Chapter 408 I will rebel today. What can I do?
Yizhou County, Dianchi County.
Although Yizhou County is one of the four counties in Nanzhong and its economy has never been very developed, Dianchi County, as the seat of Yizhou County, is not small in size.
Most of the population in Yizhou County is concentrated in and around Dianchi County.
Dianchi County is also the stronghold of Yizhou County.
Among the many local powerful people in Yizhou County, Yong Kai's power is undoubtedly the most powerful.
Yong Kai is a descendant of Yong Chi, the Marquis of Shifang in the Western Han Dynasty.
Although the Marquis of Shifang, Yongkai's ancestor, was deposed by Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty on the charge of "payment" when it passed down to the third generation, the Yong family did not leave Yizhou at that time.
It has been 400 years since the Yong family settled in Yizhou.
Such a long history, coupled with the wealth accumulated by the three generations of marquises, is enough for the Yong family to develop into a local power that is second to none in Yizhou.
In the series of actions of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang to attack Yizhou's powerful people, there has never been any record of the Yong family. This is not because the Yong family are all good men and women, but in the past hundred years, their family's power has mainly been
Develop towards Nanzhong area.
Under this circumstance, the Yong clan has not had any serious conflicts with Liu Bei's rule.
But this does not mean that the Yong family truly surrendered to Liu Bei's rule in Yizhou.
On the contrary, Yong Kai, as the contemporary head of the Yong clan, has always been dissatisfied with Liu Bei's rule.
Moreover, Yong Kai's dissatisfaction was not only hidden in his heart in the past days, he also often expressed it openly without fear of being known by others.
As a direct descendant of Yong Chi, Yong Kai inherited many bad habits of his ancestors.
For example, arrogance and domineering are Yong Kai's most prominent character traits.
Yong Kai has such character traits, of course, not only because he inherited the style of his ancestor Yong Chi.
The most important reason is that under the painstaking efforts of the Yong family ancestors for hundreds of years, the Yong family has a very solid foundation in Nanzhong.
Taking Yizhou County as an example, it has almost become Yong Kai’s private property today.
In Yizhou County, Liu Bei's edicts were not even as effective as Yong Kai's orders.
With such a foundation of strength, Yong Kai gradually became arrogant.
Today, in a luxurious house in Dianchi County, Yong Kai, who has always been arrogant and domineering, is venting his lustfully.
After Yong Kai read the information in his hand, he angrily slapped the information in his hand on the desk in front of him, and then said viciously:
“Does Mr. Liu Bei really think that he is the one who calls the shots in Yizhou?
Before I sent out troops to attack him, he took the initiative to send troops to conquer the south. He really didn’t know how to live or die."
The reason why Yong Kai was so angry was that the intelligence in his hand recorded the news that Zhuge Liang was leading the southern expedition.
Although Nanzhong is located in a remote area, for the Yong clan who have taken root in Yizhou for hundreds of years, even though most of their clan members are not in Chengdu, their network of contacts ensures that they can receive all the news in Chengdu in a timely manner.
Therefore, Yong Kai could receive this urgent military information so quickly just after Zhuge Liang led his army to leave Chengdu.
The reason why Yong Kai was so angry after learning about this military situation did not mean that he was afraid of Zhuge Liang's southern expedition.
As early as when the news that Zhuge Liang was taking care of the wealthy families in Yizhou came to him, he had already made plans to raise an army to rebel.
Although the main development direction of the Yong family in the past hundred years has been in Nanzhong, his relationship with the Yizhou aristocratic families has always been tense.
Yong Kai could not sit back and watch Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang continue to clear out many of his political allies without any scruples.
Having been prepared in advance, the arrogant Yong Kai certainly would not be afraid of the Han army's southern expedition, especially after hearing that the leader of the Han army this time was Zhuge Liang.
What really made Yong Kai angry was that he felt that Liu Bei had slighted him by sending Zhuge Liang to the south.
This was undoubtedly an insult to Yong Kai, who was used to being arrogant.
In the hall where Yong Kai was, not only Yong Kai was present, but also his clansmen and confidants. There were dozens of people gathered in the entire hall.
When Yong Kai's vicious words reached the ears of the dozens of people, a look of fear immediately appeared on the faces of the dozens of people, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly at Yong Kai.
In fact, Yong Kai can be said to be a scholar with the demeanor of a famous scholar based on his appearance alone.
After all, the Yong family has been inherited for hundreds of years, so there must be a lot of books in the family, and Yong Kai grew up studying scriptures since he was a child.
However, no matter how Yong Kai looks like an upright scholar in appearance, Yong Kai is born from the heart and is as sinister as a snake or scorpion in his heart. Naturally, the people under him will feel a sense of fear.
Especially when everyone thought of Yong Kai's vicious methods in the past, the fear in their hearts became even more uncontrollable.
