Chapter Seventy-Six: Seventeen Laws and Fifty-Four Slashes
This piece of paper is two feet square, and it is densely filled with people's names in small letters. There are 300 names in 10 horizontal and 30 verticals.
Qin Lei handed the paper to the soldier, walked to the main seat and sat down, and muttered, "Could it be too big?" ”
Huangfu Zhanwen stood up and saluted: "Your Highness doesn't know, since your majesty established the prince five years ago, the crown prince guard formed an army, according to the rules, when the new emperor ascended the throne, the prince guard was naturally promoted to the imperial city guard, which is of great significance." Therefore, it is natural for all adults to insert eyeliner according to the custom. Later, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and they all said that we had no hope. These eyeliners also have no effect, but they are in the military, and they can't get out before they reach the age limit. ”
Qin Lei said with a smile: "These people are depressed, so they often cause trouble. You don't care, and you end up being a bully in the army, right?"
Huangfu Zhanwen said ashamedly: "According to His Royal Highness, Zhanwen does have an unshirkable responsibility. ”
Qin Lei shook his head and said, "I have to mention the past again." The military report to the Taiwei Mansion, has it been sent? ”
Huangfu Zhanwen nodded and said, "Just sent it, it would be good to have a reply within twenty days." ”
Qin Lei said with a smile: "Twenty people died, and one hundred and eighty people were seriously injured. That's enough for the two of us to drink a pot. ”
Huangfu Zhanwen lamented in his heart that he would be mistaken for life when he got on the thief ship, so he could only smile bitterly: "When the sky falls, His Highness will stand on it." ”
Qin Lei got up and laughed: "Well said, you just put your heart in your stomach, Your Highness will not let my people suffer." ”
Huangfu Zhanwen has never seen such a shameless one, and yesterday he said righteously, I don't want your loyalty, I don't want your trust, as long as you are obedient. As a result, after pulling myself onto the thief ship, I became 'my man'......
He complained in his heart, but he never dared to offend this young master again. Anyway, the emperor's family is a big family with deep roots and lush leaves. It won't be completely thrown to which side until the last moment, so it's better to stand on this young master's side to avoid the wind and rain for the time being.
Having made up his mind, his attitude became more and more respectful.
At this time, a personal soldier came in and knelt down to report: "Your Highness, General, the people on the list have been arrested." None of them slipped. ”
Qin Lei smiled and nodded, he knew that Huangfu Zhanwen would inevitably take the opportunity to exclude dissidents, which was also the proper meaning of the question, so he would not dwell on this issue. chic, he became the wronged leader who took the blame for others.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At noon, the scorching sun shone in the sky.
A row of red-clothed executioners, bare-chested and breast-bared, holding ghost-headed broadswords, stood under the stage facing thousands of sergeants.
Thousands of people on the school field were silent, and the atmosphere was solemn and abnormal. These sergeants all heard the shouts of the Northeast Battalion last night, and knew that the group of uncles went to the Northeast Battalion to get lucky, but they ran into hard stubble. It's not a good thing anyway, and they are happy to listen to the play.
But things didn't go well when I woke up today. The general's own soldiers were arrested everywhere in the barracks, reportedly searching for yesterday's escapees, but many who were not involved in yesterday's brawl were also arrested. Originally, there was still some excitement, but when the soldiers found that the people who were captured were basically people who were rampant and domineering on weekdays. They were silent.
This silence continued into the school yard at noon, where thousands of sergeants expressed their emotions in this way.
When Huangfu Zhanwen and Qin Lei appeared on the martial arts stage, thousands of pairs of eyes looked at them together, and there was fear, obedience, and even expectation in those eyes.
When the two of them stood still, the captain on duty said loudly: "Ceremony! Thousands of people struck their left chests with their right fists at the same time, shouting in unison: "Long live Great Qin, long live Your Majesty, and your Highness Thousand years old." ”
Huangfu Zhanwen looked at Qin Lei, and Qin Lei nodded. Huangfu Zhanwen stepped forward, stood in the center of the martial arts platform, and said in a majestic voice: "Last night, there was a terrible scandal in the northeast camp. The result was twenty-one dead and one hundred and three wounded. ”
There was silence in the field, only the roar of Huangfu Zhanwen echoed in the air: "This is not an enemy attack on the camp, but the result of a thousand frantic brutes who have no regard for their robes, draw their swords against each other, and kill each other." If it is not stopped in time, who knows what other human tragedy will be caused? ”
Although the sergeants on the field more or less knew about the situation at that time, there were countless fights between comrades in the past, and few people were heard of causing deaths. At this time, I couldn't help but be frightened.
