Chapter 526: Military Mutiny (7)
Although it was not a Shaoyue who was escorted, it was Lan Xening, the main person in charge of the Linshui Defense Zone, and Lan Xening was also one of the culprits of the Luoyang riots. In Zhang Xing's view, Lan Xie Ning's arrest as the culprit was not a big deal in itself, but the East King was able to arrest Lan Xie Ning without requisitioning the guards of the East Wang's Mansion and the soldiers of the Yamen of the military station, and Zhang Xing felt that something was wrong.
Whenever there is a disturbance in the city, it should be the military yamen who is responsible, but this time the military yamen is like watching from the wall, and it is not until the people are taken that they know that such things have happened in the city. When Lan Xenin was escorted over, many people present still didn't know what was going on.
At this time, Lan Xie Ning was all gray, as if he had just come out of the fire, and was pressed to the ground without saying a word, and he kept struggling to stand up.
"Your Highness, the person has been obtained, please send it down." A soldier in charge of the escort asked.
"Oh." Han Jian took a sip of tea and said, "Who is here?" ”
"Back to His Highness, this person is Linshui Deputy General Lan Xening."
Han Jian nodded, waved his hand again, and said, "Okay, take people down, this king doesn't want to see such a wolf ambition person, ask on the spot!" ”
"Yes." The soldiers escorted Lan Xenin outside. Lan Xie Ning didn't say a word from beginning to end, and everyone present guessed that it might be that Lan Xie Ning had been beaten off his jaw and couldn't speak.
The person was immediately escorted down, and there was some silence in the entire hall, no one dared to say a word, and they all looked at Han Jian, wondering what would happen next.
After a while, you heard a voice from outside again, there were a lot of generals who were escorted over this time, and most of them were middle-level generals in the army. When the people in the hall saw these people, they immediately thought that these people should not appear here, according to the Eastern Palace. It was these people who were sent by Han Jian to do some special tasks, but now they were escorted over, and they were all covered in bruises, indicating that they might have been tortured.
The men were escorted into the hall and placed on their knees in a row. When Zhang Xing saw these people, his expression became even more solemn. Although none of these people are in less circumstance, many of them are more or less connected to Lesser and Lesser. Before, he also guessed that the Dongwang Mansion had noticed something in the army, but now he had to sigh, it turned out that everything was under the control of the Dongwang, but he was kept in the dark and didn't know at all.
"Your Highness, these people ......" Someone immediately came out to inquire, and there was a little uneasiness in his tone. Few of those present could find out what this meant.
Han Jian smiled and said, "These people." He colluded with traitors and tried to cause chaos in the army, and was detected by the king, so he brought them for interrogation. Don't worry, even if they testify against someone after they have been tortured, this king will not believe it. These people are also wolf ambitions, and what they say and do, this king will not agree with. ”
Han Jian said. Many people present breathed a sigh of relief. After all, these generals have more or less contact with them, and they have a connection. A lot of things are inexplicable, and if these people really bite people indiscriminately, and if they confess, they will all be unable to protect themselves.
When he landed, there were a lot of curses in the hall, and they were all scolding these people for not knowing what to do. This scolding. It is also to dissociate themselves from these people.
"Lao Zhang, these people are all your subordinates, and this king will hand them over to you to deal with." Han Jian smiled and said to Zhang Xing.
Zhang Xing's whole person has already collapsed a little, and now Han Jian doesn't say a word about the military mutiny. He was also wondering in his heart what the progress of Shaoyue's side was. Judging from the current situation, he felt that the chances of success were very small. Dongwang's move was tantamount to blocking the road to the military mutiny, but he couldn't figure out where Dongwang transferred his troops and horses from.
"The subordinates don't dare to make judgments, so it's better to ask the young son to deal with it." Zhang Xing saluted.
Han Jian nodded and said, "Since Lao Zhang said so, this king will not tolerate it." Come on, keep these people straight, push them out and behead! ”
The hall was silent again, and seeing so many people being pushed out and killed, the hearts of those present were still a little shocked. This is different from killing the enemy desperately on the battlefield, killing "their own people", there will always be some personal feelings in people's hearts, thinking that these people may not deserve to die, but now that the East King wants to be solemn, they naturally dare not come out to speak for these people.
The person was escorted out, and soon there was no sound, and no one knew whether the person was killed or moved elsewhere.
