Looking at Zhu Sheng's panicked expression, Lu Yao suddenly felt bad.

He stepped forward, pulled Zhu Sheng to the side of the road, and made a gesture to silence him. After looking around and seeing that there was no one around, he asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhu Sheng replied: "General Qiyu, Lu Zhi...... Lu Zhi is gone! ”

Lu Yao was suddenly dizzy, and barely stood still by holding on to the low wall beside him. Well, well, so it was. I'm really afraid of something. As the mastermind of Sima Ying, the former king of Chengdu, who sought the authority of the world, Lu Zhi had a great plan. And he was only half a day out of death row, and he wiped out the Jisang thieves who crisscrossed the north and south of the river in just a few palms, and his ability to cross the river and cross the river was more well known to Lu Yao. Taishi Gongyun: "As soon as Zigong came out, Cunlu, chaotic Qi, broke Wu, Xinjiang and Jin and overpowered." "In Wei County at this moment, Lu Zhi is a figure like Zigong. If he is allowed to let go, the rebellion of the clan kings that has gradually settled will inevitably regenerate!

But is it appropriate to do so?

Since the first year of Yongning, the kings of the imperial court have fought for power, and each has a large army to attack. The Central Plains land soldiers are in trouble, and the people of all ethnic groups in Hu and Han are all living in difficulty. It's just that those wealthy families, high-ranking officials and officials only know that the people can be bullied, some of them sell people for profit, some of them knock on the bone and suck the marrow to collect taxes, and some openly rob * robbery to make a fortune...... Under their merciless manipulation, hundreds of people were cornered and could only become bandits.

Among these bandits, there are strong heroes who take advantage of the situation, Jizhou has Jisang, Shile, Qingzhou has Liu Bogen, Wang Mi. They looted, looted, and killed everywhere they passed, expanding their scale like snowballs, using violent means to reduce villages and communities to ruins, and then coercing the people to join the ranks of the bandits, bringing nightmarish suffering to more people. And when these thieves combined with the Hu regime, they produced even more terrifying destructive power. In the end, the weakness and decay of the entire Great Jin Dynasty were exposed.

At the same time, 250 years after the division of the vast Xiongnu Empire, the Hu people in northern Xinjiang regathered enough strength. Countless ferocious and greedy Hu people are sharpening their knives, waiting for their feast like wolves on the steppe gradually approaching their prey. Some of them, the Huns, Di, Qiang, Wuhuan and Qian, who had gradually moved to Hebei and Guanzhong in the past hundred years, had already cut off pieces of delicious flesh and blood from the limbs of the Great Jin court.

The anointed land has become a battlefield, the Han family has been killed and wounded, and the Great Jin regime continues to lose blood, but Lu Yao looked around, it was simply a world of faintness, military generals were afraid of death, civil officials loved money, the imperial family was ignorant, and thieves were swarming...... What's even more terrifying is Lu Zhi and his ilk, he threw himself wholeheartedly on the confrontation with Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea, and he couldn't see that the Great Jin Dynasty was in danger at all, and he never sympathized with the innocent people of Li in his heart!

Lu Yao never thought of cooperating with Lu Zhi, even if Lu Zhi offered a price that was enough to make anyone's heart move, he couldn't impress Lu Yao. Lu Yao is always on high alert against this great strategist who once shook the world and framed dozens of lives of the children of the Lu clan in Jiangdong.

If you consider the practical problem, Lu Yao is now the general of Yamen under Liu Yueshi, the assassin of Bingzhou, and Yueshi is the right-hand man of Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea. In case Lu Zhi's dealings with himself were leaked out, the King of the East China Sea would be furious, and Yue Shigong would be afraid that it would be difficult to do so.

Since the end of the battle in Yecheng, Lu Yao has not met with Lu Zhi again, and only ordered Zhu Sheng to bring a few reliable subordinates to keep a close watch on him. Around Lu Zhi's camp, there were soldiers from the prefecture to supervise him, and even his diet and daily life did not allow him to act alone. And Liu Fei, Bai Miao and other dead soldiers under the command of the king of Chengdu who were sent by Lu Zhi in the past, Lu Yao showed his kindness and invited them to live with him in Jian'an Station, firstly, so as not to regenerate their hearts, and secondly, to cut off their connection with Lu Zhi.

Such an arrangement can not be described as imperfect, Lu Yao originally planned to wait until everything was settled, and then think carefully about how to deal with Lu Zhi. But he never thought that this powerless scholar would disappear under the noses of Zhu Sheng and others?

Lu Yao subconsciously chuckled and pressed the edge of his palm, trying his best to suppress his anxiety: "You say, you say." What's going on? When was it discovered? ”

Zhu Sheng's face was full of shame, and he fell to his knees suddenly: "General......"

As one of Lu Yao's most trusted subordinates, Zhu Sheng is very clear about Lu Zhi's background and understands the special significance of this person. Lu Yao gave him the task of taking care of Lu Zhi, originally because he took a fancy to Zhu Sheng's astute character. As a result, he let Lu Zhi escape after only one day! Zhu Sheng couldn't wait to be humiliated by the blood, he knocked his head twice on the stone floor, and a large bag of bruises suddenly bulged in front of his forehead.

When he was about to elaborate, Lu Yao suddenly took two steps forward and bypassed Zhu Sheng, and hurriedly said, "I'll talk about this matter later." Go back quickly, and settle your troops. No one is allowed to enter or leave the camp without my orders. In addition, Chu Kun! ”

"In!"

"It's hard for you to go, and immediately recall Ding Miao, Xue Tong, Shen Jin and others."

