Chapter 942: Saving people under the knife

 "Cao Dan, do you want to rebel? Mr. Xiao is not here, and the commander of the Wei capital has the right to take over the military camp. What qualifications do you have to stop him here?"

In the military tent, the commander-in-chief Ren Xing loudly rebuked Cao Dan.

Cao Dan did not refute or answer the question.

On the main seat, Wei Hongcai looked expressionlessly at the generals below who were bowing their heads like Cao Dan and said nothing. Although his expression was relatively calm, he was already very angry in his heart.

Of course, the person he was most annoyed with was Xiao Yeyang.

He did not expect that Xiao Yeyang's methods were so powerful that he could subdue all the border army generals in less than two years.

In the past, when others came, these generals would take the initiative to move closer.

And now?

He has been here for three or four days, and not only has no general taken the initiative to pay him a visit, but even if he sent people to invite him, all of them looked reluctant.

Wei Hongcai took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.

At this moment, he clearly realized that Xiliang was getting out of his control little by little.

Xiao Yeyang first took away the military power of the border army, and when the war with Xiliao calmed down, will he start to intervene in the affairs of the general command department?

Fortunately, Yelu Kangda lived up to his expectations and led Xiao Yeyang to the Death Swamp.

As long as Xiao Yeyang dies, he and the Wei family behind him will have the final say in Xiliang.

Seeing that Ren Xing was still reprimanding Cao Dan, Wei Hong spoke: "Okay, let's not talk about these useless things." After saying that, he stood up and looked at Cao Dan with sharp eyes.

"As the commander of Xiliang City, I have the responsibility to be in charge of the border troops. With Master Xiao absent, I am now fully in charge of Xinxi Town."

Seeing that Cao Dan was about to speak, he interrupted directly: "I have not discussed with you, and there is no need to ask for your opinions. The only thing you have to do is to obey orders."

"Okay, let's stop talking about today's matters. You can go down."

Cao Dan tried several times to find a chance to speak, but was blocked by Ren Xing. In the end, he could only leave the military tent with an unwilling look.

When the other generals saw it, they didn't say anything and left one after another.

After everyone left, Wei Hongcai sneered: "I really underestimated Xiao Yeyang. He subdued a loyal dog in such a short time!"

Ren Xing said with a smile: "Xiao Yeyang can't come back anyway. After a while, I can just find some excuse to remove Cao Dan from his position."

Wei Hongcai said calmly: "Cao Dan is just a trivial matter. The most urgent task now is to cease the war with Xiliao."

Ren Xing: "Hasn't your Excellency already reported the difficulties in Xiliang to the imperial court? Winter is coming soon, and the army has no supplies and cannot fight. I think the imperial court will approve it soon."

Wei Hongcai didn't say anything. It was not difficult to cease the war. The difficulty was that he had an agreement with Yelu Kangda.

Yelu Kangda helped get rid of Xiao Yeyang, and he tried to cede Ganzhou Guard to Xiliao.

Nowadays, Daxia wins most of the wars between Daxia and Xiliao. Even if Xiao Yeyang is gone, Xiliao will not get any advantage.

Under such circumstances, there is no way to cede the land!

After a moment of silence, Wei Hong suddenly looked at Ren Xing: "Xiao Yeyang found a master who is from the Wang family, did you know?"

Ren Xing nodded.

Wei Hongcai smiled and said: "When dealing with the Wang family, your Ren family was the most aggressive..."

Ren Xing immediately said coldly: "Now that Xiao Yeyang is gone, I can take him down with just one order."

Wei Hongcai shook his head: "You can't do things so haphazardly. You should have seen in the past few days that Xiao Yeyang is good at training troops."

"The soldiers in the military town are very united now. If you arrest Master Wang for no reason, I'm afraid you will be dissatisfied. This will not be conducive to our control of the army."

Ren Xing frowned: "What should we do?"

Wei Hongcai smiled, let Ren Xing get closer, and then whispered a plan to him.

After Ren Xing heard this, he immediately clapped his hands and applauded.

The next day, the soldiers fighting with the Xiliao army suffered from diarrhea on the battlefield. As a result, the soldiers of Daxia suffered heavy casualties in this battle.

As soon as the battle ended, Ren Xing led his men with murderous intent to tie up Master Wang.

The crime was that there was croton in the soldiers' meals, and Master Wang was responsible for the failure of this war.

Cao Dan and Su Hong believed it or not and tried their best to prove that it was not Master Wang's fault. Unfortunately, they still could not prevent Master Wang from being arrested.

Ren Xing not only captured Master Wang, but also took him outside the city gate, preparing to kill him directly.

