Chapter 539: Hundred Tribes Conference
Speaking of fair ladies, gentlemen are fond of being naughty. In Xiliang, where martial arts are practiced, Ma Yunluo, the leader of the Tianshui Clan who is both beautiful and talented, turns out to be surrounded by many powerful young masters. Xiao Zhang, Zhang Ji, Zhang Jingzhong, and General Han Dezhi, the eldest son Han Ying, were all her subordinates.
It's just that Ma Yunluo never pretends to be polite to these young masters. He leads his gang to patrol the market every day, doing things to rob the rich, give to the poor, and eliminate violence. He has a good reputation in the local area. Chen Long and Lu Chang were patrolling along the road. When they were hungry, they ate at the mutton restaurant and heard many anecdotes about the Tianshui Gang.
After Lu Chang drank two cups, he saw the shopkeeper looking at the two of them frequently, feeling a little uncomfortable, and asked: "Shopkeeper, how to get to the City Lord's Mansion?"
When the shopkeeper heard that the two of them didn't know the city lord's mansion, he immediately guessed that strangers had entered the city and took them to report to the official. Lu Chang joked: "We are the guests invited by General Zhang. This is Lu Shuixia Huaiyang. I am called the Wind Chasing Hero Duan Zhi. I was about to register at the City Lord's Mansion when I asked about the way."
Wen Ting, the shopkeeper, said in awe: "It turns out that two heroes are here again! I'm sorry, the City Lord's Mansion is four intersections ahead from here, just turn right. There are quite a few knights here these days."
This last sentence aroused Chen Long's interest and asked: "Shopkeeper, who have been here in the past two days?" The shopkeeper shook his head and said strangely: "I can't remember many. But you two are not here to participate in the Hundred Years. Are you from the clan assembly? You can find out just by asking in the city lord's mansion."
Chen Long and Lu Chang looked at each other and said, "A meeting of hundreds of tribes?"
After coming out of the mutton restaurant, after passing three blocks, a small square appeared in front, one of the many small squares in Tianshui City. The only special thing is that there is a special brick wall here, covered with various wanted notices and government orders. It is the government bulletin board closest to the city lord's palace.
Chen Long and Lu Chang stood in front of the bulletin board and easily found the notice for convening a conference of hundreds of ethnic groups. The article said: "Liangzhou has been a place where Qiang, Hu, Han and Di have lived together since ancient times. Since the Three Chapters of the Law of the Great Patriarch, all ethnic groups have been autonomous and respected the Han people." The emperor has been the leader of the common people for a hundred years, and he has been spared the pain of fratricide and foreign invasion. Today, the Han Dynasty collapsed, the Han Dynasty collapsed, continuous wars, and treacherous ministers were in power, resulting in severe drought, withered grasslands, livestock dying of cold and thirst, and people hanging upside down. Due to the fire and water, the people of Liangzhou had no way to survive. The pastor of Liangzhou paid attention to the people's situation and allocated tens of thousands of military supplies to calm the victims. He specially informed all the people of Liangzhou that a meeting of hundreds of ethnic groups would be held in Tianshui three months later to distribute relief." At the bottom is the date. It was signed and signed with a big official seal.
Lu Chang looked at it and analyzed: "Is the ten thousand stone army ration enough to divide the hundreds of tribes? It is clearly to lure the hundreds of tribes, and the goal is to drive them into Hanzhong and Sichuan to eat."
Chen Long nodded and said: "Wind Chaser, you have made great progress, so that I, Lu Shuixia, will be impressed." Lu Chang laughed and said, "My lord teaches me to use my brain every day and learn from the resourcefulness of little Zhuge. The so-called person who is close to Zhuge will be red. "
Chen Long laughed and said, "It's just that Lu Shuixia sounds like a stewed shrimp. You are very brave and dare to give the lord a nickname." The two laughed at the same time, and Lu Chang said softly: "Having such an easy-going lord, I am the hero. You must have accumulated virtue in your previous life! Don’t worry, I won’t tell the caravan leader about this nickname, haha.”
