Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 910: The news of war comes to the capital.

"County Lord, please help us speak!"

"Yes, we are actually victims of this matter. At that time, Wang Jun's people contacted us privately, threatening us with our family and relatives, saying that if we didn't obey, we would be massacred!"

"That Wang Jun was so cruel in the past, everyone in the Northland knows, but they dared to be angry and dared not speak out. We have no choice but to contact you that day because we still have righteousness in our hearts. A little while, so that General Zhengbei and the others can wake up."

……

As soon as I walked into the house, I was greeted by many voices begging for mercy.

Since the cells in the county were already overcrowded, and this group of people were related to the crime of collaborating with the enemy, they were not imprisoned in the county jail, but were placed separately.

This house is quite comprehensive, with many soldiers and handlers inside and outside, but there are not many rooms and houses, so Liu Thief Cao and others were all imprisoned together. They all spoke together and made noises. Wu Guangshu felt dizzy for a moment.

However, he quickly caught the rhythm, waved his hands, and said: "Everyone, what are you thinking, I don't know? We don't need to say these cover-up words. Since I am here to see you this time, in fact, It shows that there is still room for discussion, so why do you have to talk nonsense? Why don’t you talk openly and honestly."

As soon as these words came out, Wu Zi, who had been disturbed just now, fell silent instantly. Many people's faces looked ugly, but they were not angry, but pale in fear.

Some people were even trembling faintly out of fear.

Because the news has come in.

In order to stabilize people's hearts, Yang Song had no intention of concealing the news that Chen Zhi defeated Wang Jun and directly captured Wang Jun. Of course, he had to spread it as soon as possible. On the one hand, it was to prevent the recurrence of trouble in the city; on the other hand, it was also necessary to Destroy the defense lines of the will of the enemy troops besieging the city.

The lifting of the siege and Ruan Bao's surrender confirmed this without meaning.

Before the news spread to this courtyard, all the clan members who were locked up in the room were full of resentment, thinking that if there was a chance afterwards, they would take revenge——

Before that, they had actually learned through some channels that one of the city gates had been breached, and the Youzhou Army people rushed in, so they felt that the overall situation was settled. Maybe in a long time, they and others will be asked out.

It's just that it didn't come after sitting and waiting, and it didn't come after waiting again.

At the beginning, there was still the sound of shouting for killing outside the door, but as time went on, even the shouting for killing disappeared, and it was so quiet that it made people feel uneasy.

Just like that, until dawn, a piece of news came that was like a bolt from the blue——

The real master of the Youzhou army, Wang Jun, the governor of Liangzhou, has been reduced to a prisoner!

Of course they would not believe such news, but the subsequent development of the situation, especially after the siege was lifted and the enemy troops accepted reorganization, made people in the room realize more and more that this was probably not a joke.

As a result, the atmosphere in the room gradually became solemn, and their initial doubts gradually evolved into unspeakable fear. Some people were even extremely upset, feeling that they had made the biggest mistake in their lives!

Originally, it was because my family's interests were greatly damaged, so I thought of fighting. However, the result of this fight is not that the interests are damaged, but the entire family is likely to suffer disaster.Now when I heard what Wu Guangshu said, the man who was mentally exhausted due to a restless night suddenly collapsed, started crying, and then rushed over desperately.

Wu Guangshu was startled by this posture and movement, and he was thinking, could it be that someone was under heavy pressure and wanted to take a desperate risk, take him as a hostage, and blackmail Yang Song?
But in the next moment, he knew that he was wrong, but after seeing the man flying over, he actually knelt down in front of Wu Guangshu, and pleaded there, asking him to go up and down for the sake of years of friendship. In the sense of being a subordinate, he can help his brothers.

This person took the lead, and the mood of the others suddenly became sad. But after all, many people are also prominent figures in the city. Even if they know that life and death are at stake, they can't wipe their faces. However, the meaning of lowering their posture and flattering, But it was obvious that they were all whispers of pleading, hoping that Wu Guangshu could intercede on their behalf.

"Everyone," Wu Guangshu saw that the fire was almost done, then he raised his hands and pressed them lightly, "please listen to me."

Suddenly, the whole room fell silent.

This change of arms and fingers immediately made Wu Guangshu feel an indescribable sense of comfort, and then he felt the sweetness of authority.

You must know that although he is a county magistrate, he also has a background. In the past, it seemed that the government orders were well-informed, but after careful investigation, the people below did not fully implement them. After all, they had to make some discounts and ask for a discussion. How can they be as straightforward as they are now?
You must know that these people in front of them rely on their clan power and hereditary officials. They usually only respect Wu Guangshu on the surface, but they also have criticisms behind their backs. Wu Guangshu knows all of this.

Now they are all sincerely obedient, and they all want to prick up their ears and listen carefully to Wu Guangshu's every instruction.

This feeling was of course intoxicating, but Wu Guangshu soon woke up and realized that the reason why these people in front of him were like this was not because of himself, let alone the official position of the court he represented, but because of the person behind him. General Zhengbei!

So, after he was determined in his heart to surrender, he said: "We celebrities don't tell secret words. Although I am a bit mean-spirited, if I say that I want you to completely escape the disaster, you probably won't believe it, so we just say it directly. Well, you also know how the Zheng family and the Liu family offended the general and his elders, and then got away with it. You must have some idea in your mind. In this case, get ready."

"This……"

Everyone, look at me and I look at you, all with painful expressions on their faces.

The fortunes of the Zheng family and the Liu family were directly cut in half. It can't even be described as a serious loss of vitality. These two families have a strong foundation. If they were replaced by an ordinary family, they would be completely destroyed in a short time.

The people of these clans are not stupid, so how could they agree, but they also understand the formality.

"If you don't agree, then forget it," Wu Guangshu understood everyone's thoughts and spoke again, "It was just collaborating with the enemy during the war, and now it is still under military control. If something unexpected happens, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep any of your family property. , even this wealth and life have to be thrown away, which is more important, and it is selfish, I put Wu’s words here, you can decide for yourself whether you want to obey it or not."

Sure enough, these words were like a needle, directly piercing the heart. Everyone smiled bitterly and nodded and said they would consider it, but they did not express their stance immediately.

Wu Guangshu also knew that such matters were not decided by these individuals, and since he was the messenger, there was no need to get involved, so he said goodbye and left.

Then, news spread out from this courtyard, causing waves in various courtyards, manors, and forts inside and outside the city.

At the same time, the news from the North also reached the capital city of Luoyang, but the military situation was raging. What it said was just the fight between Wang Jun and Chen Zhi, followed closely by a group of people from the King of Jiangdu. Feng memorial.
