(Thanks to hsd265450, Xiaofeilong ぜ sword, Yang Zhipan, wind-blown hair and several children's shoes for monthly ticket support.) People are a little uncomfortable today, and it has not been updated until now, sorry! )
In the main hall of the palace, at this time, it can be said that there are two top people from the Qingzhou Festival Marshal's Mansion and the Ya General. The banquet did not use independent small tables, but a huge rectangular table placed in the hall, and then dozens of people sat on the left and right sides on both sides, which was clearly distinguished.
On the right, Song Wei sat first, followed by Zhang Wanrong, the military envoy, followed by the deputy marshal Kang Chengyu, and Sima Cui Yunqing. Then there are judges, secretaries, envoys, staff officers and other officials, and after these civil officials, there are the generals of the marshal's mansion. In addition, the deputy envoys, support envoys, judges, minor envoys, and personal guard generals from the side of the Supervision Military Yuan were also present. There are also three Shangzuo, Changshi, Sima, Beijia and Liucao officials in Qingzhou.
On the left, Wang Jingwu sat in the first place, followed by a general of the Qingzhou Tooth Army. Qingzhou tooth soldiers are divided into five departments, for the front of the ya, the inside of the ya, the back of the ya, and the front yard and the back yard, each of the five departments of a thousand people, the main will be the soldiers and horses, only Wang Jingwu is the soldiers and horses. Speaking of which, in fact, the relationship between the five departments of the Qingzhou Tooth Soldiers is not directly subordinate. The relationship between the military leaders of various ministries and Wang Jingwu is more like an alliance, and Wang Jingwu is the leader of this alliance.
Wang Jingwu can control the tooth soldiers, and what is more important is that in addition to the 1,000 soldiers and horses in Wang Jingwu's hands, he also has 3,000 private soldiers, plus 1,000 soldiers from the generals in the Yanai, and his Yanai soldiers are enough to have 5,000 people. The tooth soldiers of the other four divisions are inferior to his subordinates in terms of numbers and elites, and the other four divisions have a thousand soldiers and horses. plus the families of the generals, there are more than 1,000. There were only 2,000 people in each section.
Not to mention. After several generations of operation of the Wang family over the years, now sitting in this hall in front of the soldiers and horses Liu Dang, the soldiers and horses in the Ya Nei envoy Feng Rang, the front yard soldiers and horses Zhou Rong, the backyard soldiers and horses Zhao Jin, these four soldiers and horses are basically with the Wang family is several generations of in-laws, mutual contact and relatives, only Wang Jingwu is the first to look forward.
For the Qingzhou Tooth Army, they not only have relatives and in-laws, but also have interests linked to each other. Wang Jingwu is the head of the Qingzhou tooth soldiers. It is the head of the snake head of the snake, and in the face of Song Wei and Zhang Wanrong, their interests are the same.
They also knew that if Wang Jingwu was eliminated by Song Wei, the result waiting for them would be the same as Wang Jingwu. Wang Jingwu had already made all this very clear to them, and they had already drunk the blood wine together, this time they had to advance and retreat together, completely obeying Wang Jingwu's command, and a total of 9,000 soldiers and horses from the five divisions of the tooth soldiers had been handed over to Wang Jingwu.
In the hall, the atmosphere was not very good. Since Song Wei came to take Yu Xuan's position, the tooth soldiers and the Shuai Mansion have been on their side. It's just constant friction. For more than a year, the two sides have had the opportunity to come together as they do today. And not a few times.
Wang Jingwu looked at the crowd on Song Wei's side opposite, and couldn't help but feel complicated in his heart. Song Wei's skills are indeed much stronger than those previous marshals, not only brought the side of the prison army together to deal with him, but also united the Cui family of the largest clan in Qingzhou. With Cui Yunqing's full support, Qingzhou's local power was divided into two, and the military still firmly followed him, but most of those civilian officials fell to Song Wei. Not only the state capital Sanshangzuo, but also the important Liucao and other officials, almost all of them have fallen to Song Wei.
recalled Song Wei's repeated shots, and it seemed as if he was pressed and beaten, but in fact, Song Wei's movements continued, but he had already quietly pulled all the forces except for the Qingzhou tooth soldiers to his side. Even if there is no plan to destroy the enemy by using the pretense of Li Jing to lead the troops to come this time, it is estimated that it will not be long before Song Wei's power can directly compete with him.
Although there is the sound of silk and bamboo in the hall, few people in the hall are in the mood to appreciate it. Wang Jingwu and other tooth soldiers and generals were like this, and Song Wei's people were even more so.
Wang Jingwu picked up a glass of wine and saluted Song Wei: "The handsome man came to my Qingzhou, and my Wang has not been able to entertain him well once as a landlord, so I am ashamed to say it." This glass of wine, I salute the handsome! ”
Song Wei picked up a glass of wine, but did not drink it directly, but looked at Wang Jingwu with a solemn face.
