Qingzhou Prefecture, General of the Prefecture.

Today's Murong Yanchao looks no different from the past. He came to the yamen like usual and handled the trivial official duties at hand as usual. But in fact, those subordinates who were familiar with his habits had already seen from his subtle actions and his actions that he would look out from time to time that he was not in mind, and was looking forward to something. Everyone also knew what he was waiting for.

Yesterday, the prefect Murong was disgraced in front of Sun Tu, and then he called Du Heng, the commander of the Xiang army, to the front. Although no one else had listened to the conversation between the two, he could guess that he would arrange for Du Heng to deal with Sun Tu and squeeze him out of the barracks.

In the eyes of those officials, with the power of the prefect and Du Heng's hands, it is absolutely not difficult to do this. Maybe this time we can take the opportunity to take down Sun Tu and others, and then find a reason to do it once and for all. Even if there is any change in the middle, there should not be too much storm.

But the result of the incident was beyond everyone's expectations. After noon, a man ran into the yamen in a panic expression. He was so panic that he could not even bother to report to the magistrate. When he rushed into the yamen, he started shouting: "There is an accident in the yamen, and there was a conflict there... there was a conflict there. General Du was captured alive by Sun Dujian's people, and Sun Dujian also ordered him to be beheaded and displayed in public..." After calling similar words several times, he had already stumbled to the public and gasped.

When the officials around the government officials heard this, they all ran over and looked at the Murong Prefect, who had a look of panic and disbelief, with a look of fear and disbelief. Everyone wanted to say something, but they didn't dare to speak for a moment.

After a long moment of stunned tillage, Murong Yanchao stood up suddenly, rushed out of the door in three steps, bent down and grabbed the collar of the visitor, and roared: "What did you say? Du Heng was taken down by Sun Tu in the military camp? What did those soldiers and horses do for food? Where did Sun Tu get such courage?"

This series of questions burst out, and all saliva fell on the face of the visitor, but this person could not answer the Murong Prefecture at all. He could only whisper after hesitating for a moment: "I dare not deceive the palace. This matter is absolutely true. I saw General Du being taken down outside the camp. The soldiers of the wing army had also put down their weapons and did not dare to attack Sun Dujian..."

Murong Yanchao's hand slowly let go, and his body began to tremble: "It's all a group of ungrateful wolves who are ecstatic and unfamiliar! Okay, is he going to take back all the military power in just one day..." This result really made him unacceptable. He is still a little dizzy and his body is even more shaky, as if he will fall down at any time.

Seeing this, Jing Yiming quickly stepped forward and supported him, shouting, "What are you still doing? Go and invite the doctor to treat the mansion..." As he said that, he helped Murong Yanchao back to the room and sat down. The others did not dare to touch their eyebrows when they saw this. Except for someone who ran to invite the doctor, the others scattered, but their expressions were different than before.

In fact, Murong Yanchao's body was not a problem. He only had anger and had some abnormal reaction. At this time, Jing Yiming kept helping him to tick his chest and relieve his anger. After another wave of persuasion, he finally calmed down a little, but the look of worries and anger in his eyes did not diminish: "How could this be... I told Du Heng yesterday that he must do his best, why would he still be in Sun Tu's hands..."

Jing Yiming lowered his head and smiled bitterly. What's the use of pursuing this matter now? But he still advised: "Maid, it seems that we have underestimated Sun Tu's courage and means. No wonder he dared to openly be enemies with us as soon as he arrived in the city yesterday... But these things are too late to worry about. The most urgent thing now is to not let Sun Tu kill Du Heng in public, otherwise the situation will only become worse and worse. By then, the morale of the army and even others will turn to Sun Tu, and it will be difficult to win back the city."

"No...not bad! I must not let him kill Du Heng under the guise of military law!" After calming down, Murong Yanchao quickly understood that he could speak in Qingzhou City by relying on his iron fist. If Sun Tu could really overwhelm him several times, those guys who were right to his leader would have to change the party.

Thinking of this, he could no longer sit still, so he immediately stood up and said, "Let's go, let's ask the people in the yamen to go to the military camp to get Du Heng back!" This is a battle that he must not defeat.

"But your body..." Jing Yiming asked with some concern, but the other party waved his hand: "I can't care about it now, otherwise it would be your and my doomsday!" After saying this, he had already stepped out. Seeing this, Jing Yiming had to catch up with him quickly, and then gestured to the confidants of the prefects outside the door. They immediately understood and quickly ran to the outside to gather people.

