After being ridiculed by Qin Mubai in public, Du Chengyuan's expression changed obviously, and he was very embarrassed. He forced a smile and whispered: "General Qin, please forgive me. I have never been good at speaking. If my words are offensive, I apologize to you."
"That's all." Qin Mubai waved his hand and said, "It's just that Feng Daobao has no military discipline and openly insulted Shangguan in the military camp and gathered a crowd to rebel. How should we deal with it?"
"This..." Du Chengyuan frowned in embarrassment, rolled his eyes a few times, and said, "There are many people here, how about we discuss it in private?"
"Negotiation?" Qin Mubai said in astonishment, "You think you are buying side dishes at the vegetable market, do you want the buyer and seller to bargain for a while? Come here, first tie up this undisciplined thief Feng Daobao!"
"yes!"
Several hundred knights rushed forward, dragged Feng Daobao up from the ground like a dead pig, and tied him up tightly.
There were still one to two hundred sailors watching, and Du Chengyuan's expression turned even more ugly.
"General Qin... How about you save some face for your humble position in front of all the brothers?" Du Chengyuan said in a low voice, "Everyone knows that Feng Daobao is my brother-in-law. If he commits a crime, I will definitely reprimand him. I will strictly discipline him after he returns and ensure that he will never do it again in the future.”
"General Du, I would like to ask you to clarify one thing. What Feng Daobao is violating now is a military regulation, and it is not just as simple as offending someone. If you don't follow the law, how can you convince the public? What will we use to repay you in the future? To restrain the troops? Feng Daobao is your brother-in-law. This has nothing to do with him being punished for violating military regulations. Don't worry, I will deal with him in an honest and fair manner according to military regulations and give you an explanation. of."
After saying that, Qin Mubai raised his lips with a cold smile, reached out and patted his chest: "See you later."
Qin Mubai and his party left with Pang Fei and hundreds of horsemen, and escorted Feng Daobao, who was tied up with five flowers.
Du Chengyuan's face had turned pale, his teeth were gritting like bones, his eyes narrowed, and murderous intent burst out.
Zhao Chongji stood there, feeling like there were no human beings around him, which was the most embarrassing thing. So he had no choice but to walk up to Du Chengyuan and whisper: "General Du, please calm down. Qin Mubai must be a new official and wants to show off his authority in public. He will definitely not do anything to Feng Daobao. "
"Snapped-"
Du Chengyuan suddenly had a fit and slapped Zhao Chong with his hand. He gritted his teeth and yelled: "You are eating everything inside and out!"
The sergeant in the audience exclaimed, and immediately dispersed in a wide circle. It can be seen that they are extremely afraid of Du Chengyuan.
"W-what did I do?" Zhao Chong was shocked and angry, touching his face and looking at Du Chengyuan with wide eyes.
"Go away -" Du Chengyuan waved his hands and shouted, and all the soldiers watching suddenly dispersed, and no one was left in an instant.
"Do you think I don't know what you've done?" Du Chengyuan walked up to Zhao Chong, lifted up his front and looked at him, and said with gritted teeth: "You surrendered to him as soon as Qin Mubai came here. "Didn't he invite you to the inn for a meeting last time? What did you tell him in private?"
"I didn't say anything!" Zhao Chong said unjustly, "What would I say to him? I didn't turn to him!"
"Still quibbling!" Du Chengyuan sternly reprimanded, "You were helping him deal with Feng DaoScar just now, otherwise, how could things have gotten so messy?"
"I didn't!" Zhao Chong said anxiously, "Feng Daobao ignored the military regulations and took people out to have sex without permission, so that's it; after coming back, he will organize one or two hundred people to go out to fight with each other... If this thing really becomes a problem, The commotion is really big. When Qin Mubai takes office, he is waiting to catch a few prominent guys and kill Li Wei. Isn't it going to be a bigger trouble? I am actually doing it for his own good, and I am afraid that he will make things worse and get into trouble. Ah! I didn’t expect him to treat my good intentions like a donkey and humiliate me in public... I didn’t expect Qin Mubai to come to the military camp tonight and actually alert him!"
