I just received news that the bandits trying to escape to the back mountains have also been intercepted. Except for a few people in Zeyun Village, Nuoda, some of the others were killed or captured. This one is in Miyun. The bandits who had been in control for nearly twenty years were finally annihilated.
Ever since he got the battle plan, Sima Chi knew that he would definitely win this battle, and leading the troops to destroy Zeyun Village would be a great achievement. Why was Sima Chi unwilling to give up such a good opportunity?
His application to lead troops into battle was rejected, but Sima Chi did not give up. He used his family connections to call out the battalion commander Cao Zhen in the name of the army headquarters at a critical moment, and finally obtained the qualification to lead troops as he wished.
As expected, Sima Chi achieved a complete victory in this battle, destroying Zeyun Village in one fell swoop and getting the chance to remove the thorn in his own side.
"That boy Ye Ying, his head should be gone now, right? You can't blame me for being cruel. Who told you to offend the Sima family?" Sima Chi sat on the chair of the head of the family and said to himself. .
Sima Chi actually admired Ye Ying a little, but as a member of the Sima family, although he didn't like Sima Mingyu's arrogant personality, he had to respect the family's wishes and avenge the family's core disciples.
Before this, Sima Chi had also thought of many ways to secretly get rid of Ye Ying, but the battalion commander Cao Zhen blocked him in every possible way, so he never found a chance.
Unexpectedly, Ye Ying volunteered to lead the attack on Zeyun Village this time. This idea played into Sima Chi's heart. He immediately thought of a foolproof measure that could help his family deal with this difficult boy while making meritorious deeds.
"Master Sima is resting inside, no one is allowed in!"
While Sima Chi was daydreaming, a shout suddenly came from outside the door. Before Sima Chi could react, the door was pushed open with a bang, and then a group of people walked in directly.
The young man at the front of the queue was Ye Ying, whom Sima Chi thought was dead. At this time, he was holding a bloody person in his hands, looking very angry.
Behind Ye Ying, there were eight people, whom Sima Chi knew, because they were all Ye Ying's subordinates, but at this time, these people were covered in blood, and all of them had angry faces.
"This kid is really lucky." Sima Chi thought secretly in his heart, but he had been mentally prepared for this, so he didn't panic at all.
"How dare you break into the chief's office privately? Don't you want to live?" Sima Chi said with an angry look on his face, but he was secretly happy in his heart.
"Lord Sima, I have a question for you. Since we have agreed to launch an attack at this hour, why did you wait until now to give the order? Do you know that due to this delay, more than a dozen brothers lost their lives on this hill. "Looking at the innocent-looking Sima Chi, Ye Ying's anger reached an uncontrollable level.
"Lord Sima, please give us an explanation." Qi Jiao stood behind Ye Ying and roared loudly.
The rest of the people also looked at Sima Chi with anger on their faces. If they died on the battlefield, everyone could have no regrets, but no one could bear to be betrayed by one of their own.
At this time, there was another noise outside the door. It turned out to be some soldiers from the new barracks who heard the noise. They rushed over and stood outside the door of the room, looking at everyone in the room quietly.
"That's nonsense. When did I say to attack in Chenshi? If any of you heard it, stand up for me." Facing the questions from everyone, Sima Chi seemed unhurried.
"It's true..."
After hearing Sima Chi's words, Ye Ying's guess was completely confirmed, and he no longer had any luck in his heart. I underestimated the despicability of this old fox, because when he assigned himself a task, he really drove away everyone around him.
Ye Ying originally thought this was the need for confidentiality, but now he understood that Sima Chi was already prepared to refuse to admit his guilt.
"Sima Chi, you are cruel. I have a grudge against your Sima family. I know you will not let me go, but how could so many brave and capable brothers have offended you? How could you bear to harm their lives? "
Ye Ying is not a stupid person, but Gan De's death made him lose his cool. Now he understands that Sima Chi has decided everything. But even if this was the case, so many Pao Ze died tragically innocently, and even if he died, he would still seek justice for these brothers.
"Ye Ying, you are a talented person. I am really reluctant to punish you, but today you let go of dozens of bandits first and rushed into Shangguan later. If you and others are not punished today, under my Crazy Lion Military Regulations, There will be nothing left." Sima Chizhu looked heartbroken, but his heart was full of joy.
"Come here, take down this group of criminals, push them out and kill them!" Next, Sima Chi shouted loudly towards the door.
A group of soldiers holding weapons rushed out of the door and quickly rushed towards Ye Ying and others.
"You thief, grandpa will fight with you." The grumpy Qi Jiao saw that the situation was not right, and rushed towards Sima Chi with an iron rod in hand.
After Qi Jiao finished speaking, she was about to rush towards Sima Chi, but was held back by Ye Ying who was on the side. At the same time, he also stopped Shan Fu and others who were eager to try.
"Wait a minute, wait until I say something before you take action." Immediately afterwards, Ye Ying turned around again and faced the group of soldiers holding swords who had just rushed in.
In fact, these soldiers did not want to do anything to their robes, but it was difficult to disobey military orders, so they had no choice but to do so. At this time, they stood still and looked at Ye Ying and his group.
"Everyone, what Ye Ying did today was because he was determined to die. If I didn't do this, I would be sorry for my brothers who died unjustly." Ye Ying looked at the people around him and his voice was a little low. Said, looking at Gan De held in Ye Ying's hand, many people couldn't help but lower their heads.
