Chapter 107: Crisis
Soon, Yang Wei understood that this was a yellow scarf from Wancheng who tore off his turban and pretended to be it. But this also has to be checked, and it is necessary to distinguish which group these people belong to, otherwise it will give people an unfair impression.
Moreover, there may still be those who cut off the heads of the captives and put on turbans to take the lead of the army, which must be found out, found out one and punished one by one, and punished in terms of the number of enemies that need to be killed, Yang Wei will not cut off the captives to weaken his strength, and there are not many people with such brains and guts.
Yang Wei said to Bei Zhan: "You go and tell Hu Zhao, let Hu Zhao investigate, and lend him my personal guards." Whoever is pretending to come over, I will find out. There are also those who take the lead in leading the army, and I will find out. The army rested here for three days, and for three days, let him find out for me. Dian Wei, you lead the personal guards to support Hu Zhao. ”
Wancheng is the seat of Nanyang's county administration, Qin Jie returned to Wancheng, renovated the city defense, and appeased the people, which was enough for him to be busy for a while. After the war, Yang Wei was stationed in the camp outside the city for two days, and in the early morning of the third day, Hu Zhao came to Yang Wei with two dark circles under his eyes and reported the results of the pickets in the past two days, which were basically dealt with.
Hu Zhao gave Yang Wei a reasonable figure, the prisoner army lost 73,000 people, and 100,000 people were mixed into the prisoner army, and Hu Zhao had already dealt with it accordingly. It's just that so many people are mixed in, and it is impossible to do it without cover in the captive army, which proves that Taiping Dao is still very marketable in the captive army.
Hu Zhao said: "The influence of Taiping Dao in the captive army is worrying, when I found out who helped these Yellow Turban soldiers, no one was willing to cooperate with me, so what can I do? Moreover, after this war, Zhao Hong's body was not found, and when I checked these prisoners, I did not find any trace of Zhao Hong, which is very strange!"
Yang Wei also frowned, which is also the biggest hidden danger of the soldiers' mutiny in the future. What can Yang Wei do if he finds out? Taiping Dao was originally a branch of Taoism, and he was a die-hard supporter of Taiping Dao and a follower of Taoism, so how could Yang Wei wantonly slaughter his own followers?
After a while, Yang Weicai stretched his brows and said: "Now I can only let it go, as long as all the three Zhang Jiao brothers are exterminated, the Taiping Dao will be self-defeating, and at present, it can only stimulate their greed** to fight against the influence of the Taiping Dao on them." Go and gather them all, and I will speak. ”
Yang Wei stood on the high platform, and the audience was boundless crowded, and thanks to Yang Wei's deep internal strength, otherwise he could only send soldiers to convey it level by level, and the effect was much worse than Yang Wei's direct lecture. The other lieutenants, Guan Yu, Zhang He and others all stood behind Yang Wei and stood solemnly.
Yang Wei habitually cleared his throat and said: "You have performed very well in this battle! Some of you have killed the enemy enough to atone for their crimes, and they have earned a lot of silver, but many more have not yet made war achievements. However, it doesn't matter, there is still one of the biggest battlefields waiting for you, this is the final decisive battle, and there are a lot of achievements! I promise, kill Zhang Jiao, reward 10,000 gold, seal 10,000 households! Kill Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, reward 10,000 gold, seal 1000 households! Kill Qu Shuai, reward 100 gold, seal 100 households!"
"Coaxing" the ground, the bottom exploded, originally heard that there was going to be a decisive battle with the general of Tiangong, and the prisoners who were a little cowering were all excited, and they all wanted to see Zhang Jiao in front of them now, and after chopping, it would become a shortcut for them to be promoted and make a fortune.
And the captains behind Yang Wei looked at each other one by one, Cao Ying frowned even more, Yang Wei's words, if they were heard by people with bad intentions, go to the emperor to give him eye medicine, it would definitely be a big crime with the intention of rebellion.
Is that something that Yang Wei can seal? That is the power that only the emperor has! Yang Wei himself is a nominal Hou Ye! Besides, how can he honor Yang Wei's words! Now on such an occasion, there is no way to question him face to face, everyone is looking at Yang Wei worriedly, is this rising star about to fall from here?
Yang Wei saw the situation below, and knew that the emotions of these captives had been mobilized, and if the die-hard fans of Taiping Dao wanted to mutiny, they had to see if these people who wanted to make war exploits and wanted to go crazy disagreed! Yang Weiwei shouted: "Okay! Immediately pull out the camp and go straight to Yecheng!" After speaking, he turned around and walked down the high platform.
All the lieutenants did not go back to their camp tents to pack their things, and walked towards Yang Wei's tent in unison. Guan Yu and Zhang He didn't follow, they regarded Yang Wei as a god-like existence, and what he said would definitely be fulfilled, and it would be more effective than the holy decree! They didn't doubt anything.
Yang Wei walked into the tent, returned to the main seat and sat down, picked up a cup of cold tea on the desk and took a sip, the bitter taste of tea made him frown. Cao Ying smiled bitterly, does this Yang Degao really not know how much trouble he has caused? Lan Yu also frowned on the side, at this time, he still has the leisure to drink tea!
Yang Wei was the first to speak: "I know what you are worried about. But I had to do it, and things were getting to the point of being critical. It is very likely that Zhao Hong will be mixed in these captive army, and Taiping Dao also has a large market in the captive army, if they can't completely mobilize their greedy **, I think the mutiny of nearly 700,000 people is just around the corner.
Although all the weapons in their hands have been collected, our forces are not enough to completely suppress them, and if they mutiny, it will be a catastrophe for us, and the results of our two battles will be in vain. Now they are facing the supreme leader of the Taiping Dao, and the temptation of money alone is no longer enough to mobilize their greed, I have already thought about it, what is the matter, I will bear it alone, which is why I did not consult with you. ”
Li Zheng stood up and said, "Degao, what do you think of us!" We will name the emperor together!" Lan Yu pulled Li Zheng back, pulled him back to his seat, and said: "Just according to Degao's words! We really can't help much." Before Li Zheng could speak, Lan Yu glanced at him, and Li Zheng swallowed back the words he was about to speak.
At this time, Cao Ying also figured out the joints, and several people said goodbye together and went back to the camp to pack their things.
In the blue jade tent, Li Zheng said to Lan Yu angrily: "Flawless, why don't you let me speak!
Lan Yu said helplessly: "Haoran, you have wronged yourself as a brother, how can I look at Degao unlucky." It's just that we really can't help with this, and if we have to help, we will only help more and more. ”
Li Zheng pursed his lips disdainfully and said, "Hmph!
Lan Yu smiled bitterly: "Brother Wei is telling the truth, with the emperor's emphasis on Degao, he will be fine." But if there are too many people involved, for the sake of the dignity of the royal family, in order to prevent such things from happening, it is impossible for the emperor to avoid the crime of high morality. You're also a smart person, think about it. ”
Li Zheng frowned and thought about it, then his brows stretched, and said, "I understand." ”
