199. Missed General
Ma Jun did what he said. After the call with Miao Jia ended, he led his troops back to the north and south cities overnight.
On the morning of the second day, Ma Jun led the team back to the north and south city gates.
The news that Ma Jun led his troops back to the North and South Cities should have returned to the North and South Cities last night.
When the soldiers and horses arrived on the outskirts of the city, Shan Liang was already standing on the city wall.
"Ma Jun! You're eating inside and out. Shan Liang's haggard face, with all his strength, shouted to Ma Jun outside the city gate, "I have relieved you of the position of head of the army. If you bring your troops back to the north and south cities, you will rebel; This is infidelity. Your families are all in the city, and they have come back to cut down your fellow citizens, in spite of their comfort. This is unfilial piety. Your friends are still in the north and south of the city, but you have set your guns on the city; This is unrighteousness. ”
"Shan Liang! You villain. Ma Jun laughed and said, "You deserve to say these things too?" I, Ma Jun, want to set foot on the city you guard, do I still need to talk to you here? I don't want to ruin my life, that's why I'm here. Otherwise, your head would have hung at the gates. ”
Shan Liang listened to Ma Jun's sonorous words, and cold sweat oozed from his back. He was well aware of Ma Jun's ability to lead troops to fight, and it was too easy for him to set foot in the north and south cities.
"Ma Jun! You don't come to this set. Shan Liang said, "It makes me anxious, and everyone is uncomfortable." Your family, and the families of the soldiers behind you, I will not be soft. ”
"Coward! This is what you do as a child. Ma Jun scolded angrily, "I came back here with my troops today, not to kill you." If I want to kill you, it's easy to do it. I came back to take the bones of the white and red and the families of the soldiers behind me. ”
Hearing this, Shan Liang's beating heart was much calmer. As long as he didn't come back to fight North and South City, he felt that everything was negotiable.
"For the sake of your many years of service to the North and South Cities." Shan Liang's tone softened a little, "I will send your family members out of the city, as well as their corpses in white and red." From now on, you and I owe each other. I'm not going to provoke you, and you don't come back to the north and south cities to disturb you. ”
The new chief standing next to Shan Liang, listening to Shan Liang's spineless words, has more fires in his heart, this mayor is really greedy for life and afraid of death, and it is not this kind of softness to be soft. What he said was a bit like a bastard in the family, and the old father lost his temper.
"Well said." Ma Jun said, "Within an hour, the soldiers' families and Bai Hong's corpses were delivered to me. I don't embarrass the folks and elders in the north and south cities. ”
"Ma Jun! Hugh was rampant. The new chief beside Shan Liang said, "What ...... you of you who have forgotten your lord and turned your back on your loyalty?"
"Don't talk too much." Shan Liang saw the anger on Ma Jun's face outside the city gate, and stopped the newly appointed chief, "This is a matter between me and him, you do your job." Don't meddle in this matter. ”
Shan Liang was really worried that Ma Jun would be angry and lead his troops into the city.
Shan Liang knew very well in his heart that he could not resist Ma Jun's attack. In addition, he understands that he killed Bai Hong, and some citizens and soldiers have great prejudices.
At this moment, Shan Liang is begging his father to tell his grandmother, don't make any more extraneous branches, Ma Jun, who advocates an alliance, can get out of the way as soon as possible.
"Mayor!" The new head of the person looked indignant, "How can this be? He is a person from the North and South Cities, and the rest of the people in the North and South Cities who clearly deceive us are all white~ idiots. ”
"Shut up!" Shan Liang was furious, "What do you know? Do your job. ”
"Yes!" The new incumbent bowed his head and admitted his mistake.
Shan Liang looked at him, got angry in his heart, pointed his fingers, and told him to get out.
"How?" Ma Jun's anger has been there, "I'm impatient, otherwise, my knife will definitely cut at you." ”
"Within an hour, your family members and the white and red corpses will be delivered to you." Shan Liang said, "In the future, don't go back to the North and South Cities, you will no longer be welcome here." ”
"Don't talk nonsense." Ma Jun said, "I'm waiting for you to send people here." ”
Shan Liang immediately arranged for people to organize.
Everyone outside the city gate looked at Shan Liang and did it, and they felt very uncomfortable, this is the demeanor of a mayor? The people they have dedicated their blood and sweat for many years are such cowardly people. As soon as the chief spoke, he confessed. At the same time, they were also glad in their hearts that the chief Ma Jun did not command them to enter the city, after all, the city was their own villagers, how could they do it?
Ma Jun glanced back at the soldiers behind him and said loudly: "I, Ma Jun, am a man who stands up to the sky and the earth, and if I don't fight the city, I won't fight." Now, I want to ask you one last word, is there anyone who doesn't want to go with me? This is the last chance, and for those who don't want to go with me, I'm not reluctant. You have the right to stay. You don't have to worry, stay if you want to, Shan Liang won't do anything to you? Ma Jun turned around and shouted to Shan Liang on the city wall, "I dare to guarantee that if you dare to touch the soldiers left behind, I will definitely bring the soldiers back to sweep the north and south cities." I am sure that you can guarantee the safety of the soldier who remained and his family. ”
"Don't worry." Shan Liang said, "They are also my subordinates, but you lead the troops, so you have to do this." I am not to blame the soldiers who are willing to stay. The actions of the soldiers have nothing to do with you, and your actions do not affect them. ”
"Did you hear what the mayor said?" Ma Jun said to the crowd, "Don't worry about your comfort and the lives of your family. If you don't want to come with me, please stand up. After that, you don't have a chance. ”
The soldier bowed his head and discussed whether to stay, or follow Ma Jun.
