Chapter 952 [Competition]
After Song Xian heard this, he was also shocked, and hurriedly said to Hou Cheng: "This joke can't be made!" ”
"Tie him up for me, I'll go see the general!" Hou Cheng pointed at the scout and said loudly to his subordinates.
The scout froze for a moment, but before he could react, he was immediately thrown off the horse by Hou Cheng's subordinates, and several people quickly subdued the scout, tied him with a lasso, and even stuffed something in his mouth.
Hou Cheng hurriedly said to Song Xian: "Follow me to see the general, this matter is a big deal." ”
Song Xian knew that Hou Cheng was a shrewd person, so he didn't ask too much, so he followed Hou Cheng to see Tai Shici. Since the two of them surrendered in Bingzhou, they have been serving as generals under Tai Shi Ci's subordinates, and the two of them are very good at observing words and feelings, so Tai Shi Ci also likes the two of them very much, and promoted the two of them to be his lieutenants.
Tai Shici was inspecting the camp that had just been created at this time, and suddenly saw Hou Cheng and Song Xian coming, so he asked, "Are you done patrolling?" Did you notice anything out of the ordinary? ”
Hou Cheng was about to take the good news from the scout, and said: "General, this is what my subordinate seized from a spy, and it is a good news written to His Majesty, and my subordinates feel that there are some clues in the good news......
"What's the clue?" Tai Shi Ci took the good news, glanced at it hurriedly, and asked.
"General, please look at the last paragraph, if it is really Ma Chao's meaning, I am afraid there are signs of rebellion!" Hou Cheng prompted.
Tai Shi Ci took a closer look, and did feel a little suspicious, it stands to reason that Ma Chao defeated the 300,000 people of Xian Lingqiang with thousands of cavalry, and fought such a big victory, he should show off on the good news. But Ma Chao didn't do this, which was unusual. Instead, he prevented Lin Nan from leading the army forward, and Ma Chao did such a distinct thing not long after he returned to Lin Nan, which really had to make people suspect that Ma Chao had signs of rebellion.
He pondered carefully, closed the good news, and immediately asked, "How far is it to go to Lingwu Valley?" ”
"Less than a hundred miles." Song Xian replied.
"Excellent! Hou Cheng, Song Xian. You quickly gather the whole army, go on the road with me, travel lightly, and the whole army rush to Lingwu Valley, and send someone to send the scout and this good news to the back, meet the emperor, show the truth of the matter, and I will take you to quell the rebellion! Tai Shici's heart was full of blood, and there was no room for half a grain of sand in his eyes.
Think back to the beginning. After Tai Shi Ci learned that Ma Chao returned to Lin Nan, he has always insisted on killing Ma Chao to prevent future troubles, although only a few people know about this matter, but for Tai Shi Ci, this matter is also a pain in his heart, so when he heard Ma Chao's name. There is some disgust. In addition, on the issue of equality before zero Qiang recently, Tai Shici has appeared to the Privy Council many times. asked to lead troops to pacify, but they were all refused, but this burden fell on Ma Chao's body, which really made him chagrined.
Tai Shi Ci gathered 2,500 cavalry, leaving 500 to be responsible for building the camp, carrying only weapons, armor and other things necessary for battle. Riding on the war horse, he headed towards Lingwu Valley.
When Lin Nan's army just came out of the desert, he met the person sent by Tai Shici to escort the spies, and immediately asked the reason for it, and read the good news. Knowing that Tai Shi Ci was leading the army towards Lingwu Valley, he was immediately furious and scolded: "What does Tai Shi Ci want to do? How dare you disobey my orders? The order went down, and the whole army accelerated forward, aiming for Lingwu Valley! ”
After the order was delivered, Lin Nan rode a fast horse, took Zhu Gongdao, Zhu Fairness and five hundred relatives to gallop forward, and handed over more than 20,000 troops to Jia Xu's command, he wanted to stop Tai Shici and Ma Chao before they caused a catastrophe.
Tai Shi Ci took Hou Cheng and Song Xian all the way to run wildly, and after two and a half hours, they arrived at Lingwu Valley.
After arriving at Lingwu Valley, Tai Shi Ci didn't say a word, and immediately rushed to Lingwu Valley.
When the soldiers guarding Lingwu Valley saw their own military horses coming, they naturally wouldn't stop them, not to mention that the leader was Tai Shici, one of the five tiger generals, and he didn't even ask, so he was directly let into the valley.
