Chapter 139: Jingling City is cut off at night, Yishan Yingzhong Kun climbs to Qiwang
General Qian and Ban Xianfeng are dead!
The two heads opened their mouths in shock and anger, as if giving orders as usual, asking them to rush in and capture the murderer.
But out of nowhere, there was a storm. How could this scene be predicted?
A few quick-reacting guards wanted to escape towards Duba Villa the moment they heard the noise coming from the teahouse.
However, many figures jumped out from both sides of the teahouse, blocking the retreat. Some people stopped in a hurry and dared not escape anymore, but there were still a few young men who drew their swords and rushed into the formation.
Suddenly, more than a dozen weapons were thrown out from all directions, and anyone who broke into the formation was immediately killed and fell to the ground.
The elite soldiers coming from the ranch rushed forward with bloody weapons in their hands. The guards were terrified and retreated to the entrance of the teahouse.
A gentle-looking young man showed his face and shouted at them coldly:
"Don't just stand there, come in and clean up."
“Yes, yes!”
The guard of the villa who was closest to Xu Shiji was in a panic and rushed into the teahouse. The others followed suit and rushed to collect the bodies of Qian Ban and the other two.
They cleaned up the bloodstains and noticed that there were only a few people in the teahouse.
There was a man in blue sitting and drinking tea, while most of the others were standing, which showed that he was the one in charge.
The man who had just been ordered to clean up the place would look outside the door from time to time.
First, their commander was killed, then they were forced into this dangerous place, and then they had to clean up the traces and remove the bloodstains. After all this, everyone lost their fighting spirit.
After working for a while, Xu Shiji observed their reactions and asked:
"Do you know where Xiao Xian's men are?"
“I know.”
Anyone who could be secretly brought out by Qian Yun must be someone he trusts and know his activities.
As soon as one person answered, the person next to him, in order to survive, spoke up and answered:
"A few days ago, Feng Ge apprehended the thieves who were spreading rumors and surrounded a brothel belonging to the Baling Gang. The leader sent by Xiao Xin into the city was very cautious. Upon noticing something was amiss, he moved to a secret residence about ten miles away."
"Can you find it?"
"Yes." Seven or eight people nodded in unison.
Xu Shiji didn't ask any more questions, and Qian Yun's men continued to clean in anxiety.
Soon after, a "Yu" sound was heard from the door.
A general in armor dropped his reins and ran into the teahouse. When Qian Yun's men saw his face, they felt something was wrong.
The person who came was Feng Ge’s nephew, Feng Han.
He was also one of the most core deputy generals in Feng Jun’s camp, and the west gate facing Nanjun Ranch was guarded by him.
General Qian tried to seize it several times but failed.
Because of his own abilities and his relationship with Feng Ge, Feng Han is also quite famous in Jingling City.
He is basically one of the people on General Qian's kill list.
What they didn't expect was that Feng Han was extremely humble when he entered the teahouse. He knelt on one knee and performed the highest military ceremony: "Sir, Feng Han is late."
Feng Han didn't care about the looks of Qian Yun's men.
He was reminded by Fu Hong and his uncle that he knew what kind of person was in front of him.
"It's not too late. I won't keep you for tea if you have military information. Take Qian Yun back to General Feng."
"yes!"
Military affairs could not be delayed, so Feng Han agreed and withdrew.
Holding Qian Yun and Ban Shanhe's heads, he galloped away on horseback.
…
The setting sun was as red as blood, shining on the forest of spears and halberds outside the villa, adding to the solemn and murderous atmosphere.
Gong Jifan, the left vanguard of the villa, was riding his horse in front of the formation, staring coldly at the large group of people not far away.
There are more people on the side of Duba Mountain Villa, and there are 20,000 people gathered there.
The number of people brought by Feng Ge barely exceeded ten thousand.
But looking at the morale of the army, Feng Ge's side was actually better.
The people in Jingling City are used to a stable life, and Feng Ge has gained the support of the people in the city because he sticks to the alliance with Pegasus Ranch.
Instead, it was Qian Yun's various practices that were criticized.
"Feng Ge, are you going to start a war?!"
Gong Jifan loudly questioned, "You keep saying you want to avenge the manor owner, but this is Manor Owner Fang's territory. You led your men to raid the manor, but are you planning to destroy the manor owner's legacy?"
