Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 509
On the training ground of the Northwest Frontier Army camp, Ye Chen sat calmly on a chair, looking at the officers and soldiers below from the high platform.The faces of the officers and soldiers were different, either excited or resentful or fearful.But some people looked at the imperial envoy and the senior generals of the Northwest Frontier Army with flickering eyes.

Most of the officers and soldiers of the Northwest Battalion already knew what happened last night. The provocative tactics arranged by the Holy Church in the army played a role. Some lower-level soldiers and officers thought that it was people from the Huaxia Weifu who killed their general Murong Yanzhao .But the same preventive measures that Huaxia Weifu arranged in advance in the army also played a role, and many people thought that Huaxia Weifu would not do such a thing.

In fact, the temple instigated about [-] officers and soldiers, and wanted to besiege Ye Chen when Ye Chen and his party appeared, but the generals of the Northwest Frontier Army who followed Ye Chen stepped forward and scolded, and the problem was easily dismissed. solve.Now it is Ye Chen who wants to find out those people who are arranged by the temple to incite the officers and soldiers.

Ye Chen looked calm and looked at the crowds of people in the audience. Except for the garrisons in the military forts and castles on the northwest border, there were about [-] troops here. So far and so wide.

Although the mood of the soldiers in the stands was slightly unstable, it was obvious that there would be no major problems. Of course, this was the secret work of the Xifu led by Huang Louping and the intelligence department pretending to be a supervising army all night.Just now Hu Sanguang and Huang Louping reported to him that last night people from Xifu even organized several assassinations, beheading two low-level officers who instigated the army.

No matter what these soldiers think in their hearts, whether they believe that it was the people from the Huaxia Weifu who killed Murong Yanzhao, but although Murong Yanzhao has a high prestige, he is dead after all. Already lying down, no one to take the lead, no matter how bloody these soldiers are, it is impossible to do anything, Huang Louping is right, he overestimated the dangers of the Northwest Frontier Army, but he missed that the Holy Church is outside the Northwest Frontier Army other arrangements.

Ye Chen left the chair, walked to the front of the stage, looked at the tens of thousands of officers and soldiers under the stage, and said gently: "This official is Ye Chen, and he came here by order."

He is not Murong Yanzhao, he has a very high prestige in the Northwest Frontier Army, so he does not have the ability to make the audience fall into silence with his eyes, but his words contained a trace of the pure Taiyi Qi in his body, and it spread quickly Go, the sound resounded throughout the playground, making those officers and soldiers stunned for a moment.

In this gap, Ye Chen started the article titled: "General Murong Yanzhao was assassinated last night."

There was an uproar in the audience, although most people had heard the news before, but at this time the imperial envoy personally said it, everyone couldn't help discussing it, and some people were even shocked.

Ye Chen looked at the officers and soldiers under the stage, and said slowly: "The general has been stationed in the northwest of the Song Dynasty all year round, subdued the eight departments of the party, guarded one side for the country, willing to be in a difficult place, and is actually a pillar of the country. Every time your majesty discusses it, he will admire it. The great general's meritorious service is in the country, and his loyalty is commendable."

The officers and soldiers under the stage gradually quieted down, looking at the stage full of doubts, none of them understood what the imperial envoy said.

With a trace of heavy on Ye Chen's face, he said quietly: "The sky has no eyes, unexpectedly the general was assassinated by the thieves, who are the vicious people who dare to do such evil deeds!"

His voice gradually became higher, full of anger, and his eyes were full of sternness, as if he wanted to find the so-called real culprit among the tens of thousands of officers and soldiers in the audience.

A gust of cold wind blew over, making Ye Chen's cheeks icy cold. He looked coldly at the crowd of soldiers under the stage, but his heart gradually calmed down.

The most critical and dangerous time to deal with the Northwest Camp was actually last night. By daytime, the most dangerous time had passed, and he didn't have anything to worry about.

Ye Chen's voice was carried far away in the vast playground. He was just gently and sadly recalling the great achievements Murong Yanzhao, the commander of the Northwest Camp, had made for Song. , Naturally, nothing related to the Holy Church will be mentioned.

Wang Baoxing and the two commanders who were told part of the truth by Ye Chen looked at each other, then turned their heads slowly.Ye Chen had to selectively tell the middle and senior generals of the Northwest Frontier Army to know some facts, otherwise, under mutual suspicion, the morale of the army would be shaken to some extent.If Li Guangrui of Xiazhou did not have any changes, he would not need to say much. When the next commander of the Northwest Camp arrives, he will step by step use means to unify the morale of the army.But now at this juncture, there must be no mutual suspicion within the Northwest Camp.