The hard work of the past few days and the troubles caused by Ma Yunluo disappeared with a few jokes between master and slave. Chen Long's mood improved and he said with a smile: "Only a ghost will believe you. However, the conference of hundreds of tribes is held in Tianshui, which has its own profound meaning. This place is so close to Chang'an and Hanzhong, Han Sui's conspiracy is visible to the naked eye. Only when hundreds of tribes disrupt the Central Plains can he have a chance to secure Xiliang and prevent us from being able to unify Xiliang."
Lu Chang took a breath and said, "Han Sui has such a mind? It's hard to imagine."
Chen Long said: "Don't underestimate Han Sui, otherwise how could he become the lord of Xiliang. Even Ma Teng and Ma Chao's Ma Jiajun were no match for him, and he successfully squeezed them out of Xiliang. Besides, Han Sui's men also Not all of them are brave men, I have heard that he has Yan Xing in martial arts, successful men in literature, and countless talented people from foreign races. I don’t know if he has any other foreign advisers.”
Lu Chang said: "It is indeed vicious to take advantage of the severe drought in Xiliang to drive hundreds of tribes to the Central Plains to grab food."
Chen Long's heart became heavy again. In fact, this move was not only vicious. The Eight Kings Rebellion, the founding of the Han Dynasty, the Five Husties' chaos in China, and the invasion of aliens were all real history. The far-reaching impact it brought was the most significant in the history of Greater China. The eternal scar will not heal even thousands of years later, and will always bleed with thick blood. Even Chen Long, who traveled through time, was not sure he could change this dark history.
The two of them turned the corner and saw a mansion in the distance. Several soldiers were guarding the door, and they knew they were near the city lord's mansion. Lu Changchong looked at the surroundings with an expert's eye and said: "There is no business around the city lord's palace, so it is difficult to blend in with the crowd and observe. I am afraid this is done deliberately to prevent spies."
Chen Long had already discovered that the area around the City Lord's Mansion was being cleared, and said: "It seems that Zhang Ji is very cautious. But the City Lord's Mansion should be working during the day, right? If it's dark, come to the light. Aren't we Lu Shui Heroes here to register?" he said. Without waiting for Lu Chang to object, he stretched out his hand to open his hair and mess it up. With his dirty face and Hu clothes, he looked like a foreign warrior. Lu Chang quickly followed the instructions, and Chen Long was already striding towards the gate of the city lord's palace.
Chen Long's tall figure immediately attracted the attention of the guards of the City Lord's Mansion. One of them pointed his gun and said: "Stop! Where are the crazy people, please report your name!"
Chen Long kept walking and shouted: "Don't get me wrong, we are Lu Shui Shuangxia, and we are here to participate in the Hundred Clans Conference!"
The soldier was stunned and said: "Lu Shuihu? Isn't your leader already here?"
Chen Long joked: "Our Rhizoma purpurea has many branches. Our branch is called Qingshui Phyllostachys, there are also freshwater Phyllostachys sibirica, saltwater Phyllostachys sibiricum, and mountain Rhizoma purpurea..."
The soldier felt dizzy after hearing this. He poked his gun on the ground and said, "Okay, okay. Put your hands up and search yourself."
Chen Long and Lu Chang raised their arms and let him search them, but they took away their Persian knives, maces and daggers. Several strings of money on Lu Chang's body were also searched. Only then did the soldier say with satisfaction: "Enter the bungalow on the left hand side, a few small The officials will register them there. The weapons will be returned later."
Chen Long and Lu Chang Shiran entered the City Lord's Mansion and saw the first level of the City Lord's Mansion. There is a tall bungalow on the front, with tiles rising high, which is the main hall. There are low bungalows on the left and right, and people can be faintly seen walking around. Chen Long pretended not to know the road, winked at Lu Chang, and the two of them went straight to the main room. As soon as I arrived at the door of the main room, I suddenly heard an angry voice: "Where did this barbarian come from and dare to break into the city lord's mansion?"
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
