Chapter 15: The Battle for the Flag
"Chen Jiangtian took the order."
Jiang Tian bowed down to accept the order.
Although he has a grudge against King Moyun, in front of so many people, there must be no less courtesy.
"Jiang Tian, after I have thought about it again and again, I remember that you are still young, and in terms of qualifications and military merits, you are not enough to serve as the deputy general of Xiban City......"
Wang Gonggong deliberately dragged the tail note long, stared at Jiang Tianxuan: "Therefore, first demote you to the fourth rank, compete fairly with others, first serve as the garrison of the Xiban City, and then officially serve as the deputy general after winning." ”
"What, demotion or demotion?"
When Situ Bei and the others heard this, their faces all became very ugly.
This is simply a slap in the face of Jiang Tian in public, naked, and naked humiliation of these people.
Moreover, Jiang Tian is their main general, as soon as the military rank is lowered, they will also be lowered, how can they not be resentful and unwilling.
"Jiang Tian's order."
Jiang Tian had already expected such a result, and after receiving the order, he walked back to his seat with an indifferent expression, but his heart was worried about the safety of King Moyun.
After what happened to Dabi, he knew that King Moyun must have a hard time, not as indifferent and ruthless as he thought.
In front of tens of thousands of warriors, the matter was changed in a blink of an eye, obviously threatened by Queen Liu.
"Elder Qi and the others have said that it is rumored that he has been poisoned by souls, is it true?"
"Liu Xuetang, you really deserve to die!"
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel hatred for Liu Xuetang, which deepened several times, and he was murderous.
Although he still has a grudge against King Moyun, after all, he is his biological father, how can he watch him being persecuted and indifferent?
Thinking that it was Queen Liu who poisoned King Moyun, but framed Su Pan, causing the Su family to be baptized by Liu's blood, he was even more indignant.
"Hey, hey!"
On Jiang Tian's way back, Liu Hucheng smiled at him vigorously, and he was even happier than his official promotion to the third grade.
At this time, the prince pinched his throat and announced: "Liu Geng took the order." ”
"Chen Liu Geng takes the order!"
Liu Geng's voice was loud, and his momentum was obviously better than Jiang Tian.
"General Liu, your nephew is dignified, what a talent!"
Seeing this, someone immediately flattered Liu Hucheng on the side.
"That's that, Geng'er, this kid is really angry."
Liu Hucheng's face was full of smiles, not to mention how proud he was.
Originally, he was deflated at Jiang Tian's hands, and he was worried that there was no way to retaliate, but Queen Liu immediately sent the prince to suppress Jiang Tian, which was too timely and angry.
"Liu Geng, I remember that you have repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and you have been specially promoted to the rank of the fourth rank and served as the garrison of the Ximan City......"
The prince announced that he deliberately stared at Jiang Tian and the others: "Compete with the eighth prince Jiang Tian for the position of deputy general of Ximan City!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen!"
Liu Geng knelt down on one knee to receive the holy decree from the hands of the prince, his face was calm, and he did not show much joy.
"Boss, it's up, it's great!"
Zhu Peng and the others couldn't help but be overjoyed, raising their eyebrows at Jiang Tian and the others from time to time, looking gloating.
After comparing these two holy decrees, if anyone still can't see that the rulers of the royal capital want to promote Liu Geng and suppress Jiang Tian, it will inevitably be too dull.
"General!"
In the face of this kind of provocation, even Situ Bei lost his composure, not to mention Chu Hongyu, Jiang Yi and others, who looked at Jiang Tian one after another, hoping that he would agree to kill the prestige of Zhu Peng and others.
"Calm me down."
At this time, Jiang Tian had calmed down and ordered Situ Fei and the others in a cold voice.
Since he got the reward, he felt that things were going too smoothly, and now that Queen Liu finally made a move, it was actually better, so as not to be overshadowed when he got it.
"Princess, did Your Majesty say how to decide the winner?"
After the prince announced his decree, Liu Hucheng asked with bad intentions.
The prince glanced at Jiang Tian and the others, and said flatteringly: "No, Niangniang said, this is the internal appointment and dismissal of your Ximan City, and the candidates are decided, and the details are up to you." ”
"I just told me that it should not take more than half a year at most, and we must decide on a good candidate."
"In that case......
Liu Hucheng pretended to pull his beard profoundly, and said to Lu Mingda: "General, I think the winner will be decided in four months......
"As for the rules, it's still according to the old rules of our Western Barbarian Army - a battle for the battle flag......
"Real swords and real guns, to see whose team is strong, who wins more battle flags, even if who wins, this is the fairest."
"Battle Flag Battle, good!"
When Zhu Peng, Ling Tao and the others heard this, they immediately applauded loudly at Jiang Tianfang, looking like they were going to win.
"Battle flag battle?"
The faces of Situ Bei and the others became very ugly.
The so-called battle flag battle refers to planting two-color battle flags on some mountain passes, and the two armies each have one side, attack each other, capture one place, and then change the battle flag to their own color, until the end of the time limit, whichever side has more battle flags, which side will win.
This rule seems to be very fair, but in fact, it is extremely unfair to Jiang Tian and their side.
Because they are new to the city, it can be said that there is not a single soldier, and everything has to start from scratch.
And Liu Geng has been rooted in Ximan City for more than ten years, and he already has a strong team in his hands.
If you want to level the disadvantage in just four months, it is impossible to say that it is absolutely impossible, but it will certainly be difficult.
What's more, in the past four months, Liu Hucheng and a group of subordinates will definitely make a hindrance, Jiang Tian wants to improve the strength in his hands, how can it be so easy?
"Hey, I finally saw a little hope, and there was no hope."
Lu Mingda couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and his mentality was even more depressed than before.
Before Jiang Tian came, Liu Hucheng carried out a series of actions in Xiban City, coupled with the holy decree of the prince and the prince, he almost concluded that Jiang Tian had no chance of winning.
"It seems that Liu Hucheng will be more arbitrary and assertive in the future......"
The other middle-level officers in Ximan City all thought of this, and some of those who had previously refused to take refuge in Liu Hucheng also became shaken.
Although they want to maintain discipline, after all, people seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and if their survival is threatened, how can they be qualified to talk about discipline?
"Come, drink, princess, you have come from thousands of miles away, I will toast you first!"
At this time, Liu Hucheng didn't want to mention how beautiful it was in his heart, he raised his wine glass and kept toasting, especially those who didn't deal with him on weekdays, and they were even more respectful.
Even the stupidest of them knew that now was the perfect time to win them over.
There is no good feast, this sentence is really not wrong at all.
At the banquet, Zhu Peng, Ling Tao and others tried their best to provoke, so angry that Situ Bei and others were all ugly.
Especially Chu Hongyu, her face is almost blue, although she is a woman, her temperament is stronger than ordinary men, and her self-esteem is extremely strong, how can she stand this kind of anger.
"General, I don't know which city you plan to divide His Highness and Prince Liu Geng into as a garrison?"
After three rounds of drinking, the prince still thought that Jiang Tian's side was not resentful enough, and asked Lu Mingda drunkly.