"Where is Ma Chao?" Tai Shi Ci rushed into the valley and opened his mouth to ask.
"Inside the largest cave in the middle." The soldier replied.
Tai Shici's face was gloomy, and he immediately rode his horse, and when he arrived at the door of the cave, he reined in the horse and shouted: "Ma Chaoxiaoer, you come out for me!" ”
Ma Chao was resting in the cave, when he suddenly heard a shout outside, and there was an echo in the cave, which kept echoing in his ears, like a swarm of flies that couldn't be driven away, and directly woke him up.
"Who is so bold as to shout outside and call me by my name?" Ma Chao rolled up from the bed, with an impatient face, in the past two days, in order to appease the Qiang people, he really worked hard, the Qiang people live in the inner side of the valley, and the soldiers he brought live on the outside, and the front and rear intersections are guarded, and a checkpoint is formed invisibly.
Wang Shuang hurried from outside, looking panicked.
After Ma Chao saw it, he asked, "What are you panicking about?" What's going on out there? Who is so daring? Lock him up for three days! ”
Wang Shuang said with an embarrassed face: "General, it's Tiger Wing General Tai Shici who has arrived, and he is shouting outside, I don't know what the so-called thing is?" ”
"Tai Shi Ci? What did he come to do? Ma Chaohu asked suspiciously.
After getting dressed, Ma Chao walked out of the cave with all his might, and when he saw Tai Shici's evil face, and Sensen's murderous intent appeared in his eyes, he sneered, took two steps forward, arched his hand slightly, and said: "It turned out that the Tiger Wing General had arrived, and Ma Mou had missed the distance, and I hope the general will forgive me." I don't know if the general has a noble cadre here? ”
Tai Shici pushed the Beacon Flame Hook Heavenly Halberd in his hand forward, and the sharp blade of the halberd head fell directly in front of Ma Chao's eyes, and asked, "Are you guilty?" ”
Seeing the cold light flashing, Ma Chao's brows furrowed slightly, but his face did not change, and immediately stopped Wang Shuang behind him, and asked rhetorically: "General, what am I guilty of?" ”
"You ......" Tai Shici really couldn't find out what Ma Chao had committed in any crime, just because of a text in the good news, he assumed that Ma Chao wanted to rebel, but now, he entered Lingwu Valley without much effort, and Ma Chao was neither humble nor arrogant, but made him fall into passivity.
"General! The medicine can be taken indiscriminately. Don't talk nonsense! Ma Mou just won more with less, pacified Xian Lingqiang with 6,500 cavalry, and included the Lingwu Valley area into the territory of Huaxia Kingdom. Ma Chao said in a humble and arrogant manner.
"Phew!"
Tai Shi Ci has always been stupid. The deputy general Hou Cheng saw that Tai Shici was short of words for a while, so he shouted, rode out, pointed at Ma Chao and said, "This is your attitude from above?" How can you be so rude to a general? Don't forget jì, this is the country of Huaxia, not the state of Qin that has been destroyed! You are a prince of a dead country, you can be so loved by His Majesty, why are you not satisfied, and dare to contradict the general? You ......"
didn't wait for Hou Cheng to finish speaking. Wang Shuang, who was behind Ma Chao, suddenly rushed out, and a "tiger jumping stream" rushed towards Hou Cheng.
Hou Cheng was taken aback, and before he could react, the whole person was thrown off the horse by Wang Shuang, the two hugged each other, and after rolling far on the ground, Wang Shuang suppressed Hou Cheng with brute force and rode on Hou Cheng's body. raised his right hand and smashed his fist the size of a bowl into Hou Cheng's face.
smashed down with a punch, and Hou Chengdeng's mouth was full of blood. One of his front teeth was also knocked out alive, and he screamed in pain!
"Wu that thief, let go of Hou Cheng!" Seeing this, Song Xian raised his spear and stabbed at Wang Shuang, and a spear hung behind Wang Shuang. And shouted loudly, "Let him go, or don't blame me for being rude!" ”
Wang Shuang didn't stop, he just raised his fist and hit Hou Cheng three times in a row. The bridge of Hou Cheng's nose was also broken, and Hou Cheng, who was in pain, kept screaming.
Song Xian saw that Wang Shuang didn't listen to him, raised the spear in his hand, and directly stabbed into Wang Shuang's shoulder blade, and the head of the spear penetrated into Wang Shuang's body, and blood flowed immediately. But Wang Shuang didn't seem to feel anything at all, and kept waving his fists.
