"Fuck! ****** also Sipin Daotai, the writing is really ugly! ”

Glancing at the military order written by Wu Chaoyue on the bookcase, Shengbao sneered in his heart, "But, it's also a good thing, I can't get out of the city within three days, and Lao Tzu just uses the head of this arrogant little barbarian to stand up!" If a miracle really happens, so that this little barbarian can get out of the city, Lao Tzu, as the commander of the whole army, has to have a share of the credit. If you don't succeed, you won't suffer, it's a good thing! ”

Mei Zizi was thinking, and the corners of Shengbao's mouth couldn't help showing some happy smiles, but at this time, a personal soldier suddenly came outside the tent to report, saying that the Taiping Army sent an envoy with a white flag out of the city to contact and negotiate with the Qing army of Baohuan, the commander of Zhili, who was stationed outside the west gate of Tianjin. Katsuho was a little puzzled when he heard this, so he asked, "What did the long-haired envoy say?" ”

"It's as if he had given a letter to a soldier under the command of Bao Titai." The soldier replied truthfully.

"Please send a letter? Could it be that Longhair wants to surrender? Shengbao once gave birth to such a wonderful fantasy, but soon Shengbao denied this possibility on his own - Xie Zicheng, the magistrate of Tianjin, who had been given to death, explained very clearly before his death that the food in Tianjin was not extraordinary, and at the same time, the Taiping army also had a lot of food and grass with the army, and there were a large number of donkeys and mules to be slaughtered.

It doesn't matter if you can't guess the reason for the Taiping Army's dispatch, although Baohuan, the commander of Zhili, is a first-class member, but because he failed to hold the Hutuo River defense line, he is still guilty of it, and he is relatively obedient to the boss Shengbao. So Shengbao didn't use his brains to calculate and analyze, but just thought about how to get a few more beautiful concubines into the camp to serve him. While patiently waiting for Bao Huan to take the initiative to send the news.

Waiting left and right, it took quite a short time. Bao Huan hadn't sent someone to send a letter from the envoy of the Taiping Army, and Sheng Bao vaguely felt that something was wrong. began to suspect that Bao Huan was also like Dutong Qingqi, who did not take him, the commander with a high background, in his eyes, and instead threw himself into the broad arms of the county prince monk Greenqin. And after this doubt, Shengbao did not hesitate, and simply sent someone to contact Bao Huan directly, asking why Bao Huan did not present the envoy and letter of the Taiping Army to the commander of the whole army?

Sheng Bao soon found out that he had misunderstood Bao Huan, because before his urging messenger came out of the account, the news of Bao Huan's request to see him came from outside the account, and Sheng Bao was relieved. He scolded him for being really procrastinating, and then ordered to summon him. However, to Shengbao's surprise, there was also the new governor of Zhili, Gui Liang, who came to visit him with Bao Huan. Seeing this scene, Shengbao was inevitably even more strange, and hurriedly asked: "Bao Titai, Gui Zhitai, you two are ordered to guard Tianjin Xicheng to prevent the long hair from fleeing west." It's a big responsibility, how can you come here together? Don't leave anyone in the camp? ”

"The marshal forgives the sin, because this matter is relatively big, and the lower officials dare not come alone." Bao Huan does have more respect for Shengbao. Said respectfully: "So after discussing with Gui Zhitai, the lower officials decided to come here to meet you together, so that they can witness each other in front of the emperor in the future." ”

"What kind of big deal? So that both of you must witness to each other? Katsuho asked in surprise.

Bao Huan did not explain. just showed a letter and said respectfully: "Victory Shuai, please take a look." This is what Longhair just sent to the Xiaguan camp, the Longhair Envoy said. This letter was shot into their city with an arrow last night, and their puppet prime minister, Ji Wenyuan, thought it was interesting, so he sent someone to bring it to us. ”

"Bring it on!" Katsuho hurriedly commanded.

"Forgive me, I can't give you this letter, I can only ask you to read it closely." Bao Huan said cautiously.

