Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 2558 Strong soldiers and strong horses

   I have to say that Lu Hong's voice is still good, even in timidity, it can still resound through the valley.

  『Everyone stop! 』Lieutenant Wang slowly came up from behind. He didn't want to show up at first, but now there seems to be a possibility, so it seems that we can talk about it.

  Lu Hong's entire queue was surrounded. Whether to kill or stay was a matter of one sentence, so it was not a big problem to stop temporarily.

   A few Zhongmu Xiaobing were behind, chattering and triumphantly saying, "The so-called school affairs elites are too easy to fight, and they are vulnerable, so what the **** are they one in a hundred? It's all bragging!" 』

  『Exactly, in my opinion, we might as well tidy up everything, so as not to waste time! 』

Zhongmu's soldiers thought that Lu Hong's men were elites, but in fact they only dressed like elites. Most of them were rangers and **** recruited by Lu Hong. It was easily pierced through.

  The remaining dozen or so people under Lu Hong's subordinates trembled, holding up knives and guns, and some people couldn't help leaking urine, dripping on the ground, mixed with the smell of blood.

  Lieutenant Wang stood forward, his eyes were like awls, he scanned them one by one, and then landed on Lu Hong.

   Lu Hong stood in the middle, clasped his hands tightly, pulled his neck and shouted: "Killing is easy, but the funeral is troublesome!" If I come forward, others will follow! How many can you kill? The bigger the thing, the more troublesome it is! At that time, even if you want to cover it up, you won't be able to cover it up! 』

  Lu Hong's words hit Xiaowei Wang's heart.

   This is indeed the truth.

  The most fundamental reason for the action this time is that Lu Hong came suddenly, without prior notice, naturally there was no way to make sufficient preparations.

  As long as you say hello in advance, even if you want to check the roadside stalls in the corners, they can be filled with goods, so what is there to be afraid of? Dirty and smelly canals, as long as there is enough time, can become clear!

   Simply put, there is no problem with the inspection, but the problem is the inspection without greeting.

  If you have time to prepare, why are you afraid of inspection? The immediate attack was not a sudden attack by Lu Hong who rushed straight here non-stop, otherwise why would there be a confrontation with swords and guns?

   Killing the inspector is a helpless bad policy.

  Who didn't know that killing the inspector would cause more trouble?

   But no matter how big the trouble is, it will be after the killing. In the Han Dynasty when the news was not clear, there were too many missing people, and Lu Hong and others crossed provinces, bah, counties and counties. Don’t they need to go through procedures for various writings?

   This back and forth can delay at least half a year! With this more than half a year, how can I find some buffer, at least it's better than being exposed as a cover right now!

"fart! Killing you is like crushing a bedbug! 』

  『Look at your bears, still thinking of threatening us? ! 』

  The surrounding soldiers who raised their swords and guns laughed and were not moved by Lu Hong's words. They even started to laugh at Lu Hong, and continued to press forward with their swords and guns shaking.

  Lu Hong didn’t go to see those soldiers, but just stared at Xiaowei Wang, because Lu Hong knew that Xiaowei Wang was the core figure.

   Sure enough, Captain Wang stopped his subordinates, then stared at Lu Hong, gestured to himself, "Don't you want to talk? Come out, come talk! 』

  Gritting his teeth, Lu Hong pushed away his subordinates, stood up, and then controlled himself not to tremble, and walked in front of Captain Wang, "You're waiting for a catastrophe!" 』

   Captain Wang laughed.

  The soldiers around him also laughed.

   It's all his mother's blade licking blood, isn't that day a catastrophe?

  『Listen to me, if what I say is wrong, you can hack me to death! 』After Lu Hong said a few words, his breath gradually calmed down. Lu Hong knew that it was impossible to make Wang Xiaowei stop with such a sentence. He had to come up with a strategy that was more reasonable and more in line with the interests of Wang Xiaowei and others in order to save his own life.