Seeing that Hou Cheng was beaten by Wang Shuang's bird-like appearance, Song Xian's heart was horizontal, he pulled out his spear, aimed it at Wang Shuanghou's heart, and stabbed it fiercely with one shot.
At this moment, Wang Shuang suddenly turned around, and the spear in Song Xian's hand passed through his side, piercing his clothes and revealing strong muscles. At the same time, he wrapped his hands around Song Xian's spear, and with a strong pull, he overturned Song Xian off the horse.
Song Xian fell heavily to the ground, and his arm was also dislocated, grinning in pain.
Tai Shici saw that Hou Cheng and Song Xian were easily thrown to the ground by Wang Shuang, and couldn't help scolding: "Waste! ”
Ma Chao's eyes were always staring at Tai Shici, and when he saw that Wang Shuang knocked that despicable villain to the ground, he didn't even ask, sneered, and said: "I'm sorry, the general raised a dog to bite people indiscriminately, I can only let my subordinates come to beat the dog, otherwise the dog barks wildly there, and it really disturbs people's peace!" ”
Tai Shici glared at Ma Chao angrily, and immediately put the halberd on Ma Chao's neck, and roared loudly: "You deliberately rebelled, I arrested you, what else do you have to say now?" ”
"I have nothing to say!" Ma Chao didn't mean to be afraid at all, and shouted loudly.
"Excellent! Now, please come back with me to see the emperor......"
"Hahaha......" Ma Chao suddenly laughed and interrupted Tai Shici's words.
"What are you laughing at?" Tai Shici saw Ma Chao suddenly laughing, so he asked.
"Do you really think I'm a thief? Why do you say that I am a thief? Ma Chao retorted, "My dignified general Zhengxi was personally sealed by the emperor, although the grade was one level lower than you, but you are absolutely not allowed to insult me like this!" If you don't make a point today, don't even think about getting out of Lingwu Valley! ”
As soon as the voice fell, a group of wolf cavalry rushed in from both ends of the valley, blocking all the soldiers brought by Tai Shici.
Seeing this, Tai Shi Ci understood why he entered Lingwu Valley so easily, daring to love was that Ma Chao had prepared and set himself a trap.
Just when everyone was eyeing him, Ma Chao suddenly shook his body and jumped backwards directly out of the attack range of Tai Shi Ci's euphorbia.
Tai Shi Ci lost his control over Ma Chao, was shocked, and hurriedly shouted: "Ma Chao is a thief!" The emperor treats you well, why do you rebel against Your Majesty? ”
Ma Chaoli ignored it, turned to the person behind him and said, "Take me and get a gun!" ”
Turning his head and glancing at Tai Shici, he asked, "Since you are a thief and really treat me as a thief, then don't blame me for being rude!" Today's events are all because of you and me, and have nothing to do with everyone, you and I are alone. Set up a life and death situation, you insulted me, don't kill you, heaven will not tolerate it! ”
After hearing this, Tai Shici sneered, and he was in Ma Chao's mouth. It's as if he's become a mortal person. When he saw that Ma Chao was young, he immediately smiled and said: "Little doll, don't talk wildly there, when Lao Tzu kills people, you are still wearing open crotch pants!" ”
His words are indeed true, Tai Shi Ci is ten years older than Ma, Tai Shi Ci followed a famous teacher to learn martial arts in his early years, and his subordinates killed a bully by mistake, that year. He was just fifteen years old, and Ma Chao was only five years old, and it was when he was wearing open crotch pants.
After hearing this, Ma Chao sneered: "Rely on the old and sell the old, don't talk nonsense, let's see the real trick under our hands." If you kill me, and you take my head back, it can be said that I have rebelled and you have killed me. But. That's absolutely impossible. When I kill you, I will say that you are deliberately plotting rebellion. You, the Five Tiger Generals, have been sitting in the position for long enough, and it's long overdue for a change. ”
"If you speak wildly, if you have the ability, you can use it, horse fighting, foot fighting, all kinds of weapons can be compared! I'm too Shi Ci to accompany me to the end! Anti-thief! ”
Ma Chao heard that Tai Shici kept calling it a thief, and he was very unhappy. At this time, his subordinates just took Ma Chao's Earth Fire Xuanlu Spear, and as soon as Ma Chao took the Earth Fire Xuanlu Gun, he asked people to bring the horses, jumped on the back of the horse, and looked around the valley. shouted: "This place is too small to be used, let's go outside for a decisive battle!" ”
Tai Shi Ci readily agreed, and when he saw Ma Chao riding away, he followed closely and rushed out of the crowd.
