Three Kingdoms

Chapter 3250 Popularity

People always have to pay the price for their stupidity.

Unlike the outposts sent by Fei Qian to Shandong, these Shandong spies in Chang'an have to endure greater pressure and more risks. In the espionage courses of later generations, it is said that action is the biggest risk of exposure, but it is obvious that these Shandong spies and spies did not learn from their past mistakes.

When the sky was just getting light, the Hussars surrounded Chang'an City and took action.

The hussars no longer concealed their whereabouts. The roaring sound of horse hooves sounded in all directions of Chang'an City. The armor and swords and guns reflected the brilliance of the morning sun. In the blink of an eye, Chang'an was surrounded by water!

Those crazy guys on the street and in the market suddenly realized how smooth they were in the night, and now how miserable they are when dawn comes!

"Fell into a trap!" We've fallen into a trap! 』

The Shandong spy screamed wildly.

Unfortunately it's too late...

By the time they realized something was wrong, Pang Tong had already completed the encirclement.

The thief tried to escape using the remaining dark shadows of dawn, but ended up bumping into the cruising hussars!

The two scattered legs had no ability to resist at all when facing the hussars who cooperated to cover each other and attacked very sharply from both distance and distance!

Even those who surrendered on the spot were beheaded by the hussars who could not hold back their grip. Not to mention those thieves who tried to resist, some were trampled to death, which was extremely miserable!

The information everyone knows may not be true and accurate...

Just like these thieves.

Most of these thieves were actually lucky. They thought that Fei Zhen and Pang Tong had led troops to the front line, Chang'an's Third Assistant was recruiting new soldiers, and experienced inspectors and military academies had gone to teach new soldiers... …

Coupled with Wei Duan's troubles, it looks like the Guanzhong nobles are preparing to rebel and welcome Prime Minister Cao!

In this situation, if you do not understand the overall information, it is easy to form a wrong perception.

Coupled with some genuine and false encouragement, there will always be some people who want to take shortcuts and seek a way to reach the sky in one step. So how can they miss this "god-given opportunity"?

In this environment of information asymmetry, these people are greedy out of fear of missing out. When they see others seemingly acquiring additional resources, these individuals feel they need to act quickly to protect their own interests, leading to excessive acquisition behavior…

They thought that Chang'an was unprepared, that there was an empty time difference in fighting the Hussar, that their plan was foolproof, that...

As a result, he was crushed to pieces under the iron hooves of the hussar cavalry!

The armored cavalry mobilized their mounts, and in a blink of an eye, with the market as the center and the streets as the boundaries, they began to capture and intercept them like a net!

Countless horse hooves hit the bluestone ground in the street, slamming into everyone's hearts!

In addition to Shandong spies, there are also some greedy guys trying to fish in troubled waters in the dark.

This is inevitable human nature.

In fact, "greed" was still beneficial in ancient times...

Yes, in the days of ancient tribes, greed could be seen as a good survival strategy from an evolutionary perspective. In ancient environments, resources were scarce and unstable, so the desire for more resources to ensure survival and reproduction was an adaptive behavior. And those individuals who are able to acquire and store more resources are more likely to survive and pass on their genes to the next generation.

However, unlimited greed can also lead to destruction.

And what's very interesting is that even these greedy guys have seen how the last batch of greedy people died before, but they are still inevitably going to embark on this road, just like the corrupt officials who are endlessly catching them. It's the same as killing endlessly.

Therefore, regular cleaning up of these greedy people who cross the line is a necessary maintenance of social order.

Washing is healthier.

So, are there still some Shandong spies and spies hiding and not exposed?

There must be.

But as the arrests and trials proceed, some spies will be involved and dug out.

The thieves looked like clowns in front of these heavily armed hussars.

The hussars' horses were as tall as a man, and perhaps the horses knew they were on a mission, so they couldn't help but get excited, raise their necks and snort. The thieves were already killed before the riders could slash them with their swords and guns. The excited horse fell down with a hoof first.

The chaos was quickly settled without any suspense.

Only then did some people realize that the so-called public trial and public judgment of Webster's was nothing more than eating three meals a day.

