The somewhat dim sky overhead let Ning Zhiyuan, who had just gotten up, know that there was no sun today, and looked at Li Jun outside the door, which made him feel warm again, warmer than when there was sun.

Back in the Ming Dynasty, I've already gained a lot, haven't I? He thought of him and his round little girl, and so many brothers.

"There are so many brothers guarding the yard, so you won't have to do this in the future." Ning Zhiyuan said, and couldn't help but think of a fragment in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Dian Wei was guarding outside Cao Cao's gate, and was finally killed by Zhang Xiu.

"Sleep the same everywhere."

This is a guy who is sometimes silly and sometimes cool.

Due to the change of people in the middle of the night, the spirit of the more than 100 soldiers brought by Ning Zhiyuan was not bad, and he followed Feng Lei to gather his 8,000 city guards, leaving only a few people to guard the city.

At noon, the sky was still dark.

Ningxia Zhongwei has only one school field, which is not as important as Ningxiawei, a nine-sided town, but it is much more dynamic.

Ning Zhiyuan stood on the high platform in the center with a calm face, Feng Lei was next to him, and there were groups of soldiers below, but the school field still seemed very empty.

He had never seen an army of 15,000 people, but he thought that it should definitely not be so small, with Feng Lei's 8,000 people on the left, and the 7,000 people on the right only looked half as good.

He wanted to manage it, but now was not the time, and he couldn't manage it.

"Soldiers, today I want to tell you something very important." Ning Zhiyuan said loudly, and his voice echoed in the empty school ground.

The soldiers below looked at the prefect who had kidnapped their generals yesterday with some curiosity.

"From now on, I am your commander-in-chief, and your commander-in-chief He is dead." Saying that, he took out a thing, which was the secret decree of the imperial court, "This official Ning Zhiyuan, you can hear it clearly." ”

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said that Ningxia heavy general He Huchen did not want to repay the country and died, so the new prefect took Ning Zhiyuan's place and must not be disobeyed."

All the soldiers in the audience were a little stunned, but they only saw little of the holy decree, even Lei Fang was like this, it was the same as what Wei Chang said last night, it seems that this prefect is really looking for him, as for who is the chief soldier, the court said yes, but the chief soldier is not able to decide if he can take care of himself, if the people become peaceful, maybe it can.

"Silver, silver, we want silver" A group of people shouted, led by a certain voice, without even kneeling.

Ning Zhiyuan didn't know if Chongzhen felt sad when he gave this holy decree, in the era of the supremacy of imperial power, a monarch's appointment order can only be realized through his own hard work, this holy decree only gives himself a name, and everything else is earned by himself. He thought.

Ning Zhiyuan raised his arm and waved it, signaling them to calm down, but it didn't work, he looked at Feng Lei and motioned for him to shout, after all, these soldiers are still only afraid of the wicked and not afraid of themselves as outsiders.

"Stop, stop, who said I won't give you money." Feng Lei immediately shouted, sure enough, it was much more effective than Ning Zhiyuan, and the team was almost quiet.

"From now on, I guarantee that each of you will receive your military pay." Ning Zhiyuan continued, "Your previous salaries were all corrupted by He Huchen, and now, this official will not embezzle your military salaries." ”

Signaling Chen Biao and them to move out the silver, which was found from Yuan Shao's mansion last night, there were nearly 300,000 taels, which was expected, but Yuan Shao had only been a fellow acquaintance for three years.

"Five taels per person, it's just your half a year, and there will be one after half a year, and a team will come to receive it."

The crowd quieted down, and things were surprisingly calm, except for those soldiers who were not present, which made Ning Zhiyuan feel that he really thought too much, He Huchen, as a general soldier who came up from the grassroots level, really didn't have his own cronies?

"Lord Ning." Suddenly, a voice shouted, "Can you tell your subordinates how General Soldier He died?" ”

"You're Thunder Fang?" Ning Zhiyuan showed a hint of a smile, he had heard this name many times from Feng Lei and Yuan Guang's mouths, and Wei Chang was standing beside Lei Fang at this time.

