Chapter 45

In Zhao County at this time, it can be said that there are three camps existing at the same time.

One is to support the royal government.

For example, Wu Sheng and others who have entered the system and soldiers such as Tiangang Tianzhu will naturally follow their own path to the end.

And some people in the Tianfu Army, as well as the villagers surrounding the recruitment point today, can also be regarded as temporary supporters.

As long as the royal government does not show signs of decline, it has never been defeated.

The second type is most of the remaining people in Zhao County.

Since Wang Zheng entered Zhao County, he has done nothing to them in the past few days. For these people, it doesn't matter if you don't invade my one-acre three-point land, whether you are a prince, an officer or a rebel or a bandit.

Therefore, they are currently in a state of neither liking nor dislike for Wang Zheng and his army, and they are more like watching with cold eyes.

Even if they are extremely pessimistic about the future of Wangzheng, they will not join in support, but they will not take action to resist.

In a sense, the Mi family forces headed by Mi Ling can also be regarded as this kind of people.

Of course, what Mi Ling didn't know was that Wang Zheng had already discovered the account of inaccurate information and recorded it secretly.

As for the third type, it is another group of people.

When attacking the county government, Wu Sheng went on a killing spree against the gentry and gentry in Zhao County, not only the whole family, but also the masters and servants, killing them all.

It should be known that the upper class of the Eastern Han Dynasty, no matter the county, county or village, once took root in one place, it will be passed down for generations. After such a long time, it can be said that the roots are intertwined and deeply rooted.

It is not easy to wipe out all its relationship forces in one fell swoop.

At this time, a house in Zhao County.

Silent night.

The footsteps of the Tianjun's search passed by in a hurry, and each sound was particularly distinct in the silence.

Even though the sound was extremely slight after the doors were separated, every time it sounded, everyone in the lobby could not help but hold their breath and speak softly.

When the sound of footsteps faded away and everyone was terrified, an old man on the main seat spoke again:

"Lu Shu, are you sure that as long as you pay the money, the gates of the city will be opened for me tomorrow?"

The host took the lead, and other guests in the hall also echoed:

"Yes, we are willing to contribute some money, but the key is whether these thieves can be trusted?"

"Miaowen's words are very close to my heart, and I am also worried that these rebels will not do anything after collecting money."

"Collecting money and doing nothing? That's still relatively light. What if we not only don't let us go, but also turn our faces and deny people, what should we do? Don't we take the initiative to give others a handle, which is just in line with the culprit's will, and we will be wiped out directly , isn't this delivered to your door by yourself?"

"The price is too expensive. There are more than 100 pieces of five baht. Calculated by the head, my family is running for more than a thousand!"

At this time, the subject who was frothing all over the place was standing in the middle of the hall. He was about thirty years old, and his facial features were correct. It was just a scar that slanted under it, but it destroyed the overall senses, giving people a sense of ferocity and brutality.

This Lu Shu is an old rascal in Zhao County, he is not very old, but he has been a local snake for more than ten years, and he has dozens of followers.

He also participated in the looting after the Celestial Army entered the city that day, but he was cunning, quick to see the opportunity, and detected something wrong early on, but escaped the subsequent cleansing.

What made everyone pay more attention was that when Wang Zheng was recruiting troops today, Lu Shu had placed a dozen of his men into the Heavenly Army.

Now when it comes to the person who understands the movements of the Heavenly Army best, he can be regarded as the leader of all.

Lu Shu looked at the urgent eyes, with a natural smile on his face, but secretly complacent in his heart.

You bastards, in the past, your eyes were higher than the top, and you didn't even look at me. I didn't expect that there would be a day when you begged me so lowly.

He ignored others, and only smiled confidently at the elders:
"Don't worry, Mr. Zuo, my path is absolutely reliable!"

"When my subordinates joined the bandit army, they received my order early on. Now seven of them have participated in the defense of the city gate, and even gave some blood as gifts to several bandit leaders. After some deliberate conversation, they got This way of life."

As he said that, he deliberately explained: "These people are not convinced by the rebel king's government at all. They thought that if this yellow-mouthed boy led the rebellion, there would be no future, let alone a way out."

"Especially that traitor killed people for no reason yesterday in the school grounds, and many of them were brothers and relatives of these bosses. Such atrocities made everyone even more dissatisfied."

"Because of this, many people in this bandit army are leaving now because they want to make some money and seek opportunities."

"The group of people who are in charge of guarding the city gate have long thought of this, so when my subordinates go, they hit it off immediately. This is our chance."

After hearing Lu Shu's remarks, everyone on the field nodded their heads, feeling quite reasonable.

You must know that there were quite a few of them present on the school field that day, and it was hard to understand Wang Zheng's behavior even though they witnessed it with their own eyes.

You must know that in the chaotic times of the end of the dynasty, everyone knows that soldiers and horses are the most important thing. Even if the princes of one party love their own army, they are afraid that their generals will be renounced. As long as there is no problem in loyalty, everything else is trivial.

But this Wang Zheng acted recklessly, and he did things without regard to the consequences. He was at the stage of few soldiers, but he killed more than a hundred soldiers at once because of a crime of desertion without authorization.

Treating his subordinates so harshly is simply ridiculous, and it is reasonable to attract everyone's attention in this way.

The old man surnamed Zuo also nodded, and sneered again and again: "This thief is young and forgetful, once he succeeds, he forgets about it, and he can do anything that is astonishing."

As he said that, he looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "Everyone, don't forget that this son will be proclaimed emperor in three days."

As soon as these words came out, everyone shook their heads and hilariously laughed.

"Old man, let's wait and see the day when he betrays his relatives, loses his army and dies!"

Speaking of this, the old man surnamed Zuo's old face faintly twitched, obviously resentful and extremely hostile to Wang Zheng.

Everyone nodded one after another, all uttering curse words.

"It doesn't matter whether he dies or not, in short, let's go out of the city first."

A middle-aged man who had been silent before could not help but interrupt:

"Our main family has been killed by the homicide, if he finds us"

Hearing this, everyone felt a chill in their hearts, and they couldn't help panicking:

"Not bad, let's escape from this death place first."

Lu Shu also said at this time: "Housekeeper Hong is right. It's better for you to make a decision early. One hundred yuan is the price tomorrow. If there are more people, the thieves don't know the word honesty, and the price will be raised at that time."

Hearing this, Steward Hong cupped his hands to Lu Shu and said:
"Brother Lu, we have known each other for many years, and our friendship is not shallow. I would like to trouble you to help me get out of this way of life. I am grateful for your kindness."

After a pause, he said again: "It's just that the toll fee is a full [-]%."

"Is it a bit too high, can we discuss it?"

This is the point.

The key point was brought up by him, and everyone suddenly came to their senses, all eyes turned to Lu Shu.
