Most of the soldiers gathered outside the camp were watching the fun. **() When the people who announced the imperial edict came over, they were at a loss. Zhao Xingde was slow to wear a white robe, his face was as deep as water, and he slowly urged his horse to walk, and his eyes seemed to be looking for something in the crowd. The soldiers in the Southeast camp unconsciously made way a road, and some even turned their faces and did not dare to touch his eyes. Some whispered, "It's not a fake imperial edict?" Hiding behind the crowd, someone shouted, "What kind of imperial edict is clearly Cao Di wants to annex our Southeast army." "Gong Gong Liu was framed, please let Mr. Liu speak to us!" The people who spoke were hiding behind the people. After these few shouts, the crowd became turbulent again. Some bold soldiers no longer gave way, but rushed towards the team of envoys of the imperial edict.

"Yuanzhi, Yuanzhi," Deng Su whispered, "What should I do?"

However, Zhao Xingde's back was as unmoved as a mountain, and he seemed to have not heard Deng Su's words at all. As Zhao Xingde went deep into the southeast camp, thousands of soldiers gathered around him. If it were a bad thing, it would be a problem whether Deng Su and others could escape unscathed. In the middle of the crowd, a dazzling sword light appeared, and some soldiers had already drawn out their weapons. "Grandma," Li Jing said to the side, "If he dares to move forward again, we will go up together and chop this guy into meat sauce." Several soldiers around him nodded at the same time. Unlike other soldiers, they were climbed out by dead reasoning and were deeply favored by the general Tian Shizhen. Tian Shizhen followed Liu Yanqing and never returned. After hearing too many words, Li Jing was full of things such as "a scholar died for his confidant". He was a rough man, and he could not imagine, and was determined to cause trouble and rescue General Tian, ​​Xianggong Liu and others.

The guards of the Xijing camp behind put their hands on the knife handle, and the mutiny was about to touch. Zhao Xingde kept urging his horse as if nothing had happened, neither speeding up nor stopping until the front was filled with soldiers from the Southeast camp, and several unruly people blocked the way, and the mounts could no longer advance.

"Rareless!" Zhao Xingde's face darkened and he shouted at the soldiers, "Do you want to get Liu Xianggong to be unrighteous?"

Several soldiers were cowardly and could not speak for a while. After a while, someone said, "Grandpa Liu and the generals will never return. We will also ask the court for an explanation!"

"Everyone in the world knows what is going on today! Whether it is fair or not, it is not anyone who can confuse right and wrong with verbal benefits!" Zhao Xingde said sternly, "But, what a crime is it to gather and disturb the envoys of the court? Don't you know? The Liu family has served the court for generations and sacrificed their lives for the country. The loyal and martyrdom of the Liu family, Liu's heroic reputation, will be destroyed in your hands. Are you willing to wait?" He has been commanding the army for a long time. Although he is usually harsh, he has a sense of majesty and shocking.

"What are you?" someone shouted behind the soldiers, "Why should we listen to you?"

"Who am I?" Zhao Xingde smiled instead, and his eyes turned around the crowd. He asked a soldier who had "swear to guard Hejian" on his face, "Have you ever participated in the Battle of Hejian?" The old soldier was originally hostile to Zhao Xingde, but suddenly asked, and nodded hesitantly. Zhao Xingde nodded and said, "In the Battle of Hejian, Tong Guan abandoned the city and fled. Wang Jieshuai joined the wounded soldiers to turn the tide and guard the lonely city alone. What a heroic figure he is." He suddenly mentioned the late Wang Yan, and the old soldier nodded unconsciously, and his expression slowed down on his face. Zhao Xingde looked stern and sighed, "It's a pity that Wang Jieshuai is now martyred by Daming, Liao soldiers rampant invasion south, and elite soldiers in the southeast camp have retreated again and again. Wang Jieshuai has known under the spring, so how should he sigh?"

