Chapter 40: Public Trial (II)

"There is an oracle from the Holy Heavens!"

The ox cart slowly drove through the crowd, and finally stopped under the high platform, and then, the Xuanjia army and the soldiers who escorted Jieli came untied Jieli from the wooden frame on the ox cart.

However, his arms were still bound by ropes, and the ropes on his mouths were still intact, still guarded by two soldiers, standing facing the high platform!

The eldest grandson Wuji on the high platform respectfully held Huang Aya with both hands, until Jieli stood under the high platform and stood facing him, then he unfolded Huang Aya respectfully, and a sonorous voice came from the high platform.

Hearing the first sentence of the eldest grandson Wuji, the few people who were originally sitting on the high platform all stood up one after another, and their demeanor suddenly became the same as that of the eldest grandson Wuji, and they became extremely respectful.

And except for a few people on the high platform, at this moment, with the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, all the people of the Tang Dynasty suddenly straightened their waists and looked at the eldest grandson Wuji on the high platform with a solemn expression.

"As a Turkic khan, Jieli is also a good neighbor and friendly with the Tang Dynasty, and has been friends for generations to benefit the people!" The eldest grandson Wuji unfolded Huang Aya with both hands, stared at Li Er's edict above, and continued on the high platform in a loud voice: "However, Jieli is capricious, repeatedly marching south, burning, killing and looting, and doing all kinds of evil, causing immeasurable losses to the Tang Dynasty. ”

When the eldest grandson Wuji said this, he suddenly raised his head, stared at Jieli below, and his eyes flashed a sharp color, and continued: "Since the Wude period, Jieli has repeatedly invaded the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty has repeatedly tolerated it, and originally wanted Jieli to become a brother and friend, however, Jieli is still difficult to change, and several times he has gone south and invaded the territory of the Tang Dynasty!" ”

Li Er's edict was very long. The eldest grandson Wuji held Huang Aya in both hands and stood on the high platform. From time to time, he glanced at Jieli below. Starting from the Jieli invasion in the Wude years, these years. Every time Jieli invaded, he came one by one.

The edict, since the arrival of the eldest grandson Wuji, has been hidden in the body of the eldest grandson Wuji, until this moment, the trial of Jieli began, and then Li Er's edict was taken out.

And on the high platform, when the eldest grandson Wuji read Li Er's holy edict aloud, he was located on the earthen building opposite the high platform. Zhao Chen was standing on the earthen building, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, listening intently to the war crimes committed by Jieli over the years.

And with the eldest grandson Wuji one by one, all of them were shaken out, and behind each of them, they would be marked, after a war, the number of people who died in the Tang Dynasty, as well as huge losses.

Listening to the words of the eldest grandson Wuji. At this moment, let alone the Tang Dynasty, it is the people of these grassland tribes in front of him, on his cheeks. I couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

Obviously, are a little incredulous all these years. Unknowingly, he invaded Datang so many times!

Not because of that. The oracle deliberately exaggerated the quantity, but because. Over the years, the Turks have attacked the Tang Dynasty so often that some small battles will be easily overlooked.

The voice of the eldest grandson Wuji was still coming from the high platform, just like before, every time he said a battle launched by Jieli, there would be a long list of innocent people who paid for the war.

First, there were thousands of people, and then, the number of people was superimposed little by little, and by the time it was later, the number of people had exceeded tens of thousands, all of them were bloody human lives, and at this time, it turned into a long list of numbers in the mouth of a group of Sun Wuji.

With the reading of the eldest grandson Wuji, there was silence on and off the stage at this time, and the people from various tribes who came to watch showed surprised looks in their eyes.

On the other hand, on the Tang side, almost everyone, listening to the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, their faces became extremely gloomy, and when they looked coldly at Jieli in the audience, there was a flash of murderous intent inside.

"This son of a bitch, it's damn damned!" Zhao Chen's hand clenched the handle of the knife tightly, his eyes looked coldly at Jieli, who was also obviously stupid at this time, he secretly gritted his teeth, and without looking back, he said to Cheng Chu, who had just come back behind him.

Hearing Zhao Chen's murderous words, the corners of Cheng Chumo's mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but say 'hey', and came to Zhao Chen's side silently, looking at the crowd below.

"Therefore, since the beginning of Wude, Jieli, as a Turkic khan, has provoked more than 30 wars!" When the eldest grandson Wuji talked about the future, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Jieli below, and said in a calm tone: "And in these more than 30 wars, the number of casualties among the people of my Tang Dynasty is unknown, which can be described as an unforgivable crime!" ”

"Kill Jieli!"

"Jieli deserves death!"

"Kill Jieli!"

"Kill Jieli!"

"Kill Jieli!"

“……”

At this moment, the Tang soldiers in Dingxiang City are all people who have repeatedly participated in the defense against the Turkic wars, and they have witnessed the killing brought to the Tang Dynasty when the Turks invaded.

And now, with the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, when he said the astonishing number of dead and wounded, it was as if he was on the river of anger, and he forcibly opened a hole, and the anger in the hearts of all the Tang soldiers was vented at once.

Before the words of the eldest grandson Wuji fell, a soldier suddenly raised the knife in his hand, looked at Jieli under the high platform, and roared angrily.

