Chapter 567: Annexation 1
There was a knock on the door of the "Knock Knock......" box.
"Come in!" Zhao Xun said in a deep voice. As soon as he heard the interval between the knocks, he knew that this was his subordinate.
"Lord Wind, General! All the people downstairs have been taken down, fifteen people have been killed, and twenty people have been captured alive! Wei Dong, who had a bloody aura, said in a deep voice.
"Excellent! Keep an eye on and don't let anyone in for the time being! ”
"Captain Hu, see it, the personal guards you brought have been taken down by my people!" Zhao Xun looked at Hu Zhi who was sitting on the ground and said coldly.
Hu Zhi sat paralyzed on the ground, his forehead in a cold sweat because of the pain from being hit hard by Zhao Xun. Heard Zhao Xun's words. He stared at Zhao Xun with a resentful expression and said, "Hmph...... What if you kill them? You know what? Outside this restaurant, there are still hundreds of government troops, and there are also 2,000 guards in the city. You think you'll be able to escape? ”
Feng Ziming said with a faint mockery: "Hu Zhi, Hu Duwei, it seems that you still haven't figured out the situation!" We can't, but we have people here! No, General Ye, the commander of the Shanyang Mansion Army, is here, I don't believe it, they dare to stop it! Could it be that Captain Hu has already informed the whole army of your governor's plan? ”
Hu Zhi's face turned pale, and after a while, he said angrily: "Okay! Good! Good! Count it on you, but don't forget, there are still 10,000 of my army in the north of the city, and when the time comes, the jade will be burned. At that point, my purpose will be achieved as well. ”
"Tsk! Tut! Tut! Said and really in general. Can your great move still be assembled and fought? The two leading captains were killed, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to restore their normal combat effectiveness! Zhao Xun said with a sneer.
"How do you ...... It's you! You did it! Hu Zhi exclaimed, his face full of horror.
"That's right, that's exactly what Ben will do! How is it? Recruit soldiers in vain, do not think about the people, but want to betray your brothers, you Hu Zhi, you should be killed! Zhao Xun said coldly.
"Wang Yang, let the prisoners below give an order to the government army outside, and say that Captain Hu let their officers come in and ask about something." Zhao Xun ordered in a deep voice.
"General Ye, how you say it, it's up to you!"
Governor's Mansion.
"Mr. Sima, there is a guest asking to meet!" Outside Sima Yu's study, the guard of the Duwei Mansion said in a deep voice.
Well? Have a guest asking to meet? I've never seen a guest in the Governor's Mansion.
"If you don't see it, tell them, just say that Lord Du Wei is not in the house, come back in the afternoon!" Sima Yu said without raising his head.
The "squeak...... door opened.
"Presumptuous! I said, let them ......" Sima Yu suddenly became angry, and he raised his head and was about to scold, but the scene in front of him made him swallow his words.
There were five people in the study, one was a personal guard who was serving him, but his face was blue and his nose was swollen at the moment. There were four left, each armed with a scimitar, with a murderous face. But they were wearing the clothes of the guards of the Governor's Mansion, as if they were the guards of the Governor's Mansion.
"Daring, who are you? This is the Governor's Mansion, you are so bold! Sima Yu suddenly said angrily.
"Sima Yu! That's right, it's him! The first person looked at Sima Yu, and after saying a word, he stepped forward, and the scimitar in his hand brought a cold light across Sima Yu's throat.
"Uh......" Sima Yu felt a chill on his neck, and then felt as if something hot was flowing out of his neck. When I reached out and touched it, I was shocked to find that my hands were full of red blood.
"We are General Ye and Lord Feng's people, on the orders of Lord Feng, take your life!" The first person whispered in Sima Yu's ear.
"Feng Ziming...... Ye Xuan...... They...... The matter of Sanyang Mansion is lost! If I had known, I should have killed Feng Ziming! Before falling into darkness, Sima Yu seemed to have figured out something, but it was too late.
With Ye Xuan's appearance, the three hundred army outside the Yanyu Building quickly surrendered. It's not so much about surrendering as it is about meeting Shangguan in person. One is the commander of the Shanyang Prefecture Army, and the other is the Governor of the Prefecture and the Governor of the Prefecture.
"Report! Lord Qiyu, Sima Yu of the Governor's Mansion has been beheaded! ”
"Haha...... Well done! Zhao Xun turned his head sideways and sneered at Hu Zhi: "Now, what else do you have to rely on?" ”
When Hu Zhi heard the news, his face immediately turned to ashes. Sima Yu's death in battle means that all his cronies in this city are complete. Of course, more importantly, the hole card that can represent the governor and take the power of the government army from Ye Xuan is gone.