"I am here today to expose the true face of that hypocrite. He is our Lord Sima, who usually looks like an elder. In order to avenge his personal revenge, he deliberately delayed the dispatch of troops, causing more than a dozen of our brothers to go to waste. They paid their lives, and the world is clear. I hope that the brothers here can one day redress the injustice of these brothers who died unjustly." Looking at more and more people, they said loudly.
"Yes, today we are seeking an explanation for our dead brother."
"Seeking an explanation for my dead brother!"
Qi Jiao and others behind Ye Ying did not choose to back down and spoke firmly.
"Stop listening to this guy's deception. Can't you hear my order clearly? Drag him down and behead him immediately." After hearing what Ye Ying and others said, Sima Chi became furious.
After listening to Sima Chi's words, the soldiers who rushed in looked at each other and finally took action, surrounding Ye Ying's nine people.
"We know how to leave!" Ye Ying broke away from a soldier who was holding him, and slowly walked out the door with Gan De in his arms. The others followed Ye Ying silently.
"God is watching what people do, and there is a clear cycle of retribution. The perpetrators will not have a good end." Ye Ying walked out of the hall, looked at the soldiers of the new barracks surrounding the outside, and said loudly with his head raised.
At this moment, almost everyone present could guess the truth of the matter. Many people were full of sympathy for Ye Ying's people, and were even a little angry about this matter, because it was the biggest problem for soldiers to stumble behind Pao Ze's back on the battlefield. taboo. But facing such a behemoth as the Sima family, everyone had no choice but to remain silent.
"Sir, the victory over Zeyun Village this time was mainly due to the intelligence collected by Ye Ying and others. I hope that you can absolve them of their guilt because they will not retreat in the face of an enemy ten times their size." At that moment, a voice sounded at the door of the hall.
The soldiers looked up and saw three generals in armor standing there. Everyone in the new camp knew these three people because they were the three captains of the new camp, and the one who spoke was the leader of Ye Ying's team. The team is strong and strong.
"Yes, sir, killing the soldiers who just fought a bloody battle with the enemy will chill the hearts of the brothers!" Another team on the side said loudly.
At that time, Ye Ying and others were going to look for Sima Chi. Xu Qiang knew that they would be in trouble if they went there, so he contacted several good team leaders and came together to intercede for Ye Ying.
Sima Chi raised his head and glanced at Xu Qiang and others silently. There was no change on his face, but he was very dissatisfied in his heart. He came to the new barracks and through hard work, recovered two teams for his own use. However, the three guys in front of him were loyal to the camp commander Cao Zhen and were still unwilling to take orders from him.
"One day, I will slowly take care of you." Sima Chi thought, but there was a trace of gentleness on his face.
"I understand everyone's feelings, but the reason why our Crazy Lion Army has been invincible over the years is because we run the army strictly. If we let Ye Ying and others go today, wouldn't it break the rules of our Crazy Lion Army, so I can only endure the pain. The general is beheaded." Sima Chi looked heavy-hearted, and people who didn't know him would really be deceived by him.
"grown ups……"
Xu Qiang wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Sima Chi.
"Okay, military law is ruthless. If anyone tries to persuade him, he is guilty of the same crime as Ye Ying and others." Sima Chi said sternly, forcing Xu Qiang's men to shut their mouths.
Hearing Sima Chi's words, Xu Qiang turned his head and looked at the direction Ye Ying and others left, and then looked down the mountain, with a trace of anxiety in his eyes.
At this time, a figure quickly ran in from the door of Yunze Village and quickly ran towards the Juyi Hall. Seeing this figure, Xu Qiang's eyes were filled with a glimmer of hope.
"Sir, the chief Zheng Hao is outside asking for an audience." Sima Chi was waiting in the hall for his subordinates to deliver the heads of Ye Ying and others. When he heard that Zheng Hao was coming, he couldn't help but frowned.
If he was honest, he could ignore it, but Sima Chi was still a little afraid of Zheng Hao. Of course, what Sima Chi cared about was not Zheng Hao, the young man, but the Zheng family behind this young man.
Anticipating that something like this might happen, Sima Chi deliberately arranged for Zheng Hao to clean up the mess at the foot of the mountain. Unexpectedly, he got the news and rushed over.
"Let him come in!" After hesitating, Sima Chi decided to see Zheng Hao.
"Zheng Lichang, if you are not in charge of the overall situation at the foot of the mountain, what are you doing here?" Seeing Zheng Hao appear in the hall, Sima Chi asked slowly.
"Sir, this subordinate is here for Ye Ying and others." Zheng Hao bowed and said.
Zheng Hao's straight-to-the-point words made Sima Chi secretly disappointed. This person really came for Ye Ying and others, but he quickly made a decision. Even if you offend the Zheng family this time, you must complete the task of getting rid of Ye Ying for the family.
"Don't persuade me about this matter. Ye Ying and others have violated military regulations and must be punished. This cannot be changed no matter what." Sima Chi said to Zheng Hao softly, but his attitude was very firm.
"Sir, you misunderstood. I'm not here to advise you not to kill Ye Ying and others. On the contrary, I think they should be killed." Zheng Hao bowed again and said.
Zheng Hao's words stunned Sima Chi, who was sitting in the upper hand, and Xu Qiang and others who had been outside the hall were also stunned.
