This......

Listening to Tang Tingbai's words, Kong Rong's face changed, he didn't expect that Tang Tingbai, a tyrant, would be the first to call him.

Did you really discover his evil deeds?

For a while, Kong Rong's head was already full of cold sweat.

He hurriedly kowtowed: "Back to the emperor, the current battle situation in Jiangnan Mansion is stable, and the 50,000 troops of the Ryukyus have only occupied two counties in Jiangnan Mansion, as long as we defend Lingling County, the enemy will not want to fight over!" ”

Oh?

Hearing this, Tang Tingbai smiled.

"Jiangnan Prefecture has an army of 20,000, even if it is an army of 50,000 in the face of the Ryukyu vassal states, it should not lose two counties in an instant, right?"

"This ...... Minister, minister doesn't know what's going on! ”

Tang Tingbai smiled again, but this smile was very cold: "Master Kong, tomorrow I will have a military parade, and tomorrow morning I will gather all the soldiers and horses, understand?" ”

"The minister understands!" Kong Rong nodded hurriedly, he knew that Tang Tingbai definitely knew about his empty salary.

As for asking him to gather soldiers and horses, let alone 20,000 people, even if it is only 5,000 people, he doesn't have them!

Let him find fifteen thousand soldiers overnight, that will never be possible.

It seems that tonight, we can only run away first.

As long as he returned to Kyoto, with the invincible protection of his godfather Zhuge , Tang Tingbai, a tyrant, would not dare to do anything to him.

Jiangnan prefect Hua Sheng hurriedly smiled with a smile on his face: "Hehe, the emperor, let's go in and talk, after all, there are many people here, and it is easy to be in danger." ”

Tang Tingbai nodded with a smile, and he looked at the Jiangnan prefect carefully.

According to Jinyiwei's information, this Jiangnan prefect is only forty-five years old and in the prime of life.

But at this moment, the flower fungus in front of him was already gray, and his face was full of wrinkles.

said that he was sixty years old, and Tang Tingbai also believed it!

It's obviously overworked for the people of Jiangnan Mansion.

Tang Tingbai was a little distressed and a little relieved.

If Dayan's officials were like Hua Sheng, maybe the life of the people in the world would be much better!

Everyone walked into the City Lord's Mansion.

Tang Tingbai sat in the first place.

On the left sat the officials of Jiangnan Mansion, and on the right sat the four Taibao and Xiang Yu of Jinyiwei.

"Your Majesty, yesterday the Ryukyu army attacked Lingling County, and was repelled by Kong Rong's general army with 3,000 soldiers and horses, and Kong Rong's general army can be regarded as a high degree of hard work." Hua Sheng laughed.

Although he also looked down on Kong Rong, then again, this was their West Lake person after all.

No matter how disgusting he was, he had to protect Kong Rong.

Three thousand?

Tang Tingbai frowned: "Is there only three thousand soldiers and horses in Jiangnan Mansion?" What about the rest? All dead in battle? ”

This......

Hua Sheng smiled wryly and did not speak.

Kong Rong seemed to see hope, and hurriedly spoke: "Emperor Qi, the Jiangnan Mansion has an army of 20,000, but in fact there are only 15,000 people, and the remaining 5,000 have been paid by the former chief soldiers, and the subordinates originally wanted to expand the army, but you also know that the imperial court had no money during the previous period, so the military department did not agree, and most of the 15,000 people are old, weak, sick and disabled, and there are less than 5,000 people who can really fight." ”

Speaking of this, Kong Rong seemed to be satisfied with the excuse he had made up: "So, now Jiangnan Mansion can only fight 5,000 people, and some time ago it lost 2,000 people in the Ryukyu War, so now Jiangnan Mansion can only use 3,000 soldiers and horses." ”

After speaking, Kong Rong knelt directly in front of Tang Tingbai, kowtowing like pounding garlic.

"Please forgive the emperor, the minister did not report the matter in time, please forgive the emperor!"

Oh?

Tang Tingbai sneered, but he didn't speak.

Instead, he turned his head to look at Shen Quan: "Shen Quan, tell me about the results of your Jinyiwei investigation!" ”

Shen Quan nodded immediately, and he took out a piece of information from his arms.

"According to Jinyiwei's investigation, Shen Quan, the chief soldier of Jiangnan, embezzled military salaries as high as 300,000 taels of silver, and at the same time framed Zhongliang and killed the people."

Hearing this, Kong Rong's face changed, and he was shocked in his heart.

