Huaiyu is slightly cool

Until noon that day, after Zhou Huai fired three red signal flares, the three thousand soldiers and horses launched a violent charge as if they had practiced countless times.The heavy-duty cannons used for border drills were also put into use in Kaifeng. The artillery went into battle, and dozens of cannons blasted at the city gates. They broke into the city in less than half an hour, from the city gate to Zhouhuai. In the mansion where he lived, all those who encountered resistance were massacred, and it was like a god of death falling in front of all the officials outside Zhou Huai's mansion who had not yet captured Zhou Huai.

From the siege and defense to being besieged in less than a day, the situation has turned upside down. The rebellious people in Yanzhou saw that the situation was over, some abandoned their weapons and surrendered, some had fled, and some still wanted to fight and fight to the death. For the three thousand elite army with strong soldiers, horses and well-equipped weapons, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

After the three thousand soldiers rescued Zhou Huai and the eldest princess, they immediately began to take over and clean up the rebels in the city under the orders and leadership of their superiors.Except for those who surrendered and were temporarily taken into custody, the rest of the traitors were all killed, and even their family members were liquidated, and the city was immediately covered with corpses, blood flowing like rivers.

When the gunpowder smoke subsided, the casualties were counted, the army was stationed in separate battalions, the wounded were healed, heavy weapons were put into storage, and patrols were deployed, the generals rushed to meet Lord Huai, and the sun was already waning.I saw Zhou Huai making tea leisurely in the backyard, with a look of ease.

36 The personal guards, although half of them were dead or injured, were still in high spirits. They did not lose their helmets or crooked armor. Except for the blood-stained clothes that could not distinguish the original color, they did not see the slightest distress.

The eldest princess was sitting beside Zhou Huai, drinking tea, looking at Wu Guisi and other officers who came with a murderous aura, and Liao Qiwei, the supervising army temporarily sent by Zhou Huai, smelling the faint blood that spread from outside the mansion. Qi, look very calm and calm.

"I did a good job this time. Thank you for your hard work. When you return to the Huaiyuan, you will be rewarded according to your merit." Zhou Huai said, looking at the crowd, he saw a person who was following him not long ago , not at all surprised.

"The subordinate is No. 17 of Ruoshuimen Dizhi Group, and I have met the master."

The person who spoke was the male guard who followed Wen Yuji into the mansion before. After he finished speaking, he showed Zhou Huai another special etiquette.

Zhou Huai nodded and responded lightly, glanced at him before asking, "A password?"

"The King of Heaven and Earth Tiger!"

"You are two hundred and five!"

"This code is wrong!"

"It will be void in the future!"

The eldest princess who was sitting on the sidelines watching the excitement almost spit out her tea when she heard the words. She took a look at Zhou Huai, a stubborn bastard, and asked with a smile: "These two codes really sound like your style. But, didn’t he hand you a piece of paper on the defense inside and outside the city when he came in before, why do you need to check it again?”

"Don't you think it's normal only if there are secret codes? And the secret codes are four sentences!"

The Eldest Princess shook her head, obviously not believing Zhou Huai's words about codes to appear formal, but she still asked puzzledly, "Huh? Four sentences?"

"Yeah." Zhou Huai nodded, then turned his head and asked about the business: "It was dealt with so quickly? Didn't it get delayed or didn't encounter it?"

"Going back to Lord Huai, I didn't see the Qiang and Xirong troops coming to attack."

"I don't even come to bite a bait so big, do I have a bigger plan?" Zhou Huai tilted his head and looked at the kneeling young Ruoshuimen: "Now I will give you a chance to show."

"Master Xie, my subordinates have indeed heard about Yuji before... Miss Wen has received news from the Qiang Kingdom, but my subordinates have not found out the specific content."

Zhou Huai squinted his eyes and looked at the expression in his eyes with a smile on his face, before he asked someone to bring over Wen Yuji who was already in prison.

After a while, Wen Yuji, who was shackled and shackled, was pushed over by four soldiers.But she just glanced at everyone present, and a trace of unbelievable grief flashed in her eyes when she glanced over No. 17. If Zhou Huai hadn't been watching her closely, she might have mistakenly thought she was dazzled.

When Wen Yuji was forced to kneel in front of Zhou Huai by the soldiers, her back was still straight, but her eyes were closed, and she remained stubborn and silent.

Zhou Huai watched No.17 and Wen Yuji for a while before he said slowly, "It doesn't matter if you don't plan to speak, I say you can listen. How long have you been planning this? One month? Two months?" Month? Unfortunately, no matter how long you have been planning, you all failed, I am sitting here unscathed, and you, as well as your family and friends, will all die."

After Zhou Huai finished speaking, seeing that Wen Yuji didn't waver in the slightest, he stopped talking to her, and turned to ask the young man who was still kneeling respectfully: "No. 17, which one do you choose between this woman and the head of the two prefectures? "

The young man's eyes flickered, but he immediately replied with a firm tone: "This subordinate is just playing around with her, and is willing to go through fire and water for his master."

