Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After Wen Han decided on the three names, everyone sat down and discussed how to report the battle of Shuanglong Mountain to Yang Hong.  Later, Wenhan remembered a huge loophole, which was the five hundred elites borrowed from Yang Dian.  These five hundred people know the outcome of this battle. If they find that the soldiers from Shuanglong Mountain suddenly disappeared after returning to Jiexian County, they will definitely be suspicious and tell Yang Dian then.  Although Yang Dian is willing to help Wenhan, he cannot guarantee his intention.

    In this regard, Wenhan made a decision, a risky decision.  He asked Pei Yuanshao to gather these five hundred elites alone in one place.  Wenhan talked with him secretly.

    Wen Han ordered the five hundred elite soldiers from Jie County to sit down. Although the elite soldiers from Jie County were a little confused as to why the tooth general suddenly came to them, they knew that soldiers did not need to think too much, so they all sat down immediately.  Wenhan smiled casually and sat down too. This move did not reflect Wenhan's identity, but it seemed a bit affectionate.

    "Haha, today I will discuss my feelings with you, and don't worry about my identity. I ask you, why did you become a soldier?"

    Wenhan looked relaxed as if he was talking about family matters.  After hearing this, the elite members of Jie County were silent for a while. You looked at me and I looked at you, but no one answered.  Wenhan guessed that they didn't dare, fearing that disaster would come from their mouths, so he looked at the hundred generals who commanded these five hundred elites.  The hundred-man general was stunned for a moment, and just when he was about to stand up and answer, Wenhan waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down and speak.

    "In the imperial court, there was a struggle for power among relatives and eunuchs within the ruling class. They took turns to monopolize power, exploiting and oppressing the people. The landowners seized the land and made it appear that 'houses were spread across the states and counties, and the fields were connected to the country.' We have nothing to do."  The land is arable, there is no food to eat, and there are still young and old at home, so they have to join the army to earn a meager military salary just to make ends meet for the family. "

    Hundreds of people will gritted their teeth and said, Wen Han saw this man's integrity and courage, admired him in his heart, and became interested in him.

    "What's your name?"

    "My lord, General Bingya, my name is Wang Jing."

    Wenhan thought quickly in his mind and was a little disappointed to see that there was no such name among the famous generals of the Three Kingdoms.  But then he laughed at himself for being so whimsical. It would not be so easy to see this general unless there was great luck or opportunity.  However, we should not underestimate others because of this. Li Qiang is a good example. Although he does not appear on the list of famous generals, he is loyal and capable.

    "Wang Jingru is telling the truth. You dare to say these words, which proves that you are trustworthy in me. I am very happy. I also ask you, do you think this is what Wang Bairen said?"

    The elites in Jie County were silent for a while, or they became bolder when they saw Wang Jing taking the lead, and everyone began to agree, vomiting bitterness and explaining the reasons.  Without him, almost all of them are related to the corruption of the current imperial court, the unscrupulous powerful people, who are forced to join the army for their livelihood, etc.  Of course, some are for the purpose of accumulating merit and becoming an officer.  However, as soon as these people said this, they were questioned by others, saying that in this era, the powerful hold power, and even if they have military achievements and no certain background, how can they be promoted.  At most, he is just a little tooth general, harmless.

    "Do you believe me?"

    After everyone finished the discussion, Wenhan looked serious and asked solemnly.

    "We have heard the name of General Wen Ya, and we also know about the incident at Wangyue Tower. We have all heard about Wen Ya's grievances against the poor families in the world, and the hatred he received from the Yuan family in Runan. General Wen Ya is a man of great righteousness.  All the poor people in Jie County worship Wen Yahuang."

    Although he didn¡¯t know what kind of medicine Wenhan was selling in his gourd, Wang Jing still said what he was thinking.  Wang Jing was unanimously recognized by the people below, and everyone nodded in agreement.