When nearly 10,000 cavalrymen took control of Chang'an and Lingyi, these people understood that Qiusi's father was still his father, and that he should be his son and grandson, and he should still be a good son and grandson...

The officials originally had some small thoughts, but now they all put them away, and then either sighed or put on their official robes happily, and walked out of the house one after another, heading towards the Husband's government office...

Before, Qiao Qi Fei Qian was considered the eldest father, but now Xiao Feizhen is considered the youngest father.

It’s time to worship daddy.

…

…

Feizhen stood on horseback at the south end of Zhuque Street, looking up to the north.

All this is not his, but it is also his...

Pang Tong's words during this period of time, especially at night, were showing something and teaching something intentionally or unintentionally, which made Feizhen feel more pressure, just like the armor and armor on her body. It seemed three points heavier.

What did your father say?

If you want to wear his crown, you must bear its weight?

Well, that's probably it...

"Master!" Wei Du stepped forward and whispered, "Everything is ready!" 』

Feizhen subconsciously turned back to look for Pang Tong, only to find that Pang Tong was far behind and was explaining something to some other military academy officials. As if he noticed Fei Zhen's eyes, Pang Tong turned his head, smiled, and saluted Fei Zhen.

Feizhen returned the gift, then took a breath, suppressed her heart that could not help but beat, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said in the calmest voice possible: "Let's get started!" 』

Flags were raised high, and horses' hooves thumped.

Feizhen never looked back.

The guards lined up on both sides, but there was no one in front of Fei Zhen.

Even if he was to personally protect Wei Du, he could only follow Fei Zhen closely.

In the morning light, the three-color war flag fluttered high.

The fire in the city last night has been extinguished, and the black smoke is slowly rising.

The sunlight penetrated the mist on the city walls and eaves, returning the colors that originally belonged to Chang'an to Chang'an.

The darkness fades and the light comes.

People began to gather on the streets, criticizing and cursing the thieves who were being arrested one after another.

There is no need to explain in special words, nor to emphasize the difference between the enemy and ourselves. When the people of Chang'an saw the shops and neighbors that had been smashed and looted, they almost immediately burst out with endless anger, throwing stones and broken bricks at those shops. On the thief who was tied to the ground...

In the crowd, voices yelling at the thieves came and went.

Although some people immediately understood that this was another game made by Pang Tong and others to improve Feizhen's reputation, but so what? Even what these people muttered was drowned in the angry voices of other ordinary people.

The hussars on Suzaku Street stood along the street, both men and horses in armor. They hold guns and knives, sit upright on horseback, and their faces are filled with pride and pride. They are the guardians of this city and the defenders of the country. At this moment, they welcome their leader——

son...

Feizhen is riding on a tall war horse.

Although the tall war horse made his body appear smaller, the gorgeous armor on his body, the golden helmet on his head, and the general's flag with the word "Fei" stretched out and flying behind him all seemed to add to his aura.

The little ones in Chang'an last night had completely collapsed when the hussars encircled them at dawn.

Armored cavalry is not actually a so-called invincible existence in the era of classical cold weapon warfare. In fact, there are many restrictions on its use conditions. It can even be said that without sufficient logistical support, armored heavy cavalry is simply extremely cost-effective. A military unit.

But in Guanzhong, at the moment, it is fully displaying its greatest deterrence.

If Pang Tong or Xun You tried to introduce some bronze cannons and iron cannons to add luster to Feizhen and increase her prestige, I am afraid that most officials and people would not understand it, nor would they realize how powerful these silly, big, black cannons are. Leading era...

But these heavily armored cavalry are different.

The exquisite armor is like an iron wall, and the sharp swords and guns are intimidating.

Even the most ordinary people can see the terrifying nature of these heavily armored cavalry at a glance.

The primary weapon of these heavily armored cavalry is usually a spear, heavy sword or battle axe, which packs a huge punch in a powerful charge. Their tactics mainly used the speed and power of horses to impact, break the enemy's formation, or launch fatal attacks on the enemy at critical moments.

