Chapter 416: Zhang Lu's ruthlessness
Ma Fan and the other three rushed towards the Shijun Mansion, and saw Zhang Lu sitting still at the gate from a distance, his expression was serene, his eyes were deep, and the Taoist robe intertwined with gold threads looked even more dazzling under the reflection of the newborn sun. **
There were more than a dozen people standing on the left and right, some generals in armor, monks in Taoist robes, and scribes in Confucian robes.
And below are two rows of well-dressed soldiers in good armor, all of them are cultivators who have built a foundation and have more than one turn, and their physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary soldiers, and these soldiers will not be more than forty years old, and they can maintain their strength for a few years, and even some of them have room for improvement.
When Ma Fan was secretly praising the elite of these soldiers, these soldiers also discovered Ma Fan and the other three, and they were full of energy one by one, and the momentum on their bodies surged towards Ma Fan and the others without concealment.
With this kind of momentum, although Ma Fan and the other three did not let go of their eyes, but seeing these soldiers behaving like this, the three of them still had their own dislikes in their hearts.
"What are you doing here, stand down!" At this moment, Zhang Lu also saw Ma Fan and the other three, and hurriedly stood up and scolded while facing the front.
Although most of these people didn't know who Ma Fan and Ruan Ji were, it was reasonable to greet Kou Qianzhi where his identity was, so no one was surprised, and they all followed Zhang Lu towards Ma Fan and the others.
"Haha. Great sacrificial wine, horse brothers. Hard work!" Zhang Lu smiled on his face, but there were other meanings hidden in that smile.
was able to succeed in one fell swoop, and almost wiped out the people with dissenting intentions in Hanzhong City, and since then, Zhang Lu can be said to have really taken Hanzhong into his own hands, and he is naturally a little proud.
Just now, Zhang Lu's subordinates have been filming for a while, Zhang Lu is quite calm, putting on an unfathomable look, and he doesn't even smile a little, but there is a reason why he is showing this appearance at this moment.
Zhang Lu was apprenticed to Kou Qian back then. So the two are actually a master-apprentice relationship, because of this relationship, Kou Qianzhi has been extremely strict with Zhang Lu since he was a child. Without color, most of the time he is cold-faced, and he is scolded if he is slightly unsatisfactory, and even Zhang Lu Zili has been blamed. Kou Qianzhi can be said to have a deep prestige for Zhang Lu.
Although Ma Fan is currently taking refuge in Zhang Lu, the two are not subordinate, but cooperative, and even Zhang Lu will rely on Ma Fan in the future. Zhang Lu naturally has to be a little careful.
These two people have special identities, so they don't have to slap Zhang Lu's sycophants like those under Zhang Lu, and Zhang Lu also knows this in his heart.
It is precisely because what you can't get is the most haode psychology, so in Zhang Lu's heart, even if those people under him talk wildly, it is not as comfortable as Kou Qianzhi and Ma Fan to compare him with Emperor Qin and Han Wu and his ancestors.
And this old and young, their status, status and strength are above Zhang Lu, and they want to convince them. Even took a step back and suppressed them, so that they could really be used for themselves, but Zhang Lu had to show some merit and strength to prove himself.
However, Zhang Lu thinks that this incident is exactly in line with such a requirement, and there is a kind of "You see" in his heart. I, Zhang Lu, am still very good! You will obediently assist me in the future and obey my orders well. I want to tell the two of them. Expectations are naturally high, and if you care too much, you can't naturally pretend to be high.
"It's nothing hard, but you're too impatient, and you're a little bit secretive, and you almost cost us our lives. ...,
This time it was good luck, with the help of Ma Fan, a little nobleman, so that it did not cause a big disaster, and if you do such nonsense in the future, you must throw away the foundation of your ancestors. Kou Qian's training of Zhang Lu has become a habit, and he is afraid that Zhang Lu will be complacent and arrogant today, so he has the idea of blowing, so he unceremoniously reprimanded Zhang Lu, and characterized this incident as a nonsense, and said it very seriously.
Zhang Lu listened to Kou Qianzhi's words, but the smile on his face was swept away, but he didn't dare to attack Kou Qianzhi, and he was also used to Kou Qianzhi's way, so he had to sigh and said: "Our ancestors and grandchildren cannibalize each other, but it is a joke, and it almost hurt the big sacrificial wine and Brother Ma, I really don't want to go in my heart." Thanks to Brother Ma today, I am here to thank you. ”
Zhang Lu bowed down as he spoke, Ma Fan hurriedly helped him up, and then said with a smile: "Brother Zhang doesn't have to be like this. ”
Zhang Lu secretly said in his heart: "Kou Qianzhi's cold-faced ghost is just that, Brother Ma, why don't you say a few nice words to praise big brother me?!"