Feng Ge snorted and shouted:
"Gong Xianfeng, you are also a veteran in the manor master's personal guard. Qian Yun usurped the manor master's property and humiliated his widow. Does he have any respect for the manor master at all? You are in the personal guard, and the manor master has done you a favor, and this is how you repay him?!"
Gong Jifan was hit on a sore spot and was speechless for a moment, unable to refute.
Feng Ge gathered his strength and shouted at the enemy army:
"Brothers, many of our relatives and friends are in Jingling. Qian Yun is colluding with Xiao Xian for his own selfish reasons, hoping to destroy our alliance with Jingling Nanjun. Once chaos breaks out, the entire county will be in chaos. This goes against the will of the owner of the manor, so please do not be deceived.
Please follow Feng and kill the bandits who have caused chaos in the county, destroy this ungrateful person, and seek justice for the owner of the manor!"
Gong Jifan felt a chill down his spine when he heard some unusual movements in the army behind him.
He, the left vanguard, was promoted later and his prestige in the army was far less than that of Qian Yun himself.
Knowing that General Qian was not in the village, he was anxious and afraid.
His eyes were as big as copper bells, and he shouted at Feng Ge:
"Feng Ge, stop talking nonsense! It was clearly you who led the attack on the villa, yet you're still saying these high-sounding words."
"Shoot the arrow!"
He roared fiercely. The archer was just hesitating when General Feng interrupted Gong Jifan:
"Where's Qian Yun?!"
When they heard the name Qian Yun, the archers immediately loosened their bowstrings and looked around.
"Where is Qian Yun? Is he talking nonsense? Let him confront Feng!"
At this moment, Gong Jifan was worried about the instability of the army, so how could he dare to say that Qian Yun was not there?
"General Qian is at the farm right now, he doesn't want to see you, an old scoundrel!"
Suddenly, there was a loud sound of horse hooves in the distance.
There was a sound coming from a distance. At first, only smoke and dust could be seen, and the sound was not clear. As the horse got closer, the sound penetrated into the ears.
“Qian Yun is here! Qian Yun is here!”
Gong Jifan was horrified.
Feng Han held a head in each hand, and ran while shouting:
"Qian Yun colluded with Liang Wang Xiao Xian and violated the alliance. According to the rules set by Master Fang, he has been beheaded!"
"Ban Shanhe, the accomplice, will be beheaded together~!"
After he finished speaking, he threw Ban Shanhe's head into the right formation of the army that controlled the Villa.
The surname Ban was originally a right pioneer.
The soldiers were very familiar with him. As soon as they saw the head, someone immediately shouted, "It's Ban Xianfeng."
The archers collected their arrows together, the noise continued, and the army formation was in chaos.
Everyone looked at the other head in Feng Han's hand, and saw that it was Qian Yun.
The coach is dead, so where is the morale?
Gong Jifan's face turned pale and he shouted in panic, "First you killed the owner of the manor and then General Qian! Brothers, hurry and come to me!"
He couldn't continue speaking, as a rain of arrows shot towards Feng Ge!
These hundred feather arrows were all shot by elite soldiers who knew martial arts.
Gong Jifan formed his halberd into a circle, blocking a dozen arrows, but was shot through by seven or eight arrows and fell off his horse.
Feng Ge rode his horse forward, picked up Gong Jifan's body, and then cut off his head.
Feng Han threw out Qian Yun's head, and Feng Ge threw out Gong Jifan's head.
The commander of the villa and the left and right vanguards are in neat order.
Seeing this, the soldiers in Qian Yun's army dropped their weapons. Feng Ge's prestige was already higher than Qian Yun's, so naturally no one wanted to fight in this situation.
However, chaos broke out within the Duba Villa.
Some people who stayed in the villa and were closely related to Qian Yun took up their belongings and fled in a hurry.
Feng Ge sent people to hunt down Qian Yun, and left behind a few capable generals to re-incorporate Qian Yun's army.
He rode without stopping and led his men into the city.
Night has fallen.
To the west of the city, near the center of Jingling County, several men in black were leading seven or eight prostitutes through the alley and into a white house with a high wall outside.
These women all came from Chunman Pavilion, a brothel in the city.
After entering the house, passing through several black-clad guards, I joined a dinner party behind an elegant wooden door.
Obscene laughter gradually rose.
The hall was brightly lit, and all the furnishings were exquisite; even the wine glasses used by the five people on the table were made of silver.
