Chapter 263: Nightfall
After Wang Can and Liu Xian discussed how to deal with the Xiliang soldiers, they continued to hurry with Liu Xian.
There were still a few strong men around Liu Xian and Wang Can, protecting Liu Xian's safety.
The people continued to move forward, and between each team of people, there were Xiliang soldiers.
Therefore, when the people were in a hurry, there was no time for each group of people to communicate with each other, and they could only wait for the rest time to convey some news to each other.
Even so, there was only a brief period of time when they could talk to each other.
After all, the rest time is not very long, and once you continue to rush, you will be separated again.
It has been a few days since the people left Luoyang, they can't eat, they don't have warm clothes, they don't rest well, and most of them are mentally tired, dragging their tired bodies, and they keep moving forward, not daring to have the slightest stagnation. On the way to Chang'an, hundreds of people fell to the ground every hour and never got up again. The official road leading to Chang'an was originally a spacious avenue, but at the moment it was stained red with blood.
Along the way, the sky is full of devastation and blood!
Crying!
Wail!
……
The sound is in the ears and piercing.
Wang Can listened to the heart-wrenching roars of the people, and his heart was also full of sadness.
In later life, he grew up under the five-star red flag, and when he was still young, he lived a carefree life, without any worries, without thinking about what would happen in the next moment, and without worrying that a war knife would suddenly hang above his head.
From the afterlife to the present, there is a big gap!
On the one hand, singing and dancing are leveling, and on the other hand, human life is like grass mustard, two extremes, which is difficult to adapt.
However, this can stimulate Wang Can's heart even more.
On the one hand, we strive for our own future, and on the other hand, we strive for the vitality of the people.
The so-called saints are also human beings, and they all have their own ** and their own ideas.
Someone once said to Wang Can in later generations: After solving the worries of individuals and families, it is already quite good to be able to make their own contributions to the people, the country and the society.
If everyone thinks like this, society will get better.
Wang Can had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but he still walked and chatted with Liu Xian.
I don't know how long it took, and the Xiliang soldiers ordered to rest.
When the people heard the order of the Xiliang soldiers, they heard the sound of heaven, and their staggering bodies were like deflated balloons, and they wilted down when they landed, without the slightest strength. The people were limp, sitting on the ground with their buttocks, ignoring their own image, and gasping for breath, and some of the people left their places and went to remote places to solve their personal problems.
Xiliang Bing sat leisurely aside, his thief's eyes roaming back and forth on the people, I don't know whether he wanted to find a woman with a slightly better posture to vent, or carefully check if there were any people trying to escape.
People come and go, so lively.
Many people who were not in the same team also gathered together to vent their dissatisfaction.
At this time, a common man dressed in coarse linen clothes with the left and right sides of the collar cut into triangles walked towards Wang Can.
This common man has bright eyes, a serious and cold expression, thick knuckles, and a strong and powerful body, and he is not an ordinary person at first glance. Especially when this person walked, his movements were strong and powerful, and his cold gaze invisibly exuded a terrifying killing aura, making the surrounding people give way one after another, not daring to face this person.
"Tiger!"
The people walked towards Wang Can, and a sentence suddenly came out of their mouths that surprised Liu Xian extremely much.
Liu Xian's white brows furrowed slightly, his eyes glanced at the strong man who protected him, and then at the people who walked towards Wang Can, how could he feel that the people who protected him were not as imposing and murderous as the people who had just walked in front of Wang Can.
Wang Can glanced at Liu Xian, looked at the people, and said, "Sick cat!" ”
Because of the two hundred soldiers, Wang Can could not confirm all of them, and many soldiers only met once, and had no impression. In order to solve the situation that Wang Can could not identify the soldiers, Wang Can deliberately came up with a joint slogan, and the soldiers who came to meet Wang Can said first, Wang Can only needed to give the next sentence of the slogan, and he could confirm that the people who came were soldiers who had infiltrated the people.
"Meet your lord!"
The people walked up to Wang Can and bowed slightly to Wang Can, looking humble and respectful.
"Whew!"
Wang Can took a few deep breaths in a row, calmed down the restlessness in his heart, and showed a happy look on his face, fortunately the soldiers did not directly call 'lord', otherwise Wang Can's identity would definitely be exposed.
Wang Can was glad in his heart, thinking that there were more than ninety soldiers, maybe any of them would expose his identity. Therefore, Wang Can instructed Pei Yuanshao: "Pei Yuanshao, this is still the territory of the Xiliang soldiers, be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, you go and contact the soldiers, let them change their names, everyone only needs to call 'young master', and they don't need to salute, just say the code." ”
"No!"
Pei Yuanshao responded, turned around and left.
Wang Can looked at the soldier and asked in a harmonious voice, "How are things going?" ”
The soldier looked humble, with a look of reverence on his face, and said, "Young master, the villain has already moved the elders and the main clans in the team, and most of them want to return to Luoyang, so it didn't take much time. After a pause, the soldier's expression became solemn, and he continued: "Young master, there is another thing, there are people among the people who have been bought by the Xiliang soldiers, these people act as scouts for the Xiliang army, and they deliberately mix among the people to inquire about the news and report those who want to resist the Xiliang soldiers. ”
Wang Can smiled and asked, "How did you deal with it?" ”
A ruthless color flashed in the soldier's eyes, and he whispered: "The villain has solved him!" ”
Wang Can praised: "Good, decisive and resolute, it should be like this, you have done a good job, worthy of praise." Okay, let's go back, wait for the army to come and attack the Xiliang soldiers, and you will immediately let the people rise up and resist and flank the Xiliang soldiers. ”
"No!"
