Chapter 396: Extralegal Grace

Hebei. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info North shore of Zhangshui. The Qin army battalion.

There are dozens of generals on both sides, sitting in a precarious position, and they don't dare to come out. In the middle of the head, Han Yong, a big line, with a helmet and armor, a solemn face and sharp eyes. At the bottom of the stairs, four healthy soldiers were tying up a general, and it was Yang Jian's head.

Suddenly, another relative general came in outside the tent and reported loudly: "Generalissimo Qiqi, the three generals Liu Chang, Li Zhun and Lu Guang have all been subdued, and the generalissimo is hereby asked to show down." ā€

With a wave of his hand, three soldiers followed, each holding a tray, and the tent was instantly filled with a clear smell of blood. On the tray, three bloody human heads, their faces were hideous and distorted, and they couldn't bear to look at them directly, so that all the generals who were used to killing people couldn't help but change their color slightly.

Han Yong's face sank like water, and he waved his hand: "Hang it up and show the public!" ā€

The generals and others hurriedly bowed down and left. Everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on Yang Jiantou. saw Yang Jian stunned, looking at Han Yong, half-open but speechless.

Han Yong's scorching gaze stabbed straight at Yang Jian's face. "What else do you have to say?"

Yang Jian's eyebrows jumped wildly, and he couldn't help but argue: "Then Lan Beiti, the defender of Licheng, pursued and pursued, but he was too arrogant and kept his mouth dirty, insulting my father, my three subordinates, I really didn't turn around and fight again." Lan Beti was also personally killed by the last general in the end, how can it be regarded as a crime, why did the generalissimo really kill the three of them? ā€

Han Yong slammed the table and shouted angrily: "What's the use of just killing Lan Buti? What Ben Shuai wants is to annihilate the defenders of Li City! The city of Nali was an important place to the east, and the defenders also numbered seven or eight thousand. I told you to go and provoke, but you were only allowed to win and not be defeated, intending to lure the defenders to pour out of the city and then encircle and annihilate them. It's easy for the enemy to go out of the city to pursue you, but the wind in your ears is blowing, and you actually turned around with your cronies and hurriedly beheaded Lan Beti, leaving the defenders frightened and fled back to the city in a swarm, you say! How I commanded you to come! If you dare to violate our military discipline, you should be killed or not! ā€

Yang Jian's face was red and white, and he was speechless. Han Yong nodded his head and said in a loud voice: "You have nothing to say, very good." Come! Push Yang Jian's head out of the door and behead him for public display! ā€

When the generals were shocked to hear this, they couldn't help but jump their eyelids. I wanted to speak, but I didn't dare to speak because of Han Yong's prestige. The four guards pushed Yang Jian's head and was about to go out of the tent, Yang Jiantou was willing to obey, just twisted his body and struggled violently, and then he had a frenzied seizure, jumping harder, glaring at Han Yong and shouting: "...... I am the right man appointed by the emperor! You can't just kill like that! ā€

Han Yong snorted coldly, and said with a face like frost: "It seems that you still don't understand the meaning of fake Huang Yue." Now in the hands of this marshal, as long as he violates our military discipline and violates our military orders, then up to the princes and nobles, down to the pawns and peddlers, can be killed, don't say that you are the right man in the industry. The emperor gave me this festival, is it to decorate the line! ā€

There was a loud bang on the table, and the generals were shocked. looked at each other, but some people still stood up and begged for forgiveness, and even Lei Qizhi, who had always been at odds with Yang Jian, also admonished again and again. Han Yong's eyebrows were upside down, and he said sharply: "This commander is like a commanding arm, and he has dominated the world for nearly 20 years, and he has banned it by virtue of strict military discipline. Wait for Hugh to be noisy, and the guards will go to the execution quickly! ā€

Han Yong's majesty is blazing, and he can't look up. was reprimanded by him, and the generals were silent, and their faces were bitter. It was still time for King Zuo Cheng to stand up, and while asking the soldiers to escort Yang Jiantou out of the tent for a while, he said earnestly to Han Yong: "Your Majesty is the generalissimo." The generalissimo has clear rewards and punishments, and military orders are naturally not violated, but General Yang has a transcendent status after all, and he is the confidant and favorite general of the saint. If it is really killed now, the officials are foolish, and there are still some obstacles. ā€

