Chapter Forty-Six: The General Rises Troops
Feelings are so wonderful that they can't be explained. Maybe it's the smile in the smoke and rain, maybe it's the dewy love of the Pingshui meeting, there is always a time when it comes to fruition, the more anxious it is, the more disappointing it is.
Wei Kai was not in the mood to care about the reason why the Wu Clan was so urgent, after all, the Wei clan in Yucheng had finally fallen, and Wei Kai had no intention of returning to the Wei State, and no matter how many secrets there were, it was just a little reminiscence of the old man.
The hegemony of the dynasty is not as good as a chic sword in the world, there is revenge, there is resentment and complaining, live a chic and happy life, and kill a chic and dripping killing, this is Wei Kai's current idea.
However, when he learned that the slave traders in Pingnan had begun to invade Changchuan, Wei Kai's full of freedom and ease instantly turned into deep malice.
Looking at the urgent official document from Changchuan County, especially when he learned that the thieves had killed innocent people, their heads, stacked on small hills, and set up wooden plaques to congratulate Chen Cang's army on their oath, Wei Kai was particularly angry.
These clans took their pity as a joke, and after trampling on it, they slapped Wei Kai hard, and sure enough, being merciful to the enemy was cruel to themselves.
Wei Kai had just prepared to crusade against the slave forces in Pingnan, and it didn't take long for them to learn about it, and even retaliate quickly, so as to deter Wei Kai.
If there was no contact with the remnants of the rebel clan in the city, Wei Kai would not believe it. It seems that he is still too benevolent, he really wants to cut the grass to remove the roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows.
"General", the subordinate of the hall Kou Wang Pi, saw that all the leading generals had been called, but Wei Kai sat high in the hall and didn't say a word, just the look on his face was gloomy and terrifying, so he got up and reminded.
Wei Kai, who was still secretly blaming himself just now, woke up instantly after hearing Wang Bi's reminder. Looking at the generals who had already prepared in the hall, he got up and said loudly: "Everyone, now the thieves are invading my territory and killing my people, which is extremely cruel.
How can we, the soldiers of Great Qin, sit idly by and watch the people suffer, this is the time for our soldiers to serve the country."
As soon as the words fell, Wei Kai looked around at the generals in the hall and continued: "Do you have the intention of serving the country?" Do you have the intention of protecting our people? Can you have the meaning of making a contribution? ”。
"The last general is willing to follow the general, crusade against the thieves, and protect me Chen Cang", I saw that all the generals in the hall shouted in unison.
"Okay, pass on my military order: tonight's second watch, the whole army will make dinner, and the army will open the old warehouse without delay."
The generals said in unison: "Obey the general's orders", and then the generals retreated and prepared to go on the expedition.
"General, Lord Si Kou", after the generals of Chencang County, Yu Jin and other generals left, he returned to ask to see Wei Kai, and seeing that Si Kou Wang Pi did not leave, he saluted Wei Kai and Wang Pi one by one.
"General Yujin, are there any more questions?"
Looking at You Jin, who was going and returning, Wei Kai, who was discussing other matters with Wang Pi, asked curiously. Wang Bi on the side also looked at You Jin, who looked respectful in the hall.
You must know that the two brothers, You Da and You Jin, were the first to follow Wei Kai, although as an old family, Wei Kai had doubts about the motives of the two before.
However, later, Wei Kai knew the dedication of the two, so he no longer guessed the two of them, but used them more. By Da, by Jin may be to repay Wei Kai's promotion, for what Wei Kai said, he has always been obedient to his words and never refutes.
"Hmm..., there will be a sentence in the end, I don't know ......."
Seeing that You Jin looked like he wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it, Wei Kai smiled, glanced at Wang Pi next to him, and then said: "General You Jin, your two brothers have followed me the longest, can you say anything directly?" You don't have to hide it."
"General, now that my Chen Cang's army is exhausted, I'm afraid that the old clan in the city will be restless?"
After hearing what You Jin said, Wei Kai's face, which was still smiling, changed color in an instant, and he was so frightened that You Jin immediately sued him again and again.
Wang Bi looked at Wei Kai's gloomy face, thinking that Yu Jin might anger Wei Kai, so he glanced at You Jin, who was still accusing in the hall, and hurriedly persuaded: "General, what the general said is reasonable." Although the old clan survived, they acted resentfully, and they had to guard against it."
