A cavalry team of three hundred people suddenly rushed to the camp gate.
"Who is coming?"
The soldiers guarding the gate were shocked when they saw this and shouted and asked.
"I came here with the order of the general, and you still won't get out of the way!" Fei Jian, riding on a war horse, shouted coldly, holding the general's token.
Upon hearing this, several soldiers quickly opened the camp door and stepped aside.
Although Wu Sheng did not have absolute control over the Shenwu rear army, the left army, and the right army, all the soldiers of the Shenwu army knew who was their boss.
Not to mention a few small soldiers, even the generals in the army did not dare to openly disobey Wu Sheng's orders. At most, they did so openly and secretly.
Fei Jian ignored the few pawns and rushed directly into the camp on horseback, heading straight for the general's barracks.
Liu Hua's barracks is not a tent, but a very luxurious mansion. Like Shenwu City, the Shenwu Rear Army's garrison is also a city, but it is much smaller than Shenwu City. It is probably like a county seat.
Rumble~~
Three hundred war horses galloped along the street, waking up this small city in an instant.
A large number of soldiers didn't know what was happening, and they followed the sound.
After a while, Fei Jian arrived in front of Liu Hua's mansion.
Several soldiers guarding the gate wanted to come forward to ask, but were driven away by the guards behind him.
"Get out of the way and come here under the orders of the general. Anyone who dares to stand in the way will be killed!"
As soon as these words came out, all the surrounding soldiers fell silent.
No one dared to come forward to ask whether it was true or false, because the power displayed by Feijian and the three hundred cavalry prevented them from questioning it at all.
"Bang the general drum!"
Fei Jian gave an order and strode into the mansion.
Dong dong dong~~~
The roaring drums sounded and spread throughout the camp and city.
Inside the mansion.
When Liu Hua heard the sound of the drum, he was stunned for a moment and then became furious.
"Who is it! Who is beating the drum for no reason!"
He was so angry that he rushed out of the room, just to see who dared to beat the gathering drum without his order.
When he stepped out of the room, he bumped into Fei Jian.
When he saw Fei Jian, he was stunned at first.
He naturally knows Fei Jian, after all, they are both commanders of the Shenwu Army.
Then he showed a kind smile and said: "Why is Brother Fei here? Haha, Brother Fei is here, and you don't tell me in advance so that I can go out of the city to greet you!"
Both of them are Tutong, but their status in the Shenwu Army is still different.
Although he was born into the Liu family, a wealthy family in Kyoto, this place was the territory of the Shenwu Army, so his status was naturally dominated by the power within the Shenwu Army.
Fei Jian was not only the commander-in-chief of the former army, he was also a confidant of Wu Sheng. Compared with him, Liu Hua could not even be considered a stepmother.
Fei Jian glanced at him, and then winked at the bodyguard behind him.
The personal guards behind him immediately dispersed, and in just a moment, they drove away all the soldiers, servants, and maids in the front yard of the mansion.
When Liu Hua saw this, his face became a little ugly, "Brother Fei, what do you mean?"
Fei Jian said calmly: "The general has a military order to convey, and no one else can come near!"
Liu Hua frowned.
Wu Sheng has military orders!
Give them military orders for the rear army!
He had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't dare to question it out loud.
Logically speaking, Wu Sheng wouldn't care about them. As long as they didn't mess around, Wu Sheng wouldn't even bother to look at them.
However, if the Shenwu Army makes a big move and requires the cooperation of their rear troops, Wu Sheng will also give them orders.
He hesitated for a while, then finally nodded and said: "Since it is the general's military order, let's go to the hall and talk about it!"
Fei Jian said: "Wait, wait until the generals arrive."
Liu Hua had no choice but to stand awkwardly and wait.
After about two quarters of an hour, the generals of the Shenwu rear army arrived one after another.
Two quarters of an hour!
If you were in the Chinese army at this speed, you would be beheaded.
However, Feijian also knew the situation of the rear army. These soldiers lacked training on weekdays. Not to mention the soldiers, even the generals were all cunning and cunning.
As the saying goes, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam is crooked. With Liu Hua as the commander-in-chief, there is no need to say much about the generals under his command.
After a commotion, a group of generals entered the main hall.
Fei Jian stood above him, scanning the generals in the hall with cold eyes.
