"Instead of sitting still, let's give it a go. In the face of Niu Ziaxe's mockery and ridicule, Liu Heng replied calmly.

However, Liu Heng gave birth to such thoughts, not crazy, nor delusional, such a calm is the most awe-inspiring attitude in everyone's hearts, which shows that Liu Heng made a decision after careful consideration, not just for fun, he wants to come for real!

"General. Zhu Er's expression was complicated, and he still said softly: "Today's Ten Days City is no longer the Ten Days City of the past. ”

Liu Heng smiled again: "Then turn it back into a better Ten Days City than the original." ”

"There are Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Zuowei in the army, and Qu Ci Fang and Quzhi County in the city. The senior who has been silent all the time suddenly opened his mouth at this time.

Liu Heng couldn't help but be surprised, but when he saw that the senior was looking at him, there seemed to be a smile on his face, giving Liu Heng a feeling as if he had guessed something.

"I'm in the middle of it. Speaking again, Liu Heng patted the armrest, "There is still this position, isn't it enough?"

Ordinary cities are naturally dominated by civilian officials, but this Decameron City is a newly opened city, and it is on the front line of the confrontation between the two countries, and it is a genuine military town, and everything is mainly military affairs, supplemented by civil governance. Embodied in the Ten Days City, although Liu Heng is on the same level as Qu Cifang, but the imperial court has decided that Liu Heng is also the main one, in charge of the power of the whole city, and Qu Cifang is the auxiliary, this difference on the surface is enough to make Liu Heng in power justifiable.

Of course, the rules are like this, but in fact, it still depends on the person. For example, during the period when Liu Heng left, Liu Heng took his place in the main formation, and was silently seized by Qu Cifang and Zheng Zhilong, and he was still at a loss, which shows that Liu Heng's ability to take power is indeed inferior to the two.

Now that Liu Heng is back, he doesn't want to let the situation continue to deteriorate, so he directly makes a move, and wants to compete with Qu Cifang and Zheng Zhilong.

The senior smiled for a moment, and then put it away, "My herald is outside, ready to give orders." ”

At this moment, all eyes focused on him, because no one expected that he was the first to express support for Liu Heng.

Without waiting for the others to recover from the shock and make a decision, Uncle He immediately spoke, "General, I also want to ask, do you want to join the Liu family?"

Facing Uncle He's serious gaze, Liu Heng groaned slightly before saying: "This depends on the situation, after all, the general trend is like this, if we have to get out of the matter, it is not a good strategy to show off in the forest." But first of all, we must clear the army and the city, and then we can have enough bargaining chips to negotiate with all parties to see who has the best conditions, and then make a decision. ”

He Bo raised his eyebrows, and even Liu Heng didn't know what he meant, but he saw him smile, "Since this is the case, then my battalion of soldiers and horses will all be handed over to the general to dispose of." ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Heng, who had planned to watch coldly today no matter what, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Uncle He, with a change of expression on his face.

"No matter what Mr. Fang's intentions are, at least one thing he is not wrong about, between me and him, Uncle He is really more partial to him. Otherwise, it is also a matter of discretion, why is it that I am so angry when I say He Bo, and he is so supportive when he says it?"

He felt that Uncle He must have known that Liu Heng had quietly returned to his position, but he completely forgot that before the banquet, Uncle He was surprised by a little abnormality. can only say that he has a thought in his heart, no matter how he looks at it, he will feel wrong, and even make him unable to think about the difference normally.

In the past, he said that he would make a decision, but he had already been biased, ignoring how dangerous the situation was now, and wanted to agree to the conditions of the Liu family, seeing that he was going to send himself and the Nuo family business into the abyss step by step, how could He Bo not be angry?

At this moment, Liu Heng is different, he is also deliberate, but he said that he must first stabilize the interior, and then go to discuss with all parties, and he is not biased, just to strive for the best conditions, which is a wise move.

It can be said that the reason for He Bo's two attitudes is not people, but two ways of doing things, but Liu Heng can't understand it after all because he has a mustard.

In an instant, the two of them turned against each other, especially since both of them were people with great power in their hands, which completely shook the secret resolution of the eight people to "advance and retreat together". When the other six people hesitated, Huang Rushi smiled and said: "General, I am no longer in the army now, and I really can't talk about this matter, why don't you let me go back to my room to sober up first?"

