, and there was no anger in his eyes.
"This is the sleeping king Yelu Jing!" Fan Er pointed to the paralyzed man on the ground.
"Oh? Brother Yelu, I have admired the name for a long time, and I am disrespectful and disrespectful! Zhou Yupi hugged his fist with a smile.
"Noise!" Yelu Jing turned over and pinned his head to the side, obviously not taking the metropolitan governor seriously at all, this Liaomu genealogy is very big.
"Feng Xian?" Zhou Yu made a gesture of looking for people in four directions.
"In!" Lu Bu rubbed his feet and stepped forward and nodded.
"Hang him up for me!" The Metropolitan Governor pointed at Yelujing with one hand, and smiled at the wooden pole next to the waterwheel.
"Yes!" Lu Bu's characteristic is that he never asks why what the governor says, and he really implements Lu Xun's famous saying: "Life is just four big words, and it's over!" “
Everyone was stunned for a while, Ran Min and Huang Chao hurriedly stepped forward to intercede, what is this grandson's usual virtue, why is he blind dog. The Metropolitan Governor didn't say to let it go, nor did he say that he wouldn't let it go, he still watched with a smile on his whistle as he watched Lu Bu tie up Yelu Jing's five flowers, Yelu Jing's two legs kept kicking in the air, and he scolded in his mouth: "Let Lao Tzu down, who do you think you are?" “
"Who am I? Hehe! The Metropolitan Governor turned around and whispered to Fan Er and Lai Junchen, and the two quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Zhou Yu took a social step, swaying under Yelu Jing, who was tied into a rice dumpling, raised his head and hands to build a pergola, and looked carefully. After a long time, he put his hand down and walked in a circle behind his back. As he walked, he said aloud, "Oh, who am I?" That's a hard question to answer! “
After a while, most of the people of the Heaven-Shaking Alliance and many people from the Cheche clan gathered here, standing on tiptoe, not knowing what the situation was. Fan Er in the crowd nodded to the Grand Governor. Zhou Yu thought to himself, this kid's news is really slippery.
"I am ... Uh, let's put it this way, what are you eating without me? What are you wearing without me? Why are you still stinky and beautiful without food or clothing? Hey, I went to the wrong set. Hehe, see the smile and laugh! Junchen, bring it! Zhou Yu squinted and saw that Lai Junchen had already walked into the venue with an object in his hand, which was the kind of strange whip that had injured him before.
"Smack!" There was a thunderclap in the air, and Jerejing howled like a pig, and the wailing man's heart trembled. Dong Zhuo, who was watching the excitement in the first row, was startled, and shrugged his shoulders and the porridge bowl fell to the ground.
"Smack!" Second whip!
"I'll fuck your ancestors!" Jerez wailed and cursed.
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! "Three whips in a row, the Metropolitan Governor beat him while circling on the ground, in order to beat him in four outer circles, and he couldn't stand the kang at night, otherwise it would not be the Metropolitan Governor's personality if he could sleep peacefully. The law followed by the execution of the Metropolitan Governor is eight words: do not seek the most pain, but seek balance!
The whip had already pulled off two or three catties of Yelu Jing's meat, and the blood that had fallen down the tube of this kid's trousers had drawn several concentric circles on the ground. Some of the Cheche people couldn't stand it anymore and covered their eyes. The four rotating leaders all came up to help plead.
"Dadudu, he is a first-time offender, you see... Zhang Jiao said.
"Yes, Grand Duke, it will kill you if you beat him again." Gao Yang also squeezed over.
The Metropolitan Governor was still smiling, he didn't look at a few people, but turned his head to look at Bai Qi, and asked: "General Bai, what kind of crime should you be guilty of being lazy and slack, refusing to work, and despising your superiors, causing damage to the morale of the army, delaying the fortifications, and resenting those who work too much?" He deliberately dragged out the last few words.
Bai Qi hugged his fists, looked around for a while, and said in a majestic voice: "On the law, you should be killed!" If this thief is in our army, he will be beaten to death with a stick, so as to set an example! “
"Oh, did you hear that? Zhang Xianzhong, did this person give you what you wanted? Zhou Yu shouted at Zhang Xianzhong again.
"The governor laughed, although there is no unscrupulous general under the contemptible seat, he will never accept wine bags and rice bags!"
"It's a bit tricky." The Metropolitan Governor bowed his head in contemplation.
"Smack!" Everyone was waiting for the Governor to continue, but he raised his head and said nothing, and continued to whip earnestly.
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
The blood dripping from the ground was already in pieces, and the corners of his mouth were oozing blood, and the man seemed to faint and closed his eyes.
"I don't know what to do, just keep fighting! Does anyone want this grandson? Which department wants, squeak before I smoke him to death! The Governor said.
The whip made a crisp sound, and the heart of the person who smoked it gurgled, and the barb hurt when he thought about it. Suddenly, a voice came.
"Stop fighting, Governor, stop fighting. I'll take this old boy. Running over with a sigh of relief, Zhou Yu saw that it was Dr. Liu, and finally came to pick up the man, so that the play of the Metropolitan Governor could be performed completely.
