The devil is coming

Chapter 474
The screams in the Academic Affairs Department have gradually subsided.
Gao Yi wiped the knife on the clothes of an adult who died tragically on the ground, sheathed the knife, and then walked out slowly.
He was a native of Yinlang County. He joined the army at the age of 16. He later joined the Marquis of Jingnan's personal guard, and then was sent to the army as a full-time staff general.
In fact, when he was sent to Zheng Fan by Marquis Jingnan at first, he refused.
Because that dispatch was really too ambiguous.
Are you an ally?
Logically speaking, they are just helping to build Shengle City.
But there was no return date in the military order.
The gap from being a full-time staff general in the Jingnan Army to working under a local military leader is a bit too big.
Although Uncle Zheng had already made a name for himself at that time, Gao Yi admired him, but admiration could not be regarded as food, nor could it be regarded as promotion. It was enough to admire him from a distance.
But no matter how fate is,
His troops,
It was eaten by Uncle Zheng.
Fortunately, the days in Shengle were not difficult, and they were even very happy.
The original Shengle City and the current Xueguan Customs were, to be honest, the kind of place that would be extremely painful for people from the Jianghu area, but for those in the military, it was definitely a good and comfortable place.
Because it has always implemented Songun politics, Qiu Pal has a first-class position here and enjoys first-class treatment and protection.
Later, as Uncle Zheng gained military exploits and rose up step by step, the original imbalance in his heart was long gone.
On the contrary, Gao Yi was very grateful for that fateful meeting, because when he was selected to go there, there were three other generals who also met the requirements, but they got the news in advance and pushed him to the front.
Now, they should be regretting their mistakes.
Gao Yi walked out of the door of the Academic Affairs Department,
I saw Uncle Zheng sitting on Pi Xiu.
For a time,
Gao Yi was in a daze,
It seemed that what he was facing was not the uncle, but the Marquis.
It is really,
My uncle and the Marquis really look more and more alike.
In fact, Gao Yi also felt that killing some teachers just for their imperial examination quotas was a bit excessive.
But in the final analysis, it was his own Xue Guan who was bullied.
Gao Yi, who had just killed someone,
I feel in a good mood, very happy.
"Uncle, I will finally come back to life!"
The Pixiu on his crotch took a step forward, passed Gao Yi, and entered the Academic Affairs Department.
Inside, there were corpses scattered everywhere.
Uncle Zheng watched some movies and TV series in his previous life, maybe because he was afraid of causing discomfort to people or just to save some money on the cost of becoming a human being, so the death scenes on the screen would be very "clean".
But in fact, it is actually very difficult to kill a person with one knife. With a "swish" knife, the person will be killed directly. It is really too simple to think. Even if it is stabbed, the person can hold his stomach and walk several steps.
Therefore, when people in the army kill people, they usually go up and strike at the opponent's gap with one knife. After cutting down the opponent, they go up and make up for it without hesitation.
This last knife can either be wiped on the neck, or inserted directly into the heart.
Therefore, there will be a lot of bleeding.
The appearance of the corpse was also extremely miserable.
Whenever Li Fusheng was in battle, he always liked to make himself look like he had rolled in blood. This was not because he did it deliberately, but because he killed so many people, it was splashed layer after layer.
Pixiu is not disgusted with the scene of the Shura field here, and is even a little excited.
When Uncle Zheng got off him and walked in front of him, Pixiu secretly bent his head, stuck out his tongue, and licked the blood on the ground.
It didn't dare to do such a thing in front of Zheng Fan, because Uncle Zheng would feel disgusted.
"Squeak... squeak... squeak..."
The boots under my feet made a slight sound as they stepped on the sticky blood of blood.
Uncle Zheng walked forward and stopped in front of the hall of the pledge room, which faced north and south.
There are two plaques hanging on the pillars outside the hall;
A piece of writing reads: Qing Suo reserves materials;
A letter was written together: I hope you will be reunited.