Although he doesn't talk much, he has never occupied power in the army, and now he has completely left the army and become the head of the city, and he has been like a marginal person since he joined the gang, but it does not mean that he is stupid. As a descendant of the Gong family, he has always been a first-class smart person in the world, and it is particularly wise to say that he wants to leave at this moment.

First, as he said, he is not in the army, so he naturally knows as little about the changes as possible, and the faster he exits, the better he can protect himself. Second, although he said that he wanted to leave, he didn't say that he would leave the General's Mansion, but said "going back to the room", which was even smarter. He is very aware of his own situation, and he has been involved, in case the news leaks out, and the general will not let him out of the mansion.

"Mr. Huang, you've worked hard all these years, so let's go and rest early. Liu Heng has always been polite to Huang Rushi, and now it is the same, which made Huang Rushi flash a touch of surprise on his face, and he left the scene with a thoughtful face.

Everyone can feel that the direction of the wind has changed imperceptibly as time passes.

Zhu Er's expression kept changing, and it seemed that it was difficult to make a choice, "General, if the world is really as chaotic as you say, it will be even more chaotic in the future, if you return to power, do you dare to guarantee our safety?"

"I don't dare to make any promises, because no one will dare to make such promises in the future. Liu Heng replied very seriously, without the slightest intention of perfunctory or deception, "The only thing I dare to guarantee is that I will do my best to protect this city, because the people I care about are here, and this guarantee is definitely more sincere than the promise given to you by any other party." ”

What Zhu Er said was very practical, but Liu Heng sincerely appreciated it, because Zhu Er is obviously more mature now. What she thinks about is not only herself, but also the safety of those men, women and children in the original six caves and eighteen villages, and the difference between them can see how much she has grown in recent years.

Hearing this, Zhu Er frowned at first, and gradually her eyebrows relaxed, "Maybe it's an illusion, I seem to see that the great general who built the Ten Days City back then has returned, which makes me want to believe you once." ”

Another defector has appeared!

For the remaining five people, Bai Mingze, Du Suji, Lu Chi, Huang An, and Niu Ziaxe, the pressure is getting bigger and bigger.

Liu Heng was observant, and saw Bai Mingze faintly glancing at the senior, questioning, but the senior did not respond, but only bowed his head slightly, making Bai Mingze squint slightly, and said: "There is no problem on the military quartermaster's side." ”

Bai Mingze was as concise as ever, but like his senior year, what he said was very reassuring. In fact, Liu Heng felt a long time ago that these two people were silent on the surface, and they didn't communicate much on weekdays, but secretly they seemed to have an unknown friendship.

At this time, only four people did not express their position, and they were still insisting or hesitating.

Huang An and Du Suji looked at each other, and then Huang An took a deep breath, did not shy away from everyone, and even asked Liu Heng in public: "Do you remember Han Zhong and Zhao Lai who died in battle?"

When he mentioned these two people, of course Liu Heng still remembered, but he only heard Liu Heng mention it once how he died in battle, and he didn't care much about it at the time, but when he heard Huang An solemnly mention it at this moment, he immediately felt the problem.

Could there be something strange about the deaths of these two men?

As soon as he thought of this, Liu Heng secretly glanced at Liu Heng, but when he saw him standing on the side of the table with a cold face, he finally sighed in his heart, and nodded at Huang An and Du Suji.

"I have mentioned it to the general more than once, but the general always says that I think too much, but I still say the same thing, and I still suspect that Han Zhong and Zhao Lai were framed and died!" Huang An looked solemn and said: "Don't say anything else, as long as the general agrees, investigate this matter and find out the real culprit to punish it severely, I and Du Su will only look forward to the general this time!"

Although Liu Heng said that he expected it when he heard the beginning, after listening to it, his heart was still shaken. In the past, Huang An, Du Suji, Han Zhong and Zhao Lai were all deputy members of each regiment, and after going out on the expedition, they got on Liu Heng's chariot under the impact of Hu Cai.

It's just that the situation is unclear, Liu Heng doesn't know if there is something strange behind the deaths of Han Zhong and Zhao Lai, and he hesitates for a while.

"General, since we have joined the army, we are all ready to die on the battlefield and shroud in horse leather for a long time. If the two of them were indeed killed in battle, we wouldn't say more than half a word, but this matter is full of doubts, and they ...... What an injustice to die!" Speaking of this, there were tears in the eyes of iron-clad men like Huang An, which moved Liu Heng, "If the general still doesn't think so, then he will kill us, and we don't want to let the two of them die so aggrieved!"

