Chapter Fifty-Six: Playing the Board
Ma Cheng thought that he would be able to make a big noise after speaking, but he knew that the surroundings were quiet, just like what Ma Cheng said was an ordinary thing.
In fact, everyone knows what is going on with Zhang Guozhu's this, the Ming Dynasty army is thin, if you don't let your soldiers make some extra money, who will work for you? Therefore, it has become a common practice to kill good people and take risks, and there have even been cases where the county town was not attacked by the rogues, but was slaughtered by the officials and soldiers who came to the rescue.
But the unspoken * rules are the unspoken * rules, only the light is the unspoken * rules, if you get to the table to see the light, it will not be fun. After all, everyone is an intellectual, and on the surface, they will talk about courtesy, righteousness and honesty, but the army you are in charge of does not pay attention to benevolence and righteousness and kills innocents indiscriminately, what qualifications do you have to be a governor?
Lu Jiude was very happy to hear Ma Cheng say this, this Ma Shiying was very clever, and he was worried that he couldn't find a chance to suppress him, and now he didn't expect his son to send a good opportunity to him.
Lu Jiude smiled: "Lord Chief, what should you do about this matter?" "Lu Jiude just wants to see how Ma Shiying solves it, Ma Cheng is right, you have to clean up Zhang Guozhu, so what prestige do you have to win the hearts of your subordinates? If you want to protect Zhang Guozhu, you have to clean up your son, you must know that disobeying military orders is a big crime to lose your head! See how you Ma Shiying solves it!
Ma Shiying wanted to step forward and kick this rebel to death when he heard Ma Cheng say this, this is good, no matter what he does, he will definitely let Lu Jiude seize the handle, if he wants to save his son, he will owe him a favor, you must know that it is the most difficult to repay the favor in the officialdom. Ma Shiying thought for a long time and couldn't help it, who called Ma Cheng his son? Father and son, flesh and blood, can you watch him lose his head?
Ma Shiying's gloomy face asked, "Zhang Guozhu!" What Ma Cheng said is true? ”
Zhang Guozhu naturally couldn't admit this charge, Zhang Guozhu hurriedly said: "My lord, the last general will have the generals in the army as witnesses, and the knives and guns found from the rogue as physical evidence!" ”
Isn't this nonsense, the generals in the army have all taken the benefits, everyone has a head military merit, so naturally they can't speak for Ma Cheng, as for the knives and guns of the rogue, is there still a lack of knives and guns in the army? Just find a hundred and ten tattered weapons.
Ma Shiying nodded, and then asked the other generals of the Chinese army: "Can you guarantee Zhang Guozhu?" ”
Nonsense, if you don't protect Zhang Guozhu, everyone will lose their heads together, Zhang Guozhu's two generals and three guards looked at each other and knelt down together and said: "The last general is willing to vouch for Lord Zhang, the gang that was exterminated is indeed a rogue!" ”
Ma Cheng saw that these guys were complicit, and scolded angrily: "Dad, they are colluding, and my son also has a certificate!" ”
But Ma Shiying could listen to Ma Cheng, and Ma Shiying scolded with a gloomy face: "Shut up, the army only recognizes military orders and does not recognize father and son!" Now that you are falsely accusing Zhang Guozhu, you have something to say! ”
After Ma Shiying finished speaking, he didn't care about Ma Cheng's grievances, and asked Yue Qijie beside him: "Zixing, according to the fifty-four beheading of Ma Cheng in the army, how should I handle it?" ”
Yue Qijie knew that Ma Shiying would never kill his son, and he would definitely have a back hand, so the old god said: "Back to the general system, Ma Cheng can't enter when he hears the drums, he can't stop hearing the gold, the flag can't be raised, and the flag can't be subdued, this is called a rebellion!" The second is to complain more, anger its main general, do not listen to constraints, and teach it to be difficult to control, this is called building an army! It's a capital offense! ”
Ma Shiying nodded and said, "Where is Yu Hou in the army?" Escort thousands of Ma Cheng down and immediately behead them for public display! ”
Ma Cheng was taken aback when he heard Ma Shiying say this, he thought that he couldn't kill himself, but now it seems that the old man wants to play really.
Ma Cheng hurriedly shouted: "Dad, I'm your son!" You can't kill me! ”
Ma Shiying didn't care how Ma Cheng shouted, and waved his hand to let Yu Hou drag Ma Cheng down for execution.
Of course, Ma Shiying is not really mentally ill and wants to kill his son, but just makes an appearance to Lu Jiude, and someone will naturally come out to intercede for Ma Cheng in the next step.
This person is Zhang Guozhu who was framed by Ma Cheng just now, Zhang Guozhu has also followed Ma Shiying for many years, so he naturally knows about Ma Shiying's play.
Zhang Guozhu knelt down on his knees at this time and shouted: "Lord General, although Ma Cheng should die if he does not obey the military order, but Ma Cheng has just been in the army for less than half a month, and he is not familiar with the laws and regulations in the army, please spare Ma Cheng!" ”
Zhang Guozhu said this, everyone knows what is going on, and these officers of the standard battalion of the Chinese army knelt down one after another and asked Ma Shiying to spare Ma Cheng.
Although Zhang Guozhu interceded for Ma Cheng, his status was too low, and Ma Shiying was not very good at directly sparing Ma Cheng from death, so Ma Shiying was silent.
Everyone is a fox, what is Ma Shiying playing to talk about the door Qing that everyone knows, and the surrounding Henan general Chen Yongfu and Linhuai Town general Liao Guozhong, these general-level generals also stood up to intercede for Ma Cheng.
