Chapter 43 Severe punishment without loans

The morning of the second day had just ended, but the sun was shining, which did not match the gloomy atmosphere of last night, as if it were just an illusion last night.

On this morning, because a few officials were arguing about the issue of funds, the two of them did not even have time to eat breakfast, so they ordered the servants to buy some pancakes, and ate them while hurrying on the road, which was regarded as satisfying their hunger.

When they arrived at the camp gate, it happened to be just when they arrived, and the two arrived at the school field non-stop.

Xu is Wei Qingxuan and a few people have been grasping it tightly in the past few days, but they really let them basically arrive at the time, and the school field is full of people.

Mu Zijin turned his head and gave Xia Qingchen a look, but Xia Qingchen didn't go to the training platform, turned around and left.

Mu Zijin stepped onto the stage, looked at the staggering soldiers standing under the stage, and glanced at the few commanders with worried faces, and said loudly, "There is nothing else to do today, but I heard that there are so many people who always think that my military regulations are for fun?" ”

When the people below looked at each other, they saw the wolf rider rushing in directly, and after a while, they grabbed a few people and knelt in the front.

The leader scolded, "Mu Zijin! What the hell are you doing! Let go of Lao Tzu, otherwise my father will let you go around without eating! ”

Mu Zijin stood on the stage with his hands in his hands, and he didn't even give him a straight look, "Your father? Lord Cao, the secretary of the ministry? Do you think he can control me? ”

"You are just a small leader from the third grade, but my father is a big official from the first grade!"

"Your father is a first-class official, what does it matter to you?" Mu Zijin raised his eyebrows, "If you want to say that, your father is a first-class official, and my father is still the marquis of this dynasty; As for you, I'm also a third-grade official, what kind of thing are you? ”

That Cao Gongzi choked up, how could he forget about this stubble and fight with Mu Zijin? In addition to the royal family, who can fight others, there are not many princes with different surnames, not to mention that the Mu family also has fiefs.

"Besides, those who join the army, regardless of their background, I can control what your identity was before joining the army, and when you enter the army, you have to lie down for me if you are a tiger! Use your identity outside to run rampant in the army? That's self-defeating! ”

Cao Gongzi's body shook, and he raised his head sharply and shouted, "Mu Zijin! What do you want! ”

Mu Zijin took out one from the order holder on the side and played with it in his hand, "Those who kill people will pay off their debts with their lives, and it is justified!" ”

"You dare to kill me! Do you know who our Cao family is under them? Cao Gongzi panicked.

"Who's under whom? Isn't it your majesty that you are still serving as other people's slaves? Mu Zijin raised his eyebrows.

"I..." Cao Gongzi suddenly retracted his accent, this sentence can't be answered casually.

Cao Gongzi was racking his brains to think about how to escape this catastrophe, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw the Heavenly Wolf riding over ten big knives and standing in front of them in a row.

Xia Qingchen held the eleventh knife, went on stage, and handed it to Mu Zijin.

Mu Zijin took the big knife with his right hand, and walked off the stage with a token in his left hand.

"You continue?" Mu Zijin stood still in front of Cao Gongzi, his eyes cold.

Cao Gongzi was completely panicked, "Mu Zijin, if you dare to kill me, my father will never let you go!" ”

"Hmph." Mu Zijin snorted coldly, inserted the token in his left hand into his waist, and with a wave of his right hand, the head fell to the ground.

Blood instantly stained the ground beneath his feet, and the headless corpse fell.

The usually arrogant and domineering aristocratic sons who were pressed behind Cao Gongzi kowtowed like crazy, and even two of them were directly frightened into incontinence.

Mu Zijin took out the token and threw it into the ground, "Chop!" ”

In an instant, the cold light flickered, and the blood rained all over the sky.

Hugh said that it was the soldiers below, and even Wei Qingxuan and the others who were standing on the stage couldn't stand steadily.

It is not new for many people here to rely on their power and say to those ordinary people that they will kill them, but what they are killing today is not a powerless people.

It's the only son of the official book, and the children and grandchildren of many mansions!

It wasn't until today that they knew that their commander was not at all the kind of character that he had shown before. He didn't care about it a few days ago, it was clearly deliberate.

