Yang Feng came to the cell again and looked at a prisoner quietly.
From last night's defeat of the Fourth Army to this morning, in just one night, he came three times.
"Are you really willing to let General Hui go?" The prisoner was young but extremely strong. He looked very tired but still looked at Yangfeng with burning eyes.
"Yes, not only can I release Hui Meng, but I can also release all the prisoners of the 7th Division. Our common enemy is Ding Kui. I don't care about the others."
Yang Feng reached out to untie the prisoner's rope.
The prisoner leaned back, avoiding Yang Feng's hand, and said: "I surrendered you today, how will you face the Jiang family in the future?"
"Hahaha! Jiang Xiong, will the Jiang family recognize you? Just wake up, if they care about you they won't let you live here.
You probably don’t know yet, but Ding Kui’s eldest daughter is named Jiang Jing, and if I guessed correctly she will inherit the title of Duke of Anguo in the future.”
"Wha, what?" Jiang Xiong's whole body was shaking, "How can the Jiang family allow a woman with a foreign surname to inherit the title? My father is the direct grandson of the eldest son of Jiang, and the Jiang family's bloodline has not been cut off!"
"Why not? Ding Kui is half of the Jiang family, and Jiang Jing's mother is also half of the Jiang family. She is no worse than you, and her origins are very clear. There is also a younger brother who may inherit the throne, and his status is far more noble than yours."
Jiang Xiong covered his ears with his hands and shouted: "No!"
Yang Feng waited for him to let go before continuing: "Things can still turn around. It's not impossible for you to return to the Jiang family, or even succeed An Guogong."
"What is that? If you can help me, I will surrender you!" Jiang Xiong grasped the last straw like a drowning man.
"Now the Jiang family still relies on the false king and insists on being an enemy of my king. They will be attacked mercilessly by my king in the future. If the direct descendants of the Jiang family want to survive, it depends on my king's wishes.
You surrender today and offer your loyalty to serve our king. With your ability, you will be able to make great achievements soon.
After my king unifies the Shaodian Kingdom, you can ask the king to pardon the Jiang family, and then the Jiang family will ask you to succeed An Guogong."
Yang Feng clearly saw Jiang Xiong's weaknesses and spoke every word that spoke to Jiang Xiong's heart.
"Okay!" Jiang Xiong stood up suddenly, "I have surrendered to you! I hope you will fulfill your promise and release General Hui and his colleagues."
…
The king issued an edict, and Ding Kui, deputy commander of the Jin General Staff, was appointed as the general to suppress the rebellion. He immediately led troops to attack the rebellion.
In addition, a decree was sent to the Commander-in-Chief's Office. In addition to Shaodian taking over the post of commander-in-chief of the Military Command Department, Jiang Xi was replaced as commander-in-chief of the Military Command Department, and Wang Deng temporarily acted as commander-in-chief of the Staff Department.
The position of commander-in-chief of the General Staff is obviously reserved for Ding Kui. When the counter-rebellion is over, he will step down as general and then legitimately return to the position of General Staff.
Immediately afterwards, news came out from the clan office that Taiwei Shaodianhuang resigned. The king approved and ordered Shaodianrun to take over as Taiwei.
The government gradually returned to its original track, and at least the commander-in-chief and clan offices returned to normal.
"Are you going on an expedition again?"
Shaodian Luan took the armor from the guard and put it on Ding Kui himself.
"Yes." Ding Kui nodded, "After I leave, all the palaces will raise war flags. You can live in the palace."
"No! You are away on an expedition. There is no reason for your mistress to leave home." Shao Dianluan's eyes instantly turned red.
"You have to go see Yuanyuan."
"I can go home after watching Yuanyuan." Shao Dianluan couldn't hold on to the palace.
"Don't worry, I will return victorious soon. Don't you know what a husband is capable of?" Ding Kui turned around and gently hugged his wife.
Shaodian Luan choked and said: "You lied! This time you and the rebel king have officially fallen out. They have occupied half of the kingdom. They have been in rebellion for four years, but have they been calmed down at all? How can you come back so soon! You have the ability.
There are many more powerful than you!"
"Don't think too much about them." Ding Kui pressed the back of his wife's neck and slowly injected fighting energy to help her calm down.
"In recent years, nearly half of our elite troops have been concentrated in Nanma Prefecture for internal fighting, which gave the rebels an opportunity to develop and grow to this point.
The Eighth Army Corps is crossing the river, and the three main forces of our army will gather in Zhuangwang Prefecture in the near future to watch me capture that thief Yangfeng alive."
"Why don't you talk about capturing Shao Dianyong alive? Stop bragging." Shao Dian Luan raised his head and looked at Ding Kui, "Wait until I ask the ancestors for a fight, and we will put down the rebellion with you."
"Nonsense! Be careful, I'll divorce you." Ding Kui was really afraid, Shao Dianluan could do it.
"You are the first one to talk to Princess Fuguo like this." Shao Dianluan held back tears.
After a long time, my husband and I got tired of being together every day, and now we have to separate again.
"There will always be someone to put down the rebellion. In the future, I will have to hand over the complete Shaodian Kingdom to my younger brother. At this time, the descendants of the Protector of the Kingdom must stand up, otherwise I will be sorry for my surname..."
Ding Kui's words can make Shao Dian Luan feel better.
Since the wedding of the two, various wars have broken out frequently. Calculating that he has spent more time in the army than at home, it is unclear how long it will take for the war flag to be lowered at home this time.
He first went to the Military Command Department to receive military orders, and saw both Jiang Xi and Wang Deng there.
"Sir Wang, please go and reorganize the 1st Army Corps and the 10th Army Corps first. I have to make preparations before going there." He has the authority to order the commanders of the five armies to cooperate in countering the rebellion.
