Chapter 102 The King in Yellow
It was said that the soldiers were homesick, but Zhang Shun really didn't dare to let the soldiers go back to their hometown to visit. Most of the soldiers under his command were deceived and kidnapped by him and forcibly tied into the chariot. Even though the management was very strict on weekdays, his subordinate Chen Jingzhi often reported to him the occurrence of soldiers fleeing. If the soldiers are really released to go home for a visit, wouldn't it mean that the meat buns beat the dogs and there is no return?
As for the "Purple Golden Liang" retreating from the alliance leader's position, Zhang Shun could tell by thinking on his heels that this matter was planned by Taoist Master Ma. The two foxes, one large and one small, did not need to ventilate at all. They also knew that there was no chance that Zhang Shun would take over the position of leader of the "Purple Golden Liang" at this moment. It was just a way to increase Zhang Shun's worth.
Just like when Lu Junyi was given the position of leader of the village by Song Jiang, he didn't even dare to think about it. He was originally an outsider and had no foundation at all. If you don't know the identity, I'm afraid you may have died long ago without a burial place, and your ashes will be spread out by you.
Zhang Shun's choice was exactly the same as that of Lu Junyi. It seemed to be a sign of humility, but instead he retreated to advance, cooperating with the other party to raise his own worth. As a result, Lu Junyi was able to sit in the second position in Liangshan. Zhang Shun also took the opportunity to publicize it and improve his reputation among the rebels. Think about it, even the alliance leader is optimistic about the person who will be handed over to the position of alliance leader. No matter where he goes, everyone will look at him unconsciously.
When Zhang Shun left Jiyuan County, his troops lined up in sequence. Zhao Lizi's scouts were dispersed, and Jiang He led his 500 elite troops as the vanguard, Zhang Sanbai as the front army, Xiao Qinhu as the left army, Wei Congyi as the right army, Liu Cheng led the cavalry in the rear, and Zhang Shun led the Chinese army and Chen Jindou's heavy supply camp, Ma Ying's female camp and Li Shi'an's artillery camp were in the middle. As for Chen Changzhen, he led more than forty cavalry as a guerrilla while marching and training, and was not included in the calculation of combat power for the time being.
The marching formation was arranged, and Zhang incidentally made others display his own banner with the word "handsome". This flag was written by calligrapher Zhang Shenyan and sewn by Ma Yingniang's female camp. Black characters on a red background, with gold rim. It is one foot and two feet long and eight feet wide. It is picked up with a thick flagpole and hung on an ox cart. Although this flag was much smaller than the real handsome flag, Zhang Shun stood beside him on a horse, still feeling extremely confident in his masculine courage for a moment.
Next to the big flag with the word "handsome", a slightly smaller yellow flag has the four characters "King in Yellow" written on it. The quality of this handwriting is much lower than that of the word "handsome", but it is still neat. It turned out that this was the "King in Yellow" flag that Zhang Shun had hastily made when he threatened to surrender to Meng County. I just found a piece of yellow cloth and wrote four big characters on it. If it gets wet by rain, it will be over.
After using it before, due to the scarcity of materials in ancient times, I was reluctant to throw it away. I originally planned to use it to mend clothes or make a pocket or something like that in the future. Unexpectedly, I turned around and wandered back here again, so I took it again. Come out and show off your power.
Since the last time Zhang Shun beheaded the county magistrate of Nameng County, the new magistrate has not had time to take office, and it is the time when the whole group is leaderless. When Jiang He arrived near the city of Meng County, there was an uproar in the city and he quickly closed the city gate to keep out the bandits.
As a result, some sharp-eyed people in the city saw Zhang Shun's "King in Yellow" banner from a distance, and immediately happily reported it to the city chief. The person in charge of the city is Shi Wenhuan, the head of the Shi clan of Meng County. This man was a Jinshi in the 26th year of Wanli. He served as the inspector, right chief minister and left chief minister of Sichuan. From the second rank of official residence, he was a first-class feudal official, and later he was promoted to a first-class honorary official. After getting old and frail, he retired to his home. Because Meng County was short of a county magistrate, he was asked by a big family in the city to temporarily take charge of urgent matters in Meng County.
Meng County has no soldiers or generals. Shi Wenhuan has experienced many ups and downs in his life as an official. But faced with this situation, it's very frustrating. After all, it's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without straw. When the spy reported that the person who came back was the "King in Yellow" from the previous episode, his eyes lit up and he squinted again, asking everyone to discuss how to deal with it.
"Is there anything else that can be discussed? We all know the character of the 'King in Yellow'. Apart from killing that Bird County Magistrate, Qiu has done nothing wrong! We have no soldiers and no generals, how can we resist? Once you annoy him, he will be killed more often!" When others heard this, they started talking one after another.
Shi Wenhuan seemed to be asleep with his eyes closed. After listening for a long time, someone shook him awake and asked him to make an idea. He was confused for a while, then yawned and said, "Since everyone says so, let's do it, right?"
The other big players looked at each other in confusion after hearing this. Did you hear it or not? Come on, the thieves will come in if you wait any longer, and it will be too late if you open the door again.
Besides, Jiang He was very bellicose under the command of the "Eight King Kongs". Now that he had chosen a new master, he was eager to show off, so he led the vanguard battalion and rushed towards Meng County, who was like a weak woman. As a result, before they could rush forward, the gate of Mengxian County suddenly opened. Dozens of people holding gongs and drums lined up one after another, playing and beating.
Then, a dozen or so squires and sages came out of the city, bringing cattle, sheep, wine and meat to greet them. Then Jiang He came forward on horseback and shouted: "I am."
"I know, I know, stop yelling! Is he a general under the command of the 'King in Yellow'?" We are the gentry of Meng County. We have been looking forward to the king for a long time, so we specially prepared a few glasses of thin wine and several plates of humble dishes to invite the king and others in. Enjoy the city.
Jiang He was shocked when he heard this. How can there be such a principle in the world to open the door and bow down to the thief? Could it be that there is fraud in it? Jiang He quickly sent people to report back to Zhang Shun, and at the same time asked the soldiers to be alert.
Zhang Shun didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this. What kind of fame has Meng County accomplished? He quickly left the team and brought Wukong and Ji Dan to watch the battle. When he arrived at the front of the formation, he saw a bunch of old and frail elderly people opposite. Lined up on the left and right were the loud welcome sounds of gongs and drums. Zhang Shun was a little confused for a while.
When the old men saw Zhang Shun coming out, they cheered: "Oh, the King in Yellow is here, we are looking forward to having you back. I heard that other counties and cities were occupied by thieves. Men were killed and women were captured." It's a humiliation, there are countless casualties, and the people are in dire straits. If you come, our Meng County will be saved!"
Zhang Shun couldn't help but slap his forehead after hearing this, suspecting that he was really the incarnation of the "King in Yellow". Otherwise, how could the enemy's sanity value return to zero?
It turns out that some rogue bandits crossed the Taihang Mountains a few days ago, killed the county magistrate and captured Xiuwu County. Xiuwu County is located to the east of Huaiqing Prefecture, and is on the post route with Meng County. Therefore, Meng County knows the miserable situation in the county, and the big families in the city are scared out of their wits.
Now that I heard that the "King in Yellow" who never did anything wrong before is here, how can I not be happy? After all, if the "King in Yellow Clothes" comes, then the "Yellow Lai'er" will not come.
Thanks to the fans "Ascending the Emperor's Throne" and "Ghost Sword Kai Jiang Li" for their rewards!