The servants in this government office looked more like an official army than the wing army in the military camp. At least with Murong Yanchao's order, more than a hundred servants gathered in the lobby in a moment, and the two of the officials in the government office were already waiting there with their swords and guns. After learning that they were going to the military camp to seize people, these people were not worried at all, so they quickly followed Murong Yanchao's horse and rushed out of the government office.

At the same time, there was also a rumor among the people in the city that the new Sun Dujian wanted to compete with the prefect, which was combined with the news that Sun Dujian had made a big fuss yesterday that yesterday had caused speculation and disagreement.

The military camp of the Xiang army.

The dozens of soldiers stood nervously and confusedly on the open space in front of the barracks, not knowing what to do. Sun Tu took Du Heng just now and shot their robes without hesitation, so they were still frightened until now.

Many people looked at Qi Desheng, who was also standing in front of the barracks with begging eyes, but he no longer dared to enter the door at will, so he could only put his expectations on Lin Chong. After all, this person seemed to have a great friendship with Sun Tu. At the same time, he was also worried that once the matter was reported, the prefect Murong would be furious. What should he do if the two sides had a dispute?

As an old man in the Qingzhou military camp, Qi Desheng has seen with his own eyes that many superiors and generals were framed and killed by the prefect Murong for various excuses. Although Sun Dujian is completely different from those people today, he acts decisively and ruthlessly, in this era of civilized military use, will the generals really dare to be enemies with the head of the government, or even completely fall apart? Aren’t he afraid of being pursued by the court afterwards?

Lin Chong, who had the same concerns, was also the one who had high expectations. At this time, Teacher Lin was looking at Sun Tu with a worried face and said, "Sanlang, you are so rude. Isn't this an enemy of Murong's prefect? ​​He will definitely not give up. What should I do?"

Sun Tu, as the person involved, looked relaxed: "Brother Lin, do you think I can let him let me go if I compromise? As far as I know, none of the military generals before me dared to go against him, but how many of them were broken into Murong Yanchao's hands? And you don't know one thing yet. As early as yesterday, I went to the prefect's office to show off with him. What I want is to completely control the military power of Qingzhou in my hands. How can I allow others to snore on the side of the bed!"

After hearing Sun Tu say this famous saying by Taizu of the dynasty, Lin Chong's heartbeat immediately accelerated, and then looked at the other party and said, "You... have decided to fight with the prefect Murong to the end?" At this moment, he realized that Sun Tu in front of him was already so strange. He was no longer the kind-hearted little brother in the ancient road in Tokyo.

Sun Tu had no intention of hiding in front of Lin Chong, and nodded immediately: "Yes, actually, when I was transferred to Qingzhou by the court, I had no choice since I was transferred to Qingzhou. Murong Yanchao and I were destined to be enemies. Since that is the case, soldiers are very fast, so I can't give him the opportunity to prepare, and I will catch him off guard when I come here."

Lin Chong could only sigh, and he said this, how could he persuade him?

Yang Zhi asked in confusion at this time: "Sanlang, since you have made this decision, why do you still have to keep Du Heng's life temporarily? I am only worried that Murong Yanchao will come to take someone after learning about this matter, and it will be another trouble at that time."

Lin Chong and Lu Da were also a little puzzled at this point, and they all looked over. Sun Tu smiled: "I won't kill him now, but I plan to punish him again tomorrow. There are two purposes. One is to gather the morale of the army: Brother Lin said before that the Xiang army became like this, in addition to Murong Yanchao's deliberate suppression and dismantling, Du Heng, the commander-in-chief, is also 'indestructible'. I think the soldiers in the army must have hatred for him. As long as the news spreads, the soldiers of the Xiang army will rush back to the camp at noon tomorrow to see what happened. Then I will be able to gather the Xiang army in the city again." He is the Qingzhou governor after all, and he has the responsibility to command and train troops, so he naturally has to gather all the troops in this army as soon as possible.

"What about the second purpose?" Luda asked.

"It's very simple. I'm waiting for Murong Yanchao to come to save people." Sun Tu's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "Although I was in the government office yesterday, I was in the government office after all, and it had little impact on him. And today, if I could be in the military camp and in full view of the public, I think his years of prestige would be greatly reduced. At that time, if I take advantage of the victory, I will definitely defeat him!"

Lin Chong and the other two changed color again, and then they realized that Sun Tu was so dedicated that he didn't know if the prefect Murong would be trapped.
