PS: Today is not only the last day of a month, but also the last day of a year, so it is particularly important for the fight for hegemony. Because whether we can maintain our position on the monthly ticket list in the last month of 2013, and whether we can create a miracle for fans of the book Zest for Hegemony, depends on these last ten hours. As we all know, the position of the monthly vote list changes in the last hour of the last day of each month. If I don¡¯t want to be squeezed out, I can only rely on you! It has already been eleven months before the monthly pass. Would you be depressed if you were removed from the list at the last hour? We must leave some memories in 2013. How great is it that you work together to support a book and an author? Come on, it¡¯s the last day, friends who still have monthly votes, please vote for the fight for hegemony! Chapter 630: A more direct approach When the matter reaches its current situation, it seems that no one can stop it from continuing to develop. Although Fang Jie's tone of voice was not vicious, it was like a knife cutting into everyone's hearts, making them shiver. It is difficult for people like Liu Di and Yu Wenbo to understand why Fang Jie would do such an impulsive and hasty thing. If he was a scheming person who knew that leading troops south could not do without the support of local wealthy families, even if he was angry, he would not make the matter so big that there was no room for recovery. Fang Jie¡¯s approach is completely inconsistent with common sense. Liu Di once said that even if Fang Jie found out that it was Liu Feng, the city gatekeeper, who arrested him, the matter would not cause too much trouble, because Liu Feng could just use the sentence of arresting the suspicious person. There is no doubt that Liu Feng killed all those twenty people who completely angered Fang Jie. So when he figured this out, Liu Di started to feel nervous. Fang Jie is like a tiger protecting its calves, and those Black Flag Army soldiers are like his children. Whoever hurts his children will turn into a crazy tiger without any scruples, which is heart-stopping. Although Du Jianzhou knew that Fang Jie's anger could not be calmed easily, he also knew that Liu Di must not be involved in this matter. Once a local family was involved, the consequences would be unbearable for anyone. Fang Jie has already expressed his position, that is, he will dig out the mastermind behind it regardless. And once dug out, blood may flow into a river. As the governor of Nanhui Province, he can only stand firmly on the side of the local aristocratic family and cannot stand with Fang Jie, so there will be bloodshed in Dago City today. This is not what Du Jianzhou wants to see, he is afraid. "I can understand General Fang's mood." Du Jianzhou calmed down for a moment and walked to Fang Jieshen and said in a gentle tone: "As a general, the soldiers under his command are partners, comrades and brothers. Naturally, my brother died in vain, so he cannot sit idly by. So even if Liu Feng was the captain of the county army under me, and these county soldiers were captured by you, I didn't come forward to speak, just because I could understand your mood, and I wouldn't defend you in this matter. Liu Feng made a mistake, and he should bear the responsibility. These county soldiers participated, and they should bear the responsibility So I leave the life and death of these people to you, the general. I will never intervene, and I will treat their deaths as unjust." The underlying meaning is that I hope you can stop it. It would be enough to kill Liu Feng, or even these five hundred county soldiers. If we dig deeper, it won't be good for anyone. He pulled up a chair and sat down next to Fang Jie. He tilted his head and lowered his voice and said, "What you said just now was not a casual comment. Although you are young, you must have an extraordinary mind with your current achievements. So you should know that if you want to be in the Southwest, The foundation of all Taoism cannot be separated from the support of these people. I am older than you. I am not saying this to you as the governor of Nanhui Road, but as an elder" "You lead the army to fight in southern Xinjiang. It is a matter of serving the country and the people. But you also know that it is not easy to fight without local support. Sometimes the army may not win even if its soldiers dare to die. , it is a great benefit to your Black Flag Army. You can understand that the name of your Black Flag Army will be resounding throughout the Central Plains. But this cannot be achieved without local support Why are you so impulsive? " What he said had a pleading tone. He knew that Fang Jie was not stupid, and his words had made it clear