In Xia Ya's military camp, the words "Have you won?" that day had already been spread.
Soldiers all respected a general like Char.
In the military, coaches like Char have always been heroes in the hearts of soldiers. What's more, who in the army doesn't like this kind of "short-guarding" general
After that, the army went out for exercises every day, and the cavalrymen held their heads high, their spirits were excited, and their sturdy aura made their eyes hurt when they looked at them from a distance. The inadvertent handling of that day by Xia Yan was greatly in line with the appetite of the lieutenant generals. Don't be afraid to fight, if you lose, you are a coward!
The garrison on both sides is not far apart. The cavalry here in Xiaya go out for exercises every day, and even deliberately go to the vicinity of the Besta Army's garrison. Occasionally, they encounter a team from the Besta Army, but the other party hides from a distance, as if they dare not dare to. I contacted Char's army again.
After waiting in the army for two days, as expected, the official order to open the passage from the army arrived.
At this time, Besta sent an envoy from the army to come to see Xia Ya, saying that it was under the order of the governor's wife to ask General Xia Ya, whether the two sides were the same as when they came. return.
When Xia Ya heard this, she felt a little unhappy in her heart.
Because this time the troops were sent south to the King of Osgilia, and before the departure, the two sides reached an agreement that all the food and salaries for the troops sent this time would be paid by Besta. On the way here, the food and forage consumed along the way were all provided by the Besta people. After arriving in the imperial capital, at the beginning, before the division of troops, the governor's wife of the Besta people also followed the rules and left a part of the food and grass for Xia when the troops were divided.
But after staying here for many days in Osgilia, the food and forage left by the Besta people were also consumed.
Seeing that if he was going to return to the north, then according to the original agreement, the food and grass on the way back should be supplied by the Besta people. But now the governor's wife is pretending to send someone to ask... It's just a temptation, it seems that she doesn't want to give out any more food.
Where is such a cheap thing
There are thousands of people here in Xia Ya, people want to eat, horses want to chew, it is a long journey to return to their own jurisdiction, even if they march all the way in a hurry, I am afraid that they will not be able to do it in ten days and a half. Do the Besta people want to pay back the food consumption along the way
Xia Ya saw the messenger, and after listening to the other party's words, he said lightly: "The two sergeants have had some small frictions. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient to travel together. Let's go separately."
When the messenger heard it, he immediately said: "Our governor's wife also meant the same thing. Since that's the case, then the governor's wife also asked me to pass a sentence to the general, wishing the general a smooth journey. I'm afraid that we will meet again in the future. I don't know what it is. At that time, may the general have a prosperous official career..."
After the messenger finished speaking, he said goodbye without saying a word about the food and forage.
Xia Ya was annoyed in her heart, but she didn't mention the matter of food and grass. She just sneered after watching the messenger leave coldly.
There was no one in the tent, and Xiaya's face gradually became solemn, and he took a deep breath, thinking about the attitude of the governor's wife in Besta...
At this time, Dora's voice came from my mind: "What are you worried about? Has the woman's attitude changed?"
Xia Ya listened and nodded: "This woman's attitude has changed a bit strangely. It was agreed at the beginning that it was just a matter of playing a different show for the bosses of the imperial capital to see. The sergeants on both sides rubbed against each other a few days ago, and I also I didn't take it to heart. But now this woman's attitude has suddenly cooled down, and I'm worried that she is going to cross the river and demolish the bridge. "
Dora smiled and said, "That's because you are too naive. In this kind of political matter, where can you have permanent friends. For the sake of interests, your position can be changed at any time. Besides, when you used each other, she asked you, naturally Is to flatter you in every possible way, now..."
Xia Ya shook his head: "That's what I don't understand. It stands to reason that it's not good for them to really turn against me now."
After a pause, he smiled and said: "I'm not worried about the food and grass on the way back. The captured rebels have a lot of loot and materials, but they are enough. It's just that this woman crossed the river and demolished the bridge, which changed her face so fast, but she was used by her. , make me unhappy."
