Chapter 625: Be prepared
Zeng Xianyi is a martial artist with developed limbs and a simple mind from the outside, but in fact, under this pure, rough appearance, he has to hide a seven-trick exquisite heart, otherwise, he would not have been able to hide from Jiang Dawei back then and become Jiang Dawei's trusted pro-guard commander, thus playing a pivotal role in Jiang Xinliang's coup d'Γ©tat to overthrow his father.
Therefore, when Ye Zhen and Niu Ben appeared in front of him, he was quite calm and did not shout and kill.
"General Ye Zhen, I need you to give me an explanation." He looked at Ye Zhen, "There is an agreement between our county guard and General Gao, in the past year, our two sides have also cooperated happily, General Gao is currently fighting with Donghu, I don't believe that at this time, General Gao will let you invade Yuyang County on a large scale, although the Yuyang soldiers are not as good at fighting as the Eastern Army, but they are not embroidered pillows." β
Ye Zhen smiled and spread his hands, "General Zeng, if I say that all our actions over the past few days have been to save you, will you believe it?" β
Zeng Xian's eyebrows jumped, and he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and the messenger sent to the county town disappeared without a trace, and I don't know if it fell into the hands of the Eastern Army, if it wasn't for the fact that he was cut off now, and there were thousands of foot soldiers in front of the Eastern Army, why did he have to deal with Ye Zhenxu? The 3,000 men and horses in his hand are the essence of the Yuyang County soldiers, if it is not necessary, Zeng Xianyi will never want to start a war with the Eastern Army.
"Is General Ye joking? What do I need you to save? He said coldly.
"I knew you didn't believe it." Ye Zhen shook his head, "General Zeng, Jiang Xinliang is going to take Yuyang County to Zhao Country together, do you really think that he is doing something that he doesn't know and doesn't know?" β
Zeng Xian's face changed greatly, his hand was already on the hilt, and he almost blurted out the word "person", looking at the two people opposite who were calm and calm. He swallowed back the two words that came to his lips vividly.
"General Ye Zhen, what are you talking nonsense?" He said word by word: "You can eat indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense, you don't dare to do anything to you, Ye Zhen, you have a very high status in the Eastern Army, and your relationship with Mrs. Gao is extraordinary, I took you, what do you dare to do to me?" β
Ye Zhen laughed, "General Zeng." If you don't want people to know, unless you don't do it, to be honest, Jiang Xinliang disappointed my general. Originally, the relationship between our Zhengdong Mansion and the Yan State Imperial Court was not very good, even if Jiang Xinliang pulled the flag and shouted that he wanted to break away from Yan State and establish himself as the king, we have nothing to say, but if you want to vote for Zhao State, it will be different. We can't ignore it, again. Even if you want to do it, you have to do it secretly, and you have to do it unconsciously, but now. Let everyone know, General Zeng, we stood in front of you and told you this big secret that you think. So, do you think the Yan Imperial Court didn't know? Tan Feng doesn't know? β
Zeng Xianyi's face slowly turned white, little by little. Large drops of sweat began to ooze from his pale face.
"What do you want to do? Has Tan Feng already mobilized a large army to start attacking Yuyang, you trapped me here because you want me not to return to Yuyang, right? Ye Zhen, if this is the case, then I'm not welcome, take you down, force the Eastern Army to make way, and I want to go back to Yuyang County. Zeng Xian shouted loudly.
Ye Zhen shook his head, stepped aside, pulled a chair and sat down, "General Zeng, you think things too simply. Tan Feng, if our intelligence is not wrong, at this time, he should be in Yuyang County, once he makes a move, whether your Jiang County Shou is still alive, I have doubts. β
"Yuyang County is under the control of the county guard, if Tan Feng really dares to enter the county seat, it is his own net." Zeng Xianyi was incredulous.
Ye Zhen laughed, "General Zeng, please forgive me, if Tan Feng appears in Yuyang County, it means that Jiang Xinliang is no longer able to control the county city at all, and he is also unable to control the army under his command." Don't count on Zhao Jun, Tan Feng is scheming, even clever tricks, at this time, Zhao Guo has already caught fire in the backyard, Zhao Mu went back to put out the fire in a hurry, and there is only one Zhou Changshou left, and it is strange not to be beaten by Tan Feng all over the ground to find teeth! β
"I still can't believe it." Zeng Xianyi shook his head slowly.
"General Zeng, I said that we are here to save you, there is no water in this word, you are Jiang Xinliang's henchman, Tan Feng will not forget this, if he has already killed Jiang Xinliang, then he will never let you go, maybe the next moment, if you want to lead the troops back to Yuyang City, the order will arrive, when the time comes, you just need to take down the messenger who sent the letter, and the truth will be revealed." Ye Zhendao. "General Zeng, now it seems that you won't believe us, and I won't say more, so I'll go back, if I'm waiting for you in the camp outside the city, where to go, General Zeng, you can make up your own mind!"
Looking at the back of the two Shi Shiran leaving, Zeng Xianyi's hand was raised several times, and finally put it down, at this moment, he had already believed it for six or seven years, Ye Zhen came to himself, it was nothing more than coveting the three thousand sons and daughters under his command and the place of Anlu, and the Eastern Army wanted to enter Yuyang County, which was not only a matter today. It's just that at the moment, Gao Yuan and Donghu are fighting in full swing, and the eastern army has not been caught, so they can only stand still, if it weren't for this, the county guard wouldn't let himself be stationed here with three thousand erlangs, isn't it just to guard against the eastern army?