that Fang Jie should not delve into it any further. "As long as today's matter ends here" He saw no reaction at all, so he could only continue patiently: "I will give you all the things I promised before, and I'm not afraid to tell you the truth I'll give it to you before you get there. I have been worried that those people did not agree to allocate 10,000 county soldiers to you. These county soldiers are all funded by each family. If you take them to the battlefield, it is equivalent to cutting their flesh. This is not the same as asking for some from them. Money and food are two different things. They don't care about money and food, but they care about these soldiers. " "As long as this matter ends with Liu Feng, I guarantee they won't care.Regarding the 10,000 county soldiers, you can even get more money and food from them. For the Black Flag Army, it has gained a lot and saved a lot of trouble. You should know how to choose to get it. More. " He said in a very low voice: "You should know that when I say this, I mean it sincerely and not for my own consideration. " "I know. " Fang Jie nodded. He smiled at Du Jianzhou: "What the Governor just said makes perfect sense no matter how you listen to it. " Du Jianzhou's face softened, and just as he was about to say something, he heard Fang Jie continue slowly: "But this is not a deal It never has been. The people under my command can die in battle, but they cannot die unjustly. Your Excellency said that you can ask for more money and food, and you don't have to worry about the ten thousand county soldiers. Does this mean that the value of these things is much greater than the lives of those twenty soldiers? " " But in my opinion there is no room for bargaining in this matter. The soldiers under my command are not carrots and cabbages in the vegetable market. I won't care if you ride on your horse and step on my vegetables and pay double the money. Ever since I led troops into Beihui Road, people have been testing me to see how gentle my temper is. Just because of this meaningless thing, my patience has been exhausted. " "Since you have said something candid, my lord, I will also say something candid to you Before Governor Zhong Xin of North Hui Province and Governor Chi Haonian of North Yong Province came to my camp at Zhuque Mountain, I had already decided to lead troops. Went south to kill the enemy. I originally planned to go straight to Yongzhou by water and bypass the North Hui Road, South Hui Road and Yongbei Road. Do you know what this means? Fang Jie looked into Du Jianzhou's eyes and said, "It means that even if I don't have the money, food and supplies you provide, I still have to fight this battle." My soldiers also know this very well, and fighting this battle will not do them any good. After running for thousands of miles, there was no reward from the court, and we were even ostracized by the local government, but why did my soldiers and I still have to fight this battle? " "Because we are all Han Chinese. " Fang Jie said seriously: "Maybe you can't understand, maybe you can't understand. You think I'm lying and pretending, and I don't need to explain anything to you, because this is my choice and it has nothing to do with you. Just when I had made my decision, Zhong Xin and Chi Haonian came to my door and agreed to these terms. Should I refuse? I was very happy at first, thinking that not only the men of my Black Flag Army were bloody, but also the officials and wealthy families in the southwest were all bloody, so they would provide such heavy supplies to support the Black Flag Army's march south to kill the enemy. " "I can only say that I was wrong" Fang Jie said word for word: "I still say what I said. Without your local support, I will still fight this battle. In this case, there are no conditions to talk about. Whoever kills my people, I will dig them out from beginning to end, and not a single one will be left. Moreover you have promised to give me the money, food and supplies. I still have to take away the ten thousand county soldiers If you don't agree, I will just kill a few more people. If a few kills are not enough I will massacre the clan. . " He sat up straight and looked at the people kneeling in the yard and said: "To be honest with you, I have never paid attention to these so-called local wealthy families from the beginning. If you piss me off, I'll kill you. Because I am different from you people, I am not afraid of losing anything, because I once had nothing. " These words hit Du Jianzhou's heart like a sap, making him feel like he was about to vomit blood. More than twenty county soldiers died under the Qilin Bronze Rod, and the remaining people were all scared. Bloodless, everyone was trembling uncontrollably. They