   Captain Wang gave Lu Hong a sideways glance, and was silent for a while, "Okay, you say." 』

"Me too! It's a scapegoat pushed out by the people above! Lu Hong stared at Captain Wang, "I'm dead, just one step ahead, but things are irreparable!" I'm the inspector, no matter if it's missing or dead, someone will always be responsible! Surely your surname is neither Ren nor Pan, right? My surname is neither Cao nor Xiahou! So you and I are dead, and it actually has nothing to do with the people above! If you kill me, you can't change anything. If you can defeat my subordinates, is it possible that you can also defeat a patrol envoy? Can you still defeat tens of thousands of Cao Jun? ! I don't want to be a scapegoat, and I believe you don't want to either, so we, you and I, can talk...』

   After Lu Hong finished speaking, the scene fell silent.

  Lieutenant Wang stared at Lu Hong, staring at Lu Hong so that Lu Hong felt a little hairy, as if he would raise a knife and chop him at the next moment. After a while, Captain Wang nodded slightly, "Continue." 』

  『If Cao Bing was vulnerable from top to bottom, the former General Yuan would not have collapsed and died on the battlefield. Lu Hong said, "You should also understand this point, right?" 』

  『Didn’t Yuan Benchu ​​die on the battlefield...But, it doesn’t matter...You continue. 』Lieutenant Wang didn't want to entangle Yuan Shao's problems, and he found that what Lu Hong said seemed to be a little interesting.

   Lu Hong nodded and said: "You can ambush me, not because of you, but me, well, I am not important, what is important is that the people above think you are allies... Can you understand this?" 』

   Captain Wang rolled his eyeballs, and the corners of his mouth twitched. It was obvious that Lu Hong had touched on some important points.

  That's right, no one thought that Xiaowei Wang would dare to do it directly...

Of course, it doesn’t mean that Wang Xiaowei should be weak and incompetent, but that this kind of thing was done by big bosses before, such as Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. Dare to do so, indeed somewhat unexpected.

   What is this supposed to be?

   Rites and music collapsed?

   Maybe.

  『There is no hatred between you and me, is there? You and I are both loyal to the big man and the prime minister, you have to understand this! So I died, in order to continue to have people who want to be loyal to the big man and the prime minister, there must be an explanation! Lu Hong stared at Captain Wang and said, "And this confession, no matter whether it is true or not, is always necessary. 』

   Captain Wang sneered, "You mean...that's what I'm going to say?" 』

  Lu Hong also smiled, "I don't know, anyway, if I die, it is definitely not me who decides this matter..."

  Lieutenant Wang's expression moved slightly, and then he said: "Go on." 』

"The big man needs an explanation, and the prime minister also needs an explanation. As for the confession, it may not be that important. The important thing is to have this confession..." Lu Hong emphasized, "If I die, you will not be able to turn back. Who knows? sent me? It's Xun Lingjun! You can hide it from me, but can you hide it from him? Leave me alone so I can help you…”

   Captain Wang gave Lu Hong a sideways glance.

   Okay, the discussion has changed from whether to kill or not to whether to help or not. I have to say that Lu Hong's oral job is also good.

   But Lu Hong really talked about the point.

   Lu Hong told a fact.

   Undeniable facts.

The fact is that Captain Wang and Lu Hong are actually in the same framework. Because they are "friendly troops", Captain Wang and the others won, but if they were "enemies" at the beginning, they may not be able to win. Win, at least winning won't be as easy as it is now.

  At the same time, Lu Hong also made it clear that if people like Captain Wang dared to jump out of Cao Cao's framework and raise the banner of rebellion, then the gang that had managed to gather together based on interests would collapse instantly.

   Captain Wang pondered.

  Yes, his original plan was to chop up everyone, bury them, and treat them as missing persons. No matter if they were alive or dead, they would be able to pretend for a while.

  Why did Captain Wang have to kill Lu Hong, the inspector?

  Because just like what Lu Hong said, if Zhongmu is found to have any problems, then the unlucky ones must be himself who is in charge of Zhongmu's bandits, Cao's sect, Xia Cao, etc., Zhongmu Xiaowei, Wang Hai!

  This is "duty to shirk"!

  Okay, this is not the meaning of duty-bound, but is it still rare for the original meaning of the above to be tampered with by the bottom?

   Captain Wang Haiwang is the first responsible person.

