Chapter 436: Killing by Chance (3)

Li Xian sat on the high platform of the general in the fortress school field, looking at the row of soldiers kneeling below, his face was still a little angry. He leaned back in his chair, his chin propped up, his eyes a little misty, and he didn't seem to be fixed on the faces of the soldiers. Pondering, I don't know what he's thinking at this moment.

"Fifty scepters is too much?"

Ye Huai Sleeve stood beside him and said in a very soft voice, she knew that by now, maybe she was the only one who could intercede, Fu Hu Nu and the two teams of Tiefutu cavalry brought by him were the most elite soldiers in Yanyun Jing Cavalry, and in their eyes, they would naturally be punished for violating military discipline, there was nothing to justify, they would never sympathize with these fortress soldiers, of course, if one day they violated the military discipline, they would not expect anyone to sympathize with them.

Li Xian's military salaries and rewards for the soldiers are extremely high, not to mention higher than those set by ordinary people in the green forest, and even one and a half stars higher than those of the Great Sui Imperial Court. The military salaries of the soldiers of the Great Sui Imperial Court were actually very rich, but later, they were intercepted layer by layer from top to bottom, and there were not many good meat that could fall into the hands of the soldiers in the end. The soldiers of Yanyunzhai hold the highest salary in the world and enjoy the most generous rewards, and correspondingly, the military discipline of Yanyunzhai is also the most stringent among the green forest teams.

Violations of law and discipline will naturally be punished.

Li Xian has always governed the army with fairness and fairness, and if he has meritorious service, he will be rewarded and punished.

So although he knew that Ye Huaisleeve was also well-intentioned, he still shook his head slightly and said: "National law and military discipline, it's not to buy vegetables in the vegetable market, you want to sell it for three or two for two yuan." One is one, two is two, merit is merit, and fault is fault. ”

Ye Huai nodded and stopped talking, she glanced at the kneeling soldiers, and said in her heart that she didn't know how many people could withstand the fifty military sticks, and how many people would die without waiting for the fifty military sticks to be beaten. Even those who survived would have been stripped of their military status, and they would later be the civilians of the fortress, who had made great mistakes, even worse than the refugees who had settled here.

For the soldiers, this is even more unbearable than killing them.

Li Xian pondered for a while, looked at the team kneeling under the high platform and asked, "Where are you from, and what relatives are there at home?" If you say it, I will arrange for someone to take care of your family. ”

"Subordinate to the local of Dongping County, his parents and a younger sister were all killed by Zhang Jin. I was alone, with no relatives. If I really want to talk about it, my fifty brothers are all my relatives. So ......"

The team was respectfully and solemnly kowtowing three heads, the sound of bangbang bang bang was like a muffled drum beating in people's hearts, only three times, he had already seen blood on his forehead, he raised his head to look at Li Xian and said solemnly: "Please be gracious, they are all real soldiers, and they can cut down any enemy when they go to the battlefield in the future." Because his subordinates were implicated, his subordinates were uneasy. The subordinates did not dare to ask the lord to forgive their sins, but only asked the lord to be gracious, and after the beating of fifty military sticks, if they were not dead, begged the lord to keep their military status, so that they could still serve in the army. ”

"They're not bad people!"

At this time, some of the onlookers shouted: "They just made this mistake, they are usually very good to us, they have never made things difficult, and they have helped us to work in the fields!" ”

"My lord! Leave them, let them farm, it's a pity that they have the ability to kill, leave them, let them guard Dongping County, guard the fortress, and guard us! ”

"Please, lord, keep them!"

Even the old man who was robbed of his daughter also bowed down and said: "The lord left them, from beginning to end, they have never beaten anyone, the grass people know why Team Chen is unwilling, it is the fault of the grass people, but they married the woman to the subordinates of the Hebei Dou thief, the grass people ask the lord to let them go." ”

Ye Huaisleeve smiled slightly, and said in his heart that this is a person who can be a person.

This old man's plea, in fact, is by no means really without a trace of resentment in his heart, but that this person knows the depth and the bad. If he didn't say a word, the people would have sympathized with him, but now they might have become sympathetic to the soldiers, and in the end he would be despised. They were all refugees, and the soldiers took care of them on weekdays, and he didn't want to live here in the future. Moreover, Li Xian said before that he would send their family back to Dou Jiande in Hebei, if it was true, he would naturally be happy, after all, Su Dingfang had now become a general in the Zhaozhou army.

