28. Military law
Zhou Liang pressed the long sword down, a ghostly smile appeared on his lips, he shook it chunkyly, and a seductive voice sounded. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Your mother and son, do you want to die quickly, or do you want to survive?"
The young woman was born into a wealthy family, and she was already a mother, not a young girl who was new to human affairs. When she heard this, her body shook, and she almost couldn't stand.
She timidly glanced up at the middle-aged man with a sword in front of her, and saw that the two eyes on his shriveled yellow face were revealing a scorching light, just like the green light from the eyes of a hungry wolf when it foraged for food at night, and she knew that this was the precursor of a hungry wolf pounced on food.
In an instant, her heart was full of shame and grievances, and she couldn't wait to scold this man who had ruined her family now, and then let the other party stab herself to death with a sword, leaving a vigorous name of chastity.
But when her words reached her throat, she didn't dare to speak. At this time, the child in her hand also seemed to have a thousand weights, she couldn't help but hold the baby in her arms closer, unconsciously bitten red lips have overflowed with blood, but she is unconscious, her weak body is constantly trembling, can only bite the teeth tightly, so that her heart can settle down.
As if a long time had passed, tears the size of soybeans fell on her beaded embroidered shoes, and the young woman finally spoke out timidly, enduring the grief and shame in her heart.
"I want to live!"
"Bang", hearing the young woman's soft voice, Zhou Liang's long sword was instantly retracted into the sheath, he took a deep look at the young woman's delicate face, and his heart couldn't help but loosen, but then it tightened again.
In fact, he wanted to keep the mother and son, and he also took a big risk.
Although he was a guide sent by Li Ru to Yan Xing and others, and was secretly granted the right to monitor and liaise, but tonight, watching the attack and fight of these "rogues", where can they be at his mercy as before, this is clearly a group of unruly and fierce beasts that choose people to devour.
Especially Yan Xing, who is the leader, when Zhou Liang is with him, he always feels frightened, whether he is instigating him or flattering him, he always has an unfathomable smile, quietly, and noncommittal, always making people hang a heart.
In this matter, Zhou Liang was also nervous, he was undoubtedly giving people a handle by doing so, thinking of Yan Xing's deep and unfathomable eyes, he couldn't help but shudder. He wanted to draw the sword again, but when he raised his eyes and saw the young woman's tearful and mournful weak appearance, pity and desire surged in his heart for a while, and he held the hilt of the sword for a long time, and then slowly let go of his hand, gritted his teeth, and turned to one of his subordinates and said:
"And find a secluded room in the dock fort to settle her mother and son, and let me discuss it after the report!"
After speaking, Zhou Liang resisted the impulse in his heart and turned his eyes away from looking at this delicate young woman. He instructed another of his men to begin to gather and count the contents of the inner chamber at a faster pace, while the commanding subordinate walked out of the inner chamber step by step with the young woman with the baby in her arms.
Listening to the footsteps that gradually moved away, Zhou Liang's heart was never able to settle down, and when he counted the goods, his mental arithmetic also went on business trips one after another, his short and fat body walked around the inner room, and finally stomped his feet, and said to another subordinate:
"You also go outside to guard, don't let people come in here, I'll go talk to Leader Yan first!"
・・・
"Black Tan, what are you doing?"
As soon as Gan Ling, who came over, saw that Ma Lin was still holding two ring knives in his hands, and he was loudly threatening in front of some trembling women and children, he was afraid that Yan Xing would be angry, so he hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the knife from Ma Lin's hand and scolded loudly.
Yan Xing also walked in front of the two of them at this time, he looked at Ma Lin who was pretending to be a voice, and then glanced at the women who were so frightened that they were colorless and disheveled, his face tensed, and said to Ma Lin:
"Tell me, what's the matter with you?"
Ma Lin, who had a black face, had just been snatched away by Gan Ling, and he had already caught a glimpse of Yan Xing's face. He hurriedly changed his teeth and claws, turned into a little salivating and leaned to Yan Xing's side, and said softly:
"Hey, Chief, let's take a step to speak!"
Yan Xing didn't say anything, he directly raised his legs and stepped out first, Ma Lin also hurriedly followed, Gan Ling shook his head, and also followed, Da Niu and Hu Tou glanced at each other, and opened the distance to follow behind.
Yan walked to a secluded corner, stopped, and turned to look at Ma Lin, not angry, but his tone was a little heavier than before.
"Say it!"
"Hehe, Shaojun, don't be angry, I'm not trying to kill innocents indiscriminately, it's really that everyone has been holding back in the army for too long, and they have suffered the anger of those pickled dirty goods in the prisoner camp, this anger is on the body, and I will inevitably vent it, and these prisoners are not honest, don't I just take someone to teach them a lesson!"
"You don't come to this set, what do you want to do with people here, I don't know, I used to give repeated orders in the army, prohibiting soldiers from killing ******* people indiscriminately, you are an old man in the army, you know the law and break the law, I will ask you, how to deal with it according to the law?"
"Shaojun—"
"Shut up! I'll just ask you what to do with it! ”
Ma Lin still wanted to continue to justify his actions, but Yan Xing had already spoken out angrily. Seeing Yan Xing's serious face, Ma Lin immediately swallowed the original words of defense back into his stomach, he drooped his head and didn't dare to speak, and only after a while did he tentatively raise his head again, but Yan Xing was still glaring at him angrily, he immediately lowered his head, and after a while, he said out loud:
"Wherever you go, if you abuse its people and force ** women, this is called a traitorous army, and the offender will be beheaded!"
"Well said, for the sin you committed tonight, I should have pulled you out and beheaded you!"
Yan Xing's anger rose, and the halberd pointed at it and roared. Ma Lin hurriedly lowered his head a little more, not daring to speak, but his eyes glanced at Ganling's side intentionally or unintentionally. Seeing this, Gan Ling next to him hesitated, smiled awkwardly, and had no choice but to step forward and say:
"Shaojun, although he is a little at fault in this matter, the fault is not all in himself, the sons and daughters are thousands of miles away from home, the day is precarious, and people are suffering from indulgence, and some things are better to let go depending on the situation-"
When Yan Xing heard this, he couldn't help but set his eyes on Gan Ling, he interrupted Gan Ling's words, and asked angrily:
"Dharma, I live with you. There is no selfishness in the army, Ah Ling, do you also have to intercede for those who violate military law? ”
Gan Ling sighed and said slowly:
"How dare Ling be like this, it's just that we used to be in the coalition army, and the restraint of the troops was not allowed to **** and indiscriminately killed, all because of the property obtained after the war, the young monarch was absolutely impartial, fair distribution, if the sons and daughters were in need, they could also be used in the female Lu of the military market, but at the moment we were in a situation, the sons and daughters were all resentful, and they were sent out, although they violated the military law, they were treated with human affection, and the mausoleum was stupid——"
Speaking of this, Gan Ling glanced at Yan Xing's face before continuing:
"Ling is stupid - I think that I can't treat him in the usual way!"
