Fufeng Song

Lu Yao rested overnight in the study.In the early morning of the next day, he immediately threw himself into the complicated affairs.He Yun, who had half of his face swollen like a pig's head with clear palm prints, still followed Lu Yao with a serious expression.Shen Jin and Gao Xiang worked very hard. They led the troops out early in the morning, and ran around the whole Wubao a few times; the sound of shouting orders resounded through the sky, even Lu Yao, who was located in the center of Wubao, could hear it. Be clear.Lu Yao likes to exercise his physical strength by long-distance running, but these two have always been a little bit smug; today they are so active today, obviously they want to show their attitude.It seems that what he said last night finally worked.

When the sky was bright, the soldiers held the household registration yellow books and led the clan elders to check from house to house, and drove the entire Wubao residents to the open space outside the gate.The soldiers had already set up an earthen platform there last night, and Lu Yao strode onto the stage, announcing in public a proclamation enumerating Guo Rong's various crimes.Immediately, people cut off his head neatly.At the same time, more than [-] members of the Guo family were killed together.The scene of heads rolling around in the blood stains was terrifying. The soldiers even erected more than a dozen wooden poles to hang these heads with bared teeth and mouths high.

Less than half of the people in Wubao were surnamed Guo, and many of them were related to the deceased. At this time, there was a heart-piercing cry from the crowd, and then they suppressed a low sob.But there are also quite a few people showing happy expressions. They are refugees with foreign surnames who were forced into Wubao by the war. Obviously, the Guo clan did not treat them leniently.

Taking advantage of the huge intimidation effect, Lu Yao then read out an order from Yue Shigong, asking all the people in Wubao to move to Jinyang immediately.This order is nothing to those refugees who have long since left their homes, but to the Guo clan who have lived here for generations, it is simply unimaginable bad news. There are also those.

Lu Yao's mood was obviously much irritable than usual. He waved his hands with a cold face, and the soldiers around shouted and stepped forward together with flat-end swords and guns.Which of these soldiers is not a survivor of hundreds of battles?Who doesn't have a few lives in their hands?What's more, Fang Ding was fighting yesterday, and now his armor is still red, and he looks like a fierce spirit. The Guo disciples were scared out of their wits, and obediently went back to pack their belongings and set off on the road.

The matter at this end came to an end, and Lu Yao hurried to the granary again.Xue Tong had already requisitioned all the mules, horses and vehicles in Wubao, and led his subordinate soldiers to move supplies in full swing.But because food and fodder are really heavy, Xue Tong has to go into battle shirtless.

After going through all kinds of fuss, Lu Yao finally succeeded in emptying out the entire Wubao family property, and organized a large-scale team to march towards Jinyang City.Before leaving, he set a fire in the castle owner's house of the Guo family. Under the fierce north wind howling, the fire spread to the whole Wubao immediately, and the soaring flames made the air tens of meters away become fiery.

Lu Yao immediately stood on Tuomu Gang and looked at the winding team in the distance. Under the light of the fire, his chiseled face showed an indescribable cruelty.

From the whistling wind, the cries of the people in front were faintly heard, and a soldier spat: "Why are you crying! These people are so ignorant! If you go to Jinyang, you don't have to be afraid of barbarians, isn't it great?" ?”

Walking beside him was Zhu Sheng, a soldier who was rescued by Lu Yao on the mountain road yesterday.He sighed and said: "After all, it is a house that people have lived in for generations, so it will be burned if it is said to be burned. It would be a little painful for me..."

Another soldier walking beside him shook his head and said, "Why are they crying about the house? They should be crying about the dead people at home..."

Zhu Sheng nodded and said: "That's what he deserves! Who told the old man Guo Rong to have an affair with the Huns and become an official of the Hulu! This is called heaven's evil, which is still pardonable; self-inflicted evil, you can't live!" !"

Another soldier complained dissatisfiedly: "Heaven's wickedness can be a tree... What's this all about? What do you mean? Zhu Sheng, don't you grandson hang your book bag all the time! This is obviously a vulgar person who bullies the brothers! "

The soldiers who were discussing enthusiastically were obviously very friendly with Zhu Sheng, and Zhu Sheng seemed much more cheerful.There is no doubt that the experience of fighting side by side quickly melted the barriers between soldiers.

