Chapter 9: Controlling the Army
At nightfall, a full moon hangs in the sky, emitting a soft glow.
Barracks, the big tent of the Chinese army.
Tonight, tables were neatly placed in the tent. On every desk, there are sumptuous drinks and meat. Wang Yan sat on the main seat in the center, his eyes swept over the layout in the tent, and his face rose with a touch of anticipation.
Huang Zhong and Yang He walked in and saluted, "My lord, Yiqiē is ready."
Wang Yan said: "Sit down and wait for Zhou Zhen, Yu Xiong and others to go to the banquet." ”
Huang Zhong and Yang He sat down and waited quietly.
About a quarter of an hour later, there was a cacophony of voices outside the tent. Immediately afterwards, I saw Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong leading, followed by the chief of the two people, Shi Chang and other grassroots generals, all of whom entered one after another.
Wang Yan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Captain Zhou and Captain Yu came just in time, the banquet has just been prepared, let's sit down." ”
"No need!"
Zhou Zhen waved his hand, and his eyes flashed with cold anger.
Wang Yan said: "Your Excellency came to the banquet, why did you do this?" ”
Zhou Zhen said: "I'm not here for the banquet, I'm here to eradicate the traitors." ”
Wang Yan knew that the other party was starting to be difficult, so he pretended not to know and asked, "Where is the traitor?" ”
Zhou Zhen said coldly: "Wang Yan, don't pretend, you are a traitor." You colluded with the Du bandits of Xianmu Peak, do you really think that no one knows? Hmph, I already know about this, and Yu Xiong also knows about it. ”
Wang Yan said with a smile: "Captain Zhou is very powerful, this kind of thing can be found out." ”
Zhou Zhen said: "If people don't know, they can't do it unless they do." Wang Yan, the county order treats you well, but you colluded with the rebels and harmed the people of Nancheng County, and your crime is unforgivable. Today, I want to do no harm to the people. ”
Wang Yan said: "There is no basis for what you say, what about the evidence? ”
Zhou Zhen waved his hand and threw a piece of cloth on the ground, looking arrogant: "See for yourself." ”
Yang He hurriedly picked it up, and then handed it to Wang Yan.
Wang Yan took a cursory glance, and on the cloth, the testimony of the soldiers in the army against Wang Yan was recorded in detail. Such evidence is naturally untenable, but once Zhou Zhen kills Wang Yan, it will be ironclad evidence in the end.
Wang Yan sighed twice and said, "Captain Zhou Baili is really a good means. ”
"General, average!" Zhou Zhen raised his head and shouted, "Someone." ”
"Humble duty!"
The two captains stood up, their chests upright, their expressions grim.
Zhou Zhen shouted: "Wang Yan colluded with the rebels with bad intentions, and he was ordered to take down Wang Yan." Those who dare to resist or obstruct will be killed. ”
"No!"
The two captains replied in unison and walked towards Wang Yan.
"If you don't die, you won't die."
Wang Yan shook his head slightly, only to see that Huang Zhong was already standing in front of Wang Yan, blocking the coming Wu Chang.
A touch of jealousy appeared between Zhou Zhen's eyebrows, and he shouted: "Huang Zhong, Wang Yan deserves to be punished for his crimes." If you dare to resist, you will be killed. Ben will give you a chance to get out of the way immediately. ”
Huang Zhong said disdainfully: "I don't know it's dying until I die, stupid." ”
Zhou Zhen chuckled in his heart, looked around, saw that there were his own people around, and snorted: "Huang Zhong, it's useless to bluff. Since you are obsessed, you can't blame the general. ”
"Zhou Zhen, it should be that you are obsessed, and you can't blame the official for being ruthless." Wang Yan stood tall and shouted, "Where are the soldiers? ”
"Humble duty!"
Uniform voices rushed in from both sides of the tent.
One by one, the soldiers stood solemnly.
Under the candlelight, the steel knife in the soldier's hand flickered with coldness. Originally, Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong surrounded Wang Yan with people, but in the blink of an eye, Wang Yan's people surrounded Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong.
Zhou Zhendeng was stunned and muttered, "You, you, how could you?" ”
Wang Yan said: "How could I have laid an ambush in advance, right?" ”
"Yes!"
Zhou Zhen pursed his lips, his expression hideous and frightened.
Wang Yan said: "During the day, in the school grounds, the official tied you to a stake and deliberately humiliated you, just for now. I had already expected you to move in the evening, so I was waiting for you early. ”
Zhou Zhen's body trembled, and his eyes were full of fear.
