When Zhang Chong found Bu Ji, Bu Ji was discussing matters in his big tent. Suddenly Zhang Chong rushed in. Everyone in the Taiping Road of East County in the tent froze, and the air immediately solidified.
Zhang Chong was keenly aware of the change in the atmosphere. He wondered whether there was any change in his mind. He wanted to leave, but he still wanted to persuade Bu Ji again. After all, Bu Ji now joined forces with Wang Du and had nearly 20,000 troops. Compared with Taishan,
The army's strength is comparable. Although the latter's combat power is definitely not as good as that of the Taishan Army, with the help of this army, the military strength will naturally be greatly strengthened along the way.
So Zhang Chong once again advised Bu Ji:
"Bu Qushuai, Kyoto is empty now, and the main forces in the north and south have left the border. The general He Jin who stayed behind has no prestige, and is secretly and without plans. The eunuchs and princes in the capital are at odds with each other, and the soldiers and people are alienated. Once we join forces and head west to threaten Xingyang, the world will be shaken. Furthermore, the whole country will be shaken.
He said that most of the troops in Hebei now rely on grain from Aocang. You and I personally command the masses and cover the attack lightly. They are far away and cannot be rescued, and they are unprepared. They are like picking up things. When the time comes, how can Hebei defeat the enemy who has no food?
Isn’t it easy to catch it?”
Bu Ji asked Zhang Chong:
"Aocang is so important. Even if it is unprepared as you said, even if it is captured, troops from all directions will be summoned to besiege Aocang. When the time comes, how can you stop it with so few troops?"
Zhang Chong suddenly realized that he was afraid of death.
Zhang Chong immediately explained for himself:
"Today there is a famine. You and I are occupying Aocang. We only need to send grain to help the poor. Who from far and near will not join us? Millions of people can be gathered in one day, resting on their power and strengthening their strength, waiting for work. Even if there are more Han soldiers, we will guard Xingyang
To avoid danger, rely on the chasm of the chasm and attack it as it comes. But once Hebei Benjiao leaves Hanoi to the west, it will be destroyed without attack."
But Bu Ji was still hesitant and finally choked out a sentence:
"This heroic strategy is beyond my ability. Please send the army first, and I will be the rear. Furthermore, all my troops are from Dongjun, and they have not asked for farmland. Who is willing to go west from me. Therefore, Zhang Qushuai, don't say anything more."
, you go west, I will leave Dongjun as a retreat for you. I can’t compete with you for your serious thoughts, so you and I should be well on our own."
Zhang Chong was stunned for a moment and asked:
"Bu Qushuai, what do you mean?"
Bu Ji looked straight at Zhang Chong with his deep eyes and said:
"Zhang Qushuai, don't speak too bluntly, otherwise it will damage the friendship between you and me. Are you determined to go westward really for my Huangtian cause?"
Zhang Chong frowned and said to Bu Ji:
"Bu Qushuai, if you have any misunderstandings about me, you might as well say it directly. I believe that no words can damage the friendship between me, Taishan, and you, Dongjun."
Bu Ji saw that Zhang Chong was so ignorant, so he simply said:
"Before, I asked you to go north with me to the regiment camp, but you hesitated and refused to go. Yesterday I found out that the chief instructor had ordered you to go north to the regiment camp several times, but you turned a deaf ear. Just because you don't respect the president.
You have already made a big mistake by teaching this fatwa.
Let me ask you again, what else did you do on your way out of Mount Tai besides defeating the Han soldiers? Did you annex all the Taiping comrades on the way to Dongping Kingdom? Yesterday someone came into my camp at night and talked about your annexation of comrades along the way.
wild ambition.
Then I figured it out. It turns out that you don’t want to go north to the regiment camp, but insist on marching west. I think you are just trying to annex comrades and strengthen yourself. I originally thought that you were indeed capable of fighting, and you have repeatedly defeated the Han army in the past year.
