Chapter 722: The Emperor's Order Five
"Jiang Chao, you are not as good as a pig or a dog. If you had not had my father-in-law's help, you would have died in vain in prison. Now you are repaid with grudges and harming him. You are not worthy of being a human being."
The commander who led the Baima Sect was Jiang Chao. He was very young and about the same age as Yan Yi. His father was once the deputy commander of Yuwen Zhen's personal soldiers. He served for many years. In a war, Yuwen Zhen was surrounded by heavy troops and had to break through. His personal soldiers on both sides fought to the death. Although he successfully broke out, he was also seriously injured. Most of the five hundred personal soldiers were killed in battle. Jiang Chao's father also died in that war.
Yuwen Zhen is a very kind person. Jiang Chao is bold and has no assets. After his death, he was an orphan and widowed mother, and his life was difficult. So he recruited Jiang Chao into his army. For several years, he had more care and teachings, just like his own nephew.
But some people are ultimately a jackal who cannot feed them. They have difficulty filling their desires and only interests in their hearts, but no affection.
Jiang Chao is such a person. He was promoted to the commander of Yuwen Zhen’s army for several years. With a person like him who has no talent and ability, it is already very good to be able to be the commander of the commander in just a few years. Yuwen Zhen’s care and promotion of him is not bad.
But even so, Jiang Chao was not grateful at all and was extremely dissatisfied with the official position he had obtained. His betrayal was not that Zhao He used his high official position to win over, but that he took the initiative to rely on it.
The reason why Yuwen Zhen went to the camp tonight was that the person who came to invite was Jiang Chao. It was not Jiang Chao. Yuwen Zhen might not go. If he didn't go, he would naturally not die.
When the enemies meet, they are very jealous.
Jiang Chao was a person who was incapable and afraid of death, so he did not rush to the forefront of the team. So after fighting with Li Xun's army, the two sides fought for a long time. Only then did Yan Yi accidentally see Jiang Chao. He was extremely angry and pointed at him with a knife and shouted angrily.
Jiang Chao looked at Yan Yi's man-eating face and was so scared that he took a few steps back. In his heart, he shouted casually: "Yuwen Zhen was killed by Anqing Kingdom, what do you have to do with me? If you want to take revenge, go find Anqing Kingdom, don't..."
Jiang Chao quickly realized that he had lost his words and hurriedly stopped, but it was still too late. His voice was loud. Although in this noisy scene, the sound could not be heard much, and he was suppressed by the shouts of killing, some of the imperial guards who were closer to Jiang Chao could still hear clearly what they said just now.
These people stopped their movements and looked at Jiang Chao with a shock and incredible look.
Although Yuwen Zhen was in charge of the Imperial Army for a short time, he was the long-time general on the battlefield who had been famous for many years, and was also the father-in-law of the Crown Prince Zhao Xun and the father-in-law of the future. In addition, after taking charge of the Imperial Army, Yuwen Zhen greatly improved the welfare and benefits of the soldiers of the Imperial Army through the Crown Prince Zhao Xun, and severely punished several officers and generals who bullied others and came from aristocratic families in the army. Therefore, Yuwen Zhen established his prestige in the army in a very short time and gained the support of the vast majority of people.
Entering the imperial city tonight and launching an attack on the Eastern Palace. What is the real purpose? Most of the imperial guards do not know the details. An Guoqing took Yuwen Zhen's military talisman and conveyed the plot of Hengshan King Zhao Ke in the name of the general in charge. All soldiers of the imperial guards immediately entered the imperial city to quell the rebellion.
Many people think that they are quelling the rebellion as a just person. Now after listening to Jiang Chao's words, they understand that after a long time of doing so, they are actually an accomplice of this coup, and Yu Wen Zhen, the general of the Imperial Army who is very popular with them, has also been murdered.
The news soon spread among the 4,000 imperial soldiers at the scene, causing an uproar. Many people spontaneously stopped fighting. Seeing this, Li Xun immediately understood that he did not take the opportunity to attack, but hurriedly directed his subordinates to retreat for a distance and maintain a calm confrontation with the other party.
Li Xun's intention is very obvious. If he can integrate this army, it will be of great help to himself.
Li Xun said to Yan Yi: "Yan Yi, the soldiers of the Imperial Army, how do you think of your father-in-law?"
Yan Yi thought Li Xun was questioning Yuwen Zhen's character, so he shouted angrily: "Li Xun, you are not unaware of my father-in-law. His temperament and character are not convinced and sincerely supported by anyone who does things under him."
Li Xun raised his fist and hammered Yan Yi, snorting coldly: "I just ask Yuwen Zhen how highly he is in the army. Why are you yelling? I have no place to come out when I feel angry. I will hit my head against the wall by myself, and don't use labor as a punching bag."
Yan Yi also responded to Li Xun's punch and said angrily: "You are so naughty and don't say it clearly, can I know what it means?"
"That's your idiot."
"Don't be fucked by it."
Zou Meng hurriedly spoke out to persuade him to make peace, but he was really afraid that they would fight.
Li Xun kicked Yan Yi with his foot and asked in a low voice: "Since your father-in-law has a high prestige in the army, if you have a chance later, you can shout a few times and call on the other side to see if you can pull them over."
Yan Yi also responded to Li Xun: "Your idea is good. I'll give it a try later, maybe it will work."
The two of them whispered there for a while, and finally they both laughed thornyly.
Zou Meng looked at Li Xun and Yan Yi with a wry smile, and secretly cursed the two bastards in his heart. It turned out that the two of them were playing there, which made him think that they were going to fight and have an internal strife.
"General Jiang, we have heard what he said just now. Give me a clear word. Is what Yan Yi said true?"
More than ten generals walked up to Jiang Chao and surrounded him. The deputy general Hu Yun, who was led, looked at Jiang Chao coldly and questioned him in a deep voice.
Hu Yun is nothing, but his clan brother Li Xun is very familiar with Hu Xian. His father was the steward of Liu Jie's mansion. He had been with Liu Jie for the rest of his life and had this relationship. With Hu Xian's insistence, Liu Jie recommended him to work in Longyou and made considerable contributions in the Second Longyou War. After the war, he was promoted to three levels and transferred to Jiangnan to serve as the deputy commander of the defense of a state, and served as the fifth-rank general of the military. From joining the army to now, from an ordinary soldier to a fifth-rank general of the fifth-rank general, this speed has been quite fast in just over three years.
