Going back to an hour ago, when Wang Xun was asking famous doctors in Anling City to take them to expose the trick of Zhao Hongrun being injured, Zongwei Chief Wei Jiao and Yanling Army's deputy general Yan Mo were taking the five hundred
Named Yanlingjun, he marched aggressively to the main residence of the Wang clan.
Since he followed Zhao Hongrun and visited the main house of the Wang family yesterday under the leadership of Anling County Magistrate Yan Yong, Wei Jiao seemed to be familiar with the road and it didn't take long to get there.
But this time, Wei Jiao was not as polite as yesterday.
"Break open the door for me!"
Following Wei Jiao's order, several strong Yanling soldiers stepped forward and slammed their arms against the door of the mansion, causing the door to hit the ground with a loud bang.
Unfortunately, the door of the Wang family's main residence was quite strong. Several Yanling soldiers bumped it several times, but they did not open it, which alarmed the concierge inside.
No, there were curses coming from the house.
"Who is it? You dare to break down the door of my Wang family's mansion. Are you tired of living?!"
Following this curse, the door of the mansion opened with a creak, and when he saw a group of menacing Yanling soldiers standing outside the mansion, the people in the mansion panicked and hurriedly tried to close the door. Unfortunately, those few
The Yanling soldier hit him again in time, sending the servant flying half a foot away.
And when the servant who was knocked unconscious struggled to stand up and was about to ask a few questions, Wei Jiao had already walked up to him and slapped him in the face because of the insult he just said.
, and immediately knocked the man unconscious to the ground.
"snort!"
With a heavy snort, Zongwei Chief Wei Jiao raised his hand and pointed at the house, and said coldly: "No matter what you see, smash it for me! Yan Mo, you take twenty people and follow me to the north room!"
"Yes!" Yan Mo nodded and summoned twenty Yanling soldiers.
Following Wei Jiao's order, five hundred Yanling soldiers with high spirits rushed into the depths of the mansion with excitement on their faces.
You must know that the Yanling soldiers were all civilians of the Chu State, and the common people of the Chu State generally had a kind of hatred towards the nobles, especially the nobles with tens of millions of wealth.
It has to be said that smashing the Wang family's property along the way today can be said to be the happiest thing these Yanling soldiers have ever done in their lives.
Although it was said that what was smashed was the property of the Wang family and the aristocrats of the Wei state, and had nothing to do with the aristocrats of the Chu state who originally opposed them, but who cares?
But when those Yanling soldiers began to smash the main house of the Wang family, Zongwei Chief Wei Jiao led Yan Mo and the twenty Yanling soldiers, turned around the corridor and went straight to the north room of the mansion.
As the leading wealthy family in Anling, the Wang family naturally maintains a family of soldiers. No, when Wei Jiao and Yan Mo went to the north room of the mansion, they ran into a group of family soldiers. The number of the family soldiers was huge.
There are about dozens of people.
"Who are you? How dare you attack my Wang family!"
When the leading family soldier saw Wei Jiao, Yan Mo and others rushed in with sharp knives in hand. Their faces were filled with shock and anger, and they shouted loudly.
Hearing this, Wei Jiao cursed: "I am your ancestor!"
After saying that, he actually drew his sword and chopped the opponent to the ground.
…
Yan Mo watched with fear. He knew that Wei Jiao had been "persuaded (brainwashed)" by him and he had seriously regarded the fiction of King Su's attack as a real thing.
There were all kinds of birds in the forest. Yan Mo shook his head speechlessly. In his whole life, he had never seen anyone as "upright" as Wei Jiao.
However, Yan Mo thinks this is good, at least when he meets Wang Zan later, Wei Jiao will be very confident and will not reveal his flaws.
In terms of strength, the family soldiers of the mansion will naturally not be the opponent of the Yanling soldiers. After all, the Yanling soldiers are positioned as garrison troops like the Shangshui Army. If they can't deal with the family soldiers of a group of nobles, Qu Cheng might as well do it.
How could Yan Mo have the dignity to take charge of this army?
Almost in the blink of an eye, the dozens of Wang family soldiers were knocked to the ground by the 20 Yanling soldiers led by Wei Jiao and Yan Mo. This was because the 20 Yanling soldiers showed mercy and did not attack the opponent's vital points.
As a result, otherwise, how could the Wang family soldiers who fell on the ground still have the life to mourn?