Half an hour later, the people who had been left behind came out.
"Good! I promise that Shan Liang will not touch the lives of more than 10,000 of you," Ma Jun said, "I have written down your list, and if any of you are murdered or killed by Shan Liang, I will definitely seek justice for you." ”
"Chief!" The more than 10,000 soldiers left behind said, "It's not that we don't want to go with you, but we really can't leave." There are seventy or eighty-year-old people in the family. However, most of us will not be in the army anymore, and we will apply for discharge. ”
"No matter what you do, if someone dares to harm you in the North and South Cities, it will be against my Ma Jun brothers." Ma Jun said indignantly, "They just can't get along with me." ”
"Thank you, Chief." Ten thousand soldiers said, "We appreciate your care. ”
"You are my brother Ma Jun, my brother for life. Whoever dares to bully my brother is to underestimate me Ma Jun. Ma Jun said, "You don't want to stay in the north and south cities, come to the white market to find me in the future." ”
"Thank you, Chief!"
Among them, some people knew that although Shan Liang promised so, Ma Jun's bold words were very good, but there were too many unexpected things. However, I had to stay, the old people at home were there, and the children couldn't go away.
At this time, the family members who were going to leave had already left the city one after another.
"Ma Jun!" Shan Liang shouted, "I hope you don't go back on your word, don't break your word." You and I work together, I don't embarrass me, and you don't come back to embarrass me. ”
Ma Jun listened to Shan Liang's words, and felt a little funny in his heart, you killed Bai Hong, can the people in Bai Shi let you go?
"I don't control other people's heads." Ma Jun said, "However, I said that the knives of my Ma Jun and my brothers will never cut into the bodies of my fathers and elders in the north and south cities and villages." Of course, the premise is that the brother I left behind cannot die unexpectedly. You get the idea. ”
"The soldiers who stayed behind are also my brothers." Shan Liang said, "How can I care about this incident that my brother is following you? ”
"Good!" Ma Jun said, "There will be a period later." ”
But not to mention that Ma Jun led the soldiers and their families to set off in the direction of Baishi. said that after Shan Liangmu sent Ma Jun away, he immediately returned to the city government.
Summoned people and horses, and held a meeting on suing for peace with the southern city.
"My previous decision-making mistakes led to a lot of deaths for our soldiers in Nandong City, but these are all in the past." Shan Liang said, "Now we have killed Bai Hong, this is a fait accompli. With this thing alone, the South-Eastern Army would not have besieged it. As the first to strike, we must take responsibility, and for the safety of the people of the whole city, I feel that we should make peace with the Nandong Army. What do you guys think? ”
"Mayor!" The person from the Foreign Affairs Bureau said, "I'm afraid it's difficult, the South Eastern Army has already withdrawn from the White Market." Although our northern and southern armies did not break through Nandong City, we did lead our troops to fight. When they lose, they must find someone to vent to. We are the ones who hit the muzzle of the gun. ”
"Mayor! You shouldn't rent Ma Jun, as soon as he leaves, we have a lot less soldiers. "There aren't many of them, but they're all people who can fight." It is a big loss for our north and south cities. ”
"It's not helpful to talk about it now." The director of the investigation bureau said, "Bai Hong is dead, and this is our biggest bargaining chip in negotiations with the South Eastern Army." Bai Hong's person has a lot of influence, and now that he is dead, after Bai Shi knows the news, the citizens will definitely be sad. The leaders have fallen, and the White Market must have fallen into civil strife. The South-Eastern Army suffered another defeat. He definitely couldn't swallow this breath, and after learning that Bai Hong was dead, they must have taken action. ”
"We've come to this point, and negotiation is the best way to go." The director of the Organization Department ~ said, "We must finish it as soon as possible, and if it drags on, it will inevitably affect the development of our north and south cities." ”
Everyone expressed their opinions and discussed for nearly five or six hours, reaching an armistice with Nandongcheng and peaceful coexistence.
"I've already arranged for someone to contact the mayor of Nandong City." Ma Jun said, "Now you can video link and have a preliminary conversation. ”
After Ma Jun finished speaking, the staff made a video connection.
Fifteen minutes later, Feng Ming's shadow appeared in the venue.
"Mayor Feng Ming! Hello! ”
"Mayor Shan Liang! Hello! ”
"I'm sorry you didn't take the White Market."
"Huh! You didn't take my Nandong City either. Feng Ming's tired face smiled, "However, since everyone has nothing to lose, it should be regarded as a military competition, comparing everyone's strength." ”
"Haha! Mayor Feng Ming! My military strength is slightly weaker. "Shan Liang~ I know that there is a play," everyone had a military match with real guns and ammunition, and I think both sides quit their troops and went home to recuperate. ”
"That's what I mean." Feng Ming said, "Thank you for your hard work, in the future, our two cities can jointly hold military competitions." ”
"That's for sure...... I must ......," Shan Liang said, "I helped you relieve the great trouble in your heart." Joint military exercises are available at any time. ”
"Oh?" Feng Ming said, "When did it happen? ”
"Look at a video."
Shan Liang instructed the staff to play a video of the shooting of thirteen people.
"Huh! Thank you for your help. Feng Ming smiled happily, "It seems that we have the basis for cooperation." I'm waiting for your team to come to my South East City. ”
"Definitely."
