The soldiers and horses of all walks of life finally moved, and they were almost scared to death, because at first they thought it was a flood in Nanpi City, but the fire became bigger and bigger, and later it was a little closer The cries of killing in the city can be heard in all the camps.
Immediately his face changed, if something happened to Cao Cao, the boss, then everyone would die together.
Immediately, soldiers and horses began to be ordered. This is still fast, and there are some slow ones. They are still sitting on the Diaoyutai, and they will never dare to approach the city without a military order.
It's all right now, whether it's fast or slow, there are messengers running into the camp, and the prime minister has invited them.
They were calm at first, but when they entered the city, it seemed that Cao Cao had deliberately let them enter through the south gate, and saw the tragic situation at the south gate, with corpses lying all over the ground, and their faces turned pale.
It's not that they are afraid of corpses, none of them are brave and good fighters in the army, how could they be afraid of some corpses, they are afraid of the living person, that is their master Cao Cao.
The south gate has been marked like this, how will the city be fine? And how angry their master Cao Cao will be, you can imagine it with your ass. So all of them were terribly pale and weeping like dead parents.
They filed in one by one, and entered the Yuan Mansion. Although the corpses in the Yuan Mansion were accompanied away, the strong blood energy has not dissipated yet.
"My lord, those generals are here!" Cheng Yu said to Cao Cao, who was wiping the body of a big man, who was Xu Chu. There was nothing serious about Xu Chu but he lost a lot of blood. Xu Chu's strong physique and his thick fat saved his life. He was not directly beheaded by Zhao Yun on the spot, but even so, he passed out due to excessive blood loss.
What Cao Cao has to do now is to wipe off the dirty parts of Xu Chu's body, and then help Xu Chu tie up the wound with a clean cloth.
Cheng Yu yelled once, but Cao Cao didn't respond. He thought Cao Cao hadn't heard, so he yelled a second time, but Cao Cao still didn't move. Cheng Yu naturally knew that Cao Cao didn't hear. Instead, they won't go out to meet those bastards right away.
Cheng Yu nodded, went out the door, and saw that the chief generals and deputy generals of the Cao army were all kneeling at the door. All of them had a lot of military exploits, at least at the level of 10,000 generals, but now One by one, they knelt outside like quails.
Seeing the sky darken, kneeling for a long time, the legs will be numb due to insufficient blood supply.
All the generals and schools began to stagger.
Seeing it is about to be unbearable. Over there, Cao Cao finally wiped Xu Chu's body. Time to see them.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and finally stopped kneeling. In fact, waiting is the scariest time. Because you have no idea how angry Boss Cao is and whether he will kill you. It's better to just hang up if you're so worried.
Listening to Cao Cao's words, they all stepped into Cao Cao's meeting hall one by one.
"The last general waits for the escort to come late, and ask the prime minister to punish him!" All of them knelt down in front of Cao Cao.
Cao Cao looked indifferently at the generals under him who kowtowed and admitted their mistakes one by one, not knowing what was going on in his heart.
"Get up!" Cao Cao said to the crowd below.
But none of them dared to get up. The calmer Lao Cao was, the faster the storm was coming.
"Why do you want me to say it a second time?" Cao Cao continued.
"Yes!" Cao Cao said so, and everyone stood up. But this heart is still uneasy.
"What are you guilty of? Stand still and never send troops without a military order. This is the way to be a general!" Cao Cao praised them in turn.
All of them breathed a sigh of relief, so the lord is not that angry.
"Xu Huang, I heard that you acted privately when you saw the smoke in the city? Are you going to mobilize troops into the city?" Cao Cao asked Xu Huang over there.
"Yes!" Xu Huang nodded. Although he fired the soldiers and horses, he still hesitated to act. He didn't know if it was Wolf Smoke or something else.
"Xu Huang, Xu Gongming, what should you do!" Cao Cao slapped the table violently, and angrily yelled at Xu Huang.
"The last general, the last general is convicted!" Xu Huang quickly fell to his knees.
