The people from the Sui Army's law enforcement team began to investigate after Li Xiaozong's death. All those who had had close contact with Li Xiaozong in the past three years were detained, including his 100 personal soldiers. These people were locked in separate tents, and were guarded by Wanyan Chongde's Han cavalry, and were not allowed to speak to each other in case of collusion.

Mou Liangbi, who was sitting in the position of coach, was still a little uncomfortable with this new role. He played the role of an assistant from beginning to end, and what he considered was how to make up for the coach's incomplete thinking. He was mostly responsible for logistics supplies on a daily basis. He was also a little panicked when he suddenly sat in the position of in charge of military affairs.

He and Yang Kai, the king of Xu, have very similar personalities, and both of them are a little indecisive. But Xu, after all, is a military military background, knows everything about military affairs, and can convince the public. In terms of strategy, his vision is far more far than that of Liangbi.

When he was promoted to the tent, Fang Jie refused the invitation from Mou Liangbi to let him sit beside him, but sat behind the generals.

"What do you think should you deal with those confidants of Li Xiaozong?"

Mou Liangbi pondered for a while and planned to solve the things in front of him first. In fact, as the commander of the head, he had no need to ask about such things. As the leader of this army, his every word and action was an order. So the generals sitting below were surprised, and looked at each other with a little surprised.

When Mou Liangbi assisted Prince Xu, he showed caution and caution. But now that the role has changed, he still doesn't know how to issue orders.

"But it depends on your decision!"

The generals answered, and Mou Liangbi suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

He subconsciously glanced at Cui Zhongzhen, and Cui Zhongzhen nodded slightly to him and signaled that you would make the decision.

“According to the truth…”

After sorting out the words, Mou Liangbi said, "These people should have been dealt with according to military law. After all, they were very close to Li Xiaozong, so it is still unknown whether they had collusion with the rebels, but that was more than a hundred lives..."

"Ahem"

Cui Zhongzhen coughed a few times and quickly winked at Mou Liangbi. Mou Liangbi was stunned for a moment, not knowing what was wrong with saying this. In his opinion, although those personal soldiers were Li Xiaozong's confidants, they were also from the Great Sui army after all, and only dozens of people came with Li Xiaozong. Others may not have participated in the conspiracy of Li Xiaozong.

"Sir, kindness is a blessing for us."

Cui Zhongzhen looked at Fang Jie. Seeing that the generals looked a little ugly, Fang Jie stood up and said, "Before the tent promotion today, Lord Mou had talked to me. Although these people had fought side by side with you, they had bleeding and sweat. To kill them, Lord Mou was really unbearable. I admire such kindness very much. But Lord Mou also said that these people... are understandable but unforgivable."

"The lord has given them a good idea before, so that they can be happy and not be humiliated."

Cui Zhongzhen quickly stood up and said.

The generals bowed their heads and said nothing. Everyone could see that Cui Zhongzhen and Fang Jie were just finding a way to plan Liangbi. They were kind-hearted... How could they lead troops? Some of these people must be innocent, between killing and not killing. Not killing is reasonable. Killing is within the military law. But this is the army, this is the battlefield. If such a person does not kill, who knows whether he will sell his team tomorrow?

How can such a woman lead the army?

"Well……"

Mou Liangbi also noticed the strangeness on the faces of the generals and quickly changed his words: "Yes... I just think many of them did not follow Li Xiaozong from the beginning, but they were also implicated by him."

As soon as this sentence was spoken, Cui Zhongzhen's face became even more ugly.

Where is there any wrongful accusation or not?

"Come"

He shouted to the outside, and immediately a soldier came in: "What are the instructions of the general?"

Cui Zhongzhen said: "My Lord ordered that all Li Xiaozong's confidants colluded with the rebels and had ill-intentioned plans. Now that Li Xiaozong has been executed, the remaining criminals must be dealt with according to the military law. Take all those people to the middle of the camp, and let the soldiers see the consequences of these people who are scattered!"

"Here"

The soldier responded and turned around and went out.

Mou Liangbi sighed and didn't say anything for a long time after sitting back. The generals below all looked at him and waited for the following. Cui Zhongzhen, who was sitting on Mou Liangbi's side, pulled his sleeves and whispered: "It's time to discuss the matter of withdrawing troops and returning to the village."

Mou Liangbi nodded, took a deep breath and stood up: "Before this, I still have something to say clearly."

He got off the position of commander, walked to the middle of the tent and slowly glanced at everyone: "You all know that I am a civil servant, and I am not familiar with military affairs, and my personality is really not suitable for making decisions. I am moved by your heart. This is your trust in me. But for the sake of this team and for the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, I think... I should still give up this position."

"I am willing to continue to control the logistics and fulfill my responsibilities as a staff member. I still think that the most suitable person to lead this team is General Fang."

"grown ups"

Fang Jie hugged and said, "You are just not adapting yet, so don't belittle yourself. It seems that adults should calm down."

Cui Zhongzhen also said: "The main general has been decided, and the candidates will be replaced, and the morale of the army will be unstable."