However, this scene greatly surprised Wei Jiao, because he felt that he had not done much just now, and the twenty Yanling soldiers defeated an enemy twice their size. This fighting power was not inferior to Wu Ji's.
Soldiers of Shangshui.
"Compared to a year ago, these soldiers are completely different..." Wei Jiao couldn't help but praise.
Yan Mo smiled slightly when he heard this.
It has to be said that there are many former Chu generals in the Yanling army, such as Qu Cheng, Yan Mo, Zuo Xunxi, Hua Yu, Gong Ye Sheng, Zuo Qiu Mu, etc. They are all excellent in martial arts and know how to train the army.
The generals of the soldiers, even when they were under the command of Yangcheng Lord Xiong Tuo and Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu, were also responsible for the daily training of the elite guards.
This is the advantage of the Yanling Army compared to the Shangshui Army: because Qu Cheng attracted many generals when the Chu Army surrendered to Zhao Hongrun and incorporated them into the Yanling Army, the Yanling Army had a fairly complete general system.
There are more generals and fewer merchant navy than many.
For example, Yan Mo, who now serves as the deputy general of the Yanling Army, is the second-in-command of the Yanling Army. He is responsible for all matters such as training and drills. Even Zhao Hongrun praised him at the beginning as a rare general.
After hearing Wei Jiao's praise, Yan Mo did not feel proud, but asked Wei Jiao calmly: "How does it compare to the Shang Navy Army?"
Wei Jiao carefully recalled the Shang Shui Army during the Sanchuan Campaign, nodded and said seriously: "No less than the Shang Shui Army."
No less than the Shang Shui Army...?
Yan Mo was slightly disappointed.
The Yanling Army does not want to be like the Guliangwei and Wumajiao of the Shangshui Army, who often shamelessly claim to be the direct army of King Su, but in the final analysis, the Yanling Army is like Yan Mo, Zuo Xunxi, Huayu, Gongye Sheng, Zuoqiu
Mu actually believed that he was the direct army of King Su.
Under Zhao Hongrun's deliberate actions, both the Yanling Army and the Shangshui Army regarded each other as competitors. After all, the predecessors of these two armies were the Pingyang Army. When the Shangshui Army kept claiming to be the direct army of King Su,
Will the soldiers and generals of the Yanling Army be convinced?
At least Yan Mo was not convinced.
However, what surprised Yan Mo was that Wu Ji, a thousand-man general in the original Chu army, actually trained the Shangshui Army into a qualified army through his own study, and proved it in the Battle of Sanchuan
Own.
This incident forced Yan Mo to admit that Wu Ji was indeed a talented general.
However, Yan Mo thought to himself that he would not be inferior to Wu Ji.
If there is another war next time, I will take the initiative to ask for a fight. I cannot let the Shang navy be the best...
Yan Mo secretly made up his mind.
Being compared to a former general with a thousand men, Yan Mo, who was a general with a former three thousand men, couldn't stand it.
Thinking about this matter, Yan Mo followed Wei Jiao all the way to the north room of the Wang family.
The North House is the main house of the mansion, where the owner and his family live, and it is also the most noble and noble place in the mansion.
Here, they met Wang Zan, the head of the Wang family.
"Chief Wei Zong, what are you doing?"
I saw Wang Zan standing in the yard of the north room, glaring angrily at Wei Jiao and his party. Behind him, followed by his third son Wang Chen and a large group of soldiers, all holding sharp swords and looking solemn.
"do what?"
Wei Jiao sneered, stepped forward with his sword in hand, pointed at Wang Zan from a distance and cursed: "Wang Zan, you sent people to assassinate my Prince Su in public, and you dare to ask Wei what he did?!"
After hearing this, Wang Zan was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Not to mention that he didn't send anyone to assassinate Zhao Hongrun at all. Even if he did, how could he be so stupid as to declare himself a member of the Wang family in public?
This is clearly a crime that you want to inflict!
It’s a naked slander!
"King Su is really a good trick..." Wang Zan trembled angrily, pointed at Wei Jiao and said angrily: "He quietly defeated our plan and defeated me... Haha, you actually called me a sect of the Wang family.
Is there an assassin? Doesn’t Lord Zongwei know whether His Highness Prince Su was injured or not?”
"I know your mother!" Wei Jiao rushed forward angrily and struck Wang Zan with the sword in his hand.
Seeing this, the soldiers behind Wang Zan quickly protected their master behind them and started fighting with Wei Jiao and the twenty Yanling soldiers.
What's going on?
