I'm dressed as the villain of the novel

Chapter 242 Both sides feel cheated
Zheng Hong was frothing as he spoke, his old face flushed, but when he looked up, he found that Zhao He was looking at him like a fool.

Immediately, he realized that he had lost his composure.

Hastily bowed and cupped his hands and said: "The minister is filled with righteous indignation, lost his composure!"

Zhao He took a deep breath, looked at him with some annoyance and said, "Captain Zheng, Zhang Yuan actually has these resources in his hands, why didn't you tell me earlier?

When Gu asked you at the beginning, what is the use of Zhang Yuan's generation, how did you answer Gu?
You and others said, "Huating Hou's decayed old man is like a dead tree in the mountains. If it is fuel, it cannot be burned, if it is material, it cannot be supported." If you insist on its merits, it may be said that its appearance is acceptable. "

Zheng Hong's old face was slightly red, and he was a little embarrassed. He couldn't say that he was afraid that Zhang Yuan would steal his limelight.

And to be honest, he didn't say this, but the Lin Changli who had already hung up. He just smiled and nodded.

But at this time, Zhao He definitely disagreed.

He could only falter and say: "This is the minister's fault. He only said that he was a household dog, but he forgot that he still has some talents."

Zhao He heard what he just said was almost priceless, and now he has become "some resources".

Shaking his head, he didn't bother to say any more.

But suddenly remembered something, frowned and said: "Where did the natives under Nan Luoying come from? Which one?

Haven't all the natives in this city left? "

"This... I don't know, but seeing that there are many women among the natives, it seems that there are more Qingyun caves and other upper three caves, or there are people from the Muyi tribe."

Zheng Hong hesitated again.

Suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "I know, it must be that Yun Panpan, the demon girl in Qingyun Cave, hooked up with the emperor when she was in the city before. His Highness and his subordinates were watching outside the demon girl's house, but it was not known to everyone." Harm, I'm afraid it was also the emperor's fault!
Afterwards, the demon girl left suddenly, which also caused your highness to reprimand you for His Highness King Qi. I'm afraid that's why you came.

Tsk tsk, this emperor is so treacherous! "

In fact, needless to say, Zhao He also remembered it at this time.

But he thought more than Zhao He, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

Suddenly, he finally realized what he was worried about.

His complexion couldn't help changing, and he couldn't help but let out a low voice, "It's not good, something is going to happen to my royal father!"

"what?"

Zheng Hong was taken aback when he heard the words, and he didn't understand why he suddenly got involved with "Father King"?
Zhao He didn't have the time to explain to him.

Instead, he asked eagerly: "Lieutenant Zheng wants you to tell the truth this time, and don't say a single lie!"

"..."

Zheng Hong didn't know how to answer for a while, and wanted to say "what I have always said is the truth", but found that this sentence itself was not the truth.

In the end, he could only blushed and nodded and said: "I understand, Your Majesty, please, if I continue to speak falsely, I will not be allowed to go to the Yin Mountain after death!"

"It's serious."

Zhao He heard what he said.

Yinshan, also called Zushan, is not any mountain on the map of Daqin. According to legend, Yinshan is at the end of the earth and is the place where the dead return after death.

The ancestors and ancestors also live here.

After death, only by entering the Yin Mountain can one reunite with the spirits of the ancestors, and be protected by the gods of the Qin Dynasty, such as the heroic spirits of the ancestors and the Mother of the Yin Mountain, from the cold wind and rain.

However, if a person commits serious crimes or is ashamed of his ancestors, he cannot go to the Yin Mountains, but can only wander in the wilderness all year round, exposed to wind and rain, and suffers from having no refuge.

Moreover, they will not be able to receive sacrifices from their descendants.

Lack of clothing and food.

One can imagine how miserable it was.

Therefore, in Daqin, not being able to go to the Yin Mountain after death is a heavy oath, and being expelled from the clan is also a heavy punishment.