But their family has a long road to Hebei, and if the escorted Yanyunzhai soldiers have a heart of revenge and behead their entire family in one go, it will be too wronged.

The people don't fight with the officials, and their arms can't twist their thighs.

The people were all pleading, and Li Xian's face softened slightly.

"Fifty military sticks are not missing, if you can withstand it, I will leave your military status."

"Thank you, lord!"

That team is prostrating with the soldiers!

Team Chen was looking back at the soldiers and shouted, "Can you stand up to fifty sticks?" If you can't stand it, you will find a place to kill yourself, not to mention that it is a soldier under my Chen Kedi, even if I go to the underworld, I can't afford to lose this person. ”

"Yes!"

Dozens of soldiers held their heads high, and not a single one of them looked afraid.

Ye Huaichong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said in his heart that Chen Kedi was also a character, and it was a pity to die like this.

"Fuhu Nu!"

Li Xian said loudly: "You personally go to the prison to behead, escort him to the outside of the fortress to behead, and then bury him on the spot, and you don't need to bring back the head for a physical examination." ”

"Whoa!"

Fu Hunu answered, and led a few personal soldiers to escort Chen Kedi to the outside of the fortress.

……

……

"What's your name?"

Li Xian leaned over to look at the woman and asked.

"I ...... My name is Qiu Chunjiao. ”

"Your husband is Su Dingfang, the general under Dou Jiande in Hebei?"

"I don't know where he is now, and it was only yesterday that I heard Team Chen say that he is now in Caozhou, Hebei. …… Our family fled for a few years, and after he killed Bing Cao, he also fled to other places, and there was no news for several years, and I really didn't know that he was now a general under Dou Jiande. ”

Li Xian nodded and said, "No matter what, if I send someone to send you across Hebei, are you willing?" Or do you want to stay here? ”

"I'd like to go to Hebei!"

Qiu Chunjiao raised her head and said loudly.

"Good"

Li Xian responded, and then turned his head sideways to Ye Huaisleeve and said: "Arrange for someone to send their family to Hebei, you personally watch this matter, you must not make any mistakes, you know, I can't break my trust." ”

Li Xian glanced at Ye Huaichong, and Ye Huaisleeve naturally understood the meaning in his eyes.

Li Xian really can't lose his trust, but what he doesn't want to lose his trust is Niu Jinda. On the same day, Li Xian once said that Liu Heimin would definitely be arrested and taken back for him to deal with personally. This opportunity came suddenly, and Li Xian naturally would not let it go. Since Liu Heimin appeared publicly in Dou Jiande's army, he has been more cautious, and the secret spies can't find a chance to attack at all, and it is extremely difficult to kill him from Dou Jiande's army, and it is even more difficult to capture him.

In the Zhaozhou Army, most of the generals under Liu Heimin and Dou Jiande have a general relationship, Cao Dan, Wang Fubao and others are even a little hostile to him, but Su Dingfang has a very good relationship with him, and the two have already worshiped brothers.

"Obedience"

Ye Huaisleeve nodded in response.

"In addition, the competent manpower transferred from the five departments of the Flying Tiger will check all the Tuntian forts in the three counties, and if anyone is found to have violated discipline and violated the law, once they are confirmed, the first evil will be killed."

"Obedience"

"Also, if the people in the fortress are oppressed, they can go directly to the yamen of the five departments of the Flying Tiger to complain. For officers below the rank of lieutenant, the Fifth Department of the Flying Tiger has the right to handle it directly without asking for instructions. From the fifth rank and below, the warrant you issued can be taken directly from the person, and from the fifth rank and above, you must tell me before you can take it. Starting today, the Fifth Department will be renamed the Military Inspection Department, and the responsibilities of the five departments will remain unchanged, and the sixth department will be added to be in charge of inspecting those who violate the law in the military. ”

"Obedience"

Ye Huaisleeve's heart tightened, and he suddenly felt that he seemed to have grasped something again. She pondered for a while, and her face suddenly changed, and she understood that Li Xian was not just about dealing with Liu Heimin because of today's fort matter! Now it seems that at least Li Xian kills three birds with one stone!

