At night, the lights in Caozhou Taishou Mansion are brilliant, singing and dancing. Ji Qingchen, the governor of the Northern Liao Metropolitan and the general manager of the Northern Liao Xingying Camp, was sitting at the head of the banquet to enjoy the feast, and his next head Caozhou Taishou Fang Datong was accompanied by a respectful face, and from time to time he persuaded him to drink, the two talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

And just as Ji Qingchen was enjoying a roasted golden brown leg of lamb with a faint meat fragrance, he saw Bai Xiangcheng walk into the hall proudly.

"Your Highness—" Bai Xiangcheng said to Ji Qingchen, "The Black Eagle Cavalry has been reorganized, and it will be able to practice tomorrow." ”

"Oh—Brother Xiang Cheng, come, eat quickly, we'll talk about the Black Eagle Ride later." Ji Qingchen pointed to his lower seat and said to Bai Xiangcheng with a smile.

"Your Highness!" Bai Xiangcheng was also not polite, and sat down directly to the bottom of Ji Qingchen, where wine and vegetables and a roasted golden leg of mutton had already been arranged. Bai Xiangcheng first toasted Ji Qingchen with a glass of wine, and began to eat by himself, his eating appearance was much better than Huang Taiji Swen on the side, grasping the leg of mutton with one hand, cutting the meat with a knife with the other, and then dipping his head in the sauce and putting it in his mouth. And the eating appearance of Huang Taiji in the lower position of him is a little ugly, he is holding the leg of mutton with both hands is a big mouth and gnawing, without a knife at all, so that Fang Datong, who was sitting with him, secretly laughed at the Beirong barbarian, who was really vulgar.

"Brother Xiang Cheng, how many people have been killed today!" Ji Qingchen asked calmly.

As soon as these words came out, the face of Fang Datong, who was sitting with him, twitched, and he also got the news that Bai Xiangcheng was killing in the cavalry camp in the west of the city, but he didn't expect that when he killed so many generals, such a big event was put in the eyes of the king and general of Northern Liao who ate and ate his sven, they were so accustomed to what they said, it was like killing dozens of pigs, and Fang Datong was a little dizzy at this shock.

"Twenty-nine, thirteen generals, and sixteen cavalry captains." Bai Xiangcheng said.

"It's a little little!" Ji Qingchen drank a glass of wine and sighed.

Rumble! Caozhou Taishou Fang Datong was shocked again, and his internal organs were about to vomit out! Killed thirteen generals and sixteen cavalry captains at once, and this is still less killing?

"The cavalry battalion in the east of the city is very cooperative, and Xiang Cheng spared their lives." Bai Xiangcheng said.

"That's fine, let them atone for their sins!" Ji Qingchen said.

With this conversation, Cao Zhou Taishou Fang Datong, who was sitting with him, was even more cautious, and treated Ji Qingchen respectfully like a dog. Because he is not stupid, the power of the king of Northern Liao in front of him is beyond his imagination, and he can kill the generals in the army casually, which is still in wartime, wouldn't it be easier to kill a Taishou like him?

Thinking about it like this, he couldn't help but admire his foresight, and arranged a larger and more gorgeous residence for the king of Northern Liao than the current Northern Liao camp. I have to feel complacent about inviting Ji Qingchen to dinner tonight.

After Ji Qingchen and the three of them finished eating, they left Caozhou Taishou, because he still had a military meeting to hold. Fang Datong naturally knew that Ji Qingchen wanted to discuss the military situation with the generals tonight, so he didn't keep it, but just sent Ji Qingchen out of the gate. On the way to the camp of Northern Liao, Ji Qingchen and Bai Xiangcheng rode side by side, and Huang Taiji and four hundred guards acted as Ji Qingchen's personal guards, following closely behind him.

"Brother Xiang Cheng, do you think the Black Eagle Rider can fight?" Ji Qingchen asked, his tone was very solemn, not like the relaxed freehand when he was in Taishou Mansion just now.

Bai Xiangcheng didn't answer immediately, and after a deep sigh, he said, "It's worth a battle, but the losses will be a little bigger." ”

"It's good to be able to fight, it's not a problem to lose a lot, if they don't experience a baptism of war, how can they deal with the Beirong cavalry?" Ji Qingchen said, as if he had decided in his heart to let the Black Eagle ride out of the city to fight.

Bai Xiangcheng didn't speak, he agreed with Ji Qingchen's words, because in his thinking, whether it was reorganization or drilling, this Black Eagle Cavalry could not be regarded as a qualified cavalry if it did not pass actual combat, at least in his eyes.

