【Chapter 556】 The aftermath before the Great War has not disappeared

General Wei's Mansion.

In the east wing, Li Li gently pushed the door in, and Li Zhi followed closely behind, holding some fine medicinal materials in his hands.

In the room, Dian Wei and more than a dozen generals gathered in front of the couch, and they all comforted Duan Xuan who was lying on the couch.

Sixty military rods are enough to beat a second-rate military general to death, and if it is a weak scribe, it is even more fatal, and it is really difficult to escape.

Fortunately, Duan Xuan's martial arts are strong, and his body is far from being comparable to that of a scribe, even so, the sixty military staff down will beat him to the point that his skin is open and his flesh and blood are blurred.

"The lord is really angry this time. I waited for a long time to no avail, but fortunately Da Sima interceded, otherwise Zhong Ming would only be afraid of more evil and less auspicious this time! "Before the couch, Hu Zhen, Yang Ding, Li Meng, Wang Fang, Guo Meng and other generals were all here, and the person who spoke was Yang Ding.

After hearing this, Dian Wei, who was also punished, shook his head and said: "It's no wonder that the lord is in this matter, it is indeed incompetent, the prevention is unfavorable, and the barbarian army has taken advantage of the loopholes, lost the army, lost the city and lost the land, and also caused tens of thousands of people to suffer, so he should be punished!" This time, the lord is already open to the net, and he is extrajudicial to show grace, otherwise even if he beheads us, it is reasonable. Military law is ruthless! ”

Li Meng, Wang Fang and the others nodded when they heard this, and echoed: "What General Dian Wei said is extremely true. If the lord doesn't remember the old feelings, I'm afraid that General Duan will be unable to survive this time, and his unintentional mistake will cause a big disaster! ”

Hu Zhen said with great regret: "It's a pity that Zhong Ming has been fighting for more than ten years, and he finally survived and worshiped the marquis. It's hateful that why the Fuluo barbarian thief violated my border at this time, it is really unexpected, and I was caught off guard! ”

As Li Li's haircut, Guo Meng naturally wanted to speak for Li Li at this time: "General Duan doesn't have to worry. At present, the war is imminent, and in the world of great contention, the world is in turmoil, and there are not a few opportunities to make contributions in the future. It doesn't take three years or five years. As long as one or two big battles are over, General Duan's lost qiē will be regained, or even surpassed. ”

Duan Xuan, who was lying on the couch, did not scream in pain when he was tortured, but at this moment he couldn't help but moan in a low voice. The sixty cane was really the flesh of the cane, and it made his ass bloom, and the blood was dripping from the back and waist down, so it didn't hurt. At this moment, his heart was very complicated, and he felt both happy and regretful. There are also some inexplicable feelings.

In this meeting of the Shuaifu, Duan Xuan had already been mentally prepared, and even prepared for the worst to die. However, he also did a lot of work beforehand, but he visited all the generals and ministers who could speak. Reminiscing about the old days and gossiping without mentioning the matter of intercession. Among them, the most critical people are Shang Shuling Li Xuan, Shizhong Li Ru, military advisor Jia Xu and Da Sima Li Dao. It was the focus of his visit.

For this. Duan Xuan had arrived in Chang'an eight days ago, and he was accompanied by Guo Yan, the commander of the Qinglong camp. When he learned that he had made a big mistake in Guo Yan's big tent that day, Duan Xuan was really discouraged, frightened, and suddenly felt that a catastrophe was coming, and his life was not guaranteed. Afterwards, Guo Yan tried every means to persuade him. Let him take the initiative to admit his mistakes, take the guilt, and maybe there will be a turnaround. After all, the generals in the army all know that the lord Li Li has always been lenient, unless he deliberately disobeys the general's orders. Otherwise, it will not be lightly punished with capital punishment for the generals under his command.

Because of this, Duan Xuan knew that he had made a big mistake, and he dared to come to Chang'an to confess his guilt, in fact, he was sure that Li Li would not kill him. After suffering for seven or eight days, he finally waited for the Shuaifu to discuss the matter, and the result was just as Duan Xuan thought, and in the end he saved his life, but he also received an unexpected punishment.