    Wenhan suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to the five hundred elites of Jiexian County. This move immediately frightened these people. Although Wenhan came from a poor family, he had achievements and reputation, and his status was much more noble than them. They  How can I accept this great gift?

    "Don't be surprised. Wen Bufan's move is for the future of the 2,300 people under his command. I have offended the powerful, and this time I came to Shuanglong Mountain to suppress the bandits, it is a conspiracy to kill my life. I thank my officers and soldiers to work together with you.  With help, we can achieve a great victory. But this victory cannot be seen by those powerful people, so it must be kept secret."

    "General Wen Ya should not do this. Although I don't know the righteousness, I know the integrity. General Wen Ya is a role model for us poor people. We are willing to use Wen Ya to look up to the horse. Are you right?"

    Wang Jing probably understood Wenhan's intention, understood it mentally, and respected Wenhan on weekdays.  He kept doing nothing at the moment, encouraging his subordinates to join Wenhan's gang.

    "That's right. When I was in Jie County, I heard that General Wen Ya once said that I should be extraordinary in the world, so why should I be so humble? I will keep these words in my heart. I have admired General Wen Ya for a long time, and I am willing to use him as General Wen Ya.  Follow the lead! ¡±

    "Yes. The rich and powerful families treat us like pigs and dogs. I heard that Wen Ya will treat his subordinates as family members. If we follow such a person, are we going to be like pigs and dogs?"

    Some people who were familiar with Wang Jing immediately agreed.  As for those who didn't say anything, those people were mostly afraid of the bleak prospects and their treatment.

      Wen Han must ensure that no one of these five hundred people will be left behind, otherwise all his efforts will be wasted. He then said: "Thanks to the love of all the heroes, Wen is willing to be the person in charge and plan a future for you. As long as you are willing to join  All of them will be treated the same as the Black Wind Cavalry and the Guards, and they will be given half a tael of land and houses per month. However, I don¡¯t have much land and cannot distribute it, but I can keep it in mind and hope that you will pay it back in the future.  As a human being, I will establish a basis for you.¡±

    "This kind of treatment is several times better than what the imperial court can give you. If you refuse again, I, Wang Jing, will be the first to sever ties with you!"

    Wang Jing stood up and looked around with sharp eyes. Those who had not expressed their intention before saw the generous treatment and the pressure from Wang Jing, and all of them agreed.

    "Hahaha. Mr. Wen is here to thank you all again for your generosity." Wen Han solemnly saluted again, and the five hundred elite soldiers from Jie County, led by Wang Jing, quickly returned the gift.

    After Wenhan chatted with the five hundred elites for a while, he called Wang Jing and gave him some instructions, and then asked him to give them to his trusted subordinates.  Then bring Wang Jing into the cottage hall.

    In the hall, Guan Yu, Xu Huang and Pei Yuanshao had been waiting for a long time. As for Li Qiang and Zhou Cang, they were preparing to open gambling houses in various counties and were not present.  When Guan Yu saw Wen Han approaching, he immediately asked: "How is the conversation going, my dear brother?"

    "Well. Most of them are willing to vote, and this is all because of the help of Brother Wang Jing."

    Wenhan responded lightly, seeming to have some scruples in his heart.  Wang Jing, who was standing aside, looked at Wenhan's face and said, "General Wenya, is he worried about loyalty issues and leaking the news?"

    "Hey people's hearts are separated from each other. The matter is so important that I have to be cautious and cautious."

    Wenhan sighed, feeling powerless.

    "Bufan. If there are some people who dare not guarantee their loyalty, we might as well break them up and join Zhou Cang and Li Qiang, and then let Zhou Cang and Li Qiang spy on them. When we go back this time, Bufan has already planned to win miserably.  Tell people, all you have to do is report to Yang Hong and fight fiercely with the thieves, killing most of them."

    Guan Yu thought for a while and suggested to Wenhan.  Wen Han's eyes lit up. It seemed that Guan Yu was quite intelligent. No wonder he would become the Lord of Jingzhou in the future.

