Ding Qirui led the army, and as soon as he came out of the Ningxia Mansion City, he saw a strange person standing in front of him, dressed in a chivalrous suit, with his back to the rebels, facing him.

This strange position is incomprehensible.

However, Ding Qirui understood his next move, and actually raised a hand, facing his side, and lit the fire rope.

The arquebus burns in every thread, and the sparks can be seen from afar.

Ding Qirui: "That can't be a cannon, right?" ”

Left and right subordinates: "How is it possible?" How is it possible to have a cannon on the arm? Even if it can really be installed, the explosion when the cannon is fired must not shock people to death? ”

As soon as they finished saying this, there was a cannon shot, and the strange man opened fire.

Ding Qirui was taken aback, and all the soldiers under him were taken aback.

Then, I saw that far in front of them, there was a second explosion of "boom", and the cannonball fired by the strange person would explode a second time.

Ding Qirui was stunned and stopped at his feet. He could see that the other party was deliberately close to his army, and he didn't hit his army, and the shot just now was obviously just a threat, but if he continued to lead the army forward, he would really fight against his own army.

Ding Qirui: "What is this person doing?" ”

Wang Ji, the governor of Ningxia, rushed out of the city gate behind him, and shouted urgently: "That's my own person, two days ago, he helped persuade the rebels and let the rebels stop attacking the city." ”

Ding Qirui: "Huh? So what is his purpose in doing this now? ”

Wang Ji: "The official came to ask." ”

He ran to the front, Li Daoxuan's shot just now worked, and Wang Ji didn't dare to move forward too much, so he could only shout from a distance: "Shaoxia, what do you mean by this?" ”

Li Daoxuan opened his mouth and said: "Of course, it is to protect these border troops. ”

Everyone: "! ”

Both sides were slightly taken aback.

Mr. Zhao, who was still scolding Li Daoxuan for deceiving people just now, was also stunned.

Li Daoxuan lowered his left hand, which was still smoking, first turned his head to look at the border soldiers, and then turned his head to face Wang Ji and Ding Qirui: "Don't come over your soldiers!" If you take a step forward, don't blame me for blasting my cannon right in the middle of your crowd. ”

After speaking, he turned his head to Zhao Jiang and waited for the three thousand border troops and said, "Don't move, wait patiently for an hour." ”

Mr. Zhao: "We have been waiting for two days, and we have not waited for the materials you promised, but we have waited for the officers and soldiers. ”

Li Daoxuan: "The supplies are on the way, and there is still an hour to arrive." ”

Mr. Zhao: "How can I trust you again?" ”

Li Daoxuan: "If you don't believe it, you have to believe it, otherwise you have to fight Ding Qirui now." ”

General Zhao: "I lead 3,000 border troops, will I be afraid of him as a mere Ding Qirui?" ”

Li Daoxuan sighed lightly: "Do you really think that the three thousand border troops under your command are willing to follow you against you?" Ding Qirui didn't hold anyone accountable...... So they laid down their weapons and stood aside and watched. ”

Zhao Jiang's face turned white.

The other six generals who rebelled with him also froze at the same time.

I have to say, this is very likely.

Li Daoxuan really didn't fool them, in the past few days, he had already checked the history outside the box, and in the original history, these seven people were really cut down by Ding Qirui.

Li Daoxuan: "You don't really want to do the opposite, otherwise, will you give me these two days?" You are willing to wait because the seven of you don't really want to rebel, you just want to recover the arrears of military salaries from the imperial court. In that case, give me a little more time, and also give yourself a chance. ”

Mr. Zhao and the others were silent.

Li Daoxuan turned to Ding Qirui again: "Lord Ding, what I said to the border army just now was not small, did you hear it?" ”

Ding Qirui: "The official heard it. ”

"It's good to hear you." Li Daoxuan: "Then you also know, they don't really want to rebel, they just want to recover the arrears, although the means are a little too radical, but if they are not too radical, how can they attract the attention of the court?" ”

Ding Qirui was silent.

When the big officials actually know in their hearts, the voices of the bottom, they are usually too lazy to listen, and before the matter is not big, no one cares, and they play ball everywhere.

Who doesn't know about the arrears of the border army?

But when you know it, you know it, and no one wants to take care of it.

If it weren't for the seven border forts making trouble together this time, he Ding Qirui would still not be dispatched.

Otherwise, how could the ancients have invented the phrase "birds that can call have worms to eat"?

Ding Qirui understands everything, but if he understands it, it doesn't mean that he has to listen to you, the face of the big official is very important, how can he find himself unhappy because he doesn't know where to get out of the inexplicable knighthood?

Ding Qirui was silent for a few seconds, then raised his head: "So you can threaten this official?" ”

Li Daoxuan said in a weird manner: "Yo? Put the score of the big official? ”

Ding Qirui: "Equipped with a cannon on your arm, it is unusual, but it can't frighten the official, the official gave an order, thousands of people killed you, how many cannons can you fire?" How many people were killed? ”

Li Daoxuan: "Well, you have a point! Then I don't need a cannon, your soldiers are also hard-working border soldiers, maybe their salaries are also in arrears, but they are more obedient and won't make trouble. If you give an order, they don't want to go up, and if I kill them with a cannon, I feel a little pitiful for them. ”

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers behind Ding Qirui showed strange expressions on their faces. It seems to be a feeling that I want to cry, but I can't cry.

Li Daoxuan: "Then I'll just clean you up." ”

After speaking, Li Daoxuan raised his feet and walked towards Ding Qirui.

Ding Qirui: "Huh? This man came to us alone? ”

Wang Ji was taken aback, and said hurriedly: "This person is extremely strong, or extremely weird, Lord Ding has to be careful." ”

Ding Qirui didn't take it seriously, although it was very weird that there was a cannon on this person's arm, the closer the cannon went, the more unusable it became, right? What's there to be afraid of? If he's going to come and die, he'll just take it down, and then clean up the rebels.

He waved his hand and said, "Take this person down." ”

It's just a matter of dealing with one person, no one pays attention to this matter, only the dozens of personal soldiers around Ding Qirui took a few steps forward, and the thousands of border troops behind him didn't even bother to move.

But on the other side, the people on Mr. Zhao's side suddenly became interested.

Two days ago, the seven generals besieged Li Daoxuan, but they couldn't hurt him in the slightest, and they still remember it vividly. Mr. Zhao and the others were thinking in their hearts: Did he really go to the army single-handedly this time? Look at whether he can deal with Ding Qirui or not, and you will know whether what he said last time was bragging.

Two armies, six or seven thousand people, just watched Li Daoxuan walk towards Ding Qirui step by step, getting closer and closer.