The two plaques were stained with blood. Not to mention, they were really pretty.
Before entering the threshold of the signed room,
Uncle Zheng turned around,
sat down.
Unconsciously, he began to like sitting in this position.
The princess once told him that General Nian Yao of Chu also liked to sit on the threshold. When discussing matters or eating, he had to find a place to sit on the threshold.
Marquis Jingnan was definitely not the first person to sit on the threshold.
Counting hundreds or thousands of years ago, people would have been sitting on the doorstep, eating bowls of noodles, smashing their mouths and chatting with the neighbors.
But those who serve as soldiers in modern times and have this hobby are basically imitating the Marquis of Jingnan.
Mao Mingcai also walked in. He looked at the corpses around him, took a deep breath, and looked at Uncle Zheng sitting on the threshold.
He opened his mouth and said:
"Is it enough?"
obviously,
The prefect of Yingdu was on the verge of becoming furious.
Uncle Zheng didn't answer, he just picked up the jade pendant that fell when an unknown adult was hacked to death, and smashed it at Pixiu who was licking blood in the corner.
Pixiu moved his hooves aggrievedly, raised his head, and did not dare to lick any more.
"Uncle Zheng, do you feel good after killing like this?"
Zheng Fan tilted his neck and made a slight crackling sound, but still did not answer.
"Why can't we wait any longer? Why can't we wait any longer? Even if we have to clarify the canonical punishment, we can still go through a process, and we are not in a hurry."
Zheng Fan opened his mouth and said:
"Master Mao, I am a soldier. No matter what I do, I am accustomed to acting vigorously and resolutely. I don't like to think things through in the long term."
"Uncle Hirano, you are disrespectful and contemptuous of the laws of the country!"
Uncle Zheng raised his head slightly,
Staring at Mao Mingcai standing in front of him,
There is no longer the gentle look of hello and me as before,
Instead, it became a bit colder,
"Master Mao, I understand better than you the importance of the imperial examination to Dayan, and I understand better than you the importance of the imperial examination to Your Majesty.
Such substitution fraud cases,
Master Mao is the prefect of Yingdu.
If you know but don't report it, you will be violating His Majesty's century-old plan!
If you don't know anything about it, you are derelict in your duties and incompetent!
Dare I ask Mr. Mao?
Which category does it belong to? "
"How presumptuous, Zheng Fan. I'm giving you a lot of love, so I called you uncle. In terms of official position, I'm above you. Why, what do you mean by this? You want me to give you too." Have you cut it?"
The clay figurine is also very angry, not to mention that the human hair master has been "washed" twice by Uncle Zheng.
They were all ordered to kill in front of him, and the people killed were the people he wanted to protect.
"Come on, come on, Zheng Fan, quickly order your men to kill me together. This Yingdu, it is you, Zheng Fan, who has the final say. I want to take a look, this Yingdu, the land of the Three Jins, In the end, it’s still not me who controls the world of Dayan!”
Looking at the excited Governor Mao,
Uncle Zheng just smiled softly and said,
look back,
He pointed at the two plaques behind him.
Road:
"No rules, no standards."
"Who is it? There are no rules!"
Zheng Fan clapped his hands,
stand up,
Take a step towards Mao Mingcai,
"Master Mao?"
Mao Mingcai stared at Zheng Fan.
"Prefect Mao?"
Mao Mingcai puffed up his chest.
"Mao Mingcai!"
"you………"
"I know you and what you want to do. You want to be like the civil servants of Qianguo. Let me, the warriors of Dayan, also teach you the rules."
"The state of Qian used culture to suppress military force. This is an unbalanced way. How can we learn it? But what you, Zheng Fan, did today deserve a sentence: Warriors are rampant!"
"Yes, then you should think of a way to establish good rules. Not to mention putting us warriors in a cage, at least put us in a square circle.
But what about you?
