Under the leadership of Wei Yan, the resistance of Wang Bao and others was like a monkey trying to claim the title of king in the mountains. Without Sun Wukong, there would be no golden cudgel, and there would be no gods descending from the sky. After being beaten, they cried for father and mother, and fled the capital.
There is no place to escape.
Except for a small number of people who were killed or wounded on the spot, most of the others were captured, except for a few. I don't know if they could not bear Wei Yan's humiliation or because they forgot that there was a cliff on one side when they wanted to escape, so they just jumped from the cliff.
As soon as he jumped up and down, even Wei Yan had to say "admiration" when he saw it... um, wrong, he said "forget it".
The prisoners were secretly escorted to Lantian.
It is said to be secretive, but it is only announced to the outside world that it is to capture escaped prisoners. Because there are some defeated tribes and slaves from the Western Regions under the Qinling Mountains, so the civilians near Lantian will naturally not know the difference, and
I won't care too much.
And from a certain point of view, this is not considered deception, because most of these captured prisoners will be transferred to heavy mines to mine various ores for the development of the Hussar industry.
I say most of them because they still have another chance to prove that they have some other valuable opportunities besides being miners...
Fan Cong and Li Kui, accompanied by several people from Youwen Division, arrived at Lantian.
The change in mentality may have happened in an instant. Before, Li Kui thought that he was a loyal person who understood the righteousness of his family and country, and would definitely be able to lay down his life for the country and the people without any ambiguity. But when he suddenly asked himself if it was worth it,
By that time, faith had actually collapsed. True faith is never an indulgence, or peace of mind can be bought with money for sesame oil.
Once there is a comparison of values, the overall collapse will happen sooner or later.
Li Kui still had some minor injuries on his face, but he had already shown his "strong" character. Even with minor injuries, he could not leave the line of fire. He had to accompany Fan Cong to persuade the captured prisoners to surrender, and tried to get rid of them.
Obtain more effective clues and cooperate with Wei Yan to sweep the entire Zhongnan Mountains area faster, better, higher and stronger, and even the larger Qinling Mountains area.
Fan Cong and Li Kui, in a sense, are new employees. After changing from the original hostile relationship to a subordinate relationship, they must not only be honest and not lie in words, but also reflect it in behavior.
It was fine if you lied and concealed things before, but you must be honest and trustworthy after that.
When facing the "enemy", deception is a virtue, but after becoming one of the "one's own", if you continue to deceive, it becomes a crime. When you are a reader, it is fun to read piracy, but after you become an author, you hate piracy to the core.
, Pain on others and pain on oneself are two completely different concepts.
So is it true that for everything, you have to wait until it hurts you before you know something is wrong and you know it hurts?
Many things are two-sided.
Just like these years, when the East-West trade opened, not only the windows but also the doors were opened. It was not just small coins that flew into the gate, but also flies and mosquitoes. Even if there were screens, small biting black insects would still be there.
Can get in...
Just like Fei Qian can let people take some secret mountain roads from Shandong and send some family members to Chang'an Sanfu, people in Shandong can also secretly come to Chang'an Sanfu through some channels unknown to others.
Therefore, the tasks of Fan Cong and Li Kui are twofold.
One point is people and the other point is road, including the means of communication between them, the meeting points, and those who provide supplementary supplies to these people along the way...
These people must be hidden and not easy to be discovered. Because most of these people do not need to do any extra actions. They only need to regularly replenish the eating utensils in the hidden mountains and forests. They will only hook up when buying in large quantities.
We must pay attention to it, otherwise no one will pay attention to the small purchases we make on weekdays.
As long as we find a few lines like this, we can disrupt or even cut off the infiltration pipelines in Shandong.
This kind of measure can be most effective only if it is taken during the period before the war begins.
Of course it can be done in normal times, but it is like a spear and a shield. When the spear is sharp, the strength of the shield will naturally increase. After experiencing major setbacks, the Shandong spies have evolved into Li Kui's style of wearing gloves. If
It is said that if Li Kui had been more careful at the time and did not take the bait, it is impossible to say that he is still at large now. Therefore, the same is true for cutting off the lines of these desperadoes. Perhaps it cannot be as straightforward as it is now, but more people and a longer period of time need to be invested.
