Seeing Xu Huanwen die in front of his eyes, Jia Cong let out a long breath.
The three people in charge who planned to ambush him have all been killed by him, and this tone can be regarded as coming out.
The death of these three people was also a huge loss to the second prince.
Especially Qu Yingzhe, who is his number one think tank, true confidant, and right-hand man. Once the news reaches the capital, the second prince will probably go crazy with anger.
Even Concubine Zhou, once she knew that Zhou Hao was dead, would definitely cry and complain to Emperor Longqing, hating Jia Cong half to death.
Jia Cong was well aware of these possible situations, but he didn't care.
They are here to kill themselves, and it would not be too much to kill them. No one can tell their fault in this matter.
Even Emperor Longqing could not accuse himself of anything.
I was just fighting back, just protecting myself.
As the saying goes: I will not offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will offend them.
Chunlan stepped forward and said: "Sir, the battlefield has been cleaned up. A total of 4,637 enemy people have been killed. We only have more than 30 minor injuries on our side, which does not affect our actions. We will be fine after a little rest." ”
Li Biao smiled and said: "Sir, after taking the intermediate Dali Pill, the personal combat power of the soldiers has soared, and the overall strength has been greatly improved. Even without grenades, they can win against them."
Jia Cong nodded. Although he invested a lot of money this time, he had a truly powerful guard.
With these two hundred soldiers guarding him, plus Li Biao, Qingwen, and Chun Xia Qiu Dong, the world can be conquered.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel proud.
He smiled and said: "Through this emergency, everyone's reaction ability and strength have been verified. You have done a good job, and I am very satisfied. Write down everyone's achievements and distribute the rewards."
Li Biao cupped his hands and said: "Yes, my subordinates will handle this matter properly. Sir, this matter has happened. When should we set off?"
Jia Cong thought for a moment and said, "It's not urgent. There's one more thing to do. I'll leave after it's done."
Qingwen asked curiously: "Master, what else can I do?"
Jia Cong said: "Now that Xu Huanwen is dead, it's time for us to go to Xuzhou to raise an army to investigate and kill the prince of the dynasty, but it is almost like a rebellion. Even if the Xuzhou magistrate did not know about it, it is still suspected of oversight.
We stopped by and ransacked the Xu family, eradicating the roots without leaving any further trouble. This time, Li Biao, Chunlan, and Xia Zhu, you three will lead a hundred soldiers and go with me. Qingwen, Qiuju, Dongmei, the three of you, along with a hundred soldiers, stayed on the ship to guard. "
"Yes, I obey."
Everyone agreed and went down to prepare.
The reason for doing this is, firstly, because I don't want to leave any trouble in the future. If I don't have clear ideas, I will be robbed and killed. If I just let the Xu family go indifferently, it is not in line with my principles of doing things.
The second is that he can better hide the existence of the special forces by venting his anger openly and ransacking his home.
In the future, if I use assassination methods to kill certain people, no one will think of me.
In the eyes of outsiders, his strongest support is his own soldiers who are invincible against a hundred.
Assassination or anything like that has nothing to do with me.
After a while, the team was ready and waiting on the shore with their horses.
Lin Daiyu saw that Jia Cong was taking people away, so she followed him.
"Brother Cong, where are you going without telling your sister?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Sister Lin, I am going to Xuzhou to raise troops to investigate the crime, ransack homes and exterminate families. The scene is a bit bloody and cruel, almost like a massacre. You will definitely not be able to bear it when you see it, and you will probably have nightmares, so I If I don’t tell you, just stay on the boat and wait for me to come back.”
Lin Daiyu hesitated for a moment and said: "Brother Cong, why don't I follow you and have a look? I've never seen what it's like to ransack a house. Can't I just watch and not do anything?"
Jia Cong said: "Sister Lin, it is very cruel to confiscate the house and exterminate the family. Kill all the men, women, old and children, leaving no chickens or dogs alive. Do you really have the heart to watch that scene? Can you really hold back and not plead for them?"
"this······"
When Lin Daiyu heard what Jia Cong said, she began to hesitate. Thinking about that kind of scene was unbearable, could she really stand it?
"Brother Cong, haven't you already killed the leader of the army? Can't his family be spared?"
At this time, Xue Baochai, Shi Xiangyun and others also came over. After hearing Lin Daiyu's words, they turned to look at Jia Cong.
Jia Cong shook his head and said: "Sister Lin, if we are the ones who lose the battle, do you know what will happen to you? If you are lucky, you will be snatched back by the officials and used as playthings, and the others will be taken away by the rebel soldiers. From humiliation to death, no one can be spared.