"Then you can act tonight!" Ji Qingchen said.

"No!" Bai Xiangcheng received the order.

At this time, the bright moonlight was already hanging in the sky, and half an hour had passed since Ji Qingchen's prescribed time, but the two were still walking and chatting on the street, and it seemed that they had long forgotten that a group of generals were waiting for them in the hall. In fact, it's not that Ji Qingchen has a bad memory and forgets the time, but he is deliberately late, the purpose is to give the group in the current Northern Liao Xingying a chance to discuss with each other, after all, Bai Xiangcheng killed more than 20 people in one bite in the afternoon, Wei Quanxing, Xiang Ziyu, and Xu Zizhang are no matter how open and secret they fight, but at this time, they may join forces to deal with him, he just wants to give this group of people a chance to discuss against him, because he is not afraid at all that Wei Quanxing, Xiang Ziyu and Xu Zizhang want to join forces to deal with him, He was still vaguely looking forward to it. Because he had obtained the privilege from Emperor Yan before he set out on the expedition, he could behead the general Taishou at will, and now if he wants to establish authority in Caozhou, he still needs the head of a general with status and prestige. He was waiting for this opportunity.

And just as Ji Qingchen thought, in the meeting hall of the Northern Liao Xingying Xingyuan, Wei Quanxing, Xu Zizhang, Xiang Ziyu, Meng Li, Fang Wanqi and Xu Dachun, who had been waiting for him for a long time, saw that the king of Northern Liao was late, and their faces became a little gloomy, coupled with the complaints of the generals below, everyone's hearts became more and more depressed.

I heard Wei Quanxing say, "Everyone, the chief manager hasn't arrived yet, do you want to send someone to take a look?" ”

"What do you see, he is singing and dancing with Fang Datong in the Taishou Mansion, I'm afraid he has long forgotten what he said about discussing the military situation at night!" The person who spoke was Xu Dachun's subordinates, just today General Xu in the Chengxi Cavalry Battalion, his surname is Xu, his name is Sanshui, and he has no cordial relationship with Xu Da, but he has a cowardly personality and is more obedient, so he will be put in the position of the chief general of the Chengxi Cavalry Battalion by Xu Dachun, to put it bluntly, he is a puppet character, but now there are brothers Xu Dachun and Xu Zizhang, this is his top boss, he has long forgotten the miserable appearance of his frightened ass urine in the military camp in the afternoon, and began to agitate the generals in the hall, the intention is obviously to target Ji Qingchen.

"Yes! How can you be like this as the head of the line! only cares about eating, drinking, and having fun, regardless of the urgency of the military situation. If so, how will this battle be fought? ”

"Yes, now that Caozhou City is in danger, how can we let him command the army?"

"No, we have to go to the imperial court, or let General Wei lead the army."

Seeing that Xu Sanshui's bosses Xu Dachun and Xu Zizhang did not yell at Xu Sanshui's disrespectful words, and many generals were encouraged, they began to openly count Ji Qingchen's mistakes.

However, Xu Zizhang, Xiang Ziyu, Meng Li, Fang Wanqi and Xu Dachun, who were sitting in the first place, were still silent.

This made Wei Quanxing a little strange, he wondered if these people didn't have any opinion in their hearts about Ji Qingchen wanting to take away their military power so quickly? Xu Dachun, who especially made him feel abnormal, was still shouting at noon to threaten Ji Qingchen, trying to force this young Beiliao to retract the order to reorganize the Black Eagle Cavalry, but why is he silent now? Could it be that he was frightened by the incident of the cavalry battalion in the west of the city in the afternoon? That's not right! Xu Dachun is known as the butcher of Xu in Yanmen Pass, he is a murderous and cruel master, it is impossible to be frightened by such a little bit of blood, Wei Quanxing is puzzled!

Could it be that they all submitted to the king of Northern Liao? Wei Quanxing was excited for a while, and immediately turned his attention to his henchman Fang Wanqi, who used to be the chief manager of the Northern Liao Xing Camp, the reason why he was able to compete with Xu Zizhang, the deputy general and Xiang Ziyu, the Black Eagle Cavalry Commander, was because of Fang Wanqi, the infantry general, and the 40,000 foot soldiers in Fang Wanqi's hands, and Xiang Ziyu, Meng Li, and Xu Zizhang's brothers had Black Eagle Cavalry, which made the three of them stand on three legs in the Northern Liao Xing Camp, if their henchman Fang Wanqi also fell to the King of Northern Liao, then he would be finished.

