Chapter Forty-Eight: Metamorphosis (Part 2)
In the firewood room of the mansion, Ning'er, who was tied up, sat on the side, although he struggled several times, but he couldn't move at all, and the two armor soldiers who were guarding here looked out from time to time along the gap, although they didn't know the situation in the hall, but as long as Tian Yu was captured, he would be able to hear the movement soon.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of slamming the door, followed by a muffled low voice from outside the door: "Tian Yu has taken it and summoned us to the main hall quickly." The person at the door said goodbye and left, and the footsteps came from near and far, and he obviously left the firewood room.
The two armor soldiers in the door were overjoyed, and they brutally pulled up the five-flowered Ning Er, and walked towards the door, but at the moment of going out, the lurking people on both sides suddenly burst out, and the dagger pierced through the neck at the same time, covering their mouths and noses.
A masked man standing not far away suddenly stepped forward and gently hugged Ning Er into his arms, instinctively wanting to struggle, but when he heard Gongsun Yi's whispered words, his whole body trembled slightly for a while, and he couldn't cry.
Gently touching the bruises on Ning Er's face, Gongsun Yi was awe-inspiring in his heart, and just said softly: "The injury is in your body, and the pain is in my heart." ”
The armor soldiers beside Gongsun Yi quickly hid the corpse and changed into armor on the ground, and at this time, from several rooms in the distance, a group of armor soldiers came out one after another, and they all stepped forward to bow to Gongsun Yi.
"Lord Gongsun, it's all settled." The leading officer clenched his fists and said.
"Wait on the spot, toss the cup!" Gongsun Yi's tone was cold, and he turned to Ning Er and said softly: "I still have to be wronged by Ning Er." Ning Er crouched in Gongsun Yi's arms and nodded slightly. Gongsun Yi quickly changed into armor, pulled his helmet as low as possible, and walked towards the main hall with another armor with Ning'er.
In the hall, Xiao Ji and several subordinate officers sat around, seeing that his subordinates pressed Ning Er, Xiao Ji waved his hand and said: "Hide in the side pavilion, wait for me to capture Tian Yu in a while, and you will not be too late to come out again." ”
Gongsun Yi saluted slightly, and took Ning'er to the side pavilion of the hall to wait.
After about half an hour, only to hear movement in the hall, Gongsun Yi looked along the gap, only to see Tian Yu coming alone, dressed in plain clothes, without carrying a blade, coldly confronting Xiao Ji and others.
"Lord Tian, you're finally here!" Xiao Ji suddenly stood up and drew his saber, and the surrounding officers also drew their blades, staring at Tian Yu coldly, and Gong Xiu, the military candidate, was holding a wine glass in his hand, throwing the glass as a signal, so as to summon the hidden knife and axe hands in the surrounding rooms.
"This is not the place for you." Tian Yu's tone was light, and his eyes were very complicated when he looked at Xiao Ji, as if he was resentful, but more helpless.
This was a loyal general, Tian Yu originally planned to appoint it well, but unfortunately, as the scale of the Xiao cavalry army became larger and larger, Xiao Ji's ambition continued to expand, and he was no longer willing to surrender to Tian Yu's hands.
"Lord Tian, when you die, I will control the Xiao Cavalry Army, sweep away the surrounding counties and occupy the land as the king, and continue to expand my power, it won't take a few years, even the bullshit puppet emperor of Naluodu can't do anything to me, I want to take a group of brothers to make contributions, but I won't be a shrinking turtle here."
"If you control the Xiao cavalry army, within a year, it will inevitably be destroyed, you shouldn't send someone to assassinate Lord Gongsun, you shouldn't attack and kill the officers who oppose you, you should not be greedy for military salaries, act recklessly, and you shouldn't come here to disturb Miss Ning'er."
Xiao Ji laughed angrily, looked at Tian Yu and laughed wildly: "I said Tian Yu, have you not woken up yet, now you are fish and I am a knife, as long as I give an order, I will cut you into meat sauce!" ”
With a crisp bang, the wine glass in Gong Xiu's hand slammed into the ground, and it was suddenly torn apart, and the sound of dense footsteps came from far and near, and soon a group of armor soldiers holding sharp battle axes filled the hall in an instant.
"Bring that slut out for me!" Xiao Ji sneered and stared at Tian Yu to give orders.
It's just that I haven't seen the armor soldier bring Ning Er out for a long time, seeing Xiao Ji's gloomy face, Gong Xiu, the military candidate on the side, was shocked, and hurriedly pushed open the door of the side pavilion and scolded: "I'm deaf, come out for me!" ”
Gongsun Yi's eyes were cold, he pulled his helmet down slightly, and walked outside with this Ning'er, a group of knife and axe hands with sharp blades made a way, and Ning'er quickly came to everyone.
Tian Yu saw the bruises on Ning Er's face, and suddenly changed color, looking at the armor beside Ning Er a little uneasy, when Gongsun Yi was the new Tian Yu, Ning Er was arranged in the mansion, and now that he has been so wronged, how can Lord Gongsun give up.
"Come on, break that slut's hands and tendons for me!" Xiao Ji sneered, to let Tian Yu watch the people he cared about being tortured, anyway, everything is under control, all the grievances these days have made Xiao Ji almost crazy.
