Chapter 214 Unexpected (2)
Yao Guangxiao's fingers were about to touch Zhu Yunwen's artery.
Just twist his head slightly, and his head will be twisted like a fruit on the melon seedlings.
Yao Guangxiao's eyes flashed with a hint of fanaticism.
Prince! Suddenly, a shout came from the front.
Yao Guangxiao's fingers suddenly retracted, and Zhu Yunwen also stood up at this time.
The person who came was Zhu Yunwen's personal eunuch, who was the confidant who had been deliberately promoted from a low-level eunuch over the years.
Prince! The eunuch ran to Zhu Yunwen, sweating all over. You asked me to spread the three generals, but they were not in the mansion. They all went to the military camp. Their family said that it was Duke Cao who held a banquet!
What? Zhu Yunwen was shocked.
Yao Guangxiao woke up instantly, and that matter must have been exposed!
The reason why Li Jinglong entered the military camp as soon as he came to Huai'an was to gather military power!
~~~
Drink, drink!
The lights were brightly lit in the military camp. On the wine tables, the local garrison officers in Huai'an were already red with alcohol. They were full of unscrupulous laughter and scolding, and were unrestrained.
Li Jinglong was also half drunk, and his steps became weak when he walked. He held the wine glass and spoke dirty words all over his mouth, but his eyes were particularly bright.
Your Highness ordered me to gather the military power in Huai'an, but I didn't trust the local garrison! He thought to himself that the Huai King case must be handled beautifully, and the city cannot be filled with wind and rain. Controlling these local garrisons is the key!
Brothers! Li Jinglong walked to the banquet with his glasses and shouted to the officers who had already spoken, "I am on the order of the emperor to patrol the military affairs of Huaian." Before coming, someone told me that Huaian was an important town in the canal and a gentle and prosperous town. Those who served in the army just caught a thief at the gate, and might not be able to fight!
But when I saw this, I was all good! Li Jinglong continued to shout loudly, they were all good men running on their arms, and even the men under his command were almost, they were not much different. They stayed on the border for a few years and were all good soldiers even if they saw some blood!
What the master said!
Cao Guogong’s clarification!
Everyone cheered in a mess, and everyone carried the so-called flower sedan chairs. Duke Cao deliberately raised them, so they were naturally happy. In fact, when he heard Duke Cao suddenly arrived, many people were still beating and even a little nervous.
The Huai'an garrison was a small guard with only 1,600 troops in its headquarters. It has endless benefits next to the canal. However, if we go to Taiping today, we will naturally be a little negligent in military affairs. Although there is no such thing as drinking military blood, these military officers do some business in private and receive some black money from passing ships, and they mainly make money.
If Duke Cao really finds out anything, everyone will be in trouble.
But at this moment, seeing Li Jinglong say everything about their good things, I couldn't help but feel nervous. I also thought about whether to relieve Duke Cao's fatigue after the banquet, and when he left, I would give him some local specialties.
Come on, let’s drink! Li Jinglong shouted, today, if you don’t drink a few, it’s not a good thing to lie down!
OK! Everyone raised their glasses warmly. Not to mention anything else, just the toast to them by the Duke of the current dynasty is enough for them to say in the future.
But in the chaotic banquet, there were military officers who sat alone at the table, with different armor on their bodies and different expressions on others, but they only tasted a little.
Why don’t you three drink? Li Jinglong staggered and said loudly, are you looking down on me or thinking that alcohol is not good?
Xiaguan and wait for the emperor dare not! The three of them stood up to salute. Xiaguan and wait for the emperor were the commander of the Huai King Guardian Army. They had a great responsibility and did not dare to drink too much!
Another person spoke, "The King of Huai was extremely strict in control of his subordinates, and he would sing a fuck every morning. If he found that his subordinates were drunk tomorrow, he would not escape military law!"
Please be considerate!
Li Jinglong knew who these three were, Li Siyuan, Zhang Jinzhong, and Yang Da. Strictly speaking, they all belonged to the private officials of King Huai Zhu Yunwen. The vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty had a vassal army that could be mobilized, ranging from tens of thousands to thousands, and belonged to the private army of the vassal kings.
Alas, why are all the girls sing! Li Jinglong smiled and said, "What is the responsibility? Are there Japanese pirates or Tartars in Huai'an? At most, they are some thieves. Can you use them? Let's sit down and drink. The prince will blame him for the blame, and I will take it!
It is really hard for the Xiaguan and others to obey! Yang Da said that when he heard Duke Cao summoned him today, he thought he had military affairs. There were still many things in the military camp of the Xiaguan and others. As he said that, he paused and the Duke Hai Han, and in the future, the Xiaguan and others apologized for the Duke himself!
Suddenly, Li Jinglong pulled his face down.
