"Shooting comrade? Brother Cai, are you talking about me? I just accidentally misfired with the three-eyed gun in my hand. Who knew your men would be so miserable... This Do you want to blame me too?"
Ye Mingsheng looked at the familiar figure below the city and said in a calm voice:
He and Cai Pengbo both served in the Xuanwu Army. They were both commanders of the seventh-grade first battalion. Naturally, they had met each other and they were relatively familiar with each other. However, Cai Pengbo believed that he was Xu Zhaojie's confidant and felt that he would be promoted sooner or later. , so he thinks highly of himself.
Even when facing ordinary military attachés of the same rank in the Xuanwu Army, they often behaved in a condescending manner, which was extremely annoying. For Xu Zhaojie's sake, no one would say anything to him, but secretly, they all He cursed this thing like a bloody nozzle.
"snort!"
Cai Pengbo was furious at Ye Mingsheng's ridicule, but he didn't know how to refute Ye Mingsheng, so he could only snort bitterly.
After a moment of silence, he remembered what his mission was for coming here this time. Instead of entangled with Ye Mingsheng on this issue, he said in a cold voice: "The commander has received an order. There is a group of Japanese pirates who intend to do harm to your troops." , specially ordered me to come to support, Ye Mingsheng, if you don’t open the city gate quickly, what are you waiting for?"
Hearing Cai Pengbo's poor excuse, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but have a contemptuous smile on his face, and said in a calm voice:
"Thank you very much for your kindness, Commander-in-Chief and Brother Cai, but I won't bother you two because I have defeated the Japanese pirates and have been routed out of Luwang Town. Brother Cai, you can go back and report back to Commander-in-Chief! "
"Ye Mingsheng, you're going to defeat us if you say we're going to defeat you? Commander, since you asked me to come to help you, just open the city gate obediently. Why talk nonsense like this? Do you want to disobey military orders?"
Cai Pengbo, who was riding on the horse, drew out his sword and shouted at Ye Mingsheng. The threat in his last words was self-evident.
As the oriole in Xu Zhaojie's plan of "The mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole follows", Xu Zhaojie planned well for Cai Pengbo and secretly followed Ye Mingsheng's men. As long as Ye Mingsheng fought with the Japanese pirates, he would be able to reap the rewards. profit.
Whether Ye Mingsheng resisted the Japanese pirates in the end, or the Japanese pirates killed Ye Mingsheng, he could lead the cavalry to join the battle before the battle was over, and intervene in the battle in the name of annihilating the Japanese pirates, easily He easily killed Ye Mingsheng and the Japanese pirates from the Black Dragon Society, and then blamed the Japanese pirates for killing Ye Mingsheng, saying that Ye Mingsheng died in the rebellion.
Even if it's a little hypocritical, you can say that he wiped out the Japanese pirates, avenged Ye Mingsheng, and earned a wave of fame in the Forbidden Army...
Although the plan was well thought out, unfortunately, the military situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and the situation changed too fast!
Although Cai Pengbo's cavalry marched very fast, after hearing that the Japanese pirates had attacked Ye Mingsheng in Luwang Town, he personally led the cavalry in just one hour to cover a day's journey of Ye Mingsheng's troops and arrived at the gate of Luwang Town. .
But he was still late. Ye Mingsheng had already completely defeated the Japanese pirates, which made his actions morally untenable, and he was in vain!
Although the name is invisible and intangible, it is very useful. Without the name of exterminating Japanese pirates, Cai Pengbo, despite his absolute strength, crushed Ye Mingsheng, but he was too afraid to take action. After all, military discipline and national laws are there. There it is!
Of course Cai Pengbo can give orders to his subordinates to attack the city. In less than a cup of tea, he can get Ye Mingsheng's head for his master, Xu Zhaojie!
But the crux of the problem is that Ye Mingsheng is not alone. He has hundreds of subordinates. It is easy to break through Luwang Town and kill Ye Mingsheng. It is almost impossible for a person to leave Luwang Town in his life.
It is not even necessary for Ye Mingsheng's subordinates to expose this matter, because Cai Pengbo himself is not sure that after this matter is completed, all of his thousand cavalry will be loyal to him, and there will be no rumors at all. Get out...
And as long as a little bit of news gets out, Cai Pengbo will be finished. The crime of killing hundreds of his colleagues with weapons is definitely a serious crime. Not only will he be executed, but his entire family will be executed, and maybe even the Yi tribe!
By that time, Zhenyuan Marquis Xu Zhaojie, as the main messenger behind the scenes, would have been very happy not to mention stepping in to protect him, but also not to make a clear relationship with him, and to add insult to injury.
Although Cai Pengbo is Xu Zhaojie's confidant and very loyal to Xu Zhaojie, in the end he is not a dead soldier of Xu Zhaojie's family, and he can make such a big sacrifice for Xu Zhaojie's order!
As far as the current situation is concerned, the "plan of the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind" that Xu Zhaojie originally planned for him has inevitably gone bankrupt. Therefore, in order to fulfill Xu Zhaojie's order, Ye Mingsheng was killed.
The fearful Cai Pengbo, even though he had the ability to break through Luwang Town, couldn't really do it. He could only curse in his heart over and over again, those Japanese pirates are a bunch of trash, stupid pigs, they were killed by Ye Mingsheng so quickly. After getting it done, he threatened to attack in order to try to get Ye Mingsheng to open the city gate himself.
As long as he enters Luwang Town, he will have the opportunity to find any excuse to create a conflict with Ye Mingsheng's men, and then arrange for two trustworthy people to kill Ye Mingsheng. Although this is easy to be criticized, it has a lot of consequences. Risk, but with Xu Zhaojie's back, there is a high probability that big problems can be reduced to small ones...
He wouldn't take such a big risk of storming Luwang Town and killing his comrades!
The abacus in Cai Pengbo's mind was rattling. How could Ye Mingsheng not see his little thoughts?
Seeing Cai Pengbo baring his teeth and claws under the city, but still daring to take action, Ye Mingsheng had already realized what he was afraid of about this guy. A sneer appeared on his angular face, and he said loudly to Cai Pengbo:
"Brother Cai, Mr. Ye knows what you want to do. If you have the guts, you can lead your troops to attack the city. I, Ye Mingsheng, have this great head, waiting for you to come and get it!"
After Ye Mingsheng finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the soldiers who came from the military camp climbed onto the city wall of King Lu Town one after another, holding bright swords and sticks, and assumed a fighting posture... ·····
