On the third watch, the dark clouds are getting thicker, and the stars and the moon are bleak.

The city of Qingzhou is brightly lit and has entered a state of martial law in the whole city. The troops, who received the order to be dispatched, patrolled the streets in full gear, and anyone who went out into the streets without the will of the King was to be killed!

Troops who have not received orders are not allowed to step out of the barracks, otherwise they will be killed!

The leaders of the centurion and above of the Qingzhou Army were all gathered on the large flat in the front yard of the French King's Mansion. Around Daping, there are hundreds of fierce sergeants armed with torches and long knives at their waists, vigilant inside and outside Daping!

Everyone didn't dare to breathe, they had already found that Dong Yangao and Bai Baier were not present, and Zhu Zhantan, who came to the peace talks, was still in the mansion, but Tang Tiande was vigorously engaging in martial law in the whole city, obviously wanting to break the net!

Everyone waited quietly for the arrival of the Dharma King, and waited until the east was slightly white, and then they heard a sound of footsteps. Everyone followed the prestige, only to see Tang Tiande dressed in military uniform, carrying a golden knife at his waist, and appeared on the high platform in front of Daping with a solemn face, and behind him, stood Tang Feng, Wang Xian, Liu Xin, and Ding Gugang, all of whom were also in armor, with knives and guns in hand!

No one dared to speak, and they all looked at Tang Tiande in fear. Tang Tiande's cold gaze swept over everyone, and through the faint light of the sky, he clearly saw the fear on their faces, and then he said in a deep voice: "Last night, Dong Yangao, Hao Yunzhong, and Bai Baier, the three traitors, actually colluded with Zhu Zhantan's family, in a vain attempt to assassinate the king and subvert my Great Song regime!" ”

......As soon as Tang Tiande's words came out, everyone couldn't help it anymore, and couldn't help but burst into a burst of exclamations.

"Silence!" Ding Gu just shouted violently, although he reacted the same way when he heard the news before, it did not prevent him from scolding everyone at the moment, and hurried to perform in front of Tang Tiande to make up for the lack of last night's absence.

Only then did everyone quiet down, and Tang Tiande continued to say in a deep voice: "Fortunately, there is a black prime minister who is like a god, who has insight into the conspiracy of the thieves in advance, and General Liu's loyal protector, so that the conspiracy of the thieves was thwarted and they were killed at the foot of the old man!" ”

Before the words fell, Tang Feng threw the bloody four human heads in front of everyone, and said strangely: "Their corpses have been fed to the dogs!" This is what happens to the thieves! ”

The 'up......roar' became louder now, and everyone couldn't keep their composure, and the old departments of Dong Yangao and the three of them all showed horror on their faces, worried that they would be implicated. Even those who are loyal to Tang Tiande can't keep their composure, because this is likely to be the beginning of civil strife in Qingzhou and an all-out war with the King of Han!

"Silence, silence!" Ding Gugang shouted loudly: "Who is making noise again, drag it out...... Forty rods! ”

Only then did everyone reluctantly calm down, either fearful, resentful, or worried looking at Elder Tang.

Tang Tiande took out the letter from his bosom and said slowly: "This king knows that some people have doubts, I don't know if this king is fabricating facts, or if there is indeed such a thing. This is a letter from Zhu Zhantan's body, Feng Xuan'er, you read it to everyone! ”

Feng Xuan'er is Dong Yangao's deputy general, and when he heard this, he stepped forward hard, took the letter and opened it to take a look, his face changed, and he read it to everyone in a trembling voice for a while!

When the generals heard this, many people were filled with indignation, raised their arms and shouted: "Swear to kill the King of Han!" Defend the King! The chanting became louder and louder, and the generals of Dong Yangao and the three had to shout together......

"The old man knows that many of you present have a close relationship with the three of them, so it is inevitable that you will have concerns about whether you will be implicated." Elder Tang raised his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and then said in his heart: "But the old man told you that I have been friends with the three of them for decades, and the relationship is deeper than that of you, if you want to investigate, the old man is the first!" ”

"Hehe......" The crowd let out a chuckle, and many people's tense heartstrings relaxed.

"Moreover, our Great Song Army has completed its reorganization, and there is no one's private army, all of them are the Great Song Army!" Elder Tang said loudly: "So this king can swear to the heavens that absolutely no officers and soldiers will be held accountable because of their past relationship, as long as they are loyal and brave to kill the enemy, this king will treat them equally, and they will definitely not be treated differently!" Otherwise, the old man's soul will be scattered, and he will never enter reincarnation! "Elder Tang is a fast learner, and he swore two oaths in a row.

"King Xie is magnanimous, and we will swear allegiance to the Dharma King!" Those old departments of Dong Yangao and others, when will they not show loyalty at this time? !

"Go ahead!" Elder Tang nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and said, "Pacify your subordinates, don't cause trouble!" ”

"Yes!" The generals responded in an uproar, and after saluting, they retreated.

Looking at the backs of the generals who were gone, Elder Tang was still nervous, he was naturally very clear that no matter how loud the cannon was, the key depended on what they did!

"Your Majesty can rest assured," Wang Xian comforted softly, "the students can make a military order, and there will be no chaos." ”

"Then I'll be relieved." After receiving Wang Xian's assurance again, Elder Tang slightly put his heart back into his stomach......

It turns out that Wang Xian did not say big things. The next day should be regarded as the most dangerous day, if anyone has a grievance and wants to cause chaos, it will basically explode on this day. But from morning to night, Qingzhou City was quiet, and there was no chaos......

