Chapter 459 [The Governor's Wife's Conspiracy]
Chapter 459 [The Governor’s Wife’s Scheme]
In Xia Ya's military camp, his words "Have you won" that day had already spread.
All the soldiers were extremely respectful to the generals like Xia Ya.
In the army, a commander like Xia Ya was originally a hero in the hearts of soldiers. What's more, who soldiers don't like this "protecting shortcomings"?
After that, the army went out every day, and the cavalry all held their heads and chests, their spirits were so strong that they felt ache in their eyes from afar. Xia Ya's casual handling that day was very much in line with the appetite of the soldiers in the army. She was not afraid of fighting, but if she lost, she would be a coward!
The garrisons on both sides are not far apart. The cavalry here in Charia will even deliberately travel to the near the base of the Besta army. Occasionally, they will encounter the troops of the Besta army, but the other party will avoid them from afar, as if they dare not contact the army here in Charia again.
After waiting in the army for two days, the order issued by the military headquarters to officially pass and depart.
At this time, Besta sent an envoy from the army to ask for Shaya, saying that he had followed the order of the governor's wife to ask General Shaya whether the two sides were traveling together as they did when they came.
Xia Ya felt a little unhappy when she heard this.
Because this time, the troops sent to the south to serve the king, the agreement reached between the two sides before departure, all the food and money spent on the troops this time were all provided by the Besta side. On the way, the food and grass were consumed along the way. After arriving at the imperial capital, at the beginning, before the division of troops, the governor of the Besta people also followed the rules and left some food and grass for Xia Ya when they divided the troops.
But after staying in Osgilia for many days, the food and grass left by the Besta people was also consumed.
If I was going to go north, then according to the original agreement, the food and grass consumption along the way should be provided by the Bestas. But now the governor's wife pretended to send someone to ask... It was obvious that she was tempted, and she seemed to not want to give out food and grass again.
Where is such a cheap thing?
There are thousands of people here in Xiaya, people need to eat and horses need to chew. They go north and return to their own jurisdiction, and travel thousands of miles away. Even if they march all the way, they are afraid that they will not be able to do it within ten days and half a month. Do the Besta people want to pay for the food consumption along the way?
Xia Ya saw the envoy and listened to the other party's words, she said lightly: "The two soldiers had some minor frictions. I'm afraid it's a bit inconvenient to go on the road together, so I'd better go my own way."
After hearing this, the envoy immediately said, "This is what our governor's wife means. Since that's the case, the governor's wife also asked me to send a sentence to the general, wishing the general a smooth journey. I'm afraid that when will we meet again, I don't know when we wish the general a good fortune..."
After the messenger finished speaking, he did not mention any food and grass, and said goodbye.
Xia Ya was annoyed, but she didn't mention food and grass. She just watched the messenger leave coldly before sneering.
There was no one in the tent, and Xia Ya's face gradually became solemn. She took a deep breath and thought about the attitude of the wife of the governor of Besta's...
At this time, Dora's voice came from his mind: "What are you worried about? Is that woman's attitude changing?"
Xia Ya nodded after hearing this: "This woman's attitude has changed a bit strange. I agreed to show the big men of the imperial capital. I didn't take it seriously when the soldiers on both sides had a friction a few days ago. But now this woman's attitude suddenly became cold. I was worried that she would break the bridge across the river."
Dora smiled and said, "That's why you are too simple. There are no eternal friends in this kind of *** matter. For the sake of interests, your position can change at any time. Besides, when you used each other and she asked for you, she naturally flattered you. Now..."
Xia Ya shook her head: "This is what I don't understand. Logically speaking, it will be of no benefit to them if they really turn against me now."
After pausing, he smiled and said, "I am not worried about the food and supplies I seized from the rebels. It's enough. But this woman broke the bridge across the river and changed her face so quickly, but she used it, which made me unhappy."
Dora was silent for a while and said, "When she took the initiative to ask you to spread the words in the imperial capital to be on guard against the Besta people, I was a little wary at that time. This woman was too thoughtful and she made such a request. Although it seemed reasonable, I always felt that she did not tell you the truth. I was afraid that you were also used by her, but I couldn't guess what you did."
