Chapter 1334: Foolish Loyalty
The Hall of the Jerusalem Governor's House. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"How's the army doing?" Alex asked.
At this time, there was only one in the hall besides Alex, her henchman, Rayter.
Lei Teer frowned and said: "The general situation is quite stable, and the army is basically loyal to the master!" However, "
Leiter exuded a deep sense of melancholy.
"Something to say!"
"Yes! Master, Muhammad and his 20,000 men are showing signs of instability! ”
Alex frowned, "Muhammad? ”
Reiter nodded, "Muhammad said everywhere in the army that the king of Jerusalem is the king of Jerusalem and so on!" Our people have already clashed with him many times! ”
Before Leiter's words could be finished, an angry voice came from outside the hall, "It's so hateful! Muhammad is simply going to openly rebel! At the same time, a heavily armored general walked in from outside.
He is Alex's other confidant, Reeds, Reeds and Rett are loyal to Alex and are Alex's most relied on generals.
"Master!" Reeds bowed to Alex.
"No need to be polite! Reedes, did Muhammad do something again? ”
Riddesden looked angry, "Master, Muhammad is inviting the nobles of Jerusalem!" ”
Alex frowned.
Reiter was taken aback.
Reit said hurriedly: "Master, it seems that Muhammad intends to completely fall to the other party!" ”
Alex thought for a moment, then got up and said resolutely: "Since Muhammad is determined to do this, then I cannot let him go!" Give the order to go down and surround Muhammad and his army! ”
"Yes!"
At the same time, Muhammad was looking angry.
"Won't come! Why don't you come? Muhammad asked.
In front of him knelt a man who looked like an officer, the same officer who had recently gone to invite the nobles of Jerusalem. The officer replied: "They said that now is not the time to meet!" ”
"It's not the time to meet! So when are they going to go? ”
"They said not sure!"
"Not sure! Hum! It's all despicable villains! Muhammad scolded angrily.
Then he commanded: "Go again and tell them that if you are not loyal to the royal family of Jerusalem as the people of Jerusalem, you are a rebellion that everyone despises!" ”
The two officers were stunned, and the officer beside Muhammad advised: "General, if you do this, you will not force them too much!" I'm afraid it will backfire! ”
Muhammad snorted coldly, "It's to force them to decide!" Be a loyal servant or be a rebel! ”
Then he shouted at the officer in front of him: "Go! ”
The officer said yes and exited the hall.
Muhammad sat down and rubbed his temples with a headache.
The officer standing aside hesitated for a moment and asked, "General, is it good or bad for us to do this?" ”
Muhammad was stunned for a moment, frowned, glanced at his subordinates, and said unhappily: "How can you have such an idea?" ”
The officer said, "General, I think the king of Jerusalem is just a puppet of the Romans, should we also be loyal to him?" ”
"Presumptuous!" Hammad arose.
The officer's heart sank, and he didn't dare to say anything more.
Muhammad said in a deep voice: "The king of Jerusalem is our king, and we should be loyal to him no matter what!" I don't want to hear anything like that again, understand? ”
"Yes!" The officer was submissive, but his mind remained the same.
Half an hour later.
An officer rushed in with a panicked expression. "General, general, no!" The officer looked panicked.
Muhammad frowned and asked displeasedly, "What's wrong?" You make it clear to me! ”
The officer swallowed his saliva and said urgently: "The master's army surrounds us!" ”
"What?!"
Muhammad suddenly got up, turned to the officer beside him, and ordered: "Immediately send an order to all armies to prepare for battle!" ”
Before he could finish speaking, there was a commotion outside the door.
Muhammad subconsciously had a very bad feeling, "What's going on?" ”
At this moment, one of his own soldiers stumbled in and knelt in front of Muhammad with a thud, "General, they, they have all defected!" ”
"What?!" Muhammad was shocked.
The officer in front of him hurriedly said, "General, hurry up!" Or it's too late! ”
Muhammad frowned, sighed, and nodded.
Just as Muhammad was about to leave, he became elbowed.
The subordinate who had previously raised doubts about his actions against the so-called king of Jerusalem suddenly became attacked. The knife slashed another officer, who was caught off guard, and then placed the knife on Muhammad's neck.
Muhammad's own soldiers were astonished and at a loss for what to do.
"What are you doing?" Muhammad shouted angrily.
The officer glanced at Muhammad, with a hint of apology in his eyes, and then his eyes froze, and he said in a deep voice: "General, I'm sorry!" But we are all soldiers of our masters, and we should not betray our masters! The Wei people have a saying, 'Loyal ministers don't matter to the two masters'! ”
Muhammad sneered, "'Loyal ministers do not matter to the two masters!'" 'Well said! I ask you, is the Lord of Jerusalem Alex? ”
The officer said: "The so-called king of Jerusalem is just a lackey of the Romans, and he is not qualified to be the lord of Jerusalem!" ”
Turning to Muhammad's own soldiers, he said: "Do you choose for yourselves the lackeys of the Romans or to your master?" ”
The soldiers looked at each other, looking at a loss.
