Chapter 205: Turmoil
The Fumanlou incident, even if it comes to an end, but the turmoil of this matter has just set off.
Of the eight Mongol soldiers who initially quarreled with Tian Dali, three were killed on the spot, and three others later died of their injuries, and the only two remaining were also half-crippled. In order to subdue Tian Dali, five of the later patrol soldiers were killed and more than 10 were wounded.
Tian Dali was thrown into a prison in the army, and his handcuffs and shackles were triplique, so it could be considered insurance. After finding out what happened, Tian Dali committed three crimes:
1. Kill!
2. Attack Shangguan!
3. Undermining national unity!
Needless to say, homicide is a crime.
Tian Dali accumulated merit in a battle, and was promoted to the post of deputy company commander at this time, but Dalata, who was injured by him, was the commander of the Zhengyin company, and the crime of attacking Shangguan was naturally established.
As for the crime of undermining national unity, it is actually a bit far-fetched. Tian Dali and the tiger and leopard brothers scolded a few words of lowly grassland slaves, and said from the mouths of the two surviving Mongolian soldiers, after the spread and fermentation of people with ulterior motives, the taste has completely changed.
Tian Dali is Wan Yan Kang's playmate since childhood, he is a Han Chinese, and Wan Yan Hu and Wan Yan Leopard are the little princes of the Jin Kingdom. These words came out of their mouths, obviously the nobles of the Han people and Dajin all looked down on us grassland men and didn't treat us as human beings!
There were nearly 20,000 warriors in the White Horse City, of which the Mongol warriors accounted for more than half.
After Xu Daosheng's accident, the first thing he did was to take care of the injured and comfort the families of the deceased. It wasn't until the matter fermented and turned the wind that he realized that the situation was a little out of control.
The cleanest way to do this is, of course, to wipe Tian Dali with a knife and hang other people's heads on the flagpole, so that things can be calmed.
Can Tian Dali kill?
According to the law, it should be beheaded, but can it be cut in the end?
The two brothers, Wanyan Hu and Wanyan Leopard, had just wrapped up their injuries, and ran to Xu Daosheng's house to cry. These two brothers are righteous, saying that Tian Dali is a loyal protector, and if they want to kill Tian Dali, even their two brothers will be beheaded together.
Xu Daosheng finally coaxed these two away, and Wu Shiman and Ma Tie, the old guys, also came. These people said that they came to ask for a cup of tea, and the meaning revealed in and out of the words was that Tian Dali was a tiger general, and this time he made a mistake, and it would be good to turn around and let him wear the guilt and make meritorious service.
Xu Daosheng said that this is a major event in the army, and he will consult the opinions of all the generals in the army before making a decision.
In this way, Wu Shiman and the others were relieved and left.
As soon as Wu Shiman and these people left, the students of the first phase of the Divine Soldiers also took turns to visit the teacher. Everyone's intentions are self-evident, of course, they are pleading for Tian Dali.
Xu Daosheng was very angry, although there were many people who tried to intercede Tian Da, but there were more and more Mongolian warriors from outside the Young Marshal's Mansion who invited Tian Dali to behead him.
For the first time, Xu Daosheng felt that the position of acting city lord was really burning his ass!
In desperation, he arranged several fast horses to go to find Yan Kang to return to the city, while appeasing a group of Mongolian soldiers, saying that the matter would be decided by the young marshal returning to the city, so as to complete Yan Kang's supreme prestige in White Horse City, and persuade everyone to return.
Xu Daosheng told the whole story, and then sighed: "How long have you been away, there is such an accident in the city, Xu is incompetent!" ”
Wan Yankang patted Xu Daosheng's back and said with a smile: "Why did the teacher say this, it is going to rain, my mother is going to get married, we are not immortals, how can we manage anything." Now that I'm back, you can sleep in peace. ”
After that, Wan Yankang shot like electricity, clicked Xu Daosheng's sleeping hole, removed his shoes and socks for him, put him on the bed, and covered him with a quilt.
Xu Daosheng was troubled by this matter for many days, and at this time, even if he put down a big stone in his heart, his brows gradually expanded in his sleep.
Wan Yankang looked at the obvious gray hair on Xu Daosheng's sideburns, his smile was retracted, and his brows furrowed. There is obviously someone behind this incident who is fueling the troubles, but no matter what, Tian Dali's murder has nothing to argue, and he should be beheaded according to the law.
For Wan Yankang, as long as he goes down, he can naturally calm down the negative impact of this matter.
But Tian Dali has been his playmate since childhood, a loyal peerless general, and Tian Xiaowan's elder brother.
How can he do it!
If it is according to the suggestions put forward by Wu Shiman and others, let Tian Dali make meritorious contributions, which is certainly a solution.
With Yan Kang's supreme prestige in the army, it is not difficult to settle this matter with this method.
But Wan Yankang knew that if it was dealt with hastily, this matter would definitely bury a thorn in the hearts of many Mongolian soldiers, a thorn that would affect national unity.
This thorn may seem small, but it may affect the development and growth of White Horse City, and even involve life and death.
A thousand-mile embankment, destroyed in an anthill!
Since the establishment of White Horse City, on the one hand, it has treated its soldiers well, and on the other hand, it has strictly ruled the army, which has made this new army have unimaginable combat effectiveness.
If Wan Yankang is extrajudicial and benevolent as a marshal, although he can save Tian Dali's life, he will destroy the authority of military law that has been erected with great difficulty.
For a while, Wan Yankang was full of thoughts, irritable, and his internal breath was a little surging.
The unconsciously churning of his inner breath woke up Wan Yankang, and he sat cross-legged on the ground, put aside all distracting thoughts, and sat up in silence.
