Li Zicheng left the barracks and rushed to the official office on foot, at this time it was already dawn, and after tossing all night, he did not feel tired at all, but faintly felt a trace of happiness, his own era is finally coming.

Li Guo looked even more excited than Li Zicheng, although his eyes were full of red threads, there was no trace of anxiety on his face, and when he saw Li Zicheng, he hurriedly greeted him, "My lord, these dog thieves are waiting in the official office, will they be interrogated now?" ”

"How's their mood?" Li Zicheng said lightly.

"What emotions can they have, let them stop talking, no one dares to speak," Li Guo looked excited, directly gave the official office a contemptuous look, bowed close to Li Zicheng and asked, "Do you want to interrogate in person?" ”

"Well, let's take a look first!" Li Zicheng walked into the official office, and when he saw a row kneeling on the ground, he was taken aback, I don't know how long these usually quite delicate officers have been kneeling, he sat down on the main seat in the middle with a golden sword, and looked down at these officers who are usually high.

These officers may have been kneeling for too long, leaning one by one, and when they saw Li Zicheng and knew that the main master was coming, their spirits were shocked, and even their bodies were much more upright, just like elementary school students who were plagiarizing their homework and were suddenly caught by the teacher.

"Zicheng, you're finally here!" Liang Wencheng came from the corner and stood beside Li Zicheng, it seemed that he had been treated completely differently, his words attracted the eyes of all the captives, envy, jealousy, hatred, all kinds of eyes.

"Lord Liang, sit!" Li Zicheng wanted to give up his main position, where did Liang Wencheng agree, pulled and pulled, and finally sat on Li Zicheng's right, and Li Guo also sat on Li Zicheng's left side.

He Xiaomi served tea to the three of them, then stepped aside, waiting for the three adults from afar.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I think you should know what happened in Xining," Li Zicheng's words smashed into the hearts of every captive, and the official office suddenly fell into silence, and even the sound of heavy breathing just now was stifled.

What should come will always come.

"It's been so long, you should all have your own ideas," Li Zicheng continued: "Now, I only have one sentence to ask you, if you are willing to follow me, kneel to the right, and if you don't want to follow me, you can stay put." "Soldiers, they should have backbone, Li Zicheng doesn't plan to waste too much time on these soft bones, they are not as important as Wu Shaoling after all.

To do it, or not to do it, the officers really don't have enough mental preparation.

They lack understanding of Li Zicheng and have many questions in their hearts, such as, why did Li Zicheng attack Xining City? Will he run away after grabbing a vote like the mutinies in other places? and how to deal with the army of Ganzhou and even the imperial court, and so on.

Everyone is faced with a choice, Li Zicheng does not need them to say the reason, nor does he give them any answers they want, their choice can only be one word, or two, expressed in body language.

Whether the future is flat or muddy, they don't know, and they don't even know where Li Zicheng wants to take them, but in front of them, they must first jump over it, and then they can have a future.

If they could not jump over the ravines in front of them, they could only fall off the cliff and fall to pieces, and Li Zicheng dared to attack Xining City, and he may not dare to slaughter the officers of Xining en masse.

"It seems that you haven't made a choice yet, or you don't want to follow me," a faint smile overflowed on Li Zicheng's face, "In that case, there is no need to waste food to feed you, Shuangxi, drag them out and cut them down!" ”

"Li Qianhu ......"

"Adult ......"

Li Zicheng turned his face when he said it, which made these officers at a loss for a while, so at this time, He Xiaomi quickly walked into the official office, put his ear to Li Zicheng, and whispered a few words.

"Let them in!" Li Zicheng smiled slightly, and just wanted to take a nap, someone brought a pillow.

"Your Excellency." Liu Yunshui was like a black tower, hurriedly broke into the official office, bowed his head and bowed, followed by a person, but his hands and feet were tied.

"Yunshui, it's hard work, get up and talk back." Li Zicheng looked ahead, but never looked at the bound person.

"Yes, my lord," Liu Yunshui got up and pushed the captive man in front of him, "My lord, this Xie Guangze actually fled without permission, and he was ready to go to Ganzhou to inform, fortunately, my lord was thoughtful, Xie Guangze was tied up by his subordinates as soon as he left the city gate." ”

"My lord, my subordinates are confused for a while, please be gracious!" Xie Guang made a "poof", knelt crisply, his head knocked on the ground with a "knock knock", and a faint bloodshot was oozing from his forehead.

"I knew today, why bother at the beginning", Li Zicheng seemed to think of a very familiar line, but "If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse", it seems more appropriate to use it on Xie Guangze, what he did was a rebellion, Xie Guangze did not take advantage of the chaos to fight against the water, but just escaped from trouble, and wanted to save his future and net worth, there should be nothing wrong with it.

Li Zicheng wants to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, and secondly, he wants to let all the soldiers understand that betrayal has only one end, so he can only grieve Xie Guangze, "One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither", which really makes some sense.

"Xie Baihu, I remember you once said that as long as Lord Ben needs it, go in the water and in the fire, yes or no?"

