Chapter 730 730: Serial Fraud (Part 1) [2-in-1]
Such a troop suddenly appeared in the dark night, and everyone was frightened when they saw it. However, when they saw clearly the flags displayed by the team through the flickering light of the fire, their tense nerves relaxed.
The guard pointed in the direction of the flag and shouted: "It's the general!"
If you look closely, you will see that you are indeed one of your own family.
The guard hurriedly climbed down from the sentry tower and handed the news to the lieutenant general who was guarding the city. The lieutenant drank a lot of yellow soup at this time, and the drunkenness crawled on his face. Hearing these words, he reluctantly cheered up and used his martial energy to drive away the excess alcohol.
After leaving the body, my eyes were much clearer.
"The general is back?"
He hurriedly put on his combat boots and armor.
The guards on the city wall briefly confirmed the identity of the soldiers and horses below the city, and ordered the soldiers at the city gate to open the door. A heavy creaking sound was heard, and the city gate opened. The deputy general and others were already waiting under the city cave. When they got closer, they smelled the soldiers.
The smell of blood.
The deputy general asked the leader: "Why do you look like this?"
He knew this person, a brother from the general's hometown. He was not very strong, but he knew how to make things happen, and his skills in flattering people were superb. The general liked to take him with him wherever he went. Because of this, many soldiers looked down on him.
People have no integrity.
"Having been out of the city for half a day, we met Shen Thief and his troops. After a fierce battle, we killed more than a thousand of them and captured two thousand." His armor was covered with blood, and the thick blood on his cheeks had long dried up, and his right arm
He had a bag between his legs and wounds on his body.
The deputy general was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "This is a good thing!"
The general's fellow villager couldn't relax his eyebrows. He sighed: "This is naturally a good thing, but the two sides fought in a hurry, allowing the Shen thief to lead his men to break out. The Shen thief's men are no match for the general. They died and scattered, and the general followed us.
Escort the prisoners back."
The lieutenant casually glanced at the soldiers.
Except for a few whose clothes were relatively clean, most of them were as if they were fished out of a sea of blood. They gathered together, and the bloody aura that hit their faces made even an old man like him want to cover his nose. The battle between the two sides was fierce. How many people had to die?
Does the talent have this scale?
The lieutenant asked: "General, do you have any other orders?"
The fellow general shook his head: "There are no instructions. I just told the general to go back and take a good rest. In three to five days, he will be able to take off the head of the criminal thief and ask for reward from the king."
The deputy general had no doubt that he was there, because he saw several familiar faces in his team, all of whom the general liked. They were all weak in strength, but had a eloquent mouth. He waved for them to come in: "Then
Just enter the city first..."
The fellow general smiled flatteringly and motioned to follow.
The deputy general was in front, and after the war horse had walked a few steps, he followed up and made an insinuation: "Did the general say what to do with the prisoners?"
The fellow general said: "I said I would leave it to you."
The prisoners are not all used as "prey" for hunting. Usually, the generals of the army will be selected first to enrich their own scale. The remaining crooked melons and cracked jujubes are either used as cannon fodder at the bottom or do the most painful and tiring corvee. This
It is a valuable resource.
Whoever chooses first will get the best.
When the deputy general heard this, his face lit up with joy: "Seriously?"
The fellow general nodded: "Of course it is true."
Two thousand prisoners are still two thousand prisoners who can follow Shen Thief on a raid mission. The ratio of elites is definitely not low. Thinking of this, the deputy general thought of something and asked sharply.
"Where's the general?"
The fellow general's face was imperceptibly stiff for a moment.
It's just that it's hard to notice due to the darkness of night.
He replied: "The general led his troops to pursue the traitor Shen."
The deputy general asked again: "How many people did you bring?"
The fellow general said: "Hundreds of people."
The deputy general was worried, as if he wished he could spread his wings and fly to the general's side to advance and retreat with him: "Confused! Why didn't you tell me earlier? How can hundreds of people deal with the remnants of the Shen thief?"
His harsh attitude is just for show, for people to see. When the general comes to know about this, he will naturally think more highly of him.
The fellow general was at a loss for words when a young man standing behind him suddenly spoke up and said proudly: "How can we not do it? The general is so brave that even the thieves must avoid his sharp edges. What's more, the thieves' army is distracted and there are hundreds of them." Enough!"
The lieutenant general didn't like people interrupting, so he walked over. The blood-stained eyebrows were a bit unfamiliar, and he probably hadn't seen them before. Judging from his dress, he was not an important person. He said displeasedly: "Humph, you are here to talk. share?"
The fellow general hurriedly pulled over the deputy general and winked.
The lieutenant asked: "What's the matter? Does this guy have a background?"
