Chapter 461: The Battle of Xinzhou 8
Ye Ji walked slowly towards Kong Geng with steady steps, and without saying anything, Kong Geng felt a huge momentum roaring towards him, forcing himself to stand up, taking a few steps backwards, before he felt a little better, and then realized something, hurriedly walked a few steps forward, and pretended to be enthusiastic and said: "Mr. Ye came from afar, but he didn't meet him from afar, and he still hopes to atone for his sins." Ye Ji smiled faintly, like a layer of terrifying waves directly smashed into the deepest part of Kong Geng's heart, Kong Geng was stunned, but Ye Ji stretched out his hand and said: "General Kong's words are serious, the old man is just a village man, the ruling lord will not give up, you brothers can afford it, only today, General Kong will not be an outsider from now on, don't let these false courtesies be!" ”
Kong Geng sneered: "The old gentleman is old and virtuous, and the younger generation really admires it, but the official etiquette is exempt, and the private gift is difficult to go, as a junior, it is appropriate to give the old gentleman a salute." As he spoke, he took a few steps back, and when the oppression had relaxed a little, he bowed meticulously.
Ye Ji smiled faintly and said, "In this way, the old man will rely on the old man to sell the old man." Saying that, he sat down on the main seat and said, "Let's serve tea!" ”
Ma Ben next to him hurriedly walked out, just about to go out before he noticed that something was wrong, and couldn't help but glance back at Kong Geng, Kong Geng was fighting against Ye Ji's pressure with all his heart, where can he take care of this, and Xia Douyin, who was accompanying him at that time, was not under much pressure, so he simply walked over and said softly: "Let's go to tea, the general didn't say anything, why don't you hurry up." Ma Ben hurried away, and after a while came with a cup of hot tea, but saw General Kong Geng standing respectfully like the old man's nephew, and did not dare to have an impatient look. All this really reversed Ma Ben's common things, and the speculation about the old man's identity in his heart kept going up and down, and he couldn't get the point.
"Little brother, staying by the general's side is a good opportunity to be promoted and make a fortune, but if you are not careful, it is the way to get into trouble and be beaten, so you can't ignore it."
Just when Ma Ben wanted to get into trouble, the old man's words came from his ears, he was stunned, the tea in his hand was going to come out of his hand involuntarily, and he was about to pour it on the other party, Ma Ben was really dumbfounded, and said that this old man was noble, and he was only afraid that he couldn't afford to eat when he was angry, and he felt like falling into an ice cave.
Ye Ji's hand was like lightning, and he actually held the bowl that was about to fall. Ma Ben couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw him catch it, who knew that after Ye Ji put the bowl on the table, he comforted Ma Ben who was at a loss. It seems that he is not Ma Ben who is in trouble.
Kong Geng, who was on the side, said with a grim face: "You waste, you can't do this thing, don't get out of here!" ”
Ma Ben then walked away with a face full of shame.
Ye Ji smiled and said, "Why should General Kong be like this, he is still a child." ”
Kong Geng said: "If the jade is not cut, it can't be done, there are more than 20 people, and they don't even have a little eyesight, I really don't know what will happen to him in the future if he doesn't scold or fight." ”
Ye Ji smiled and said, "The general seems to be well versed in the way of father and son!" ”
With this smile, Kong Geng's pressure suddenly decreased, and he took a step forward and said very proudly: "Kong Mou treats the soldiers into the children, and the soldiers treat Kong like a father and brother." Therefore, although Kong's soldiers could not be said to have won a hundred battles, there were not many people who escaped from the battle. ”
Ye Ji said: "If the general loves soldiers like a son, then this truth is much easier to say, since Chang was in power, he has been diligent in government and loves the people, and treats the heroes of the Quartet as his sons, Yan Governor is in trouble, Chang Zhi does not say a word and appoints General Chen to lead the army into Jin, break Feng Yuxiang, and save Shanxi's father and old man from hanging upside down, but if that province dares to disobey the central government, recklessly secede, Chang Zheng will never tolerate mercy, and all the places in the southeast will be turned into ashes, which is similar to General Ye's way of teaching soldiers. ”
These words are like earth-shattering comebacks after the waves receded for a short period of silence, maybe everyone has said this, but who else can say this ordinary word with such a big momentum, who else can there be besides Ye Ji? I saw Kong Geng retreating a few steps in a row, and the cold sweat on his face flowed, as if someone had tortured him, and it seemed like a serious illness had hit, and he was uneasy and panicked.
"This Shanxi is China's Shanxi after all, and he can't tolerate Yan Xishan's self-righteousness, General Kong, don't be afraid, you and I can meet is also a chance, where I am always in power, I will ask for your life for you, as long as you are loyal to the country, loyal to the government, and say that a Shanxi overseer is a patrol envoy, and the envoys are all small problems, as long as your loyalty is worthy of your ability. Get my words! ”
Kong Geng immediately said: "Old gentleman, rest assured, if we all return to the southeast today, the general trend is definitely not something that can be resisted by manpower, and I am willing to serve the ruling lord before and after the horse." ”
Ye Ji glanced at him, stretched out his hand and took out an official document from his arms, slowly stood up, and said, "The ruling decree of the Republic of China, please listen to it!" ”
Kong Geng, Xia Douyin hurriedly stood upright and listened.