When the morning sun poured into the room, Xu Daosheng woke up from his sleep. He hadn't slept well for a long time, and he was refreshed and stretched a big lazy waist.
"Teacher, are you awake?"
A faint voice came, and Xu Daosheng found Wan Yankang sitting at the small table in the room, holding a teapot and pouring himself a drink.
Xu Daosheng turned over and got out of bed, while wearing shoes and socks, he said angrily: "You are handsome, you don't rest in your room, come to me early in the morning to do something!" ”
Wan Yankang smiled and said nothing, only clapped his palms, and drank: "Breakfast!" ”
There was already a maid waiting outside the door, and when she heard the shout of the handsome, the maid hurriedly brought hot porridge and a few side dishes into the house, set up the dishes and chopsticks, and bowed and left the room.
Wan Yankang pulled Xu Daosheng to sit down, spooned two bowls of hot porridge, stretched out his hand and said, "Teacher, drink porridge first." ”
Xu Daosheng wiped his face and said with some doubts: "I haven't washed yet." ”
Wan Yankang shouted again: "Come in with washing water." ”
There was an answer outside the door, and Wan Yankang smiled: "It doesn't matter if you drink porridge first, and then wash your face." ”
Xu Daosheng has been worried for several days, his appetite is extremely poor, and he didn't eat at all last night. This night, he slept very soundly, and his stomach was indeed empty, so after listening to Yan Kang's words, he no longer paid attention to it, and took a bowl and drank porridge.
After breakfast, the maid had already brought the washing water, Xu Daosheng washed his face, completely refreshed, he remembered the matter, sat opposite Wan Yankang, and said slowly: "Tian Dali, you have a plan, if there is a difficulty, you might as well let Xu be this wicked person......
Xu Daosheng thought about it, no matter how this matter was resolved, it would always be extremely difficult. If Wan Yankang has an idea and implements his will to be this wicked person, no matter which party is dissatisfied, after the fact that Wan Yankang, the boss, can come forward again, and he can still try to reconcile.
Wan Yankang nodded, shook his head again, and then said: "I have an idea, Mr. doesn't need to worry, and follow me to the big tent in the army!" ”
With that, he stood up, took a big stride, and walked out.
When Yan Kang entered the big tent, Wu Shiman and other generals above the company commander had already been ordered to wait on both sides of the tent. After Yan Kang lifted the curtain and stepped into the military tent, everyone knelt on one knee: "See the young marshal!" ”
After Yan Kang walked to the front of the seat in three or two steps, stretched out his hand and said, "Everyone, please get up!" ”
Everyone rose up in response, Wan Yankang glanced around, and said slowly: "Ben Shuai has returned from the letter, and he is doing something for Tian Dali, I don't know what you have to say?" ”
As soon as the words fell, Wu Shiman jumped out and arched his hand to Wan Yankang: "Handsome, Tian Dali, this kid, has done a foolish thing and violated military law. But as the saying goes, the three armies are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find. Tian Dali's martial arts are outstanding, he is a tiger general who is difficult to find in the world, the big guys are obvious to all, this time I will spare him and let him make meritorious contributions! ”
Wan Yankang snorted, noncommittal.
Wu Shiman had just returned to the team, and Ma Tie stood up again: "Marshal, there is a reason for this incident, and it is not Tian Dali who took the initiative to provoke the incident. ”
Wan Yankang nodded and said, "I know." ”
Then most of the civil and military officials stood up and said the last two sentences, but they were all for Tian Dali to open his eyes and ask for him to be guilty of meritorious service.
Most of the people had already expressed their attitudes, only a few people did not speak, and they were suddenly a little cold, Wan Yankang looked at the third person on the left, and asked: "Gongsun Tongju, what do you think of this matter?" ”
Gongsun Yu was originally a general judge of the Gyeongju government, and he was brave enough to do things, and he was a rare disciple of the Legalists. Wan Yankang transferred him to White Horse City to formulate various laws and military regulations in the city, and served as the chief military judge of White Horse City.
When Gongsun Yu heard this, he bowed to Wan Yankang first, and said solemnly: "Marshal, the law cannot be wasted." ”
With that, he retreated into the queue.
As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent for a moment, and Wu Shiman shouted: "Gongsun Yu, what do you mean?" ”
Wan Yan Kangqing shouted: "Shut up!" ”
Wu Shiman retracted, but when he looked at Gongsun Yu, his eyes were full of anger.
After Yan Kang didn't care about him anymore, he swept everyone again, and saw that no one took the initiative to come out to express his position, so he said, "Vice Marshal Ye, what do you think?" ”
At this time, the officers in the big tent were divided into civil and military forces, with Ye Siming as the military general on the right and Xu Daosheng as the first civil official on the left.
Since Ye Siming entered the account, he has been looking at his nose and nose, as if he was closing his eyes and recuperating. At this time, he was named by Wan Yankang, he opened his eyes slightly, paused slightly, and shook his head lightly: "Ye has no idea, it is all up to the handsome." ”
Ye Siming was reluctant to express his position, but Wan Yankang knew that sometimes not expressing his position was a kind of statement. For Ye Siming, Tian Dali is also his student, and it is normal to come forward to defend this guy at this time, just like Wu Shiman and others.
Unlike Wu Shiman and others, Ye Siming is a Mongolian, and after this incident, the dead and wounded have his soldiers, and in recent days, the steppe warriors have frequently asked to see him, asking him, the deputy marshal, to call the shots for the deceased.
Help Tian Dali, I'm sorry for the Mongolian compatriots.
But if you want him to ask him to cut Tian Dali, Ye Siming can't say anything.
Wan Yankang glanced at Ye Siming deeply, sighed secretly, and then said loudly.
"Blow the trumpet, assemble the whole army!"
