Chapter 305: The Black Hand
Zhizhong Zhi stood up and said: "Dashuai, we did it too hastily at that time, and we didn't make all the preparations, so that Zhao Junsheng's people escaped and reported to the baggage camp!" At this time, it is useless to say this, and the subordinates also know that the marshal is aggrieved, but now the situation is almost out of control, and the marshal has lost the right to command the army, the subordinates suggest that the marshal should bear with it for the time being, as long as he can fool Zhao Junsheng and the others, wait for the matter to calm down, and after the threat of the Rouran people is lifted, we can find a way to find Zhao Junsheng and the baggage battalion to settle accounts! ”
The oil lamps in the tent crackled, but Yasuhara did not make a sound or say anything.
At this time, a young military general stood up and clasped his fists and said: "Dashuai, the last general thinks that it is reasonable to engage in it, let's bear it first!" How to deal with Zhao Junsheng and the baggage battalion, let's think about it in the long run! And now that there is such a trouble, Zhao Junsheng and the baggage battalion will definitely not be loyal to the court anymore, their combat power is strong, if they can't be used by the marshal, they can only kill them all, so as not to leave a disaster! ”
Everyone in the tent saw that it was Xi Yan who spoke, the son of Xi Jin, the king of Yicheng, who was implicated in Xi Jin's capture, and was deprived of his military position a few days ago, and is currently in the marshal's tent.
An Yuan looked at Xi Yan and didn't say anything, he was already in his forties, how rich his experience was? How could he not know that he and Xi Yan were reasonable, but the evil breath in his heart just couldn't come out and couldn't swallow it!
At this time, another young military general on the left was enlivened, he was Liu Jizong, this guy was supposed to go with Yongchang Wang Tuoba Jian to reinforce Da'e Mountain, but at that time he had just returned from Shengle City to spy on the news, and he was exhausted, so he was stayed.
When the whole army of the baggage battalion came out to kill, Liu Jizong was worried that Zhao Junsheng would take the opportunity to attack him, so he came to the marshal, and it was much safer to stay by An Yuan's side than to stay in the camp of the Right Guard.
When Liu Jizong saw An Yuan's expression, he guessed that An Yuan was unwilling, he turned his brain, walked out and hugged his fists and said: "Dashuai, Zhao Junsheng is ambitious, you see that he has trained a baggage battalion so elite, it shows that this person is by no means willing to be ordinary!" This time he wants to kill the handsome with the help of the Rouran people, and next time he will inevitably plan a more vicious way to kill the handsome, this person must not stay, it will be a disaster to stay! The last general thought that this was the best time to kill Zhao Junsheng, if he didn't kill him this time, it would be difficult to kill him in the future! ”
The main Bo stood up and scolded Liu Jizong: "General Liu, don't make trouble, the baggage camp is in the camp next to it, I dare to vouch with my head, they have not taken off their armor at this time, they can be killed at any time, even if we kill Zhao Junsheng, if they don't wait for the news of Zhao Junsheng's safety early tomorrow morning, the entire Jinling camp will be bloody!" ”
Liu Jizong retorted loudly: "The master is too worried, the people of the baggage camp are supporting Zhao Junsheng, but now Zhao Junsheng is in our hands, and there is no other person in the baggage camp who is loyal to Zhao Junsheng and can be the master of the whole power, as long as we kill Zhao Junsheng, the baggage camp will fall into the situation of the dragon without a leader, no matter how authoritative he was during his lifetime, it will be a hundred when he dies, as the saying goes, people go tea and cool!" Even if the emperor left an edict after his death, the successor would not necessarily follow it. We sent people over overnight to contact a few lieutenants, divide and win them over, and come up with enough chips to make them bow down to their orders, which is nothing to the commander! ”
When Yasuhara heard this, his spirits were lifted! That's right, the reason why the baggage battalion came over and forced him by force was nothing more than to let him release Zhao Junsheng and save Zhao Junsheng, they just did their best, but as long as Zhao Junsheng died, the baggage battalion may not be so united.
An Yuan said: "Zhao Junsheng is in the hands of the ancient prison army at this time, I am afraid that he will not agree to kill Zhao Junsheng, this person has no courage!" Looks like we'll have to find something else."
Liu Jizong had long hated Zhao Junsheng, and he couldn't eat his flesh, so he immediately offered a plan and said: "Dashuai, this matter does not need to go through the ancient prison army, Dashuai can directly send some guards with fresh faces to quietly touch over in the middle of the night to kill the guards, and then enter the account to kill Zhao Junsheng!" Even if the ancient prison army investigates afterwards, he can only suspect the marshal at most, will he offend the marshal for the sake of a suspicion? ”
An Yuan was moved, and his eyes flashed fiercely, "Come on, go and pick six fresh-faced personal soldiers and guards to come over to see Ben Shuai!" ”
"Yes, Dashuai!"
Pei Jin rode a horse and carried a food box to the outside of the marshal's line, and was about to enter, when he heard a shout from behind him: "Pei Zhubo, wait!" ”
Pei Jin stopped to take a look, but it was Mulan who rode over, and he saw Mulan carrying a food box in her hand, "Hua Dian will also send food to my family?" ”
"Exactly, let's go together!" Mulan said, and after saying that, she beat her horse and ran into the marshal's line.
The two went to the tent where Zhao Junsheng was being held, and the guards checked their food boxes and put them in.