Because of this, the training of heavy armored cavalry is very strict. They need to be proficient in horsemanship, weapon use, and battlefield strategy. At the same time, they also need to have enough physical strength and endurance to withstand heavy equipment and long battles. These rigorous training and adequate nutritional intake make them taller, more majestic, combative, and full of fighting spirit than ordinary cavalry.

When these armored cavalry raised their swords and guns and shouted in unison, it was like thunder rolling and shaking Chang'an, frightening those who had been exposed and the insects still in the dark gaps to tremble!

Feizhen stepped forward, and everyone's eyes gradually focused on him...

Feizhen's throat slid up and down.

He was a little nervous.

Speaking in front of one person is a completely different feeling than speaking in front of ten people, or speaking in front of hundreds or thousands of people.

Originally, Fei Zhen wanted to say "people" because this was what his father Fei Qian said. Fei Zhen even drafted the manuscript in advance...

"The people are the foundation of the world." Since ancient times, the governance of Zhongxing has always put the people first. Whatever the people want, God will follow it; whatever the people want, God will do away with it. Therefore, when a wise ruler is in power, he must first bring peace to the people..."

But for some reason, Fei Zhen suddenly felt that what he said was meaningless.

He grumbled in his throat, and then raised his voice and said: "The world is in trouble, and traitors deserve to die!" 』

Everyone was silent.

Feizhen felt a little panicked, but still shouted out according to his current thoughts:

"The world is restless, thieves and thieves are rampant, causing harm to all people, and the crimes are extremely evil!" 』

"The crimes of rebels are heinous and they are really causing harm to the world. His evil deeds have corrupted human relations, his crime cannot be pardoned, and he must be punished according to the law! 』

"Now, with the right laws, we will punish the traitors and rebels!" To rectify the world and protect the safety of the people! 』

"There are thieves in the world, kill them all!" If there is rebellion in the world, get rid of it! 』

"It is our duty to eliminate thieves and traitors!" 』

"May Chang'an be safe!" 』

"For the great Han Yongkang!" 』

After shouting, Feizhen was a little out of breath...

The wind blew and it was quiet.

Feizhen was a little panicked.

I looked left and right, my heart pounding, and I felt as if I had ruined the show...

It seemed that after a long time, and it seemed like just one or two breaths, someone shouted loudly!

"Young Master is mighty!" 』

"The hussars are victorious!" 』

"May Chang'an be safe!" 』

"For the great Han Yongkang!" 』

"Wan Sheng!" 』

"Wan Sheng!" Won victory! 』

"Oh oh oh..."

Amid the deafening shouts, Fei Zhen raised her head and walked proudly.

The war horse kicked and kicked.

The flag is fluttering.

The sun shone warmly on Feizhen's face.

Feizhen secretly exhaled a long breath...

so far so good.

…

…

Cheers, like a wave, roared in Chang'an and then spread.

The voices of countless men, women, and children merged into one place, like a wonderful, chaotic, yet full of charm and unity, singing an aria.

Two hundred armored cavalry surrounded Fei Zhen tightly and escorted him towards the yamen of the Hussar Mansion.

Behind Fei Zhen, other hussars were gradually gathering their ranks, and then detained the captured thieves in prison and handed them over to Youwen Si Dali Temple for interrogation.

At this moment, the officials in Chang'an, led by Xun You, respectfully welcomed Feizhen in front of the Yamen of Huqi Mansion.

The chaos of last night seemed to still be in my ears, but as soon as the sun came up today, it was like a scorching sun shining on the remaining snow. In the blink of an eye, it was like the chaos was gone and order was in order!

Anyone with a little bit of brains will understand who the biggest beneficiary of last night's inexplicable farce was...

Countless people looked at Feizhen, who was slowly approaching, with various moods and eyes.

In this way, the situation in Guanzhong is stable!

Many people sighed in their hearts.

How virtuous and capable is this guy...

But just like this today, he has secured his position as the heir of Qiusi!

It can be said that one person is inferior to ten thousand people!

Among all the officials present, none of them were older than Feizhen, but even Xun You stood respectfully in front. Who among the others had the guts to talk nonsense or make any mistakes in their actions?