The three of them stood up and bowed and accused them of guilt. They didn't want to offend Li Jinglong, but they couldn't drink the wine anymore. Besides, they also vaguely felt something unusual. Li Jinglong was a Duke of the country and was ordered by the emperor to inspect military affairs. How could he have had a drink and had fun with these Qiu Bas as soon as he came?
The Duke atones for his sins, and the lower officials will retreat first!
After saying that, the three of them retreated and turned around and left.
Haha! The scene was a little awkward, Li Jinglong laughed and said, "If you don't want to eat the toast, you will be punished for wine!"
~~
But the three of them left the banquet and walked towards the stables.
Li Siyuan looked around and saw that there was no one around and said in a low voice that Duke Cao was here to patrol military affairs, and he would definitely come to my camp tomorrow. Some people who dared not be related to it were hidden first, and those weapons and firearms were also hidden!
Brother, don't worry, I know! The other two said.
So! Li Siyuan walked into the stable, comforted his war horse, and then said, "It's strange, why don't there be a sentry in such a heavy area as the stable!"
Humph, these garrison troops are like this! Yang Da sneered, the donkey dung eggs are bright on the surface, and they are pampered all day long, so where can they fight?
As they were talking, the three of them had their eyes fixed at the same time, and they immediately fought into a triangle and touched their arms around their waists.
The three of them heard some slight sounds.
Did you hear it just now? Li Siyuan said.
Zhang Jinzhong looked at the dark shadow in the distance, and he seemed to hear the sound of a crossbow arrow rising!
Buzz, the sound suddenly came. In the night, it seemed like a meteor suddenly appeared.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of the bowstring ejected was endless. Then, it was puffed, full of sharp blades entering the body.
Countless arrows rushed from all directions, instantly submerging the three of them.
When the clang was about to fall, the long sword in his hand fell to the ground, and the three of them kept their blood in their mouths, staring at the front with a faint breath.
In a shadow, dozens of Jinyiwei, holding military crossbows and wearing flying fish suits, appeared neatly.
You... cough, cough... Yangda wanted to speak, but blood gushed out of his mouth. Then he turned his head unwillingly and was furious on the spot.
The Jinyi Guards surrounded the three of them with military crossbows. The Jinyi Captain, led by them, turned the Xiuchun Knife and pierced three times, one by one in the back of their hearts, and penetrated deeply.
Dead? There is a dark shadow, someone speaks, He Guangyi's voice.
The captain of Jinyi returned the gift and returned to the capital, and died!
If you ask you to drink, you won’t drink, and you will have to come out to die! At this time, in another shadow, one of you walked out slowly with your hands behind your back. It was Duke Cao Li Jinglong.
He Guangyi also appeared slowly, following the dog alongside his legs, and his eyes were bright in the night.
Killing the three of them, there are so many Huai King guards! He Guangyi sighed and said with a smile, "You have to ask Duke Cao and the men under the command of the subordinates, but they are not enough!"
At this moment, Li Jinglong was not drunk at all. He looked back at the people around him. Has my husband's people arrived?
Behind him was Zhou Danian, the commander of Huai'an Guard. Master, your man has already landed on the boat!
Of course, Li Jinglong came prepared. He took the lead, and then two thousand soldiers in the capital followed closely. In order to avoid attracting attention, these soldiers had to quietly enter the city.
Once these soldiers entered the city, Huai'an would be under the control of Li Jinglong.
Go and surround the camp of the Huai King's guardian army! Li Jinglong said to a veteran of the Li family next to him.
The head of the family, all killed? The veteran of the Li family asked.
Li Jinglong frowned and thought deeply, shook his head, and thought about other ways, it would be best to let them not act rashly!
He Guangyi frowned when he heard this, Duke Cao, don’t ruin the big thing!
Alas! Li Jinglong sighed and pointed to the three corpses on the ground. They might be damned, but should those guards die? They are all good men of the Ming Dynasty. Their parents raised them with great difficulty, and they were killed in vain. Old Li couldn't do it! They were surrounded, without the officers, and they could not receive the order from King Huai, and they would not dare to fight against our imperial envoy!
You want to protect them? He Guangyi asked.
It’s not about protecting them, but about pitying them. They are all soldiers like me, Old Li! Li Jinglong’s rare face was solemn and said firmly. It’s okay to die on the border or on the battle formation, but it’s not possible to kill both good and bad! They are also soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. Looking back, I apologize in front of the palace and defeat these guards and send them to the border to serve! As he said, he continued, Your Highness’s kindness, I will definitely understand my thoughts!
He Guangyi looked at him for a long time and suddenly smiled and showed praise. This was the first time that the official saw Duke Cao like this manly! As he said that, he gave a thumbs up, he was so manly!
Li Jinglong also grinned, if you had invited me to your inner house, you would have known that I would have been a man!
He Guangyi's face changed drastically. He held back his anger. Do you say it again?
Chapter completed!
