Chapter 788 Unexpected

Someone once said that the night is the best cover of all sins, but this chaotic era has no distinction between justice and evil. What the night hides may be killing and has nothing to do with good and evil. In such a chaotic world, no matter how many people proclaim their kindness, righteousness and morality, it is just some jokes that are not ridiculous.

Promoting benevolence and righteousness is a somewhat self-deception way for the Han people in the Central Plains to rule the people, just like the scimitar in the hands of grassland people.

But there is no doubt that there is no so-called justice and morality in such troubled times.

The Yanyun Army camp was stationed on the west bank of the Zhang River, and the Xia army's camp was sixty miles away. Both sides deliberately maintained this distance, and it seemed to be peaceful. But both sides knew that this was just a rare peace before the storm. The Yanyun Army had only about 40,000 troops, and the disadvantage of insufficient troops after the previous advance was blocked was reflected. The Xia army did not dare to counterattack easily, and the Yanyun Army's large group of troops would arrive at this place soon.

Once the war is in a stalemate, if the reinforcements of Yanyun Army arrive, the Xia army will be trapped immediately and have no power to turn over.

If all the troops were mobilized to destroy Xue Wanche's men and there was no certainty of winning, I was afraid that the gain would not be worth the loss.

For Wang Fubao, taking advantage of this rare opportunity to calm down the defense is the most important thing. Daxia is now facing an unprecedented crisis, and it seems that he will bear all the dangers through them. Although he knew that Dou Jiande did not trust him, he was able to hand over the military power to him at the most important time, which made Wang Fubao feel grateful.

Thanksgiving, Wang Fubao is now very different from the foolish and loyal Wang Fubao in the past.

He was an old minister who first followed Dou Jiande to rebel against Sui. In terms of qualifications, no one in the court in Daxia can compare with him. No one of the old brothers who were in charge of the first to fight with him was able to survive this troubled times safely. After Dou Jiande was defeated and fled around him, none of them had a good ending. Liu Heita was better, but died at the hands of Li Xian, Yan Yunjun.

But Yin Qiu Shizan, the minister of the humerus, was wrongly killed by Dou Jiande!

According to military merits, Wang Fubao is undoubtedly the number one person in Daxia.

According to qualifications, Wang Fubao is undoubtedly the number one person in Daxia.

But this first person has been living an unhappy life over the years. Since Su Dingfang died, Dou Jiande has become increasingly distrustful of the old ministers. In addition to his brother-in-law Cao Dan, others in his eyes may rebel. Especially Wang Fubao, who has a high prestige in the army, has become a big trouble for Dou Jiande.

At some point, Dou Jiande even felt that he was more dangerous than foreign enemies.

After Wang Fubao's adopted son Wang Zhu was sent back to Mingzhou to recuperate, there were actually not many confidants in the army. After all, he had not led troops in recent years. If it weren't for Daxia's life and death, Dou Jiande would still refuse to use him. And several important generals in the army, such as Dugu Xue, and Su Zhi, respected him very much, but actually did not have any sense of identity in his heart.

These new generals always feel that they are no different from the old future of the court.

Half a month after Wang Wu returned to Mingzhou, a woman in Taoist robe walked into Wang Fubao's mansion. She stayed in the Wang family's mansion for an hour, and after she came out, she got on a carriage and headed towards the direction of the palace. Not long after, a large number of imperial guards and a eunuch of rice paper entered Wang Fubao's home.

Before the sun rose the next morning, a team of cavalrymen of about 300 people left Mingzhou City and rushed to the southeast. The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate saw a familiar figure in the cavalry. After thinking for a long time, they remembered that the person was King Bo of Anguo.

But the officers and soldiers guarding the gate were a little puzzled that there seemed to be a eunuch in brocade clothes following Wang Bo. Moreover, those who escorted Wang Bo out of the city were imperial guards. He saw Wang Bo and saw the eunuch, but he did not notice that behind Wang Bo there was a man who deliberately lowered his head and had a black scarf covering his head and face.