The atmosphere in the hall was a little strange, although the hearts of the people present were full of questions, no one dared to come out casually to ask, after all, this involves military secrets, and if you don't do it well, you will violate military law, and it is not what people want.
Han Jian paused, got up and said, "Lao Zhang, the matter is almost over, and it is almost time for this king to go back to his house to rest." ”
Hearing this, everyone present was glad in their hearts, and it was naturally best that things had nothing to do with them, but after all, some people were still weak-minded, after all, not every detail in the army was found out. At the beginning, Han Jian asked Su Tingxia to arrest and interrogate only some middle-level generals and civilian officials in the army, and it would not involve the main power core in the army.
"Young boy, ...... you" Zhang Xing hesitated in his heart, not knowing whether to talk about Shaoyue's problem.
Now Zhang Xing knows very well that Guo Shaoyue is inextricably linked with these people, and when he says it, he is afraid that he will be afraid that Guo Shaoyue will end up beating him up, saying that these things were instructed by him. But if you don't say it, the matter will not end here, Guo Shaoyue is now making trouble outside in the name of following his will, he doesn't know anything about the specific situation, and it is unlikely that Guo Shaoyue will succeed at all. If Guo Shaoyue is defeated and killed, even if the matter of the order is investigated afterwards, he can be said to have stolen it, he is afraid that Guo Shaoyue will be captured, or if there is any evidence in his hand that will point to him, if he doesn't say it, it is tantamount to killing himself.
"Lao Zhang, is there anything else?" Han Jian looked at Zhang Xing and asked.
Zhang Xing smiled bitterly and saluted: "My subordinates respectfully send the young son back to his house." ”
The others immediately followed, and they all wished that Han Jian would leave earlier.
Han Jian smiled, didn't move his steps, but sat down again, and said, "If you think of something, it's not too late to leave after you finish it." Wait, we may see the results in a moment. ”
The hearts of those present also hung again.
Dongwang said that he would not go, as if he was hinting at something, or that he was making some people let their guard down and give a fatal blow. Han Jian's attitude towards Zhang Xing is not bad. But some people still found out that Zhang Xing seemed to be ignorant of Dongwang's actions, that is, these things were done by Dongwang himself, and without the Guò military department, it was impossible to say that the matter was not related to Zhang Xing.
Han Jian continued to sit. After a short while, there was some commotion outside.
The person who was escorted over this time felt a little disheartened after Zhang Xing saw it, and the one who was escorted here was Shaoyue, who had received his military order before and went to transfer troops into the city.
"Situation left envoy? Came at the right time, before this king asked General Zhang where have you been, what's going on? Han Jian looked unconscious, looking at Shaoyue who was pressed to the ground. Asked.
"Back to Your Highness, this person led the troops out of the city to transfer troops, was taken down, and escorted here." The escorted general handed the talisman to Han Jian, "My subordinates suspect that this is a fake talisman, so I have come to ask His Highness for verification." ”
"Oh, it looks like you've done a good job of setting things right anyway." Han Jian glanced at this person and recognized that this person was Wang Qi, who had just been appointed as the deputy general of Luoyang Jing'anmen. This Wang Qi. Also in Su Tingxia's investigation, this person has a close relationship with Guo Shaoyue.
Han Jian narrowed his eyes. It's not that someone else escorted the situation to cross over, but this Wang Qi, there are only two explanations. Either Wang Qi escorted him less and less, not in others, but in order to assassinate him. Either cut the flesh to survive, and prepare to sacrifice the less the situation. And some of the people in the army.
Han Jianxin said, no matter which one it is, the situation in front of him is no different from a dead man, and if you ask him anything, you won't get any results.
"Someone!" Han Jian snorted.
Immediately a sergeant came in, but this time it was a soldier from the barracks. These soldiers were originally Zhang Xing's subordinates, but in such a situation, it was obviously impossible for Zhang Xing to mobilize the overall situation.
"Escort the left envoy down and behead him on the spot." Han Jian said.
The generals present immediately panicked, after all, this time Han Jian killed the left envoy of the army, this is an extremely high official, people were escorted, and they didn't even ask what the military talisman was, they wanted to kill it directly, and the generals below would naturally feel panicked.
"Your Highness, this ...... Is this ...... Should we get to the bottom of it? A general stepped forward to ask for instructions.
Han Jian glanced at this person coldly: "General Sui, could it be that you secretly colluded with the left envoy of the situation to steal the military warrant?" ”
"How dare the last general?" The person who spoke just now hurriedly knelt on the ground, indicating that he had nothing to do with the matter.
