Chapter 193: The Wife
Late at night, dark clouds obscured the moonlight, and a long-lost heavy rain was coming.
Outside Xihua City, the tired Dayan soldiers had already fallen asleep, and only a few waves of patrolling teams walked around the camp.
Suddenly, there was a whooshing sound of breaking through the air, and before the patrolling soldiers could react, they were all hit by arrows in the neck, and they fell before they could make a sound.
In the darkness, hundreds of big men armed with steel knives, like black leopards, quickly rushed into Dayan's camp, taking advantage of the fact that everyone was asleep.
The soldiers were exhausted by the long battle, and it was easy to repel the enemy army before they could sleep at ease, who would have thought that this was deliberately done by the Tiger Army?
Many people were beheaded in their sleep, and nearly 100 people were killed by the Tiger Army, and only then did a person who was awake from sleep feel that something was not right, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the group of enemy soldiers holding bright bloody blades.
"Ahh
"Someone hijacked the camp!"
"Oh my God! General Wang was killed! ”
……
There was chaos in the Dayan military camp, the sound of slashing and killing continued, and in an instant, flames erupted, and screams were repeated......
A battle lasted until dawn, in the drizzle, Xiao Xiao led 100,000 tiger troops into Xihua City, quickly occupied the government and granary, took over the city defense, put the surviving important officials and family members of Xi Huacheng in prison, arranged heavy guards, and the prisoners were uniformly arranged into prisoner of war camps.
At the same time, several military orders were issued.
"In Xihua City, the Tiger Army is not allowed to loot the people's property or commit adultery
lewd
Women are not allowed to trample on fertile land, and if they have daily needs, they can trade and not pay on credit, and if they are found to have violated military orders, they are to be fined 100 rods. He pointed to the two men kneeling in the tent with dead faces, and said, "These two are adulterers."
lewd
Women, pull out, military justice, to set an example! ”
"Yes!"
Immediately, someone obeyed the order and pulled the two disheveled men down, and soon, the sound of sticks to meat came from outside the account.
Zheng Pei frowned and said disapprovingly: "Lord Wang, punishing the soldiers like this is afraid that it will make the brothers feel cold." They fought with you, but it's just these little things, why should they be like this? A hundred sticks will cost people's lives! ”
Xiao Xuanjia's armor was stained with blood, there were brown blood spots on Jun's face, his long eyebrows were slanted, his phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed, and at this moment, the fierce evil aura around his body was rushing to his face, like a demon god who came out of hell, and he was a little more majestic than usual.
Zheng Pei lowered his head, and the rest of the generals and captains of the Tiger Army in the account were also solemn.
"So, Mr. Zheng has a holy decree?" He smiled with a smile.
But when these words were heard in Zheng Pei's ears, it was like a few slaps directly in his face.
He is Xiao Zhongzheng's staff and a close confidant of Xiao Xiao, so he can gain a firm foothold in the Tiger Ben Army as a strategist.
Zheng Pei is well aware of the worship and trust of the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army for the Xiaoxiao, it can be said that the mobilization of 100,000 Tiger Ben troops, even if the Holy Lord does not give the talisman, the Poke of the Owl into the army is a living talisman, and his words are more effective than the real talisman.
If these people knew what he had done, it would lower his prestige. Even if he is close to the saint, there is nothing wrong with the truth, but emotionally he is still a betrayer.
The emperor was suspicious, and even if he told the truth, the emperor might not trust him.
Although he is also wise and cunning, he has a benevolent heart, and as long as he behaves well, he will inevitably be sheltered.
Therefore, Zheng Pei's attitude at this moment was completely different from before, and he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The prince said that he laughed, where will there be any secret decree in the saint." The old man was just worried about the prince, and he would say this for the sake of the prince. After all, the Tiger Ben army is all the descendants of the prince. ”
The owl paced in the tent, and the horsewhip in his hand pulled out loud whips.
