From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 264

Hundreds of cavalrymen confronted tens of thousands of Five Army Camps. It sounds like there is a huge disparity in strength, but the actual situation is the opposite.

Zhou Yuan is only an earl after all, and he cannot be compared with an old marquis like Qiu Huan, not to mention that the other party is his immediate superior.

In addition, the Five Army Camps do not have a very good identity. If they really fight hard, there will be pressure from all sides.

"The Five Army Camps conspired with King Jing to rebel. Your Majesty did not kill them, which is a grace from heaven. You, Zhou Yuan, pleaded for them and became the Grand Commander of the Five Army Camps. You must be responsible, right?"

Qiu Huan narrowed his eyes and said, "Yuan Zhi took back the food, which was strictly in accordance with the will of Your Majesty, and the Five Army Camps starved because of this, which was a dereliction of duty by you as the Commander."

"You got angry because of this and killed the guards of the Shenji Camp, which is a crime."

"Zhou Yuan, do you choose to give in now, or ask Your Majesty to judge in the court the day after tomorrow?"

To be honest, the court is the opponent's main battlefield. There are too many Zhejiang Party members, and the eldest sister may not be able to take the trick.

The other party will definitely hold on to the killing and attribute the emptying of the granary to the imperial edict. Even if the handling is somewhat radical, it is not a big mistake.

But killing friendly forces is enough to make Zhou Yuan drink a pot.

So Zhou Yuan said lightly: "Submission? What does Lord Qiu think is submission?"

Qiu Huan smiled and said: "You are in the emperor's heart, and you are a newly promoted earl. Naturally, I can't not give you face. Since you killed people, you can also find ten people from the Fifth Army Camp and let Yuan Zhi kill them."

This is completely illogical. It is obvious that he wants to suppress you. If Zhou Yuan really does this, he will basically say goodbye to the Fifth Army Camp.

What's more, exchanging one for ten, doesn't this directly prove that the Fifth Army Camp is a waste?

"Okay!"

Zhou Yuan suddenly laughed and nodded: "No problem, you can kill a hundred."

Now Qiu Huan and Yuan Zhi are confused.

Would Zhou Yuan jump into such a trap? He is not such a stupid person!

Qiu Huan frowned, always feeling that something was wrong, so he said in a deep voice: "Okay! Go and pick! Pick ten!"

Countless soldiers in the Fifth Army Camp had blank expressions on their faces. They regarded Zhou Yuan as their lifesaver, but at this moment they were disappointed and could not feel hatred, so they could only be blank.

Zhou Yuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, you have to give me time to pick someone, right?"

So they waited like this, and after waiting for an hour, Zhou Yuan did not make any move.

Qiu Huan was impatient and said coldly: "Are you going to pick or not?"

Zhou Yuan said: "You can pick, but what if I pick someone and Lord Yuan doesn't dare to kill him?"

Qiu Huan snorted heavily: "As a soldier, if you don't dare to avenge your subordinates, you don't deserve justice!"

"Okay!"

Zhou Yuan smiled and said: "I'm waiting for you to say this."

He looked at the gate outside the parade ground, pointed over there, and said: "My soldiers are here! I'll pick him!"

"Zhou Yuan, damn it, I'm here!"

Song Wu rode his horse and galloped over, cursing: "Today I must show you who is the boss. I will give you ten times the slap that day!"

Qiu Huan's face suddenly became dull, and his eyes widened for a while.

Zhou Yuan looked at Song Wu and said calmly: "I didn't expect you to be such a brave man. Now we have the first mission. I wonder if you can hold on to it."

Song Wu glared and said: "How can I be afraid of you? Just tell me!"

Zhou Yuan pointed at Yuan Zhi and said with a smile: "This lord said he wants to kill my soldiers, so let's start with you. Go forward and let him kill them."

Qiu Huan's face changed and he shouted: "Zhou Yuan, you are shameless!"

Song Wu was also desperate. He got off his horse and walked in front of Yuan Zhi, saying: "It's him! He dares to touch me?"

Yuan Zhi drew his knife and said word by word: "Killing the guards of my Shenji Camp, I, as a governor, am not so brave. Even if I am punished, I will help my brothers get justice."

He also tried to win back some people's hearts.

But Qiu Huan shouted: "Yuan Zhi, are you fucking crazy? Put away the knife!"

He was startled and rushed forward, pulling Yuan Zhi away.

Yuan Zhi was stunned and asked in confusion: "Jiedushi, what are you doing..."

Before he finished speaking, Qiu Huan smiled at the young man and whispered: "Song Wu, why are you here?"

Song Wu frowned and said: "Who are you?"

Qiu Huan was a little embarrassed and said: "We have met before. Six years ago, I came to celebrate your grandfather's birthday, and you called me uncle."

Yuan Zhi lowered his head and gritted his teeth and said: "Jiedushi! We agreed in advance, and now you are dragging out some relatives to embarrass me. I really don't accept it."

He thought Qiu Huan just happened to know Song Wu, so he didn't want him to kill him.

Qiu Huan was also upset. Today, he could actually kill Song Wu in this way.He was at a disadvantage, so he said angrily: "Okay, I won't stop you, come and kill him, he is the only grandson of the Duke of Zhenguo, the last blood of the Song family."

"Come, come and kill him, and see if these soldiers around will eat you."

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers around were shocked, and they slowly moved forward one by one, with only murderous eyes.

Yuan Zhi subconsciously took two steps back, his face turned pale.

"Zhen... Duke of Zhenguo..."

These three words were like a heavy mountain, pressing him so hard that he couldn't breathe.

Duke of Zhenguo Song Shanao, a veteran of three dynasties, the Grand Marshal of the Great Jin Army, and a god-level figure in the army.

He had eight sons, all of whom died on the battlefield, leaving behind such a little grandson to continue the bloodline of the Song family.

The name Song Wu was given by the previous emperor, so you can imagine how important he is.

Yuan Zhi could swear that if he killed him, there would be no need for His Majesty to come forward, these soldiers could tear him to pieces.

For a moment, he could hardly lift his knife.

Zhou Yuan said slowly: "Master Qiu, it seems that Master Yuan dare not kill, how about you come?"

I'll come to your mother! When I was a centurion, his grandfather was the Grand Marshal of the Army.

Qiu Huan clenched his fists in anger and said coldly: "You, you are not following the rules."

Zhou Yuan said: "Then we will talk about it in the court. I will take Song Wu with me and let His Majesty and the civil and military officials judge it."

Bullshit, if you take him there, who will dare to speak to me!

What if his family's master also comes to the court! How can I have a good end?

The Beijing camp was just in my hands, but I encountered a subordinate who was not obedient to the master. It's really difficult to deal with.

Why did Song Wu get seduced by this bastard!

In the end, Qiu Huan could only snort heavily and said coldly: "Tens of thousands of mouths need to open to eat, let's see how you end up!"

"If you can't handle it yourself, just resign!"

After saying that, he jumped on his horse and turned around to leave.

Yuan Zhi sighed deeply and could only leave in disgrace.

Song Wu was stunned for a long time, turned around, grinned and said: "Look, they dare not fart!"

Zhou Yuan glanced at him and said coldly: "What does it have to do with you? Are they afraid of you or Song Shanao?"

As soon as this sentence came out, Song Wu's face flushed.
