Su Lu was confused. Isn't this the place where I want to be the governor? This is such a hot pit. I haven't taken up the post yet. Will this responsibility be placed on me?
Zhou Shilang suddenly stood up and said, "General Zhao, have you ever sent troops to prevent the Dingxiang army from leaving the camp? This matter has become a big deal, and you and I will have nothing to do with it."
There was sweat on Yan Tong's forehead. It was obvious that he had run over. He said in a hoarse voice:
"General Zhao has already led his troops. The news is coming from a team of Dingxiang Army. The camp of Dingxiang Army has been put under martial law. The sergeants of the two sides are confronting each other, and no one has left the camp yet."
Zhou Shilang picked up his robe and walked out: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly."
After taking two steps, Zhou Shilang remembered Su Lu, turned around and invited Su Lu and said:
"Commander Su, let's go together. You are leading the old army. You should have some methods to deal with these arrogant and strong generals. Quan should be a help. I, Zhou Ping, will thank you greatly afterwards."
Chang Ning grabbed Su Lu's sleeve and refused to let him go.
Obviously we can't get involved in this matter. Regardless of whether the mutiny in the military camp succeeds or not, the commander-in-chief will definitely not be able to escape the blame. Su Lu has not yet taken office, so he cannot wade into this muddy water.
Su Lu patted Chang Ning's arm, stood up and said:
"Let's go and have a look with Mr. Zhou. It's just a patrol camp. I can come and go freely among the Tulewan army, and I can still let these guys get some favors."
Changning had no choice but to follow him out.
The four people left the military headquarters and got on the horses brought by the sergeants. Under the leadership of the two imperial guards, the flying horses rushed to the Dingxiang military camp in the west city.
When passing by the government office, Zhou Shilang took a hateful look at the guards who were making trouble in front of the government office, and said in an annoyed voice: "This Bald Xie, the Ministry of War really doesn't dare to do anything to him!"
Chang Ning, who was walking side by side with Su Lu, explained quietly:
"Xie Tang, the auxiliary prince, when he was fighting against the Western Qin in his early years, the hair on his head was cut off by Li Chengfeng, the military god of the Western Qin Dynasty. From then on, Xietang claimed that he escaped from the military god of the Western Qin Dynasty. I was the one who escaped.
The most famous general in Han Dynasty was nicknamed Xie Baldzi because of his bald head."
Su Lu thought that a defeated general could actually talk about it as a source of fame. There was really no one in the Han army.
Changning looked at Su Lu with a strange expression and continued to explain:
"Li Chengfeng is the military god of the Western Qin Dynasty. His military prowess is unparalleled. He is invincible in all battles and invincible in all attacks. He has never lost a single battle, whether against me, the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, or the Southern Chu Dynasty."
Su Lu was surprised when he heard this. I relied on the Soldier Card to gain the reputation of being invincible. This Li Chengfeng is awesome. He doesn't have a set of cards.
Zhou Shilang leaned over and said: "Captain Su is also invincible. I have discussed with Li Shangshu and believe that Governor Su has the hope to grow into the military god of the Han Dynasty and an invincible general like Li Chengfeng."
"That's why Li Shangshu and I agreed to the emperor's decree. First, Governor Su will serve as the commander-in-chief of the Dingxiang Army. When the time comes, he will be released to Guangnan or continue to Xuanfu."
"Captain Su, in the past few years in the capital, you can always go to the Ministry of War to check the war archives of various places. The Ministry of War will definitely cooperate with the information on generals from various countries."
Su Lu was surprised. Zhou Shilang, you told me this kind of news so bluntly. I'm afraid you didn't have any intentions, old man.
Sure enough, after Zhou Shilang finished praising Su Lu, he immediately changed the subject:
"Captain Su, the Dingxiang Army is in front of you. If you can win this mutiny, I, Old Zhou, promise to mark you down."
Su Lu thought to himself, as expected, Old Man Zhou wanted to make peace with himself.
