On the flagpole of the Dianjiangtai facing the camp gate, now in addition to a strong fluttering banner with the word "cool", a wrist-thick hemp rope is pulled out in the middle of the flagpole, on which there are eleven hideous human heads, and the braided hair is tied on the hemp rope. The blood stains on the head and neck that had long dried up still showed a dripping shape, hanging from the long strip below the neck, which looked extremely terrible.

Under the eleven heads, the blood that had previously dripped had already formed small pools of blood. Some of them have converged with the pool of blood next to them, and after they dried up at this time, they showed a purple-black color that made people palpitate when they looked at it.

Liu Jiwu walked in front of the stage with an expressionless face. Below the general platform, the Lingju County soldiers lined up formed several black and oppressive phalanxes. The soldiers stared intently at the eleven familiar human heads on the platform, but they didn't dare to take a breath. Liu Jiwu paced twice in front of the general's platform, suddenly stood still, and then pointed to the hemp rope hanging from the head, and said to the soldiers below who were silent: "Take care of your injuries and despise your superiors." That's how it ended! ”

"Today, you can take care of your injuries to avoid drills. Tomorrow you can use your injuries to avoid the expedition! Since Sima was transferred to this county, although he has been strict with you in practice, what has he been sorry for? ”

The soldiers in the phalanx, whether they were the best selected heavy-armored soldiers, or foot soldiers, cavalry pawns, and crossbowmen, were all silent at this time. In all fairness, since Li Yanzhi came to take over Sima, the money, cloth, and grain and rice that everyone received as salaries were now distributed on time. In addition to the rigorous drills, Li Sima really didn't have any place that couldn't stand these generals.

Seeing that the generals below were silent, Liu Jiwu pointed to the soldiers standing in line with heavy armor in front of him: "Li Sima chose the strongest in the army to form a separate army and named it the Zhanfeng Battalion, which is nothing more than to build an army with elite soldiers. Under the golden city, I don't know how many of you have participated in the war. Haven't you learned the strength of the thief general? ”

"Sima paid everyone a double salary, and what he asked for was nothing more than to make everyone's family have enough food and clothing, so that everyone could devote themselves to making contributions in the army! It's not for you to take care of your injuries, avoid drills, and then hide in the camp like a mother-in-law and throw dice! ”

Although Liu Jiwu has always been a calm and capable image that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but now he is furious in the camp, and under the sharp reprimand, everyone is silent, and the atmosphere does not dare to take a breath.

"Now the fate of these people is obvious to all! I hope that you will take this as a warning in the future, and do not violate military law again. If you commit a crime, you will not be spared! ”

"Disband!" Liu Jiwu stood at the bottom of the stage, but the rope tied to the eleven human heads was not far from him. After shouting to disband, the soldiers left one after another, and no one looked in the direction of the point.

If the last time I killed the corrupt officials and ink officials, the shock to the battalion sergeants was not big enough, this time I killed so many criminal soldiers, these human heads hanging on hemp ropes have been with them day and night, maybe a few days ago, they were still with them, but now, there are only human heads tied to the hemp rope that have disappeared from the temperature.

Under this kind of intuitive visual and psychological stimulation, Li Yanzhi believes that in the future, the non-commissioned officers in the army will definitely be restrained. No more as unscrupulous as before. In the battle battalion with a total of more than 100 people, more than ten people did not go to practice, and they all pretended to be injured and sick in the camp! The funny thing is that as the general of the battle battalion, Zhou Xing didn't even realize it. Li Yanzhi also knew that he and these soldiers were in private Xiao Jiujiu, but he didn't call him to reprimand him openly, but just quietly asked Liu Jiwu to inform Zhou Xing, and next month, Zhou Xing will not be paid.

After Zhou Xing learned about it, he also calmly accepted this fact. Who made such a big deal happen to his soldiers? A fine of only one month's salary is considered an extrajudicial favor. It also made Zhou Xing secretly relieved. Li Yanzhi has already stated that he will be fined for one month, indicating that he also wants to lightly expose it. Even if Zhou Xing doesn't receive this monthly salary, his family can still get by, and he doesn't need to argue anymore if he knocks out his teeth and swallows blood, but it causes Li Yanzhi to take this matter seriously.

And Zhou Xing is not alone in enjoying this kind of extrajudicial favor. Li Yanzhi stood at the window of a second-floor inn in the city. From this window, you can vaguely see the whole of the camp. After all the sergeants in the battalion were dispersed, Li Yanzhi turned his head to look at the person beside him, smiled faintly, and said, "Xu Wei, the matter in the camp has been revealed." Since I promised each other to you, and now that I have fulfilled my promise, it is up to you to show yourself......"

