Chapter 98: Hanging the Head (I)

The Changshou County Government Office was originally the official office of the commander Han Liang, but now it is occupied by Wang Hongyi.

There were people coming and going in the government office, but there were silent. There were solemn guards everywhere, and in the distance, there were long neighing from horses.

Wang Hongyi stood under an old mulberry tree and slowly reached the main hall. It was said that it was rainy in spring and summer. After a while, the raindrops fell again and could not be seen clearly outside.

In the hall, there were candles lit up little by little, and through the door, the outside was hazy.

With the eyes of everyone, Wang Hongyi took the throne, and the generals and the civil servants he brought were all greeting each other again, even the newly surrendered Han Liang also saluted.

"This time I went there, it was a big battle, so you must not neglect this logistics and key points, Yu Liangbo!" Wang Hongyi said a little louder and said.

"I'm here!" Yu Liangbo quickly responded and stepped out.

"You will immediately serve as the county magistrate of Changshou County. I will give you two guards, one of whom was transferred, and one of whom was under Han Liang, who was responsible for dispatching food and grass and security. You must not be careless at all." Wang Hongyi said: "Han Liang, you go to the front line with our army."

Upon hearing this, Yu Liangbo responded: "No!"

Han Liang suddenly drenched a basin of cold water from his head. His face was pale and his teeth were giggling. He did not expect that Wang Hongyi would cut off his military power and take his position as a county magistrate as soon as he came in.

Seeing this expression, Wang Hongyi sneered and said, "Han Liang, are you not convinced?"

"Hmph, as long as I cooperate with you, I didn't say I wanted me to surrender you. I was the one who took away my Du Zhen's soldiers, and I was not convinced." Han Liang knelt on the ground, but he was not convinced.

A flash of fire flashed in Wang Hongyi's eyes, and he smiled calmly: "Du Du was surrounded and 40,000 Wei troops attacked the city. It was really a failure. Du Du wrote a letter, which made the town feel very touched. This town respects Du Du's reputation, and hereby leads 20,000 troops to rescue Du Du."

This was said in a dashing way, but the people present suddenly felt like a thorn in their backs.

"A loyal general should have led his army to rescue the master. Therefore, you asked you to lead your troops there. You also took Changshou County as your logistics and had to be prepared. You were also familiar with the situation in this county and achieved success quickly."

"I don't want you to be ambitious, I ignore your master, and I only think about your own good fortune and power. I can't tolerate people like you, and Du Gong can't tolerate them either. I will put you on the spot here to thank Du Gong Du, do you have any complaints?" At this point, Wang Hongyi sneered.

No one expected that as soon as Wang Hongyi entered the city, he would take Han Liang, the commander of the capital, to rectify the Dharma on the spot.

All the generals were stunned for a moment.

"Drag it out and execute the execution under my banner. Cut this fang's head and hang its head to show it to the public!" Wang Hongyi said angrily without waiting for everyone to wake up.

The personal soldiers immediately responded to the order, and several people rushed forward, and then raised Han Liang and dragged him out of the hall.

Han Liang woke up at this time, struggled desperately, shouting: "You dare, I will never let you go like this..."

The screams were tragic and had already dragged them out far away. When they arrived outside the hall, suddenly, a scream became much higher, and then the shouts suddenly stopped.

After a moment, a personal soldier pulled a bloody head in: "General, he has been killed!"

"Put down and hang your head to the public, especially in Changshoudu. If there is any resistance, kill it without any revenge." Wang Hongyi said coldly: "Where is He Yi?"

"The last one will be here!"

"You personally lead the cavalry and hang your heads over the army, especially Changshoudu. If there is any resistance, killing will be done, and you will suppress it!"

"The last general will take the order!" He Yi said loudly and stepped out.

The generals looked at each other and did not dare to say much. The one who killed Han Liang, why didn't it actually intimidate the generals?

After waiting for a while, there was a noise in the distance, and it quickly turned into a faint sound of killing. Wang Hongyi walked in a walk, listening with a smile, without any concern, and continued: "Yu Liangbo, you are the county magistrate, you must use the food and grass well. I have already ordered the Song family to purchase food secretly. Combined with the bumper harvest last year, these 20,000 troops will be fought for three months, and you must keep it open all the time."

Yu Liangbo had to be.

Zhang Youzhi was still in a deep eyebrow, but said, "Lord, killing Han Liang is a little bit difficult, but Du Gong is really a messenger. If Du Gong really knows it, it will be troublesome. We will doubt our hearts will be strong."

"It doesn't matter. Now that the current situation has evolved, Du Gongzhen's own opinions are no longer important." Wang Hongyi said thoughtfully, his eyes glowing under the candle, his voice is not high, but it is extremely clear.

"The battle between Du and Wei towns is even more intense than I thought. At present, the Wei army has lost 20,000 soldiers and 5,000 soldiers. Of course, there are not so many people who died, half of them are wounded, but these 25,000 people can no longer fight."

"Du Town also suffered a lot of losses. Based on the information collection, I judged that the city's soldiers were less than 5,000, and they were all covered in scars. In this case, Du Gong really had very little choice."

"Is the lord saying that he is afraid of Wei Cundong's liquidation?"

