Chapter 225 Kill the chicken to warn the monkey

Huo Shan pointed over there, and asked:
"Who are those people over there? What's the matter?"

It was pitch black, and the governor of Longxi County couldn't see anything clearly, so he turned his head and gestured to the officials behind him with his eyes. After receiving no response, he turned around and saluted:

"I'm going to inquire about it."

Huo Shan waved his hand, the governor of Longxi turned and walked towards the officials, and came back after a while:
"My lord, when the grain was moved, someone stole the army grain, and the rest of the people couldn't see it when they found out, so there was a conflict.

But because of the urgent time, the minister didn't have time to deal with it, so he put all the people involved in the conflict there. "

"Heh, stealing military rations?"

Huo Shan heard Yile, how much can you steal in such a large crowd?There is a fart for one or two.

Huo Shan threw a few grains of rice into his mouth, and then said:

"Let's go and have a look."

Huo Shan walked forward, and a group of people hurriedly followed, while the Longxi County Guard walked, he glared fiercely at Cao, the supervisor under the door.

It's fine if you don't deal with it, but put it here, I'm afraid you want the champion to see it, right?

Huo Shan led the crowd to the front of this group of people, and found that there were quite a lot of people, at a glance, there were about 40 to [-] people.

At this moment, they were all squatting in a mess in the middle, and a dozen or so guards were watching them all around.

Huo Shan looked at them and asked:
"Did you use the knife?"

Behind him, the governor of Longxi quickly replied:
"Never."

Huo Shan nodded, and then said:

"Let's find out, Ben Hou also wants to see who is so courageous to use this Marquis's military rations."

"promise."

The governor of Longxi bowed to answer, and then took a few officials to investigate, and he came back after a while.

Huo Shan was a little surprised, you must have checked too quickly.

"My lord, I have already checked."

"Tell me."

"Hui Junhou, the one who stole the army food was Gu Erhu from Erli City, Zhongbei City, Longxi City. This man is a ranger. He doesn't do production, but makes troubles. He is very hated by the people on weekdays, so he found out as soon as he checked.

But although he doesn't do production, every time he is inspected, the arable land at home has reached the minimum standard, and the crimes are only small ones, and he can only be locked up for a few days before being released.

This time, Tian Zheng and others from Dongcheng happened to bump into him while transporting horses this time, but Gu Erhu didn't know how to repent, and even uttered wild words, which angered Tian Zheng and others, and the two parties sparked a conflict.

The people around couldn't see it, so they stepped forward to help beat Gu Erhu and others. "

Huo Shan nodded lightly, and then asked:
"How many people in total?"

"Hui Junhou, a total of 13 people."

Huo Shan turned his head to look at him, and asked suspiciously:
"A total of 13 people from both sides? How did such a small number of people move the rest of the people?"

The governor of Longxi was a little embarrassed, and his little thoughts were discovered:
"Back to Junhou, the minister will be wrong. There are 13 people on Gu Erhu's side, and seven people on Tian Zheng's side."

Huo Shan was very interested, and asked with a smile:

"Who's winning?"

The governor of Longxi also showed a smile:

"Back to Junhou, Tian Zheng's side won. Originally, Gu Erhu and the others couldn't beat them, and they couldn't beat them even if the common people joined in later."

"The side with fewer people won... What's the point of being unable to fight?"

"Hui Junhou, these two people have always been enemies, no one knows the specific reason, since the minister took office, they have always been enemies.

Tian Zheng and the others are honest men with their own duties, and I speculate that it may be because they can't understand Gu Erhu's style of work.

As for Tian Zheng's side winning, it's because Tian Zheng's side has a man named Wang Fu, who has practiced martial arts since childhood, and has a figure... er, some martial arts. "

The governor of Longxi originally wanted to say that he was tall, but seeing the tigers and soldiers around him, he couldn't say that.

Those who followed Huo Shan were naturally the soldiers who rode heavily on tigers and bees, and in the eyes of the governor of Longxi, none of them were much shorter than Wang Fu.

Qingqi should not be too tall, so a considerable part of them were sent to Huben. When they arrived at Huben, they were naturally the best candidates for heavy cavalry.

Huo Shan thought for a while and said:
"Bring them all here, Ben Hou will have a look."

"promise."

After a while, people were brought over, Tian Zheng's group with fewer people was on Huo Shan's left, and the other group with more people was on Huo Shan's right.

The governor of Longxi had told them about Huo Shan's identity before they came, so they knelt on the ground as soon as they arrived, afraid to speak.

At this time, the common people didn't like to kneel down at every turn, even if Liu Che was face to face, there was no law requiring them to kneel and worship when they met.

Only when they are excited, grateful, fearful, or at special moments, will they kneel involuntarily.

But they just happened to commit a crime, and now the champion Hou, whom he admired in the past, dared not look up.

Huo Shan first looked at Gu Erhu and the others, and asked:
"Tell me, why did you steal the military rations?"

A group of people lay on the ground fearfully and did not dare to speak. Seeing this, the governor of Longxi County began to roll their names:
"Gu Erhu, tell me, report the truth."

Gu Erhu trembled, with cold sweat dripping from his head, he opened his mouth several times tremblingly, so frightened that he couldn't even make a sound.

Everyone waited quietly, and after waiting for a while, Huo Shan became a little impatient, and said:

"Since there is no excuse, let's kill them all!"

"No, no, I said...I said!"

Gu Erhu straightened up, just looked up at Huo Shan, then immediately lowered his head and lay down again, saying intermittently:
"I... my family is short of food, and my mother is starving to death, there is no other way..."

"There is no way to steal food?"

Huo Shan helped him finish the next sentence, Gu Erhu raised his head and nodded repeatedly.

