Seeing that he was silent, Chang Yu said with a stern face: "You assassinated me a month ago and you should be executed for the crime. It would be a pity to kill you because of your ability. I will keep you by my side and give you a future. I owe you nothing, and I will never do anything wrong to you."
I haven't delved into your past, but I just smiled when hearing the many rumors. Whether you were a thief or a ranger, a hero doesn't ask about your past. But today I am really curious. Wuzhong, have you ever been a ranger?
A thief?"
"A humble position..." Wuzhong stopped talking.
Chang Yu shouted and asked: "Have you ever?"
"Yes" Wuzhong gritted his teeth! "I was a bandit in the mountains!"
"Then have you ever taken orders from intruders?" Chang Yu asked again.
Wuzhong shook his head: "No."
"Since you have never received orders from the intruders, you must have had nothing to do with the intruders. But why did someone see seven or eight people from Li Yan's tribe chatting secretly with you in a remote place when it was dark? They seemed to be very familiar with you, and there seemed to be more.
Dispute, are these people your accomplices from the mountain top or are they for another reason?"
Wuzhong gritted his teeth and remained silent.
"Do you really want me to arrest those people? Wuzhong, you can ignore the previous matter, but I have to figure it out. If you honestly join the army and strive for merit and serve the Ming Dynasty, it will be fine. If you engage in those pretentious tricks,
If you do something, I will kill you immediately..." Chang Yu shouted angrily.
A person in Wuzhong was excited: "Lord Governor, you, you know everything? You are humble and loyal, and you have no second thoughts."
"I want you to say it yourself," Chang Yu stood up and said sternly.
With a pop, Wuzhong knelt down: "Yes, Beizhi belongs to the White Lotus Sect, but Beizhi has never thought about pretending to be a ghost and conspiring to cause trouble. Today, I happened to meet my former church members and chatted for a few words..."
Huh... Chang Yu closed his eyes slightly and sighed in his heart, the White Lotus Sect, the White Lotus Sect, this mysterious organization with a history of thousands of years, is really everywhere.
In all dynasties, when it comes to matters related to weapons and weapons, there must be someone behind the change of ownership. Even Zhu Hongwu, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, benefited greatly from the White Lotus Sect in his rebellion. In the late Yuan Dynasty, Han Shantong took the lead in revolt, and Liu Futong was a White Lotus sect. Zhu Yuanzhang was
When he led the 4 cavalry to leave Guo Ziyi to create a foundation and conquer the world, most of the 4 cavalry were also White Lotus sects. Of course, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the White Lotus sect was banned and became an underground organization with various aliases and branches.
The imprint is always there.
The White Lotus Sect has always been keen on rebellion, and it has never stopped since its establishment. There were several times during the Ming Dynasty, and the movements were very loud, such as the Tang Saier uprising in the 18th year of Yongle (140), and the Xu rebellion in the 2nd year of Tianqi (16).
Hongru Uprising, the peasant army uprising that is sweeping the entire Ming Dynasty, how could they not be there?
The attitude of the imperial courts of all dynasties towards the professional rebels of the White Lotus Sect was one word: kill! Kill without mercy!
But Chang Yu never thought that Wuzhong had also joined the White Lotus Sect. If it weren't for the members of Jinyiwei under his command who happened to meet them for a secret chat and heard that those people were called Wuzhong Hall Masters, he would still have been kept in the dark.
The White Lotus Sect is a thorn in the side of the imperial court, and there is actually a certain leader working under the emperor's most favored eunuch. If this spreads...
"When I was wandering around in the martial arts world, I joined a religion. Later, the gang broke up and we had no contact for a long time. Unexpectedly, we met here today. We just chatted about daily life, nothing else..." Wu Zhong explained in a low voice.
.
"The interests of the country outweigh everything else. All bullshit and snake gods are bullshit. Worshiping that thing is not as good as worshiping the knife in your hand. When the Tatars killed you, they didn't see those gods coming to save you." Chang Yu snorted coldly: "You are not allowed to believe in religion in the army.
Your only organization! Wuzhong, there are only two ways to go now, one is to quit the religion, and the other is to kill you!"
Wuzhong, who "resigned from his humble position to teach," did not hesitate at all.
"Go ahead and talk to those people. If they don't want to retreat, you should know what to do."
"I know this because of my humble position," Wu Zhong gritted his teeth! He stood up, bowed to Chang Yu and left.
The flames crackled and everything was quiet. Occasionally, a patrol walked gently from a distance. Chang Yu stared at the flames motionless, feeling extremely complicated in his heart.
Someone was coming. Hearing the footsteps, there were many people. Chang Yu let out a long sigh of relief. He turned around and saw Wuzhong holding a knife in his hand, followed by seven or eight people. Li Yan also came.
"My subordinates are careless, please punish me." Li Yan came up and apologized.
"How can I blame you for this kind of thing?" Chang Yu stood up and walked to Li Yan, patting him on the shoulder with a wry smile. Li Yan was originally a thief and a soldier, and his background was mixed with three religions, nine currents, and hawkers.