"Yohe, isn't this Commander Liu?" Zhou Yu is actually full of surprises, the hall is full of princes and uncles, but this twenty-eight boy came out to stand up, how can it not be surprising?
"Governor, don't fight, Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang is short of manpower under the little throne, why don't you let me go there?" Liu Yu said with a smile on his eyebrows.
"Take this turtle grandson well, Commander Liu. I will find out again that he has no military discipline and no concealment, so I will let General Bai execute him on my behalf. "The Metropolitan Governor wants to sell his favor, whoever finally accepts Yelu Jing will also accept his gratitude, but I didn't expect to let Liu Yu, this kid, take advantage of him in the end, Zhou Yu smiled bitterly.
As soon as the Governor rolled up the whip and handed it to Lai Junchen, a charming voice came from his side, and then everyone smelled a burst of peach blossom woman's body fragrance. "An happy greeting to the Governor and the four adults!" Zhou Yu turned his head and looked at it, and his heart was shocked, a woman in gorgeous clothes made a blessing ceremony. This princess Anle really lives up to her name, with willow eyebrows and starry eyes, high buns, heroic posture, only a little powder is better than a hundred flowers, and the thin body of the ring fat swallow is plump and straight, and it can be seen that the eyes of a group of old men have fallen out.
"Well said, well said." Seeing that the beautiful lady Dadu Dudu's mood just now also became very good, and his mouth was split and he couldn't close his smile.
"Shameless!" Samanda took a sip next to her.
"Shameless!" Sally glanced at Princess Anle's half-exposed breasts and cursed. Most of the women in the car have their breasts tied, which is more convenient to keep their bodies clean in the yellow sand.
"Shi Hu? Director Shi? Zhou Yu turned back to find someone.
"Xiao Wang is here!" Shi Hu was actually a little depressed that he didn't rob people just now, looking at the current situation, which department has more robbers, which department can become the first to eat crabs and the first batch of people to get rich in the early stage of reform.
"Princess Anle will be assigned to the office and will be dispatched by you. Luckily? “
"Very good!" Shi Hu and his children all fell into Dong Zhuo's porridge bowl, and Dong Zhuo hurriedly tucked the bowl into his arms.
"Governor Xie and the four adults, retire in peace!" The wind chime-like voice knocked on a group of old men's hearts, soft and soft.
"Metropolitan Governor, grass people Fang La!" A stout, dark-skinned, peasant-dressed man fell to one knee with his hands clenched into fists.
"Hurry up, the Holy Father is courteous." Zhou Yu has always been full of respect for these peasant rebels who dared to revolt in order to survive, oppose power and slavery, and put life and death aside. This is true for Zhang Jiao, this is true for Huang Chao, and the same is true for Fang La and Zhang Xianzhong.
"Black teeth are often the same, Brother Fang La, for the time being, will be under your command."
"The next official has an order."
"Metropolitan Governor, not Xue Rengui!" The next thing that caught my eye was a white-robed young general, not tall, holding a red tassel gun, heroic and high-spirited, and his heroic and terrifying face revealed a mature and old way that did not match his age.
This is a generation of famous generals Xue Rengui? Zhou Yu couldn't help but look at him carefully, looked around twice before and after, and was very satisfied.
"Yes, yes! Heroes out of teenagers, teenage heroes! The Governor gave a thumbs up.
"General Bai, Xue Rengui has been incorporated into your army and served as the commander of the vanguard army, okay?"
"Very good!"
"Xue Rengui thanked the Grand Governor!"
In the end, there was one person left, wearing heavy armor, an eagle's beak helmet, and auspicious cloud boots, and each hand held a shoulder-length mountain axe, and the tip of the axe was on the ground and crossed. Zhou Yu and a few people surrounded him, but he just nodded slightly, which was considered to be a visit.
"You're Sappy?" Zhou Yu saw that he didn't speak, so he asked first.
"Exactly!"
"Liangguo Gong Lanyu?"
"It's useless to have a false name, only those who deceive the world and steal their reputation!" These people have long known the nickname they received after their death in the underworld, and they have been used to hearing others say it for a long time.
"And what is useful according to General Lan's eyes?" Zhou Yu wanted to test him with his hands behind his back.
"Kill, kill, kill, blood sacrifice to the country, reign in the world!" Lan Yu doesn't talk much.
Oh, Zhou Yu rubbed his chin and thought to himself, this person is John Wick, and he will definitely be very useful in the future. However, it is said that Lan Yu later became a master, and was stripped of the human skin by Zhu Yuanzhang and given to his daughter Princess Shu, and later Zhang Xianzhong got this human skin, and I don't know if it is true or false.
"Zhang Xianzhong?" The Governor deliberately called out to him.
Zhang Xianzhong came over timidly, with a little horror in his eyes.
"What, Grand Duke?"
"This person is under your command and is the commander of the vanguard army!" The Metropolitan Governor said categorically.
"Huh? Be! Zhang Xianzhong's scalp was a little numb, and Zhou Yu caught these messages with sharp eyes, it seems that the rumors are true.
