Chapter 659 Think of a way
With a respectful response, the attendant hurriedly ran to deliver the order. As for whether the order was reasonable or not, and whether to advise His Majesty on such matters, it was not his job as an attendant. Yes, he has positioned himself very correctly.
After the attendants withdrew, Yan Sheng did not leave the general Xie Liancheng idle. He directly ordered a hundred soldiers and horses to him and asked him to keep an eye on every move in Huangsha City.
After Long Zhantian died in the battle, although there were still some young generals in his army, they were basically unable to take action. He asked them to bring a hundred soldiers and horses over, fearing that they would never come back. .
Although Jie Liancheng is a bastard, he does have some strength. Instead of letting him sit here and become an eyesore, it is better to find something to send him away.
A hundred soldiers and horses are nothing to Yan Sheng, he can suppress them with a flip of his hands.
On the other hand, if these one hundred soldiers and horses understand Liancheng, the probability of completing the mission will increase a lot, and they will be able to escape unscathed no matter what happens.
Of course, among the hundred soldiers and horses, the faction's confidant Yan Sheng still knew how to send one, and directly parachuted a deputy general to Jie Liancheng.
Jie Liancheng, who had expected this, did not show any surprise.
After seeing Xie Liancheng retreat, a trace of ferocity flashed in Yan Sheng's eyes, whose irritability had not completely subsided.
"Call that eunuch in alone, and everyone else out!"
The order was given, and the attendants in the hall quickly retreated, and a man in eunuch clothes walked in with a tense face.
It was the eunuch who was guarding beside the bed in Yan Sheng's palace at that time.
When he saw the other party, without saying a word, Yan Sheng kicked him to the ground. Then, as if he still felt that he was not relieved enough, he walked up and kicked him violently, causing the eunuch to scream in agony.
In the end, he stepped on the opponent's legs with a violent look on his face.
The eunuch's descendant Gen Gen had long been castrated, and Yan Sheng's move at this time was more of a humiliation to the other party.
Looking at the eunuch who fell to the ground, crying in pain and begging for mercy, Yan Sheng showed a cruel smile.
"What? Are you unhappy? Do you think the solo kick is not good?"
Hearing this, the eunuch trembled, endured the pain, and squeezed out a sentence .
"Your Majesty, your Majesty played well, my slave is happy."
The voice of the eunuch who said this was trembling.
"Happy? Why don't you smile when you are happy?!"
As Yan Sheng spoke, he kicked up the soles of his shoes hard.
The eunuch looked pale in pain, but knowing Yan Sheng's temperament, he finally forced out a smile that was uglier than crying.
"The slave is smiling. Smiling..."
During this period, the attendants and guards guarding the house outside the house were all silent at this moment. They felt somewhat sympathetic to the eunuch's experience, but that was the extent of it.
Who dares to intercede for His Majesty the First Emperor, knowing his temper?
At the same time, Jie Liancheng, who had gathered a hundred soldiers and horses, had already set off directly.
Riding on the horse, he glanced at the deputy general who was half a horse's length behind him from the corner of his eye.
In the past, he didn't care about the existence of this 'deputy general'. After all, he never planned to engage in rebellion from the beginning, so naturally he was not afraid of having a 'deputy general' watching him.
But now the situation is different. Zhou Xu's appearance has changed his situation tremendously. Now from Xie Liancheng's perspective, this 'deputy general' is somewhat of an eyesore.
【We have to find a way to deal with this guy, and then meet Hongxu. 】
As a modern person, compared to the aborigines here, Xie Liancheng's mind is relatively bright. Along the way, he quickly came up with ideas in his mind. On the third day after leaving Black Rock City, after setting off in the morning, they had only walked for two hours. After appraising the distance, Jie Liancheng raised his hand to signal the troops to stop.
“Let’s just go here. There are centaur mercenaries on the opposite side. If the camp is too close, we will be in trouble if they keep harassing us at night.”
Although the deputy general was the spy arranged by Yan Sheng, he nodded in agreement with Xie Liancheng's decision.
A simple camp was quickly set up, and Xie Liancheng turned around and called the deputy general to his tent.
Hearing the general's summons, the deputy general's body tensed unconsciously.
No way, who told them that this general is really notorious? Among all the civil and military officials in the dynasty, this was the only person who dared to behave wildly in front of His Majesty the First Emperor, and he was still okay.
“I wonder what the general has to do with his subordinates?”
Throughout the whole process, the deputy general acted very cautiously, fearing that if he said a wrong word, he would be targeted by Xie Liancheng.
During this period, Xie Liancheng arranged things without raising his head.
“Since we have to keep an eye on every move in Huangsha City and keep guarding this camp, it’s definitely not possible. We’d better send a small reconnaissance team to keep an eye on Huangsha City. We can also be on guard to prevent the enemy troops from approaching without us knowing."
Hearing this, the lieutenant general nodded subconsciously.
Xie Liancheng continued...
"Considering that there are centaur mercenaries on the opposite side with the ability to operate at night, it is best for our reconnaissance team and patrol team to be divided into two shifts, day and night."
The deputy general nodded again, and the solution Liancheng was still there saying...
"The camp is stable most of the time, so there is no need to worry about it. The reconnaissance team near Huangsha City has many situations to deal with and needs to make arrangements individually. Someone with enough ability will lead the team."
As he spoke, Xie Liancheng's eyes fell on the deputy general.
At this moment, no matter how slow the lieutenant was, he should have reacted.
"Me?"
"To be precise, it's you and me. Apart from the two of us, there are no other generals in this troop."
Xie Liancheng He curled his lips rather speechlessly.
“Your Majesty doesn’t know what he is thinking, so he just gave me a hundred troops and horses. He doesn’t even have any generals to use. For such a trivial matter, I need to personally lead the troops!”
Having said this, Xie Liancheng glanced at the deputy general who seemed to have something to say.
"What? Aren't you happy? Do you feel wronged by asking you to lead the reconnaissance team like me?" I couldn't help but shiver.
"No, no! The general has an order, and no subordinate dares to disobey it!"
As he spoke, the deputy general knelt down on one knee.
Don’t forget, this is a fool. If he offends someone, he will just chop himself, and he won’t be able to complain.
Although the lieutenant general did not forget their Majesty's order, this person always had to be smart if he wanted to live a long life.
And in the view of the lieutenant, they only have a hundred troops in total. When they go out to perform reconnaissance missions, considering that it is a shift and people have to be left to guard the camp, the maximum number of troops for one team is only one hundred. There are twenty or thirty people. Although the general is brave, can he still use this small number of people to plot and usurp the throne?
