Chapter 488: The boss returns to his position, and the generals surrender

"Ji Xue, it's you!"

Wang Mang took a deep breath and slowly turned his head, a ray of warmth flashed in his eyes.

After Ji Xue saw Wang Mang, her face was slightly red, very shy, and a pair of smart eyes wanted to say that she was still fascinated by death.

But then she found that the venue was not suitable and she couldn't show her true feelings, so she also took a deep breath, suppressed the restlessness in her heart, and said coldly: "I know that a smart person like you can easily get into trouble so easily." It seems that Ji Xuan and they are happy in vain. ”

Yan Yang saw Ji Xue suddenly appear, and hurriedly blocked in front of Wang Mang, for fear that Ji Xue would kill Wang Mang with invincible martial arts.

"Ji Xue, you don't want to be lawless just by relying on your martial arts. With me waiting, you don't want to hurt Lord Wang's hair, if you know each other, leave as soon as possible. ”

"Hmph..."

Ji Xue took a deep look at Wang Mang, and cast a look at Wang Mang that only Wang Mang could understand, and then snorted coldly, turned around and left, not daring to stay longer.

She was afraid that if she stayed longer, she would not be able to suppress the joy in her heart.

After she separated from Wang Mang from Yumen Pass, she missed Wang Mang very much in her heart. Now I suddenly see it, and I am happy.

"Wang Mang, last time you arrested me, I will always remember this hatred, don't let me find a chance. Otherwise, I'll want you to look good. ”

"You..."

Wang Mang knew why Ji Xue was in a hurry to leave, he sighed and didn't say anything.

"Yan Yang, let's go. Ji Xue doesn't dare to mess around here, don't worry. ”

"Yes, sir!" The four of Yan Yang, together with the three Murong Zhong brought by Wang Mang, firmly protected Wang Mang in the middle, and the security measures were very thoughtful.

After a while, the group arrived at the main city council chamber.

At this moment, the eight main generals who were staying in the council hall had not yet left, and were discussing various defense strategies.

When they saw Yan Yang and the others going and returning, they were a little surprised.

They were about to open their mouths to ask, but then when they saw Wang Mang behind them, they stopped asking again. His eyes widened and he was amazed.

"The king... Lord Wang...."

Zhang Gongqiong was a thief with a weak heart, and some did not dare to face Wang Mang, and stammered when he spoke.

"You've always been nice?" Wang Mang looked at everyone with a smile on his face, greeted them in turn, and said hello: "Since we each led the army to Gansu to help, counting the days, it will be almost five months."

During this time, we have been marching in two places and have not been able to meet each other. Now we can say that we meet for the first time. Of course, from the time your army arrived at Dingxi Pass, I have always paid attention to you. In this battle against the Huns, you contributed a lot of strength and bravery, which made the enemy fearful. After the Xiongnu are completely defeated, I will play the Son of Heaven and show merit to the generals. ”

"The last general will meet Lord Wang!"

The generals had never seen Wang Mang's face before, and now when they saw it, they were a little apprehensive in their hearts. It seemed that the inexplicable aura emanating from Wang Mang's body was oppressing them.

In addition, Wang Mang is the commander of the supreme three armies and is their top boss, so they dare not be careless.

Their situation is a bit like a mouse meeting a cat, and they are naturally restrained.

Although Wang Mang doesn't know any martial arts, he seems to be very sunny and kind. But in the eyes of these high-level leaders, the more Wang Mang is like this, the more terrifying it is.

His appearance is very reassuring in the hearts of the people. It seems that Wang Mang's breath is only oppressive to high-ranking officials and nobles.

"Sin General Liu Zhi has seen Lord Wang, and I hope that Lord Wang will condemn him." Liu Zhi said half-respectfully.

Wang Mang shook his head: "Liu Zhi, you are different from Li Zhong and Pi Tong. Although you are all starry, your heart is firm and unshakable. But Li Zhong and they lack your firmness, lack perseverance, and are not worthy of the identity they deserve.

Eight years ago, I just won two games against Li Zhong in Yingchuan, and then he went on a killing spree and slaughtered the people of Bacheng to vent his anger. From this move, it can be seen that his original pure heart for the people has been covered with dust, and he is not worthy of being a famous general.

You're at fault, but it's not your intention, so you don't have to. I have always treated everyone equally, and I don't care about the identity of others, although you are good friends with Li Zhong and others, I will not use this matter to announce personal vendetta to trouble you. When you defeat the Huns, you will be free, and you can fight me as much as you want. ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang, for not killing!" Liu Zhi said convincingly: "My lord, you are broad-minded, accommodating heaven and earth, you are only eight buckets high, and you are strategizing, and you will not dare to fight with you in the end." After defeating the Xiongnu, I will lead the army back to Zhuzhou, and from then on live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, waiting for the world to be stable. ”

"There's no need to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests." Wang Mang said: "Your ability, everyone has a number in their hearts. No matter what conflicts may occur between us in the future, if you are talented, why don't you show it for the benefit of the people? Although we have different political views and there are many contradictions between you and me, it does not affect us to work together for the people. ”

"My lord, the last general has been taught!"

Wang Mang sits on the top coach's seat, and the major generals sit on both sides below. As for some of the other strategists and generals, they sat at the end of the table.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since I am here, I have something to say. I hope you will be able to listen and discuss with your spirit. ”

"I'll hear you." The generals replied.

"Good!"

Wang Mang nodded, "Let's talk about the first thing first, at the very beginning, I ordered you to arrest all the original subordinate lieutenants, because there are enemy spies among those people. Some of these people are innocent, and some of them are indeed spies. Thinking about it, everyone has almost checked this matter now, and knows which people are the real spies.

Of course, although you have found out, you still have not released those innocent lieutenants. Now, in my capacity as commander-in-chief, I have officially ordered the immediate release of those innocent lieutenants and the reinstatement of the officers. As for those spies, they were all put on death row.

When we return to the imperial capital in triumph, we will escort them back together, and let them build bridges and pave roads with other prisoners, reclaim wasteland, and accumulate merit in exchange for a reduced sentence and atonement for their mistakes.

If any of them is unwilling to exchange merit for a reduced sentence, then they may be immediately beheaded without pardon. This decree cannot be changed and cannot be covered up by any means. If any cover-up is discovered, the sin will be increased by one degree. Ladies and gentlemen, although you all have the support of the great family behind you, now you are under my jurisdiction, so I hope you do not violate this order, otherwise I will kill you. ”

"The last general respects the orders of the lords, and does not dare to bend the law for personal gain to shield them."

"That's fine, then let's move on to the second thing." Wang Mang said: "A few days ago, I sent someone to send an order, telling you to find out the identity of each soldier who died in battle, and then give them a small pension in time. I have set a limit on you to complete this within a month, and those who violate the order will be beheaded.

Third, it is strictly forbidden for officers and men in the army to recruit and recruit strong men from the common people to fill the army, and they are not allowed to do this in any way. Whoever is willing to join the army, let them do what they want. Our soldiers are not to interfere with any of their thoughts. At the same time, all benefits related to attracting the people to join the army will be abolished.

This order was maintained until the Xiongnu were completely defeated. Until the Huns are completely defeated, this order is permanently valid. If a soldier violates this order, he is immediately paid his due salary, and then the soldier is removed and allowed to return home.

If a general violates this order, he will be dismissed from all positions, removed from all positions, removed from the number of generals, never hired, and then let him go home. All in all, I don't allow this to happen again...."
