Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 137 May the people of the world enjoy peace

Following the surrender of Zu Lang's troops, Zhu Wei found out through questioning Zu Lang that the Shanyue thieves who attacked Lingyang this time were the [-], [-] main forces and [-] auxiliary soldiers captured by him now. up.

The original so-called [-] to [-] scale, in fact, most of them have returned to their respective villages hidden in the mountains of Jing County and neighboring counties.

That is to say, his battle can be regarded as calming the crisis of Zulang's attack on Lingyang County.

This surprised Zhu Wei again. It seemed that he had settled a battle easily. He was worried that the troops at hand were not as powerful as the Shanyue bandit soldiers under Zu Lang, but under Wang Yuyan's plan, they were almost completely defeated Don't worry about the strength of the troops.

Across the dug ditch, Zu Lang's Shanyue bandits could not show their strength no matter how strong they were.

It seems that the strategy planned by a brilliant military division can indeed produce unimaginable effects.

Such a battle came to an end.

All captured ordinary Shanyue bandit soldiers were sent to a specially set up camp to be guarded. They had no weapons in their hands and no leaders around them to encourage them. As long as Zhu Wei didn't abuse them, they wouldn't show any rebellious mentality.

As for the small captains and small chiefs with some official positions, there are hundreds of them in total, but they are put together with the commanders under Zu Lang.

It seems that they have not been imprisoned, but they are surrounded by the left-wing army led by Pang Yan. If there is any change, they can only be slaughtered with bare hands.

Then Zhu Wei held a banquet for the whole army and let his soldiers take turns to have a good meal, but he still retained some vigilance.

At the same time, Zhu Wei also sent rice balls and pieces of meat to all the ordinary Shanyue bandit soldiers who were captured, so that they could have a full meal and did not abuse them or anything.

And the grain used by Zhu Wei is all polished rice like Liang rice, which made these ordinary Shanyue bandit soldiers couldn't believe that they could still eat such grain.

Then Zhu Wei also invited Zu Lang and other big and small Shanyue commanders, small leaders, and small captains to a banquet for one day, as a way to get in touch with them and hope that they can truly submit to Zhu Wei's tent.

Of course, the ordinary small leaders and small captains under Zu Lang's account are naturally arranged to eat elsewhere, but the treatment is better than ordinary Shanyue bandit soldiers, there are special table seats, meat and wine, so they can let go Eat whatever you want.

And at the main banquet set up in front of Zhu Weishuai's tent, Zhu Wei, Wang Yuyan, Mu Lan, Pang Yan, Ling Cao, the county captain and Zu Lang of Lingyang County, and his eight subordinates had seats arranged.

The banquet this time is also a banquet for military generals during wartime. Naturally, it is not as particular as the banquet of the gentry family. Except for a table in front of each person, the tables behind the table are all mazars, which are like low stools. Everyone sat and ate and drank, which was much more comfortable than the kneeling posture that had to be sat upright when attending a gentry banquet.

In the cases, there are mainly barbecued meat and minced meat soup, knives and chopsticks, and then there are various dipping sauces on one side, which can be seasoned by yourself, and on the other side are wine jars and wine jugs.

After the host and guests were all seated, Zhu Weixian raised the wine bar to respect Zu Lang and his eight commanders, "Come on, Zu Lang, and eight righteous men, drink a full bar! We don't know each other, drink this wine, let go of the past, don't look into the past, from now on we will create a great cause together, I hope we can let the people of the world enjoy peace and prosperity!"

"I hope we can let the people of the world enjoy peace and prosperity?"

After hearing Zhu Wei's words, Zu Lang couldn't help flickering. There seemed to be a deep meaning behind Zhu Wei's words, but if Zhu Wei's intentions were really like this, then Zu Lang was really moved.

Although Zu Lang is the commander-in-chief of Shanyue Zong in Jing County, he was originally born in Lingyang, and he was actually a commoner. After being handsome, he fed back the Lingyang Zu family, making the Zu family a local powerful family in Lingyang County.

However, in the eyes of other families in Lingyang County, the Zu Clan in Lingyang is still unable to gain popularity. Many people know the roots of the Zu Clan. Therefore, although the Zu Clan is secretly supported by Zu Lang, it still has little status in Lingyang County. .

Now Zhu Wei's words speak to Zu Lang's heart, if all the people in the world can enjoy peace and wealth, why should he be a mountain bandit?

"That's right, the world belongs to the people in the world, and how can people be divided into upper and lower levels because of their origins. What Wei has to do is to give everyone in the world a chance to stand out, so that the people in the world, regardless of their families, can serve the country. If you contribute, you will have the opportunity to be named a Marquis and a Prime Minister!"

Zhu Wei was talking in his mouth, but he looked at the magistrate of Lingyang County. This person is from the Lu family. Hearing Zhu Wei's words at this moment, he looked a little strange.

But now Zhu Wei is too lazy to care about him. Naturally, it is more important to win over Zu Lang. This person's words are actually aimed at Zu Lang, so Zhu Wei's eyes quickly turned to Zu Lang again, looking at Zu Lang sincerely. he.

"Full drink!"

Zu Lang didn't say anything more, he just raised the wine jue to respect Zhu Wei, and drank the dirty wine in one gulp.

"Drink full!", "Drink full!", "..."

The other eight commanders under Zu Lang, after hearing Zhu Wei's words, also drank a jug of turbid wine with different expressions.

Among the eight mountain bandit commanders under Zu Lang, four were sworn brothers of Zu Lang, and they were also from the common people of Lingyang County. In the beginning, they went to Jing County together with Zu Lang, and many died After the death, the four of them became the veterans of Zu Lang's Shanyue Army in Jing County.

The other four were the original Shanyue bandit leaders in the mountains of Jing County who later took refuge in Zulang. They also brought a lot of Shanyue bandit soldiers to Zulang, making Zulang's power stronger.

Of course, most of these Shanyue thieves were from common people, few were from noble families, and many of them were forced to go to Liangshan.

Although there is no such thing as a Liangshan hero, many people are indeed forced to hide in the mountains as thieves.

Except for a few who have different ideas and are naturally unwilling to be restrained and disciplined, the vast majority of people really can live a good life in their hometown, who would go to the mountains to become thieves?

The days of hiding in the mountains as thieves were not as beautiful as imagined. Many times they lived like wild animals, and some people could only live like savages in caves.

Of course, now Zu Lang's commanders of these Shanyue bandit soldiers are naturally considered to have made their way in the Shanyue with Zu Lang.

As the commanders of Shanyue under Zu Lang's tent, they can also control a village of their own in the mountains of Jing County, and their subordinates can control a certain number of Shanyue households as their own personal forces...