What do you do?
A good imperial examination has been turned into a place of filth and evil. If you don't pay attention to this rule, don't blame me for not wanting to abide by it. "
"Strong words make sense and confuse right and wrong!"
"Yes, but what can you do to me?"
Zheng Fan walked up to Mao Mingcai and looked at him like this.
"This time Uncle Ben entered the capital, he brought three hundred guards with him. You, Master Mao, are the prefect of Yingdu. Come on, quickly order people to capture Uncle Ben, take him into custody, and hold him accountable!
come on!
Playing wildly,
Do you think I can’t do this? "
"There's no reason for this, there's no reason for this!"
in fact,
Mao Mingcai's level is very high, otherwise, he would not be able to sit in the position of a minister, nor would he be sent to Yingdu to preside over the overall situation.
In the past year, Yingdu has been very harmonious. Even though Jingnanhou's commanding officer left Yingdu and moved to Fengxin City, there has never been any trouble in the rear;
Yingdu has always done a good job in all the transportation of food, grass, wages, and materials.
Mao Mingcai is indeed a capable person, with skill, scheming, and authority.
But no way,
What he is facing now is Uncle Zheng who doesn't follow any rules with you at all.
of course,
The most essential reason is that,
This is Yingdu.
If he were in Yanjing at this time, Uncle Zheng would never be so arrogant. Just because this is Yingdu, when the wind here blows to Yanjing, the shouts will naturally become smaller.
Mao Ming took two deep breaths, and even reached out to wipe his beard and hair.
He controlled his emotions, which also meant that he broke away from the rhythm of Uncle Zheng that he had entered from the moment Uncle Zheng ordered the slaughter of Xuezhengsi.
"Uncle Hirano, what you are doing is actually not to stand up for the few replaced scholars in your Xuehai Customs."
Zheng Fan said nothing.
"I deliberately made a fuss about this matter. I can actually think of what Mr. Hirano wants to do, but this is the general trend, the general trend, and it is unstoppable.
No matter the official, the court, or even His Majesty, no one will be allowed to block this trend!
you,
Uncle Hirano,
Not qualified either! "
They are both bastards who have been together for thousands of years. How can each other sing to the same tune? After tasting it, the taste will come out.
"Today, you killed the Academic Affairs Secretary and these people. Do you think you won't be charged for this when you arrive in the capital?"
Uncle Zheng suddenly reached out and covered his chest,
There was a look of horror on his face,
Road:
"Yes, I still want to go to the capital."
"..." Mao Mingcai.
Zheng Fan smiled,
Turn sideways,
Looking at Mao Mingcai,
Road:
"Please also ask Master Mao to teach me."
Mao Mingcai looked at Zheng Fan and murmured a few times. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond.
Uncle Zheng waved his hand,
Pixiu immediately stepped over and lowered his body.
Uncle Zheng turned over,
look around,
Because the two adults are here, and there are also Uncle Zheng's personal guards inside, no one dares to come over to clean up at the moment.
Even the family members of the adults who died here did not dare to send anyone over.
"Master Mao, tell me, if I want to stand up for my soldier who has been replaced in Xueguan, is it easy?"
"With your reputation, Uncle Hirano, you can do it easily."
"Then, what about those scholars who don't have the backing of someone as honorable as me? What will be their fate?
Originally, the opportunity to ascend to the emperor's gate was placed in front of them, but as a result, their qualifications were replaced by others;
You feel,
Is this fair to them?
Even if you, Mr. Mao, become an official now, with your qualifications and position, you don’t have to worry about your children and grandchildren being replaced when they take the imperial examination in the future.
If Ben said hello, the replaced spot would be returned, and they would have to make amends to Ben.
But there are still many Qian Shou in this world. Your Majesty's opening of the imperial examination is to give the ambitious and learned people among the Yan Shou and Guizhou Shou a chance to serve the imperial court, and to give them a chance to leap over the dragon's gate.