"As expected of a newly promoted general in our dynasty, he made a decision that I didn't expect as soon as he took office. I don't think the rebels would have thought of it either." Wang Deng accepted it happily.
He did not ask the reason. Every coach has his own fighting style. As a subordinate, you must have a minimum of awareness and resolutely execute orders.
Ding Kui left the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion and rushed to the Royal Magic Tower.
The magician guarding the portal asked: "You are a military general, why don't you go through the portal of the Magic Association?"
Ding Kui raised his jade sign and said: "Military secret."
The things given by Master Gui are useful. The magician on duty said nothing more, accepted the magic core, and activated the portal.
Ding Kui strode into the portal and arrived at Tianmen Town on the other side. Ruan Xingzhu, Qian You, Lei Feixiang and Dou Xiaoqi were waiting for him.
He waved his hand and ordered: "Let's go to the lobby to release recruitment information."
"Recruiting? Do you want to enter Hengduan Mountain?" Ruan Xingzhu was confused about the situation.
The others are so accustomed to following orders that they don't even bother to ask.
"No, I want to recruit an adventure group to join the counter-rebellion."
"Ah?" The four of them were dumbfounded.
"The adventure group has no discipline at all. It is suitable for fighting alone or in small groups. Even if it is willing to join the National Defense Army, it will not be able to form combat effectiveness in the short term." Lei Feixiang looked at the problem from the perspective of a commander of the National Defense Army.
"The bounty they ask for is much higher than the military salary, and the special operations team cannot afford it." Dou Xiaoqi guessed a little bit of what Ding Kui meant.
"I'm not asking them to fight. They are more suitable than the war group for sneaking into the rear of the rebels, inquiring about information, destroying food routes, assassinating guards, etc. They can be useful in many places." Ding Kui wanted to use mercenaries.
He will not give up the strategy of sneaking behind enemy lines, but when the enemy already knows about him, he will use some unconventional methods.
"Oh, why did you ask me to come? To sneak into enemy lines with you?" Ruan Xingzhu was a little excited, the opportunity to fight side by side with Brother Kui came again.
"Of course not. I am the commander of the First Army and I cannot always act in person. You are a forbidden magician and it is not appropriate to be sneaky. I called you here this time to borrow your influence in Tianmen Town." Of course, Ding Kui will not forget Ruan Xingzhu's presence here. Appeal.
The counterinsurgency general has little weight in the eyes of adventurers, and money alone cannot buy loyalty. The beloved disciple of the honored master can solve many problems.
The most influential person in Tianmen Town is naturally Master Rongci. With just one word from him, he can make anyone unable to survive. In more serious cases, he will also attract fellow followers to hunt him down. Adventurers will not offend Rongci unless they have no choice but to do so.
"I've been away from Tianmen Town for a long time, so I probably won't be able to help. I'd better go back and copy books." Qian You felt a little guilty.
"You are the most important person, you can't leave." Ding Kui went over and put his arms around Qian You's shoulders, "Without you, who would release and accept the tasks?"
Qianyou screamed: "Aren't you pushing me into the fire pit? I can't do such an important task."
He was familiar with Ding Kui's routine, which allowed him to sneak behind enemy lines and contact those adventure groups without any helpers.
Ding Kui took out a piece of wind jade: "Here, here you go, take it to exchange for the teleportation talisman with Master Rong. You have a small target alone, and it is difficult for the enemy to find it. If you encounter a strong enemy, use the teleportation talisman, even for a sixth-level combatant." I can’t keep you.”
Qian You is considered to be the fastest flying magician below the sixth level of combat power. In the northern part of King Zhuzhou, with the teleportation talisman granted by Rong, few people should be able to hunt him down. It is indeed very safe.
"Let me do it. Senior brother has a wife and children at home." Ruan Xingzhu didn't want to see his senior brother in trouble.
"I'm not a person who is afraid of death." Qian You grabbed Feng Yu and said, "One piece may not be enough. I'll give it to you after you use it."
"Repay what you pay, I won't let anything happen to you."
Ding Kui turned to Lei Feixiang and Dou Xiaoqi and said: "You will formulate the bounty, contact information and code words for specific tasks, and assist Qianyou to enter behind enemy lines and carry out operations."
"yes!"
Suddenly, a curse came from upstairs: "You brat! You are fooling my apprentice in my territory. Do you still have me in your eyes? Get up here!"
"Well, you go contact the adventure group." Ding Kui smiled bitterly and walked upstairs.
As soon as he reached the top of the tower, a gust of air bound him to the spot.
Whoosh, whoosh, a blade of wind flew towards me.
Ding Kui raised his hands to protect his face and let the wind blade hit him.
Today is different from the past. As a general, he has special armor, which is more than enough to defend against first-level magic, and at most allows his body to withstand some impact force.
"Junior accepts the punishment, please calm down, master." He knew he couldn't escape, so he might as well continue honestly.
"I'll punish you! This is just an appetizer, there's a big dinner waiting for you." Rongci blew his beard and glared, looking very angry.
"Junior didn't offend you very much, right?" Ding Kui pretended to be aggrieved.
"You haven't offended me too much? Not to mention the adventure of my unlucky apprentice, you have taken away all the adventure group, who will go into the Hengduan Mountains to collect materials? Are there so many merchants in Tianmen Town that the northwest wind is blowing?" Rongci really wants to go to Ding Kui. Put a curse on your head.
"Oh! That's it." Ding Kui finally realized, "The country is in crisis, and things need to be prioritized.
Let’s put the collected materials away first, and I’ll talk to the Magic Association about this; as for the merchants in Tianmen Town, I’ll introduce them to other businesses and compensate for their losses.”
