Chapter 233: Verbal Battle
The so-called mediation, in Li Jing's view, is just an after-the-fact acknowledgment of the existing facts on the Dengzhou side by the Qingzhou side. However, in order to show their majesty and prevent the situation from further escalating, they were eventually involved in the war, so they sent people to mediate.
The officials on the dock greeted him, which also indirectly showed that Li Jing did a good job this time, not only hurting Feng Zhang, but also playing his prestige as Li Jing. Even the dignified and festive marching Sima and the high-ranking civil and military officials of Dengzhou were all present.
After grasping the basic bottom line of this mediation, Li Jing was reassured. began to deliberately show the arrogant and arrogant side, he knew that now he has the capital to be arrogant and arrogant, and the more so, the more he will be able to stand in a higher position in the next mediation and achieve better results.
The mediation meeting was not held in Dengzhou's Assassin's Mansion, but was chosen in the Danya Villa of King Zhao, who was a witness. Although this villa is located within the mountain city of Dengzhou, Li Jing now has a hundred of the most elite guards by his side, and Cui Yunqing and Song Wen, Li Wei, Wang Jingwen, Wang Jin and other commanders of the camps in Dengzhou are going, Li Jing does not have to worry about Wang Jin daring to play with fire.
Entering the villa hall, Feng Zhang finally 'woke up'. As soon as he sat down, Li Jing leaned on the villain first, took the lead, and grabbed people first.
"Today, all the princes are here, and there are even teachers who come from Qingzhou in person, and I hereby implore the princes to uphold justice under their posts." Li Jing didn't wait for Feng Zhang to speak, he took the first step and said loudly, pretending to be very aggrieved on his face: "You don't know that since your subordinates were appointed as the generals of Shamen Town, Feng Zhang has always been prejudiced against his subordinates. At the beginning of his tenure, the first thing he did was to go to Da Xie Yan to meet him. But he deliberately avoided it when he was in the city. He also ignored all the excerpts I called in Shamen Town to ask for food and weapons. Until now. Da Xie Yan didn't give us a penny of food and military salaries, and last time it was Song Tingshi who was in charge, he barely pulled out 300 sets of tattered ordnance. ”
"It's nothing." Li Jing complained a lot, "What's even more annoying is that Feng Zhang actually colluded with the pirate One-Eyed Jiao to lead him to raid my Shamen Town. Fortunately, the sergeants of our town and the children of the town resisted desperately to defend their homeland, and finally annihilated the enemy at the heavy cost of killing more than 600 soldiers and children. From beginning to end, Da Xie Yan, who was only a few miles away from my Shamen, never sent a single soldier to support. It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that he came belatedly at the urging of Song Tingshi. ”
"What makes me even more angry is that when my town finally found the remnants of the one-eyed Jiao, and he would have personally asked Feng Zhang to suppress the bandits, not only did he not send a single soldier. On the contrary, when our army went to the nest thief, he secretly sent a fleet to attack our army. Thanks to the desperate efforts of the officers and men of the whole army, and the indiscriminate command of the useless nephew sent by Feng Zhang, our army finally defeated its fleet. Unexpectedly, as soon as our army returned to Shamen, before he could find the princes to uphold justice, Feng Zhang was impatient to lead all his troops and horses to attack our island. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, if it weren't for me, Li Jing would still ask himself some skills. and all the brothers under his command and the children of the town. changed to someone else, but I am afraid that he has already been murdered by Feng Zhang. Today all the public is here. Li Jing only begged the princes to give me justice, so that the thousands of children who were killed by Feng Zhang in my town could be blinded. If not, the subordinate will fight to the death, and he will also lead the brothers in the town to completely calm down the Great Xie Yan, and kill the old thief to comfort the heroic souls of the dead brothers! ”
These words were filled with righteous indignation, and they almost burst into tears, and those who heard it couldn't help but sigh, regardless of the truth, first of all, Li Jing's tone and expression were really in place. Cui Yunqing, who was sitting above, couldn't help but marvel, smiled at Li Jing slightly, and was very satisfied with the three locks of long beard. As soon as Li Jing came up, he took the lead, and if he said such a thing, then the next things would be much easier.
Feng Zhang was anxious and angry, and wanted to interject several times, but was stopped by Wang Jingwen. With so many Shangguan present today, if Feng Zhang forcibly interjected, it would only leave a more unfavorable impression on everyone.
Seeing that Li Jing finally finished speaking, Feng Zhang rose up angrily, his face was swollen red, his chest rose and fell, and his whole body trembled. He was so majestic in Dengzhou in the past, how could he have suffered such a great humiliation in the past ten years. Now that he is getting old, he has lost all his face.
"Nonsense, reversing black and white, distorting right and wrong. How did this official ever collude with pirates to attack you? ”
Li Jing immediately retorted: "That one-eyed Jiao is far away in Duli Town, Liaodong, and as soon as I took office, he came all the way to raid me. I have no grievances with him for a long time, and no enmity for the near future. What's more, along the way, the pirates connected more than 30 islands in the five forts and seven wars under your jurisdiction, if it wasn't for your guidance, how could they have been able to raid Salmon Island quietly all the way? You must know that Shamen Town is surrounded by Da Xie Island on three sides, if it is not for your guidance, how can you enter Tangwan Port? ”
Feng Zhang was angry, he knew that the person who colluded with the pirates was Wang Jin, but how could he say it on such an occasion. The fact is that it is precisely because he knows that Wang Jin colluded with the pirates to fight Li Jing, so he turned a blind eye to the pirates all the way, and now it's okay, Li Jing didn't mention Wang Jin, but pushed the responsibility on him, he was really yellow mud and fell into the crotch of his pants, not but.
