Zhao Kaishan is dead.
He died on his bed, in despair and pain.
Die with the dream of the final blow unfinished.
Death is worthless and meaningless.
After his death, the second leader of the Liberation Army was not his son Zhao Yucheng, but his clan brother, Zhao Xiang.
Of course, there is no official appointment yet, because there is still one last hurdle to overcome.
Zhao Yucheng.
After Zhao Kaishan died and the dust settled, Zhao Xiang was sure that no one could interfere with his actions, so Zhao Xiang immediately ordered that the city gates be sealed first and entry and exit were prohibited until he solved Zhao Yucheng's problem until it falls.
Then, he sent troops to surround Zhao Yucheng's official office, brought him in front of him, and let him see with his own eyes that he became the second leader of the Liberation Army in front of his father's corpse.
Let him see this desperate scene with his own eyes.
Even if you kill someone, you must also kill your heart.
The lesson that Zhao Kaishan did not teach Zhao Yucheng will be taught to Zhao Yucheng by his uncle Zhao Xiang instead of Zhao Kaishan, letting him know that people's hearts are sinister, letting him know the cruelty of political struggle, and letting him know that naive people always die. fastest.
Politics is not something you can get around just by getting hot.
But what frightened Zhao Xiang inexplicably was that Zhao Yucheng was not in the official office.
"Why isn't he here? Didn't I ask you to keep an eye on him? What on earth did you do? Are you dead?"
The subordinate responsible for tracking Zhao Yucheng lowered his head and did not dare to speak. He really did not dare to say that he was slacking off.
Who knew that today was the day to take action?
Zhao Kaishan didn't say hello to us before he died, right?
Zhao Xiang became furious and ordered them all to be killed. A group of people yelled and begged for mercy, but Zhao Xiang remained unmoved.
Zhao Yucheng must be found immediately, otherwise the variables will be too great!
Zhao Xiang ordered that the whole city search for Zhao Yucheng.
As for why Zhao Yucheng is not in the official office, it is actually easy to explain.
Not everyone in the Zhao Mansion is averse to money. A young man who had been cared for by Zhao Yucheng happened to be returning from outside when Zhao Xiang led troops into the manor. He knew something was wrong when he saw this posture, and immediately went to Zhao Yucheng. He went to the government office where he was and told Zhao Yucheng about the incident.
Zhao Yucheng was shocked and annoyed when he learned that he was shocked, and immediately decided to return to the house to find out.
He was very worried about Zhao Kaishan and his mother, brothers and sisters in the mansion, and didn't know what Zhao Xiang was going to do with his troops.
Are you going to rebel?
But at this time, his subordinate Zhou Liao grabbed him.
"Since Zhao Xiang has led his troops, he must have been prepared. If you go back now, you are throwing yourself into a trap. It is better to leave the city as soon as possible, gather the army, and lead the troops into the city, so that you can be safe!"
Zhao Yucheng felt that Zhou Liao's opinion was reasonable, so he nodded, led his cronies and soldiers in the government office and quickly rode out of the city, heading towards the White Army's military camp outside the city.
The Tabai Army first followed Zhao Kaihe. After Zhao Kaihe was dismissed, he followed Zhao Zuoliang. After Zhao Zuoliang was dismissed, he followed Zhao Yucheng. Although the days were short, it was considered Zhao Yucheng's own army. Zhao Yucheng felt that he could definitely lead this army.
With the army in hand, you will have the confidence, and you will not be afraid of Zhao Xiang, and you can go head-to-head with the selected vanguard army controlled by Zhao Xiang.
So he rushed into the Tabai Army camp, came to his military tent and issued an order to assemble the troops, and went with him to Linyi City to find Zhao Xiangxingshi for questioning.
But instead of waiting for the troops, he waited for the supervisor Zhao Jiashi.
"What's wrong? Yucheng? Why are you gathering troops to go to Linyi?"
Zhao Jiashi asked Zhao Yucheng with a surprised look on his face.
Zhao Yucheng said anxiously: "You don't know something. Zhao Xiang actually led troops to my home for some reason! I suspect that he has a plot, and I must lead troops back to find out! Please help me gather the troops immediately!"
"Ah? This is actually happening?"
Zhao Jiashi was shocked, and then his face was full of anger: "What on earth is Zhao Xiang going to do! Someone come! Get it for me!"
Zhao Jiashi gave an order, and a large number of heavily armed soldiers rushed into the military tent and started killing the people around Zhao Yucheng. Cries of killing were also heard outside the military tent.