Even if he is as suspicious as Zhao He, after hearing what Zheng Hong said, he can no longer be suspicious.

Otherwise, Zheng Hong would turn against him immediately, and people in the world would not be able to say that Zheng Hong repeated himself.

Immediately asked solemnly: "Actually, I just want to ask Captain Zheng how many soldiers he can fight at this time."

Zheng Hong almost vomited blood when he heard the words, it’s just such a small matter, why don’t you just ask me, and I swear.

But after thinking about it carefully, he found that he was really speechless.

But even the oath has been made, so it is not good to lie anymore, and immediately said bluntly: "Return to Your Highness, if the county soldiers under the Dahuang County ruled according to the full quota, there should be 5000 people, but because Zhang Yuan repeatedly squeezed food and pay, the court often also We can't send them all out, so we can't support so many soldiers at all.

In fact, there are about 3000 people, and they are sent to various counties and passes. The more one village, the more half villages vary. Today, there are less than 2000 people in Dahuang City.

And some old soldiers among them can only be regarded as post soldiers, or they are stationed in fields and guarding valleys.

There are about 500 capable fighters left. "

Zhao He couldn't help but turn dark when he heard this.

He knew that there were many vacancies for soldiers in the counties, but he never thought that the vacancies were so empty.

5000 people, you have been talking about it for a long time, and the result is only 500 people.

Just like you, you can swear.

But now there is no other way, so I can only ask: "Then, have you gathered these four thousand four hundred and five hundred people?"

After finishing speaking, Zheng Hong said awkwardly: "Your Highness, haven't you finished yet?
The ones I mentioned were soldiers under the rule of Dahuang County, but not all the soldiers in the county were under the command of the minister, and some of the four governors also belonged to them.

There are also more than a hundred people guarding the Sheriff's Mansion.

There are also some private soldiers who are originally powerful and powerful, and are sent in the county.

so……"

"That's why, it's still the same, it's all like this, is there anyone else?" Zhao He Hanyang was not bad, but at this moment he was finally angry.

You have only 500 people under a county captain, and there is still water, why don't you die?

Zheng Hong was also embarrassed for a while, and could only make amends with a smile: "There are, there are, and there are eight hundred, all of which are elite soldiers capable of fighting!"

"Eight hundred?"

Zhao He laughed back angrily, "Captain Zheng, at the banquet earlier, did you say that you have thousands of elite soldiers under your command?"

"This, yes or no, isn't it scattered in other counties and passes, and this Dahuang County is not a Dahuang City."

Then he smiled and asked, "Your Highness, shall we fight?"

"Nonsense, of course you have to fight, why don't you fight for a long time..."

Zhao He is indeed a bit angry. This Zheng Hong really didn't tell the truth before. He said there were thousands of them before, but now there are only a few hundred left.

Had he known this earlier, he would not have really let his soldiers leave.

However, he quickly became concerned, and said with a cold face: "In this case, let's fight Zhang Yuan while they are fighting, and rescue the four postal governors and the tyrants.

Didn't you say that the four postal supervisors of the soldiers and soldiers in the county also belong to it?This should be able to gather 500 people, right? "

"Ah ~ um."

Zheng Hong couldn't help but stumbled when he heard the words.

Heart said, who knows?
Besides, what about your Highness?

But he had just sworn not to tell lies.

It's hard to say, what I said just now is not reliable, I can only hope that there are enough private soldiers raised by the four postal governors and the tyrants everywhere.

But Zhao He didn't know what was going on in his heart, and he wanted to speak again, but the door behind him opened, and Wang's servant hurried out from inside with a pale face.

Zhao He paused, and then remembered that there was a Mr. Shadow in the room behind him.

Seeing the look on the servant's face, he knew something was wrong, so it was not good to say more in front of Zheng Hong, and he said directly to Zheng Hong, "Wait a moment, I will think about it."

"Good good."

Zheng Hong said in a hurry.

But secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