"Are you guilty? What crime do you know? Hmph, mobilizing troops without authorization. Why do you want to let the army out of the camp without my military order? Cheng Yu, come and tell him what to do according to the law in the army?" Cao Cao was furious. Xu Huang roared.
"According to the law in the army! All shall be beheaded!" Cheng Yu said to Cao Cao over there.
Seeing Cao Cao deal with Xu Huang, the few people over there couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, because they had been standing still, and they just didn't want to make merit but hope for no fault. Now it seems that the protagonist didn't have much reaction to those who stood still, but instead dealt with those self-assertive people.
You deserve it, let you go out without authorization. One by one complacent, happy for their inaction.
But Cheng Yu over there shook his head, those idiots. How could the lord kill Xu Huang and Xu Gongming? Who is Xu Huang? It can be regarded as a profitable general under the lord's command. If the lord killed Xu Huang, wouldn't he have broken his arm! So the board that Cao Cao landed on Xu Huang's body would only be lifted heavily, and then dropped gently.
But those individuals don't know.
Sure enough, as Cheng Yu expected, another person immediately knelt down to intercede with Xu Huang. Although General Xu Huang was guilty, he was not guilty of death. Also, General Xu Huang had a lord in his heart. will be silly.
Cao Cao immediately got a step up and stepped down. Xu Huang's death penalty is inevitable.
"As for you, it's very good, very good to be able to stand still!" Cao Cao said with a smile as he looked at the generals who stood still. When Cao Cao called the generals of these armies to command, he sent people to investigate, and those soldiers and horses were dispatched. Those have never been dispatched. Cao Cao is clear at a glance.
"Thank you, my lord, for your praise, this is what we should do!" Several people said shamelessly.
"Reward for meritorious deeds. Punish for demerits. This is the way of reward and punishment. You agree!" Cao Cao said with a smile.
"My lord, we don't have any merit, so I dare not accept it!" Several people almost laughed out loud in their hearts. Although they were refusing, they really looked at Cao Cao eagerly.
"Come here, reward each of these generals with a hundred gold. A promotion!" Cao Cao shouted to his subordinates.
"My lord is wise!" One by one, they knelt down on the ground, smiling wide-eyed, they got money without doing anything, got credit for their achievements, and got promoted, who wouldn't want such benefits.
"Let's go, let's go!" Just as these generals who stood still were enjoying their rewards, a series of reprimands came from over there.
I saw a few soldiers of Cao Jun pressing down other disheveled people and walking out of the meeting hall.
These disheveled people were downcast at first, but when they saw the people in the hall, their eyes lit up and they shouted loudly, "General, help, general!"
"Huh?" Several generals who were still receiving awards froze for a moment. This is the men and horses in their battalion
"General, I am under Captain He's command! Don't you know me? I had dinner with you last time!"
"General, I'm Xiaowei Chen's subordinate. Captain Chen is my uncle, have you forgotten?" The disheveled men clamored for friendship.
Only then did the generals who received the award realize that this was really someone from their camp.
"What's the situation!" Before Cao Cao could speak, Cheng Yu over there scolded angrily, "Where is this place, and who are you waiting for?"
"General, save me!" Several disheveled people shouted loudly.
It turned out that they were soldiers in the camp, but they went to the city to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble when they were on duty. Now they are red-eyed because they lost the bet, and even killed someone. This was caught by Cao Jun, who was in charge of military discipline. It was a dead end, and now seeing his general, he naturally regarded it as a life-saving straw and called for help.
Now it's a lot of fun. How could those generals want to see them? You said don’t call, the gendarmerie will be able to catch you later, but if you call now, everyone will be finished.
"Prime Minister, I don't know them!" One of the generals was shrewd and immediately got rid of the relationship.
"Yeah, yeah, Prime Minister, I don't know them either! Who are you and do you know where this place is? Get out!"
"General, you really don't know me anymore, I am Wang Er!"
Let alone Wang Er, even Wang Da and the others dare not pay attention.