The fighting was very fierce. The close followers and soldiers around Zhao Yucheng were caught off guard and were unable to parry, and were quickly killed. Zhao Yucheng rushed left and right and was unable to get out, so he was knocked to the ground and captured alive.
"why why!!!"
Zhao Yucheng was tied up by Wuhua Da, and he glared at Zhao Jiashi with his eyes cracked.
"Why? I still want to ask Zhao Xiang!"
Zhao Jiashi's face was full of displeasure: "I clearly said that I would capture you in the city and not let you come to the military camp. Fortunately, I kept it in mind, otherwise I would have really summoned the army for you! He did it so carelessly, I think he also He is no better than you! Is it right or wrong to choose him as the leader?"
Zhao Yucheng was stunned for a while, a look of despair filling his face.
Are they all enemies?
Have they all united?
Just to deal with yourself?
"You...you are all in cahoots?"
Zhao Jiashi looked at Zhao Yucheng with an unexecutable expression on his face and sighed.
"Don't blame me for being ruthless, Yucheng. If you want to blame me, blame you for being too serious and not knowing how to advance or retreat. As long as you say something soft, we won't make such a move. But since Zhao Xiang went to the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion, it means... The leader has passed away."
Zhao Jiashi sighed and waved his hand, asking the soldiers around him to take away Zhao Yucheng, who looked dull.
Zhao Yucheng finally met Zhao Xiang in his home, a group of Zhao relatives, his mother, younger brothers and sisters who were under guard, and Zhao Kaishan's body lying in the mourning hall that had been built.
He looked at Zhao Kaishan's body trembling all over, and rushed to Zhao Kaishan's body like crazy. His hands were tied, and he pressed his upper body against Zhao Kaishan's body and cried loudly.
He cried for a long time.
Zhao Xiang watched him cry for a long time and did not object.
When Zhao Yucheng finished crying, he looked at Zhao Xiang with red eyes.
"What did you do?"
"The leader died of illness, and I did the rest."
Zhao Xiang did not deny everything and said: "Yucheng, don't look at me like that. I am helpless. As long as you listen to my advice, I will not do this. Who told you to investigate the matter to the end?" , not making any concessions?"
Zhao Yucheng gritted his teeth and said, "Is what I did wrong?"
"To be fair, it's not wrong."
Zhao Xiang touched his remaining conscience and gave Zhao Yucheng a fair evaluation of what he had done. Then he changed the subject and said, "But you have made too many people unhappy. There are too many people who are unhappy." , you are destined to be unable to do it.
Look at the uncles here, every one of them followed your father in the war. Why do they support your father but not you? Why would you rather support me than replace you? You have lost people’s hearts! "
"The human heart? Only the hearts of these uncles and uncles are the human heart? Aren't the general public human beings? Aren't their hearts the human heart?"
Zhao Yucheng gritted his teeth and was extremely angry.
Zhao Xiang was silent for a while and shook his head.
“If we say no, it’s not. If we say yes, it’s yes.”
"you……"
Zhao Yucheng rushed towards Zhao Xiang like crazy and wanted to bite him, but was stopped by the guards, who threw him to the ground and suppressed him severely. Seeing her son being bullied, Mrs. Zhao screamed and rushed forward to protect her son with her own body. , the scene was chaotic.
Zhao Xiang couldn't stand it anymore, so he waved his hand and asked more guards to come forward to take Zhao Yucheng away and imprison him, and then left Mrs. Zhao behind.
"Zhao Xiang! What else are you doing! Do you want to kill my son?!"
Mrs. Zhao looked at Zhao Xiang with resentment.
Zhao Xiang didn't want to quarrel with her, so he threatened: "If you do as I say, Yucheng will be safe and sound. If you don't do as I say, I will torture Yucheng severely in front of you until he dies." until!"
After hearing this, Mrs. Zhao's face was full of horror.
"Zhao Xiang! My officials treat you badly! How dare you do this!!!"
"Times have passed and everything has changed. Even though my brother is dead, the Liberation Army will still exist, so please recognize the reality. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee what will happen."
Mrs. Zhao was helpless in the face of Zhao Xiang's threat. She walked to her young son and daughter and hugged them and cried for a long time.
"I promise you, you can't lie to me."
Zhao Xiang smiled.
"Don't worry, as long as Madam cooperates, Madam and the children will be very safe."
