A group of old people came from the forbidden army and were assigned to various battalions, which soon became angry.

These people are like a provocative machine, and they don't like anything.

The key is that they have to take care of what they don't like, even beat and scold, and call the crying father and mother who clean up and down the forbidden army.

Many young generals, relying on knowing a few generals, went to complain.

Whether it was Zhang Zhengyuan or Gao Huan, they all scolded them back with a calm face, and now everyone understands that these people hate the old miscellaneous hair, which is supported by the above.

So what else can I do, grit your teeth and endure it, anyway, no matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than when it was in the previous forbidden army family.

These veterans of Xiliang are not deliberately looking for faults, they look at these forbidden troops by the standards of Xiliang soldiers, and they feel that each one is a waste.

Such soldiers, sent to the northwest battlefield, were killed by the Qiang people in one charge.

Not to mention encounters in the wild, or ambushes, they are veterans of the aftermath of the Northwest Hundred Wars, and they naturally don't like this kind of forbidden army.

Coupled with the connivance and protection of the top-level generals, they let go of their fists and feet and reinvent these forbidden troops.

The veteran who can survive to retire from the army in Xiliang doesn't know how many lives there are in his hands, and he is used to seeing life and death, and he has more aura than ordinary people when he stands there.

The days of the forbidden army are getting worse and harder....

Inside the Imperial Palace, the Spring and the Hall.

The previous apricot yellow curtain was all removed, and the hall was full of smoke and miasma, and there was a cheer.

I saw Zhao Cai, the son of heaven, looking nervous and his eyes shining.

Following his gaze, there were two fighting cocks on the ground, one of which was gold and red, and the other was black.

As soon as the chicken catcher let go, the two chickens straightened their bodies, raised their heads high, and raised their claws, chests, necks, and heads diagonally in a straight line, and then let out a shrill cry.

The black's chest muscles bulged, a thin line concave in the middle, and the feathers were messy, obviously there had been many fights before, only the black cocktail was still intact, towering proudly.

"This chicken sent by the Marquis of Xiangyang is really powerful, I took it to the Bianliang Market, and I didn't taste defeat."

The surrounding little chamberlains immediately complimented and flattered, and Zhao Cai was said to be in good spirits, more energetic than cockfighting.

It sounds easy, but when you really do it, you will find that it is not a human thing at all.

Except for a few emperors, no one has been able to hold on to it throughout the ages, because it is too draining.

Zhao Cai was diligent for a few days, and he was a little slack, at this time Miao De came on the field, he took a group of eunuchs from the inner province, changed tricks to coax him to play, and soon Zhao Cai found a new world.

It turns out that there are so many joys in life, cockfighting, dog fighting, crickets, birds, eagles, and slingshots, but they are too young to start playing with women.

"Loyal and brave Marquis has arrived!"

A sharp voice startled Zhao Cai, "Hurry, hurry, put it away." ”

A few little eunuchs were in a hurry, and the chickens and dogs in the spring and palace jumped.

After Chen Shou came in, he first smelled a strange smell, then saw a chicken feather under his feet, coughed lightly, and hugged his fists and said: "Chen Shou, see Your Majesty." ”

"The loyal and brave marquis is exempt from courtesy, come to someone, give a seat." Zhao Cai was still a little afraid of Chen Shou, afraid that Chen Shou would blame him for having fun.

Chen Shou didn't know why he thought he would take care of him, probably because the Queen Mother often asked him to listen to him.

Chen Shou said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the White Lotus Sect has been rampant in the city recently, threatening to avenge the rebel prince Zhao Zhe, but the minister is afraid that they will come back, so he wants to strengthen the forces around Kaifeng Mansion." ”

"Where do the soldiers come from?" Zhao Cai is not ignorant of the current situation, and the local heroes do not listen to the announcement.

"The Daimyo's Mansion is the closest to the Kyoto Division, so why don't you transfer troops from the Daimyo's Mansion."

"The soldiers and horses of the Daimyo's Mansion will listen to me?" Zhao Cai asked unconfidently.

Chen Shou thought to himself, you are quite self-aware, although he thought so in his heart, but Chen Shou's face was angry and painful.

"Why did Your Majesty say this, as the so-called whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister, Liang Zhongqiu is also a Qi minister, eats Qi Lu, and can resist the will of heaven. Although Your Majesty has issued an order, if this fang dares to disrespect the order, the minister will personally lead the troops and capture him for His Majesty to send down. ”

"Just according to the will of the loyal and brave marquis." Zhao Cai was a little reluctant in his heart, there were 150,000 people in the Daimyo's Mansion, in case he couldn't win...

Chen Shou just wanted to leave, when suddenly a chicken sprang out and almost flew to his head.

Zhao Cai was startled, and when he turned his head, he saw that the little eunuch had already fainted.

