Chapter 228: Private Fight

Rong Che was staring at the soldiers in the camp, and suddenly saw Ding Zhen in the distance with soldiers and horses from another camp, he frowned slightly, thinking of what Xiao Shaobei had said to him just now, thinking that Xiao Shaobei asked him to lead the troops to the shallow water area of the Luan River.

Watching Ding Zhen's team raise a puff of dust and gallop away, Rong Che took his gaze back.

Many people have received the news that Beigong Han has collected a sum of money from Jiangnan, and now Beiyan really intends to start a war, it is a tense moment, if there is infighting, it will not be so good to end it.

Internal and external troubles, Xiao Shaobei was attacked from both sides, no wonder he was worried every day.

Ding Zhen walked with people for about half an hour, and a small soldier hurriedly ran over, clasping his fists and reporting: "Your Highness, the people of the Dingbei Army and the people of the Ding Family Army have fought. ”

Rong Che heard this, and frowned: "Bring this king over." ”

The little soldier immediately took Rong Che in the direction not far away, and not far from the gang head camp, he happened to see several people fighting together, while the others were divided into two factions and quarreled.

"What are you doing!"

Seeing this scene, Rong Che yelled at them, his face dark.

As soon as he yelled like this, the people who were still arguing finally stopped, and two people were holding on to each other and pinching each other.

Rong Che's eyes flashed slightly: "Flying Eagle, separate them." ”

The flying eagle standing beside Rong Che is now his personal soldier, and after listening to Rong Che's words, he immediately stepped forward, raised his foot and kicked it alone, and both of them fell directly to the ground, unable to move for a while.

Rong Che snorted coldly, glanced at the people around him, and asked, "What's going on?

"Your Highness, it's their Ding family army who is bullying people too much!" One of the people who was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face took a mouthful of blood and said, "Not only robbed us of food, but also made disrespectful remarks and insulted our Hou Ye!"

Rong Che's gaze turned to the other person.

The man got up, and was kicked in the waist by the eagle, and the pain felt like his bones were about to break.

Seeing Rong Che's gaze staring at him, he lowered his eyes and said, "Your Highness Mingjian, this meal is first-come, first-served, how did it become theirs?" And I just said that the Marquis of Dingbei is still too young, but I don't mean to insult him. ”

"Meals are on a first-come, first-served basis, one per person, why did you move half of others? Also, you just said that our Hou Ye Mao was the commander before he even grew up, and you also scolded us for the Dingbei Army, and Lao Tzu didn't get used to it!

"You are talking nonsense, it is clear that you Dingbei Army is deliberately finding fault!"

"Ding Jiajun's people dare not do it, they are all bad seeds!"

"You Dingbei Army is a bad seed, and you have the ability to ......"

"Enough!" Rong Che heard this, and already understood the general situation.

If Xiao Shaobei dealt with this matter, it would definitely cause Ding Jiajun's dissatisfaction, Rong Che's eyes flashed slightly, he looked at Ding Jiajun who was stirring up trouble, and said coldly: "Stir things first, drag him down to play forty boards, and the other one will play twenty boards." ”

"Your Highness......"

"If someone makes such a mistake again next time, the punishment will be doubled. Rong Che said coldly, the indifference in his eyes made the soldier who just wanted to cry and beg for mercy swallow the words.

Although the Dingbei Army who beat people was also beaten with 20 boards, but when he saw that the people of the Ding Jiajun were beaten with 40 boards, he was somewhat relieved in his heart, and glared at the person viciously.

The people who were scolding each other around them also quieted down.

Rong Che glanced at those people and said, "Those who watched the excitement here just now, helping the people who scolded and stirred up trouble, and practiced for two more hours, they were not allowed to eat tonight." ”

"Isn't itβ€”" The men stared at Rong Che with wide eyes, speechless for a moment.

I originally thought that this little prince usually looked quite gentle, but I didn't expect to get angry and not ambiguous at all.

Rong Che's gaze swept over these people, snorted coldly, and said, "Don't let this king catch such a thing again in the future, otherwise, neither Dingbei Hou nor General Ding will be able to save you." ”

He left these words, turned and walked back into his camp.

Left behind two pairs of people and horses looking at each other.

"Phew, count us unlucky today! We should be bitten by a pack of wild dogs!" Dingbeihou's man glared at the person opposite and turned to practice.

Rong Che left a few people staring at them, and in the place where they were still noisy, they only heard the miserable wails of the people who were beaten by the battle.

In fact, in Yingzhou City, Ding Zhen only brought 3,000 men and horses, which was much less than the 10,000 horses given to Rong Che by the emperor, not to mention the more than 100,000 horses in Dingbei Hou.

It's just that Ding Jiajun can be so arrogant, but he just wants to grasp Xiao Shaobei's mistakes.

Now that the emperor is far away, they can't see how they fight Chang'an, the process is fabricated by others, and in comparison, the emperor trusts Ding Zhen more.

When the sun was about to set, Ding Zhen came back with his men.