"Why?" Sheng Bao was taken aback, but Bao Huan and Gui Liang did not answer, their faces were also very serious, and they just invited Sheng Bao to take a closer look from their seats. Sheng Bao Yifa felt that it was not good, so he quickly got up and left, walked to Bao Huan to read the letter carefully, and what made Sheng Bao stunned was that the letter actually wrote that Wu Chaoyue would be beheaded by him if he could not break through the Taiping army out of the city within three days, and at the same time, the informant also suggested that the Taiping army would go out of the city for three days to help Sheng Bao cut off Wu Chaoyue's head, and the handwriting was very familiar to Sheng Bao, and it seemed to be an acquaintance's handwriting.

Then, of course, Shengbao was furious, "Who is so bold as to dare to leak such an important military aircraft event to Changmao?" How many heads does he have?! Check, immediately check the handwriting for Ben Shuai to see who wrote it! ”

Bao Huan and Gui Liang didn't say a word, just nervously looked at Sheng Bao's expression, Sheng Bao noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly looked at the familiar handwriting carefully When he recalled carefully, Sheng Bao suddenly woke up - that handwriting turned out to be his own handwriting!

His head was dizzy, Sheng Bao subconsciously wanted to snatch the letter and read it carefully, but Bao Huan hurriedly retreated, and Gui Liang next to him also quickly stretched out his hand to stop him, reminding: "Dashuai, for the sake of prudence, please don't fall into the suspicion of destroying evidence or dropping the bag." ”

"Gui Zhitai, Bao Titai, do you also suspect that I did it?" Katsuho roared angrily, "Am I crazy or stupid to take the initiative to leak such important military information to Longhair?" ”

"Dashuai is angry, we don't suspect you." Gui Liang shook his head and took the initiative to say: "Actually, after carefully comparing your handwriting with the security desk, I found that on this letter, there is no habit of you hiding ink in the book, and I suspect that someone forged and framed you. But this matter is too big, and as court officials, we have a duty, so we must be cautious! ”

"Yes, there is no hidden ink, which is enough to prove that this is a forgery!" Sheng Bao nodded hurriedly, and took the initiative to say his private secret, "In order to prevent others from forging my letters, Ben Shuai is used to hiding ink at the end of the fifth word in the first row to prevent counterfeiting. As long as this epistle does not have this secret mark, it is enough to prove that it is a forgery! ”

"The marshal is right." Gui Liang nodded, and said: "But the matter is big, and the lower officials and others have to act carefully, and the lower officials and the security table must jointly report this matter to the emperor truthfully." Also, Xia Guan had already sent someone to contact Prince Zai and the monk and ask them to come here too, and they would be there soon. ”

Shengbao was indeed wronged, and he was not afraid of crooked shadows, of course, he was not afraid that Gui Liang and Bao Huan would truthfully report this matter to Emperor Xianfeng. Not afraid that the monk Grinqin and Zaiyuan also know about this. Confident, Shengbao also quickly analyzed who was most likely to forge this letter to frame him. And then soon, of course, a familiar figure immediately came to Katsubo's mind - the bastard. It's not a day or two to peek into the position of the coach of Shengbao!

The most suspicious bastard soon came to the Katsubo camp with Zaiyuan, and after seeing the whistleblower letter written in Katsubo's handwriting, Zaiyuan was of course taken aback and roared angrily, but the bastard's face flashed with joy - the long-watched boss throne was already beckoning to him, and he couldn't help that bastard not to be ecstatic. Then, although the bastard tried to suppress the ecstasy in his heart, he still couldn't wait to shout, "Lord Zai." This is a thief! This is rebellion! This matter must be investigated, find out who wrote this whistleblower letter, and arrest him with a thousand cuts! Hack to death with a knife! ”

Hearing this, Shengbao's face was of course how ugly and ugly it was, and he was suspicious of the bastard monk Greenqin. But Zaiyuan nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, this matter has to be investigated to the end, adults, take a look." Does anyone know the handwriting on this letter? ”

Gui Liang and Bao Huan were silent, Monk Greenqin, who gloated to the extreme, smiled and did not speak, and Shengbao, who had a gloomy face, took the initiative to confess and said, "Lord Wang." Don't check it, it's my handwriting, someone forged my handwriting to write this letter to frame me. That's why Gui Zhitai and Bao Ti Tai invite you to be a witness. ”

"Huh?!" Jaegaki screamed in surprise, his eyes barely popping out. Gui Liang and Bao Huan nodded silently, and whispered that they were because they found the handwriting of the whistleblower letter from Shengbao. That's why I asked the ******** Zaiyuan to be a witness.

