At this moment, I could only hear the earth-shattering drums on the mountain, and then a shout of killing with thousands of people shouting in unison, like thunder hitting the top, shook the eardrums. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The crown prince and Fan Rui's hearts trembled together, and they hurriedly walked out of the military tent, staring at the mountain, only to see gray figures all over the mountains, like a river rolling and rushing, rushing towards the prince's private army on the mountainside, the bright blades reflected the imposing faces of the soldiers, like a group of hungry wolves, showing their hideous fangs to their prey. The prince's private army on the mountainside was soon overwhelmed by this gray torrent, and even the waves did not rise at all.

Fan Rui's face suddenly turned like ashes, and he muttered to himself: "Reinforcements...... Sure enough, the emperor was really prepared......"

The prince's body trembled slightly, his face was blue, and he gritted his teeth and said: "It's just a few tens of thousands of horses, don't forget that we still have 50,000 horses from Chai Mengshan about to arrive, and then the two armies will be united, and they will not be able to escape from the palm of their lonely hands even if they have 100,000 horses!" ”

"Herald! The whole army contracted its defense, resisted the reinforcements on the top of the mountain, and insisted on waiting until the border army of Chai Mengshan arrived. The prince gritted his teeth and gave a military order categorically.

Fan Rui's heart had already sunk into the abyss quickly, and he pursed his lips and opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything. At this moment, he no longer dared to break the prince's bubble-like expectations.

Since the emperor has arranged an ambush on this Shenlie Mountain, hasn't he made arrangements for Chai Mengshan? Can the 50,000 border troops that the prince is looking forward to still reach the foot of this Shenlie Mountain?

The prince turned his head, and there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth, Father, you have ambush soldiers, don't I have any? Even if Chai Mengshan is completely annihilated by you today, you can't escape the fate of death, the throne will definitely belong to me today, and no one can stop it!

On the upper floor of the northern city of the capital, Ren Xiaoyao was staring coldly at Qin Chong, who was gray.

"General Qin, the duty of a courtier, you don't need me to teach you, where to go, you choose for yourself, don't forget, the life and death of more than 50,000 soldiers of the city defense army, as well as the life and death of their families and relatives, it all depends on your decision." Ren Xiaoyao said coldly.

"I ...... I...... I don't know. Qin Chong's lips trembled, and his face was not bloody.

Ren Xiaoyao sighed and said, "Okay, I won't force you, I hope that when the prince's army is defeated and wants to retreat to the capital to hold on, General Qin will make the right choice......"

Qin Chong froze, and a look of horror appeared in his eyes.

Ren Xiaoyao looked at him, nodded affirmatively, and said solemnly: "If the prince rebels, he will be defeated!" General Qin, let's do it for yourself. Now I'm going to do something, and I hope you don't stop me. ”

After Ren Xiaoyao finished speaking, he turned around and grinned at the dozen or so generals of the city defense army standing at the beacon tower, and then lowered his face and shouted: "Someone!" Beat the drums, gather the generals! All the generals above the partial general, all go to the Beicheng Tower to listen to the order, if the three drums do not arrive, beheaded! ”

Soon, a dull and ear-damping drum sounded under the city tower, and the sound of "dong dong dong" seemed to knock on the hearts of the generals, making people tremble involuntarily.

Most of the generals of the city defense army were bought by the prince, so they resisted and resisted Ren Xiaoyao, but Ren Xiaoyao was the nominal chief general of the city defense army after all, and the main general convened the generals under his command to discuss the matter, who dared not obey? A few days ago, the deputy general Shen Xin was a good negative teaching material, and Ren Yao beheaded Shen Xin to establish his authority, which has always been deeply feared by the generals.

Soon, the generals gathered in the North City Tower, which had been temporarily arranged as the main general's tent, and the guards at the door and by Ren Xiaoyao's side were all guards from the forbidden army, and the cronies who were ordered by the emperor to protect Ren Xiaoyao's safety.

The generals looked calm or sneered, and pushed into the city tower.