"Let's go, let's go to the Governor's Mansion immediately, gather the officers of the whole city government, and take over the whole city. General Ye, let our people into the city immediately! Zhao Xun said in a deep voice.
Ye Xuan also knew that nowadays, only Feng Ziming's people entered the city were the safest, otherwise, accidents could happen at any time.
"Mark Luo Hang, the captain of the left battalion, and Zhang Qing, the captain of the right military school, I have seen all of you!" In the Governor's Mansion, the two military captains finally surrendered and recognized Ye Xuan's right to command, and of course, they also admitted what Ye Xuan said, Hu Zhi conscripted troops privately and harbored misdeeds.
"My lord, Shanyang Mansion Thorn Shi Hu Qingming has arrived!"
"Let him in!" Without waiting for Ye Xuan to speak, Zhao Xun took the lead to speak.
Ye Xuan saw Zhao Xun speaking in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly, his face was bitter, and then he shook his head helplessly and did not speak.
"Hu Tingshi, are you surprised to see us sitting here?" Seeing that Hu Qingming was brought in by the guards of the guard, his face was pale and his body trembled, Zhao Xun said coldly.
"General Ye, Lord Feng, it's not that the lower officials deliberately neglect the adults, it's just that the arrows given by Lord Hu Zhi and the Governor, I have to obey it!" Hu Qingming cried repeatedly.
"Arrows! Arrow ...... In this way, we don't have an arrow now, so you're not going to be obedient? Zhao Xun said lightly.
"General, all the inspections of the Governor's Mansion have been completed, and 358 people from Hu Zhitong's party have been captured, how should we deal with it." Just as Hu Qingming was about to speak, there was a report from the soldiers outside the hall who had checked the results of the battle.
"Enemy! Only dead enemies are the best enemies! Summarily executed! Zhao Xun's eyes narrowed and said sharply.
"Obey!"
Zhao Xun came back to his senses and said with a smile: "What did we just say?" Oh...... By the way, I remembered that Lord Thorn only obeyed the orders of those who had the orders of Lord Governor, right? is not ready to listen to us. In this way, Hu Tingshi is preparing to be an enemy with us, right? As he spoke, Zhao Xun's hand couldn't help but touch the saber on the table.
As soon as he saw Zhao Xun's movements, cold sweat came out on Hu Qingming's forehead, only a dead enemy is a good enemy. He didn't want to die, the young general on the other side was definitely a ruthless master, and if he didn't do well, he would definitely die. Immediately said in a loud voice: "No! No! No! From now on, the lower officials should take the lead of the general and do everything! ”
Zhao Xun knocked on the table and said with a smile: "It's not that I am looking at the horse, but that I am looking at the wind and the horse." ”
"Yes! Be! Be! Take the wind and look ahead! Hu Qingming said repeatedly.
"Very good, because the war ahead is tight, and because Hu Zhi privately recruited soldiers and refused to illegally send grain and grass materials, my family has to preside over the overall work in Shanyang Mansion. From now on, you will be my family's deputy. Remember, you need to cooperate with any orders from my family. Otherwise, my people recognize people, but the sword in my hand does not recognize people. Do you understand? Of course, you don't have to worry, I will send an army to assist you, and anyone who does not obey the military orders will be punished for the crime of treason, and the Nine Clans will be punished! Zhao Xun said in a sloppy voice.
Hu Qingming's face was dripping with cold sweat, and now he realized that this young man was definitely a murderer. He also knew that now Shanyang Mansion was really in charge of Feng Ziming. Because Ye Xuan is in charge of the front-line battle, he can't take care of it here. Although he didn't understand what Hu Zhi, Feng Ziming and Ye Xuan were doing, he understood that he was now standing on Feng Ziming's warship.
Does he have a choice? No. Ye Xuan is the commander of the Shanyang Mansion Army, but now in Juye City, there is no one in his hands, and he has to fight in the north. Now it seems that Feng Ziming is the biggest profiteer. Without a sound, he won the power of Shanyang Mansion, and at the same time supported more than 10,000 troops. Together with the new army of Ho Chi, which will be dealt with later, it is an army of 20,000.