First, we must correct military law.

Second, Li Xian seems to be going to thoroughly investigate military discipline, but he is afraid that there is a more terrible meaning in it.

Third, it is necessary to arrest Liu Heimin.

In an instant, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Ye Huai's back. She sighed in her heart, it seems that Pei Renji's rebellion will still cause some waves after all, as for how big the waves are, Ye Huaichong doesn't know, she just vaguely smells a smell of blood, which is very strong.

After Pei Renji rebelled, Li Xian didn't say anything. First, it was to appease Pei Xingyan, and secondly, he didn't want to affect the morale of the army during the war. Now that there is no war, he must carry out a purge of hidden dangers in the army before his next big move.

This trip to the fortress gave him a reason.

With a butcher's knife move, Ye Huaichong didn't know if he could control it.

……

……

Li Xian ordered people to go back to Juye Zeben Village, and transferred 200 soldiers to be stationed in this fort, as for those soldiers who made mistakes, they also stayed to recuperate after the military law, and they still stayed here after their injuries were healed. Because of this incident, the original garrison in this fortress increased from 50 to more than 200.

Li Xian didn't seem interested in continuing after dealing with it, so Ye Huaisleeve ordered the team to return to Juye Zebenzhai.

"Still not happy?"

Ye Huaisleeve poured a cup of tea for Li Xian and asked.

"Not happy?"

Li Xian smiled faintly and said: "Where there is anything unhappy, as long as there are officials, there must be people who are greedy for money and bend the law, and this kind of thing cannot be stopped by being willing to kill people." To be honest, I was a little surprised that I didn't find out that Chen Kedi had anything else to bend the law. Judging from this man's control over his fifty soldiers, he is a man who can be reused. ”

"If ......"

Ye Huaisleeve sorted out the wording and persuaded: "Will such a thorough investigation of military discipline and perversion of the law cause disgust among the generals in the army?" After all, if you check carefully, I'm afraid that no one is really clean. At that time, if the scope of the investigation is too large, I am afraid that I will not be able to control it. ”

"yes, I know."

Li Xian nodded and said, "I'm not trying to do any cleaning. ”

Li Xian smiled and said, "I just used this incident to let my subordinates know my attitude." So you control the situation, not too small, not too big. ”

Ye Huaisleeve nodded: "It's a little difficult." ”

Li Xian smiled: "So, this black cauldron has to be carried by your Flying Tiger Fifth Division, after this incident, you Flying Tiger Fifth Division people and generals in the army are only afraid that they don't want to get too close." ”

The fourth!

Ye Huaichong calculated in his heart, where is there to kill three birds with one stone, this is already the fourth thing Li Xian has done with this little thing. That is to completely separate the Flying Tiger Five Division and the military, in addition to military intelligence cooperation, the generals have become hostile to the Flying Tiger Five Division. In this way, it reduces the possibility of the generals in the army and the people of the Flying Tiger Fifth Department conspiring to rebel, after all, if the generals in the army and the head of a certain Flying Tiger Fifth Department join forces, I am afraid that the impact will be much greater than a Pei Renji rebellion.

This speculation made the fear in her heart grow bigger and bigger.

Li Xian is becoming more and more unpredictable.

"The power of the five ministries is too great, restricting the generals and civilian officials in the army. Military generals, civilian officials, and Flying Tiger officials, the three forces are involved in each other's hatred, and I am more relieved. ”

Li Xian smiled and did not hide what he thought in his heart.

He glanced at Ye Huaisleeve, took a sip of tea and asked: "You will personally arrange the matter of going to Hebei, and Chen Kedi will also hand it over to you. ”

Ye Huaisleeve snorted, but his mind was still full of scenes of the five flying tigers, military generals, and civil officials restricting each other.

Among the guards who followed behind the carriage, none of the people noticed that there was one more person. When they came, they were twelve Flying Tiger Guards, but now they are thirteen.

Fu Hunu looked at the guards wearing black robes and black scarves beside him, smiled proudly and said, "Boy, your luck is really not ordinary. ”

The man pulled the black scarf up, revealing only one eye.

"The lord values it and repays it with death."

"!"

Fu Hunu scolded and said, "The lord wants a dead man to have a fart? Leaving you is naturally to let you live well, and if you live well, you can do more things for the lord, understand? ”