A senior member of the first rank, an important minister of the military, and the commander-in-chief of a large army, but an elder of the outer sect of a folk force, once this fact spreads all over the world, where will the emperor of the Song Dynasty and the court be put in the face?What's more, the matter of the holy church is so complicated and unimaginable, so no matter what the real reason is, it must never be appealed to the public.

Whether it is His Majesty the Emperor or Ye Chen, what they want is the stability of the Northwest camp and even the Northwest. As for the moral evaluation after Murong Yanzhao's death, the Emperor Song and Ye Chen don't really care much. That's the first task.What's more, the compliments Ye Chen said now, with Murong Yanzhao's credit, ability, and loyalty to His Majesty and the court, Ye Chen did not lie.

Of course, neither Ye Chen nor His Majesty the Emperor can swallow this bad breath. After a few days, the situation in the northwest will be settled. Ye Chen will naturally want to sort out and suppress the hidden forces of the temple in the northwest. .

After a pass of praise.Ye Chen's face gradually became as cold as a stone in sea water, and his face was already solemn and dead.

"I first arrived in Qingzhou last night. I wanted to discuss with the general about comforting the army. Who would have known that the general was assassinated? And after the incident, someone secretly stirred up the morale of the army last night, intending to rebel. Obviously Some people have ulterior motives and were bought by the party members. If there is any change in the party members in the past two days, then it can be confirmed. But before that, it is necessary to find these people. "

There was indeed a change in the Northwest camp last night, and rumors have been circulating, but until today the imperial envoy on the high platform talked about it in detail.Only then did the officers and soldiers of the Northwest Camp know that there was a conspiracy by the Party members behind this, and that someone in the Northwest Camp had colluded with the Party members.

Naturally, not everyone believed it, at least the hidden people in the temple would not believe it, so the soldiers in the field gradually became noisy, and some people began to shout: "Where is General Li Yanqun? Where is General Li!"

Someone shouted again: "How can the party members have such courage?"

The crowd was furious, and some soldiers were incited and gradually crowded towards the front of the high platform.

Ye Chen's face was calm, and he smiled slightly. He mobilized the crowd, gathered everyone together, and said so many words, in addition to giving Murong Yanzhao's death a reasonable reason to stabilize the morale of the army, he also wanted to inspire Those shadows from the temple jumped out on their own initiative, and now everything is developing according to plan, those people will jump out soon.

Huang Louping winked at the people he had arranged in the audience, and the school officers among the soldiers rolled their eyes and began to shout loudly: "Revenge for the general! Kill that bastard."

Tens of thousands of soldiers did not know who the dog day was, but such a shout fit the atmosphere of grief and repression of the officers and soldiers of the Northwest Camp, so gradually the shouts merged into one, and the sound shook the sea and the sky, but intentionally or unintentionally , Suppressing the selection of those generals in the army who were unwilling to be bound to death with evil intentions.

Ye Chenping raised his hands, pressed them slightly, and said with a gloomy expression: "The principal criminals of those insane criminals were captured last night. After the case is over, the canonical punishment will be given to pay homage to the great general's spirit in heaven."

"Who is it?" The officers and soldiers of the Northwest Battalion looked at each other, all guessing who in the army had such courage. Seeing that there were fewer generals on the high platform than before, some smart people gradually guessed a little. .

Sure enough, the names of the few people Ye Chen read next were all the generals in the Northwest camp who had a high status in the past, and Li Yanqun's name was impressively listed at the top.

The voice above the high platform told the 3 people very clearly that it was these generals in the Northwest Camp who were the main culprits who assassinated the general.

While speaking, five generals covered in blood were escorted up from the right back of the stage. These were Li Yanqun and the two generals who attacked Ye Chen in the general's mansion last night, and the one who dared not eat Ye Chen behind. The two commanders who exposed themselves to the antidote were all commanders.At this time, the five people's faces were pale and depressed, and they knelt directly in front of Ye Chen. They didn't know what method the Huaxia Weifu Intelligence Department used. Although these people had vicious expressions on their faces, they couldn't open their mouths at all. Call for injustice.

The [-] soldiers in the audience quieted down at the same time, watching the scene on the stage with extremely complicated eyes, watching the five generals who are usually high above the ground, kneeling in front of their eyes, their heads drooping, their hair curly blood Not flying, very miserable.

Deadly quiet, Ye Chen watched this scene with his hands behind his back, waiting for someone to jump out.

Sure enough, a sharp shout suddenly came out from among the quiet soldiers: "The general was killed by those people on the stage! It was done by the people from the Huaxia Weifu! General Li was wronged!"

Anzi from the holy hall would naturally not be willing to just watch things continue according to Ye Chen's arrangement.With this cry.Immediately, several voices yelled out again, full of anger and hatred, targeting Ye Chen and the rest of the general officials on the stage.
