The Liao army entered the city and rushed into Xianghe City with great momentum.
As soon as he entered the city gate, Shi Dayong suddenly reined in his horse and stood still, giving orders to Jiang Wanli, Cao Bianjiao and other subordinates who were about to rush into the city:
"Xiao Cao, please immediately bring someone to seal the city gate for me. From now on, only people in Xianghe County are allowed to enter, but no one is allowed to leave! If someone slips out of the city, I will only ask you!"
"Wan Li, you, Shao Wu, and Dashan lead the troops into the city. If you see anyone from the Beijing camp, no matter who they are, take them for me!"
"Yes, General!"[
Jiang Wanli responded without hesitation. Suddenly something occurred to him and he asked Shi Dayong: "General, what should I do if the people in the capital camp resist?"
Shi Dayong waved his hand impatiently: "Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed on the spot!"
"ah?!"
After everyone heard Shi Dayong's order, they were all stunned. They only thought that Shi Dayong wanted them to go to the city just to teach the Beijing camp a lesson. Who knew that he was really going to be cruel to the Beijing camp!
Zhao Wenqi, who was running here, heard Shi Dayong's military order. His face turned green with shock and his body was shaking. The Liao army was really going to kill people!
Immediately, I was shocked again. Just now, General Na Shi said that he would block the city gate and prevent people from leaving the city. What was he going to do? If the Liao army had other ideas, wouldn’t we, the people of Xianghe, have become turtles in a urn and be slaughtered by others?
Already?
Standing there blankly, looking at the back of Shi Dayong on the horse with doubt on his face, he was frightened and somehow suddenly thought of the corpses all over the city two years ago.
However, Cao Bianjiao felt that Shi Dayong's military order was too heavy. His Cao family had been loyal to the court for generations and had never done anything to antagonize friendly forces. Wu Xiang and Zu Dashou were killed outside Jinzhou City for a reason, and the two of them escaped before the battle.
, anyone who is ungrateful and surrenders to the Eastern captives should be killed. Therefore, he has no psychological burden when carrying out Shi Dayong's orders. However, the Beijing camp in the city is not a great evil. Guo Yi only said that they extort the people in the city, buy and sell by force, and eat and drink for free.
, It’s just teasing a good woman. Although it is sinful, it will never lead to death.
Who among these soldiers is not angry? Beijing camp always thinks highly of itself, so how could they be willing to surrender? If they really killed those soldiers of Beijing camp who resisted arrest, how would they explain to the court afterwards?
Thinking of this, Cao Bianjiao tactfully advised: "General, the Beijing camp is the military force of the imperial court after all. If we are really cruel, what if the imperial court blames us?" He did not say the rest of the words clearly.
Shi Dayong said unconcernedly: "Don't worry, Xiao Cao. You just carry out the orders. If the sky falls, I will shoulder the responsibility. If the imperial court really wants to blame me, I will be dealt with by the imperial court. I will never implicate you."
.”
"General, that's not what Xiao Cao meant."
Seeing that Shi Dayong was resolute and refused to listen to his advice, Cao Bianjiao couldn't resist, so he had to say: "But we only have 700 people. We have to raid the capital camp and seal the city gate, so we are afraid of insufficient manpower."
"Um."
Shi Dayong nodded. He considered this issue as soon as he stepped into Xianghe County. He raised his hand with a riding crop and pointed at the city and ordered:
"Xiao Cao led the people to seal the four gates for me, and the others searched from west to east, street by street. Search one place, clear one place, and go slowly. In this way, there will be no problem in terms of manpower."
Jiang Wanli, Li Dashan and the others nodded and had no objections. However, after much thought, Cao Bianjiao still felt that something was wrong with this matter. He wanted to persuade Shi Dayong to slightly change the military order. If the people in the Beijing camp resisted the arrest, they would arrest them by force.
There is no need to use a knife to see blood, which will damage the harmony between the two families and make it difficult to explain to the court.
But just as he was about to speak, he saw Shi Dayong glare at him with dissatisfaction. He was startled for a moment, and immediately shouted: "General, obey the order!" After saying that, he pulled the saddle and rushed forward at the head of the horse.
"Wolf Cavalry, follow me!"[
Two hundred cavalrymen rushed over like arrows with Cao Bianjiao. Suddenly, the sound of "ta tower" horse hoofs sounded throughout Xianghe City.
Jiang Wanli, Shao Wu, and Li Dashan also hurriedly led the 500 infantry soldiers to follow Shi Dayong's instructions and began to search for the people in the Beijing camp street by street.
Shi Dayong led his own soldiers and did not move at the gate of the city.
Seeing Shi Dayong still reining in his horse and standing there, looking towards the city without knowing what he was looking at, Zhao Wenqi hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "General Shi, I forgive you for being stupid. I remember that the general told me before that I can
If you don't disturb the place, you won't disturb it. But now the general is leading his troops to wreak havoc in Xianghe County, disturbing the people. What the general has done is really unbelievable in the eyes of the subordinates."
Before Zhao Wenqi could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shi Dayong, who immediately refuted him: "Is letting the Beijing camp oppress the people the same as what Guixian calls peace of mind?"
"This" Zhao Wenqi blushed when he was told that, and he watched helplessly as the Jingying camp was misbehaving in the city. It was his Xianghe County ability, but also his weakness. Now that Shi Dayong had made it clear, he was naturally ashamed.
No matter what Zhao Wenqi thought, Shi Dayong just snorted slightly on his horse and said to him very dissatisfied: "This general is just letting out a bad breath for the people of your county. Your county is not grateful to me, but instead accuses me of disturbing the place with troops."
, let me ask, how can I convince this general!"
Zhao Wenqi was speechless.
Seeing this, Shi Dayong shook his head and said: "Mr. Zhao, please rest assured. My general has strict military discipline and will definitely not scare the people. As soon as the troops from the Beijing camp are driven out of the city, I will immediately lead my troops to withdraw from the city. Then your county will return.
Just come out and appease the people."
After hearing this, Zhao Wenqi sighed secretly in his heart, wondering whether he should believe what General Shi said.
Shi Dayong was too lazy to pay attention to Xianghe County. He crossed his legs and walked slowly towards the city with his soldiers.
Guo Yi looked back and saw that Xianghe County was still standing there, so he galloped forward a few steps, rushed to Shi Dayong's side, and then whispered: "General, is this possible? What if?
If the Beijing camp really resists and starts a fight with our people, then wouldn’t we be fighting with friendly forces?"
"Fire Union?"
After hearing this, Shi Dayong laughed and said disdainfully: "The Beijing camp is just helping the dandies, so how dare you dare to fight with my Liao army? I'll scare them like this to ensure that they stay honest!"
Guo Yi was still a little worried and said: "The rabbit bites people when it is anxious. We will kill people without saying a word. What if the people in the Beijing camp are cornered and a mutiny is triggered?"
"If they really dare to fight back, I will really admire them. I'm afraid they don't dare. It's a big joke that a bunch of cowardly people dare to mutiny!"
The virtues of the Beijing camp and the memory of the owner of the body told Shi Dayong completely. He was either a businessman in Beijing or a soldier who took people's money as a substitute. With these people, it was hard to say whether they could kill people with a knife, let alone dare to.
They fought with the Bian army. Therefore, Shi Dayong had enough confidence. He believed that the losers in Jingying had a good vision. Even if they were given ten more courages, they would not dare to fight against his own soldiers.