.
But unexpectedly, Le Yin, who looked brave and ferocious, bowed his head and surrendered with little effort after being wounded and captured, and then expressed his willingness to serve as a vanguard officer to seduce those in Zhongnan Mountain on behalf of Wei Yan.
The rest of the remaining troops showed up, but Wang Bao was resolute and refused to surrender. Even though Fan Cong and Li Kui used themselves as an example and said they could take Wang Bao's family to Chang'an, they still refused to surrender.
This news surprised Du Ji, but was also somewhat expected. On the one hand, he sent people to take Le Yin and other people who were willing to surrender into custody. After a short rest, he sent them to Wei Yan's men to serve as bait. On the other hand, he came to see Wang Bao in person.
"Wang's family in Donglai?" Du Ji's first question when he saw Wang Bao was like greeting. If the location had been changed to other places, such as a restaurant or a street, it would have been more difficult than in prison.
to be appropriate.
Wang Bao sat upright and nodded, "Exactly."
"The Yanqi of the past is the Donglai of today," Du Ji said in a deep voice, "Why does Brother Wang have to be like this?"
Du Ji's eyes were sharp, staring at Wang Bao's expression.
Wang Bao lowered his gaze slightly, seeming to be looking at the ground or the bowl of food on the ground.
Du Ji also glanced at the rice bowl placed in the cell, which was already covered with ants and insects.
It was obvious that this bowl of rice had not been touched since it was delivered.
Understood……
Wang Bao is on hunger strike.
This is almost the most painful thing and goes against people's own desires.
Different from anorexia, the disease is that the body has already felt that it is normal not to eat, and will vomit after eating. However, Wang Bao's hunger strike is to forcibly suppress his desire, and the meal is placed aside.
"Why bother?" Du Ji's tone was somewhat gentle. After all, he had some respect for those who dared to face their own life and death.
Wang Bao raised his head, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said hoarsely: "Traveling around was hard in the past, but I have no intention of experiencing it today."
Wang Bao understood what Du Ji meant, but he also responded with a pun.
The two looked at each other for a while.
There is a difference in the eyes of someone who is determined to die and someone who just wants to threaten death.
Du Ji nodded slightly, then cupped his hands towards Wang Bao and saluted.
Wang Bao sat still and did not evade. He just raised his hand and returned the salute.
Du Ji turned around and left.
Wang Bao lowered his eyelids.
The cell leader followed Du Ji, bending down and laughing along with him, "Your Majesty, this matter..."
Although it is normal for people to die in a cell. After all, even if you hide and seek, you will die, let alone in the prison of the feudal dynasty. However, these people were captured by Wei Yan. Who
I don't know if it has any other uses. Secondly, in prison, those who beg and cry for mercy are basically looked down upon. On the contrary, people like Wang Bao can easily gain some respect.
Du Ji walked out of the prison, looked up at the sky, pondered for a moment, and said: "Within three days, the food will still be delivered on time... After three days, if he still doesn't eat, he will probably fall into a coma... Just give him a good time."
!』
After the cell leader received the order, he immediately felt much more relaxed, nodded and bowed, and said he accepted the order.
Du Ji hummed, waved his hands, and without even bending down, he quickly pressed his head to the cell head on the ground, turned around, and returned to the county government office.
In every place and every country, there are some people who look fragile but are actually strong, and there are also some people who look loyal but are actually slutty. The gap between these characters is not that obvious, nor is it like Chu Hehan.
It’s like a world-wide confrontation. You may be loyal to one today and kowtow to another tomorrow. Just like in the late Ming Dynasty, when it came to the Manchus and Qing Dynasties, their hands and feet were aching and weak, and they collapsed before fighting. After transforming into the Green Camp, they were ruthless and ruthless and refused to retreat until they fought.
They are all the same person.
Du Ji pondered for a moment, then beckoned for his entourage and said, "Go and invite someone from the Wen Department!"
Someone from Wensi came soon to pay tribute to Du Ji.
Du Ji didn't deliberately stage anything, lowered his head to read the text, and acted as if he hadn't heard anything. Instead, he waved the people from Wensi to sit down, and then said: "Yesterday, among the people sent by General Wei, there were some who wanted to go on a hunger strike."