Unexpectedly, his actions were expected by the other party early.
Zhou Zhen said in a deep voice: "Win the king and defeat the king, kill me." ”
Yu Xiong's face was full of fear, and he pursed his lips, his expression was gloomy, but there was a hint of hope. In his heart, he still hoped that Wang Yan could raise his noble hand and bypass them once.
Wang Yan smiled and said, "How could I kill you?" I'm new to my post and I'm not fit to kill. ”
"Whew! Call! ”
Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong both breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other, and sensed a chance to survive.
Huang Zhong knew Wang Yan's plan, and he was full of admiration for Wang Yan's strategy. But now, Wang Yan wants to let the tiger return to the mountain, which is definitely a woman's kindness.
Once Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong escaped, the consequences were unimaginable.
Huang Zhong hugged his fists and said: "My lord, if you don't die when you fight a tiger, you will be injured by a tiger, please think twice." ”
When Zhou Zhen heard this, he glared at Huang Zhong viciously and promised: "I don't know Taishan if I have eyes for my humble position, please forgive me." Today's things are all humble and blind to dare to do such a thing. ”
Yu Xiong also said: "The affairs of the adults and the county order will never be mixed with the lowly duties. ”
At this moment, both of them just want to get through the hurdle in front of them.
Wang Yan said: "So, did you falsify evidence to slander the official and colluded with Du Xian?" ”
"Yes, yes, it's a humble job."
Zhou Zhen didn't dare to say much, so he agreed directly.
"The answer is very good, but unfortunately, you are strict people, and you are destined to die." Wang Yan's eyes fell on the people behind Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong, and said, "Whoever kills Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong, this official will let you replace them." If you don't do it, then you will be buried for Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong. ”
In an instant, Zhou Zhen's complexion changed greatly.
Wang Yan's move is really ruthless.
"Ahh
There was a scream, but Zhou Zhen felt a pain in his back. A Wu commander brazenly drew a knife and pierced Zhou Zhen's back, and the tip of the knife pierced the heart, killing him with one blow.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Xiong snorted again, and was also stabbed in the heart by a Wu commander.
In the blink of an eye, the two majestic people in the barracks were killed.
Huang Zhong looked at the scene in front of him, and he was even more shocked.
originally thought that Wang Yan would release Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong, but he didn't expect that Wang Yan already had a plan to deal with it.
Wang Yan's method can be regarded as a real ruthless move.
If Wang Yan asked Huang Zhong's people to kill Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong, then the soldiers under Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong would probably make trouble. Now, Wang Yan asked the henchmen brought by Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong to do it, and they forced these people to a dead end, so that they could only follow Wang Yan.
Such a method made Huang Zhong secretly amazed.
Wang Yan looked at the Wu Commander who killed Zhou Zhen and asked, "What's your name?" ”
"Humble Li Yuan!" Li Yuan replied.
Wang Yan looked at the other person who killed Yu Xiong and said, "What's your name?" ”
"Humble Tang Meng!" Tang Meng replied.
Wang Yan instructed: "From now on, you will take over the positions of Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong. Yang He, bring over the documents I put on the desk, and let Li Yuan and Tang Meng sign and press their fingerprints. ”
"No!"
Yang He turned around and picked up the paperwork from the desk, and brought the inkstone over.
Li Yuan was literate, and when he saw the content of the paperwork, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and he was even more afraid of Wang Yan in his heart. The content of the document is very simple, it is evidence that Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong colluded with Du Xian. Once Li Yuan pressed his fingerprints, he could only obey Wang Yan's command.
The current situation did not allow Li Yuan to resist, so he had to honestly press his fingerprints.
Tang Meng couldn't read a word, but he understood that after killing Yu Xiong, he could only follow Wang Yan, otherwise there was no other way to go. Therefore, he directly pressed his fingerprints.
Then, the rest of the people who followed Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong were also asked to press their fingerprints.
Wang Yan's gaze swept over the people present, and he said in a deep voice: "This official serves as a county lieutenant and is in charge of the army. As long as you obey the order, this official will naturally let you have a good life. If you have two hearts, Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong will be the end. ”
"Humble Li Yuan, meet your lordship."
Li Yuan knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Humble Tang Meng, meet your lordship."
Tang Meng followed and knelt on the ground, kowtowing and saluting.
The rest of the generals knelt on the ground one after another, expressing their willingness to obey Wang Yan's orders. They witnessed Wang Yan's methods of killing Zhou Zhen and Yu Xiong, and they were already too frightened to have any thoughts.