Mu Zijin sneered secretly, what are you kidding, I haven't seen anything on the battlefield, and the backstage is not hard, are you afraid of these people?

There was chaos in the audience, but Mu Zijin had already gone around and returned to the stage, took down another token, took out the thick military newspaper in his arms, and threw the two things on the ground at the same time, "Punishment!" ”

It was a simple word, but it smashed into the soldiers below like a thunderbolt from the sky.

What else is there not to know? What is written in the military newspaper?

Xia Qingchen pulled out a few supervision teams early, and followed the wolf rider to arrest people one by one according to the copied military report, and those who should be beaten were punished.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of wailing on the school grounds, and thousands of people were beaten with military sticks at the same time, which had never been seen before.

Mu Zijin also ordered people to read aloud the seventeen forbidden laws and fifty-four beheadings around the school grounds, which was said to deepen their impression in the name of beauty.

Mu Zijin did things very quickly, and there was no warning at all before this, so that no one reacted at all that he was going to report the news, and when he came back to his senses, his head fell to the ground, and all those who should be beaten were pressed on the torture bench and beaten with a military stick.

After Mu Zijin gave the order, he went down to the stage, kicked all the heads away, cleared a place, and stood there to supervise the punishment.

Several waves of soldiers came in the middle of the execution, saying that there was someone at the door to intercede, and they all rushed back to Mu Zijin.

It wasn't until the last person's baton was finished that Mu Zijin waved his sleeves, didn't look at the mess under the stage, and went back to the hall.

As soon as the statistics were handed in, the 28 people who led the rebellion were beheaded today, and among these 28 people, some of them were all misbehaving, and there were also those who took the lead in drinking and making trouble in the barracks and disrespected military regulations.

Of these, 1,573 were sentenced to the pole, and 17 others died under the rod.

When the official Shangshu heard the news, he was in a hurry like an ant on the fire, and heard a report that his precious son had fallen to the ground, screamed and fainted.

Not only him, but also those families who later got the news that they died under military law cried and screamed.

Among the forty-five soldiers who died under military law, seventeen of them had people in their families who were above the rank of fifth-rank official, and these dozen or so families made an appointment and ran to Dumu Mansion that night.

As a result, Mu Zijin left ten heavenly wolf riders to watch the house, but he didn't come back, and the gang was blocked.

These officials were so grief-stricken that they sent people to block the door of Mu Mansion, making it clear that they wanted to ask Mu Zijin for an explanation.

On the morning of the second day, Mu Zijin set off directly from the barracks and rushed to the palace gate, and arrived an hour early.

As soon as Emperor Chen stepped into the hall, he felt that the atmosphere was wrong.

"If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat."

As soon as the words fell, the book of the Ministry of Officials came out on the right.

"Your Majesty, the commander of the capital Wei Mu has no way to govern the army, wantonly kills indiscriminately, and kills the guards of the capital, the old minister's dog just offended the commander of Mu, and he was brutally killed, and I hope that Your Majesty will see that the old minister has been working hard for many years and upholding justice for the old minister." I burst into tears when I said this.

From the time this Cao Shangshu came out, Mu Zijin had already guessed what the old man was going to say, but he just glanced at the man's back, and then looked at the wat board honestly.

A member of the Inspectorate flashed out next to him, "Your Majesty, it is unheard of for the new commander of Mu to take on people's lives when he takes office, and the minister implores Your Majesty to punish him severely." ”

At this moment, Gu Yuqing came out of the ranks, "Your Majesty, the minister remembers that a few years ago, Mu Zijin also broke into the county town for the protection of his corporals, saying that Mu Zijin cares about people's lives and does not love soldiers, I'm afraid it's not true." ”

Mu Zijin glanced sideways at Gu Yuqing, and just happened to meet Gu Yuqing, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

It's nice to have a brother.

There were several bitter masters in a row, crying while talking, interrupting Gu Yuqing's maintenance of Mu Zijin, and for a while, there was chaos in the court, and the eyes of all the ministers were focused on Mu Zijin.

Mu Zijin, who was in the center of the turmoil, had no change in his complexion, and stood in place decently.