"In that case, what do you say? Can't you hear what this king said, pull it down, and behead it on the spot, this kind of person, out of sight and out of mind. Han Jian breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately afterwards, Guo Shaoyue was pulled out of the hall, and the people present looked at each other with a little helplessness and panic, according to Han Jian's way of executing people, maybe when the fire would burn on themselves.
Han Jian finally looked at Zhang Xing, took the talisman in his hand and turned it around, and said, "Old Zhang, why did your talisman appear in the hand of the left envoy of the situation?" ”
Zhang Xing's words were stopped, he was already prepared, if Dongwang really asked him, he would say that he was too young to steal. But this kind of thing, he himself thinks it's too ridiculous, the talisman he carries with him is gone, how can he not know?
"Young boy, this matter ...... Subordinates are responsible for negligence. Zhang Xing saluted respectfully, "The subordinates don't know when the left envoy stole the talisman and almost made a big mistake, and asked the young prince to punish him." ”
"Oh." Han Jian said, "The talismans have been lost, and I'm afraid that you, the commander of the Chinese army, are too derelict in your responsibilities, but there are some things, after all, the flaws are not concealed, Lao Zhang, your merits in the army, this king will naturally remember." ”
When Zhang Xing heard this, he felt that his limit was approaching. At this time, he felt as if he was being played with and applauded, first Shaoyue, and then Dongwang, the matter was not very clear to him, what happened, and he was still in the clouds.
One thing he can be sure of is that this military mutiny would never have happened without his connivance and instruction. Even if he is not the mastermind, he is also the culprit, and it is understandable that the king of the east wants to deal with him.
"Lao Zhang, you have also been in the army for some time, it's time to go back to your hometown to visit your relatives. Although you are guilty, but the sin is not to death, let you return to your hometown, and in the future, you will naturally not be able to treat you badly. Han Jian said.
As soon as Zhang Xing heard this, he immediately saluted and said, "Thank you for the grace of young prince not to kill." ”
"Alright." Han Jian got up and said, "Come on, send General Zhang out." ”
Someone came in immediately, but this time it was not an escort, Zhang Xing was also very knowledgeable, and knew that resisting at this time might be the fate of being killed directly. He just lowered his head and left the hall under the eyes of everyone.
As soon as the people left, everyone present was amazed. The commander of a Chinese army was removed like this, and there seemed to be no sign at all. They were also very confused about what happened overnight, and they thought that they would have to wait until the fact to find out.
In any case, the position of the commander of the Chinese army is vacant, and now the generals in the army, in terms of prestige, naturally have many veterans, but there is no one who can be compared with a general like Zhang Xing who has made great contributions on the battlefield.
Han Jian moved a few steps forward, stood in front of the handsome case, looked at the things on the table, and sighed: "This commander of the Chinese army is the leader in our army, but I didn't expect that he would also be confused." Do you think this king is right or wrong? ”
The people present looked at Han Jian, and no one dared to respond.
It is right to say that it is absurd to remove the commander of the Chinese army when there is nothing very wrong. If it is said that there is a mistake, the coach even lost the warrant, which seems to be an unforgivable mistake.
And Han Jian asked the purpose of this, and they couldn't detect it, so the generals who knew how to see the wind and steer the rudder naturally wouldn't make any comments.
But at this moment, a person said loudly: "Your Highness has made a mistake in handling it. ”
When the people present heard the sound, they all felt a little inexplicable. It was no one else who said this, but Su Tingxia, the right envoy of the army who had been in the army for a short time, who was personally promoted by Han Jian.
"Oh? Su Youe, what do you think is wrong with this king's disposal? Han Jian asked.
Su Tingxia said: "Everything in the army is just and bright. His Royal Highness did not ask for reason, and replaced the commander of the Chinese army, how could such a child's play order the three armies? ”
Han Jian didn't expect Su Tingxia to teach him a lesson in person, and he could ignore his face like this.
Han Jian nodded slightly, and said, "What the right envoy Su said is also right, this king likes to do some conspiracy and trickery, and it seems that he does not have the ability to command the three armies. That's why there are so many people present to help the king command the three armies. But if there is something in the army, and this king ignores it, is this king also derelict in his duty? ”
It's not easy for Su Tingxia to say this time, he was also a "matter of facts" before, but if he said some things too harshly, he would be ruthless. (To be continued......)
