Chapter 424: The Back of the Three Killings Order
After sending the messenger, Tian Hu once again thought about changing the crown prince. If Jinju is really passed on to Tian Shiyi, the ancestors of the Tian family may really have a day when they will be ranked in the temple. It's just that Tian Shiyi has not been loved since he was a child, and I don't know if he will hate himself, Tian Hu didn't come up with a name for himself after thinking about it......
A teahouse on Mahang Street in Bianliang City has recently changed its shopkeeper, and the new shopkeeper's surname is Wu, who is polite and polite, and gets along very well with the surrounding neighbors. When the teahouse was closed, the shopkeeper Wu asked the newly bought concubine to go to the back to rest first, but he poured a bowl of old wine and drank it silently.
The brothers on Liangshan died and there was no one left, and Wu Yong couldn't find a helper if he wanted to take revenge, so he had to survive for a long time.
Sitting alone in the dark until midnight, Wu Yong whispered softly in his mouth: "What a powerful Tianci army, such a majestic Tian Shiyi." Hum! When the tiger is still napping, I don't believe that you Tian Shiyi is an iron plate. One day at the latest, I'm going to slaughter all of you......"
If it is said that among these people who received the battle report, the most breathless and unbelievable is still Tan Zhen.
That day, Tan Zhi looked at the two brothers Wu Jue and Wu Luan, who had returned from a fiasco, and was so angry that he almost ordered the two to be pushed out and beheaded. The elite of the 10,000 Western Army fled back less than 3,000, but not a single one of the Tianci Army died, how was this battle fought?
To say that Wu Jue was also so brave in the war with the Western Xia people, why did he become like this when he encountered the Tianci army?
Those who are handsome must be rewarded and punished clearly, and the two Wu Jie brothers were defeated for no reason, and this matter must be punished. If there is no punishment, there will be no one to die later.
Tan Zhi ordered that the two Wu brothers be sentenced to 80 military sticks each, demoted to three ranks, and allowed to wear the crime for meritorious service. The 2,400 soldiers who fled from the defeat were all beheaded, and from now on, if anyone escapes from the battle, they will not be beheaded.
The generals were shocked when they heard this. It's just a demotion to the third order, and no one with eighty military sticks can stand it, and they will definitely not be able to escape a dead word. The beheading of 2,400 soldiers is an unprecedented heavy punishment, and they are all sons of the Western Army, so they can't let Tan Zhi cut them casually.
Seeing that the generals knelt down and pleaded, Tan Zhi knew that his goal of establishing authority had been achieved, but the military orders issued could not be changed, so it was seen here that Tan Zhi's tricks and murder did not blink.
Tan Zhi claimed that for the sake of the generals' faces, the military sticks of the two brothers, Wu Jue and Wu Luan, could be temporarily recorded, and if they lost the battle again, they would be punished for both crimes. As for the 2,400 heads, there must be, and the non-commissioned officers and soldiers in the West have all made meritorious contributions to the country, and they can be replaced by the defeated soldiers of the Ningwu Army.
On the same day, Niu Tong led the Tianci army to break the gate of Hangzhou, and the Manichaean rebels took the opportunity to occupy the entire Hangzhou, and the Ningwu army fled in all directions after the defeat. In today's Western Army barracks, there are nearly 3,000 defeated soldiers of the Ningwu Army.
Ning Wujun was at this time when his grandmother was not loving his uncle and uncle, and the generals of the Western Army would not intercede for him. In this way, nearly 3,000 Ningwu troops were tied up and sealed, and their heads were cut off instead of 2,400 Western troops.
When Tian Shiyi heard the news, he couldn't help but sigh that Tan Zhi's heart was ruthless, nearly 3,000 human lives had become Eunuch Tan's powerful tool in an instant, these eggless guys were really ruthless enough. 4E
Soon, a secret spy from the Nanxing Division came again and reported to Brother Eleven that Tan Zhi had killed the three thousand Ning Wu army, but it was more detailed. When Tian Shiyi heard that Liang Hongyu's father was among the defeated soldiers of the beheaded Ning Wu army, the whole person was stunned.
