Chapter 217: Sun Zhihua
Where is Sun Zhihua, the governor of Qizhou who was chased and killed all the way by Wei Ban? In fact, it was under Wei Ban's nose, that is, his old nest when he gathered in the mountains and forests in his early years, Haiyue.
Haiyue, which is 300 miles away from the capital city of Dengzhou, is the name of the official, and it is used to calling it Yishan in the mouth of the green forest ringing horse. This Yishan is not an ordinary place, since Emperor Wu personally sealed the town, all dynasties have been canonized, everyone is one after another, poets, scholars, Li Bingzhong, the prime minister of Great Chu have been here, leaving a large number of poems and inscriptions. It was only later in the year of famine that the government was unable to suppress the bandits, so it was occupied by Sun Zhihua and other bandits.
Since Yishan became a bandit's nest, it is inaccessible here, even the medicine farmer hunter woodcutter does not dare to joke with his own life, the officers and soldiers have also been encircled and suppressed many times, just because the combat strength of the local army in this year is really miserable, but was killed by the horses who occupy the mountain as the king of the crying father and mother, and even turned around to break through a county seat, forced the county order of the place to hang himself, since then, the official army talks about Yishan and the color changes, no one wants to touch this mold, and the matter of suppressing bandits will not be over.
Yishan stretches for more than ten miles, the mountain is high and densely forested, except for the section of the main peak Jade Emperor Peak, the rest of the places are all impassable, if there is no person who is familiar with the terrain to guide the way, ordinary people may not even be able to find the road into the mountain.
At this time, on the top of a hill where Yishan is located, there is a large stockade, which can accommodate more than 5,000 people, and its layout is secretly in line with the art of war, and the secret sentry along the way is quite orderly, plus the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if the officers and soldiers attack the mountain, it is impossible to attack the village without leaving thousands of lives. This is the lair of the Qizhou Xiangma who made Wei Ban helpless.
At this time, in the righteous hall of the village, there were more than a dozen men discussing matters. Most of these men have a murderous aura on their faces, but they are wearing official and military uniforms, and they are sitting in this nondescript righteous hall, looking a little awkward.
The person at the head is handsome, and because of his vassal elegance and three long beards, coupled with the military general's uniform of the second grade, no matter how you look at it, he is dignified and upright, and he should not sit in this righteous hall, but should sit in the military tent of the public court.
At this time, a big man who looked fierce and vicious was chattering, "Damn, after fighting the official army for so many years, the first time I encountered such an evil nature, the two thousand men and horses of our old battalion were scattered in one rush, and hundreds of brothers were killed and injured in one face, Lao Zhang led people to set up an ambush, eight hundred to three hundred, and half of them were beaten alive, and those three hundred people were only killed and injured more than forty people, damn it, these Northwest Army are heavenly soldiers?"
Sitting next to the big man was an old man with gray hair, holding a dry tobacco pouch in his hand, knocking the tobacco pot on the ground and saying, "If you want me to say, this battle can't be fought." ”
Sitting in the second chair was a middle-aged man, dressed as a master, with two whiskers, and a stumbling appearance, which made it difficult not to associate him with the dog-headed master.
The second person in Xiangma, who was eyebrow-eyed and rat-eyed, stretched out his thumb and wiped two whiskers from the left and right, and said: "Da Mengzi and Lao Zhang are right, the Northwest Army is definitely not a frontal enemy that we can fight head-on, according to the students' opinion, it is better to serve their subordinates than to be enemies." ”
Sun Zhihua, the leader, leaned on the back of the chair, put his hands on the armrest of his left hand, and said: "It is said that it is an investment, but in fact, it is also a sale at a price, we have been chased by the Northwest Army during this time, if we go to the service at this time, it is inevitable that we will be looked down upon, and we will not be able to sell it at a good price." ”
The master nodded and said: "What the governor said is true, when we accepted Zhao'an, we were also afraid of the governor of Qizhou first, so we got a deputy general position, if not, I am afraid it is a garrison life." ”
Sun Zhihua smiled and said, "If you want to be a high-ranking official, you must always show some real skills." That General Wei is really a famous and vain man, and he almost forced my grandson into a desperate situation, whether such a character can take a fancy to us or not, this time I am afraid it will be difficult to be good. ”
At this moment, Sun Zhihua suddenly frowned. Just now, he actually sensed a strange aura that flashed away, which made him very vigilant in his heart.