Next to him, Mao Jiang was wearing a black armor, with a cold and handsome look on his slightly older face.
"According to the order of the general, Liu Hua is removed from the post of commander-in-chief, and Mao Jiang is appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Shenwu Rear Army to take charge of all affairs of the Shenwu Rear Army!"
Fei Jian said loudly.
As soon as these words came out, the hall fell silent for an instant.
The silence was as if the air had solidified, and all the generals looked at Fei Jian with incredible eyes.
Liu Hua was also confused!
He was dismissed!
How is it possible?
Why did Wu Sheng remove him from his post?
Although Wu Sheng was the general of the Shenwu Army, the positions of military commanders and major generals in the Shenwu Army were all appointed by the Imperial Court Xifu.
"Why!"
"Fei Jian, what are you talking about?"
Liu Hua asked angrily.
Feijian stared at him and said: "From now on, you are no longer the commander-in-chief of Shenwu Houjun, this one is!"
He pointed to Mao Jiang next to him.
Liu Hua's face turned red, obviously extremely angry.
"This is impossible! How dare the general do this!"
"Is he crazy?"
Fei Jian shook his head, "Of course the general is not crazy, you can leave here now!"
"Me! I don't accept it!" Liu Hua said angrily.
Clang!
As soon as he finished speaking, Fei Jian pulled out the long sword from his waist and pointed it directly at Liu Hua.
The blade of the sword was so cold that Liu Hua's angry expression suddenly froze.
"Aren't you afraid that the soldiers will be dissatisfied?" Liu Hua lowered his voice, but still did not flinch.
Fei Jian said with an indifferent expression: "This is the Shenwu Army! Anyone who dares to be dissatisfied can stand up at any time! As long as they want to die, the general will not mind sending them on their way!"
The cold tone with strong murderous intent made everyone clearly aware of Wu Sheng's determination.
The generals in the hall looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Wu Sheng wants to drive away Liu Hua and control the Shenwu rear army, which is naturally not a good thing for them.
But they didn't dare to stand up against Wu Sheng.
"You!!" Liu Hua was angry, but there was nothing he could do.
With the situation in front of me, no matter how dissatisfied I am, I cannot fight Feijian.
The front yard of the mansion has been controlled by Fei Jian. If the two sides fight, Fei Jian will probably kill him immediately.
"Get him out of here!"
Fei Jian was too lazy to talk nonsense to Liu Hua and directly gave instructions to the guards around him.
"Wait a minute, my family members are still in the house!" Liu Hua said.
"Don't worry, I'll have someone send them out of the city later!" Fei Jian said.
Liu Hua wanted to say something else, but several personal guards had already arrived beside him.
The cultivation level of these personal guards is not high, so it is impossible to force him to leave, but at present, if he continues to stay here, it will only be embarrassing, so it is better to leave first.
Thinking of this, Liu Hua gritted his teeth and glared at Fei Jian. He had already made up his mind to summon the soldiers to kill all these damn bastards when he left the mansion.
As for Wu Sheng!
Damn that general, you really think I'm afraid of him!
Liu Hua was sent out of the mansion by several personal guards while cursing in his heart.
His idea was good, but how could Fei Jian not be on guard against him.
After the generals arrived at the mansion, an infantry force of three thousand people entered the city from outside the city, took over the city gates and walls, and set up checkpoints on several streets in the city.
If this Shenwu rear army is an elite army, it is naturally impossible to allow these soldiers to enter the city.
However, the Shenwu rear army lacked training and loose discipline. In addition, all the generals were in the mansion with no one in charge. There was no one to resist these outside soldiers.
When Liu Hua walked out of his house, he suddenly found that there were thousands of elite soldiers patrolling the streets from the house gate to the city gate. His soldiers had long disappeared.
"hateful!"
He cursed secretly, and at the same time he also knew that there was nothing he could do to save his life, and he could only be expelled from the Shenwu Rear Army.
Just when Liu Hua was kicked out of the Shenwu Rear Army,
Ma Ling, the commander-in-chief of the Shenwu Right Army, also suffered the same fate. He was caught off guard and was dismissed from his position and kicked out of his home base.
However, Ye Xiangzhen, the commander-in-chief of the Shenwu Left Army, experienced something a little different.