"Well, the loss is so great, I can't help but give an explanation." Wang Hongyi said, "But we can't force it too much. Han Liang is actually willing to follow me, so I have an appointment, just beg me for death."

"The next two days, we will repair our troops in Changshou County and send troops to the third day."

"If the troops were sent on the third day, they would have to capture Liuzi County. I am afraid that Du Gongzhen may not be able to last for many days."

"Don't worry, I can only break through Liuzi County in half a day." Wang Hongyi said confidently. Five of these "Pili chariots" have been built, which is a powerful weapon for siege.

Zhang Youzhi saw that the lord was confident and knew that he would have something to do, so he had to respond to his orders right now.

At this time, the sound of killing outside had calmed down. After a moment, He Yi, covered in blood, came in and reported: "The two guards of Changshoudu, one guard did not move, and the guard had Han Liang's son. When he saw the head, he wanted to rebel, and I killed him, together with more than a hundred people who dared to stir up."

"Good kill!" Wang Hongyi stared at He Yi with admiring eyes, nodded and said with a smile.

Let’s not talk about the discussion in Changshou County for the time being. Hongze Town has learned that Wang Hongyi has sent troops. Du Gongzhen breathed a sigh of relief, but was a little unwilling.

But what's the solution?

If Wang Hongyi does not invite troops, he will surrender to the old thief of Wei. In contrast, Wang Hongyi is still easy to accept.

After Du Gongzhen told the decision to his nephew Du Ran, Du Ran felt very dissatisfied.

In Du Ran's view, the next heir of Hongze Town is extremely likely to be his own, so he can be said to be the future master of this vassal state.

Before he could inherit, he was told that this place would change hands soon, which made Du Ran very unwilling.

As soon as Du Gong finished speaking, Du Ran thought for a moment, and had an idea, and said, "Uncle, my nephew has a suggestion, I don't know whether to speak or not."

Du Gongzhen looked at him and said in a deep voice: "You and my uncle and nephew don't need to be polite. If you have anything to say, just say it!"

"No." Du Ran responded respectfully, his eyes flashed, and he bowed and said, "But Wang Hongyi led 20,000 troops to come, what should I do if the eldest brother..."

This eldest brother is Du Shan, the eldest son of Du Gongzhen. On the surface, Du Ran has always been respectful, so he directly used Du Shan's name.

"Well, but this is helpless..." Du Gongzhen suppressed his anxiety in his heart, took a step slowly, and said.

Du Ran said, "I just went to see the military camp, and the Wei army also suffered a lot of losses, but after all, there are still 25,000 soldiers, and Wang Hongyi also has 20,000. It is best to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight and let the two towns fight to the decisive battle. If the losses are huge, my uncle can handle it with ease."

After listening to Du Ran’s plan, Du Gongzhen was silent for a moment.

"Are you saying that you are waiting for the two armies to start a war on the grounds of turmoil in the city and then make a decision when the situation stabilizes?"

Is it a good thing to guard the fisherman?

Du Gongzhen lowered her eyes to hide her fluctuations.

Du Ran’s suggestion really made him very moved, and he was a little confused. In his impression, this nephew has always been a brave general. Has he been reading it wrong before?

But Du Ran obviously did not expect that his uncle would become suspicious of him.

"Well, your suggestions are very good, let me arrange them." After pondering for a moment, Du Gongzhen agreed to the suggestion.

How could he be willing to hand over his foundation to outsiders?

Until the last moment, Du Gong really won’t make up his mind, and this is also his persistence.

Further away, at this time, an open space outside the city was already crowded with people.

Wang Hongyi has made it clear that this will be called "Baozhong Temple", and Su'er also chose the location.

In the design, every county and every prefecture have a Baozhong Temple. The location is to choose some suitable locations. These are all handled by the mantra and ban, and of course, the Feng Shui Department may be handled in the future.

According to the design, the main building of the main temple has only a huge stone plaque with the names of soldiers who died in battle. The stone tablet is huge and can accommodate thousands of names.

If you can't accommodate it, a new Baozhong Temple will be built.

As for the first Baozhong Temple, it is located on a hill and divided into two places. In front is the main temple. What is somewhat different from the Martyrs' Monument on Earth is that the Baozhong Monument is built in the hall and is intoxicated by the people.

The hillside behind is a cemetery. According to the military system, in order to avoid plague, the guards and generals will be buried or burned on the spot and take their ashes back.

Here, I have to say that Wang Hongyi had long been a long-term plan and had sent a soldier's identity card. He would be killed in the future. As long as he compared the iron card, he would know his name, title, and family location.

Therefore, it can be burned, put the ashes and iron plates in the box one by one, and transported back. The hillside behind the main temple is the place where the ashes are buried.

Of course, this is also evidence of pension.

"Sir, will the construction start?" At this time, someone asked, the project is actually not big, just one main building and a stone tablet, and hundreds of people start construction together, ten days is enough.

"Let's start construction. All prefectures and counties will be established. When the general returns to triumph, all the soldiers who died in battle will be used." Su'er said instructed. She had already planned locations in all prefectures and counties without stopping.

"Yes!" everyone responded.
Chapter completed!
