I am a woman, I am a man, I want to marry a wife so that I can farm

Chapter 134 Do you want to rebel?

After returning to the military camp, Mu Heng found Mu Xingchen and Xu Wu.

"Dad, do you have something to talk to us about?" Mu Xingchen asked as he lifted the curtain.

"Yes!" Mu Heng nodded and said with a smile: "Your mother and the others should be arriving in the border town soon. Go and arrange a place for them to stay. Oh, and the Xu family will also be coming. You can rent two houses in the border town for them to stay temporarily."

"Mom and the others are coming?" Mu Xingchen was surprised, and then felt something was wrong. Why would the emperor allow the Mu family to come to the border town? "Dad, you are kidding, right?"

Mu Heng frowned and said, "Does Dad look like he's joking?"

Mu Xingchen shook his head subconsciously, and then said happily, "That's great, I'll go arrange a place to stay now."

"Well, go ahead." Mu Heng waved his hand at them and said, "If you are busy too late, you don't have to go back to the barracks today."

"it is good."

Coming out of Mu Heng's tent, Mu Xingchen was indescribably excited, "Fifth Brother, do you think things are going to change?"

Xu Wu looked up at the sky, "Maybe..."

......

After Ye Ze returned to the military camp, he first went to inspect his vanguard camp, and then went to He Chengfeng's tent to report. Deputy General Qin and General Wang were also there.

After Ye Ze bowed, He Chengfeng said, "General Ye has returned at the right time. The military pay from the court has not yet arrived. You and General Wang should go and investigate. After all, you are still young, so it would be good to have more experience. Remember to listen to General Wang's teachings on everything."

Ye Ze frowned and replied: "Yes!"

There were many cases in history where military pay and rations were delayed or withheld, but the one guarding the border was General He, so who would dare to make things difficult for his pay? In other words, who would dare to openly offend the He family?

General Wang said with a smile: "General Ye is young and promising. If he continues to gain experience, he will surely become a great man in the future!"

Ye Ze clasped his fists and said, "General Wang, thank you for your praise. I hope you can give me more advice."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

The two men exchanged a few polite words, then immediately left He Chengfeng's tent and set off with their troops.

In ancient times, there were fixed routes for delivering military pay and food fodder. This was to ensure that the pay could be delivered to the destination safely and on time. Post stations would also be set up along the way. Ye Ze and his team only needed to go to each post station along this route to inquire one by one.

In the evening of that day, the team arrived at the first post station, Beiyunguan, located at the junction of Yunzhou and Biancheng official roads. Of course, they found nothing here. It was already late, so General Wang decided to rest here for one night and continue to the next stop tomorrow.

At dusk, the soldiers finished a day's training, lined up to get food, ate, and ran to the small river at the foot of the mountain in groups of three or five to take a bath. They went to sleep when it got dark, and everything was normal in the barracks.

The camp has been in a truce recently, and the generals have gone to bed early to rest. The oil lamps in the tents have been extinguished one by one, and the entire camp has fallen into darkness. Only patrol soldiers with torches in their hands are marching in orderly steps outside the tents.

At midnight, when people were sleeping soundly, a patrol suddenly broke into the generals' tents...

This sudden change was unexpected. He Chengfeng, Deputy General Qin and all the generals above the fifth rank were captured. The operation took only one hour from the start to the end.

Everything happened so suddenly that they didn't even have time to think. They were strangled while they were still sleeping.

Everything Mu Heng did since the day he arrived at the military camp was planned for tonight.

That night, earth-shaking changes took place in the military camp.

General He, who was always high and mighty, was now like a stray dog, tied up and kneeling in front of Mu Heng. His eyes were bloodshot, and he cursed with resentment: "Mu Heng, you despicable villain! If you have the ability, just come here openly! What's the point of attacking in secret? Do you think that if you do this, the soldiers in the army will obey your orders? You are dreaming!"

Mu Heng suppressed the bloodthirsty hatred in his eyes and said calmly, "All is fair in war. The emperor treats his meritorious ministers like this and still wants me to continue to work for him. Do you think this is possible?"

He Chengfeng immediately retorted: "Isn't the emperor good enough to you? He lets you have no worries about food and drink, and you can continue to stay in the capital and enjoy your life. Isn't this a special favor? It's you, Mu Heng, who is still not satisfied!"

"Extraordinary mercy? Hahaha..." Mu Heng laughed as if he heard a joke. He looked at He Chengfeng with cold eyes and asked, "Extraordinary mercy means you want to throw my newborn daughter into the river and drown her. You can't even return her body to us? It was me, Mu Heng, who quelled the rebellion in the north for him and frightened the two southwestern countries from invading!"

"I wouldn't dare to complain even if the dog emperor demoted me to a commoner, but he treated me like his dog. When he needed me, he would let me go and bite people for him. When he didn't need me, he would tie me to his feet so that I couldn't make any sound. He even used my family to control me to work for him! Is this what you call special favor?"

"Then let me ask you, what did I do wrong? What did my daughter do wrong?"

"He Chengfeng, open your dog eyes and see clearly who they are!"

Mu Heng turned sideways and pointed at the men behind him who were wearing military uniforms and disguised as patrolmen.

The youngest among them is in his forties, and the oldest is already in his sixties.

They all had weathered faces but resolute eyes. They were all generals who had followed Mu Heng in battle thirty years ago. They were meritorious officials who had protected this territory with their lives and blood. They returned to the capital with merit and glory, but what was the result...

The good days didn't last long before the emperor confiscated their property and exiled them for various reasons!

With the light of the torch, He Chengfeng could only identify a few of them with difficulty. His eyes suddenly widened in shock, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Mu Heng, are you going to rebel?"

Mu Heng snorted coldly: "So what? It has come to this point. There is no need for me to hide it from you. The Great Yu Dynasty should have perished long ago!"

"Press it down!"

"Yes!"

It was dawn and the soldiers in the camp got up early to get their meals as usual, but the general who was supposed to train the soldiers had not arrived yet. Just as everyone was puzzled, a gong sounded and Lieutenant General Mu summoned all the soldiers to assemble at the parade ground.

Soon, the soldiers, led by their captains, lined up in neat rows and gathered at the parade ground.

When they looked up, they could see the generals on the high platform in front of them. Except for Mu Heng, they didn't recognize any of them. Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise, "What's going on? Why is General He not here?"

"Quiet down!" Mu Heng raised his hand and pressed down. When the noise below gradually subsided, Mu Heng said, "You are all soldiers of the Great Yu Dynasty, heroes who fought, shed blood, and even sacrificed their lives to defend the country!"

When they heard Mu Heng praising them as heroes, they felt a sense of pride rising in their hearts.
