Chapter 390: The Sky Has Fallen
"If you don't wake up again, I might find a few witches to forcibly wake you up!" Wei Jin made a joke, but there was a kind of relief between the words: "During this time, the captives have been attacking the city like crazy, and they have attacked three times in the night! ”
Wei Jin retreated left and right, and when there was no one around, he suddenly whispered to Zheng Pingping: "It's not only the external trouble, but the internal trouble that worries me even more." In the last few days before you woke up, there were already people in the army who wanted to mutiny!"
"What, there is such a thing! Why didn't you say it earlier when I woke up yesterday!" Zheng Pingping's face was ruthless, and he even quickly thought that there were probably some people involved, and suddenly sneered: "I said that after waking up, I always felt that there was a different smell in the barracks, it turned out that someone wanted to make a ghost?" Your Highness, if it is true, we must take action before the situation ferments. ”
"Yesterday there were so many people, it was inconvenient. Wei Jin let out a long breath, and suddenly condensed into bursts of white mist in front of him, and then was dispersed into nothingness by the strong north wind. "I also want to do it immediately, but Mr. Gongsun means to let them ferment. He suspects that there are spies in our army. ”
Zheng Pingphong immediately realized that with Mr. Gongsun here, he must have already known it in his heart, so he didn't have to worry about it.
After the most important thing was said, Wei Jin immediately changed his smile, personally patted the snow on Zheng Pingping's shoulder, and said with a smile: "After what should be said, I have seen enough, let's go, go back to the meeting hall." ”
The two of them were walking down the stairs from the city gate tower, and a hurried footstep came from below, it was a scout captain! There was still a little snow left on his helmet and armor, and the sweat that originally oozes from his forehead was completely frozen into ice by the severe cold, dyeing his entire eyebrows into frost, but his face was extremely ugly, and when he saw Wei Jin and Zheng Pingping, he immediately hugged his fists and said: "Your Highness, Hou Ye, the scout team made a detour to enter the city from the south, but captured a few people, the general is a spy, and General Zhao Kangli is personally interrogating, so he sent a villain to invite His Royal Highness and Hou Ye. ”
"Quick, lead the way!"
Zheng Pingphong and Wei Jin immediately came to their senses, and they got off the city gate tower and mounted their horses, and flew to the military camp west of the city with the scout captain.
............
In the conference hall of the military camp in the west of the city, Zhao Kangli sat in the main seat, and there were two rows of soldiers of the Great Wei Army standing on the left and right. Three men dressed in tattered Central Plains people knelt in the middle of the chamber. They were all disheveled, and they were all wearing shabby armor. Judging from the appearance of the battle armor, it is indeed the standard armor of the Great Wei Army, but the solemnity in Zhao Kangli's eyes has not diminished at all.
The atmosphere in the conference hall was extremely depressed, the three men knelt on the ground tremblingly, not daring to make the slightest movement, Zhao Kangli's eyes were sharp, and a coercion condensed from the battlefield suddenly enveloped the three of them, and he asked sharply: "General Ben is asking you once, where is the person, the department."
What is the team number, who is the general with the troops, quickly recruit from the truth!"
The man kneeling in the center kowtowed to Zhao Kangli three times, and said with a pleading face: "General, we are really from Yongzhou, our home is on the edge of Jinghu Lake in Yongzhou, we all came out of Xiaogu Village, and the general who led the troops was General Xun Ke of the Longqi Army, and the little one didn't lie to you at all!"
"Presumptuous, I still want to mess around! There is no general named Xun Ke in our army! Come on, drag me out and give me thirty canes each, and when His Highness and Hou Ye arrive, I will behead them and sacrifice the flag!"
Zhao Kangli was not angry, and every general of the Great Wei Army accumulated boundless anger towards the captives in his heart during this period of time, and he was suddenly ignited by these three spies. The surrounding soldiers of the Great Wei Army also showed disdainful expressions to them one by one, and six of them walked up with a tiger, each holding one of the arms of the three of them and dragging them out directly!
"General, we are really General Xunke's people, the little ones don't dare to lie to you!"
The three of them struggled, but they were hungry and cold, and they had long lost their strength, so they were dragged out of the conference hall directly.
"Wait. ”
A voice stopped the movements of the six big men, and Zhao Kangli hurriedly walked out of the conference hall when he heard the sound, and it was Wei Jin and Zheng Pingping who arrived.