In the city tower, Ren Xiaoyao Da Ma Jin Dao sat on the seat of the main general, and dozens of guards stood beside him, the guards pressed their swords on their waists, and looked at the generals who rushed in with cold expressions, and a fierce killing aura gradually spread in the city tower.

Qin Zhong sat on the right side of Ren Xiaoyao, his expression was discouraged, his face was depressed, he sat motionless without saying a word, and he didn't even look at the generals who came in the first place.

After the point was completed, all the generals had arrived, Ren Xiaoyao smiled, and then stood up, with a gloomy face, staring at the generals for a moment, and said coldly: "Today, the general gathers the generals for the next military order: from now on, the whole city will be under martial law, all the city gates will be closed, no one will be allowed to enter or exit, and the city defense army will begin to patrol the city in formation, and order the Yin of Jinling Mansion to immediately send a patrol officer to arrest the city, cooperate with the city defense army to maintain law and order in the city, and post notices everywhere to prevent the capital from falling into chaos." ”

"What? Closing the city gates? A lieutenant general named Deng Xiang of the city defense army stood up suddenly, his face was blue, he glared at Ren Xiaoyao angrily, and said loudly: "General Ren, what do you mean by this?" Why do you need to close the gates? Whose orders are you under your orders? ”

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his expression showed a little joy, and he said with a smile: "General Deng disagrees with General Ben's decision? Great, come on, come on, tell everyone your point of view, why you don't agree, what do you think, when you questioned General Ben, where did the inexplicable courage come from...... Let's talk about it, let's talk about it, speak freely, ah, General Ben is not an unreasonable person, I believe everyone must feel the same way, right? ”

Looking at Ren Xiaoyao's kind smile on his face, which was as kind as a blessing from heaven, a chill pierced the bone marrow rose in the hearts of the generals. ――A few days ago, when he slashed Shen Xin Liwei on the school field, didn't he also have this creepy smile on his face?

Deng Xiang suffocated unconsciously, Ren Yao's smile made him very uneasy, this feeling became stronger and stronger, and now he felt his neck cold, and the head on his neck seemed to leave his body at any time, and fell into the dust, just like that colleague in the army, Shen Xin.

But Deng Xiang turned his head slightly, through the window of the city tower, and saw the dense city defense soldiers lined up under the city wall, Deng Xiang's heart couldn't help but regain a little confidence, I have so many soldiers loyal to me who are guarding under the city wall, just wait for my order, they will rush up, here and now, this kid surnamed Ren still dares to kill me?

Thinking of this, Deng Xiang couldn't help sneering, straightened his waist and said coldly: "General Ren doesn't give the last general a hat, my city defense army does have the responsibility of defending the city, but according to the laws of our Hua Dynasty, unless the emperor personally decrees, or the enemy soldiers are coming to the city, at any time, the gate of the capital is not allowed to close. ”

Ren Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Yes, of course General Ben knows...... In other words, General Deng disagrees with General Ben's decision, right? ”

Deng Xiang glared angrily and said loudly: "Yes! The last general disagrees! This move is a conspiracy, and the general will not dare to agree! ”

Ren Xiaoyao licked his lips happily, rubbed his hands again, stared at Deng Xiangzhi with his eyes, and muttered in his mouth: "...... Great, what do you really want, I'm really panicked if I don't gamble...... Just as I was worried about who to take the knife, this stupid bird stood up, tsk, what a heroic......"

Immediately, Ren Xiaoyaojun's face sank, and he said viciously: "Deng Xiang, since you dare to disobey the general's military orders, you should understand what ......the consequences will be.

After speaking, without waiting for Deng Xiang to speak, Ren Xiaoyao shouted: "Someone! Take down Deng Xiang, tie him to the arrow stack of the city tower, and behead him in front of all the soldiers! ”

As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen generals in the city tower stood up at the same time, blocking in front of Deng Xiang, glaring at Ren Xiaoyao angrily, and the hostility in his eyes burst out like a raging flame, burning all over Ren Xiaoyao's body.

"You ...... What is your attitude? Ren Xiaoyao saw that all the generals were staring at him without kindness, his neck suddenly shrank, and he asked with a little nervousness.