Previously, the Hussars had been stationed in the east of Hedong for a long time, and Cao's army launched a large-scale attack. News of all sizes in Guanzhong was flying all over the sky.

it's good now……

Who gave Feizhen a good father?

At the front of the hundred officials, Xun You remained calm and seemed to have done nothing.

If he had a poorer psychological quality, he would be proudly claiming how many achievements he had made in such a layout, and would record all these matters in his own account, and then use them to claim credit and reward, but Xun You smiled slightly. He looked neither excited nor pretentious, just as normal.

When he saw Feizhen appearing on Fuyaqian Street, Xun You took the lead to greet her.

Feizhen also quickly jumped off the horse, hurriedly stepped forward to help Xun You up, and then asked the other officials to get up.

Fei Zhen wanted to ask Xun You to go forward side by side, but Xun You refused.

The two gave way for a moment, but in the end, Fei Zhen was in front and Xun You was behind, entering the government office gate. Then the other officials followed Fei Zhen and Xun You into the government office like statues that came to life again.

Pang Tong was still outside the city, responsible for deploying the hussar soldiers and handling the follow-up matters. He did not follow Fei Zhen into the city or the palace.

…

…

After all, there were only a few officials who were qualified to follow Fei Zhen into the Hussar Mansion. Most of the officials just greeted her outside the door and then dispersed halfway. Some were busy with the matters at hand, while others were worried.

Such as Du Ji.

"This is going to be troublesome..."

He muttered in his heart, and then returned to his small courtyard in Chang'an Lingyi.

Feeling uneasy.

"Something must be done..." Du Ji was a little anxious.

Du Ji failed to persuade Webster before, so he took the initiative to distance himself from Webster.

But the problem is that the relationship between Du Ji and Wei Duan was relatively close in the early days, and there was a time when they were as close to each other as a family. Now that they are about to break off, even if Du Ji is very decisive, it does not mean that they can change the past in one fell swoop. These imprints left behind...

Unless Du Ji comes forward to testify against Webster.

After hearing about Wei Duan's arrest, Du Ji was also very worried and found an excuse to go from Lantian to Chang'an to report the matter. On the one hand, it is to show that he has nothing to do with the thieves, and on the other hand, it is also to understand the changes as soon as possible so as to prevent the Du family from being implicated by Wei Shi and others.

What Du Ji didn't expect was that he saw such a situation in Chang'an before it was his turn to see Xun You.

Rebellious thieves arose one after another, but fell apart overnight.

The Shandong spies in the city, the brainless students who were incited, and the greedy people who followed the trend and tried to fish, were almost wiped out!

Feizhen took this opportunity to show off her face in front of the people of Chang'an Sanfu.

This is simply...

Du Ji sighed softly.

He saw through the situation, but what could he do?

It has become inevitable for the Guanzhong gentry to lose power, and from now on...

Du Ji frowned for a long time, walked around twice, and suddenly called to his servant: "Bring me a pen and ink!" Get the bamboo paper! 』

The servant hurriedly went to do it, while Du Ji held his beard and pondered. After a while, he walked behind the desk, picked up his pen, and concentrated on it: "I heard that in ancient times, those who accomplished great things were not only extraordinary talents, but also There must be perseverance. In the past, Yi Yin plowed in the wild fields and enjoyed the ways of Yao and Shun; Taigong hoped to fish on the Weibin and hoped that King Wen would prosper. From this point of view, when a talented person lives in the world, he always has the heart to help the world, and waits for the time to act in order to achieve great achievements..."

"Now that my lord has obeyed the will of the people and inherited the body and tradition, he wants to restore the grandeur of the Han Dynasty and create a great cause for the ages. It is appropriate to recruit talented people to serve as the foundation..."

After a long time, Du Ji finally finished writing this article "Encouraging Talented People to Recruit Talents". He read it from beginning to end again, took up the pen to correct some inappropriate places, and then made a correct copy before sealing it. , raised his voice and shouted: "Bring me some court clothes!" I want to meet Mr. Fei! 』