Now that I have won, why should I let his family go? Even if he lets it go, his descendants will still regard me as the enemy who killed their father. Once they have the chance, they will kill me for revenge. I am not afraid of them dealing with me, but I am afraid of them dealing with you. I cannot leave any trouble in the future. "
After hearing Jia Cong's words, everyone's expressions changed, and they all felt a little scared.
They are all young ladies from a big family. They usually don't go out or step out of the second door, so they are well protected.
How could they know the cruelty of war? Even if they heard it talked about, it was just a story. This was the first time they had seen the cruelty on the battlefield.
Lin Daiyu thought for a while and then said: "Brother Cong, I understand. I will not interfere with your actions. I will just go and take a look. I want to know what kind of cruel method it is to confiscate a house."
Seeing Lin Daiyu's insistence, Jia Cong did not refuse anymore. It would be better to let her see the cruelty of reality. After all, she would be the head of the family in the future.
"Okay, then come with me. Only bring your eyes and keep your mouth on the boat."
Shi Xiangyun chuckled and said, "Sister Lin, give me your mouth, and I'll take it back to you."
Lin Daiyu glared at her and said: "Girl Yun, I think you are itchy. I will deal with you when I come back. Just wait for me."
Xue Baochai said: "Brother Cong, you must be careful."
Jia Cong said: "I understand. Just wait on the boat with peace of mind. We will be back soon."
Jia Cong got on his horse, knocked the horse's belly with his legs, and the horse ran forward first.
Lin Daiyu followed Jia Cong, and the others followed closely behind. More than a hundred riders ran into the distance with a "rumbling" and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
Tanchun said: "I really envy Sister Lin that she can stay with Third Brother. When I get back, I will also practice horse riding and follow Third Brother out in the future."
Shi Xiangyun said: "There's me, there's me, I also want to practice horse riding. Sister Lin's riding is so beautiful, she really looks like a female general."
Xue Baochai rolled his eyes and said angrily: "For those of you who spend three days fishing and two days drying nets, forget it. Sister Lin has been practicing hard every day these years."
Xichun nodded and said, "Sister Lin practices almost all morning every day, and only plays with us in the afternoon."
Dayu'er said: "I don't let you follow me, it's for your own good. War is not a joke. You also saw the battle last night. It's good to win. Once we lose, we will all be robbed." , the consequences are worse than death.
I was snatched away by Qingwen. Fortunately, I met you. Otherwise, I don’t know how miserable it would have been. There are not many people in the world who treat people as well as I do. "
Qingwen smiled and said: "Da Yu'er, you have to thank me well. If I hadn't snatched you back, the fate of the three of you sisters would not have been so good. If you really wanted to marry Hong Tai, it would be a big deal." She is a widow, and now I don’t know whose hands she has fallen into.”
Da Yuer smiled and said: "That's really what you said. Next time I will be your host and treat you to a drink."
When everyone heard this, they all laughed.
······
Outside Xuzhou City, a group of cavalry galloped over.
The "rumbling" sound of horse hooves was deafening, making the earth tremble, and the vibration made people's chests feel tight. The pressure coming towards the face made it difficult to breathe, and the whole body trembled, making it difficult to support.
The officers and soldiers at the city gate were astonished and froze on the spot for a moment, forgetting to close the city gate.
Before the city guards could react, Jia Cong and others had already arrived at the city gate. It was too late to close the city gate.
Li Biao shouted loudly on his horse: "Ning Guogong came to Xuzhou in person and refused to get out of the way."
"What? Ning Guo Gong, why did Ning Guo Gong come to Xuzhou?"
"It's Duke Ning Guo who's coming. Get out of the way quickly and let Duke Ning Guo pass."
"Ning Guogong is my idol and the person I admire the most. I never expected that I would be able to meet him today. I am so lucky."
Jia Cong and others rushed straight into Xuzhou City without stopping and headed straight for the Yamen of the state government.
Seeing Jia Cong and his party disappear from sight, the city guard general Yan Zhen felt a little suspicious.
Last night, General Manager Xu of Xuzhou Camp left Xuzhou with an army of 6,000 people. When it was almost dawn, only more than 1,000 defeated soldiers who had lost their armor came back. I don’t know what they were doing.
Now Ning Guogong suddenly came to Xuzhou, looking menacing. Could it be related to Manager Xu?
Could it be that Manager Xu had a fight with Ning Guogong? Defeated by Duke Ning Guo?
