Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
It's easy to meet the same thing under the same shape.
Zhang Kuang is full of reading the scriptures and history, but in the end it is just talking on paper
The general needs to be neutral in the Huguang army, and he jumps up and down, like a pillow sent when others want to sleep.
There are no generals in the Ming Dynasty who dare to openly slaughter the hands of scribes who have the reputation of Jinshi. Even if the military generals abuse their power, they are often open to civil officials, especially the famous squires. He Tengjiao is the governor of Huguang, a second-rank official, and according to the rules, Zhai Zhe has no right to kill him directly.
Cutting off the governor of Erpin without authorization will cause a sensation in the government and the opposition, which is more excessive than Zheng Zhilong's private occupation of Guangdong, and He Tengjiao has many friends who are also friends of the Donglin Party, Zhai Zhe will not fight with Zheng Zhilong for such a thing.
Zhang Kuang's identity is simply tailor-made for the general, he himself doesn't know, he claims to be a Jinshi, and he has a small reputation, He Tengjiao and Du Yinxi can't watch him die in the loyalty camp.
He miscalculated, some mistakes, and once they were made, there was no chance of remedy.
"Drag it out, behead" Zhai Zhe's tone was very calm, and it was no different from ordering a soldier who violated military discipline to be killed.
The two soldiers who slapped their mouths just now dragged Zhang Kuang dozens of steps away like a dead dog, but they didn't do it themselves, but dragged it directly in front of Yuan Zongdi.
Yuan Zongdi understood, waved his hand and asked his soldiers to grab the clothes on Zhang Kuang's neck, and more than a dozen people escorted him out.
"Lord He, help, Lord Block, help" couldn't wait for the two officials to stand up, Zhang Kuang roared like a pig. Yuan Zongdi's broad palm covered his mouth and dragged him away quickly. Zhang Kuang's eyes widened, his eyes were full of horror, and he really felt the threat of death.
Actually, he didn't have much courage.
"Wait" Plug Yinxi still stood up.
"General Zhai" He Tengjiao and Du Yinxi almost spoke in unison.
"How dare you kill the long history of our army" He Tengjiao's expression made people think that he had seen an extremely strange thing.
Gu Yinxi looked like a peacemaker and persuaded: "The general is angry"
Regardless of their relationship, they are civilians, and at this moment they are on the same front.
The eyes of a group of people fell on Zhai Zhe.
Zhai Zhe slightly accentuated his tone, and said in a deep voice: "The state has national laws, the army has military regulations, Zhang Kuang disobeys orders, and he should be beheaded without forgiveness."
Yuan Zongdi understood, pulled Zhang Kuang and walked out.
The gate was about three or four hundred steps away from the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Kuang's mouth was blocked, and his two legs were kicked like a dying frog. Plug Yinxi was really anxious, and greeted the commanders in the loyal camp: "Please intercede with the generals, and ask the generals to open the net."
Li Guo, Gao Yigong and others looked at each other, Zhang Kuang stayed in the loyalty camp for more than a month, and they knew exactly what kind of person they were. They don't want to intercede, but they can't help but give Yinxi's face.
"General" Du Yinxi walked five steps in front of Zhai Zhe, and the green tendons on his forehead were agitated.
Zhai Zhe flicked his sleeves and said, "There are no rules, there is no circle, you don't ask for mercy"
He Tengjiao's remorse and hatred coexisted. The loyal battalion was originally Huguang's soldiers and horses, how did it fall into the hands of Zhai Zhe, he hated even blocking Yinxi in his heart. When he saw Zhai Zhe's appearance, he knew that he was in the mouth of the tiger, and pleading for mercy would only increase his humiliation, so he simply stood there without saying a word.
The generals of the loyal battalion asked for mercy, but after hearing Zhai Zhe's words, they immediately pushed the boat down the river and stopped moving one by one.
"General" Du Yinxi saw that there was no room for recovery and sighed.
After a while, Yuan Zongdi returned with a bloody human head, knelt on one knee thirty steps in front of Zhai Zhe, and returned to his life: "Zhang Kuang has been cut here."
He Tengjiao rushed over with an arrow step, and saw the level of his friend for many years in front of him, his two eyes were still open, and he cried, "Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, you died so miserably"
He got up and pointed at Zhai Zhe and scolded: "Zhai Zhe, you dare to kill Zhang Kuang for personal gain today, and from now on, the Huguang Governor's Mansion will be inseparable from you."
"Is this still the world of the Ming Dynasty?" Zhai Zhe snorted coldly and asked, "Are you still the governor of Huguang in the Ming Dynasty?" ”
In just two words, everyone smelled an unusual smell, and the matter was not over yet.
Zhai Zhe arched his hand to the sky and said sharply: "I am ordered by the Holy Lord to take charge of the war between Jiangnan and Huguang against the Qing captives. Not to mention that you lost Yuezhou Mansion last year, which led to the defeat of Zhenying under Jingzhou City. In the past two months, you, Governor He, have first returned from a great defeat in Yuezhou Mansion, and then refused to save the loyal battalion under the city of Jingzhou, and tonight he abandoned the vast camp of Huguang without authorization and escaped from the battle. ”
He sneered, "You still dare to make a big statement today, in the name of the Huguang Governor's Mansion against the imperial court, don't you know your sins?" ”
His speech was very slow, and at the end of his speech, it was like being interrogated and convicted. Du Yinxi's face changed greatly, and He Tengjiao's upright body was shaky, and he had a premonition that the shape was not good.