The cavalry team traveled day and night and arrived at Qingzhang as fast as possible. After entering the city, they learned that Wang Fubao was in the camp about a hundred miles southeast of Qingzhang. The cavalry team stopped for a minute and rushed directly to the city. There were about five miles away from the camp, and the cavalry team changed their clothes on the side of the road. Especially the young eunuch, who had changed into new official uniforms.

Although he was very favored in the palace, it was the first time he came out so far to pass the imperial edict. So he was inevitably a little excited. The imperial envoy represented the royal majesty, so naturally he couldn't just rush over. He washed his face on the side of the road and changed his official uniforms. Then the group continued to set off.

The only person in the team who covered his face with a black scarf did not change his clothes or say a word. When others were washing their faces and dressing up, he was the only one sitting alone. He lowered his head and looked at his dirty boots, unable to see the expression on his face, but the sadness and despair in his eyes were irresistible.

I'm just a little person.

He murmured, his tone of sadness.

But soon, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"The little guy... has the same chance..."

...

...

Wang Bo entered the military camp again after two years, which made him a little excited. Since Dou Jiande was promoted and secretly surrendered to replace the position of Wei County County magistrate, he has not touched military power for two years, the most fascinating of all kinds of rights in the world.

If you don’t control the army, you don’t know the beauty of controlling the army.

Being a local official, managing the people of a city and a place is far less than controlling the pleasure of the army. The feeling of commanding the front army is so obsessive.

When Wang Bo arrived at the gate of Xia Jun camp, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then moaned comfortably. You know, the smell in the military camp was not pleasant, but he enjoyed it very much. It was a long-lost smell.

The taste of rights.

The Xia soldiers guarding the gate were surprised to see a group of armored imperial guards coming. They heard that the capital had an order came and hurriedly invited Wang Fubao. Wang Fubao was discussing military affairs with his generals in the big tent. When he heard that the order had come, he quickly led the generals out of the big tent to greet him.

A long way away, Wang Fubao recognized Wang Bo. Seeing this man appearing in the military camp, Wang Fubao's pupils immediately contracted. His mind was dazed for a moment, and his heart tightened. After seeing Wang Fubao, he walked a few steps quickly, clasped his fists and said, "I haven't seen the general for a long time since I left the capital. Are you fine?"

Wang Fubao also hugged and said, "After Mr. Bo is concerned, everything is fine."

"I'm afraid it will be a little bad later."

Wang Bo's smile suddenly became cold, and he immediately moved away from his body. Wu Wein, the eunuch in the imperial study room holding the imperial edict, walked out from behind Wang Bo with a stern face, looked at Wang Fubao with a cold look and then cleared his throat: "Your Majesty has the will to General Wang, please kneel down and listen to the order!"

"I wear iron armor, and according to the rules, I don't have to kneel down to accept the order."

Wang Fubao owed his body slightly and said, "Please read it out by the imperial envoy."

"You don't have to kneel down when wearing armor. Our Daxia court does have this rule, but that is also the rule set by Your Majesty, not the rule you said. General Wang, since you use this as an excuse to refuse to kneel down, don't blame me for being rude... The person who came, took off Wang Fubao's armor and put down his weapons!"

"Who dares!"

Several of Wang Fubao's confidant generals took a step forward, holding the handle of the knife in his hand and blocking Wang Fubao's body.

“Bold!”

More than a dozen imperial guards rushed forward and surrounded Wang Fubao. Some of the generals behind Wang Fubao were furious, some were surprised, and more were at a loss. But Wang Fubao's personal soldiers ignored this and immediately rushed up to surround the imperial guards again.

"Even if His Majesty asks me to remove my armor, I need to give a reason."

Wang Fubao's face turned gloomy and said, "Before your imperial edict is read, you dare to be the next weapon of the second-grade general. Who gave you the courage?! Look at you being timid and speechless... Say! Are you pretending to be an imperial edict and trying to rebel!"

