Chapter 383: Soldiers Meet

Seeing Su Keyong coming out on a stretcher, Captain He Mian He smiled coldly, did not dismount, and said in a deep voice: "On the orders of the commander, I have come to take over the defense work of the Xichun County Ya. ”

Su Keyong said coldly: "This official is here, why do you need to wait to take over?" What's more, this county government already has a Royal Forest Army, and the defense work is doing an excellent job, and there are repeat offenders in the county government, so you don't need to interfere. ”

He Mian said sharply: "Master Su, the last general can't control anything else, just follow the military order!" ”

"Then you let Zhuge Min come and speak." Su Keyong did not back down, "I want to see what he says." You are just a school captain, and you dare to shout in front of this official, but you don't know how Zhuge Min led the troops! ”

He Mian didn't seem to put Su Keyong in his eyes, and said indifferently: "Master Su, according to the usual practice, you are a Beijing official and a servant of the ministry, and the last general is indeed going to dismount and pay homage, but ...... Master Su, you came to my Yichun County, and I didn't see you doing things for the people, but you excluded dissidents everywhere, which was an ulterior intention. Now passers-by know that you, Lord Su, have wantonly slandered Yichun officials, fabricated facts, confused the public, and even deceived the supervision envoy Ling, and detained a large number of Yichun officials, causing panic among the people of Yichun County, no one in the official position, and disaster relief was unfavorable...... What is the purpose of your reckless behavior? The commander led us to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor and maintain the safety of Yichun County...... The commander and I really can't stand it, if we let Lord Su go on like this, the defenders of our city really can't explain ...... to the saint! ”

He said eloquently, the yin and yang frustrated, and his voice was high and low, and he actually seemed very sad and angry.

Su Keyong sneered, although he has an upright temperament and doesn't like to beat around the bush, but He Mian's set of rhetoric, he can see at a glance that it must have been rehearsed in advance, otherwise he would not have spoken so fluently and crisply.

It's just that righteous and awe-inspiring posture, but it is difficult for He Mian to perform.

Xiao Mu stood aside, but he felt more and more bad in his heart.

The city defenders suddenly appeared, making the battle that had gradually become clear seem to have reached a very fierce peak, and he could feel that this time the city defenders suddenly surrounded the Xichun County Ya, and the goal was quite clear, and today's things would definitely not be good.

He even thought that the He family had not used the weapon of the city defenders before, and the biggest scruple was naturally Han Mo's Imperial Forest Army, with Han Mo's Imperial Forest Army, like a fierce tiger with sharp teeth, extremely fierce, but without Han Mo, this tiger is equivalent to missing teeth, and it is imprisoned in an iron cage, without much power, and without the freedom to gallop vertically.

Han Mo is now the supreme commander of the Imperial Forest Army in Yichun County, and the Royal Forest Army follows his orders, but once this supreme commander is no longer heard, it is impossible for the Royal Forest Army to act rashly.

After all, Han Mo had given strict orders, and the main duty of the Imperial Forest Army at present was to guard the two granaries, without his military orders, even if something big happened, the Imperial Forest Army would not be easily mobilized.

If you really want to mobilize the Imperial Forest Army, the defense of the granary will be weakened, and once someone with ill intentions takes the opportunity to attack the granary, once it is lost, no one can afford the consequences.

If the rice warehouse is lost, the people's will will be unstable, and it will cause turmoil, and the responsibility will definitely be to overthrow the Royal Forest Army.

The He clan has not moved the city defenders, which is taboo for Han Mo and the Imperial Forest Army, but since the city defenders have made a move today, does it mean that the He people have no sense of fear for Han Mo and the Royal Forest Army, or rather, the He people know in their hearts that Han Mo and the Royal Forest Army will not interfere in the actions of the city defenders this time?

Why do the He people have such a certainty?

More importantly, where is Han Mo now? Where is the Supreme Commander of the Imperial Guards now?

……

"If you want to ask for guilt, it's not the turn of an unruly lieutenant like you!" Su Keyong said indifferently: "Call Zhuge Min to come to see the official, and the official wants to talk to him!" ”

He Mian shook his head, "Master Su, the commander said that when he was an official in Beijing, he also had some friendship with you, and he thought you were a good official, but after this incident, he saw that you were a scheming and cunning person...... The commander said that in this situation, it is better not to meet, so as not to be embarrassed to meet, and everyone should save a little face! ”

"Did he really say that?" Su Keyong sneered: "He Mian, shouldn't you be acting without authorization under the banner of Zhuge Min, pretending to be public and private, right?" You must know that it is a capital crime to mobilize the city defenders without a military talisman! ”

When He Mian heard this, his eyelids twitched a few times.

As a general of the local army, of course, he also understands the key to this.

The army of Yan is divided into three major military systems.

The first army division system is naturally the border army, that is, the border soldiers who guard the frontier garrison territory, which is naturally the northwest battalion with the military god Xiao Huaiyu as the general, also known as the Northwest Army.

The second military system is the Beijing army.

