Chapter 159 The Pang Family Has a Son Named Lingming (Please ask for a monthly ticket)

Dong Bi arrived in Longxi County in the evening.

It was already half dark, and there were sentries walking back and forth on the top of the city.When Dong Pi and his party were seen from a distance, someone immediately rang the big bell on the city gate tower.

With a hint of coldness, the solemn bell echoed across the sky.

After Li Xiangru heard the bell, he immediately led his people to the city gate.

Looking at the past under the dim light, I saw that the people under the city were all Qiang soldiers.

"Who is in the city?"

"We are sent by Ehe Haoshuai, and I have something important to report to Lord Li!"

There were people in the city, and someone answered loudly.The Han dialect with a strong Qiang accent does not seem to be suspicious.

Li Xiangru said: "I am Li Xiangru, what's the matter between E and Haoshuai?"

"My lord, this matter is of great importance. The commander-in-chief ordered me to report to my lord alone... Please also open the city gate and let me in."

Some staff members observed for a while, but could not see any clues.

"My lord, it seems to be all right."

"In that case, let them in!"

While talking, Li Xiangru secretly made a gesture with his hands behind his back.

When the people under the city approached, the suspension bridge also rumbled down.Suddenly, Li Xiangru shouted, "Shoot the arrow!"

All of a sudden, locusts fell like raindrops, and the people in the city shouted and neighed for a while, and became a mess.

At the same time, the city gate opened.

A group of troops came out, led by three generals, they were Li Xiangru's three sons, Li Kai, Li Gu, and Li Fang.

The three sons of the Li family are well-known in Longxi and are famous for their bravery, so there is a saying of the Li family's three tigers.

These three people rushed out of the city, met Dong Pi's men and horses and killed them.

Li Xiangru scolded at the top of the city: "Stupid thief, you deceive me that there is no one in Longxi, and dare to come to deceive the city... As everyone knows, I have an agreement with E and Haoshuai. If you come here at his order, how can you not come here?" What about the signal he made an appointment with me earlier?"

When Dong Bi heard it, he knew it was not good.

He wanted to open the city gate by fraud, but he didn't know that Li Xiangru was so cunning.

But it's normal to think about it, Li Xiangru is also from a Xiaolian background, how can he be so easily fooled?

Over the past year, with consecutive victories, Dong Bi also unconsciously underestimated the enemy.Especially subduing Jia Xu made him a little smug... He really underestimated the heroes of this world.Since it is not allowed to cheat to open the city gate, let's force it.

Just as he was about to go out to meet him, Dian Wei took the lead and stopped the three tigers of the Li family.

Dong Bi dialed Diao Ling and sternly shouted at the top of the city: "Li Xiangru, thanks to you, you are still known as a celebrity, and you eat the imperial salary, but do rebellious things. ... If someone like you is disloyal, disrespectful, ignorant of propriety, justice, and shame, if someone catches you, you will die a terrible death."

This swearing, but it was full of fun.

Dong Bi was half-literate and half-white. While killing the enemy, he scolded all eighteen generations of Li Xiangru's ancestors. Li Xiangru was so ashamed that he scolded him, and he kept shouting, "Kill them, kill them..."

The previous dense arrows did not cause too much damage to Dong Bi and others.

All in horse armor, all in double armor, the men and horses led by Dong Pi are the most elite trolls under his command.

Although there were not as many people as the other party, they were entangled together, and the Longxi guards retreated in succession.

Dian Wei even stopped the three tigers of the Li family.The two halberds flew up and down, killing the three tigers like sick cats.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Xiangru shouted: "Ming Jin, withdraw troops!"

Before the words were finished, a young general suddenly walked out from behind, holding a big knife and shouting sharply: "We are all big men, can you surrender to the thief? Li Xiangru deserves to die... If you still have the heart to be ashamed, you should kill him with me." Dead traitor."

With one cut, Li Xiangru was cut in half.

Where did Li Xiangru think that he would be attacked by someone in his own courtyard?Decapitated on the spot...