Wu had never seen this scene. He was used to being arrogant in the palace and never saw swords and weapons. He was indeed in awe of the officials, but he knew what was written in the decree, so he really had no respect for a general who was about to be entrusted to the capital for trial. The officials in the capital were somewhat cursing to him. Who would have spoken to him like such a fierce and evil spirit? At this time, Wang Fubao shouted sternly, and the murderous aura on his body immediately spread out. Wu felt a chill in his heart.

“Big…bold!”

He cursed with a trembling tone: "What I hold in my hand is His Majesty's will. Do you dare to resist the will be disrespectful?"

"It is unknown whether the will is true or false!"

Wang Fubao has experienced ups and downs and knew that he could only insist that the eunuch was fake and his will was fake, otherwise he would lose his military power once he was taken down and lost his military power. Now Daxia is on the verge of perishing, and if he has no military power, he can only be killed by someone.

"Come!"

He pointed at Wu Bishop and shouted loudly: "Take this eunuch who tried to rebel and usurp military power and send it to the capital for trial! If anyone resists and kills him, he will not be allowed!"

After receiving the order, Wang Fubao's personal soldiers rushed forward and immediately put out the weapons of the imperial guards. Hundreds of imperial guards were in awe of them in the capital, but at this time, they were so scared that they didn't even dare to show off their anger. They looked at each other, and no one knew what to do.

"stop!"

At this moment, Wang Bo took a step forward and blocked Wu Mou, pointing to someone behind him and said, "General Wang, even if this eunuch is fake, am I fake? Even if you don't take me seriously, is the person behind me also fake? Do you know that this person is in the capital and reveals to Your Majesty that you have a disobedient heart!"

He pulled out the man behind him and pulled off the black scarf from his face: "Let's see who this is!"

"Father……"

The man who had been torn off the black scarf to cover his face slowly knelt down, raised his head and looked at Wang Fubao in fear... This person was Wang Hu!

...

...

When Wang Fubao saw Wang Yao slowly kneeling in front of him, he knew that the situation was coming. There were not many generals in the army who were loyal to him. If he had just taken the lead and seized Wang Bo and the hundreds of imperial guards, many of his generals would have to follow him. But at this time, Wang Yao appeared, and the opportunity he had robbed him before would collapse immediately.

"Father……"

Wang Hu raised his head and glanced at Wang Fubao, and immediately lowered his head.

"Roar?"

Wang Fubao was stunned and looked at the person kneeling in front of him and couldn't help but shake his head in pain: "I really didn't expect it would be you... you... you did a big thing!"

His body shook a few times and almost fell.

"Father... they forced me!"

Wang Bo suddenly stood up and pointed at Wu Bet and said loudly: "It was this eunuch who colluded with Wang Bo to try to usurp the throne! Your Majesty has been killed by them, and they are here to seize military power! As long as the military power is seized, Wang Bo can ascend to the throne! Father, this man is a wolfish ambition and tortures the child in the capital! If the child doesn't listen to them, they say they want to kill all the veterans in the mansion... The child is forced to do so!"

"What?!"

Wang Fubao was suddenly shocked and his face changed suddenly. The dozens of generals behind him were also scared to death for an instant, and he looked at Wu and others incredibly.

"Do a word!"

Wu Zheng was so angry that his hands trembled. He stepped forward and wanted to grab Wang Zhu's clothes and argue. But he stopped again as soon as he took his steps, because he saw Wang Zhu sneer at him. The cold and cold smile made him scared, and fear suddenly jumped up from his bones.

At this moment, two things happened almost at the same time.

Wang Yao stepped forward and grabbed Wu Wean's neck with one arm, raised the popular eunuch in the palace with one hand, and used a force on his wrist and broke Wu Wean's neck with a click. Poor this eunuch who had left the capital for the first time, had a stream of blood flowing out of his mouth, so he didn't even have time to say anything and just killed him.

The second thing was that when Wang Yao stepped forward, Wang Bo immediately turned around and snatched the reins from an imperial soldier's hand, and immediately rushed out of the camp by horse.

The sudden change is so unexpected!