Ganren likes to hear stories about the number one scholar,
I have lived in the cold window for ten years without feeling the pain. I often go to Donghua Gate in my dreams.
There are countless stories about the love and hatred of the number one scholar among the people of Qian Dynasty, no, even among the people of our country, Yan. There will never be a shortage of their stories in teahouses and restaurants, even though our country of Yan did not have imperial examinations before.
Mr. Mao,
You said,
If the No. [-] Scholar did not come from the capital of Guizhou, but was arranged by these people, would the common people still like to hear the story of the No. [-] Scholar? "
"Mr. Hirano, could it be that you want to tell me that today, you just killed people to vent your anger out of pity for those who were replaced, and had no other intention?"
Mao Mingcai asked with a sneer.
Zheng Fan shook his head,
Road:
"No, I don't know them, and I have a title, and my children can inherit my title in the future.
I can still continue to make meritorious deeds, and I may be able to win a hereditary and irreplaceable title. If I have a second or third child in the future, I can also provide shade for them.
I now,
Just want to be pretentious,
Otherwise, the blood of a lot of academic and administrative officials on the ground around would have been wasted. "
Mao Mingcai realized that he couldn't figure out the person in front of him at all. Even if you knew what his purpose was, you still couldn't understand his behavior.
At last,
Mao Mingcai could only say:
"Have you had enough trouble, Mr. Hirano?"
When enough trouble has been caused, it’s time to clean up the mess and start dealing with the aftermath.
Zheng Fan raised his head,
Let out a cry of regret,
Road:
"No."
After all,
Pixiu galloped on all fours under his crotch and rushed directly out of the gate of the Academic Affairs Department.
The surrounding soldiers immediately sheathed their swords and followed their uncle.
Only Mao Mingcai was left alone.
The pile of corpses is a bit messy.
This,
What exactly does that mean?
At this time, Ran Min led people into the Academic Affairs Department, came to Mao Mingcai, cupped his hands and said:
"Sir, Mr. Hirano went to East Street."
"East Main Street?"
Suddenly,
Mao Mingcai trembled.
exclaimed:
"He is going to the east gate, he is going to the camp outside the city, how dare he, how dare he!"
Mao Mingcai reached out and grabbed Ran Min who was standing beside him.
"You go……"
immediately,
Mao Mingcai pushed Ran Min away.
The body is shaking a little,
"It's too late, it's too late, it can't be stopped, it can't be stopped."
"Sir, without your order from the governor and without the military order from Marquis Jingnan, Uncle Pingye wouldn't be able to mobilize the soldiers and horses in the camp outside the city, right?"
Mao Mingcai raised his head,
Looking at Ran Min,
Word by word:
"Last time, he didn't have the Tiger Talisman either."
……
Today's Yingdu City is destined to not be peaceful.
Many families, including those in Prince Cheng's Mansion, felt a little worried.
Everyone has become accustomed to the rules of the game. Even if the Yan people come and become the real masters of this place, the Yan people are still willing to play this game with them.
Therefore, everyone is very cooperative.
But today,
An uncooperative person came.
Because I sat on the threshold long enough,
Because Chen Daxia didn't kill him on the roof,
Therefore,
The tragic scene in the Academic Affairs Department has been quickly reported to the desks of various forces in Yingdu.
For a time, many people were stunned.
You know, the last time the Yan people massacred officials in Yingdu like this was when the Marquis of Jingnan was here, and those officials who failed to complete the military orders from the rear were directly beheaded in public.
But that was wartime, not now.
And the person today is not the Marquis of Jingnan.
Situ Yu did not return home, but sat in the carriage. After hearing the report from his subordinates, a look of fear appeared on his still green face.
He originally wanted to borrow this popular uncle's sword.
who ever imagined,
This knife kills people, but it's so crazy.
Situ Yu subconsciously looked at the old eunuch beside him.
asked:
"How will he end it?"