This is largely due to the military reform that Wang Xian has been implementing in recent times. In short, he scattered and reorganized the army that was originally divided by the township hall, restrained it with strict military law, and collected it with a rich reward! Wang Xian experimented with Liu Jun with this method, which can be described as immediate, and now he has summed up the lessons of the beginning, and the effect is naturally more outstanding.

Of course, the original problem is still not solved - that is, this method is simply burning money! The method that Wang Xian used to eliminate the side effects of the harsh punishment method was to use heavy rewards and generous gifts to gag everyone's mouths! The so-called money can make the ghost grind, Wang Xian sprinkled so much money, of course others were willing to mix with him!

But in just one month, he has burned out more than one million taels of silver, accounting for seventy percent of the silver deposited by the Qingzhou army!

This is the reason why Wang Xian must kill Bin Hong, if Bin Hong is still there and still in charge of military supplies, it is absolutely impossible to let Wang Xian squander it like this. Now that Bin Hong is dead, Wang Xian has the final say on military money and food, and no one cares how he wants to toss! Although if he continued to toss it again, within a month, the little savings of the White Lotus Sect would be completely lost, but Wang Xian didn't care at all!

What he wants is not for a long time, but for the next month, and it is enough for this army to completely obey him......

Another day passed, Qingzhou City was still safe and sound, and Elder Tang was completely relieved. Seeing that the problem he had always thought was unsolvable, it was not a problem at all in Wang Xian's place, and Elder Tang admired Wang Xian more and more! As everyone knows, this guy is just a cub selling Ye Tian and not feeling distressed, and he is just betting on the future of the Qingzhou Army today! .

Seeing that the army was already under control, Elder Tang summoned a group of senior generals to discuss the decisive battle with the King of Han!

Although they all knew that they had killed Zhu Zhantan and the King of Han could only fight to the death, a group of generals were still afraid of Zhu Gaoxu when they mentioned Zhu Gaoxu, and they advocated shrinking the defense line and sticking to the city to prevent the King of Han from retaliating!

Elder Tang actually thought so in his heart, but seeing Wang Xian sneering silently on the side, Elder Tang hurriedly asked, "Does the military advisor have a different opinion?" ”

"King Fa, the generals' suggestions, the students dare not agree." Wang Xian said lightly: "Since we know that the King of Han will not be allowed to send troops within a month, we will seize the opportunity to attack with all our strength and strive for the greatest initiative!" How can you fear the enemy's cowardice, shrink into a turtle's shell and wait for someone to fight? This is not in the hands of the King of Han! ”

"That's the truth," Ding Gugang said with a bitter face: "But the Han Wangjun is too powerful, we can't beat it!" ”

"Yes, Prime Minister, let's take it last time, we all know that the King of Han will attack, and more than 10,000 people and horses are strictly defending Linzi City, but what is the result? Didn't you let people break into the city overnight and kill a falling flower? Another general, Song Huo'er, said with fear on his face: "The Han King's command is the army of tigers and wolves, let's just rely on the city wall to defend it, if we want to attack them, I'm afraid that we will hit the stone with an egg!" ”

"His grandmother's!" Liu Xin didn't like to listen to it, so he jumped to his feet and scolded: "Song Huo'er, you coward!" Before I even hit, I was scared into snot! If you dare to say a discouraged word again, Lao Tzu will kill you! ”

"Lao Liu, this battle is not a joke!" Song Huo'er said with a bitter face: "If we lose, we people will have no place to be buried." ”

"How dare you say it!" Liu Xin drew his fist to beat Song Huo'er, but was stopped by Wang Xian, and Liu Xin retreated angrily.

"Brother Song is right, if we lose this battle, there will be no place for us to be buried!" Wang Xian looked at everyone and said earnestly: "Everyone, at present, our Shandong is a three-legged situation, our Great Song Dynasty is one foot, the Han King is one foot, and Liu Sheng of Jinan Mansion is the other foot. It is precisely because of these three legs that Shandong will have temporary peace and quiet. ”

"You have also heard the letter of the King of Han that day, and the letter says that in a month, he will become the governor of Shandong, which means that the army of Liu Sheng, Marquis of Anyuan, will also belong to him, and the army of the King of Han and the official army will soon be merged into one! Tell me, are you willing to fight a restrained Han King now, or do you want to fight against the Han King who has multiplied his strength and monopoly in a month? ”

"This ......" the generals heard this, and their hearts said the same, and they couldn't help but hesitate.

"What's more, King Han is not afraid, we will win this battle!" Wang Xian gave a slap and said: "Because of this battle, the king of Han will be defeated in five, and our side will win in five!" ”

"What did the prime minister say about this?" Elder Tang hurriedly asked.

"The king of Han is tyrannical and cruel, and the people in the territory are full of complaints, and everyone is eager to eat his flesh and eat his bones. Le'an Prefecture is just a small land, and the terrain is flat, once the army is killed, there is no danger to defend at all, only a field battle, this is a geographical advantage, and the two will be defeated! Wang Xian shook the feather fan lightly and said eloquently: "The king of Han claims to have 100,000 soldiers, but in fact there are less than 50,000, and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled. The king of Han was demoted in an attempted rebellion, and he was suspicious of the court, and he was abandoned by hundreds of officials, and he was even more ambitious, trying to annex the soldiers and horses of the Marquis of Anyuan. The king of Han has not obtained the decree of the imperial court, and if he goes to war without authorization, he will definitely provoke criticism from the government and the opposition, and he will definitely be defeated! ”
