In the midst of the staggering, everyone mostly raised their bowls to drink, but in the face of the sumptuous dishes on the wine table made of a few broken wooden boards, they all lost their appetite. Although these things were much better than the food in the army, everyone began to miss the rough food in the army. Looking at it, Zheng Tong suddenly put down the wine bowl and began to let out a sad voice. As if it was an infection, Wang Chuan and Yang Tao also cried with him. Only Chu Wei was holding the wine bowl on the side, frowning silently and drinking bowl after bowl.

Li Yanzhi looked at Chu Wei with some appreciative and said, "If Chu Sima is fortunate to be a general, he will definitely be able to achieve a career." It's just that...... It's a pity...... Alas, it's a pity. ”

Chu Wei listened to the words of approval that came out of Li Yanzhi's mouth, and his expression became very sad, he filled the wine bowl again, sighed and said: "Originally, Chu should have followed Gao Sima to Jincheng to help...... It's just that...... Alas, the number of lives is like this, and he is greedy and greedy, and he can't complain about others. ”

Everyone was crying, eating and drinking unwillingly, Li Yanzhi has always been clumsy in words, especially when they are separated, he doesn't know how to speak to comfort these subordinates who are about to be sent to the execution ground by him. He could only raise his glass again and again, fulfilling his promise to drink a farewell drink with these subordinates.

I don't know how long it took, several people in the banquet were already intoxicated, and the wine jar sent by Cui Yang and the servants was also crooked on the ground of this cell, Li Yanzhi got up and asked Cui Yang, who was on duty outside the cell door: "What time is it?" ”

Cui Yang clenched his fists and said, "My subordinates will go and see it immediately!" With that, he turned and ran out of the dungeon. After a while, he turned back from the outside and told Li Yanzhi: "Sima, it's the beginning of the time. ”

Li Yanzhi nodded and said, "You go and summon Liu Jiwu and them, take these prisoners out, and prepare to escort them to the camp." He didn't say the word "beheaded", but everyone knew that the fate of these men was not far off.

After a while, Liu Jiwu led Tao Heng and a dozen of his soldiers to follow Cui Yang into the dungeon. However, after seeing Li Yanzhi who was guarding the prison, they all hurried over, and then Cui Yang opened the prison door, and these generals rushed in, and then two people each set up a prisoner and dragged them out of the prison door......

Li Yanzhi was in prison, looking at the figures of those prisoners being dragged out of the prison one by one, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly. It wasn't until all four of them were dragged out of the prison that Tao Heng invited Li Yanzhi out of the prison door, and then closed the door of the empty cell.

Li Yanzhi walked out of the dungeon with Tao Heng's subordinates. A roster of detainees was then taken from the warden's room, indicating the time when the four men were taken out of the cell and the reason for the execution. The jailer looked at the four people who were dragged out, and he also shook his head secretly in his heart.

Seeing that the four of them were like a puddle of mud, and the soldiers beside them couldn't stand it, Li Yanzhi asked Liu Jiwu to go to the back of the dungeon again and dragged out four prisoner cars. The carts had apparently not been used for a long time, and the wooden bodies were already beginning to decay, and mushrooms had even grown on the wooden bars used to keep prisoners moving.

The soldiers hurriedly cleaned up the prisoner carts, and then loaded the four men into the prisoner carts, and then several people pushed a prisoner cart out of the county prison gate and headed for the main camp.

Four prisoner carts suddenly appeared on the street, and the people on the side of the road watched one after another, and there was a lot of discussion among the crowd, and even people recognized the prisoners in the prisoner carts, and said in astonishment: "Look, isn't that the second eldest of the Wang family in the east of the city?" Although the prisoners on the prisoner car drank a lot of alcohol, they were still conscious at this time, and when they heard these discussions on the side, they all wanted to break into the cracks in the ground, and they felt very uncomfortable in their hearts.

In the eyes of Li Yanzhi and the others, it was only a quarter of an hour, but the prisoners in the prisoner car felt that it was a long day, and after the four prisoner cars finally arrived outside the gate of the camp. The guards guarding the camp gate were all surprised when they saw the four prisoner carts heading straight towards the camp, until the prisoner carts got closer and closer, and finally some of the guards recognized the prisoners in the four prisoner carts through familiar faces. It was all sighing for a while.

