Chapter 364: Inspecting the Barracks

Cheng Yue went out of the house and got on the horse, hid guns and ammunition, deliberately did not bring any entourage, and went straight to the camp of Kuokuo and the Six Kings alone.

The camp was in the northwest corner of the city, and like the rest of the city, it was a simple stone house, surrounded by a wooden fence and heavily guarded.

Cheng Yue rode his horse to the gate of the camp, and the sergeant guarding the gate saw Cheng Yue's iconic new military uniform and the imperial horse given by him, and knew that Cheng Yue was coming.

The sergeant hurriedly reported to the Qianhu guarding the gate, and the Qianhu guarding the gate pretended not to know, climbed to the camp gate and shouted, "Who is coming?" Go any further, and I'll make you a trespasser! He deliberately said it in Mongolian, wanting Cheng Yue not to understand.

Cheng Yue really didn't understand it, but he could guess a few points, so he took out the official seal of Zuo Cheng in Zhongshu from his arms, showed it to him, and said: "I am Cheng Yue, the commander of the right army, immediately open the door and let me enter the camp!" ”

The guards sent someone to take the seal, looked at it and looked at it, and scolded more than once, how could the heart let the Han people take care of the Mongols. had no excuse to stop him, so he had to order someone to open the door and invite Cheng Yue in.

Cheng Yue immediately dismounted after entering the door, and saw that the surrounding Yuan army was only half-saluting him under the leadership of Qianhu, he couldn't help frowning, and said to Qianhu, who was guarding the door: "Why do you only salute halfway?" Who taught you the rules? ”

The doorkeeper Qianhu said confidently: "With armor on your body, you can't pay full salutes." ”

Cheng Yue glanced at him coldly and said, "It's really overkill to just let you guard the door." After saying that, he walked inside without looking back.

In the middle of the camp was an avenue, and the sergeants on both sides saw Cheng Yue coming, one to ten, ten to hundred. Flocked to the sides of the road to see their manager. However, they are different from the army that Cheng Yue led before. is more resentful towards Cheng Yue. The Mongols conquered the Central Plains. And a Han Chinese from the Southern Song Dynasty actually became their commander, which was difficult for them to accept.

Cheng Yue did not go to look for Kuokuo, but checked everywhere in the camp. For a while, feel whether the kang is warm or not, and then see if the room is airtight. Few of the Mongolians here speak Chinese and cannot speak to Cheng Yue.

Cheng Yue walked around the camp very happily alone, and everywhere he went, there was always a large group of Mongolians silently surrounding him, looking at him with complicated expressions.

Cheng Yue's care for them is in their eyes. I was also very moved, but I still didn't want the Han people to order me.

After a while, Wu Liangbi and Sticky Wing found him. Wu Liangbi smiled: "Is the marshal on a private visit to Weifu?" How about the last general to accompany each other? ”

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Just come and take a look, did you announce my eight major beheadings?" ”

Wu Liangbi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the last general has sent someone to engrave the lettering, which will make it clear to everyone." ”

Cheng Yue nodded and said, "It seems that there are more than a dozen houses where the doors and windows are not closed tightly, and the wind is cold, you can find a craftsman to repair it." Next time I come back I don't want to see a house like this. ”

Wu Liangbi said respectfully: "Yes." ”

Cheng Yue said to Sticky Min: "The thousands of households guarding the door are very much my heart, and there is still a lack of stables in our army." Do you let people go? ”

Sticky didn't understand what was going on, and didn't dare to ask, so he could only agree.

Cheng Yue led them to continue to wander around, and all the generals arrived one after another. The six kings were obviously more respectful to Cheng Yue than yesterday, Cheng Yue had a cold face very unceremoniously, and asked while walking, the six kings would answer all the questions, and they had been careful all the time, if Cheng Yue gave an order, the six kings all nodded hurriedly and said yes. Seeing this, Kuokuo was secretly anxious, not knowing what to do with them.

The Yuan army in the camp couldn't help but smile bitterly when they saw the appearance of the six kings welcoming Cheng Yue. If the kings are so, what else can they do?

Soon after Cheng Yue returned home, Zhang Xiaozhong and other generals led troops to return from training to see Cheng Yue. It turned out that after the generals led their troops out of the city, they couldn't get rid of the scrutiny of the people sent by Boyan, and they couldn't turn their faces with them, so they had to let Zhou Shifang deal with them to get out.

Cheng Jun has not been trained in the snow, so this soldier must be trained. Cheng Yue thought for a moment and said: "In this way, snow training doesn't have to hide from them, they can watch it if they want to, and they may not be able to use it if they understand it." They are not allowed to watch the rest of the training, and if they can't get rid of it, they will be arrested first, and then let them go after the training is over. ”

With Cheng Yue's words, the generals were relieved. At this time, the gatekeeper Qianhu who offended Cheng Yue was driven out of the barracks and asked to see him outside the Shuai's mansion.

Cheng Yue ordered someone to summon him into the study, and before he arrived, he told the generals about the cold reception he received at the gate of the barracks today.

Si Wenjie sneered: "These Mongolian dogs, if you don't teach a lesson, you can't learn well." ”

Wu Jiang said with a smile: "Governor Dadu, don't let his subordinates do anything to be a stableman, isn't he a good keeper, just let him stand at the door of the Shuai Mansion every day and shake his majesty, he won't freeze to death!" ”

The generals laughed, all clapped their hands, and Cheng Yue nodded with a smile.