Fortunately, seeing that Fang Wanqi was just silent and respectfully replied to his gaze, this made Wei Quanxing breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, because of the acquiescence of everyone in the hall, the generals below became bolder, and everyone shouted that they wanted to force Ji Qingchen into the palace, and wanted to drive Ji Qingchen, the chief manager who had just arrived in Caozhou for less than a day, back to King's Landing.

Suddenly, just as everyone was talking loudly and the atmosphere was extremely warm, the hall fell silent. The generals who had just spoken loudly and shamelessly closed their mouths at once, lowered their heads, and obediently sat down in their positions.

Because Ji Qingchen, Bai Xiangcheng and Huang Taiji arrived in the hall. Wei Quanxing and Xiang Ziyu hurriedly got up to greet each other, and Ji Qingchen walked to the main seat and sat down, and said with a smile, "How are you discussing?" What method are you going to use to force the palace to this duke, and then what method to drive this king back to King's Landing City? ”

"Your Highness, it's not that we want to force the palace, it's just that the big war is imminent, and what Your Highness has done is difficult to convince the public, everyone just said what was in their hearts." Xu Sanshui is worthy of being the person who Xu Dachun likes, and at this time, he still spoke out against Ji Qingchen.

"Huh—when is this general?" Ji Qingchen asked with a smile, with a kind face.

"The last general, Xu Sanshui, the commander of the cavalry battalion in the west of the city." Xu Sanshui replied quite smugly.

"Not bad! Not bad! Ji Qingchen nodded, with a strong smile on his face.

Seeing that Xu Sanshui was in opposition to the young King of Northern Liao, and the young King of Northern Liao obviously did not dare to do anything to Xu Sanshui, many generals were bold, so they said, "When His Royal Highness first arrived in Caozhou City, he went to Taishou Mansion to sing and dance, which really disappointed the brothers, and we all felt that His Royal Highness was not suitable to lead the army of the Northern Liao Xingying Camp, and asked His Highness to write to the court and hand over the military power to General Wei." ”

They called Ji Qingchen His Royal Highness instead of the rank of chief manager in the army, and still called Wei Quanxing the chief manager, which shows that they do not agree with Ji Qingchen.

"The general is?" Ji Qingchen asked with a smile.

"The last general, the Northern Liao Xingying, the military affairs Sima Zheng Su." The general replied. With the introduction of Xu Sanshui and Zheng Su, many generals spoke, and the goal was the same as Ji Qingchen, that is, he was not suitable to lead the army, so that Ji Qingchen let go of his military power and hand over his military power to Wei Quanxing.

And there are eight generals who speak with a tough attitude like this.

Although they are low-level officers, they are still a lot of strength.

"Wei Changshi, Xu Sima, General Xiang, what do you think?" Ji Qingchen smiled at Wei Quanxing, Xu Zizhang and Xiang Ziyu, these three people are the three giants of the Northern Liao Xingying Xingyuan.

"It's up to the Grand Governor to decide!" Without waiting for Wei Quanxing to speak, Xu Zizhang first said, "However, from the perspective of the last general, Xu Sanshui and Zheng Su bewitched the public, and wanted to encourage the generals of the Northern Liao Army to rebel, and they should be beheaded to show the public as an example." ”

Nima!

That's a lot of weight!

As soon as Xu Sanshui below heard Xu Zizhang's words, he almost fainted. And Zheng Su also looked at Wei Quanxing with a pale face, and his eyes were full of fear.

"The Beirong army is coming to the city, Xu Sanshui and Zheng Su are not right, and they want to trick the generals into plotting against them, so they should be beheaded!" Xiang Ziyu said in a calm tone.

You—uncle!

As soon as these words came out, they were sentenced to death for three people!

Because Xu Zizhang and Xiang Ziyudou of the Big Three said that they were beheaded to show the public as an example, can Wei Quanxing still cover up? Can you still take refuge?

Sure enough, Wei Quanxing said with a blushing face, "But it will be executed by the Grand Administrator!" ”

"Mr. Wei—"

"Deputy Chief Xu-" Xu Sanshui and Zheng Su immediately asked their immediate superiors for help, but it was too late. I heard Ji Qingchen shouting in a fierce voice, "The Beirong soldiers are coming to the city, you don't think about how to defend the city and defend the country, but you want to confuse the people with evil words, and want to bewitch your colleagues in the army with the intention of usurping the military power. ”

"Huang Taiji, take them down and cut them off, and hang their heads in the cavalry camp in the east of the city to set an example!" Ji Qingchen ordered.

