Hundreds of households in Liaodong, covering the light with one hand

Chapter 308 The murderer, Hong Chengchou (2)

"Call me to come and see you?"

Sitting on the horse, Yuan Chonghuan, who was in full armor, looked at the messengers and said leisurely: "The soldiers and horses of Henan Province are here to support Hong Chengchou in this battle, and they are not his personal soldiers. Now when the war is intense, I don't think about how to retreat from the enemy. But you asked me to go and see you? Why do you want to vent your anger on me?"

"Master Yuan, if you have any questions, you can go with the younger ones to the commander's camp and ask him. The rest of the younger ones don't know." The soldier who ordered the order was neither humble nor arrogant. He was well-founded in the face of unwarranted accusations.

"Go down with the order and set up camp on the spot!" Yuan Chonghuan waved his hand and asked his cavalry and soldiers to set up camp. Then he dismounted and said, "Take me to Hong Chengchou's place. I want to see if there is a Hongmen Banquet there?"

To be honest, Yuan Chonghuan felt that he could not do anything to him with Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting.

It's ridiculous to say that everyone is a civil servant, and Yuan Chonghuan himself has a higher official rank than Hong and Sun. It's just that they are on missions and have the title of imperial envoy, which makes them superior to Yuan Chonghuan - in fact, if it is a battlefield, Due to differences, Hong and Sun both had to listen to Yuan Chonghuan.

After all, the achievements of the Liaodong War are there. Except for Wang Qi's inhuman and terrifying record, the others have no advantage in front of Yuan Chonghuan.

Boom boom boom! ! !
  Following the gathering drums, Yuan Chonghuan was led into the camp of Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting.

Turning to look at the guards who were left outside the tent, Yuan Chonghuan turned back to look at Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting who were sitting on top, and sneered: "Why, you two didn't convene the soldiers in the camp to discuss the siege, but instead laid down the plan here. What’s the point of banquets?”

"Master Yuan, please sit down. We have something to discuss." Sun Chuanting was polite. Although he had lost his former calmness and confidence at this moment, he still did not lose his dignity as a civil official. He bowed his hands to Yuan Chonghuan and made a gesture of invitation. , please take a seat at Yuan Chonghuan.

Looking between the two of them, Yuan Chonghuan smiled and sat casually on the chair.

Snapped!
  The sword was placed on the table.

As if startled by the sound of the sword falling on the table, Hong Chengchou narrowed his eyes slightly, and Hong Chengchou, who had been silent until now, spoke: "Master Yuan, do you know how much our entire army will lose in this battle because you arrived late and missed the opportunity to fight?"

After touching the cold tea cup with the back of his hand and straightening his sleeves, Yuan Chonghuan said, "Loss? Mr. Sun is here today, so I will emphasize it to you again."

Looking at Hong Chengchou with his eyes, Yuan Chonghuan's voice has cooled down, low and solemn: "The Yellow River is flooded and the river surface is unstable. For the sake of safety, the army must move around the city. The delay of ten days and a half is inevitable, and you, Hong Chengchou, What? In order to win the first battle, the troops were sent out in a hurry regardless of the fatigue of the generals and the incomplete personnel. After the army arrived at Fushan, they did not use the heights to intimidate, but directly attacked the strong city, causing the army to collapse at the first touch. Even though Lord Sun later led Even if the troops arrive, it will be of no use, and the defeat is certain."

He raised his hands and saluted in the direction of Beijing City, and said coldly: "I want to say a disrespectful word here. If your Majesty takes me as the leader, you will definitely wipe out this mob within a month. As for you, Hong Chengchou? Hey, go again." Let’s wait for four or five years for local and state capitals to figure it out!”

"Yuan Chonghuan," Hong Chengchou's eyes had completely turned cold, and veins were popping up on his forehead: "I have already written a report to the court. You have to bear the main responsibility for the defeat of this battle. You are arrogant and delaying the war. Take responsibility for slacking off!”

"What a coincidence." Yuan Chonghuan stood up without any sign of panic: "I have also written a letter to the court. The letter explains how you, Hong Chengchou, greedy for power and rashness, how you underestimate the enemy and are arrogant, how you ruined a good situation! You can't survive it! How long will it take before you return to Beijing for trial, and it will be up to me to clean up the mess in Pingyang Mansion!"

"You two, the situation is not out of control yet. If we take a long-term plan and gather our forces together, we will be able to fight against the rebels!" Seeing the smell of gunpowder getting stronger, Sun Chuanting hurriedly stood up to smooth things over.

Although Sun Chuanting doesn't want to see Yuan Chonghuan, at this time, if the new troops can really turn the tide of the war, then everything may turn around! Hong Chengchou could no longer listen to Sun Chuanting's persuasion and shouted directly outside the tent: "Come here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain of the big tent was opened from the outside, and a group of soldiers with uniform armor and swords and halberds came in.

At the same time, Yuan Chonghuan also shouted: "Yuan Jiajun, come in!"

But unlike Hong Chengchou's words, after Yuan Chonghuan's words had faded for a while, there was still silence outside the tent.

"Hong Chengchou! You really dare." At this moment, Yuan Chonghuan finally realized that Hong Chengchou was going to kill him, and he would pick up the sword on the table in the next second.

"Get it for me!" Hong Chengchou ordered, and the armored soldiers standing in the tent immediately stepped forward, took off Yuan Chonghuan's weapons, tied his hands behind his back, and knelt on the ground.

"When you entered the tent, the men you brought outside the tent had already been captured." Hong Chengchou's face was full of pride: "In other words, when you stepped into the camp, your death date had arrived. !”

"You dare to kill me?" Yuan Chonghuan was pinned to the ground, his armor and helmet had been removed, his hair was scattered, and his neck was still strangled. His eyes were fixed on Hong Chengchou not far away: "I am the leader of the Liaodong War of Destruction. Meritorious official! He is the Governor of the Grain Road of Henan Province, and he is the general of Fengguo who was personally appointed by the emperor! You dare to kill me? You are a small fifth-grade civil servant, a civil servant of Tongzheng Yamen with no merit! You dare to kill me? "

"If you were the one who was responsible for the destruction of the country in Liaodong, I really wouldn't dare to touch you, but you are not!" Hong Chengchou was already murderous and pointed at Yuan Chonghuan who was kneeling on the ground: "Behead him!"

"Slow down!" At this time, Sun Chuanting had to stop him.

If Yuan Chonghuan is killed, the court's investigation will be trivial. The main reason is that there are more than 10,000 soldiers brought by Yuan Chonghuan a few miles away!

Together with the mutiny, the lives of Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou will not be able to compensate for it!
  "Yanyan! There are still more than ten thousand soldiers and horses!" Sun Chuanting was extremely anxious: "What can I do?"

"The soldiers and horses belong to the imperial court, not Yuan Chonghuan! I will explain the situation on my own, and if anything happens, I will suppress it with iron blood! There must be no hesitation!" After Hong Chengchou answered Sun Chuanting's words, he turned around and shouted: "Behead him immediately! "

"Kill me, how will you explain to the court?" Yuan Chonghuan was already frightened at this time, and he could see the real murderous intention in Hong Chengchou's eyes.

Unfortunately, even when he was the most angry, Yuan Chonghuan just wanted to drive Hong Chengchou back to the capital.
  Now, why do you kill people so often?
  "cut!"

As Hong Chengchou shouted loudly.

bass! ! !
  The knife flashed.

In Yuan Chonghuan's horrified eyes, his head fell to the ground.
