Chapter 115: Interrogation
With Wei Qionglou's order, the soldiers behind him gave way to a passage,
The knights of the Jihu battalion behind the formation slowly urged their horses to come, and they all had long ropes tied to their tails, and the other end of the rope was pulling people.
It is not accurate to use "pull" to describe it, because pulling people away is at least walking, and these people should use "dragging", because they are all dragged to the ground, their stomachs and legs are already bloody and blurred, and several people's intestines have been dragged out, and there is no need to ask, they have already lost their breath.
Lan Ziyi looked at these people, his face was expressionless, he himself felt strange, he had been very criticized for the torture that happened in the prison in the old capital before, but now he was indifferent when he saw this kind of scene, and it was only a month since he went on the expedition, so he had changed so much? Or is it that he has been changing since he entered Beijing, but he just didn't notice it.
"Now is not the time to be cranky." Lan Ziyi reminded himself in his heart.
Then Lan Ziyi asked Wei Qionglou and said:
"What's going on with these guys?"
There was a sneer on the corner of Wei Qionglou's mouth, and he looked at the few people on the ground who were still panting and said:
"Prisoners at the East Gate."
Lan Ziyi asked:
"What does this have to do with you not being able to go up the mountain to protect the horses?"
ζ‘ζ·θ says:
"I heard that there is a war here at the North Gate, and I am worried about your safety, so I urge everyone to come first."
ιqiongζ₯Ό says:
"And the thieves have occupied the eastern slope for a long time, and at this time, the thieves are ready, I am afraid that they will not be able to bargain. And I don't know how many thieves there are. β
Tao Zhuhu continued:
"However, judging from the battle at the east gate, the bandits should have no troops, at least there is no reserve force in the east, and there is no one to meet them after these bandits are defeated."
At this time, Wei Qiong got off the horse, walked to the side of the people who were being dragged and said:
"How to arrange the thieves, just ask a few of them."
Then Wei Qionglou grabbed a person's hair, turned his face over and asked:
"How's it going, have you figured it out? Do you want to talk? β
The lower half of the body of the person who was arrested was already blurred with blood, and the blood was not stopping, and the wound looked painful.
However, this person's bones are hard enough, and he doesn't say anything when he is injured like this, he just gasps, and his two eyes can breathe fire with hatred, and he spat blood on this Wei Qionglou's face, and then silently chanted "The heart has a magic weapon, reincarnated into an immortal, slashing demons and eliminating demons, and ascending to the sky in one step."
Wei Qionglou was surprisingly lifeless after being sprayed with blood, but easily opened the man's hair, stood up and took out a handkerchief to wipe his face clean, and then said casually:
"What I admire most is a good man like you who is not afraid of death."
Then Wei Qionglou raised his head and said to the cavalry who dragged this man:
"Just run around here, don't run too fast, it's convenient to find you later."
The rider nodded, and then urged the horse to speed away.
The man who had just run out and was dragged not far away shouted heartbreakingly, and it seemed that no matter how hard the bones were, there was a time when he could not hold up the torture to extract a confession.
Watching the two of them disappear into the darkness, and hearing the terrible voice, the rest of the thieves trembled with fear.
Wei Qionglou squatted down and grabbed another thief casually, and asked:
"Do you want to be like him?"
The thief was already frightened and incontinent, and hurriedly said:
"The general spares his life! The general spares his life! β
Wei Qionglou then asked:
"Then say what I want to hear."
The thief swallowed and said:
"Heaven will arrange for us to ambush at the east gate......"
Wei Qionglou interrupted the thief and said:
"I already know that."
The thief thought for a moment and said:
"General Heaven's order, let us see the fire as the ......"
This time, Wei Qionglou interrupted the thief and said impatiently:
"I already know that. If you don't say a good thing three times, people's patience is limited. β
Several layers of cold sweat had oozed from the thief's brain, and he rolled his eyes and thought hard, and finally said a word;
"We have 40,000 people!"
This sentence finally aroused Wei Qionglou's interest, and he then asked:
"How many of you are there?"
The thief replied:
"Fifty thousand!"
Hearing this, Lan Ziyi was shocked, and the thieves were not attacking with the whole army.
Wei Qionglou also heard the clue, slapped the thief and asked:
"I'm so deceived when you're a grandfather? You have 100,000 strong, and only 50,000 come to attack the city? β
The thief was already frightened, and was whipped by Wei Qionglou like this, and completely cried, and said loudly to Wei Qionglou:
"General, you have to believe me, what the villain said is true, and there is no lie!"
Wei Qionglou tightly grabbed the thief's hair and said:
"You have 100,000, why only 50,000?"
The thief replied with a cry:
"I don't know why 50,000 villains came, but I heard that Lei Tianjiang advocated a sneak attack on Yuzhou at night, and the king of heaven and other heavenly generals did not allow it, and there was a big quarrel between the two sides.
General Lei Tian said that after the official army reinforcements arrived in Yuzhou, it would be too late without attacking the city, and in the end, he brought 50,000 people to battle. β
There was also a thief on the side who also chimed in:
"That's right, the villain also heard that the king of heaven thinks that the thunder generals are incompetent, and tens of thousands of people in Dangyang can't clean up the demons, oh, no, it's thousands of officials and soldiers."
The rest of the thieves followed suit and said:
"That's it, we really only came with 50,000 people."
Lan Ziyi immediately asked:
"Thunder General?"
