The strongest Marquis in history

He turned around and entered the yard. Not long after, an old man about 50 years old came out.When he saw Wang Qi, he sized him up and saw that Wang Qi was dressed in an extraordinary manner, especially when the people behind him looked like they were from the army, the old man's heart trembled.

It is not easy to come.

The old man's expression became more respectful, and he took the initiative to say: "General, the old man's name is Zhang Wuyan, and he is the village official of Shanyang Village. If you have any questions, just ask me. General, please!"

Wang Qi said: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Wuyan shook his head and said: "Thank you, we are all Qi people, and we all rely on the King of Qi. Because of the presence of the King of Qi, we are not exorbitant taxes, and we have food such as sweet potatoes, so that we can live well. On a warm day, these are the things to do.”

After a pause, Zhang Wuyan said: "The general has walked all the way, hasn't he eaten yet?"

"Never!"

Wang Qi replied with a smile.

Zhang Wuyan said: "Nowadays there are not many people in the family, the general condescends and eats some light meals at the old man's house. Although the food is ordinary, it can still fill the stomach. What do you think?"

Wang Qi said, "I'm bothering you."

Zhang Wuyan brought Wang Qi in, and it happened that Zhang's family had prepared lunch, and all the food was served, including egg custard and meat, it was quite a rich meal.

Wang Qi and Zhang's family had dinner together. After the meal, all the dishes and chopsticks were removed. Zhang Wuyan went straight to the topic and asked, "General, what do you want to know about your visit now?"

Wang Qi said: "Mr. Zhang, the thing is like this. According to the information obtained by the Qi State, the Chu State will arrange for people to walk through the Dabie Mountains and directly enter the hinterland of Lujiang County."

"I'm here with the army now to stop this army. But for the time being, the other party hasn't come yet, and I don't know the situation in the Dabie Mountains, so now I come to the village to understand the situation and see if the other party comes out of the mountain. Where will it come from?"

Wang Qi said: "After all, you have lived here all your life, so you know the local situation better."

Zhang Wuyan's wrinkled face suddenly became more worried.If people from Chu State invaded Qi State, the people who were close to them would definitely suffer.

Wang Qi noticed the worry on Zhang Wuyan's face, and said: "Don't worry, I am here with the army to stop the Chu State, and I will not let the Chu State's army be violent, and I will definitely defend the Qi State."

Zhang Wuyan nodded solemnly, and said: "General, when it comes to the situation of the Dabie Mountains, I know a little bit, but I don't know enough. After all, I seldom go out to hunt, so I am familiar with the Shanyang Valley in this village. Once out of here, the old man doesn’t know. The hunters in the village know about it, so I’ll call people over to the general, and the general will ask them.”

Wang Qi said, "Trouble Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Wuyan said: "No trouble, no trouble, what's more, I am the village official in the village and an official the size of a soybean in Qi State, so I should do my part."

Immediately, Zhang Wuyan called his grandson and asked him to go and inform the people.

Immediately Zhang Wuyan said: "General, do you think my grandson can join the army and fight?"

Wang Qidao: "Now he can live a good life, and he is slowly changing. In the future, he will have the opportunity to read and write. Why should he be a soldier?"

Zhang Wuyan said: "It's not easy to study, and he's not the material for studying. At least he can see the world as a soldier. Even if he doesn't have any achievements, he can go back to the village in the future. But in case, he can achieve a little bit in the army ,That's good."

Wang Qi noticed that the young man just now had dark skin, but he was not bad.Wang Qi nodded and said: "If he is willing, I will accept him and let him serve in the army."

Zhang Wuyan said: "Thank you General, thank you General."

Wang Qi said: "It doesn't have to be like this."

Wang Qi asked about the village's harvest and the current tax situation.Now the area in Lujiang County is still tax-free. Not only are there no exorbitant and miscellaneous taxes, but there are no basic taxes.Moreover, the local governance has been very good in the past two years, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and live a good life.

After Wang Qi heard it, he was satisfied.

The local people can eat enough and wear warm clothes. This is the greatest achievement.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and two middle-aged men with thick backs came.Zhang Wuyan's grandson followed behind. After the three of them entered the yard, Zhang Wuyan's grandson left.

"Grassman Zhao Feihu, I pay my respects to the General."

"Grassman Li Erzhu, I pay my respects to the General."

The two burly men saluted Wang Qi together, with more awe in their eyes.

When the two of them heard the notification from Zhang Wuyan's grandson, they knew that there was a general from the Qi State court to understand the situation.When they heard that they were generals of the imperial court and real high officials, the two hunters were naturally a little cautious.

Wang Qi nodded and said, "You two, are you familiar with the situation in Dabie Mountain?"

Li Erzhu said: "Familiar!"