Xu Wei looked at the few heads that were faintly visible on the platform in the middle of the barracks, but his face was already pale. He turned his head again and glanced at Li Yanzhi, who was complacent next to him. He told himself in his heart that if he didn't agree to Li Yanzhi's proposal that night, then the head that was now hung on the general platform should be him.

After Xu Wei agreed to Li Yanzhi's request, Li Yanzhi immediately proposed a death row prisoner from the county government jail who looked somewhat like Xu Wei, and ordered the jailers to whip the death row prisoner's face with a whip dipped in salt water. Last night, on a dark and windy night, the death row prisoner was dragged to a mass grave on the outskirts of the city with ten other soldiers and beheaded.

And these eleven heads are the eleven ones that are now hanging next to the point platform.

Xu Wei suddenly felt a chill all over his body. When he looked at Li Yanjiong's back again, there was already a deep fear in his eyes. He knew in his heart that he dared to risk his life to save his life, and this Sima didn't know how dangerous it was to send him forward. He asked in a trembling voice, "Sima Li...... Ignorance...... I don't know why I chose ...... in the first place. Select the villain ......"

Li Yanzhi turned his head, smiled, walked a few steps, sat down on the stool on the side, and then looked at Xu Wei, who was shivering, and said leisurely: "Take care of your injuries, don't go to practice, hide in the barracks and play canopy." When the matter is revealed, your first instinct is to kill me. You're not too daring......"

"Subordinate...... The subordinates have eyes but no beads, and they don't know Li Sima's true face......" Xu Wei listened to Li Yanzhi turn over the old accounts, and suddenly a feeling of wanting to cry without tears came to his heart.

"I ask you what you will do with the defeat in the camp and the silence is successful." Li Yanzhi changed his words: "As a result, you answered me, or find an empty space behind the barracks and bury it on the spot." Either you will work together to climb over the camp wall, carry the corpses out of the city in burlap bags, and bury them in mass graves...... It's a good abacus......"

Xu Wei listened to what Li Yanzhi said, and every sentence was calm. had to stand aside in embarrassment, but he couldn't figure out Li Yanzhi's intentions, so he was silent on the side.

"In an impromptu incident, you can think of two ways to deal with it in that short moment." Li Yanzhi paused, and said with a faint smile: "It's really not bad." This kind of psychological quality, this kind of ability to change, staying in the camp and practicing every day, but it is really condescending......"

Xu Wei didn't know whether Li Yanzhi was praising or disparagement, and cold sweat was gradually pouring out on his forehead.

"It's just that although you are good at change, you are really a bit rough in your work." Li Yanzhi pouted: "Someone, but because I caught your handle, you killed people in a hurry." Don't ask, who is coming? In the end, Li Yanzhi was already slightly disgusted and disdainful.

I've found a master for you. If you go to experience with him, you will definitely not be so rough in the future. Also, from now on, there will be no such person as Xu Wei. I'll take it upon myself to pick up another tuba for you. It's better to change the surname to Yu. What's the name...... Then it will be done. What do you think?

As he spoke, Li Yanzhi took the pen and paper on the table in the guest room, dipped the pen in the inkwell that had been ground a long time ago, and then leaned in front of the paper and quickly wrote the three words "Yu Zecheng".

Xu Wei looked at the three barely upright words on the paper, but he was stunned. Li Yanzhi looked at him quietly, although he didn't get a response for half a day, Li Yanzhi still watched quietly. Until Xu Wei pinched the paper with his new name written in his hand, and then slowly raised his head.

Li ...... Sima Li. But his subordinates still have a reluctant request, I hope Sima will allow it......"

"Say it. As long as I can do it. Li Yanzhi nodded.

"I ...... I want to see my young son again......" Xu Wei lowered his head, not daring to look at Li Yanzhi again, but in the corners of his eyes, there were tears pouring out of his eyes: "I...... I'll just look at it from afar, and I'll ......."

"Ben is ready." Li Yanzhi replied categorically: "You can rest in this inn today." Early tomorrow morning, the county government will send a carriage to pick you up and stop at the street where your house is located. Until the end of the afternoon. You can only stay in the carriage, watch from a distance, and you are not allowed to get out of the train and walk around, let alone meet anyone. ”

Li Yanzhi said a lot categorically, but in the end, he still felt as if he had missed something crucial. After thinking about it, he emphasized: "Don't think crookedly. Otherwise......"