Mou Liangbi was stunned and shook his head: "I didn't sleep all night last night. I kept wondering if I had the ability to lead the team well. But no matter how I thought about it, I felt that I was not suitable to be the head coach. As the coach, I made a quick decision. I know this, but it is difficult to change the things in my personality."

"It's better to do this..."

Cui Zhongzhen was silent for a while and said, "It is unchangeable to regard the respect of the adults now. In terms of qualifications, prestige and official positions, the adults deserve it. The soldiers of the three armies are naturally willing to obey the adults' instructions. If there is anything difficult for the adults to decide on military affairs, they will come forward to everyone to discuss and follow the decision after the discussion."

Fang Jie sighed in his heart, knowing that Cui Zhongzhen had no choice.

The coach was undecided, but he took out the generals to discuss... Where is the prestige?

...

...

More than one hundred heads were cut down, and many of the onlookers applauded. Li Xiaozong had two things that the soldiers could not forgive. First, he killed Prince Xu and seized military power, and he also pretended to shout the slogan of avenging Prince Xu. Second, he was a spy sent by Li Yuanshan, and he didn't know when tens of thousands of people would be destroyed in his hands.

As for the innocent or not of those who accompanied Li Xiaozong to die, it is no longer important. If Li Xiaozong changed his position and finally won, he would never hesitate about such a question. If Luo Yao was replaced, he would not even leave the trial of interrogation, and would kill everyone just by killing them.

Fang Jie's Shanziying and Yangziying had already been opened and merged into the Sui army.

In Fang Jie's military tent, Cui Zhongzhen couldn't help but sigh.

"When Lord Mou stood behind the prince, he didn't feel anything. He was a good official and a qualified marching general, but he really lacked decisiveness. Although you and I have made up for him for a while, the people below were not fools, and their confidence in Lord Mou immediately fell to the bottom. They were all experienced and knew what it means to lead an unqualified commander. If they all lost confidence, no matter how elite soldiers were, they would have no combat power."

Fang Jie smiled and said, "It's not as serious as you said. Just give Lord Mou a period of time to adapt. A person's temperament cannot be changed, but his habits can be changed."

"What I'm worried about now is..."

Cui Zhongzhen said: "Once you go to the battlefield and face thousands of troops, can Lord Mou make the right judgment!"

"It is not advisable to move troops in severe winter"

Wanyan Chongde said: "My people are better, but the Sui people are not. The team will set off tomorrow and return to the parcel. We have a winter time to rest, and there will be a solution at that time."

Cui Zhongzhen shook his head: "The main general cannot intimidate the generals below, which is a taboo in the army. The longer the days are, the more unfavorable they are."

"Juexiao"

He looked at Fang Jie and said, "No matter what, you must fight for the matter of closure. I know that although this is unfair to your troops, as long as you lead people to take good care of the army's rear, the soldiers will definitely be more respectful to you. Master Ming is not suitable to be the leader, and no one else is convinced by anyone else, and you are the only one who is the most suitable. Now the only thing you lack is prestige, so you must fight a few beautiful battles as soon as possible."

Chen Duanshan and Lu Fenghou looked at each other, then nodded at the same time: "General Cui is right. If we cut off the rear, the rebels may not dare to kill us. Even if we kill us, those mobs have nothing to be afraid of. Since we have already arrived, we must gain a foothold and not let others look down on us."

Fang Jie sat down and took a sip of tea: "What I think now is... what arrangements did Li Xiaozong make before his death?"

When everyone heard him suddenly change the topic, they were puzzled.

"He wants to kill you to eliminate hidden dangers."

Fang Jie glanced at Cui Zhongzhen: "What about after killing you?"

Wanyan Chongde said: "Of course, it is a fight against Lord Mou. As long as Lord Mou dies, no one in the army can threaten him."

“It’s right.”

Fang Jie nodded: "He dared not to blatantly kill Master Min, so there must be some arrangements. If you were Li Xiaozong, what would he make?"

Everyone fell into silence, and they could not imagine that if they killed Cui Zhongzhen, Li Xiaozong could commit suicide by fear of crime, but killed Mei Liangbi, he would never dare to be so hasty. If he wanted to completely control this army, he would definitely have some complete arrangements.

"From the perspective of humble profession, the best way is..."

Sun Kaidao tightened his clothes, still feeling that the weather was a little cold and could not bear it: "Borrow a knife and kill people."

This literati who looked a little thin never spoke. He was a little dissatisfied with Fang Jie not taking over the Sui army directly, so he seemed a little silent. In his opinion, Fang Jie's concerns could be completely avoided. Fang Jie had the identity of an imperial envoy, and no one was more noble than him. Taking over was natural. If someone was not convinced, then he would deal with it according to the military law. Unless these people did not admit that they were from the Sui Dynasty, they could completely subdue them.

If someone is dissatisfied, kill one to warn a hundred.

Hearing Fang Jie mentioning Li Xiaozong's arrangements, he couldn't help but speak.

This sentence of killing people with a knife immediately changed the faces of everyone present.

...

...

Fang Jie walked to the door of the tent, looked at the wind-rolled sand outside and murmured: "Borrow a knife and kill someone... Where is the knife?"