"Lord Wang, please believe me." Shengbao suddenly knelt down on Zaiyuan's knees, kowtowed and said: "The slave is wronged, and the slave doesn't like Wu Chaoyue's arrogance, but the slave is not so shameless as to take the initiative to tell Changmao!" This is someone deliberately framing the slaves, and ask the prince to administer justice for the slaves! ”

"Lord Wang, the minion also thinks that the victory is not enough to do this." Gui Liang also said: "Also, the slave and Bao Titai carefully compared the handwriting, and found that although the handwriting of this letter is almost exactly the same as that of Sheng Dashuai's handwriting, there are still some flaws, and it is very likely that someone deliberately forged and framed Sheng Dashuai!" ”

If this whistleblower letter was really forged by Monk Greenqin, then our monk and prince will definitely remain silent and stay out of the matter in order to avoid suspicion. But everyone knows that this whistleblower letter framing Shengbao was not written by our monk and prince, and the same person is not afraid of crooked shadows, so of course our monk and prince will not miss such a good opportunity to ascend to the throne, and immediately reminded Zaiyuan: "Lord Zai, who wrote this letter, of course, we have to find out." However, for such a major matter, we must immediately report it to the emperor and ask the emperor to make a decision to see whether another Qincha will be sent to investigate thoroughly, or who will be responsible for the investigation. ”

Glancing at the gloating monk Grinqin, Sheng Bao couldn't bear it, and said with a sneer: "Monk Wang, if you want to investigate this case, just say it, why hide it?" This matter involves me, I have to avoid suspicion, but I am standing up straight, you want to use this case to kill me, I'm afraid it's not so easy! ”

"Bold!" Monk Lingqin was furious and roared: "Shengbao, you are a minion, and you dare to talk to this king like this? ”

"Yes, you are indeed the king of the county, my master!" Sheng Bao, who had long been extremely dissatisfied with Monk Greenqin, simply jumped up, waved his arms and roared: "But don't forget, I am the minister appointed by the emperor himself, and I am ordered to control the armies on the front line!" Now that you are my subordinate, you must be at my command! Don't think that if you forge this letter, you can overthrow me and kill me and sit on the throne of the boss! If the emperor doesn't remove my mission for a day, I will have the power to restrain you for a day! ”

"Shengbao! You ......, you ....... Monk Lingqin finally woke up, pointed at Shengbao and trembled with anger, and roared: "Shengbao, you dare to slander this king, saying that this king forged this letter to frame you?!" ”

"Monk Greenqin, you dare to say that it's not you!"

Shengbao's eyes were red, and his fingers were almost on the nose of Monk Lingqin, and he roared: "Since you led the army out on the expedition, have you not been peeking at my position at that moment?" Don't listen to the command, don't be restrained, ask you to go south and join forces with me to trap Changmao in Shenzhou, and you will stay in Zhuozhou without moving, resulting in Changmao's successful breakthrough. Ben Shuai fell short! The long hair flowed eastward, and the grain and grass were cut off. Lead the whole army to pursue all the way hungry, and you still don't move in Zhuozhou! Why. It's not because you're a prince that you think I, the well-born coach, is not qualified to restrain you, and you want to see my jokes and replace me! Tianjin has fallen, and your monk Greenqin is the real culprit! ”

Between the long-suppressed anger eruptions, Shengbao's movements were naturally uncontrollable, and his fingers finally inevitably clicked on Seng Greenqin's nose, and Monk Greenqin, who was also in a rage, opened Shengbao, and Shengbao was even more angry. actually raised his leg and kicked Monk Greenqin in the stomach, Monk Greenqin immediately counterattacked after a kick, pounced and fought desperately with Shengbao directly, punching and kicking between the generals, pulling braids and smashing the bridge of the nose, fighting more fiercely than on the battlefield, and also causing Zaiyuan and Baohuan and others to suffer a lot of punches and kicks between dissuasion.