At the gate of the Dingxiang military camp, there were many Imperial Guards in full military uniforms, with their swords unsheathed and their bows strung, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
At the gate of the camp, General Zhao clasped his fists and saluted Zhou Shilang:
"Your Excellency, the military camp has been sealed off. However, there are too many sergeants involved in the mutiny in the camp. We dare not invade. Please give me your permission."
Zhou Shilang looked at Su Lu.
Su Lu asked: "General Zhao, how many forbidden troops are there in the camp, and how many participated in the mutiny?"
General Zhao glanced at Shilang Zhou.
Zhou Shilang said impatiently: "This is the new commander-in-chief of the Dingxiang Army, General Su Lu. His words are my words. Say whatever I ask you."
General Zhao cupped his fists and saluted Su Lu: "I have met Governor Su. There are currently three guard camps in the camp, with a total of 3,000 people. The number of people involved in the mutiny is unknown, but it will not be less than 1,000."
Su Lu frowned and looked at the shadowy military camp. This matter is not easy to handle.
"General Zhao, how many forbidden troops can you control?"
General Zhao pondered for a moment: "Three brigades, less than three hundred people."
Su Lu thought that these few people were of no use. There were too few people to seal the barracks. If he went in with him, he would probably be torn apart by the mutinous imperial army.
But it was not enough to go in alone. There was no way to win the trust of the guards who had not mutinied. They needed an important person to accompany them. Su Lu looked at Zhou Shilang next to him.
"Master Zhou, how about accompanying me to the military camp?"
Zhou Shilang's face turned pale when he heard this, but when he saw the eyes around him, he had to bite the bullet and said:
"Okay, Governor Su, I'll go with you, but can you save me, no, our lives?"
Su Lu clapped his horse forward and said in a confident voice: "Thulwan's army is not something to be afraid of. There are thousands of mutinous Forbidden Army brats. It's not a piece of cake to deal with them."
Changning rode up to follow.
Zhou Shilang's face changed. Although he was worried, he still followed in. Although he was annoyed that Su Lu didn't take his life seriously, he still had some expectations. Su Lu's army was invincible and should be able to suppress this.
A mutiny.
As soon as Zhou Shilang entered the military camp, he was startled by the densely packed Forbidden Army in front of him.
His calves were cramped, and Shilang Zhou couldn't even ride the horse. If Chang Ning hadn't been quick-sighted and helped him, he would have fallen off the horse.
Su Lu clapped his horse forward, ignoring Lin Li's swords and guns, and said:
"What, is it because someone deducted your military pay, or stopped you from eating, that you actually want to mutiny?"
A gang leader carrying a knife waved his long knife and said: "Fart, what does my rebellion have to do with you? Believe it or not, I will chop you down right now."
Su Lu rode up to the general stage, blessed himself with a level 3 scout card, jumped up onto the general stage, and spoke.
"Cut me?"
"I am the newly appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Dingxiang Army, a fifth-rank Ranger General, Kaiguozi, Su Lu."
"It doesn't matter if you rebelled. The emperor might let you off the hook and kill me. Do you believe that the emperor will behead all of you?"
The gang leader, who was showing his teeth and claws, shrank back.
Several captains stood up and gathered in front of the general stage, pointing their swords and guns at Su Lu:
"I don't care who founded the country. If they dare to lay off the brothers, we are not willing to do it. If we don't pay the military pay owed to the brothers, no one can get it back."
"Without military pay, it will be difficult for anyone to use it."
"Yes, it doesn't work."
A group of forbidden troops shouted again, moved forward with swords and guns, and surrounded the commander's platform. Under the instigation of the captains, the battle was about to break out.
Chang Ning and Zhou Shilang were completely surrounded by the troublemaking Imperial Army. There were many swords and guns pointing at their bodies. As if they dared to make any move, more than a dozen holes were immediately poked out of their bodies.
Zhou Shilang wailed in his heart, it's over!
Su Lu was too careless, he came in so rashly, and even if he had to pay for it, I would be doomed too.
