Although there was singing and dancing on the painting boat, the atmosphere above the banquet seemed particularly solemn and depressing.
The three generals led their troops to Jinling City in order to seize the credit for defeating the Nine Mountain King Li Liangjin, but they happened to meet Li Xiuyuan, a young man who was rampant in the officialdom.
It seemed to have no effect on him at all.
The official positions were so different that Li Xiuyuan even dared to come to investigate.
How can this prevent these three generals from being angry?
"Li Xiuyuan, pay attention to the tone of your words. Is it difficult for me, the commander-in-chief, to ask this little guerrilla general like you? If you know the truth, apologize and go back immediately. If you don't, I will deal with you today."
Sun Zongbingdao from Yangzhou.
Li Xiuyuan glanced at him, then at the former Commander Qian, and then said: "Commanders, if you want to share my credit, it doesn't matter, it's just a matter of competing for credit. Everyone depends on their ability. If you can compete
I have nothing to say about winning. This has been common in official circles since ancient times.
It's nothing, it's just that the three generals led the troops to destroy the stability of Jinling City and injured the soldiers under my command, but this account has to be settled."
"So, for the sake of just a few soldiers, General Li came to investigate?" General Qian said with a cold face.
"Yes, this is the main reason why I came here this time."
Li Xiuyuan said: "Another reason is to ask the three general soldiers to withdraw from Jinling City. In addition, I also heard that the three general soldiers looted the money warehouse and grain warehouse in the city, and I also asked the three general soldiers to order their return.
, as long as the three generals can do it, you and I will not interfere with each other today."
"Bold, Li Xiuyuan, how dare you talk to me like this? I can see that you are a tough guy. If you refuse to drink a toast, you will be punished with a fine drink. Come on~!"
Mr. Qian slammed the wine table, causing the wine glass to fall down and the dishes to jump. Then he shouted loudly and summoned the soldiers on the painting boat.
"Sir, my subordinate is here."
Immediately, the door opened, and a dozen elite soldiers rushed in, completely surrounding the small shipyard.
Li Xiuyuan glanced at it, but a meaningful smile appeared on his face: "Since the Commander-in-Chief wants to offer me this cup of fine wine, then I will drink it, but after this glass of wine, the three Commander-in-Chief and I will fight to the death.
, I hope the three generals will not regret it by then."
After saying that, he raised the glass of wine that he had placed on the table, glanced at the three generals again, then raised his neck and drank it all in one gulp.
"Okay, okay, what a madman, what a rebellious and arrogant person. Only after he has achieved such military exploits, even I and the commander-in-chief will not pay attention to him. If I win a few more battles for you, I am afraid that even Your Majesty will not be able to win.
I can't cure you anymore, come here and capture this person alive." Mr. Qian laughed angrily when he saw Li Xiuyuan.
I can't stand this attitude anymore.
Next to them, Mr. Sun from Yangzhou and Mr. Zhao from Hunan remained calm.
Let Mr. Qian take care of Li Xiuyuan's thorn in the side. If there is any problem, he and others can evacuate in time.
"Take me? Just because you are a general soldier with no strength? You can't even slap the table. I really don't know what qualifications you have to be a general soldier." Li Xiuyuan's eyes flashed, and he slammed the table and stood.
Got up.
"Boom~!"
In an instant, the thick wooden table exploded with his slap, and pieces of wood flew out.
"My lord, be careful."
Seeing this, the other soldiers' expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly stepped forward to protect their respective commanders.
Master?
The three commander-in-chiefs were not stupid people. When they saw this scene, they were immediately frightened and their faces turned pale, and they all stepped back.
They have been leading armies for many years. Although they have no military force themselves, there are many people with strong martial arts skills among the troops under their command. Li Xiuyuan's bravery like shattering the wooden table with his palm is extraordinary.
"What are you still doing here? The guerrilla general Li Xiuyuan wants to assassinate our commander. The evidence is conclusive. Kill him quickly." Commander Qian shouted loudly.
"Yes, sir."
More than a dozen soldiers responded in unison, drew their sabers, raised their spears and walked towards Li Xiuyuan.