Sitting at the top was a noble young man, about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, with a handsome appearance, but an unhealthy pale face. He kept inviting several people to drink, very heroically, but the cunning and lustful look in his eyes was hidden deep inside.
It was Xiang Yushan, the son of the Xiang family, who had opened brothels and human trafficking businesses throughout the Sui Dynasty.
Although his identity is despicable, he is powerful and resourceful.
There is another bandit nickname, called "Yiqishan".
The other four people sitting down and drinking there did not dare to look down on him at all.
Opposite Xiangyu Mountain, a fat and big-eared man was drinking with a lewd smile on his face. His muscles were as stiff as stone, and he was holding a plump woman in each hand.
Xiang Yushan asked with a smile, "Brother Bao, are you satisfied now?"
Bao Rang had just complained about having no one to drink with him, but Xiang Yushan had already made arrangements. He smiled and said:
"Brother, you are as meticulous as a hair. No wonder King Liang values you so much."
"But these women are of ordinary appearance. I heard that Brother Xiang has many connections and can get any kind of woman. Why don't you let me open my eyes?"
This bag made the nickname "Hercules" reach an extremely high level of external Qigong training, with a layer of horizontal Qigong shield around his body.
He made a great name for himself in Jiangnan with this achievement.
Xiang Yushan saw that he was valuable and said with a smile: "Brother, how can Yushan ignore it?"
"We'll have another banquet next time. I'll definitely get some plump beauties from the Central Plains for Brother Bao to try out."
Bao Rang was delighted when he heard this: "Brother Xiang is indeed a man of integrity! Feng Ge is trying to harm you. When I find the chance, I will kill this old fellow."
As soon as these words were spoken, the yellow-faced man next to him, with a fierce look on his face and a serrated knife on his back, nodded in agreement.
Su Chao and Bao Rang are similar. They both offended many people in the martial arts world, so they defected to Xiao Xin.
There is a desperado with a bandit name.
Su Chuo said cautiously: "Niulang and Jie Fengge are both dead. We can't follow in their footsteps."
The tall and strong man on Bao Rang's left smiled silently.
He was fearless in complaining about his wrongs. He was a vicious dog under the command of King Liang. He was originally a horse thief who wreaked havoc in eastern Guangdong. Because he angered the masters of the Song clan, he was the only one who escaped after being chased for thousands of miles.
"The entire Song clan is hunting me down. Even the Heavenly Blade is left in the dust, just looking at my back. How can a mere Jingling be a threat to me?"
"Not only did these two guys fail to succeed, but they also died in Fenchuan. It's really shameful."
Qu Wu Ju showed a look of disdain to associate with him.
Xiang Yushan and others saw this and took it for granted.
This vicious dog is quite capable and has an even bigger temper.
The Song clan's masters killed thousands of his bandits, and he managed to escape, which became a glorious event for him.
Xiang Yushan didn't pay much attention to the three thugs drinking and laughing, and looked at the middle-aged man next to him with a high nose bridge and handsome appearance.
"General Xu, you've been monopolizing the villa and talking nonsense lately. What are your plans?"
General Xu said, "They are waiting for accurate information from Pegasus Ranch. As long as Brother Xiang's information is faster than theirs, we will have the initiative."
"If Li Mi really succeeds, we will have to try a different approach."
"Jingling County and Nan County, where the Pegasus Ranch is located, are two pieces of fat meat. King Liang must have a piece of it."
After hearing this, Xiang Yushan was about to say something else.
Suddenly, another of his men rushed into the hall and said, "Sir, Xu, the military advisor under Lord Pushan, is here."
After hearing this, the five people at the table all put down their chopsticks.
They had seen this Xu guy before; he was a difficult character.
"How did he find this place?"
"Hehehe, something must have happened at the ranch, otherwise why would they come looking for us?"
Xiang Yushan waved his hand: "Please let him in."
"yes."
Everyone in the hall is from the Liang Wang clan, so naturally they won't all go to greet him, otherwise wouldn't that embarrass the Liang Wang?
Soon, three footsteps were heard outside.
The person in the front was the one who had just come to report the news.
The person following behind was Xu Shiji, whom they had met before.
Further back, there is another person.?
Bao Rang, Su Chao and Qu Wu Ju were wondering who that person was.
Suddenly I discovered that
General Xu and Xiang Yushan stood up at the same time.
General Xu pushed the woman in his arms aside, and the atmosphere in the whole hall seemed to be wrong.