never expected that they would face such a thing. When fear spread from their hearts, they could no longer stop it. Liu Di and Yu Wenbo's expressions were the worst. It's ugly. This matter has exceeded their expectations. What they thought was easy to settle has now gone out of control. During the past few days when the captured Black Flag Army soldiers were interrogated, they didn't ask anything at all. Useful news, and now even they seem to have difficulty protecting themselves because of this matter, and the gains outweigh the losses. Liu Di took a step back, and lowered his voice next to Yu Wenbo: "Let's not worry about the 10,000 county soldiers for a while. Oh damn, bad luck! Unexpectedly, he provoked a madman. " Yu Wenbo sighed slightly: "He is really a lunatic. He doesn't act according to common sense at all If you don't care, don't care. They are just 10,000 soldiers. They will be trained later. "The two of them were whispering and didn't notice Fang Jie glance towards them. When Qilin killed forty people, the county soldiers suddenly woke up and blamed everything on Liu Feng, saying only that it was Liu Feng who Feng took them to arrest someone, but they didn't even know who they were being arrested for. They were tortured in prison.?They were just following Liu Feng's orders. In this way, everything was pointed at Liu Feng, but Liu Feng still gritted his teeth and refused to confess, because he knew what he could do to save more people. "Are you all just following orders?" Fang Jie stood up and walked slowly to the front of the county soldiers and asked, and the county soldiers nodded immediately. "Kill them all and take them to the gate of the county soldiers' camp to chop them down." Fang Jie said calmly: "Since you don't know anything about it, it is of no use to me anymore." The Black Flag Army soldiers came up and killed the county soldiers. The soldiers escorted him out, and the scene immediately became chaotic. The county soldiers couldn't stop begging for mercy, shouting for mercy, and became a mess. Fang Jie ignored him at all and knelt down in front of Liu Biao again: "I know what you are thinking at this time. You would rather die than say anything so that you can protect more people. I can't do anything to take away your family." I won't touch them if they come to threaten you. It won't harm my wife and children. I can't let you go because I admire your toughness, so you can go away with peace of mind." Chen Xiaoru then cut Liu Feng's throat. "It seems like we can no longer ask anything at this point." Fang Jie walked back and sat down. Everyone thought that he finally planned to call it a day, and everyone felt relieved. However, Fang Jie's next words frightened them immediately. Had to tremble all over. "I have lost my patience, so I don't plan to torture this tough guy anymore. I decided to be more direct" Fang Jie looked at the local gentry and said slowly: "I will start interrogating you now, one by one. "Bold!" Someone immediately shouted: "What qualifications do you have to punish us!" Fang Jie looked at the person who spoke and said calmly: "Then let's start with you Chen Xiaoru, this Your Majesty is rich and valuable, so be careful with your torture." The person he was pointing at was Liu Di. ¡¡ ¡¡ Jiangbei Province The imperial army fought extremely stalemate with Luo Yao¡¯s Yong Army and Pang Ba¡¯s National Guard Army. Luo Yao¡¯s Yong Army attacked fiercely for many days in a row, forcing Liu Enjing and Xu Xiaogong¡¯s troops to retreat step by step, while Pang Ba Seeing that the momentum was not good, he temporarily withdrew. In this way, the pressure on Yong's army from being attacked on both sides was relieved. Luo Yao ordered the army to attack the court troops with all his strength, and he himself led 30,000 elite troops to look at Pang Ba's troops, which looked like I'm saying, why don't you come back for a decisive battle in such a hurry? The huge army had 300,000 soldiers, but they were forced not to move forward by the 30,000 elite soldiers led by Luo Yao himself. The Yong army, with Luo Xiaotu as the vanguard, fought for three days and forced the imperial army back to the front line of Huohu City. On the night when the imperial army withdrew from Firefox City, one hundred and twenty miles away from them, a man wearing royal robes walked into Pang Ba's camp. Although he was not tall, he looked like a mountain. Falling from the sky. When he walked into the Pangba camp, his face was a little unhappy, a little helpless, a little angry, and very complicated. "My patience is exhausted" He looked at Pang Ba who was called out by him and said seriously: "If there is someone like Zhang Yiyang in your camp, please come out quickly. If not, are you ready to die? ?¡±