Ma Fan didn't see Zhang Lu's eagerness, but was more interested in the soldiers on both sides, looked at those soldiers, and said with a smile: "These soldiers are good, they are all elite soldiers, if half of the soldiers and horses in Hanzhong can reach such a level, defeating Liu Zhang and sweeping Shuzhong is just around the corner." ”
"Brother Ma Mo said and laughed, these three hundred people are my guards, they are the elite people I selected with great difficulty, although they are only soldiers, but they can serve as the commander or above in the general army, although I dare not say that the most elite soldiers in the general have been wiped out, but it is also a little difficult for me in Hanzhong to pick out such three hundred people, I am afraid that it is already the limit to be able to make up about one thousand, half of the soldiers and horses have reached this level, how is it possible?" Zhang Lugan said with a smile.
Ma Fan nodded and said: "Well, I think that Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Iron Riding 30,000 horses can almost reach the level of these two hundred, if only a few hundred people in Hanzhong can reach such a level, it is not enough to compete for the world."
However, I see that on the way I came just now, although the soldiers and horses who were strangling the enemy were a little worse, they were still quite a good job, if all the soldiers and horses in Hanzhong were like that, relying on the geographical advantage, I think it would still be enough to protect the Hanzhong side. ”
Hearing Ma Fan's words, Zhang Lu was suddenly shocked, and said with a smile: "Brother Ma is laughing again, the soldiers in Hanzhong City are already the most elite under my command, they all followed me when I raised troops to capture Hanzhong many years ago, and later after I became self-reliant here, they have been honed in the battles of stabilizing all parts of Hanzhong and resisting Xichuan, and now there are only about 10,000 left, so there is such a weather."
Most of the rest of the soldiers under my command are newly recruited, although they are all young and strong, they seem to be strong, and their martial arts skills are also very proficient, but most of them have not yet completely seen blood, and they are not elite soldiers. ”
"Hmph, I haven't been carried away by the victory, since I know that my strength is weak, I should be more careful in the future, but I can't act recklessly. When Kou Qianzhi heard Zhang Lu say this, he immediately interjected again.
Ma Fan saw that Zhang Lu's face was extremely ugly, and this topic arose because of himself, so he smiled and said: "
Ma Fan found out that Zhang Lu was abnormal, and suddenly realized that although he was telling the truth, he was a little shocking, so he said with a smile: "Well, listening to the eldest brother, it turns out that there is no shortage of elite soldiers in this Hanzhong, as long as the training is good, and then take turns to fight some small-scale battles with Xichuan, and hone for a year or two, there will inevitably be a large number of elite soldiers."
Moreover, the eldest brother also has nearly 10,000 monks under his hands, which is not available to the rest of the princes, this is the advantage of Hanzhong, and it is still a big deal to make good use of it. ”...,
Zhang Lu listened to Ma Fan's words, his face softened a little, and then he said slowly: "Well, the battle outside here is almost over, these thieves can't make any waves, let's go inside and talk!"
Kou Qian was silent, Ma Fan nodded casually, the matter was settled like this, Ma Fan and the other three and the dozen or so people behind Zhang Lu followed Zhang Lu to a meeting hall inside, and then sat down.
Kou Qianzhi naturally sat on the left head below Zhang Lu, and he sat behind him with two literati dressed as people, as for the first two positions on the right were sat by Ma Fan and Ruan Ji respectively, which naturally made many people dissatisfied, but after all, this is what Zhang Lu meant, so everyone is not good, just privately inquire about Ma Fan's identity.
After everyone sat down, Zhang Lu suddenly said: "Today, the thieves in Hanzhong City are in turmoil, and it is thanks to your great help that this catastrophe can be quelled, and I have thanked everyone on this way." ”
Naturally, everyone below said that they didn't dare, and some people even touted Zhang Lulai and pushed all the credit on Zhang Lu.
Zhang Lu was also accustomed to seeing such a scene, so he naturally didn't care, but said: "Although these rebellions have been suppressed now, many rebellious parties have absconded, and many families have transferred their direct members to get rid of them early, and some of these people and some accomplices are not in Hanzhong City today, if they are not all eliminated, there may be incidents in the future."
Hanzhong City was completely closed under martial law, and all efforts were made to search for me, but anyone who participated in the rebellion was arrested, men over the age of 10 were beheaded, and all men and women under the age of 10 were reduced to slaves. ”
"Master, most of the types of people you mentioned are now hidden, and they are not easy to identify.
Even if they can be identified, although most of them have been killed, there are quite a few left, if you count their families, the number is too large, so many people can't make portraits one by one and send them to the Quartet, but it is too difficult to capture them all. Kou Qianqian's face was like a coffin, and the forty-something scribe who was extremely obscene said.
"What Ji Wen said is also reasonable, I don't think anyone else can do it, so I will ask Ji Wen to do it, I will allow you to mobilize the power of the Xuanhuang and Huang patrols in the Eight Tours, and in addition, the civil and military forces will fully cooperate.
When Ji Wen handled this matter, if there was any suspicion, he could be immediately detained for trial, and if he disobeyed, he would be killed, and anyone who harbored would be guilty of the same crime as the rebel party once it was discovered. Zhang Lu said lightly.
The extremely obscene scribe suddenly looked happy when he heard this, and hugged his fists and said: "Thank you Shijun for your kindness, I will definitely live up to Shijun's trust, and I will definitely not let go of any chaotic party."
