Royal road

It was said to be a night banquet, but in fact, the big tent was set up for the banquet before the sun set.The military order prohibits, even if there is a banquet, it will not be held until late at night.Generally speaking, it is from Shenshi to Youshi.Now that the beginning of autumn has just passed, the days are still long and the nights are short, and the unitary time is only the first twilight, so it will not affect the military ban.

Taking off the heavy iron armor and replacing it with a thin leather armor, Yiyan tidied things up neatly, took four confidant school officers, and headed to the big tent together.Before he got out of the tent, he saw a battalion officer striding forward and saluted: "General, please unload your sword."

How can you allow someone to wear a sword at a banquet?Not only can you not bring a sword, but you have to take off your boots to enter the table.This avoids to the greatest extent that someone hides the blade and threatens the life of the coach.

Yiyan nodded when he heard this, pulled out the scabbard at the side of his waist, and put it in the opponent's hand.The man's eyes swept over Yiyan's body, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with him, he turned sideways: "Please enter the account, General."

Unarmed, deep into the siege, if there is something wrong with his heart, there should always be some clues on his face.But Yiyan looked calm, and just stepped into the camp.

In the tent, the incense is fragrant and the cool breeze is blowing.Even if he is away from home, Wang Jun will not treat himself half a minute.In this large tent, there is actually an ice basin, which easily counteracts the unfinished heat.Seeing Yiyan and the others, Wang Jun, who was on the main seat, smiled and said, "General Yi is here, please take your seat."

Sure enough, the position of guest of honor was given up during the banquet, but he did not sit alone, beside him were military generals and ministers under Wang Jun's tent.Several school officials entered the last seat and sat on the east wall with them.

Now, several people were divided into pieces, and they couldn't find a chance if they wanted to attack.But with such an arrangement, no one can make a mistake.After all, there is a difference between respect and inferiority, but this time, it has a sense of intimacy and respect.

Everyone took their seats, and Wang Jun took the lead in toasting: "This time, we will be victorious when the banner opens."

The lower officers responded in unison, and Yiyan also raised the bar high.This banquet was not only for him, a newcomer, but also a banquet for attacking Bingzhou. No wonder Wang Jun put on such a grand gesture.

The battle is imminent, Wang Jun will not let his men drink wildly.After only one round of drinking, it was withdrawn and replaced with delicious food.I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but the meals Wang Jun arranged for this time were mainly roasted leopard and cannonball meat.Leopard Sunburn means that whole cows and sheep are roasted on the fire, and then cut into pieces to eat.Hu Pao meat is sliced ​​fat mutton and fat, served with condiments such as onion, ginger, pepper, salt, etc., put it into the washed lamb tripe, dig a hole and roast it with ash.Both of these are the usual cooking methods of the nomadic Hu people, which also makes the big tent full of soldiers and Xianbei Jiehu a bit more sturdy.

In any case, it was also from a family background, Wang Jun did not cut the flesh himself, and was served by a maidservant.But he was not idle, and he looked at the people below calmly.That's all for the scribes, those military generals started to eat meat, not a few of them got started, and the beards of the few who could still eat were covered with grease.And that Jie general who recently came to vote was completely different, his eating was surprisingly elegant, even more reserved than the family members who came from a poor family.

It's a pity that such a posture did not show elegance, but gave birth to unreasonable weirdness.His high nose, deep eyes, blue eyes and white skin all showed his alien identity.Such an imitation of Chinese etiquette is tantamount to imitating others and making people laugh.What made him act like this?Wang Jun knew it well.Back then, as a bastard, even if he was bullied, he would not lose his composure.What for?Just because of unwillingness!Not willing to be despised by others, not willing to be inferior to others.This unwillingness is the origin of his current status.

Ambition will never be bound by identity, it will only become more and more ruthless, and burn more and more intensely!

With a smile on his lips, Wang Jun said: "I heard that General Yi has passed the weak crown and has not yet married a wife. But it is hard to find a lady in Bingzhou?"

Yiyan put down the silver spoon in his hand, and said respectfully: "The general comes from a humble background, how dare he ask to marry a nobleman?"

He only said he didn't dare, not that he didn't want to.How could Wang Jun not understand the difference?Haha laughed, and he said: "If this battle is won, a certain family has its own girl, who can match the general."

This is not the most critical point in the agreement between the two, but Wang Jun regards it as a reward and throws it out directly.The effect of these words was also very obvious, and waves appeared on the calm face of the Jie man.It seems like reminiscence, but also like heart joy, unexpectedly there is a moment of uncontrollable, exposed and superficial.

"The great general treats the last general with great kindness, and the last general will be so heartbroken!" Yi Yan clasped his fists and bowed his head, and replied loudly.

This attitude is not something that can be pretended casually.Wang Jun's face was even more joyful: "With a strong general like Boyuan, the great cause can only be achieved. Hahaha~ Liang Zixi's failure lies in his inability to employ people."

Now that Weng's son-in-law's identity was confirmed, Wang Jun naturally changed his title.Yiyan's head drooped even lower, showing more humility.

