Chapter 52 Who is Kneeling
Early the next morning, "Purple Golden Liang" indeed sent someone to invite Zhang Shun. Zhang Shun thought for a while and took Wukong, Zhao Yutou and Zhang Shenyan to the appointment. Zhang Shenyan was quite cautious and deliberately changed his clothes to prevent
Recognized by Zhang Daojun.
The four of them arrived at the "Zijinliang" camp and gathered with "Purple Jinliang" Wang Ziyong, Han Tingxian, Qixu Taoist, "Lao Huihui" and "Ba Jingang", and headed to the foot of Douzhuang City to meet Zhang Daojun.
When they arrived at Douzhuang City, everyone stood outside within a stone's throw, waiting for Zhang Daojun's arrival. Zhang Shun stood there and looked at Douzhuang, and saw that all the houses outside Douzhuang Castle had been burned down. Only Heigulong was left.
The ruins of the walls, the dark red blood stains stuck to them, and the corpses of unknown bodies lying scattered about were half-burnt by the fire, giving off bursts of burnt smell.
Zhang Shun suppressed his nausea and thought: This "Purple Gold Liang" is still daydreaming. It beat people like this, but failed to finally conquer this city. Now to come here and kowtow, wouldn't it be a slap on the left side of someone's face?
Slap, and expect others to stretch out their right cheeks to slap him? Do you think Zhang Daojun is a fanatical believer in God?
Sure enough, after a while, a man nearly forty years old, wearing armor, climbed up the city wall and stood in front of the crenellations of the city wall. He smiled and said: "You burned my house. If you don't leave, I will burn you too."
ash!"
"Zijinliang" was not upset when he heard this, but asked loudly: "Is this the former governor and acquaintance Zhang Gong in the city?"
"It's me, the rebellious ministers and traitors, what do you want?" Zhang Daojun asked contemptuously.
"Zijinliang" hurriedly walked a few steps quickly, knelt down and said, "It turns out that Mr. Zhang is in front of you. I am 'Zijinliang', and I would like to have a word with you!"
"Oh? What's the matter with you?" Zhang Daojun no longer maintained his identity and was arrogant. Instead, he said to the people around him, "Don't fire off guns and cannons, and let him come and speak."
"Zijinliang" was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly took off his helmet and held it with his left hand. He walked dozens of steps forward on his knees, stuck out his buttocks, bowed three times to Zhang Daojun on the city, and said: "A certain person whose original name is Wang Ziyong, since
I became a monk at a young age and studied Taoism. I mistakenly followed Wang Jiayin and ended up here."
Zhang Shun was immediately disgusted when he heard this. Not to mention his buttocks sticking out, lying down and being beaten by others, he looked very much like Song Sanlang played by later teacher Li Xuejian, which made people want to kick his butt.
Besides, he has a smooth head with scars that haven't faded after taking off his helmet, and he keeps claiming that he has learned Taoism since he was a child. This is the most ridiculous thing in the world. There is nothing more groveling than this in the world.
I don't know what Zhang Daojun on the city thought, but he just asked sharply: "Since you know the mistake of the thieves, why don't you surrender as soon as possible? Instead, you are so rampant and vicious."
Hearing this, Wang Ziyong of "Zijinliang" quickly kowtowed his head several times like a beetle, and defended himself: "I came here specifically to discuss the matter of surrender."
"Nonsense!" Zhang Daojun said angrily, "You have besieged me for more than a month, attacking the city day and night. Chariots, arrow towers, mountains, and artillery took turns to attack, destroying my houses, killing my people, and injuring my soldiers. How can this be done in the world?
Surrender? Don’t you, Wang Ziyong, treat me like a three-year-old?"
"Don't you dare, it's a capital crime!" Wang Ziyong kowtowed quickly, "This matter was all a result of the bold and reckless actions of the young men before. When I arrived, it was already too late. The matter has come to this, and I only ask for Mr. Zhang's forgiveness.
I immediately ordered the camp to be collected and evacuated."
"Since the boys' work was in vain, please point out who did this. After punishing this person for me, you can surrender!" Zhang Daojun said with a smile.
"Purple Golden Liang" was shocked and at a loss when he heard this, so he had to turn around to look at everyone who came. "Lao Hui Hui", "Ba Jingang" and others all looked at their mouths, noses and hearts, without saying much. When "Purple Golden Liang" Wang Ziyong came to visit
When Zhang Shun was with me, Zhang Shun was agitated and thought to himself: "This guy is not a good guy, so don't jump over the wall in a hurry. I have a shallow foundation and no loyalty to him, so I must not let him take the blame."
So, Zhang Shun swaggered forward a few steps and said with a smile: "How foolish you are. Since the king has asked to surrender, he has already killed this person to show his sincerity. Why do you need to be aggressive? Yes or no,
But there is only one thing to say. If your Excellency allows us to surrender, we should do so sincerely to show the court's favorable treatment and avoid the military disaster in Shanxi. If you do not allow it, everyone will gather their troops and horses according to their abilities. Why keep chattering.
Like a girl!"
"Who are you? Why don't you kneel down when you see me?" Zhang Daojun saw that this person was very popular and neither humble nor arrogant, so he deliberately suppressed his momentum.
"I am Optimus Prime under the command of Zijin Liang. I am neither your minister nor my king. Why do you make me kneel down?" Zhang Shun said with a smile. He thought to himself, I have not had time to marry your mother in the future.
, you must not mess up the seniority first, which will make it difficult for you to be a good person in the future.
"Your leader, Zijin Liang, has already knelt down. Why don't you kneel down? Aren't you afraid of offending me?" Zhang Daojun also laughed.
"Zou Ji once said: When my wife beautifies me, she is selfish; when my concubine beautifies me, she is afraid of me; when a guest beautifies me, she wants to ask for something from me. The king's leader is not kneeling to you, but to Shanxi.
Cangsheng'er. This kneeling is an act of great sincerity and great virtue. How dare you accept it? Now I have no desires and no demands. One person is full and the whole family is not hungry. Why should I kneel to you? Why should I kneel to the world?" Zhang Shun laughed loudly.
He smiled and said, not only Zhang Daojun on the city was confused by his words, but also Wang Ziyong below the city was confused: Do I have such high virtue? Why don't I, Wang Ziyong, know about it?
Standing on the city wall, Zhang Daojun felt that he was much smaller. This verbal battle was a complete defeat. Zhang Daojun was suppressed by Zhang Shun's righteousness. If he didn't show anything, his reputation would be ruined if it spread out. So he had no choice but to
, also took his own helmet, bowed three times to the "Purple Gold Liang", and said: "I didn't know that if the king's leader Gao Yi is like this, he will lose his way."
"You release the people you captured, return the property you plundered, and dismiss your tribe. I will ask you to appease the army on your behalf, speak of your righteousness, and forgive your death penalty!"
"Purple Golden Liang" Wang Ziyong was surprised and happy when he heard this. He thought that Zhang Shun was so arrogant and things were not harmonious. However, he did not expect that things turned around in an instant. He couldn't help crying with joy. He kowtowed three times and said:
"I am grateful to Duke Zhang for his righteousness. I also want to thank Duke Zhang for his kindness in surviving for the sake of his soldiers."
Zhang Daojun heard this and shook his head secretly, thinking: "This king is a thief who can only defend himself, and he will be captured sooner or later. But that 'Optimus Prime' has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, so he must be dealt with carefully. We must not leave him any chance."