At this time, Wang Shuang and many onlookers followed out, preparing to meet the battle.
Hou Cheng was beaten half to death by Wang Shuang, his face was deformed, and Song Xian's arm was also dislocated, and the two of them were the worst. Song Xian supported Hou Cheng, and when he saw everyone leaving, Hou Cheng said to Song Xian: "Brother, get out of the valley quickly and call for reinforcements, otherwise our little people will not be enough for people to cut down, in case there is any danger to the general, we can't afford it!" ”
Song Xian said: "I'm leaving, what should you do?" ”
"Can't die! You and I have always regarded ourselves as villains, and when we followed Lu Bu, we never really contributed to it, but since following the general, the general has been very kind to you and me, and promoted us to be his deputy general, this kindness cannot be repaid. If Ma Chao is really reversed today, the general is the first person she wants to kill, Ma Chao is brave, there are many subordinates, I am worried that the general is not an opponent...... Go quickly, leave me alone, I am the evidence of Ma Chao's rebellion! ”
After Song Xian heard this, he was ruthless, so he left Hou Cheng alone, turned over his horse, and galloped out of the valley.
Outside the Lingwu Valley, Ma Chao and Tai Shi Ci stood on both sides respectively, and the wolf cavalry had been unclear, but they knew that someone was making trouble in the valley, thinking that it was the Qiang people, so they came to the rescue, who knew that after arriving, they saw that it was Tai Shi Ci's soldiers and horses, so they did not move. At this time, the wolf cavalry stood aside and watched, and Tai Shici's subordinates thought that the wolf cavalry was following Ma Chao to make trouble, so they stood opposite the wolf cavalry, and only Wang Shuang rode a horse and ran behind Ma Chao, and the wound on his back had been bandaged, temporarily stopping the flow of blood.
Ma Chao glanced around, and thought to himself: "Fortunately, I have foresight, the wolf cavalry can't be with me, if I really make a move, I'm afraid that the wolf cavalry will eat me back." It seems that I must form a pro-army of my own in Lingwu Valley, and only in this way can I gain a firm foothold in Huaxia Kingdom. Tiger Wing General...... You will become the first stepping stone for my Ma Chao to gain a foothold in Huaxia Kingdom! ”
Tai Shi Ci shook his spirits and asked Ma Chao, "Do you want to fight?" What are you grinding there for? Simply point? ”
"Life and death are not established, how can you start fighting? If I kill you by mistake, I'll be mistaken for a thief! First write down the life and death status of each other, and then start fighting! ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and dipped the blood on Wang Shuang's body, tore off a corner of his clothes, and began to write the life and death situation.
Seeing this, Tai Shici turned his head and looked around, there was no one around, so he immediately tore off the corner of his clothes, stretched his finger into his mouth, and was about to bite his finger to write a blood book.
"General!" Hou Cheng stumbled out of the crowd and said, "With the blood of his subordinates!" ”
Tai Shici's heart suddenly felt a burst of warmth, and with Hou Cheng's blood, he wrote down the life and death situation, then embellished his name, pressed the handprint, and handed it to Hou Cheng, asking Hou Cheng to send it to the other side, but he sighed in his heart: "Hou Cheng is really loyal to me......"
Over there, Ma Chao also wrote the life and death certificate, also embellished his name, pressed the handprint, and then handed it to Wang Shuang, asking Wang Shuang to hand over the life and death certificate to the other side.
Wang Shuang turned over and dismounted, and walked towards Tai Shici with the life and death certificate. Seeing Hou Cheng walking towards him with an angry face, he also had a look of disdain in his eyes.
Hou Cheng came to walk and stumbled, since he saw Wang Shuang, he was angry, there is a way that the enemy is very red when he meets, Hou Cheng gritted his back molars. There was a gurgling grinding sound in his mouth, and he wanted to bite Wang Shuang to death at this time.
The two of them walked to the middle, and after exchanging life and death with each other, Wang Shuang turned around and left.
"The big guy up ahead!"
