Wangwu Mountain.

The snow is covered and the mountain roads are already steep, but now they are even more difficult to walk.

In this kind of weather, not to mention any knight, even a warrior cannot enter the mountain.

Wang Yuan was wearing a thick winter coat, the whole person was almost wrapped into a bear, it was very difficult to walk in the snow, every step was directly into the snow, the snow almost reached the knees, in the face of such a situation, Wang Yuan was not angry at all, but laughed.

"The traitor's soldiers and horses are millions of people, and in such weather, they can't go up to this Wangwu Mountain!"

Behind him was a dozen people at the moment, all dressed thickly dressed and fully armed.

And beside him, there is a strangely dressed person, his felt hat is not the dress of the Han people, there is also an animal's tail around the waist, and the lower clothes are mainly fur, a Hu people's dress, but his appearance is no different from the Han people.

He said: "Over the years, the snow has been getting heavier and heavier, and this year's heavy snow is a mountain covered by snow that I have never seen before, and it is difficult for people and animals to walk. ”

This man speaks a Hexi dialect.

Wang Yuan said very seriously: "It's all because the destiny of heaven is ours!" ”

"Mrs. Guo is under the edict of His Majesty, leading us to crusade against the traitors, so God blesses him."

The people who followed Wang Yuan, when they heard this name, their expressions were different, those who had followed Wang Yuan were somewhat helpless in their eyes, while the rest of the people were full of longing in their eyes.

When the strangely dressed man heard this, he was silent for a long time and did not refute it.

Wang Yuan led everyone to a camp.

When the people outside the camp saw the crowd, they hurriedly bowed to each other, and the two of them saluted differently, one bowed big and the other bowed flat.

Of course, it's good that thieves can do this kind of thing.

There were many huts in the camp, and many people came in and out, and a few people were gathered in the open space, holding sharp knives, cutting the flesh of the prey, and everyone was very busy.

As far as the eye can see, there are hundreds of people in the entire camp.

Wang Yuan led them to the main tent.

When they walked in, Guo Zezheng was sitting in the tent, he was also dressed thickly, kneeling in front of a dilapidated desk, both in appearance and temperament, completely different from others.

Wang Yuan hurriedly bowed and greeted, "Mrs. Guo! ”

The men who had followed him in also bowed together.

Hearing this title, Guo Zhi's face twitched.

Wang Yuan called himself a general, and sealed all the people under his command to four expeditions and four towns, which in Guo Zhi's opinion, is simply child's play!

When he expressed a strong protest, Wang Yuan suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly gave him the official title of Taifu, and said that he would be the leader.

After escaping into Wangwu Mountain, Wang Yuan successively gathered seven or eight groups of thieves.

There is also a gap between thieves and thieves, those who only dare to kill people and overlook goods see these rebellions, of course, they will bow their heads and dare not say anything, after all, Wang Yuan and these people are armed with strong crossbows, and they are all fierce and vicious, these thieves with sticks, where do they dare not obey?

What's more, Wang Yuan still has the trump card of Guo Zhi in his hand.

Here's the thing, in the entire Taihang Mountain Range, there are countless homeless thieves, and the vast majority of thieves are from Yongliang.

Liangzhou since the end of the Han Dynasty after the Qiang Rebellion, has never been calm, after the Qiang Rebellion there are warlords in the melee, after the warlord melee there is the Wei Shu War, until now, here is still the most chaotic place in the world, the people have died countless deaths, upside down, miserable.

In this case, the commoners who lost their land and wealth had two choices, the first was to defect to the powerful or the big clan to become "tenants", in fact, the commoners of this period were not even tenants, they were complete serfs, and the second was to hide in the mountains to escape the persecution of wars and temples.

Confucius's harsh government and tiger are the best evaluation of the life of the people of Liangzhou.

Whenever there are troubled times, the population is sharply reduced, and after reunification, it can be restored to a very outrageous level in just a few years, not because the people are too promising, but because those who hid in came out.

There are too many people hiding like this in the Taihang Mountains, although they live a very hard life and are accompanied by fierce beasts, but they don't bully their officials, and that's enough.

And Guo Zhi, in addition to being the emperor's anti-auxiliary order, he also has another identity.

Xiping Guo's.

The people of Liangzhou have a very special hometown plot, which is even stronger than that of the Kanto people.

In the Western Han Dynasty, the Kansai people looked down on the Kanto people, but in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it became the Kanto people to discriminate against the Kansai people, and the Liangzhou people were the most discriminated against, and the Central Plains people felt that these people lived together with the Hu people, and their living customs were no different from the Hu people, and they were rude and rude, and there were even ministers in the late Han Dynasty who threatened to give up Liangzhou and kick Liangzhou out of the territory of the Han Dynasty.

In this case, the people of Liangzhou can only hold themselves together.

When the Central Plains was fighting with the warlords of Liangzhou, the people of Liangzhou basically stood on the side of their own families.

The Guo family, a big family, is an inconspicuous existence in many families in the Central Plains, and not many people look up to them at all, but in Liangzhou, they are also a big family, like Guo Xian, who also served as Wuwei Taishou.

Liangzhou has always had the habit of catching a celebrity as a leader during a rebellion, and this time, with a ready-made leader, they naturally came to defect one after another.