The soldier responded, then turned to leave.
After one soldier left, another soldier came up.
In this way, when the Xiliang soldiers gave the order to continue on the road, all the soldiers had already finished reporting the news. Wang Can looked at Wang Yue and asked, "Ziwu, how many people are coming?" ”
Wang Yue said: "Young Master, there are ninety-seven people coming, and three have not yet arrived!" ”
Wang Can sighed: "It seems that these three people have been sacrificed, otherwise they should come to report if they don't complete the matter." ”
Pei Yuanshao said: "Young master, we have two hundred people infiltrating the people, and now there are only three people who have not returned, and the loss of three will not affect the overall situation." It is already evening, and we will definitely have to rest after a while, and when Zilong leads the troops to attack, we will immediately lead the people to resist, and from the inside out, flank the Xiliang soldiers.
Wang Can nodded and moved forward with Liu Xian.
Liu Xian saw that Wang Can handled things in an orderly and organized manner, and his eyes showed appreciation.
The expression on the old fox's face was very dramatic, showing admiration for a while, and ruthlessness for a while. Such a capable person works under Wang Can, coupled with Wang Can's ability, Wang Can is simply like a fish in water, and it is likely to pose a threat to the emperor in the future. After thinking about it, Liu Xian said with a smile: "Wang Shan, have you ever thought about becoming an official in the court?" ”
Wang Can was stunned, then reacted, and asked puzzledly: "Old Liu, why did you mention this?" ”
Liu Xian smiled and said: "I think you have good ability, you can enter the court as an official, if you are willing, I am willing to recommend you." ”
Wang Can shook his head and refused, not agreeing to Liu Xian's request.
Just kidding, Wang Shan is a name he made up, and it can't stand scrutiny.
Liu Xian saw that Wang Can did not agree, but he thought that the weight given was not enough, so he did not shake Wang Shan's determination, and continued to persuade: "Wang Shan, your ancestors lived in Luoyang for generations, and they were also official eunuchs, and now that the family is in decline, don't you want to restore the glory of your ancestors?" You must know that after entering the imperial court, you can ascend to the sky in one step, you can directly meet the Son of Heaven, and you can also glorify your ancestors when you enter the court as an official. You see that you are just a small official under Wang Can, and it is difficult to make great achievements, so why not choose again? ”
Wang Can wanted to do a good job, so he didn't refuse immediately.
Pei Yuanshao snickered in his heart, but he also wanted to tease the old fox Liu Xian, and said in a low voice: "Old man, what are you doing here?" Want to hit the attention of my master's advisers? Hmph, Mr. has outstanding intelligence, the master's ability is unparalleled, it is the best cooperation, you persuade Mr. to change the court like this, don't you let Mr. be the kind of villain who is in the twilight of the Qin. ”
After a pause, Pei Yuanshao looked at Wang Can and asked, "Sir, what do you think?" ”
Wang Can nodded and agreed with Pei Yuanshao's words.
He was also very funny in his heart, and felt that Pei Yuanshao's guy seemed to be dark and reckless, but he was also a little resourceful.
Wang Can looked at Liu Xian and said, "Elder Liu, what Pei Yuanshao said is very correct, since I have already returned to the lord, I can't change the court at will, and I ask Elder Liu to understand." ”
Liu Xianpi didn't smile, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay!" ”
Liu Xianren is an old monkey spirit, quite a thief.
Seeing that Pei Yuanshao came out to object, he immediately stopped mentioning this matter, but still chatted with Wang Can like a New Year's friend, but the content of the conversation was all about the situation in the imperial court? How does the imperial court need talent? How do you value talent? A person with outstanding ability like Wang Can will enter the phase in the future, and it is not a problem to rank as the third prince.
In short, the old fox didn't mention recruiting Wang Can, but he closely followed Wang Can in every word, wanting to tempt Wang Can to enter the court as an official.
Wang Can also talked with Liu Xian, chatting about the world, pretending to be crazy and stupid and ignoring Liu Xian.
You come and go, so it's not lively.
Wang Can and Liu Xian pulled each other's skins, Pei Yuanshao and Wang Yue's faces were flushed, and the expressions on their faces were quite interesting......
The people continued to advance, the rate of casualties was still very serious, and the night gradually became thicker, dispelling the afterglow of the setting sun, and the sky was dark, and night fell.
The Xiliang army stopped, began to set up camp, and stayed to rest.
As for the people who went to Chang'an, they rested in place, there were no tents, no quilts, and some were just a little cold dry cake to fill their stomachs and not starve to death.
"Whirring ......"
The torches crackled and burned, the flaming red flames kept swaying in the cold wind, whirring, and the Xiliang soldiers were tired, squinting slightly, and glancing at the people from time to time.
Few Xiliang soldiers took care of the people and left them to fend for themselves.
In the eyes of the Xiliang soldiers, the people did not dare to resist and there was no threat, so the vigilance of the Xiliang soldiers was not high.
PS: Today's two shifts, call it a day. In the past two days, I have been busy with graduation and leaving school, physical examinations and other things, and there are fewer updates, forgive me.