"Order No. 72 of the ruling government of the Republic of China, the general has the responsibility of serving the country and loving the people, and the central government has the righteousness of rewarding meritorious service.
Kong Geng made a very excited look and said: "Humble Kong Geng Xie Ruling Lord Heavenly Grace!" Then he raised his hands, respectfully took the ruling order, took a few steps back, raised his head, handed it to Xia Douyin, turned to Ye Ji and said: "Old man, the grace of the ruling lord, Kong Geng's liver and brain are toothless and unforgettable, but there is a little bit of humiliation in this that I don't understand, and I ask the old gentleman to give me advice." ”
"Admiral Kong, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"What does it mean in the ruling order that this town guards Xinzhou and protects the army in the north of Jin? Is it the meaning of letting the lowly go to Xinzhou to be the protector of the northern Jin Dynasty? ”
"The ruling Tianxin, how can you and I innocently speculate? But in the old man's shallow opinion, as the general said. ”
Kong Geng couldn't help but smile when he heard this, a military envoy may only be half of the overseer in government affairs, but in military affairs, he is the same, I didn't expect Chang Zhenbang to give himself such a big authority as soon as he came up, he was really generous, no wonder all the heroes in the world praised him, those old Beiyang lined up to return to Shun, I really want to know if there is, and I still need to stretch out my hand.
"How can a lowly position be so virtuous? Only in the next life is to tie the grass ring to repay the kindness of adults! ”
Ye Ji glanced at him and said lightly: "It's just that some words depend on how you do it, and Lord Ruling and I will see if you are really as loyal as you say." ”
After sending Ye Ji away, Kong Geng couldn't help but sigh and said to Xia Douyin: "This old man Ye is really powerful, where the whole person goes, it is even more powerful than facing thousands of troops." ”
Xia Douyin said: "An old gentleman in the southeast has such energy, and it is by no means unreasonable for him to rule the world. But now I want to congratulate the general. ”
"Where does the joy come from?"
"If you return to the southeast, you will be a hero from the dragon in the future, and you will have to be a wife and a son, and you will be rich for life." Xia Douyin said.
"Hey!" Kong Geng sighed and said: "Even if the princes in their fate are thirty years old, they will look up to people, but it is better to be at ease for three years!" Don't mention it, don't mention it! ”
Xia Douyin said with a smile: "If the general is unwilling to look up to people, he will naturally break his word and get fat, anyway, only God knows about this matter, the earth knows, you know, I know, and others don't know!" ”
"Ye Ji doesn't know?"
"Ye Jinai is a staff member in the southeast, and if he tears his face, he is an enemy, even if he says it, how many people will believe it? What is the general afraid of? ”
"When you should snort, you still have to snort, after all, your arms can't reach your thighs! It's better to be a slave to the central government than to be a slave to Yan Xishan, you go down and do it to appease Sun Lianzhong. ”
Xia Douyin said: "My subordinates will go!" Turned around and went to the stables, turned over and left, more than an hour to Meng County, after the report Sun Lianzhong personally went out of the city to greet, the two talked and laughed into the county office, after the guest and host sat down, Xia Douyin said straightforwardly, and said: "The general has approved Lord Sun's proposal, from now on you and my brother will be a family." ”
Sun Lianzhong smiled slightly and said: "This feeling is good, but Lord Xia doesn't know about it, just now, General Shang sent a messenger to ask me Sun Lianzhong to return to obedience, and to ensure that my whole army will not lose the position of division commander after the decay and refinement." ”
Xia Douyin secretly screamed in his heart that it came so quickly, but the people did not change his color and said: "General Sun will not agree!" In fact, everyone is in the same vein of Shanxi, and everyone is the same, and when they meet in the future, they are their own brothers! ”
Sun Lianzhong said: "Do you know who the person who came to persuade him to surrender? ”
Xia Douyin said: "General Sun Liangcheng, there is no one in the entire national army who is more suitable than General Sun Liangcheng." I don't know if General Sun, what my brother said is right! ”
Sun Lianzhong didn't say anything, just glanced at him and said, "What's the matter, isn't it?" A certain family is not one of those wastes, if General Kong is not sincere, a certain family can be thrown elsewhere, the world is big, a certain family is a good man, where can it not be famous! ”
Xia Douyin said: "General Kong has sincerity but no capital, and he is not as powerful as General Shang who can promise his lordship!" ”
"Sincerity is more important than the position of the high lord, General Xia might as well talk about it, maybe a certain family thinks it is appropriate!"
"Dare to ask, what does General Sun like about General Kong!"
Sun Lianzhong took out a silver dollar from his pocket and shook it in front of Xia Douyin, and said: "This is Shanxi, Yan Xishan on one side and Kong Geng on the other, here is my answer, I don't know if Lord Xia understands?" ”
"I see! Brother understood. Thanks to General Sun's love for General Kong, General Kong Geng is willing to marry General Sun Jinlan, as for General Sun's army, General Kong means to retain the essence of decay, if General Sun is reluctant, you can go to the decay and retain the essence. ”
"In this way, a certain family is willing to assist Brother Kong to achieve great things!" Sun Lianzhong said without thinking.
