Duan Peng looked at Si Fangxing with cold eyes, so cold that it made one's soul tremble. This feeling was as ruthless as abandoning a piece of scrap.
Duan Peng is not an unjust person, and he would choose to save any of his colleagues if he could.
It's a pity that the imperial court will not be so official.
The Song Dynasty never relaxed its guard against warriors for hundreds of years.
It can be discussed with anyone and settled with money. This even includes disputes over borders and between countries. There is only one issue that no one would choose to discuss with the Song Dynasty court, and that is the issue of military men interfering with power.
The warriors are very direct. They will grab whoever has the bigger fist. If they have the world in their hands, are they still worried about not having money?
The Wufu court learned from the tragic lessons of the previous Tang Dynasty and would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go. Although these scholars are smart, books cannot block swords. This is a simple truth.
Duan Peng looked at Si Fangxing. Si Fangxing had already thought about his funeral the moment he put on his armor. Instead of waiting for death, he might as well give it a try. There might be a chance of improvement when Liang Chuan comes back.
He could read Duan Peng's eyes, but he didn't respond. He turned to look at Liang Chuan with an expression of unwillingness. He sighed softly, and Si Fangxing finally gave in.
"The First Clan"
"Sir, please invite the others out first. I have something to say to Mr. Duan!"
Duan Peng felt as if he was stabbed by a sword. He raised his hand to stop Si Fangxing's nonsense, but this was not possible. The imperial court would send officials to inspect it soon, and the truth would one day come to light. Rather than It is better to control the truth in your own hands than to let those iron-faced kings of hell have to deal with it.
He understands this, and so does Si Fangxing.
Therefore, Si Fangxing chose to tell the 'truth'.
By speaking out, many people can avoid difficulties.
Duan Peng cleared everyone out, and even Gao Chun was not left behind. Gao Chun wanted to call Si Fangxing and advise him not to do stupid things, because he had heard about some things before the war. It was inseparable from Liang Chuan's relationship. When the news broke out, everyone present had to get into the prison car.
Si Fangxing smiled bitterly at Gao Chun, waited for everyone to leave, and then said slowly to Duan Peng.
"Master Duan, one person is responsible for his work and it has nothing to do with others. Master Duan also saw it and may have doubts about the armaments in the city. Yes, I moved the armaments in the city away before this war started!"
What!
Although Duan Peng had already guessed the result, he was still frightened.
He had heard that Si Fangxing had made a lot of money over the years, so why would he do such a stupid thing as embezzling the imperial armaments?
Human hearts are not enough!
Duan Peng looked at Liang Chuan, afraid. . Liang Chuan has nothing to do with this matter. .
"Do you know that this is a first-class capital crime? Even if you report it to the court, I can't protect you!"
Si Fangxing shook his head and said: "You have your own future, don't waste your life with me!"
"You...you...you!" Duan Peng said "you" three times in a row, and finally turned his head with great regret, unable to bear to look directly at Si Fangxing.
Si Fangxing is dead this time!
Duan Peng is afraid that he will also be charged with the crime of negligence and lax control! There are many others who are afraid that they will also finish playing.
Most of the people in Weiyuan Tower died in this battle, and there is no way for the dead to be held accountable.
"You are so confused. Where did you take the weapons and equipment?" Do you need to ask this question again? Liang Chuan, who has been very kind to him, is standing next to him!
There is no need to talk about Liang Chuan's identity anymore. Everyone in the government office has retreated and Liang Chuan is still standing. Duan Peng doesn't want his own people to listen and believe Liang Chuan!
Liang Chuan was about to open his mouth to respond, but Si Fangxing had already responded: "Liang Sanlang found a group of pirates on the sea when he went to sea earlier. The pirates were powerful and robbed passing merchant ships. As the governor of Quanzhou Prefecture, I have no shirk. Unfortunately, many times Reporting to Prince Zhao to kill the thieves was rejected. Seeing that these thieves have become powerful, they will definitely pose a threat to me, Qingyuan, in the future."
"Keep talking!"
"I don't have the right to deploy troops, so I can only hand over the weapons and equipment to Liang Sanlang without authorization, and let his men kill the thieves on our government's behalf. All matters have nothing to do with Sanlang!"
Si Fangxing shouldered all the blame! When it comes to future discussions, Liang Chuan can't escape his involvement. This is nothing more than a minor crime of being a mistress! It’s just that he himself is probably dead!
Both of them were silent. Duan Peng closed his eyes in pain. He had just sent Huang Shaoping away, could he have to send Si Fangxing away again?
"Please take Si Fangxing under custody first! Liang Chuan, stay still."
Liang Chuan took a look, and Si Fangxing gave Liang Chuan his last look, trusting him with everything in his eyes.
Before Liang Chuan said anything, two government officials took him away.
Duan Peng walked down from the desk, grabbed Liang Chuan's shapeless collar and said angrily: "Do you know what you are doing?"
There was infinite sadness on Liang Chuan's face. He knew the consequences better than anyone else. Having served in the Western Army, military discipline was as strong as a mountain and should not be trifled with. This was an iron rule.
