Chapter 751: Qin Jin made a heavy hand
Recommend the new book of Ergen [One Thought Eternal ./book/27094/], read the new work of the great god!
Fang Xuan had no good impression of Yang Xingben, thanks to the fact that the latter was the nephew of the traitorous minister Yang Guozhong, and the five gates of the Yang family ended up extremely miserably after the Ma Weipo mutiny. This is Fang Xuan's selfishness in his heart, in fact, it is more out of public intentions, in this era when the gains and losses of the family are far greater than the gains and losses of the imperial court, once the Yang clan returns to power, it will not be a good thing for the imperial court.
Moreover, Yang Xingben did sacrifice 5,000 soldiers of the Shenwu Army in the battle of burning Lao Mapo, and such unscrupulous means made Fang Xuan's bad impression of him take a step further.
"Lao Ma Po annihilated 30,000 elite enemies in a battle, it is true that he was meritorious, but Yang Er first had the crime of deceiving the officials and acting without authorization, and then there were unscrupulous means to kill his comrades at the cost of stealing military merits. If the doctor intends to connive, in the future, all armies will follow suit, and the Shenwu army will not be ......"
"The old minister is reasonable! The merits and mistakes in the matter of Lao Ma Po, Qin will definitely consider it carefully, and he will definitely not tolerate anyone who violates the law!"
Before Fang Xuan's words were finished, Qin Jin took over, and he also knew that Yang Xingben had set a very bad precedent no matter what his intentions were. The battle of Laomapo can be said to be of great importance to the entire battle of Luoyang, and more than 30,000 elite Yin Ziqi were annihilated overnight, which is equivalent to killing more than sixty percent of the elite of the rebels. In other words, what Yin Ziqi has in his hands is already a remnant of the defeated army, even if the strong men sent by Luoyang to conquer, it is difficult to have the strength to return to heaven. Therefore, the merits of this battle are by no means small.
However, if Yang Xingben is tolerated for his crime of deceiving his superiors and acting without authorization because he has made great contributions, it will create an illusion for the Shenwu army that it is okay to move troops without following the orders of the generals, and as long as he has made great contributions, he can be exposed in one go. In this way, the strict discipline of the Shenwu Army will be completely torn open.
When Qin Jin considered these complex issues in the army, he rarely considered which side was right or wrong, and in fact, there was no strict quantitative standard for right and wrong, in the final analysis, they were all judged by their own positions, so he gave priority to only one point, that is, the gains and losses of the interests of the Shenwu Army.
With this as a guideline, it becomes much simpler to deal with Pei Si's lawsuit against Yang Xingben.
"Pei Er, your grievances Qin Mou has already known, Qin Mou can tell you now, he will never let the unjustly deceased die in vain, and he will not let the guilty escape justice!"
When he said this, it was equivalent to making a guarantee, and he would definitely give a reasonable explanation for Yang Xingben's unscrupulous use of Pei Si and the 10,000 soldiers.
Since Qin Jin has given such a sure guarantee, what else can Pei Si say, he felt that his trip was not worthwhile, he was relieved, and he cried excitedly.
A moment later, to the surprise of those present, Pei Si suddenly fell to his knees and said decisively:
"The last general left the barracks without an order, violating the law of fugitives, and he is willing to be punished by the doctor according to law!"
Qin Jin was also surprised, but then he had a better impression of Pei Si.
Based on Qin Jin's analysis, there may be a deeper reason for the contradiction between Yang Xingben and Pei Si, who are in the same army, and the intrigue between different families is also common sense. If there is no fighting, a mass of harmony is a strange thing. In the past, he tried his best to balance the interests of the various families in the Shenwu Army, and this potential struggle was concealed by the illusion of harmony.
Yang Xingben replaced Yang Zhen, who was originally planned to lead the troops, with Pei Si, which is indeed unreasonable, if he has no selfish intentions, the ghost will believe it.
As for Pei Si, before this, Qin Jin didn't think he was worthy of sympathy, the reason why he openly made things public was not because he had the prejudice of family strife in his heart from the beginning?
Therefore, Qin Jin just said that he would not let the guilty escape justice, so naturally Pei Si was included. This crime of leaving the camp without an order is equivalent to that of a fugitive, and according to the law, he can be killed on the spot without trial.
Before Qin Jin pursued, Pei Si was able to take the initiative to stand up and bear the responsibility, at least proving that he was still a more or less responsible person. Qin Jin has never been afraid of people's selfishness, and people's selfishness is human nature, and it is unrealistic to expect everyone to "do their best to do their best and not care about their selfishness". What he cares about is whether the person he uses has the ability and responsibility.
"Qin has never dared to administer justice in the military, so you should go to the Military Justice Department to surrender!"
After Pei Si bowed again, he got up and walked away.
This scene can make Fang Xuan a little stunned, Pei Si obviously came to sue, but in the blink of an eye, he actually pushed himself to the place of no return. No one knows the punishment for dealing with the fugitives, and in the end it is inevitable that they will die, and they can be summarily executed without trial.
In this way, Fang Xuan couldn't help but have a little more admiration for Pei Si, a young man, and would rather die than sue Yang Xingben, just the end of this self-sacrifice, it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to do it. As soon as he thought of this, Fang Xuan subconsciously glanced at Qin Jin, but saw that he was expressionless, and he didn't know what to think about.