A group of personal soldiers immediately surrounded the young general, but most of the soldiers above the city gate were guards of the Han family.They don't have much opinion, whoever the Lord will follow, they will follow.Now that the main general is dead, and the officers and soldiers from the city have arrived, it is a good time to clean up his charges.

For a while, the city gate was in chaos.

The county soldiers under the city retreated steadily, and Dian Wei chopped down two of the three Li family tigers with his halberd, and then raised his hand and flew out a small halberd, killing the last sick cat.

Dong Bi led his men and horses into the city, but did not encounter much resistance...

The battle lasted less than a stick of incense before it was all over.

About a hundred people were killed or injured under Dong Bi's command, but the casualties of the officers and soldiers in the county were quite heavy.

Some were killed by Dong Bi's men, while others were killed by each other.There were also some who were more unlucky and were killed by both sides without even knowing what happened. It can be said that the city gate caught fire and affected the fish in the pond.Dong Bi sat on his horse and watched a young general come down from the city gate.The big knife in his hand looked very weird, but it was also very familiar.

Elephant Nose Gu Yue Knife!

This is the weapon used by Huang Zhong...

Before Dong Pi could speak, the young general put the sword on the ground and knelt down on one knee, "The sinner, Pang De, was blinded by the traitor and surrendered to the thief. Today, I will kill the thief, Li Xiangru, and beg the general to punish him."

Well, Bond...

Dong Bi turned over and got off the horse, but suddenly his body shook.

Pretending to be relaxed, he handed the one-legged bronze man to Dong Tie who was beside him, and helped Pound up, "Don't be like this, general. It is really a great achievement to kill Li Xiangru today. You are not a general, but a Bai Shen is the governor of Hedong, the son of Zuo Zhonglang general Dong Zhuo. Hearing about the rebellion, he led his troops here, but he didn't expect the general to understand the righteousness and take the lead."

After finishing speaking, he said to everyone: "Everyone, get up... I believe that the court only pursues the leader, and this matter has nothing to do with you."

The title of Governor of Hedong is not so good.

But the title of General Zuo Zhonglang is different.

Everyone is from Longxi, and Dong Zhuo started his family from Longxi, so everyone has heard of it.Especially the Battle of Yingchuan really brought Dong Zhuo's reputation to a peak.And Dong Bi, also became famous because of a series of things.

Pang De was overjoyed when he heard that, knowing that it was sold to him.

"Young Master's great kindness, I will keep it in my heart."

Dong Bi's meaning is very clear, that is, Pang De and others did not rebel, but were deceived by Li Xiangru.Now that he knew the truth, he immediately killed Li Xiangru.In this way, not only were these people innocent, but they even made a miraculous achievement.

At the moment, the soldiers all over the city are rejoicing.

Originally, Pang De's status in Longxi County was not high, he was just a family uncle.

What is a doorman? Simply put, he is a gatekeeper with dozens of gatekeepers under his command.Seeing that Dong Bi was amiable and amiable, although he looked ugly, he didn't have the slightest arrogance of an official's son.In addition, Dong Bi's reputation is not too small. Pound has heard of it, and now being supported by Dong Bi so kindly, how can he not be excited.

Dong Bi was also clean and neat, beheading all those who were close to Li Xiangru.

On the contrary, the officers at the middle and lower levels, who were promoted and promoted, all promised great benefits.Pang De also changed from an uncle to Dong Pi's army commander, and it can be said that he got the most benefits.Now following Dong Bi to the government office, on the way, Dong Bi seemed to inadvertently ask, "Brother Pang, how old are you this year, do you have a sign?"

"My lord, the final general will be seventeen this year! Thanks to the elders, there is already a sign, and it will be clear."

"Pound, Pang Lingming!"

Dong Bi cried out in his heart: "It really is him..."

Who is this Pound?How it is recorded in the official history, Dong Bi can't remember clearly... But in the Romance storytelling, this person was once the number one under Ma Chao of Xiliang Jinma Chao, and later surrendered to Cao Cao, and he was deeply loved by Cao Cao.

