Volume 3 Fighting for the Country Chapter 104 Secret War
Everyone thought that this was the end of today, but who knew that the eldest prince on the stage said.
"Pei Xin, Datu, you two battalions have surrounded the school field, now count the number of people for me! Write down those who didn't arrive! ”
"The last general commands!" The two of them took their two battalions of men and horses to immediately surround the school grounds, and began to count the number of people according to the book they wanted from Ma Hemosha!
Half an hour later, Pei Xin came to report with a hoarse voice, "Report to the general, there are two partial generals and one deputy general who are absent, and another 180 soldiers have not arrived!" ”
"Can I write down my name?" Chen Zuyi said expressionlessly.
"The last general is on the record!"
Chen Zuyi turned his head and looked at Ma Hemosha, "General Zhennan, does he know who hasn't arrived, and where have they gone?" He played this hand skillfully, first counted without notifying who was absent, and asked directly to the head of the chief officer.
"It's... This..."As soon as Ma Hemosha heard Pei Xin's report, he looked carefully at the generals in the audience, and found that it was his cousin Ma Hamad who was absent, and suddenly felt bad, "Oh, the last general remembered, this morning the adjutant Ma Hamad asked me for orders to patrol, and I casually agreed, they should go to patrol!" ”
"Oh? In this case, it seems that the king is wrong to blame them? Where did they patrol the defense? Chen Zuyi looked at Ma Hemosha with a smile in his eyes.
"This... It was the last general's dereliction of duty that he forgot to ask! Ma Hemosha is also an old fritter, he knows that the more specific he says, the more horse feet will be exposed, so he simply blames himself for all the crimes, anyway, the eldest prince will not be able to kill himself for a while.
"Songhai, you send someone to wait at the door, I want to see what kind of defense this Mahamad patrol! Hum! Disband! After Chen Zuyi finished speaking, he got down from the high platform and walked to the big tent in the camp, which was originally the office of Mahe Mosha, but now it belongs to him, where to go to Yu Mahe Mosha to work, there is no need to worry about it, he basically has no official office now!
Although Ma Hemosha did not lead the troops very well, the big tent was very neatly organized, and the official documents and the roster of guards in each city were very neatly placed. This also saved Chen Zuyi a lot of trouble, and he carefully checked the recent military documents and the rosters of various places, so as to have a general understanding of the current situation of the cities on the southern front.
A total of 85,000 soldiers were stationed on the entire southern front, stationed in the three medium-sized cities in front and two fortresses, namely Juxi City, Luo Jing City, and Nabuwa City, and the two fortresses were Wanga Fortress and Ibana Fortress. It was these five strategic points that held back the Javanese army from the south.
The location of the camp on the southern front was in the middle of the rear of these five fortresses, two hundred miles from the farthest fortress of Wangka on the west coast, one hundred and fifty miles from the city of Nabuwa on the edge of the Iban Mountains in the east, and seventy miles from the city of Juxi. This large camp is very level, if it is put into the city of Shaliman, then the distance from the five places will be fifty miles away, for the rapidly changing battlefield, time is life and victory.
After Chen Zuyi understood the current situation, his dislike for Ma He Mosha was reduced a lot. Although he is sure that he is the person of the other two princes, this person does have a certain amount of real ability, and I don't know if he can win it over. Just as he was pondering, Songhai's voice sounded outside.
"Report! Mahmad has been arrested by the last general, and after interrogation, he took people to visit the green house in Shaliman City! ”
"Bring the people up, and call the Mahemosha." Chen Zuyi thought about it for a while and had an idea in his heart.
After a while, a fat man with a high finger and two people who were dressed as generals were pressed up, and there was a strong smell of alcohol on their bodies. Ma Hemosha then entered the big tent as well, and when he saw the three of them, his face turned a little blue with anger. His cousin relied on him as the commander-in-chief, retreated during the war, and walked around the Qinglou to play with women in his spare time, never saving him his worries.
"General Zhennan, what kind of crime is it to leave the camp without permission?" Chen Zuyi's face was expressionless, and he didn't raise his head, just looked at the roll of the military bulletin in his hand.
"Equivalent to a deserter, slash!"
That Mahammad's expression was indifferent, but when he heard his cousin say this, he felt that something was wrong, and his face turned pale, "Cousin... Don't be scared, cousin... Scare me, isn't it okay if I used to go out of camp a lot? ”
"Shut up! Are you a cat that drinks a lot of urine?! ”
Ma Hemosha's temples were bruised, he was really angry and anxious, regretting that he had brought this fool into the barracks in the first place, he was still sure that he would not die, but this thing had to go to hell!
"Oh? General Zhennan really loves soldiers like a son! Isn't it too spoiled? Chen Zuyi raised his head with a sneer on his face, and that smile was as cold as a knife!
"The last general is guilty, please punish His Highness!" He can't keep this cousin who is looking for his own death, so he can only take care of himself first.
"Humph! Come! Drag these three people out and cut them down, and hang their heads in the center of the school yard for three days to pay respect! Chen Zuyi's words were even more with cold killing intent!
