Chapter 122: The Turmoil of the He Clan (4)
"Chang Qing, you tell him, what is Article 7 of the "Great Zhao Military Law"." He Tengxiao did not directly tell Zhou Shi what Article 7 of "Da Zhao Military Law" was, but asked Chang Qing on the side to tell Zhou Shi.
"Yes! Article 7 of the "Great Zhao Military Law": Those who disobey the order will be punished with 50 rods and beheaded for the heavier ones. Chang Qing skillfully recited the seventh article of the "Great Zhao Military Law".
Zhou Shi blushed and did not speak.
"I now command you to take your men back to the camp immediately, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless and punish you." He Tengxiao said to Zhou Shi in a commanding tone.
"General, this ...... Could it be that you (him) (mother) don't care about the safety of the head of the family?! The head of the family is your own father! Zhou Shi was so anxious that he couldn't choose to speak.
"Presumptuous!" Seeing Zhou Shi's disrespectful words, Chang Qing couldn't help it.
"Stand down! What to do, I have my own measure! I don't need you to teach me. He Tengxiao lowered his face and reprimanded Zhou Shi unceremoniously.
Zhou Shi's face was stunned, he retreated stupidly, turned his back in a negative anger, and greeted angrily: "Go back to the camp!" ”
More than 100 soldiers immediately followed Zhou Shi and dispersed, squeezing away the lively onlookers and returning to the camp.
He Tengxiao knew that Zhou Shi would not give up, and after returning to the camp, it was very likely that he would lead his troops to return to the state alone. He Tengxiao instructed Chang Qing to send some people to keep an eye on Zhou Shi and report as soon as there was any change.
Not long after Zhou Shi retired, he came on a flying horse, grabbed the reins of the horse in front of the general's mansion and stopped, carrying a wooden cylinder on his back. Needless to say, this outfit shows that this cavalryman is here to deliver military information. Except for the middle and high-ranking military attaches and their own soldiers who can gallop in the city, only the flying cavalry that transmits military information can gallop in the city.
He Tengxiao secretly thought: At this time, the messenger flying ride came, didn't something happen?
"The emergency military situation in Fuzhou, the general has seen it."
The messenger dismounted reflexively, knelt in front of He Shihu, skillfully removed the wooden cylinder containing military intelligence documents on his back, held it high above his head, and presented it to He Shihu.
He Shihu took the wooden tube and ordered the guards to take the messenger to ride down to rest.
He Shihu tore off the seal, took out the military emergency in the wooden cylinder and looked at it. After reading this military emergency, He Shihu was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
He Shihu's expression made He Tengxiao feel a little uneasy, what kind of military situation was it, He Shihu was stunned after reading it?
"He Shibao sent troops to return to Zhou, and he has set off from Jinzhou, and the He family still has to fight in the same room after all." After a while, He Shihu said bitterly the content of the military urgency in his hand.
The most unfortunate thing that the least wanted thing finally happened, a beating incident turned out to be the fuse of the He family's civil strife, which made He Tengxiao feel unexpected, and always felt that God was joking with him. He would rather it was just a joke, and the infighting of the change of the patriarch of the He clan broke out early, which was not a good thing for him. He Tengxiao's wings are not yet full, He Fangxiong has just begun to pay attention to He Tengxiao, after this chaos, if He Shibao successfully usurps the position of patriarch, He Tengxiao's life will not be as good as it is now.
Although He Tengxiao would rather this be a joke and a farce, the military situation is really in front of him, and He Tengxiao and He Shihu have to face this cruel reality.
The storm is still coming, and it is coming early. The He family is about to face a bloody storm.
Since He Shibao has chosen this path, He Shibao is a member of his He clan or his blood relative, He Tengxiao can only show his sword to deal with it.