As for the others, those who sit on Wang Hai's head, no matter how serious the situation is, can somehow use a "trusted person" to shirk responsibility, and generally they will not die, at most they will be dismissed from office, after a period of time Afterwards, when the weather calms down, you can resume your post as an official, or go to another place to be a new person, er, an official.

  Only him, Wang Hai, has no room for evasion. If something happens, he must die.

  There is no room for it, and when there is an emergency, you can only jump over the wall in a hurry.

  And Lu Hong's few words seem to have left a little more leeway.

   Then stop dancing for now?

  『You are here to investigate us...』 Captain Wang pointed with his blood-stained saber, and said, 『How can you help us? 』

   Did you see that this knife is covered in blood.

  『No, not only to help you, but also to help myself. Lu Hong said in a deep voice, "We can make a deal..."

   Captain Wang looked at Lu Hong.

  Lu Hong also looked at Captain Wang.

   Captain Wang shook his head, "I heard that you didn't like money... so I can't believe you..."

  『Uh...I think I can like it now...』Lu Hong said.

   Captain Wang was still shaking his head.

  『Then how can you believe it? ’ Lu Hong said.

   Captain Wang's eyes fell on the **** handle of the knife.

  Lu Hong froze for a moment, then waved his hands again and again. "No, no, I can't do this..."

   Captain Wang laughed, then handed over the saber, "Hahaha, now I believe it... come on... come on..."

  Lu Hong waved his hands.

  Lu Hong knew that once he really did this, even if he retracted his confession in the future, even if he survived, he would still be exiled or dismissed. Even if everyone else knows that Lu Hong did it under the premise of being coerced, who else would like to stay with a guy who is afraid of death and may attack his own people at any time to survive?

  So as long as Lu Hong did it, it would be regarded as yellow mud falling in the crotch, and it was either **** or shit, even if he had a hundred mouths, it would be hard to explain.

"Come! If you do it, I will share your money! ’ Wang Hai said in a deep voice.

  Lu Hong said: "I don't want money! 』

  Wang Hai widened his eyes and said, "You don't need money, how can you be an official?" 』

  『…』 Lu Hong suddenly stood there for a while as if he had been pierced by something.

  Fear of death does not mean greedy for money. Just like corrupt officials and honest officials have nothing to do with whether they can do things, honest officials will also ruin a good thing.

   Contradictory, right?

   No contradiction!

  『Stop **** dawdling, just tell me whether you want to do it or not! 』Wang Hai became impatient.

  When the knife was raised again and reached the front of Lu Hong's chest and abdomen, Lu Hong sighed.

  Lu Hong figured it out. If he was just a dog, he might be able to do a mission: Impossible or something, but that would mean that he would always be a dog...

  If you want to be an official, a dog will not do it.

  I only heard that the cunning rabbit died and the running dog cooked.

  But I never heard that if there is no prey, the official will be cooked.

  After all, officials can change places...

  To be a dog, or to be a human, no, to be an official, Lu Hong has his own choice.

  …(＾－＾)V(ㄒoㄒ)~~…

  『If you want to do it, do it to the end! ’Wang Hai happily patted Lu Hong’s shoulder like two brothers, completely ignoring Lu Hong’s mournful face, ‘Don’t worry, your subordinates all died in battle when the bandits attacked the camp tonight, I testify! Compassionate money will be available at that time! Won't get in the way of your name! 』

  『Don’t be so frustrated, this is a good thing! Think about it... Zhongmu will give you a subsidy at that time, and you will apply for one yourself. How much to send to them is up to you to decide..." Wang Hai took Lu Hong and sat down in the big tent of the bandit suppression camp, "This In the world, no matter what you do, you need money... If you have money, you will have new subordinates, and if you have money, you can also show filial piety to your boss, your boss will like you more, you can be promoted, and then you will have Opportunity to make more money... So, money matters! 』

  Lu Hong was still a little depressed, "But I think life is more important. Isn't it miserable if you have money but don't spend your life?" 』

  『屮! Life without money is even worse! ’ Wang Hai let out a sound.

  Lu Hong was startled for a moment.

  It seems reasonable to say so?