Therefore, no matter how rebellious what Yong Kai just said was, no one in the hall dared to speak out to dissuade Yong Kai.
No matter how treasonous and unethical the words were, they had heard it from Yong Kai in the past.
When Yong Kai saw that everyone in front of him was silent after he got angry, he felt a great sense of satisfaction in his heart.
This feeling of satisfaction seemed to make him feel that he was the emperor of Nanzhong.
Yong Kai was filled with a sense of satisfaction, and the anger on his face lightened a lot, but the fierce look between his eyebrows did not diminish at all.
Yong Kai, who regarded himself as the emperor of Nanzhong, learned that someone dared to come to attack him regardless of the heights of the world. His reaction must not be to shrink back, but to decisively accept the challenge.
Thinking of this, Yong Kai glanced at the people standing in front of him with cold and stern eyes.
The people he can summon to the hall today are all people he can trust.
So soon Yong Kai issued a series of commands to the people in front of him.
As Yong Kai's orders were issued one after another, the people taking orders quickly left the hall.
After those people left, Yong Kai looked at the remaining people in the lobby. He reached out and picked up the sword on the desk in front of him, and then strode out of the lobby.
When Yong Kai stepped out of the lobby, the rest of his confidants in the lobby spontaneously followed his footsteps.
Today Yong Kai and all his confidants are all wearing armor!
The place where Yong Kai and all his confidants were going was the governor's mansion in the county.
Yong Kai's residence was not far from the county governor's mansion, and the entire Dianchi County was actually under Yong Kai's control. Therefore, the heavily armed Yong Kai and his party quickly arrived at the county governor's mansion.
The current governor of Yizhou County is Zhengang.
When Yong Kai led a group of subordinates to forcefully break into the county governor's house, Zheng Ang was handling some government affairs in the official office.
Zhengang was the governor of Yizhou County personally appointed by the Han Dynasty. But with this status, it was impossible for him, the governor of Yizhou County, to have much real power.
In the past, Zheng Ang was just Yong Kai's political puppet.
But Zhengang is the governor of Yizhou in name, and he still has the power to deal with some small matters.
Zheng Ang is a very responsible official, so even if he is dealing with some small matters, Zheng Ang still looks diligent in official duties.
However, while Zheng Ang was working on official duties, he suddenly received the news that Yong Kai was leading people to forcefully break into the county governor's house.
After learning the news, Zheng Ang immediately realized that something was wrong.
But before Zheng Ang could react, Yong Kai had already arrived in front of him with a group of confidants.
Zhengang saw Yong Kai leading dozens of people to come to him aggressively, and the weapons in their hands were all stained with blood, and he already knew the purpose of Yong Kai's coming here today.
Zhengang is the great righteousness placed by the Han Dynasty in Yizhou County.
As long as Yong Kai was not determined to rebel, then in the past, even if Yong Kai was always on guard against Zheng Ang, on the surface Yong Kai would not go too far.
But today Yong Kai showed a mutiny attitude, so Yong Kai's purpose is self-evident.
And Yong Kai didn't intend to hide it from Zheng Ang.
After seeing that the entire county governor's mansion was in his hands, Yong Kai approached Zheng Ang step by step with a bloody blade in his hand.
In the process of approaching Zhengang, Yongkai informed Zhengang about the recent events in Yizhou.
In order to prevent Zheng Ang from colluding with the Han court, which was detrimental to him, under Yong Kai's arrangement, all previous contacts between Zheng Ang and the outside world were cut off by him.
Therefore, Zheng Ang did not know about some major events that happened in Chengdu recently.
And now Yong Kai deliberately told Zheng Ang all these things in order to see his attitude.
"Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang went against the grain and harmed loyal people. Isn't this a blessing to Yizhou?
You are also from Yizhou, are you willing to see these tyrants and traitorous ministers continue to harm the lives of Yizhou?
Now I want to uphold the righteousness of the world and raise an army to defeat the tyrants and traitorous ministers. I wonder if you would like to join my army of kings?"
When Yong Kai told Zheng Ang his intentions, Zheng Ang seemed to have heard a big joke, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
He betrayed the king with his ministers and dared to call himself the teacher of the king. This was the first time in his life that he had seen such a shameless person.
However, if Zheng Ang was appointed by Liu Bei to serve as the governor of Yizhou County in a dangerous environment, then he was not an unwise person. He knew what Yong Kai's intention was in recruiting him.
He is the governor of Yizhou appointed by Liu Bei personally. If he joins Yong Kai's rebels because he can't stand Liu Bei's "evil deeds", then Yong Kai's rebels will become even more famous.
Yong Kai's intentions are not difficult to guess, but Yong Kai underestimated him too much.
After Yong Kai finished his words of solicitation, he stared directly at Zheng Ang.