"Yes." Lei Fang replied, a trace of helplessness welled up in his heart, as soon as the chief soldier came, he smashed the silver over, he really had no choice but to choose to speak at this time, otherwise there would be no chance to turn around when the soldiers got the silver in their hands.

"I can't." Ning Zhiyuan looked at the thousand households in front of him, "I don't have to tell you, do I?" ”

Some things can't be said, his letter to Xu Guangqi said that Yuan Shao killed He Huchen, Chongzhen may believe it, because he doesn't know the situation in Ningxia, but these soldiers will definitely not believe it, they know that Yuan Shao killed He Huchen, there is no benefit.

"Haha, then don't we know about your false decree?" Lei Fang suddenly laughed and said, "Also, it's you, you killed General He, didn't you?" You anti-thief. ”

Ning Zhiyuan's smile was still the same, and he really didn't know how to refute it for a while.

"Brothers, I know that most of you don't care who is the chief soldier, but I want to ask you not to stop me, don't help this dog official who pretends to pass on the holy decree, otherwise it will be a rebellion."

"Avenge General He, you can get the silver if you kill the dog officer, rush." Lei Fang shouted angrily.

For a while, almost the four thousand people on the right obeyed Lei Fang's order, while the eight thousand people on the left were hesitating, this scene made Ning Zhiyuan not very happy.

"You are rebelling." Ning Zhiyuan muttered, motioning to Chen Biao and them to open the box containing the silver, and the shiny silver was revealed.

"Stop, stop." Chen Biao shouted, "Are you all idiots, whatever he says is what he says." ”

"If you kill Lei Fang, you will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver, and if you kill an enemy, you will be rewarded with 5 taels of silver."

The team of 4,000 people began to get a little disorganized, and the team of 8,000 people looked to the right with fierce eyes.

This army is really difficult to control, Ning Zhiyuan glanced at the more than 10,000 people below, and sighed, let's fight, let's fight, maybe they all deserve to die.

Suddenly, the noisy crowd was quiet again.

There seemed to be a smell of blood floating in the air.

Ning Zhiyuan looked at the past, and it was Wei Chang who caused the incident.

"My lord, the head of the thief has been executed." Wei Chang said calmly, with a bloodstained knife in his hand, "Live up to the trust of adults." ”

Lying next to Lei Fang's corpse, Wei Chang continued, "Lei Fang invited a few of us thousands of households to his mansion yesterday, plotted a rebellion, and trapped the rest of the thousands of households. ”

"Wei Chang, you shameless man, go and die." Suddenly, more than a dozen people in the crowd scolded, and rushed forward with weapons, "How can the general believe you villain." ”

They are Lei Fang's personal soldiers, and their loyalty to Lei Fang is beyond doubt, just as Lei Fang is to He Huchen.

The soldiers next to Wei Chang hurriedly came up, as soon as Lei Fang died, only those few soldiers were willing to die for him, but Wei Chang's side was different, seeing the last figure fall to the ground, the turmoil was completely calmed down.

Ning Zhiyuan witnessed the whole process, and the people who died were some people with integrity, and they were also some of the most damned people.

"Good." Ning Zhiyuan said lightly, "Let's come over and get the silver, it's still like that, five taels per person, and then take the head over if you kill the thief, five taels a piece." ”

Perhaps it would be a very inhumane thing to cut off their heads after death, but the soldiers who killed them did not hesitate to do so, and Wei Chang took the lead in cutting off Lei Fang's head and a group of guards rushed to the high platform.

"Lord Ning, the head of the thief is here." Wei Chang slowly walked up the wooden steps, holding Lei Fang's head with both hands, and said in a deep voice.

There were only three people on the high platform, Ning Zhiyuan, Feng Lei, and Li Jun.

Li Jun knew that Ning Zhiyuan had approached Wei Chang last night, and he even knew the conversation process clearly, this was a person who had made great contributions, and Li Jun defined Wei Chang like this.

Ning Zhiyuan frowned, he didn't like to get close to this kind of bloody head.

"Wei Chang, you don't have to come up." Ning Zhiyuan said.

Wei Chang paused for a moment and said in a deep voice, "My subordinates still have important things to tell." ”

"About the follow-up actions prepared by the Ray side."