Wang Yan was extremely grateful for the morale of the army. After a long time, Liu Yanqing replaced the general with his confidant. However, he was very profitable and loved to use military personnel to make profits. He worked as a result of the superiors and the subordinates. The officers withdrew food and salary even more. In comparison, the soldiers below missed Wang Jiedu even more. Listening to Zhao Xingdeti and Wang Yan, all the old soldiers in the camp sighed.

"Since it is the Hejian robes, do you recognize me?" Zhao Xingde asked.

"I'm asking you this." The old soldier stared at Zhao Xingde, no longer had any hostility, but just racked his brains to recall. Most of the soldiers next to him guessed that this master must have a deep connection with the Southeast Camp and the King's Command. Most of the people's original intention of rejecting hostility is now mostly disappeared, and replaced by a strong curiosity. Everyone whispered, but no one knew each other. Zhao Xingde was disappointed. He was not a pretentious person. When he was about to reveal his identity, someone outside suddenly shouted "Zhao Commander!"

Everyone looked at the person who made a sound, and Zhao Xingde also looked over with a strange face.

"Zhao General, Teng Ying is the last general!" Teng Ying looked excited, and he ignored the eyes of others, and pushed everyone away and walked to the front of the horse.

"Teng Du Head," Zhao Xingde thought of it, looked at his military robe and uniform and said with a smile, "You have been promoted!" When he first started the Musket Battalion in Hejian, Teng Ying was his flag-plaque official, and he really made a lot of efforts to help Zhao Xingde give orders. Zhao Xingde had a very deep impression of him. However, after the case was revealed, there was no news about him.

"I am ashamed." Teng Ying said embarrassedly. He has been promoted from the capital to command for more than ten years in the south and north. It is very slow to be promoted. However, according to the officials in the army and the officers above the command, it is extremely difficult to be promoted without a capable backer. Therefore, he is at ease and has some desire to live a life of just living. Today, when he saw his old boss, he felt a little ashamed.

After bowing to Zhao Xingde, Teng Ying turned around and shouted to the surrounding soldiers, "This is a general under Wang Jiedu. Zhao Xingde's ruler is the ruler of the Hejian Musket Camp. Zhao Xingde made an apology for the elders of Hebei, abandoning his future and exposing the treacherous minister and his reputation spread all over the world. Whoever heard of it, would not raise his thumbs up and praise the 'Rightist Soldier!'" He was excited and started to roar. Zhao Xingde didn't expect to meet an old subordinate here. His face was as heavy as water, and he did not stop Teng Ying. He just looked at the soldiers next to him quietly, and his face gradually changed from shock to fear. Seeing the legendary figure in the story, many soldiers even forgot that Zhao Xingde was a hostile Ezhou garrison with excitement and excitement.

"Is it really General Zhao?" Li Jing murmured. He had experienced two major defeats in Hebei. After looking at the left and right, the fierce appearance on the faces of several fierce soldiers had relaxed and turned into a confused look. Everyone in the world knew that Zhao Xingde was a loyal and righteous person. Even if Tian Shizhen ordered them to kill them in person, these people would hesitate, let alone the current situation. If the person who harmed Zhao Xingde was not immediately dismembered by the army, he would definitely be punished by the court's Mingzhengpai, and after his death, he would be scolded and shamed by his relatives. Even Xianggong Liu might be implicated.

"General Zhao defeated the Liao bandits in Fangzhou, killed tens of thousands, and then in Shuzhou, Jiangzhou, and the Liao people were frightened when they heard about it." Teng Ying loudly finished telling the story of Zhao Xingde, who had heard of it, and he couldn't help but speak. Just when he didn't know how to continue, Zhao Xingde turned to Deng Su and said, "Brother Deng, Liu Xianggong and all the generals are still in the Central Army's discussion. You might as well declare the emperor's edict to the arrangements of Liu Xianggong and the Southeast Camp to calm the hearts of the soldiers."