Wang Shuang's figure was tall, a whole head taller than Hou Cheng, and when he heard Hou Cheng shouting from behind, he turned his face and asked, "What are you doing?" ”
It didn't matter if he turned his face, he saw a fist swinging towards him, and he was defenseless. It hit him in the nose, and after being hit hard, his nose couldn't bear the pressure, and the blood flowed from the ground.
After Hou Cheng finished punching, he hurriedly jumped away and ran away quickly towards Tai Shici's side.
Although Wang Shuang was angry, he didn't chase after him and wiped his nosebleed. turned his head and returned to Ma Chao's side.
Ma Chao saw Hou Cheng's kind of deed, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" “
Wang Shuang shook his head. said: "Swords, guns, swords, halberds, thousands of troops and horses have never killed the last general, just one punch, can you still kill the last general?" It's okay, I've got a lot of blood! It's just that I was defenseless and was attacked by him, this damn villain. I knew about it and killed him! ”
Ma Chao said: "You did the right thing just now, if you really kill him, we will be really in trouble." Anyway, that guy also has a military rank of the third grade, and you are only from the seventh rank now. Beating Shangguan is already a big crime. ”
"The last general is not afraid, whoever insults the general is insulting the last general, and the last general will kill him sooner or later."
Ma Chao felt a burst of relief, thinking to himself that the four generals he had personally trained in the past, Qian Hu died in battle, Zhang Xiu and Suo Xu surrendered to Cao Cao, and now only Wang Shuang was left to follow him. remembered that when I first met Wang Shuang, this guy dared to compete with him for prey, and openly contradicted himself, so that he was abandoned by him, and he didn't let him follow him until later. Unexpectedly, it was him, but he was the most loyal to himself.
He took the life and death certificate written by Tai Shici, and after reading it, it was almost the same as what he wrote, so he pressed his handprint, handed it to Wang Shuang, and said: "Keep it well, even if you kill him now, there will be no trouble!" ”
"No!"
Hou Cheng quickly ran to Tai Shici's side, handed over the life and death statement written by Ma Chao to Tai Shici, and said with a smile: "General, I gave the general a long face just now, and I punched the guy who was hit by a thousand knives!" ”
Tai Shi Ci smiled, nodded, and after reading the life and death situation, he stamped his own handprint, and gave the life and death certificate to Hou Cheng, and said: "You go to the side and watch, there are no eyes for a while, I am afraid of hurting the innocent, and now kill Ma Chao, just carry his head to see the emperor." ”
"General, Ma Chao is brave and invincible, comparable to Lu Bu back then, you need to be careful." Hou Cheng reminded.
"Don't worry, I have my own measure, and I won't underestimate the enemy!" Tai Shi Ci has been in battle for a long time, and has been honed on the battlefield, no matter who the opponent is, the starting move is a killer move, just for a quick victory.
Wang Shuang and Hou Cheng retreated to both sides, Ma Chao and Tai Shici marched forward together, facing each other, and the battle of life and death between the two immediately began!
"Zheng! Zheng! Zheng ......"
The sound of the collision of weapons continued to sound, and as soon as the two people met each other, they immediately started to do their best, and as soon as they made a move, they tried to knock each other down in the shortest possible time. Wind and Fire Hook Heavenly Halberd, Earth Fire Xuanlu Gun, the two weapons collided and rubbed out many sparks, the halberd swirled, the gun shadow was heavy, and the murderous aura around the two people was rampant.
The two of them had only been fighting for three rounds, and they saw a horse galloping down quickly, shouting, "Stop it!" ”
Ma Chao and Tai Shici turned their heads and glanced at it, and when they saw that the person who came was Lin Nan, they were all shocked.
"Your Majesty! Ma Chao deliberately rebelled, and the minister was arresting the thief! Saying that, the Wind and Fire Hook Heavenly Halberd in Tai Shi Ci's hand not only did not weaken the offensive, but became more powerful.
"You're a thief! Don't spew blood! Ma Chao also took the lead, and the Earth Fire Xuanlu Spear also attacked quickly, and with a blow as fast as lightning, it stabbed towards Tai Shici's face.
Tai Shi Ci hurriedly dodged, the halberd swirled, and the sharp blade of the halberd's head hooked Ma Chao's arms.
Ma Chao returned his gun to cover it, and stabbed it again, avoiding Tai Shici, and the two of them separated slightly, and after turning the horse's head, they fought together again.