Du Chengyuan glared at Zhao Chong, rolled his eyes, and then let go of his hand. His face softened and he patted the front of his clothes gently. He said kindly: "Okay, I have wronged you. You have to remember , We are all in the same boat, and Qin Mubai just wants to crash our boat and put us all in trouble. At this time, we must unite with the outside world, and we must not be careless! "
"Yes, I remember." Zhao Chong lowered his head, gritted his teeth gently, and responded.
Du Chengyuan took a long breath and hummed: "Feng Daobao is just a poor scapegoat. In fact, he fought with me... Well, I want to see what he really wants."
Zhao Chong couldn't help but reached out and touched his burning cheeks, and looked around. Although there was no one around, he always felt that countless pairs of eyes were staring at him, mocking and sarcastic him. In front of Du Chengyuan, Not even a dog.
"Go, call all the brothers here overnight, let's discuss it first!" Du Chengyuan gave the order.
"Yes..." Zhao Chong helplessly bowed his fists and left.
In the commander's tent of the Chinese army.
"Qin, you are abusing your power to avenge yourself!" Outside the tent, Feng Daobao was still shouting.
A guard angrily threw Feng Dao Scar into the tent. Feng Daobao was tied up so tightly that he staggered a few steps. Another guard stepped forward and grabbed him. He grabbed his hair and pushed him down, and his knees hit him in the middle of the chest. Feng Daobao fell to the sky, and his huge body crashed to the ground like a collapsed cement wall panel. He immediately curled up into a ball without screaming. He was exhaling too much and taking in too little. He rolled his eyes and twitched. It was obvious that he was jostled. Out of breath.
"Cut off the head of this rascal!" the guards roared angrily.
No wonder everyone is so angry. Even in Chang'an, at the feet of the emperor, even in places like the palace, no one dared to publicly insult any of the Hundred Cavalry soldiers, let alone Qin Mubai!
"Stop, we can't kill him now." Qin Mubai shouted softly, and the guards snorted in anger and moved aside.
Qin Mubai sat down on the large handsome chair, looked sideways at Feng Daobao, who was lying on the ground, groaning and twitching, and said: "Throw this thief into a military prison first, so that he can be properly guarded."
"Yes." The guards dragged Feng DaoShang directly, wiping the ground and leaving the military tent.
"General, although this thief is hateful, he is just relying on Du Chengyuan to be arrogant." Pang Fei said, "As the saying goes, beating a dog deceives the master. If you catch him in public today, Du Chengyuan must be very angry."
"I did it on purpose." Qin Mubai said coldly, "I just wanted to see what would happen if he got angry."
Pang Fei frowned and said: "I stayed in the military camp for a few days, and I felt that this was his world alone. I inquired privately and learned that the Xiangzhou Military Mansion had replaced four or five captains of Zhechong and Lieutenant-General in the past three years. Captain Guo Yi, the only one who has never been replaced is Du Chengyuan. It is said that the previous Captain Zhechong was slapped in the face by Du Chengyuan in public because of his disagreement, so he complained of illness and never came to the military camp again, and he asked to leave soon after. Let it go. This guy has a habit of slapping people. If anyone offends him, he will definitely slap him until his face becomes swollen and his teeth fall out."
Qin Mubai raised a hand and touched his chin, and said with a smile: "This is an interesting hobby. Tell me, what would he think if I slapped him like that?"
"He will not hesitate to gather a crowd to force the palace to rebel against you!" Pang Fei said decisively, "In this military mansion, at least 80% of the military academy are his confidants. Let's just talk about Zhao Chong, who used to be a villain in Xiangyang City. He took a liking to Yexiang because of his good aquatic qualities and some bravery, so he took him to the military camp and became a mercenary. He was promoted to a captain overnight and has been working there for three or four years. "
"So, he really has the final say in the Xiangzhou Military Mansion?" Qin Mubai frowned and said, "The Chinese Army's Yueqi team is also his?"
"Yes. Ma Lirong, the leader of the Yueqi team, was once a green forest bandit. It is said that his martial arts are extremely extraordinary. After he was arrested and imprisoned a few years ago, Du Chengyuan released him and bribed him into a confidant. He was used as a thug in the hospital for a long time. For two years. He was placed in the military camp and joined the Yueqi team, and he became the leader of the team half a year ago. "Pang Fei said, "Others, such as Chang Shi, Sima, and Cao Cao, are probably his people in Xiangzhou. In the army, those who follow others prosper and those who go against others perish."
