As soon as the camp gate opened, the Xiliang soldiers poured in in multiple units, and the overall situation was decided.

Cao Yuan and others, who took over the Hedong County soldiers, did not make it too difficult for Zhang Lang, but after letting the soldiers watch him, they converged with Dian Wei and other cavalry who captured Fan Gui, and commanded the Hedong County soldiers to pull out the camp and return to Jiangyi.

Zhai Hao, in accordance with Yan Xing's military order when he came, temporarily led a Xiliang cavalry to be stationed here to prevent the Baibo thieves in Linfen from crossing the river to attack.

···

Cao Yuan and others used the smallest price, almost bloodlessly snatched the military power of Fan Gui and Zhang Lang, and the two battalions of Hedong County soldiers finally returned to the outside of Jiangyi City.

And the previously silent action against Fan and Zhang was also quickly launched.

The crimes committed by Fan Gui and Zhang Lang in collusion with Fan Yong and others before were turned over one after another, and the henchmen and military officials placed by the two in the Hedong County soldiers were also more or less charged with various crimes, and they were detained and questioned one after another, waiting for Yan Xing to make a final decision on them.

At the same time, the military merit check of the Hedong County soldiers was also carried out simultaneously, meritorious service was rewarded, and if there was a fault, punishment was given, the old, weak, sick and disabled, all of them were sand tied, Yan Xing's vigorous and resolute style in the Xiliang Army soon spread to every corner where the Hedong County soldiers were.

It took less than an hour to seize military power, but these things took three full days of civil and military officials under Yan Xing's command.

In the past three days, the officers of the Hedong County soldiers were constantly taken away, and some low-level pawns were successively removed from the camp by Sha. The other Hedong soldiers who stayed behind were also worried all day long, worried that they would also be affected by this turmoil that spread throughout the army.

Fortunately, it only took three days.

Because three days later, it was the day when the military law was enforced against Fan Gui, Zhang Lang and others, and the location was set in the camp of the Hedong County soldiers.

For Yan Xing's decision, Xi Zhicai was also worried, thinking that Zhang Lang fought bravely and won morale, and there might be some remnants of Fan, Zhang and others among the Hedong County soldiers, so it was better to behead the two and a group of henchmen directly in their own camp, and then pass the head to the Hedong County soldiers' barracks to show the public, so that the same deterrent effect could be achieved, and the risk could be avoided.

But this time, Yan Xing did not agree, but decided to execute Fan Gui, Zhang Lang and others in front of the soldiers of Hedong County.

···

Three days later, it was noon

In the barracks of the Hedong County soldiers, Diao Dou Senming, there are crossbowmen on the corner towers on all sides are waiting for them, under the light of the hot sun, there seems to be some more solemn atmosphere in the hot air, as well as some awe-inspiring murderous aura.

At this moment, a large number of men and horses have been driven into the camp, in addition to the two battalions of Hedong County soldiers, there are also a large number of Xiliang soldiers and horses, they are arranged in a team according to the array, and the eyes of the soldiers are in the barracks, which is temporarily rammed with loess.

On the torture platform, rows of criminals who were about to be beheaded were all dressed in thin single clothes, their hands and feet were tightly tied, and they knelt in front of the wooden stakes erected.

It's just that the two of them now look like they have lost the brightness, brilliance and majesty of the clothes and armor of the past, and after Fan Gui was stripped of his armor, he looked even more mediocre among the criminals, and even in the scorching sun, his body was still trembling slightly.

"Sima Fan Gui and Zhang Lang in the original army, together with their henchmen, a total of thirty-one people. In disregard of military law, he stole salt and iron and exchanged with white wave thieves for personal gain, and assigned officials to set up checkpoints along the way, exploiting and robbing the fleeing people's property and goods, killing innocent displaced people without permission, greedy for military supplies and goods, deducting rewards from soldiers, and lying about military information. According to the military law of the Han Dynasty, the evidence of their crimes was conclusive, and they were all sentenced to beheading. Now that the identity has been verified, the law will be enforced and executed immediately! ”

After the sergeant who was convicted of the crime preached, the soldier who was holding a heavy axe and preparing for execution immediately pressed Fan Gui, who was headed by him, on a wooden stake, but he didn't expect that Fan Gui, who had not swallowed rice and was weak in the past few days, was dying, and suddenly burst out with the last trace of strength in his body, and even wanted to struggle, and pulled his dry throat, wanting to scold.

"Liangzhou'er, you dare to kill Naigong, you can't-"

It's a pity that as soon as Fan Gui spoke, he was hit on the back of the head by the executing soldier with the handle of an axe, and hit the stake with a bang, his face was covered with blood, and he groaned a few times in pain, but he couldn't struggle anymore.

Then the heavy axe was raised high and fell heavily, bringing up a sky full of blood flowers, and a head that rolled down.