Seeing this, Wang Jun was no longer polite: "Now that several counties in Jizhou are in the hands of Boyuan, what are your plans?"

"Ding Inspector Ding has been ill for a long time, and I'm afraid he won't live for a few days. Now most of Jizhou is in the hands of the general, and the post of governor of Jizhou should naturally fall under the name of the general." Yi Yan answered simply.

Wang Jun caressed his beard and smiled, "Boyuan has worked hard to put down bandits and bandits, and the rare thing is that he managed the prefectures properly. If I can be the governor, Boyuan should be the governor of Jizhou."

This is the spoils in advance.Wang Jun was also straightforward, and directly handed over the dispatch of the governor of Jizhou to Yiyan.However, this division may not be without selfishness.If this battle is victorious, there might be an extra job post as governor of Bingzhou, but Yiyan was born in Bingzhou, if he is released to return to his hometown, it may become a disaster.Jizhou is much safer, and the military power is also in our own hands, so we are not afraid of him going out of the sky.

Yiyan was also straightforward: "Thank you, General! Speaking of which, I also have something to give to the General..."

"Oh?" Wang Jun became interested, "What is it?"

Yi Yan said: "It will be delivered tonight, please wait for a while, General."

Unexpectedly, this person left some suspense, and Wang Jun was not annoyed: "In this case, let's have a banquet first. Come, dance and music."

This swearing-in dance music is not like the usual mediocre sound, but a Hu dance performed by a team of athletes.Swords come and go, drums are rumbling, just looking at it makes people's blood boil.Wang Jun's confidantes and favorite generals all looked excited, and they could not wait to go to battle to kill the enemy immediately and make great achievements.During the break of the banquet, Wang Jun did not forget his business, and asked some inside information about Bingzhou.With the benefit distribution and in-laws dependent, this time Yiyan has a look of knowing everything, which makes all the generals in the account quite useful.The tough bone of Bingzhou doesn't look as hard to chew as imagined.

In this way, time passed quickly.In the big tent, candle torches were lit early, and the lights were brightly lit.When everyone is full of food and wine, it is time to finish the feast.

At this moment, someone outside the tent reported: "General Yi is with you, come to offer congratulations."

As soon as Wang Jun heard it, he became energetic: "It's really delivered? What is it!"

Yiyan has already got up: "This thing, General Youmo will personally offer it."

As he spoke, he strode to the front of the tent, took a wooden box from the attendant, held it in his hand, turned around and walked towards the main seat.

Logically speaking, the main position is honorable, and it is difficult for others to approach.But this is a congratulation, and no matter what is sent, the guards outside the camp should have experienced it, and there will be no danger.Wang Jun just sat there generously, smiling as he watched the Jie Hu step forward.

"The last general ordered someone to take it, and dedicate it to the general together with the land of the same county." Yi Yan knelt before the case, raised his hands high, and held up the wooden box.

A county?Only one case later, Wang Jun smelled an extremely familiar smell.What came from the box was blood.What else can connect blood and territory together?

As if he had guessed what was in the box, Wang Jun sat up straight excitedly: "Submit it quickly!"

The maid beside him quickly took the box and put it on the table, and Wang Jun opened the lid with his own hands.

Seeing the contents in the box, all the maidservants standing behind Wang Jun covered their lips, and there were a few soft hisses that could not be suppressed.

In that box, there was actually a human head!Even after being pickled with white ash, the rotting corpses in summer cannot be avoided. At a glance, they are simply hideous.

"This, this is..." Wang Jun not only did not dodge, but his eyes showed excitement.

"It is the head of Wang Ping, the prefect of Wei County." Yi Yan replied, "Together with Wei County, Guangping, and Yangping, all the counties have fallen into the hands of the general!"

He dedicated the counties of Hebei!In this way, even most of Sizhou is in the bag!Wang Jun could no longer hide the joy on his face, clapped his palms and laughed loudly: "Boyuan's methods are peerless! Come here, bring some wine!"

This kind of gift can no longer be praised by mere words, and the discussion in the account is also buzzing.Many generals showed envious expressions.This is a great achievement!No wonder the governor valued this son so much, he was really ruthless and tenacious!It's just that this is the second time he has betrayed the Lord, can he really use it with confidence?

How could Wang Jun not have thought of this, those gray-blue eyes were close at hand, like a wolf, radiant and fierce.There are ambitions, calculations in those eyes, and there is also the danger of making people afraid.But Wang Jun was not afraid, on the contrary, passion and intoxication surged in his chest.Besides Wang Jun and Peng Zu, who else can use such a dangerous person?Just like Duan's and Yuwen's two Xianbei races, this Jie people should be used by him!

Holding a full glass of wine in his hand, Wang Jun laughed loudly and said, "Bo Yuan, drink this glass full!"

What an honor!Wang Jun looked at the Jie man as if flattered, stood up slowly, and stretched his hands forward.He is about to take the wine glass, maybe he will kneel down and kowtow again.Then he led the soldiers and horses to sweep Bingzhou for him.Just like Wei Wu's subordinates Zhang Wenyuan and Le Wenqian made great achievements...

