Chapter 120 - Soft and Hard
With Chen Fa being killed, the three corps outside the Chinese army's tent instantly became leaderless, Lu Kai and Zhang Bufan took the opportunity to go up and control the 30,000 horses in the camp in one fell swoop, and at this time, the four corps in the Songping military camp have also been firmly controlled by Ding Feng, Chu Lianyu and others with lightning speed.
The tense situation between the two sides finally ended with Lin Haotian's complete victory.
Before dawn, the news from both sides had reached the ears of Lin Haotian and Chu Lianyu who were staying in the camp.
At this time, Lin Haotian and Chu Lianyu were still playing chess in the tent of the Chinese army, and a guard suddenly ran in hurriedly from outside the tent, came to the two of them, and the guard knelt on one knee and said, "My lord, Chen Fa and Song Ping have been killed!"
"Oh!" Lin Haotian replied lightly, put the chess pieces in his hand on the chessboard, and said in the same tone: "How are the military horses under the two of them?
"70,000 people are under the control of our army, and some high-ranking generals in each army have also been captured by our army!"
Lin Haotian nodded, indicating that he already knew, and he waved his hand at the guard: "You go out first!"
"The villain retires!"
After the guards left, Lin Haotian turned his head to Chu Lianyu and asked with a smile, "Lianyu, what do you think should be done with these generals?"
When Chu Lianyu heard this, his body trembled, and he hurriedly lowered his head and did not answer.
Chu Lianyu's truest thought in his heart was naturally to get rid of these generals in one fell swoop, so as to vacate the official position and leave it to his own group of people, however, the result of doing so would undoubtedly cause a big uproar in Twin Peaks City, and the result of Zuihou was definitely not something he could bear.
His eyes twitched. He said, "It's all up to the adults." ”
"Haha-" After listening to his words, Lin Haotian pointed to the tip of his nose. Daxiao looked back, shook his head and said, "Let's go." Come with me and see the generals, there are many more places where we need them!"
"Yes!" Chu Lianyu agreed, and followed Lin Haotian out.
Among the generals who are now controlled by Lin Haotian, most of them are some high-level generals under Songping and Chen Fa, and the relationship with the two is also the most intimate.
The generals were gathered in a small school yard outside the tent, at this time. All of them were solemn and worried, walking restlessly and irritably in the open space in the middle of the school grounds.
Judging from the current situation, Chen Fa and Songping have been killed by Lin Haotian, and the military horses under his command have been controlled by Lin Haotian, and the entire Twin Peaks City is actually Lin Haotian's world, and the generals see any hope for the future, and people don't even know if they can survive tonight.
In this state of confusion, fear, and fear. How can the people be at peace?
Just when people were waiting for a nervous breakdown, Lin Haotian finally arrived.
Seeing him, the soldiers around him consciously dodged an aisle, and it didn't take long. A large number of guards rushed up at the end of the aisle, quickly standing on both sides of the aisle, and then. Lin Haotian walked over from the outside under the protection of many guards.
Seeing this, the generals all straightened their bodies. looked at Lin Haotian with big eyes.
Lin Haotian also wore armor, but it was different from the armor of other generals. The armor is pitch black, but the edges are golden, delicate, beautiful and magnificent, and the back is draped in a red daqi, which is embroidered with a unique totem of the Jin Kingdom.
There is no need to speak, just look at what he wears, and the respectful attitude of the guards around him, and people can guess his identity.
Lin Haotian walked straight to the front of the generals, looked at everyone, and said with a smile: "Generals, after tossing for most of the night, I finally invited everyone here, you won't blame me, right?"
A straight-tempered general asked in a rough voice, "Who are you?"
Lin Haotian was stunned for a moment, then smiled, did not answer directly, and asked: "Weishenme no one else asks, but you ask who I am?"
The general exclaimed, "Because they are too timid......"
Lin Haotian shook his head and sneered: "Wrong, because you are stupid!" After a pause, he restrained his smile and said, "I'm Lin Haotian!"
The frightened spirit of the general shivered, and subconsciously looked at his companions on the left and right. At this time, everyone looked at him with sympathy, they were not surprised at all about Lin Haotian's identity, it can be said that the moment he came in, the generals had already guessed who he was.
Lin Haotian ignored him anymore, turned his gaze, looked at the others, and asked with a smile: "Generals, you all tell me how you plan to do it in the future." ”
Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke, in fact, even they themselves did not know what to do in the future. Their master is dead, the soldiers and horses in their hands are gone, and even their own lives are in the hands of others, where do they have the right to choose?
Seeing that none of them spoke, Lin Haotian said: "I can show you a clear way! Now, the king has issued an edict, and I will take over the post of commander-in-chief of the general, and it stands to reason that you should follow the king's order, submit to me, and submit to the king!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a burly general who was originally subordinate to Chen Fa stepped forward and shouted at Lin Haotian: "Dog thief, don't talk here! We are deeply favored by General Chen, how can we descend to you?"
Lin Haotian's eyes were shining, he looked at the general, and said: "Now that Chen Fa is dead, I am the commander of the Great King's personal title, do you want to rebel?"
"Fart!" the general roared angrily, "I'd rather die than surrender!"
"Haha-" Lin Haotian looked up at the other generals and asked, "Do you think the same way as him?"
The generals did not deny it, but they did not admit it either, and they all bowed their heads and were silent.
Lin Haotian shrugged at the general who had just spoken, and said, "It seems that the others don't agree with your statement. ”
The general was furious, looked around at his companions, and shouted: "You have been serving under General Chen, how come you have become greedy for life and afraid of death when it comes to a moment of crisis?"
When he said this, some of the generals were ashamed, and several people were emotional, and they came out of the crowd one after another and stood beside the general.
However, most of these people who came out of the list were Chen Fa's subordinates, and none of the generals under Matsudaira did not move, on the contrary, these people frowned secretly, thinking that it was not wise to do it with Lin Haotian at this time, but to kill themselves, and it was worthless to die.
They were right, Lin Haotian didn't want to see everyone's hostility being stirred up, he raised his hand and pointed at the general who was provocative, and said in a cold voice: "I am in charge of the soldiers and horses in Shuangfeng City on the order of the king, but you refuse to submit, which is disloyal to the king!
As he spoke, he shouted to both sides: "Take down this thief and correct the law on the spot!"
As soon as Lin Haotian's words fell, several guards immediately rushed forward on both sides.
Although the burly general has been trapped in the crowd, it does not mean that he will be obediently restrained, and without waiting for the guards to come close to him, he suddenly drew his sword and rushed straight towards Lin Haotian, while shouting: "Dog thief, Lao Tzu fought with you ......"
He didn't rush in front of Lin Haotian, and before he even finished speaking, the guards on both sides of Lin Haotian had already rushed out together, raising their spears high, drawing two long cold rays in the air, which instantly submerged into the general's chest.
Several guards withdrew their spears and retreated to Lin Haotian's side, and the speed of this time and again only took a few seconds, which was astonishingly fast.
Lin Haotian glanced at the corpse on the ground, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he said with a sneer: "Like this, it's not a pity to die!"
In just a blink of an eye, a general died, and the surrounding generals didn't even have a chance to stop him.
Looking at the broken corpses on the ground, people's faces became more and more ugly, and many people's fists rattled.
Lin Haotian looked around at everyone and said: "Generals, you only have two choices now, one, return to me, and second, what is the result, you have already seen what to do, where to go, to be a loyal minister or a traitor, you choose for yourself!"
As he spoke, he deliberately took out a volume of official documents from his arms and said loudly: "This is the king's edict, if you are obsessed with it, don't blame me for being merciless!" (To be continued......)
