Chapter 148: Temple Lang

Outside of Yedu, not many people in the world actually care about Liu Ai's life or death. In this world, there will be people dying every moment, and instead of caring about the life and death of the court servants, it is better to care about how to make a few fewer people die around them.

But there are still people who care, such as the Wangmen of Changshan Pass, who cares very much.

Last year, Liu Ai came to Changshan and tried to persuade him to raise troops to respond to the emperor, and Chen Mingyan's army had the disadvantages of the unstable foundation of the southern expedition, telling him that as long as the army was raised, it was not a rebellion but the truth of King Qin's side of Qingjun...... It made him very excited, half a year has passed, although the preparations for raising troops have not yet been completed, but the royal gate can not hold back the excitement and nervousness, and took the lead in spreading the counties and raising troops to attack Yanbei.

The reason why the army was hastily raised was because Wang Men felt that there were more and more temple monks in Changshan. The temple is too mysterious, without any identification, and may have been serving the lord's maid conscientiously and diligently to deliver news to the temple in secret; Or maybe the doorman with the halberd in front of the door is always keeping an eye on his movements. This feeling of being like a thorn in the back made the royal gate almost crazy, but even if he doubted who the temple was and there was a ghost in his heart, he didn't dare to use this matter to get angry.

The more I think about it, the more angry I get!

The depression that had been squeezed in the heart for a long time erupted at the moment when the royal gate was ready to raise troops, and on the same day, sixteen subordinates including two concubines were executed one after another.

Yanbei is a terrible opponent, and he is known for his strength. It is said that if there is no desire, everyone has desire, and compared to the big people, Yanbei, who was from a low background, knows how to control these villains all over the world.

There were far more temple langs around Wang Men than he had imagined, although there were indeed temple monks among the people he killed. The person who was executed was the temple man, and the one who knelt down and shouted was also the temple man, the temple man who waved the knife and beheaded him, and the one who clapped his hands and applauded.

Even the temple lords themselves don't know how many temple bells there are in the Wangmen Mansion.

But Tian Feng knew, Guo Jia before Tian Feng knew. After Liu Ai escaped from the gate of Yedu, Jixiao Temple invested more than 40 temple members to Changshan Kingdom to deal with this rebellion. The mansion of Changshan Wangmen is naturally on the cusp, and more than forty incognito temple ministers have their eyes on this place, even if each person only convinces the three of them to be used by the Yan clan, removing the slaves who overlap and receive double or even three bounties, there are still at least eighty people who are used by the Jixiao Temple.

Only the king's gate killed sixteen people? Too little, too little!

Zang Hong is a fierce man, leading the troops to fight and govern the county is very good, the two sides are engaged in the first battle, the defeat of the royal gate is not to a success, the army is defeated, and the army retreats to Changshan Pass. Changshan Pass is a Xiongguan, and it is located on the mountain road, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. But this Xiongguan is in a sense full of holes for Zang Hong, and the reason why he did not rush to attack is simply because his subordinates have not been fully rested.

"General, the villain is the temple of Jixiao Temple, and he can open and close the door for the general at night!"

Zang Hong old god waved his hand on the ground and let people send it down directly, he was a little tired, camped outside Changshan Pass for half a month, and came to ventilate the temple Lang I don't know how much, almost covering the entire rebel army under the Wangmen at all levels, up to the military marquis Qu general down to the horse archer, more than 40 ventilators came in half a month, some said to open in the middle of the night, some said to set fire to the grain, and even wanted to cut off his head while the king was sleeping...... And so on and so forth.

"This should be a good thing, but ......" Zang Hong shook his head and said to Zhang Miao on the side: "Guo Fengxiao plays with people's hearts, he is not a good person!" ”

This is not at all the same as Zang Hong imagined! Changshan has been thrown into a mess by the people of Jixiao Temple. What is all this? Proud of informing, better than betrayal, ignorant of loyalty and unkindness, each staring at the reward proposed by the Jixiao Temple violates morality.

Zang Hong waved his hand and said: "From Zang's point of view, when the city is captured and the head of the king is taken, these temple men should be wiped out!" What is demagoguery! ”

The upright Zang Hong disdains to use this kind of conspiracy to play with people's hearts to win, he is a traditional scholar who is not subject to the chaos of the world, yearning for the aristocratic style of action in ancient times, and he originally had a deep evil feeling for Guo Jia's Jixiao Temple, and now seeing such a situation in Jixiao Temple, he is even more ashamed.

A true wise man should help the lord of service to win the hearts of the people in the right way; A true samurai should face the battlefield with bravery, courage, and fearlessness. Instead of being like Jixiao Temple, tricking others to give up loyalty, no longer be brave, and betray the monarch, even if there is a difference between friend and foe, Zang Hong still feels unacceptable.

Zhang Miao sighed, "Ziyuan, Jixiao Temple is not what you imagined, it was originally established to check and balance the princes of the court. It was only later, when King Zhao discovered that words were the sharpest weapon, and the Jixiao Temple played an increasingly important role, for example, a few dozen people had the ability to change the victory or defeat of a war, and prevent trouble before it became a rebellion, how great a merit is this? ”

Zhang Miao is relatively casual, just like his younger brother handed over the affairs of Guangling County to Zang Hong in the past, and he can see these things. And in addition, it is because he knows the situation of the Yan family better than Zang Hong, so he can say it so easily.

"Even so, it shouldn't be like this! Brother Meng Zhuo, do you know what this battle makes me feel like? Zang Hong shook his head, exhaled gloomily on his face, and said: "Executioner, Wang Men and his subordinates are like prisoners with their hands and feet tied, kneeling at Changshan Pass waiting for the sword and axe to land, but they don't know anything, and they don't even have the ability to fight a fair battle with me. ”

This is what Zang Hong thinks now, these temple men who came from nowhere are too crazy, running out of the city one by one and returning to Changshan Pass, and the whole army is leaking everywhere. Even if Zang Hong and Wang Men get along in a different place, he doesn't have the slightest solution...... No one knows who is the temple and who is not. The people who really know who the temple is are not here and are not involved in this war.

These temple langs are like flies scurrying around without their heads, and no one can control them when they spy on intelligence.

"General, Changshan Pass is on fire!"

Hearing the loud report of their subordinates, Zang Hong and Zhang Miao hurriedly ran out of the Chinese army's tent, and saw from a distance the fire of Changshan Pass at night, and the smoke was billowing and circling up. He glanced at Zhang Miao and said, "The temple has done it and burned the granary of the king's gate. ”

Zhang Miao clenched his fists and said, "Ziyuan, it's a good time to beat the drum and march!" Changshan Pass has been self-defeating! ”

Zang Hong's heart was still awkward, but he couldn't let himself delay the fighter, so he had to wave his hand fiercely, and finally let out a long sigh.

The whistling soldiers and horses rushed up to Changshan Pass.