Lin Nan saw that Ma Chao and Tai Shici were inseparable. didn't listen to his advice, and immediately raised the dragon spear that he hadn't used for a long time, and rushed towards the two people.
At this time, Zhu Gongdao and Zhu Fair came with more than 500 gallops, and when they saw Lin Nan rushing towards Ma Chao and Tai Shici, they also rushed over quickly.
Lin Nan has been reunited with Zhu Gongdao since then. The moves that I couldn't figure out before, after some guidance from Zhu Gongdao, fused the swordsmanship into marksmanship, and finally practiced the last three moves of the dragon marksmanship.
Tai Shici and Ma Chao are both on the rise, with high morale, although there are only a few rounds, they fight heartily. It's hard to solve, and for a while I left all the qiē behind.
Lin Nan suddenly killed and shouted, the most powerful move of the dragon spear, "Dragon Shock Nine Heavens", was suddenly used, but seeing that the spear in his hand was vivid, it shook unusually fast, and it came out directly, under the illumination of the rising sun. Dressed in a golden coat, it resembles a giant dragon soaring into the sky. Long roared for nine days, shocking a hundred miles.
The Wind and Fire Hook Heavenly Halberd and the Earth Fire Xuanlu Spear were fighting, and suddenly the Dragon Lance came from the side, and under the extremely powerful and huge force, they directly picked off the two weapons, and all three weapons flew to the other side. Fell to the ground.
At the same time, Lin Nan rode a horse and suddenly collided, and the whole person suddenly reclined on the horse's back, using the saddle as a support point for his waist, and stretched his hands forward hard. Pushed away the head of the war horse under Ma Chao's seat, kicked the head of the war horse under Tai Shici's seat, and then slapped it on the saddle with one hand, the whole person broke away from the saddle, rose up in the air, and the body began to rotate continuously, both hands kept patting the head of the war horse, and both hands continued to kick and kick, Ma Chao and Tai Shici's war horses were all frightened, and they galloped out in different directions with two people respectively, directly separating the two people.
"Boom!"
Lin Nan fell heavily to the ground, a burst of dust rose on the ground, he hurriedly stood up on the ground, glared at Ma Chao and Tai Shici, and saw that Zhu Gong and Zhu Ping came with five hundred guards, and immediately ordered: "Tie up both of them to me!" ”
As soon as he heard Lin Nan's order, he immediately jumped up from the horse, and landed on the back of Ma Chao and Tai Shici respectively, and the long sword shot out and put it on the neck of Ma Chao and Tai Shici, so that the galloping guards were tied up.
Lin Nan slapped the dust on his body, got back on his horse, looked around at the crowd, and shouted, "What are you looking at here?" Give me all into the valley! ”
Everyone didn't dare to disobey the emperor's order, so they immediately got out of the way and rushed towards the Lingwu Valley.
Arrived in the Lingwu Valley and entered the largest cave in it, Lin Nan sat there angrily, wishing justice and fairness standing beside him, and the guards escorted Ma Chao and Tai Shici up.
Lin Nan saw that Ma Chao and Tai Shici were both unconvinced, so he asked, "Are you two guilty?" ”
"The minister pacified Xian Lingqiang and included this place in the territory of Huaxia Kingdom, what is the crime?" Ma Chao said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"There is no sin in the ministers who came to quell the rebellion!" Tai Shici also argued.
"Bastard! Lock them both up and lock them up for seven days! Let them think about it! ”
As soon as the voice fell, the guards directly escorted Ma Chao and Tai Shici away.
"I'm! Let Song Xian, Hou Cheng, and Wang Shuang all come in, and go and find the Qiang King who is the first Lingqiang! Lin Nan was still angry, and he was angry that these two tiger generals almost made a big mistake.
After a short time, Wang Shuang, Song Xian, Hou Cheng, and Wuerde all arrived, and when they saw Lin Nan, they all knelt down together and bowed loudly: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live!" ”
"Raise your heads! Let me see! ”
Wang Shuang, Song Xian, Hou Cheng, and Wuerde all raised their heads, but except for Wang Shuang, the rest of them all had flickering eyes and didn't dare to look at Lin Nan.
"Wang Shuang, Song Xian, Hou Cheng, the three of you are also guilty of fueling the troubles, in case my two generals are harmed because of this, your sins are unforgivable!"
Hou Chengdao: "Your Majesty, it was Ma Chao who had the intention of rebelling, and the general came to quell the rebellion......"