, is the most meritorious person in our sect. Therefore, in order to tide over the difficulties, I will not point out your thoughts. But you are so ignorant today, I will ask you Zhang Chong: What did you do when you joined our sect?
What are you thinking? Are you doing it for personal gain by insisting on marching westward?"
Zhang Chong didn't expect that Bu Ji, who looked at him honestly, would suddenly give him a big meal. Looking at the unkind eyes of those around him from Taiping Road in Dongjun County, his heart skipped a beat, knowing that he had been fooled and actually got into this thing.
Military camp on Taiping Road, County.
Zhang Chong knew that he had to get his name right, otherwise the fortune teller might really take the opportunity to take advantage of him. Hot girl, are these Taiping Dao gangs so ruthless in their fight for power?
Zhang Chong corrected his thoughts and replied loudly:
"Bu Qushuai, do you know who I am? I am a disciple of General Ren Gong, and I inherit General Gong's ambition to save the world. Since I joined the religion, wherever it is most dangerous and where no one wants to go, I, Zhang Chong, have always been at the forefront.
Mount Tai is dangerous, but I only led two hundred soldiers, and it took many years of bloody battles to conquer it, spreading the glory of the Yellow Sky on this Mount Tai. I was in great danger against the Han soldiers, but I still tried my best, even knowing that everyone in the sect was pointing at me as the leader.
Fortunately, we won the first battle, which greatly boosted the morale of our army. But now the church wants me to go north, and I have to withstand the public opinion and infamy within the church. Just because I can break the predicament, I will not go north but to the west. This fist
Huang Tian can learn from the public spirit.
And you said that I am annexing fellow Taoists. Along the way, fellow Taoists in Dongping Kingdom are hungry and cold. If it were not for our Taishan Army to take them in, how would these believers in Dongping Kingdom have any life? And now you are in Taiping Road, Dongjun County, don’t thank me for what I have done to you.
Comrade Yanzhou wants to pour dirty water on me because of the grace of my life. Isn't this too disrespectful of our Taishan Army?"
Bu Ji just looked at Zhang Chong, then suddenly smiled and said:
"Zhang Qushuai Gaoyi, I also agree with your strategy of marching westward. But unfortunately, it is difficult for my followers to leave their homeland, so I can only wish you a smooth journey westward here."
Zhang Chong knew that Bu Ji could not be persuaded, and besides, it was not a good place to stay here for a long time, so he did not want to stay any longer. Just as he was about to retreat outside the tent, Zhang Chong suddenly turned around, pointed at a black and burly man below Bu Ji, and warned Bu Ji.
:
"Bu Qushuai, I have always been good at fortune-telling. The black boy under your left arm looks abnormally, so don't let him guard you. Otherwise, you will regret it too late."
After saying that, Zhang Chong said goodbye and walked out of the tent calmly. He walked dozens of steps. Zhang Chong immediately rushed to his guard team, called them and hurried back to the camp. There is a problem with Taiping Road in Dongjun.
As soon as Zhang Chong left, Bu Ji looked at the burly black man Zhang Chong just pointed at with a complicated expression.
The man panicked and fell to his knees:
"Qushuai, you know me. I don't even know what abnormal vision is. That man named Zhang has no good intentions at all. He just wants to sow discord between us. Yes, he is sowing discord. Qushuai, you must be careful
Don’t fall for the trap.”
Bu Ji looked at the black man repeatedly, until he saw the man trembling, and then he said:
"Zhang Bo, I know you. Get up. No one can provoke us, as long as you still believe in Huang Tian devoutly."
This man named Zhang Bo immediately recited Huang Tian's prayer skillfully to express his faith in Huang Tian.
Wang Du, who was standing by, wanted to help Zhang Bo, so he changed the topic and asked himself:
"Master Divination, are you going to let Zhang Chong go like this? Didn't there be a secret message from the Great Master, asking us to capture this man and seize his army?"