Zhai Zhe finally issued an order that made He Tengjiao's soul scatter: "Come on, take He Tengjiao down, wait for the Huguang war to end, escort him to Nanjing, and be convicted by the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Justice." ”
Fang Jin stepped forward in person, waved his hand and said, "Lord He, let's clear"
"Lord Block, you will be in charge of Huguang's affairs first"
Zhai Zhe said lightly, which made Du Yinxi stunned. He really wanted to monopolize the vast power of the lake, but he was never willing to do so. Zhai Zhe has no right to appoint and dismiss the governor of Huguang, and if he agrees to Zhai Zhe now, it is equivalent to becoming Zhai Zhe's party.
He Tengjiao raised his right hand, pointed straight ahead, and shouted, "Zhai Zhe, what authority do you have to appoint and dismiss me?" Later, his voice became quieter and quieter, and he lacked confidence.
Liu Suifeng stood up and replied: "Everything on the battlefield of Huguang is under the control of the general."
This is a signal.
Yuan Zongdi, Liu Tichun and Liu Titong and other five commanders stood up and came out, "I am willing to follow the orders of the general and clear the captives"
Tonight's arrangement was clever, and five of the eight commanders on the scene expressed their support for the general. Just these people in front of them occupied thirty percent of the strength of the loyal battalion, Li Guo and Gao Yigong glanced at each other, their faces were shocked, and they stood in place without moving. More than anything else, keeping the Camp of Loyalty intact is more important to them. It makes no difference whether to follow the general, or to follow the governor of Huguang.
When Du Yinxi saw this sudden scene, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and his heart was cold. He was in the loyalty camp for a year, not as good as Zhai Zhe coming here for a day. In fact, since the loyal battalion received Zhai Zhe's silver and food, the general has already carved his mark in this army. Liu followed the army for a year, for the scene in front of him.
Knowing in his heart that he couldn't do anything, Du Yinxi still had to say his words: "General, this matter still needs to be decided by the court meeting, Lord He led the army to run around Huguang, although he failed to win the battle, there is still a lot of credit for the hardship." ”
Zhai Zhe replied with a pleasant face: "This is the battlefield, not child's play." I am a brother to the Jiangnan Army, and the loyal battalion is also my brother, and every strong man who resists the Qing captives in the north and south of the Yangtze River is my brother. Isn't it a sin that the officials made mistakes in decision-making and caused the soldiers to bleed for thousands of miles? ”
Although this remark was said in order to attract people's hearts, it also touched the hearts of several commanders of the loyal battalion. Plug Yinxi respects them very much, and has never said such heart-warming words.
After a long delay here, Zhai Zhe waved his hand at Fang Jin and ordered, "Escort He Tengjiao down, the court has its own public opinion on the rest of the commanders, follow me to defend against the enemy"
The two pro-soldiers set up He Tengjiao and walked towards the back, and He Tengjiao, who was arrogant a moment ago, became cowardly, and didn't even shout.
It was quiet in front of the big tent of the Chinese army, the sky was already dark, and a few small raindrops fell in the air. The cold rain fell on Zhai Zhe's face, and his heart was hot with passion. Without He Tengjiao, the battlefield in Huguang would progress more smoothly, and the Qing court had little time left for him.
The general led the commanders to the front camp, leaving Gu Yinxi alone and standing alone.
He suddenly felt empty in his heart, after He Tengjiao was imprisoned, even if he would not lose his life, it would be impossible to return to the position of governor of Huguang. He monopolized the power of Huguang, but he was not excited at all, because from this moment on, that person hung a sharp sword above his head.
Whether he admits it or not, the era of the Ming Dynasty has come.
The torches in the distance were gradually extinguished.
Confirming that the Loyal Battalion would not come to the rescue of the Huguang army, Luckedhun ordered a fierce attack.
The large camp of tens of thousands of people in Huguang collapsed in half an hour, some fled to the dense forest, some fled to the fertile field, and more fled to the direction of the loyal camp.
Zhai Zhe rode his horse in the front camp and patrolled, and Bao Guang led 3,000 personal guards to stick to the second column.
In front of him, the rout was like a tide, and then there were Qing cavalry chasing in the distance, Zhai Zhe's figure on horseback was as steady as Mount Tai, leading Li Guo and Li Laiheng and others to wait for them.
Lekdehun commanded the Mongol cavalry to drive the Huguang rout in the direction of the loyal battalion as if they were hunting in the steppe, hoping to take advantage of the great victory to defeat the loyal battalion.
The few cavalrymen in the loyal battalion came out of the camp to guide the route, beckoning the panicked Ming army to retreat from both flanks and not to storm the oncoming battle line.
Of course, a battle-hardened veteran like Hao Shaoqi knew that he could not let the rout break up the reinforcements' formation, so he led his troops and horses to take a bow-backed arc route from the north into the loyal camp defense area. But there are more recruits in the Huguang army who don't know anything, and they hate that their father and mother have two legs less, and they only know how to run in the direction of the loyal camp.
The whips of the cavalry drove away, shouting: "Go from both sides, this road is not passable"
The crowded rout was like a puddle of silt, and soon even the cavalry fell into it.
The rain stops falling, and I don't know how long it will take for the heavy rain to come.
Fang Jin rode his horse to the front of Li Laiheng of the former army and held up the token: "The general has an order, immediately go out of the camp to meet the cavalry and return to the camp to disperse the rout."
This is an old tactic, but if Li Guo commanded it, he would never dare to give such an order. After taking refuge in the Ming Dynasty, the warriors under the command of King Chuang became shrunk.
"How about the rout?" Li Laiheng asked more questions.
"Shoot or Kill"
Fang Jin urged the horse to turn.
Li Laiheng yelled: "Go to war"
