Late Tang Dynasty: I

Chapter 78 The hero, spare your life!
Zhu Zhen had a great influence in the army, fearing to disturb the morale of the army, Zhu Wen did not dare to make a big show of fanfare, except for Kou Yanqing, he only called Li Zhen, the commander of the army, to discuss

"Zhu Zhen killed Li Tangbin, what did Li Sima think?"

Li Zhen also turned pale with shock, Zhu Zhen followed Zhu Wen all the time, saying that he was a veteran of Xuanwu. Besides, when Jieshuai led [-] troops to Xuanwu to take up his post, he was too small to fight against the heroes.

It was the more than 1 horses that Zhu Zhen led in Ziqing, and Jie Shuai used this to kill Huang Chao and compete with the heroes.

It can be said that all the generals and schools in the army, more or less, have something to do with Zhu Zhen.

Optimus Prime in such an army even kills the lieutenant without authorization, which is tantamount to rebellion.

"Zhu Zhen has no motive to make trouble, can Jie Shuai find out the reason?"

Zhu Wen looked at Kou Yanqing.

Kou Yanqing said: "The last general was afraid of being kidnapped by Zhu Zhen, so he hurried back to the camp, so I don't know the reason."

Zhu Wen nodded, agreeing with Kou Yanqing's words.

Li Zhen pondered for a moment, and said: "I don't know the reason, and I don't know whether it can be good. Since Zhu Zhen said that Li Tangbin rebelled, Jie Shuai should use Li Tangbin's rebellion as his argument, so that everyone can punish Li Tangbin's family and pay the first festival. Zhu Zhen, Yan Jieshuai trusts her, and ordered her to return to the camp, and deal with it later."

Zhu Wen sighed, and said: "That's the only way." Immediately, he arranged for people to return to Bianliang, punished Li Tangbin's family, and ordered people to take strict care of Zhu Zhen's family.

Before he finished speaking, he listened to the report from the guard outside the door, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu Zhen sent someone to report the military situation.

Zhu Wen hurriedly summoned him to enter the account.

Upon meeting, Zhu Wen frowned.

The person who came had disheveled hair, a bruised nose and swollen face, and ragged clothes on his body, he did not look like a warrior in the army.

That man was also unlucky, Zhu Zhen ordered him to speed up his horse and rush to report to Zhu Wen. In order to hurry, he did not take the main road, but took the small road, both horses fell down the high slope, and he almost died, and then lost his way After going around several times, the camp they found was even slower than Kou Yanqing's army.

"What did Zhu Dushuai say to this section commander?"

"Jie Shuai, Deputy Commander Li Tangbin wants to join Hedong, Zhu Dushuai has already executed Li Tangbin."

Zhu Wen looked at the letter soldier, his eyes became colder and colder.

"boom!"

Zhu Wen patted the table vigorously, everyone in the tent turned pale with shock, and the letter soldier was even ashamed and trembling.

"Come here, drag this person to the military gate and shoot him with random arrows!"

"Jie Shuai, please forgive me, Jie Shuai, please forgive me..."

Seeing that the soldier was urinating and excreting in fear, Zhu Wen covered his mouth and nose to make people put down the soldier.

"It's better to tell the truth!"

"No, Jieshuai...it's like this..."

Xinbing was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were torn apart, how could he dare to hide anything, he hurriedly poured beans out of a bamboo tube, and explained the ins and outs of the matter one by one, although he stuttered, the matter was clear.

But even so, the Xinbing was still unavoidable, and as soon as Zhu Wen finished speaking, Zhu Wen was so disgusted that he pushed the Xinbing to the gate of the army.

There are servants in the big tent to clean up the excrement and urine.

Only then did Zhu Wen ask Li Zhen.

"How good this matter is!"

Li Zhen also couldn't answer, although Zhu Zhen didn't have the intention of rebelling against this matter, but the fact of rebelling, if the handling is not serious, the military law will be unclear, the leading generals behind will follow the example, so there is nothing they can do.