The old eunuch's eyes also flickered for a while.
He opened his mouth and said:
"Making trouble, making a big fuss."
……
Outside Yingdu City, there are four camps.
The East Gate Camp is stationed by a unit of the Jingnan Army, and the Ximen Camp is stationed by another Yan Army.
The two camps in the north and south were stationed by Jin troops.
After the Yan people occupied the three Jin lands, in order to meet the needs of defense and war, they recruited a large number of Jin troops and Jin soldiers. However, during the war, the Jin troops were used as flankers and auxiliary troops.
At this time,
Uncle Zheng rode Pixiu and rushed directly to Dong Daying outside Yingdu City.
It stands to reason,
Anyone who enters the military camp without warning shall be shot for trespassing.
however,
After the soldiers on the sentry tower and below saw that the man rushing towards us was actually a man in golden armor riding a Pixiu, no one dared to carry out this military order.
Currently, there are only four people in Dayan who can ride pure-blooded Pixiu!
In addition, the news that Uncle Hirano entered the city last night has spread to the military camp.
After all, Hirano Bo is an idol in the Yan army.
Simultaneously,
Several captains and guards in this camp had planned to invite Uncle Zheng to come and have dinner in the afternoon, or go to the best restaurant in Yingdu. Of course, if Uncle Zheng could be invited to inspect the camp, then It couldn't be better.
"It's Uncle Hirano."
"Uncle Hirano."
Zheng Fan did not wait for the announcement outside the camp gate. Instead, after the guards at the camp gate moved out of the way, he drove straight into the military camp.
It caused great commotion for a while,
Many off-duty soldiers came directly from the tent or nearby.
And then,
The garrison generals of the Dongmen Camp who had just received the news were also rushing here. However, Uncle Zheng did not wait for those generals to come over.
Just raise your hand,
shouted:
"According to the military order of Prince Jingnan, I entered Yingdu to track down the rebels. Now the rebels in Yingdu want to rebel. I hereby order you to mount your armor immediately and follow me into the town to suppress the rebels!
Follow orders immediately. Anyone who disobeys orders will be killed! "
For a time,
All the surrounding Jingnan soldiers knelt down on one knee.
shouted in unison:
"Here!"
There was only one person who did not kneel down, but looked at Uncle Zheng sitting on the Pixiu with some confusion, and that was the garrison general of the East Gate Camp.
only,
When Zheng Fan's eyes focused on him,
He finally knelt down,
Loudly:
"The last general takes orders!"
Immediately,
The Dongmen Camp first dispatched three groups of messenger troops to deliver orders to the other three military camps outside Yingdu.
"Prince Jingnan ordered that the Ximen Camp be closed tightly and no one is allowed to go out!"
"Prince Jingnan ordered that the North Gate Camp be closed immediately and no one is allowed to go out!"
"Prince Jingnan ordered that the South Gate Camp be sealed immediately and no one is allowed to go out!"
Subsequently,
Thousands of black-armored cavalry, led by Zheng Fan, rushed to the east gate of Yingdu.
The gates of Yingdu City were wide open at this time, even if the defenders on the city wall saw an army approaching.
Because Gao Yi had already led a group of personal guards to guard the city gate after Uncle Zheng left the city.
Therefore,
These thousands of Jingnan Army knights entered the city directly from the east gate without any hindrance.
Uncle Zheng, who led his army into the city again, sat on the Pixiu.
I felt a little dazed for a moment,
This scene,
It's really too familiar.
in those days,
In this way, Marquis Jingnan led the Jingnan army directly into Nanwang City.
That was the first time he met Marquis Jingnan.
And today,
The one sitting under his crotch is Pixiu, the one on his body is also golden armor, and the one surrounding him is also the Jingnan Army.
A sentence suddenly appeared in Uncle Zheng's mind:
Before you know it,
I already,
Live your life.
