Chapter Ninety-Six: Humiliation, Oath
Sure enough, this time Liu Ruozai didn't immediately say anything like nothing. Dong Ce's clear and well-organized plan even gave him a lot of confidence in next year's notebook, and if he continues to do this, he will definitely be able to do it! And Dashigu is the screen domain of Zhenhe Fort, so that the next series of benefits makes him know that in this matter, his investment will definitely pay off!
He pondered for a moment and said, "This matter is very high, and this official must think about it for two days. ”
Although he said this, Dong Ce was not worried, Liu Ruozai seemed to have made up his mind, but he just saw how many things he could pull out of his hands.
He replied respectfully.
"Alright, you stand down!" Liu Ruozai waved his hand: "In the past two days, I will first live in Zhenhe Fort, and the official has already ordered to go down and arrange a barracks for you." ”
"That's it?"
Dong Ce couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't expect Liu Ruozai to really ignore Hou Jiawei's affairs.
It's really calm!
"You're not in a hurry, I'm still in a hurry! Seeing that the summer is coming to an end, Hou Jiawei's matter hangs in the air, how can I recruit displaced people, how can I train troops with peace of mind? Dong Ce secretly scolded in his heart, and he couldn't care about being rude, so he got up and said, "My lord, what about Hou Jiawei ......?"
"This official has seen it, and it has been reported, because it is a horse thief, it is not as troublesome as Jiannu, Datong Town can call the shots, Xu Ruji's caress > novel ybdu shirt and your reward will come down soon." Liu Ruozai sighed, and expressed a little regret for Xu Ruji's death, and then encouraged: "This time, you Dong Ce broke three hundred horse thieves with eight horses, it can be said that Datong Town was shaken, so powerful, the official was also happy in his heart, and he thought that he needed a big reward." Therefore, I have asked for another reward for you in the paperwork! ”
This is a gesture of goodwill, Dong Ce understood in his heart, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Thank you for your cultivation!" He must die for the adults! ”
Liu Ruozai nodded with satisfaction and gently stroked the hair under his chin.
Dong Ce's performance made him very satisfied, and he happened to have no effective generals under his hands now, if he wanted to make great contributions, let the emperor see it, and let those Donglin party members dare not add contempt at will, but also look at military merits, there must be generals who can fight and soldiers who are good at fighting. Liu Ruozai saw this very clearly, and this errand now fell on Dong Ce.
He has now consciously cultivated Dong Ce.
Dong Ce is also quite grateful in his heart, in the environment of the Ming Dynasty, there are few people who can do better than Liu Ruozai.
He kowtowed but didn't get up, but continued: "My lord, I don't know what to do with Hou Jiawei? ”
Liu Ruozai paused, and his face sank: "This is not something you can ask, step down!" ”
He seemed to feel that his tone was a little harsh, Dong Ce was now more or less his henchman in Northern Hebei Province, but it was not good to break his heart. So he eased up slightly and said, "Hou Jiawei's matter, after all, there is no evidence, and this matter cannot be used against him." You have to watch this, and you can't act rashly. ”
Dong Ce raised his head and said, "My lord, there are ugly words here at the end of the general. ”
"Oh?" Liu Ruozai was in a good mood at this time, and he intended to appease, and said with interest: "Let's talk about it!" ”
But there is no hope in my heart, but he is a young man, what advanced strategies can he have? Besides, most of these warriors are just fighting and killing, how can they know the ingenuity of those officialdom fighting openly and secretly?
But Dong Ce's next sentence made him no longer relaxed.
Dong Ce took two steps forward, and when the two of them were alone, he subconsciously lowered his voice, and said: "My lord, the general thinks that the story of Yuan Chonghuan's killing of Mao Wenlong should be done when dealing with Hou Jiawei!" ”
"What?" Liu Ruozai was shocked, and his face changed drastically, and he almost got up from his chair!
Dong Ce lowered his eyebrows, but his tone was as cold as ice: "Please sir, do what Yuan Chonghuan did in the past!" ”
Liu Ruozai wrinkled his brows and stared at Dong Ce, his face cloudy.
Following Yuan Chonghuan's story, he naturally knew what Dong Ce meant by this.
Liu Ruozai looked at Dong Ce fixedly: "Reason." ”
"Yes"
Dong Ce cleared his throat and said in a deep voice: "First, Hou Jiawei is crazy. He dared to send someone to surround Shilipu today and kill Lord Xu Ruji, who dared to say that he would not dare to sneak through the bandits on a different day and come to Zhenhe Fort? Needless to say, he doesn't even need to really fight, as long as he asks people to pretend to be Mongolian Tartars to take a turn under Zhenhe Fort, the adult's guilt will not be light. This person is really vicious. ”
"Two." Dong Ce paused, and the expression on his face was a little strange: "This is Liweiye!" If you want to achieve great things, if you want to make achievements, you have to work together, and soldiers must use their lives. It's just that the generals have always been arrogant, I'm afraid it's not easy to govern, Hou Jiawei has a way to die, and everyone is terrified! How dare you not serve the power of death? ”
When Dong Ce said these words, his heart was dripping with blood, his blood seemed to be boiling, almost his whole body was about to convulse, a deep and sad anger was stirring in his chest, and the whole person was so depressed that it almost exploded. Forced to endure it, he was able to let himself finish these words with his usual face.
He knew that his current behavior was no different from that of a treacherous minister.
He also understands that he is trampling on the personality of all military generals, and is using the dignity of military generals as his stepping stone!
He even knew that once this matter was made, Liu Ruozai would get the sweetness, and the lives of all the generals under the jurisdiction of Hebei Province in the future could be said to be tied to Liu Ruozai's thoughts. Whoever he wants to kill, he will kill him when he opens his mouth, and he doesn't have to go through those processes again. He Dong Ce is no exception.
And what made Dong Ce most sad was that he, as a military general, had to practice military generals like this.
"But what can I do? He Hou Jiawei's sword is biased, and I will go more obliquely, more biasedly, and more ruthlessly than him! If he had to make trouble for me, it would never have been possible to do great things! ”
"I swear, one day, I will let the generals no longer be subordinate to the civil servants! I want all the warriors to exhale and raise their eyebrows! Civil and military affairs are only divided into functions, so how can there be a difference between high and low? ”
A voice echoed in his head, supporting him to do this thing against his will.
The first reason is that Liu Ruozai doesn't care much, but the latter one moved him.
His mood to make achievements as soon as possible was even more urgent than Dong Ce's, because he was facing an extremely terrifying behemoth -- the Donglin Party. And this behemoth, acting unscrupulously, has no bottom line at all, most of the members are scum, and what will be held all day long is party contention, party contention.
But it's just a concern, how can Hou Jiawei compare with Mao Wenlong? Killing it is like killing a dog, who will ask? As long as the fabricated crime is strong enough, then it will be an iron case!