He thought he was doing something very secretive, but how could he still be discovered?

When did Jinyiwei's strength become so strong?

Tang Tingbai sneered and looked at Kong Rong: "Hehe, Master Kong, is there anything else to say?" ”

Minister......

Kong Rong didn't say a word, he knew that since Jinyiwei had the evidence, Tang Tingbai, a tyrant, would never let him go.

"The minister has nothing to say, he just asks the emperor to let go of the minister's family, they ...... They don't know anything, and everything is done by one minister. As he spoke, Kong Rong kowtowed a few times to Tang Tingbai again.

Tang Tingbai did not speak.

Shen Quan had already taken out the embroidered spring knife on his waist and walked in front of Kong Rong: "Master Kong, this town envoy will personally send you on your way!" ”

Puff –

Blood splattered.

A head fell to the ground.

Jiangnan General Soldier, from Sanpin, died.

Tang Tingbai's face was still calm, and he was even a little disappointed.

Because Kong Rong has 3,000 men under him, if he leads 3,000 people to resist, he will have the slightest chance of survival.

However, this guy didn't even have the courage to resist.

In fact, Kong Rong really thought about resisting for a moment, but soon he gave up the idea in his heart.

The character who can become the chief soldier of Jiangnan is definitely not a fool.

He knew in his heart that Tang Tingbai had a thousand Temple troops by his side, and they were all strength above the Heavenly Rank.

Even if he resisted with his soldiers and horses, he would certainly not be a match for the Templars.

Once it fails, it will definitely end up with the fate of destroying the Nine Clans.

Therefore, for the sake of his wife and children and the entire three-hundred-year-old family, he must not resist.

And the officials in Jiangnan looked at the corpses on the ground, their eyes widened, and they didn't dare to say a word.

They have lived in Jiangnan for a long time, although they also know that Tang Tingbai is a tyrant, although they have also heard that Tang Tingbai kills people like hemp.

But it was the first time they had felt the horror of this tyrant so closely, and they were simply not human.

Tang Tingbai was full of smiles, and he was just about to speak, when the voice of the system suddenly came.

"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for killing the corrupt official, and the system rewards the host king hero Sikong Zhen."

"At present, Sikong Zhen's identity is the deputy chief soldier of Jiangnan Mansion, and he is now locked up in the prison of Jiangnan Mansion because he offended Kong Rongxian, the chief soldier of Jiangnan."

Hearing the system's words, Tang Tingbai was overjoyed.

Sikong Zhen, that old guy who can put lightning.

"Lord Hua, the position of the Jiangnan General Soldier can't be vacant all the time, I heard that the Jiangnan Deputy Chief Soldier Sikong Zhen was locked up by Kong Rong?" Tang Tingbai was full of smiles.

Hua Sheng was stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded, he had already guessed what Tang Tingbai meant: "Back to the emperor, Sikong Zhen was indeed locked up in prison, and the minister immediately let Sikong Zhen go and let him take over the position of the chief soldier of Jiangnan Mansion!" ”

Tang Tingbai smiled with satisfaction, and he looked at Hua Sheng again: "Lord Hua, I will take the Temple Army to destroy the 50,000 Ryukyu troops in a while, what you need to do is to arrange officials and officials to be responsible for receiving the two counties occupied by the Ryukyus, and how to settle the people." ”

What?

Hearing this, Hua Sheng's face changed.

He never expected that Tang Tingbai, a tyrant, would be so bold that he would dare to destroy 50,000 people with only 1,000 people, could he really do it?

"Your Majesty, the Ryukyu army is strong in combat, although our 1,000 Temple army is not weak in combat, but it is difficult to destroy 50,000 Ryukyu troops, otherwise we will wait for the arrival of the large army." Hua Sheng explained.

Tang Tingbai smiled confidently: "Don't worry, Lord Hua, I have my own clever plan!" ”

At noon that day, Tang Tingbai and a thousand Templar soldiers immediately went to the border of Lingling County after eating and drinking.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the troops arrived.

Three miles away is the main camp of the Ryukyu army.

"Your Majesty, shall we charge now? The brothers' broadswords have long been hungry and thirsty. Xiang Yu's eyes were full of excitement.

And after hearing this, Tang Tingbai smiled: "Don't worry, let's rush over now, it is impossible to completely annihilate the enemy army, if the enemy surrounds us, we can destroy the other party without much effort, what do you say?" ”

This......

Xiang Yu's eyes lit up: "The emperor is sage." ”