"Why, I can't tell. And you said that you didn't send a fleet to attack me, so let me ask you again, why did your fleet unite with the one-eyed Jiao's fleet when we returned from exterminating the pirates and were about to return, and suddenly appeared in Iron Mountain Harbor and burned more than a dozen of my ships? If we hadn't fought to the death, would we have had the opportunity to make these enlightened princes here today? ”
"This is a trap you deliberately laid down, you colluded with the pirate town of the East China Sea and deliberately lured our army." Feng Zhang was furious.
"If you don't sneak up on me, even if I take more precautions, how can I trap you? Don't collude with pirates yourself, just say that I collude with pirates too. I have some physical evidence, that battle, captured your nephew who commanded the sneak attack on me, several captains under your command, and the pirate captives who colluded with you. Can you also deny this? Saying that, Li Jing asked Li Wei to bring Feng Ming, Wu Qian, Zhang Lie, Zheng Mo and others to present, all of which had their signatures and red handprints.
Seeing these ironclad evidence, Cui Yunqing is even more relieved, it doesn't matter what the truth is, what matters is that Li Jing's hand is playing beautifully, and after mastering this evidence, he is now completely on the side of the upper hand.
Now, no matter how much Feng Zhang quibbles, it is useless, because those are still prisoners in Li Jing's hands, and he can call people to confront him at any time. What's more, he heard that Wu Qian and Zhang Lie had now directly taken refuge in Li Jing, and they would definitely echo Li Jing's words when the time came. He couldn't help but curse in his heart, after scolding Wu Qian, Zhang Lie and others for their disloyalty, and scolding Feng Ming for his stupidity, not listening to his orders, attacking Li Jing without authorization, and the whole army was wiped out, not to mention, and he had no room to refute now.
"It was not my military order to attack you, but Wu Qian and Zhang Lie, who made their own decisions and acted forcibly. What's more, don't pretend to be innocent, when you were still in the United Army, you led someone to secretly assassinate my brother Shi Feng Yanqing, the governor of Deng, and Feng Ming They were just revenge for this. ”
Li Jing smiled coldly, "Hehe, this is really a joke, Feng Yanqing obviously died at the hands of Zhen Donghai, this matter has already been decided." You're a little too unresourceful to plant yourself on me now. Besides, then Wu Qian and Zhang Lie are just a small captain, if it weren't for your orders, how would they dare to raid me without permission? What's more, that battle was commanded by Ling Nephew, he was just a Duyu Marquis, under Zhang Lie and Wu Qian, but he could command the fleet to raid me, you dare to say that this was not your order? ”
Cui Yunqing said in a timely manner: "Feng soldiers and horses, Li Zhen will have real evidence for your command, but you command Li Zhen will be the one who killed your brother, may you come up with evidence?" ”
Feng Zhang's real evidence, he is just the result of some circumstantial evidence and inferences that Wang Jin secretly gave him. Although the facts are most likely to be true, these are not direct evidence and cannot be put on the table. What's more, those circumstantial evidence pointed out that the real culprit behind the scenes behind him was Cui Yunqing, and Li Jing was just a hands-on person. How do you say these words? Say it, it will only get worse.
"Why, isn't it too much for you to speculate without evidence, and even to collude with pirates to attack your subordinates?" Feng Zhang said slowly, but his tone was full of majesty.
Feng Zhang was also a little messy at this time, he didn't expect that the matter would be like this, and he couldn't help but say loudly: "Although I have no direct evidence, this is the case, Li Jing is my enemy who killed my brother." And Li Jing also colluded with pirates, he has been secretly communicating with Zhendonghai, and now those pirates are still in Li Jing's army. He colluded with pirates, privately expanded his troops and horses, and just ransacked the forts under my Da Xie Yan, not only robbed money and food, but also took away all the people on the island. ”
Wang Jingwen couldn't help but shake his head slightly when he saw that Feng Zhang was still paying attention to these side branches at this time, Feng Zhang was confused, how could he admit those things? Even if Li Jing is ironclad in evidence, he can be sure that it is perjury. It's good now, he himself admits the guilt of these Li Jing commands, then there is no point in talking about Li Jing's robbery or something. What's more, Li Jing is so cunning, isn't it easy to admit it?
Sure enough, Li Jing smiled and said: "It is comfortable to seal the soldiers and horses to stay in the Great Xie Yan these days, and withdraw the soldiers and horses from the other islands into the South Island." The other islands were so empty that any few people dared to go up to the islands to rob them. The people of all the islands were panicked and sent people to Salmon Island to ask for relocation to our island and seek refuge. I couldn't bear it, so I finally reluctantly agreed. As for what the envoy said, it was a complete misunderstanding, I just sent ships and people to help the relocated people move. How can you talk about robbery, can you help people move out of the crime of robbery these days? (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
