Chapter 178 Mutiny
After some rescue by military doctors, Mr. Lu was declared dead.

Zong Che sought the opinions of Mr. Lu's soldiers, and decided to ask the soldiers to send Mr. Lu to the Governor's Mansion in Fucheng the next day.

Mr. Lu has no family members, and he works alone with the Second Prince, so his funeral needs to be handled by the Governor's Mansion, which has retained the Second Prince's [-] elite soldiers.

An Xu didn't have much sympathy for Mr. Lu's experience of standing up and lying down, but felt that in this border area, a person's life is always too fragile.

But what I didn't expect was that in the middle of the night, the confidants of the second prince led by Wan Jingbian besieged the main tent.

Through the small window high for one person in the tent, An Xu saw that the torches were raging outside, and in front of the main tent were a dozen generals on horses.

Amidst the flames, the horse was a little uneasy, kicking its hooves restlessly from time to time.

This situation looks very dangerous, but just like the confrontation between the two armies, as long as the leader is solved, a crisis can be resolved.

After all, Zong Che has only been in the camp for seven or eight days, and he has never done anything to harm the interests of ordinary soldiers. Those who can sacrifice their lives to fight at such a time are those with real interests.

When the two sides were in a stalemate, Dai Ji came to try to persuade them to fight again.

He felt that he, who was in charge of supervising the general and reporting the news to the capital, did the same work as an old lady.

"General Xu, General Liu, you two," Dai Jixian caught the two at fault and said, "What do you two tell me? General Zong let you die in the afternoon, and now you are here to besiege the general? Where is the imperial court and the emperor?"

Both Xu and Liu looked a little guilty.

"If you don't want to die, you just stay on the sidelines." A yellow-skinned general stretched out a knife and stabbed Dai Ji in front of him, and then shouted inside: "General Zong, we are besieging you today, not for personal grudges, but for A justice."

As he spoke and waved his hand, a man in ragged clothes and covered in blood crawled out, crying to the sky: "I am a villager in Xiaoguo, twenty miles southeast of the barracks, and this morning, I am the so-called general of the northern camp. , took a locust to slaughter our village."

As soon as this remark came out, the people encouraged by their respective generals and teams whispered.

"What's even worse," said the general, "Mr. Lu's death was not an accident, but also caused by him."

The generals who had contacts with Mr. Lu felt that this new general was going too far.

The soldiers at the lower level were a little indifferent, after all, they were not very familiar with Mr. Lu.

"Surname Zong, why are you acting like a turtle at this time?" The people outside shouted louder, "Do you dare to come out and confront me?"

In the camp, watching Zongche open the mat, revealing the rotating flue inside and a round hole for one person to pass through, An Xu discovered that there is a very spacious basement underneath.

"Go down and hide for a while," Zong Che said.

An Xu: "Are you unsure about things outside?"

Zong Che smiled and said: "No, I just don't want you to see the bloody scene. Go down quickly, there is water and food inside, and a small bed. You can eat something before going to sleep."

The conflict between the two sides is imminent, is it really okay for you to say that?
"Dial must be them, can't they come here?" At this critical moment, An Xu didn't have time to ask him when he got this thing, let alone persuade him not to kill people.

The law of the jungle society is more clearly reflected in the military camp than in the society outside. In many cases, it is a second of hesitation, and you will die.

"They have someone to arrange." Zong Che stroked her cheek and said with a smile, "Don't worry. Maybe you haven't fallen asleep yet, so I'll call you."

An Xu looked at the smile on his face with complicated emotions.

She never thought before that Zong Che could protect her so thoroughly.

The top cover was closed so tightly that not even a little light could get in.

An Xu took the lamp beads and walked down the steps at his feet. The bottom was really spacious. There was a small bed against the wall, and there was a quilt on the small bed. There were several sealed pastries and water on the table beside it.

He opened the oil paper and smelled it. The pastry inside hadn't gone bad, and he didn't know when he put it in.

After staying for a while, I didn't feel bored at all, but felt a breeze from time to time.

An Xu was fine, and in order not to think too much, he took a lamp and looked around here, but he didn't find any ventilated place for a long time.

In the tent next door, several black-clothed guards were guarding the brothers Yan Dial and Yan Zhun. Seeing that the people outside were about to fight against his father's advice, the leader of the black-clothed guards said to the little brothers: "Dial Young master, prospective young master, if you are afraid, turn your back."

Yan Di raised his head and asked, "Why do you want to kill someone?"

The guard in black said respectfully: "Because if you don't kill others, you will kill yourself."

The young Yan Zhun suddenly said, "I want to see it."

Outside, the yellow-skinned general sneered, "Shameless boy," and drawing the knife was an order.

A piece of knife with white light was revealed under the firelight, followed by one piece after another.

However, before he could make a move, the yellow-skinned general was killed by Zong Che.

Some people flinched and some were angry, and the scene became chaotic in an instant.

