Chapter 262: Linghu Zhi
Zhang Jin asked the hundred households to find someone, and he returned to the tent to rest.
They traveled lightly and did not even have a stove. Inside the tent. Just piled up with firewood and lit a bonfire.
Zhang Jin and the remaining hundred households sat down around the bonfire, first adding a little wood to it, and then stretching out a pair of rough and heavy hands to warm the bonfire.
Iron men are also afraid of the cold.
After a while, the hundred households came in with a young man.
"Captain. His name is Wang Ji. Baihu bent over Zhang Jin and introduced.
"Captain." Wang Ji hurriedly bent down and saluted Zhang.
Zhang Jin withdrew his hands and raised his eyes to look at Wang Ji. He is about twenty-five or sixteen years old, and he looks ordinary, but his eyes are very smart and smart.
"I want to send you. As the county commander fox Zhijia slave, he went to contact Liu Pet, one of the two thousand commanders in Shanguangcheng. Do you dare? ”
Zhang Jin withdrew his eyes, did not force it, and said in a consultative tone.
It's all a rabble, and the willpower won't be too strong. If you push people too much, I'm afraid it will be self-defeating, and it's better for you and me to do it.
Wang Ji was stunned for a moment, and when he was called by Baihu, he knew that something was wrong. But I didn't expect such a thing.
If you do this kind of thing, if the matter is revealed, it will definitely not end well.
But after Wang Ji thought about it for a while, he decided to do it.
First, he has an enmity with the Mengyuan people, and secondly, the Wang family currently only has him and his brother, as well as his sister-in-law and nephew.
I heard that General Wu has always been generous to his subordinates, and he will be rewarded for his merits and punished for his mistakes. Wealth and danger are sought. If you can win this vote, it will be a great achievement.
If you lose, there should also be a bereavement pension.
Thinking of this, Wang Ji took a deep breath, his face showed a serious look, and he bent over with his fists and said, "Dare." But I have a request. ”
"Say."
Zhang Jin was still kind and pleasant, and said simply.
"Please send my brother, sister-in-law, and nephew to Beishan Fort. If I die, please be kind to them. Wang Ji sincerely pleaded.
Zhang Jin's face moved slightly, and he glanced at Wang Ji deeply. Then he smiled and said, "Don't worry." You're not going to die. Even if there is a case, your family will receive a pension. ”
"Captain Xie's words." Of course, Wang Ji didn't want to die, but he also knew that Zhang Jin's words were just to comfort himself.
"Alright. I'll tell you about the situation in Linghu Zhi's house, and you must keep it in mind. Zhang Jin said in a deep voice.
"Hmm." Wang Ji nodded and pricked up his ears to listen.
Immediately, Zhang Jin told Wang Ji what he knew about the situation in Ling Huzhi's house. Then, secretly sent someone to send Wang Ji away.
After a while, Zhang Jin stood up, glanced around at the ten hundred households, and said: "The mountain roads and snow roads are not easy to walk, we will set off today and feint to attack Guyun City tomorrow." Although it is a feint, it must also show the momentum of a real siege, and it cannot be perfunctory. ”
"Yes." The hundred households bent down in unison in response, and then rushed out and gave the order. Soon after, the tents were all removed, Zhang Jin kicked the bonfire away, strode forward, and led the nine thousand rabble to Guyun City.
Ancient Cloud City.
The snow on the plains outside the city, no one cleared it, and it became thicker and thicker. But the main cross-shaped road, without any snow, exposed the dirt.
In such winters, people's activities almost cease. People in the city stay in the city, and people in the villages outside the city stay in the villages.
Occasionally, people enter and leave the city, and there is no need for the government to clear the road.
But the officials of Guyun City did so. It is to supply the grain and grass ahead. Around Yundang Mountain, Wanyan shows that thousands of Mengyuan soldiers are fat and strong, and their food and drink are supplied by the four cities, and the roads must be kept smooth.