  『This is the first time for everyone. It was indeed a little painful for the first time," Wang Hai said carelessly, "It's good to get used to it, and think about the cool things, isn't it all right? 』

  Lu Hong said: "Then how many times have you done it?" 』

  Wang Hai stared and said, "It's not you, it's us!" 』

  Lu Hong said: "This will cause problems...you can see that there is a problem now, here I am...who is above you?" Surname Pan? No, if there were only people with the surname Pan, you wouldn’t be so bold...』

  Wang Hai touched his head and frowned, "Tsk... I regret leaving you behind..."

  『No,』Lu Hong waved his hand and said, 『You don’t have to worry about this... After knowing this, I think my choice seems to be correct...』

"Oh? Feel good now? 』Wang Hai laughed out loud.

  『Just a little bit,』 Lu Hong nodded, 『But if something happens, we, I mean you and me, will still be thrown out as a scapegoat... Do you think this is cool? 』

  Wang Hai smiled, the deep nasolabial folds on his face seemed to have been slashed, "What do you mean?" 』

  Lu Hong said: "I mean...you and I are too weak, too young...what do you think?" Why not take advantage of this opportunity...』

"Shut up! "Wang Haiteng stood up immediately, then walked around the tent twice with his hands behind his back, and then rushed to the curtain of the tent and ordered, "Twenty steps away from the tent!" Without my order! No one will come near! 』

  The guards outside the big tent walked out in response.

  Wang Hai lowered the curtain, turned his head and glared at Lu Hong, "You are so bold!" 』

  Lu Hong waved his hand, "I'm not very courageous, really, I didn't realize until I got here that I'm really not very courageous..."

  Wang Hai stared at Lu Hong, and suddenly laughed after a while, "Hehe, haha, I suddenly realized that you are completely different from before...how should I say it?" 』

  Lu Hong frowned, "That's called a chasm, the back chasm is... Forget it, that's not important, I mean, do you want what I just said? 』

  Sometimes, once a person is willing to go all out, his mind is opened. This is the case for Lu Hong, since there is no retreat, he can only make a way forward. As long as he can reach the top of the mountain, how many people will care whether he climbed up from the front mountain or from the back ditch?

  Wang Hai sat down again, "Say it. 』

"If my guess is correct, your original plan was to kill me first and delay the exposure time... Then you can take advantage of this period of time to transfer money..." Lu Hong pointed to the west, "If it really doesn't work, The symptoms are not right, that is...fleeing elsewhere? After all, money is money wherever it goes, and it can be spent, right? 』

  Wang Hai silently did not say yes or no.

  Lu Hong smiled, "Then why, I've been thinking about this why just now...why do we have to work hard, only leftovers if we do a good job, and we have to take responsibility for a poor job?" No, don't get excited... I know you might want to say that they have a lot of people, they have a lot of money, what are they doing... I mean, if we can be like them... then...』

  Wang Hai was stunned.

  『I am loyal to the great man, loyal to the emperor, loyal to the prime minister, with my blood for the country, and my ambition for the country,’ Lu Hong said word by word, 『Why, why am I worse than them? You say, why? 』

  『…』Wang Hai was silent for a moment, leaned forward a little, and said, “Tell me more. 』

  『I’m here to check for spies. Only spies can be promoted... 』Lu Hong pointed to himself, and then pointed to Wang Hai, 『You are the leader of the army, and only thieves can make merit...』

  『So the first step is to have spies for me, and thieves for you...』 Lu Hong’s voice became lower and lower, and he said, “Then there are soldiers and horses. Only strong soldiers and horses have the authority to speak...”

  Wang Hai nodded.

  Whether it is to be a person or to find a job, you need a development outline and clear goals.

  Wang Hai didn't have these before, but now Lu Hong has brought him some small strategies that can strengthen the army.

  『For the big man! ’Lu Hong said in a deep voice, and stretched out his hand.

  『For the big man! ’ Wang Hai repeated, reaching out his hand and holding it with Lu Hong.

  『For the Son of Heaven! For the prime minister! 』

  『For the Son of Heaven! For the prime minister! 』

  The two looked at each other and laughed, slapped each other, and held each other's arms. If you didn't know that the two of you met each other with swords and guns before, you would have thought that the relationship between the two of them was so close that they were like brothers...
