Ji Tang

Chapter 1189 Military Law!

"report"

"General Qi, General Xue, General Su, they are back!"

Ji Song put down the book in his hand, raised his head and said, "Let them stand outside the big tent."

"This"

The soldiers were a little hesitant. After all, these few had a close relationship with the general.

"What? My words have no effect?"

"promise!"

"Wait!"

The soldiers came back quickly, thinking that the general had changed his mind.

"In addition, please invite some generals to come and discuss matters!"

"Yes, General!"

Outside the tent, Xue Wanche looked helpless. He looked at the soldiers and said with a smile, "Can you go and report again? After all, I am also his brother. Where can I put my face standing here? Will I be a human being from now on?"

But the soldiers are even more helpless, thinking that you can't do anything because you know how to lose face now?
But he said: "My general, how can you not know the general's temper? How can you take back what you said? You'd better stand for a while, I have to give the order and say goodbye!"

"Okay, Lao Xue, don't you know who the general is? We did a bad job this time. Not only did we fail to achieve our goal, but we also completely angered the people of Da Shi. Now we will probably have to mobilize troops from Da Shi again. ."

"We have slowed down their attack speed, but we will also welcome more cannibals in the near future. We have a responsibility in this matter. The general will do whatever he says later. Don't make mistakes!"

Xue Wanche was choked to death. Thinking that this incident had ended in an anticlimax, he glared at Xue Li and said angrily: "You are my brother's apprentice. Go tell the general."

"Don't go!"

Xue Li glanced at it without thinking.

"you"

"Hey, isn't this our General Xue? Why are you standing outside? Let's go in and talk to my brother."

Liu Hongji arrived first and found three people standing at the door.In his early years, he and Xue Wanche were eating from the same pot, and they were very familiar with each other.

"Go away, I'm annoyed right now, don't make trouble for yourself!"

Xue Wanche looked depressed. He had won the battle, but now it felt like he had lost the battle. He was willing to let go of anyone!
"Oh, you are still angry? What's wrong with you? You just don't use your brain. This is good. The troops were already stretched thin, and now they are even more difficult to move. What the hell did you do?"

Liu Hongji is a piece of meat, otherwise he would not have been disliked by the emperor for so long.Otherwise, with his merits, he would be able to enter Qilin Pavilion as counselor of military affairs.

"Okay, stop saying a few words!"

Guo Xiaoke also rushed over at this time, glared at Liu Hongji who was making sarcastic remarks, and said with a dark face: "They can't be entirely blamed for this. After all, who would have thought that the big food Seld was so good, after the attack Just launch a general attack on Huolu City immediately and defeat it in a fucking battle?"

After Liu Hongji finished speaking, he turned to Xue Wanche and said: "You too, Xue Li is just young, you and Su Lie are both veterans, why are you still so ignorant of the importance? This means victory, and it means daring to lose troops and lose generals. Look, How do you end it?"

"Disobeying military orders and sending troops without authorization is impulsive at best, and lawless and lawless at worst."

Whoa!
The big tent was opened, and the cavalry came forward and said: "The general has invited some people to come in to discuss matters!"

Xue Wanche was overjoyed when he heard this, but before he could take action, he heard again: "The general has an order. You three continue to stand for me. If you dare to move, you will be beaten to death with sticks!"

Looking at the three people who were dejected for a moment, Cheng Yaojin said with a smile: "You are quite capable. The general has such a good temper and can say things that would kill him with a stick. You are really very capable."

Finally, he looked at Xue Li, slapped him on the back of the head, and cursed with a dark face: "You bastard, don't think you can ignore military orders just because of your teacher. This matter may be big or small, but it looks like you You won’t be able to escape this punishment.”

"Just stay with me, huh, I've read to the point where I'm going to read like a dog, how can I still make such a mistake?"

After saying that, he ignored the three people and turned around and entered the big tent.

Ji Song was still reading. If he looked carefully, he found that it was a book made of unknown animal skin, "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".That’s right, it’s the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

He has been reading this book since he was a child, and found that he has different perceptions every time he reads it. The bizarre mountains and rivers, geography and all kinds of strange animals are really incredible to the imagination of the ancients.

Whenever you are thinking about something and have no clue, you can always find some inspiration by reading this book.So this book has basically never left his side these years. Since his leg became disabled, he had someone make a secret compartment under his wheelchair to store his favorite books for easy viewing at any time!

"All here? Sit down!"

Putting down the books, he took out a piece of brocade silk from the desk, which was full of words.

"This is a letter sent by His Majesty on a falcon."

He looked around and said solemnly: "Everyone, take the order!"

