Chapter 18: Going through fire and water for His Highness
After Chen Yuanqing, the governor of Chengde Army, killed Yuan Lang with one punch, his face did not look much better, and the fear in his eyes was still as strong as the essence.
He hurriedly came to Li Ye with an indifferent expression, and bowed down when the black-faced general of Wei Bojun knelt down and robbed the ground with his head.
"The generals under his command have collided with His Highness. It is because the subordinates are not in charge of the army. Please punish him!" Chen Yuanqing's voice trembled and did not dare to look up.
The Wei Bo Army Jiedushi and the Yiwu Army Jiedushi also bowed one after another and apologized with Chen Yuanqing.
Needless to say, there are generals under his command involved in this storm; although the latter was secretly grateful, he did not dare to be careless when facing Li Ye, who was filled with anger in his eyebrows.
His generals and school did not cause trouble today, and they were not idle in the past, and they were not arrested by Li Ye. But who knows whether Li Ye would thoroughly investigate the three generals' fighting for military rations and materials because of what he saw today?
Zhang Wence is now following Li Ye. No one knows whether Zhang Wence said something he shouldn't have said to Li Ye before Li Ye appeared.
The other generals, officials and soldiers saw the three governors sank in front of Li Ye, and heard them shouting at His Highness. When they looked at Li Ye, their eyes immediately became full of surprise, fear and reverence.
Who can’t know now that the majestic young man in front of him is King An?
"Greetings to Your Highness, Prince An!" The three generals behind the Jiedushi hurriedly saluted. They were wearing armor and could not bear to bow to the ground, but they all bowed their upper bodies very low when they were marching.
"Greetings to Your Highness, Prince An!" The officials and soldiers on the periphery immediately bowed and bowed down.
"Greetings to Your Highness, Prince An!" The soldiers nearby knelt down in circles. In the blink of an eye, the people around him bowed down, and no one stood up in a hundred steps.
It’s okay to have the military soldiers a hundred steps away from the military camp, but they can’t leave their posts without permission. However, when the officials, minor officials, civilians and pedestrians in front of the county heard everyone shouting in unison, they burst into trouble, surrounded them, stretched their necks and looked here.
From a distance, I saw the only one standing tall among the crowd. First, the officials and the officials leaned over and bowed one after another. Then, the civilians and pedestrians next to them were also infected and bowed to the ground one after another.
The imperial decree did not stipulate that these people must kneel down and worship the ground, and they were too far away.
However, these Wei County officials have long been very pleased with King An because of Zhang Wence. Now they have finally seen each other and want to express their respect from the bottom of their hearts.
Those people usually praised King An because of the good government of Wei County. They were very loyal to King An. Now that they saw that all the officials of Wei County worshipped, they naturally followed him to worship.
Not long after, the large area of land in front of Wei County was full of soldiers and civilians facing the center of the circle.
Li Ye in the crowd had no expression on his face.
The king's dignity and majesty are revealed.
From this we can also see how popular Li Ye has in his jurisdiction.
If Guo Pu and Zhang Zhongsheng saw this scene, he would not know what expressions these two people would have.
Accepting everyone's worship, Li Ye's face was not visible at all. He did not even let everyone in front of him stand up, and looked at Chen Yuanqing and other three military governors indifferently. The voice was not warm when he spoke.
He said, "I heard that the three towns in Hebei have always been rebellious, and the soldiers of the three armies have been arrogant and fierce. In the past, the king of Gu still didn't believe it. After pacifying Hedong, he went to Chengde and Yiwu towns. Gu Wang also thought that you were still loyal to the dynasty and that everyone from all over the country had the idea of serving the country. However, looking at it today, Gu Wang was very disappointed."
With a sneer, Li Ye continued: "I haven't seen you go to war before, but I don't know. Now that you are on the battlefield, you dare to beat local officials and force military rations and supplies! What do you mean by such behavior? When you really fight on the battlefield, don't say that you hope you will fight bravely, but you are afraid that the enemy generals will throw a few pieces of copper coins on the ground, and you will be scrambling to the blood!"
Chen Yuanqing, the governor of Chengde, and Wang Rong, the governor of Yiwu, sweated heavily when he heard this, and lay on the ground and did not dare to move. The soldiers of the two nearby towns and schools were all trembling and their faces were pale.
While Li Ye was speaking, he released a sense of pressure.
Although this powerful aura is only one of the three thousand weak waters compared to Li Ye's cultivation, it makes them feel like a small boat facing the tide of the sea, and the boat may be destroyed at any time.
