"Cai Cong, this little brute really dares, General Ben must slaughter him with his own hands."

Hou Junji lay on the ground and roared, climbed onto the willow leaf boat on the boat with difficulty, put it on the river with a rope, and several soldiers rowed the willow leaf boat quickly, fortunately there were not many people on the boat, otherwise it would be impossible to say how many people would die!

Looking at the whirlpools on the river one after another, Hou Junji had to retreat again and again, and finally watched the entire big boat sink to the bottom of the river.

"Yo...... Isn't this General Hou? Why is it so shabby to take the willow leaf boat? Cai Cong stood on the bow of the boat and said in a strange manner, his expression was simply angry.

"Cai Cong, you bastard, the old man killed you!" Hou Junji pointed the knife at Cai Cong and screamed hideously, his whole body was soaked and extremely embarrassed, and his heart rose with murderous intent.

Zra, Zra, Zra......

Before Hou Junji finished speaking, the soldiers on the big ship all aimed their bows and arrows at him, and the cold light of the forest made people's hands and feet stiff.

"Hou Junji, you can talk nonsense when you are frightened, but this time, if there is a next time, it will make you pierce your heart. The river ahead was unblocked, and the whole army was ordered to advance at full speed. ”

Cai Cong looked at Hou Junji and said coldly, he has more than 20 big boats, full of soldiers, and Hou Junji's soldiers are dispatched, so naturally they will not be brought into Chang'an, otherwise they will not be bullied by Cai Cong like this.

"Give me an edict to Luoyang Thorn Shi, and ask him to send river workers to help salvage the sunken ship, and be sure to get all the things in the boat back."

"Subordinates obey." Hou Junji's subordinates immediately replied, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask, "Is this the matter of the general?" You are fighting with Your Majesty in the north and south, you are a duke in terms of title, and he Cai Cong is just a county marquis, he is really too deceitful. ”

"Leave it at that? Although General Ben is easy-going, he is not at the mercy of others, you salvage the shipwreck here, Ben will take the first step and go to Chang'an to unite the dignitaries, which must make Cai Cong pay a tragic price. ”

Hou Junji's eyes were full of anger, how could a person like him be easy-going? What's more, Cai Cong sank all the treasures he looted in Liaodong into the river, and now he calls someone to salvage them, and he will inevitably be known by Luoyang Thorn History, he can't hide this treasure, and he must hand it over to the treasury, which makes him hate Cai Cong to the bone marrow.

"Lord Hou......"

On Cai Cong's battleship, Xu Jie wanted to speak and stopped, as a bystander, he could clearly see how reckless Cai Cong's behavior was, these behaviors made him tremble, Cai Cong continued like this, sooner or later he would be rejected by the imperial court, and he would kill himself.

"Haha...... If there's anything you want to ask, just ask! After teaching Hou Junji a lesson, my mood is much more comfortable. ”

Cai Cong no longer lost the gloom he had just now, and said to Xu Jie heartily, and even the fishy river breeze became smelly.

"Master Hou, my subordinates don't understand very much, why did you do this, ramming those boats is at most impeached by the imperial history, not to mention that you have sent someone to pay for the sinking boats. Why can't you get along with Hou Junji, he is His Majesty's confidant and favorite general, I heard that when Xuanwumen was in the past, Hou Junji also contributed a lot, you did this, not only offended Hou Junji, but also fell into His Majesty's face.

Although Your Majesty didn't say it, but a few years ago, when you cleaned up Zhang Liang and your eldest grandson Anye, Your Majesty must have felt very uncomfortable, but you didn't say it all the time, aren't you afraid of Your Majesty's anger? ”

"Afraid, of course afraid, how can you not be afraid? But don't forget, this time against Goguryeo, Ben Hou is the commander, and he Hou Junji is just an auxiliary, who gave him the courage to disobey the military order? Don't forget, the tiger talisman was not returned to Your Majesty, Ben Hou is still the commander of the three armies, he does not respect military orders, Ben Hou did not behead him, it is already merciful. ”

Cai Cong said with a smile, if he handed over the tiger talisman, at most, he would accidentally rub Hou Junji's boat, and there would be an accident when the ship was out of control, and he would never dare to hit it directly like this.

"But even so, it's a duke! You can't afford to offend a duke by doing this, right? ”

Xu Jie said with annoyance, if it goes on like this, Cai Cong will sooner or later have enemies in Chang'an, which is not a good thing.

"Others may not be able to draw it, but this Hou Junji...... It's not a good thing, this time we killed the entire city of Pyongyang, Hou Junji captured the scenery of several cities, all of them were robbed by us, he is narrow-minded, he has long hated me to the bones, even if there is no today's thing, he will not be able to get along with me, so why give him a good face? ”

"This ...... This Hou Jun is dignified, and he is not the kind of person who is cautious, right? Xu Jie said in disbelief, Hou Junji has a good appearance and can fight, and his image in the hearts of the people is still very good.

"Hehe, you look at people are too superficial, Ben Hou looks harmless to humans and animals? Have I killed fewer people? ”

Cai Cong said and put on a harmless smile, Xu Jie shuddered, Cai Cong was pink, his face was full of collagen, and he didn't know how many girls he would charm in a few years.

But such a young man, not to mention the fire that killed more than 100,000 people in Liaodong, is the people who have been executed by him in Hedong and Shandong in the past few years, and they can all add up to a county seat.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that what Cai Cong said seemed to be right, maybe Hou Junji was not 84 and was a generous person.

"Hearing you say this, my subordinates suddenly feel that what you said is right, but your subordinates are too superficial, and what you say in the future, your subordinates will do it."

"Don't show your loyalty here, do you dare not listen to what I say now?"

"How dare your subordinates! Don't say that military law is like a mountain, it's convenient. It's Dongzhu and my father and mother, I'm afraid they'll kill me first. ”

"Okay, don't show your family here. Didn't anyone come from Chang'an? ”

"Yes, it's too unreasonable, we have already reported the return date, no matter what, the imperial court should send someone to meet us, but in two hours we will be in Chang'an, and the imperial court has not sent anyone to explain what kind of ceremony to arrange to welcome us. You're such a man."

Xu Jie said solemnly, he had sent people to Chang'an early, and the people he sent had returned. The officials of the Ministry of Rites who should have been sent from Chang'an have not heard from them so far. It can't be drowned in the river, right? Xu Jie thought maliciously.

"In that case, send men to the docks at once, and order the stewards to empty the docks, and if there is no one to meet them, we will meet ourselves ourselves."

"But what if there is a ceremony to greet us at the imperial court? It's not good to have a conflict! ”

"That's their business, we haven't seen any officials from the Ministry of Rites, have we? Let the people at the dock prepare pigs, cattle and sheep, as well as vegetables and fruits, and treat the three armies at the dock today. ”

Cai Cong said with resentment, after the founding of the country, he was probably the first army to return to the dynasty and no one greeted him, and he was also an army that won the battle.

"Subordinates obey!" Xu Jie's eyes are red, who doesn't feel wronged? The battle with his head and his life was only ignored in the end. Thinking of those comrades who died in Liaodong, his nose was even more sore.

"If you want to cry, go down and cry, don't pretend to be cowardly in front of Lao Tzu." Cai Cong pointed to the stairs and shouted, but he choked up and looked up at the sky, not letting anyone see his face.
