Chapter 3: The Strength of the Feather is Better Than Poison (2)
Just when Luo Chao led hundreds of Beirong wolf riders to slaughter several generals such as Zhu Cang and Yang Jin, as well as nearly 100 guards, Xie An and the others in the house also heard the thrilling screams and shouts of killing outside the mansion.
The generals present also realized what had happened, and looked at Xie An in shock and anger.
Xie Anxin secretly screamed wronged.
To tell the truth, he didn't think about killing people and seizing power, especially the two of Zhu Cang and Yang Jin, you must know that the two of them are under the command of the general Wu Bang, and they have a lot of prestige in the army, if they kill these two easily, it will inevitably cause a mutiny, therefore, Xie An just played all his lip service, in order to trap the two and force the two to comply, but he never thought that the eldest grandson Xiangyu would kill the two without saying a word.
This crazy woman actually did it......
Now that's a problem......
Xie An glanced at the eldest grandson Xiangyu quietly, but saw that her face was not shocked, and she played with the folding fan in her hand with great interest.
After a disturbing silence, suddenly a blood-stained general ran back with a look of panic, sat back in his original position, and looked at the blood on his body, where the rest of the generals still didn't understand, so that their eyes were full of anger when they looked at Xie An.
Not only that, but their hands had slowly touched the saber at their waists.
At the same time, Yan Kai, Chen Gang, and Xiang Qing also seemed to realize something, and quietly took a few steps forward, protecting Xie An, and clenched the saber at his waist with his right hand.
At this moment, Luo Chao led hundreds of Beirong wolf riders to rush in, and threw several heads in his hands in the house, which were the heads of Zhu Cang, Yang Jin and the rest of the people.
Glancing at the bloody heads, Xie An glanced at the eldest grandson Xiangyu with some displeasure.
At this time, Luo Chao hugged his fist to the eldest grandson Xiangyu, and said in a deep voice, "Those who do not respect the orders of the military advisor and leave the mansion without permission will have all been killed by the general!" β
"All?" The eldest grandson Xiangyu chuckled when he heard this. said lightly, "There is one more!" As she spoke, she raised her right hand and pointed at the general who had fled with the end of her folding fan.
I saw that the general showed a little horror on his face, and hurriedly pulled out the saber on his waist to protect himself. See here. Luo Chao didn't say a word when he heard this, waved his hand, and suddenly, more than a dozen Beirong wolf riders poured out behind him.
is the so-called rabbit dead fox sad. More than a dozen generals in the room had angry expressions on their faces, and they were about to stand up, but they saw the eldest grandson Xiangyu smile faintly.
"Wait, do you decide to die with him? - Or do you think? I'm not going to kill you all? - Who dares to move? β
Looking at the faint smile on the face of the eldest grandson Xiangyu, layers of sweat oozed from the foreheads of the generals, and they watched as the desperate ginseng was hacked to death with a knife and dragged out of the house.
Not long after, inside the door of the house, there was another bloody head.
Glancing around with satisfaction at the remaining dozen or so generals in the room, the eldest grandson Xiangyu looked back at Luo Chao and said lightly, "General Luo." Hang the heads of these people above the city gate, and then write a letter back to Jijing, saying that several people led by Zhu Cang and Yang Jin did not obey the general's orders. If you don't obey discipline, you will commit the following crimes, intending to rebel, and punish the three clans! β
As soon as this statement came out. Everyone in the room was shocked, not to mention the dozen or so generals. Even Xie An, Li Shou and others were stunned.
"Xiangyu ......" Xie An opened his mouth, however, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the eldest grandson Xiangyu.
"Master Xie, how did you promise me before joining the Yanshi?"
Xie An opened his mouth, speechless, hesitated, and said, "But you're too ruthless, aren't you?" β
Hearing this, Eldest Sun Xiangyu smiled faintly and said coldly, "I have already reminded these people, tell them to come back, sit down, and not leave without permission before the unitary time, since they don't follow, then I can't do anything...... General Luo? β
"No!" Luo Chao hugged his fists, lifted those heads, and turned to leave, as for those Beirong wolf riders, they stayed.
I have to say that at this moment, the atmosphere in the room was extremely tense, and the dozen or so generals were all gritting their teeth and looking angry, and their right hands were also holding the saber at their waists.
The eldest grandson Xiangyu clearly saw their actions, slowly stood up, and said lightly, "Don't think that just because you are the general of the army, the little woman will compromise with you and others, and tell you plainly, even if you are left alone, the little woman will still order the crossbowmen to shoot you all!" -- Count you as smart and aware of current affairs! β
Hey, hey, you're going to add fuel to the fire?