The main body of the Beijing army, there is no doubt that it is the five major imperial forest armies in Kyoto, the five battalion imperial forest armies, which are the most elite troops in the Yan Kingdom, not the largest in number, but the strongest in combat effectiveness.

Finally, there is the local army.

In addition to the so-called family army, the other main body of the local army is the city defenders of each county.

The city defenders are different from the family army, the command of the family army is actually in the hands of the family, and the command of the city defenders, in the final analysis, still belongs to the imperial court and the cabinet.

The cabinet is the most complicated place, which is full of the most cutting-edge power struggles in the Yan Kingdom, so the transfer of the city defenders, generally speaking, is also extremely cautious, and it is easy and difficult to move without the consent of the majority of the cabinet members.

According to the military position of the imperial court, if there is a sudden turmoil in the local area, the commander can mobilize up to 2,000 soldiers to quell the rebellion, and the transfer of more than 2,000 people needs to be agreed by the cabinet and the military department can issue a downward order.

The local city guard talisman, commonly known as the "wolf talisman", is a wolf-shaped talisman carved from black jade, the wolf head is in the hands of the commander, and the wolf body is in the hands of the county guard.

This is also a very strict military system in which the imperial court controls the local army.

The county guard and the commander each controlled half of the army and restrained each other, and only by combining the strength of the two could they mobilize an army of less than 2,000 people, so it was difficult for ordinary local officials to have the opportunity to control the army.

Now this He Mian came with two or three hundred soldiers, and I don't know if there are still soldiers in ambush in other places, but there is no doubt that the soldiers of the local city defenders are obviously one, otherwise they would not be able to transfer these hundreds of soldiers.

In other words, Situ Jing, the county guard of Yichun County, and the commander of Xinyicheng made Zhuge Min's two pieces of military talismans into one, and this action, judging from the current situation, was approved by those two people.

He Mian's face changed slightly, but he soon sneered: "Master Su, do you want to see the talisman?" He took out something from his bosom, held it high, and said in a deep voice: "You can see clearly, the talisman is here, and the last general is acting on orders!" ”

The thing, dark in color, was black and shiny in the light of the soldiers holding torches behind them, and it actually glowed with a swarthy light, like a wild wolf that was long in the sky.

It was the Guardian of the City Talisman.

Although Su Keyong tried his best to remain calm, he still changed color slightly.

Situ Jing wanted to bring him down, he knew it, but he knew that Zhuge Min had always been reluctant to get involved in this kind of dispute, and it was absolutely impossible to embarrass the Su family unless it was absolutely necessary.

When I arrived in Xichun County on the same day, I learned that Zhuge Min was still guarding Xinyi City, and people who didn't know the truth thought that Zhuge Min cared about the people and stuck to the front, but very few people knew that Zhuge Min stayed in Xinyi City, which was to avoid disasters and avoid this vicious dispute between families.

Su Keyong and Zhuge Min do have some friendship, and they also know that guy's temperament is a typical example of grinding three times for nothing and not seeing people when there is something, which makes it a life criterion for being alone.

This time, he actually sent out a talisman, which really surprised Su Keyong.

But after his momentary surprise, he remained calm, looked at He Mian coldly, and asked, "Acting as ordered?" What is it that you do? ”

"The last general has already said that the defenders of our city will take over the county government, and the prisoners of the prison will be handed over to the defenders of our city to take over, as for Lord Su and the lords of the officials...... For the time being, I will live in the prefectural office and wait for the commander to give the order of the commander on how to deal with it...... Before the commander's military order arrives, please do not leave the county yamen for half a step, otherwise...... The sword has no eyes, and the last general will not dare to guarantee the safety of your lords! He Mian said coldly: "Please also ask Master Su to do what the last general wants, so as not to make it difficult for the last general!" ”

He kept calling himself "the last general", but his tone did not have the slightest meaning of "last general", but like a boss ordering his subordinates to act.

Su Keyong said indifferently: "What if this official doesn't hand over the county government to you?" ”

He Mian also looked very calm: "The commander instructed the last general to be as polite as possible to Lord Su, but ...... If Lord Su really wants to embarrass the last general, the duty of the last general can only be offended...... The last general still hopes that Lord Su will think about it again, he is really going to make a move, and it will not be a good thing to hurt you adults in the capital! ”

Su Keyong shook his head, coughed for a while, sat on the stretcher, and stared at He Mian, "This official won't say anything about the nonsense that is useless to you...... He Mian, if you want to go to the county government and take away that important criminal, it's very simple...... Step over the officer's head! ”

He Mian's expression was gloomy, he slowly put away the talisman, raised his hand, and raised the saber in his hand.

I heard the sound of Jin Ge, and the soldiers of the city defenders around him all raised their spears diagonally, and the spearheads were aimed at the gate of the county ya, and at Su Keyong and Xiao Mu and others in front of the door.

"Do what is commanded and do not be afraid...... Meet on the battleground! He Mian said coldly.

p beg for a red ticket, hehe, thank you!