"Shhh

Many Hedong soldiers couldn't help but take a breath of cold air when they saw Fan Gui's head fall to the ground, although it was noon and the sun was scorching, they were still shocked, and they felt cold on their backs.

The executing soldiers did not care about the inner feelings of the people on the scene, they were ruthless, and after beheading Fan Gui, they were going to execute Zhang Lang.

Zhang Lang was not as scheming as Fan Gui in the past, but at this time, he was much calmer than Fan Gui with a knife and axe, he did not struggle hard, nor did he scold, but as he did when he led the army in the past, he looked in the direction of the Hedong soldiers under the stage, laughed and shouted:

"Lang is going to do it today, and he will know you forever!"

His words were like an ordinary farewell, but they were more inspiring than Fan Gui's scolding, and there was a small commotion among the Hedong soldiers who were still in the queue, and a few of them began to want to instigate the county soldiers to fight against the Xiliang soldiers.

However, the Xiliang soldiers, who had long been wary of this, were soon rushed into the crowd by the soldiers holding the soldiers, and pulled out the Hedong soldiers who tried to make a riot, and the county soldiers who tried to resist were killed on the spot, and the other Hedong soldiers who were in a queue also followed the commotion for a while, but they were quickly suppressed by the new generals and team leaders, and the whole team slowly quieted down again.

Xi Zhicai, who was quietly watching the changes, looked at this scene, turned his head to Yan Xing and said:

"Captain, there are often people in the army who say that Fan is tricky and Daniel Zhang, but now it seems that although Fan Gui has a lot of tricks, it is still Zhang Lang who can really win the hearts of the people!" As soon as this person was about to be executed, there was a commotion among the soldiers of the county, which shows this person's ability to govern the army on weekdays! ”

Yan Xing nodded, but he smiled again and said:

"Although the trapped beast is still fighting, it is in vain. However, he also has a lot of courage, not only is his face fearless, but he also wants to give me some counterattacks before the execution, and the sergeant who riots is punishable. ”

After finishing speaking, Yan Xing straightened his armor, pressed the handle of the knife with his hand, walked out of the crowd, and slowly walked onto the execution platform.

And the people in the audience saw that Captain Dangkou actually came to the stage in person, and at this moment, not only the soldiers of Hedong County were surprised, but even the Xiliang army was shocked.

When the executioners saw Yan Xing coming to power, they couldn't help but temporarily stop the movements in their hands, and quietly waited for Yan Xing's order.

Yan Xing stood on the stage, quietly feeling the attention of the audience, and then he turned around, looked at Zhang Lang who had just shouted goodbye, and said with a smile:

"Zhang Lang, I heard that you are good at governing the army, and you are quite popular on weekdays, and when I saw it today, it was indeed worthy of your reputation, but I guess you also heard it clearly, you and Fan Gui committed many crimes, which are innumerable, so according to the law of the Han army, they were sentenced to beheading. But when you are about to be sentenced, you shouted angrily, do you think that you still have grievances in your heart? ”

Zhang Lang looked fiercely at the burly man with a smile on his face in front of him, it was this Liangzhou who fell from the sky, stepped into the muddy waters of Jiangyi with the momentum of a raptor crossing the river, stirring up a monstrous wave, Fan Yong, Fan Gui, the county temple officials, and Haoqiang's surname, all died and surrendered in the face of his offensive.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly, the other party dared to ask him in public if he had any grievances, naturally he grabbed some ironclad evidence in his hand, and he was not allowed to exonerate him.

He simply stopped paying attention to Yan Xing, who was asking, and directly stuck his side on the rough wooden stake, closed his eyes and waited quietly for death.

Yan Xing looked at Zhang Lang, who ignored him, and he was not annoyed, but bowed to Zhang Lang who was waiting for death with his eyes closed in public, this inexplicable move suddenly made everyone on and off the stage confused.

Why, is the captain actually saluting a military officer who has been beheaded?

Yan Xing could sense the confusion of the many soldiers present at this time, he slowly turned around and faced these many soldiers, among them, there were not only the Sanfuliu militia who had followed him for a long time, but also the Xiliang soldiers who were brave and good at fighting, some of the Northern Army soldiers who were newly transferred to the army, and the Hedong County soldiers who had not yet fully been fully annexed.

He looked at the crowd and said in a loud voice:

"Sima Zhang Lang in the former army, who fought with the white wave thieves in the army, was meritorious, governed the army and appeased the soldiers, and was able to win the hearts of the people. Except for those who incite the hearts of the army, the rest of the people who have the love of the army are not to blame by the captain of this school! ”

"However, the second and third sons wear armor and follow Rong, beg for thieves for the country, and know the military laws of the Han Dynasty! The army has its own laws and regulations, and those who violate military law will be punished according to law and severely punished. The crimes of Fan Gui and Zhang Lang are unforgivable, and Zhang Lang has also silently confessed. The second and third sons should also take this as a warning, there is no violation of military orders! ”

"And just now, the captain of this school, I respect him Zhang Lang, who treats the soldiers well on weekdays and fights bravely, but the military law has no selfish feelings, and it is not allowed to disturb the law and discipline with human desires, so those who are Lang, Jincheng Yan Yanming, those who cut Lang, and the captain of the Han Dangkou are also!"