"Yes." Huang Taiji received the order. Dozens of Beirong cavalry rushed up to the hall, tied up the general who had vowed to force Gong Ji Qingchen to return the military power just now, ignored the call of the congregation generals, and pulled them to the courtyard outside the hall.

It's so ruthless!

This is even more ruthless than the White Devil!

It's so spicy!

Don't leave any mercy at all!

Wei Quanxing's face had long been pale, and he had long since lost his calmness just now. Xu Zizhang and Xiang Ziyu are very calm, Meng Li and Fang Wanqi's eyes are full of awe, and Xu Dachun is face is resolute, because the ruthlessness of the cavalry battalion in the west of the city is the means of Bai Xiangcheng, so now Ji Qingchen's performance has really conquered the heart of this military general known as Xu Butcher, and strengthened Xu Dachun's belief in following Ji Qingchen, because in Xu Dachun's view, Ci is not in charge of the army, and now Ji Qingchen is not only ruthless, but also has a faint overlord on his body, This is definitely the master followed by a fierce general like him who is eager to make meritorious deeds and unscrupulous means.

To say that in his study, the advice of his eldest brother Xu Zizhang was the result of his passive acceptance. Now follow Ji Qingchen's decision that he made willingly.

Suddenly, just when the hall fell into silence and everyone was thinking about their own thoughts, Xu Dachun knelt down to Ji Qingchen and said, "In the first battle of Yanmen, Xu Dachun was guilty of dereliction of duty as a cavalry deputy general, and the cavalry battalion in the west of Caozhou City blatantly disrespected His Royal Highness's orders, Xu Dachun was guilty of not being strict with His Royal Highness, Xu Dachun asked for the crime, and asked the chief manager to punish him!" ”

Rao is Ji Qingchen is calm enough, but Xu Dachun pleaded guilty to him in front of everyone, which also surprised him, but this is definitely a good thing for him, Xu Dachun's initiative to plead guilty is equivalent to giving him a step that can not be held accountable for the crime of the head of the Northern Liao Xing Camp, after all, it is impossible for him to see Wei Quanxing and Xiang Ziyu and other six people all cut down, and it is not a way to kill such a group. So the overjoyed Ji Qingchen tried his best to suppress his joy, stepped forward to personally help Xu Dachun, and said with a smile, "The first battle of Yanmen was not the fault of the general alone, but General Xu dared to act and deserved to be a model for the soldiers of Dayan." Please rest assured that General Xu will make it clear to his father in detail, so that the general will make meritorious service and atone for his sins. ”

"Thank you, Archmaster! Xu Dachun will swear to follow His Royal Highness to fight Beirong and fight to the death! Xu Dachun said loudly, this is a naked expression of loyalty.

"Good! All right! With the help of the general, the enemy outside Caozhou City is just around the corner! General Xu, please be seated! Ji Qingchen helped Xu Dachun to his seat, he was a corporal of Lixian, and he was like two people like the demon king who killed people just now.

Xu Dachun's loyalty to Wei Quanxing on the side, Wei Quanxing never thought that Xu Dachun, who had always been rude and fierce, dared to pull out a knife in front of Xiang Ziyu, who was known as the Great Yan Divine Bow, took the initiative to confess his mistakes to the young King of Northern Liao today to express his loyalty, and made such a spineless move, let alone others?

Sure enough, seeing that Xu Dachun took the initiative to admit guilt and was forgiven by Ji Qingchen, Fang Wanqi on the side was not calm, and General Fang saw that Wei Quanxing was already in the waning days, so he immediately changed his position and knelt down to ask Ji Qingchen for guilt like Xu Dachun.

For such a person who knows the times, the chief manager Ji Qingchen naturally treats him with courtesy, and politely helps Fang Wanqi to sit down, and tells Fang Wanqi that he can make meritorious service and atone for his sins. Fang Wanqi was grateful, and hurriedly expressed his loyalty to Ji Qingchen, and the chief manager Ji Qingchen calmly accepted Fang Wanqi's surrender.

In an instant, two loyal subordinates were accepted.

Then seeing that Xiang Ziyu, Meng Li and Xu Zizhang didn't say anything, and Ji Qingchen didn't force the two, as long as the three of them didn't interfere in his military affairs, he waved his hand to the Beirong soldiers who were still holding bloody heads and asked them to retreat, and said, "Everyone, now let's discuss the military situation!" ”

"No!" The main general said in unison, no longer daring to disobey Ji Qingchen's order.

At this point, Ji Qingchen can be regarded as truly controlling the power of Caozhou City's soldiers and horses, and has become a veritable chief manager.