Ye Xiangzhen is not from a wealthy family in Kyoto, but from the Ye family, a wealthy family on Qilan Island. He is somewhat different from Liu Hua and Ma Ling.
Although he and Wu Sheng are not of the same mind, Wu Sheng's attitude towards him is better and he rarely goes against his will.
Therefore, Wu Sheng was not as merciful to him as Liu Hua and Ma Ling were.
Before Fei Jian arrived at Shenwu's rear army, Ye Xiangzhen was recruited to Shenwu City by Wu Sheng.
When he came to Shenwu City, Ye Xiangzhen did not doubt what Wu Sheng would do to him, he just thought that Wu Sheng had something to discuss with him.
However, after arriving at Shenwu City, he was directly placed under house arrest by Wu Sheng.
At the same time, Wu Sheng also sent soldiers and Lu Zhiqing to take over the Shenwu Left Army.
Inside the General's Mansion.
Wu Sheng came to the courtyard where Ye Xiangzhen was under house arrest.
Ye Xiangzhen is not a fool like Liu Hua. He can serve as the commander-in-chief of the Shenwu Left Army not because of the Qilan Ye family, but because of his ability.
"Isn't that surprising?"
Wu Sheng and Ye Xiangzhen were sitting at the stone table under the tree in the courtyard.
Ye Xiangzhen, who was dressed in casual clothes, looked very calm, without the slightest hint of anger or unwillingness, and instead had a somewhat free and easy demeanor.
"No, I have long expected such a day!" Ye Xiangzhen chuckled.
Wu Sheng was slightly surprised, "Did you expect that I would break away from the court's control?"
Ye Xiangzhen shook his head slightly and said: "No, I just guessed that the general would take back control of the armies, but I didn't expect that the general would do it so eagerly."
Wu Sheng laughed dumbly.
Taking back control of the armies is what he has always wanted to do.
It's just because he's not ready to break with the court yet, so he's been putting it off until now.
But now that he has joined the Tianxiahui, he doesn't have so many worries.
"So what are you going to do?"
Wu Sheng asked.
Ye Xiangzhen smiled and said: "What else can I do? Return to Qilan Island honestly!"
"Oh, you don't plan to continue working for me?" Wu Sheng said.
"General, you still dare to use me?" Ye Xiangzhen said.
Wu Sheng smiled and said: "Why don't you dare! But I will definitely not let you return to the Zuo Army. You can stay in the Central Army!"
Ye Xiangzhen was thoughtful.
"It seems that the general's ambition is not small!"
Wu Sheng shook his head and said: "Some things are not as you see. You don't understand my choice now, but you will understand in the future!"
Ye Xiangzhen thought he wanted to rebel and become emperor himself, so he kept him.
After all, he and the Qilan Ye family behind him are both worth winning over.
A strange look flashed in Ye Xiangzhen's eyes, "There must be a lot of things happening that I don't know about!"
"Is it related to the Qin family in Fushan Prefecture, or is it related to the Tianxiahui in Yingxian Mountain?"
Wu Sheng asked in surprise: "Why do you say that?"
Ye Xiangzhen smiled and said: "Because in the entire Beiyuan Island, they are the only two forces that can affect the general's decision!"
Wu Sheng was stunned, and then laughed.
"Haha~~, you, you, are so smart!"
"It seems that I have guessed some great secrets!" Ye Xiangzhen also laughed.
Wu Sheng's expression became serious and he said: "Now is not the time to tell you, but I still hope you can stay!"
Ye Xiangzhen also stopped smiling, took a deep breath, and then stood up.
"It is the general's honor to continue serving the general, but the family's choice is not my decision!"
His meaning is very clear, he is willing to stay, but he cannot represent the Qilan Ye family.
Wu Sheng didn't care about the Ye family either. The Ye family was on Qilan Island and couldn't care about the affairs of Beiyuan Island.
The reason why Ye Xiangzhen chose to stay on Beiyuan Island is also very simple. He neither wants to return to Qilan Island nor to Kyoto.
Although Qilan Island is one of the four major islands of the Luofu Dynasty, its strength is the weakest. There is no point in him going back.
As for Kyoto, he didn't want to be ordered around by the wealthy families in Kyoto. It would be better to go back to Qilan Island than to stay in Beiyuan Island.
