Chapter 148 Convincing the General
When the city lord's mansion had just been cleaned up, the people led by Yuan Shijie, Yan Dong, and Yan Bei who went out to capture the law enforcement officers in the city returned.

"Commander, these may be the confidantes of the Xiang family, what should we do?" Yuan Shijie and his party walked into the city lord's mansion, and brought several people in. They were all bound by iron chains, and they were all kicked to the ground.

Cheng Cheng looked at the seven people on the ground, three of them buried their heads, but the four of them straightened their backs, and asked, "Who is the general of this city?"

"Me!" A man straightened his back without hesitation.

"Very good, hand over the military power in your hand, and I can spare you." Cheng Cheng said with a smile as he tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair.

"Hmph, a man is a hero in life, and a hero in death, so why should he be afraid?" I have to say that this general is a good soldier, who dares to throw his head and blood, and is not afraid of strength.

Cheng Cheng also admired this general a little bit, with a kind. : "As a general of the empire, when the empire is in crisis, you should lead your troops on the battlefield to relieve the empire from danger, but you are huddled in this Pingyang city, and dare to claim the title of hero? Your death is nothing more than a feather .”

"The army of Pingyang City is under the jurisdiction of the city lord's mansion. As long as there is no direct order from the empire, everything must obey the city lord's orders." The general said neither humble nor overbearing.

"Even if there is a transfer order from the empire, do you think Xiang Hai will carry it out? He won't. This old fox closed the gates of the city with the excuse of protecting the country and the people, just to isolate the war and see how the situation develops. He might vote one day." A traitor and treason, don't you think you will listen to his orders and treason?" At the end, Cheng Cheng almost yelled loudly.

"No, as a soldier of the empire, I will use my blood to defend the dignity of the enemy's country. If there is such a day, I will never lead my troops to surrender!" The general said sonorously and loudly.

Cheng Cheng sneered twice, before that day came, Xiang Haitie would definitely get rid of this general and seize the military power early, and he would never be given the chance to live until then.Seeing that this general is a man, he also cherishes his talents. : "Now that the Xiang family has completely fallen, Pingyang City has fallen, and it is occupied by the Qunyinghui. If you are willing to hand over the military power, you will still be appointed as the deputy army, if you insist on not, then I have no choice but to kill you and seize the military power."

The general obviously hesitated. If he died on the battlefield, he wouldn't frown. Not only would it be worthless to die at this time, but he might even bear the curse of the sinner of the ages and be spurned by others. It would be a disgrace to the soldier.Die like this is worse than a sweet potato rotten in the ground.

"You have to be clear about the current situation. This is not a rebellion against military orders, but an uprising, a hero of the empire!" Seeing the general hesitate, Cheng Cheng shouted again.

"Okay, I will hand over my military power and swear to serve the empire to the death. I will wipe out all rebellious officials and thieves and maintain the dignity of the empire." Without any further hesitation, the general roared loudly.

"Very good, what's your name?" Being able to surrender this general is more practical than killing him to seize military power, because there must be many generals in the army who still listen to him.If this general is killed, a group of confidantes must be eliminated, which he does not want to see.

"Yuan Ping!" The general replied loudly.

Cheng Cheng was slightly taken aback, and then said with a smile: "Your surname is also Yuan, good! This is General Yuan Shijie of the Xintian Department of the Qunyinghui. Since you are all in the same family, this is the best. From now on, Yuan Shijie will be the general of Pingyang City , in charge of the military affairs of the whole city, Yuan Ping is the deputy general, assisting General Yuan Shijie, do you know?"

"Yes, Commander!"

"Untie him!" Cheng Cheng asked someone to untie Yuan Ping. Without any hesitation, he handed over the military badge on his body to command the entire Ping Yangcheng army to Yuan Shijie.

Yuan Shijie's hands trembled slightly, and the excitement in his heart was beyond words when he took the military card.He mixed in the imperial army until the commander could no longer make a difference, so he agreed to Mary Lou to retire to help manage the Heroes Association. He never thought that he would become a general in such a short period of time and command more than ten thousand soldiers. He never thought about it before. Dare to think.

"Thank you, Commander!" After Yuan Shijie took the military badge, he knelt down on one knee towards Chengcheng. This young-looking man made him completely reborn, and he put Chengcheng in the highest position in his heart, and Not a cousin.