"What will the doctor do with Yang Er?"
Yang Xing was the second in his family, and according to the customs of the time, many people were called Yang Er.
Qin Jin smiled indifferently, and when he dealt with this matter, he had nothing to hide from Fang Xuan, so he said bluntly:
"Yang, Pei, and Qin will be punished severely, and they will never be spared!"
Fang Xuan was stunned again, and then asked:
"Pei Si has been wronged, can't he be discretionary?"
Seeing that Qin Jin suddenly sneered, he asked rhetorically:
"Dare to ask Xianggong, what is the purpose of the imperial court's decrees? Heavenly Dao, people's hearts or justice?"
"This ......"
Fang Xuan's words were blocked, this question was too harsh, how did he answer, Qin Jin, who had been in contact with him during this period of time, had always been as gentle as jade, a typical elegant gentleman, but at this time today, his eyes suddenly burst into a bottomless coldness, which made Fang Xuan feel cold in his heart.
Seeing Fang Xuan open his mouth, Qin Jin smiled.
"The prime minister is reluctant to say the words of the heart, Qin came to say for the prime minister, the formulation of the law is definitely not for the sake of any heavenly axioms, in a word, it is nothing more than for the stability and long-term survival of the imperial court! The same is true in the army, if you don't understand the overall situation, and at a critical moment you do something that violates the unity of the army, shouldn't you be punished severely?"
Fang Xuan was silent, as far as the discord between Pei Si and Yang Xingben was concerned, there may not be no possibility of a big deal turning into a small one between the two of them, but Pei Si chose the most drastic means, once Qin Jin dealt with it properly, it would have an unprecedented impact on the Shenwu Army, and the entire Shenwu Army might be seriously torn apart by the family.
If the rebellion has been quelled, now is the critical moment of counterinsurgency, if the Shenwu Army falls into a situation of endless infighting because of the struggle between Pei and Yang, and then makes the great cause of counterinsurgency fall short, can these two people escape from the involvement?
Qin Jin said again:
"Xianggong said that Qin is benevolent, isn't that exactly the reason?"
Fang Xuan felt that he had been completely persuaded by Qin Jin, but he was very curious about how Qin Jin would deal with these two people.
"Does the doctor really want to behead Pei Yang and the others to show the public?"
Qin Jin seemed to have thought of the answer a long time ago, and without half a moment's hesitation, he replied:
"All of them will be beheaded!"
Fang Xuan's heart froze, at this time, he knew how decisive and ruthless Qin Jin was, Pei Yang and the others were by no means ordinary military generals, so if they said that they would kill, they would inevitably face pressure from the family behind them.
Qin Jin made it clear to the outside world that he would not interfere with the law enforcement of the Military Judge Advocate General's Department, and in fact, any major disposition made by the Military Judge Advocate General's Department must be approved by him. And this time, Qin Jin directly summoned the five responsible persons in the Department of Military Justice and instructed them in person.
Pei Si came in the morning covered in blood, and at the same time, the rumors of Pei Yang's discord had also begun to spread, causing a lot of discussion in the army.
Therefore, Qin Jin was also very quick to deal with it, and after noon that day, he ordered the Military Judge Advocate General to announce the results of the disposal.
When the generals in the army were summoned to announce the results of the disposition, and when the public announced that Pei Yang and the two would be beheaded, everyone present was stunned. They only thought that Qin Jin was just a thin mud, and the board was raised high and fell gently, but they didn't expect that it was really moving.
As a result, many people in the army are also in a cold sweat, the most taboo in the army is to act without orders, in the past year, the Shenwu Army has expanded its army on a large scale, and there seem to be signs of loosening military discipline, and now Pei Yang has suddenly appeared The two leading birds, undoubtedly a wake-up call to everyone.
In this state of mind, no one in the audience pleaded for Pei Yang and the others. Because everyone knows that with Qin Jin's style of believing his words and doing what he does, once a decision is made, it is impossible for anyone to make him recover.
But Qin Jin quickly added to the disposal results.
"At the moment of war, the battle will be unfavorable to the overall situation. Therefore, the punishment of Pei Yang and the others must be executed after the rebellion is suppressed. But Qin swears here, this move is by no means intended to be appeased and connived, and if he breaks his promise, he will teach Qin to die without a place to be buried!"
Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't know what to say.
Although Pei Yang and the others saved their lives for the time being, they could have Qin Jin's temperament, and they would definitely do it when they said it, and after the rebellion was quelled in the future, they would inevitably suffer this knife.
“…… Deprived of military positions, white clothes serve in front of the army!"
Before sunset that day, Yang Xingben rushed back to Xin'an with dozens of entourages.
When he appeared in the army, everywhere he passed, there were complicated and strange eyes behind him.
After entering the middle hall, Yang Xingben still looked like he was not shocked.
"The last general, Yang Xingben, visited the doctor!"
Qin Jin nodded.
"Do you have an explanation?"
A simple sentence couldn't be simpler, and he asked directly, and without saying it explicitly, both of them knew what they were referring to.
"The last general is the main general of an army, but he can't protect the army, so that the Shenwu army has an unprecedented crisis, and he is willing to be punished, without explanation!"