Looking at the generals in the room with their heads lowered and secretly clenched their fists, Xie An felt a chill in his back.
"What? Not convinced? Giggling, the eldest grandson Xiangyu picked up a thick roster book from his desk, threw it in front of those generals, and said coldly, "Do you know what this thing is?" -- This is the little woman from the military department, the list of the first two expeditions to Luoyang, it is clearly written your name, place of origin, relatives, don't bother to guess, the little woman is threatening you and so on, obedient and obedient, the little woman can make you soar, great achievements, disobedient, the little woman will let you be the same as Zhu Cang, Yang Jin, the two guys, tell you to wait even if you die, but also implicate your family and bear the infamy! β
ββ¦β¦β
"Remember, my eldest grandson Xiangyu uses soldiers, and he doesn't need self-righteous generals! - Even if you don't have one left, I can still wipe out the rebels! - So, you'd better be obedient! Speaking of this, the eldest grandson Xiangyu suddenly turned his head to look at a general with a fierce look in his eyes, and chuckled, "The little woman just heard it, you said you are Liu Yi, right?" Liu Yi from Daishan County? The family lives in Changkou County, Daishan County, and in addition to his father, he also has a wife and children...... Hey, Liu Yi, do you have any dissatisfaction? β
Liu Yi, whose face was full of shock, opened his mouth, not daring to make any moves.
But even so, the eldest grandson Xiangyu was still not satisfied, and asked with a sneer, "Liu Yi, this military division is asking you!" β
Because he saw the ruthless methods of the eldest grandson Xiangyu, and the situation in his own family was clearly understood by this woman, the general named Liu Yi did not dare to make a mistake, so he endured the anger in his heart, hugged his fists and said, "The last general will not dare to ......"
"I don't dare to say it, most of my heart is eager to break the corpse of this army division into ten thousand pieces, right? It doesn't matter, you can come and take revenge on your military division, everyone here can do it, but this military division wants to warn you, if you don't do it cleanly and let others know that it was you and others who did it, then not only your family will suffer. Your neighbors will not be spared! β
This woman ...... So ruthless!
The faces of the generals present changed greatly when they heard this, and they looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu with unbelievable eyes.
"Then this military division asks again, are you dissatisfied with this military division killing these disobedient guys? - Speak! β
The generals looked at each other after a slight hesitation. Said with a fist. "Qi Yu military division, the last general, etc...... No complaints! β
"Good!" Flicking his sleeves, the eldest grandson Xiangyu opened the fan in his hand with a snap and said in a deep voice. "In this case, you will go to the city with Yan Kai, Chen Gang, Xiang Qing, and Luo Chao to rectify the whole army. Punished as a crime of rebellion...... The division of this army killed Zhu Cang and Yang Jin, presumably among the 100,000 soldiers, there must be someone who is dissatisfied with the division of this army, and if it is conveyed, if anyone looks at this division is not pleasing to the eye, the life of this division is waiting for him to take it at any time, but it is just ...... If one person commits a crime, the whole camp will be punished! - Zhu San! β
Everyone in the room gasped when they heard this. You must know that there are at least 2,000 people in a battalion, in other words, as long as someone assassinates her eldest grandson Xiangyu, then the soldiers of this battalion are all capital crimes. And it also involves the family.
This woman is not ordinary ruthless......
Even Xie An, who has known the eldest grandson Xiangyu for a long time, looked at her with a look full of strangeness.
The generals in the room looked at each other. Finally, slowly clenched his fists.
"Yes, the last general...... Yes, sir! β
"Go ahead!" The eldest grandson Xiangyu glanced at Yan Kai, Chen Gang and other generals.
As the henchman of Liangqiu Dance. Yan Kai, Chen Gang, Xiang Qing and others seemed to have known the ruthlessness of the eldest grandson Xiangyu, and they were not very surprised to see this, after all, this woman had used the entire 80,000 people in Gaoyang City as bait to defeat the enemy and win!
And now, it's just that less than a hundred people have died, what is it?
Seeing the eldest grandson Xiangyu say this, the generals in the house also knew that their lives were saved, and they breathed a sigh of relief.
In all fairness, it's not that they don't want to avenge their colleagues, after all, although they come from all over the country, they have been together with each other for more than half a year......
The eldest grandson Xiangyu is too ruthless, and her methods are so vicious that they don't dare to offend in the slightest, not to mention exchanging their lives for this woman's life, this is not a bargain in the first place, not to mention implicating family members and bearing the notoriety of rebellion......
