Chapter 279 Wei's tragedy
In Hedong, near Anyi, there is still snow on the side of the road, and carriages pass by the official road.
Under the bright and clear sky, the air was still a little cold. A huge farmhouse was located in the direction of hundreds of cars, with some houses scattered around it. As the afternoon approached, the farmers who had lunch went out to see carriages coming, carrying farm tools and retreated to the sides in fear, waiting for them to pass.
"... Such a big battle."
"I heard that the eldest son of the Lord was killed by someone in Xudu... It seems that everyone from the Hedong Wei family has rushed back today."
"I can't even sit in the big house in the city... I have to run to the village and be careful of being taken over by someone."
"Speak nonsense, leave quickly, and go down the field."
"Huh... Why did you see the fourth son of the Zhao family today?"
"I went to the mountains to chop wood in the morning, and I'm afraid I'll come back in the evening."
The farmers who left with farm tools pieced together a simple vein. After the self-defense Ji was killed, it was already December to send the news back to Hedong County. After seeing the letter from Xudu from afar, Wei Wei fainted on the spot. When he woke up, he was in a daze. He was trembling. He pointed to the east and gritted his teeth: "My two sons died at the hands of Gongsun Zhi. If you don't take revenge, you will not be a human being."
After the first seventh year of Wei Ji, Wei Wei, who was over 50 years old, contacted three other wealthy families in Hedong, the Mai family, Liu family and Xue family. At this time, the Wei family was not ranked first in Hedong, and was still ranked behind the three families. There were still thirty-nine families with other clans. After the news of Wei Ji being killed in the court spread, many of the aristocratic families had relatives and relatives, so he also spoke out in a joint statement to contact the other counties to put pressure on the court. However, after the end of the year, he made an appointment to celebrate the New Year and gathered at the village outside the city of Anyi of the Wei family to discuss the next countermeasures.
Carriages stopped under the stone steps at the entrance of the village. The men, women, young and old who came out of the carriage were all side branches of the Wei family. They were dressed brightly, the young woman was beautiful and she was full of energy. They invited each other to enter the door. At this time, the seedlings of the main family had been broken, and most of these people naturally had other purposes, that is, to come here early.
The first seventh thing has passed, and the mourning hall has not been demolished yet. Nearly four or five hundred people in this big family have fallen into anger. From the mourning hall to the outside courtyard, there are noisy sounds. Occasionally, a few children chase and play and run over the adults. Then they are scolded. A little girl, aged five or six, lowered her head aggrievedly, shook her braids and did not dare to chew.
"The year has passed, and the court has not given us the Wei family an explanation!"
The women of the Wei family naturally had no right to discuss matters, and only agreed after their men expressed their opinions. The seats on both sides of the hall were the brothers of Wei Wei from the Wei family. Most of them were quite old, and they all came here with their children and grandchildren.
"Although the Wei family moved to Hedong from Dai County, they sat down when they were Emperor Ming. The court could not ignore us. When Bo Yu's incident came, I was so angry that I had not had a good sleep for three days!" It was probably Wei Wei's brother who spoke.
"That's right, although my Wei family is not as good as the three surnames of Wu, Liu and Xue, but they are also Hedong clans. This matter cannot be done like this." On the opposite side, an old man also got up and slapped the table: "When the other three families arrive, we will come to Xu to ask for an explanation. I don't believe that the court can still eat all my old bones!"
More than a dozen old men talked indignantly, and loud voices also reached the crowded courtyard. Most of the children and children outside also started to clamor. Obviously, they didn't care about a person from a horse thief. Even if the other party had five counties and tens of thousands of people under their command, they couldn't count them until they saw each other.
But on the other hand, the talents that the Wei family can produce are concentrated on Wei Boyu and Wei Zhongdao, and most of the others appear mediocre. There are also voices in the mourning hall without much confidence, and there is some hesitation about Gongsun Zhi's power.
"I heard that the court awarded him the governor of the North, and he was very powerful, but Xu did not make any noise..."
可
The first old man slapped the table several times, stood up, and almost roared at his brothers below or his own family with some abilities, "... No matter how powerful it is, you will be more lawful? Brother tells you that you can't just forget about this matter. If you swallow your anger, how do other families think of the Wei family?"
"... What the head of the family said was that he couldn't bear to swallow his anger... But there was something that he asked his brother to arrange first." The old man who had lost his temper looked over, "The brother is old and now he has no successors. It's better to choose one of the younger generations first, so as to avoid the brothers fighting for this position in the future, causing the family to be unstable."
Many people in the hall agreed, and even began to discuss the details, which made Wei Wei above stare at them, and felt dizzy, feeling depressed, and almost fainted...
....
At night, it was dark and the wind blew from the surrounding foothills. Remaining snow fell down and fell on people's shoulders. Ruthless footsteps sounded, and vaguely the sound of words fluttered in the cold wind.
"It's the farmhouse in front."
"You are clean, Lao Guo, you are a horse thief, you should be familiar with this."
"...... I'm not obsessed with me. Now you and I are no longer the Grand Sima and General in the court. Put away the identity. Since Xu Rong said that we should remove the Hedong Wei family and take us in with the Bailang. According to the rules of the horse bandit, this is called a letter of surrender. Don't be careless."