Thinking of this, Hu Qingming couldn't help but be surprised by Feng Ziming's old scheming. Who said that Feng Ziming was suppressed by Ye Xuan at the beginning? It's complete nonsense, look at it now, Ye Xuan is trapped in the north and fighting with the Tang army, he is miserable, and he may be defeated at any time. When the time comes, it will be okay if the power is gone, and I am afraid that even the reputation will be thrown away. Look at Feng Ziming again, there is no sound, let Ye Xuan seize it. On the day of the seizure of power, he Hu Qingming was also present, what was the result? Staying in Juye City, he quietly got down 10,000 troops and affected the situation in Juye City. Now, Hu Zhi has been brought down overnight and become the master.
As for what Hu Qingming thinks, Zhao Xun doesn't care, the first thing he needs to deal with now is the 10,000 troops in the camp north of the city. This army has not yet learned about the situation here, but no matter what, they are a force for Zhao Xun. Of course, there is still a hidden danger now.
"Wei Dong, I will leave half of the manpower and hand it over to you and the two military captains to stay in the city and deal with the aftermath. Check all the treasury in the city for me to prepare for the coming war. Whoever dares to obstruct our army's work will be killed. Lord Feng, there is still an official in the city to preside over the overall situation. From the perspective of subordinates, it is none other than you. What does Hu Thorn Shi think? Zhao Xun looked at Hu Qingming below and said lightly.
"The lower officials think so, Lord Feng is famous, and it is natural for him to be in charge of the affairs of the city, and he should be!" Hu Qingming hurriedly smiled.
"General Ye, I'm bothering you to go with me to the camp in Yuan Town, north of the city. After all, you are the commander of the army of Shanyang Prefecture, and it will be of great help to me to take over the army. Only by dealing with these people will we be able to provide effective logistical supply and support to the large army in the north. Zhao Xun looked at Ye Xuan again and said lightly.
Ye Xuan's face was pale, and he didn't say anything. Zhao Xun's words were simple, but they were also obvious. The government affairs of Shanyang Mansion are handed over to Feng Ziming to be in charge, and there is nothing to do with you Ye Xuan. In addition, the 2,000 government troops in his hands must also be left behind. In addition, the 10,000 new troops in the north of the city were also taken over by me. Otherwise, the army of Boping City will not be able to get supplies.
Of course, Ye Xuan could fight back. However, Ye Xuan had no soldiers and horses in his hands. Only the two thousand government troops are not the opponents of the other party, not to mention Feng Ziming is still the official of the governor of the governor's mansion. In addition, and more importantly, Ye Xuan did not have time to delay. If you stay here for a long time, who knows if there will be any accidents there in Boping? He could not afford such a responsibility.
When Ye Xuan was stationed in Feng Ziming's camp, he had this realization that Shanyang Mansion would eventually fall into the hands of Feng Ziming. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be true. But the expectation is expected, and the arrival of the truth really makes it a little difficult for him to accept.
You said that you fought the front line, but as a result, the rear soldiers fell into the hands of your political enemies without blood, which is indeed a bit ......
Ye Xuan didn't answer, Feng Ziming's eyes moved slightly, and he didn't say much. He knew that this was Zhao Xun talking to Ye Xuan, ah, he just needed to be good at himself, and he looked like he was light. And Hu Qingming, who started it, didn't dare to say more. But he knew in his heart that at this moment, Ye Xuan was defeated, and he was completely defeated. Half a month ago, Ye Xuan swept away Fengzi's face and became the commander of the Shanyang Mansion Army. Half a month later, Feng Ziming suddenly exerted his strength and became the de facto master of Shanyang Mansion. And Ye Xuan still needs to work the front line to resist the invasion of the Tang Army. In the name of the commander of the army of Shanyang Prefecture, he took on the heavy task of resisting the enemy, but he was held by the other party with his lifeline, and the taste was not very pleasant. Feng Ziming, there is a hand! Hu Qingming thought so.
"General Ye, do you have any questions? You might as well say it, everyone refer to it! Zhao Xun said with a smile.
Ye Xuan looked at Zhao Xun gloomily, then at Feng Ziming, for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Feng, admire!" ”
Feng Ziming smiled disapprerovitively: "Don't dare, for General Ye, Feng really admires it." The Tang Army is not easy to deal with, and being able to fight with the Tang Army on the front line is really admirable. ”
"Haha! Okay, just do what General Li said! Let's go, I've been out of the barracks for a while, so I'll get out of here and go back to the front. Lord Feng, the logistics of my 30,000 brothers depend on you, my lord. ”
Feng Ziming's face was straight, and he said: "General Ye, rest assured, the army needs it, and Feng will definitely do it in time." ”
"Luo Hang, captain of the left battalion, Zhang Qing, captain of the right army!"
