Chapter 800: Hunt and Kill

"Oh, Wang Yuan, why did you look like this? The beard is unshaven and covered in dust. The pen is www.biquge.info and the eyes are red. What's wrong with you? Xuanzong was startled after seeing Wang Yuan's face clearly, and asked repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, the minister has just rushed to the road for three days and three nights, and arrived in Chengdu an hour ago, and he slept for less than five hours in three days on the road, so his face is sloppy, I hope Your Majesty will not blame the minister for his rudeness." Wang Yuan said in a deep voice.

"No blame, no blame, but why are you in such a hurry? Is it because the war is unfavorable? What happened? Xuanzong said busily.

Wang Yuan smiled and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the battle is going very smoothly, and our army has annihilated four thousand rebel cavalry in the north of the Qinling Mountains, just like cutting melons and vegetables. Your Majesty, don't worry. ”

"Really? That's great. But if that's the case, why do you ...... Coming back in such a hurry? Xuanzong said.

"Because the minister has doubts and wants to face His Majesty, I hope Your Majesty can solve the minister's doubts." Wang Yuan said in a deep voice.

Xuanzong was stunned and smiled: "Puzzle? What doubts do you have? Tell me about it. ”

Wang Yuan said: "Okay, I want to ask Your Majesty, what is the most important thing in my Tang Dynasty now?" ”

Xuanzong thought for a while, and said, "Do you still need me to say this?" The first priority of the imperial court today is to quell the rebellion. That's what you're asking? ”

Wang Yuan nodded and said: "Yes, the minister just wants to ask this, and the minister is relieved to hear His Majesty's clear answer." However, Zechen has a second question, since counterinsurgency is the most important, what should someone do if he deliberately sabotages the counterinsurgency plan and does something unfavorable to counterinsurgency? ”

Xuanzong frowned and said, "I didn't understand what you meant. ”

Wang Yuan said: "Okay, to put it bluntly, what if someone pulls the back legs of the army at the important juncture of the army's counterinsurgency and does something that makes the army may be wiped out." For example, some people delay the grain and grass of the army, resulting in no food in the army, and the situation is difficult, and it is impossible to advance or retreat. Dare to ask Your Majesty, what should such a person do? ”

Wang Yuan's voice fell, and Fang Xuan, who was standing on the corridor behind, changed his face drastically, turned his head and didn't dare to look at Wang Yuan, and kept swallowing and foaming in his mouth.

Xuanzong's eyes widened and said, "Will anyone do such a thing?" ”

Wang Yuan said: "Your Majesty only said, if there is such a person, what should be done?" ”

Xuanzong said coldly: "Then you still need to ask?" Sabotage the counterinsurgency plan should be severely punished. If he is a general in the army, he should be court-martialed. Disposition. If he is not a general in the army, he will be punished as a rebellion against the enemy. No matter what kind of person it is, you must not let it go, and there should be no forgiveness! ”

Wang Yuan nodded slightly and said, "Okay, since Your Majesty said this, the minister will be relieved." The ministers will be dealt with according to His Majesty's words. However, His Majesty blamed the ministers for being rude, and the ministers were about to do it. ”

Wang Yuan's voice fell, he stretched out his hand and drew his long sword from his waist with a 'Canglang', jumped up, and bypassed Xuanzong's side and went up the steps behind.

Xuanzong was startled, Wang Yuan suddenly drew his sword, he thought it was going to be unfavorable to himself, and when he saw Wang Yuan go to Fang Xuan on the corridor behind him, he realized that Wang Yuan was going to kill Fang Xuan.

"Wang Yuan, what are you going to do?" Xuanzong exclaimed in surprise.

"Kill the rebels of the enemy for Your Majesty." Wang Yuan spoke, his footsteps did not stop, and he rushed towards Fang Xuan.

Fang Xuan's soul was scattered, and the moment Wang Yuan drew his sword, he knew that something was going to be bad, and he reacted quickly, and fled with a reaction that was extremely incommensurate with his age. Wang Yuan raised his sword and chased after him, and Fang Xuan shouted in his mouth while running along the corridor in a hurry: "Your Majesty save me, Your Majesty save me." Wang Yuan, are you crazy? Do you dare to commit murder in the presence of Your Majesty? ”

Wang Yuan strode after him, and shouted in his mouth: "If you don't kill your traitorous appearance, won't you be able to bury all my army when you make waves?" You personally promised me to do a good job in supplying the army's grain and grass, but you dared to embezzle the army's grain and grass for other uses, so that my army was in danger of running out of food. If you don't kill this traitor, how can the rebellion be quelled? ”

Fang Xuan's heart was cold, and when Wang Yuan said these few words, it meant that he already knew everything.

"Wang Yuan, you misunderstood, don't be impulsive, listen to your own interpretation to you."

"Misunderstanding? I'm not mistaken about you, today is your time of death. ”

Wang Yuan's feet accelerated, and he instantly chased after Fang Xuan a few steps away. Fang Xuan's soul flew out of the sky, and in a hurry, the dog jumped over the wall, jumped over the corridor under the corridor, and then heard a 'poof', and the whole person fell into the moon-viewing pool. Splashing wildly in the water, he swam to the middle of the pool.

