The gates of Hanzhong City were wide open, and black soldiers poured into the city like a tide.
"Hurry, hurry! Follow!"
"The fifth battalion will control the south gate, and the second battalion will control the north gate."
"General Lei Tong will lead a battalion to capture the prefect's mansion. Don't let Yang Song go! The guard battalion will stay with me to protect the general."
With the sound of the army entering the city, the commotion and panic gradually became like water waves on the lake, causing ripples. Under the night, Hanzhong City was like a little beast that was awakened.
There was a heavy muffled sound in the stomach, and a burly figure pushed open the door on the tower, cupping his fists and saying.
"General, our army is in full action. General Yan Pu has gathered his cronies and handed over the west gate to the Guards Battalion to take over."
Lu Xun nodded, waved and said.
"Brother Chen Wu, thank you for your hard work. Come on, have a cup of tea."
Chen Wu's tall figure leaned back and waved his hands repeatedly.
"No, no, I still have to set up defenses. Before Hanzhong is completely under control, we still can't take it lightly. General, Mr. Zhang, General Yang, you guys have a drink. If nothing happens, I will leave first."
"etc,"
Seeing Chen Wu's furious look, Lu Xun couldn't help but laugh.
"Arrange a few soldiers to read military discipline along our army's marching route."
Chen Wu frowned slightly and said in a low voice.
"Soldiers will never violate military discipline!"
Well.
Lu Xun opened his mouth, but was choked for a moment. He scratched his cheek and continued.
"Then let me reiterate, remember to ask the soldiers to shout all the way along the marching route of our soldiers, shout loudly."
Chen Wu was stunned for a moment, cupped his fists and said.
"Take orders."
After Chen Wu left, Zhang Fu turned to look at Lu Xun with a smile and said with a little doubt.
"Although Boyan is young, his thinking is far-reaching. He has already begun to think about the safety of the people. But I don't know, what is the relationship between General Chen Wu and Boyan? Does Boyan want to call him his elder brother?"
Lu Xun took a sip of tea and briefly introduced Chen Wu.
"Three years ago in the battle of Xuzhou, Brother Chen Wu had been promoted to the rank of general and could lead an army alone. Seeing his bravery and loyalty, Your Majesty transferred him to the Yulin Army as my deputy general. If nothing happens, I will After leaving, he will take over the post of General of the Yulin Army. Since he is in the army, he is my brother. Brother Chen Wu is about the same age as my senior brother, so I call him that in private."
Zhang Fu smiled even more and joked.
"I thought it was a family that was close to the Lu family. It turns out it's because you are too young, Boyan! Also, you are in your early twenties, and you are about to be promoted to general! It is certain that you will be promoted to Sifang Town General and Five Marshals in the future. It’s over. It’s a pity that I don’t have a daughter, otherwise I would shamelessly tell you about matchmaking.”
As he said this, Zhang Fu said with some doubts.
"I heard that you haven't married yet? No one from this Jianye family comes to talk to you about matchmaking?"
Lu Xun's face turned red for a rare moment, and he answered with a slight embarrassment.
"Master Zhao Yun has a good saying, "If the world is not at peace, why do we call home?". I was born in a Jiangdong family since I was a child, so I naturally know that marriage between aristocratic families helps to stabilize our status. "
"But destiny has caused me to encounter great changes in my family since I was a child. I can only survive because of my mentor's compassion and risking his life to plead with Your Majesty. I don't blame Your Majesty. Back then, there were rebellions, thieves and princes fighting for hegemony. It is because of your majesty, my mentor, Zhang Hong, and Zhang Zhao who established a destiny for human beings, established a heart for the world, and eradicated the evils of the revolution, that the revival of Chu State today is possible."
"My life has been pledged to the country, and it is no longer possible for me to care about the personal affairs of my children. In this life, I swear to defeat all enemies in the world for Your Majesty, so that the three kingdoms can be unified and the world can be unified."