Wen Yuji's eyelashes trembled slightly, but she never opened her eyes, but her body was a little too stiff.

Zhou Huai smiled: "That's right, it's much better than those traitors who are so lustful and confused. It seems that Ruoshuimen still has value."

"Get up, from now on you will be the head of Ruoshuimen's Yanfu Liangzhou." Zhou Huai let NO.17 get up in a good mood, looked at Wen Yuji who was still silent, and said with a smile: "I know you She was born as a dancer, has no relatives, and is not afraid of death, but I can still make you suffer."

Zhou Huai grinned cheerfully: "Come here, strip her and hang her on the gate of the city, gag her, don't let her die, and bring the governor's adjutant and his family to me. I want to interrogate myself."

"Cough cough." The princess, who had pretended to be transparent for a while, coughed lightly, and approached Zhou Huai to remind her: "The adjutant is also a high-ranking official of the imperial court, and the court must decide whether to try and convict."

"What if I don't?"

"Then don't let anyone take off Miss Wen's clothes, I'll pretend I didn't see it."

Zhou Huai raised his head and glanced at her inexplicably, then looked at Wen Yuji's figure not far away, curled his lips, but still nodded.

When the governor's adjutant and his family were escorted over, his son was a talented man with both civil and military skills. Unfortunately, the flattery on his face was too obvious. As soon as he arrived, he knelt on the ground and cried to show his loyalty: "The humble official is willing to serve Master Huai to catch other The party involved in this matter, I beg Lord Huai to spare my whole family."

Party?Zhou Huai looked disdainfully at the darkening sky. In fact, she didn't need to interrogate these traitors at all. Anyway, she knew who was behind the scenes. She was not afraid of Qiang and Xirong's actions. She was purely thinking now. It's just to vent your anger: "What if you don't let it go? Will you feel resentful because of it?"

Seeing this, the adjutant's face turned ashen, he got up angrily, and was about to rush at him, cursing: "Bastard! You want to betray the master for glory?!"

"Father, a good bird chooses a tree to live in." The adjutant's son saw that the adjutant was forced to the ground by Zhou Huai's subordinates, and after a word of persuasion, he kowtowed to Zhou Huai again: "The humble father was coerced by that witch, and everything is in danger." It is involuntary, and I have never taken the initiative to do anything harmful to nature, please ask the Lord Huai to investigate clearly."

The adjutant cursed: "Ingratitude, double-decker, I don't have a son like you."

Zhou Huai was tired of watching, and directly ordered: "It's too noisy, forget it, put it down, and serve it with great punishment."

The eldest princess also frowned at the acting skills of the father and son, but she still asked, "How do you plan to deal with these people?"

"Kill, you dare to resist because you haven't killed enough."

Seeing her ruthless expression, the eldest princess blinked her eyes uncomfortably. She felt that Zhou Huai was acting like a tyrant, so she subconsciously persuaded her: "If you don't teach, you will kill her to torture her..."

"Okay!" Zhou Huai directly interrupted the long speech that the eldest princess was about to start, and replied impatiently: "The way of Confucius and Mencius is just superficial. For the emperor, the rule of the country should be based on Legalism."

"But so many lives..."

"Human life? Huh!" Zhou Huai sneered: "My existence or the safety of the border, which is the greater disaster? The two evils are the lesser, and the prince will not even recognize this, but he still sent troops to cross the border. He just wants to fight against me, why should I feel sorry for his people who are loyal to him?"

The eldest princess's voice was a little dry: "No, it's just that he thinks that Qiang and Xirong won't invade our great scene, but if you join hands with Mo Ziqi, the Wu family and the royal family will be in danger."

"The royal family..."

Zhou Huai looked at the eldest princess meaningfully, and spit out these three words like a sigh, in a low and strange tone, before saying again after a while: "It seems that the prince doesn't know that there is still a former court hidden in my Zhou family. Grandson, why didn't you tell him?"

"Have you told Father... Your Majesty about this?" The Eldest Princess asked back with a cold expression.

"Although I didn't say anything, I'm not sure that he doesn't know about it, but he already knows enough, but he can tell my prince about it now. After all, if Zhou Hao doesn't rebel, how can I make a move?"

"But once the news spreads, the Zhou family will be implicated, and you really don't care about the hundreds of lives in the mansion?"

"What's with me?"

The eldest princess choked, opened her mouth, and finally sighed: "Forget it, you are not a good person in the first place, you are narrow-minded and fond of holding grudges, so how could you let these people who are against you go?"

This time, Zhou Huai was really ruthless. Not only Yanzhou, but also the governors of the other three states were replaced immediately, and Zhou Huai's manpower seamlessly took over, and began to prepare for the long-planned autumn harvest conscription. Plan, a catastrophe is about to kick off.