Lu Xuanbo opened his eyes and saw the two of them walking in, and immediately got up and whispered to Zhao Junsheng, who was closing his eyes and cultivating internal strength: "Dutong, Master Pei Bo and General Hua are here!" ”
Zhao Junsheng slowly collected his strength, saw that the internal force and true qi were incorporated into the dantian, opened his eyes and saw the two of them, got up and said with a smile: "You all took the food?" Have a seat! ”
Hua Mulan put the food box on the table, opened the food box and took out the dishes, and said, "I haven't eaten it yet, let's eat it together!" ”
Pei Jin also took out the food, set up a full table, and put the dishes and chopsticks.
The four of them sat cross-legged on the left, each picking up a bowl and chopsticks to eat.
Lu Xuanbo said while eating at this time: "Young master, now the marshal Xingyuan does not have many troops at all, that is, at most more than a hundred personal soldiers, with your and my martial arts, it is not difficult to break out!" Why is the young master willing to stay here, you must know that the longer you are in the enemy camp, the more dangerous it becomes! ”
Zhao Junsheng said: "What if you break out? As long as I break out, there will be no room for maneuver in this matter, and I will be convicted of plotting to assassinate Yasuhara, and the baggage battalion will also be convicted of mutiny and rebellion. With less than 3,000 men and horses, no rear base area, and no heavy supplies, it can't withstand the encirclement and suppression of all the armies of the imperial court! ”
"But is An Yuan really willing to swallow this evil breath, can he let go of the young master and the baggage camp? In my opinion, not necessarily! ”
Zhao Junsheng smiled and said, "That's all in the future." At present, we must let Yasuhara and Gu Bi make a characterization of this matter, and let them admit that I did not plot to assassinate him, and there was no mutiny and rebellion in the baggage camp! ”
Mulan spoke at this time: "How to do this?" It's useless to let them verbally promise not to pursue it, and if you want Yasuhara to write a letter of commitment, do you think this is possible? ”
Zhao Junsheng took a sip of water and continued to eat, saying while eating: "There is no need for them to make verbal promises, and there is no need for them to write any commitment guarantees, these are unrealistic and useless!" I only need them to make a statement in front of all the soldiers of the Jinling battalion, this matter is a misunderstanding, someone deceived An Yuan and instigated the baggage battalion, so that I can clear the charge of assassination, and it also shows that the baggage battalion is not a mutiny and rebellion, and the only way to characterize this matter is to find someone to take responsibility! ”
Pei Jin was puzzled: "Does Dutong mean that someone should come out to carry the black cauldron?" Who? ”
"Of course it's Yasuhara's people, so it's reasonable to prove that he was deceived by his subordinates!"
Hua Mulan and the others thought about it, as long as someone carried the black cauldron, this matter could be determined, and the imperial court could not crusade against the baggage soldiers on the grounds of mutiny and rebellion, and Zhao Junsheng was not accused of assassinating the boss, so this matter could be calmed down, which was indeed the best way.
But is Yasuhara willing to let his subordinates come out and carry the black cauldron? Hua Mulan didn't know, Lu Xuanbo and Pei Jin didn't know, but this is a direction to work towards.
Late at night, Zhao Junsheng was still sitting cross-legged on the cushion to cultivate the true qi of internal strength, Lu Xuanbo was lying on the blanket and closed his eyes to recuperate, and the camp tent was lit with sandalwood, smoked so that there was not a single mosquito and fly bite.
"Whoosh!" Two sounds of breaking the air came from outside the tent, and a few slight footsteps came into the ears of Lu Xuanbo and Zhao Junsheng.
Lu Xuanbo's closed eyes moved slightly, and Zhao Junsheng seemed to be completely unaware.
In just a few moments, all eight guards outside the tent were cleared, and the bodies were dragged to a dark place to hide.
The curtain was lifted by a long sword, and a group of men in black quickly dodged in.
Lu Xuanbo, who was lying on the ground, didn't know when he was gone, and Zhao Junsheng was still sitting cross-legged in the distance.
"That's him, kill!" A deliberately suppressed voice came out, with an eerie murderous aura.
Four black-clothed people carried long swords and quickly pounced on Zhao Junsheng, Zhao Junsheng suddenly opened his eyes at this time, and the killing machine burst out, his right hand raised to the two black-clothed people on the right, and the two embroidery needles shot out silently, and the two people fell to the ground and never moved after shooting before they could get close to Zhao Junsheng.
"Stab, stab, stab" two sounds came from the left, and a sharp sword flashed with cold light, silently piercing the throats of the two black-clothed men one after another.
"There's an ambush!" One of the two remaining roared in a low voice.
Lu Xuanbo rushed over first without waiting for them to pounce, and the sound of "clanging" resounded non-stop in the camp tent.
The dim light in the tent facilitated Lu Xuanbo's ghostly physical skills, but it was obvious that the remaining two black-clothed men had much higher martial arts, and Lu Xuanbo couldn't solve them in a short time, so he could only fight with all his might.
At this time, there was also the sound of weapons clashing outside the tent, and even the occasional roar, and it was obvious that there were people fighting.
Although Zhao Junsheng closed his eyes at this time, he had already sensed that there were people fighting outside the tent, the martial arts of these two people were obviously very strong, but the other person's body was extremely fast.
"Is someone secretly protecting me?"
Suddenly, the sound of fighting outside the tent disappeared, and Zhao Junsheng sensed that someone had fallen to the ground, and another person was rushing in the distance.