Originally, Liu Heng felt strange, before he left, even if Niu Ziaxe still had some ideas, the other generals respected him wholeheartedly, how could he have only been seen for two or three years, and he had already been centrifuged to such an extent?

Now, he felt as if he had grasped the key.

"My brother is so surrendered to death, I don't even take it seriously, no wonder you are chilled by this. Liu Heng sighed, and then didn't care about Liu Heng's face, got up and hugged his fists at everyone, "It seems that in the past two years, I have been blinded by worldly miscellaneous things, and I am really a bit of a bastard." ”

"It's all my fault. Without waiting for everyone to respond, Liu Heng bowed deeply to everyone, "After sorting out the matter in front of me, I will personally go to the graves of the two old brothers to hang their letters and guard the tombs for them for three days to repent." ”

Huang An and Du Suji were both physically and mentally shocked, they didn't expect Liu Heng to make such a statement, but when they thought of Liu Heng's "great ambition", they were a little disheartened.

Come to think of it, people have been dead for two years, the general ignores them, and often reprimands them for having nothing to do, and now when something happens, their attitude immediately changes dramatically, can this statement make them really believe it?

"The past is gone, I say no matter how much it is, it's useless, for the sake of the present, it is to set a rule. Liu Heng said solemnly: "From now on, every soldier who dies in battle needs everyone to determine the cause of death, but if anyone doubts it, it must be strictly investigated and investigated, and one is accurate." If there is no mistake, if there is a mistake, or if it is certain that someone has framed him, then no matter who the murderer is, the whole army will not share the sky with him!"

Everyone was shocked, and before they came back to their senses, Liu Heng had already continued to speak.

"This rule will be written into Wan Yuwei's own military regulations in the future, and anyone who does not comply with it will be severely punished!

Liu Heng looked at the stunned crowd and said in a deep voice: "This rule will be implemented starting from the case of Han Zhong and Zhao Lai's unjust death, Du Suji and Huang An. ”

Hearing the name, the two of them subconsciously clasped their fists and got up, and at the same time should drink, "Humble duty!"

"After tomorrow, you will temporarily revoke the military power, hand over the adjutant to lead the troops, and take over the power of overseer, so that the whole army will be strictly investigated in this case, and there will be no cap, and this case will be investigated!"

Not to mention that everyone was shocked and stunned, the two of them also stood on the spot, and then woke up, blushing and saying in unison.

Liu Heng said it very bluntly, they wouldn't not understand, this was tantamount to directly depriving them of their military powers, and letting them investigate an old case that they didn't know when it would be closed, to put it more seriously, if they were deprived of their military rights forever. This has to be changed to something else, the two of them will be furious when they hear it, and they will disobey their orders to the death, and they will never deprive themselves of their military power so easily, but in this matter, they will not only gladly accept the order, but also be grateful to Liu Heng for fulfilling them.

Because the facts have been bothering them for too long, they can't get an answer, and they can't sleep well, so they don't care even if they give up their military power.

"Hey, hey, old cow, don't be there with a cold face, hurry up!" Lu Chi smiled and said: "I have always only listened to the general anyway, and the big guys are waiting for you to make a statement, hurry up, don't let everyone wait for a long time." ”

Compared with Niu Ziaxe, Liu Heng is more concerned about this recklessness, don't look at him as the most refreshing, but it makes Liu Heng feel the most untrustworthy. Other people have their own worries and reasons, which is normal, but Lu Chi has no considerations of his own?

Liu Heng didn't believe it, he didn't know what to say, and he promised so happily that Liu Heng couldn't doubt him. However, at this time, Liu Heng did not point it out, let him pass the test in confusion, and looked at Niu Ziaxe with everyone.

The ox sank like water from the axe, did not speak for a long time, and then strode to the table and picked up the wine glass, looked at it and threw it directly, grabbed the wine jar directly, and drank it with his head up.

Syllable!

There was another crunch, the sound of the jar smashing on the ground.

"Niang Xipi!"

It was Niu Ziaxe's voice scolding for some reason, he wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and glared at Liu Heng fiercely, "You guy, you have been a god statue in the temple for so many years, isn't it hello to me, and everyone is good? Why do you have to change back to the original ghost appearance?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, everyone thinks that you are addicted to being a god idol, including Lao Tzu! Everyone is forced by you to have to find another way, find a backer, you are good, once you say that you don't want to be a god idol, you have to be the guy who dominates the power again, it! Who are you when you are you?"
