Chapter 408: One Heart
"Too, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, why did he deal with us? Is it because you are a member of His Royal Highness King Xing, Commander, that he did not hesitate to collude with foreign enemies and put our forward brigade to death? Huang Wenyuan said with an unacceptable look.
"Maybe, I'm not his person, so he's going to do whatever it takes to deal with me by all means! Hehe, maybe Wu Mingche, the old fox, is right, as military generals, we should stay away from the court, don't get involved in party disputes, just do our duty to protect our family and defend the country! Xiao Yao shook his head and said with a wry smile.
"But, but we are all soldiers of Da Chen, as the prince of Chen, the world will be his sooner or later, why, now he has already killed us, so if he sits on the throne at that time, won't we all be killed by him without hesitation? Even if we have made great contributions and laid down the entire country for him, with his ruthlessness, we will indeed be as Zhang Dabao said, we will be eradicated by the prince with just an excuse, and even not only ourselves, but also our family will be exterminated together! Just like Hu Luguang, the general of the Qi State, today he is still a prominent nobleman, and tomorrow his whole family will be beheaded! "Huang Wenyuan is not a fool, he sees the problem very well, and he is from a general's family, of course, he has long seen the fate of these losers in the court of the party.
"Do you regret joining my Forward Brigade and becoming my subordinate? I wanted to follow me everywhere to fight, make war achievements, and then become a fierce general of Chen Guo, but now I have become a thorn in the eye of Prince Chen Guo, and I am a battalion commander of the forward brigade that is fast after being removed! If you don't want to get involved in this party struggle, after recovering Huaibei, I can let you leave and let you return to your father's Western Route Army, and with this victory over Gao Changgong and the occupation of Xuzhou, you will definitely be able to have smooth sailing in your career in the future and become the general of Chen Guo! Xiao Yao looked at Huang Wenyuan with a smile and said.
"Commander, what are you talking about! I, Huang Wenyuan, am I such a person who forgets his righteousness and is greedy for life and afraid of death! Huang Wenyuan immediately knelt down and saluted Xiao Yao and said: "Although I was born in Jiangmen and has a father who is the commander of the Western Route Army, and my conditions are superior to all the soldiers of the Forward Brigade, I and them are brothers who are friends of life and death!" Although I, Huang Wenyuan, don't like the treacherous, sinister and weird struggles in the court, I also know that as a man and a husband, I must put loyalty first! So how could I be disloyal to the commander and abandon these brothers who once fought side by side with me for the sake of my so-called future? ”
"But our enemy is the crown prince, and he may be the future emperor of the Chen Kingdom. As the saying goes, the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die! When the time comes, Uncle Chen will really sit on the throne, and that will be the death of those of us who are against him! And it is not only us who will die, but also our own families, and many people will die because of us! Aren't you afraid? Xiao Yao asked solemnly.
"I'm afraid!" Huang Wenyuan nodded and said honestly, then suddenly grinned, showed a treacherous smile and continued: "So we don't want the crown prince to be the emperor!" ”
Suddenly, the entire temporary prison room became extremely quiet, and even Zhang Dabao was stunned by Huang Wenyuan's words, forgetting the pain in his body.
"Haha, Huang Wenyuan, you have so much confidence in me?" Xiao Yao suddenly laughed and said.
"Hehe, who is the commander, you are the famous Xiao Shilang! Not to mention that you led the General Commercial Bank, which had only been established for three years, to rise in Chen Guo and become the second largest commercial house, and you have been suppressing the Yinhai Commercial Bank, so that the prince can't eat and can't sleep well! Let's just say that our forward brigade made great achievements in the Northern Expedition, before only 1,000 people captured Xuyi County, and then helped Wu Dudu to break through Shouyang City, it can be said that without us, how could Chen Guo successfully recover Huainan in just half a year? Coupled with today's battle, within an hour, we easily defeated the army of the Qi State God of War Gao Changgong, killed countless enemies, and captured Zhang Dabao, a traitor, alive! The commander is so strategic, and he is like a god, of course I have the most confidence in the commander! Huang Wenyuan patted Xiao Yao's ass and said.
"Then have you really decided to follow me against the crown prince in the future? And he is His Majesty's own son, and many times, His Majesty's will be on his side! Xiao Yao reminded.
"Then we will fight even His Majesty together!" Huang Wenyuan said in surprise again.
"As the so-called generals are outside, the military order is not subject to it! We have now successfully defeated Gao Changgong, Lu Guangda should also take Xuzhou City, and after we completely defeat Gao Changgong in Xiapi County, Xuzhou will be ours! According to the usual practice, the newly occupied land city, the imperial court will appoint the chief of this army as the assassin of this place, after the recovery of Shouyang, the governor of Wu was appointed as the assassin of Southern Yuzhou, so this Xuzhou assassin history, must be the commander! When the time comes, we will be on the boundary of Xuzhou, we will be the lord of one party, hehe, even if His Majesty and the crown prince want to do something to us at that time, it will not be easy! Huang Wenyuan smiled treacherously.
"It seems that you usually laugh and laugh, but you still see the problem quite thoroughly! Haha, that's right, the history of the Xuzhou assassination is what I negotiated with Your Majesty, as a condition for sending troops to Xuzhou and recovering Huaibei! Before, we didn't have our own territory, so we only relied on a Jiangzhou assassination history of King Xing, but after King Xing was transferred to Xiangzhou, our territory in Jiangzhou was completely attacked by the prince! So if we want to gain a firm foothold and fight against the prince more confidently, we must build Xuzhou into our own territory! Xiao Yao said with a laugh.
"We will wholeheartedly assist the commander to become the assassin of Xuzhou, and we will faithfully follow the commander to fight against the prince, at any cost!" Huang Wenyuan and the three of them all knelt down to Xiao Yao and saluted.
"Okay, since you are all so rebellious and deceitful to the king, then I will give up my life to accompany the gentleman and make a big fuss with you in this troubled world!" Xiao Yao said with a laugh.
Then he pointed to Zhang Dabao, whose face was covered in blood and was tortured to the point of being inhuman, and said: "Escort him out and put him to death in front of the 5,000 soldiers of the forward brigade!" With his life, our forward brigade is now united in one mind, unified thinking against the prince's re-expedition to come to the flag! ”
"Yes!" The three of them responded neatly.
After a fierce battle just now, the battlefield scattered with countless corpses has now been roughly cleaned up by the group of Xiao County people who received the coercion and temptation of the forward brigade, and it no longer looks so disgusting! And in front of the city gate of Xiao County, Zhang Dabao, who was stripped naked and covered with blood stains, was tied to a wooden pillar behind him, and in front of him, there were 5,000 soldiers of the Forward Brigade standing neatly, as well as the people of Xiao County who were standing around to watch the excitement!
"The brothers of the Forward Brigade, the traitor Zhang Dabao, colluded with the Qi State for his own glory and wealth, designed to frame our Forward Brigade, and let our 3,000 soldiers die tragically on the battlefield, and now, we want to execute this traitor Ling Chi! To comfort the souls of those dead brothers in heaven! Xiao Yao shouted loudly.
"Ling Chi is executed! Ling Chi was executed! There was an earth-shattering roar at the scene.
。。。。。。
After an hour-long execution, Zhang Dabao's body and below the head have been cut to the skeleton, and he has already died of anger, and then Xiao Yao cut off his head with a knife, and then provoked it with a knife, raised it up, and said loudly: "Anyone who betrays the forward brigade will end up like this!" Brothers, we also have to attack Xiapi County to find Gao Changgong for revenge, break through Xiapi County, recover Huaibei, and the forward brigade will win! ”
"Victory! Win! ”