Zhao Feihu said: "General, Li Erzhu is more familiar with him. He is the best hunter in our village. He often wanders around the mountains for ten days and a half months, and even stays in the mountains for more than a month. He has come to the mountains several times. Dabie Mountain has been to the state of Chu, and I have followed him twice."

Compared with Li Erzhu's concise and concise words, Zhao Feihu is more talkative.

Wang Qi said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, you guys come with me, take me for a walk, and learn about the local situation."

"Yes Yes!"

Li Erzhu and Zhao Feihu all answered in unison.

Both of them are honest and responsible village hunters, and when they heard Wang Qi's words, they both answered truthfully.

Zhang Wuyan is the village official, he has prestige in the village, knows some words, has his own ideas, and he hopes that the people in the village will live well, so he took the initiative to say: "General, look at Zhao Feihu and Li Erzhu. "

"I watched these two children grow up. Both of them are honest and good-natured. They are both in their early twenties. They are strong and strong. They are good at hunting and not bad at fighting."

"Look, how about letting them join the army? General, you are a nobleman, and we country people are both rough and ordinary people. If you draw a little bit, the people in our village will be different at once."

"I implore the general, give them both a chance and let them serve in the army."

Zhang Wuyan turned to look at Zhao Feihu and Li Erzhu again, the smiles on his face became serious in an instant, and he scolded: "You two little children, don't kneel down yet, thank the general."

"Thank you, General!"

Zhao Feihu and Li Erzhu hurriedly plopped and knelt on the ground to salute.

Zhang Wuyan turned his gaze to his grandson Zhang Shi, who was watching the fun, and said, "Stinky boy, what are you doing standing up. You kneel down together and thank the general, who agreed to accept you."

Zhang Shi knelt down excitedly, his head didn't feel hurt, he hit the ground with a bang, knocked his head three times, and knelt down with Li Erzhu and Zhao Feihu, smiling naively.

Wang Qi glanced at Zhang Wuyan, he knew what Zhang Wuyan was thinking, but he didn't care about it.

This is the painstaking efforts of the old man.

For an old man like Zhang Wuyan, he knows that there is no way out in the village.Only by going out, can there be a future, can we see that small hope, at least there is a glimmer of chance.

Especially Zhang Wuyan, not only planning for his grandson, but also taking care of the people in the village.

This is something Wang Qi admires very much.

Wang Qi said in a deep voice: "You three, get up, I will accept you."

"Thank you, General!"

Zhang Shi, Li Erzhu and Zhang Feihu kowtowed again before standing up.

Wang Qi continued: "The three of you enlist in the army, and when you return to the army, you will know my identity. So at the moment, I will not hide from you. I am Qi Wangqi, the lord of Qi."

"This time I led troops to the direction of the Dabie Mountains to stop Chu's army. It was personally arranged by me. You want to join the army. This is your opportunity. Take advantage of it."

Wang Qi said: "You three, don't disappoint the old man's thoughts."

Zhang Wuyan was shocked when he heard it.

The same goes for Li Erzhu and others, all of them seemed to be petrified, and it took a long time for them to recover one by one.For them, they seldom go to the county seat in their life, and the biggest official they see is the nearby Lizheng.

Seeing King Qi now, I was shocked in my heart.

"Meet King Qi!"

Zhang Wuyan was the first to react and knelt down.

"Meet King Qi!"

Li Erzhu, Zhang Shi, Zhao Feihu, and even the family all came out and saluted Wang Qi one after another.

Wang Qi said: "Get up."

Zhang Wuyan and the others thanked them, and sat down tremblingly. At this moment, they were a little at a loss.Because I have never faced such a big man, I don't know how to deal with it.

Wang Qi saw it and said: "You don't have to be restrained, and you don't have to be so trembling. I don't eat people. In addition, I didn't intend to tell you the identity of this king. It's just that the three of you want to join the army. I still want you to know, at least Give the village an explanation. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be difficult to explain to someone who is taken away by unknown people.”

Zhang Wuyan was grateful and said, "Your Majesty, you are really a good person. We all depend on him. If it weren't for your majesty, we might not have enough to eat."

Wang Qi said: "Eating a full meal is the easiest. I hope that in the future, I can eat meat every now and then. This is the best. But it is more difficult, so take your time. Zhang Lao is the village leader, think about it, how to let The village is better."

"Yes, yes, the old man must remember King Qi's teachings."

Zhang Wuyan was very excited.

The biggest official he has ever met in his life is Li Zheng who is a little older than him.Unexpectedly, when he was old, he would actually meet King Qi of the Qi Kingdom. Once he met, he would be able to boast for a lifetime.

In his old Zhang's house, the ancestral grave is smoking.

After Wang Qi understood the situation clearly, he asked Zhao Feihu and Li Erzhu to tidy up without any further delay, and left after a quarter of an hour.