"Okay, from now on, all the military affairs of Pingyang City will be taken care of by you, and you will fight back against the traitors and ministers of the Helian family. One day, I will lead you into the imperial capital, and I will not be able to chop off the heads of these traitors. Let the people of the entire empire cast aside the city gate." Cheng Cheng said with a cold expression after getting both of them up.

"Also, although there are more than ten thousand elite soldiers in Pingyang City, these are far from enough. Once the Helian family leads troops to attack, it will be difficult to defend. We will continue to recruit new soldiers from tomorrow, and we cannot stop!" Thinking of the Helian family's current unified With 60 soldiers, Cheng Cheng felt chills in his heart, only [-] soldiers were needed to attack the city, and Pingyang City would be flattened.

"Yes!"

After finishing the important matter of the army, Cheng Cheng turned his attention to the law enforcers of the city, and said after a moment of silence: "I don't make things difficult for you, you are still the law enforcers of Pingyang City from now on, but One thing I have to tell you is that anyone who dares to contact the remnants of the Xiang family will be killed without mercy, on the contrary, if anyone knows the traces of the remnants of the Xiang family and reports them, there will be a huge reward."

"Yes, we will never dare to hide the remnants of the Xiang family. Once we find out, we will report to the city lord." One said tremblingly.

"Wrong, I'm not your city lord, but a temporary agent. When all the rebels and thieves are wiped out and the empire is unified again, the position of the city lord will eventually be one of you, and it depends on your own performance." Zhidao Chengcheng still used it to the fullest. As long as he has this temptation, he is not afraid that he will not have eyeliner to help him monitor the movements of the remaining forces of the Xiang family.

Sure enough, the people kneeling on the ground showed their eyes and declared their stance of incompatibility with the Xiang family. Who wouldn't want to be the lord of a city?

"Okay, untie them all, and let everyone go." Cheng Cheng asked people to untie them, and then let them go.

"Yan Dong, Yan Bei, the place in the City Lord's Mansion is very spacious. You and the people who lead the Heroes Association will temporarily set up a tent to live in the City Lord's Mansion, rest for one night, and resettle them tomorrow." Waiting for a group of law enforcement leaders in Pingyang City After leaving, Cheng Cheng told the two brothers of the Yan family.

"Yes, Commander!" In response, the two brothers of the Yan family went out.

After that, Cheng Cheng asked Zhu, Niu, Huo, and Pang to lead more than 20 people from Death Blade to find a wing room in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.Only Catherine and Yuan Shijie stayed.

"Shijie, the reason I'm keeping you here is to give you an order. Yuan Ping seems to be sincerely surrendering, but he has to defend himself. After you take charge of the Pingyang City army, find someone you trust and send some of the former army to the army. Replace the general, so that you can truly grasp it in your hands, do you understand?" said to Yuan Shijie who stayed behind.

Yuan Shijie nodded and said, "Army cards may not be of much use. After tomorrow, I will slowly replace a group of people. As long as the high-level people are all confidantes of the Heroes Association, Pingyang City can be truly controlled."

"Yes!" Cheng Sheng nodded, and then said, "Go and rest too!"

After Yuan Shijie left, Cheng Cheng said to Catherine: "Let's go, I slept with my brother."

"Scum, who is sleeping with you?" Catherine gave him a blank look, and walked towards the backyard of the city lord's mansion by herself.

The corner of Cheng Cheng's mouth curled up into an evil smile, he caught up with him and put his shoulders on his shoulders, and said as he walked, "There is only one wing room, if you don't sleep next to your brother, you can only sleep on the floor."

"Why is there only one wing room?" Catherine opened her mouth slightly and asked in puzzlement.

"I don't know either. The bullies and the others arranged to sleep. There is only one room." In fact, it was Cheng Cheng's intention. .

"Then I'd rather sleep on the floor than sleep with you scum." Catherine couldn't help but blushed when she thought of Cheng Cheng's frequent teasing about her shame.

"They're all big men, are you afraid that I'll eat you?" Pulling Catherine up to the rest of the room, she kicked her feet on the ground, as if she was going to drag her to the execution ground.Thinking that he had slept with him in the barracks anyway, and it would be okay to sleep another night, he followed him into the wing.