A person who can fight against second brother Guan on an equal footing is definitely a fierce general.

Later, Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army, and was finally captured but vowed not to surrender.After his death, Cao Cao even cried with snot and tears... It's just that Dong Pi didn't expect that he would meet Pang De in this Longxi County city, God helped me.

In Dong Bi's impression, Pang De is not only a general, but also familiar with the art of war.

Nowadays, what Dong Bi lacks the most is such a character.But it's just an old one, it seems that there are still some deficiencies.

Dong Bi has made up his mind to hold Pang De in his hands.

A group of people came to sit in the government office, Dian Wei sat at the top of Dong Pi, and the first seat at the bottom was Pang De.

Anyone with a little discernment can tell that this time Uncle Mun probably hugged his thick thighs.

Although Pang De refused again and again, Dong Bi insisted on letting him sit beside him.Then he ordered someone to report the situation in Longxi County, but he was really surprised when he heard that.

Li Xiangru has been in Longxi County for five years. According to Longxi's establishment, he can be equipped with [-] county soldiers.

But in fact, there are only 2000 troops in the county, and most of them are neglected in training, and less than [-] can go into battle.

It's too cruel to eat empty pay.

Dong Bi couldn't help but feel a little worried. He only brought 1000 people, including [-] trolls. They were for him to charge, and they were really not suitable for defending the city.

Right now, there's a lot to worry about.

Firstly, whether Li Xiangru still has cronies in the city, and secondly, the Huangzhong army from Jincheng may arrive at any time.

As for the troops attacking Lintao, in Dong Bi's view, it is impossible to succeed.Not only did Lintao have sufficient sources of soldiers, but there was also a poisonous man named Jia Xu staying there.It is definitely difficult for Lang Qiang's men to win.As for the burning people who went to attack the ranch, Dong Bi didn't even think about it.Although there are not many soldiers and horses in the pasture, there is no problem in guarding the pasture.

Shao Dangren is good at field battles, but not at fortifications.

And Laowang Shaodang is also a brave and foolhardy person. The combat effectiveness of his men and horses has been taught by Dong Bi as early as two years ago.

But if the defeated army retreats, it will also cause trouble.

The most urgent task is to replenish the army source of the county...

Pang De made a suggestion, "Young Master, although there are not many people in the city, there are many Qiang people living in the city who can be recruited."

"Qiang people?"

Dong Bi frowned, "Most of the rebels are Qiang people, the Qiang people in the city, can you believe it?"

"Young Master, I don't know that most of the Qiang people living in the county have already migrated here in the early years, and they have lived here for several generations. Although they are Qiang people, they admire the culture of my Han family in their bones. Recruiting with a lot of money, and at the same time defending their homeland, they will definitely be willing...Young master can order someone to tell them that if the Qiang people break through the county, they will definitely kill and plunder wildly. At that time, their homeland will be difficult to protect, and even their lives will be in danger...Young master Say something nice, and those people will agree."

"But this can't be solved in a short while? Besides, how can I gather so much money in a short time?"

"Don't worry, my lord, Li Xiangru has been the prefect here for five years, and he has amassed countless fortunes, which can be used as rewards."

Dong Bi nodded, "Since that's the case...Brother, you'll have to deal with this matter. With Dong Tie's assistance, you must resolve this matter as soon as possible. Ling Ming, is there any other way besides recruiting local Qiang people? Time But it's urgent."

"This one……"

Pang De thought for a while, and said softly: "There are still some people, but I don't know if you dare to use it."

"Tell me first!"

"Many people have been imprisoned in the prison in Longxi. Most of them are due to tax arrears, and a few are criminals...the total number is hundreds of people. Li Xiangru once promulgated a decree called the Law of Redemption .As long as you are a prisoner, you can redeem your crime with money. However, Longxi is also a place of bitter cold, and food and clothing are still a problem for the people. How can there be so much money for atonement? In this way, the prison will be overcrowded... If you are willing, you can try to send They recruit."

