Chapter Seventy-One: The Captive
The advisers around Generalissimo Li are now suffering words. What he said in front of the marshal could not be defended, so he could only command a group of officers and soldiers in the wilderness, trying to dig and see if the underground was suitable for digging tunnels. He instructed his soldiers to dig down three meters, and finally did not see anything he did not want to see. The strategist stepped on the sweat on his forehead with relief, and ordered the soldier with a smile: "Quick! Dig three feet down and take a look. ”
The soldiers who dug the pit are now complaining and babbling, and they are going to die and continue to dig for a while. At this time, a soldier who was holding a shovel asked the soldier with an iron pickaxe next to him: "Brother, tell me what kind of wind this lord is pumping today, leaving the camp alone, and running here to dig a pit and play?" ”
The soldier with the iron pickaxe was already full of opinions, and when someone asked him, he pouted and said, "Who knows, I just heard that this lord has made some idea in front of the marshal, and the marshal has not ordered us to be at his disposal." Looking at this adult's fine skin and tender meat, at first I thought I was going to go into the city for something. Test~! Who knew that he was here to dig a pit, and he was so tired. ”
"Who says it's not, I was gambling with the big guys in the camp, and who knew that I was arrested here. My white silver. The soldier with the shovel now finally knew a little bit of the truth, and immediately sighed.
Another soldier heard them talking and immediately interjected: "You guys are not as miserable as me, I just got a pussy from our general, and I was found here when I was playing, what a fucking resentment." ”
When the two soldiers who were talking about it just now heard the woman, their eyes suddenly glowed green, and they didn't even do the work that was injured, and immediately asked: "Brother, tell me, where are you looking for the girl?" ”
"It's just brother talking about it~~!"
The soldier who interjected smiled mysteriously and said: "This girl is our general's last time, the anti-thief party caught in Chaozhou City, according to our general, there is not only this one, there are hundreds of girls scattered in the hands of the generals, the marshal is the best." ”
"What??" ~~~
The soldiers began to talk about women, and they all threw away their work. The strategist, who had been observing from the pit, saw that the soldiers were talking about women when they stopped doing it, and he immediately shouted angrily: "You idiots, are you here to talk about women now?" Dig fast, dig me quickly~~! ”
The soldiers had already started chatting collectively, and when they heard the shouts of the strategist, they all rolled their eyes and looked at the strategist. Many soldiers who were already messing around smiled at him and said, "My lord, you see that the weather is hot, and we are already tired, so you can let us rest and rest." We'll dig hard in a minute. ”
The mustache of the morale was straight, but he had no choice but to let the soldiers rest. In this way, the soldiers stopped digging and saw that it was about to get dark, but this progress was only one foot in the last three feet. The strategist was so anxious that he had no choice but to order the soldiers: "Light the torches and dig overnight." ”
"What~~?" The soldiers were stunned for a moment, and some began to shout loudly: "My lord, do you want anyone to live, the big guys haven't eaten yet, and now they are digging overnight, I'm afraid that they won't be able to dig half, and the brothers will have to fall half." ”
The strategist looked at these angry soldiers, and suddenly had all his thoughts. Just as he was about to move out of Marshal Li's order, the soldiers had already automatically disbanded and ran away. He could only shout loudly behind the soldiers' buttocks: "You all come back, I have a commander's order, and if you delay the construction period, you will lose your head." ”
The soldier who walked in front of him said without looking back: "If the adult wants to trouble us, go to our general, and it will explain to the adult, and the commander will not let anyone eat, right?" ”
The soldiers had already run away, and the strategists were still chasing after them, but how could he, a scholar, catch up with the soldiers. "Puff~!" One of the strategists fell to the ground after eating, and when he turned over, he saw all the soldiers running into the camp from a distance.
At this time, in the grass on his side, two masked men in short grass-green clothes had already touched his back, and just as the strategist was about to stand up, he suddenly felt the sky spinning, and his eyes were black. When he woke up slowly, he saw a house full of torture instruments, and suddenly he thought in his heart: 'It's over~!' ’
The next day, Generalissimo Li wanted to ask the strategists early in the morning how the progress had been yesterday, and whether the soil under the ground was suitable for digging tunnels. But after waiting for half a day for the recovery of the pro-soldiers, the strategist did not return last night.
