Raid

Chapter 275 Straw
An Huai looked at General Lang who fell on the ground, the dark red blood was reflected in his pupils, destroying the last trace of hesitation in his heart.

They ordered people to clean up the corpses, and they were worried about the remaining generals and officials in Xizhou. Border. According to my order, 1000 people rush to aid the grain road, and the other 3000 people follow me to support Wangling Pass without delay."

In Xizhou, all of Li Shengxi's confidantes left, and most of the rest were Anhuai's confidantes. When he gave an order, others naturally didn't need to think about it, and just listened to the order.

"His Royal Highness the eldest princess has always been loyal to the emperor and the country, is there a misunderstanding in this matter?" A civil servant retorted.

An Huai just glanced at him, and the next moment, he pierced his body with a long knife, killing him with one blow, and everyone was shocked.

"The eldest princess plotted rebellion, and the evidence is as solid as a mountain. If there is any doubt, you will be an accomplice and be punished." An Huai's wrist is iron and blood, and the generals are his confidantes, and they all surrender.

If civil servants refute, they are not his opponents.In desperation, he had to obey orders.

Vice-General Cao and Vice-General Yu were running fast all the way, but Vice-General Yu suddenly reined in his horse and stopped. He tightened the reins and looked back into the distance.

The forest is moving and the birds are flying, and the air of killing and cutting is endless.

Deputy General Cao showed doubts, "Deputy General Yu..."

"It seems that the comer is not kind. And I'm afraid that the situation is getting tense, and Vice-General Yang is invincible. Vice-General Cao, you go first, and I will rush to help."

Vice General Cao did not hesitate, "Okay."

"But before that, I need to ask Vice General Cao for two things to avoid future troubles."

"what?"

"The head on your neck, and this cart full of food and grass." Lieutenant Yu looked sullen, and the next moment, he waved the halberd in his hand and headed towards Vice General Cao.

Deputy General Cao was startled, but he was not as panicked and flustered as others imagined.He leaned back his whole body and dodged it.

Lieutenant General Yu raised his eyebrows, but he was not a vegetarian either, and in an instant, the two started fighting.And the soldiers behind them also divided into two groups, fighting each other.

The team brought by Deputy General Yu took out saltpeter and threw it directly on the grain and grass.Soon, a fire was ignited.

"What are you, a traitor, what are you going to do?" Deputy General Cao couldn't believe it.

Deputy General Yu was complacent, "Vice General Cao, you and I have known each other for a long time, you should know that those who know the current affairs are heroes, without food, Xu Huanzhi will be defeated, and the eldest princess is deeply trapped in the food road, relying on Wangling Pass. Surely the group will not be able to stop the Xirong people. If you catch them earlier, you may survive."

"The villain has his ambitions. You are no different from a beast when you conspire with the Xirong people. Cao has been loyal all his life, even if he is only a lieutenant general, he will never surrender to the enemy and treason." After the deputy general Cao finished speaking, he swept his spear at the lieutenant general Yu.

"I think you are stubborn!" Deputy General Yu resisted with a halberd, but because he couldn't dodge in time, he almost fell off his horse, and his halberd poked on the grain and grass closest to him.

The food and grass had not been burned, he pulled out the halberd, but saw a pile of straw being brought out by him.

Lieutenant General Yu couldn't believe it, "Straw? How could it be straw? You—you secretly exchanged food and grass?"

"It's not me." Deputy General Cao Yang Mei smiled, "Your Highness is wise and powerful, and has been guarding against you rebellious officials and thieves. How dare you use real food and grass when you guess that you are jumping over the wall in a hurry."

"Where did the real food and grass go? When was it replaced?" Deputy General Yu asked.

"Naturally go where you need to go. You talk a lot."

The next moment, Vice General Cao stopped talking nonsense with him, and started fighting with Vice General Yu again.

Vice-General Yu frowned, he didn't want to tremble with Vice-General Cao again, something has changed here, and it would definitely be of no benefit to continue fighting.He wanted to go back quickly and alert the general.

Deputy General Yu blocked his halberd and turned his horse's head to leave. Deputy General Cao did not chase, but ordered people to put out the fire.

Unexpectedly, before he took a few steps, he saw a group of people waiting for him in the distance.

"Why are you here?" Deputy General Yu couldn't believe it.

Rong Zhi sat on the horse, even in military attire, he was still a scholar.Vice General Yu knew Rong Zhi, in other words, with his face and Li Shengxi's favoritism, there was no general in Jinzhong who didn't know him.

"Naturally, His Highness asked me to punish the rebellious ministers and thieves."

"A scholar, I'm afraid you won't succeed." After the deputy general Yu finished speaking, he led his army forward to fight with him, but soon he fell behind.

Lieutenant Yu couldn't believe it, but in the next moment, he was picked off the horse and captured alive by Rong Zhi.

"how come……"

Rong Zhi glanced at him lightly, and said loudly behind his ear: "Anhuai's rebellion, the soldiers were deceived by it, Your Highness is benevolent, I give orders, and those who are captured now, can live—"

The general situation of the rebel army is gone, and they were indeed deceived by others. Later, they resisted because there was no way out. Now that Rong Zhi gave an order, since there is a way out, why should they resist stubbornly and become rebellious officials and thieves?
Moreover, whether it is the soldiers in Jinzhong or the common people, they have a natural reverence for Li Shengxi, and they are suspicious of Li Shengxi's conspiracy in their hearts.Moreover, Vice General Cao accused Vice General Yu of treason just now, and Vice General Yu never objected.Soon, the rebellion in the rear was quelled.

Deputy General Cao looked at Rong Zhi, who was captured by the Deputy General, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"The last general thought that His Highness would send Liu Jin over here, but he didn't expect it to be Rong Changshi. Although he conspired against him, his skill is really extraordinary."

He would not be too surprised if he stayed here and swung his army here, and the lieutenant general would capture him.Although Liu Jin is slender and weak, he is not as good as Wu Yang and others when it comes to martial arts.But it was also on the battlefield.If she hadn't stayed in the princess mansion wholeheartedly, otherwise she would not be inferior to him with her military achievements.

"If Liu Jin leaves, who will be in charge of the overall situation at Wangling Pass before General Ke arrives?" Rong Zhi didn't care about the vague targeting in Vice General Cao's words.

Liu Jin is not capable or outstanding, of course, for herself.Although his medical skills are not as good as Ying Xiao's, Wu Yang's martial arts is not necessary, and his agility is inferior to Yue Mingyun.But it is undeniable that she is excellent in every item, but she is not outstanding.

Although he claims to be talented and plays tricks on people's hearts, his reputation is really bad and he has no power.If he had stayed at Wangling Pass, he would have come to the grain road to help.The food road here is indeed stable, but Wangling Pass is probably in serious trouble.

Liujin is different, she has prestige and the right to speak, she is good at dancing with long sleeves, exquisite and translucent, even if she doesn't have an actual official position, she can handle it for a while.

"Actually, I'm curious, how did His Highness send hundreds of people to help you escort the food and grass without alarming others?" Deputy General Cao asked suspiciously.

General Ke was responsible for escorting the grain and grass, but long before that, General Ke had already replaced it with straw.