"I will find a way to protect Si Fangxing!"
"Do you think your relationship is worth the ancestral system of the Song Dynasty? Si Fangxing is dead this time, look at the good things you have done!"
Liang Chuan was silent.
Duan Peng asked: "Let me ask you again, where did you invite the officers and soldiers? Where did these people come from? Are they your own people or real officers and soldiers?"
"The ones who later entered the city holding long swords were my men. The ones I brought to rescue were the men of Yang Lin, the defender of Longhai, and the others were the men of Guo Can of Tong'an County. They are all regular troops of the imperial court!"
How could the regular army arrive so quickly? He had led the Xinghua Army himself, so how could he not know the court's procedures for dispatching troops? The fastest these people would arrive would be the day after tomorrow. In just one day, he was How?
"Whose name did you use to mobilize these people? Could it be that they were also coaxed by you? It is a capital crime to mobilize troops without authorization. I don't know how many heads will fall this time!"
Regarding the fish talisman, now that Liang Chuan has made this treasure public, he will no longer hide it. He will reveal his identity to the world as soon as possible. In the future, he will not have to look at the faces of so many people to do things, let alone so many people. People are always at odds with themselves, and everyone wants to pinch them!
Liang Chuan slowly took out the fish charm from his arms and handed it to Duan Peng as if he didn't care at all.
Duan Peng didn't look carefully at first because the light wasn't very good, but when he took the thing he was dumbfounded.
this. . This is. .
He is in the Xinghua Army and supervises the army with civil servants, so he naturally knows the weight of the object in his hand.
Duan Peng's pupils dilated in an instant, and his breathing almost stopped.
"How do you have this thing? Who gave it to you?"
After asking this question, Duan Peng knew that he had asked the wrong question, and asked who gave it to him. Of course it was given by the official of the dynasty!
Controlling soldiers is like taking power. Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty and Zhou Yafu still dared to speak loudly after taking away military power from others. If the imperial court dares to mess with people and give it to the wrong hands, they will not be able to sit firmly on the throne!
The figure Duan Peng looked at Liang Chuan in the darkness was a bit unreal.
"What is your identity, Sanlang? Oh, I said something wrong again. You don't have to ask what you shouldn't ask. If you know more, you will only cause more trouble for yourself."
"My lord, I will tell you something in the future, but the time is not ripe now. This troop transfer was given to me by a noble man. I also have an important mission. Sir, you only need to know this. You know too much." Too much, as adults say, is really of no benefit!”
This time, it was Duan Peng's turn to be speechless.
If Liang Chuan spent a little money and opened up some connections to elevate himself from a small official to the position of governor of the state, then he could still think about it and dare to think about it. But when Liang Chuan took out this fatal thing from himself, he couldn't sit still.
Liang Chuan's identity has surpassed him. He even has a military talisman personally given by an official, which allows him to command his own soldiers and mobilize soldiers from Longhai and Tong'an counties. Naturally, there is no doubt about this.
He didn't dare to guess what the officials would do for him, and it was not something he could guess. He was afraid that it was the officials' intentions that brought him to the position of knowing the state. .
"Did you use this soldier talisman to mobilize Si Fangxing?"
Liang Chuan glanced at it, took the fish charm and said, "Sir, it's not true."
Soldier talismans are valuable things. If the queen mother knew that she had used the treasure given by her old man to exchange for some equipment, she would be surprised if she didn't kill him.
There are ten thousand ways to save Si Fangxing, but she must not be involved.
Duan Peng was also surprised. If not, Si Fangxing would still have to die!
Liang Chuan had no choice but to wait for the people from the court to arrive. I believe that the specific conclusion would be beyond his expectations.
What he has to do now is to clean up this old failed situation. How to restore production is too important. Qingyuan is an important source of income for the country. If it is lost, there will be insufficient money when troops are needed in the future!
The matter of Pu Geng and Abdullah also needs to be followed up. Since ancient times, no dynasty has allowed people to fight from the sea. This is simply a shame and a shame. Apart from the Japanese, what else exists on the sea? These little characters dare to jump on the Song Dynasty, which is probably not a good sign!
Liang Chuan came out of the county government office and immediately rushed back to the port. The port was the first place where pirates landed this time. He hadn't gone back to see how much he had lost!
Not only the port, but also Penghu Island. After conquering this island, we are afraid that Murong Chao will return. There are not many supplies on the island now, and it has experienced a war, and the sea storm is coming again. If we don't hurry over and build a camp, , I'm afraid I can't defend this treasure island!
Liang Chuan looked up, and saw that the city was full of cries, and white silk ribbons were hung on every house. A few days ago, there were thousands of houses with lights on, but now there are only a few houses in the city that are intact.
These bastard Japanese people, what happened to the Japanese country? Is there something wrong with the Yuanji? How could they collude with people like Murong Chao? Didn’t I also warn the Yuanji at the beginning that being an enemy of the Song Dynasty would be the end of the Japanese people? ?