Bao Rang and the other two are all masters, how could they not notice it?
The young man in green who was walking slowly towards them had a calm expression on his face. He just looked around and didn't look at them directly.
Xiang Yushan's heartbeat suddenly quickened, and he felt suffocated.
He stared at Xu Shiji, unable to hide the disbelief in his eyes.
"Military Advisor Xu, what is Lord Pushan's intention?"
Xiangyushan emphasized the three words "Pushan Gong".
Xu Shiji did not respond to this, but said indifferently:
"The Heavenly Master has arrived. You can end yourselves with dignity."
When Xu Shiji said this, he felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, in all the years he had been in Wagangzhai, he had never said such arrogant words in front of a group of masters.
Bao Rang was the most notorious villain here, and he couldn't help but suspect that he had heard it wrong.
After hearing this, Xiang Yushan felt a chill on his back.
He put on a friendly smile and asked hurriedly, "Master, is there any misunderstanding between us?"
"No misunderstanding."
Zhou Yi stared at this 'Yiqishan': "The Baling Gang and your Xiang family owe too much debt. I am here to collect the debt. How can there be any misunderstanding?"
Xiang Yushan quickly said, "My Xiang family's business is spread all over the world, and we have countless wealth. I am willing to repay the debt. If the Heavenly Master is interested, my Xiang family is willing to join him."
Xu Shiji couldn't help but look sideways at Zhou Yi.
This is a huge temptation for those who have ambitions to dominate.
If it was Mi Gong, he would have already called Brother Xiang to sit down with a smile.
"Some debts can be repaid with money, but others require your life. What good is it to accumulate so much gold and silver through vile means?"
Xiang Yushan looked at this indifferent young man and felt that all the cunning tricks in his mind were useless.
"Kill! Someone, kill him~!"
He took three steps back, roaring as he went, causing footsteps to be heard everywhere.
The Baling gang members are gathering!
Several women in the brothel were so frightened that they ran in all directions. A loud shout was heard in the chaos:
"court death--!"
Bao Rang had never suffered such humiliation before, and in a rage he overturned the dining table and threw it at Zhou Yi.
He leaped up and hid behind the table, his whole body covered with a layer of Qi shield. Qu Wu Ju and Su Chao also took action. The man was very skilled in martial arts, and the opportunity to besiege him could not be missed.
Zhou Yi threw a punch, and the tabletop shattered into pieces like a spider web with the punch as the core. The wood chips and the fist wind rushed towards Hercules Bao Rang.
That layer of Qi training shield was so powerful that it actually blocked the wood chips out.
Bao Rang became more powerful, but Zhou Yi's punches did not decrease. The two punches collided with each other, and a strong gust of wind was released!
In an instant, the horizontal training Qigong shield that made Bao Rang famous was shattered like glass. His right fist was frozen and his entire arm was covered with ice. The clothes on his body were penetrated by the Qi and melted along with the broken Qi shield.
Even the blood he spat out was blown back into his face by the strong wind.
“Boom~!”
Bao Rang smashed two high chairs, causing Xiang Yushan, who was about to escape, to stop.
This attack happened in a split second, and Su Chao and Qu Wu Ju were terrified, but they could not retract their attack. They had to take advantage of this opportunity to force the powerful enemy back and then escape.
Qu Wu Ju wielded a pair of "Xuan Lei Hong" iron hammers and smashed them down with great force and power.
Su Cho's serrated knife also went straight to the heart.
Just as the two men were about to kill, they suddenly felt a strange tightening of space, and their strength was immediately hindered. However, at this moment, Zhou Yi placed his left and right hands on the surface of Qu Wu Jue's Xuan Lei Hammer and pushed it to both sides.
Qu Wu Ju was hit by a huge force, and he couldn't resist it even if he tried his best!
The two-handed hammer swung uncontrollably to both sides.
The sledgehammer in his right hand spun, creating a big hole in Su Chao's chest, and the sledgehammer in his left hand lost its power and flew away.
He stretched out his arms, and the door opened.
Zhou Yi kicked Qu Wu Jue's chin with great force. Qu Wu Jue couldn't even scream. He flew into the air and smashed the roof. His head was stuck in the tile frame and his body kept shaking, like a hanged man on the roof.
The three masters died too quickly, and within a short time of their encounter, Xu Shiji blocked their way.
There was no possibility for General Xu and Xiangyushan to escape.