Zhao Kangli immediately asked people to bring seats, and after Wei Jin and Zheng Pingyi did it, the three of them were also put back into the conference hall.
Looking at the equipment on their bodies, Zheng Pingphong and Wei Jin both frowned, this is indeed the standard battle armor of the Great Wei Army, but this alone is not enough to determine their identity.
Because Zheng Pingphong has woken up, in order not to let the army's morale fluctuate, Wei Jin has begun to plan to re-hand over the military power to Zheng Pingphong. After all, the Great Wei Army in Yunzhou was brought out by Zheng Pingping, the Marquis of Jingping, and Wei Jin refers to the commander in danger, even if he has the identity of the Nine Emperors, it is not right, so as soon as Zheng Pingfei is in a coma for a long time, gossip is indispensable in the army.
Wei Jin's move also won the hearts and minds of the vast majority of generals, so that those rumors were self-defeating, and the army's morale gradually stabilized.
Since Wei Jin has this intention, Zheng Pingphong will naturally not shirk, he is back in charge of Shuaiyin, and these interrogations naturally have to be done in person. He asked in a deep voice with a straight face: "What is your surname, where do you live, and who are the generals, you are recruited from the truth!"
The three of them knew that this was their last straw, and immediately said everything they could say, in addition to what Zheng Pingfei asked, they also deliberately said a lot of things about their hometown, and they were even afraid that others would not believe it, and they also said a few words of local Yongzhou dialect, which made several soldiers of the Great Wei Army around them stunned.
Zheng Pingfei immediately thought about a few soldiers and asked, "Why, can you understand his words?"
"Back to Master Hou, I understand. And they do speak our dialect, which no one else can say when you put it outside
Come. Seeing that it was really their fellow countrymen, these soldiers of the Great Wei Army had mixed emotions for a while. To be able to speak such a hometown vernacular, there must be no doubt that he is his hometown.
But they made spies!
Wei Jin thought about it carefully and shook his head: "As far as I know, there is no such person as Xun Ke in the army, let alone the Longqi army. ”
After Wei Jin finished speaking, he looked at Zheng Pingping, but saw that Zheng Pingping was bowing his head and pondering silently.
"Longqi Army...... Longqi Army...... Longqi Army!"
Zheng Pingfei suddenly raised his head, his eyes were full of incredulity, he asked again in a condensed voice, and his tone still carried an indescribable power oppression: "Are you sure, you are from the Longqi Army!"
"We are the soldiers of the Longqi army, when we were in Fengyang, the whole army was scattered by the captives, and the three of us had to go all the way south, but we encountered this rare snowstorm in a hundred years, and we didn't know where we went for a while, and finally met the general's subordinates. Okay, General Kaig, I'm not a deserter, I'm really broken up and can't find a big army!"
The three men burst into tears, their faces mixed with mud and tears.
Fengyang, that's the westernmost city in Yunzhou, where did they come from?
Zhao Kangli was stunned, he just thought about asking the number and generals of the troops, but he didn't expect to ask about the origin of their army. However, there has never been any army stationed in Fengyang, and the captives don't like to go there to loot, what the hell is going on?
Wei Jin was silent, there was no need for him to say much with Zheng Pingping's presence, and although he had controlled the Langfu military power for a period of time, he did not have the slightest understanding of the layout of the Great Wei army in the entire Yunzhou, so he naturally kept silent so as not to interfere with Zheng Pingping's judgment.
"Come, bring them to my house, and I will interrogate them myself. All things about them are to be gag-gagged, and no one is allowed to say anything!
Zheng Pingphong suddenly roared loudly, and the sound was so loud that everyone looked sideways.
Not only that, Zheng Pingfei also looked at Zhao Kangli solemnly, and ordered word by word: "General Zhao, this matter will be handed over to you to deal with personally, and the violators will not be spared!"
The last four words Zheng Pingyi said gritted his teeth, as if he had a gritted hatred for this matter. Even Zhao Kangli, who has followed Zheng Pinghong for many years, has never seen Hou Ye show such an expression, but he naturally won't ask too much, and immediately took people away, ready to personally supervise the implementation of the gag order.
When everyone left, Wei Jin asked in a low voice, "What the hell is going on." ”
"Your Highness, I'm afraid we're in big trouble. Zheng Pingyi shook his head with a wry smile, and for the first time there was a sense of despair in his eyes:
"The sky in Yunzhou is about to fall. ”
