Chapter 5

Wuyin County.

This city is located in the due east of Nanyang. It was established in the early Western Han Dynasty and is under the jurisdiction of Nanyang County. It is connected to Runan County in the northeast and belongs to a gateway in the east of Nanyang County.

The scale of Wuyin City is not small. It is considered a large city in Nanyang County, with a population of more than 10 people, and a radius of about 2 square kilometers. The surrounding walls are high and thick, and these walls are not adobe walls, but bluestone. Made, indestructible.

In history, this is a military fortress, known as a battleground for military strategists.

I heard that there are still many stories about Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, stationed troops here to fight against the Chu army during the Qin and Han Dynasties...

The county office, the study in the backyard.

The study room is furnished in a simple but elegant way. The surrounding windows are tightly closed. A gust of cold wind howls in from the corner of the window, causing a middle-aged man kneeling in front of the desk in the study room to tremble uncontrollably.

"This damn weather, it's too cold!"

The middle-aged man put down the brush in his hand and wrapped his robe a little tighter.

His name is Cai Tu, and his style name is Meng Ting. He is actually only in his early thirties this year, but the white hair between his temples makes him look very old.

Cai Tu’s background is not simple. He was born in the Cai family of Jingzhou family. Although he was only a side branch and a concubine, he was eager to learn since he was a child. Conquered as an official.

The yellow turban chaos in Nanyang, Chu Gong, the county governor, was beheaded by Zhang Mancheng. Qin Jie was ordered to take the position of Nanyang County Governor. make.

Zhang Man's success or failure was quick, but Qin Jie couldn't survive the turmoil, and eventually died in the hands of Zhao Ci, who was rebelled by Jiang Xia's soldiers.

The imperial court sent Zhang Zi to clean up the mess in Nanyang. Zhang Zi was good at calculating and the situation in Nanyang had already been taken care of by Qin Jie. .

He, Cai Tu, is a descendant of Qin Jie, and he was not favored by Zhang Zi at first, but he holds Wuyin County in his hands, and he has more than a thousand soldiers in his hands, and he also relies on the entire Cai family of Jingzhou, so even Zhang Zi dare not touch him casually.

But he knew very well that Zhang Zi was watching him, waiting for him to make a mistake, so he could play a book and directly dismiss him from his position, so he has become more cautious in his actions in the past two years.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk!!!"

At this time, a series of hasty knocks sounded from outside the door.

"who?"

"My lord, you are a subordinate!"

"come in!"

Cai Tunai is a child of a family, he pays great attention to etiquette, he quickly straightened his body, and his face revealed a calm and fearless expression.

"My lord, Xu Thief Cao captured a person in the market last night. After interrogation, this person is a remnant of the Yellow Turban. Finally, Chen Fengte will report it!"

The man who walked in was tall and big, with a strong back and a strong waist, with a strong breath, and he looked like a general. It was Chen Feng, the captain of Wuyin County, whose name was Datong. He also came from a family in Nanjun. With the power of tigers and tigers, he commanded [-] soldiers in the county, and he was Cai Tu's right-hand man.

"The remnants of the Yellow Turban?"

Hearing this, Cai Tu's eyes burst out with a cold killing intent. He had fought many battles with the Yellow Turban Army, and suffered many defeats at the hands of the Yellow Turban General Mu Shan. Back then, Mu Shan led eight thousand troops and entered the dance from Wancheng. Yin, he has very few soldiers in his hands, and even Wuyin City has changed hands. Although he finally took it back, this is still a shame in his heart: "Since it is a remnant, what's the use of keeping it, just kill it! "

"My lord, this person is a little different!"

"What's the difference?"

"He is the number one general under the command of the Yellow Turban General Mushan, Lei Gong!" Chen Feng said in a low voice, "Do you still remember that he was the guy who killed our Wuyin Biyang County soldiers with a big knife back then!"

"What? Is Lei Gong?"

Cai Tu stood up abruptly, his face changed slightly, and in the gloomy complexion, he muttered to himself: "Mu Shan, a general of the personal guard under Zhang Mancheng, fell into a bandit after the Battle of Wancheng, but there was no trace of him. It is Nanyang County He has harassed the counties many times and plundered the caravan items, and Lei Gong, the number one under his command, is no ordinary person, how could he be arrested by the thief Cao!"

"This is exactly what I want to say to the county lord. We were able to arrest Lei Gong this time because of their internal strife!"

Chen Feng said.

"Infighting?" Cai Tu's eyes were bright, which made sense.

"That's right, they were fighting among themselves. Lei Gong seemed to have violated Mushan's rules. Mushan cut off an ear and kicked him out of the house, so he had nowhere to stay. He had to take a dozen of his confidants and venture into the city to take advantage of the dark moon last night. The wind was high, and he was about to rob the Liu family in the east of the city, but Liu's private soldiers not only failed to snatch it successfully, but also injured many people, fled in a hurry, and crashed into the night watchman Cao soldiers !"

