Chapter 489: Power from the barrel of a gun

There is a way that Xiao Bie is newlywed, but for Sun Tu and Ya'er, this time they are newly married after a long absence, and the relationship between the two is naturally more and more intense after more than a year of separation.

The night lingered, even Sun Tu also felt sleepy, until the next day, when the sun was bright, and he didn't wake up until after the three poles of the sun, and Ya'er was still hugging him tightly at this time, and his entire petite body was still shrunk in his arms, as if he didn't want to be separated from his Langjun for a moment.

Because of this, with Sun Tu's slight movement, she quickly woke up from her sleep. After finding out that Lang Jun was still by his side and that everything was not his own dream last night, Ya'er smiled even more sweetly. Seeing this, Sun Tu also hugged her a little tighter, and sighed softly: "Ya'er, this period of time has really wronged you......"

"As long as you have Ya'er in your heart, third brother, Ya'er will be very happy, after all, a good man should make contributions." Ya'er said understandingly, and then said with a straight face: "I just hope that the third brother you have been well, don't go for more than a year like this time, and come back with a full body of injuries." ”

"I promise you, I won't do it again." Sun Tu said, and kissed her lightly on the forehead, "You can sleep for a while, now that the situation in the city is undecided, I have to go out to preside over the overall situation." ”

Ya'er is a person who knows the severity, so she naturally won't drag her husband at this time, so she nodded obediently and agreed. Last night, her consumption was indeed not smaller than Sun Tu, and she was still a little sore all over her body at this time, so she naturally didn't get up just like that, but just half-propped up and changed her clothes for Sun Tu.

When Sun Tu cleaned up and walked into the outer courtyard, he saw Hu Rong practicing martial arts there. The slender figure and the pair of long legs looked particularly eye-catching in the whirring wind, and when he saw this scene, in addition to appreciating it, he also had a little more dodge, and thought of the conversation he had with Ya'er on the bed last night.

When talking about everything after the two parted, Ya'er naturally mentioned Hu Rong's protection and care for her, and then looked at Sun Tu a little shyly and said: "Third brother, I did something behind your back before, don't blame me for saying it......"

"Huh? What have you done to be like this? Sun Tu asked with some curiosity.

"When I thought something happened to you, my whole body collapsed, and it was Sister Rong who took care of me all the time. In the meantime, we've become sisters......"

"This is normal, I can also see that you have a good relationship with her, how can I blame you."

"No, not that kind of sister, it's ...... It's ......" Ya'er said, leaning into Sun Tu's ear and whispering something, which made Sun Tu stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "You...... You actually sold your husband like this? Actually agreed to wait for me to come back and let Hu Rong be my wife? It was only then that he understood why Hu Rong was so out of shape when he saw him before, and Ya'er was not dissatisfied when she saw this move, it turned out that the two women had already reached a consensus behind their backs and formed an alliance.

A coquettish sound interrupted Sun Tu's thoughts, and Hu Rong had already rushed towards him, her fists and feet were whirring, and she looked a little strong. But this is nothing to Sun Tu, I saw him dodge the seemingly ferocious attack with a slight flash, and then made a lightning move, and grabbed the fist she handed to him, and pulled the other party in front of him in just a moment: "Sanniang, your kind of greeting is rare." ”

Hu Rong's face turned red, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand and stepped back, just said lightly: "It seems that you have become more and more proficient in martial arts after going out for a year." "The attitude is much colder than when we first met yesterday.

Sun Tu was only stunned for a moment and understood the reason, after all, the other party is a woman, and there should always be a reserve, especially when things look like they are going to be done. He looked into the other party's eyes and suddenly smiled: "Sanniang, do you remember what I said to you the night before I left Qingzhou?" Seeing Hu Rong nodding, he said again: "I will definitely abide by the words of that day, but I don't know if you are willing to marry me, Sanniang?" ”

Although Hu Rong was very willing to this, he was suddenly asked by him, but he was still full of shyness, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. After a while, she dropped a sentence: "You can ask Ya'er to know the answer...... and then ran away in a hurry, but her face now changed from indifference just now to a smile like a flower, and her heart was as sweet as drinking honey.

Sun Tu smiled when he saw this, since he had completely integrated into this era, he simply let go of his arms and follow the customs. For men in this era, three wives and four concubines are very normal things, not to mention that he is now two confidantes, Ya'er and Hu Rong.

It wasn't until Sun Tu walked out of the house and went to the mansion under the followers of a group of cronies that the gentle smile on his face completely disappeared, and at this time, he became the feared iron-faced Yama again!

