Ma Kuo confessed his mistake, and Zhao Bangjie said: "In the troubled times, it is not a sword, but a fish and meat." When I was in Xishan, every time I attacked a state and county under the control of the Jin soldiers, I connived at the plundering of the Red Turbans, otherwise I would not be able to unite the army. Could it be that the Lord is completely ignorant of it? ”

I know, Hu Yangeng thought to himself, don't say that you, even Li Zicheng, have to condone the kidnapping under his command.

"So you fight less and less, and finally I want to save you." Hu Yangeng said sharply: "If the gold thief comes, he will be plundered, and the soldiers and horses of the imperial court will be plundered, so why should the people of Sanhe wait for the imperial army and horses?" Isn't it good to be a submissive citizen under the rule of a gold thief? ”

Zhao Bangjie defended: "It's not that it is often taken prisoner, but it is just a reward for soldiers."

"When you reward the soldiers, do you let them take it for themselves? How many battles have you fought, and then you think that you are invincible in the world and can take what you want? His eyes became colder and colder, and when he left, he had already asked Ma Kuo to straighten out military discipline, but he was still like this.

glanced at Ma Kuo fiercely, and shouted: "Ma Kuo's department, gather outside an arrow, and if you don't have a moment, cut it!" Fold Yuelan, gather the pro-soldiers and be on alert! Yang Jizhong, instead of Ma Fang, entered the village to receive. ”

The red scarves were noisily driven under the city wall, and Gao Zhong and his cavalry, who stood solemnly on the side, and Hu Yangeng, who stood on top with a blue face, immediately replaced by horror in his heart.

Hu Yangeng, who was in front of everyone, looked at these people who were still high-spirited, but now they were disgruntled. sighed in my heart: It's time, this moment has actually come. I'm going to build a new army: high morale, abundant supplies, and strict discipline.

I always thought it would start all this in Cangzhou, but I didn't expect it to be in Daizhou. Historically, because the discipline of the soldiers was worse than that of the enemy, it was common to push the soldiers who were looking forward to the restoration of the king's hometown day and night to the hostile camp.

He didn't want to repeat these famous mistakes in history, and he didn't want to have just a group of people who would not dare to speak up if they won and reported their grievances when they lost.

"Why are our troops here?" Clearing his throat, he asked the former outcasts below who were a mixture of dragons and snakes.

"Tell me, why did our army come? Why do you get up?" he raised his voice and shouted at the men on the other side! looked at Ma Kuo, who was still bowing his head to the side, and shouted: "Ma Kuo, you answer me, why did our army rise?" ”

Ma Kuo bowed, stood up, and said: "The name of our army is the Red Turban, because we are all homeless people, and we don't want to be captured and killed by the Jin soldiers, so we have become an army Red Turban. ”

"Good!" Hu Yangeng glanced at Ma Kuo, whose face was flushed, and asked, "So, if I don't want to be captured and killed by the Jin soldiers, can I be captured and killed by other Song people?" ”

"How can the Song people rob each other!"

"That's right, how can the Song people plunder each other, how can our army take other Song people to death?" Looking at the people below who were dissatisfied but didn't dare to speak, he raised his tone and shouted, "If that's the case, what's the difference between us and Jin Bing?" ”

"What's the difference between us and the likes of Lujia?" He looked like a ghost, his face was blood-red, and he glanced at the heroes behind him, the Lu brothers turned their faces away in shame, and the others looked relieved. The proverbial "general benevolence and righteousness" all bowed to the ground. "Ma Kuo, let me ask you, you are determined to restore Yanyun, but for the sake of the Yan people and the Song people, they plundered each other?" Ma Kuo bowed his head in embarrassment and was silent, Yan Yun was a pain in his heart, but he couldn't defend it at this time.

Hu Yangeng's heart felt uncomfortable for a while.

"I put up a red scarf, not for me to live alone, but for the Song people!" Ma Kuo's face couldn't see a trace of shame, raised his head, and looked straight at Hu Yangeng. "Today's incident is Ma Kuo's fault, Ma Kuo can't rectify military discipline, please punish the general."

Hu Yangeng looked at the righteousness on his face, and a feeling of guilt surged in his heart, and today he wanted to take this opportunity to completely integrate the various departments in Hedong.

Passing over Ma Kuo, who was asking for punishment, Hu Yangeng looked at Zhao Bangjie, who was already convinced, and asked gently: "Zhao Wujie, you said, who is to blame for the looting in this attack on the village?" ”

"Back to the general, the crime lies in the last general, the military law is not strict, please behead the last general, and correct the military law."

"Of course you are at fault, but as your general, I can't declare military discipline, and I am first to blame."

After Hu Yangeng finished speaking, he took off the helmet, and then untied the bun, "You are my subordinates, you don't listen to orders, you plunder without authorization, you should be beheaded, but I failed to declare military discipline first, so this time I will be punished on your behalf, the body is skinned, and the parents who are subjected, this time I will take the hair as the head and take responsibility for you." ”

After speaking, he swung down with a knife and cut off his hair: "If there is a next time, I will have to cut off your head instead." ”

The red scarves were awe-inspiring, Zhao Bangjie and Ma Kuo both drew their knives, cut off their hair buns, and swore to the sky: "If your subordinates violate military discipline again, you should behead your subordinates first, and then apologize for your crimes." ”

Hu Yangeng pulled a person with one hand: "The fault of the robbery of the red scarf, the death penalty has been exempted, but the punishment is inevitable, you and other departments will re-study military law and go to the battlefield again." ”

"Re-study military law, and then go to the battlefield" The tidal voice shouted out from the red scarf below, those who were fighting and fighting for some property just now, some were moved by the behavior of the three generals and repented seriously, some were glad that they had escaped punishment this time, and some followed the crowd and shouted.

