Shi Chaoyi was awe-inspiring in his heart, this Tian Chenghei was really ruthless, he was a colleague and general who worked together, and he blurted out such a thing as chopping the whole family into meat paste. He originally thought that he would be ruthless if he killed his brother and stepmother, and he was simply a little sheep compared to Tian Chenghei.

He still shook his head hesitantly: "It's still too risky to do this, Zhang Zhongzhi didn't show his objection, and we can't do it like this." ”

"Does he have any objections, how can I let you know that when he is going to rebel, he will take the heads of you and me! Your Majesty must not be kind to a woman, and miss the great opportunity to kill the traitor. ”

When Shi Chaoyi was still hesitating, Tian Chengsi pulled Li Huaixian over to give him a reassuring pill, and he specially asked Li Huaixian to write a note to Shi Chaoyi from Liaodong City, and Shu Zhong wrote: The minister should do his best to help His Majesty eliminate the traitor. ”

Shi Chaoyi had this sentence as a guarantee, and he was much bolder, and immediately according to Tian Chenghe's plan, he first expanded Zhang Zhongzhi's mansion in Yingzhou City, and then ordered someone to pass on the decree to Zhang Zhongzhi in Yuguan, and crowned him as the king of Deyi County.

After receiving the will, although Zhang Zhongzhi was disdainful on the surface, he was still very happy in his heart, after all, this was the first county king of the Great Yan Kingdom since Shi Siming became emperor, and Tian Chengsi, Li Huaixian and others did not have such treatment. Now he is more and more sure that Shi Chaoyi is bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and the bigger his temper, the more the other party rushes to curry favor.

However, he did not let his guard down, let alone run to Yingzhou to thank him, only on his acre and three points of land, his authority became more and more solid.

This is only the first move in Tian Chenghe's combination boxing, and Shi Chaoyi soon issued an order to Zhang Zhongzhi's son, appointing him as the third secretary of Kaifu Yitong, and to be his sons and daughters.

Zhang Zhongzhi did not stop his son from going to Yingzhou to thank him this time, after all, Shi Chaoyi used a hot face to stick a cold ass twice, and it was impossible to say that he really didn't give the other party any face. I heard that Shi Chaoyi ordered people to expand his mansion in Yingzhou City, just so that his family could go back and enjoy it, and it would not live up to his prestige. As for the safety of his family, he was not worried at all, looking at who dared to harm his family in Yingzhou, and dared to touch his wife, children, and concubines, he simply switched to Li Siye, and became a leading party to lead the army into Liaodong, so that these people could all play.

After Zhang Zhongzhi's family returned to Yingzhou, they did receive preferential treatment from Shi Chaoyi, not only calling his son a brother and brother, but also ordering the children in the family to be doll relatives, and they will marry and become relatives in the future, what else do they have to worry about.

In Shi Chaoyi's greeting to Zhang Zhongzhi, he also respectfully called him uncle, which seemed a bit too honorable, and Zhang Zhongzhi should feel vigilant.

On the eve of his forty-fifth birthday, Shi Chaoyi sent Zhang Zhongzhi another invitation letter of will, in which he said that his uncle worked hard for the country and the people, and how could he stay at the border to endure the bitter cold on the occasion of his birthday.

Zhang Zhongzhi has been fooled, but he has to be modest in advance, and replied: "The border is not a day without generals, and the ministers who are loyal and loyal do not dare to work hard for Your Majesty to congratulate me on my birthday." ”

Shi Chaoyi gave him a decree again: "The important task of the border can be temporarily handed over to the trusted people around me, and I look forward to it, hoping that my uncle will return as soon as possible and share the joy of the monarch and ministers." ”

Zhang Zhongzhi happily went on the road, with a thousand cronies by his side, and the war horse and iron armor opened the way.

They drove all the way to Yingzhou City, but they didn't find anything unusual, and Shi Chaoyi personally took hundreds of officials to greet them outside the city gate. Zhang Zhongzhi fixed his eyes on Shi Chaoyi's side, and there was no Tian Chengsi and Li Huaixian, so he was completely relieved.

Tian Chengsi secretly didn't deal with himself, and not many people knew about it, if he followed Shi Chaoyi to the city gate to greet him, then there would be a demon when something went wrong. It's also his temper to avoid it now. Presumably, this Shi Chaoyi only has the power of sesame seeds in this Yingzhou City, and the rest are all controlled by Tian Chenghei, and it is also appropriate for young people to be a little angry with a few old guys.