Find out.
Then he turned around and walked towards those people, the church members in Wuzhong. Several people knelt down in panic and whispered: "Lord Governor, please spare my life."
Chang Yu helped them up one by one: "Wuzhong didn't kill you because you agreed to quit the religion, but whether you sincerely quit the religion or not is unknown. Logically speaking, regardless of whether you quit the religion or not, sincerely or not, I will kill you directly and wait for it to be settled.
Never have future troubles! The reason why I let Wuzhong go is to give him face and give you a chance. I really can’t bear it. They are all good men of the Ming Dynasty. They fought hard against the Tatars just now. If they die in the hands of this governor in the end,
"What is this?" Chang Yu looked up at the dark night sky with an extremely uncomfortable expression.
"Lord Governor, you guys have sincerely quit the religion. Wu, Mr. Wu said, you can't save your life by pretending to be a fool by following that bad guy, and you can't support your family and make a living. Killing Tatars and earning military merit is the way out, as a human being
I also understand that it is important to be upright and to support my parents, wife and children..."
Several people talked to each other and knelt down to beg for mercy.
"I hope you are sincere in what you say, and it will not be in vain that I have shown a kind heart today!" Chang Yu breathed out, waved a few people to leave, and then sat down.
Li Yan and Wu Zhong stood by and did not dare to speak.
After a while, Chang Yu raised his head and looked at Li Yan, "Investigate thoroughly in secret, just watch but not arrest. If you want to serve the court with peace of mind, then let it go. If there are any ulterior motives, remove them secretly."
It was dark and windy at night, and there were dark shadows in the mountains and forests. Not only were there many ambushes, but there were also shouts and sounds in the caves, mixed with the groans of wounded soldiers and the snoring of war horses.
Chang Yu curled up in the grass and gradually fell asleep. A few steps away, Wuzhong tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. Jiang Fa pushed him: "If you can't sleep, why don't you go for a walk outside the cave?"
Wu Zhong breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the knife and came out of the cave: "Kill someone to relieve boredom."
Behind him, Jiang Fa couldn't help but tremble, he was a bloodthirsty maniac!
A ray of red light broke through the clouds in the east, and it was another good day with the sun rising in the east. The soldiers on night watch were cold and went into the cave to rest, and the servants got up and made fire, cooked food, fed the horses, and worked hard.
After Chang Yu washed up, he walked outside the cave and took a few breaths of fresh air. It was a little sweet and he felt relaxed and happy. He found a flat place and started boxing to warm up.
Chen Wangting looked sideways for a while, but couldn't figure out why, so he instructed his two nephews to push hands.
"Master Chen, how do you like this boxing set?" Chang Yu came over after warming up.
"The tiger is born with wind, it is fierce and powerful, but it is like an entry-level boxing technique. Could it be the Bazi boxing of Commander Wu?" Chen Wangting speculated.
Chang Yu laughed: "To build a tall building, you cannot do without building a foundation. This military boxing is the basic boxing method for entry-level physical strengthening. It seems useless, but in fact it has great stamina! After practicing it, beating Wuzhong is like playing monkey."
.
As he spoke, he waved his hand, signaling Chen Suole to come over and practice.
Chen Suole didn't dare to be careless. This little head coach was never joking, he always worked with real guns.
Chen Suole is a rising star in Tai Chi. Although his skills are not as profound and exquisite as Chen Wangting's, he is better because he is young and strong. In terms of kung fu, he is a first-class expert, but in terms of actual combat, he is far behind the little eunuch. He is thirty years old.
Chang Yu had been hit by Chang Yu more than ten times and knocked over twice. This was without using ground tactics or hitting the target. Otherwise, he would have fallen to the ground. The anxious Chen Wangting clenched his fists beside him and wished he could fight in person.
In terms of training, Wuzhong is the best. He is fierce, brave, and strong enough to fight, take and resist beatings. Chang Yu wiped the sweat from his head and walked towards the cave with emotion in his heart. He suddenly thought about where Wuzhong was.
It seems that I haven't seen him since I got up.
Speaking of Cao Cao, when Cao Cao arrived, two figures walked slowly in the valley, each with five or six heads hanging on their waists. General Wu Zhong and his hair were covered in blood, his eyes were red, and he looked at He Chang Yu with a silly grin.
These two people didn't sleep all night and went out to ambush the Qing army spies!!
Uh... Chang Yu felt a little nauseous looking at those heads, and then ordered Li Tiezhu to tie the two of them up: "Going out of the mountain without permission, disobeying military orders, five military sticks!"
Wu Zhonghe, who was being complimented by everyone, was dumbfounded. Then he was tied up by several eunuch troops led by Li Tiezhu. No matter you were the commander of the Black Wolf Battalion or the governor's personal attendant, they would be tied up and beaten at any time.
Just beat him up.
But at this moment, warnings were suddenly heard, and everyone was shocked. Chang Yu jumped up and ran towards the cave, followed by everyone. Wu Zhong and General Fa, who were about to be punished, looked at each other, both used their strength to break the rope and hurried forward.
