Of course, Shi Heng agreed to Cao Jixiang not only because he completely believed the other party's words, and felt that he could indeed get a lot of benefits without taking any risks and doing anything in this conspiracy, but he was not naïve enough to believe such words.

He knew very well that Cao Jixiang's position of coming to him to seek mutual help was true, but other than that, the other party must have hidden some thoughts that he hadn't fully said. However, he is not afraid that the other party will really harm him, after all, Jingying is now in hand, does the other party really dare to turn his face and not admit it after the matter is completed?

Shi Heng knew that once there was a real change in the palace, Cao Jixiang really succeeded in making Zhu Qizhen regain the throne, and if the emperor wanted to regain power, he still needed a capital general like himself who held military power to help suppress the ministers, and at that time, his advantage as a military general would be reflected again.

And this is the main point that Shi Heng focuses on. As long as he takes the opportunity to rise up when the new monarch's throne is not stable, then with the military power in his hands and the merits of support, he can completely turn over in the imperial court, and even if he does not return to the north, he can also cover the sky in Beijing. Any Manchu civil official, what Lu Jinjin guard, at that time, will bow down to him, let himself be killed.

During these days, Shi Heng's grievances in his heart are needless to mention, he was constantly attacked and impeached by the ministers, and was monitored and watched by Jinyi guards all day long, even if he was in the barracks, his anger did not disappear. Now that he has such a good opportunity to completely reverse the situation and get rid of all those opponents, Shi Heng naturally can't let it go easily.

After seeing Cao Jixiang leave quietly, Shi Heng let out a long sigh of relief, and then he should plan carefully, and what he should do after they get into trouble. Although the other party only asks him to stand still when something happens, when something really happens, there are some things that should still be done-

For example, take this opportunity to send troops to Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Division to remove this thorn in the eye; Another example is to drive the soldiers and horses to the palace as soon as possible, so as to completely gather the power to control the government into their own hands.

However, the most crucial point for these things to be completely accomplished is to be able to control all the 100,000 troops in Jingying, so that they can obey their own words. And to do this, it is obviously not enough for Shi Heng alone, he also has to rely on the generals below, and he needs their absolute loyalty.

After thinking about this, he immediately shouted outside: "Come on, go and call me a few generals, Shi Biao, Zhang Qing, and Feng Tian, and say that Ben Shuai has something important to discuss." The people he named were either his old subordinates, or they were the ones who followed him from Datong to Beijing before, and they were the most loyal to him in this army anyway.

Shi Heng's plan was to let these people win over the generals under him, and promise them enough benefits to make the generals in the Beijing camp and even the officers at the next level completely obey his command. In this way, he will be able to completely control the military strength of the three major battalions of the entire Beijing Division, and thus achieve his wish.

After a while, several generals hurried to his big tent, and many people were looking forward to it, thinking that Shi Heng was going to give them some benefits - these days, in order to buy the hearts of the army, Shi Hou Ye did not lack of bleeding and gave these subordinates enough benefits.

But as a result, they saw Shi Heng with a somewhat gloomy face, because among the generals who were named and rushed over, there was actually one missing the most important person - Shi Biao! As Shi Heng's nephew, he has an outstanding martial arts, but he relies on his right-hand man the most. But as a result, he was supposed to be the first to arrive, but he didn't show up for a long time.

After waiting for a while, a soldier who had gone to inquire rushed to report: "Marshal, General Shi left the camp at noon today, and he has not come back yet." ”

"Hmph, as a general in the army, he actually left his post without permission, he is really bold! Pass on my military order, as soon as Shi Biao comes back, let him tie himself up and admit his mistake to Ben Shuai. I have just made a military rule, and he dares to destroy it at will, can he really ignore military law when he has made some merits? Shi Heng gave the order in annoyance, and then his face softened slightly, and he waved at the other people, asking them to come and listen to his orders.

When he finished speaking, these subordinates showed embarrassment on their faces: "Dashuai, this is not easy to do." The three major battalions of our Beijing Division have no less than three or four hundred officers above the general level, and it is too difficult to take them all for our own use. It's not just money, it's some people who are upright, and it's counterproductive to do that......"

"Ben Shuai knows that this matter is difficult to do, but no matter how difficult it is, he must do it. No matter how much it costs, as long as they open their mouths, Ben Shuai will definitely be satisfied. As for those who don't love money, you can check them again to see what they like and satisfy them. As long as Ben Shuai has one result, within half a month, I will make the three major battalions all obey my order alone! Shi Heng didn't give them a chance to defend at all, and directly gave the order.