Finally, Jing Nanbo Huang Degong, who was standing beside Lu Jiude, also stood up and said: "Lord General, although Ma Cheng made a big mistake, after all, he is a young man, we didn't make a mistake when we were young, if we make a mistake and kill it, then can we live until now?" The last general also asked for a favor for Ma Cheng, please spare Ma Cheng! ”
Although Huang Degong is nominally under the management of Ma Shiying, Huang Degong is an earl, and he is a close confidant of Lu Jiude, so his status is very heavy. Ma Shiying heard that Huang Degong also stood up to plead, and pretended to mutter: "Since everyone is interceding for Ma Cheng, the death penalty can be forgiven, but the living crime cannot be escaped!" Drag this guy who disobeys military orders down and beat him for ten boards, and then commit two crimes and punish him in the future! ”
After Ma Shiying finished speaking, he turned around and smiled at Lu Jiude and said, "Lu Jianjun, how do you see the handling of this official?" ”
Lu Jiude said with a smile: "Very good, the Lord of the General System enforces the law impartially, and this official will record this matter, and wait until Huai'an reports to King Fu and knows about it!" ”
Lu Jiude said that Ma Shiying enforced the law impartially, in fact, he was saying that Ma Shiying reversed black and white in order to save his son, although Lao Tzu does not speak now, but you Ma Shiying must know that Lao Tzu is a prisoner, and Lao Tzu will still tell the emperor if he is unhappy.
Ma Shiying knew what Lu Jiude meant, so she bowed down and whispered, "Brother Shuangquan, junior brother write down this favor!" ”
What Lu Jiude wanted was Ma Shiying's words, and after hearing Ma Shiying's softness, he nodded with a smile, turned around and got on the small boat and returned to the big boat.
Originally, he wanted to seek justice for the villagers who died in vain, but when he thought that the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty was dark like this, he was beaten for no reason.
But Ma Cheng only has a hundred soldiers in his hands, what can he do? had to be carried to the front of the army by Yu Hou in the army, and he was taken off his pants to reveal a snow-white big butt * stock, and he was beaten in front of the whole army of 20,000 people.
Of course, Yu Hou in the army is not a fool, the chief system said that he would fight the board, but that can he really fight? If there is really that solid eye that fights according to the orders of the chief system, it is guaranteed that the next day the general system will find an excuse to be transferred to the Huaibei front, so although Ma Cheng's ten boards are blurred with flesh and blood, they are actually some skin injuries, as long as they are raised for three or five days, they will not even leave a scar.
Although the fart * stock is fine, but Ma Cheng's small heart has indeed been hurt, in the later generations Ma Cheng has been edified by the Internet to the Ming Dynasty is not bad, he originally thought that he wanted to do something for the Ming Dynasty in this troubled era, so as to continue the life of the last Han dynasty, but seeing that this dynasty has rotten from top to bottom, Ma Cheng feels that he wants to continue his life for the Ming Dynasty is not wrong.
At the same time, today's events shocked Ma Cheng very much, those ordinary people were cut off their heads for no reason, and they didn't have the slightest ability to resist, which made Ma Cheng a later traveler unacceptable. Although Ma Cheng had seen the record of killing people in the history books of later generations, it was one thing to see it in the book, and it was another thing to see it with his own eyes. When Ma Cheng recalled that the child who was less than a year old was trampled by horses like a toad, and the adults were cut off their heads like chickens, Ma Cheng knew completely what era he had come in.
This is an era without the protection of human rights in later generations, an era when there is no protection of power to be casually cut off, if Ma Cheng does not want to be killed like a chicken, he can only let himself become like them, become an iron-hearted heart like Zhang Guozhu.
Ma Cheng's accusation against Zhang Guozhu today has made him independent of the system, because no one will be with this alternative, if Ma Cheng is not Ma Shiying's son, many generals will definitely kill Ma Cheng afterwards, after all, Ma Cheng's more than 100 people are nothing in the eyes of other generals.
But fortunately, Ma Cheng also has a governor Lao Tzu, so he is free from the crisis of death, but being excluded by others has become inevitable.
More than 100 people in Ma Cheng will be carried by Ma Cheng, who is spanking * stock, and other generals are far away from this alternative. Ma Cheng didn't want to be with them, so he stayed away from the Chinese army camp when he camped at night.
But fortunately, Ma Cheng still has a hundred loyal people by his side, these people are Ma Cheng's absolute descendants, and seeing these loyal soldiers, Ma Cheng felt a little comforted in his heart.
Ma Cheng lay in the tent at night, Gu Changwei prepared the meal and sent it to Ma Cheng, at this time Ma Cheng was full of worries and ate there, Gu Changwei shook his head and put down the food and went out.
Ma Cheng was thinking about what to do in the future, and when he heard someone coming in outside the door, Ma Cheng thought it was Gu Changwei, so he didn't look up and said, "Gu San, I'm not hungry, let me be quiet for a while!" ”
The man didn't stop, but came to Ma Cheng's bed and sat down. Ma Cheng looked up and saw that the person in front of him was his father Ma Shiying.
Ma Shiying lifted the gauze and looked at Ma Cheng's big white fart* stock, and saw that his son was beaten with blurred flesh and blood Ma Shiying was very distressed, sighed and shook his head.
"Cheng'er, there is no way to be a father on that occasion, don't resent being a father!"
Ma Shiying, as a father, naturally didn't want to see his son being beaten, but at that time, he had to send an arrow, if he didn't punish the alternative Ma Cheng, then no one in the army would be able to listen to Ma Shiying's orders.
Ma Cheng snorted when he heard Ma Shiying say this: "Hmph! can exchange his son for the loyalty of the generals in the army, the chief system should be satisfied, as for whether the son dies or not, the chief system master does not have to take it to heart! ”