After Yan Xing finished speaking, many soldiers were solemn, and when they looked at the awe-inspiring Captain Dangkou on the stage, in addition to a little fear, they also had a little more respect.

Zhang Lang, who closed his eyes and waited for death, after the muscles on his face sticking to the stake twitched a few times, he finally couldn't help but didn't speak, and his heart was full of hope, just wanting to die quickly.

In his heart, he finally understood at this moment that he was folded in someone's hands.

Although there was such a small episode, the executioner did not let Zhang Lang wait long, and the execution speed became faster and faster, and the severed heads were like rolling skins, rolling off the stage one after another, and the blood stained the execution table red, and continued to flow, staining a large area of land under the stage.

Finally, together with the heads of the four soldiers who had just stirred up the soldiers, a total of thirty-five heads, were put into their spears and set up before the army as an example.

Under the visual impact of this bloody head, the whole army was shocked, and all the soldiers were solemnly ordered.

And by taking advantage of this prestige, Yan Xing also subsequently issued a reward.

Zhang Lang and Fan Gui are dead, and their troops should also be sent to lead them.

Yan Xing appointed Xu Huang as the Sima of the other department, supplemented by Kui Tong, in addition to commanding the original soldiers and horses of the department, he also led the soldiers and horses of the Fan Gui department.

He also appointed Cao Yuan as the Sima of other departments, supplemented by the tiger head, in addition to commanding the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, he also led the soldiers and horses of Zhang Lang's department.

In addition, Zhai Hao was appointed as the Sima of other departments, supplemented by Meng Tu, and commanded more than 1,000 Xiliang cavalry.

The appointment of the Sima of these three other departments has been completed, and Yan Xing appointed Ma Lin as the Sima in the army, with Wei Xuan as the fake Sima, and the two of them commanded 600 Zhang Shi and a song of soldiers and horses, and Yan Xing was a fake Sima, commanding a song of soldiers and horses, and also leading the rear camp.

Yan Xing himself commanded a total of 500 guards and Feilian cavalry, led by Da Niu, Dian Wei, Yang Feng and others. Military Chinese officials such as Xi Zhicai, Zhou Liang, Zheng Duo, Huang Po and others also had their own rewards. Counting the soldiers who killed thieves and made meritorious contributions, after accounting for their military merits, the rewards in the army were also distributed, and the rewards and punishments were clear, and the morale of the army immediately rose, and the soldiers of Hedong County gradually settled down.

At this point, all the soldiers and horses in Jiangyi are all in the hands of Yan Xing, and the total number of foreign soldiers and county soldiers is more than 6,000 soldiers and horses.

With so many soldiers and horses, the martial artists in Yan Xing's camp were also full of ambition for a while, like Ma Lin, Zhai Hao and others, they actively asked Yan Xing to fight, asking to lead troops across Fenshui, fight back against the Baibo thieves, and recover Linfen and other places.

In the face of the enthusiastic invitation of the warriors and soldiers, although Yan Xing was also happy, but he was not carried away by the victory during this time, he knew that although his current strength had increased greatly, it was a mixed bag, and the soldiers still needed to run in and train before they could enter the battle.

So he temporarily suppressed the request of these soldiers to fight, and instead issued an order, requiring the military officials of all departments to step up the training of soldiers, and after a month, the whole army carried out a colonel of soldiers and horses outside the city of Jiangyi, and the best one could be the vanguard of the army and take the lead in recovering Linfen City.

As a result, Cao, Xu, Ma, Zhai and others, who got this military order, all devoted themselves to the training of soldiers and horses with great interest, and in the following month, Yan Xing was also stepping up arrangements to complete two things.

One thing is the resettlement of some of the displaced people, Yan Xing's current strength is limited, and it is not enough to appease the displaced people on a large scale and implement the establishment of tuntian, but he selects the young and strong among the displaced people, and uses work for relief, so that they can repair the city defense, dredge the canals, and occupy the land abandoned by no one in Jiangyi first, measure the fields, distribute the people's forces, and grab the wheat plant.

These things are cumbersome and important, and they have made a few scribes under Yan Xing's command, such as Zheng Duo and Huang Po, very busy, but fortunately, now Yan Xing's orders are unimpeded in Jiangyi, whether it is a county temple or a big surname Haoqiang, they must act according to the order, so they can be carried out as scheduled.

The second thing was to prepare for the next battle against Bai Bo, Yan Xing learned from Xu Rong about the simple military orders of the Xiliang Army, and then started writing with Xi Zhicai, selecting the best and eliminating the inferior, and solicited the suggestions of other martial arts officials to jointly revise a set of simple and easy "Infantry Battle Orders".