"Oh, isn't this someone from your army?" Cao Cao looked at the generals below playfully, "Come here, drag them out and chop them up for me, how dare you pretend to be a lieutenant in our army!"
Listening to Cao Cao saying that he killed those disheveled Cao soldiers, he panicked, "Prime Minister, we are really General Chen and General Wang's subordinates! If you don't believe me, look, Prime Minister, we still have the arrows in the army!" Someone said. Evidence was produced.
Someone over there soon handed him over to Cao Cao to watch.
Cheng Yu nodded, this is indeed the seal of the army.
"General Chen, General Wang?" Cao Cao looked at these people with a smile.
"Prime Minister, forgive me, forgive me!" Several people knelt down and kowtowed.
"I said before that one should be rewarded and punished clearly. You had some opinions just now. Now that you have received the reward, you can start punishing!" Cao Cao's face was like the weather in June, and it suddenly changed. "Come on!" Take down such criminals for me!"
Cao Cao pointed to the few generals who stood still below, and counted three culpable crimes. One was that they were incapable of commanding them, and the other was that they covered up their subordinates and accepted bribes. It should be the disheveled men who knew that Cao Cao would kill them just now. General Cao Jun pulled out all those unspoken rules for him. When and where, how much money you received, how much kickbacks you took, and how much empty salary you ate, all came out. It has always been the same truth since ancient times, no official can resist investigation, even Liu Mang's subordinate Zhuge Liang is average, even if Zhuge Liang doesn't take bribes, his family will also receive a lot of benefits because of Zhuge Liang.
So it's over once you check these few.
There is also a third one, which is to deceive Cao Cao.
The combined punishment for the three crimes was directly dragged out by Cao Cao to watch and beheaded.
"Prime Minister, spare your life, Prime Minister, spare your life!" Several generals knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Cao Cao.
"Mr. Cheng Yu, save me, save us!" Several people also shouted at Cheng Yu, the chief counselor beside Cao Cao.
Cheng Yu shook his head. He walked to the side of these generals and lowered his body gently. They were indeed not guilty of death, but they forgot that the reason why Cao Cao wanted to kill them was not at all.
It's that they didn't move before.
Several people were dragged out amidst the miserable sound, and soon someone came back with several heads in their hands.
"Hmph! Such moths should be damned for appearing in our army, Cheng Yu, didn't I ask you to be in the Military Law Department?"
"Cheng Yu is guilty!" Cheng Yu also knelt down and shouted at Cao Cao. Cheng Yu was also fined a year's salary.
But Cheng Yu is not worried at all, is the salary a lot for a year? For his Cheng family, it's just drizzle.
"Okay, Xu Huang, this army cannot be without generals for a day. You, Xu Huang, will be the commander of their subordinates temporarily, and I will find a more suitable person before reassigning them!" Xu Huang of the board said in words.
Xu Huang complained about Cao Cao at the beginning, but now he burst into laughter. No matter how Cao Cao arranges him later, Xu Huang has made money now. The military power is in his hands. Even if Cao Cao arranges newcomers to come, He, Xu Huang, can also arrange the elite of the army into his direct troops and leave the old, weak, sick and disabled there. Immediately kneel down and accept orders.
Look at Xu Huang who was beaten just now, and look at the rewarded heads over there.
One by one finally understood.
This is not trying to make trouble for Xu Huang, it's obviously going down in the dark! And those few who didn't move would die immediately. If there is nothing tricky about it, they wouldn't believe it if they were killed.
Sure enough, the biggest difference was that Xu Huang sent troops, so he received the reward. Although the others didn't send troops, at least he also started to prepare his subordinates to prepare for unpreparedness, and those who were beheaded were nothing. Those who didn't do anything, those who stood still.
All of them suddenly became enlightened. As expected, a companion is like a companion tiger. Prime Minister Cao's face can change as he says.
"Prime Minister is wise!" Even so, they had to kneel down and shout respectfully to Cao Cao. (to be continued..)