Dora was silent for a while, and said: "When she offered to ask you to spread the word in the imperial capital to guard against the Besta people, I was a little wary at that time, this woman is too thoughtful, she made such a request, although it seems reasonable , but I always feel that she didn't tell you the truth. I'm afraid you are also used by her, but I can't guess what you are using for a while. "
Xia Ya thought for a while, and since she couldn't think of it, she smiled freely: "I don't care about her so much, if she wants to change, let her change! Am I still afraid that she won't? Hmph, no matter what she thinks, she will never dare to be honest. She and I openly turned against each other, otherwise, I will call her thousands of cavalry soldiers to go north, and she will not be able to return!"
Xia Ya said this with great confidence.
If the two really turned their faces and used force, even though the Besta people had 7,000 cavalry, Xiaya only had 3,000. But if they really fight, Xia Ya is absolutely confident that his 3,000 cavalry can kill all the 7,000 Besta cavalry in less than an hour!
The strength of the Rodriguez cavalry is not boasted! What's more, there are five hundred "strong knights" that are extremely powerful by Xia Ya's side!
…
Before leaving, something happened.
Xia Ya's entire army was preparing to leave, and suddenly someone came to inform Xia Ya, and several people dressed as officers of the Besta Army came to ask for an interview.
Xia Ya was puzzled in her heart, and asked someone to bring someone in. The ones who brought in to see Xia Ya were indeed a few officers from the Best Army. When they saw Xia Ya, several officers fell to their knees on the ground, and the first one burst into tears: "General Xia Ya, help! Our general, let us Come and ask to see General Xia Ya! You are the only one who can save him now! If you don't reach out, our general will just…”
Xia Ya was confused.
But the people in front of them recognized it.
These people are indeed members of the Besta army, but they are not the subordinates of the Governor's wife, but the nephew of the Governor Bestar, the only legitimate heir of the Governor Bestar's family, and the confidant of General Lear.
Seeing the person who was kneeling on the ground and crying and begging in front of him, Xia Ya's heart immediately moved!
Could it be that the Governor's wife has ruthlessly cleaned up the door
But this idea was immediately rejected by Xia Ya himself. After all, Lear is nominally the nephew of the old governor and the legitimate heir of the family. There are quite a few old officials in the Besta army who secretly support it. Even if that woman really wanted to get rid of Lear, she would never dare to do it openly, otherwise, she would be outraged.
"what happened?"
Xia Ya's face was solemn: "Don't cry! Get up and talk!"
The following officers stood up, and the first one said loudly and anxiously: "General Xia! There is an order from the imperial capital, and our General Lear has been detained in the imperial capital!"
Xia: "…"
…
After these officers finished speaking, Xia Ya understood what had happened.
Lear was indeed "detained" in the imperial capital, but instead of being arrested, he was given a name by the royal family to stay in the imperial capital.
The official statement is that His Majesty the Emperor appreciates Lear's youthful and powerful talents, and keeps Lear by his side for listening to him. The imperial capital!
And it's funny how this happened.
It was actually the bigwigs and dignitaries in the imperial capital who expressed a meaning to the emperor together: the new arrival of the Besta people cannot be completely trusted. It must be reused and there must be a means of checks and balances.
And detaining Lear is the means of "checking and balancing" the Besta Military Region that the big bosses in the imperial capital came up with!
Lear is the first heir to the Governor of the Besta Military Region and the only male of the family blood. Moreover, during the days when the governor's wife entered the imperial capital, whether it was to meet with the bigwigs or to meet the emperor, she always took Lear by her side.
On the surface, the relationship between the two seems to be close and harmonious, and they even acted in a few scenes of an auntie's family. Outsiders don't know that the pair of nephews in the Besta Military Region have already reached the point of incompatibility.
In the end, His Majesty Garcia adopted the opinions of the big bosses in the imperial capital. To check and balance the Besta people, he should follow the management and leave "hostages".
In their opinion, Lear is the heir of the Besta Military Region. Such a person, staying in the imperial capital as a pledge, has enough weight. For the safety of their heirs, the Besta people will never dare to make mistakes in the future, and they will definitely be safe. Allegiance to the royal family divided by points, and work for the royal family.
As a result, the emperor concealed his meaning at a meeting, but the governor's wife agreed very readily, and took the initiative to express that it was his honor for Lear to be appreciated by the emperor, and Besta was willing to let Lear The general stayed with the emperor of the imperial capital to serve the...
As a result, poor Lear was left in the imperial capital by that woman. When the governor's wife returned to the camp, she was already under house arrest in a house near the imperial capital's palace.