The birthday banquet was held in Shi Chaoyi's temporary palace, and Zhang Zhongzhi went to the banquet with more than a dozen tooth soldiers and two tooth generals, and sat on the main seat of the old birthday star. Shi Chaoyi accompanied him on the side with a natural smile, and constantly signaled his officials to praise Zhang Zhongzhi with sweet words, complimenting this old guy flutteringly.

By the time the banquet was half-drunk, Zhang Zhongzhi was already drunk and slightly drunk, and his two teeth would always stand on the left and right without dripping wine, wearing armor and holding a steel knife, which made people feel afraid.

Shi Chaoyi decided not to wait any longer, and ordered a few of his cronies to evacuate Zhang Zhongzhi's case. He saw the opportunity to hold the glass cup in his hand high in his hand and smashed it, and the glass suddenly shattered into eight petals.

The swords and axes squatting behind the banquet hall swarmed up and slashed at Zhang Zhongzhi's family. More than a dozen tooth soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to protect Zhang Zhongzhi, but his fists were hard to beat with four hands, and the evil tigers were also afraid of wolves. Fortunately, the tooth soldiers were not afraid of death, and they came in from the periphery of the palace, and rushed out of the city with Zhang Zhongzhi, who was seriously injured.

Zhang Zhongzhi's family has been slaughtered, only this dying old guy remains, the tooth soldiers led the horse to charge to the city gate, and the Yan army at the city gate had a fierce battle, one tooth general was hit by six arrows, vomiting blood in the mouth to lift Tuoguan, and the other tooth general held a horse lance and the enemy rode at the city gate in a fierce battle, and was besieged to death by six people.

In the end, more than 100 tooth soldiers rushed out of Yingzhou City with the dying Zhang Zhongzhi in arms, and everyone marched to a weathered and dry riverbed, and Zhang Zhongzhi only had one breath left. The crowd carried him to the boulder, and he took the fish bag and seal ribbon from his waist with blood in his hand, and held it in his hand and said only one sentence to these people: "With my fish talisman and seal ribbon on my body, if I come to Yuguan in person, you will nominate a qualified general, and only seek revenge for this blood revenge." ”

After saying that, Zhang Zhongzhi died in anger, and the hundred tooth soldiers took off their pockets and put them on their chests in silence, and they buried him on the riverbed.

The tooth soldiers wanted to return to Yuguan to control the military, but they were really humble in the military, and the highest position was only a small captain. After discussion, they elected the captain Wang Wujun as the main general, and immediately took control of the Ya barracks after returning to Yuguan, and sent people to surrender to Li Siye, who had already occupied Youzhou, and led the army of King Yong into Liaodong. In this way, they can not only exchange for official positions, but also use the power of Li Siye to avenge Zhang Zhongzhi, which can be regarded as a beginning and an end.

After the tooth soldiers returned to Yuguan, they did not tell the Yuguan defenders about Zhang Zhongzhi being beheaded by Shi Chaoyi, and the left-behind generals appointed by Zhang Zhongzhi also stayed away from these tooth soldiers. They closed the door and secretly plotted in their camp, while sending people to Youzhou to surrender.

Li Siye was sitting in the Youzhou Mansion wearing a robe and roasting the fire, and when he heard that someone from Yuguan had come to surrender, he stood up happily and waved his hand: "Please!" ”

At this time, it was snowing heavily in the sky, and the three Youyan tooth soldiers wearing iron armor and leading their horses stood under the hall, bowing slightly towards Li Siye and forking their hands: "We are the tooth soldiers under the command of Zhang Zhongzhi, the commander of Lu Long's soldiers and horses, and we are here to serve King Yong on the order of the general Wang Wujun, we are in armor, please forgive us for not being able to pay full salutes." ”

Li Siye beckoned to them and said, "It's cold outside, and there is a copper stove burning in the hall, so come around to warm up with me and talk about things." ”

The three of them said in fear: "We are just weak tooth soldiers, how dare we sit around the fireplace with King Yong." ”

"How can you distinguish a hero by his status? Those who dare to serve everyone are true heroes, and I should treat each other with courtesy, please! ”
