Volume 1 The Broken Mountains and Rivers of the Kingdom Chapter 77 The Wrath of the Public

Until this moment, Xie Yun didn't realize that Fang Yuanheng was asking him questions.

Originally, he was just a small marquis among the general's 100,000 soldiers and horses, subordinate to Yin Fang in Wang Min's army, and like dozens of marquis in the army, he had always looked up to Zhao Zhihai as if he were looking up at the stars, and he never thought that one day the general would ask himself like talking to General Wang Pi.

When Fang Yuanheng asked, Xie Yun still thought that the general was asking Wu Meng, he was still smiling stupidly, but his mind was immersed in incomparable joy.

It wasn't until no one in the hall spoke, and when it was a little weird, Xie Yun returned from his thoughts, but suddenly found that the hall was full of people looking at him, and Xie Yun couldn't help but be a little frightened.

He looked at the eyes of everyone around him, and then quietly looked at Zhao Zhihai who was sitting in the hall in the distance.

When he was sure in his heart that everyone was indeed looking at him, he couldn't help but feel at a loss, and fine white sweat instantly oozed from his forehead.

At this time, he only heard a lieutenant beside him whisper to him: "The general asked you how you dragged the Rong cavalry?" ”

"Ahh

"I, I...",

"Ah, General, I'm with, oh no, the last general didn't hear what the General asked, please atone for your sins."

After all, he is also the one who leads the troops, even if he is panicked, Xie Yun still knows that it is right to apologize to Zhao Zhihai first, so he quickly stood up as soon as he said two words, and hugged his fist to Zhao Zhihai to apologize.

Zhao Zhihai was staring at Xie Yun's expression from beginning to end, and couldn't help laughing when he heard him stammer.

"Hahaha, Captain Xie, what are you thinking just now, you can't even wake up the old man when he asks you?"

Everyone in the hall saw that Zhao Zhihai was indeed happy from the bottom of their hearts, and they didn't mean to blame Xie Yun, so they laughed loudly.

Xie Yun touched his head, with an embarrassed expression, but he didn't know what to say, and stood in front of his case with a red face.

"Alright." Zhao Zhihai raised his hand with a smile on his face, and the hall suddenly became quiet again.

"Others don't know you, but I, Zhao Zhihai, know you, Captain Xie fought with the Rong soldiers who rushed into the camp outside the territory, and at the same time fought against the four Rong chiefs, killing three and capturing one within a few breaths, which boosted the morale of the soldiers and repelled the Rong people.

Our army was able to hold out until the reinforcements came to save it, and Captain Xie contributed a lot.

Such a dignified man, Da Qin Yinghao should not be so ashamed.

Tell me how your soldiers resisted the five thousand cavalry of the Rong people. ”

"Boom",

As soon as Zhao Zhihai's voice fell, there was another sound of discussion in the hall. Everyone had heard about it, so at this time, everyone had a "it turned out to be him" expression and gave a thumbs up.

"Back to the General's words."

After listening to what Zhao Zhihai said, Xie Yun was also greatly moved, and after he straightened out his thoughts, he regained his vigor and vigor, and replied loudly:

"The annihilation of 5,000 Rong cavalry that day was all due to the clever plan of the Marquis of Baili."

Speaking of this, the hall that had just quieted down became noisy again, and tonight's banquet had opened the eyes of these banquet attendees, and the young Zhu Lihua had brought them an impact on their hearts again and again.

But Xie Yun didn't wait for everyone to be quiet like Wu Meng before talking, but kept talking in the noisy discussions.

Everyone was afraid of missing the highlights, so they all quieted down.

"The Marquis of Zhuli asked me to give up the camp I had just built and hide the soldiers in the forest outside the camp, but I didn't agree at the time, but I took a lot of effort to build the camp."

Speaking of this, it was as if he still felt a little pity and touched his hair.

Subsequently, Xie Yun explained how Lihua designed to ambush the soldiers and horses day by day, leaving less than a thousand soldiers and the Huotou army to lure the Rong cavalry to capture the camp, and poured oil and grease on the whole camp in the camp, and after the Rong cavalry captured the camp, the Qin army then blocked the camp gate and set fire to the camp.

Everyone in the hall listened carefully.

When Wang Min and some other generals heard this, they found that although this plan sounded quite simple, it was very difficult to actually implement.

How many troops are left to lure the enemy is the most appropriate, and it will not make the Rong people suspicious.

Where did the Rong soldiers set fire to the camp after they entered the camp, and whether the Qin army was hiding far or near before setting the fire.

After the camp fire broke out, block the camp gates everywhere when the soldiers should set off and how far away from the camp gate should be so that the Rong army would not find out in advance, and the Rong soldiers would not be able to escape.

Each of these problems requires careful planning in advance, careful observation and quick response.

It is hard to imagine that this man who has never led a battle alone could arrange for it to be carried out.

This battle is undoubtedly perfect in terms of planning, process, and result.

Zhu Lihua slaughtered all the 5,000 cavalry of the Rong people at the cost of 3,500 casualties when luring the enemy, which is what a general who leads the army in battle for the first time can do.

What's more, that general is the position of a military marquis.

Xie Yun said, bowed to Zhao Zhihai, and slowly sat down under Zhao Zhihai's signal.

The hall was silent, including Ma Yuan and the people who were quite familiar with Lihua on weekdays, all looked at Lihua with expressionless faces in surprise, staring at Lihua with their heads down, not to mention those who didn't know Lihua in the case.

Originally, everyone felt that Daqin had such a rising rookie and was excited, but after listening to Xie Yun's words, a trace of coldness rose in everyone's hearts.