Full Qi Festival..."
Youwen Si said oh at first and didn't take it seriously, but seeing that Du Ji just said half a sentence without any follow-up, he realized that this half sentence was meant for Youwen Si! Can Youwen Si
Only if you do it, you will have the second half of the sentence. If you can't do it, you won't even have the next sentence!
"The intention of the county magistrate..." Youwen Si's eyes moved slightly, "You mean there are Shandong eyes and ears around Lantian? But... I haven't seen any news about anyone getting through?"
There are guard posts on major traffic arteries.
Du Ji nodded and said: "Sometimes, you don't need to send any news, you just need to be a witness."
"Not sending a message? Just a witness?" Yuwenji frowned, "If it's just a witness... around here..."
The area around Lantian was the base camp and transit station that originally accepted all kinds of refugees. The complexity of the population is evident. In the Han Dynasty, when there were no system files and no image records, it was undoubtedly an extremely cumbersome task to filter out specific people.
Extremely difficult things.
Du Ji nodded again, "I know all of these..."
Youwen Si suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He understood what Du Ji meant. If Du Ji already knew everything You Wen Si said, then what is the value of You Wen Si?
"If not..." Someone from Wensi still wanted to restore the situation.
Du Ji smiled and said: "Yes or no, I will report it according to the facts."
In the end, Youwensi could only lower his head and said, "I accept your order."
Only when you show value can you have value, whether in life or death.
Of course, the key point is that leaders must have ability, real ability, not the ability to make money. Otherwise, just one sentence, unclear or unclear, is not only a slap in the face, but also a slap in the face of politics.
Above the group. Like Du Ji, who is upright and upright at the moment. Even if there are people who hear the news, others will be frightened by the news, but they can only be obedient in front of Du Ji.
Wang Bao has his own persistence.
Wang Bao's persistence may be what he said. "The hardship of running around in the past" has made him lose hope of moving again. He just wants to leave something for the people in his hometown. With the surrender of Le Yin and others,
betrayal, his persistence is even more valuable, and this hope and value undoubtedly cannot be carried away by himself...
Du Ji also had Du Ji's own persistence.
He looked at the invitation on the corner of the desk.
The invitation specially delivered by Wei Duan's official family was to express Wei Duan's birthday and invite Du Ji to have a drink.
The relationship between Du Ji and Wei Duan went from being very close at the beginning, then gradually drifting apart, and now to the current polite alienation. It was not a matter of a day or two, nor the influence of one or two things, but after seeing each other.
Du Ji only made such a decision after the contradictions and conflicts between the behavior of Wei Duan, especially his son Wei Kang, and the overall environment.
Under the influence of Fei Qian, the entire gentry system of the Han Dynasty began to change. Not only the group of people led by Pang Tong, but also people in Shandong and Guanzhong felt the change in the direction of the river of history.
Some people are not adaptable to change, while others crave change.
Du Ji's "Yan Qi" words to Wang Bao are actually, to a certain extent, an expression of his own inner thoughts.
During the disputes of the Warring States Period, Prince Dan of the Yan State made a last-ditch effort, and the Qi State once ascended to the throne of hegemony. However, with the passage of history, they all failed, and these kings and grandsons of the Yan State and Qi State finally
He lived in Dongnae and became the origin of the Wang family in Dongnae.
Not to mention the Qi State, even the marginal country Yan State made certain contributions when fighting against the nomads in the north. However, whether it was the glory of the Qi State or the heroes of the Yan State, they were ultimately
Can't resist the surging trend...
But now, Du Ji feels that the general trend lies in the west, not in the east.
In the art of war, the four words "condescending" are not simply the control of the array, but also the geographical advantages. Geographically, the Guanzhong area has innate advantages over the Heluo area and the extended Shandong area.
The terrain suppresses it. This is just like the suppressive force of the northern region on the southern region in the feudal dynasty.
This suppression is multi-faceted, the most important of which are two, one is food and grass, and the other is climate.
