"What, refusing to shoot during the battle, and almost letting the Tartars break through the walls?" Xia Nan heard the ins and outs of the matter, and became angry on the spot, "With such a serious violation of discipline, you actually plan to lock up the small black house for only a few days?" How can such a way of disposing of the mud create a disciplined army? Do you have to wait until the day they turn their guns and shoot at you? ”

Lin Weiye touched the back of his head with some embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Extinguish the fire first, don't we also look at the fact that if the disposal is too heavy in wartime, we are afraid of shaking the morale of the army...... Besides, they are all locals and recruits, so if they go too far, will they cause a mutiny? ”

"It is inconvenient to deal with it in wartime, so what about after the war? Now that the Tartars have withdrawn, you don't see the next step! And what happened to the recruits? who is not trained from recruits; What's wrong with the locals, even if there are a few local relatives of the seven aunts and eight aunts, do they still dare to confront the army? Xia Nan hated iron and steel, and said, "You usually engage in technology, and you have little time in the army, so I won't find your fault, what about Su's thick legs?" He came up step by step from a small soldier, doesn't he understand this truth? ”

Su followed behind Lin Weiye, and when he heard the words, he stood up and said curtly: "General, I'm here......"

"Pull these soldiers out, I'm going to deal with them myself! All the soldiers of the Independent Regiment, except for the sentry, came to watch the disposal process and let them know the rules of our Qiong Navy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Su shrank his head and lowered his head to lift someone.

At this moment, several heads poked out of the window of the next room where the errant soldier was being held, as if watching the excitement. Xia Nan accidentally saw it, and found that these people were dressed differently from the Han people, and they were wearing felt hats on their heads, which were somewhat similar to the Mongolian herdsmen he had seen in the old time and space. Puzzled, he pointed to these people and asked, "Where did these people come from?" ”

Lin Weiye glanced at it and introduced: "These people are Mongolians who came with the Tartars, and they rushed into the fortress without their own strength, and we made dumplings. As for why they came, we have to mention Ma Wei, speaking of which, the Tartars came all the way to Dengzhou this time, and it was all caused by Ma Wei's bandits...... "By the way, Ma Wei was ordered to go to Qingzhou to suppress bandits, and then met the Mongolian cavalry, and there was an encounter, which angered Abatai, and then the story of the siege was concisely told to Xia Nan.

Xia Nan only then knew how the accidental incident of Abatai's entry into Shandong was triggered, he looked at those Mongols, and had an idea in his heart.

At this time, Su Thick Legs brought dozens of soldiers who were locked up and stood in front of Xia Nan. The soldiers of the Independent Regiment also came to the square one after another, and under the command of the officer, they formed a horizontal formation and formed a circle, and the soldiers in charge of the guard task stood on the city wall and watched condescendingly.

Xia Nan glanced at it and found that most of these soldiers still had grievances and unwillingness in their eyes, and it seemed that they didn't say anything in their mouths, and they didn't think they were wrong in their hearts.

Xia Nan commanded Su Thick Legs: "Bring a dozen Mongols over and bring their horse whips as well." Then he looked at the soldiers and asked lightly: "Tell me, do you think you are wrong, and if so, what is the reason?" ”

Soldiers, you look at me, I look at you, your mouth moved, but you didn't dare to speak first. Su Thick Legs shouted: "This is our general, the chief military officer of Pingnan ordered by the imperial court, even I am his soldier, what about you now, dumb?" ”

One of the soldiers mustered up his courage and said to Xia Nan: "General, you are the biggest official in our place, you give a comment, at that time, the Tartars escorted my uncle to attack the city, I can't shoot at his old man, right?" If I kill my uncle with my own hands, I won't even be able to go back to the village......"

Xia Nan nodded: "You are very filial, that's right." ”

The soldier's eyes lit up, could it be that things had taken a turn for the better?

Xia Nan continued: "But loyalty and filial piety are difficult to achieve both. When you enter my army, you have a salary comparable to that of a family member, and you have no worries about eating and drinking, and you must abide by the rules here. On the battlefield, military discipline must be obeyed, orders must be obeyed, not to mention your uncle, even if you order to shoot at your own father, you must shoot. ”

These soldiers were in an uproar, what kind of rule is this, how can there be any reason to shoot at their own father?

Xia Nan looked at them coldly: "You don't think it's close, right?" At that time, the Tartars carried your relatives to attack the city, either shooting or being killed by the Tartars, there was no middle way, and with the brutality of the Tartars, even if you lost your lives, would your relatives survive? The soldiers were speechless and bowed their heads in silence.

"Besides, even if you are willing to bury your relatives for the sake of your uncle and uncle, and fulfill your reputation for filial piety, then what about other people, must they also bury you? Your selfishness is likely to cost the lives of thousands of comrades-in-arms! Xia Nan pointed to the soldiers watching from the periphery and asked loudly.

These soldiers were stunned, looked at the soldiers around them, and found that their eyes were cold and hostile, and their comrades-in-arms, who had been close a few days ago, suddenly became strange. Xia Nan's words succeeded in igniting the resentment in the hearts of the rest of the soldiers - yes, this small group of people almost sent thousands of their own living people to see the king of Hades for their own filial piety, everyone was born to their parents, why should we give you a funeral?

"Since you have chosen to disobey orders and be willing to give your lives to your enemies, let your enemies give you the punishment they deserve!" Xia Nan beckoned, motioned to the soldiers of the Guards Battalion to bring the overwhelmed Mongols over, and told them, "You should all be able to understand Chinese." Take up your horsewhips, and whip these soldiers as you would your slaves on the steppe, and whip these soldiers as hard as they do until they break. Whoever keeps his strength will be killed on the spot! ”

Whip off! This punishment made everyone gasp, and even the Mongols were a little frightened - if they were whipped like this, they would die, and if they were to be killed, would they use this as an excuse to take their anger on themselves?

Xia Nan whispered a few words to Yang Youji, Yang Youji nodded, ordered a hundred soldiers of the Guards Battalion to surround the Mongols and the erring soldiers, and then said, "Start the execution!" The one who is the first to break the whip can rest and get his hands dirty. ”

In the face of the muzzle of the black hole, the Mongols did not dare to slack off, and used their strength to draw towards the opposite side, and with a "snap", as soon as the whip went down, the clothes on the soldiers' backs were torn, and the blood-red whip marks were clearly visible.

The entire fortress was silent, except for the "crackling" whips and the unbearable screams of the soldiers echoing over the square.

Lin Weiye quietly asked: "Are you too ruthless to do this?" ”

Xia Nan replied coldly: "Military discipline cannot be broken, if such things as disobeying military orders on the battlefield are connived at, this independent regiment will sooner or later become a court officer and soldier with corrupt military discipline, what is the use of raising such a force!" ”