Emperor Chen sat on the dragon chair and frowned, "Zijin, what is the reason for the matter, you have made it clear." ”

Mu Zijin came out of the ranks, bowed down first, and saluted, "Back to Your Majesty, the minister promulgated the military regulations seven days ago, and ordered his soldiers to study and abide by them." However, within seven days, there were still people who had no military discipline and defied military regulations, so they punished their subordinates in accordance with military regulations and military discipline, and all executions were handled in accordance with military regulations, and there was nothing wrong with them. ”

"Killing soldiers, is there any?"

"Yes! A total of 28 were sentenced to beheading. Mu Zijin replied.

"Twenty-eight? Commander Mu will really shirk his guilt. The one pointed to Mu Zijin, "As far as I know, forty-five soldiers died yesterday!" ”

Mu Zijin turned around and looked at the people, "It is true that the death toll is forty-five, but only twenty-eight were beheaded, and the other seventeen people committed serious crimes and were sentenced to military sticks, but they did not survive." ”

"Heh, didn't make it? Who knows if you ordered someone to do something! "That gave him a flick of his sleeves and raised his head to stare at people.

"Hands and feet? I have no enmity or grudge against them, so why bother? Mu Zijin's anger was a little aroused, but he still endured it, he was most disgusted that someone brought him a hat.

"Who knows if you have any grudges? Besides, as a general, you should cherish your subordinates, but you wantonly kill, do you still know the way of a general? "I don't forgive people at all.

Mu Zijin stepped forward, "Oh? I don't know what to do? Why don't I know that I still need Wenchen to teach military attachΓ©s as generals? ”

"At least I know that my men are like robes, and they cannot be easily damaged. It's better than some generals who don't know how to love hobbies! "It is obvious that the matter has been prepared and specially held accountable today.

Mu Zijin ignored the matter, turned to Emperor Chen, and bowed his hand, "The minister joined the army at the age of thirteen, served in the army for five years, and led the army for five years, so he knows that soldiers are like brothers and sisters. But he also knows that military regulations and military discipline are like the soul of the army, if there is no military discipline and military discipline, the army is not the army, and the general is not a general! ”

"Strong words!" That raised his voice in the matter, "I have been prevaricating with military regulations and military discipline, I think you are clearly deliberately finding fault and wanting to kill these soldiers!" ”

Mu Zijin Huo Ran turned around and stared at the middle of the matter, and the momentum of the general suddenly emanated, "You say I'm prevaricating?" Good! Then I'll tell you one by one! ”

That frightened him back two steps, "You! Do you dare to be presumptuous in front of Your Majesty? ”

Mu Zijin didn't care about this sentence of accountability, and took out a chapter sheet from his sleeve, "Cao Gongzi not only took the lead in drinking and making trouble in the camp, injuring many veterans, but also arrogant outside, wearing the school uniform of the capital guard to lead people to run rampant on the street, raping and killing people's daughters!"

In addition to this, the other 27 soldiers who were sentenced to beheading were all drunk and drunk every night, did not get to the order, did not train, and even took prostitutes. Women enter the camp and do unruly things in the camp!

"Most of the brothers who were sentenced to death under the rod were the brothers of the leaders, and they were punished for their misdeeds and punishment, so they were severely punished!

"Each item has a record here, so that the adults in the matter can you want to take a look?"

At these words, the official Shangshu's face was pale and he couldn't say a word.

Emperor Chen's face sank like water, "Present it!" ”

His own attendant took the chapter table and handed it to Emperor Chen.

Emperor Chen just looked at the first few of them, and he was so angry that he didn't finish reading it at all, and directly threw the chapter below, "Cao Shangshu!" What do you have to say? ”

When the emperor is angry, who can fight against it?

Cao Shangshu trembled and knelt on the ground, not saying a word.

The direction of the wind has changed, and this farce of the early dynasty is almost over here, and it can already be seen who loses and who wins.

"Your Majesty, please see Your Highness King Chen." A sound of proclamation interrupted the atmosphere of the ice cellar in the hall.

"Xuan!"

The courtiers whispered and never asked about political affairs, His Royal Highness King Chen, how did he make an exception today?