"Ha! I didn't expect this seemingly elegant guy to have some skills." Qin Mubai sneered, "So, aren't we isolated?"
"Based on the current situation, we only have the Baiqi brothers from Chang'an who we can trust and rely on," Pang Fei said.
Qin Mubai put his right hand on the table, tapping his index finger and middle finger on the table gently in rhythm, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
"My mentor seems to have a clever plan to deal with him?" Pang Fei asked.
"As the saying goes, there are three things a new official should do when he takes office. My first thing is to capture the thief and capture the king, destroy Du Chengyuan's majesty, and establish my own grace." Qin Mubai said, "Xiangzhou Military Mansion changed generals. The successive replacements of Captain Zhe Chong were obviously forced to leave because of his disagreement with Du Chengyuan. Hehe, others are afraid of him, but I am not necessarily afraid of him. Is it possible to have a strong relationship with others? This time I will not play any tricks and confront him head-on. I want to see what will happen even if I offend Du Chengyuan in public? , How dare he do it?”
"That's right!" Pang Fei suddenly beamed, feeling a little proud, and said, "The Du family in Chang'an is indeed a wealthy and noble family. Most people respect them and no one dares to offend them. But Du Ruhui's son, Du He, the Prince Consort, is now Wei. A dispensable role in the king's command? When he met his mentor, he had to be polite, because the mentor was personally invited by the King of Wei, and he didn't invite Du Chengyuan. It’s true that they are desperate and have gathered a crowd to rebel by force. Even though we are a small number, we may not be afraid of their rabble!”
"This is called, one force can suppress a hundred tricks." Qin Mubai raised the corner of his mouth and smiled coldly, "I let him have all kinds of tricks and tricks. This time, I will definitely eat him up! Feng Dao will be put on trial tomorrow. Scar will be found out when he is convicted and executed!"
"That's great!" Pang Fei beamed with joy and said excitedly, "I have been in Xiangzhou for so long, and I have so many grievances! I can finally vent my anger!"
The next day, early morning.
The drum of the Chinese army sounded a stick of incense earlier than usual, and the roaring sound made the whole military camp tremble.
Some of the sergeants who were used to sleeping late on weekdays were awakened. They got up with curses, slowly put on their military uniforms, picked up their weapons, and ran to the main campus. Everyone told each other by word of mouth that the new Captain Zhechong had finally come to take office and would personally preside over the morning training today. Only then did all the sergeants cheer up and quickly assemble on the school field.
Qin Mubai put on his golden helmet and sword, with the angry unicorn shirt still floating behind him. He stood majestically on the general ordering platform, watching more than a thousand soldiers gathering under the stage.
Du Chengyuan and all the officers and generals of the military mansion arrived, and they all went up to the general platform and stood behind Qin Mubai, standing with their hands down. Everyone exchanged glances from time to time, harboring ulterior motives and feeling a little uneasy.
Three drums and one soaring horn.
"kill-"
The whole army gave a mighty shout in unison, raised their guns and gave them a heavy blow in front of them. The armor was rustling, the spears and halberds were like frost, and the whole place was silent.
The trumpet went out, and the army muster was finally completed.
Qin Mubai put his hands behind his back and looked around. More than a thousand people were looking at him in unison and sizing each other up.
No one in the audience spoke, and everyone's breath seemed to blend with the gentle morning breeze, causing the flags on the stage to fly slightly.
"I, Qin Mubai, will be your general from today on!" Qin Mubai suddenly shouted in anger, startling many people behind him.
"That is to say, from today on, all the officers and soldiers in the Xiangzhou Military Mansion only need to do two things." Qin Mubai said loudly: "The first is to abide by military regulations and obey orders; the second is to obey my orders, Qin Mubai !”
A few loud shouts made Du Chengyuan and others behind him take a few breaths of cold air: This man has so much energy, he must have some internal martial arts skills!
"After I have finished speaking, if anyone objects, please stand up."
Qin Mubai said this, and the whole place was silent. Most of the officers and generals behind him were holding their breath and concentrating, with their hearts in their throats, and they all thought in unison: The war is about to begin, the war is about to begin! Qin Mubai was obviously declaring war on Du Chengyuan!