Seeing Song Wei's reaction like this, Wang Jingwu felt a burst of anger in his heart, this Song Wei was really a toast and didn't eat and drink. As soon as he raised his head, he drank the wine in his hand directly, chuckled and said, "I'll do it first for respect!" Dashuai has been in Qingzhou for nearly two years, and according to the rules of the imperial court, Dashuai will have to be transferred to another place in another year. I don't know if the marshal has thought about it, where will the next one go? ”
Song Wei also smiled slightly: "Ziqing Town's term of office has not expired, and it is too early to talk about those at this time!" ”
Wang Jingwu shook his head, "How can this be early, the marshal is also from the forbidden army in Chang'an, in fact, according to me, it is best to move now, and directly seek a position in Beijing when I take office, it is better than a small place like Qingzhou." I've heard that the lieutenants of the Left and Right Divine Strategies Army have been renamed Commanders, and I also heard that there is a vacancy in the Left and Right Divine Strategies Army right now. I think this position of commander of the Divine Command Army is very suitable for the commander. If the marshal is willing, he will have a game with the marshal, and I and my subordinates are willing to spend a million yuan to help the marshal compete for this position. ”
This is Wang Jingwu's last effort, trying to avoid the death of the fish this time. In fact, as a last resort, Wang Jingwu is really unwilling to really do it. Song Wei's origin is too big, he doesn't have any worries about taking down Song Wei, he is still worried about what will follow. In case the court refuses to admit it, it will be a facompli, and then send troops to encircle and suppress it, and he has no confidence to fight against the court soldiers and horses.
If Song Wei can understand the situation and voluntarily leave Qingzhou, then he can not only be his Pinglu marshal, but also avoid a mutiny with known consequences, even if he takes out a million, he feels that it is worth it.
Unexpectedly, after Song Wei heard this, he only smiled slightly, and objected to him: "If Wang Ya will be willing to return to old age, Ben Shuai is willing to give one million yuan to Wang Ya will be used as a settlement fee." ”
Cui Yunqing said on the side: "If Wang Ya is willing to retire, the old man is willing to come up with another million." ”
This is unwilling, Wang Jingwu sighed, it seems that Song Wei and the others will not shed tears when they don't see the coffin. There is no possibility of a peaceful settlement at the end, Wang Jingwu's face is ugly, and he feels that things should be like this when he thinks about it. People like them, when they reach their current status, who cares about some money, although millions of dollars, but who doesn't have such a net worth? Power is the most important thing.
"In that case, it's a bit of self-deprecation!" Wang Jingwu stood up with a calm face, "I'm going to change my clothes, and I'll be back later." ”
As soon as Song Wei saw Wang Jingwu's reaction, he immediately knew what he was going to do next. If he goes out, it will not be him who will come back, but the axeman. The prison army made Zhang Wanrong pretend to miss his hand and dropped the cup, and a crisp sound sounded in the hall. Perhaps because he was afraid that the voice was not loud enough to reach Li Jing and the others, the eunuch hurriedly stood up again and said, "The old man will come when he goes." As he spoke, he pretended to be unstable under his feet, and the whole person almost fell, and his hand swiped on the table, and suddenly the cups, dishes, and dishes in front of him were all swept to the ground, and the sound of porcelain cracking sounded in ping-pong. Ah, rudeness, faux pas, our family is too strong to drink, I'm really sorry. ”
When this happened, Wang Jingwu couldn't turn around and leave directly, so he had to stand there and call someone to deal with it.
In the courtyard outside the hall, the loud noises of Li Jing and the others continued to come out, and the sound of guessing and persuading the wine continued, and those maids were far away and no one approached. As a result, no one noticed that although Li Jing and the others in the small courtyard shouted loudly, in fact, everyone was already unsheathed at this time.
As soon as the sound of cups and plates shattering in the hall came out, Li Jing, who had been waiting nervously, immediately bowed his body like a cheetah.
"Do it!" Li Jing let out a low cry and took the lead in rushing straight into the hall like a leopard.
As soon as he rushed out of the small courtyard door, twenty steps ahead was the hall where Song Wei was. There was also a row of eight family members standing outside the hall door, these people were just standing outside the hall to make a appearance, Wang Jingwu's real killing move was the knife and axe hand in the wing room behind the hall. They didn't know about the plan of King Jingwu of Lu Dao, they were just a group of ordinary family members in the house, and they were all a little surprised when they suddenly saw a large group of people rushing out of the front yard.
Someone recognized that this group of people was the group of soldiers from the Shuai Mansion who had made trouble in the mansion before, and couldn't help but think that Li Jing and the others were drunk and making trouble. They had to come forward to intercept it immediately, and no one even called the police. In such a stunned manner, Li Jing and the others had quickly approached the eight family members, and at this time, these family members finally saw the snow bright horizontal knife in the hands of Li Jing and the others.
Before they could react again, Li Jing took a vertical leap, and the horizontal knife in his hand slashed like lightning, and a family member had already fallen. The other special operations soldiers who followed Li Jing also quickly arrived, and the other seven were all taken out in a few swords.
"Whine the arrows, tell the other brethren to do it immediately, and we will rush in!" Li Jing let out a low cry and kicked open the hall door first.
Bang!
Wang Jingwu only heard a loud bang on the door of the hall, and then saw a man who looked like a soldier of the Shuai Mansion rushing in with a snowy long knife. He was stunned for a moment, and some did not react for a while. But Song Wei and the others reacted quickly, and when they saw Li Jing rushing in, they couldn't help but show an excited expression. Song Wei, who was closest to Wang Jingwu, immediately pulled out a dagger from his waist, and the others did the same.
When they were seated, Song Wei handed over all the swords they were carrying to the palace steward, but no one cared about the unusually beautifully decorated dagger on everyone's waist. But by this time, these daggers had all become weapons. In an instant, Song Wei had already rushed in front of Wang Jingwu with a dagger inlaid with gold and jade.
The duel between generals and commanders is not on the battlefield, but in this night banquet.
One is a veteran on the battlefield, the other is a Qingzhou general, and he crosses the river to fight the head snake alone. (To be continued......)