The generals looked at each other for a long time, and finally nodded in response. They have long become Shi Heng's henchmen, and they will be both prosperous and lose with him, so even if this request sounds very unreasonable and difficult to achieve, they must do it with all their hearts.

The only advantage is that they don't have to take out the money they used to buy the hearts of the army, on the contrary, they can even get a large sum of money from it. And in this process, even if Shi Dashuai really sees some clues, he is afraid that he will not care, this is really a rare opportunity for the generals of the Beijing camp to hold money.

After finalizing some details with his subordinates and deciding who to start with, Shi Heng sent everyone away. At this time, the sky was completely dark.

As soon as a personal soldier brought dinner to Shi Heng, the guards guarding the door came over to report: "Marshal, General Shi is outside asking to see you." ”

"Hey, he's really here, tell him to come in and meet me!" When Shi Heng heard this, his face sank, and he slapped his chopsticks on the tray hard.

Soon, Shi Biao strode into the barracks with a guilty face, first hugged his fists and gave Shi Heng a military salute, and then said: "Shuai, the last general went out because of some things, I don't know if you have something important to find me, and I hope to forgive you." Actually, I ......"

"Hmph, you've only been in the capital for a few days, and you've actually lost all the habits you developed in the north? Do you really think you're here to enjoy the blessings in the capital? Seeing that his nephew did not tie himself up as he had just ordered, let alone show a sincere and frightened appearance, this made Shi Heng even more annoyed. didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, so he started to reprimand with a face: "Don't think that you can ignore military discipline because you have made some small contributions before." Do you know that this is the Beijing camp and is a role model for the officials and soldiers in the world? If everyone is like you who disregard military discipline and leave the camp without authorization, how can I, the chief general, be convinced, and how can I command the three armies? ”

Shi Heng's stormy rebuke made Shi Biao stunned for a moment, he really couldn't understand why his uncle would make such a big fuss about such a trivial matter! In the past, at the same time, I didn't leave the business to do private things, why did my reaction become so motivating this time?

What's more, today's matter is really hard to say that it is a private matter, and he couldn't help but speak again with some grievances in his heart: "Uncle, listen to me, I went out of the camp today because Sister Li was there to ......."

"Shut up!" Seeing that he was still quibbling, Shi Heng was completely furious, and immediately slapped the table and shouted: "This is the military camp, Lao Tzu is your boss, there is no uncle!" You said, I don't know what you've done in the capital during this time? actually learned that people raised women outside, look at what the hell you have become now, where is there still a little bit of majestic appearance as a general? My Beijing camp is the elite of the Ming army, how can I raise an idler like you! Someone—"

With his command, four of his own soldiers quickly flashed in, waiting for his orders. Shi Biao, on the other hand, was stunned and completely stunned. He really didn't expect his uncle to be so angry today, and it seemed that he wouldn't stop there.

Sure enough, I only heard Shi Heng shouting: "Drag him outside for me, and beat eighty military sticks in public to set an example." I want to let this battalion of soldiers know that under my Shi Heng, he has to obey military orders, and as long as he dares to break the rules, he will be severely punished, no matter what his identity is, how much credit he has made is average! ”

Several people present were stunned again, but after seeing Shi Heng's gloomy face, several pro-soldiers did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly said offended to Shi Biao, then pulled him up and walked out. It wasn't until he was taken to the door of the barracks that Shi Biao woke up suddenly and begged for mercy loudly: "Dashuai, the last general knows that he is wrong, you can spare me this time, I don't dare to ...... anymore."

But Shi Heng inside was not moved at all, but waved his hand again and again with a straight face: "Pull him out for me, beat him hard, if I find out that you have left your strength, don't blame Ben Shuai for letting you share the same crime with him!" ”

When several of the soldiers heard this, they didn't dare to hesitate at all, and immediately took Shi Biao out of the barracks, and then tied him to a shelf in an open space outside, took out a wooden staff with the thickness of his arm, took off his armor, and crackled the punishment of the spine cane.

This torture soon attracted a group of soldiers in the nearby military camp. When they knew that it was Shi Heng's cronies and nephew General Shi Biao who was being beaten, everyone's faces became a little delicate.

And Shi Heng, who was in the barracks, hooked the corners of his mouth at this time, revealing a smug smile. In fact, most of the annoyance he showed just now was acted, in order to invite the military to buy. If you blame Shi Biao for yourself, you will inevitably give a clear reward and punishment to the Beijing camp, regardless of personal feelings, only a good impression of right and wrong, so that you can get the support of many soldiers.

In his opinion, this is a very cost-effective deal, Shi Biao is his nephew, and he doesn't have to worry too much about suffering some hardships and being wronged. But he could never have imagined what a huge mistake he had made this time......
