127 Stabilize the Folding Army
On the ninth day of the eighth month, on the night of the eve of the war, Zhe Keqiu laid an ambush in advance outside the Chinese army camp near Feiyun Fort, and then waited for the battalion commanders and deputy generals to come to participate in tonight's military meeting, and made a showdown with everyone: he wanted to lead 70,000 Zhejia troops to defect to Western Xia, and those who agreed to put bloody handprints on the alliance list, and those who did not agree to take it on the spot......
At eight o'clock in the evening, dozens of generals came to the camp of the Chinese army tent one after another. The captain of the pro-soldier folded so that all the generals could hand over their weapons and enter empty-handed. This is nothing to do again, some generals are about to have a seizure, and they can say: "They are also ordered to do things, just hand them over, and everyone will take them back after the meeting." β
After speaking, together with Zhi Kexing, he first handed over the saber.
Everyone entered the military tent and sat down in turn, and they could sit on the handsome seat with great ambition. Behind him stood two strangers who most of the generals of the Ori family army did not know, and he turned and asked the two to sit down on the empty seats on his left and right.
After everyone is seated, he will begin to speak: Brothers and generals of the Zhejia Army, I want to tell you a good news today: "I want to take everyone to join the Ming Lord and get promoted and make a fortune together." Over the years, we have worked hard for the Great Song Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty has not given us much benefit, and every time the military salary has to be deducted layer by layer, in order to keep everyone's current position, we have to give Tong Guan some benefits every year. What do we want to protect a filthy court like this, it's better to let him perish as soon as possible. Therefore, I decided to take everyone to serve His Majesty the King of Western Xia. The king of Western Xia said that as long as we surrender to the past, we will be rewarded with 1 million yuan in cash immediately, and at the same time, if we make meritorious contributions in this battle, there will be another reward. Now, those who agree come over and put a bloody handprint on their names, and then everyone drinks the blood wine, and we will be the men and horses of the king of Xixia from now on. Who comes first? Big bull, you take the lead. β
After waiting for a while, seeing that no one responded, he could ask for a big bull road that had no courage or strategy.
"You can't be a traitor, when a traitor dies and goes to the ground, the ancestors will scold."
Zhe Ke begged: "Who said that?" Besides, we are not Han people ourselves, so how can we say that we are traitors. β
I saw Zhi Ke and stood up and said: "Zhi Ke begs to turn his back on his ancestors and take refuge in the feud of our Zhen family, do you agree?" β
"We don't agree, our predecessors all died under the swords and arrows of the Tangut people, and we must not enslave the enemy!" Suddenly, all the generals present stood up and shouted loudly, except for the two sons who were begging for help.
The eldest son who could ask for it looked at everyone for a while, and then at his father. The second son, Zhen Yan Heng, couldn't help it, stood up and looked at his father and asked, "Father, what's going on?" You said that you took refuge in Xixia, does grandma know about this? β
"Your grandmother never asks about the army, and of course I won't tell her. Okay, don't get impatient. He waved his hand to signal the second son to sit down, and then said to the crowd: "You don't want to think about it, if you are not completely sure, I will have a showdown with you?" If you don't think about yourself, don't you think about the old people, wives and children who stayed in the village? β
"What? What happened to our mother, wife and children? A general named Zhi Keming asked anxiously, which was also something that other generals wanted to know.
"It's nothing, it's about to be a big battle, I was afraid that the village would not be safe, so I invited them to a safe place. As long as you are obedient and take the Zhejia army to assist the king of Western Xia to defeat the surnamed Zhao, you will naturally meet them. Zhe Keqiu shouted coldly, "Come on, please press the bloody handprints of the generals, whoever does not agree to take it immediately, and the rebels will be killed." β
"Yes!" The captain of the pro-soldier Zhi Dake immediately walked in with two hundred swords and axes.
"What if the old body doesn't agree? Are you going to take it too? From a small tent in the big tent for people to rest, suddenly came out an old woman over seventy years old, with an angry face and a question.
"Mother, why are you here......"
"Grandma'......"
"Grandma'......"
The son and grandson hurriedly ran over and knelt in front of the old woman, the old woman didn't look at the father and son, and with the support of Hu Jinfeng and Duan Sanniang, the two female generals, they went straight to the handsome seat and sat down. The captain of the pro-soldier Zhi Dake was stunned with a knife and axe, and he was in a dilemma.
Duan Sanniang said: "The old lady is here, don't you want to retreat, do you want to make trouble?" β
When the generals saw that the old lady had arrived in person, they were sure to do it. Under the leadership of Zhi Kehe, the generals bowed and worshipped: "The generals will meet the old lady." β
The old lady waved her hand: "Let's get up and sit down, Mr. Wu recites the holy decree." Thy father and thy son came and knelt down to hear the decree. β
The stranger dressed as a scribe who was originally sitting on the left side of Zhe Keqiu stood up and said: "Let me introduce myself first, I am Wu Yong, a strategist under Zhao Qin's account, and in the past two days, together with this General Sun Lisun, I have pretended to be the liaison between the two armies here in Zhe Shuai, and it is Lord Zhao and we have set up a certain plan." In addition, Zhe Shuai said that he would invite the families of the generals to a place to hide, and that place was the Sleepy Dragon Valley. Zhe Shuai and Zhao Xun thought of going together, and he also hid a strange soldier there, all equipped with steel helmets and steel armor, and the weapon was a stainless steel broadsword with iron like mud, so the Xixia people would definitely be defeated. Okay, let's get down to business, and the people will take it! Emperor Shao of the Great Song Dynasty said: You can seek treason with the enemy, the crime is unforgivable, and you will be decided. The rest will not be punished, and the family and the army will be punished, and they will be rewarded for their meritorious deeds and meritorious deeds. Qin this β₯Xuanhe X Autumn β₯"
After the decree was read, the old lady said, "All the generals will sit down and listen to the order, and the rebel son will kneel." Ask the Superintendent to carry out the Holy Command. β
Fang Tianjie came in with two special combat soldiers and escorted Zhe Keqiu out.
The old lady stood up from her position, picked up the sword that symbolized the power of the Zhejia army, and said loudly: "Zhe can be with the general!" β
Zhe Kehe stood up and bowed and said, "The end will be." β
"I now hand over the sword of the commander of the Zhejia army to you on behalf of the ancestors of the Zhe family, and I hope that you will take the Zhejia army to kill the enemy and serve the country, and make new contributions. In the future, the Zhejia army will be headed by you, and Zhe Kexing will be the deputy, how to fight this battle, specifically listen to Mr. Wu's arrangement. Here, catch the sword! β
The old lady solemnly handed over the sword of authority to Zhi Keyou, and then left the big tent of the Chinese army under the escort of the two female generals......