Dese couldn't hide it anymore, and the smile on Wang Jun's face grew bigger and bigger.The hand stretched out to the edge of the cup.

It never stops.

There was a sudden tightening of the wrist, and Wang Jun felt pulled by a huge force and dragged out of the desk!Immediately, the world was spinning before his eyes, and something strangled his neck so tightly that he couldn't even breathe.

With a bang, the case was overturned, and most of the civil and military personnel suddenly stood up and exclaimed.

"General!" "Captain!" "Dare you, thief!"

What's going on here?Wang Jun was stunned for a moment, not knowing where he was.However, in the next moment, there was a pain in his throat, and a sharp object poked it.

"The great general bestows wine, but the last general is ashamed."

Behind him, there was a voice, unhurried and steady, completely opposite to the sharp object stuck in the throat with the arm strangling his neck.

A bone-piercing chill surged up, and Wang Jun struggled to open his mouth: "You...you...surrender!"

How dare he do that?In the tent, dozens of favorite generals and personal soldiers are all around.Outside the tent is an impenetrable camp of [-] strong troops.How dare he do that! ?

The man behind him did not return to him, instead he raised his head and rushed into the tent, the guards drew their swords and bows and said, "Why, are you going to rebel too? Wouldn't the great general be killed if the swords were so tense?"

The thing that was stuck in the throat penetrated again, and something sticky dripped down.The surrounding exclamations became louder, and some counselors shouted hysterically: "Put down the bow and crossbow! Put it down quickly! Don't hurt the general!"

Wang Jun opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.He should order the crossbowmen to shoot the arrows and kill this daring madman.But he dare not.It was just a copper hairpin stuck to his throat, but what is the difference between its sharp edge and a dagger?As long as it is sent lightly, it can kill people immediately.He doesn't want to die yet, he still has ambitions, he has unfinished hegemony...

Those personal soldiers hesitated, no one had ever encountered such a bizarre and terrifying thing.Maybe they were frightened by the ice-cold expression of the Jie man, or maybe they were frightened by the blood in the master's throat. Many people hesitated and lowered their hands, and some even threw away the sword in their hands.

However, they dare not act rashly, some dare!The four figures suddenly moved, and rushed towards Wen Wu who was still in shock at the banquet!

They also had no weapons in their hands.However, the wine cups, copper plates, silver spoons, and even their hair pins and clothes ties during the banquet have all become deadly weapons!With just one blow, the sword is snatched away.The bloody wind is howling!

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" A maid couldn't hold back any longer and screamed out.

An assassin was cut under the knife by the bodyguard who reacted, but the other three bloody people had already gathered around Yiyan and Wang Jun.During the banquet, there was a blood stain, and I don't know how many generals and counselors were hacked to death.These are Wang Jun's confidants and the key to commanding this army.Who else can call the shots?

"Stop! Get back!" Wang Jun hissed with red eyes.

We can't let this group of dead men succeed anymore!And those two thousand Qingqi, we must send people to eradicate them as soon as possible!But if there is such a mess in the account, can anyone still remember it?The surviving counselors and generals must be retreated out of the account before they can arrange the layout and rescue him from danger.

Wang Jun's words are more effective than anyone else's.The soldier who wanted to rush in stopped again.

However, Yiyan said: "General, why let these people retreat? Why don't we make money and talk about it?"

As he spoke, his steps moved.The big tent is divided into front and back, and the back is the sleeping tent, with only female relatives and attendants.Wang Jun was dragged by that man, like a lamb held in the mouth of a tiger, unable to even move.Seeing that the curtain was about to cover the Asura Field in front of him, Wang Jun also panicked.

"Yi... General Yi, everything is easy to discuss. As long as you put down your weapons, I will let your troops leave safely..."

"What does the general think the last general is here for?" The man behind him snorted and asked back.

"This..." Wang Jun gritted his teeth, "I can retreat and make an alliance with Liang Zixi! Jizhou will also be handed over to you!"

Life and death are at stake, Wang Jun said it very simply.Nothing is more important than your own life.If the site is lost, it can be regained.Life is gone, everything is over!

"That depends on the sincerity of the general. Dare I ask where are the seals, soldier talismans, and clearance tokens?"

The icy voice sent a chill down Wang Jun's back again: "Yes, it's at my waist. I can give you all these, and I can also make all your followers retreat..."

This is a slowing down strategy.The anger in Wang Jun's heart was equally fierce.Who can bear being plotted against like this?Once he escapes, he will let this son die without a place to bury him!

A hand reached into the kit bag on his waist, and snatched everything away.The hairpin loosened for a moment: "Thank you, General."

Wang Jun felt relieved, and just about to say something, the retreating hairpin suddenly hit and pierced the throat.How dare he? !Wang Jun gasped hoarsely, and covered his neck like a leaky bag with his hands.With a shake of his figure, he fell to the ground.

How dare he kill himself?Does he not want to escape? !He has [-] soldiers and horses!forty thousand……

Horror and unwillingness flashed in his eyes, and finally he was defeated and turned into a pool of stagnant water.

Yiyan shook off the blood on his hands, without even looking at the corpse, he said in a low voice, "Do it!"