Chen Shou was stunned, did not look back, and reprimanded: "How can the Chunhe Palace hide chickens, don't disturb Your Majesty, otherwise you will have a few heads." ”

After finishing speaking, Chen Shou walked out of the main hall, and Zhao Cai stroked his chest.

"The Marquis of Zhongyong wants to fight the Daimyo's Mansion, but don't make trouble."

---

When Chen Shou returned to the Water Pavilion, there were already a group of officials waiting here.

Seeing him come in, everyone got up together and bowed, "Master Hou." ”

Chen Shou waved his hand, walked to the top and sat down, and his eyes swept around.

"I have asked Your Majesty for an order, this time I must get rid of Liang Zhongqiu and the 150,000 soldiers and horses of the Daimyo's Mansion."

Huang Zhen hugged his fists and said: "What the Hou Ye said is extremely true, the Daimyo's Mansion is too close to Gyeonggi, and there is no natural danger to defend, with such 150,000 people here, it is difficult for me to sit still." ”

"Liang Zhongqiu is Wei Yunse's son-in-law, although he was under pressure and retired from the army in disgrace, how can he not hate it in his heart. Such a person, guarding the Daimyo's Mansion, is like a sharp blade hanging above our heads. ”

"I don't know what the loyal and brave marquis is."

Chen Shou said with a smile: "I transferred him to guard Gyeonggi." ”

The lobby suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at each other as if they were stunned.

"This is not an open-door thief?"

Chen Shou shook his head and said, "Liang Zhongqiu, just a pedantic nerd, I ordered him to transfer 2,000 people today, and 3,000 people to the river tomorrow, this is a plan to boil frogs in warm water." ”

"Boiled frogs in warm water? Wonderful! Huang Zhen said with a smile: "Could it be that he slowly warmed up, cut off his flesh with a knife, but did not suddenly exert pressure, so that he would compromise step by step between opposition and non-rebellion, and finally have the strength and courage to be our enemy?" ”

"Exactly!"

Chen Shou said in a condensed voice: "The first step, we will go to his soldiers and horses first, and only take out his five thousand people." Then he cut off his food and grass, cut the supply, and finally separated his subordinates and installed his own people into the daimyo's mansion. In less than a year, Liang Zhongqiu, the famous mansion, will be captured by me. ”

Liu Zhirong sighed: "I'm afraid that he will jump off the wall in a hurry." ”

"We put a collar around his neck, and when he wants to jump off the wall, we give him a slow, and if he doesn't dare to jump off the wall, we give him a tight grip and strangle him sooner or later. Liang Zhongqiu is just a fallen talent, and only because he climbed Wei Yunse can he become a feudal official. The reason why Wei Yunse put 150,000 people in his hands with peace of mind is because he is indecisive, cowardly, and has no ambition, which is convenient for Wei Yunse to control. It is as difficult as climbing to the sky for such an incompetent person to summon up the courage of the sky. ”

Huang Zhen also nodded and said, "Yes, if he had a little blood, Wei Yunse would have died at the beginning, and he would not have been left without a fight." You know, he is under Bianliang City, there are 150,000 soldiers and horses, we were ready to compromise with him and give up a lot of interests, but he didn't even dare to bargain! ”

Chen Shou's eyes froze, and he said in a deep voice: "The Daimyo's Mansion is located in the north and south, and if you lose the Daimyo's Mansion, Gyeonggi will be a smooth road." The situation is so erosive, we must take the Daimyo's Mansion. ”

"Hou Ye is wise."

Daimyo's Mansion, the General Army's Yamen.

Liang Zhongqiu's face was covered with gloom, he had just transferred 3,000 people to Wuqing County with Zhao Hong to suppress bandits.

The soldiers and horses of the Daimyo's Mansion have always been regarded as forbidden by him, especially after the death of his father-in-law Wei Yunse.

Although there is no backer, there is no one to take care of him, Liang Zhongqiu is not worried, but there is no time to secretly rejoice.

But at this time, he finally tasted the pain of not having a backstage, and the thieves in the court actually came to draw his soldiers, which was equivalent to touching the core interests of the military men of the Daimyo's Mansion.

"Lord Commander, those 3,000 people are all old, weak, sick and disabled, if the adults are unwilling, they can recall all the people with just a piece of paper!" Yang Zhi, the general below, clasped his fists and said.

Liang Zhongqiu was at war with heaven and man in his heart, and the needles in the hall could be heard, and finally he sighed, "Don't give him a handle because of a small loss, it's just three thousand old soldiers, let him use it, and give us a drill for nothing." ”

In the lobby, some people breathed a sigh of relief, some people had gloomy faces, and some people lowered their heads and looked at them with disdain.

Your own general army is instigated, how can this kind of thing be only once, there must be two, there must be two, there must be three, you are instigated for the first time, and it will be even more difficult to stand up in the future.