In the end, it was Zaiyuan who put the prince on the shelf and ordered the guards in the tent to do it. This finally pulled Seng Lingqin and Shengbao apart, but even so, Shengbao, whose nose had been smashed out of blood, still roared angrily, "Monk Greenqin." Don't think I don't know, you have sent people into my camp several times to secretly investigate my every move. You want to grab me and replace me! (Historical facts.) You don't daydream, I'm not afraid of the shadows. No matter what kind of tricks you use, you don't want to sit in the coach's position! ”

"Katsubo. You dog minion! Monk Greenqin, whose teeth were all broken, also roared, "You slandered this king for forging a false letter and deceiving the master, and this king wants to join you!" Join you! And you don't die! ”

"Enough! King Duben shut up! Zaiyuan finally couldn't bear it anymore, raised his hand and gave Monk Lingqin and Shengbao a slap in the face, and roared: "The enemy is now!" You don't want to break the city and suppress the thieves, but here you are causing infighting, fighting in the nest, and do you still take the court in your eyes? Shut up to this king, this king will immediately write an excerpt to the emperor to report the matter here, and the two of you will wait for this king to listen to it! ”

He also rewarded Shengbao and Seng Lingqin with a heavy foot, and Zaiyuan really immediately took up a pen and made a book, reported what happened here to Emperor Xianfeng, and sent it to the capital on a fast horse together with the forged letter. Then Zaiyuan forced Seng Lingqin to return to the camp immediately, and at the same time decided to personally sit in the big tent of the Chinese army, personally monitor Shengbao's every move, and prevent Shengbao from doing stupid things in his rage. Fortunately, Zaiyuan's title is higher than anyone else's, and his handling of things is quite fair, so Seng Lingqin and Shengbao didn't say much, but they formed an enmity with each other, and they completely broke off diplomatic relations.

It was also after Shengbao completely calmed down that Zaiyuan remembered that Wu Chaoyue should also know about it, and hurriedly sent someone to call Wu Chaoyue to the Beicang camp and told Wu Chaoyue in person that someone had already reported to the Taiping Army. And Wu Chaoyue was not surprised when he heard it, on the contrary, he said to Zaiyuan with a wry smile: "Thank you Lord Wang, but it doesn't matter, Xiaguan is used to it, when he was in Jiangning, Xiaguan was pulled countless times, and before coming to Tianjin Qinwang this time, Xiaguan was also mentally prepared to be pulled back." ”

Hearing Su Shun say something about Wu Chaoyue's situation in Jiangning, Zaiyuan sighed and said: "Weiting, don't worry, who told Changmao the secret, this king will definitely ask the emperor and the court to find out and give you justice." ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang." Wu Chaoyue thanked him again, then bowed down from his seat, and said to Zaiyuan in front of Shengbao: "But Lord Wang, the lower officials dare to use the head of the neck to vouch, and the person who informs the long-haired man will never be Shengdashuai!" Victory is really innocent! ”

Sheng Bao raised his head in surprise, and several banner generals present also looked at Wu Chaoyue in surprise, Wu Chaoyue looked calm, and said to Zaiyuan: "Lord Wang, please think about it carefully, Xia Guan and Sheng Dashuai had no enmity the day before yesterday, and there was no injustice recently, why did he want to harm Xia Guan so much?" Even if Marshal Sheng really looks at the subordinate and wants to clean up the subordinate official, it is not a matter of a sentence to want to put on small shoes for the subordinate during the march and battle? Why would you use your own handwriting to tell Longhair? Therefore, the lower officials decided that this matter must have been done by others, and it had nothing to do with Sheng Dashuai! ”

Sheng Bao's lips trembled a little, and Zai Yuan nodded and said, "I didn't expect you to be so open-minded in Weiting, yes, what you said is very reasonable, and this king also believes that Sheng Dashuai is innocent and wronged in this matter." ”