The generals were silent, just staring at him and sneering, and then everyone turned their eyes to Qin Chong, who was silent, as if they were waiting for him to give an order, and they were waiting to take down Ren Xiaoyao.

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes rolled, and after observing clearly, as if he had just seen the situation in front of him clearly, he couldn't help but tremble a few times, and exclaimed: "You guys...... Collective rebellion? ”

Ren Xiaoyao's guards immediately drew their blades, pointed at the generals diagonally with rapid movements, and at the same time divided four people to surround Ren Xiaoyao in the middle and protect them tightly. The atmosphere in the castle tower suddenly became tense, and the two were tense, filled with the smell of gunpowder.

Qin Zhong raised his head, glanced at the generals, looked at Ren Xiaoyao who looked panicked, opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything, and lowered his head again.

"Have you figured it out? Don't regret making this decision, there is no regret medicine in this world......" Ren Xiaoyao rolled his eyes and tried to make his last effort.

"Humph! With a tyrannical and domineering commander like you, what if we are the opposite? A general snorted coldly.

Ren Xiaoyao sighed, shook his head and said, "You finally ran naked all the way on the road of crime, running farther and farther, and you couldn't catch up...... It's immoral! ”

Immediately, Ren Xiaoyao suddenly smiled at everyone, then lowered his face and shouted in a deep voice: "Vinson, send a signal, surround them all!" ”

Wen Sen beside him shook his hand when he heard this, only to hear a loud "bang", Ren Xiaoyao was so frightened that his legs weakened, and without hesitation, he went under the only table in the city tower.

But the situation inside the castle tower changed at this moment.

I saw countless figures along the window, on the city wall, and even on the beams on the roof, they were wearing uniform black suits, as well as the costumes of the guards of the forbidden army, and the generals in the building had no time to react, and in the blink of an eye, these people surrounded the city tower, and then, these people in groups of three or five, with an uncommon combined attack, quickly exchanged hands with more than a dozen rebel generals in the city tower.

The rebel generals were originally also proficient in martial arts, but their greatest strength was the strategy of leading the troops and arranging the troops, and of course they were not as skilled as the shadow and the masters of the Great Inner Forbidden Army, not to mention that there were still several masters besieging one person, so within a few rounds, these rebel generals were all subdued, and the shadows and guards did not dare to be careless, and tied them one by one with ropes like a zongzi.

A rebellion that was supposed to be life-and-death was wiped out by hundreds of guards and shadow subordinates who were at large.

Under the city wall, the soldiers of the city defense army were alarmed by the loud noise in the city tower, everyone looked up at the city tower in disbelief, the army began to have some commotion for a while, and the generals who were taken down had their own henchmen in the army, and they also began to move at this time, intending to rescue them.

Qin Chong stared at these well-tied generals with a pale face, his expression was full of fear and disbelief, and he couldn't stop muttering: "It turns out that you have already made arrangements, it turns out that you have already made arrangements......"

turned his head to look for Ren Xiaoyao again, but saw him along the horse race track on the city wall, gritting his teeth to chase and kill Vinson, chasing and fighting, beating and scolding: "Dog's day Vinson!" Lao Tzu wants you to sound the arrow as a signal, you fucking set off a cannon for Lao Tzu, what do you mean? Scare Lao Tzu to death, hello, sit in my seat, don't you? Don't! ”

"Spare your life! The castle tower is a room, and where the arrows are fired, the only way to fire them is to fire......" Winson screamed mournfully, and he did not forget to defend himself.

"Huh? Dare to talk back? It's against you! Flying legs! ”

"Ahh

Qin Chong's eyes were dull, and cold sweat flowed down his head uncontrollably......

Looking at Ren Yao's guards and shadow subordinates, they were also full of black lines, turned around with interest, didn't look at anything, and let Lord Ren play freely......

※※※

After the pursuit, Ren Yao returned to the castle tower satisfied, followed by Wen Sen, who was limping and had a blue nose and swollen face.