"Wow!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, bowing and saying: "I will accept the order!"

"Since I have been in the imperial court, first the Turks went south, and then natural disasters wreaked havoc. Fortunately, all ministers and workers managed it diligently, with civil servants and pastoral officials guarding the place, and military generals keeping the enemy at bay. Only then can we have the great Tang Dynasty where the people in the country live and work in peace and contentment, and all industries are prosperous. To prosper, there will be good seeds sent from heaven to relieve the food worries. Today is different from the past. Today, our Tang Dynasty has millions of soldiers, tens of millions of people, a full treasury, and food in the mountains and valleys. The big food thieves first messed up the southern border of our Tang Dynasty. , Fortunately, Princess Ji Song of the Nian Kingdom was destroyed, which greatly increased the power of the Tang Dynasty. However, the thieves did not think about their own mistakes and openly provoked a war in Anxi. They sent hundreds of thousands of troops to attack the Tang Dynasty. The law of heaven is clear to me. The Tang Dynasty, as the official residence of China, has the responsibility to lead China to the top of the world. Today, the West is eating up the country's wolfish ambitions, cutting off the Silk Road, and making a lot of ill-gotten wealth."

"I have thought about it for a long time. If the great food country is still interested in spying on China, we, the Central Plains, will never have peace. I give the order."

Ji Song glanced at the crowd and said loudly: "Anyone from all directions who dares to declare war will be killed!"

"Kin this!"

Cheng Yaojin's eyes were red and he roared: "Kill!"

Tang Jian, Guo Xiaoke, Liu Hongji, Gao Kan, Pei Renji and others all shouted: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

For a long time, the place was quiet after the war, but the shouts of killing from the army outside never stopped!

"Everyone!"

Ji Song sat in the wheelchair and put away the imperial edict, looked at everyone solemnly, and said: "Today, Your Majesty has made up his mind, and I will worry about the future. However, the cannibals have learned their lessons in Huolu City, and they have been recruited and repaired. , according to reliable information, Said has sent a letter to Dashi, and it is expected that he will send more troops."

"Generals, generals of the Tang Dynasty, are you ready for a deadly battle?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Hongji said loudly: "We are willing to die for the Tang Dynasty and for Your Majesty!"

"We are willing to die for the Tang Dynasty and for Your Majesty!"

"."

"it is good!"

Ji Song slammed the table and said loudly: "Why should I, a man of the Tang Dynasty, be afraid of fighting to the death? The Tang Dynasty was founded in hundreds of battles. Back then, where are the 36 princes of the Central Plains and the 72 smoke and dust now? Where are the Turks who dominated the grasslands and threatened the Central Plains now?"

"I will once again swear an oath to never break the rule and never return the throne!" Ji Song, as the general, has already sworn an oath, so how can the others fall behind?
I saw everyone cut their palms, wiped a bloody mark on their foreheads, and shouted: "If you don't break the food, you will never return the court!"

"If you don't break the food, you will never return the throne!"

"If you don't break the food, you will never return the throne!"

"."

After everyone calmed down, Ji Song said: "As the saying goes, there is no rule without rules. The cannibal is not a soft persimmon. Although I am confident that I can win the battle, there are some rules that must be informed in advance. If you violate them, If something goes wrong, don’t blame me for not teaching you but killing him!"

"Come here, bring Xue Wanche, Su Lie, and Xue Li in!"

"promise!"

Soon, the three people came to the middle of the big tent. Everyone looked at them with regret, anger, and gloating at their misfortune.But more of them are confused!

Is the general going to use these three people to scare the monkeys?

"I've seen the General!"

Ji Song didn't look at them and said to everyone: "These three people were sent by me to slow down the pace of the cannibals. I made it clear at the beginning that they were not allowed to directly conflict with the cannibals."

boom!
As soon as he slapped the case, everyone's hearts skipped a beat.

Pointing at the three people, he said angrily: "But these three people are good. Not only did they have a conflict, but it also led to the Great Ogre recruiting troops again."

"What else do you three have to say?"

Xue Wanche raised his head and glanced at Ji, but all he saw was ignorance. He sighed secretly in his heart, knelt on the ground on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "Xue Wanche has nothing to say!"

"what about you?"

Finally, he looked at Xue Li and Su Lie.

"We have nothing to say, but it's up to the general to handle it!"

After hearing this, Ji Song nodded and said, "Yes, you are somewhat responsible. If you dare to give even half a reason to deduce it today, your crime will be increased."

"Come on!"

"General!"

