Brutal touch

Chapter 27 Discussing the king’s orders in the small building near the pond, and discussing the art of war in the barbarian tent

Li Sheng took Tong Ma into the palace, and took the path in the backyard to a small building by the pond in the backyard. It was usually the place where King Chu read. Because the place was narrower and therefore warmer, it was often used as a place where there were few people in winter. A place for meetings.

Tongma followed Lisheng to Linchi's small building. When he went up to the second floor, he saw Huan Chaosheng, the second, fifth, and sixth masters already sitting there, but there was no King Hu. Tongma thought to himself: "Sixth Young Master is in charge of the Law Enforcement Palace, so it is natural to come here to discuss this kind of matter. As for why the Fifth Young Master is here, if the Protector Palace wants to arrest those outside the palace, there is no need to come here. Discussion, I think the Fifth Young Master is here because of other things. Most of these people did such things because the Fifth Young Master was instigated. But when the Second Young Master was invited by the King, I don’t know at all."

Chaosheng saw Kirima coming and said, "Master Kiruma, please sit down. Lord Kiruma must have seen what happened outside the palace. The king ordered us to discuss an idea here and then report it to the king." "

After hearing what Huan Chaosheng said, Tongma naturally sat down. He thought that this matter had arisen from the Military Temple after all, and he should say something first in this position. Just as he was about to speak, Huan Chaosheng stood up and said: "Outside the palace Although those people have done some unsavory things in the past, after all, they are not vague people when it comes to major matters that touch the country. No matter how bad they are, they will not do it to this extent." After saying this, he looked at it for five seconds. The young master glanced at him and said: "Second Young Master, Fifth Young Master, Sixth Young Master, whoever of you is making trouble secretly, please advise them to go back."

Seeing that the three young masters were silent, Huan Chaosheng said again: "Of course, there is no point in discussing this matter now, but this group of people cannot always gather outside the palace gate. After all, it is an eyesore. Your Majesty's I can’t live with my face, so you all must make up your mind as soon as possible on this matter.”

The Sixth Young Master stood up and said: "According to the rules of the Law Enforcement Hall, this group of people are making false accusations. According to the law, false accusations should be reversed. In other words, whatever crime they falsely accused the Fourth Young Master, then the Law Enforcement Hall should sentence them to the crime."

The second young master stood up and said, "According to your opinion, these people outside the door have become capital offenders, and they should all be handed over to your law enforcement hall to be executed?"

The Sixth Young Master said: "They falsely accused the Fourth Young Master with the death penalty. Didn't they also want to kill the Fourth Young Master? Why did they refuse to die on their own heads? Besides, the rule of false accusations and false accusations was not made today. It has been like this since ancient times." I’ve never heard anyone say it’s wrong.”

Huan Chaosheng said: "You two young masters, please stop arguing. Sixth Young Master, you can follow the rules or authority. Although this should be done according to the law, firstly, these people died in the battle not long ago, and they are naturally sad in their hearts. Secondly, Most of them are here with meritorious deeds, and if we just kill them all indiscriminately, it will be difficult to convince everyone."

The Sixth Young Master said: "In that case, let's arrest the people first. According to the circumstances and their own merits, the Law Enforcement Hall will judge them one by one. This way, it will not appear to be disrespectful to the country and neglect the heroes, and it will not appear to be a child's play. Tongma Sir, what do you think?"

Seeing this situation, Tongma knew that most of these people were instigated by the Fifth Young Master, and he hated why those people were so incompetent, but thinking that they were captured by the Law Enforcement Hall, there was actually a lot of room for change, plus that The crowd really can't hang around outside the palace gate any longer. So he said: "Sixth Young Master's approach is appropriate."

Huan Chaosheng smiled and said: "Okay, since everyone has this intention, let this matter be over. I will inform the king of this intention, and the Sixth Young Master will go and get the person."

"Wait a minute!" Fifth Young Master said suddenly. Huan Chaosheng was secretly happy, and thought to himself: "I'm afraid that you kid won't speak. If you speak, it will be easier." Then he answered and said: "What other orders does the Fifth Young Master have?"

The Fifth Young Master said: "Since the Sixth Brother said those people were framed, how can the Sixth Brother prove that the words of those people outside the palace are false? How do you know that the Fourth Young Master did not deliberately use his gadgets to kill my loyal and loyal people who have violated the country? Woolen cloth?"

The Sixth Young Master said: "Don't you know whether Fourth Brother would do such a thing? Besides, according to the country's long-standing rules, the news from the border is subject to the news from the supervisory army. Now the news from the supervisory army is clearly written It was an accidental injury, what else can I say?"

The Fifth Young Master sneered: "The supervisor is himself. Of course he can write whatever he wants. And let me ask you, why did the Fourth Brother bring these things to Baiyun Peak?"

The Sixth Young Master said: "Of course it is to improve Baiyunfeng's current military affairs."

The Fifth Young Master smiled and said: "In this case, Sixth Brother, you are familiar with the laws of the country, how do I remember that there is one article, what kind of crime should it be for a person who cannot practice Qi to interfere with the military affairs of the country?"

The Sixth Young Master glared at the Fifth Young Master and stopped talking. It was against the laws of the country and anyone who could not practice Qi to interfere with the country's military and government affairs would be punished with death. Naturally, when the law was formulated, the situation of the Fourth Young Master was not thought of. He just felt that he could not do it. People who practice Qi will definitely not have the same mind as those who practice Qi, and interfering in military and government affairs will naturally have bad intentions. Therefore, there is this law. Now that the Fourth Young Master is in Baiyun Peak, he is naturally very solid. The Fifth Young Master's mention of interfering in the military affairs of the country caught the Sixth Young Master off guard.