"As soon as this incident came out, His Highness was furious! Give the prince a sword, and order the general to be strict. With a grim expression, he continued: "Eight hundred and seventy people were arrested at the scene yesterday, and another thirty murder suspects absconded. All of them have been arrested today. There are all kinds of human and physical evidence, and they cannot be repudiated. ”
As soon as the words fell, hundreds of fierce and vicious soldiers pressed forty soldiers with scaly wounds all over their bodies, and the soldiers who gagged with cloth balls arrived at the stage of the martial arts exercise.
Huangfu Zhanwen took out the luxurious sword at his waist, put it across his chest, and roared loudly: "The Great Qin Army is the third, and the night is a fight, this is a slack army, and those who commit it will be killed!" Now His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince is merciful, holding the prince's sword to intercede, only punishing the evil, and those who do not kill people will be given eighty rods, removed from their military status, and sent back to their hometowns! ”
The soldiers in the audience all knew the seventeen laws and fifty-four slashes, but Wei Zhong had never seriously implemented them, and when he heard that he really wanted to implement the law, he couldn't help but feel cold in the back of his head, as if the ghost-headed big knife was standing on him.
Huangfu Zhanwen said word by word: "The murderer is killed!" The sword slammed down.
The executioners in the audience raised their ghost-headed broadswords high and shouted in unison: "Chop!" At the same time as the sword was swung down, blood gushed out from the sword in his hand, and forty good heads rolled to the ground.
The soldiers were silent, they had not seen a drop of blood except for a fight since they joined the army. Some people even fainted with fright.
Qin Lei, who had been silently watching behind Huangfu Zhanwen, saw dozens of heads flying up, his pupils shrank, and he returned to normal.
Huangfu Zhanwen seems to have been awakened by the blood of the past. He looked at the panicked soldiers in the audience and said coldly: "From now on, the prince's guard will strictly enforce the seventeen laws and fifty-four beheadings. ”
The blood of dozens of men flowed more and more on the ground, and finally trickled down to the feet of the soldiers standing in the first rows, staining their cloth shoes red.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dozens of heads fell to the ground, and hundreds of comrades were tortured and repatriated. In exchange for the second day, as soon as the drums sounded, all the soldiers ran to the school field like crazy. In less than a moment, the assembly was completed.
There was still a brazier hanging on the stage, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air. Qin Lei looked at the lifeless team in the audience expressionlessly, and whispered to Huangfu Zhanwen: "It seems to be a bit overkill." Huangfu Zhanwen pressed the sword and said in a deep voice: "It's okay, as long as the rewards and punishments are clear, the morale will come back." ”
Qin Lei knew that in terms of ruthlessness, he was even worse than the officers of this era. And he said no more.
Thousands of people stood quietly like this, until the brazier gradually went out and the golden crow rose in the east, and Huangfu Zhanwen said to the audience: "From today onwards, queue training will be conducted all day for a month. Now wait for half an hour for breakfast, and you must return to the school field in half an hour, and violators will be dealt with according to military discipline! ”
The second law of the Great Qin Army, the name should not be called, the time is not enough, the time is not reached, the law of the division is changed, this is called the slow army, and the offender will be beheaded.
The soldiers hurriedly disbanded and returned to their camps. Half an hour later, they all returned to the field, and none of them were late.
Huangfu Zhanwen ordered the whole guard to disperse in teams. Taught separately by some unfamiliar faces.
The first day of training was a military posture. The requirements are very simple, hold your head high, tuck your abdomen and raise your buttocks, and then stand still.
The teaching ordered ten of them to stand in a row. One line happened to be assigned to one teaching, and they went back and forth.
At first, the soldiers laughed at these teachings in their hearts, and fooled people with children's plays, who would not stand? But after standing for long, some people felt uncomfortable, and when they moved a little, they would be taught to whip their bodies fiercely, and roar viciously: "Haven't you eaten dinner, can't you stand up straight?" ”
Such scenes take place in every corner of the school grounds. The same movements, the same scolding, made several people hiding in the shade of the trees laugh.
A man with a scarred face scolded with a smile: "This group of boys, can't you change the words?" The fuck is on the line, and it's dinner? ”
Qin Lei hugged his stomach and collapsed on a recliner with a smile, and it took a long time to say breathlessly to Zhong Likan, the scar-faced man on the left: "Who told you to say yesterday that you can't get out of shape in a single word?" You see that Shen Qing's people didn't make this mistake. ”
Shen Qingtie on the right blushed and said in a deep voice: "But my subordinates didn't let them imitate me when walking!" ”
Because on the way here, the inner thigh was worn on horseback, and Shen Qing walked a little bit lately.