Huo Shan stroked his chin and raised his head, saying:

"I am a big man who governs the country with filial piety. You can be forgiven for stealing food for the sake of your old mother!"

Gu Erhu and the others were overjoyed, but Huo Shan's next sentence pulled them back into the abyss.

"But there is arable land at home, why don't you cultivate it well? Isn't it because of you that the old mother lacks food?"

"I... no, I..."

Huo Shan ignored him, and then asked:

"What you stole is not other rations, but military rations. You are living in the frontier and born and bred. You should know why you are guilty of stealing military rations, right?"

"Champion Hou, spare your life, Champion Hou, spare your life, I won't dare next time, Champion Hou, spare your life..."

Huo Shan looked at the kowtow in front of him, and said indifferently:

"Cut them all!"

Huben Jun drew out his knife and started to move forward. Gu Erhu's eyes widened, and he shouted:

"Champion Marquis, spare me, I can't die, I can't die, I'm the only son in my family, if I die, my Gu family will be extinct, and my mother will starve to death."

Huo Shan snapped his fingers, Hu Ben stopped, Huo Shan looked at him and said:
"You are the only child in the family, and you have an old mother in your family, but there are no soldiers who went to battle to kill the enemy?

If the soldiers died on the battlefield without enough food and strength, wouldn't they be someone's son, someone's husband, someone's father?
If the Qiang people rush into the Han again, will the massacred people of our Han have no relatives?

Today I feel sorry for your old mother and let you go, but tomorrow someone will steal military rations because of your old father?Will someone steal military rations because of the children in the future?
If this continues, what will our soldiers eat?
The soldiers who fought bloody battles for my big man can't get enough to eat. What do you want them to do to defend their home and country?Where did they get the strength to kill the enemy?

If you know today, why should you be in the first place!

If you want to blame, you can only blame you for stealing military rations, if you want to blame, you can only blame me for bumping into my hand today! "

Gu Erhu froze in place after he said some words, although Huo Shan said he wanted to kill the chicken as an example to the monkey, but the chicken should be killed in the first place, and stealing rations is a capital crime.

"cut!"

Huo Shan gave the order, and the soldiers of Huben walked up. With the flashes of cold light, all the crying and shouting disappeared, and the place fell into an eerie silence.

Tian Zheng and the others looked blankly at the corpse and rolling head beside them.

Huo Shan didn't care if he frightened them or not, he continued to shout:
"Tian Qianqiu."

"The minister is here."

Tian Qianqiu walked out with a calm face, and saw the battlefield where tens of thousands of corpses were strewn across, this small scene is nothing, or even a small scene is not considered a small scene.

"Send me an order from the governor of the capital, record the matter to me, send it to the [-]th counties, and order that anyone who dares to steal military rations or withhold military rations should not fall into my hands, otherwise don't blame Ben Hou for being cruel and merciless! "

"promise!"

Huo Shan glanced around, turned around and left, preparing to go back to the camp for dinner and sleep.

But Wang Fu, a foolish and bold man, saw that Huo Shan was going to leave, and immediately became anxious, stood up instantly and shouted:
"Champion Hou, I want to join the Habayashi Army."

But what greeted him in the next moment was not Huo Shan's answer, but the arrows from the crossbow in Hu Ben's hand. Wang Fu's movements were too sudden, and they were conditioned reflexes.

But within this short distance, Wang Fu managed to dodge two arrows, and even held the arrow with his hand. Although the palm of his hand was cut, it was only a small injury.

Huo Shan's attention was attracted, and he happened to see this scene when he turned his head.

He didn't want to care about it at first, there are many people who want to join the Habayashi Army, but it also depends on your ability, and Wang Fu just showed his ability.

Huo Shan turned around and looked at him, at this moment Tian Zheng stood up, pulled Wang Fu to his knees, and said:
"Champion Hou, my brother has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his brain has been trained badly. There is no malice. Don't blame the champion."

Wang Fu shouted with displeasure:
"Tian Zheng, I'm not out of my mind, I really want to join the Habayashi Army."

Tian Zheng immediately glared at him:
"One idiot, thirteen people were killed with a single sentence, which angered the champion. Believe it or not, they killed you too?" '

Huo Shan was very happy. After all, someone wanted to risk being killed to join his Habayashi Army. This is something to be proud of.

Huo Shan tilted his head and said:
"Sun Shang, go try your skills."

"promise."

Sun Shang stretched his arms and wrists and walked forward:
"Boy, get up, let's practice."

Wang Fu stood up excitedly, and Sun Shang rushed up immediately, and then, there was no more.

After less than ten strokes, Wang Fu lay on the ground, covering his waist and eyes with pain all over his face.

As Huo Shan's pro-military general, what can he do if he has no skills?
It doesn't need to be very powerful for a pro-military general to lead troops to fight, but the conditions of force must be top-notch.

After waiting for a while, Sun Shang pulled Wang Fu up who doubted his life, and asked with a smile:

"Boy, how old is this year?"

Wang Fu replied in a daze:
"nineteen!"

Sun Shang smiled, not bad, not bad, so tall and strong at only nineteen.

Sun Shang returned to Huo Shan's side and said:
"My lord, I'm only nineteen. Although I'm a little older, I've trained in the army. I have a good foundation and a good body. I'll train and train, and I'll train for three years with the lord's military training method. I'm fifty years old." Can’t beat him, he’s a good player.”

Huo Shan smiled and nodded:
"Then take it!"

After Huo Shan finished speaking, he turned around and left. Sun Shang looked at the stunned Wang Fu and nodded in satisfaction:
"It's better to be a little stupid to be a personal guard. I'm just too smart to bear so much, alas!"