Lu Yao's words were low and urgent, and before Zhu Sheng and Chu Kun could answer, he didn't pay attention to them. He smiled to himself and raised his voice, "General Li! ”

It turned out that Li Yun hurried over, and at this time he had already raised his feet and stepped across the courtyard gate.

Almost all the senior officers of the Yecheng Defense Army were no longer in the war. At this moment, Li Yun is the undisputed first military attache in Wei County, with tens of thousands of troops in his hands, and the safety of hundreds of thousands of people in Wei County is gathered in one. Perhaps because of this, Li Yun's style of action is very different from that of two days ago. I saw two columns of halberd-wielding armor soldiers beside him, lined up from the gate of the courtyard to Lu Yao. The iron hoods and sleeve armor exude a metallic color, which looks very majestic.

Li Yun himself didn't seem to be in a good state, his eye sockets were deep, he looked haggard, and his expression had a strange brilliance of excessive excitement. As soon as Lu Yao bowed down and gave half a salute, he was taken to the side of the road by Li Yun after walking a few steps.

"Daoming, the new Cai Wang is gone!"

"Yes......" Lu Yao only bowed slightly. Yesterday, the Kisang Shile thief had already publicized this, and at this time, it was only the final confirmation of his death. For Sima Teng, the culprit who single-handedly directed the two erosive situations in Bingzhou and Yecheng, he really couldn't mobilize much grief.

Li Yun looked at Lu Yao's overly calm face, and added: "The new Cai Wang is gone!" The brethren found his body, alas, what a terrible sight......"

Li Yun pounded his chest, paused and sighed, but Lu Yao interjected and asked, "But I don't know where the Shile thief is now?" Can General Lee send troops and horses to pursue? ”

"Ah...... This has not yet been investigated. When Jisang is dead, the thieves are discouraged, and there is nothing they can do to forgive them...... Let's deal with it after Yecheng is completely recovered. Li Yun replied perfunctorily and continued: "King Xincai is dead, and everyone is grieving. I have thought about it, and I must order the soldiers to quickly wear linen and filial piety to show their sincerity. It is also necessary to immediately go to the court to show the loyalty of our army...... It is said that I am grateful for the kindness of His Royal Highness, and everyone is willing to die, so I killed the bandit leader Jisang. The rest of the thief army absconded, and our army will pursue and suppress it on a large scale, vowing to avenge King Xincai and fight the thieves endlessly! ”

He grabbed Lu Yao's arm and asked, "Daoming, what do you think?" You can rest assured, I will definitely tell the truth about the great exploits of the princes of the state, and I will never treat Daoming badly. ”

Lu Yao suddenly became a little irritable. The war in Yecheng is over, and all kinds of people have ghosts in their hearts. Lu Yao caught fire in his backyard and ran away from Lu Zhi, who was in a hurry and didn't mention it. And Li Yun's remarks clearly contained a sense of temptation.

Seeing that there were Li Yun's elite subordinates all around, and there were no unrelated pedestrians, Lu Yao smiled and said slowly: "General Li, why do you want to act like this?" ”

Li Yun flashed a look of surprise, and then said, "Daoming, what do you mean?" ”

"Ha, you know what I know, needless to say."

Li Yun shook his head and said, "What is Daoming talking about?" I really don't know. Could it be ...... What's the misunderstanding? ”

Seeing him pretending to be so reserved, Lu Yao couldn't help but feel more and more ridiculous.

What kind of person is King Cai, Li Yun and Lu Yaoju all know very well. Lu Yao has already switched to Yue Shigong's command, but it's okay. Li Yun has accumulated complaints in the past few months, and I am afraid that he will not be able to finish it for three days and three nights. If the beggars had expectations for King Xin Cai when they went east to Yecheng, then all they have now is despair. From a somewhat mysterious point of view, perhaps the new Cai King who was killed by the thieves is the best Xin Cai Wang.

Of course, if the responsibility is investigated according to the laws of this dynasty, the lord will die, and subordinates like Li Yun will be severely punished. But in the years of chaos in the Central Plains, how many eunuchs have died, and who has been punished for the new high-ranking officials? As long as the army is firmly in hand, even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu can't help it. And Li Yun is obviously full of confidence in this.

In the months since they were exiled to Wei County, a considerable part of the 20,000 families and prefectures were organized under the leadership of Li Yun. Although he may not be able to suck carbuncles and lick hemorrhoids, he has not done less to win people's hearts. What's more, Bo Sheng, Yu Ting, Chen Wu and other lieutenants are all his confidants, extremely loyal and reliable. With the death of King Xincai, the situation north of the Yellow River is bound to fall into chaos. Li Yun, who was in power to beg for the army, showed an attitude of incompatibility with the thieves in a timely manner, such as the use of energy efficiency eagle dogs, which should make the imperial court overjoyed, and will definitely become the object of vigorous support and even wooing.

Li Yunqi has always been a bit keen on fame and fortune. It's just that King Xin Cai had no eyes before, and he reused Zhou Liang, Shi Xian and other mediocre people, so that he couldn't get ahead. And now, the waste of the corpse vegetarian meal was swept away by the Jisang thief, and Li Yun finally waited for the opportunity to soar into the sky.

"In that case, General Li, I really should congratulate you." Lu Yao said congratulations in his mouth, but there was no joy in his words. Yecheng was plundered by thieves, and tens of thousands of people were killed, but Li Yun was only thinking about how to take this opportunity to seek a higher status and expand his power...... Maybe he used to be a loyal gentleman, but now what Lu Yao sees is just a mediocre man who is dazzled by power and jue.
