"Your Highness, please spare your life!"
When everyone heard this, their scalps immediately went numb.
This guy is too cruel! ?
But whether he is cruel or cruel, whether he is deposed or punished, that is all his business.
But right now, it might be my life!
If they can resist, they will do it without hesitation!
However, this prince was young and had not yet been crowned. He came in a noble body and actually staged a preemptive mutiny for a group of warriors! ?
What the hell, are you a martial artist or am I a martial artist?
Now, his life is in his hands, and no one is begging for mercy.
One person panicked and explained: "Everything is the general's will. We are only responsible for executing orders."
"You mean you are innocent?" Zhou Che sneered and pointed his sword at him: "So what if you are innocent? There are thousands of lives lost in the salt factory."
"I will chop you all into pieces. As long as I can save them all, I will definitely make a profit!"
Zhou Che put on a posture of only settling accounts but not being unreasonable, which made everyone feel chilly.
One of the captains spoke in a trembling voice: "We are willing to obey His Highness's order and send troops immediately."
"If I can chop off Yan Cheng's head, I can make your soldiers obey!" Zhou Che snorted coldly.
At this time, Huangfu Yun came over and pointed at Chen Zhibing: "I don't know about the others, but he is reliable."
Zhou Che frowned: "An old official of the Huangfu family?"
"Yes." Huangfu Yun nodded and added: "If Yan Cheng hadn't stopped him, he would have already led his army to set off."
Therefore, some officials will rebel.
But his actions undoubtedly proved his position.
Zhou Che nodded slightly and looked at Chen Zhibing: "Hedong thieves attacked Mangshan, what do you think?"
The man immediately knelt down on one knee: "I am willing to obey His Highness's order and lead the army to defeat the thieves!"
"Let him go first." Zhou Che ordered the rangers behind him and said, "Chen Zhibing, right? You step aside first. I have a few questions for them to answer later."
"If anyone is lying, point it out for me."
Without waiting for the other party to answer, he continued: "Yan Cheng is dead. We will defeat the enemy behind tonight and the cavalry camp will have a new leader."
"Do a good job and this position is yours."
"If you cheat and cheat, don't blame me for being unkind!"
Chen Zhibing's heart trembled and he responded sternly: "I will never deceive Your Highness in my humble position."
"Remember what you said." Zhou Che nodded.
Huangfu Longting narrowed his eyes slightly.
It is true that Chen Zhibing is an old official of his family, but Zhou Che has extraordinary means, if this promotion comes true.
In the future, when it comes to Chen Zhibing, speaking on his own may not be as effective as Zhou Che.
Zhou Che picked up Yan Cheng's head and placed it on the table: "There are nine more people, listen."
"Only five of you can survive."
When several people heard this, their faces turned pale.
"I ask questions and you answer them truthfully."
"Whoever lies will die!"
Zhou Che raised his sword: "First question, who among you is closest to Yan Cheng?"
Swish——
The seven people raised their hands without hesitation and pointed at one of the captains.
After a slight hesitation, the remaining one also pointed to this person.
The captain's eyes were panicked and he hesitated: "Your Highness, please listen to my explanation..."
Zhou Che slashed it down with one sword.
Heads fell to the ground.
He bent down to pick it up and put it on the table again.
"What else?" Zhou Che asked again.
This time, it was Jun Sima who was hesitant just now who was pointed out.
Before he could even say anything, he was beheaded by Zhou Che's sword.
There were three more headless corpses in the tent, with blood and internal organs flowing out from the neck cavity, exuding a pungent smell of blood.
Three heads were placed on the table, making the seven people staring at them feel weak.
This feeling of slowly approaching death is far more terrifying than dying on the battlefield!
"The third question, who did Yan Cheng arrange to keep an eye on the salt factory today?"
They quickly pointed out one person——
"No!"
He yelled crazily, used all his strength to break away from the ranger behind him, and pounced on Zhou Che.
With a sweep of Gai Yue's sword, his palms were cut off.
"ah!"
He screamed and was pinned down on the table by Gai Yue.
Zhou Che kills again!
The six people alive were soaked in sweat.
Zhou Che looked at Chen Zhibing and said, "Among the six people, which one do you want to kill?"
Chen Zhibing:! ! !
Soon, he understood: this was a certificate of fame, but also an opportunity.
He can designate anyone to kill at will. This person can be Yan Cheng's person, his enemy, or a power contender.
He also knew that he had to make a choice.
The captain who was still alive raised his head vigorously and looked at Chen Zhibing with difficulty, his forehead covered with sweat.
Chen Zhibing glanced at him, then looked away, pointing at the person beside him: "This."
"He was appointed commander of another department and had an elite force of four hundred soldiers under his command."
"Although his rank is slightly lower than ours, he still has a lot of say in the army, and he is... sent by the second prince!"
After saying this, Chen Zhibing knew: He had no way out!
On the side, Huangfu Longting shook his head gently. He also knew: this old official no longer belongs to the Huangfu family.
He entered the tent lightly, drew his sword to seize the army, and convinced people's hearts... My sister was right, he had indeed changed, as if the world had been turned upside down.
The man who was singled out yelled in panic: "Chen Zhibing, you are looking for death! You have offended the second prince, and it will be difficult for you to move forward in the army..."
puff!
Zhou Che struck out with the last sword, ending his verbosity.
Including Yan Cheng, there are five heads in total.
Zhou Che twisted their hair together, held it in his hand, and glanced at the others: "One last question."
besides!
The hearts of the five people alive were about to jump out of their chests.
"Is there anyone who disagrees with sending troops to attack thieves?"
The five people shouted in unison: "No!"
"His Royal Highness will temporarily take charge of the cavalry camp. Is there anyone who refuses to obey?"
"No!"
"Restrain the subordinates and head north to defeat the thieves. Is it possible?"
"able!"
Zhou Che finally smiled and nodded: "Very good."
Step forward.
He raised his sword.
Wow——
The tent door is opened.
Outside, there was a crowd of sergeants.
There were nearly two hundred people crowding at the front.
Behind the two hundred people, there was a crowd of people standing there.
"Just in time."
Seeing so many people, Zhou Che raised the five heads and said, "Look, Yan Cheng and these four people have collaborated with the Hedong thieves and collaborated with the enemy to commit treason. Your Highness has killed them!"
Below, the army was in an uproar.
Then, a voice of anger appeared and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Zhou Che raised his head forward, followed by Gai Yue and others.
"Your Highness knows that there must be someone loyal to Yan Cheng among you."
"Yan Cheng deliberately moved the camp south and joined forces with the Guo bandits from Hedong to kill the emperor's heir. I don't know if you are involved or not."
"However, if any of you are dissatisfied and want to avenge the loyal and brave men, you can come out now."
Zhou Che stood still and thrust his sword into the ground: "Your Highness is here. If you want revenge, just come here!"