At this time, anyone knew that King An was really angry.
Xie Yi, the governor of Wei Bo, was an old general of Wei Bo's army. At that time, after Li Ye pacified Wei Bo, he promoted him to take care of the local military and people's hearts. He was very grateful to Li Ye's kindness. He worked hard since he took office, but he did his best to do his best. However, he was still involved in this storm and felt very bitter and wronged.
Although Wei Bojun's black-faced general was not too much in this matter, he had a conflict with the other party after all. Even though Xie Yi felt wronged at this time, how could he dare to complain in front of the king's anger?
Li Ye's eyes fell on Chen Yuanqing, "I hope you will kill the enemy and serve the country? You are afraid that you will cause trouble to the three armies! Today, you can fight against your fellow comrades for some military rations. If the enemy commander offers a reward for the head of the Lone King, do you want to fight back and use a sword and gun at the Lone King?"
After saying this, Chen Yuanqing shook all over and was so scared that he was out of his mind.
He quickly shouted: "Your Highness calms down, but I dare not! Your Highness is loyal to Your Highness. Even if you borrow one hundred courages, you must not be disrespectful to Your Highness! Your Highness, your Highness knows your mistake, and ask your Highness to give your Highness a chance to prove your loyalty and let Cheng De Army kill the enemy for Your Highness!"
Wang Rong and Xie Yi also responded quickly.
Li Ye sneered: "Red mouth and white teeth, how can the Lone King believe you?"
Chen Yuanqing felt that the pressure on his body was getting heavier and heavier, and he was about to crush his bones, and the fear in his heart could hardly be controlled.
He knew before that even if he killed his general Yuan Lang, he would probably not be able to extinguish Li Ye's anger. However, he didn't expect that Li Ye's anger would be so great that his life would probably be lost.
Chen Yuanqing's teeth were trembling, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only keep grabbing the ground with his head and keep showing his loyalty. After all, he had the cultivation level of the real person realm, and now the ground was shaking loudly.
The governor of a town with 100,000 troops in his hand was usually dominant, but when he arrived in front of a real big shot, it was no different from what the despised man in the city looked when he saw them.
If Xue Wei was here, seeing Chen Yuanqing's appearance, I would probably not feel how sad he was when he was in a panic when facing the army.
After Chen Yuanqing kowtowed and almost kowtowed, Li Ye said lightly: "You said you are loyal to killing the enemy and serving the country. The Gu Wang will believe you once. However, the war is imminent and the military laws of the various soldiers are unclear, but Gu Wang cannot sit idly by. Within three days, the military supervisor will take office to help you understand the military laws. Are you dissatisfied?"
When the military supervisor heard these two words, Chen Yuanqing and others were shocked.
Li Ye sent people to various vassal states to supervise the army, which would undoubtedly greatly strengthen the control of the army.
The military supervisor has great power, and even the status of the military supervisor is above the military governor.
In fact, the imperial court had been sending eunuchs to the vassal states to supervise the army.
It’s just that they are all vassal states that are of average strength and obey the imperial court, not including the powerful vassal states in Hebei.
The three towns in Hebei even made decisions by themselves. The court could only admit that there were military supervisors?
But they are facing Li Ye at this moment.
Chen Yuanqing, Wang Rong, Xie Yi and others hurriedly said: "Dear Your Highness's military order!"
Even though he knew that Li Ye wanted to cut off power, Chen Yuanqing and Wang Rong did not dare to object at all. Now they are all guilty. Fortunately, Xie Yi is very loyal to Li Ye and has no impression of it.
However, Li Ye has not finished speaking.
He continued: "Since you are fighting for military rations here, it means that there is a shortage of food in the camp, and the food reserves of their respective vassal states are insufficient, and the call is not effective. The Lone King leads you to the war to make achievements and not to let you lack material resources."
Chen Yuanqing, Wang Rong and others were happy when they heard this, and they thought Li Ye wanted to provide additional supplies.
Clinking Li Ye changed his subject, "The poor governance of the vassal states has led to poor supplies and affected the army's war. It is still a little short of causing the two armies to fight. This is a great deal? The king of the orphans have no choice but to give food, but it is better to give seeds than to give food. It is the best way to help you be self-sufficient."
"Within a few days, the Lone King will send a group of officials into the vassal states to help you collect food and fodder and ensure the army's supplies. At the same time, they will also help you eliminate the current ills of the vassal states and implement the civil affairs policy of Pinglu, so that your vassal states will become truly rich and no longer have material shortages."
