Chapter 128: Captain
Yang Qi had been in retreat for two days, and he had finally refined all the three drops of Heavenless Tyrant's blood, and his cultivation had reached the middle realm of mountains and rivers and Yuqing, which made him a little happy.
I have to say that the cultivation of extreme mountains and rivers is indeed very difficult, originally three drops of overlord blood were enough for ordinary monks to improve three small realms, but here in Yang Qi, there was barely one.
Of course, being able to improve a small realm would already make Yang Qi satisfied, because in the process of refining, he almost stayed at the peak of the lower realm of mountains and rivers and Yuqing, and stopped moving.
Now that he has successfully refined, Yang Qi has no reason to stay any longer, and needs to leave for Yuzhou immediately to solve the matter of the flying thieves there, and finally be able to meet Kunwu directly.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the room where Yang Qi was, followed by a middle-aged man's eager voice, saying, "Mr. Yang, Tong Feng has something to meet. ”
When Yang Qi heard this, his brows furrowed, and when he left, he didn't want to delay for a moment because of other things outside his body, but he still opened the door, saw Tong Feng, and said, "What is the matter with Deputy Lieutenant Tong?"
Tong Feng looked hurried and said, "A few days ago, Lord Liu sent a distress signal to the western military, asking for support. Today, Captain Mo personally led his troops to come, but when he learned that the mountain bandits had been destroyed, he was furious on the spot, thinking that we were teasing them. ”
Yang Qi was expressionless and said, "So what?"
Tong Feng said: "That's the case, originally this matter can be easily revealed as long as you give a few things, after all, people travel long distances and always need some rewards, and Lord Liu is also very willing." But just when the two sides were discussing, Captain Mo suddenly asked why Huaiyin County was able to exterminate the mountain bandits, and Lord Liu was helpless, so he said that Mr. helped. ”
Yang Qi understood what was going on, so he said, "Presumably, when Lord Liu said my name, Captain Mo immediately became curious, and he wanted to see me no matter what, right?"
When Tong Feng heard this, he was stunned at first, then nodded and said, "What Mr. said is right, that's exactly what he said." ”
Yang Qi said lightly: "It's really not clean. ”
Next, Yang Qi followed Tong Feng to the county office, since the other party insisted on meeting each other, it was not good for Yang Qi to refuse directly, otherwise it would most likely affect Liu Xu, who was the county commander.
Tong Feng took Yang Qi directly to the back hall of the county ya, and at this moment, there were several high-level officials of Huaiyin County such as Liu Xu and Li Yan in the hall, and their eyes fell on the first seat.
Yang Qi followed their gaze and looked at the first seat, where there was a burly general in his thirties, who must have been the Captain Mo mentioned by Tong Feng.
At this moment, Captain Mo noticed Yang Qi's arrival, so he set his eyes on him, and several people in the hall also cast their eyes when they saw this.
Captain Mo was expressionless, unable to see joy and sorrow, and said in a flat tone: "Presumably you are Yang Qi sent by the state religion to help Huaiyin County?"
Yang Qi smiled slightly, clasped his fists and said, "It is Yang Qi, a disciple of the National Sect." ”
Lieutenant Mo said: "Liu County's order mentioned that it was all up to you to help exterminate the Wufeng Mountain bandits. At such a young age, it is really terrifying to have such an act. ”
Yang Qi said flatly: "To be able to exterminate the Wufeng Mountain bandits, it is only through the concerted efforts of the entire Huaiyin County military and civilians that it can succeed, and Yang Qi does not dare to take credit." ”
Captain Mo said: "It is extremely rare for young people to be neither humble nor arrogant. But if you attempt to interfere with the military affairs in the west, if you report it to the general, you will be beheaded for public display. ”
When Liu Xu and the others heard this, their faces changed slightly, and they didn't expect Captain Mo to say this. Yang Qi had a meritorious service in suppressing bandits, not only did he not reward him, but he wanted to behead him to show the public, wouldn't it mean that he had chilled the hearts of the soldiers and people of Huaiyin County?
Yang Qi frowned, but he was still calm, and said, "What does the captain mean by this?"
Captain Mo smiled coldly and said, "What do you mean? The extermination of the mountain bandits was done by the military, and as a disciple of the state religion, you originally came to help, but you overstepped your authority and made your own decisions, don't you take the general seriously?"
When Yang Qi heard this, he secretly sneered, but on the surface he still said quietly: "As the people of the Great Zhou, for the country and the people, and to fight against mountain bandits, it is really laughable to be charged with such a crime." ”
Captain Mo said in a cold voice: "As a disciple of the National Religion, you don't understand military operations at all, but you attack the mountain bandits on your own initiative, if you are a little careless, can you afford such consequences?"
Yang Qi sneered and said: "If the captain says a few words, he will be convicted, which is a bit hasty. People who don't know the inside story may think that the captain is jealous because of Yang Qi's meritorious work in suppressing bandits, so he is embarrassed. ”
These words were heart-wrenching, which made Captain Demo's face extremely gloomy. Originally, he was going to embarrass Yang Qi, but when Yang Qi said it clearly, he seemed a little out of grace.
Captain Mo said coldly: "This general is dedicated to the country, how can he be a jealous person? Obviously, you are indiscriminately interfering in the military, and according to the laws of the Great Zhou, you should be beheaded. ”
When Yang Qi heard this, his expression was calm, and he said: "Captain Fang Cai once asked whether he could bear the consequences of the failure to suppress the bandits. Here, I can tell you with great certainty that there is absolutely no possibility of failure. ”
Captain Mo stood up and said, "Since General Ben was beaten out of his mother's womb, he has never seen an arrogant young man like you, the battlefield is changing rapidly, is it impossible for you to say?"
Yang Qi sneered and said: "Don't be angry, the captain doesn't care about the merit of exterminating the Wufeng Mountain bandits, if the captain likes it, you can take it, lest people say that your western military has done nothing, and it can be regarded as a reward for the general's long journey." ”
Captain Mo was said by Yang Qi to grit his teeth, this person is young, and he has pondered his mind so transparently, he really deserves to be an elite who studied under the state religion.
Since he personally led the troops to Huaiyin County, Captain Mo has thought about making a good contribution, and then he will be more sure to compete for the position of deputy lieutenant. Unexpectedly, when he arrived, he heard that someone had cleared the bandits, and he was quite angry.
Therefore, in his eyes, Yang Qi was snatching credit and hindering him from becoming the deputy lieutenant, so he became resentful and asked Liu Xu to send someone to call Yang Qi to come, deliberately embarrassing.
Originally, I thought that the Wufeng Mountain bandits were destroyed, but Huaiyin County ordered Liu Xu to lead the troops in a good way, and Liu Xu, as a local parent official, he didn't want to say much, he just wanted to ask for some money, so he wanted to leave.
However, he didn't expect that Yang Qi, who was not a person in the officialdom, was carefully planning behind this matter, so he had a reason to vent his anger.
But what he didn't expect was that the young Yang Qi was not at a loss because of this, on the contrary, he was sharp and eloquent, and he figured out everything he thought clearly, and said it in public, which was really hateful.
