Chapter 427: Military Law

The last grain of sand in the hourglass falls. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Niu Ben's palm was slowly raised, and the sound of the drum, which was like thunder, completely stopped. It's as if no one has ever knocked on it.

Gather the drum to stop!

"Judge!"

"Roll call!"

"If you don't get it, you will be punished with thirty rods!"

Whether it was a soldier kneeling on the ground, or an officer wearing the armor of a lieutenant, they all subconsciously raised their heads and looked at the prisoner who was looking at the roster, his eyes were foggy, as if he was pretending to sleep.

"No!"

Niu Ben nodded without any hesitation and opened the roster in his hand.

Qingyue's voice read aloud.

"Niu Hong!"

"Li Baisui!"

"Liu Dahong!"

"Han Qianshan!"

As more and more people did not answer, Si Tuxing's face became more and more ugly, and the air at the scene suddenly seemed to be stagnant, and there was an indescribable heaviness.

"Liu Laosi!"

"Xue Li!"

"Li Ling!"

"Niu Ben!"

I don't know how long it went, the thick roster became thinner and thinner, not only Si Tuxing's face became ugly, but even the faces of the lieutenants who knelt on the ground also became worried.

There are so many people who have left their posts.

A third of the people on the roster were not there.

Less than a third of them have injuries and have fun outside, but more are paid for nothing.

Of course, this matter was operated by the county lieutenant Niu Hong, but they could also share a lot of benefits from them. Therefore, such a sudden attack by Situ Xing caught them off guard.

Thinking of the possible consequences, everyone's heart is extremely unsettled.

Worry!

Afraid!

Doubt!

Situ Xing sat there quietly, his eyes resting on the roster, but the rest of his eyes caught in everyone's expressions.

However, Situ also saw a trace of disdain in the eyes of some captains.

That's right, disdain!

In their view, there was no difference between the sentence and the previous civilian officials.

There is no way to compare his influence in the army with the deep-rooted Niu Hong,

In the end, he will definitely leave in disgrace.

So, they don't have any worries at all.

"Knock again!"

Situ Xing's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of coldness.

"No!"

Niu Ben nodded heavily, and made a big promise.

The huge brass drum was beaten again.

Rumble!

Rumble!

Rumble!

Dozens of scarlet-eyed, disheveled soldiers crawled out of the tent in some embarrassment and stumbled in front of the Chinese army's tent.

When they saw the neatly dressed people and the grim-faced Si Tu, a trace of confusion rose in their eyes. But before they could react, the Judge Advocate General's officers pounced on them like wolves, pinned them to the ground, and tied their hands with ropes behind their backs.

"This!"

"What's going on?"

"Why do you tie up Lao Tzu?"

Dozens of soldiers were not captured with their hands tied, and took advantage of the carelessness of the military justice department to secretly attack and injure a few people.

They gained a short period of freedom, but they angered Niu Ben and Cao Wuxian and others.

Although these border troops have seen blood, they are all good hands.

But how could they be the opponent of Cao Wushu and the others, and they were knocked down in just a few hits.

For a few of them the most powerful, they are all heavy-handed. The muscles and bones are discounted, and if you don't recuperate for a few months, don't want to get out of bed and move.

The others were very knowledgeable, and one by one they squatted there like quails. Let the men of the Judge Advocate General's Department bind them.

"What should I do?"

Situ Xing looked at the soldiers who were tied up below, his eyes showed a hint of complexity, and he said faintly after a while.

"According to military discipline, it should be punished with sixty rods!"

Niu Ben looked at the soldier who was kneeling on the ground, with his hands behind his back, like a prisoner, and his eyes also showed heartache, and he still said in a cold voice.

"Yes!"

Situ Xing nodded slightly, his eyes showed a thoughtful look, and just when everyone thought that he would be raised high and fall gently, Situ Xing's palm slowly stretched out to the red wooden token placed on the table.

"How is this possible?"

"How dare he really do this?"

"Don't he know the truth that the law does not hold the people accountable?"

"It's just a civil official, what qualifications does he have?"

One by one, the soldiers raised their heads and looked at Si Tu's slow but unusually firm palms, their eyes showing shock and disbelief.

"How dare he!?"

"It's just a stinking Confucian who dares to be so presumptuous!"

"How can it be!"

"How unreasonable!"

This is also the reason why it is difficult for civilian officials to lead military attachés.

Military attachés reject civilian officials from the inside.

They believe that Wenchen is the kind of person who is free from illness and moaning.

There is an essential difference from those of them who fight for their lives on the battlefield.

Situ saw disdain, arrogance, and rebelliousness in everyone's eyes!

But instead of getting angry, he had a hint of joy in his heart.

That's how a soldier should be!

If there is no such blood, that is the greatest sorrow.

"You're not convinced?"

"Do you think that the punishment of this official is too severe?"

Situ Xing's eyes crossed everyone's faces, and after a while, he said lightly:

"Do you think you're all heroes?"

"You have been wounded and bloodied for the sake of your country, so you should be treated preferentially?"

Situ Xing's eyes were like eagle eyes, indescribably sharp, and as if there was a power that pierced people's hearts, and the hearts of those who were staring at him couldn't help but burst. The high head hung down involuntarily, and no one dared to look at him for a while.

"Raise your head!"

"Don't you look down on literati?"

"In your hearts, literati are the kind of rats who only know the wind and snow and take the credit for themselves!"

"Raise your heads, aren't you all heroes?"

"Why doesn't anyone dare to look at me?"

Situ Xing's words were like a sharp knife piercing everyone's hearts, and many of them had courage, raised their heads and stared at Situ Xing with blazing eyes, trying to prove their courage.

But when they and Situ Xing looked at each other, the courage that they had finally inspired disappeared into nothingness in an instant.

Cold!

Cold!

The evil qi in Situ Xing's whole body kept rolling, and his eyes were extremely cold.

Murderous!

A black aura permeated the surroundings, and even the temperature in the air seemed to drop a lot in an instant. Affected by this evil aura, the birds in the air fled in panic.

Situ Xing seemed to have killed the demon king from the sea of corpses and blood. The whole body was shrouded in a kind of black mist.

"Strong!"

"It's so strong!"

"What is the origin of this lord, how can he have such a powerful evil aura!"

The captains hung their heads and had indescribable horror in their eyes. is secretly speculating in my heart.