"Very well, I will appoint a group of instructors to serve as your commanders, chiefs, and even chiefs. Teach you well, you can rest assured, these instructors are by no means nerds, their martial arts and tactics can definitely lead you to victory, and you can also get more rewards. ”

Sweeping over the somewhat gloomy crowd below, Hu Yangeng said again: "In the future, all property will be rewarded uniformly, and those who steal property without merit will be killed!" Those who have contributed to the red scarf will be rewarded! ”

Hu Yangeng, who had settled the army, sat in the big tent of the Lu family, looking at the next leader, and the Lu family who was nervous in his heart actually had the pleasure of controlling the life and death of others. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, he stood up, walked to the two Lu brothers who were kneeling below, and smiled slightly.

"I have a niece, who is very beautiful, and I am willing to dedicate myself to the general as a maidservant, and I hope the general will accept it with a smile." Lu Ming smiled humbly on the side, hoping that the Huyandu commander, who had just established his authority in front of the Chinese army, would not be fierce.

"The Lu family should serve the general to pay for the crime of Lu Jia." I heard that this person is good at fishing, but he can use it.

Hu Yan Geng sighed, beauty plan? He was happy in his heart and said: "In my opinion, this Lujia village is very simple, and there is no need to stay anymore. ”

As soon as the words fell, Lu Bing roared angrily, wanting to jump up from the ground and fight with Hu Yangeng, but the soldiers on both sides rushed up and pressed him hard, and he kept roaring and cursing. Hu Yangeng glanced at Lu Ming, then at Lu Bing, who was roaring, and muttered for a while before speaking.

"Brother Lujia will go back to Daizhou with me, and the men in the other three clans will all be scattered and filled with red scarves. The woman became a slave. The old and weak are used as protons to live in Fanzhi. Confiscation of property to atone for the sins of Lujia. After a while, he pondered, "If he has military exploits, he can be removed from his status as a sinner." The rest of the people in the dock fort, the men entered the red scarf, and joined the old camp with the old and weak red scarves. ”

Now there are thousands of old and weak women and children, plus those deserted villages and small villages who are willing to go with the red scarves, the number of people should far exceed the number of people in the Lu family, even if someone contacts each other to cause trouble in Xinwu Fort, it should be no problem.

He planned to build several new dock forts in the area he had explored a few days ago, and support each other with the Wutai Mountain and Hutuo River as a link. In this way, the population is in great demand. In addition to the small villages that were willing to attach to him this time, some people were also relocated from various counties in Xinzhou.

"Shameless thieves, they actually kidnapped people as soldiers and robbed people of their money" Lu Bing cried out desperately on the ground, and the soldier next to him found a rag and was about to stuff it into his mouth. Hu Yangeng shook his hand and told the soldiers to stop. Just looked at Lu Ming in the Lu family.

Lu Bing continued to shout: "Brother didn't listen to me, and finally caused such a disaster? In your township, my Lu family has been dealing with Jin Bing all these years to protect the land of Daizhou, did you also let the Lu family disappear from Daizhou? ”

As soon as he instigated like this, the big and small Haoqiang who followed him were also unnatural on their faces, and some wanted to get up and intercede for the Lu family.

Ma Kuo saw that everyone was a little unstable, and hurriedly said: "My general has made a covenant with everyone, and he will not change it. The road family protects the state for everyone? Don't you know what he was like back then? Now he is secretly colluding with Jin Bing to ambush my general, and he can't let it go easily. Today's matter has been seen on your face, and it will be taken lightly. I hope that everyone in the township, don't hurt everyone's harmony for this person. ”

These words also said that those who wanted to intercede had to sit in their place.

"Shameless thief, hum, your brother Lu Jia is just a gold thief who is not even as good as a thief." Hu Yangeng sneered for a while, and glanced at Lu Bing contemptuously, "Lu Ming, do you think it's appropriate to deal with it like this?" ”

"I don't know if the general is practicing the Song law, or is he doing it himself?"

"I am an official of the imperial court, and I should follow the Song law." Huyan Geng laughed, "Song Fa Zhu three clans, whether Lu Jun is willing to practice Song Fa and use the three clans of the Lu clan to wait for us to wait for the red scarf to establish authority, although there are few people in Hedong now, I don't want to slaughter Song Min, but if Wu Jun intends to let me wait for Liwei, I will be grateful." ”

"Third brother, don't say anything more." Lu Ming listened to this naked blackmail, looked at Lu Bing, who didn't even struggle after hearing the three clans, sighed heavily, and kowtowed: "The whole family of the Lu family in the Ming Dynasty, General Xie is not killed." We should be on the battlefield to wash away my brother's sins. ”

"The Lu brothers are also outstanding people, and they know that the Jin soldiers are cruel and have no faith. Brother Ling is ambitious, but he doesn't want to cook if Song Min dies. Everyone is Song Min, and it is natural to be in the same boat. Don't do what he thinks again. If you collude with Jin Bing again, don't blame me for the disadvantage. ”