Liang Hongyu's father was nowhere to be found, but it turned out to be hiding in the barracks of the Western Army. It's not good for you to hide, but hide under the hands of that dead eunuch. Okay, this time, hide your head, and let yourself explain to Liang Xiaoniu.
With a long sigh, Tian Shiyi decided that it was better not to tell Liang Hongyu about the news. With Liang Xiaoniu's temperament, if she knew that her father was cut down by Tan Zhi as a scapegoat at this time, she couldn't say what she would do. Now is the time of chaos, and we must not let her come out and run around.
Compared with Tian Shiyi's depression, Tan Zhi can be called angry.
Han Shizhong also had some brains, knowing that if he handed Tian Shiyi's "Three Kills Order" to Tan Zhi with his own hands, there must be no good fruit to eat, so he first mixed in Wu Jue's defeated army and returned to the Western Army barracks, and then sneaked into the Chinese army's big tent at night and quietly put the "Three Kills Order" on Tan Zhi's table.
The Chinese army's tent was infiltrated, doesn't this mean that another assassin can enter and leave the Chinese army's tent at will? Therefore, all the guards on duty were pressed to the ground and beaten with sticks.
Tan Zhi, as a dignified envoy of the two Zhejiang roads, will naturally not be threatened by a rebel army. The generals of the Western Army were so angry when they heard the content of Tian Shiyi's letter, and some generals even proposed to go out and kill 10,000 people and send them to Tian Shiyi, so that the boy surnamed Tian knew that the Western Army was not a good threat. In fact, everyone knew that the general who made this suggestion just wanted to go out and grab some money, and by the way, take some more women and come back to have fun.
What the generals of the Western Army didn't expect was that Tan Zhi did not accept the generals' proposals, but said that the generals were kings, but they wanted to insult and rob the people by the rebels, don't you feel ashamed? He also said that everyone is an official army, and caring for the people is what should be done, and if you want to fight, you must fight for the length of the battlefield, and only by cutting off Tian Shiyi's head can you be considered a hero.
Immediately, Tan Zhi ordered, but anyone who cares about harming the people will be beheaded.
The generals stared at each other, and someone immediately stood up and said that Lord Tan loves the people like a son, and is a model of a hundred officials, and my generation will definitely follow suit. Then all the generals expressed their heartfelt intentions, to fight bravely to kill the enemy, and to dedicate Tian Shiyi's head to the tent of the envoy.
Tan Zhi encouraged the generals very much, so that the generals went back to prepare for the war, and after that, the Western Army under Tan Zhi really never dared to harm the people.
In fact, Tan Zhi didn't care about killing millions of people, but the most important thing was that there was a line of words on the back of Tian Shiyi's "Three Killings Order", and the generals didn't see that line of words. The wording of that line was very casual, but there was no intention of killing, only saying that if Tan Zhi could restrain his subordinates, he could be spared once in the future.
The record of the Tianci Army is too terrifying, Tan Zhi has lost the confidence to win, and he has begun to regret listening to Tong Guantong's words. But the war has reached such a point that he has to fight whether he wants to or not, and the paragraph written by Tian Shiyi after the "Three Kills Order" also reassured his heart. As long as you can save your life, be more conservative when fighting, and try not to damage too many soldiers, you can be regarded as invincible.
When Tan Zhi first came to the southeast, he was naturally ambitious, but first sent 10,000 people to attack the Tianci Army with heavy losses, and led his troops to the outside of Shezhou City and was designed by the treacherous and cunning Lou Minzhong, and nearly half of the grain and grass were burned, Tan Zhi had become cautious at this time. He didn't even send troops to attack Shezhou City, but instead ordered to retreat to Yixian, avoiding Lou Minzhong far away, and putting on a posture of waiting for Tong Guan's 100,000 troops.