Li Yanzhi walked to the camp gate and brushed his face, and the guards guarding the camp gate opened the camp gate one after another, and the four prisoner carts and Liu Jiwu and Tao Heng, who escorted the prisoner carts, followed the soldiers who escorted the prisoner carts into the camp. Li Yanzhi ordered the prisoner cart to be pushed to the point of the general platform, and then the four people were released from the prisoner cart, and the soldiers did so one by one. Li Yanzhi went to the house to find Zhou Xing and told him about it.

Since these people were arrested that day, Zhou Xing had basically foreseen their end. At this time, when he heard that Li Yanzhi said that today's execution would be carried out, he was not surprised at all. He went out and summoned a few guards and ordered them to take out from the arsenal a few machetes that were not used in the camp all year round and were used to enforce military law, and then sharpened their sharpness, and asked the guards to go and summon the return of the battalions that had gone out to practice outside the city in the morning, and immediately selected wrestlers from their subordinates to prepare the chores before the execution.

Li Yanzhi sat down after Zhou Xing's several cases, and watched Zhou Xing go out to be busy. He talked with the prisoners in the morning over wine, and for a while he did not talk less about topics such as life encounters. At this time, looking back, I also felt quite sleepy, so I took a nap in front of Zhou Xing's desk. I don't know how long it took, Zhou Xing returned, entered the house and woke up Li Yanzhi, saying that it was the end of the hour, and all the troops had returned to the camp. Ask Li Yanzhi to go to the camp to supervise the beheading.

When Li Yanzhi heard this, he immediately got up and walked outside the house. The execution site was chosen in a place in the north-east corner of the barracks. There were originally several pillars and a girder erected here, apparently as a place of execution for executions. It is likely that Zhou Xing temporarily found some soldiers who were proficient in carpentry, and in less than an hour, he set up a simple execution table, but it also surprised Li Yanzhi.

There were holes in the girders, and a thick hemp rope was passed through each hole, and when he looked up at the sun, it was about the beginning of noon, and under Li Yanzhi's order, the four people were immediately escorted to the execution platform. Then, the four wrestlers, who took off their shirts and wrapped their heads in red scarves, each held a broad-backed broadsword in their hands, walked up to the execution platform, and stood behind the four prisoners.

From below, several sergeants came up, tore the hemp rope off the beam, and then untied the knots and tied them tightly in a bun at the back of the heads of the four men. Then they each went to pull the rope they had tied to themselves. The buns of the four were all tightened, and then they involuntarily stretched their necks long.

"Order all battalions to gather and watch the execution!" Li Yanzhi stood aside expressionlessly for a few cases, took a command arrow from the wooden frame on the side, and then ordered.

Hearing this, the soldiers in the battalion on the side went out a few people and shouted in front of the barracks of each battalion to give orders. In just about half an hour, the battalions came in line under the leadership of their respective officers and battalion masters.

At this time, Li Yanzhi watched the sky, and then asked Zhou Xing on the side for verification, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. The wrestlers waiting for execution on the execution table were fine, but the four prisoners only felt that the time was getting longer and longer. After a long time, Zheng Tong couldn't suppress the majestic pressure in his heart after all, and the crotch of his pants was already wet, and the water stains were still spreading, dripping onto the execution table. A foul smell had begun to spread through the breeze, embarrassing the wrestler behind him.

"After investigation, Wang Chuan, Yang Tao, Chu Wei, and Zheng Tong, on the occasion of the county soldiers of our county going to Jincheng last month, contacted profiteers outside the camp without authorization, replaced the military rations in the camp with moldy and spoiled grain, and sold them to people outside the camp, making a profit of more than 3,000 yuan. The implementation of corruption is done, according to military law, it should be beheaded! Li Yanzhi read out the charges of the four people, and then the soldiers of the battalions below the torture platform were all in a chaotic voice.

"Execution!" As Li Yanzhi's words fell, the arrow smashed on the torture table with a crisp sound, and the wrestlers behind the four people had already raised their knives one after another, and then looked at the position and cut it down angrily!

The sergeants who were pulling the buns of the four with hemp ropes suddenly felt a lightness in their hands, and then with a force, the four heads that were still dripping blood were already pulled to the beam. The necks of the four headless corpses on the torture table were still spurting blood from their necks. After a short pause, they fell down one after another. Scarlet blood began to spread wantonly on the torture table.

"Hang the head on the flagpole for public display!" As Li Yanzhi didn't see the words of joy and anger, the four hideous-looking human heads were finally removed from the beam, and then the four sergeants were each promoted to the big pole erected in the camp......