The first reaction of people who know Lihua is that it is better not to have fellowship with this person in the future, while those who don't know Lihua are glad that they don't have fellowship with him.

The silence in the hall was a little terrifying, until Zhao Zhihai's voice sounded again:

"The Marquis of Zhuli, General Wu and General Xie both pushed you to be the first person in this battle, what do you want, even if you put it forward, except that you have been promoted several levels in a row and are not suitable for promotion to the military position for the time being, you can talk about treasures and beauties casually."

After speaking, Zhao Zhihai was still smiling and looked at Zhu Lihua.

When the other people saw Zhao Zhihai's expression, they also instantly understood that this banquet was a celebration banquet, but everyone was taken aback by Zhu Lihua, this is a taboo.

These spirits instantly returned to their normal colors, and they began to talk and laugh with each other.

Zhu Lihua slowly stood up and said to Zhao Zhihai: "General, that day, Zhu Lihua only saw the late autumn wood, and General Xie was really hard when he built the camp, so he remembered to use fire to attack, but now that I think about it, those Rong cavalry are also my Qin people, and this matter in Zhu Li is against heaven and people." Please also ask the general to punish him. ”

Zhao Zhihai could see that there was indeed something abnormal in Zhu Lihua, and there was obvious sadness and regret in his eyes when he said this, and it seemed that what he said was not pretended.

He said softly: "Although they are Qin, they have already betrayed their mother state, and on the battlefield, either you die or I die, you are just acting expediently, don't blame yourself." Say what you want. ”

"Since General Wu and General Xie both felt that this battle was the credit of my Lihua, and the general was so sincere in rewarding me, then Lili dared to ask for the general's favor."

Speaking of this, Zhu Lihua looked up at Zhao Zhihai, but Zhao Zhihai found that Zhu Lihua's eyes were red.

Zhu Lihua said word by word: "I also ask the general to build an ancestral hall in accordance with the etiquette of the Qin people, and bury the rebels who were burned to death." Let them be able to return to their hometowns and rest in peace. ”

After saying this, almost everyone in the hall was taken aback.

"How can this be done by building an ancestral hall for the rebels."

"Bold Lihua, you built a shrine and a tomb for the rebels, it is really treason, and you should be killed."

Before Zhao Zhihai could speak, some generals in the army and nobles with higher titles among the guests stood up one after another, glaring at Zhu Lihua and reprimanding him.

But Zhu Lihua lowered his head, Zhao Zhihai saw it clearly, and a tear fell from under the young man's face into the wine bottle on the case.

For Zhao Zhihai, building a shrine for the rebels was not a big rebellion, as the central spine, he had a lot of contact with the customs and customs of other countries, and he himself did not care so much about these Qin traditions.

So after Lihua finished speaking, he didn't feel that what Lihua said was out of line, except that he felt a little tricky.

But he carefully observed the movements in the hall, and knew that although he didn't care, these local nobles and the generals under his command were very concerned.

These aristocrats valued the rules of Qin etiquette more than life, because they were the foundation that made them human beings for generations.

Most of the generals under his command are the same as Wu Meng, and their hatred for the rebels is far greater than that of the Rong people.

Therefore, Lu Lihua is guilty of public anger.

"Slap" everyone saw Zhao Zhihai shoot the case, and his face instantly became extremely ugly.

"What a Lihua, do you know that only nobles can build an ancestral hall, and where will the Great Qin nobles stand if they build an ancestral hall for those rebels?

And once the shrine is built, what should the people who go to worship do?

When I visit the loyal shrines in various places every year, do I want to also go to these rebels to pay tribute?

Ridiculous, ridiculous! Although you are still young and don't understand these things, you can't be proud of your achievements and open your mouth! ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Zhihai's beard trembled, staring at Zhu Lihua, looking like he wanted to rush forward, which made everyone in the hall startled.

Several older nobles glanced at each other, then stood up and said, "Don't worry, General. ”

"General, the military marquis of Zhuli is young and ignorant, just teach a few words."

"That's right, what should the general do if he is angry and his body is bad, the military of Yuanzhou still depends on the general."

"The Marquis of Zhuli, quickly admit your mistake to the general, look at the general's anger."

Zhao Zhihai saw that the drama was almost done, so he waved his hand and said to Zhu Lihua:

"You don't have to stay in Yuanzhou anymore, now go back to the Qingyang camp immediately, you can't leave the city without my order.

Ma Yuan, you can go with Lihua. Show me tightly, and if he wants to disobey or complain, tell me about it. ”

"Ahh

Ma Yuan, who was worried about Lihua on the side, hurriedly stood up, walked to Lihua and pulled him up.

And Zhu Lihua also lowered his head and followed Ma Yuan out of the hall.

Seeing Zhu Lihua walk out of the hall, countless hateful gazes instantly rose behind him.

Zhao Zhihai naturally saw these gazes, so he said coldly: "No matter who it is, no matter how high the title you are, no matter how great the merit is, if you dare to fight against me and disobey my will, then you will kill it." ”

With the exit of the word "kill", the generals under Zhao Zhihai in the hall stood up together and responded with a bang.

At this time, these generals also saw that these local nobles actually hated because of Zhu Lihua's words, and a few of them obviously had murderous intent.

The generals are all battle-hardened people, and these eyes with murderous intent can be seen at a glance.

Although some of them were dissatisfied with Zhu Lihua's request, after all, Zhu Lihua helped Wu Meng achieve a victory that all the generals were extremely proud of.

And how can they show weakness in front of these local nobles.

When Zhao Zhihai slowly got up after saying this and left the hall, the generals in this group of troops also got up one after another and turned to leave.