"Rebellion? If Ma Chao really rebelled, would you still be alive now? Is it good to use your brain? This incident is all because of you, you bewitched Tai Shici, deceived the public, and almost caused a big disaster, and you should be punished for your crimes! ”
"Huh? Your Majesty, I was confused for a while, I was also thinking about the emperor, Ma Chao wrote in the good news that he would not let the emperor bring the army over, and he was the prince of the dead country, and he was newly attached. The last general guessed ......"
"Guess? Speculation, before the conclusion is reached, openly bewitching the hearts of the army is also a capital crime! ”
"The emperor spares his life, the last general ......"
"It's fair to remember that you haven't committed any crimes in the past. In addition, it is also out of the maintenance of our army, capital crimes can be avoided, living crimes cannot be escaped, officers and generals are third-level, and they are still serving in the army of General Tiger Wing to show punishment! ”
"Thank you for the emperor's grace not to kill!" Hou Cheng saved his life, let out a sigh of relief, and hurriedly thanked him.
Lin Nan turned his head to look at Wang Shuang and asked, "Are you guilty?" ”
"The last general will be guilty of the following. Beat the official, the last general will be guilty, please punish your majesty! Wang Shuang immediately bowed his head and admitted his mistake, and his attitude was very sincere.
Seeing this, Lin Nan did not embarrass him, and immediately said: "In this case, cut off your current military position and continue to stay in the army to listen to it." In order to make meritorious contributions in the future! ”
"Yes!" Wang Shuang bowed and was neat. Not much to say.
"Alright, you three go down."
Lin Nanzhi Wang Shuang, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng walked straight to Ouerde, looked at it carefully, and asked, "...... you?"
"Qi Yu Xià, I am guilty! I'm guilty! Ould didn't wait for Linnan to finish. hurriedly bowed his head and confessed his guilt, which can be called a strange person.
"I haven't spoken yet!" Lin Nan sneered.
Ould said: "I have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, and I have been bewitched by traitors, and it is my fault to openly offend His Majesty, the great emperor who is invincible, unparalleled in the world, and eloquent." I swear allegiance to His Majesty the Great Emperor from now on, and I will never be an enemy of His Majesty ......the Great Emperor."
"Enough is enough, you can get up." Lin Nan saw that Ould had subverted the heroic image of the Qiang people in his mind, and immediately shook his head, with a little disdain in his eyes.
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Great Emperor!" Seeing that Linnan had not punished him, Ould stood up.
"I ask you, who persuaded you to attack my Huaxia Kingdom?"
"A Han man named Liu Ye was sent by Cao Cao. I mistakenly believed the rumor that as long as I conquered the state, he would help me dominate the grasslands. ”
"Hehe, just by virtue of you people, you also want to dominate the grassland? Are Xianbei people strong? It's not that I escaped like a dog, even if I stayed, they were all miners in my mines, and now I am hiding in Mobei and dare not come out, sooner or later I will personally lead the army to wipe them out! ”
"His Majesty the Great Emperor is mighty, His Majesty the Great Emperor is brave, Long ......live the Great Emperor, long live the Great Emperor," Ulder thought about it before he came up with this compliment.
"Okay, it's really a blessing for Xian Lingqiang to have you as the king of Qiang......" Lin Nan said rhetorically.
"No, no, no, it's still a blessing for Your Majesty." Ould said grovelingly.
Lin Nan returned to his seat and asked, "How many of you still have clansmen now?" ”
"About 260,000 people, and in the past few days, a lot of people have been killed in the battle."
"Two hundred and sixty thousand?" Lin Nan thought slowly in his mind, but said to himself: "It's almost the population of a small county......
After a while, Lin Nan turned to Ould and said, "I am going to arrange for you and your clan to be in a new place, what do you think of the county town of Northland?" ”
Ould's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly nodded and said, "Good, good." ”
Lin Nan smiled: "I also think it's good, since you also think it's good, are you willing to take all your tribe to migrate to the county town of Northland County to live?" ”
"With this good thing, why don't you want to?" Ould looked happy.