Tian Yu's eyes were cold, murderous, and the aura of being in the top position for a long time made Xiao Ji's heart flustered for a while, Tian Yu's tone became more and more cold, and he said word by word: "If you lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to leave that day, maybe this official will let you go in the old feelings, but it is a pity that you are killing yourself." ”
Xiao Ji looked at Tian Yu in a daze, and suddenly found that the surrounding armor soldiers actually ignored his orders, and in a fit of rage, he yelled at Gong Xiu: "You give it to me!" ”
Gong Xiu was also stunned, but he didn't expect these armorers around him to hold sharp battle axes not move at all, and his heart was throbbing, but he still pulled out his dagger and headed towards Ning Er.
Just as he was about to stretch out his arm to pull it, Gongsun Yi, who was standing beside Ning Er, suddenly drew his knife, and the cold light flashed, and Gong Xiu's palm was broken at the wrist.
Blood splattered, Gong Xiu screamed and covered his arms and lay on the ground wailing**, Xiao Ji was frightened, and was just about to draw a knife, when suddenly Pang Yi, the head of the tun behind him, suddenly burst out.
The sharp ring-headed knife cut off Xiao Ji's head at the neck in an instant, and his head rolled out of the distance, and the corpse that lost his head and kept spraying blood weakened his legs and fell to the ground, and a rich bloody aura filled the entire hall.
Gently hugging Ning'er, who was constantly trembling with fear, Gongsun Yi looked indifferently at the dead Xiao Ji and Gong Xiu who was wailing in pain on the ground.
"Lord Gongsun, Lord Tian, failed to protect Miss Ning'er, and will be willing to be punished in the end."
Pang Yi hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, Pang Yi was an undercover agent planted by Tian Yu next to Xiao Ji, it was a great achievement to kill Xiao Ji, but the bruises on Ning Er's face, coupled with Gongsun Yi's murderous eyes at this time, even Tian Yu didn't know how to speak, and even he couldn't escape the blame.
"What are you doing in a daze, crucify all these damned people in front of the city gate, and you won't be able to collect the corpses for 100 days!" The deceased is the greatest, and Gongsun Yi's execution like this is really too cruel.
"Young master, these people deserve death, as long as they are beheaded, there is no need to nail the city gate before, the dead are big, and the corpse must not be moved lightly, otherwise it will inevitably attract verbal criticism, which is very unfavorable to my cavalry!"
Although Tian Yu knew very well that Gongsun Yi was furious at this time, if he was not careful, it was very likely that he would have to inherit Gongsun Yi's thunderous anger.
Once Gongsun Yi thinks that he Tian Yu is interceding for Xiao Ji and others, it is very likely to lead to murder, but it is the responsibility to advise the lord for the general, Tian Yu can only persuade hard, and he has prepared for the worst in his heart.
"What, waiting for me to do it myself?" Gongsun Yi coldly swept the surrounding knife and axe hands.
The swordsmen and axe hands were shocked, although they had heard of the name of Gongsun Yi earlier, and they had also seen it from afar in the military camp, but when they saw it today, the powerful power exuded by the whole body really shouldn't have appeared on a young man.
Not daring to hesitate for a moment, a group of sword and axe men immediately stepped forward to set up the officers who had collapsed to the ground with pale faces and Gong Xiu, who was dying, and walked outside.
"General Tian, maybe you're right, but don't forget, for generals, obey orders first." Gongsun Yi gently comforted Ning Er, and said to Tian Yu in a flat tone.
Tian Yu hurriedly knelt down to receive the order, and his heart was touched, this is a warning and a concern, the exhortation just now has made Gongsun Yi displeased, but it is obvious that Gongsun Yi forgave him, these words are just a kind reminder.
Although Tian Yu heard that the young master of Gongsun was spared and escaped when the nearly 10,000 northern army was destroyed, Tian Yu did not know what he experienced later.
At this moment, when he saw Gongsun Yi's unsettling transformation, Tian Yu clearly realized that the cheerful and gentle young man before was long gone, and now he was no longer following the young master, but the real master.
Although Tian Yu admires the former Gongsun Yi more, only by following the current lord can he really make meritorious contributions, and he is kind and does not lead soldiers and does not raise wealth, which is exactly this reason.
Suozao County changed hands, and everyone was in danger for a while, but Tian Yu quickly clarified that all the laws of unifying the land were in accordance with the orders of Lord Gongsun, and after Gongsun Yi returned to take charge of the Xiao cavalry army, everything was still the same, and began to implement the tuntian system, using soldiers and displaced people to reclaim wasteland.
And stipulate that every 50 people in the Mintun are a tun, and the military is placed in the tun, and there is a Sima on it, not affiliated with the county, and the harvest is divided with the Xiao cavalry, and the official ox is used, and the official is six into the people, and the people are divided between the government and the people, and the people of Tuntian are not allowed to leave the tuntian casually, and the army is a soldier in the tun day, and sixty people are a battalion, while guarding the tuntian.
Gongsun Yi's set of tuntian system, completely copied the achievements of the later Wei State, since the implementation of the effect is remarkable, to a large extent to solve the dilemma of the homeless people to work, not only alleviate the contradictions, and rush to prepare military rations, for a while the cavalry soldiers are full of food.
In the first year of the early Han Dynasty, at the beginning of 190 A.D., Gongsun Yi inherited all the gold seals and purple ribbons in front of Dong Chong's body, led himself to the hussar general, and sent a letter to various places, stating Dong Zhuo's evil deeds, and contacting local state pastors, assassins and Taishou to crusade against Dong Zhuo.
Gongsun Yi re-took charge of the Xiao cavalry army, led the hussar general and issued the news of the text, which soon spread all over the north and south of the river, and soon the north and south of the river rose together, a total of 11 local armies joined, and Yuan Shao was promoted as the leader of the alliance, known as the "Kwantung Army" in history.