According to his expected calculations, this time he committed an unforgivable crime, and he will inevitably be punished, but he will not be dismissed from office, at most, he will be fined and demoted. But now it is beyond his expectations, dismissed from office and punished, and after he recovers from his injuries, he is an insignificant pawn, which makes him embarrassed! Knowing that this was the end, he would rather die than start all over again like this. But this is only his idea for the rest of his life, before that, he only wants to save his life, and everything else can be abandoned. How can the human heart be like this, it is difficult to be completely satisfied, and it is human instinct to gain an inch.

Although Duan Xuan felt a lot of guilt in his heart at this time, he did not have the slightest hatred for his lord Li Li, but became more and more in awe. The closer he followed Li Li and the more he learned about him, the more Duan Xuan admired his lord Li Li.

In Duan Xuan's view, Li Li's trip to the Central Plains seems rash and reckless, but in fact it is a wise and courageous move. Moreover, Li Li chose the right time to travel, just when the situation in the Central Plains was uncertain, and when the princes of all walks of life were full of ambition, he traveled to the Central Plains. Once this time period is missed, I am afraid that Li Li will no longer have the opportunity to travel the world, and can only conquer the prefectures and counties step by step, and perhaps see the great rivers and mountains of the Central Plains and Jingyang Prefectures.

More importantly, Li Li has gained a lot from this trip, and has solved the current situation of the shortage of food and grass in the Xiliang Army in one fell swoop.

In addition, there is the dragon slaying incident, in fact, the generals in the army know the whole thing. However, knowing that after really seeing Jiaolong, Xiliang and the civil and military forces were in awe of Li Li in their hearts, and even many generals respected Li Li as a god, as if he was a god, and his prestige was like the sky, which was tantamount to a god in the minds of the soldiers of the Xiliang army.

Therefore, Hugh said that Duan Xuan was now severely punished, even if Li Li beheaded him in court, no one in the army would dare to resentment against Li Li, but would become more and more awe-inspiring, including Duan Xuan himself.

"Thank you to all the generals for coming to visit, Duan is grateful." Duan Xuan, who was lying on the couch and thinking to himself, heard the words of the generals in his ears, and thanked him in a low voice.

Then he continued: "Duan Mou committed a serious crime this time, the crime is unforgivable, and the lord's punishment is indeed benevolent and righteous, and he is merciful outside the law." Now Duan is already a pawn, and after making contributions in the coming days, he will drink wine with the generals. As Major General Guo Meng said, now in a chaotic world, as long as Duan Mou saves his life and fights bravely to kill the enemy in the future, why can't he make meritorious contributions. Therefore, you don't have to worry about me, leave for the time being, and we will talk about friendship later. Generals, please! ”

Duan Xuan is a person with an excellent face, he has always been quiet, not good at words, withdrawn personality, has few real friends in the Xiliang army, and has not had close contacts with many old Xiliang generals, only slightly better than general friends. However, he is cautious and does not offend people lightly. Therefore, over the years, I have accumulated some contacts.

Now, he has been dismissed from office, and suddenly feels that his status is very different from that of these generals in front of him, and he is quite ashamed to see people. Therefore, he has already said thank you, and wants to clean up alone, sort out his thoughts, or lick the calf's wound alone and talk about masturbation.

When the generals heard this, they were slightly stunned. Then he could understand Duan Xuan's current mood, so they bowed their hands and prepared to leave.

"My lord? The last general will wait to meet the lord! As soon as they turned around, the generals saw Li Li and Li Zhi standing at the door, and it seemed that they had been in for a long time.

"Hehehe! You don't have to be formal. Even though I'm leaving, I'm just in time to talk to Zhong Ming. Li Li smiled and walked to the couch. Waving his hand to signal the generals to leave.

"The end will be rude. I beg your forgiveness. On the couch, Duan Xuan struggled to get up and saluted urgently.

Li Li casually pressed Duan Xuan, who was about to stay: "Zhong Ming is injured, why be polite." Lie down quickly to avoid bleeding from the wound again, and the wound will not be added to the injury. ”

Duan Xuan lay on his side on the couch. Panicked: "The sinner thanked the lord for not killing!" This time it was indeed my negligence and made a big mistake, and now I regret it. The lord punished him today, and I was convinced. Self-inflicted and deserving of punishment. ”

Li Li bowed his head slightly and smiled: "Let the past pass." Merit will be rewarded, and if there is a mistake, punishment will be punished, this is an eternal and unchanging iron law in the army, and no one can exceed it, otherwise I will definitely punish him severely. Zhong Ming's fault has already been punished, so the matter has been revealed, and it must not be mentioned again in the future. As long as Zhong Ming learns a lesson, he must not repeat the mistakes of the past in the future. ”

"Thank you for your forgiveness, your subordinates will definitely remember the teachings of your lord!" Duan Xuan replied respectfully.