Yan Zhen was startled by his own thoughts. This is impossible no matter how you think about it, right?
"Tou, what's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
Yan Zhen shook his head and said, "It's nothing. Do you think Ning Guogong looks like he's coming with bad intentions? Could it be related to Manager Xu?"
"Mr. Xu is probably doing some private work. It's just the first time I've taken so many people out. It seems I've suffered a big loss. It's really unimaginable that six thousand people can't defeat them. What a bunch of trash."
"Wait a minute, you mean Mr. Xu was beaten by Ning Guogong? How is this possible?"
"It is said to be impossible. How dare Mr. Xu provoke Mr. Ning Guo?"
"It's hard to tell. It's too much of a coincidence that Ning Guogong appears here. These things come together and make people worry."
"Why do you care so much? Yes or no, it has nothing to do with us little people."
······
Xuzhou City, within the government office.
Seeing Jia Cong and his entourage rushing in aggressively, no one among the government officials dared to stop them.
Cui Shiming, the prefect of Xuzhou, got the news and hurried out to greet him.
Looking at the young general in front of him, dressed in pitch-black armor, with a stern face and a murderous look, he couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart.
He had heard of Jia Cong's reputation, but why did he suddenly come to Xuzhou? And he also looked like he was raising an army to accuse him.
I shouldn't have any issues with him. Could anyone provoke this murderous god?
He was thinking in his heart, but his movements were not slow. He came closer and bowed his hands in salute: "I'm the official, Cui Shiming, the prefect of Xuzhou, is here to pay homage to Duke Ning. I didn't know that Duke Ning was coming in great numbers. I missed the welcome from afar, so I ask Duke Ning to atone for his sins."
Jia Cong stared at Cui Shiming coldly, with an angry look on his face, which made Cui Shiming feel uneasy.
Although he knew that the ambush on him had nothing to do with Cui Shiming, the anger in his heart had to be expressed to let Cui Shiming know that he was now furious, even on the verge of explosion.
Use Cui Shiming to convey his anger and dissatisfaction back to the capital.
Jia Cong said coldly: "Master Cui, do I have any grudge against you?"
When Cui Shiming heard this, he was stunned for a moment and said, "Ning Guogong was joking. There is no enmity between us."
Jia Cong asked again: "Does I have any grudge against you?"
Cui Shiming said: "Why did Mr. Ning Guo say this? This is the first time I have met Mr. Ning Guo. There is no hatred or grudge between us."
Jia Cong shouted angrily: "Master Cui, since there is no enmity between us, then why did you send soldiers and horses from the Xuzhou camp to intercept and kill me on the canal last night? If you don't give me an explanation today, , I will kill you."
"What······"
Cui Shiming looked at Jia Cong in shock and disbelief.
That bastard Xu Huanwen led his troops yesterday to deal with Ning Guogong. How is this possible? How dare he?
No wonder he went out with 6,000 troops, lost his troops and generals, and came back in a great defeat. He was actually defeated by the man in front of him. He was indeed a young general who was victorious in every battle.
"Ning Guo Gong, I really don't know anything about this matter. That bastard Xu Huanwen, how dare he do it? I will send him over right now and let him give an explanation to Ning Guo Gong in person."
Jia Cong waved his hand coldly and said: "No need, that Xu Huanwen, I have already beheaded him. I came here this time to ask Mr. Cui to give me an explanation.
The Xuzhou Camp is under the control of your Master Cui. Do you know what they are going to do? Without your permission, they dare to mobilize the army out of the city at will. Mr. Cui, please don't think that I am a fool. "
Cui Shiming's expression suddenly changed when he heard that Xu Huanwen had been beheaded.
This Ning Guogong is exactly the same as the one in the legend, with the same decisiveness in killing, the same cruelty and ruthlessness, and the same unyielding retribution.
If I don't give an explanation, I will really kill myself if I look like this.
Thinking of this, Cui Shiming raised his hands and said: "Ning Guogong, I want you to know that I only have the power to supervise the Xuzhou camp, but not to command, and they will not listen to my orders.
Xu Huanwen led his troops out yesterday, saying that he was under the order of the capital, and he could not stop him. Unexpectedly, this bastard was so crazy that he dared to attack Ning Guogong. He really deserves to die. "
Jia Cong took a deep breath and said: "Well, since you said that, I will believe you for the time being. I am going to raid the Xu family now. You bring people to help and let people guard the city gate. I don't want the Xu family to have any trouble." One person escaped."