Wang Yuan carried his sword on the shore and slowly followed him in the direction of swimming, and shouted with a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "I want to see if you go ashore, and you will eat my sword when you go ashore." ”

The generalissimo of the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses chased and killed Xiangguo with a sword, and this scene was unprecedented. The surrounding palace maids and attendants were both scared and amused, and they watched one by one in a daze. Xuanzong was anxious in his heart, and shouted loudly: "Don't you want to dissuade Wang Yuan?" What are you doing one by one? ”

The attendants hurriedly approached Wang Yuan, and Wang Yuan waved his sword and shouted: "Whoever dares to stop me, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword." ”

Xuanzong was angry in his heart, but he couldn't get angry. I had to walk along the corridor to the position behind Wang Yuan, leaned over and shouted, "Wang Yuan, I have something to say." What did Fang Xuan do, that you wanted to kill him in front of me? ”

Wang Yuan said coldly: "Didn't Your Majesty hear what I just said?" At the beginning of the army, Fang Xuan promised me to supply the army with all its strength. As a result, this guy actually diverted grain and grass for other purposes, causing our army to cut off food. Your Majesty, there are only three days left for our army at this moment, and if the rebels attack when the food is gone, the army will be completely annihilated. When the time comes, it will be said that it is a counterinsurgency, and I am afraid that the rebels will go straight to Chengdu. ”

Xuanzong was stunned and said, "You mean, Fang Xuan diverted the army's food and salary for other purposes?" Causing the army to be left without food? ”

Wang Yuan said: "Exactly. ”

Xuanzong turned to Fang Xuan, who was fluttering in the pond, and shouted, "Fang Xuan, tell me what is going on?" ”

While trying to keep himself on the water, Fang Xuan shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding." ”

Wang Yuan scolded angrily: "Dare to deny it, I already have conclusive evidence, otherwise I would not have come to the palace to kill you." Come, bring me a bow and arrows, and today I will shoot this traitor and feed it to the king in the water. ”

Wang Yuan's voice fell, and several guards of the Shence Army came out from behind the rockery, and one of them took off his bow and arrow and ran towards Wang Yuan quickly.

Fang Xuan was shocked and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty save me, Your Majesty save me." ”

Xuanzong shouted: "It's not honest, did you do such a thing?" ”

Fang Xuan was forced to be helpless, so he had to shout: "It's true, but it's ...... Some of them are not as he claims. I didn't mean to delay the army's rations, but I was waiting for the next shipment to arrive in the southern state capitals. It did take more than ten days......"

Wang Yuan scolded angrily: "Still denying, I really don't shed tears when I don't see the coffin." The southern state capital arrived with 500,000 stones of grain and grass a few hundred thousand times ago, and my army only used more than 100,000 stones. It's clear that you are using it for other purposes. It seems that if I don't shoot you in a few holes, you won't be telling the truth. ”

Wang Yuan took the bow and arrow in the hand of the guard and was about to shoot the arrow, Xuanzong hurriedly said: "Wait, you have to ask for a reason." ”

Wang Yuan led but did not fire, and aimed his bow and arrow at Fang Xuan in the water. Xuanzong shouted and scolded: "I haven't explained honestly. Is it misappropriated or not? Where is it used? ”

Fang Xuan's hands and feet gradually weakened, he poured a few mouthfuls of water, his body was as heavy as a scale, he knew that if he didn't explain that even if Wang Yuan didn't release the arrow, he would drown here, so he turned his heart sideways and screamed: "Your Majesty...... Confession. Grain and grass ...... There was indeed grain and grass, but King Shou recruited the Hexi Army to quell the rebellion, and there was no food and grass materials, so the minister first allocated it to King Shou to recruit troops. Your Majesty, the ministers are not greedy for these grains and grasses, in short, they are all used to counter the rebellion. His Majesty saved the minister, but the minister couldn't hold on. ”

These words entered his ears, and Xuanzong's heart was bright. I already had some suspicions just now, but now it is even clearer.

That night, King Shou proposed to rebuild the forbidden army in the name of counterinsurgency recruitment, which Xuanzong thought was feasible. Today, Wang Yuan suddenly returned to Chengdu, and Xuanzong's first reaction was that Wang Yuan came because of this matter. Xuanzong had already made up his mind that he would not give in, because he had sufficient reasons to explain this matter. But that night, Xuanzong thought about the problem of food and salary, so he specially asked Li Mao how to solve it. Li Mao said that he must first ensure the military use of the army to quell the rebellion, and the rest will be used to recruit soldiers. He also proposed a plan to collect money and property in exchange for food and soldiers, which made Xuanzong feel that Li Mao had indeed spent a lot of thought, so he agreed to Li Mao's action.

However, now it seems. Li Mao did not do what he promised, but together with Fang Xuan, he embezzled the army's military rations to recruit soldiers. Although the original intention of these two people was to rebuild the forbidden army, the starting point was good, but this matter was obviously inappropriate, you must know that counterinsurgency is the first priority at this time, and Xuanzong is still not confused. Now it's a good thing, according to what Wang Yuan said, the army has almost run out of food and grass, and it is trapped outside the mountain at the moment and cannot advance or retreat.

"Stupid, stupid, I don't know the priorities, and I actually embezzle the food and grass of the army. Li Mao, you have disappointed me so much, and I still have high hopes for you. If Wang Yuan suspects that this matter was instigated by me, it will be even more troublesome. It's just stupid! ”

Xuanzong had already scolded Fang Xuan and Li Mao in his heart, both angry and helpless.