Because when the time comes, you will think, the first time you gave up, and this time you resist again, won't you suffer in vain the first time.

Liang Zhongqiu stood up, did not look at his subordinates, and returned to the inner courtyard in a depressed mood.

The general soldier's yamen is for both public and private purposes, the outer courtyard is the government office, and the inner courtyard is Liang Zhongqiu's private residence.

In this way, you can also ensure your own safety to the greatest extent.

The entire Daimyo's Mansion is Liang Zhongqiu's final say, and under the operation of Wei Yunse, he is here to integrate the military and government. Originally, there were many cronies of Wei Yunse in the Daimyo Mansion, and if Liang Zhongqiu dared to betray Wei Yunse, the soldiers and horses he could mobilize would be pitiful.

However, after Wei Yunse's death, his subordinates could only be dispatched by Liang Zhongqiu. This gave him a sense of pleasure in the shackles, but in addition to enjoying the power of self-sufficiency, he also needed to face more pressure.

In the past, no matter what Wei Yunse and Chen Shoudou became, they didn't need him to make up their minds, and they didn't need him to make decisions.

He only needs to do what Wei Yunse instructs, although he will be scared, but there is no need to decide.

In this world, most people, after enjoying the glory and wealth, actually do not have the courage to break the net. Liang Zhongqiu was no exception, he took a sip lightly, frowned, and said, "What's the matter, is this this this year's new tea?" ”

"Master, this year's tea in Jiangnan has not arrived in our Daimyo's mansion, so it can't be purchased." The maid lowered her hand and said.

Liang Zhongqiu smashed the cup and walked away...

Wuqing County, Linzhong Cottage.

The pine oil torches on the wall crackled, and on the top tiger skin chair, a young woman of about thirty years old held her arms in her hands.

"Scar monk, you let go of the officers and soldiers last time, and this time people came to the door, what do you have to say?"

The scarred monk touched his head and called Tianqu: "Lord Xiang, this matter has nothing to do with me at all, it was Lao Liu Tou who was in charge of watching people that night." ”

An old man with a hunched waist immediately scolded: "Let your mother's fart, they took Lao Tzu's medicine and should sleep until the next day." I think it's clear that you kid coveted the softness in their bodies, and killed people and threw their corpses. ”

The scar monk was furious, held his Zen staff, and turned to bear the old man.

Qin Yinglian slapped the table, pinched her thin waist with her hands, and pointed at the two people and scolded: "Everyone is coming to the door, you two inferior people are still killing each other, it doesn't matter if you die, carefully dirty my lobby." Annoyed the old lady to give you a knife, stabbed to death and thrown into the forest to feed the dogs. ”

Qin Yinglian was so powerful that the two bandits suddenly didn't dare to speak anymore, and Old Man Liu said with a smile: "Master Xiang, your subordinates are really wronged." ”

From beginning to end, I didn't look at Chen Fu who looked uneasy in the corner, everyone was used to treating him as a little transparent.

"Regardless of him, anyway, the officers and soldiers have already called the door, and the sect leader sent someone to spread the word a few days ago, saying that they had borrowed 3,000 soldiers and horses, and today it is really the same. 3,000 people is not a small number, do you say we should hide in the mountains and forests, or do we do it with them! ”

"Fuck it!"

"I can't beat it, so let's run."

"Why don't you ask the sect leader?"

......

It's a mess at the bottom, you say a word to me, Qin Yinglian raised her eyebrows, and said, "Shut up!" ”

The crowd quieted down, Qin Yinglian turned her head, walked to a seat in a hurry, and asked with a smile on her face: "Brother Du, what do you say, we will all listen to you." ”

"Why listen to him? How many days has he only been in the church? A sour feeling swelled in the scarred monk's heart, and he questioned loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a swish in his ear, and a flying knife galloped past, and the Buddha beads hanging around his neck were scattered all over the ground.

"You're talking, my mother wants your life!"

The scar monk was cold, his neck was stalked, he just wanted to resist, but when he thought of this girl's methods, he couldn't deal with it by himself, so he had to bow his head and stop talking.

"Coward, I'm not a man." Qin Yinglian was still unforgiving, scolded ruthlessly, and continued to turn to ask with a smile: "Brother Du, you say." ”

None of the bandits below had a kind person, and they all laughed, and a few of them had already stepped forward to ridicule. The scarred monk's face turned red, and he wanted to rape and kill Qin Yinglian on the spot, but unfortunately his skills were not as good as others, so he could only bow his head in shame and not say a word.

The beauty posted it, but Du Shaoqing frowned, stepped back, and said, "It's better to test it first, see how many layers of strength they have, and then make a decision." If the difference in strength is too great, they will abandon the village, and they will not stay here for a long time anyway. If the strength is similar, ask the sect leader for reinforcements; If it's a bunch of wine bags and rice bags, we'll wipe them all out here. ”

"Good!"