Mahmad was immediately frightened and urinated, and his lips trembled and he looked at Mahe Mosha, "Table... Cousin, help me! I won't dare next time! ”
Ma Hemosha saw that his cousin was about to be dragged out of the big tent, and shouted, "Slow! Then he turned to look at Chen Zuyi, his eyes were red, as if he wanted to choose someone to eat, and said word by word: "Your Highness, you just arrived at the camp today and killed the senior generals, for fear that the soldiers below will not be convinced!" Ten thousand cause mutiny is not good! ”
"Can I understand that you are threatening me?" Chen Zuyi had frost on his face, and he also gritted his teeth.
Ma Hemosha suddenly knelt down and kowtowed heavily, "The last general doesn't dare, but I just ask Your Highness to spare Mahamad this time for the sake of the last general guarding this southern front for more than a year, and there is no merit and hard work." I will get rid of him and drive him home to farm!" ”
Facing Ma Hemosha, who suddenly relented and begged for mercy, Chen Zuyi felt very interesting. This guy can stretch and bend, and he is also good at arranging troops, and he wants to take him under his command even more.
"Looks like we need to have an open and honest conversation, what do you say?"
Ma Hemosha knew that this was the eldest prince who wanted to change his vote for him, but if he didn't agree, I was afraid that today would be the death date of him and his cousin. If you agree, not only will your head be saved, but you will also have the possibility of prosperity and wealth in the future. This thought just turned in his heart, and he immediately nodded:
"Good! Everything is arranged by His Highness! ”
"Hah! Ha! Ha! Chen Zuyi looked at Ma Hemosha and laughed, his face changed to a warm smile of spring, "Songhai, take them down for the time being, well, change our cousin's clothes!" ”
After Songhai escorted Mahamad and the others out, no one knew what the eldest prince and Mahemosha talked about in the big tent. Anyway, an hour later, Ma Hemosha walked out of the big tent angrily. And the eldest prince was also unhappy, and afterwards Song Hai inadvertently mentioned that the eldest prince was threatened by someone. He didn't mention it again after only half of the words, but these words still let people with a heart hear them.
As for Ma Hemosha's cousin and the two partial generals, they were finally released by the eldest prince. For this reason, Ma Hemosha had to proudly say to his subordinates that this eldest prince was a reckless man, and he would be honest if he was a little frightened.
Seven days later, the fifth prince who was far away in the capital suddenly received a secret letter, and the fifth prince's face changed after seeing it, and he hurriedly summoned the military department to discuss it.
"Your Highness, I don't know what's the matter with such an urgent invitation to the old minister?" Hou Shangshu has been urged to sweat.
"Lord Hou, look at it, this is a secret letter from the Zhennan general Ma He Mosha, the boss is not honest as soon as he arrives on the southern front!" Oude handed the secret letter to Hou Jibing.
After a while, Hou Jibing read the secret letter, and his face kept changing, "It seems that Urida Mara, the general of Juxi City, is indeed going to be replaced!" It's just that how could this idiot be bought so easily by the eldest prince? Didn't he use it before, your personal bodyguard? ”
"I don't know! Maybe people will change! But it's not unexpected, yesterday I received a report from the secret agent of Juxi City, the second day after the boss arrived at the camp, he went to Juxi City to have a secret conversation in the name of banqueting Urida Mara, and the secret agent could not know the content of their conversation. Oude thought for a moment before he continued: "Do you say that the rabble desert sand is reliable? The problem is definitely between these two people! ”
"Ma Hemosha will definitely not have a problem, he was pulled up by me and has been with me for ten years! And a few days ago, I received a secret report from the camp on the southern front that Ma Hemosha gave His Royal Highness a dismissal, and later because his cousin violated military regulations, he was tough with His Royal Highness again! If he is not trustworthy, then there is no one in the world who can be trusted! Hou Jibing said firmly.
"Betrayers must not be spared! Then replace Urida Mara with people and let Mahemo kill him in the sands! As for his family in the capital, I will let people dispose of it! The fifth prince Oude's eyes showed a cold light.
"If our military department intervenes now, we are afraid that we will be bitten back by the eldest prince! After all, it is now his military affairs on the southern front of the governor! Hou Jibing said hesitantly.
"Well, it's a bit troublesome, but from this letter and the letter from the secret agents in the camp, it seems that the boss hasn't been able to start his fists and kicks yet, so we have to do it as soon as possible, and we can't let him have a chance!"
"Good! Tomorrow, I will ask Your Majesty to say that I have found evidence of the betrayal of the enemy by the defender of Juxi City, Urida Mala, and I want the Zhennan general Ma He Mosha to urgently lead troops to arrest him! As long as we report it later in the process of arrest, because Urida Mala led the troops to resist, he was killed on the spot! ”
"Good! That's it! In addition, the Mahamad of Mahemosha's table north was transferred to Juxi City as the general of the city guard, so it would be foolproof! The fifth prince breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't expect that he would easily defuse the boss's attack, Jiang is still old and spicy!
"The old minister is going back to writing the recital!" Hou Jibing and the fifth prince hurriedly parted again.
"Someone!" After the fifth prince waited for Ji Bing to leave, he called his personal guard, whispered a few words, and the guard hurriedly left the fifth prince's mansion.
The next day, Hou Jibing, the secretary of the military department, handed a letter directly to Manaja Gana, and when he read it, he was furious, and immediately agreed to Hou Jibing's request, and immediately dispatched the Janissaries to raid Urida Mara's home, and also searched for his previous correspondence with Javanese high-ranking officials in Urida Mara's home. With such conclusive evidence, his family was directly exterminated!
