Gan Ning stood up directly from his seat, "Governor, please think twice, the general is an old minister of Eastern Wu, and he can't be killed after three generations."

"Yes, Governor, over the years, the general has no merit, and there is hard work, so I can't chill the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies."

Other generals also stepped forward.

Zhou Yu heard everyone's plea, and he became even more angry.

"Why do you need to say more, if you say these words that disturb the military law, I will not forgive", and then, Zhou Yu asked the left and right generals to beat Gan Ning, who took the lead, out of the mess.

The gun shoots the first bird.

With so many generals pleading, it is impossible for Zhou Yu to repair them all.

Then there is no way but to take Gan Ning first.

"Dudu, kill me immediately, I will also say, General Gongfu can't kill him, Boyun, you speak", at this time, Gan Ning looked at Zhou Rui.

Before Zhou Rui could speak, Gan Ning asked the soldiers to drive out.

At this time, Zhou Rui stood up.

"The Metropolitan Governor, so the law is not merciful, but the law must also be adapted to the times, and you can't blindly follow the law, and the public will punish the general for his crimes, which is true, but now it is in a critical period of breaking Cao.

If you kill the general like this, it will be disadvantageous to the army.

The officers and men of the three armies will also be frightened, and the morale of the army will be discouraged.

Therefore, I asked for forgiveness from the governor and remembered the guilt. After we break Cao, it's not too late to cut it. ”

Hearing Zhou Rui's words, everyone echoed them.

I hope to forgive Huang Gai.

Although Zhou Yu was in "anger", what Zhou Rui said was reasonable.

He also made his way down the steps.

"Hmph", Zhou Yu snorted coldly, "If it weren't for the face of the soldiers this time, I would have beheaded Huang Gai today."

However, capital sins can be avoided, and living sins cannot be escaped.

Although I will not kill him today, I must let him remember it for a long time, and I will see who will dare to talk about surrender in the future, so that he will be dragged down and beaten with a hundred rods to correct his crimes!"

The spine is a form of punishment.

Hitting a prisoner in the back or buttocks with a weapon such as a club.

Sometimes, you can even use this thing to kill someone.

Even the top ten plates will make your flesh blurry.

It is one of the most commonly used punishments.

······

But Huang Gai is different.

Huang Gai is old, and his body bones are not as good as before.

Not to mention a hundred spine battles, even twenty spine battles will not work.

So when everyone heard Zhou Yu's words, they came up again to plead.

This time, Zhou Yu was "angry".

If you don't get angry, you can't do it.

If you don't get angry, it's a bit fake.

"If anyone is pleading, they will not be spared", Zhou Yu directly overturned the table in front of him, and then retreated from the officials.

The people were stunned and did not speak.

"Execution," Zhou Yu ordered again.

At this time, the soldiers did not dare to disobey.

He stripped Huang Gai of his clothes, dragged him to the ground, and began to fight.

These soldiers also deeply felt that Huang Gai was a person, so they didn't dare to make a heavy hand.

In fact, there is also a way in this torture.

Hit lightly and heavily, it all depends on the person who beats.

Li Boyuan's "Living Hell" mentions this matter in the ninth chapter:

From the soap record of the Yamen of Laizhou County, this small board beating people must be practiced in advance.

Some of them were beaten to the point where their skin was broken and bleeding without causing any injuries to their flesh and bones, while others were beaten to death, but their skin was red and swollen, but the inside was seriously injured.

Some people say that whoever practices this method of beating people in advance for soap recording is to use a piece of tofu, put it on the ground, and hit it with a small board, only to make a sound, not to break it; when the beating is finished, the tofu inside is rotten, and the outside is still a whole square piece, and it does not move at all, and this party is the first expert.

Whoever commits a crime, knowing that he is wronged, will not be beaten today, and will not hesitate to spend money on this punishment......

In this way, those who master this superb skill will not only be able to successfully complete the task of flogging the cane, but also be able to enforce the law and profit from it.

According to Shen Jiaben's "Criminal Law Examination and Criminal Punishment Examination Fourteen of the Past Dynasties", the school guards in charge of implementing the court staff in the Ming Dynasty first tied them into two figures with leather, put bricks on one and paper on the outside, and then put clothes on them and let the school guards walk the cane on them. The human figure with the bricks is used to practice the technique of "light on the outside and heavy on the inside", which requires that it can be beaten lightly, and the clothes are not damaged, but the bricks inside must be broken. The human form of wrapping paper is used to practice the technique of "heavy on the outside and light on the inside", which requires that it may seem like it is hit very hard, but the paper wrapped inside cannot be damaged. The walking stick must be at this level to be considered qualified.

Fang Bao's "Miscellaneous Notes in Prison" of the Qing Dynasty once recorded an incident he saw with his own eyes in the prison of the Criminal Department: three prisoners were subjected to the same cane punishment, and in order to suffer less, they all bribed the staff of the cane in advance. One prisoner was given thirty taels of silver, and was slightly wounded to the bone, and was recuperated for a month; the second prisoner was given twice the amount of silver, and only a little flesh was wounded, and he was healed in less than a month; and the third prisoner was given one hundred and eighty taels of silver, and he walked as usual that night after his execution.

And these executioners are proficient in this kind of skill.

Ruthless on the outside and light on the inside.

After beating the fifty canes, I saw that Huang Gai's back was blurred with flesh and blood, and it was very miserable.

Huang Gai is also a good man, and he was stunned and silent.

When everyone saw this, they couldn't bear it and pleaded again.

Zhou Yu was also very uncomfortable.

"Since there are many soldiers pleading, this time I will beat you with fifty sticks first, and the remaining fifty sticks will be beaten again when you are injured, and see if you dare to underestimate me in the future", Zhou Yu snorted coldly.

Wrote down the remaining fifty sticks.

The officials helped Huang Gai up, only to see that Huang Gai's back was beaten to the point that the skin was open and flesh was open, and blood flowed in.

Everyone has helped it back to the village.

After all, Huang Gai's age is old, even if the executioner is merciful, he still makes Huang Gai faint a few times, if the executioner is ruthless, fifty strokes, Huang Gai can be beaten to death.

······

When Gan Ning saw Huang Gai's tragic situation, he was very angry.

So that night, Gan Ning came directly to Zhou Rui's tent.

"Bo Yun, during the day today, why don't you intercede with General Gongfu", Gan Ning questioned Zhou Rui.

"I said Xingba, you have wronged a good person, if it weren't for my intercession, the general would have died", Zhou Rui looked at Gan Ning's angry appearance and couldn't help laughing.

Then, Zhou Rui asked Gan Ning to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.

"I don't drink, the relationship between Gongjin and you is the best, if you can intercede, General Gongfu will not be so miserable, you don't know, General Gongfu fainted several times today."

Zhou Rui heard Gan Ning's words and nodded, "I have already guessed, which is why I didn't go to watch."

It's just a pity that the general is overturned, and the general is high-minded, which is admirable."

Zhou Rui came to the Three Kingdoms World and felt that the ancient human race was indeed different from the current human race.

Ancient human beings sacrificed their lives for righteousness.

Nowadays, human beings have a kind of mercenary meaning, touching porcelain and worshipping money.

It was impossible in this ancient period.

Loyalty is more important than life in the hearts of all people!
