I, make my own

Chapter 83 Dingkun Situation
Dingkunzhou, the border.

Dingkun frontier camp.

a certain barracks.

"Father, are they really going to join the Great Chu Dynasty?"

A young man dressed in school captain's armor looked at the burly middle-aged man sitting in the main seat, with a somewhat unattractive look on his face.

His name is Tu Lei, and he is the son of Tu Sanmeng, the left chief of Shahai King.

Tu San shook his head violently, with a serious expression.

"I didn't plan to do this at first, but now the attempt to attack the imperial capital and murder the emperor has completely failed, and the imperial court has grown in power. They have already shown their intentions in this regard."

"At present, the forbidden army and King Min's army are encircling us, and their strength alone exceeds [-] of us, not to mention the powerful combat power of the forbidden army."

"Once the fight starts, we can only last for three to five days at most. After all, there is no wall to guard this side of the camp."

"Therefore, joining forces with Gao Song's army is the only way to survive."

Tu Lei frowned, gritted his teeth and said: "We are people from the Great Zhou, how can we join the foreign enemy? If they really do this, Dingkun Prefecture will definitely be devastated!"

"Father, what are your plans?"

"As a father, I naturally don't want things to develop to such a point. Not to mention that life under the fence is extremely difficult, even with Tu Sanlin's stupid brain, even if he votes in it, it will be over sooner or later."

Tu Sanmeng snorted coldly, obviously he didn't think much of Tu Sanlin, the Shahai King.

Tu Lei's eyes lit up, and he said expectantly: "Then we will go to the imperial court? Cooperate with the imperial army and destroy them?"

Tu Sanmeng nodded, and said in a low voice: "Father has been thinking about this all the time. His Majesty the Emperor has extremely high methods. In just a few months, he completed his own administration, cleared away the obstacles in the court, and eliminated four officials. prince."

"Although the current situation is not very clear, the disappearance of the feudal king is the general trend. As the relatives of the feudal king, if we don't want to die, we must either surrender to the enemy or make a great contribution to the court."

"It's not my father's wish to surrender to the enemy, so I can only submit a certificate of honor to the imperial court. The heads of Tu Sanlin and Zhu Zilei are the best choices!"

Tu Lei's expression tightened, and there was a look of urgency in his eyes.

"But father, Gao Song's main force will rush to the border in one day, and we are running out of time!"

Tu Sanmeng was about to speak when a voice suddenly came from outside.

"Zuo Changshi, the prince and General Zhu called a meeting."

"understood."

Tu San responded fiercely, and then stared at Tu Lei with a serious expression.

"For my father's sake, I planned to get in touch with Commander Cheng and wait until nightfall to start. But now that they have suddenly called a meeting, I'm afraid there will be a showdown."

"So, go find Ziguang and let him bring him to Huishan Camp..."

……

Military meeting hall.

The generals of the frontier army and the generals under the command of King Sha Hai sat on one side, looking at each other with cold eyes, obviously the relationship was not very harmonious.

On the innermost side, General An Kun Zhu Zilei and King Shahai Tu Sanlin sat on the left and right, facing the crowd.

"Gentlemen, our soldiers are going through life and death for the imperial court, but now, the imperial court has sent troops here to destroy us. What's the reason?"

Zhu Zilei stared at the crowd and spoke in a cold voice with a gloomy expression.

"The tyrant has no way, and the court is cold-blooded. If you give us a name of treason at will, you will suppress it. May I ask you, can we bear such tyranny?"

As soon as Zhu Zilei finished speaking, three generals stood up one after another.

"Unbearable! Generals, everyone, we have made unimaginable sacrifices for the peace of the border. How many brothers have we died over the years? How many brothers have not seen their families for several years or even ten years?"

"But what about the imperial court? They actually issued an order to kill all the soldiers of our Dingkun border army. How cruel is this?!"

"That's right! Just half an hour ago, I received the news that all of my family members have been imprisoned! And on trumped-up charges! How can such an imperial court deserve our allegiance?"

"That's right, King Shahai came here with his troops to help us defend against the threat of the King of Great Chu. But the court is not good, but instead slandered us for conspiring against King Shahai. How can this be tolerated?!"

Listening to the three people's words, the faces of some unknown generals could not help but change slightly, and their eyes were full of surprise.

At this time, a general sitting at the front of the frontier seat slowly got up.

This person's figure is not very burly, and his face is relatively elegant, looking a bit frail.

But as the person got up, the hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked over involuntarily.

Gaiyin, this person is the second-in-command of Dingkun Border Gate - General Ningkun Wu Xu.

Wu Xu doesn't seem to be a showy person, and he never competes for Zhu Zilei's prestige on weekdays. Even his own military exploits will put Zhu Zilei first, which seems a bit flattering.

But none of the frontier generals dared to underestimate Wu Xu, because if Wu Xu hadn't taken care of Zhu Zilei's face, with Wu Xu's strategy, General An Kun's position would have changed hands long ago.

"General Wang, where did you learn about the imperial court's killing order? Why has the general never heard of it?"

After Wu Xu got up, he didn't look at Zhu Zilei and Tu Sanlin, but stared directly at the three who spoke just now.

The officer surnamed Wang changed his face slightly, and he deliberately made up lies to refute, but he still didn't dare to face Wu Xu's indifferent stare.