Seeing the generals of the city defense army who were full of horror and tied up strongly, Ren Xiaoyao's mood suddenly became comfortable again, looked up to the sky and laughed a few times, and then his expression was closed, and he said loudly with a serious face: "Now I declare, you are all Lao Tzu's meat tickets, hurry up and call your family members to pay the ransom, more than twelve hours, Lao Tzu will tear up the tickets!" ”

After speaking, Ren Xiaoyao laughed a few more proudly, and then turned his head and shouted: "Drumming!" Order the sergeants to assemble in formation, and General Ben will rob! …… It's wrong, it's a lecture! ”

The north tower of the capital is close to the barracks of the city defense army, so it is sparsely populated, from the root of the city wall, the number of miles in the circle is the open flat land of a horse and the flat river, in order to resist the enemy army, when the capital is built, it is surrounded on all sides by the city wall, and the arrow tower of the four city gates is connected with the main building with a wall, and the vacant land in the middle is called the urn city, which is used to garrison soldiers and train soldiers.

At this moment, tens of thousands of soldiers of the city defense army were densely gathered in the middle of the urn city, staring at General Ren standing with his sword on the city tower with a shocked or frightened or angry expression.

Their reaction had already been expected by Ren Yao, after all, the dozen or so high-ranking generals who had just been arrested had been operating in the city defense army for many years, and there must have been a large number of soldiers loyal to them under them. In an army, it is normal for generals to cultivate cronies, and fighting is to die, as a qualified general, if there is no means to control his subordinates, if there is no cronies to help him, it is difficult to imagine that after the general goes to the battlefield, he will not be pushed out by the soldiers who disobey him to block the sword and arrow.

But now it doesn't matter to Ren Xiaoyao, even if the generals have more cronies, but their leader is in his hands, capture the thief and capture the king first, the wisdom of the ancients pointed out the most correct way to deal with this kind of thing.

Ren Xiaoyao is very happy now, it seems that he has used this Ren method correctly.

Standing on the city tower, looking down at the soldiers with different expressions in the middle of the urn city, Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but feel a sense of complacency.

In the future, an appendix will be added to the back of the Ren family's genealogy, which records the great exploits of General Ren, so that the descendants of the Ren family can worship and look forward to the New Year's holidays and remember the bittersweet memories.

It's a good habit to do what you think.

"Hey, hey! Old Wen. Ren Xiaoyao faced the soldiers, flattened his face, and called softly.

Wen Sen was complacent about his assistance to Lord Ren for making a contribution to the court today, standing beside Ren Xiaoyao and counting with his fingers calculating what reward the emperor and Lord Ren would give him, when he heard this, he immediately tilted his head and said with a flattering smile: "What do you command?" ”

Ren Xiaoyao pondered for a while, and then said: "You take a pen and paper later, and write down the great achievements of the official today, remember, the handwriting should be neat, not only must there be time and place, but also more polish in the plot, first describe how the enemy is fierce and difficult to fight, and then focus on how the official will clean up these fierce and difficult enemies one by one today, the soldiers are not bloody, and the soldiers who surrender without a fight, oops!" What a genius! …… What are you doing? Go write it! ”

Vinson's eyes straightened, and he said, "Write...... What to write? How to write? ”

Ren Xiaoyao said unhappily: "Do you still need me to teach this?" Isn't your usual sycophant quite neat? Just turn those sycophants into words...... cough, it doesn't seem to be good, your sycophants are flashy, although you scratch the itch, but the strength is not enough...... You write like this: In order to control these dog-day generals and prevent them from leading the troops into chaos, Lord Ren Xiaoyao deliberately took risks alone, went deep into the enemy's den, and then fought more than 800 people with his bare hands, and finally used a trick The long-lost 'Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty', and finally took all the enemies down, made meritorious contributions to the court, and relieved the emperor's worries, great, Lord Ren! Great, Lord Ren! …… Alright, go down and write. ”

Vinson's lips trembled, tears rolled in his eyes, and he looked at Ren Xiaoyao with great pity, and said, "That...... So, what about us? ”

Ren Yao: "What are you?" ”

Wen Sen wiped away his tears and said with a sad face: "My lord, you fought more than 800 by yourself, and you also had the 'Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty Sect', and you have cleaned up all the enemies, why did we go?" ”

Ren Xiaoyao understood what he meant, and dared to think that Lao Tzu had robbed them of all the credit, damn, Lao Tzu is most afraid that the emperor will be promoted to my official son again, how can he rob you of the credit?