There were thieves under the horse and hurriedly replied:
"It's Lei Youdere Tianjun, who was in Dangyang before, and he was the one who led the troops tonight."
Then Lan Ziyi asked the person Wei Qionglou interrogated:
"Listen to what you just meant, this thunder heaven will be at odds with your heavenly king?"
Seeing that the stewards of the officers and soldiers were interested in him, the man felt that he had more money to live, and his face regained a little color, and he replied excitedly:
"Back to the general's words, that's exactly the case."
Lan Ziyi asked:
"Why? Just because I didn't kill me in Dangyang, I was run by your heavenly king? β
The thief Kou heard Lan Ziyi say this, and looked up to see Lan Ziyi, but was held down by Wei Qionglou.
ιqiongζ₯Ό says:
"If you ask you, you will answer, what are you moving blindly?"
When the thief heard Lan Ziyi's words, his face was bloodless again, Lan Ziyi saw it in his eyes, thinking that this person must have participated in the siege of Dangyang last time, and he was scared to find a thief. In this way, the main force of this battle is also the person he brought with him last time.
The thief was held back, and he gasped for a long time before he said:
"General Lei Tianjiang was indeed held accountable by the King of Heaven because Dangyang let go of the official army, but the villains privately thought that there was another reason."
Wei Qionglou listened to a slap in the face and said:
"If you have something to say, just finish it, don't swallow it."
The thief hastened and said:
"Yes, yes, villain."
Then the thief said:
"The king of heaven made an incident in Lingling, and most of them used his own relatives, and most of the heavenly generals and Tiangang were his brothers and nephews, only this Lei Tianjiang was not, he was a foreigner, and he didn't know where he asked for food."
Lan Ziyi asked:
"In that case, how did he get into the position of a heavenly general?"
The thief replied:
"Lei Tian will have the ability to fight, as long as he follows Lei Tian will fight, he will win the battle."
Another thief hurriedly replied:
"Lei Tian will not be greedy, and everything he has won the battle will be distributed to the brothers first."
And the thief said:
"Lei Tian will act fairly, have no selfishness, do not favor his subordinates, and have rules for judging cases."
Another thief rushed to say,
"Lei Tianjiang will also take care of our family, and Lei Tianjiang will be willing to give food to the whole family who came out with us, every day, not hungry."
The thief who was caught by Wei Qionglou also said:
"In private, there are rumors that the Heavenly King wants to get rid of the Lei Tianjiang, and the matter of Dangyang is just an excuse."
Lan Ziyi listened to the words of the thief, and he had a general understanding of this Lei Tianjun in his heart.
The thieves are really a rabble, the army is chaotic into a pot of porridge, and the few who take the lead are corrupt enough, only this Lei Youde reads the big beam.
However, Wei Qionglou obviously didn't have the temperament to listen to these nonsense, he used his strength in his hand and asked this thief:
"Don't get out of the way! I ask you, how many are there at your gates? β
The thief's hands were tied, his legs had become meat paste, and he was pressed by Wei Qionglou, and he replied anxiously:
"Of our 50,000 people, 10,000 are ambushed at the north gate, nearly 40,000 are ambushed at the east gate, the west gate is just a feint, and those who go up the mountain to grab horses are only a few hundred people who can ride horses."
Lan Ziyi was shocked when he heard this, this Lei Youde dared to arrange it like this, he didn't want to attack the city, nor did he want to grab horses, he just planned to annihilate the forbidden army that went out of the city.
Wei Qionglou then asked the thief:
"Why is this arranged?"
The thief said:
"The villain didn't know why, but he just heard that the officials and troops gathered in the army were going to lead the officials and soldiers gathered by the government to the west gate, and take advantage of the chaos to attack the north gate and the east gate.
There were many officers and soldiers in the city, and if they were blocked from entering the city, they would ambush outside the city and encircle and annihilate the officers and soldiers who left the city. β
Lan Ziyi asked:
"Why don't you just attack the city?"
The thief replied:
"There are many officers and soldiers in the city, and the armor is sharp, even if we take advantage of the chaos to fight, we can't get cheap."
Wei Qionglou asked:
"It's just a few people who grabbed the horses, so now that you are defeated, what will happen next?"
Lan Ziyi thought that the thief would not know about this kind of military situation, but he didn't expect the thief to reply:
"The heavenly general arranged, if it was defeated by the official army, retreat to the north, and then gather and withdraw to the camp after regrouping.
The people on the hill would drive the horses back to the camp first. β
Hearing this, everyone was shocked, Wei Qionglou directly punched the thief in the face and scolded:
"Why didn't you say something so important earlier?"
Those thieves were so frightened that they cried when they saw Wei Qionglou make a move, and Lan Ziyi said at this time:
"Forget it, General Wei, we are talking, they have said everything that needs to be said, and let them live."
Wei Qionglou let go of the thief when he heard Lan Ziyi's words, and gave his subordinates a look to let the thief go.
Naturally, the thieves thanked them and were then taken to the city gate and handed over to the forbidden army.
Tao Zhuhu asked Lan Ziyi:
"Wei Hou, what now?"
Lan Ziyi looked to the north and said:
"The camp of thieves is in the west, and the horses must go back from the north.
There are few thieves, and most of them are southerners, and their riding skills are not proficient, so they can't be compared with our Jihu camp athletes. We're going north now and we're going to get the horses back!" β