But now, the Eastern Army did not move, but Yuyang County was about to be lost.
How can things be done so secretly? Zeng Xianyi sighed in his heart. Looking at the frame of the Eastern Army, he will never let himself go back to aid Yuyang, if it is really as Ye Zhen said, go back by himself, in addition to the sheep into the tiger's mouth, is it really useful?
If Yuyang has fallen into the hands of Tan Feng, then Zeng Xianyi can be sure that in Yuyang County, I am afraid that most of the army has already defected, but I have concealed the county guard and himself, and that Tan Feng is insidious, I am afraid that the layout will have begun long ago.
There are many ups and downs in his heart, but Zeng Xianyi still has the hope of what if, what if the county guard sees through the other party's conspiracy?
With gains and losses in his heart, he only felt that time was extremely difficult, Ye Zhen had left Anlu for a whole day, and there was still not the slightest news from Yuyang County. This is already extremely abnormal, if nothing happens, every three days between Yuyang County and Yuyang County, a group of messengers will come to Anlu. Ye Zhen said that he did not block the gallop, so the messenger should appear as scheduled.
On the lone lamp in front of him, Zeng Xian was like sitting on pins and needles.
"General, someone from the county has arrived." The guards who hurriedly entered the door outside the door made Zeng Xianyi jump up like an electric shock with a word, and rushed out with a step, and after stepping out with one foot, he retracted it again.
"How many people are here?"
"Seven or eight people."
"Do you recognize?"
"I recognize it, but it's not the former lieutenant Zhong Kuozhong, but the people in the Jiang County guard camp, I have seen it a few times when I was in the county town before, and it is a bit of a reflection." Guards said.
Zeng Xianyi took a deep breath, lowered his voice, and said a few words to the guard, whose eyes widened in surprise and looked at Zeng Xianyi in bewilderment.
"Go, do as I say, these people, I'm afraid that they have betrayed the county guard." Zeng Xian held the waist knife in one hand, and a trace of murderous aura flashed in his eyes.
"Got it!" The guards shuddered, ran out quickly, and made arrangements according to Zeng Xianyi's request. Zeng Xianyi was fixed and strode towards the outer hall.
"Han Ding, the captain of the subordinate guard battalion, has seen General Zeng!" In the hall, a lieutenant saw Zeng Xianyi walk in, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute Zeng Xianyi.
"Well, why are you here, wasn't Zhong Kuo in charge of the contact with this place before?" Zeng Xian nodded, walked to the main seat in the middle and sat down, and stretched out his hand, "What about the letter of the county guard?" β
Han Ding smiled and took out a fire-lacquered sealed envelope from his arms, and presented it to Zeng Xianyi with both hands, "It was supposed to be Captain Zhong who came, but unfortunately in the past two days, Captain Zhong didn't know what he had eaten wrong, and he had diarrhea and diarrhea, and everyone was out of shape, where could he still ride a horse out of the door, so the county guard asked me to come and run this trip." β
"Really?" Zeng Xian tore off the fire paint without smiling, and asked seemingly casually, "Is there anything going on in the county during this time?" β
"No, it's just that I heard that Tan Feng suddenly appeared in Jiuyuan County, and the imperial army's troops stationed in Jiuyuan also moved, and it seems that it has bad intentions when I hear the county guard." Han Dingdao.
"That's true!" Zeng Xianyi sighed and said, "The county guard wants me to lead the army back?" β
Seeing that Zeng Xianyi didn't read the letter, but looked at himself, Han Dingleng and said: "My subordinates have heard General Kou say it, and the county guard seems to want General Zeng to go to the direction of Jiuyuan to prevent Tan Feng's possible attack. β
"What is this?" Zeng Xianyi sneered: "It seems that you know a lot?" β
Han Ding's face changed slightly, "Yes, General Kou has always trusted Zaixia, so his subordinates are also involved in those things discussed with Zhao Guo. β
"I see!" Zeng Xianyi laughed, slapped his face, and made a loud noise, and from outside the door, dozens of heavily armed soldiers immediately poured in.
"Take this man down for me!" Zeng Xianyi shouted.
Han Ding was shocked, but he didn't tie his hands and grabbed it, his body shrugged, and he used force under his feet, but he rushed towards Zeng Xianyi, took a step out of his foot, and the steel knife in his waist had already appeared in his hand, and he stabbed at Zeng Xian with a straight knife.
"Rat dares!" Zeng Xian shouted angrily, turned sideways, pulled out the knife, and with a bang, the waist knife in Han Ding's hand was already broken into two, and then flew up with a kick, hitting Han Ding's chest and abdomen, falling out flat, and falling heavily to the ground. The guards swarmed up and pinned him firmly to the ground, and in the blink of an eye, he was tied up.
Pressed to his knees, a guard grabbed Han Ding's hair and pulled his head up to face Zeng Xianyi.
In the corners of Han Ding's mouth, blood flowed out, looking at Zeng Xianyi, but he was smiling: "It turns out that General Zeng has already taken precautions. (To be continued......)
