Chapter Thirty-Six: The Five Lakes (Seeking Collection, Seeking Reading)
"Why is this plot so familiar?"
Hearing Ling Wei's words.
Wang Ke couldn't help laughing.
This plot.
It's completely a copy of Sun Ce and Tai Shici!
"Hahaha, the two strong men treat me sincerely, how can I not worry about you? Tonight, the two of you will go by yourself, and tomorrow I will be in the city, waiting for them to come. ”
Wang Ke waved his hand and said very open-mindedly.
When Ling Wei and Gan Meng heard Wang Ke say this, they were very moved, and immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Tomorrow, we will see you with the lord!" ”
……
Next.
The sky was clear.
A red sun rises from the east.
Wang Ke got up from his residence.
After breakfast.
He came to the council chamber of the Assassin's Mansion.
No, then Xiangzhou Sima Liu Chengzhi is already waiting here.
"Liu Yuanjun got up early."
Wang Ke asked with a smile.
Liu Chengzhi bowed and said, "There is nothing to do today, I have come to talk to the general about some situations in Xiangyang City." ”
"It's okay, Liu Yuanjun can talk about it!"
Wang Ke waved his hand and said with a smile.
As he spoke, he invited Liu Chengzhi to sit down.
Not more than a moment.
The soldiers outside the gate sent a file, and it was during this time that the official documents of military and political affairs in Xiangyang City.
Xiangyang City.
Previously, it was the territory of the Chen State.
After the Sui army destroyed Chen.
Xiangyang was then returned to the Great Sui.
So.
At this time, the official documents also had the place name and year name of Chen Guo.
Liu Chengzhi is a fine person, and while explaining to Wang Ke, he changed the place name and year name to the current title.
Under Liu Chengzhi's explanation.
Time flies.
At this time, it was already the early noon.
Wang Ke rubbed his somewhat swollen eyebrows, and said to Liu Chengzhi: "Brother Liu, it's okay left and right, why don't you go outside the city with me to pick up the two generals Ling Wei and Gan Meng?" ”
"Uh...... General, allow the officer to say something that should not be said. ”
When Liu Chengzhi heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said to Wang Ke.
Wang Ke looked at Liu Chengzhi and said with a smile: "Brother Liu, do you think I shouldn't accept those two thieves as generals?" ”
"Exactly."
Liu Chengzhi nodded and said.
Wang Ke explained: "If it is decided today, a hundred wastes are waiting to be rebuilt, if you blindly attack, wouldn't it cost the people's power? I accepted the two of them, just to tell the other green forest heroes that they can be corrected here...... In this way, everyone has joined us, and we have obtained capable soldiers and appeased the local people, so why not do it? ”
"However, these people are all thieves, wild and untamable, and the subordinates are worried that they will disturb military discipline!"
Liu Chengzhi said again.
"Hahaha! Liu Yuanjun is too worried, I will first subdue the heart of the leader, clarify the military law, reorganize the troops, and then subdue the other subordinates one by one, if they are still not convinced by the king, then I will use thunder means, and I will not fall behind. ”
Wang Ke looked at Liu Chengzhi and explained.
Liu Chengzhi listened to Wang Ke's words, nodded his head, and said: "The general's words are right, and they are short-sighted, hahaha!" ”
"Then, how about going to the city gate to greet the two generals together?"
Wang Ke said to Liu Chengzhi with a smile on his face.
After these few days of contact.
Wang Ke is quite fond of Liu Chengzhi, a down-to-earth official who has not been known in history.
Although this person does not have the unpredictable opportunities of Xu Maogong, nor does he have the ambition to hide the world like Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, but he is more practical, but he is a reliable person who handles government affairs.
The two talked.
Let's come to the south gate of Xiangyang City.
After waiting for a long time, I never saw Ling Wei and Gan Meng coming.
It wasn't until noon.
Wang Ke's face was also a little gloomy.
"General, you treat people with sincerity, but this thief is a thief after all, cunning and cunning!"