Wang Zan, who fled to the side in embarrassment, looked at Wei Jiao in astonishment.
When he thought about it, if the trick about Zhao Hongrun's injury was revealed, Wei Jiao would most likely feel guilty, but he didn't expect that this guy actually struck him directly with his sword.
Could it be that... someone really pretended to be my Wang family and assassinated that Zhao Run?
Thinking about it carefully, Wang Zan secretly complained in his heart.
In his opinion, Zhao Hongrun's temper could offend so many people. Remembering the last incident in Sanchuan, many nobles in the country were gnashing their teeth with hatred and wishing to send assassins to kill him.
If someone took advantage of the Wang family's grudge against Zhao Hongrun and assassinated the latter, wouldn't the Wang family become a scapegoat?
Wang Zan didn't care about Zhao Hongrun's life or death, but he could not afford to be charged with assassinating King Su.
Thinking of this, Wang Zan did not care about asking questions and shouted loudly: "Master Zongwei, Master Zongwei, our Wang family did not send anyone to assassinate His Highness King Su. There must be someone pretending to be my Wang family."
..." As he said that, he saw Yan Mo, who was standing there and seemed relatively calm. Seeing that this man was wearing armor, he quickly said: "General, please be careful and don't let the murderer of King Su go unpunished.
Let the Wang family suffer this unjust injustice..."
The murderer who assassinated King Su?
Yan Mo laughed to himself a few times, because he knew that the "murderer" was most likely staying next to Zhao Hongrun at this moment, waiting for his orders.
However, seeing Wei Jiao's face getting increasingly angry, Yan Mo was afraid that he would be knocked unconscious again, so he quickly came to Wei Jiao's side and whispered: "Let it go as soon as you see fit, and try not to cause any harm to anyone."
Because these words were Zhao Hongrun's original words, Wei Jiao's mood suddenly cleared up after hearing it, but he still had to fulfill Zhao Hongrun's other order.
"If it weren't for your Wang family to instigate the people in the city, how would the thieves have the chance to assassinate His Highness?... Smash it with me!"
All the Yanling soldiers swarmed up and started smashing the north room of the Wang family's main house.
Seeing this, the soldiers in the palace were about to stop him, but were stopped by Wang Zan.
Because at this moment, Wang Zan, from the confident appearance of Wei Jiao, it was difficult to judge whether Zhao Hongrun had really been assassinated.
It would be fine if not, but if this is true, then they will be in big trouble.
In comparison, the fact that the main house was smashed was not a big deal at all.
As a result, everyone in the Wang family stood aside and watched as the ferocious Yanling soldiers smashed the north room of their main house, but no one dared to step forward to stop them.
Among them, the one who hits the ground the hardest is probably Wei Jiao.
Looking at him like this, cold sweat broke out on Wang Zan's forehead.
Because he was increasingly doubting whether someone really pretended to be the Wang family and assassinated Zhao Run in public? Otherwise, how could this Zong Wei named Wei Jiao have such confidence and anger?
However, Yan Mo calmly shook his head while looking at the excited Wei Jiao.
Because he guessed that Wei Jiao, the Chief of Zong Wei, must have forgotten another instruction from His Highness Prince Su.
What a "upright" man...
Yan Mo shook his head slightly, then turned to look around and saw that Wang Chen, whom he had met once when he entered the city yesterday, was staring dumbfoundedly at his house being smashed, so he walked over calmly.
He lowered his head and whispered in his ear.
"His Royal Highness King Su asked me to tell you... His Highness and you are in peace this time."
Two clear things...
Wang Chen looked at Yan Mo in astonishment, and then he couldn't help but recall what Zhao Hongrun said to him outside the city yesterday, and he suddenly understood everything.
"Bastard!" He grabbed the weapon from the soldier beside him and slashed it towards Yan Mo.
It was a pity that Yan Mo's strength could not be harmed by him. He easily knocked the weapon out of Wang Chen's hand and subdued the latter.
Wei Jiao watched clearly from the sidelines. When he saw this, he remembered Zhao Hongrun's other instructions. He immediately pointed his finger at Wang Chen and shouted: "What a good boy, how dare you commit murder? Get him!"
"yes!"
Several Yanling soldiers came over, knocked Wang Chen unconscious with three blows, put him on his shoulders and took him away.
Wang Zan subconsciously wanted to stop him, but looking at the murderous Wei Jiao, he did not speak after all. He watched helplessly as his beloved son was taken away by Yan Lingbing. (To be continued.)