There are few pedestrians on the roads in the city, and even if there are occasional people walking on the streets, they come and go in a hurry.
The prefectural order yamen, inside the hall house.
Zhou Shu, the county commander, wore a black cotton jacket and a bearskin hat on his head, and sat on the main seat, and below him was the county commander Huzhi, and the commanders Xu Min and Lu Gu.
The mountain road is not easy to walk, and now Wan Yanxian has asked the county guards to defend the city, and he has not come down according to the order of the soldiers. How to meet the enemy is all discussed.
Although the guards in the city are Xu Min and Lu Gu, Zhou Shu and Linghu Zhizhi sit firmly in the position of the county commander and the county cheng, and the energy is not small.
Zhou Shu picked up the hot tea on the coffee table, took a sip and put it down, then looked at Xu Min and Lu Gu and said, "Two generals." Wu Nianwei was famous, beheaded four Mengyuan commanders, and killed nearly 5,000 Mengyuan soldiers. I think it's better to close the gates and not engage him in battle. ”
That's what I said. Xu Min and Lu Gu still don't understand, this county order is afraid that they will be high, go out of the city to confront Wu Nian, and eat the scales for themselves.
They smiled bitterly in their hearts, even if you don't say it, we don't dare to go out of the city. Wu Nian Tiger, the Tiger is outside the city, but he wants to kill.
"Don't worry, General Lu and I don't want to cut off Wu Nian's head, and the great dream of making contributions is unrealistic. We will do our best to defend the city. Please also ask for your cooperation in recruiting the militia and supplying food. Xu Min took a deep breath and said with his fists clenched.
Lugu nodded beside him, indicating that he seconded the proposal.
Zhou Shu's face stretched out as if a flower was blooming, and then he turned his head to look at Ling Huzhi, and both of them smiled.
I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, I'm only afraid of pig-like teammates.
Only those who can recognize their own pounds and taels are worthy of living.
These two are good.
"Don't worry, two generals, I will also handle what belongs to me. Let's cooperate with Jin Cheng to defend the city and resist Wu Nian. ”
Zhou Shu's voice was very loud, and because of the excessive force, his face was slightly red, and his breathing was a little short.
Xu Min and Lu Gu smiled slightly, hugged their fists and saluted. After a while, the two of them left. In the hall, only Zhou Shu and Ling Huzhi remained.
"Although the Han people have only been established for a long time, the quality of the army is worrying. But we gave the soldiers enough food and wages, and their morale was high. There were also many bows and arrows in the city. The defense of the city must be peaceful. ”
"Say it again. Wanyan Wanhu is in Yundang Mountain, and after he eats the dragon, he can come back to rescue us. Wu Nian of Beishan Fort, this time it must be stealing chickens and rice. We can rest easy. ”
Zhou Shu showed a smug look on his face and said to Ling Huzhi.
"If you don't sit back and relax, the whole family will die. Lord of the county order, it's better not to be complacent, it's better to be calm. Ling Huzhi shook his head and said seriously.
Zhou Shu's expression froze, his heart trembled, and he nodded heavily.
Now Wu Nian is not only a thorn in the side of the Mengyuan people, but also a thorn in their side.
He was originally a small official in Guyun County, and he knelt and licked the Mengyuan people, plus some forces in his family, so he sat on the throne of the county order.
I thought that Mengyuan people were invincible in the world, lonely and empty. Unexpectedly, Wu Nian was like a cockroach, stubbornly surviving in this ice and snow, and even fractured Jinhuan Mountain.
This is a dangerous thing.
also let officials like himself who have taken refuge in the Meng Yuan people can't be completely proud.
Wu Nianke killed the Liu family because of the plague. If Wu Nian is allowed to gain power, he may kill his entire family of surrendered officials.
We must be stable in our work, and we must not let Wu Nian see the flaws.
Wu Nian must die.