"Look at your worthless look!" Ren Xiaoyao scoffed at Wen Sen's small belly chicken intestines: "This is my memoir, kept for myself, and it will be used in my Ren family's ancestral hall in the future for future generations to brag, what is the matter with you?" What's the matter with your name appearing next to the ancestral tablet in my ancestral hall? ”

When Wen Sen heard this, he turned his sorrow into joy, and happily turned around to record the great achievements of Lord Ren who fought more than 800 times.

Before leaving, he turned his head uneasily, and said cautiously: "Lord Ren, are you really just keeping it to yourself?" You won't just take it as a fold and hand it directly to the emperor to report your merits, right? ”

"Get out! Get out of here! Ren Xiaoyao was furious.

Brainless things, Lao Tzu fought more than 800 by himself, and when the emperor saw it, not only would he not remember my merits, but he would treat me for the crime of bullying the king, and the cowhide was too unsound, do I dare to show it to the emperor?

Looking back again, Ren Xiaoyao looked at the tens of thousands of soldiers with different expressions in the urn city, and his heart couldn't help but sink again.

Can these people be of my use? Will they mutiny? If the city defense army is unstable, the variables of this battle are too great.

Luckily, Ren Xiaoyao stood on the high city wall battlements and said in a loud voice: "Soldiers, you also saw that I just took down these dozen generals, because ...... They are trying to rebel! ”

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers were in an uproar, some unbelievers, some angry, and some scolded.

The reaction of the soldiers fell on Ren Xiaoyao's eyes, he couldn't help frowning, and then said loudly: "I know, they are your bosses, they are the generals you are willing to serve, as long as they have a life, you are willing to go to the soup and fire, and even give up this life......

After a pause, Ren Xiaoyao continued: "But have you thought about it? Why do you want to give them allegiance? Is it because they are your generals? Or are they so kind to you? Where does their favor come from? I don't tell you the big truth, what is for the country and the people, for the court and for the society, it's all nonsense! I will ask you, "Who gave you the bread you eat every day and the money you receive every month?" ”

Pointing to the dozen or so generals who were tied up sturdily and with gray faces, Ren Xiaoyao said loudly: "Is it them?" ”

The soldiers were silent, but there was much less resentment in their expressions.

"I don't want to say that you also know that the food, wine, meat, and military salaries you eat are all ordered by the emperor himself, transferred from the treasury, and sent to you! In other words, soldiers, the people who provide for you every month and every year are the emperor! Not the bullshit generals you're loyal to! But do you know what they want you to do? They want you to take up the swords and spears in your hands and go against the emperor, your father, for you to eat, for you to wear, and for you to give you money. ”

Slowly scanning the soldiers, Ren Xiaoyao's eyes showed a violent and fierce light, and he pointed at the soldiers and said viciously: "You can also take care of the family if you raise a dog, what is the emperor raising you for?" Turning the gun against his own? Did the emperor raise more than 50,000 white-eyed wolves? Pat your chest and ask yourself, the human heart is flesh and blood, can you do this? Knowing this, the emperor might as well raise 50,000 dogs! For dogs know more faithfulness to the Lord than you do, and cannot do such ungrateful things, are you not even as good as dogs? ”

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers were in an uproar again, and the resentment on their faces was gone, and all that was left was resentment and guilt.

Yes, the emperor has been raising them with the money from the treasury for so many years, but now we have to raise the swords and guns in our hands against the emperor because of our loyalty to these generals who intend to rebel? What's the difference between doing this and being a brute? General Ren is right, the emperor is better at raising a dog than raising us!

The faces of all the soldiers were realized, and their expressions finally gradually calmed down.

The eldest husband has something to do and something not to do, they are all bloody men, and they can't do ungrateful things no matter what.