Li Yanzhi took out a bamboo whistle and blew a long whistle at the window. Immediately, a short crossbow bolt flew out of the window, grabbed the ground, and nailed straight to the pillar in the room.

Seeing this scene, Xu Wei's face was already bloodless, and he hurriedly clenched his fists and knocked on the ground: "Subordinate...... Subordinates don't dare to ......"

Li Yanzhi faced the window and turned his back to Xu Wei: "Maybe in the future, you can come back here, return to your wife and children, and share your family with them again......"

Xu Wei's originally pale face suddenly became ruddy. As if a person about to drown, he grasped a life-saving straw, and his eyes radiated excitement.

"I don't know...... I don't know what Sima said about that day...... When will it come......" A flame of hope ignited in his heart, and Xu Wei could no longer be indifferent.

"If in the future, one day when the world can be peaceful, I will personally send you back to this place......" Li Yanzhi glanced at Xu Wei with pity, then turned around and walked out of the room. With the sound of the door of the guest room closing, Xu Wei, who was left alone in the room, looked at the feather arrow on the pillar in the room, and fell into deep contemplation.

Li Yanzhi walked out of the inn, turned the corner, and Tao Heng, who was wearing a helmet and armor on the side of the road, saw him coming and hurriedly gave him a look. Li Yanzhi saw it in his eyes and knew it, and then replied with a meaningful smile.

When they got closer, Li Yanzhi motioned for Tao Heng to follow, and the two walked through an alley, and then walked through a few streets before they stopped in a corner on the street outside the camp.

"How? What is the news from the county government and the rest of the counties? Li Yanzhi dragged Tao Heng and asked quietly.

"My subordinates heard that the county government recently bought a batch of pig iron from Wuxing County. It's probably a trip to Guzang, and the majesty of our county soldiers makes the prince feel that it is not decent enough......"

Tao Heng was considering the wording, but Li Yanzhi had already interrupted him rudely: "Is there anything else?" There is no need to say more about this kind of thing, I will go to Xin Fujun when I go back, and we will buy another batch of iron ......."

"Craftsman Li recalled a group of blacksmiths from the county, but now the workshop is a little small, I don't know if it is necessary to expand the workshop......"

"This kind of thing, let Li Craftsman write an official document, after Xin Ming Mansion approved it, he will allocate money and grain from the government treasury, and the craftsman in the workshop will expand the workshop is ......" Li Yanzhi looked at Tao Heng and revealed what he said lightly. After that, he asked expectantly, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Uh......" Tao Heng reported two things that were big things in his eyes one after another, but they were all exposed by Li Yanzhi, and he suddenly felt a little angry. However, after thinking about it carefully, he said: "I met Su Sima in the county, and he said ......"

"Huh?" When Li Yanzhi heard Tao Heng's words and Su Fu, his ears suddenly pricked up, and he looked at Tao Heng with a look of anticipation.

He said to his cousin...... Now it seems that he is sick at home, and he has never gone out in October. Previously, Suoshi had come to the door to propose marriage, and I heard that ...... I heard that he has also divorced now. Su Sima was annoyed by this, and heard him say that a few days ago in the county town, he met the Suo's children riding out on horseback to go hunting, so he took a horseman and beat the Suo's Xiaolangjun with a blue nose and swollen face. Now he is still lying at home and recuperating. Soxhth seems to be furious about this. But Su Sima is not afraid of ......"

Li Yanzhi listened to this gossip with a smile, but his heart was already happy. But in an instant, his face returned to his usual calmness, and he let out a low "oh". Then he asked, "How are you now, the former commander Feng Ding?" ”

Tao Heng heard that Li Yanzhi asked about Feng Ding, and he suddenly realized in his heart. He smiled and said, "General Feng is not leading the army now, but just hanging up an idle job in the county government. It's fun every day. The point is, there is no need to wait for the knife to lick the blood again......" Li Yanzhi's question evoked a lot of memories in Tao Heng's heart. However, his old commander Feng Ding no longer leads troops, although he feels regretful in his heart, but for this matter, he also thinks it is a good ending.

"If you have the opportunity to see Feng Ding again, you will let him know. If he still wants to lead troops, come to Lingju. Although the temple is small, it is also promising. If he wants to come here, I'd like to let him go. General Feng followed the command of General Chen and made great achievements, although this small county Sima was condescending, but he could show his strength. Entrusting General Feng with the most appropriate ......"

When Tao Heng heard this, he was shocked for a while, and after a few breaths, he hugged his fists and said: "Sima is broad-minded, but his subordinates are more and more admired, but General Feng has no intention of getting involved in the battle again, and I hope Sima will be considerate...... 4510