Xia Ya thought for a while, and since she couldn't think of it, she smiled freely: "No matter how much she is, if she wants to change, let her change! Am I still afraid that she will not be able to do it? Humph, even if she changes her mind, she will never dare to turn against me openly. Otherwise, if I go north, I will call her thousands of cavalry and will not be able to return in pieces of armor!"
Xia Ya was confident in saying this.
If the two families really turn against each other, don’t look like the Bestas have 7,000 cavalry, and the Shaya only has 3,000 cavalry. But if they really fight, Shaya is definitely confident that his 3,000 cavalry can kill all of the Bestas’ 7,000 cavalry in less than an hour!
The strength of the Rodria cavalry is not bragging about! What's more, Xia Ya has the powerful five hundred "strong cavalry" around her!
Before leaving, something happened.
Xia Ya's entire army was preparing to set off, and suddenly someone came to inform Xia Ya, and several people dressed in the Besta army officers came to ask for their visit.
Xia Ya was confused and asked someone to bring in. The one who brought in to see Xia Ya was indeed several officers in the Besta army. As soon as they saw Xia Ya, several officers knelt on the ground. The leader cried loudly: "General Xia Ya help me! Our General asked us to come and see General Xia Ya! Now you are the only one who can save him! If you don't reach out, our general will be afraid..."
Xia Ya was confused when she heard it.
But these people in front of me recognize it.
These people were indeed the men in Besta's army, but they were not the subordinates of the governor's wife, but the nephew of the governor, the only legal heir in the Governor's family, and General Lear's confidant.
When Xia Ya saw the person kneeling in front of him and crying and begging, she immediately moved!
Could it be that the governor's wife took the initiative to clean up the portal?
But this idea was immediately rejected by Xia Ya himself. After all, Lear was nominally the nephew of the boss and the legal heir of the family. There were quite a few old ministers in the Besta army who secretly supported him. Even if that woman really wanted to get rid of Lear, she would never dare to act openly, otherwise she would have caused public anger.
"What the hell is going on?"
Xia Ya's face was solemn: "Don't cry! Get up and talk!"
The following officers stood up, and the leader said with anxiety: "General Xia Ya! The imperial capital has been sent an order, and we General Lear have been detained in the imperial capital!"
Shaya: "…"
Only after these officers finished speaking did Xia Ya understand what happened.
Li Er was indeed "detained" in the imperial capital, but not because he was arrested, but because he was forced to stay in the imperial capital by the royal family.
The official statement is that His Majesty the Emperor appreciated Li Er's youthful and talented person, and kept Li Er by his side to listen to him. He was granted the title of a palace warrior and also added the false position of a deputy general of the Imperial Guard. In fact, he was placed under house arrest in the imperial capital!
And this incident happened is also funny.
They were actually all the big bosses and powerful people in the imperial capital, and they expressed a meaning to the emperor together: the Besta people were newly surrendered and could not be fully trusted. They should not only use them, but also have a means of checks and balances.
Detaining Lear is the means to "check and balance" the Besta Military Region that the bigwigs in the imperial capital have come up with!
Lear is the first heir to the Governor of the Besta Military Region and the only male member of the family blood. Moreover, during the days when the Governor's wife entered the imperial capital, whether she met with all the big men or the emperor, she always brought Lear with her side.
On the surface, the two seemed intimate and harmonious, and even played several scenes of nephews and aunts being together. However, outsiders did not know that the pair of nephews and aunts in the Besta Military Region had already reached the point where water and fire were incompatible.
In the end, His Majesty Garcia adopted the opinions of the imperial capital's tycoons and wanted to balance the Bestas, so let's leave "hostages" according to management.
In their opinion, Lear was the heir of the Besta Military Region. Such a person who stayed in the imperial capital was sufficient for the quality and weight. For the safety of their heirs, the Besta would never dare to act rashly in the future. He would definitely be loyal to the royal family and serve the royal family in peace and peace.
As a result, the emperor expressed his meaning in a meeting, but the governor's wife agreed readily and took the initiative to say that it was his honor to be appreciated by the emperor, and Besta was willing to let General Lear stay with the emperor of the imperial capital to serve...
As a result, poor Lear was left in the imperial capital by that woman. When the governor's wife returned to the camp, she was under house arrest in a house near the imperial palace.