If Zhang Chong were here, he would immediately slap his thigh. It turns out that Dongjun Taiping Road really wants to kill him. Indeed, when Zhang Chong entered the tent just now, these Dongjun generals were discussing how to deal with Zhang Chong.
What happened is this, as soon as Divination came back yesterday, there were visitors from Taiping Road from Hebei, holding the Zhangjiao Talisman Festival and dictating military orders:
"Taishan Zhang Chong is wild and rebellious. I promise you to seize the opportunity and send his army to the north quickly to reach the headquarters camp."
Bu Ji was shocked when he got the news. He didn't expect that the sect would ask him to attack Zhang Chong. You must know that Zhang Chong is a close disciple of Ren Gong and the inheritor of Ren Gong's line. Kill this person.
People, that would cause big troubles. Especially Zhang Chong's great military exploits. If he was executed like this, there would be chaos in Taiping Road immediately. Therefore, he repeatedly asked the visitor who sent the order whether this was really the great sage.
Do you mean?
Finally, Bu Ji accepted the order and kept thinking about it. He felt that the great virtuous master must be crazy. The Han court was constantly attacking over there, and the general was going to be killed here. So Bu Ji hesitated and took it, but
He didn't do anything more, but delayed it by investigating the situation.
But the visitor was not stupid. He saw the half-heartedness of Di Ji, and then he turned around and found Wang Du, the number two man in Taiping Road, Dongjun County, and passed Zhang Jiao's secret order to Wang Du.
The visitor asked Wang Du to hold a meeting of the Dongjun generals, and he would convey the edicts from Hebei to the Dongjun Yellow Turban generals. Therefore, there was this big meeting.
In the past, many generals from Taiping Road in Dongjun were envious of the valuables of Taiping Road in Taishan. When they heard that their superiors wanted them to capture Zhang Chong and annex the Taishan army, they all became enthusiastic.
But there were still a few smart people who didn't take the overall situation into consideration, but asked this question:
"What if they kill Zhang Chong and his army does not surrender, but instead comes to attack our army to avenge their leader?"
No one spoke at this time.
Needless to say, they all saw the strength of Zhang Chong's Taishan Army's troops and horses. In Taiping Road, East County, only one general had a leather armor. But the Taishan Army only had three armored soldiers in each corps. So what's the difference?
After considering many aspects, Bu Ji finally made the decision to neither go north nor west, but to stay in Dongjun. There is one thing Bu Ji said rightly, that is, all his troops were from Dongjun.
, there are really not many people who want to leave their hometown. They want to stay in Dongjun to make a fortune, so why go to Chenliu to fight with the Han soldiers. With the Taishan army in front, they just happen to beg for land and houses behind, wouldn't it be wanton.
So when Wang Du asked if he wanted to capture Zhang Chong, Bu Ji glanced at his good apprentice and said calmly:
"Then we naturally need to reply to the great virtuous master. We should explain all our difficulties to the great virtuous master and ask the great virtuous master to issue a formal order, and then we will take action."
You see, this is the ability of divination. Everyone has learned the skills of those old officials who have passed the buck.
If he replies here and waits for the chief teacher's order, won't the time be delayed? By then, Taishan Taiping Road will have already moved westward. There is also a teaching order with the title of the book that he specifically asked for,
Just to avoid taking the blame. What Zhang Jiao is giving now is a secret order. He killed Zhang Chong here, but the head teacher over there didn't admit it at all, saying that the visitor was a traitor and had stolen the talisman. When the time comes, he will predict
What can I do? He has no foothold in the teaching, and there is no master above him. Isn’t he an ideal candidate to take the blame?
But Bu Ji didn't want to memorize it. He just knew that this matter would not be brought to the table. He knew that Zhang Jiao would not directly fight with Ren Gong's line. Therefore, there would definitely not be a formal edict sent. Then kill Zhang Chong.
Shouldn't the matter be left alone?
It's a pity that these Taiping Road can't defeat the Han soldiers, but they are really as good as the Han officials when it comes to intrigues. Maybe this is human instinct.
