Chapter 152: Coercion
After Xu Haifeng placed Taiyi Zhenren properly, he returned to the palace.
Unexpectedly received the allegiance of this known as the world's number one master, Xu Haifeng was overjoyed.
Since he is an old man sitting here, even if Grandmaster Auburn recovers from his injuries and makes a comeback, it will be difficult to please him.
At this point, Wolong City can be called impregnable, but I am afraid that even the palace of Emperor Han Xian is not as safe as him.
In order to ambush Auburn in the city, Xu Haifeng mobilized many masters, and even several private houses were requisitioned. After the failure of the ambush, he ordered martial law and a strict search for the whole city.
Of course, they all knew that if they could really catch Grandmaster Auburn, it would be called a ghost.
So the order was nominally to arrest the Assassins, but in reality it was just a pretext for other purposes.
Early the next morning, Xu Haifeng was discussing the future development steps with Jiang Kongming, and the general direction had already been determined.
At this time, Tong Yi came to the door to ask for a meeting.
Beckoning him into the study, since Xu Haifeng had the intention of soliciting, his attitude towards him was different, and after giving up his seat to watch the tea, Xu Haifeng asked, "What is General Tong doing here?" ”
Tong Yi hesitated, licked his lips, and then said with difficulty: "That group of Caesar messengers has been waiting in the city for more than half a month, has the general seen him?" ”
Xu Haifeng glanced at him unexpectedly, Tong Yiyi is a steady and cautious person. What did this Caesar messenger have to do with him, that he was able to make him urge him again and again, so that there must be a reason for it.
Jiang Kongming smiled dumbly, and said: "General Tong is really energetic, yesterday he had a happy night with that Caesar slave girl, and now he is full of energy, let me admire and admire." ”
Xu Haifeng also smiled faintly, it turned out that the Caesar people used beauty tricks. It's just that I don't know if he can bear this old bone when he sings every night.
Tong Yi was shocked, he didn't expect Jiang Kongming to even find out about this matter, and hurriedly said: "The lower officials were confused for a while, and they accepted the gifts they gave them, which really shouldn't be, and after going back, the original items will be returned immediately." ”
Jiang Kongming frowned and did not answer. Xu Haifeng knew that in the heart of this Jiang Dajunshi, people were equal. Therefore, I am very disgusted by Tong Yi's statement that he compares people to goods.
He smiled slightly and said, "General Tong doesn't have to mind, Master Military is just joking with you." ”
Regarding Tong Yiyi's private bribery, Xu Haifeng didn't mind very much. Jiang Kongming also once said that when the water is clear, there are no fish, and if you want all the officials in the world to work for the people and no longer bend the law for bribes, it is simply unrealistic and absurd. So as long as they didn't do too much and provoked the anger of the people, Xu Haifeng turned one eye open and closed one eye, just as if he hadn't seen it.
Jiang Kongming glanced at Xu Haifeng, only to see that he stretched out his thumb to himself, and heard what he said with the magic skill of "transmitting sound into the secret": "Master Military Master is very good, this mind-reading technique has been perfected." ”
With a knowing smile, Jiang Kongming raised his head and said with a pleasant face: "General Tong, my lord has always been bold and righteous, and he treats the generals under his command even more...... Ahem, never treated lightly. If General Tong is dedicated to following, even if he splits the soil and seals the marquis, he may not know. ”
His original intention was to boast about Xu Haifeng, but after thinking about it, Xu Haifeng, as the commander of the Black Flag Army, has not only not bothered for any soldier for more than a year, but also filled his own pocket with all his military salaries. This kind of behavior has nothing to do with loving soldiers like a son in any way.
Although his face was as thick as a city wall, he was also a little embarrassed at this time, so he had to say a simple word.
Tong Yiyi's face changed, and he couldn't imagine that he would say such a rebellious remark on the spot without any scruples, and for a while, his heart was like a drum, and the corners of his mouth moved twice, but he couldn't answer.
His heart is like a mirror hanging, the bright hall is tight, since Jiang Kongming said it so clearly, he is deliberately trying to pull himself into the gang. If you refuse, you are afraid that a catastrophe will happen immediately.
He weighed it again and again, and hesitated, even though the Black Flag Army was famous all over the world, but if he wanted to confront the Central Court with the power of an army, he was afraid that it would still be more than lucky. If you enter the thief ship, I am afraid that it will be easy to go up, and it will be difficult to come down again.
When the time comes, I'm afraid it will still be difficult to escape this knife in the neck.
He subconsciously raised his eyes and saw the two people above looking at him with a smile.
Tong Yi shivered unfreely, although they were full of smiles, but there was no smile in their eyes. Tong Yiyi suddenly understood that at this time, it was already a man-made knife, and I was a fish and meat, and there was no room for bargaining.