"When our general entered the city with that woman, the woman ordered the general to throw us all into the military camp outside the city, and he was not allowed to take his entourage. The general had no choice but to go to the city with that woman! There was no one around the general, and he was threatened by the woman alone. In helplessness, he could only be controlled by the other party and accompanied the woman to act. The people in the imperial capital did not realize that the general was actually not the same as that woman!"
"General Xia Ya! Our general has been under house arrest in the imperial capital, but he has finally figured out a way to find someone to send out the news! He has been under house arrest near the palace! He is not allowed to see people at will. That woman is killing people with a knife and wants to kill our general in the imperial capital!"
"General Xia Ya, our general admires you the most in his daily life. He often says that a hero like you is what he admires the most in his heart. Our general was also very respectful to you along the way. At this time, only you can save our general..."
Xia Ya immediately felt a little excited when she heard the crying and begging of the people in front of her!
Damn! I was indeed fooled by that woman!
When that woman asked me to deliberately spread the remarks that "Besta should not be trusted" in the imperial capital, I was afraid that with this idea, I wanted to kill someone with a knife!
It is deliberately made the royal family and the imperial capital have the idea of distrust the Besta people, so next... according to management, it is also a historical practice for foreign generals to leave hostages!
That woman had planned it long ago!
Although Xia Ya was a little shocked and angry, she had to admit that this woman was indeed a good method!
Hum...Don't you don't trust me? That's so good. I've left the family's "only heir" as a hostage, and finally I can express our loyalty, right?
The ridiculous royal family thought they had seized the Besta people, but they didn't know that the woman had eliminated the biggest disaster!
But Xia Ya herself was also used by that woman in this matter and became an accomplice!
After all, it was Xia Ya who first spread the saying "Besta should not be trusted"!
It is predictable that in the future, Lear will be detained as a hostage in the imperial capital. The governor's wife is afraid that after returning to the Besta Military Region, she will be able to free up her hands and clean up the inside!
Although there are some forces within Besta that are dependent on Lear, the Lear people are in the imperial capital, so the little forces under their subordinates are naturally without leaders. How can they be the opponent of the smart and smart Governor's wife?
I'm afraid that I'll be cleaned up after a few strokes!
After the internal cleaning is completed, even if Li Er is still alive, he has no soldiers or generals and no one available, so he will no longer have any threats to the governor's wife!
And even... it wouldn't be difficult if the governor's wife wanted Lear to die!
As long as she deliberately angered the imperial royal family and deliberately acted like she was ready to move, making the royal family dissatisfied with her, she was afraid that when the royal family was angry, they might use Lear's life to threaten the Besta people.
But...will the governor's wife be afraid that the royal family will threaten Lear's life?
It's just right! You want to kill? Just kill it!
If Li Er was really killed by the royal family, the governor's wife would applaud her! In this way, Li Er's death will not fall into her!
The most important thing is that the initiative is in the hands of that woman!
If she really wants to kill Lear, she just needs to be a good measure!
First, she deliberately did something that angered the royal family, forcing the royal family to attack Lear, and then took the initiative to think that the royal family would sue him - she was very smart and knew that the royal family would definitely accept it with a pinch of his nose! Because the royal family now has no power to wipe out the Besta Military Region!
The initiative was taken away by this woman!
Think deeper...
Even if Li Er's men came to him for help, I'm afraid that the woman deliberately let them out!
Otherwise, with that woman's shrewdness, how could these men of Lear have the ability to run out of that woman's nose in the Besta army?
That woman is testing herself! Testing her attitude!
It is also a test of whether I will interfere in their internal affairs of the Besta Military Region!
If you intervene yourself, then you are afraid that you will really not be able to cooperate in the future! If you don’t intervene…
As soon as Xia Ya thought of this, a subordinate guard outside the door reported loudly.
"General! People from Besta came, saying that they were ordered by their governor's wife to send twenty trucks of food and grass for the way back. In addition, the visitors also said that there were several deserters in their army, and some people saw them running towards us. The other party said that they asked the general to help capture the deserters!"
Xia Ya's heart immediately moved!
It's coming so fast! This is forcing myself to express my opinion!
Chapter completed!