After that, more and more Tang soldiers began to follow the soldier, raised the steel knife in his hand, glared at Jieli in the field, and roared angrily.

And this roar, at first, one after another, and later, when all the Tang soldiers in Dingxiang City roared angrily together, the sound gradually converged into a torrent.

The angry roar covered up all the noise in Dingxiang City, and only the soldiers were left in their ears, banging on the ground one by one, and roaring in anger!

"Kill Jieli!"

"Kill Jieli!"

“……”

And when all the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty roared neatly, the sound converged into a torrent, deafening, and monstrous, making the tribal representatives who came to watch Jieli's trial pale for a while.

"That's the power of anger!" Zhao Chen stood on the tulou, looking at all the places in the city, all the emotional soldiers, feeling the power of anger. He took a slight breath and whispered.

And then. When his gaze turned to the other side. The expression on his face couldn't help but be slightly stunned!

And following Zhao Chen's gaze, he saw that next door to his residence, Empress Xiao, who had not been seen for a long time, was holding Yang Zhengdao in his hand, looking at the high platform from a distance, his lips moving silently.

Although Zhao Chen didn't know lip language, even so, when he saw Empress Xiao's lips from a distance, it was the first time. It was discerned that the silent words were clearly the angry roars of the soldiers at this moment.

"Kill Jieli!" Zhao Chen saw the shape of Empress Xiao's mouth, suddenly took a deep breath, and when his eyes turned to the crowd below, he stood on the earth floor suddenly, used all his strength, and roared angrily.

"Kill Jieli!" As soon as Zhao Chen's roar fell, Cheng Chumo on the side. followed Zhao Chen, waving the steel knife in his hand, aiming at the crowd below, and roaring violently.

"Kill Jieli!"

"Kill Jieli!"

“……”

Zhao Chen's angry roar. The sharp sound came from the tulou, directly penetrating everyone's roar, and everyone in Dingxiang City. They all heard it clearly.

By the time Zhao Chen's roar fell, everyone. Including Li Jing and Li Chengqian and others on the high platform, all the soldiers who were shouting angrily. And the people of those tribes, all raised their heads and looked towards the tulou.

Then, as if in response to Zhao Chen, the roar that had just fallen resounded in Dingxiang City again, and it was more intense and louder than Fang Cai's roar.

And in the roar this time, it was not only the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, but also Li Chengqian on the high platform, his lips were also moving, and his voice was drowned in the roars of the soldiers below.

At this moment, Dingxiang City has been completely drowned in anger, and the people of the tribe, even those who still had an indifferent look on their faces before, at this moment, listening to the neat anger around them, their faces can't help but turn pale.

As a party to Jieli, at this time, listening to this neat roar, his face was even more pale, pale and bloodless, and his hands and feet, which were already bound, trembled in this angry roar.

Several times, it was because of the two soldiers who were holding on, otherwise, they couldn't bear the roar around them and fell to the ground.

The anger continued, and the eldest grandson Wuji on the high platform, at this time, raised his hand to the soldiers who were shouting below, signaling that he could be quiet for a while, and then continued: "Jieli has repeatedly violated the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty is tolerable or unbearable, so the army entered the north and captured Jieli, the culprit, and today it is in this Dingxiang City, and Jieli is sentenced!" ”

Without waiting for the roar below to come again, the eldest grandson Wuji continued: "Based on the crimes committed by Jieli, according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, Jieli is sentenced to deliberately provoke war crimes, and he should be cut in half!"

As soon as the eldest grandson Wuji's words fell, Jieli, who was originally standing under the stage and was shaky, suddenly felt a little unstable, and his legs bent suddenly, and he almost fell down again.

Not only Jieli, but also people from other tribes, after hearing the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, they also raised their heads in shock and looked at the eldest grandson Wuji in disbelief.

It's just that when everyone looked at the eldest grandson Wuji, they listened to the eldest grandson Wuji's words, looked at Jieli below and said: "However, Your Majesty is afraid of the identity of Jieli Turkic Khan, so he canceled the torture of beheading, hanged Jieli, and executed it immediately!" ”

Hanging?

As soon as these words came out, the people below couldn't help but be stunned, and then, when the two soldiers pressed Jieli and walked to the temporary wooden frame on the opposite side of the high platform, everyone looked at the wooden frame, and their eyes suddenly showed a look of enlightenment.

Under everyone's gaze, Jieli was almost dragged onto the wooden platform by two soldiers, and then put a rope sleeve prepared in advance around Jieli's neck.

Seeing that the rope sleeve had been put on Jieli's neck, the eldest grandson Wuji, who was originally standing in front of the high platform, took two steps back at this time and set his eyes on Li Chengqian behind him.

"Execute!" Li Chengqian, who had been sitting there silently since he got on the high platform, did not leave his seat until this time, came to the front with a solemn face, looked at Jieli opposite, and said coldly.

'Boom! Hearing His Royal Highness the Prince's order, a soldier on the side of the platform suddenly raised the steel knife in his hand and slashed a rope in front of him.

And as the rope was cut, a muffled sound was heard, and a wooden plank under Jieli's feet suddenly disappeared with this muffled sound, and the moment the wooden board disappeared, Jieli's whole person fell from the gap at once. (To be continued.) )