Deng Su realized that the troops were already intimidated, and secretly praised them in his heart. He took out the imperial edict from his arms and read loudly in front of the troops: "In accordance with the heavens, the emperor ordered that Liu Yanqing was called a good general, but his age was high and weak, and even with the defeat of Xiangyang, he should not take charge of the southeastern army. He was specially moved to the general of the Zuo Xiaowei, and was promoted to the Prince Taibao, the eldest son Liu Guangguo and the guards and the guards and the guards and the guards and the second son Liu Guangshi and the guards and infantry commander Zhao Xingde, the commander of the Baoyi Army, was loyal and righteous, diligent in state affairs, repeatedly defeated the northern country, succeeded to the southeastern army, and controlled the generals to guard Ezhou. Qin this——”

After reading, Deng Su looked at Zhao Xingde. It was inconvenient for the army to kneel down and accept the orders. He did not force it. But according to common sense, Zhao Xingde should answer: "My minister, follow the order." Even if he accepted the position of commander deployed by the Southeast Camp, Zhao Xingde did not accept the order as Deng Su expected. Instead, Zhao Xingde avoided his gaze and faced the army. At this time, there were thousands of soldiers gathered around him, and many people were very nervous. Countless eyes fell on Zhao Xingde. He saw that his face was stern, and there was no pride in his eyes that had the authority of the army. Instead, he seemed to have a lot of complex moods. There had been two commanders in the Southeast Camp. I wonder what the new ones would be deployed?

"Do you have a wife and children in your family?"

After a moment of silence, Zhao Xingde suddenly asked.

The soldiers looked at each other, thinking that the new officers had been deployed again, but now they don’t know how to answer. A few people answered “yes” without thinking, and some people nodded hesitantly. Most of the imperial guards have been in the army for generations, and seven out of ten people in the camp have brought their families with their families. When the army goes to war, most of them miss their wives and children at home, but the generals don’t often ask about these things.

Zhao Xingde nodded and continued to ask: "Do you have brothers and sisters?"

The soldiers below were even more confused, and Deng Su was also confused. He knew that Zhao Xingde advocated the way of learning "with virtue to match the heaven with virtue". He thought that when he first took the general seal, he would inspire the soldiers in the camp to be loyal and righteous. At this time, more people plucked up their courage and answered: "Yes!" "General Bing, there are." Teng Ying said: "The last general has three brothers and four sisters in his family, all of whom are married." After answering these two questions, although the soldiers in the camp were curious, their expressions on their faces were relieved a lot.

Zhao Xingde slowly looked at the army and shouted, "Do you have parents?" The army was stunned, and he shouted loudly again, "If you have parents, raise your right hand!" As soon as this statement fell, Qi Huahua immediately raised his right hand. Zhongyuan claimed to rule the world with filial piety, be filial sons at home, and be loyal ministers in Yuguo. Who has no parents? Facing the arms like a forest, Deng Su hesitated, and the guards of Xijing beside him were hesitant, not knowing whether to raise his right hand. If he didn't raise his hand, wouldn't he become a bastard without a father or mother?

Zhao Xingde also raised his right hand and looked back at Deng Su. Deng Su had no choice but to raise his right hand, and hundreds of guards from Xijing camp also raised their right hand.

Everyone was full of doubts, not knowing what Zhao Xingde intended. At this time, someone in the crowd suddenly said as if mocking: "The villain's parents have long died." Another sarcastic remarks: "The villain was born without a father or a mother, and he grew up in the Liu Xianggong's mansion." The soldiers all looked for it, and many people knew the two people, one named Liu Fu and the other named Liu Qi, who were both generals of the Liu Mansion and usually walked sideways in the camp. They were obviously dissatisfied with Liu Yanqing's seizure of military power, and wanted to make Zhao Xingde look ugly. Deng Su frowned slightly and his face darkened. He could not have imagined that there was such an ignorant person among Liu Yanqing's confidants.

"Then do you have ancestors?" Zhao Xingde asked coldly, his expression even more harsh.

The two of them were speechless and blushed. They could not say that they had no ancestors. The military patrol beside them couldn't help but sneer, and Teng Ying said in a secret: "These two are used to being in the camp. As long as the general gives an order, they will be killed on the spot to establish military law!" He put his hand on the hilt of the knife. Zhao Xingde noticed Teng Ying's eyes and shook his head.

"Where are your parents, wives and children, and ancestors' tombs?"
