Chapter 277: Sun Tu's intentions
Qingzhou Mansion, prefect's office.
Today's Murong Yanchao looks no different from the past on the surface, he came to the Yamen as usual, and he also handled the trivial official affairs at hand as usual. But in fact, those subordinates who were familiar with his habits could already see from some of his subtle movements, and the actions that would glance out from time to time, that he was actually not in his mind, and was expecting something to happen. And everyone knows what he's waiting for.
Yesterday, the prefect of Murong was disgraced in front of Sun Tu, and then he specially called Du Heng, the commander of the Xiang army, to him, although no one else listened to the conversation between the two, they could guess that he would arrange for Du Heng to deal with Sun Tu and squeeze him out of the barracks.
In the eyes of those officials, with the power of the prefect and the manpower in Du Heng's hands, it is definitely not difficult to do this, maybe this time they can take the opportunity to take down Sun Tu and the others together, and then find a reason to do it once and for all. Even if there will be some changes in the middle, it should not stir up too many waves.
But the result of the matter was beyond everyone's expectations, after noon, a person ran into the yamen in a panic, and in a panic, he couldn't care about reporting to the prefect, and rushed into the yamen and shouted busily: "Futai, there is an accident in Futai, where is the barracks...... There was a conflict there, and General Du was captured alive by Sun Dujian's people, and Sun Dujian also ordered him to be beheaded for public display...... "After shouting similar words several times, he stumbled to the front of the public house, panting for breath.
When the surrounding officials heard this, they all ran over, looking at him and Murong Prefect's Mansion, whose face had changed drastically with a look of panic and disbelief. Everyone wanted to say something, but they didn't dare to open it for a while.
After being stunned for a long time, Murong Yan got up in a hurry, rushed out of the door in three steps and two steps, bent down and grabbed the collar of the visitor, and roared like a roar: "What did you say? Du Heng, he was actually taken down by Sun Tu in the barracks? What are those soldiers and horses doing for food? Where did Sun Tu get so bold? ”
This series of questions erupted, and all of them fell on the faces of the people who came, but this person couldn't answer for the Murong Prefect at all, so he could only hesitate for a moment and then whispered: "The little one doesn't dare to deceive the mansion, this matter is true, I saw General Du being taken down with my own eyes outside the camp." Those soldiers of the Xiang Army had also put down their weapons and did not dare to do anything to Sun Dujian......"
Murong Yanchao's hand slowly let go, and his body began to tremble: "It's all a group of rice buckets, a group of white-eyed wolves who eat inside and out, and can't be raised!" Wow, it's only one day, and he's going to take back all the military power......" This result is really unacceptable to him, and he is still a little dizzy, and his body is even more shaky, and it seems that he will fall down at any time.
Seeing this, Jing Yiming hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and shouted: "What are you all still doing in a daze, go and ask the doctor to come and treat Futai......" As he spoke, he helped Murong Yanchao back to the room and sat down, and the others didn't dare to touch their brows anymore when they saw this, except for someone who ran to ask for a doctor, everyone else dispersed in a hurry, but their expressions were different from before.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Murong Yanchao's body, but he will have some abnormal reactions when he is angry and angry, and at this time, he will not be able to do anything in Jing Yiming

After another period of persuasion, he finally calmed down a little, but the anger in his eyes did not decrease: "How can this be...... I told Du Heng yesterday that he must go all out, how could he still fold it in Sun Tu's hands......"
Jing Yiming lowered his head and smiled bitterly, what is the use of pursuing this matter now? But he still persuaded in his mouth: "Futai, it seems that we still underestimated Sun Tu's courage and methods, no wonder he dared to openly be an enemy of us as soon as he arrived in the city yesterday...... However, it is too late to care about these things, and the top priority now is not to let Sun Tu kill Du Heng in public, otherwise the situation will only get worse and worse. At that time, the military spirit and even other people will fall to Sun Tu, and it will be difficult to win back a city. ”
"No...... Not bad! I must not let him kill Du Heng under the pretense of military law! After calming down, Murong Yanchao also quickly understood that the reason why he was able to say everything in Qingzhou City was to rely on an iron fist, and now if Sun Tu can really overwhelm him several times, the guys who were originally looking forward to him would have to think about changing the court.
Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately stood up: "Let's go, this is to call the people in the yamen to go to the barracks with this official to ask Du Heng to come back!" "This is a battle he must not lose.
"But Futai, your body ......" Jing Yiming asked with some concern, but the other party waved his hand: "I can't take care of it now, otherwise it will be the end of you and me!" Dropping these words, he had already strode out of the door, Jing Yiming could only hurry up when he saw this, and then gestured to several prefect henchmen outside the door, they immediately understood, and quickly ran outside to gather people.
The officers of this government are actually more officers and soldiers than the box army in the barracks, at least with Murong Yanchao's order, more than 100 officers gathered in front of the lobby in a moment, and the two heads of the yamen have also been waiting there with swords and guns. After learning that they were going to the barracks to grab people, these people didn't have the slightest worry, so they quickly followed Murong Yanchao's horse and rushed out of the mansion.
At the same time, the people in the city also spread the rumor that the newly arrived Sun Dujian wanted to compete with the prefect for a long time, which was combined with the news that the Sun Dujian had made a big fuss in the government yesterday that spread earlier today, and it made people speculate and have different opinions for a while.