Lu Yao glanced at the soldiers.Since Duke Dongying, who was a great official of the imperial court, went into exile in Jizhou, Bingzhou has in fact become the world of the "Han Kingdom" of the Huns.The big surnames of the wealthy family who only want to protect themselves will inevitably make false claims with the Hu people; during this period, Guo Rong was not the only one who took the official position of the Hulu privately.The reason why he wanted to attack this Guo's Fortress was to punish those who defected to the country, but Guo Rong was ignorant of the situation and dared to link up with the powerful clans in an attempt to bargain with Yue Shigong.Strictly speaking, crimes such as the so-called adultery with Hulu can be regarded as crimes imposed on Yu, and there is nothing to worry about.However, he naturally wouldn't tell the soldiers this on purpose.

At this time, I suddenly remembered the girl from last night.She thought she could use her body in exchange for her father's life, but unfortunately the fate of the Guo family was already doomed, and Lu Yao had no choice.

Lu Yao shook his head, driving these wild thoughts out of his mind.Suddenly there was a loud sound of horseshoes breaking the ground behind him, Shen Jin led his cavalry team galloping forward, dismounted from the horse and greeted him from a long distance away: "General!"

Looking at the cavalry behind him, all of them were flushed.They all had saddlebags hanging all over their bodies, and some even had an old hen tied to the saddle.It seems that the looting after entering Wubao yesterday made each of them reap a lot.Shen Jin seemed to have completely forgotten the unhappiness of last night, he said with a dry smile: "General! There are two docks nearby, why don't we just take them all at once? Don't worry, we will absolutely obey this time. Military order, don't mess around!"

Lu Yao waved his horsewhip and whipped it in vain, and scolded with a smile: "Old Shen, are you poor and crazy? Those two Wubao are both owned by the Wen family in Qixian County! If you dare to move, be careful in military law, if you want to Your head!"

The withdrawal operation went very smoothly.When I went there, I climbed over the mountains and ridges, and it was miserable, but when I came back, I walked along the road, enjoying a leisurely stroll.

After only walking for tens of miles, there were actually four wealthy families along the way who sent their husbands and vehicles to help, and at the same time, they also supported a large amount of food and fodder.The leader of the team was either the patriarch of the wealthy family or the powerful elders of the family; they came to Lu Yao's horse one by one, praised the decisive action of the imperial army, and blamed themselves for not being able to send out support as soon as possible when they learned the news too late .It seems that for these local powerful factions, dozens of heads and a fire in Guojiawu Fort are more effective than any order.

Now that this dispatch of troops had completely achieved its goal, Lu Yao didn't care much about these powerful families. After saying a few words that were neither salty nor insipid, he ordered them to join the team and move forward together.Along the way, the leaders of the wealthy clan continued to join with their subordinates. By the time the whole army returned to Fenyang Pavilion in the central capital, the size of the team had more than doubled.

The event near the Fenyang Pavilion was even more grand than ever.

This day was exactly the day when Lu Yao asked Zhang Zhao to inform all the tyrants of the assembly. Except for the Guojiawu Fort that no longer existed, there were dozens of people with twelve major surnames and 34 Wubao within the scope of Lu Yao's convening. All the leading figures have arrived.In addition to their entourage, trilogy, children, etc., thousands of people gathered inside and outside the pavilion.

Most of these people arrived after hearing about the harsh treatment of the Guojiabao by the officers and soldiers.Several families were planning to go to Tuomugang to discuss with Guo Rong how to fight against the will of Yue Shigong. On the way, they saw the fire in Guojiawu Fort, and they were scared out of their wits. They turned around and ran towards Fenyang Pavilion. .

At this moment, all of them are loyal to the imperial court and to the new Liu Bingzhou; all of them are willing to abandon their families and businesses and join hands to fight against the Xiongnu.The gathering between Lu Yao and the powerful leaders lasted for two days.At the meeting, all parties agreed that this gathering was a meeting of unity, victory, and forge ahead; it was a meeting of unifying thoughts and gathering understanding.On the basis of extensive deliberation and discussion, the leaders of the rich clans at the meeting agreed to go to Jinyang with Lu Yao to meet the new governor of Bingzhou Yue Shigong, fully expressing their support and support for the new generation of leadership at the core of Liu Governor.

Lu Yao naturally praised these "loyal people", and sent out all kinds of praise like a flood. By the way, according to Yue Shigong's prior arrangement, he conferred considerable official positions on the spot to Zhang Zhao and the other two leaders of the wealthy clan who responded first.While being envious and jealous, the other tyrants once again expressed their sincere willingness to be loyal to the court.The savings of dozens of Wubao are so rich, they immediately raised all kinds of materials that Yue Shigong urgently needed, and the quantity exceeded Lu Yao's expectations.