In short, just be obedient, why bother to stand up for others?
Tacitly, the more than ten generals glanced at each other, feeling like being reborn after a catastrophe.
Suddenly, the eldest grandson Xiangyu called out to them.
"Wait! - Liu Yi, when the army was reorganized, read the list in front of the whole army! β
Liu Yi is not a fool, how could he not understand the meaning of the eldest grandson Xiangyu, and respectfully picked up the extremely thick roster book that was thrown on the ground.
"The last general obeys!"
"Be obedient, obediently act according to what this military division says, this military division will not treat you badly!"
"Yes!"
Looking at the backs of those people slowly leaving, Xie An couldn't hold back any longer, frowned and looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu and said, "Xiangyu, why do you want to do this?" β
"How did it get to this point?" Hearing this, the eldest grandson Xiangyu chuckled, turned to look at Xie An and Li Shou, and said contemptuously, "I just used the simplest and most convenient way to collect this army of soldiers and horses, did I do something wrong?" -- Zhu Cang and Yang Jin made it clear that they were unwilling to obey, and it was a curse for such people to stay! β
"Yes...... You can persuade each other with good words! β
"Good words?" Eldest Sun Xiangyu smiled slightly, shook his head, and said lightly, "I said that the art of war implemented by my eldest grandson Xiangyu does not need generals!" - I just need obedient pawns! β
"Chess...... Chessman? Xie An frowned and glanced at the eldest grandson Xiangyu.
"Ah, from beginning to end, my eldest grandson Xiangyu will plan this war, I don't need any generals to respond to the situation, I just need them to carry out the orders I have given, this is enough! - I'll take into account the rest! β
"You're really ......" Xie An shook his head, but couldn't say a word.
Facts have proved that everything that Changsun Xiangyu did was indeed the fastest way to seize military power, although after learning that Zhu Cang and Yang Jin were killed, there were many soldiers in Yanshi City who were excited, but when the general named Liu Yi read the name on the roster book in front of the whole army, the atmosphere that permeated the city was that he would not give up without killing Changsun Xiangyu. Suddenly retreated.
In fact, some soldiers who were named and whose addresses and family conditions were read out also sped on their comrades in the first battalion, lest they do stupid things and implicate themselves, or even their own families.
After all, the heads of Zhu Cang and Yang Jin and others. It has been hung on the wall of the east gate of Yanshi.
Say that these generals want to plot a rebellion. The soldiers below didn't believe it, and besides, the eldest grandson Xiangyu didn't stop Liu Yi from telling the truth, on the contrary. She just wants to convey a message to the soldiers below: those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will die!
If Liangqiu Dance's way of governing the army is people-oriented, advocating the cultivation of generals and officers' autonomy and the ability to respond to emergencies, then the eldest grandson Xiangyu pursues it. It is an absolute dictatorship in the way of governing the army.
It may sound ridiculous that you don't need a general's art of war, but in fact, Changsun Xiangyu really doesn't need that kind of general with subjective judgment ability, the so-called general, in her opinion, is just a medium like a soldier under her command to convey orders, will she need their force and strategy? No, not at all!
And that's it. Whether it is Xie An or Li Shou, or the 100,000 soldiers in Yanshi, they have not really seen the way of using troops without generals!
The reorganization of the army was carried out by noon the next day. has almost done it, and the generals who have ended this kind of thing have gone back to the eldest grandson Xiangyu to return to their lives.
At this time, the eldest grandson Xiangyu was standing at a long table in the house. He frowned and looked at the marching chart on the table.
For most of the hour, the woman remained motionless. If she hadn't opened the folding fan from time to time and shook it a few times, the generals who looked at each other next to her would have almost thought that this woman was asleep.
She...... What exactly is being done?
It can be said that among the dozens of people in the house at the moment, only Xie An knows what the woman of the eldest grandson Xiangyu is doing.
She's thinking about a strategy to capture Luoyang!
Some people may think that thinking about strategies doesn't need to draw and write, and calculate some corresponding things?
Ah, the eldest grandson Xiangyu doesn't need it!
Only Xie An knows this, this woman has the ability to remember images, no, it should be said that it is a high-definition video memory ability!
I have to say that in terms of memory, it is already an outstanding ability far beyond ordinary people, and Li Shou's staff Wang Dan, who is far away in Jijing at the moment, has this talent, he can write down a list full of names in half an hour, and write it out silently.