"In this battle, we and Dayan are fighting to the death. The saint is determined to win Dayan, and if he captures Dayan in the future, will he die one by one, piece by piece of wasteland? ”
Zheng Pei, Huzi, and the rest of the soldiers in the tent all looked at Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao stood in the first place, holding the hilt of his sword and said: "This king's decision is to prepare for the Holy Lord to rule Great Yan in the future, Emperor Yan is mediocre, the people have lived under oppression and hunger for many years, and the war has been miserable for many years, they will need someone to end this troubled world." If our people are worse than their people in Dayan, what do you say will happen to the people? ”
"The prince is wise."
Everyone understood, and they all gave their hands in admiration.
Seeing this, he bowed his head and said, "Everyone who has worked hard today, let's go and rest." ”
"Yes."
The generals bowed and retreated, and in a short time only the owl and the tiger were left in the tent.
Huzi stepped forward with a smile and took off his armor, "Lord Wang, I just ordered someone to prepare hot water, you should take a bath quickly." ”
"Hmm. Is there any news from Kyoto? Xiao Xiao asked, while neatly taking off his blood-stained robe, revealing his hardcover upper body, and walking to the screen in black silk pants, there was a sound of water.
Huzi rolled up his sleeves and waited for the owl to wash his hair and wipe his back.
"It's been a while since I heard from Jiyun. However, our spies have just sent the news, and the prince is busy fighting, so I didn't say anything. ”
Xiao Xiao spread his arms and rested on the edge of the barrel, closed his eyes and said: "There is no news from Jiyun, which means that the situation of the Qin family is very tense, with the temperament of Wei Chi Old Dog, maybe as soon as he learns the news of my war here, he will be angry with the Qin family." Qin Taishi is now afraid that his official position will not be guaranteed, and he may even worry about his life. It's the Cao family......"
Xiao Xiao paused for a moment before continuing: "I'm afraid that Old Dog Wei Chi can't think about it, and even the land that the eight poles of Tatar can't hit also wants to be used, and the Cao family will inevitably be reinstated." ”
Huzi took a handkerchief and wrapped his hands to wipe his back, and said with admiration: "The master is really like a god, isn't the spying back just as you analyzed, Cao Guozhang recovered, and was once again named the prince and the prince, Lord Qin was stripped of all his official positions, retained his title, and was put under the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, we sneaked up on the right outpost camp of their five military camps, and scared the people into the city, and the dog emperor refused to allocate money to feed." ”
Speaking of this, Huzi said with some apprehension: "There is also the fourth miss, that, that ......"
"If you have anything to say, just say it, how are you like a girl."
Huzi secretly rolled his eyes and thought: Don't be angry when I said to your old man.
Immediately, he told Xiao Xiao how Qin Yining sold the treasures in Ning Yuan and how he resettled the homeless.
Hearing this, he was silent.
Huzi silently continued to serve the owl and wipe his back, not daring to say a word, and secretly wondering if the prince was about to explode.
Who knew that it was only a moment, but the owl burst out laughing.
Hey, isn't the prince confused?
Xiao Xiao said: "Sister Yi is so good at spending money, it seems that this king also has to think of saving more wives, otherwise what if the money is not enough in the future?" ”
Toilet......
"You will order you to go down tomorrow and arrest those corrupt officials in Xihua City, as well as those rich and unkind landlords who have been branded by the common people as 'skinning', 'Hades', and 'full warehouses', and so on, and those who are particularly dangerous in resisting fiercely, and take their property to the public and use their property as military salaries. Then find a way to exaggerate the news and spread it to Dayan City. ”
Huzi was stunned when he heard this: "Lord Wang, didn't you just say that you want to make the people of the Yan Dynasty feel that our Great Zhou is merciful?" ”
"This king has a reason, you just listen to orders."
Although Huzi didn't understand, he still nodded seriously: "Yes." ”