Generalissimo Li was very strange, and went to the tent where the strategist lived to investigate, and saw that all the bedding had not been touched, and his clothes were still in the box. Suddenly, Generalissimo Li felt that something was wrong, and immediately the soldiers who were digging a pit with the strategists yesterday asked: "Where did you dig with Mr. Liao yesterday?" ”
One of the more intelligent soldiers immediately felt that something was wrong, so he stood up and knelt down in front of Generalissimo Li and said, "Marshal Qiqi, yesterday Mr. Liao ordered us to go back to the camp for dinner first, and then wait for his summons, but we waited all night and did not see Mr. Liao appear. ”
Generalissimo Li looked at the soldier with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, and his eyes were rolling as he spoke. I always felt that the soldier was not telling the truth, and asked the other soldiers: "Tell me, what happened last night?" ”
The soldiers also knew at this time that things must not be simple, and they all immediately followed the routine of the beginning of the answer: "Yes, Lord Marshal, yesterday as Hou San said, we have been waiting for Mr. Liao to return in the middle of the night without seeing him. ”
The soldiers' words made it unnecessary for Generalissimo Li to ask again, and he waved his hand annoyedly to signal the soldiers to retreat. After the soldiers left, Generalissimo Li immediately ordered his own soldiers to arrive: "Go, control that Hou San for me, and ask them one by one what is going on." ”
The captain immediately asked, "Does the marshal feel that they are lying?" ”
"Yes, they must be lying, I still know a thing or two about what these soldiers do on weekdays, if you want to say that they can wait for Mr. Liao's summons until midnight, unless the sun comes out of the west." Generalissimo Lee affirmed his conjecture.
At this time, the captain of the pro-soldier immediately said: "You will look at our methods and will definitely give you a satisfactory answer." ”
The officers and soldiers are tracking the traces of the strategist Mr. Liao, and the dungeon in the City of Hope is busy interrogating the confession of the strategist Mr. Liao.
The strategist Mr. Liao was worthy of being a model of Confucianism at that time, and he didn't reveal half a word during the interrogation all night, and he kept scolding these people in front of him for being anti-thieves and thieves.
At this time, Li Ren happened to walk to the door of the dungeon, and he heard that it was very lively inside, and he quickly walked inside, and saw a Confucian priest wearing Confucian clothes and his hands tied to a cross-shaped torture rack.
He looked to the side again, and saw Zhang Lei with a tired body still asking the Confucian scholar: "Tell me quickly, what are you digging the pit for?" If you don't say anything, I'll make you happy to death. ”
"You guys~! Hey~~! These ~~haha~ anti-thieves, if you want to come, give me ~~hahaha~~ have a good ~~, oh ~ kill me~~" The Confucian scholar said while laughing at this time, as if he was acting in a soap opera.
Liren said to Zhang Lei at this time: "He didn't call all night? ”
When Zhang Lei heard the voice, he saw that Liren was already by his side, and he immediately stood up and prepared to salute. Rihito pressed him to his seat and said, "No need to get up, I know you're tired all night." ”
"Thank you, Lord." Zhang Lei still saluted Liren in his seat, and then said: "This guy, we have used up all the methods we should have used since last night, but it is like a stone in a toilet, smelly and hard." ”
Liren nodded, and said to the soldier who was being executed: "Okay, don't scratch the soles of his feet anymore, such people will not be effective if you use any criminal law, there is only one thing, they will honestly confess." ”
When the soldier heard Liren's command, he immediately stood up from under the feet of the Confucian scholar and put aside the goose feathers in his hand. Li Ren walked not far in front of the strategist and asked with a smile, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Liao?" ”
The Confucian suddenly stared at a young man in front of him with a seven-point Confucian appearance and a three-point samurai temperament, and said loudly: "You anti-thief, don't want me to say it." ”
"Hehe, you just don't say it, I know your surname is Liao. In the official barracks, everyone calls you Mr. Liao, and you are a celebrity next to Generalissimo Li Zhixiao. After speaking, Rihito did it on the chair brought by the soldier next to him.
The Confucian suddenly thought about it with disbelief, and suddenly he smiled again and said, "You know these things, as long as a soldier in the battalion will know about them, and use them to scare me?" ”
"Mr. misunderstood, I'm not here to scare you, I just want to see what kind of character Mr. Liao Kailiao is who is the first strategist by Li Zhixiao, but I didn't expect to see it today, hey~~! It's better to be famous than to meet. After speaking, Liren shook his head, looking very unscrupulous.
Li Zhixiao couldn't stand this very much, and he immediately roared angrily: "What meeting is not as good as being famous, is this how I Liao Kai can't see people?" You anti-thief, you want to look down on people with dog eyes. ”
Li Ren was happy in his heart, knowing that he had found Liao Kai's weakness, he immediately shook his head and said: "If you want to be Li Zhixiao's first strategist, Mr. must be a talented eight buckets." But the first thing I heard when I came in was that the gentleman was scolding the thief and the thief, is this what the so-called counselor can only say? ”
"Phew~! What are you not anti-thieves, aren't you anti-thieves, and the imperial court will send 200,000 troops to exterminate you? Mr. Liao was very angry that the thief defended himself.
Liren was not angry, sat there steadily, took the tea handed by the guard, took a sip and said, "Good tea, really good tea." After tasting the tea, Li Ren raised his head and looked at Liao Kai and said, "Mr. keeps saying that we are anti-thieves, okay~!" I'll ask you~~~"
