Yan Donglou's cheek was pierced by the arrow, revealing two terrifying blood holes.

He was stunned for a few moments, and then he held his face and howled miserably. His voice was extremely sad, and it was a little funny because of the ventilation. In an instant, he suppressed the commotion of others, and only his howl could be heard.

The cry echoed in the wind.

The disciples of the Yan family next to him supported him and hurriedly tried to bandage his wounds. However, these scholars, who were accustomed to writing and writing, had never seen such a scene. They were panic-stricken and confused. Throughout the dynasties, it was said that scholars encountered soldiers.

It is a common saying, but scholars with great reputations have always been treated very well, because they are the reserve force of a country's officials.

Among the hundreds of scholars who led the Linqing villagers to besiege the imperial guards today, none of them passed the examination, and there were not even many candidates. Most of them were scholars. But they were all young, and the oldest was no more than two years old.

At the age of fifteen, no one may be named on the gold medal list in the future.

He was famous and young, at the age where passion easily surges, so the arrow only frightened the ordinary people around him, but it could not scare these scholars who were full of loyalty and righteousness.

Therefore, when Pei Yue led 400 cavalry to easily scare away the surrounding people and walked out onto a wide road, what stood in front of him were dozens of men in green shirts. These young faces were filled with a look of fearlessness and fearlessness of death.

, there is even a bit of heroism of "die by doing one's best". No matter when and where, this situation is very difficult. If you are too weak, you will not be able to get off the stage. If you are too tough, you may intensify conflicts and make things difficult to deal with.

the point.

Pei Yue reined in the reins and looked at the scholars condescendingly and indifferently.

There were fourteen soldiers guarding him. The four hundred cavalry were indifferent and silent, naturally exuding murderous aura in silence.

Since leaving Kyoto, Pei Yue has not deliberately used any means to win over these five hundred people. He has only strictly implemented a few guidelines in accordance with Mr. Xi's suggestions before departure and his own understanding of the art of war. For example, he never deducted the pay of these elite soldiers.

, they are paid in full every month. Although their previous treatment in Nanying was not bad, they have never received 10% of their salary.

Drinking the blood of soldiers has been an inevitable phenomenon in the army since ancient times. It is rare for generals to be able to pay 70% of their salary, let alone the full amount. In Pei Yue's memory, there were only a few soldiers in ancient times who left their names in history.

Only the military can do this

Point. In fact, it is not that the famous generals in history did not understand this truth, but it is very difficult for senior military generals to be equal. What's more, if the coach himself does not have the ability to make money, he must also rely on drinking the blood of his soldiers to support those around him.

.

But for Pei Yue, with the Xiangyun Company as a cash cow, he obviously does not need to rely on the sergeant's salary to make a living.

In addition, when operating in the field, he ate and lived with the soldiers, showed better martial arts abilities than them, and was the first to go and the last to retreat when there was danger. These strategies were taught by Mr.

Pei Yue has long been extremely proficient in film and television dramas.

However, Pei Yue knew very well that the five hundred people around him were not at all proof of his ability to lead troops.

The reason is very simple. These people were brought out by Gu Liang himself, and they were a team specially prepared for him. Even if he does not perform so well, there is no problem with the loyalty and ability of these 500 people. As for those who were stuffed in

The fifty noble sons have long been divided into five teams. After more than half a year of training and brainwashing, they are no different from other ordinary soldiers.

In Yongzhou and Yunzhou, he promoted the briquettes smoothly, so the elite soldiers around him did not face a very difficult test.

At this moment, facing the dozens of soldiers standing in front of him, Pei Yue's face dropped like water.

His mount was the precious colt sent by Peicheng. Now it was tall, majestic and spiritual. As if sensing the murderous intention in its owner's heart, the horse gradually became restless and snorted constantly.

"But Pei Qinchao in person?"

Yan Donglou could no longer speak, so another man among the scholars stood up. Although his face remained normal when facing Pei Yue, the twinkling eyes betrayed his true thoughts.

Pei Yue was too lazy to pay attention to him and said in a stern voice: "The imperial envoy is doing something, but you gather a crowd to besiege me. Could it be that you want to rebel?"

Hundreds of riders behind him shouted at the same time: "Do you want to rebel?!"

After all, this kind of momentum cannot be competed by dozens of scholars buried in old papers. Human psychology is so wonderful. If Pei Yue chooses to reason with them, regardless of whether he can defeat these scholars who are interested in verbal disputes,

Invisibly, it will also increase their arrogance.

However, now that hundreds of people were shouting loudly at the same time, they were directly ignored and charged with a crime.

"Pei Qin Envoy, we are all famous students, how can we be involved in something like rebellion?" The leading scholar looked panicked, and even his voice trembled, as did the thin scholars behind him.

Where to go.

Shang Yu was surrounded by two to three thousand people before. Although he did not show weakness or show any cowardice, his blind silence and restraint of his subordinates made the leading nearly a hundred soldiers more arrogant. That's why Yan Donglou was born.

Cursing behavior.

However, Pei Yue obviously would not give them this treatment.

"Disperse immediately within five breaths."

Pei Yue looked past these people and looked at Shang Yu who looked ashamed.

The leader was afraid, but he did not dare to give way because Yan Donglou was unable to speak at this moment. If he could not complete the task assigned by the head of the family, he was afraid that his end would be very miserable. Thinking of this, he could only

Bracing his scalp, he raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the students dare not stop you, but these people behind you have been spying on the local area for several days and harming innocent people. They have to give us Linqing people an explanation, right?"

"Explain?"

Pei Yue looked back at him condescendingly, then twitched the corners of his mouth slightly and said in a cold voice: "Catch them all!"

Deng Zai's complexion changed slightly and his lips moved, but in the end he did not speak to dissuade him.

The hundreds of cavalrymen who had followed Pei Yue had long been unhappy. At this moment, they could not hesitate after hearing the order. The first team of sergeants immediately dismounted to arrest people, not even letting go of Yan Donglou, who had finally managed to wrap his wound with a strip of cloth to stop the bleeding.

After that, all the soldiers surrounding Pei Yue were captured.

Pei Yue looked coldly at the more than 2,000 Linqing villagers nearby who were trying to flee, and said flatly: "No one is allowed to let go. We will keep them under guard and await punishment."

"yes!"

Everyone took the order, and immediately there were knights from the second and fourth teams on horseback, waving their weapons and gathering all the people together like driving cattle and sheep.

Pei Yue watched quietly until Shang Yu, the sentry officer of the third team, came to him with a shameful face, knelt down on one knee and said: "I am humble and unfavorable, please punish me!"