Liu Chengzhi sighed and said to the young Shangguan.
Wang Ke shook his head and replied to Liu Chengzhi: "Maybe they have something to delay, I will treat them with sincerity, presumably the two generals will not live up to me!" ”
He was talking.
I saw a fast horse galloping on the official road outside the south gate.
Immediately, there was a person sitting, dressed in cloth and wearing a saber at his waist, and shouted loudly: "General Wang Ke! General Wang Ke! I am a scout of Nujiao Village, and now Nujiao Village is in trouble, and the two masters can't escape, so please ask the general to support! ”
"What did you say?"
When Wang Ke heard this, his brows furrowed.
He took a few steps forward and asked the scout.
Immediately, the scout turned over and dismounted, and told Wang Ke everything that happened in Nujiao Village.
……
Originally.
During the reign of Chen Shubao, the queen of Southern Chen.
Because it's mediocre.
As a result, the people are miserable.
So the thieves swarmed and the chaos was terrible.
And the land of Jingxiang is covered with a dense water network.
Naturally, there are many water bandits and cottage forces.
These forces have been fighting for many years, and finally formed an alliance in recent times, called the Five Lakes Chain Village.
This alliance is quite powerful, and it stands tall with the Green Forest Society of the Seven Provinces in the north and the Wanma Ranch in the northwest, and they are all the most powerful underworld forces.
And Ling Wei and Gan Meng, the owners of Nujiao Village, are emerging young talents.
Lin Shihong, the chief scoop commander of the Five Lakes Chain Village, was very optimistic about the two and sent people to win them over many times, but neither of them was willing to surrender.
So, Lin Shihong was secretly angry in his heart, so he quietly planted an undercover agent in Nujiao Village to listen to the movements of Nujiao Village.
Really.
Late yesterday night.
News came out of the undercover agent of Nujiao Village.
said that Ling Wei and Gan Meng were preparing to surrender the officers and troops of Xiangyang City.
When Lin Shihong heard this, he was furious, and immediately ordered several other brave village owners, led 5,000 soldiers and horses, and rushed to attack Nujiao Village, preparing to clear the portal for the green forest in Jingxiang.
But.
Fortunately, Ling Wei and Gan Meng were brave.
also relied on the angry Jiaozhai to be easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Lin Shihong's soldiers and horses could not attack, so they surrounded the stockade.
There was no choice.
Ling Wei sent scouts to Xiangyang City, asking Wang Ke to send troops to support.
……
"I see."
Wang Ke listened to the scout's narration and couldn't help but be secretly frightened.
In the last years of the Sui Dynasty.
Together.
Among them, the most powerful are the eighteen anti-kings.
The next level is the sixty-four smoke and dust.
Although these people are all thieves, they are all extraordinary.
And that time.
Lin Shihong is one of the sixty-four smoke and dust.
It can be seen that its position in the green forest.
"Order, light up 3,000 soldiers and horses, and follow me to Nujiao Village!"
Wang Ke pondered for a moment, and then made a decision,
"General, be careful!"
Liu Chengzhi arched his hand, and immediately arranged his own soldiers, horses, grain and grass and other things.
Not more than a moment.
The soldiers and horses are assembled.
Wang Ke led the army, followed the scouts who came to report the news, and galloped towards Nujiao Village.
Angry Jiaozhai.
It is only more than fifty miles away from Xiangyang City.
Soldiers and horses galloped all the way.
In about two hours, they arrived near the stockade.
Once you get here.
Wang Ke was about to send someone forward to inquire about the situation.
But I heard the sound of hurried horses' hooves.
A horse stabbed through the nearby woods.
This army of soldiers and horses, without armor, looks like thieves at first glance.
But there are four of them.
Wang Ke's eyes narrowed slightly, and under the glance of his gaze, the basic information of the four people appeared in his mind.
[Lei Tong, ninety-three pounds. 】
[Radar, ninety-one pounds. 】
[Lei Ming, ninety-six pounds. 】
[Lei Liang, ninety-two pounds. 】