You must know that changing generals in battle is a taboo for soldiers. What is even more terrifying now is that Wei Kai originally did not have many capable cadres, and at this time, Chen Cang was in an abnormal crisis, and everything had to be cautious.
Looking at the two people next to him who were in a big situation, Wei Kai breathed a long sigh of relief, and then helped up Yu Jin, who was kneeling on the ground and pleaded guilty, and said: "This is my Wei Kai's problem, not the general's problem, I hope the general doesn't mind."
Then he handed the official document from Changchuan County on the table to Wang Pi and You Jin in the room. After the two finished reading, Wei Kai touched his head, sighed at the two and said: "This is my Wei Kai's stupidity, it is really hateful to affect the people of Changchuan."
After Wang Pi and You Jin visited, their faces were very heavy. The cruelty of the thieves' methods is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and at the same time, they took the initiative to attack Wei Kai, who had just pacified the old clan, which also showed his arrogance and fearlessness.
Looking at Wei Kai, who was full of self-blame, You Jin hurriedly knelt down and persuaded him: "That's right, the general can't lead the army to fight in person." Let the last general lead the army, and unite with General Zhang Zheng's headquarters in Changchuan County, and we will definitely be able to resist the enemy who invades our Chencang."
Seeing this, Wang Pi on the side also stroked his beard and said: "Capture the thief and capture the king first, and the general's ability is not to attack the city and plunder the land, but to strategize."
Garrisoning Chencang can not only suppress the clans in the city, ensure the stability of the rear of our army, but also allow the front-line soldiers to have no worries."
When Wei Kai heard this, he knew that the reason why the two of them emphasized the danger of the clan was to persuade them to stay in Chencang to avoid encounters on the front line.
So he smiled and said, "Lord Si Kou, do you think that I, Wei Kai, am a person who has no power to restrain the chicken?" Now that the war ahead is urgent, I, as Chen Cangling, are huddled in the county seat, sitting back and watching the front-line soldiers die and be wounded, don't you chill the hearts of the soldiers? ”
Without waiting for Wang Pi and You Jin to continue to persuade, Wei Kai took out the Qi Qi sword, split the case with a sword and said: "If you don't fight, you will have to win this battle, and if you don't fight, you will win; If you do not win, you will behead me immediately to comfort the whole army.
If Wei Kai violates this oath, he will be shattered like this case."
You Jin and Wang Bi saw Wei Kai's reluctance and knew that there was nothing to do, but they were worried about Wei Kai's safety, so they looked at Wei Kai with a puzzled face.
After all, the core of Chen Cangjun is Wei Kai. Wei Kai is here, and the Chen Cang clan does not dare to be reckless; Wei Kai is here, and the people of Chen Cang are willing to believe in the government and support the change of the law.
"Lord Sikou, General Youjin, don't worry. Everything is in the hearts of the people, I, Chen Cangjun, conform to the will of the people, and act on behalf of the sky, I will definitely get the protection of Haotian", seeing that if the two of them did not convince the two, they would not easily let Wei Kai go, let him leave the county, and lead the army to the battle, Wei Kai had to smile and say.
"As for the Chen Cang clan, I have my own way, so I don't have to worry too much."
Seeing that Wei Kai insisted repeatedly, Wang Bi and You Jin stopped persuading, and after discussing some matters, they retired together.
However, in private, Wang Bi and You Jin planned to arrange more guards to protect Wei Kai's safety, and even if the war was unfavorable, they would take Wei Kai to retreat first. After all, they all believed in Wei Kai, and firmly believed that as long as Wei Kai was still there, Chen Cang would be able to make a comeback even if he failed.
Late at night, the White House is still brightly lit. Since Wei Kai personally promised not to pursue the Bai family's previous crimes, the Bai family's children, who had been in fear all day, gradually quieted down.
After all, when Wei Kai settled in Chencang County, there were people outside the city, and the clans in the city were crying and grabbing the ground. The title of the Demon King of Wei is not praised in vain, you must know that the crying of those widows can be faintly heard late at night.
In the ancestral hall of the Bai family, the Bai family held a clan meeting after a long absence, and the Bai family's important place, which was deserted for a while, was suddenly crowded.