Vanjun barracks.
The dozens of soldiers stood anxiously and blankly in the open space in front of the barracks, not knowing what to do. Sun Tu took down Du Heng just now, and the action of making people shoot their robes without hesitation was too shocking, so that they still felt terrified until this time.
Many people looked at Qi Desheng, who was also standing in front of the barracks, with begging eyes at this time, but he didn't dare to enter the door at will at this time, so he could only put his expectations on Lin Chong, after all, this person seemed to have a good friendship with Sun Tu. At the same time, he was also worried, afraid that once the matter came out, the Murong Prefect would be furious, and what should he do if there was a dispute between the two sides?
As an old man in the Qingzhou military camp, Qi Desheng has personally seen many of his superiors, Wu Jiang, framed and died by Murong Prefect under various pretexts. Although today's Sun Dujian looks completely different from those people, he acts decisively and ruthlessly, but in the final analysis, in this era of military discipline, military generals

Do you really dare to be the enemy of the head of a government, or even fall out completely? Isn't he afraid of being pursued by the court afterwards?
has the same concerns, as well as Lin Chong, who has high hopes for him. At this time, Lin Jiaotou was looking at Sun Tu with a worried face, and said, "San Lang, you are too nonsense. Isn't this an attempt to be an enemy of the Murong Prefect? He's not going to give up, so what's the point? ”
Sun Tu, who was the party concerned, looked relaxed: "Brother Lin, do you think that if I make a compromise, I can let him let me go?" As far as I know, none of the generals before me dared to oppose him, but how many of them fell into Murong Yanchao's hands? And there is one thing you don't know, as early as yesterday after I entered the city, I went to the prefect's yamen to have a showdown with him. What I want is to completely control the military power of Qingzhou. The side of the couch does not allow others to snore! ”
Hearing Sun Tu say this famous sentence of the Taizu of this dynasty, Lin Chong's heartbeat accelerated, and then he looked at the other party and said, "You...... Have you already decided to fight to the end with the Murong Prefect? At this moment, he realized that Sun Tu in front of him was already so unfamiliar, and he was no longer the little brother who was enthusiastic about the old road in Tokyo City.
In front of Lin Chong, Sun Tu didn't have the intention to hide, and immediately nodded: "Yes, in fact, when I was transferred to Qingzhou by the imperial court, I had no choice since I was transferred to Qingzhou, and Murong Yanchao and I were destined to be enemies." In that case, the soldier is so fast, I can't give him a chance to prepare, and I will kill him by surprise as soon as I come here. ”
Lin Chong could only sigh, the words were all said for this part, how else could he persuade him?
Yang Zhi asked with some confusion at this time: "San Lang, since you have already made this decision, why do you want to keep Du Heng's life temporarily?" I'm only worried that Murong Yanchao will come to snatch people after learning about this, and then it will be another trouble. ”
Lin Chong and Luda were also a little puzzled by this, and they all looked over at this time. Sun Tu smiled: "I don't kill him now, but I plan to punish him again tomorrow, there are two purposes." One of them is to gather the hearts of the army: Brother Lin said before that in addition to Murong Yanchao's deliberate suppression and dismantling, Du Heng, the commander, is also 'indispensable'. I think that the officers and men of the army must have a grudge against him, and as soon as the news spreads, the officers and men of the Xiang army will rush back to the camp at noon tomorrow to see what is going on, and then I will be able to regather the Xiang army in the city. "After all, he is the governor of Qingzhou, and he is responsible for commanding and training the troops, so he naturally has to gather all the people in this army as soon as possible.
"And what about the second purpose?" Ruda asked.
"It's very simple, I'm waiting for Murong Yanchao to come and save people." Sun Tu's eyes flashed sharply: "Although I made him lose face in the government office yesterday, it was in the yamen after all, and it didn't have much impact on him." And today, if I can make him lose face again here in the barracks, in full view of everyone, I think his years of prestige will be greatly reduced. At that time, I will take advantage of the victory to pursue, and I will definitely be able to defeat him! ”
Lin Chong and the three of them changed color again, only then did they know that Sun Tu was so attentive, but they didn't know if the Murong Prefect would come to the door with a plan.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside, and then Tang Feng pushed the door and reported: "Eunuch, Murong Yanchao led people into the camp ......"