The general's fellow countryman said: "He was newly found by the general a while ago. The general is still very enthusiastic about him. Of course you have never seen him."
When the deputy general heard this, he understood instantly. His thick black eyebrows were so thick that they could pinch mosquitoes, and there was contempt in his eyes: "Huh, even so, there is no place for him to interrupt here. What does he know about fighting? The general is brave, but The thief is cunning and cunning."
In the view of the lieutenant, several hundred people were still too few.
However, this happens to be the general's behavior.
He is very happy with his achievements but also headstrong.
While he was talking, all the soldiers and horses entered the city, and the prisoners were imprisoned. It was late at night, and the deputy general had not yet warmed up his buttocks. He had just taken a few sips of yellow soup when the fellow general came with the general's new love. He was now He was in a good mood and was not unhappy about being disturbed while drinking: "What are you doing here?"
The general's fellow countryman looked pale and said: "I just closed my eyes and took a nap, and I dreamed about the general falling into the trap of Shen. It's not just me, even he dreamed about it... This, if this is true... then it should be What should I do..."
The deputy general's right words were: "It is unfounded to worry about the sky."
I couldn't help but beat the drum in my heart.
But the general's fellow countryman didn't think so. He said miserably: "We all rely on the general for our glory today. If the general really has some shortcomings... even death will not be enough to apologize..."
When the deputy general saw him like this, he felt uncertain.
At this time, the young man cupped his fists and said: "The deputy general is willing to lend me five hundred troops and horses. I am willing to lead the troops to help the general."
The lieutenant general was naturally unwilling to borrow troops.
Just when he was about to say that this matter needs long-term consideration, a whistle and arrow suddenly sounded outside the city, and the three lieutenants hurried out. A bloody soldier came from outside the city on a fast horse. The city gate opened a gap that could only accommodate one person and one horse. Then it closed again.
"Report! Three hundred miles urgent!"
The soldier presented a token with both hands.
The three people who saw the token were shocked. Among them, the deputy general had the most intense reaction, because this token was a general's thing that he was very familiar with. The soldiers sent the token and also brought exciting news. The general led his troops to catch up with the remnants of Shen Zei's troops, but Shen Zei's troops faced a desperate situation and made a last-ditch fight. The general could not stop them and needed reinforcements.
The young man hurriedly said: "Let me go!"
However, his request to fight was flatly rejected by the lieutenant general.
The young man said angrily: "Why don't you allow me, kid?"
The lieutenant general looked at the young man's face with a smile, which revealed his handsome and handsome face after a little tidying up. No wonder the general is rare, but rare is rare. How can you entrust such an important matter of reinforcements to a thing? This time is a great achievement.
Chance.
He has been here with the general for several years, and the benefits of his work have become less and less. He rarely has the opportunity to make meritorious deeds, so how can he leave others behind?
The deputy general dismissed the two men with a few words, and made a prompt decision, ordering more than 2,000 people to go out of the city for support. His confidants were still responsible for guarding the city gate. As the city gate creaked open, the deputy general led his troops out of the city, and left with the messenger.
.
The general, his fellow villagers, and the young man watched them off in the city.
When the tail of the reinforcements disappeared, the young man's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at the fellow general with his hands hanging by his side with a half-smile. The fellow general was still smiling on his face, but he was sweating wildly in his heart. He had not forgotten this man.
Without changing his expression, the young man crushed his two unwilling colleagues with his bare hands. When the young man's fingertips were about to touch his neck, he frantically begged for mercy.
It’s not like I didn’t think about betraying someone temporarily along the way.
But he knew that with the young man so close to him, he could send him to Paradise as soon as possible if he showed any signs of strangeness. He was greedy for life and feared death, and did not dare to act rashly. Whatever the young man asked him to say, he would do it obediently.
say what.
result--
The deputy general and more than 2,000 guardsmen were tricked out of the city by the young man.
The remaining soldiers and horses in the city were unable to resist without precautions. The overall situation was decided, and he could only choose to accept his fate.
Obviously, the young man is not satisfied with this.
The young man ordered him to pretend to be the general's order and change the guards in some important places overnight. The streets and government offices were the top priority. The guards did not have much suspicion. The general's reputation for cruelty that was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people made the people below dare not easily
question.
This resulted in a drastic change in the situation before dawn.
The guards on the city wall saw "one of their own" smiling and showing off their weapons. If they resisted, they would kill them on the spot. They were instantly confused. Their minds were filled with questions like "Who am I, where am I, and what am I doing?"
, who is engaging in mutiny???
In the military camp, resistance was quickly suppressed.
Before dawn, Lu Ji kicked off the flag on the city.