The northwest is bitterly cold, while the southeast is warm. This inherent unfairness has created different personality types in the two regions, as well as relatively different eating habits. More importantly, when people from the bitter cold land arrive in the south, a land of plenty,
When it comes to food, there is no need to think too much about what to eat. This was especially obvious when the nomads invaded the south. When the vegetation in the north was withered and yellow, and even the roots were dug out and gnawed, fresh and tender weeds could still grow freely everywhere in the south.
For the troops in the feudal era who mainly focused on accumulating energy, it was simply a natural boon.
And there were no cotton-padded clothes in ancient times.
Even if there are cotton-padded clothes, how many princes can provide complete equipment? People who are accustomed to the warm climate in the south will lose more than half of their combat effectiveness when they go to the north, let alone fight. If the north reaches the south, they will be naked at worst.
Just hit the arm.
The reason why I say majority is because history always likes to play tricks occasionally.
No one can place their hopes on "occasionally", just like placing their dreams of getting rich on lottery tickets. Except for the director of the lottery center who is smiling, I am afraid everyone thinks this person is a fool.
Does Du Ji think he can pin his hopes on "occasionally"?
He hopes to obtain it through hard work, so that such a foundation will be more stable and solid.
So how loyal is Du Ji to Fei Qian?
Neither is it.
Du Ji is still a person who is loyal to himself and his family. If Fei Qian wanted to let Du Ji die for no reason or make a worthless sacrifice, Du Ji would immediately resist.
Without the slightest hesitation.
But when the general direction is consistent, especially when Du Ji feels that Fei Qian's side is the direction of the world, Du Ji will do everything he does and do his best for Fei Qian's political group.
Of course, if Cao Cao is able to invade Guanzhong one day and control the third assistant, Du Ji will not die for the destruction of Feiqian's forces, but will happily devote himself to his new job.
, at best, when mentioning the old master, his attitude is still respectful and respectful, that's all.
To put it simply, Du Ji is a pragmatist through and through. Everything starts from the most fundamental issues. Therefore, Du Ji becomes more and more disgusted with Wei Duan's attempts to find a pie for him. Of course, what's more important is that
When Du Ji learned about the virtues of Wei Kang, the next generation successor of Webster, his evaluation of Webster was repeatedly lowered.
The friendship of the current Webster was cultivated in the past, and the friendship of the next generation...
Haha, what kind of heir is indicates what kind of ending there will be.
Du Ji did not want to be dragged down by Webster.
Originally, Du Ji tried to hide in Lantian and avoid Webster as much as possible, not wanting to have too much interaction with Webster. However, he still couldn't avoid it. Webster's post was delivered to the door, almost forcing Du Ji to do so.
Ji has to make a choice.
"It's about time..."
Du Ji sighed slightly.
When something happened to Wei Kang, Wei Duan sent people to find Du Ji, but Du Ji prevaricated him and sent him back.
This is normal.
Chaos breaks out in the city, fire dragons burn warehouses, generals are at odds, and the young master is at a loss. Everything seems to be a major flaw and a hidden danger for Chang'an. Under such a situation, it seems that an opportunity is coming...
Therefore, it is of course reasonable for Webster to prepare some additional arrangements for future plans.
And Webster probably won't do anything special. If he calls it a birthday drink, it must be just a drink, and it will definitely not cause any trouble. But sometimes, eating and drinking is just an attitude.
But with this attitude, Du Ji didn't think it was necessary to give it.
If Wei Kang, the next generation successor of Webster, has some abilities, Du Ji might be prepared to leave some good karma, but now it is certain that Wei Kang's level is average...
Du Ji smiled, raised his hand and called his confidant butler, and gave him the invitation on the desk. "When I write a reply, I say that I have a lot of work in Lantian and can't get away. I will prepare a small gift to express my gratitude."
Sorry... Just choose the four colors for the gift as normal..."
The housekeeper was slightly startled, "My lord, can I write a reply?"
Du Ji took a breath and said, "That's right, you write it. From now on, it's okay if Webster doesn't send posts. If he does send posts... you will write them... But if... I'm afraid there won't be any chance to write...
…That’s it, let’s go…』
The housekeeper didn't know what was going on, but he could also understand that Du Ji wanted to completely draw a clear line with Wei Shi.
After all, Du Ji's personal reply and the butler's reply are two completely different concepts.
