The next day, early in the morning.
Su Jiang changed his clothes early and set off for the Sima Residence. Last night, he had already received Du Ruhui's orders. He only needed to stall for time.
For Su Jiang, stalling for time was easier than asking for the details of the time and place.
After all, the assassination was arranged by Sima Chang Sheng, and there was no fixed target. It was very tricky to figure it out, and it could easily lead to Sima Chang Sheng's plan.
Stalling for time was relatively easier.
When Su Jiang entered the Sima Residence and came to the study, Sima Chang Sheng impatiently said, "Su Sima, what do you think? After a night of consideration, there should be a result. You have to remember that we are working for the Wang Family. You should put away your pitiful self-esteem. Don't take it out to disgust people. "
Su Jiang said in a low voice, "Sima Chang Sheng, everyone has their own aspirations. I have my own way of doing things. I don't need your guidance."
Sima Chang Sheng sneered.
He actually looked down on people like Su Jiang. Since he was a whore, he still wanted to set up a monument to his chastity!
How could that be?
Sima Chang Sheng didn't say anything else. He went straight to the point and asked, "Tell me, what is your decision?"
Su Jiang said, "I agree with the assassination plan."
"Hahaha …"
Sima Chang Sheng laughed after hearing this. There was mockery and disdain in his laughter.
Su Jiang's face was as calm as water. He didn't speak.
After Sima Chang Sheng finished laughing, he said, "Su Sima, I laughed because you agreed to the plan. There is no other meaning. There really is no other meaning. Now that you have agreed to the plan, we can take action. Since Du Ruhui wants to fight with us, I will fight with him. I want to see how he can survive this disaster. "
Su Jiang said, "I agree to the plan of forcing Du Ruhui to step down by assassinating the people. However, this matter can't be arranged by just the two of us. We have to gather everyone in the Wang Family and get everyone to sign. "
"Get everyone to agree to this matter."
"This way, the news won't be leaked, and there will be people to share the burden."
"Our people know the method of assassination, but it won't be good if it is leaked. Or if someone is greedy for power and wants to fall to Du Ruhui's side, it won't be good. "
"Everyone, please sign and press your fingerprints to agree to the plan of assassinating the civilians. In this way, no one will be able to escape, and no one will dare to act rashly. "
Su Jiang said, "This is my only condition. We must follow this plan."
Sima Chang Sheng said, "Su Jiang, you worry too much. No one dares to tell on you. If you do this, you will waste time. At the very least, if we go back and forth once, it might be over this morning or even this afternoon. "
Su Jiang said, "We must be cautious."
His words were firm, leaving no room for negotiation. When Sima Zhang Sheng heard this, he felt very helpless. However, he also needed Su Jiang's help. If he wanted to take down Du Ruhui, he needed the power of the entire Wang family, and he needed Su Jiang's cooperation.
Sima Zhang Sheng thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Fine, I'll do as you say. I will immediately gather everyone to the Sima Family, and we will come up with a plan of action. Everyone will sign your names. "
Su Jiang said, "Sure!"
To Su Jiang, the process of gathering was a process that consumed time.
Stalling for half a day was no problem at all.
Outside Yanmen City, the army camp.
Du Qi had already left the city early and went straight to the army camp.
Yanmen City was an important town.
There were garrisons in the border counties.
Today, there was an additional line of defense in the north of Yanmen City. However, there was no need to doubt the importance of Yanmen City. There were more than thirty thousand elite troops garrisoned there.
These elites were not used to maintain law and order. The troops were garrisoned there to prevent the invasion of the Turks in the north, and to prevent a rebellion in Daizhou.
The general of the garrisoned troops was called Lu Ye.
He was in charge of military matters.
Of course, under normal circumstances, Lu Ye would follow the orders of Du Ruhui, the Daizhou General Manager. However, this kind of mobilization was just official business. It was to defend against the Turks, or to quell a rebellion.
If he wanted to mobilize troops to do other things, even if Du Ruhui gave the order, he might not be able to mobilize them.
Du Qi arrived at the entrance of the army camp early.
When Du Qi appeared at the entrance of the camp and wanted to pay his respects to Lu Ye, the army camp was in an uproar. Countless soldiers were excited. Back at Yanmen Pass, it was Du Qi who commanded them to fight and obtained the final victory.
Everyone in the army was very respectful to Du Qi.
This was the benefit of Du Qi commanding the battle. He had prestige in the army.
Even if he was not in the army.
After the soldier went to report, not long after, Lu Ye personally came to the entrance of the camp to welcome him. Lu Ye also participated in the Battle of Yanmen Pass. He was also a general in the army.
Lu Ye said respectfully, "Young Master, you have been at Yanmen City for some time. You only came to the army camp today. There are countless soldiers in this camp who want to meet you. Each and every one of them miss the Battle of Yanmen Pass. They miss the time when you led us and easily destroyed Xieli Khan's attack. "
Du Qi said, "It's all in the past. Moreover, the main arrangements were made by King Dingxiang. I only gave some small suggestions. It's not worth mentioning. "
Lu Ye said, "Young Master is too polite."
After a pause, Lu Ye said, "Young Master, I have gathered all the soldiers. Now, all the soldiers in the army are gathered in the drill ground. Young Master, please speak to the soldiers. The brothers are all willing to listen to Young Master. "
"Sure, no problem!"
Du Qi directly agreed.
To him, this was not a difficult thing. It was also a chance to get closer to the soldiers in the army.
Lu Ye was dressed in armor and led Du Qi straight to the army camp. When they arrived at the drill ground of the army camp, they saw the black mass of soldiers already lined up neatly.
The neat army exuded a dense murderous aura.
This army had the ability to fight.
After all, it was the army led by Li Daen. Especially after they went through the baptism of the Battle of Yanmen Pass, the soldiers' willpower was baptized. Their fighting spirit was high, and their fighting strength was even stronger.
Lu Ye stood directly below the stage.
The moment he stood still, everyone bowed to Du Qi. They saluted in unison, sonorous and forceful, and even more visually stunning.
Du Qi was also used to grand occasions.
Now that he saw this scene, he was also quite shocked. He clasped his hands and solemnly returned the bow. Then, he stood still. At this time, the entire drill ground was silent. Everyone's eyes fell on Du Qi.
Du Qi said, "When I came to the army camp earlier, General Lu said that he wanted me to say a few words to the brothers. In fact, I was thinking that I was just a half-grown boy with no merits, no ability, and no prestige. How could I be qualified to say a few words to you?"
Everyone listened to Du Qi's words.
However, the soldiers in the army did not think that Du Qi was not qualified. On the contrary, they approved of Du Qi.
Du Qi continued, "I know that you are grateful for the Battle of Yanmen Pass, so you are willing to trust me and listen to my nagging. In fact, I still want to say that in the Battle of Yanmen Pass, my merits are not great. "
"On the contrary, you are admirable."
"You are the real heroes."
"Because at the border, there are a group of unknown soldiers like you guarding the border and fighting to the death with the Turks. Because of you, the Tang dynasty was stable and thousands of people lived a stable life. "
Du Qi continued, "It was you who carried a heavy burden in the border area. It was also you who took root in the border area. It was also you who ensured the stability of Daizhou and the long-term stability of the Tang dynasty. You are the real heroes. "
Du Qi's words were praising all the soldiers.
Du Qi did admire the soldiers in the border area. This was because the Turks would often invade the borders and even other bandits would wreak havoc. It was because the border army resisted these invasions that the Tang dynasty was stable.
Du Qi thought that these people were heroes.
This was what he wanted to say to everyone.