The group of Baling gang members outside the house, dressed in black, had heard Xiang Yushan's shouts and rushed forward with swords in hand.
At this time, they gathered at the door and saw the miserable state of Bao Rang, Qu Wu Ju and Su Cho.
Everyone knew the names of the three people and they were all frightened and retreated.
The timid ones were already screaming and shouting, fleeing in panic.
But when they got outside, there was another fight.
After Zhou Yi eliminated the three evils, he picked up the big iron hammer that Qu Wu Ju dropped and held it in his hand as lightly as if it were a feather.
Xiang Yushan's face turned pale and he fell to his knees with a thud.
"Master, please spare my life. My Xiang family will serve you like slaves for generations!"
He knelt down for two steps, kowtowed repeatedly in his pleading, as if to arouse people's sympathy for the weak. If he could arouse the enemy's pity, he would have a better chance of survival.
"How dare you, a beast who only knows how to bully the weak and traffic in women, beg for mercy?"
Xiang Yushan lowered his head, as if he didn't see the sledgehammer in Zhou Yi's hand that could take his life at any time.
Zhou Yi didn't say anything more and just struck him with a hammer.
The hammer was powerful, but he deliberately controlled the speed.
When Xiang Yushan heard the sound of the wind, he immediately kicked his legs together and leaned back to hide. His eyes were full of ruthlessness, and he swung out a hidden weapon with a black glow with his left and right hands!
Zhou Yi swung his sledgehammer down, and the strong wind alone deflected the hidden weapon.
He suddenly sped up, making it impossible for Xiang Yushan to dodge completely.
The sledgehammer came down, hitting him hard in the crotch.
“Ugh—!!”
The hysterical screams that followed made Xu Shiji's scalp tighten.
This hammer did not destroy his martial arts, but turned the martial arts of the young man from the Xiang family brothel into powder.
"good!"
General Xu cheered, "I don't know how many decent women this Xiang has harmed. This move by the Heavenly Master is truly a relief and a great relief to all!"
Zhou Yi glanced at him and swung the hammer again.
The hammer hit Xiang Yushan's chest, who fainted from the pain, leaving a big hole and completely killing this most disgusting person.
"Cut off his head and have someone send it to the Xiang family."
Zhou Yichong said to Xu Shiji calmly:
"Other people's daughters are lost and can never be found again, but I will send his head back to the Xiang family to give them more comfort."
"yes."
Xu Shiji responded. He looked at the young master of the Xiang family lying on the ground, and then looked at Zhou Yi.
I discovered in my heart that there were more differences between him and Mi Gong.
It can even be said that there is a world of difference.
Deep in my heart, I suddenly felt a lot of instinctive identification.
At this time, General Xu said again:
"The Xiang family must be extremely grateful. The Heavenly Master is so generous and kind, a rare sight in this world."
Zhou Yi looked at him with some doubt: "You are braver than them."
"Master, you are too kind. I am also very afraid of death, but facing a figure like the Master, fear is useless. It is better to be honest."
"Xiao Xin can't protect you."
General Xu bowed and said, "Although I am a subordinate of Xiao Xin, I have a different identity."
"oh?"
General Xu said frankly, "I come from Mobei. Not only do I serve the Great Khan Jie Li, but I also have a close connection with the Great Ming Zunjiao. The Heavenly Master may be able to use me if he keeps me here."
Zhou Yi's eyes swept over him.
This guy has a point, he is indeed useful.
but
Zhou Yi suddenly remembered something: "What's your name?"
"My name is Xu Xuanche. I was once the commander of the Yuezhou brigade. I currently command 5,000 troops under Xiao Xin. Heavenly Master..."
When Xu Xuanche said this, he felt his whole body shaking violently. He was kicked hard before he could react in time, and he was kicked away and the wooden wall of the hall collapsed!
“You you.”
He called out "you" a few times and died with his eyes open.
Xu Shiji, who was fiddling with Xiangyushan's corpse, looked surprised.
"Why did the Heavenly Master kill him?"
He stood up and asked in confusion, "This man controls Xiao Xin's army and has access to news from the grasslands. Isn't he very useful?"
"You're right, he has a role to play, but he deserves to die even more."
Zhou Yi looked at Qu Wu Jue swaying on the roof, a look of nostalgia on his face:
"In my early years, when I was still on Mount Fuzi in Yongqiu, a man named Kuang Hui came up the mountain and killed people from my temple. He was a subordinate of King Liang and a disciple of Xu Xuanche. This man owed me a huge debt, so I should kill him."