At this moment, a large group of people rushed in from outside, led by none other than Alex's henchman Reeds.
Seeing the scene in the hall, Reeds couldn't help but smile and mocked, "What's the matter? Infighting? ”
Then he waved his hand at his men, and a dozen people rushed up to arrest Muhammad. The officer who had taken Muhammad hostage immediately bowed down to Reeds.
Reeds looked at him and asked, "What's your name?" ”
"Back to the general, my name is Liede!"
"Why did you betray?" Reeds asked, with a clear smig of contempt in his eyes.
Led said indifferently: "I didn't betray!" My master is Mistress Alex! I kept advising the general, but he didn't listen to me! ”
"Ridder, you betrayed me, you can enjoy glory and wealth!" Muhammad sneered.
Reedes waved his hand at his subordinates, who understood and immediately ordered Muhammad to be taken down.
Reeds said to Ridder, who was kneeling in front of him, "Get up! The tone didn't smack of mockery like it had just been.
Reedes said, "Although you have not betrayed, you still need to go with me to see your master!" ”
"Yes!"
The lobby of the Jerusalem Governing House.
Alex looked at the few people who were bound and kneeling on the ground, and there was a mixture of mixed flavors in her eyes.
Alex said to Reeds on the side: "Take them to the square and execute them!" ”
Reeds answered, summoned his soldiers, and took Muhammad and his men down.
Alex glanced at Rid, who was standing below Reeds, and her eyes flashed with relief.
"Ridder!"
Liede hurriedly stepped out, "The sinner is here!" ”
Alex said in a harmonious voice, "You are not in the same boat, you don't have to call yourself a sinner!" I should thank you! ”
Ried couldn't help but be terrified, "Don't dare!" ”
Alex thought for a moment and raised her voice: "Rhed did not participate in Muhammad's rebellion, and continued to advise Muhammad during this period!" Loyalty! Therefore he was not punished, and he was promoted to a general, commanding the men of the original Muhammad! ”
Led was shocked and said a little overwhelmed: "Master, I, how can I?" ”
Alex stepped down the stairs, patted Ridd on the shoulder, and encouraged, "You can!" I want you to train this army well! ”
Liede couldn't help but be excited in his heart, and solemnly promised: "The last general will definitely live up to the master's trust!" ”
Alex smiled and nodded.
Soon after, Muhammad and several of his men were beheaded in Jerusalem Square on charges of treason.
This incident made the people of Jerusalem feel that the owner of Jerusalem was the beautiful and strong woman, Alex, and not the so-called king of Jerusalem, who was raised by the Romans.
However, there are still many people who believe that Alex is not qualified to sit in this position, which should be the king of Jerusalem, but they dare not show it, at least not yet.
Five days later, the so-called Jerusalem Restoration Army landed on the northern coast of Jerusalem, led by the Roman general Batra. An army of 150,000 troops lined up north of Jerusalem, and a great battle was imminent.
Skirmishes continue to occur between the vanguard forces of both sides.
Soon after, another 50,000-strong force of the so-called Jerusalem Restoration Army landed here.
At this point, the total number of troops the Romans committed to Jerusalem reached 200,000.
And Alex has 250,000 forces in his hands, but his overall combat strength is obviously inferior to the other party, but if he just wants to hold Jerusalem and the Romans do not increase their troops, then Alex can still hold it.
The two sides faced off at the border for almost a month, but there was no real major battle, and the Romans seemed to be hesitant or waiting for something.
Qinxi Feng Wei army camp.
It was just nightfall, and more than 300 cavalry galloped into the Wei army camp.
Although their attire was no different from that of ordinary Wei cavalry, the momentum made people feel that they were unusual.
Three hundred cavalry came to the outside of the big tent, and Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, who were the commanders of the Western Front, were waiting.
Zhao Yun greeted him, and the knight in the lead jumped off the war horse and hugged his fist at Zhao Yun, "General Zhao!" ”
Zhao Yun returned the salute and said, "General Yan! ”
It turned out that this was none other than Yan Xing, the most mysterious Yan Xing of the Wei army, and the three hundred knights behind him were the three teams of Jinyi Guards.
Yan Xing hugged his fist at Ma Chao beside Zhao Yun, "General Ma!" ”
Ma Chao returned the salute.
Zhao Yun asked people to take the Jinyi Guards down to rest, and then asked Yan Xing to enter the account. (To be continued.) )