"Yes, that'll do. I want to conquer the entire Beidi County and set up Lingzhou here, a huge place, I have to leave to live, I think about it, it's better to be cheap for you, anyway, the fertilizer water doesn't flow into the fields of outsiders, right? ”
"Yes, yes, yes...... Your Majesty, we are on the same boat, with us first Lingqiang here, not only can we keep the peace of one side, but also defend against foreign enemies, Cao Cao, I have killed so many people, this account will have to be recovered sooner or later. ”
"No, I only provide you with a place to live, and if you want to send troops to fight, you have to do what I want. Of course, I will also recruit troops here, if you don't mind, you can bring all your people to join the army of my Huaxia Kingdom, there will be a salary every month, at least I can't starve you, what do you think? ”
"Okay, very good, whatever your majesty says is what you say, I'm willing to fight for your majesty here."
"Then it's nothing, you go and discuss with the clansmen of your clan first, and I will let someone inform you of the specific relocation time."
"What are you talking about? My words are commands, and they listen to me without consultation. ”
"Oh, that's okay, then you go and get ready first, it's probably in the next day or two."
"No!"
After sending Ould away, Lin Nan smiled and didn't say anything, he just likes such a person, at least he doesn't have to spend a lot of effort to do ideological work.
He took Zhu Gong Dao and Zhu Ping to the place where Ma Chao was being held, and let people open the door, and saw Ma Chao sitting there, his face was even more annoyed.
When Ma Chao saw Lin Nan coming, he pretended not to see it when he saw it, and kept looking at the ceiling.
"What's there up there that makes you look so intrigued?" Lin Nan walked up to Ma Chao's face and asked with a smile.
"It's precisely because there is nothing that the minister is guessing that there should be something on it." Ma Chao replied.
"It seems that you still have anger in your heart, anger against me, and you think that I am not rewarded for my merits, and I will not be punished for my mistakes, right?"
"I don't dare." Ma Chao lowered his head, looked at the ground, and hugged his fists.
Lin Nan said: "However, you have already done this, and the expression on your face can't deceive me." I know that for a prince who used to be high, the grievances you have suffered now with me are hidden in my heart. Actually, you hate me, don't you? ”
Ma Chao was stunned in his heart, raised his eyelids and stared at Lin Nan, he seemed to feel that he was a transparent person in front of Lin Nan, and he could let Lin Nan see a qiē in his heart.
"Hate it. Even if you vent all your hatred, I really deserve your hatred of me. ”
"I don't hate you! I hate myself! ”
"Hehe, that's right, if you could be smarter yourself, maybe you wouldn't have come to this point, willing to suffer the white eyes of others, but still reluctantly doing things under me. Meng Qi, have you ever thought that if you change your way of life, maybe your life will be more exciting? ”
"What do you mean by that?" Ma Chao heard that what Lin Nan said was a bit mysterious, so he also had a reason to listen, so he asked.
"Two months ago, you were still the crown prince of Qin, only one step away from the position of the emperor of Qin, you were still living your glory and wealth in Chang'an, holding your wife in your hands, and shouting thousands of troops and horses at any time. In those days, how carefree he was, he couldn't get used to seeing anyone, so he could kill him at will. However, now, you are under the fence, not trusted by people, and you have been left out in Jicheng for a long time, and there are people watching you when you come out and go in, and your life is extremely unfree. These two kinds of life, one in the sky and one underground, although the circumstances of life are different, you are still you, Ma Mengqi, who is known as the general of Shenwei Tian by the Qiang people. ”
After Ma Chao heard this, he saw that Lin Nan had gone around in such a big circle and never said what he wanted to say, so he asked, "I don't understand what you're saying?" ”
"Hehe, you know, better than anyone else. It's just that you don't want to recall, these things have filled your past, and in your memory, national hatred and family hatred are the first. You surrendered to me just to take revenge with the help of my strength. However, I didn't let you get what you wanted, so you regret it. This time, you wrote it clearly in the good news, and others can't see the clues, can't I see it? You don't want me to come over, you want to use the people of Xian Lingqiang to cultivate your own power, and you want to become an indispensable general in this northwest. You want to take this opportunity to let the people of the entire Huaxia Kingdom watch, the people they laughed at back then will never be able to leave you on the northwest battlefield of the Huaxia Kingdom. ”
After a pause, Lin Nan glanced at the reaction on Ma Chao's face, but saw that Ma Chao's brows were furrowed and his eyes were blurred. He continued: "Ma Mengqi, let's change the way of living. Forget your past, in my Huaxia country, you can have a new beginning. Emperor, you can't do it in your life, but you can still do the founding feats, and sometimes, a generation of famous generals may far surpass an emperor. (To be continued......)
