Chapter 299: Arrest(2/2)
The first person he found was his own Qu Shuai Yan Zheng.
Yan Zheng is an old man from Taiping Road. He is in his thirties, has a handsome appearance, a white face and a long beard, and is quite cunning. In several battles with the Han army, Yan Zheng has made contributions and has been promoted all the way to the top.
Xiaoshuai, you will be responsible for guarding the east gate of Guangzong.
Although the east gate was far away from the direction of the Han army's attack, it was already the most suitable Yellow Turban general that Lu Xun could come into contact with.
In fact, it was very dangerous for Lu Xun to seek strict government.
Because Yan Zheng was nimble and alert, he had the military nickname "Capable" and was the first echelon among the small commanders. In the original Guangping War, the Hebei Yellow Turbans originally planned to use Yan Zheng to replace Yang Feng to guard the important area of Guangping.
But before Yan Zheng left, Guangping had been captured by Lu Zhi's army. People at the time sighed:
"If strict government is in place, Guangping will not be lost."
From this, it can be seen that Yan Zheng is well-known in the military for his good fighting skills. Moreover, when Lu Xun found Yan Zheng, he was at the height of his power, so how could he switch sides?
But in fact, Lu Xun made the right bet, and Yan Zheng was really instigated by him, and the price was the prosecution of Ye Chengwei. However, Yan Zheng was also very cunning. He did not actually participate in Lu Xun's affairs, but was responsible for
His actions turned a blind eye and acquiesced.
He did not stop, did not take the lead, and did not participate. But once the Han army successfully broke through the city, the due credit for this still belongs to his strict administration.
This is the typical cunning of Guizhou leaders. They eat both sides and want both sides. But who knows, they acquiesce and participate in it.
The reason why Yan Zheng was able to instigate rebellion was not just because of the accusation, but because he was uneasy. As an upper-level military officer, he knew the extent of corruption in Taiping Road in Hebei and the strength of the Han army.
It is different from the enthusiasm of the people below who believe in Taiping Dao crazily and want to establish an earthly kingdom and open up the world of Huangtian. Yan Zheng believed everything Taiping Dao said. He was already confused about his future prospects, and Lu Xun's appearance was just in time.
He could finally jump off the Yellow Turban Army ship before it sank.
This is why for every dog-slaughterer at the bottom who is righteous, most of the people at the top are disloyal, because the latter are too close to power and are more desperate.
Later, with Yan Zheng's tacit approval, Lu Xun began to instigate rebellion against the military officials in the army. He used all 16 notices and didn't even keep his own.
Soon, Lu Xun found an opportunity, that is, Wei Tong, the backer of Yan Zheng, was transferred to the position of Chief of Lutai Guards. Lu Xun thought of a way.
That was to burn Lutai and burn Zhang Jiao to death directly. Moreover, this move could also be framed by the Wei family. He was friends with Guangzong and knew very well about the contradiction between the Wei family and Zhang Bao. He knew that the two factions had reached the point where they were incompatible with each other.
degree.
No matter whether the action is successful or not, Zhang Bao must eradicate the Wei family. By then, Guangzong's chaos will be right in front of him.
In fact, all this happened according to Lu Xun's expectation. After the Lutai fire, Zhang Bao captured Wei Tong on the spot at the military meeting, and then launched a large-scale purge of Wei's party.
After the meeting, when Yan Zheng told him this with fear, Lu Xun was not only feeling happy? He was so happy that he felt so happy!
Then the whole city was in chaos, with fighting all over the place. Lu Xun listened to this and was immediately intoxicated.