Huansheng's face darkened, he called Lisheng over and gave some instructions. Lisheng took the order and left. The Fourth Young Master here has been rectifying military discipline and appearance in Baiyun Peak. He has dealt with many corrupt people in the name of supervising the army, and Baiyun Peak's military discipline has taken on a new look. The king's capital was restored here, and Sima was promoted to governor. The officer who was originally in the Baiyunfeng camp was promoted to Sima. Another chief officer was sent to the Baiyunfeng camp to make up for the losses caused by the previous war.

For several days, the savages only sent a few men and horses to approach Baiyun Peak as a test. The Fourth Young Master ordered to use crossbows to repel the enemy. The savages immediately escaped after experiencing a wave of crossbow arrows. The fourth young master thought to himself: "I'm afraid they don't know what we used to make them suffer last time. Now we are testing it to find out what exactly the bed crossbow is. It seems that we have to make more improvements, so they can be caught off guard." .”

On the other hand, Duoli's status in various ministries has increased since he commanded the night attack on Baiyun Peak, and the number of soldiers and horses at his disposal are several times greater than before. A few days later, I came to report: "No big shot came from Huguo. I just heard that a new supervisor was appointed. He is a prince. But that prince is a man who cannot practice Qi. It is impossible for him to do it."

Duo Li discussed with his generals: "I know a little about the customs of the country. It's unrealistic for a person who can practice Qi to pretend that he can't practice Qi. That prince should just be unable to practice Qi. It's unreasonable to let such a person be the supervisor of the army." We suffered a secret loss at this opportunity. It seems that this prince's appointment was a cover-up to the country, in order to cover up another mysterious figure who came to the Baiyun Peak camp." The generals nodded in agreement.

Duo Li added: "In the past few days, I have continuously sent investigators to Baiyun Peak to test. What they saw was the same as before, strange things, and then they fired crossbow arrows from a distance. If they were hit by the crossbow arrows, their lives would not be saved. I There are probably two possibilities. First, it was inconvenient for the mysterious man to show up, so he used a blindfold and fired these crossbow arrows from a distance to prevent others from guessing his identity. Second, the mysterious man’s The method is to refine magic weapons, and those strange things that can shoot crossbows are the magic weapons he refined."

A savage general, Long Mo, stood up and said: "We also have the means to refine magic weapons. As the saying goes, rare things are more valuable. Magic weapons are called magic weapons because they are rare. We can produce hundreds of magic weapons of this level at once. Not even the Shizhe from Huguo can do it."

Duo Li nodded and said: "Exactly, I have also tested several other strongholds in the country. Only the Baiyunfeng camp can make such a counterattack. If it is really a magic weapon, why not place it across the borders of the country? Just Hundreds of them were arranged at Baiyun Peak, but there were none in other places. So I guessed that it was a cover-up trick for the country. Without that mysterious man, these crossbow arrows could not be fired, but they were just made to look like magic weapons to push us into the ditch. Just bring it inside."

Long Mo added: "We suffered such a big loss without even being able to see that person's face. God knows if that person has any other tricks. It is really unlucky to be assigned to confront the Baiyunfeng camp by the commander-in-chief. "

Duo Li smiled and said: "Who said we are going to fight to the death in Baiyunfeng Camp? I have been sending people to test these days just to make sure that person's ability can only protect Baiyunfeng Camp. When there is a snowstorm in a few days, we will Go and attack other camps.”

The generals looked at it, looked at each other and said, "The commander-in-chief ordered us to defend here. If the enemy takes the opportunity to attack the camp, what should we do?"

Duo Li sighed and said: "I have been suffering from insomnia these days, just because I am afraid that the person with unknown means will come and kill me one day, and we will not know how we died by then. But have you ever thought about how his means are so high? Why don't you take the initiative to attack and only do passive defense? I guess this person has more than enough defensive methods but not enough offensive skills. He is here just to compete with us. Of course, this is also my personal opinion. To be honest, he will take a detour to attack the camp. I am just betting on this matter, just like the last time I attacked the camp, I feel like I can still bet correctly this time, whether you will follow me or not."

When the generals heard what Duo Li said, they all became excited and said generously: "I am willing to die for my consort!"

After the generals dispersed, Duoliliu Longmo poured himself a cup of tea and said: "What I said just now can convince them, but you must be dismissive. Now I will tell you in a way that you can understand. "

Long Mo was a little confused, and Duo Li continued: "The Huguo side thought that we would definitely attack Baiyun Peak after suffering the loss of Baiyun Peak, so they would strengthen the defense of Baiyun Peak, and the defense of other places would be weak. In addition, the Chinese people love to strive for glory. When the rest of the camp saw the gains at Baiyun Peak, they naturally couldn't hold it back. When the time comes, they will feel that the savages have gathered at Baiyun Peak, and the defenses in other places will naturally be empty. Naturally, they will want to take the initiative to attack. These days we The scouts are watching, if any of the Chuguo camp is moved, we will take advantage of it and capture it in one fell swoop. I don’t believe that there will be experts to help them this time."

Long Mo suddenly understood, took Duo Li's hand and said, "So it turns out that you were able to win the war before when you led the troops not because you said you were lucky, but because you saw these things?"

Duo Li smiled and said: "This thing is called the Art of War, but if you talk about the Art of War here, no one wants to hear it. But if you say that you were lucky to win, they will feel that God is helping you and are willing to be with you. .”

After hearing this, Long Mo said excitedly: "I am willing to serve my consort!"