"I've done less murder and robbery? I just don't know if the Wei family has arrived. I'm stuck in Yanmen and I haven't tasted the taste of women for a long time. Anyway, I'll have to tell you, don't hold it in my arms."
"Okay, the sky is almost the same, let's go down."
The sound of speaking, stepping on a pool of blood-colored snow, coming out of the forest, where they hid, there were also the corpses of woodcutters in the mountains. A moment later, rustling footsteps sounded in the night, and thousands of figures carried weapons and stepped on the wet soil, surrounding them, and the blade slowly unsheathed.
The air was cold, and outside Weizhuang, several servants patrolling night were walking around the wall with lanterns. From time to time, they heard the vague roar of anger indignation in the village. Someone shook his head: "I thought it was to discuss revenge for the eldest son, but I didn't think it was to fight..."
Whoosh
Before the servant holding the lantern finished speaking, his expression suddenly froze. His body shook for a moment and fell backwards. Seeing this, his companion behind him hurriedly helped him, and only then did he see clearly that an arrow was inserted into his neck. In an instant, he heard footsteps and ran over. The moment he turned his head, the blade cut through his sight.
The lantern fell to the ground, and the headless corpse pressed on it and then went out. In the dark, countless steps stepped past the rolling head, approached the gate of the village, or directly set up a ladder and climbed up the wall, jumped into the courtyard with a knife, and then heard a woman screaming "Ah!". In the direction of the gate, black shadows surged, and in the light under the eaves of the door, there were ferocious faces. The guard yelled with weapons: "Who are you? How can you break through the Wei family village here..."
After the words came, Guo Si, who was burly on the opposite side, rushed over and drew his sword and slashed it on the man's chest. Blood was poured on the door, and the rest were also chopped to the ground, with blood dripping at the tip of the knife. He raised his hand and looked at the closed door.
"Scoring the door! No one left!"
Several strong subordinates behind him ran into each other.
On the other side, Wei Wei, who was hysterically scolding his brothers in the mourning hall, shrank when he heard the desperate scream, "Everyone goes out to see what's going on!"
More than a dozen old men in the hall stood up with some guards and hurried out to the outside of the house. The courtyard was already in full swing. A shrill scream came into their ears from different directions. Inside their sight, a group of thieves dressed in fur coats and dressed in regular clothes came over the wall with weapons and came over the wall to kill people everywhere. They stood under the eaves and were stunned and waved the blades, falling down, and blood splashed up and spilled all over the yard. The bodies were everywhere. The bandits rushed over and rushed down the walls around and rushed down to chase and kill the figures running in panic. Whether men, women, or young, they rushed over and cut them down with a knife.
Even if the dead soldiers in the village rushed over to the yard, they were then chopped to the ground.
The torches were thrown into the sky and landed on the roof. Soon the fire was lit. The surrounding torches and lanterns were lighted, and the voices were screaming in panic. The escaped men and women were crowded in the courtyard and rushed towards other courtyards. The gate slammed open. The Xiliang army that rushed in seemed to awaken the animal nature of the robbery of Luoyang and the capital of the capital, and there was no discipline to rush on them. Most men or resisted were chopped over with one knife, and then they sneered over the maids in the village and the female family of the Wei family. Four or five people were carrying one or two struggling and crying women in groups to find a free time to start tearing off their dresses.
In the chaotic figure, a five or six-year-old girl was crying, standing there and being squeezed around and staggering, shouting at her mother.
A long knife was hanging on the ground, and blood dripped from the tip of the knife. A tall figure squeezed away the people around him, and gently pressed his blood-stained hand on his thin head and rubbed it. The girl bit her lips and looked up with a dazed expression. It was a bloodthirsty and ferocious face. Blood dripped on her beard. She opened her mouth in horror, and wanted to shout out loud.
The cold and smooth blade pressed against the girl's neck. Li Jue looked at the group of old men from the Wei family under the eaves opposite, smiled with white teeth and pulled his arms out.
Puchi
The young body fell to the ground, and the terrified head was lifted into Li Jue's hand. Then it let go, and fell to the ground with a thud, licking the blood splashed on his lips, and pointed at the tip of the knife.
“Ahhhh….”
Wei Wei stared at the dead girl on the ground, screamed hoarsely, and tears flowed down his face. He raised the crutch in his hand and shouted: "Evil thief, I'm fighting with you."
The old body rushed into the crowd, hit the demon-like figure, and the long sword fell down, and the next second, it fell into a pool of blood.
………
The surrounding village screamed bitterly for a day and night. Among the people around them, the farmers naturally heard the sound. They were so scared that they dared to leave their house for half a step. Occasionally, they heard footsteps passing by, and even stopped breathing. The sky gradually shone and the screams disappeared.
After a long time, after the sky was bright and the bandits left, they dared to come out and went to Weizhuang tremblingly. After the fire, Yuyan was still rising in the cold morning. No vocals came. Behind the fallen door, someone was brave enough to poke his head in. His face was so scared that he fell and crawled out in a terrified manner.
"The Wei family...the Wei family...there is no one."
Inside, corpses were piled up like mountains, and heads were cut down, and they were placed on the overlapping corpses. Men... women... old people... children... Zhang Da stared at the direction of the door with frightened eyes.
"The entire Wei family was slaughtered...no living people are...receive the official!!!"
