Zhang Chong continued to walk with the brigade, and in the sparkling carriage and horses, they returned to Mount Tai.

As soon as he came back, Zhang Chong's father began to scold Zhang Chong:

"Second son, you are floating, don't take your life seriously."

said that he was going to beat Zhang Chong, but it was still stopped by Du Man, Zhang Dan and others. Zhao E in the crowd over there also looked at Zhang Chong with a resentful expression. As for the rest of the generals, although they didn't say anything, they also had a little puzzlement on their faces.

Zhang Chong did not take the initiative to explain anything, but took the brothers to the ancestral hall of Houfeng.

This ancestral hall is dedicated to the war dead of Taishan Fang over the years, and on these eucalyptus, there are dense bone clay pots.

Zhang Chong took out the letter box from the bag he was carrying and placed it on a cicadal eucalyptus. Then he turned to the generals and sighed:

"It's a donkey, and I've brought his head back."

The crowd was like Ding Sheng, and immediately spit out:

"Well, this kind of traitor is going to kill him with a thousand cuts. Well done. ”

Many generals also thought the same way, and they all applauded.

Cai Qu and Guo Zu, who had just wrapped up their injuries, listened to Ding Sheng's words and wanted to say something, but when the words came to their lips, they stopped again. After all, if you say a thousand things and ten thousand, this donkey is indeed a traitor.

Over there, Zhang Chong listened to the applause below, sighed, and said to everyone:

"I didn't kill the donkey, he rushed into the enemy line to cover us and was killed by a knife, and when I killed him, he was left with this head."

As soon as these words came out, the generals were wiped out? Isn't the dog a traitor?

After that, I heard Zhang Chong say:

"The dog and donkey are Da Sangli, people have always been very timid and cowardly, if it wasn't for the Cao Yun sent by me, he might not have entered the mountain. I knew that he didn't have the courage to be a daring warrior, so I transferred him to the baggage camp at the beginning, and later to the Holy Treasury. Later, he couldn't bear the hardships in the mountains, and often went out of the mountains to eat and drink in Dongpingling. As soon as I returned to the mountain, I had already given several team leaders to guard the mountain, and they told the dog and donkey to go out of the mountain two or three times every ten years. Where did the dog slave get the money, if you think about it, it should be the greedy holy treasury. ”

Speaking of which, the little father and Du who were in charge of the holy treasury turned white in an instant, and after the dog and donkey had an accident, they strictly inspected the holy treasury, and arrested four or five corrupt treasury officials from the line of the dog and donkey. Originally, I was waiting for Zhang Chong to come back and say this, but I didn't expect Zhang Chong to say it in public now.

Later, Zhang Chong continued to speak:

"Let's not talk about the management of the Holy Treasury, let's also talk about the donkey. Dogs and donkeys often go to Dongpingling, so they naturally attract attention. Since the first battle between Jin's wall and Dongpingling, people have not let us go. After the dog and donkey were caught, they directly told the details of our Taishan thieves. After all, dogs and donkeys are afraid of death, and they are still greedy. Then they used the dog and donkey as bait to trap and kill his comrades. This time, I and Aqo and Azu entered the Dongping Tomb and fell into an ambush, it was this fellow Daoist named Shan Ming who put down the rope at the city gate, and the three of us could live. ”

As he spoke, Zhang Chong pointed to Shan Ming in the crowd with a grateful expression.

Shan Ming betrayed Tang Zhou, so naturally he didn't dare to go back, so he was invited by Zhang Chong, so he came to Mount Tai together.

Zhang Chong not only spoke, but also pulled Zhao E, Cai Qu, and Guo Zu to walk in front of Shan Ming and bow deeply. Shan Ming was scared, and he didn't dare to do it.

Zhang Chong thanked Shan Ming here, and continued to say to everyone:

"Originally, when I touched the donkey, I just hoeed and left. But the donkey said that he was not sorry for the old brother. At that time, I wanted to take him back to the mountain, condemn him to death in front of the brothers, and let him know that he would die. But when the dog and donkey himself rushed into the enemy camp and was slashed by a thousand knives, he left only one sentence before he died, let me bring you a message, saying that he was not a traitor. ”

When this was over, the crowd fell silent.

They don't pinch it, can't this matter be simpler? A good guy is a good guy, and a bad guy is a bad guy. We already know that the donkey is a bad person, and we have hated it for a long time, and now you tell us again, this donkey still suffers? They heard it awkwardly.

But people who are familiar with the dog and donkey, and even those who are not so firm in their hearts, hear the story of the dog and donkey, but they have a relation.

Those who are familiar with the donkey know that the donkey takes a fancy to brotherhood, and his heart is still warm. And those who are not firm in their hearts, they can more or less understand the donkey. Originally, not everyone is so powerful, yes, if this world is not strong, they can't live. But do the weak have to become stronger? So many people are alive and well, but they don't see that they have to go against the court? So this part of the people understands the mentality of the donkey and wants to be an ordinary person.