The thousand households were brought to Cheng Yue, and a man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist stood alone in the hall, and said in embarrassment: "Qiyu Dashuai, subordinate Qianhu Wuner, come to listen to the instructions." ”

Zhang Yuande shouted: "Are you still in armor now?" On your knees! ”

Unar hesitated for a moment, glanced at Toktok again, and finally knelt on the ground, silent.

Cheng Yue said: "I know that you are not convinced, and you feel ashamed to salute the Han people." I'm the same, except for the Great Khan, and I'm not willing to let me kneel to the Mongols. I'm not asking you to come here to humiliate you, I'm busy, I don't have that much to do. ”

took a sip of tea, and continued: "Today you embarrassed me in front of everyone, I must deal with you, otherwise how can the prestige of the coach remain?" But I don't want to kill you, because I think you're finally a bit talented. So it's better to do this, don't do it, I didn't bring anyone this time, I can't always let Xiao Zhen and Ma Fu guard the gate for me, you can be my doorman, pass back and forth, listen to my orders in case of trouble, are you willing? ”

Uner was stunned, to be Cheng Yue's doorman? Isn't that a promotion? Even so, if you become Cheng Yue's doorman, will you be laughed at?

Cheng Yue said: "If you don't want to or feel that you can't do a good job, I won't force you, you have a knife at your waist, cut yourself." ”

Unar was horrified and protested: "What sin am I guilty of? Are you going to be killed just because you didn't pay a full salute to the commander? I heard that Dashuai has always prided himself on being fair and selfless, is this the justice of Dashuai? ”

Cheng Yue said: "You have three sins, first, you tried to attack my prestige in front of everyone, and you were disloyal to the commander, which is a capital crime in the army." Second, you look down on the Han people and want to provoke discord in the army, which is again a capital crime. Third, I gave you the opportunity to correct your mistakes and atone for your sins, but you did not repent and still thought that you had no fault and should not be punished. You say, "What's the use of me keeping someone like you?" If you don't die, who should die? ”

Uner was said to be in a cold sweat, he thought that Cheng Yue was resentful and revenge, but Cheng Yue's words pierced his heart like a needle, and he realized that he had indeed committed a taboo in the army, and Cheng Yue would never be wronged if he executed him.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly bowed to the ground and said, "Uner knows that he is deeply responsible, and he is willing to serve the commander to atone for his sins!" ”

Tokhtar said: "Unar, the big handsome spare you from dying, your life is already the big handsome, from now on you must be loyal to the big handsome, if there is any more disloyalty and injustice, don't need the big handsome to order, don't dirty our knife, do you understand?" ”

Uner was ashamed and said: "Yes, I have always been self-righteous and arrogant in the past, but now after listening to the lesson of the handsome, I know how shallow I am, and I will definitely change my mind and change my past mistakes in the future." ”

Wu Jiang smiled and said, "You know that you can change your mistakes, you can be called a man, and it is worth it for the handsome to give you a chance." But you still have to thank me, and if I hadn't said a few kind words for you, you would have to feed the horses by now! ”

Uner was extremely obedient, and immediately kowtowed to Wu Jiang, not knowing who he was, but said in a loud voice: "Thank you, thank you." ”

The generals burst into laughter, and Ren Qing said with a smile: "You guy, you dare to give the capital governor a lot of anger, aren't you looking for death?" It's good now, it's a blessing in disguise, follow the governor of the capital to do a good job, what is a thousand households. ”

Uner was confused and asked, "Dare to ask the marshal, when the marshal returns to Dadu or Lin'an, will his subordinates follow?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "Let's talk about it then, it's too early to say." Get up, and now watch the door, and don't get in the way of us talking. ”

Unar honestly kowtowed again, got up, and trotted to the door.

Cheng Yue then discussed with the generals how to train the troops until the evening.

After breakfast the next day, Cheng Yue went to King Zong's mansion to ask to see Kublai Khan.

Kublai Khan directly ordered Cheng Yue to go to his dormitory, and when he saw Cheng Yue coming in, he immediately retreated left and right, and asked directly: "You didn't expect those people in Cyriji to be so tolerant, right?" ”

Cheng Yue nodded and sighed: "The minister really didn't expect it, the minister had already arranged it properly, and he didn't give them a good face, so they couldn't help but do it, but they didn't expect them to let the minister's plan fail, so they had to find another opportunity in the future." ”

Kublai Khan said: "I think they are more than this, they should have other ideas." When he spoke, his eyes were already staring at Cheng Yue, and his face was extremely serious. If Cheng Yue secretly formed an alliance with Xiliji and others, it would be a catastrophe for Kublai Khan!

Cheng Yue smiled slightly and said, "Of course they will think about anything in order to survive, but the minister can guarantee that they are dead." ”

Kublai Khan smiled and said, "I know you always do what you say, but if it's too difficult, don't rush it. ”

Cheng Yue shook his head and said, "No, the minister is here this time, and this matter must be resolved." The minister promised the Great Khan that he would never break his word. If it really doesn't work, the minister will kill them directly, and then frame them to collude with Haidu, and the evidence minister will do a good job, and the Great Khan will issue an edict to reprimand, and there will be no one who doubts it. ”

When Kublai Khan heard Cheng Yue confess like this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "You are really ...... Alas, I see, you can do it. ”

Cheng Yue grinned toothily and said, "The ministers are also forced to have no choice, who let them die badly?" (To be continued......)