However, at this moment, Mr. Sun and Mr. Zhao next to them rolled their eyes and suddenly saw that the shore outside the window was densely filled with teams of people wearing golden armor, holding golden spears, and riding strong horses.
of cavalry.
That's General Li from Li Xiuyuan.
"You are worthy of being the commander-in-chief. You charged me with assassination when you came up. If I were captured and killed by you today, I might even become a rebel, and my wife, children, and parents at home would be punished.
This commander-in-chief is really cruel." Li Xiuyuan calmly said, "But the more serious it becomes,
This is better, the commander-in-chief is cruel, and I will not be kind either."
After saying that, he waved his hand and a steel knife appeared in his hand without knowing when.
His tiger's mouth to swallow gold was broken on the battlefield. Now he had no weapons to use, so he could only deal with it with a steel knife.
However, he could easily win against these twenty or thirty soldiers with the same weapons no matter what.
But at this time, General Sun from Yangzhou hurriedly shouted: "Quick, stop it, Lord Qian, stop it. You must not order General Li to be captured and killed."
"Now that the time has come, why not?" Mr. Qian said angrily.
General Sun quickly pointed to the shore outside the window.
General Qian glanced subconsciously, and immediately narrowed his eyes when he saw a dense group of golden-armored cavalry standing on the shore. They were holding long guns, and some had taken out their crossbows, ready to attack, aiming at this person.
A painted ship.
"Stop." He broke into a cold sweat and shouted hurriedly.
The soldiers who were about to take action immediately stopped.
"You all stand down, all stand down." Mr. Qian hurriedly waved off these soldiers.
Although the soldiers were confused, they slowly retreated.
"Oh, why don't the commander-in-chiefs take action?" Li Xiuyuan said with a half-smile.
General Qian was shocked and angry and said: "Li Xiuyuan, what do you want to do? You mobilized all your cavalry and surrounded the Qinhuai River."
Fortunately, I didn't take action just now.
Not to mention whether Li Xiuyuan could be captured and killed if he took action, it would be extremely difficult for him and others to leave here alive.
With such preparation, no wonder he dared to attend the meeting alone.
Li Xiuyuan said, "I don't want to do anything. I just want to play whatever the adults want. I'm just here to accompany you. If the three commander-in-chiefs want to convict me of assassination and capture me on the spot, I will naturally have a fight."
Jinling Mutiny, let’s see in the end result: I won or the three generals won? How?
Well, this is fair, right?"
"Whoever survives to the end will have the last laugh."
After speaking, he touched the steel knife in his hand.
The cold blade made him feel calm, and then he stared at the three general soldiers with a bit of murderous intent.
"You, you madman." General Qian pointed at him and said with a bit of panic: "You are just a guerrilla general, how dare you, how dare you attack me and other generals?"
"I became a madman when I took action? Then it was right for the three general soldiers to kill me?"
Li Xiuyuan burst out laughing: "Is it possible that the three commander-in-chiefs have been serving as officials for a long time and think that everyone in the world should kneel in front of you and only allow you to kill them and not allow them to hurt you?"
"General Li, don't do this nonsense. We are all officials of the imperial court. If you kill us, you will have nothing to do with it." General Sun of Yangzhou next to him hurriedly advised.
Li Xiuyuan said: "Don't worry, a news will spread in Jinling City tomorrow. Three generals were boating on the river. Unfortunately, the cabin leaked and they fell into the river and drowned. The guerrilla general Li Xiuyuan ordered a rescue, but in the end only three were salvaged.
The corpse of the commander-in-chief.”
"How about it? Do the three commander-in-chiefs think there is anything wrong with writing this in the memorial?"
The three commander-in-chiefs felt frightened when they heard this. This Li Xiuyuan looked young, but in fact he was also cunning, cunning, and ruthless.
Mr. Qian had previously convicted him of assassination, but now he actually wanted to drown himself and others in the Qinhuai River.
"If the general soldiers don't say anything, it will be taken as acquiescence." Li Xiuyuan looked at the wooden board under his feet and stepped hard.
Click~!
The thick wooden boards cracked, and the river gurgled out, quickly flooding the area.
Um?
Seeing this scene, the three commander-in-chiefs suddenly shrank their eyes. Now, this madman is really planning to take action.