Han Yong didn't wait to speak, Yao Xiang, who had always been friendly with Yang Jiantou, hurriedly stood up and said, "Generalissimo, Generalissimo!" Listen to the last sentence. General Yang is guilty and deserves to be punished severely. But can he be exempted from the death penalty and let him storm the city of Li tomorrow to atone for his sins? ā€

Han Yong's face was as pale as iron, but he just shook his head and refused to allow it, seeing that he was about to scold him for doing it quickly, the inspector Duochai also stood up and said, "Generalissimo Rongyu." Today, he attaches great importance to his feelings, and his treatment is very generous. Some time ago, Duke Zhou died of illness, and His Majesty almost wanted to break his liver and sausage. The lower officials thought that if General Yang was brought to justice today, then His Majesty would lose an old person, which would mean that the old wound had not healed, and a new wound would be added, wouldn't it make him even more painful? At this level, the generalissimo thinks twice. ā€

Han Yong was silent, and his expression finally eased a little. Duochai observed the words, and continued: "According to the opinion of the lower officials, when you are in charge of the court, please ask the holy judge to do so." ā€

Han Yong was silent for a moment before he sighed: "In this case, Ambassador Lao will write it." ā€

Duochai looked upright, and said respectfully: "Don't dare, the lower officials will study the ink, so that the horse will go to Beijing quickly, and the generalissimo will delay for a few days." ā€

Within a few days, Jingzhong Qin's envoy Pegasus galloped, and it turned out to be Zhou Panlong's eldest son Zhou An. Seeing that it was him, the generals were inevitably a little touched. Zhou An respectfully saluted Han Yong, but what he brought was not a holy decree, but a private letter written by Gao Yue to Han Yong.

"The sudden death of the coiling dragon makes people miserable; Yin and yang are forever separated, and they are very sentimental. If the army is governed strictly, the military can be strong; Yuan Rong is majestic, only righteous and strong. The sin of the strong head should be punished; However, I can't bear to forget the love of the past. The old man withered, and the shadow wandered; Every time I think about it, I feel melancholy. Therefore, under the opening of the account, so as not to make a new mourning; Work hard for the country, may you be safe and healthy. ā€

The emperor did not force the commander to release Yang Jiantou with a holy decree, but from a personal point of view, he told Han Yong his true feelings of sadness and sadness, and specially sent Zhou Panlong's son to come, which was also to once again point out the hidden nostalgia, and tactfully proposed from the side whether he could give grace outside the law and preserve his old feelings. Reading this, Han Yong was of course moved, so he pardoned Yang Jiantou for the capital crime, but he was beaten with forty military sticks, imprisoned in the lanche and escorted back to Luoyang.

The whole army, seeing that as long as he violated military discipline, a general like Yang Jiantou almost died under Han Yong's knife, if it weren't for the fact that the emperor had to put aside his identity and personally send a private message to ask for relief, it was almost impossible to escape. Everyone couldn't help but be shocked, so they were vigilant day and night, for fear that they would also fall into the legal net.

With the strong attack on Licheng, Handan City, an important town three hundred miles away, can be driven to it without hindrance. Handan City is the hub of attacking Xiangguo in the north and Yecheng in the south, and its importance is self-evident. On the day that Licheng was breached, Shi Di, the crown prince of Zhao, led 30,000 troops to Handan to garrison, in addition, Emperor Shi Hu of Zhao weighed the two sides, and also temporarily gave up the war in western Liao, and personally led the army to the south, intending to stop the aggressive trend of the Qin army.

The war between Qin and Zhao is about to break out again, and the result is cheaper for Yan Guo. The Zhao army had just withdrawn, and before the Duan people could breathe a sigh of relief, the Yan army immediately turned around and seized Lingzhi City, killing almost all the Duan nobles, including Duan Liao, and annexing the land of western Liaoxi in one fell swoop. Before long, Murong Hao, the king of Yan, moved his capital from Thorn City to Longcheng, and he was so satisfied that he began to peek into the land of Youzhou.

In the golden autumn of October, the Saibei is ripe. With the distribution of a large number of military supplies and grain, there were 30,000 reinforcements that arrived at the Hebei front line together, and the emperor's resolute heart was self-evident. Before long, Han Yong and Hu Song's two divisions were victoriously joined forces in Licheng, and Shi Shengye had besieged Puyang City, and the Zhao forces south of the Yellow River were almost swept away, and the Qin army had sufficient supplies and was jubilant, claiming to be 200,000 troops, ignoring the 30,000 Zhao troops in Handan, and began to enter Yecheng with great fanfare.
