Chapter 1014: Independence and Vassalage (1)
Zhang Zhongjun took the four bean soldiers and cautiously returned to Beihuang Village, looking at the Takegami Village tree that came to greet him with a ticket of guards, and couldn't help but smile and nodded.
"Congratulations on the safe return of the lord. Muraki Takegami saluted respectfully.
Zhang Zhongjun couldn't help but say with emotion: "Yes, I finally came back safely." ”
No wonder Zhang Zhongjun is so emotional, it can be said that his road back to the village in Boyang Town is really thrilling. Not to mention that the side of Boyang Town was originally hostile to Zhang Zhongjun, a guy who had been stationed in the army, and the order issued by the Heyuan family to hunt the retainers of the Zichuan family was even more of a chase and kill order.
It was also from Boyang Town that Zhang Zhongjun realized that the Zichuan family was completely destroyed, and he didn't expect that the surrounding martial artists were so wary of the Zichuan family, an upstart.
As long as you listen to the rumors, the Heyuan family actually led the martial artists around the Zichuan family as soon as the Zichuan family became the county lord, and began to plan the Zichuan family, you can understand that the Heyuan family, the owner of the Heyuan county town, regarded the Zichuan family as a thorn in the flesh early on.
But in the face of the encirclement network of the entire county, the Zichuan family was still unashamedly proud of the prestige of becoming the county lord in five years, indulging in their own awesome past, while digesting their stomachs with peace of mind, while suppressing the martial artists in the county, they looked like they wanted to make a pure purple gold modern.
But he didn't expect that he, an upstart, had long been firmly targeted by the martial artists in the county and the county-level martial artists in the entire county.
From this point of view, I also know that the secret agent ninja of the Zichuan family is not very good, after all, the alliance led by the Heyuan family has been more than a year, and for such a long time, there must be clues revealed in the concealment, but the secret agent of the Zichuan family just has no information to return.
It may be that the Zichuan family's ninja skills are garbage, or it may be that the Heyuan family bought the Zichuan family's ninja system as soon as they made a move. Of course, everyone is more inclined to the skill garbage of the Shikawa ninja, after all, the matter of buying a samurai's intelligence system is too terrifying.
Of course, the ninja skills of the Zichuan family are too rubbish, and it is for the anti-Zichuan alliance formed by the Heyuan family, which only needs to be compared to understand that your Zichuan family used to be the village master, and he became the county lord in five years, and those members of the Heyuan family and the alliance are either the county masters for hundreds of years, or the county masters for hundreds of years, and the worst ones are the town masters for hundreds of years.
With such a big time gap and status gap, the ninja system of the Anti-Zichuan Alliance is certainly not comparable to such an outbreak of the Zichuan family. So for more than a year, the anti-Zichuan family alliance has become more and more stable, and the Zichuan family has not reacted at all, which is very normal.
When Zhang Zhongjun heard the news, he knew that the Zichuan family had been completely crushed in terms of intelligence, and he couldn't help but sigh, no wonder the Zichuan family would collapse one day, and there would be no chance to return to the original at all.
As for what happened to the governor of the Zichuan family and the important ministers and direct soldiers he led? Zhang Zhongjun didn't need to investigate, when he was passing by in Boyang Town in disguise, he saw the heads inserted in the wooden sticks on both sides of the road and the wooden platoons with their names written on them, and looked at these warriors who wanted to meet at home and didn't have enough status, all of them turned into hideous heads and were hung by this to show the public, Zhang Zhongjun couldn't help but sigh.
If you inquire casually, the local residents will happily show off how many powerful samurai and mages suddenly attacked the Zichuan family, which was about to surround it, and wiped out all the middle forces of the Zichuan family with an extremely easy blow.
Those warriors of the Zichuan family with identities naturally unceremoniously cut off their heads to show the public, but they were those who were lightly packed up and sold into slavery.
That's right, although the anti-Zichuan alliance plotted against the Zichuan family, although Boyang Town is also a member of the anti-Zichuan alliance, although the alliance helped to get rid of the Zichuan family and keep Boyang Town, but Boyang Town did not gain any benefits except for protecting the large area of reclaimable land that appeared due to the source of the crypt.
Those warriors of the Zichuan family who wanted to surrender after the collapse of the military formation were all unceremoniously cut off by the alliance, for the worst alliance members who were at the level of hundreds of years of town and city masters, these nouveau riche samurai were not worth their take-in, after all, they were all enemies, and it took time to cultivate them, and he had to cut the interests of the old people in the family, and finally he had to beware of the rebellion of these people who had joined the city, which was a lot of trouble. In this case, it would be better to simply kill the matter completely, which can not only reduce the existence of rebels in the future, but also increase the meritorious service.
As for why Mao didn't let these warriors be absorbed by the martial artists in Boyang Town? Just kidding! Just after cleaning up an upstart who had risen from being the village head to the county lord in five years, should he condone a burst household that had jumped from the town level to the county level? All these manpower must not be left to the martial artists of Boyang Town, and what he doesn't want must not be given to others!
Therefore, it is impossible for Boyang Town to absorb a Zichuan family's serving warriors, and the Zichuan family's warriors who served them on the battlefield were all ordered to be handed over and beheaded. As for the seized loot, there was also no piece of the pie in Boyang Town, and all of them were divided up on the spot by the merchants who followed the alliance.
The alliance killed all the people who were the warriors of the Zichuan family, and specially issued a hunt and kill order for this purpose, of course, in order not to cause big trouble, this chase and kill order was only valid for the Zichuan family samurai who were wandering on the road, and the Zichuan family samurai who returned to their own Zhixing were not among the targets of this order. But there is also a requirement, the warriors of the Zichuan family who return to the territory must immediately declare their independence from the Zichuan family, and then whether you are independent or submit to other samurai, it doesn't matter.
The samurai are so sad, it's because of the problem of identity, and the Shigaru of the Zichuan family is a little luckier, the alliance did not kill these ashigaru, but treated the injured, and then demoted these lively ashigaru to slaves, and the members of the alliance each divided a batch and took it away.
Well, Boyang Town, where the front line of the war is located, and where the bait is, still hasn't gotten a piece of the spoils. Obviously, in the eyes of the alliance, Lao Tzu let you keep the newly emerged arable land for the sake of the alliance members, and don't even think about other benefits!
After the order of the alliance was issued, people like Zhang Zhongjun wandered on the road with escorts, but they were all the objects of staring at the surrounding forces, which forced Zhang Zhongjun to hide in Tibet and waste a lot of effort to return to this northern deserted village.