Li Li patted Duan Xuan's shoulder and said with relief: "Speaking of details, Zhong Ming's fault this time has something to do with me. After returning to Xiliang, I originally let you rest for half a month, but you didn't rest for a moment, and immediately returned to the barracks to guard the border. However, this time, Yu Fuluo's army sneaked up on the pass, but happened to encounter Zhong Ming leaving the camp for something, so that disaster happened. Therefore, Zhong Ming's sin is unforgivable, but it is forgivable.

The reason why I severely punished Zhong Ming today is because the war is imminent, and military discipline must not be relaxed, otherwise it is difficult to guarantee that such things will not happen again. Therefore, I can only wronged Zhongming and let you suffer. However, Zhong Ming has always been loyal, and I know these in my heart, and when Zhong Ming builds new achievements in the future, I will reward them together! ”

"My lord! I 、、、" Li Li's words made Duan Xuanhu's eyes tearful, choked and couldn't speak.

Li Li patted the back of Duan Xuan's hand, nodded heavily, and said with concern: "Zhong Ming is recuperating from his injuries, I will bring you some homemade medicinal powder, I believe that your injuries will recover soon." After recovering from his injury, Zhong Ming was temporarily by my side as the commander of the personal soldiers, and after this battle, he would be rewarded for his meritorious deeds. ”

After speaking, Li Li slowly got up, motioned for Li Zhi to give Duan Xuan medicine, and left with a smile.

"Congratulations to my lord!" Seeing Li Li turn around and leave, Duan Xuan said respectfully.

After leaving the east wing, Li Li slowly walked to the backyard, thinking calmly as he walked.

"That's what you call a slap to a sweet date, right?" As soon as he turned and walked into the corridor, Dian Wuflawless walked over and said with a chuckle to Li Li.

Li Li smiled knowingly and said: "How can you control the army without military discipline, meritorious service will be rewarded and punishment will be punished, so as to be convincing." There are some things that must be curbed as soon as possible, otherwise there will be endless disasters in the future. ”

Dian Flawless walked to Li Li's side, took his arm, and said softly with silky eyes: "Avoiding the important is light, and the left and right are other things, you are too cunning and never answer other people's questions head-on." Husband, if you don't have your uncle to help you intercede, do you really want to cut the simmer? ”

"What do you say?" Li Li then asked rhetorically, and said with a smile: "You, don't ask more about this kind of thing in the future, take care of your children with peace of mind, and concentrate on being a good wife and mother!" ”

Dian Wuflawless chuckled charmingly, and said softly: "I know you want children, but it's a pity that the Thorn Mansion is hundreds of miles away, and the children are too young to withstand the long journey, so our sisters left the children in Hanyang." When the husband is out on the expedition, we will return immediately and take good care of your precious son, so that it will be all right! ”

"What are these words, that's my son, isn't it your son!" Li Li said in amazement.

Then he shook his head and smiled: "I won't quarrel with you anymore." In fact, I know that you came to Chang'an in a hurry to see me before I set out on the expedition, and I cherish this affection very much. So far, we have been separated for more than half a year, and we have made you suffer! ”

Hearing this, Dian Wufang was infinitely shy, and whispered in his ear: "Since the husband knows, he must work hard in the past few days." Last night, it was the eldest sister and the three of them, and tonight the concubine gave up the quota to the trainer's sister, and all the good things were taken up by the husband. Giggles! ”

"Trainer? Forget it. Li Li shook his head slightly, his expression was slightly gloomy, as if there was still a shadow of the tragedy in Bufu.

"It's 、、、 okay, it's all up to the husband." After a little hesitation, Dian Wufang replied softly.

"Sue Sù Xin'er, take good care of the trainer, don't let her be wronged." After speaking, Li Li didn't say much, and walked slowly into the backyard with Dian Wuflaw.