"And." Wu Chaoyue said respectfully: "Lord, after the emperor knows these things, he will definitely be angry when he thinks about it, and maybe he will have the heart to change the commander." If that's the case, please also remind the emperor that changing the commander in battle is a taboo for soldiers, and the only way to do this is to let the winning marshal make meritorious service and continue to serve as the commander. ”

Hearing this, there were tears in Shengbao's eyes, and Zaiyuan nodded again and again, deeply impressed by Wu Chaoyue's words, and also appreciated Wu Chaoyue's deep understanding of righteousness, and everything was focused on the wild boar skin family's country. After sighing again, Zaiyuan also turned to Shengbao and said: "Shengshuai, you have heard what Comfort Pavilion said, and you also know the situation, Changmao already knows that Comfort Pavilion has made a military order to capture the city within three days, and he will definitely insist on going out of the city and forcing you to execute Comfort Pavilion." The matter has come to this point, should you return the military order to the comfort pavilion and let him find another way to break through the long hair and get out of the city? ”

Sheng Bao nodded quickly, and hurriedly found Wu Chaoyue's military order from the bookcase, personally held it in front of Wu Chaoyue, and said in a somewhat hoarse voice: "Comfort Ting, Changmao already knows about our military aircraft, and this military order of yours, this marshal allows you to invalidate it." ”

Looking at the military order and thinking for a moment, Wu Chaoyue said thank you, took the military order and really tore it up in public. But after tearing up this military order, Wu Chaoyue asked the guards in the tent for pen, ink, paper and inkstone, re-wrote a military order in front of Shengbao and Zaiyuan, held it in both hands and handed it to Shengbao, and said respectfully: "Dashuai, Xiaguan Wu Chaoyue, please order tomorrow to attack Changmao out of the city!" Within one day, if the lower official can't take down the long hair and go out of the city, he will beg to be beheaded! ”

"One day?!" Zaiyuan, Shengbao and the bannermen generals present all screamed in shock, and then even Shengbao exclaimed: "Weiting, are you crazy? Long Mao obviously knows that you have already made a military order, and you still have to put a burden on yourself, and take the military order out of the city in one day? ”

"Dashuai, Lord Zai, please rest assured!" Wu Chaoyue said viciously: "Long Mao is so divided with our army generals, and the scum in our army has reported to Long Mao again, in a vain attempt to harm my life!" When my soldiers know this, they will all be filled with righteous indignation and be unstoppable, not only will the morale of the army not be affected, but on the contrary, they will vent their anger on Changmao! Therefore, Xia Guan can guarantee that within tomorrow, Xia Guan will break his long hair and leave the city! ”

After that, Wu Chaoyue sent the military order to Shengbao again, and said loudly: "Marshal, the subordinate Wu Chaoyue please order to fight!" Within tomorrow, if you don't break your long hair, you will go out of the city and beg for beheading! ”

Staring at Wu Chaoyue's expression for a long time, seeing Wu Chaoyue's serious expression and unshakable will, Shengbao hesitated for a long time, and finally took Wu Chaoyue's military order with both hands, and then turned to the people in the tent and shouted: "Tomin'a, Xilinghe, Shanlu listen to the order!" Tomorrow, you will lead 4,000 elite soldiers to assist Lord Wu in attacking Changmao out of the city! Remember to Ben Shuai, and also tell your soldiers that Ben Shuai will come to the front line tomorrow to supervise the battle! If there is a step back, cut it immediately! ”

"Pierce." The three generals agreed together, but only Tuo Ming'a's voice was a little firmer, and Xilinghe and Shanlu, who had been taken off by Shengbao, were purely perfunctory, and they were a little worried when they thought of the Taiping Army's strong exit from the city.

Seeing that Shengbao came up with such an attitude, Wu Chaoyue of course hurriedly thanked Shengbao, and Shengbao patted Wu Chaoyue's shoulder and said, "Comfort Ting, you must accept the military order, don't embarrass me." Tomorrow's big battle is up to you. ”

"Please rest assured, the lower official will not embarrass you." Wu Chaoyue replied calmly. (To be continued.) )