"Give it to your grandma and let me go down!"
Concentrate your martial energy on the flagpole in your hand, thrust it in hard, and it's over!
There is a big word "深" written on the flag!
In the morning, the hawkers who came out to do business near the city wall vaguely felt that something was wrong today. After thinking about it for a long time, they couldn't figure it out, so they simply stopped thinking about it. After finishing their work, the hawkers sat down to rest for a while, and when they saw the flags on the city wall, they suddenly thought about it.
Pat the thigh.
"Oops, the flag is different."
A commoner who patronized the stall laughed and cursed: "You are a blind idiot, but you still know the words on the flag?"
Vendor: "I can't read, but the color is different!"
The common people who heard this also raised their heads and looked at the flags on the city wall. Hey, the colors of the flags are indeed different.
But what does this have to do with them?
One person said: "Perhaps I thought the previous flag didn't look good, so I ordered the embroiderer to get a new one. I was really busy."
A group of people were stunned because they did not expect the possibility of the city changing hands.
It’s no wonder that they didn’t expect that there was no movement last night. If the owner really wanted to change their hands, why would they have to deal with it all night? Not only the common people didn’t expect it, but also the officials who came to work in the city government office didn’t expect that they would come as usual this day.
Dianmao is on duty...
What's the difference?
Probably because there are more new faces in the government office.
There was also a young man sitting carelessly on the tiger-skin mat at the top, with a pile of opened letters scattered on the ground. The clerk in charge was so angry that he stepped forward to drag the young man up and shouted angrily: "This is
Can you sit down?"
He was pinned down before he could even touch the boy.
He twisted his hands behind his back, bent over and lowered his head, unable to lift it up.
The young man waved his hand and said, "Let him go."
"only."
The clerk regained his freedom with a confused look on his face, but the residual pain in his arms was not fake. He no longer dared to act arrogantly with the young man. He just stood aside with a puzzled and trembling look on his face. Until the young man asked him: "
Are you familiar with the government office?"
He continued to nod confusedly: "Familiar, familiar."
The young man waved to him: "Take two steps forward."
The little official was timid and did as he was told.
But the young man did not do anything to hurt him. He just asked some questions about the daily operations of the government office in a calm tone. The clerk happened to know all about it and answered them one by one. The young man of unknown origin in front of him frowned and cursed.
"Rubbish".
Then he said: "I understand, you can go down."
The clerk was confused and respectfully excused himself.
It wasn't until he returned to the duty station and saw the different expressions of his colleagues that he was told that the city had been lost at some point and that they had a new leader. His colleagues looked at each other in confusion.
The same idea came to everyone's mind——
When did it happen???
Two flowers bloom, one on each side.
The lieutenant general who led the troops out of the city was ambitious at first. Under the guidance of the messenger, he led the troops at high speed, hurrying and slowly, and finally arrived at the "trumpet". The traces of the fierce battle during the day are still there.
Seeing this made the lieutenant's blood boil.
He asked: "General, are you here to ambush thieves and soldiers?"
The messenger said: "It's a pity that they escaped."
The wind was still mixed with the lingering smell of blood, and the lieutenant general felt vaguely uncomfortable, but this discomfort was nothing compared to the benefits of military success. He urged the messenger to lead the way: "Without further delay, we should meet the general and the others as soon as possible.
Pincer the sinking thief!"
Unexpectedly, the messenger soldier led the way for a while and stopped walking.
Still looking at him, he said, "It's right here."
The deputy general was impatient: "What's here?"
The messenger soldier was sitting on the horse, and the dim shadows around him shrouded him. Along with the cold wind full of bloody smell, it made people feel cold all over. What was even weirder was that the messenger soldier's body gradually drifted with the wind.
Blurred, transparent, dissipated.
There was only one sentence left that made the deputy general suddenly widen his eyes.
He said: "General, it's right here!"
Just six words made the lieutenant shudder.
The alarm in his head suddenly sounded, and he shouted at the top of his lungs: "No - it's a scam! The army should turn around quickly!"
However, they had already been led to the middle of the canyon by the messenger soldier. Whether they were galloping forward or retreating, it would take a certain amount of time. He inadvertently glanced at the top of the valley with his peripheral vision, and the black shadows that looked like human figures made him feel chilled.
half.
ambush!
In the blink of an eye, he thought of a fatal question.
Since this messenger is fake...
Are the fellow generals who returned from the victory also fake?
"Not good!"
The city is lost!
However, this is no longer what he can care about.
Above his head, there was a hail of arrows.
The shouts of killing came from all directions.
They are already the turtles caught in the urn!
(*￣︶￣)
Hehehe, it’s a pity that there is no national anti-fraud APP in this other world.