Sun Zhihua can become the governor of Qizhou, naturally not an ordinary Xiangma bandit, back then, he is also a person who can be called in the cultivation world, but when he traveled to Jiangdu, he inadvertently offended Zhang Chongguang, a master of the Sword Sect, and was seriously injured by Zhang Chongguang. After that, Sun Zhihua concentrated on healing while managing this foundation, and after recovering from his injury, he couldn't bear to give up this huge foundation, so he devised a clever plan and acted in a good show of the government's recruitment, and thus became a public person.
Just when Sun Zhihua was stunned, a swordsman dressed in the uniform of a lieutenant ran into the Juyi Hall, knelt down on one knee and hugged his fists and said: "Governor Qiqi, there are soldiers and horses of the Northwest Army who have assembled outside the mountain, and the number is about 3,000 people, it seems that they are going to enter the mountain." ”
Sun Zhihua's expression was unwavering, and he said softly: "This Wei Ban is really not an ordinary person, it came so quickly!"
After hearing the news, the master was already frowning, twisting his beard with one hand, and said bitterly: "If you talk about fighting, our five thousand people have the convenience of the location, but we are not afraid of the three thousand Northwest Army, but since the Northwest Army has found here, then most of them are people who are familiar with the situation in Qizhou, and then there is a steady stream of Northwest Army, how can this be kept?"
Da Mengzi stood up, with a bit of "righteousness and awe-inspiring" on his face, and said: "Governor, as the so-called green mountains are left without worrying about no firewood, let's take advantage of the fact that the Northwest Army has not yet entered the mountains, let's withdraw!"
Sun Zhihua didn't pay attention to him, but fell into deep thought, and said to himself: "Who leaked Haiyue's location?"
A wisp of fresh wind blew into the Juyi Hall, turning into a Taoist in a red robe, and said with a light smile: "Naturally, it was the poor Daoist who informed the general of my family about the whereabouts of the governor." ”
Sun Zhihua looked up suddenly, and a sudden realization of killing intent rose in his eyes, "Qi Yun!"
Qi Yun made a mockery and said with a smile: "It's the poor road." ”
Sun Zhihua took a deep breath, temporarily suppressed the faint killing intent that rose in his heart, and said withholdingly: "Qi Yun Zhenren is a master outside the world, so why mix with the muddy waters of the world?"
Qi Yun smiled and said: "Poor Dao is a mediocre layman, where is what kind of worldly master? ”
Sun Zhihua looked at Qi Yun Zhenren who was leisurely, his face was silent, but in his heart, he had already turned over the river and the sea, he had just used secret techniques to look at the qi, but he couldn't see the depth of Qi Yun Zhenren, if it weren't for this, he would have captured Qi Yun Zhenren a long time ago, where would he talk nonsense!
Qi Yun Zhenren smiled lightly: "Counting the time, General Wei has already personally led his soldiers to climb the mountain, and General Wei is accompanied by Zishuiyang. ”
"Zishuiyang Daoyou is a good blessing, he attached himself to the prince early, and took advantage of the prince's luck to turn into a python to cultivate to a higher level, and if he wants to come for another ten years, he can set foot in the realm of half-step leisure, which is really enviable. But even now, it is not something that Sun Dudu can match with an ordinary heavenly realm that has not yet survived the tribulation of heaven and man. ”
"I'm afraid Sun Dudu doesn't know yet, since the first day you came to Qizhou from Jiangdu, you have been recorded by my Qizhou Daomen, and your every move over the years has been under the control of the poor Dao. ”
"Governor Sun, are you really blind in the Secret Guard Mansion? If it weren't for the poor Dao secretly helping each other back then, you would have been recognized by the Secret Guard Mansion, where could you still sit in the position of the Governor of Qizhou. ”
Sun Zhihua's pupils contracted suddenly, and after years of cultivating his mind, he was almost about to be wiped out, and a violent feeling mixed with horror rose in his heart. If it weren't for the last shred of rational pressure, he would have been tempted to burst out.
The next moment, after calming down, he instinctively wanted to turn around and flee.
His identity was revealed by Qi Yun Zhenren in an understatement, and Wei Ban used such a battle, which made Sun Zhihua feel great fear in his heart, he had already stepped into the realm of heaven and man, where could the world be so big? He didn't want to fight with the Northwest Army, let alone be remembered by the Taoist Sect.
He doesn't want any high-ranking officials now, nor does he want to preserve the foundation that he has worked hard for many years, he just wants to escape from this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