He held a sharp knife and spoke words of solicitation to Zheng Ang in order to force Zheng Ang to submit at the cost of his life.
In Yong Kai's opinion, there are not many people in the world who are not afraid of death. Under his threat, Zheng Ang is very likely to agree to his solicitation.
But to Yong Kai's surprise, Zheng Ang, after being stunned for a moment, pointed at his nose and scolded him directly:
"The heaven brought down chaos, traitors took advantage of the situation and spread everywhere, the world gnashed its teeth and hated it, and all nations mourned for it. All Han subjects, young and old, tried their best to relieve the national calamity.
Your family has been favored by the Han Dynasty for generations. I originally thought that you would personally recruit people and take the lead in taking action to repay the country's kindness and live up to your ancestors. In order to take credit for it, your name will be recorded in the history books for thousands of years.
I didn't expect you to rebel against the big man!
Back then, your ancestor, Marquis Yong, had a grudge against the Han Dynasty but was granted a title and land by the Han Dynasty. What a kindness and good story!
How is a human being who does not know how to repay kindness different from an animal?
What's more, you are a descendant of the Yong family, but because of your own selfish interests, you actually ignored the four hundred years of kindness between the Yong family and the Han Dynasty. How can you treat your ancestors like this?
Being ungrateful is called a beast, and being ungrateful and forgetting one's origins is worse than a beast.
If you want to kill, kill them. The Han Dynasty has always only had governors who sacrificed their lives for the country, and there are no governors who associate with those who are worse than beasts!"
When Zheng Ang pointed at Yong Kai's nose and scolded him, Yong Kai almost exploded with anger.
Zheng's scolding was like a steel knife that penetrated Yong Kai's heart. He was scolded for being forgetful and ungrateful by many people in the world. It was no different from digging into his ancestral graves.
The most important thing is that Zhengang's scolding is well-founded and Yongkai cannot refute it at all.
In anger, Yong Kai saw that Zheng Ang was stubborn, so he directly raised his sword and pierced Zheng Ang's body.
The sharp blade penetrated Zheng Ang's body without any hindrance. After Zheng Ang felt a sharp pain in his body, he collapsed directly to the ground, and a large amount of blood continued to flow from the corner of his mouth.
A large amount of blood continued to flow from the corners of Zhengang's mouth to the ground.
Seeing that Zheng Ang, who had been righteously insulting him just now, was about to die now, Yong Kai felt a lot of joy in his heart.
But in order to understand the humiliation he had just suffered, Yong Kai taunted the dying Zheng Ang:
"You are so stupid. Do you think your foolish loyalty today will be appreciated by Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang in the future?
After Zhuge Cunfu leads his army into Nanzhong, I'm afraid he won't be able to protect himself!"
After saying these words, Yong Kai couldn't help laughing.
He has full confidence in his own advantages, and Nanzhong is his home court!
But facing Yong Kai's wild laughter, Zheng Ang, who was about to die, was not worried at all. Before he died, Zheng Ang shouted with all his strength:
"Even if the Prime Minister can't hunt you down, what about the Champion?"
When Zhengang's shouting sounded in Yong Kai's ears, his laughter stopped abruptly, and for the first time, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
After hearing these words, all the confidants behind Yong Kai showed panic on their faces.
Champion!
No matter how remote Nanzhong is, Mi Yang's illustrious military exploits are enough to spread his reputation throughout the entire land of Nanzhong.
But after seeing the surprise and fear of Yong Kai and all his confidants, it was Zheng Ang's turn to smile, even though he felt that his life force was rapidly passing away.
Although Mi Yang is thousands of miles away, as long as he is here, the big man will not be looked down upon.
With this big Han court pillar around, Zhengang died with peace of mind.
I don't know when Zheng Ang died.
But the words he shouted before his death seemed to have magic power, constantly echoing in the ears of Yong Kai and his confidants.
However, Yong Kai was not an ordinary person, and he quickly dismissed the random thoughts in his mind.
Yong Kai forced himself to calm down, and then he ordered his subordinates: "Cut off Zheng Ang's head and send it to Zhuge Villager's army."
After saying this, Yong Kai walked outside.
The moment Yong Kai stepped out of the room, a gust of cold wind blew by, making Yong Kai shiver.
Compared with the coldness of his body, the surprise and doubt in his heart made Yong Kai feel more uncomfortable.
He was very afraid of Mi Yang.
But then Yong Kai remembered the various guarantees made to him by the messenger in the mansion, and his heart gradually calmed down.
With Da Wei backing him, what else does he need to be afraid of?
Thinking of this, Yong Kai's lofty ambitions emerged in his heart.
As the sun set, Yong Kai looked to the north with disdain:
Villager Zhuge, today I have rebelled against you, what can you do to me?