Wang Qi and Zhang Wuyan were talking, but Zhang Wuyan seemed more reserved at this moment.Even sometimes when speaking, I feel a little bald, and it is difficult to speak normally.

Wang Qi could also understand, but he didn't care. When Zhao Feihu and Li Erzhu came back, he left with Zhang Shi.A group of people left Shanyang Village. Taking advantage of the time, Wang Qi asked Li Erzhu to lead the way to the nearby road into Dabie Mountain.

Leaving Shanyang Village, headed to the place Li Erzhu knew, and walked for almost two hours before arriving at the entrance of the mountain road.

This location is far away from Shanyang Valley.

Wang Qi stood at the entrance and looked around. Looking around, there were steep stone slopes on both sides, and there were skinny trees taking root on the stone slopes.In the middle of the mountains on both sides, there is a curved road.

Even so, this road out is covered with weeds.Now that spring begins in February, these weeds are new, covering the original road.

Wang Qi looked at the road which was not wide, especially the road leading into the mountain was surrounded by dense trees.The trees near Wang Qi are not that big, but looking into the mountains, there are dense forests, and there is a mountain that can't be seen at the end.

Li Erzhu said: "Your Majesty, not far after entering is the Dabie Mountain. The further you go into the mountain, the more difficult the road will be. Gradually, you will completely enter the mountain forest, and you will never see the sun, and you will always be in the mountain."

"Many hunters have walked this road. As long as they are familiar with the mountain roads, they have made marks in the mountains, and they know that they will follow the marks and they will not go wrong."

"It's just that very few people come here, most of them are hunters."

Li Erzhu said: "Of course, even for hunters who are often in the mountains, ordinary people cannot walk in the mountains. After all, in the Dabie Mountains, the roads are difficult, and there are many snakes, insects and beasts. It is extremely difficult."

Wang Qi looked around and said: "Besides this location, there are other exits, or enter Dabie Mountain from other places."

Li Erzhu said: "There are naturally many entrances to the mountain forest area. But this is the only place to go to the nearby towns. In the rest of the area, there are many near the turbulent river, which is even more difficult. So if The people of Chu State, if they find experienced hunters, they will definitely find this way, because most hunters know this way.”

Wang Qi said again: "Are you sure there are no other exits?"

"no!"

Li Erzhu shook his head and answered.

Zhao Feihu said: "Your Majesty, there shouldn't be any. After all, we have also seen the hunters in Qichun County, and they used to go this way. Unless it is the army of Chu State, they don't go here, but they go to other areas. Mountains, or rivers, or cliffs, and very remote areas, it is impossible to get out."

Wang Qi nodded and said, "Since that's the case, choose this place to ambush. Let's go, you follow me back to the barracks, and then prepare to mobilize the army to set up an ambush."

"Yes!"

Li Erzhu, Zhao Feihu and Zhang Shi all answered.

Together with Wang Qi, the three of them rushed back overnight, and when they returned to the camp, it was almost morning.After all, on the way back, he first had to return to the place passing through Shanyang Village, and then back to the barracks.

After returning to the barracks, Wang Qi took Zhao Feihu and the three of them to dinner, and after the meal, arranged the three of them to rest in the army.After a day of running around, Wang Qi was also a little tired.

The next day, early in the morning.

After Wang Qi woke up early in the morning, he led his army and set off, led by Li Erzhu, to the area where the entrance of Dabie Mountain was located.

After the army arrived, Wang Qi quickly made arrangements.When the army was properly deployed, Wang Qi never felt at ease. He specifically asked Li Erzhu about the situation in some other places.

These are not the main entrances to the Dabie Mountains, but the locations to other nearby towns and villages.At the main checkpoints, arrange sentries to ambush and follow.

In order to facilitate, once an accident occurs, it can be known in advance and then responded quickly.

After everything was arranged properly, Wang Qi stopped and waited quietly for the arrival of the Wuxi barbarians from Chu State.He is now ready for everything, he only owes Dongfeng, and he can carry out an ambush when the other party arrives.

Wang Qiren was on the spot, he never waited, he was carrying the exercises on the spot.

When Wang Qi's true essence was running, he was thinking about the killing of the Wuxi Man in his mind.

This battle must be won.

Only win but not lose.

Once defeated, the entire Lujiang County, and even the southern front of Qi State will collapse.Even the war in Qi State will be greatly affected, which cannot be defeated.

Wang Qi has someone to protect.

He wants to protect his family, his wife and children, and more importantly, the people of Qi.

This is Wang Qi's responsibility.

Wang Qi's thoughts were vague, and he gradually fell into the oblivion of things and himself.His own will gradually merged into his body and mind.This will is even more indestructible and unshakable.

Road!

Wang Qifu thought of his way in his heart.

guard!