Ji Song waved his hand, pointed at the three of them and said: "Xue Wanche is the most important general. He has no independent opinion and violates military orders. He is an unforgivable crime! Pull him out and beat him with a sixty military stick!"

"Xue Li is impulsive, unwise, and as a general, he does not think well, which leads to such a catastrophe. He is removed from the post of Jinwu Guards Zhonglang General, he is promoted to the third level, and he is beaten with thirty army sticks!"

"Su Lie, as a veteran general and the Sima of the Military Law Department, violated military orders and knowingly committed the crime. But in view of his past merits and hard work in Anxi, he was given thirty military sticks and the rest were punished."

"Do you have any objections?"

Ji Song looked at the three of them expressionlessly.

"I will obey the general's orders!"

"Pull out, hit!"

Soon the three of them were pulled outside the tent and took off their clothes. The soldiers all knew them and their relationship with the general, so they were merciful from the beginning!
But the three of them had no intention of being grateful. Xue Wanche said angrily: "What's wrong with your mother-in-law not eating? You only have this little strength?"

The soldiers looked at each other in shock. At this time, Ji Song also came outside the tent. How could he not know what happened when seeing such a situation?
"The previous ones don't count. From now on, I will beat you hard. If anyone dares to be merciful, let's beat him together!"

"promise!"

The soldiers also knew that the general was serious at this time, and they did not dare to show any mercy at this time.

"General, are you a bit heavy-handed? After all, now is the time to employ people. Can you spare them this time and let them redeem themselves on the battlefield?"

Tang Jian couldn't bear it and stepped forward to dissuade him.

"Yes, it's too heavy. If you hit me with these sixty military sticks, I'm afraid you'll have to recuperate for at least a month. Look, General."

Ji Song looked at the petitioners one by one and said expressionlessly: "The state has national laws and the army has military regulations. If everyone can see the military laws, why would I want to command an army?"

He waved his sleeves and said angrily: "No need to say anything!"

Soon, Su Lie and Xue Li finished fighting with their military sticks. Both of them were highly skilled in martial arts and had good physical fitness. Their injuries were not a problem for them.

They endured the pain and knelt down on one knee in front of Ji Song, pleading: "Please have mercy, General. General Xue is old and I am afraid he cannot bear such a heavy punishment. We are young and strong, and we are willing to serve General Xue." be punished!"

"I, Su Lie, am willing too!"

But Xue Wanche, who was being beaten, roared angrily: "No need to plead with him, I can bear it!"

After saying that, he shouted to the executioner: "Grandma, didn't you eat in the morning? Why do you feel like you are tickling grandpa?"

boom! boom! boom!
"General"

Cheng Yaojin also stepped forward and gritted his teeth and said, "Although Xue Wanche is guilty, he still has merit."

"Yes, General."

Ji Song waved his hand to stop everyone from begging for mercy, and said to the two people who were still kneeling on the ground: "Do you regret waiting?"

"No regrets!"

Ji Song nodded and said: "Go, since you have this intention, I will help you. Originally, this matter happened because of you two, and Xue Wanche only suffered for you two. It seems that he is devoted to you. The efforts to protect it were not in vain.”

"Go away, I don't want you to plead for mercy, I can bear it."

But the soldiers didn't care about this, and carried the cursing Xue Wanche down without saying a word, so as not to say anything that shouldn't be said here.

Soon, after the remaining batons were beaten, Ji Song asked someone to take them to rest, and then returned to the big tent.

The remaining people looked at each other in shock, but they also understood the general's determination, which was to use this matter to establish his authority. Even his sworn brothers and the land would be spared. Who would dare to do this again?
But they could see clearly in front of them that it was a real fight, and there was no one left behind.

The generals who were still a little self-restrained or felt that there was someone behind them suddenly restrained themselves.Now I remember that this person is a ruthless person. If something happens, no one will be able to protect them.

This matter spread quickly, and the entire Da Ying suddenly became much more serious.Whether they were on patrol or out to spy on intelligence, or those who were slacking off, they were all very alert, fearing that they would be spotted by the people from the Military Justice Department who were eyeing them.

Let’s talk about who has the greatest benefit at this time.Who else but the Military Justice Department?

The Military Justice Department has not been established for a long time. Although it has authority, it only treats low-level generals and has little influence on middle and high-level officials.But as soon as this happened, everyone suddenly became excited.

Because the general said, military law is military law. Military law and Confucianism, whoever dares to offend will destroy the morale of our military. No matter who it is, they will be dealt with according to military law.

In this way, the soldiers who had been a little slack because of the establishment of Ximen Pass and Bagua City all became energetic, fearing that they would be targeted by the people from the Military Justice Department.