The generals below listened to it for a long time, and Zhang Chong continued to speak:

"Originally, the donkey died, and it didn't die in my hands, so this book is over. But I have a kind of injustice in my heart, why is the dog and donkey dead, and the donkey and our people are still happy in the city? Does it mean that no matter what, it's us who suffer? Then I'm going to let these ribbons see, if you dare to come and fight with us, I'll kill him. In the end, I broke the Dongping Tomb and forced a 2,000-stone self-immolation. ”

The generals listened to Zhang Chong's previous words, and they still felt strong, yes, the dog and donkey are traitors, and they deserve to die. Shouldn't he who set up a trap to harm dogs and donkeys die? It doesn't make sense.

But when Zhang Chongzhen said that he had killed a 2,000 stone, everyone was silent. Because they know what that means.

Du Man opened his mouth and glanced at He Kui next to him, wanting He Kui to say something. He Kui sighed, got up and persuaded Zhang Chong:

"Qu Kui, killing some townsmen is not in the way, and Han Ting will not take care of it, and it can't be managed. But now we are directly forcing and killing 2,000 stones, that is a proper rebellion, and it is a rebellion that goes straight to heaven. Over the years, it is not that there has been no rebellion, the former Yizhou Banyu rebelled, and then there was a demon thief Xu Shengyu in the sentence, and then Hepu, Jiaozhi Wuhu rebelled, and Jiangxia rebelled also, as if for a while, traitors arose, and the beacon was in flames. But in reality? Yizhou was rebellious, and Li Hao was too guarded to seek peace; The demon thief Xu Sheng rebelled, and the county Sima Sun Jian was pacified by thousands of people; As for Hepu and Jiaozhi Wuhu, Zhu Jun will seek peace. It can be said that these rebellions were all suppressed by the Han court without exception. So Qu Kui, don't look at the decline of the Hanting River now, but even if they are now, it will be easy to suppress us. ”

He Kui's words made some generals echo him. Many of them were born in front of Qian, and they were born under the rule of the Han Court, and they had a kind of awe for the Han Court. When they are driven to a dead end, they will indeed be willing to cut their bodies, but when they are out of danger, they will begin to shrink up again, and just want to find a stable place to live, this is the nature of the small people.

But some of the generals are refuting, they are generally born in Shanliao, or from rangers, they were originally a group of people who were in danger under the Han court and needed constant struggle to survive, and some of them said if they were depressed:

"Qu, I'm afraid of him, if the Han soldiers dare to come, we will destroy them. With our current strength, who in this Qingzhou dares to offend us? If you want me to say, we don't have to be afraid at all, no matter what, let's hide in this mountain, even if he comes with more soldiers, he will be busy in vain. ”

Zhang Chong nodded, he turned to He Kui and said:

"Shulong, what you said is realistic. No matter how weak Hanting is now, it is not something we can deal with. But at this point, we can only look forward. Many choices in life are sometimes sensible and sometimes impulsive. We can't always guarantee that every decision we make will be successful, what we can do is that since we have done it, we will admit that we will suffer the good and we will suffer the bad. I believe that Seon is not a blessing if he loses his horse. ”

Seeing that everyone didn't understand, Zhang Chong explained:

"In the short term, we broke the Dongping Tomb and killed 2,000 stones, which is a big move. But thinking about it on the other hand, we have gained a huge reputation in the whole Qingzhou, and everyone knows that we dare to do things and do great things. Also, we will be surrounded and suppressed by the Han Court in the future, but the so-called real gold still needs to be refined by fire. A few days ago, I saw Deng Dajiang forging iron in Tieguan, and I had a feeling, that is, this steel never fell off, but was forged by a hammer. Hanting's encirclement and suppression of us will be a beating, if we get through, we are the steel army, if we can't get through, we need to burn in the fire again.

But don't panic, now our forces have an advantage in the entire Qingzhou. If the Han court wanted to encircle and suppress, it would only mobilize local battalions at first. But the county soldiers in Qingzhou are not our opponents at all. Then they will mobilize the elite northern and southern soldiers for the second time. And this move will not come in a moment, and we have enough time to deal with it. In short, I have the confidence to lead everyone to win the final victory, do you believe me? ”

Zhang Chong's words have come to this, and the rest of the generals have knelt down and bowed together:

"Swear to live and die with Qu Kui."

After that, Zhang Chong asked Du Man to count the seizures of the Dongping Tomb, and instructed that the armor be distributed to all armies in time. With this batch of armor battles, the fighting strength of the Taishan side will reach a new level.

At the same time, Zhang Chong also asked about the cloth of the Holy Treasury, and when he learned that there were still tens of thousands of horses, he ordered to step up the preparation of summer clothes for the whole army, and he estimated that the fastest counterattack of the Han Court would be in this summer, so they would have to prepare in advance to make summer clothes for the whole army.

Zhang Chong was also worried about the six hundred craftsmen and one hundred and ten women who came, and told the little father to make proper arrangements, in order to let these people smoothly integrate into the Taishan side, Zhang Chong also suggested that the little father could hold a bonfire party at night, so that everyone could relax.

This time, Zhang Chong's greatest wealth was these six hundred craftsmen. It can be said that at this moment, Dongpingling has lost the ability to continue manufacturing, in addition to some Haoqiang Wubao and some craftsmen, Dongpingling officials and craftsmen have basically been wiped out by Zhang Chong.

Originally, Zhang Chong's establishment of the iron official office was actually a role of technical reserves, but now that these craftsmen have made up for it, his Taishan manufacturing capacity has directly risen.

After explaining this, Zhang Chong fell ill, he was really sick.