"This... can be considered!"

Dong Bi pondered for a moment, and felt that this matter was not unmanageable.

"At the same time, you can also recruit those criminals to serve as death squads. It is clearly stated that if they participate in the war, their previous crimes will be wiped out, and if they refuse to join, they will be executed on the spot. Although those people are all bullying good guys, they are afraid Very dead."

"As Ling Ming said..."

Dong Bi immediately gave orders to get everyone in the hall busy.

Then he took Pang De out of the government office, "Let's go to the prison together. If Ling Ming knows the situation, those innocent people might as well be released first, so as to calm the hearts of the people in the city. As for the others, hehe ,we'll talk about it then."

Pang De readily agreed, and went to the prison with Dong Bi.

Along the way, Dong Bi chatted with Pang De intentionally or unintentionally.

The ancestor of Pound was indeed one of Ma Yuan's four great generals, a descendant of Pang's family.But after Ma Yuan died, they went their separate ways.Pound's ancestral home was originally in Liangzhou, so he returned to his hometown.Since then, most of the Pang family served in the army, and some people even accompanied Dingyuan Hou Banchao on an expedition to the Western Regions... So far only Pang De is left.

Pound has an old mother who got married last year and married a local girl.

Dong Bi thought for a while, "Lingming, Liangzhou is in turmoil now, and there will definitely be a big battle. Longxi will definitely become a battlefield. It is really not safe for your mother and wife to live here... In my opinion, it is better to move Go to my ranch. Of course, it depends on your decision, and I don’t force it. I just think that the old man has worked hard all his life, and it’s not beautiful if something goes wrong. My ranch is also considered peaceful. My grandma is old and needs people Come and accompany."

Pound was very grateful for hearing this.

In Romance, Pound is a very shrewd person.

It's a pity that he is still a young man, his martial arts are just mature, but his thinking is not very mature.

And Dong Bi also said that he was not reluctant, which made Pang De less wary.Sending mother and wife to the ranch is indeed a safe way... Pound thought for a while, "Thank you for your kindness, son, but I have to go back and ask mother what she means."

"Okay, anyway, there is no rush."

Dong Bi tried his best to look indifferent, and came to the prison with Pang De.

The prison was indeed overcrowded, and Dong Bi had a general understanding of the situation by asking questions without saying a word.

The further you go, the fewer prisoners there are.

The jailer said: "My lord, the prisoners here are all serious criminals, most of whom have committed heinous crimes and are about to be executed."

Dong Bi nodded, thinking about how to use these death row prisoners.

His eyes accidentally swept across a cell, but unexpectedly found that a middle-aged man was sitting in that cell.

From his appearance, he was not the kind of man with a savage face and a hideous face.

On the contrary, in Dong Bi's eyes, this person looked quite extraordinary.

Especially in his eyes, there was a kind of light shining.Dong Bi had seen that kind of light before, in Zhang Ji's eyes.

"Who is that?"

The jailer's face suddenly became extremely ugly, a little pale, "My lord, please don't provoke that guy, he's a lunatic."

"madman?"

Pang De said: "Young master, I know this person. I captured him half a year ago. This person is in the cemetery. He dug out the corpse that had just been buried, split open his brain, opened his stomach... I caught him At that time, he was digging out a dead man's heart. When he was interrogated, he still said that he was a doctor."

Obviously, Pound also had some fear of this man.

Sounds like a madman...

Dong Bi turned to leave, but suddenly seemed to remember something.He hesitated for a moment, and walked to the door of the cell regardless of Pound's obstruction.

The man in the cell had disheveled hair and disheveled clothes.

When he saw Dong Bi, he was startled for a moment, then his eyes lit up, but they soon dimmed.

Dong Bi thought for a while and said softly, "Lang Zhong, what's your name?"

----------------

Who is this doctor, hehe, everyone must be able to guess.
