Chapter 640: Seizure of power


"General, the fourth general of Kang State has arrived."

A soldier walked into the yard and reported.

Huo Kan, who was practicing his swordsmanship, stopped when he heard the sound, turned around and said: "Let them wait in the front hall, give them some tea, I will be there in a moment."

"Nuo" Xiaobing agreed and turned around to leave.

Huo Kan put the big knife on the weapon rack, took the towel from a soldier nearby and wiped off his sweat, washed up again, changed into clean clothes and came to the front hall.

When the four generals of Kang State saw Huo Kan walking into the lobby, they all stood up and saluted: "Meet General Huo."

Huo Kan didn't understand Sogdian.

He nodded after listening to the translation by a Sogdian next to him, sat down on the big chair and said, "Four generals are exempt from the courtesy.

I have invited you here today because there is one thing."

Things are going to be announced to you.

From today on, you and the command of your army will All the power belongs to this general.

The food and military expenditures allocated by Kang State to the army are directly allocated to this general, who will then allocate them to you according to your respective needs.

Except for this general or the general appointed by Marshal Zhao, no one has the right to control it.

You gave the order, do you understand it?"

The commander of the left army of Kang State was a bearded general.

His expression changed and he immediately said angrily: "This is impossible.

We are the generals of Kang State, and the army is the army of Kang State.

Even if Kang State is a fan state of the Tang Dynasty, you can't do it."

He has no right to directly command us beyond our king and government.”

Huo Kan looked at this man with a sneer, then looked at the other three Kangguo generals, and asked: "What is the attitude of the three of you?"

The other three Kangguo generals looked at each other.

They were obviously more aware of the current situation in Kangguo than the bearded general.

Although Kangguo was still a country, it was basically paralyzed politically after the king went to Chang'an, and the army was also defeated by the Tang army.

Control, the distribution of grain and grass is also controlled by the Tang army.

If the Tang army cuts off water and food, and then besieges the Kang army, the Kang army, which has less than 2,000 people, will starve to death without attacking.

At this point, the Kang state has lost the ability to speak for itself. right.

The Kang state is dying.

Shouldn't all the people of the Kang state be buried with him?

But it was too shameful to agree so happily.

The right army general saluted and said: "General, I'm afraid it's not good.

What if the superiors ask?"

Huo Kan said: "Just obey my orders.

The upper levels of Kang State will naturally be negotiated by us, the Tang Army."

Once they reached the bottom of the stairs, the three of them stopped insisting and immediately agreed: "Then I will obey General Huo's dispatch and command from now on."

Huo Kan nodded with a smile and said: "Okay, as long as you obey my general's orders and dispatches, the life you have lived before will be the same life you will live in the future, and it will be even better.

Serving our Tang Dynasty, the benefits you will receive are definitely not the same as before.

What Kang Guo gave you is comparable."

The leader of the left army, Big Beard, pointed at the three men and became furious: "Traitors and lackeys, the king has raised your family for generations.

Is this how you repay the king?"

After scolding the three people, the bearded man pointed at Huo Kan and cursed: "What kind of heaven are you?

What is the difference between what you are doing now and the big cannibal?

Your purpose is just to look at the big cannibal and invade.

Our land, cattle and sheep, let us make cattle and horses for you.

I believe that you are just like the cannibals and will never end well."

Huo Kan slapped the table next to him and stood up furiously: "How dare you, you actually slandered our Tang Dynasty and your country, Kang, was originally my country of the Tang Dynasty, but you betrayed it many times after the cannibals came.

Betraitors are always shameful.

No matter what method of punishment is used Excuse me, our Tang Dynasty is kind by nature.

It would have been very merciful not to kill all the people of Kang State.

People like you who bully the weak and fear the strong and are stubborn will only be afraid that the cannibals will come again.

People like you You will rebel again, what use will you be left with?"

Two soldiers with swords flashed out of the door.

Huo Kan pointed at the bearded general of the left army and said angrily: "Drag him down and kill him."

The two soldiers didn't answer.

They stepped forward and grabbed the bearded man's arm and dragged him out.

The bearded man shouted in horror: "Let me go, let me go."

The shouting got farther and farther, and then stopped abruptly.

A soldier soon walked in with a bloody head to pay the order.

The remaining three Kangguo generals saw that the man who was alive just now had his head chopped off before he could blink.

At this time, they were trembling with fear.

They were very happy in their hearts.

If they had been as tough as this bearded man just now, they were afraid that their own My head also moved at this time.

Seeing the expressions of these three people, Huo Kan was extremely satisfied.

He waved to the soldier and then said to the three of them: "Three generals, we have a saying in the Tang Dynasty that those who know the current affairs are heroes.

Although the three generals We are not the people of the Tang Dynasty, but we understand the essence of these words.

I appreciate it very much.

You three will go back first so that you can control the army and practice diligently.

I will go to your military camps to inspect each other soon."

The three people quickly agreed: "Yes, I will wait for the general to come for inspection."

After sending these three people away, Huo Kan thought that he had just beheaded a Kangguo general.

This army must appoint a new general as soon as possible.

This person must obey the command and dispatch, and cannot be a thorn.