"Be quiet, be quiet", Bai Jin, as the head of the family, looked dignified and majestic at this time, leaning on crutches, and shouted to the Bai children in the hall.
Then immediately, the patriarchal elders came out and shouted: "Stop, stop", and suddenly the crowd that was buzzing just now slowly quieted down, and they all looked at the Bai clan elders in the middle of the hall.
Feeling the doubtful gazes cast by the children of his own family, Bai Jin got up and said loudly: "Chen Cangling no longer cares about my Bai clan's sins now, and my Bai clan will be the Qin family who supports the new monarch from now on."
As soon as the words fell, the originally quiet crowd instantly began to make an uproar. After all, as soon as Bai Jin's words came out, it meant that the Bai clan officially broke with the old clan of the Qin State, you must know that the old clan and the new monarch of Liyang have always been at odds with each other, how can you talk about support?
Before the children of the family gathered around could speak, Bai Jin continued: "Now that the thieves have committed me Chen Cang, the Bai clan, as the Chen Cang clan, should serve the country.
Now my Bai clan will decide to select a hundred sons from my Bai clan's young sons and follow Chen Cangling's expedition to defend the country, make meritorious contributions, and remember the glorious ...... of my Bai ancestor."
Before Bai Jin finished speaking, there were bursts of protests from the hall, even if the elders in charge of the patriarch came out to maintain the situation, they could not calm the riots of the crowd, but instead became more and more intense.
You must know that although the Bai clan was not exterminated by Wei Kai, it also lost more than half of its ancestral business, not to mention that the children of the Bai clan were brutally slaughtered by Wei Kai outside the city and Bai Jin was later humiliated outside the city.
Although the Bai clan was able to survive, all other fame and wealth, thanks to Wei Kai, were lost, and they became infamous and intolerable. How can the hot-blooded children of the Bai family not hate Wei Kai? Even if you don't hate, you won't work for Wei Kai?
"Patriarch, this is a big fallacy. I'm waiting for the old clan, how can I give in, then the Wei thief ......"
Before he could finish speaking, the patriarchal guard, who was already waiting beside him, dragged the person who spoke out.
Bai Jin on the side looked at everyone silently, and then said sharply: "Bai Ming, ignoring the patriarchal law and disrespecting the way of heaven, Bai Ming is now expelled from the sect and expelled from my Bai clan, who in the hall still has objections?" ”
Suddenly, the children of the Bai clan in the hall were instantly silent, and looked directly at Bai Jin with a gloomy face, not daring to refute. You must know that the expulsion of the children of the clan from the clan is tantamount to sentencing him to death. Imagine that even the clans of blood relatives are not willing to be compatible, who in the world is willing to trust this person?
Looking at the children of the family who left silently, the patriarch elder Bai Jing said softly: "Patriarch, we might as well ......."
"Needless to say, the Bai family is still the head of the family now", after Bai Jin heard it, he glared fiercely and did not speak.
Seeing this, Bai Jing stopped talking, after all, there was no one in the Bai clan who was more talented than the old master in front of him, otherwise when Chen Cang suffered many great changes, the Bai clan would not have been damaged, but would continue to grow.
"I hope I didn't make a mistake ...... bet", Bai Jin looked at the bright moon in the sky and thought silently in his heart. This time the thieves invaded Chen Cang, and it was contacted by the surviving rebel remnants of Chen Cang, how could the Bai clan not know?
Thinking of the people in Pingnan who promised the Bai family glory and wealth, Bai Jin was funny. Say anything, as long as the Bai clan waits until Wei Kai leaves Chencang County, and unites other clans to exterminate Wei Kai's remaining forces, he will support the Bai clan as the lord of Chencang.
Hahaha, although the Bai clan used to be an old family that troubled the countryside, they would not split the land of the Qin State and bow to the lowly slave traders for the sake of glory and wealth, this is the foundation of the ancestors, Bai Jin kept thinking in his heart.
The moon stars are scarce, and when they heard the news that Wei Kai had summoned the children of various clans to join the army, Chen Cang's clans reacted differently, either secretly happy or afraid.
When Dangdang, the second watch time, soon has arrived. Outside the city of Chencang, a dull snare drum sounded, and the barracks were suddenly full of people, and bright torches dotted the entire barracks, and the lights were overflowing.