But compared to the eldest grandson Xiangyu, Wang Dan's talent is too far behind, the eldest grandson Xiangyu can not only remember the roster in a short time, but also calculate in an instant how many surnames there are in this roster, and how many people are in each surname.
Even, even if you make a few changes in it, she can find out the changes in a very short time.
It is precisely because of this kind of demonic talent that Xie An wrote the answer when he was competing with the staff of the crown prince Li Wei in the Dasi Nong Zongshi's mansion, and the eldest grandson Xiangyu wrote the answer.
If the people of this era are compared to a single-threaded computer, then Xie An's people in that era are a dual-threaded computer, and Changsun Xiangyu is a dual-core, four-threaded computer, her way of thinking is completely different from ordinary people, she can do several things at the same time, and she can also temporarily stop thinking about something, but after a period of time, continue to think about what she just thought, this kind of almost high-definition video-like memory ability, so that Changsun Xiangyu when conceiving a thing, With an unbelievable sense of three-dimensionality, she is simply able to design a strategy from different angles at the same time, what kind of people will do and what kind of people will be.
To be honest, Xie An never imagined that there would be such a peerless genius in the world whose brain computing is comparable to that of a computer.
However, Xie An understands the eldest grandson Xiangyu, but it does not mean that the rest of the people in the house also understand this ruthless woman, seeing that the eldest grandson Xiangyu did not speak for a long time, Liu Yi, who had just been promoted to a general of five thousand people, said cautiously, "Luoyang City is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the last general thinks that we can lure out the defenders in the city......"
However, before he could finish his words, he was ruthlessly interrupted by the eldest grandson Xiangyu.
"Stupid! - Zhang Dong, the defender of Luoyang, was originally a 2,000-strong general in Nanyang, and he was cautious, how could he easily fall for the scheme? Moreover, Lu Song, the Duke of Nanguo, led 8,000 southern troops to cross Luoyang and go towards Hangu Pass, and this Zhang Dong did not lead the army to chase after him, what does this mean? This shows that he wants to defend Luoyang, in other words, no matter what happens around him, he will not cause the army to go out of the city! β
The generals in the room looked at each other when they heard this, and General Fei Guo asked in surprise, "How does the military advisor know that this Zhang Dong is cautious?" β
The eldest grandson Xiangyu, who was frowning and looking at the marching map, glanced at Fei Guo unhappily, threw a thin roster book on the table to him, and said lightly, "This is the army division from the official department, the archives of the old generals in Nanyang, Luoyang, and Chang'an!" ββZhang Dong...... Page 76, line 3, read! β
Fei Guo looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu in amazement, turned to page seventy-six as she said, and then looked startled, and muttered, "Zhang Dong, a native of Shiyang, Jingzhou, is the eleventh place on the first-class list of the seventeenth year martial arts test of Hongwu...... He is cautious and has made no mistakes in everything since he took office......"
"In short, this strategy is not going to work! ββBy the way, what is the name of the guard in the military camp on the north side of Luoyang? β
The generals of the Western Expeditionary Army in the room glanced at each other, and one of them clenched his fists and said, "This person is called Zhou Liang......"
"Zhou Liang?" The eldest grandson Xiangyu thought slightly, frowned and said, "This person is the garrison general of Luoyang, has he also surrendered to the thief?" β
"This ......" Fei Guo was a little bewildered and flipped through the roster in his hand.
Glancing at Fei Guo's movements, Eldest Sun Xiangyu frowned slightly, and said lightly, "The sixth line on page thirty-six!" β
Fei Guo was slightly startled when he heard this, and turned to the page as the eldest grandson Xiangyu said, and then his face was full of shock.
And the generals who clearly saw the change in his complexion couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
Zhou Liang ...... Hongwu 14 years of martial arts test A list No. ...... ......
"Fifth place!" The eldest grandson Xiangyu took it up with some displeasure, then frowned and looked at the generals in the room, and said with an unswerving face, "Do you know how to write the two words shut up?" β
When the generals heard this, they didn't understand that the eldest grandson Xiangyu was arguing with them, so they immediately shut up and didn't dare to speak again, but when they looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu, their eyes were full of horror.
In fact, not only them, but even Li Shou was stunned.
"Smack!" I don't know how long it took, the eldest grandson Xiangyu suddenly opened the folding fan in his hand, and his face was always straight, and he slowly showed a little smile.
"It's too troublesome to attack the city again and again, so let's sweep away all the rebels in the Luoyang area at once......"
"All...... Sweep it all? The generals in the room looked at each other in disbelief.
That's to conquer three cities and military camps at the same time......
Once?
How can it be?!
