Chapter 61, There is no good banquet
An order from the state pastor?
Ding Tong and others looked at each other, and suddenly smelled an unusual smell.
Why didn't he say it at the beginning, but waited until halfway through the banquet when he and all the soldiers were almost drunk before announcing it?
Looking around, I don't know when the personal soldiers they brought have disappeared.
The atmosphere quietly became solid.
Xun Yu seemed unaware and continued: "Liu Shijun wants to integrate the entire army and rearrange the defenses of the counties. I hope that all the generals can cooperate."
Zhang Liao had known about this for a long time. Hearing this, he acted as if nothing had happened and was still drinking by himself.
The general next to him saw this, looked at him thoughtfully, and then returned to normal.
The ones who had the biggest reaction were Ding Tong and the others, because they respected Ding Yuan, but now they were asked to hand over their military power without any preparation, and they were a little at a loss for a while.
The other two people looked at Ding Tong and asked in a low voice: "General, what should I do?"
Obviously, Xun Yu's sudden attack caught them off guard. Ding Tong is not only the backbone of the two, but also the captain, the highest military commander of Yanmen County.
Ding Tong thought a lot for a while and made a decision quickly.
The transfer of military power cannot be made, at least it must be delayed until the brother reacts.
So he walked out of the queue, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Yanmen County is the gateway to Bingzhou, and the soldiers guarding the city cannot be easily mobilized. It is better to wait for Liuzhou Mu to send another army to change the defense, and then discuss this matter."
Xun Yu said calmly: "General Lao Ding doesn't need to worry about this matter. Ambassador Liu has his own arrangements."
In fact, he had no intention of letting Ding Tong and others go from the beginning. These words were just to force the other party to disobey, so that he could seize military power in a dignified manner.
The union of states is the foundation of the lord. Civil and military leaders must obey orders unanimously in order to achieve great things.
As for whether there would be manslaughter, that is beyond the scope of consideration. There is no room for kindness in the fight for hegemony, and sometimes standing in the wrong team means death.
Ding Tong heard the imperative meaning in Xun Yu's words, so he stopped talking and said in a deep voice: "The general's safety is in Yanmen, I'm sorry to obey my order, let's go!"
After saying that, he tossed the wine glass in his hand, stood up and walked out.
The opponent was obviously well prepared and had a reputation for righteousness. At this moment, only being in the military camp with his Wolf Cavalry at his back could make him feel at ease.
Clang…
The sword flashed and blood splattered.
Ding Tong clutched his neck and looked to the side with an unbelievable look on his face. A person who least expected him suddenly drew his sword. He didn't even have time to react.
"Zhang Liao, you..."
The sword was so sharp that it completely cut off his carotid artery. No matter how hard he tried, he could not stop the wound from expanding. Before long, the blood had stained his shirt red.
At the same time, there was a sound of neat footsteps, and a group of soldiers filed in. These were the personal soldiers Zhang Liao had brought into the city.
Zhang Liao said coldly: "Disobeying orders is tantamount to treason, so behead!"
He has no psychological burden to launch a sneak attack. This is a political game, not a martial arts battle. Nothing is ever fair.
"Zhang Liao, how dare you do the following..." Two of Ding Tong's confidants were shocked by this sudden scene. They pointed at Zhang Liao and were speechless.
Zhang Liao said coldly: "The following person is guilty? I hope you two will think carefully about who is the following person."
The two of them were stunned. Zhou Mu was the supreme ruler of Bingzhou. They disobeyed Zhou Mu's orders and should be executed according to the law.
"The general is willing to obey orders."
The two looked at each other and quickly realized that the top priority was to save their lives first.
Zhang Liao looked at Xun Yu, but what he got was four plain words.
"Military orders are like mountains!"
Xun Yu was still a humble gentleman, with a gentle and jade-like appearance, but his gentle voice revealed a strong murderous intention.
These two people are a hidden danger and cannot be left behind.
As for the last one, it seems that he is not Ding Yuan's confidant, but he can stay.
"Fight him."
The two of them obviously understood the meaning of Xun Yu's words and knew that the other party was unwilling to let them go.
Zhang Liao stopped his soldiers from advancing, and at the same time raised his sword to face the two men.
Xun Yu was like an outside spectator, sipping tea while watching the three men fighting swords.
Although his swordsmanship is not very good, he still has good taste. It can be seen that Zhang Liao is not blindly confident, but has the ability to fight one against two.
When the civil servants sitting in another row saw this scene, they were all panic-stricken, but no one dared to act rashly for fear of being harmed.
A moment later, accompanied by two screams, the two men fell into a pool of blood one after another.
Xun Yu looked at Gao Shun again. This man was like a statue, turning a blind eye to the tragic situation around him.
Zhang Liao cupped his hands and said: "Gao Shun did not collude with Ding Tong and others. He is loyal to Lord Zhou Mu and your Majesty."
Although his personal relationship with Gao Shun was not very deep, he still admired this colleague who was steady and very good at military training.
And as he said, Gao Shun was a solitary person and never formed cliques with others.
Xun Yu smiled and said: "Wen Yuan misunderstood. I want this general to go with you to recruit the rebel generals to avoid trouble."
Zhang Liao was overjoyed, but fortunately he was not killed.
"The general will obey his orders."
Then he looked at Gao Shun.
The latter was silent for a moment, then slowly stood up.
"The general will obey his orders."
Xun Yu nodded with a smile, and then waved his hand, as if a subordinate presented him with the documents prepared in advance.
Zhang Liao was stunned.
Is the new governor so confident that he will succeed?
Even the paperwork has been prepared in advance!
A trace of awe could not help but arise in my heart.
He took the document and said respectfully: "I will retire at the end of the day."
Xun Yu watched the two men leave, then looked at the civil servants and said with a smile: "It's just to kill the two rebel generals, you don't have to worry."
Everyone looked at each other and wanted to take back their previous compliments.
This is not a benevolent and righteous gentleman. He killed several generals when he first arrived. He is clearly a cruel official.
But he said: "Your Majesty is absolutely right. Ding Tong and others disobey orders and should be executed according to the law."
"Make you wise."
"Fortunately, the envoy came in time, otherwise it would have caused a catastrophe."
There was one wave of flattery after another, completely without the backbone of a scholar.
Xun Yu didn't care, as long as these people performed their duties, there was no need for them to intervene in other matters.
On the other side, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun each led their own soldiers and galloped out of the city, walking side by side.
"Have you met Governor Xun beforehand?"
"good."
Gao Shun immediately stopped asking any more questions.
Zhang Liao couldn't help but advise: "With your talent in military training, you will definitely be put to great use by Commander Liu. Don't imitate Ding Tong and others."
The biggest difference between Liu Bei and Ding Yuan is that if you win with Liu Bei, you will win, and if you win with Ding Yuan, you will lose.
Gao Shun was silent for a moment and replied: "I am loyal to justice."