This made Wang Yuan very happy, so he gave him the so-called official title of Taifu, claiming to be headed by him, and invited the thieves in the mountains to come and defect.

Guo Zhi's heart was unspeakably helpless.

But of course, he also knew that it was too late to regret it.

He waved his hand and told the crowd to get up.

Only then did Wang Yuan pull the people around him in front of Guo Zhi and said: "Taifu, this person is called Qi Lai, he is from Nan'an, I heard that you are here, and I specially came to defect."

Guo Zhi hesitated for a moment, and then nodded towards the man, he could be regarded as having seen it.

Qi Lai hurriedly said: "I heard about your prestige earlier, and I came here to defect, just to kill the national thief with you and do something big!" ”

Wang Yuan immediately said: "Taifu, since this person has such ambitions, why don't you keep him by your side?" He was also a fierce general in Liangzhou in the past, and there were many brave men under his command, if he got their help, it would be like a tiger with wings! ”

Hearing this, Qi Lai's face turned red, in fact, he was a pavilion chief in Nan'an at the beginning, and later because it was not good to catch thieves, he wanted to be arrested and questioned, so he took four pavilion guards to hide in the mountains, and collected some thieves, and now there are more than 60 people under his command, all of whom are old, weak, sick and disabled.

Guo Zhi understood what Wang Yuan meant, and asked helplessly: "Then what kind of official position does Wang Jun think should be given?" ”

"Since he is a fierce general in Liangzhou, he should naturally be a general in Pingxi!"

Guo Zhi's face twitched again, General Pingxi??

Just the one in front of you??

However, thinking of the official position of the Taifu on his body, Guo Zhi sighed again, "Okay, then take General Qi as the general of Pingxi, add the title of Marquis of Annan, and command his own army, hoping that the general can kill the national thieves, Kuang Fu Sheji, and die for His Majesty!" ”

Qi Lai's face turned even redder, and there was almost fire in his eyes.

General Pingxi?? Hou Annan??

What I call this is different from what I call it.

What if something big happens?

He hurriedly saluted towards Guo Zhi's possession, "The last general is ordered!" I will definitely do my best to punish the thief!! ”

"Okay, get up, give the general the right to open the mansion today, and the general can arrange his own subordinate officers and appoint officers under his command"

"Thank you, Taifu!!"

The general Wang Yuan personally sent General Pingxi out of the Taifu Mansion, and ordered General Zhendong to follow him, so that General Pingxi could integrate his army and come to defect.

General Zhendong had no choice but to hand over the slaughtering knife in his hand to General Zhengbei, instructed the two captains to watch the gate, and then followed General Pingxi out of here.

Wang Yuan returned to the camp tent and said with a smile: "Your reputation is still the most effective, there are more and more General Qi's men and horses, and there will be more and more in the future, and by next year, I am afraid that there will be thousands of people under our command!" ”

Guo Zhi glanced at him, "County Lieutenant, don't forget, the more people under your command, the more it will arouse the vigilance of the temple, if there are really thousands of people, the temple will definitely send heavy troops to crusade, although this deep mountain is big, but you will not feel too good." ”

"Besides, just these people, no one trains them, and they don't have weapons in their hands, how can they fight with the army of the temple?"

"You have tens of thousands of people, but you are just hiding in the deep mountains and old forests, wasting your time, the original army of Montenegro, not tens of thousands? But what storm can they set off? ”

Hearing Guo Zhi's words, Wang Yuan was not angry at all.

"If it is a peaceful world, gathering people and horses in the mountains and forests, there is naturally no way to get ahead, but in this situation, can the world be peaceful?"

"Wang Wushan can directly kill Heyin, and you can force Luoyang!"

"I'll gather people here, if Sima Shi comes to crusade, I will disperse, let my subordinates lead their troops to flee, and when Sima Shi returns, I will gather them again!"

"If there is a change in the world, then I will send troops to Heyin and go straight to Luoyang!"

Hearing Wang Yuan's words, Guo Zhi sneered, "Now there are only more than 100 people, and it will be fine, but if there are really thousands of people, tens of thousands of people, just their food, clothing, housing, transportation, food supply, and management arrangements are not something you can do, what should you do when the time comes?" ”

Wang Yuan looked at him, "Isn't there still you?" We are all headed by you, and if it really comes to that point, it will naturally be you who will govern it. ”

"Don't worry, if you feel that there are not enough talents, I will go down the mountain, kill into the county, grab a few people who can read and write, and let them help you manage!"

On the bank of the river, Yin Damu rode a horse and looked out at the mountains and ravines in the distance.

In these days, he has suppressed the rebellion inside and outside Yin, Henan, and most of the officials who brutalized the people have been arrested.

Because of the heavy snow sealing the mountain, the crusade against Wang Yuan and Guo Zhi was also temporarily suspended.

I have to go back to Luoyang.

When he returned to Luoyang, he still had to take the initiative to ask for his life and ask himself to eliminate the traitor.

Otherwise, if Sima Shi sent someone else to crusade, he was afraid that Guo would really be wiped out.

Yin Damu still admires Guo Zhi, he actually has such courage and determination.

He was looking forward to the day when he would be a courtier.