In just one night, the Qingzhou Mansion has changed greatly, not only the prefect Gao Xiang and other officials were taken down, but the others were also temporarily detained, just waiting for the next trial to determine their crimes, and at the same time, the rest of the Qingzhou Army also temporarily used this place as a command post, Sun Tu naturally came here to meet his subordinates and discuss some official affairs.

And the so-called official affairs naturally refer to the changes in Qingzhou in the past year, the casualties in the army, and what to do next. Because of the importance of the matter, today's participants are all important cronies of Sun Tu's subordinates, not only Lin Chong came here, but even Luda, who was just rescued from prison yesterday, and several of them also came with injuries, and even Huang Wenbing, who was seriously injured and couldn't get up, insisted that people carry themselves here.

Sun Tu's gaze swept over these cronies and brothers one by one, and then he got up and bowed to them solemnly: "Sun Tu has thanked you brothers for not giving up on me for this year. If you hadn't persevered here, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to recapture Qingzhou City when I came back. ”

Seeing this, everyone quickly got up and returned the salute, even saying that they didn't dare. Especially Na Qi Sheng, at this time he was even more ashamed and worried, and said in the future: "Eunuch, before the humiliation......" He thought of his hesitation and ambiguity at the critical moment yesterday, and he was really scared all night.

But Sun Tu didn't let him continue, and immediately interrupted: "Brother Qi, yesterday's incident has passed, and you, like them, have been here for me for more than a year, how can I have a different opinion of you because of your little wavering?" Everyone, too, we are all brothers, and if we can share weal and woe, we should also be rich and prosperous in the future! ”

Seeing that he said solemnly, even if some people were dissatisfied with Qi Desheng's performance yesterday, they didn't mention it at this time, and nodded yes one after another. Huang Wenbing was even more sincerely happy when he saw this scene when he was half-lying there, Sun Dujian was more mature and tolerant than before after experiencing this storm.

The light topic ended here, and then, Sun Tu said solemnly: "Let's talk about it, in the more than a year since I left Qingzhou, how much have we lost?" ”

It was a heavy topic, and the smiles on everyone's faces quickly disappeared, and a few people gritted their teeth. After a long time, Lin Chong said: "Since you left, our Qingzhou army was not bad at first, but half a year later, with the arrival of Gao Xiang and others, coupled with the news of your murder in Liao, the military power was gradually not controlled by us, and was taken away by Hemer's people......" Speaking of this, he lowered his head in shame.

Indeed, Lin Chong's responsibility in this matter is extremely great. As one of Sun Tu's most trusted people and the commander of the army, he was in military power, and it was impossible for him to be taken advantage of by Homer, who had just come to Qingzhou. But his character is too weak, and in the process of retreating again and again, it finally led to today's result.

"I have an unshirkable responsibility for this matter, so I have been staying in Qingzhou, and I am also thinking that if the capital prison comes back, I will ask you for the guilt!" After hesitating for a moment, Lin Chong finally said his words, and quickly got up, nodded to the ground on one knee, and formally pleaded guilty.

Seeing this, Yang Zhi and Qi Desheng also got up and knelt with Lin Chong: "The two of them are actually not a small responsibility, if we are willing to persevere, maybe things will be completely different." ”

Sun Tu looked at these three people, and he also sighed in his heart.

In terms of the ability to lead troops into battle, the three of them can be regarded as the strongest among all his subordinates, because the three of them were in the army before. But it is precisely because of this layer of identity that they have a natural fear of the court and civil officials in their bones, even if they hold military power, they will still be restrained when facing civil officials like Gao Xiang, and then they will be defeated.

This is actually the inevitable result of the Great Song Dynasty's national policy of using literature to control military force over the past hundred years, and Sun Tu is really bad and completely blames them. Of course, in fact, he couldn't really punish these three people severely, so he got up after silence and helped them up one by one: "I know you have a hard time. I'll put aside the past, I just hope that you can learn the lesson of this time, and don't let people take away the military power of the army we have worked so hard to build. There is something I also want to tell all of you, what official power, what holy decree, even imperial power, it is all false. Only in the barrel of a gun can power come out! Therefore, military power is the foundation of everything! ”

These words were really bold to the extreme, and they were also shocked to the extreme, and for a while they made the people present stunned on the spot. Lin Chong, Huang Wenbing and several others even changed their faces slightly, and they were already faintly aware that today's Sun Tu was even more different from the past, and his loyalty to the Great Song Dynasty seemed to have been exhausted in this incident!

And other people like Ruda applauded loudly: "The eunuch said well, the words of the power from the barrel of this gun are really accurate!" ”