…
"When our general entered the city with that woman, the woman ordered the general to leave us in the barracks outside the city, and he was not allowed to bring his entourage. The general had no choice but to enter the city with that woman alone! Being alone by that woman's side, in desperation, I can only be manipulated by the other party and act with that woman, but the people in the imperial capital don't see that the general is actually not on the same side as that woman!"
"General Xia! Our general has already been placed under house arrest in the imperial capital, and we have finally figured out a way to find someone to send the news! He has been placed under house arrest near the palace! He is not allowed to gossip with others at all. That woman, is Borrowing a knife to kill, want to kill our general in the imperial capital!"
"General Xia Ya, our general admires you the most on weekdays. He often says that heroes like you are the most admired in his heart. Before, our generals were very respectful to you along the way. At this time, only you can save our generals. …”
When Xia Ya heard the crying and pleading of the people in front of her, she immediately became clear in her heart!
Oh shit! I really fell for that woman!
Back then, when that woman asked Lao Tzu to deliberately spread the remarks in the imperial capital that "Besta people should not be trusted", I was afraid that she had this idea and wanted to kill someone with a knife!
Deliberately let the royal family and the big bosses of the imperial capital have the idea of distrusting the Besta people, then next... According to the management, the foreign generals leave hostages, which is also a historical practice!
That woman, she had already planned it!
Although Xia Ya was a little scared and angry in her heart, she had to admit that this woman really did a good job!
Hmm... don't you trust me? So good, I left the "sole heir" of the family as a hostage, can I finally express our loyalty
It's ridiculous that the royal family thought that they had caught the Besta people, but they didn't know that it had removed one of the biggest scourges for that woman!
And Xiaya herself was used by the woman in this matter and became an accomplice!
After all, it was Char who was the first to spread the saying that "Besta people can't be trusted"!
As can be expected, in the future that Lear will be held as a hostage in the imperial capital. And the governor's wife, I am afraid that after returning to the Besta Military Region, she will immediately free up her hands and clean the interior!
Although there are some forces within Besta that are attached to Lear, but the Lear people are in the imperial capital, and their internal subordinates are naturally leaderless. How can they be the opponent of that smart and shrewd governor's wife
I'm afraid that after three or two strokes, it will be cleaned up!
After the internal cleaning is completed, even if Lear, the bachelor leader, is still alive, he has no soldiers, no soldiers, and no one to use, so he will no longer threaten the governor's wife!
What's more... If the Governor's wife wants Lear to die, it's not difficult!
As long as she deliberately angered the imperial family of the imperial capital and deliberately acted like she was just around the corner to make the royal family dissatisfied with her, I was afraid that when the royal family became angry, they might use Lear's life to blackmail the Besta people.
But... Will the Governor's wife be afraid that the royal family will threaten Lear's life
Exactly! you want to kill? Just kill it!
If Lear was really killed by the royal family, the Governor's wife would applaud instead! In this way, Lear's death can't be blamed on her!
The most important thing is that the initiative is in the hands of that woman!
If she really wants to kill Lear, she just needs to be careful!
First, she deliberately did something to provoke the royal family, forcing the royal family to use Lear, and then took the initiative to ask the royal family to relent—she was very smart, knowing that the royal family would also hold her nose and accept it! Because the royal family has no power at all to destroy the Besta Military Region!
The initiative has been seized by this woman!
Think a little further...
Even Lear's subordinates came to him to ask for help, I'm afraid it was the woman who let them run away on purpose!
Otherwise, with the woman's shrewdness, how could Lear's subordinates have the ability to escape from the woman's nose in the Besta Army
That woman is testing herself! Test your attitude!
It is also to test whether he will intervene in the internal affairs of their Besta Military Region!
If you intervene by yourself, then everyone will really not be able to cooperate in the future! If you don't intervene...
It was only when Xia Ya thought of this that there was a personal guard outside the door to announce loudly.
"General! Besta has come and said that it was on the order of their governor's wife to send 20 carts of food and grass for the journey back and forth. In addition, the visitor also said that there were some deserters in their army, and someone saw them heading towards us. I came running, and the other party said to ask the general to help us catch the deserters!"
Xia Ya's heart moved immediately!
Come so fast! This is forcing myself to express my opinion!