Chen Feng reported.

"Did you find out anything?" Cai Tu asked.

"I opened the trial last night and used a lot of torture tools. I have a stubborn mouth and I have been unwilling to reveal one or two things about Mushan's situation!"

"This man is loyal to the Mushan thief!"

Cai Tu stepped forward, facing the cold wind, and said with a sneer, "I'll go meet him personally!"

On the east side of the Wuyin county government office, in a damp and dark dungeon.

The dungeon imprisoned many murderers, and only one person was imprisoned in the innermost room. It was Lei Gong. Lei Gong's hands and feet were all in shackles, his body was dripping with blood, and there were countless wounds, large and small, all of which were scars after being sentenced. Deadly, but aching, he sat on the floor without saying a word, with disheveled hair.

At this very moment, he was muttering: "Being the head of the family is really an exhaustive plan!"

The plan was proceeding as scheduled, and he used the simplest and most direct method to become a prisoner.

"The dog official Cai Tu should be coming next!"

He smiled coldly in his heart, not afraid of the scars on his body at all, and was preparing for the best condition.

"It's really you!"

Sure enough, Cai Tu, the county magistrate of Wuyin, appeared soon. Under the personal protection of the county captain Chen Feng, he walked into the dungeon. He looked at Lei Gong and sneered: "Yellow Turban traitor, you I still remember a certain place!"

"Cai Mengting is just a defeated general, why don't you remember!"

Lei Gong raised his head, squinted at him, and said, "If someone hadn't died for you back then, you would have been the ghost of my sword!"

"A madman!"

Hearing this, Chen Feng was furious, kicked up, and Lei Gong's body hit the wall fiercely, with a smear of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"Datong, come back!"

Cai Tu didn't care about Lei Gong's sarcasm at all, suppressed Chen Feng, looked at Lei Gong, and said: "What happened in the past, a certain family didn't care, today you are a prisoner of a certain family, and your life and death are between a certain thought. If a certain family was you, they wouldn't be quick to talk and lose their lives in vain!"

"There is no need to be afraid of life and death. Lei is only dead. If you take a big knife, you will lose your head at worst!" Lei Gong said coldly.

"Mr. Lei, a certain family respects you as a man. If you are willing to reveal the whereabouts of Mushan, a rebel from the imperial court, maybe a certain family will save your life!" This time is Cai Tu's real intention. He wants to kill Mushan, isn't it? It's been a day or two. Although the dog skin plaster has been lost, its whereabouts are strange, haunted and plundered, and hard to guard against. It has always been a serious problem in Nanyang and must be removed.

"Don't even think about it!" Lei Gong stared coldly, and shouted angrily.

"Lei Gong, if I remember correctly, you were a general under Zhao Zhong's command back then, and you were never favored by Mu Shan. Your ear must have been chopped off by Mu Shan. Your body is hairy and skinny, and you were treated like this by your parents. , why do you have to be affectionate to him!"

Cai Tu followed the guidance, keeping his eyes on the change of Lei Gong's expression. Sure enough, when it came to his ears, Lei Gong's face suddenly showed a touch of resentment and desolation. It seemed that he had made the right bet.

"Cai Mengting, you need to talk more, with a great virtuous teacher, a certain family will never betray the master!"

Lei Gong said firmly.

He is the Yellow Turban Army, and the belief of the Yellow Turban Army is the great virtuous and good teacher. The promises of the Yellow Turban soldiers will be preceded by a sentence of great virtuous and good teachers. Few people dare to violate it. This is a moral issue. Once violated, the entire Yellow Turban Army will Unwelcome.

"Hahaha!"

Cai Tu burst out laughing, with a sarcastic smile: "Mr. Lei, why are you so incomprehensible to the current situation? The yellow scarf has become a thing of the past. Even if you don't tell me, how long can Mu Shan last? If I'm not wrong, Mu Shan You should have run out of food. If you are willing to die with him, this county will never stop you. Tomorrow, this county will behead more than a dozen of your brothers in the market, and then cut off your head and report it to the court. It's a great achievement!"

"you……"

Lei Gong's face turned ferocious, and he looked at Cai Tu fiercely.

"Those who know the times are Junjie!"

Cai Tu looked at Lei Gong, and said quietly: "Lei Gong, the man has made great achievements in the imperial court. If you can sweep out the disasters in Nanyang and wipe out Mushan for this county, you will be a hero. At that time, the county will go to the imperial court to ask for credit for you. Naturally." What's the point of winning an official position, and besides, he Mushan is ruthless and ungrateful to you, so what's the use of you guarding this kindness!"