After he said this, Chen Yuanqing and others were already stunned.
They now understand that Li Ye not only wants to seize their military power, but also have the power of civil affairs!
When the civil officials under Li Ye enter various vassal states, they must take office positions if they want to do things. When they finish the work and the official position is firmly settled, will they still leave obediently?
Since these officials, including the military supervisor, were sent out by Li Ye, they were of course his confidants. They would not have the military governors of the vassal states in their eyes, but only King An!
Li Ye glanced at the few people coldly, "The Lone King has finished speaking, who wants to object?"
Chen Yuanqing and others had no choice but to bow down and listen to the order: "The emperor is willing to obey your order!"
Chen Yuanqing was already thinking about it. After he returned to Chengde, the first thing he did was to arrest and kill the three tribes of his general Yuan Lang.
The incident that the other party made Li Ye catch the handle and found an excuse to cut off power and seize power with Zhenyanshun, but it hurt him a lot!
Then Chen Yuanqing found that Wang Rong stared at him secretly. When he touched the other party's eyes, Chen Yuanqing was shocked. What kind of eyes were that? The eyes that were about to eat people!
So Chen Yuanqing knew that what he thought about Yuan Lang just now was probably what Wang Rong thought about him now!
Chen Yuanqing had the heart to cry.
However, he was not afraid of Wang Rong. Everyone was the governor. What could the other party do to him? Besides, with King An above, the other party would really dare to make trouble in the future? If this happens today, Wang Rong's head will probably be removed by King An.
Li Ye was quite satisfied with taking everyone's reaction in his eyes.
Today's incident was an accident, but Li Ye had already planned to take advantage of this opportunity to gather troops from various vassal states to conquer the Central Plains and seize some of the vassal states' authority in order to completely implement Pinglu's military and political policies in various towns and accelerate the progress of the people's loyalty to him.
Chengde and Yiwu armies had never fought with him, and were still relatively unruly and were the most likely to have problems. The war was about to come. Li Ye came to inspect this time because he was attracted by this and wanted to hit them.
Unexpectedly, it was a surprise that such a battle for military rations was a matter of surprise.
Of course, in Li Ye's plan, the depriving of Chen Yuanqing and Wang Rong's military and political power was just the beginning.
There are also Henghai Jiedushi, Tianping Jiedushi, Zhaoyi Jiedushi, Lulong Jiedushi...
However, there is no need to hurry these vassal states. If things are overdoing, it will be difficult for everyone to be in danger. After all, Li Ye still wants them to be willing to follow him to fight Zhu Wen, and he does not want people to be unstable at this time.
When the situation was settled in the late stage of the war and the situation was settled and the towns were not afraid of making trouble, it was when Li Ye "takes action" against these Jiedu governors.
"Okay, get up." Li Ye put away his pressure and finally said something that made everyone feel relieved.
Amid everyone's thanks, Li Ye then threw away, and Chen Yuanqing, Wang Rong and Xie Yi had a magic weapon in their hands.
It is not a magic weapon, but a magic weapon.
Li Ye still has a lot of magic weapons obtained by the demon clan.
Seeing the magic weapons in their hands and feeling the huge spiritual energy they contained, Chen Yuanqing and others were about to pop out their eyes, and their surprise was beyond words.
If their own magic weapon is a dagger, then the magic weapon given by Li Ye is equivalent to a cannon.
With such a powerful weapon in hand, the strength has improved by more than one or two levels?
Li Ye's face lost the cold and hard look of the moment, and replaced by a warm smile: "Follow the Lone King to fight and serve the dynasty and the country, the Lone King will naturally not treat you badly. You can use these magic weapons first. If you make contributions in the battle field in the future and do not insult these magic weapons, then they are yours."
After a pause, Li Ye said meaningfully: "Everyone is a cultivator in the realm of realm, and you can go further on the road of cultivation. The Lone King can give you the magic weapon used by the Immortal Realm. I also hope that you can think about it well. Compared with the achievement of the Immortal Realm, what is a mere vassal state?"
Chen Yuanqing, Wang Rong and others looked at each other.
Both of them saw the bitterness and sorrow in each other's eyes swept away, and now they were filled with unspeakable excitement and excitement.
A sacred door of light slowly opened in front of them.
That was the road that they could only look up to but dare not imagine before, but now they see hope to step into this door!