Then those who thought they had the winning chance to besiege the main account discovered that many sword lights flashed from behind.

Zong Che took the people he arranged in advance, as well as some soldiers who were instigated by them, and killed them until the early morning of the next day.

Although Dai Ji knew that the change of military power was as cruel as the change of imperial power, he never thought that Zong Che, who was born as a civil servant, could arrange such a comprehensive plan.

He can kill people without blinking his eyes.

Of course, Zong Che will have psychological discomfort, but in order to live for himself and live well in the future, he can overcome these.

Those who are unwilling to be subordinated to others have to endure what ordinary people cannot bear.

Standing in the blood and fire, Zong Che's cloak fluttered behind his shoulders, with him as the center, and the corpses at his feet spread outward.

However, he didn't feel sorry at all for taking the lives of these people.

"General, thirteen guerrilla generals, twelve lieutenants, eleven generals, and five generals are all here." Ma He waded through the corpse forest and walked up to Zong Che to report.

Zong Che nodded, and then looked at the young generals below who were still alive.

Clang.

A sound of putting down a weapon was followed by two, three, four, five.

When the clang clang of the knife hit the ground, there was a loud sound.

Zong Che finally looked at Dai Ji who had been by the side and didn't participate in it. The early morning wind was slightly cold, but it made Dai Ji shiver.

He said: "I guarantee that these things will not reach the capital. I will only tell the emperor that you have gradually conquered the northern camp."

Zong Che said with a smile: "Master Dai, I will not kill you. Of course, I will not do anything to embarrass you. After all, your Dai family has deep roots in the capital. If something goes wrong with me, the person under surveillance, Your family will be very sad."

"Yes," Dai Ji said, "Master Zong is right."

As long as he doesn't rebel, it doesn't matter what method he uses to subdue the northern camp.

"But if I don't report it back, it doesn't mean that the emperor must not know." Dai Jixian picked it up for himself.

Because everyone knows that the emperor secretly has a group of secret guards who monitor the officials.

Zong Che shook off the blood beads on the sword, put it back on the sheath, and said with a smile: "That doesn't bother Mr. Dai."

"Before dawn, clean up all of these."

With that said, the person has stepped towards the main tent.

Dai Ji went back in fear, sat on the bed but didn't sleep, washed his face and changed his clothes at dawn and came out.

What he saw after he went outside made his heels even weaker.

The barracks under the sun was exactly the same as what I saw yesterday, except that the people wearing general armor who passed by occasionally changed their faces, so that people could clearly know that what happened outside the main tent last night really happened.

Dai Ji completely rested and secretly wrote another report to return to Beijing. He wanted to report the report truthfully because he was worried that Zong Che's rebellion would cause his family members in the capital to be implicated.

Moreover, he has been loyal to the emperor for more than 20 years, and he is unlikely to be able to overcome the hurdle in his heart.

But with Zongche's power gathered at some time, if he really doesn't follow what he said last night, will he be buried in the grassland the next day, and then another "he" will report to Emperor Shuntai What's going on here?

Thinking of this possibility, Dai Ji shivered violently.

When he came over, it wasn't that he didn't bring his subordinates with him, but he was a very sensible person, and he didn't want to knock an egg on a rock, only to find out that he retreated without knocking.

When he came back to his senses, he realized that before he knew it, he had reached the periphery of the barracks. At this time, a man with a notebook in his hand came over and shouted to the idle soldiers: "Get up, the governor said , Those who were named on the roster today will stay, and those who cannot be named today, get out."

"What governor?"

"It's just right to get out, I want to go home a long time ago."

He said everything, and saw the centurion with a stern face, and said: "Listen to me, starting from tomorrow, as long as the training is successful, each person will be paid two taels of silver per month. Two sets of new clothes and new shoes every season .”

Hearing this, the uproar was even greater, and those who said to leave shouted even louder: "Does what you say count?"

"Naturally, the governor keeps his word," said the centurion, who was also very energetic. As mentioned above, there will be reorganization in the future. Whoever has more elite troops under his command will be able to be promoted better in the future.

Dai Ji walked back again, and all he saw was like this.

This camp, where the second prince's personal soldiers were active before, seems to have come back to life.

It was getting cold, and the nearby herdsmen went to the city to sell things. An Xu asked the partridge to buy a big goose, and then slaughtered it.

Watching people outside keep coming in to report on work, An Xu said to Zong Che, "Is this all right?"

Is it so easy to seize power?

Zong Che said with a smile: "Do you think it will take more than ten days? Back then, Ming Zu's yellow robe was added overnight."

The Ming ancestor here is the Great Ming Tai and Emperor Zu. His experience of becoming emperor is very similar to that of Zhao Kuangyin in An Xu's history.

After An Xu learned about this period of history, he began to suspect that the person who established Daming also traveled through time, because many of his miracles are similar to this or that emperor in the official history.