Zhu Wen looked at Kou Yanqing and lowered his head when he saw Kou Yanqing.

"It seems that Zhu Zhen is still going to be killed." Zhu Wen said heartily.

Sishuiguan

In Datang at this time, whoever has money is naturally the leader. Ordinary people, let alone money, have a mouthful of food, which is already good.

And merchants are profit-seeking, and naturally they will not let go of the opportunity to empty the pockets of the big gunmen.

For merchants, there is more than enough communication. Basically, all feudal towns are forbidden to do business, and even protect merchants from other places.

After all, even for Jiedushi, if you want to buy what you want, you still have to rely on merchants to deliver it.

And merchants, in order to survive more safely, often use heavy sums of money to settle the officials of the towns and cities.

For example, in the Qin family, the son of the family is Xuanwu Yajiang. With this additional relationship, there are naturally no taboos.

Dozens of carts loaded with various goods and seven or eight beauties headed all the way to Sishui Pass.

"Hurry up, hurry up, if other families take the lead, we can only eat the rest."

"Yes, if the army wins, naturally the reward will be generous."

The leader laughed and said, "Reward money? If you expect reward money, you won't even be able to drink footwashing water."

"This group of soldiers, they are soldiers, but they are actually bandits. They have swept all the way, so many good things, hehe, the reward can only be regarded as a small change!"

"call!"

Let those soldiers exchange the good things in their hands for money, and then use the money to buy the goods in their hands. The man looked at the seven women and smiled. It is best for these soldiers to spend their energy on women. Ben's business is only comfortable.

When soldiers rob soldiers, merchants also have their own ways of robbing. In this world, a bucket of rice can be exchanged for a big girl with yellow flowers, and sometimes it doesn't even need so much.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped, and a woman's screams and guards' screams were heard.

The man at the end was squinting his eyes and calculating, when he suddenly opened his eyes, he saw a group of people, there were not many people, there were more than twenty people, all wearing short skirts, holding waist knives, standing in front of the carriage.

"This is the interception."

In this world, merchants naturally have guards, and there are quite a few of them. However, in order to save money, the main family has more than [-] guards.

But before the guards took up their weapons, the strong men galloped on horses and met each other. Half of the guards had already separated their heads, and the rest either ran away or knelt on the ground, begging for mercy.

The man at the other end also hurriedly got out of the car, and tried to say: "We are from Bianliang Cen's family, all good guys, all good guys, the money in the car is self-serving, just want to make friends!"

The headman's cry and begging did not make the people put down their weapons. They killed the grooms and even the women in the carriage, pulled out their clothes, and transported the corpses to a place far away from the main road for burial. : "What is your name?"

"Nu Cen is grateful, I beg the hero to spare his life!"

The people who came all changed into the clothes of the guard grooms. The bloodstains on the clothes were shocking, and some were still steaming.

"Cen Zhien, okay, if you are obedient, you can ask for your life."

"Speak, good man, speak, good man!"

"Take us into Sishui Pass!"

"Enter Sishui Pass..."

The man nodded.

…………

The person who intercepted the road was Shen Cuntai, the commander of the left army of Yushan's personal guard and the commander of the three capitals. After receiving the order, he led his troops to travel day and night, one person and three horses, and arrived at Sishui Pass in two days.

When he arrived at Sishui Pass, he was dumbfounded. The guards inside the pass were very strict. As an outsider, he couldn't get in at all, let alone see Zhu Zhen.

Shen Cuntai was also a clever person, and he went to Sishui Pass to observe for half a day. Except for merchants and recruiters, no one was allowed to enter the closed gate.

After much deliberation, Shen Cuntai led his men to stare at the Mangshan Avenue thirty miles away for a long time, and saw the caravan of Cen's family, which led to the above scene.

　From now on, there will be three shifts a day, three shifts a day, and one more shift
