Chapter 1695: Killing Chickens and Monkeys

Ye Shikai's guards were all elite in the army, and the secret guards were even more composed of cultivators, hundreds of people arrived in the blink of an eye, and those Chu soldiers were so frightened that their legs weakened, and their weapons fell to the ground.

"You people, what are you doing. Ye Shikai scolded loudly, pulled out his sword, and rode a high-headed horse, those Chu soldiers were not stupid, and when they saw this "killing god", they didn't dare to breathe all of a sudden.

"Will ...... General, these people are behaving strangely, and we are worried about ...... I was worried that they were robbers, so I ......"

"You talk nonsense. A man suddenly stood up among those people, stretched out his hand and pointed at these Chu soldiers, "You are obviously taking advantage of the fire to rob, Qin and Chu are fighting, and we and the nearby villagers are displaced, so you come and rob our things." ”

By now, the situation is already obvious, Ye Shikai has seen it with his own eyes and heard it with his own ears, where is this Chu army, it is clearly a ruffian hooligan.

"Yes, general, please be the master for us, these ** people who are passing by are robbing and robbing money, if there is resistance, they will be beaten at least and ...... Kill people directly. An old woman cried.

"General, don't listen to them, we really ...... It's really to get to the bottom of it. ”

"Yes. Ye Shikai scolded coldly, slowly walked in front of the leader of the Chu army, and pointed to the group of people.

"Three or four-year-old kids, do you think they're robbers too? ”

"This ......"

"According to the military law, those who rob the people of their money and property will be punished with fifty sticks, and those who harm the lives of the people will be killed. As soon as Ye Shikai's words fell, the sword in his hand also fell, and the leader of the Chu army fell in a pool of blood and was killed with a sword.

Although Ye Shikai resigned and left the camp, he could not sit idly by and watch this kind of oppression of the people, only by killing them on the spot could the people be angry, and he took 10,000 steps back and said, this is still Ye Shikai's responsibility, after all, he has just left the camp, and this group of sergeants has obviously been doing evil here for a while, in other words, during his command, this kind of behavior has already existed, and he is completely unaware of it.

Seeing that the leading officer was killed, the rest of the soldiers were also trembling, they were terrified to the extreme, and their heads fell to the ground, this is not a joke.

"The rest of you, today I will spare your lives for the time being, and take out all the silver taels you have robbed, if I see you doing evil again, the end will be worse than him. Ye Shikai shouted loudly, and those sergeants immediately took out all the silver taels on their bodies as if they had been pardoned, for fear that Ye Shikai would regret it, so he quickly smeared oil on the soles of his feet and slipped away.

"Folks, take these taels of silver, and they will help you until you find a new place to settle down. Ye Shikai said lightly.

"Thank you, General. ”

"Thank you, General. ”

Everyone knelt on the ground and kowtowed, Ye Shikai hurriedly asked them to get up, frankly speaking, he originally wanted to severely punish those sergeants, and the most unbearable thing for him was to bully the weak and kill innocents indiscriminately, but he only had guards around him, and there was no army with him, so he couldn't "reward" each of them with fifty military sticks, but if they were all killed, it would be a little cruel, so he could only "kill the chickens and make an example", and kill the leader, which played a deterrent role.

"Folks, get up quickly, take these silver taels, and continue on your way. Ye Shikai greeted, the war has displaced countless people, most of the Qin army in Sichuan has little resistance, although it seems to be "cowardly", but at least it has also kept the peace of the people, before Ye Shikai's mind was full of war, but he ignored these "legacy problems" after the war, and now when he comes back, the problem is much more serious than he expected.

Along the way, Ye Shikai relied on the token in his hand to pass unimpeded, and many of the guards at the pass recognized his identity, so naturally they didn't dare to stop him, so it seems that Mi Wen did not give an order to stop him.

Guards battalion.

"Old Ye, you...... What are you doing here. When Shangguan Jian saw the comer, he was stunned at first, and after being shocked, he knelt directly in front of him with a "flutter".

"Lao Ye, yes...... I'm sorry for you. Shangguan Jian slapped him in the face violently.

"Shangguan, what are you doing, stand up quickly. Ye Shikai hurriedly pulled him up from the ground.

"It was I who did not obey your orders, and that day, as soon as the lord came, he invited me to drink, and I had only had a few drinks, and I ...... And he fainted, and when he woke up, he heard...... Hear that those prisoners of war were pitted to death. Shangguan Jian cried and said, scolding while talking, of course, he scolded himself, it can be seen that he blames himself very much, Ye Shikai told him to take good care of these prisoners of war before leaving, no one can move without Ye Shikai's military order.

"It's okay, I don't blame you. Ye Shikai knew the truth of the matter, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes, there must have been anesthetic in that glass of wine, and Mi Wen must have planned everything a long time ago, she knew very well how loyal Shangguan Jian was to Ye Shikai, as long as it was Ye Shikai's order, even if Mi Wen was present, he would do it correctly, if Mi Wen directly ordered the killing of prisoners of war, Shangguan Jian would definitely resist to the death, and even use 40,000 soldiers and horses under his command, so the best way is to numb him, and then order the troops to kill him.

"Lao Ye, why are you back. After calming down, Shangguan Jian also asked curiously.

"To tell you the truth, I'm resigning. ”

"What. Like everyone else, when he heard the news, Shangguan Jian was also taken aback, but he also understood, he understood why Ye Shikai suddenly resigned, it must be because of the fact that Mi Wenkeng killed prisoners of war.

"There's no fuss, I'm not greedy for money, I'm not greedy for power, this position of commander of the Chu army is not what I want, maybe it will be easier after I resign. Ye Shikai continued, "What's more, if you are an unofficial and light, you can go home more to accompany Ling'er, and now that the battle situation is stable, the rest of the things can be handled by the lord himself." ”

Yes, after resigning from the official, you can stay with He Linghan, thinking of this, Ye Shikai's mind flashed with a longing, no official is light, and after this incident, Mi Wen also rarely "softened" to him, and he should be able to have a peaceful life in the future.

"Shangguan, although I am resigning now, you, Mancang, and Wan Qiyuan will remain in the army, and you will take care of each other more in the future, in addition, I plan to arrange Xu Junshi here for you, he is a genius who has passed through the heavens and the earth, and at the critical moment, he can help you. ”

"Don't worry, old Ye. ”

"Okay, I won't say much else, I just resigned, I'm worried that the main guild will regret it, I can't stay here for a long time, and I'm about to leave for Linxiang." ”