"The nose of the Huang secret agent is smarter than a dog, and the news will soon spread to Jinzhou and even Liaoyang City." He Tengxiao took a deep breath, cleared his thoughts, and said, "The Huang clan and the Liao army are all looking at us to make a mess, so they will step on us hard, it's best that we can't get up, the Qin army is not sure whether it will take advantage of the fire to rob, and now we must make defensive arrangements as soon as possible and prepare to resist the invasion of various forces." The He family must not fall at this time. As long as there is enough time, the head of the family still has the ability to calm down this civil strife. ”
He Shihu nodded heavily, agreeing with He Tengxiao's opinion: "It is indeed necessary to buy time for the head of the family as soon as possible." ”
He Fangxiong still enjoys a high prestige in the clan, and only by gaining enough time, He Tengxiao believes that He Fangxiong still has the ability to quell this civil strife.
"The Qin army is the army of the imperial court, the military discipline is very strict, Peng Chaodong is also a person who understands the general situation, the Qin army will not rashly attack my He family, the Qin army took advantage of the civil strife of the He clan to rashly attack the city, and Peng Chaodong on the court side can't explain it, but the Huang clan has coveted my He clan for a long time, and encountered such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity as the civil strife of my He clan. The Huang clan will definitely do whatever it takes to weaken my He family, the Huang clan, we need to be careful and be extra vigilant. He Tengxiao said.
"What about the Liao army?!"
He Shihu is most worried about the Liao army, the Qin army will not use troops easily, and the He and Huang people are half a catty. With a strong fortress in the city, He Shihu was absolutely sure to drag on for a while. However, against the Liao army, He Shihu was not sure, and the strength of the Liao army was well proven in the previous wars.
"That's what worries me the most." He Tengxiao sighed softly, "My biggest headache is also that I am worried that the Liao army will take the opportunity to go south, and if the Liao army goes south, I am afraid that my He clan will be in danger of extinction." ”
He Shihu was angry and wanted to tear up the military urgency in his hand, and He Shibao just made a move at this time, which was to make things worse for the He family!
Seeing this, He Tengxiao persuaded He Fangxiong and said: "Second uncle, don't worry, Teng Xiao may have an idea, maybe you can give it a try." ”
He Fangxiong turned around and went home, rubbed his head, and said, "What an idea, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
"The Wu people still have nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses, and the Wu people are stationed north of my Gaizhou City, so I will immediately set off to the Wu people to persuade Wu Tingzhen to drag down the Liao army." He Tengxiao said.
Wu Clan! By the way, there is also the Wu family! He Shihu almost ignored the Wu family, and he didn't want He Shihu, after Wu Tingzhen obtained a place to live, he has been very low-key, almost being a man with his tail between his legs, and trying to survive in the cracks of major forces. Without He Tengxiao's reminder, He Shihu almost ignored the existence of the Wu family.
After the thirteenth year of the Liaodong War in Zhenyuan, the strength of the Wu people was greatly damaged. The current Wu clan does not have the strength to swallow the He clan, Wu Tingzhen is still flawless to protect himself, how can he have the heart to annex the He clan? Even if Wu Tingzhen is ambitious, I'm afraid that he doesn't have such good teeth to gnaw on the fat of the He family.
Moreover, it was He Tengxiao who persuaded He Fangxiong to leave a place for Wu Tingzhen's Wu clan to survive, He Tengxiao's biological mother, Zhou Wanying is the daughter of the Wu clan, and He Tengxiao and the Wu clan still have some blood relatives. He Tengxiao went to the Wu clan to persuade Wu Tingzhen to help drag down the Liao army, and the probability of success was very high.
You can borrow the Wu people!
"Wu family, it is naturally best to borrow the power of the Wu family, to lobby the Wu family, I am afraid that our old He family, there is no more suitable person than you He Tengxiao." He Shihu's tense expression finally relaxed.
"I can go, but I can't go empty-handed." He Tengxiao looked at He Shihu's soothing face and said.
"Haha, that's nature." He Shihu nodded and smiled, he knew very well what He Tengxiao meant...... (To be continued.) )