"Mark it in!"
"Immediately hand over the city defense to the general's subordinates, and then return to the camp and wait for the army to be reorganized. I don't want any accidents, otherwise, it will have to be treated as a chaotic army, do you understand? Zhao Xun stared at the two military captains and said in a condensed voice.
Luo Hang, the captain of the left battalion, and Zhang Qing, the captain of the right army, changed their faces, and hurriedly said in a deep voice: "Obey the general's order!" "Just kidding, even the commander of the government army has backed down, how dare they carry it to the death?
"Well, if it's handled well, you'll be the new cadets after the reorganization. Of course, you can also see the difference between my minions and yours. It's not that General Ben deliberately embarrassed you, there is indeed a gap between your 2,000 people and my corporaries. As you must know, the training requirements of my soldiers are extremely strict. Of course, the treatment is also good. ”
The two of them even claimed that they were, and their faces looked a little better.
However, after inquiring about the situation of the two lieutenants and Hu Qingming, Zhao Xun realized that the Shangyuan Town military camp was not so simple. Although he got rid of the two leading captains, the captains of the following departments were all promoted by Hu Zhi, and they only listened to Hu Zhi's military orders and did not take the officials of Shanyang Mansion in their eyes. Even the assassin Hu Qingming, they didn't care. In the same way, Hu Zhicai sent the 10,000 troops and the 2,000 government troops to two places. The government army defended the city, and the more than 10,000 new troops trained in Shangyuan Town.
Only then did Zhao Xun remember that the more than 10,000 troops were all composed of defeated troops, not the Pu Qingzhuang of Juye City, nor the army of Shanyang Prefecture. For these ruffians, I'm afraid that Ye Xuan's identity is really not very good.
In the back hall of the Governor's Mansion, Ye Xuan, Zhao Xun, Feng Ziming, and Hu Qingming were all present.
"Hu Zhi, you have also seen the situation, Juye City has been taken over by us, and the Governor's Mansion has also been occupied by me. As for Sima Yu, he has now gone to the underworld to report. So, what are your options? To live, or to die? Zhao Xun asked Hu Zhi with a cold voice on his face.
"Huh...... To live or to die? Do I still have a way to live? Hu Zhi said bitterly, "Becoming the king and defeating the king, I lost, and I also admit it." ”
Zhao Xun said in a deep voice: "Whether you kill or not depends on your appearance." At the very least, you and I haven't had a head-on fight so far. In other words, what you are doing now has no effect on us. If you are willing to cooperate with us, we promise you to spare your life. Of course, whether you can get rid of Xu Jie's disposal or not, you can do it yourself. How is it? ”
Hu Zhi said angrily: "What else do you want to do? Shanyang Mansion is yours, and now that I'm a prisoner, what else can I do? Kill if you want to! ”
"I'm going to take over the Shangyuan Town Barracks!" Zhao Xun said lightly.
"You want that army of 10,000? Don't! Don't you listen to it greatly? The commander of the army of Shanyang Prefecture and the governor of the Governor Shi are all here, why bother to go with their identity, use their identity to suppress them! If I knew this, I should have fought with you in the first place! Hu Zhi said coldly.
Zhao Xun raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Hu Zhi, we don't talk darkly. Do you really want to die? I can fulfill you. Sue you, although your new army is 10,000 men, it will not be very difficult for us to take him. Guarding outside the barracks, without food and grass, I see how long they can hold out! It's just that Lord Feng and General Ye don't want Brother Pao Ze to kill each other, so this gives you a chance not to take yourself too seriously. Besides, the leading lieutenant is dead, and now they are messing around, do you think they still have some fighting spirit? Want to go against the Sanyang Mansion? They went to rebel? ”
Hu Zhi was stunned, and then remembered that Juye City fell into the hands of the other party, and his 10,000 new troops would be newly incorporated into his command. Even if they are all their own cronies, they will not insist on it when there is no food and grass. Not to mention letting them go against the government, without Hu Zhi, it would be strange for these people to dare to go against the government.
If it weren't for the time constraint and the fact that he didn't want to lose too much, Zhao Xun would have led someone to kill him directly.
Hu Zhi was angry, angry and frustrated, and said weakly: "That...... What do you want to do? ”
"Assist us, take over the barracks, and after that, go wherever you want! Of course, you can't leave until half a month later. Zhao Xun said coldly.
"Okay, I promise!" Hu Zhi said astringently.
