Chapter 275: Straw
An Huai looked at Lang Jiang who fell to the ground, and the red blood was reflected in his pupils, destroying the last trace of hesitation in his heart.
They ordered someone to clean up the corpse, and they were anxious about the remaining generals and officials in Xizhou, "The eldest princess plotted a great rebellion, united with Xirong, and became independent, and now she has sent people to raid the grain road, intending to trap Xu Dashuai and others in the realm of trapped beasts. Under my order, 1,000 people rushed to the aid of the grain road, and the other 3,000 people followed me to support Wangling Pass without delay."
In Xizhou, all of Li Shengxi's henchmen left, and most of the rest were An Huai's henchmen.
"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has always been loyal to the monarch and the country, is there a misunderstanding in this matter?" There is a rebuttal from Wenchen.
An Huai just glanced at him, and the next moment, he stabbed his body with a long knife, killing him with one blow, and everyone was shocked.
"The eldest princess conspired against her, and the evidence is ironclad. If there is any doubt, it will be a fellow party and should be punished." An Huai's wrist is iron-blooded, and the generals are his henchmen, and they all surrender.
If a civil servant refutes, he is no match for him. In desperation, I had to obey the order.
Vice General Cao and Deputy General Yu galloped all the way, but Deputy General Yu suddenly stopped from his horse, he tightened the reins, and looked back into the distance.
The forest moves and the birds fly, and the killing spirit is endless.
Vice General Cao looked puzzled, "Deputy General Yu ......"
"It seems that the person who came was not good. And I am afraid that the situation is scorching, and Vice General Yang cannot be defeated. Vice General Cao, you go first, and I'll go to help."
Vice Admiral Cao didn't hesitate, "Okay."
"But before that, we need to ask Vice General Cao for two things to prevent future troubles."
"What's that?"
"Your head on your neck, and this cart full of grain and grass." Deputy General Yu's face was gloomy, and the next moment, he waved the halberd in his hand and headed towards Vice General Cao.
Vice General Cao was shocked, but he was not as panicked as others imagined, and he was in a hurry. He leaned back and ducked.
Vice General Yu raised his eyebrows, but he was not a vegetarian either, and in a moment, the two were entangled. And the soldiers behind him were also divided into two groups of men and horses, fighting each other.
The team of men and horses brought by the deputy general took out saltpeter and threw it directly on the grain and grass. Soon, a fire broke out.
"What are you going to do, a rebel and a thief?" Vice Admiral Cao was incredulous.
Deputy General Yu was proud, "Vice General Cao, you and I have known each other for a long time, you should know that those who know the times are Junjie, without grain and grass, Xu Huanzhi will be defeated, and the eldest princess is deeply trapped in the grain road, with the little men and horses in Wangling Pass, she will definitely not be able to stop the Xirong people." If you had been caught sooner, you might have lived."
"The villain has a will. Thou hast conspired with the Sijonites to be no different from beasts. Cao Mou has been loyal all his life, even if he is only a deputy general, he is absolutely unwilling to defect to the enemy and commit treason." After Vice General Cao finished speaking, the spear swept towards Vice General Yu.
"I think you're stubborn!" Deputy General Yu resisted with a halberd, but because he couldn't dodge, he almost fell off his horse, and his halberd poked at the nearest grain and grass.
The grain and grass were not burned, and he pulled out the halberd, but he saw a pile of straw being brought out by him.
Admiral Yu was incredulous, "Straw? How could it be a straw? You—you stole food and grass?"
"It's not me." Deputy General Cao Yang Mei smiled, "Your Highness is wise and martial, and you rebels and thieves have long been guarded against, guessing that you dogs are jumping off the wall in a hurry, how dare you use real grain and grass."
"Where is the real grain and grass? When was it replaced?" Adjutant General Yu asked.
"Nature is about going where you need to be. You're talking a lot."
The next moment, Vice General Cao stopped talking nonsense with him, and fought with Vice General Yu again.
Vice General Yu frowned, he didn't want to tremble with Vice General Cao again, there was already a change here, and it would definitely be no good to fight again. He had to hurry back and send a message to the general.
As soon as the lieutenant general Yu blocked the halberd, he turned the horse's head and wanted to leave, but Deputy General Cao did not chase, but ordered someone to extinguish the fire.
Unexpectedly, he didn't take a few steps before he saw a team of people waiting for him from a distance.
"Why are you here?" Adjutant Yu was incredulous.
Rong Zhi sat on the horse, even if he was dressed in military uniform
It's a scholar. Vice General Yu knew Rong Zhi, in other words, with his face and Li Shengxi's favoritism, General Jinzhong, there was no one who didn't know him.
"Naturally, His Highness asked me to kill the rebellious ministers and thieves."
"A scholar, I'm afraid you won't make it." After Deputy General Yu finished speaking, he led the army forward and fought with him, but soon, he fell behind.
Deputy General Yu was incredulous, but in the next moment, he was picked off his horse and captured by Rong Zhisheng.
"How could it be ......?"
Rong Zhi glanced at him lightly, and said in a loud voice behind his ear: "An Huai rebelled, the soldiers were deceived by it, Your Highness is benevolent, I give the order, and those who are captured now can live—"
The rebels are gone, and they are indeed deceived by others, and later rebelled, also because there is no way to retreat, and now that Rong Zhi has given an order, since there is a way to retreat, why should they resist stubbornly and be rebellious ministers and thieves?
Moreover, whether it is the soldiers in Jinzhong or the people, they have a natural reverence for Li Sheng's attack, and they have doubts about Li Sheng's attack and rebellion in their hearts. Moreover, Vice General Cao accused Deputy General Yu of rebellion, and Deputy General Yu never objected. Soon, the rebellion in the rear was put down.
Vice General Cao looked at Rong Zhi, who was captured by the deputy general, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"The last general thought that His Royal Highness would send the girl Liujin over, but he didn't think it was Rong Changshi. Although he is rebellious, he is really good at it."
If he came here and captured by the lieutenant general, he would not be too surprised. Although Liujin is delicate and weak, when it comes to martial arts, he is not as good as Wu Yang and others. But he was also on the battlefield. If she hadn't stayed in the princess's mansion wholeheartedly, she wouldn't have been under him with her military exploits.
"If you stay here and leave, when General Ke does not arrive, who will preside over the overall situation at Wangling Pass?" Rong Zhi didn't care about the vague targeting in Vice General Cao's words.
Staying here is not capable of not outstanding, of course, for herself. Although the medical skills are not as good as Yingxiao, the martial arts do not have to be Wu Yang, and the more astute and inferior the Mingyun. But it is undeniable that she is very good in every category, but she is not outstanding.
Although he prides himself on being talented and plays with people's hearts, his reputation is really poor and he has no power. If he stays at Wangling Pass, he will come to the grain road to help. The grain road is indeed stable, but Wangling Pass is only afraid that it will be very bad.
Staying in the present is different, she has prestige and the right to speak, she is long-sleeved and good at dancing, exquisite, even if she does not have an actual official position, but she can cope with peace for a while.
"Actually, I'm curious, how did Your Highness send hundreds of people to help you escort grain and grass without alarming others?" Vice General Cao asked suspiciously.
General Ke was responsible for escorting the grain and grass, but long before that, it had already been replaced by General Ke's straw.