In addition, it is not enough to just control the generals of these four Kang armies.

If the generals of this army are only obedient on the surface, but secretly have ulterior motives, this is not safe.

You must also find one or a few more obedient generals among these four armies.

People came to restrain these four generals respectively.

Once these four people had evil intentions, the people arranged in the dark could kill them and replace them, thus controlling the army.

Thinking of this, Huo Kan turned around and shouted: "Here comes someone!"

A soldier walked in, cupped his hands and said: "General" "In addition to one chief general, the four Kang armies also have two deputy generals.

Send people quickly to find out the relevant information about them.

Once you find out clearly, report back quickly."

"promise" Two days later, Huo Kan got the relevant news.

He immediately led his troops to inspect the Kang army camp.

The four Kang army camps were stationed near the four gates of the city built by Samat.

They were not far from each other.

However, Huo Kan spent two days.

It took a while to complete the inspection of the four Kang army camps. , during the inspection, Huo Kan deliberately found trouble and reprimanded the generals of the four Kang armies.

The chief general of Kang's left army was beheaded.

Although Huo Kan wanted to re-appoint someone to control this army as soon as possible, he did not.

Appoint someone in a hurry.

On the night after the inspection was completed, a deputy general from the Kangguo left army camp came to Huo Kan's army camp to ask for a meeting, holding a beautiful wooden box in his hand.

Huo Kan met him immediately after hearing the report.

When he saw the man put down the wooden box, he pretended to be puzzled and asked: "What are you doing?"

The deputy general of the Zuo Army quickly flattered him and said: "General Huo, this little thing is no sign of respect.

I heard that the general beheaded Kang Guli.

It was a good beheading.

Kang Guli always thinks highly of himself and looks down on other people.

He thinks that others The general has no character, and he doesn’t want to think about the time when the cannibals came. , he was the first general to surrender.

Such a person actually had the nerve to laugh at others.

He deserved to die.

He didn't even listen to the general of the Tang Dynasty.

If he didn't kill him, who would he kill?

The villain thought that only by following the Tang Dynasty could Kang Guo have a future. , only under the rule of the Tang Dynasty can the people of Kang State have a good life."

Huo Kan was stunned when he heard the words of the deputy general of the Zuo Army.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses, thinking that there was such a weird thing in Kang country.

But Huo Kan was very happy.

As long as this person is willing to serve the Tang Dynasty, no matter what.

Isn't that weird?

So he patted this person on the shoulder and praised: "Your name is Kang Bali, right?

You have extraordinary knowledge."

The deputy general of the Zuo Army grinned after hearing this, nodded quickly and said, "Thank you so much for the compliment, general, and thank you so much for the villain Kang Bali's willingness to ride beside the general, even to the death."

Huo Kan even smiled and said: "Well, it would be too unqualified for a person like you not to be the commander-in-chief of the Zuo Army.

Now that the position of commander-in-chief of the Zuo Army is vacant, you should take over.

The appointing officer will send it over in the morning.

When the time comes, my general will go with you to support you."

"Thank you, general.

Thank you, general.

From now on, you will be my reborn parent.

You must obey my orders."

The next morning, Huo Kan arrived at the Zuo Army camp with the official appointment document.

He was accompanied by two hundred elite cavalrymen of the Tang Army.

Each of these Tang Army elite cavalry were fully armored and full of murderous intent, making people afraid to look directly at them. .

Nearly five hundred Kang troops were gathered together.

Huo Kan walked up to the high platform and shouted loudly: "The leader of Kang's left army was the first to surrender when the cannibals came over last year, and led his army to help the cannibals attack our Tang Dynasty.

This is He deserves to be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts, but I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, am kind and virtuous and cannot bear to give such a severe punishment, so I only issued an edict to kill him.

Kang Guli was already beheaded yesterday."

Kang Jun in the audience suddenly started talking and making noise.

Huo Kan shouted: "Quiet, anyone who makes any noise again will be shot without mercy."

When the two hundred elite cavalrymen of the Tang Army heard this sound, they struck the ground with their long weapons, stood up and shouted: "Ho!"

Nearly five hundred Kang soldiers were so frightened by this momentum that they all shut up and dared not speak out, and they were all as silent as a cicada.

Huo Kan was very satisfied when he saw this, and continued to loudly say: "From now on, the Kang army will only be dispatched and commanded by our Tang army, and all military expenses and food will be allocated by our Tang army.

This general Huo Kan is the Protector of the Beiting Protectorate.

The person appointed by Marshal Zhao, the military governor of the camp, to handle the military affairs of the Kang Army is your direct superior to the Kang Army.

My orders are your highest orders.

No one can disobey them, otherwise they will be killed without mercy."

After the Sogdian man next to him translated the original words, Huo Kan saw that there was not much reaction from the audience, and he felt relieved immediately.

He took the official appointment document from the soldier next to him, opened it and said: "Since the left army no longer has a general, and The position of general cannot remain vacant for a long time, so I will now appoint the former deputy general Kang Bali to take over the position of general.

From now on, General Kang Bali’s words are my general’s words.

All of you must obey, and those who disobey will die
