"Boss, you're finally back!"

"It's okay, right, I see that the boss's complexion is much better, it seems that this trip to the demon clan should be very fruitful." ”

"Boss, during the time you left, we were in a hurry, for fear that there would be movement in Xizhou, and in the imperial capital, we heard the news, it seems that someone is also going to target you, tsk, this time we led troops to Xizhou, we are afraid that we will really face the encirclement and suppression of various forces. ”

On the first night Qin Tian returned to Crescent City, he had a discussion with everyone.

At this time, the battle situation in Xizhou was in a stalemate, and the people on King Wu's side were busy fighting with the people of the demon clan for the unexpected treasure, but they sent people to attack Yecheng several times, but they were all resisted by Xu Kuan and Zhao Lanjin.

The Xizhou Army, which has been repeatedly frustrated, may also know the ability of Xu Kuan, the "Hundred Defeated General", and after losing tens of thousands of troops in several attacks, they began to lay out around Yecheng, but in the face of Xu Kuan's gradual build-up of Yecheng, it seems that they have no choice.

So at this time, it was normal for Qin Tian to hear that someone in the imperial capital wanted to be unfavorable to him.

King Wu fled from the imperial capital, there is no doubt that there must be his henchmen hidden in the imperial capital.

Now the Xizhou battlefield has been stabilized by Qin Tian after Qin Tian's arrival, which is not good for King Wu.

Since there is no breakthrough in the frontal war, then King Wu will definitely think of some crooked ways, just like some powerful ministers in ancient times to deal with generals who were fighting abroad, such as Qin Hui and Yue Fei.

Qin Tian didn't want to be Yue Fei.

"I'm curious, what are the people in the imperial capital preparing to do with me?"

Qin Tian looked at Xiao Zhuang, he knew that now his intelligence system, after Xiao Zhuang's painstaking operation and expansion, had almost infiltrated into all troops, and this news must have been found by Xiao Zhuang.

"On the Ice Emperor's side, someone joined forces to write to the Ice Emperor, asking the Ice Emperor to withdraw you, I heard that the Ice Emperor first refused, and later, they joined forces to write a book, asking the Ice Emperor to give you a deadline, which is to kill the Martial King, and this place will pacify the deadline in Xizhou. ”

Xiao Zhuang said brightly, "Their old routine is here again." ”

Qin Tian smiled faintly: "What is the reaction of the Ice Emperor?"

"The Ice Emperor hasn't replied yet," Xiao Zhuang said, "However, under the calm weather, there may really be various variables, boss, we have to be prepared to deal with it." ”

Zhou Yang said: "Boss, as far as I know, because our neutrality does not take sides, the crown prince and the Nine Emperor Princes are very afraid of our forces, so recently, they may have the intention of temporarily joining forces to kill us together." ”

Swish!

Qin Tian's eyes lit up.

In fact, what he is more worried about now is that this incident will happen.

If the Nine Emperor Princes and the Crown Prince join forces, then in the future, there will definitely be no place for him in the imperial capital.

Once he is in danger, even the Ice Emperor may directly kill him because of his two sons.

Although Qin Tian was now relying on the Ice Emperor, he knew that he and the Ice Emperor would have an end sooner or later.

What's more, in the eyes of the Ice Emperor, he should also be a pawn to be used, right?

A chess piece used to balance the crown prince and the Nine Emperor Princes.

But now Qin Tian is unwilling to be anyone's pawn.

"This news, the third child, you have to hurry up to inquire about me, the enemy on the battlefield in front is not terrible, and these hungry wolves in the rear, we are the more important embankment. ”

Qin Tian thought for a while and said, "In addition, second, you personally bring dozens of masters back to the imperial capital and take Fan Bing and Du Qiuniang over, I'm afraid that at this time, someone will attack them." ”

"Understood. ”

Lin Yu nodded.

"In addition, boss, at present, there is some instability in our army, especially during your absence, there are some generals, hehe, I think it should be the crown prince or the Nine Emperor Princes, who began to spread all kinds of rumors and disobeyed. ”

Zhou Yang stood up and said: "We want to gain a foothold on the battlefield, and now we rely on the army, military spirit and combat effectiveness, it is too important, I suggest that the boss suppress it with an iron fist." ”

"How is it an iron-fisted suppression method?" Qin Tian didn't expect that there were so many other people hiding in the army here.

However, it is understandable that in the imperial capital, in fact, except for the five hundred personal guards he originally brought from the eastern capital, there is no real army that belongs to him.

It's dangerous.

In the event of a war, the troops may abandon him in an instant.

Zuo Yuanhao said: "There are two types of generals who are emotional, one is the group that came from the imperial capital with us, and the spies themselves hide from all walks of life, and the other is the local people and horses on the side of the Xizhou Army, which are also mixed with the old department of Liang Qishan, which is even more difficult to manage." ”

"General, I suggest that the thief be captured first, and the king should be punished first, and the few who took the lead should be punished and given them a deterrent, and the rest of the people, I think, will never dare to make another mistake. ”

Qin Tian nodded: "The army's heart can't be messed up, this time, I want to build a force that belongs to my Qin Tian!"

After speaking, Qin Tian looked at Zhou Yang: "Old Zhou, you make a list of troublemakers for me." ”

……

In order to stabilize the morale of the army, Qin Tian discussed with Zhou Yang and Zuo Yuanhao many times in the past two days.

Zhou Yang's suggestion was to act immediately and suppress it with an iron fist, so that everyone would be afraid and surrender.

Zuo Yuanhao suggested taking moderate measures, stabilizing those people first, spending this period of fighting with the Xizhou army, and waiting until the victory to find those people to settle down, after all, now is the time to employ people.

One suggestion deals with killing, the other with forbearance.

In the end, Qin Tian chose the former.

On this day, he summoned all the non-front-line middle-level generals, including the generals on the list given to him by Zhou Yang, for a meeting.

In addition to Qin Tian and others, there were more than 80 people at the venue.

After Qin Tian's opening remarks, he made arrangements.

Among them, the four largest generals, Wang Lin and Jiang Fei, were the prince's men, each leading 30,000 troops, and Zhang Yilong and Su Cheng, who were the nine emperors' people, each led 30,000 troops, and these four people had already led 100,000 troops.

In addition, there are generals of other forces, a total of twenty-one people, these people are either logistics generals who are partly involved in the supply of grain and grass, or generals who lead 10,000 troops, and the total number of troops under their command is already 80,000.

180,000 people, if these people are allowed to develop, these 180,000 people will not only not become Qin Tian's soldiers, but maybe, even become a hidden danger in his army!

When there is no continuation, it will be disturbed.

These twenty-five people, at this moment, have become a thorn in Qin Tian's side.

According to the prior arrangement, Qin Tian directly announced his decision to transfer Wang Lin and other 25 people from positions with real power and arrange them to enter idle positions at the same level.

Sure enough, as soon as the order came out, the venue exploded in an instant!