"Yes, as long as the adults give their subordinates a chance, the subordinates will definitely be guilty of meritorious service!" Xie Guangze's head knocked louder, and the bloodshot on his forehead gradually turned into bloodstains.

"That's good," Li Zicheng looked at Xie Guangze with a smile, "Lord Ben wants to borrow your head, before you died, you finally made a contribution to Lord Ben, rest assured, there will be your name in the merit book, but no one has received this reward," and said to Liu Yunshui: "Drag it down and cut it!" ”

"My lord, my lord, my subordinates know that ...... wrong"

Li Zicheng was quite disdainful, "You're right, it's Lord Ben's fault - Lord Ben shouldn't listen to your rhetoric, although your escape has no substantial impact on Lord Ben, but Lord Ben can't rub sand in his eyes, you ...... Accept your fate! ”

Liu Yunshui grabbed Xie Guangze's arm, and dragged him out regardless of his hoarseness.

Xie Guangze's voice echoed in the official office for a long time, and the officers kneeling on the ground all changed color, and their faces lost their blood color in an instant, like a blank piece of paper, quiet, terrifying, killing, and bloody, shrouded in everyone's heart.

After a while, Liu Yunshui returned to the official office, carrying Xie Guangze's hair in his hand, and the broken neck at the lower end of the head was dripping with red blood, spilling several blood paths all the way from outside the official office, he raised Xie Guangze's head, inadvertently walked in front of everyone, and signaled to Li Zicheng: "My lord, the dog thief has been beheaded, this is the dog thief's dog head." ”

"Yunshui, brothers have worked hard, go down to eat something first, work all night, rest for two hours first!"

"Yes, sir!" Liu Yunshui carried Xie Guangze's head, turned around and strode towards the outside of the official office, and before going out, he glanced at the officer kneeling on the ground, bared his teeth, snorted lightly, and walked away.

"Hmm," Li Zicheng coughed, "I'll give you another chance, I believe you have made the right choice." ”

Knees moved, clothes were in the wind, in a hurry, the crowd collectively turned right, these officers, who had almost never seen blood, had long been frightened by Li Zicheng's momentum and Liu Yunshui's cold blood to pee their pants, and the official office diffused a faint smell of urine#.

Li Zicheng counted, there were a total of nine people kneeling, even the commander Zhao Feng was there, the officers should be more than these people, I don't know if the captured soldiers cut a few, among the nine people, eight people have already knelt to the right side, only one person knelt alone in place, raised his head and chest, and did not move at all.

"Take these people down first, eat them first, and imprison them."

"Yes, sir." Ma Youshui commanded the pro-soldiers, and drove out these officers with their own intentions one by one, they verbally submitted to Li Zicheng, and the pro-soldiers did not embarrass them too much, only those who fell behind would be kicked a few times in the ass.

Li Zicheng was curious about the rest of the people, could it be that Xiningwei still has a tough guy who is not afraid of death? "You, like me, are both warriors who don't read the books of sages, so why don't you surrender to me?"

"Although a certain person does not read poetry and books, but since he was a child, he has been taught by the master, and he will have the heart of supporting justice and serving the country loyally, which has not yet been extinguished, and now Xining has been lost, and he can only die to apologize to the court." The man bowed his head slightly, and there were several clear new marks on the lower edge of his neck, apparently from the hands of the soldier during capture.

"Death to apologize? Haha, this is the funniest thing Lord Ben has ever heard tonight," Li Zicheng almost applauded, "Who are you?" What is your current job? ”

"Why should a dying man be named? Why bother? The man raised his head again, but he looked sideways, and didn't look at Li Zicheng again, "Which is right and which is wrong, justice is in the hearts of the people!" ”

Liang Wencheng said in a low voice: "This person's name is Feng Keng, and he is now the fourth grade of Xining Weizheng. ”

Li Zicheng nodded slightly, and suddenly said in a loud voice: "Justice? Then let me ask you, when a soldier is paid less than half a cent, and he fights hungry, where is justice? They went out to fight for the country, but after the casualties, there was no pension, and their families had no livelihood, where was the justice at that time? Ganzhou Counselor Kingdom, named to ask for half of the salary, where is the justice? Xining was originally a place where the imperial court tamed horses, but now it has to buy horses to deal with the imperial court, where is the justice? ”

Feng Keng was speechless for a while, thought for a moment, and said: "A certain is a pacification, only responsible for the military discipline of soldiers, and such matters are not a certain position." ”

It turned out to be a stubborn donkey, anyway, I can't sleep when I go back now, it's better to fight a few mouthfuls to relieve boredom, Li Zicheng sneered: "Then let me ask you, since you are in charge of military discipline, the soldier went to the battlefield, did not respect the order, and fled when he saw the Mongolian cavalry. I wonder how many soldiers Lord Feng killed? ”

"This ......" Feng Keng was speechless, and said half-loudly: "The soldiers lack food and clothing, lack of fighting spirit, and they can't complain about the soldiers, although it violates military discipline, it is reasonable and tolerable!" ”