Zhang Fu and Yang Ren couldn't help but stand in awe after hearing this, and Zhang Fu bowed.
"I never thought that Boyan would have such awareness at such a young age! When my father was alive, I only focused on cultivating Taoism and ignored worldly battles. After my father's death, I felt hatred in my heart and only wanted revenge. Compared with Boyan, I am really ashamed! "
Lu Xun said quickly.
"Oh, brother, I'm overly praised. Life
In the face of great changes, who can see clearly the path they should take? I was just lucky enough to have a teacher. What's more, Mr. Zhang Lu was diligent in politics, loved the people, and showed kindness and righteousness. He also protected the people of the area. However, he died unexpectedly. The eldest brother's desire to avenge his father is not exaggerated, and there is no need to blame himself. "
Zhang Fu couldn't help but feel a lot better after hearing this.
Both of them are children of aristocratic families, and they have both encountered great changes in their lives. Now that they can sit together and chat openly, they can't help but feel a sense of mutual sympathy. Time flew by, and the fighting and riots in the city gradually subsided. The two of them chatted more and more enthusiastically, and the light tea was like sweet wine.
Until there was a knock on the door.
It was Chen Wu who came in again. This time he held two boxes in his hand, put them directly in front of Zhang Fu, and said in a loud voice.
"I wanted to capture the two brothers Yang Song and Yang Bai before my husband, but the two thieves tried their best to escape. It was hard to tell them apart in the night, and they died among the rebels. General Lei Tong cut off the heads of the two thieves and sent them away. Come here, sir, please check."
Zhang Fu was so excited that he stood up instantly. He slowly opened the wooden box with trembling hands.
"It is indeed the head of this thief!"
Great revenge must be avenged!
The long-cherished wish of seven years has finally come true!
Zhang Fu was trembling all over and bursting into tears.
Lu Xun stood up and said with some emotion.
"My tutor asked me to tell Mr. Zhang something: Husband's Tao has feelings and faith, and is intangible; it can be passed down but not received; it can be obtained but not seen; it is from its own roots, there is no heaven and earth, it has been fixed since ancient times. It is found and restored. Lost, lost and found again, can’t one’s human heart keep the Tao?”
Zhang Fu's trembling figure swayed slightly and calmed down again, but his expression was a little dazed. He opened his mouth to inhale repeatedly, and after a long time he raised his hands and said.
"Thank you Mr. Ji for me."
Lu Xun nodded, walked closer, took out a roll of brocade cloth from his chest, and said.
"Your Majesty has a decree with me, but the enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, so it is not convenient to announce the decree, so I will leave it with Brother Zhang first. It's time for me to handle military affairs."
After that, Lu Xun turned around and left with Chen Wu.
Zhang Fuze opened the brocade cloth he took and looked at it carefully.
"Young Master, what is written in this edict?"
"Your Majesty made me a Taoist Marquis, recognized the Five Pecks of Rice Religion as a legal religion, and allowed preaching in the country. Yang Ren, don't call me Young Master from now on. You and I will serve your Majesty from now on, and your Majesty will treat us well." .”
After saying that, Zhang Fu put away the imperial edict, took Yang Ren to the door, and bowed to the southeast.
the other side.
Lu Xun had already mounted his fast horse and was heading north of the city.
"General, what should we do with the surrendered troops?"
Seeing Chen Wu ask, Lu Xun replied.
"Leave three thousand people as a deterrent, waiting for the local army from Yizhou to come and take over. There are hundreds of people in Yanpu. The soldiers will serve as camp commanders, and the non-commissioned officers will serve as small commanders. Kill a few of the assassins and Niu Fu's cronies, and leave the rest Let Zhang Fu handle it himself."
this.
Chen Wu frowned slightly and raised his concerns.
"General, don't you need to arrange our people?"
Lu Xun turned around, with a warm smile on his face.
"Need not."