Xu Shiji's pupils dilated, and he felt a vengeance in his heart.
I felt somewhat relieved, as it seemed that I had made a great profit by paying off my debt.
I've already met two people tonight who have debts they can't repay.
He also reminded himself to earn more merits so as to find a way to make a living for himself and Luoyan.
"Luoyan, do you know that Xu has been working tirelessly for you from thousands of miles away?"
For a moment, I felt a sense of empathy.
He looked towards Xingyang and suddenly asked, "Why did the King of Liang come to Confucius Mountain at that time?"
"Xiao Xin had his eye on Taiping Daocheng, but Kuang Hui's actions at the time didn't seem like he was coming up the mountain to discuss matters. Instead, it seemed like he was seeking revenge. I was confused at the time, but now I feel the fog has cleared up."
Zhou Yi's eyes were clear:
"Kuang Hui is a disciple of Xu Xuanche, who is also connected to the Great Ming Zun Sect. If the Taiping Dao enters Xiao Xing's territory, once it develops, it will inevitably become hostile to the Great Ming Zun Sect's successors. Rather than a future dispute over the Daoist lineage, it is better to destroy it now."
Xu Shiji suddenly understood and felt a lot of emotion.
When it comes to the debt owed to the Heavenly Master, Xiao Xin is still ahead.
King Liang, you are really good at picking your opponents. Your vision is no less than that of Lord Mi.
After quickly dealing with the heads in Xiangyu Mountain, Xu Shiji apologized and went out to kill the thieves and traffickers of the Baling Gang.
Zhou Yi didn't have to worry about anything that night.
Xu Shiji led his men to attack Xu Xuanche's garrison, and cooperated with Feng Ge's men to wipe out this group of people, eliminating the last hidden danger in Jingling County.
The county town, which had been in chaos for a long time, finally calmed down.
The next day, afternoon.
Zhou Yi was once again invited into Feng Jun’s camp.
General Feng walked out of the tent and greeted them together with his deputy general Pu Qin, staff members Fu Hong, Feng Han and others.
Feng Ge did not hide it, and this scene was seen by a large number of soldiers around.
Moreover, he also changed his title.
"Grand Commander!"
"General Feng."
Feng Ge clasped his hands together and was about to salute when Zhou Yi held him and pulled him towards the commander's tent with a smile.
All the important members of the army followed.
"Thanks to the Grand Commander's help, we were able to destroy Qian Yun and drive back Xiao Xian, bringing an end to the rebellion in Jingling County and restoring its former peace."
Feng Ge added, "I have ordered people to preach in the city, so that the people of Jingling will know about the great governor's kindness."
"It was mainly the soldiers fighting, I didn't do much."
"Hey, Grand Commander, don't be so modest. I, Feng, already know about your great deeds in the two counties."
"good."
At this time, Liang Zhi, the chief steward beside Zhou Yi, stood up and said loudly:
"My ranch was also in great danger this time. It was the Grand Commander who stepped in to help us eliminate the four major bandits, 81 leading bandits, and tens of thousands of bandits who were wreaking havoc everywhere!
Even the powerful sand bandits from Mobei who invaded the Middle Earth were completely annihilated."
Some people around heard the news for the first time and were shocked and extremely happy.
While Liang Zhi was speaking, he looked at Feng Ge from time to time.
How could Feng Ge not understand what that meant?
If Chen Ruiyang's attitude was not clear last time, Liang Zhi could express a lot more.
He is the chief steward of the ranch and takes orders directly from the ranch owner.
What surprised Zhou Yi was that Liang Zhi took out another letter from his arms.
"General Feng, this letter is written by my master. It concerns the safety of the two counties. Please take a look."
Feng Ge picked up the letter that Zhou Yi was curious about. He didn't know that Liang Zhi also carried the owner's calligraphy book.
General Feng opened it and took a look.
The letter was not long and I finished reading it in a few seconds.
His eyes didn't change much, obviously he had seen through it.
Feng Ge is a straightforward person. After experiencing all these things, he already knows where Jingling is going.
At this time, I thought of the late Fang Zetao and said:
"Grand Commander, do you know what will Master Fang left behind when he passed away?"
Zhou Yi shook his head: "Although I sent people to communicate with Master Fang, I didn't get the chance to meet him."