Zhu Zilei's right hand pressing the armrest tightened for a moment, and his face suddenly darkened.

Wu Xu ignored the two and continued to speak.

"There is also General Lin Pi. Right now the camp has been surrounded by the imperial army, and the birds cannot cross. Where did you receive the news half an hour ago?"

"As for Captain Lu's words, whether they are true or not, I don't need to say too much, everyone should know it well."

At this point, Zhu Zilei couldn't bear it any longer under Tu Sanlin's frightened and angry stare. He slapped the armrest hard and got up angrily.

"Wu Xu! What do you want to do?!"

"What do I want?"

Wu Xu finally turned his head to look at Zhu Zilei, sneering again and again.

"Wu still wants to ask General Zhu, what do you want to do?"

"You colluded with King Sha Hai, and it's fine to seek rebellion. But now you still want to collude with foreign enemies and harm my people in Dazhou. How can you let Wu bear it? How can you let my thousands of frontier soldiers do it?" Tolerate?!"

"You! You spitting blood!"

Zhu Zilei was anxious and angry, pointing at Wu Xu and berating him angrily.

"Blood spit?"

Wu Xu sneered, and suddenly shouted out.

"Bring it up!"

Not long after, two soldiers walked in with a middle-aged man with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

"His confession, his secret letter, do we need to show it to everyone?"

Seeing Zhu Zilei whose face turned pale suddenly, Wu Xu said coldly.

Zhu Zilei's expression changed for a while, and then he regained his composure, and sat down slowly.

"Okay, since we have made everything clear, then we don't need to talk nonsense."

"In the eyes of the imperial court, we are all rebels. If we are rebels, none of us will survive!"

"This general has agreed with King Shahai to join Gao Song's army, capture Dingkun Prefecture, and then work with Gao Song to establish a brand new dynasty!"

"At that time, we were all heroes of the founding of the country, and it was no problem to seal the borders and crack the soil, and make kings and princes!"

"Everyone, whether you want to die or seek glory and wealth, you choose for yourself!"

After hearing Zhu Zilei's words, the people in the hall looked at each other, and no one spoke for a while.

"Establish a new dynasty? Prosperity and wealth? Heck, thank you all for thinking it out, you mediocre fish really dare to think about it?"

Wu Xu sneered, his eyes full of contempt and disdain.

"Wu Xu! Do you dare not kill you as a general?!"

Zhu Zilei's anger that had just been suppressed suddenly flared up again.

"Dare, why don't you dare? Aren't the thousand knives and axes ambushing around the hall just for us disobedient people?"

Wu Xu laughed lightly, with playful eyes.

Hearing this, Zhu Zilei and Tu Sanlin were both startled, with a bad premonition in their hearts.

"Sun Ming!"

Zhu Zilei shouted loudly.

Outside the hall, a strong general strode in.

"exist!"

Zhu Zilei's expression relaxed, and when he was about to give the order, he saw Sun Ming's head flying up suddenly, and then he saw several soldiers on duty at the gate of the hall suddenly shut all three gates.

The confidants of Tu Sanlin and Zhu Zilei were shocked and rushed towards those soldiers.

At the same time, Tu Sanmeng's eyes flashed, he got up suddenly and took a step forward, piercing the rapidly unsheathed sword into Tu Sanlin's chest.

After a series of screams, the hall returned to silence, but the oppressive atmosphere and sudden shock made people feel chills.

A few soldiers actually killed eight or nine masters of seventh and eighth rank in an instant, this is too fantastic!
And that Tu Sanmeng, he actually killed King Shahai who was his elder brother, this...

"You, who are you?!"

Zhu Zilei's heart trembled, and he pointed at the soldiers with a look of shock and anger.

"I knew these guys were so bad, so why bother to go all the way."

The soldier named leader muttered a word in displeasure, then waved his hand casually, and two silk threads suddenly appeared on the front and back of Zhu Zilei's neck, and then intertwined and twisted, Zhu Zilei's head flew up without any surprise.

Looking at this scene, the eyelids of all the rest of the people in the hall jumped. Zhu Zilei is also a late eighth-rank strongman, why doesn't he even have the power to resist?

"Okay, you can take care of the rest."

"Thank you imperial envoy for your help!"

Wu Xu cupped his fists respectfully towards the soldier. He didn't know the specific identity of the soldier, but only judged from the diet that the soldier should be a woman...

After Wu Xu straightened up and looked at Tu Sanmeng, the latter hurriedly spoke first.

"General Wu, I am definitely not a traitor to the enemy. After receiving the summons for the meeting just now, I deduced that they might kill the loyal and patriotic people, so I asked my family to dispatch the Huishan Camp to respond. It's just that I didn't expect... ..."

"These, General Wu can order someone to investigate..."

Tu Sanmeng's forehead was sweating, a little grateful and a little nervous.

"I believe you."

Wu Xu smiled slightly, as if not surprised.

"But speaking of it, we are all wearing the body of sin now. If we want to be pardoned, their heads are not enough."

Tu Sanmeng's heart moved, and he asked tentatively, "General Wu is saying?"

"The main force of Gao Song's army will arrive tomorrow, but the [-] forwards led by his son-in-law Liu Fengwu have already arrived."

"Since those two guys are going to join Gao Song's command, it's better to use the trick and kill Liu Fengwu's [-] strikers first!"