......

Execution platform.

Master Wang was pressed to the ground with a face full of defeat, his eyes full of unwillingness and regret. He did not expect that he would not be able to escape the persecution of the Wei family in the end.

Mr. Xiao...

At this moment, Master Wang regretted extremely. He should not have dissuaded Mr. Xiao. If something happened to Mr. Xiao, who would change Xiliang in the future?

Mr. Xiao, you must come back safely!

On the city wall, the execution platform was crowded with onlookers. Although Ren Xing gave the reason for killing Master Wang, most of the soldiers did not believe it.

You know, the logistics of the army have always been managed by Master Wang, and before this, there had never been any mistakes.

Even if some people believe it, they still feel that Mr. Wang’s crime is not worthy of death.

"Sir, Mr. Wang's crime is not worthy of death. Please let Mr. Wang go."

"Please sir, please let Master Wang go."

When Ren Xing saw all the soldiers pleading for Master Wang, he felt a little annoyed and worried that things had changed, so he quickly waved his hand for the executioner to carry out the execution.

When Daohua and Gu Jian approached the military town, they happened to see the executioner raising his knife and preparing to chop Master Wang.

"Dongli!"

As soon as Daohua spoke, Dong Li threw out the scabbard in his hand, knocking away the knife from the executioner's hand. Then, Dong Li flew over, kicked the executioner away, and helped Mr. Wang up.

"Where did Xiaoxiao come from? He is so brave and dares to interfere in military affairs."

Ren Xing became furious, drew out his knife and started to kill Dongli.

Unfortunately, his strength was too low, and he was beaten to the ground by Dongli within a few moves.

"Come here, arrest this person for me!"

Ren Xing was helped up by his subordinates, vomited a mouthful of blood, and then asked his subordinates to grab Dongli.

"Let me see who dares!"

Daohua carried the curtain and helped Gu Jian walk over.

When Ren Xing saw Gu Jian and Dao Hua, he didn't take them seriously at all: "Come here, arrest all these people who came to the army to cause trouble."

Caiju shouted loudly: "How dare you, the prince and concubine of Prince Heping's palace are here, you must not be rude, why don't you hurry up and salute."

As soon as these words came out, the already noisy scene suddenly became quiet. Even Ren Xing, who was shouting the loudest, fell silent.

Wei Hongcai received the news. He didn't want to show up, but he was worried that Ren Xing wouldn't handle it well, so he could only rush over: "I'm humble enough to pay homage to Duke Fu, and to pay homage to the Crown Princess."

Gu Jian gave him a cold look: "Why don't you stay in Liangdu and come to the military camp?"

Wei Hongcai said quickly: "I heard that Mr. Xiao is missing..."

Daohua interrupted him directly: "Master Wei, please be careful. My son is the commander-in-chief of the First Army, and it is now the time when Daxia and Xiliao are fighting. If you say that he is missing, you are shaking the morale of the army."

The cold and sharp words made Wei Hongcai stunned for a moment, and he quickly raised his eyes to look at Daohua.

It's a pity that the rice flowers were covered with curtains and nothing was seen.

Daohua was extremely disgusted with the commander-in-chief and continued: "Master Wei, my eldest son has clearly gone out to chase the enemy. How come he is missing when we get to you? Could it be that Mr. Wei is hoping that my eldest son will not come back?"

?"

Wei Hongcai was annoyed in his heart, but he couldn't help but smile: "The imperial concubine is joking, how could a humble official think so."

Gu Jian snorted: "It's best not to. Yeyang is the emperor's favorite nephew. If something happens to him here, you won't be able to escape the blame."

Wei Hongcai had begun to curse in his heart, but the person speaking was the emperor's uncle, and there were so many people around him, so he had to endure it: "Master Xiao, nothing will happen to him."

As he said that, he made an inviting gesture towards Gu Jian and Daohua.

"Please also ask the Duke of Fu and the Crown Princess to move into the city."

Daohua refused directly: "Thank you, Mr. Wei, for your kindness. The military town is an important military area. How dare we enter and exit at will? I just happened to meet many enthusiastic people along the way. The people gave me a lot of things, and I used those things to build a building outside the city."

Tent."

Hearing this, Wei Hongcai suddenly frowned.

First, he heard that Daohua and Gu Jian would not leave in a short time; second, when Duke Fu and Princess Xiao came here, other people knew that even if he wanted to do something, he couldn't do it now.

Daohua looked at Wei Hongcai's gloomy face with cold eyes.

She knew that the Wei family was very powerful in Xiliang, so for the sake of safety, she came all the way. Not only did she not hide her itinerary, she actually kept a high profile.