He suddenly took two steps forward, bowed to Xu Haifeng, and said, "The last general will see the lord." ”
Xu Haifeng personally helped him up in laughter and said, "General Tong is polite, everyone will be their own people in the future, and there is no need to make this big gift." ”
Tong Yi nodded hurriedly.
Jiang Kongming also stood up, bypassed the table, came to him, and said: "It is said that the general's family lives in the Western camp, and the students have sent troops to escort them over, and they will be able to enjoy family fun with the general in the future." ”
Tong Yiyi's face turned pale in an instant, this person is not only knowledgeable, but also ruthless, and that sentence clearly threatens him with his own family.
He barely squeezed out a smile and said, "The lower official's family affairs are even bothering the military master to bother with it, and I really can't afford it." ”
Jiang Kongming laughed and said, "Since the lord said that General Tong will be his own family in the future, then the student wants to bother the general with something, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
Tong Yiyi knew that there must be no good errands, but at this moment, even if he was unwilling in his heart, he didn't dare to declare it: "The military master only commands, and the subordinate officials must do their best to serve the lord and the military master." ”
Jiang Kongming handed over a piece of paper with a smile, Tong Yi took it easily, opened it suspiciously, and suddenly gasped, looking at Jiang Kongming's eyes with a look of horror.
There are some names written on this paper, which may be incomprehensible to others, but Tong Yiyi knows it clearly, these people are the eyes and ears of the two giants of the Cheng family and the Sky Eagle Legion placed in the city.
"These people are all Caesars lurking in Wolong City, so I asked General Tong to send men and horses to wipe them out." Jiang Kongming put away his smile and said with a straight face.
Tong Yiyi knew that once they were captured, it would represent a break with these two forces.
Xu Haifeng may not care yet, but he, the executor, is at a loss. From then on, there was no other way out of Xu Haifeng wholeheartedly.
It's just that the matter has come to this, and he has no choice but to say astringently: "The lower official obeys the order." ”
Jiang Kongming held his hand and said earnestly: "The students have already issued martial law, and Wolong City is not allowed to enter or leave." The general must be careful when he goes, and don't let any fish slip through the net. Remember, it's better to kill the wrong than to let it go. ”
Tong Yiyi's body trembled slightly, gritted his teeth and said, "The lower official understands, and he will definitely live up to the trust of the military master." ”
"Okay, the general can go, and the military advisor and I are here to wait for good news." Xu Haifeng smiled happily and said casually: "When the general goes out, call the Caesar messenger by the way." ”
Tong Yi said goodbye and went out of the room, only to find that his vest was already soaked in cold sweat, and it was extremely uncomfortable to stick to the back.
For this ordinary-looking military advisor, Tong Yi said yesterday that he admired what he had learned in his chest, but today he said that he was both respectful and afraid. From before he openly and honestly recruited himself, he had already arranged all the affairs one by one, and he was not afraid that he would not obey at all.
Such cunning makes people shudder.
What made him even more frightened was that this Jiang Kongming's ears and eyes seemed to be omnipresent, and it was only a little more than a day to go to Wolong City, and he actually knew everything about the affairs of the city. Even the deployment of the two major forces in the city that he had worked so hard to deduce was written down by him in the slightest.
This is simply impossible, and the only explanation is that when Xu Haifeng left, he hid a large number of secret agents in the city, so he could know everything about the city.
Thinking that what he was doing was under Xu Haifeng's surveillance at all times, Tong Yiyi felt that his hairs stood on end and he was drenched in cold sweat.
He subconsciously looked around, as if Xu Haifeng's eyes and ears were staring at him there.
Seeing Tong Yiyi leave tremblingly, Xu Haifeng and Jiang Kongming looked at each other and smiled.
Just now, the two of them cooperated tacitly and played with Tong Yi in the palm of their hands. Since then, Tong Yi has never rebelled.
In fact, what made Tong Yi suspicious was not Xu Haifeng's ears and eyes in the city, but Jiang Kongming's unique mind-reading skills, which were much more effective than any secret agent.
"Master Strategist has taken great pains this time, and this General Tong is not wronged in your hands." Xu Haifeng said with a smile.
Jiang Kongming sat back in his seat leisurely, stretched his somewhat tired limbs comfortably, and said, "Yesterday, I checked the account books in the city, and they were clearly organized and clear at a glance. With the ancient algorithm to have such results, this Tong Yi is indeed a top-notch talent in logistics and internal affairs. ”
Xu Haifeng casually flipped through the account book on the table, looking careless: "The Caesar people are coming, what kind of price does the military master plan to set for Addis?" ”
Jiang Kongming showed a playful smile on his face: "Of course, it's a sky-high price." ”