He just went to the Luan River to investigate, and did not ambush the Yan soldiers hidden in the mountains and forests on the other side of the river, even if Xiao Shaobei asked, he could use the reason of improper timing to prevaricate the past, and he couldn't force himself to deal with Xiao Shaobei.

It's just that as soon as he returned to the camp, someone reported what had just happened to Ding Zhen.

"King Xuan is really too partial, and today's subordinates saw him go to Dingbei Hou for a long time, and I don't know what he was talking about. The man reported.

Ding Zhen looked at the person in front of him who came to report it, his eyes were dark.

"Who told you to go to trouble the Dingbei Army?" Ding Zhen said in a deep voice, his tone a little displeased.

The soldier was slightly stunned, speechless for a moment.

Ding Zhen said: "Next time, without my permission, you are not allowed to go to trouble the Dingbei Army without authorization, otherwise you won't even know how you were killed." ”

"Yes. The soldier replied curtly.

Ding Zhen asked, "What about King Xuan?"

The soldier replied, "At this hour, the prince should have returned to the city." ”

Ding Zhen snorted, then waved his hand and let the soldier retreat.

He walked towards his tent, thought for a while, and said to his entourage: "Prepare two jars of good wine, and go to make amends to the prince tonight." ”

Now that it is summer, the border of Yingzhou in the north, the weather is too hot during the day, but as soon as it enters the evening, the coolness gradually rises, as if it is like a cold wind in late autumn.

Rong Che was looking at the book of soldiers in the study, and Qiu Li walked in.

"Lord Wang, General Ding asks to see you. ”

Rong Che raised his eyes and responded: "Got it, please ask him to wait in the front hall." ”

After Qiu Li's retreat, Rong Che put down the book in his hand and immediately walked in the direction of the front hall.

When Ding Zhen came to the front hall, he saw Rong Che sitting on the main seat, he stepped forward and bowed and said, "Your Royal Highness King Xuan." ”

Rong Che's eyes moved slightly, and he said with a smile: "General Ding is polite, you are the second-grade Zhenguo general in the court, and this king is just a third-grade general, if you take it seriously, General Ding is the peak." ”

Ding Zhen had an unnatural smile on his face: "The prince said he was laughing." ”

Rong Che is a prince, and his status is naturally not comparable to ordinary people, even if he has a low official position, who dares not to salute the prince?

What's more, in the eyes of many people, this three-grade young general in Rong Che's mouth, is a position that may not be able to grab the head, just because he is a prince who has come to experience, and the emperor casually writes a letter, which is an honor that others can't get if they have to work hard for most of their lives.

If it weren't for his skill in following the dragon and destroying the Lou family, it would not have been possible to easily get the position of this second-grade general.

Ding Zhen is now over fifty years old, with half-white hair, but as a martial artist, he has a strong figure and an oppressive aura of a martial artist.

"I don't know why General Ding came late at night?" asked Rong Che.

Ding Zhen said: "After returning to the camp today, I heard that my subordinates had some conflicts with the Dingbei Army, and the trouble was a little unpleasant, and His Royal Highness came forward to solve it, so I came to the prince to ask for guilt." ”

Rong Che said: "General Ding didn't mention it, this king really didn't take this matter to heart." It was only because they were too noisy and fought in private, which had violated military regulations, that the king spoke out to stop it. Speaking of which, this king disposed of General Ding's people without authorization, and asked General Ding not to be surprised. ”

"Your Highness, where is this, it is their fault, how can I blame it. Ding Zhen's eyes moved slightly.

Rong Che said: "But speaking of which, General Ding has been governing the army for many years, and he should know how to control his subordinates better than this king, and know how to let his subordinates not violate discipline. ”

The smile on Ding Zhen's face gradually increased, and he said: "The prince is right, the army should be governed strictly, but I didn't manage my subordinates well, so I came to make amends, right?"

"General Ding's words are serious, even if he makes amends, he should go to Dingbeihou, after all, it was his people who were injured. Rong Che said, "This king is just a mouthful, compared to the two of you, this king has a lot to learn." ”

Ding Zhen listened to Rong Che's words, but he couldn't figure out what he meant for a while.

He lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly: "The prince doesn't know, even if I go to Dingbei Hou to apologize, he may not pay attention to me." ”

Rong Che raised his eyes and looked at him puzzled: "I heard that the relationship between the Ding family and the Xiao family has never been good, this king thought that he just heard about it, but he didn't expect that there was really such a thing?"

Seeing that Rong Che seemed to be unaware, Ding Zhen remembered that this prince was out of idleness, and he rarely asked about the affairs of the court, but after the weak crown, he would occasionally go to the court with the three princes to listen to the courtiers' deliberations, how could he know these things.

The emperor can send Rong Che over, which means that this little prince can still rest assured.

"There is indeed some dislike between me and Xiao Jifeng, so Xiao Shaobei didn't want to see me, and it was also said in the past, but sometimes this little marquis is too temperamental, and some things are easy to be impulsive, if I say it, he will definitely ignore it. Ding Zhen sighed lightly, as if he was a little embarrassed, "The emperor asked me to come over to take over this errand, which is really difficult." ”