    Wang Jing frowned, not knowing what Guan Yu meant, and looked at Wen Han doubtfully.  Wenhan immediately briefly told Wang Jing the plan. Wang Jing was indeed capable of being a general with hundreds of men. After listening to it, he understood the general idea.

    "General Wenya just asked me to tell the people he trusts to pay attention to whether the people around him are doing anything wrong. Why don't I go back and pretend to be a test, and then help General Wenya deal with them secretly."

    Wang Jing is helping Wenhan completely solve his future problems.  If Wang Jing is willing to cooperate and test his subordinates, it would be best, so that Wen Han can calm down.  Moreover, Wang Jing's move was a declaration of surrender. If he helped Wen Han solve those details, he would have completely offended those powerful people and stood opposite them. If they met again, they would fight to the death.

    "Wang Jing, if you treat me with a martyr's heart, I will definitely live up to you! If you disobey this, you will be struck by lightning!" Wenhan could not have imagined that Wang Jing was willing to do this for him.

    "Wen Ya will take back these words quickly. How can I, the king, be worthy of such an oath?"

    Wang Jing¡¯s expression changed and he said quickly.

    "You deserve it! Wang Jing, I leave this matter to you."

    Wang Jing was deeply moved when he saw Wenhan's true feelings, and secretly said that the decision he made was the right one.  Wenhan asked Wang Jing to take a seat, and the troublesome matter was solved, and the next step would be easier.

    Wenhan arranged everything after discussing with everyone.  Time passed by like a fleeting moment, and three days passed in a row.  After Wang Jing returned, he pretended to be plotting to betray Wen Han. As expected, some of his tricks couldn't be tolerated and exposed their flaws.  There were thirty-five people in total, some from wealthy families in Jie County, and some secretly sent by Yang Hong.

    Wang Jing captured them all, dealt with them secretly, and handed their heads to Wen Han for confirmation.  Although Wenhan couldn't bear it, he was helpless. After taking a look, he asked Wang Jing to bury them.  Wang Jing gave another list of 200 people to Wenhan. These people were ambiguous and could not guarantee their loyalty.

    Wenhan organized these two hundred people into the command of Zhou Cang and Li Qiang, and ordered Zhou Cang and Li Qiang to break them up and monitor them separately.  In these three days, Zhou Cang and Li Qiang were ready to open gambling houses. They planned to open them in ten counties around Yang County and Jie County first. In order not to attract attention, Wen Han ordered Zhou Cang and Li Qiang to leave in batches.

    As soon as these men and horses left, Wen Han's men and horses immediately decreased a lot. Wen Han asked Xu Huang to count the number of people. There were 775 people in total.  Wenhan was afraid that after returning, Yang Hong would suspect that the Black Wind Cavalry and the escort team were not injured or injured, so he took some people out of them and asked them to go ahead and secretly go back to Jiexian County.  In the end, Wenhan only had 500 men left.??.

    A raging fire broke out in the Shuanglong Mountain village. Wen Han ordered his men to wipe their faces with sand and smoke, and they were all blackened by the fire. They all looked exhausted and battle-hardened.

    Wenhan glanced at the blazing mountain stronghold, smiled, and then gave the order, leading the troops down Shuanglong Mountain and walking towards Yang County.

    When the magistrate of Yang County learned that Wen Han had returned from a tragic victory, he saw that Wen Han's troops had left with a thousand soldiers and horses, but when they returned there were only 500 left, with more than half of the casualties.  And each of them looked neither human nor ghost, so he quickly comforted Wen Han.  And some materials were given as compensation.

    After Wenhan¡¯s soldiers and horses rested for a night, the magistrate of Yang County recorded the battle report, gave Wenhan the record of the battle, and asked Wenhan to take it back to the magistrate of Jiexian County, Yang Hong.  Wenhan wanted this document to convince Yang Hong and the Yuan family of Runan of his tragic victory. After chatting pretentiously with the magistrate of Yang County for a while, he gathered his troops and returned to Jie County.