Feng Ge said, "The owner of the manor has recruited soldiers, but he has not committed any offense to the surrounding area. He is simply keeping the thieves out and maintaining peace in the area. He hopes that Jingling will remain peaceful and stable."
"That's right," said Fu Hong, Master Fang's aide, stroking his beard. "So the Master also left a message: whoever is capable of quelling the Jingling Rebellion will take over this county and become the new sole master of the Manor."
Feng Ge glanced at Fu Hong and then nodded.
Then, he took the small gray package from the table, knelt on one knee, and presented it with both hands:
"The seals of Jingling are all inside. From today on, the Grand Commander is the master of Jingling!"
Fu Hong, Feng Han and others followed suit.
The other generals understood and followed suit.
"Please ask the Grand Commander to seal it!"
Everyone shouted!
Zhou Yi didn't have to refuse. Xu Shiji came forward very considerately and handed the seal package to Zhou Yi, then stepped back and paid his respects together.
Zhou Yi took the seal and helped several generals stand up.
In Jingling City, the transfer of power had already been completed.
The situation in the big tent quickly spread to the military camp, and discussions were heard everywhere.
Ever since Feng Ge shouted "Grand Commander", the discussion has never stopped.
At this moment, the identity of this Grand Commander was confirmed. He was the one who dominated the Yangtze and Huaihe Rivers!
At this moment, the soldiers in the army are more excited.
Everyone had been feeling uneasy after Manor Master Fang's death, but now they were finally relieved.
When it comes to the heroes of the time, who can surpass this great commander?
In addition, as the details of the suppression of the rebellion in Jingling and Nanjun counties spread, Feng Ge's decision was undoubtedly recognized by the vast majority of people.
Zhou Yi stayed in Jingling City for another three days.
During this period, he showed up many times in the military camp and in the city.
Led by Feng Ge, they went to Duba Villa. The concubine of the owner Fang was worried when she saw another "owner" coming, but she was secretly happy when she saw Zhou Yi.
However, Zhou Yi did not inherit the legacy of Wei Wu.
He only asked General Feng to properly arrange for Fang Zetao's widow and descendants, and then offered a stick of incense to Old Fang.
Thank him for this legacy.
"Military Advisor Fu, have we met before?"
"No."
It was the fifth day that Qu Wu Jue's head was hanging from the roof.
Zhou Yi rode his horse towards the west of the city.
Fu Hong stood aside, smiling, "It's just that I've heard of the name of the Heavenly Master before and have done a lot of research on it."
Zhou Yi glanced at the old man.
He added, "I have another friend, Xu Xingzhi. Before the Heavenly Master came to Jingling, I received a letter from Xu Xingzhi."
"However, Master Fang was still alive at that time, so I didn't respond."
At this point, Zhou Yi already understood.
"I may be away from Jingling for a long time, so I'll have to trouble you two to take care of this place."
Feng Ge and Fu Hong clasped their fists together and said, "Understood!"
Zhou Yi said goodbye to them with a smile and rode his horse towards Pegasus Ranch.
At the city gate, Feng Ge watched the figure disappear before saying to Fu Hong:
"Brother Fu, how many things are you hiding from me? Why did Xu Xingzhi show up again?"
Fu Hong's thin old face forced a smile:
"That's not a lie, I haven't done anything treacherous.
Besides, take a look at this new lord I chose for Jingling. Is there anything wrong with him?"
Feng Ge shook his head: "There's nothing wrong with this.
He posted a notice, seemingly bringing the "Clean Stream" policy to Jingling, asking us to be more considerate of the people. Even Master Fang is not as generous and benevolent as him."
Fu Hong's smile widened: "Now that you have a benevolent master, what else do you, Old Feng, have to complain to me about?"
"Forget it," Feng Ge waved his hands repeatedly, "Just don't hide it from me anymore."
"Okay, then I'll tell you another piece of news."
"oh?"
Fu Hong whispered, "This person really likes the chicken soup you make, Old Feng. You should pass on this skill. Feng Han is quite good, you can make him your successor and teach him the key techniques of preparing chicken."

Taiping Chronicle:
"In the late summer of the twelfth year of Daye, the Heavenly Master of Zhou pacified the invaders in Jingling.
I happened to meet the old general Feng Ge and ate his cooked pheasant. I was amazed by it. It was so fresh and tender that it penetrated into my bones. I have never forgotten it.

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "I always cherish talents, so I will forgive your debt."
