Chapter 11 Righteousness has a hard way to survive
The fat man gasped as he wiped his blood-stained sword with the hem of his clothes, and after a long time he said, "Go to the back and see what these two old thieves and mothers are hiding, and if there is any food, wine and meat, they will all be removed." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"And what about this kid?" The soldier kicked Lu Shaoyang, who had already fainted, and asked, "Are you also killed now?" ”
The fat lieutenant touched a few wisps of rat whiskers on his chin with his hand, and said, "This kid is a little special, but you see that he is dressed like a noble son, maybe he is the young master of a large family." ”
The soldier asked: "Didn't you fall when the big families in Shuzhong fled?" ”
The fat man shook his head and said, "It's a little different, this kid's dress is clearly the appearance of Xia Guoren, it seems that there is something strange about it." Now that we have formed an alliance with the Xia Kingdom, it would be easy to say if we killed a flat-headed common man now, but if we killed them by mistake, it would be difficult to do it. ”
"What do you mean, Captain?" The soldier on the side asked.
The fat man thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, you go down first to find some food according to my wishes, this kid will carry him back for the time being, and then make plans after I tell General Fan." ”
"Yes!" The soldiers received the order, but they searched inside and outside the house like hungry tigers jumping into the flock, and the few chickens and ducks in the yard and the millet hidden in the firewood house were all removed by these Chu troops.
The fat lieutenant who "returned with a full load" was so satisfied that he stepped on his horse and ordered the soldiers to set fire to the hut, and so on and so on.
The soldiers did as they were told, and soon the hut, which was supposed to be full of laughter and warmth, was engulfed in flames.
Where would the fat man care about this, and returned to the camp with the men and horses.
At this time, the Chu army had already entered Chengdu City. The general's command camp was set up in the palace of the original king of Shu. The fat lieutenant first imprisoned Lu Shaoyang in the prison of Shu Kingdom, and then swaggered into the palace.
I think that the king of Shu will indeed enjoy, Shu has the reputation of the country of abundance, fertile fields for thousands of miles, rich in grain production, and countless mines and salt roads, which can mine countless gold, silver and jade. The king of Shu was extremely poor and luxurious, and all the jewels and jade that were mined were used to decorate his palace, and the antiques and treasures that filled the palace room, silk brocade even the king of Shu himself could not count, and even more, because there were too many treasures and nowhere to place, they were actually used to decorate the palace, which was really ridiculous! Of course, as soon as the Chu army came, all these good things were moved, and even those that couldn't be moved were destroyed on the spot, and the huge palace was only an empty shell in the end.
The fat man walked through the corridor that was originally carved beams and painted buildings, and not far in front of him was the Luanxiang Hall where the general was deliberating. It was originally a place where the king of Shu entertained his ministers and drank and had fun, but now it has also been taken over by the Chu army and has become a place to discuss important military affairs.
The fat lieutenant was walking with his head held high, when he suddenly saw someone walking out of the Luanxiang Palace, and the two happened to greet each other. I saw that the man was seven feet long, with a fair face, eyebrows like a sword, eyes like a star, and he was even more heroic and sassy in a military uniform, and his weapons were extraordinary, but his age was not very old, about twenty or so.
When the fat man saw this man, his face turned pale for a while, and he said in his heart: How could it be so coincidental to meet this life-urging ghost.
He was unhappy in his heart, but when he turned his face, he immediately laughed, and said: "General Xue, it's really a coincidence, you actually met here, and your subordinates are polite." ”
General Xue glanced at the fat man and said, "It turned out to be Captain Li, but I don't know what to do to meet the general." ”
The fat man said: "My subordinates have arrested a Xia countryman, but I don't know what to do, so I met the general and hoped that the general could judge." ”
"Oh? Caught a Xia countryman, where did you catch it? General Xue asked.
"This ..... In Ewha Ferry outside the city. The fat man replied.
"Rika Wato?" General Xue asked, "Why didn't you wait for the dispatch in the camp but ran to Lihuadu without permission?" ”
"Tell the general, my subordinates are going to raise military rations." The fat man replied tremblingly.
"Raising military rations? Who told you to go? Can there be an order from a general? ”
"There is indeed no order to raise grain, but there is a shortage of food in the army now, and the king of Shu burned down the granary when he left, but there was no grain in the city, so his subordinates went to raise some outside the city. What's more, when the general entered the city, he said: Everything can be done expediently, so his subordinates ....."
"So you're going to rob people's houses and slaughter people?" General Xue was already glaring angrily at this time.
The fat man was really a little frightened when he saw him like this, and hurriedly explained: "The slaughter of the city is an order from the general, is it possible for his subordinates to disobey the order?" ”
General Xue said: "The slaughter of the city is an unrighteous act, and I can't stop it if you do it, but that Lihuadu is far outside the city, it is a simple countryside, and you go there to kill people It is obviously your own **** difficult to peace, and it is against human ethics!" ”
The fat man coughed dryly and said with a smile: "What did General Xue say, and what evidence did I have to say that I killed people outside the city?" ”
"Humph! If there is no evidence, I will reason with you here? Someone has already informed me of what happened, I think you are really hateful, Da Chu's military discipline has been ruined by you, if I don't correct you here today, it will be against my original intention, and I am even more sorry for the king! ”
General Xue said that he was about to make a move when he pulled out the saber on his waist, and he panicked that Captain Li shouted: "Help!" ”
At the same time, someone suddenly broke off from behind: "Presumptuous! ”
General Xue looked back and saw that it was the great general Fan Zhong, so he had to put down his sword and kneel down on one knee, and said, "My subordinates have never seen the general here, so it's rude!" ”
Fan Zhong pointed at General Xue and asked, "Xue Yi, what are you doing in my deliberations?" ”
Xue Yi replied: "Li Mao has violated military discipline, and his subordinates are ready to correct him." ”
"Huh? What do you say Li Mao is for violating military discipline? The general slowly walked up to Xue Yi and asked.
Xue Yi said: "Then Li Mao didn't listen to the order and went out of the city to raise food without authorization, killing innocent people hurt my great Chu prestige, and his subordinates will correct him." ”
"Nonsense!" Fan Zhong flicked his sleeves and said: "The Shu people are despicable, and it is natural to kill a few of them, and now the military rations are already tight, Li Mao went to raise food for the stability of the whole army, what is the crime?" ”
"But killing the people will make the world despised!"
Fan Zhong was unhappy when he heard this, and said, "You say it's disdainful? Thinking that I gave the order to slaughter the city, do you mean that I don't despise the world? ”
"This ..... The subordinates don't dare! Xue Yi gritted his teeth and replied.
Fan Zhong looked at Xue Yi with disdain and said: "The king let you wear the guilt and make meritorious service, it is the king's act of cherishing talents, but don't forget your identity, the son of a criminal minister is not qualified to point fingers at me, do you understand?" ”
"Yes, my subordinates understand!" Xue Yi lowered his head, and his heart churned.
"That's good." Fan Zhong nodded, and said: "Although the city of Chengdu has been captured now, but the king of Shu has fled, now I think about it, I am afraid that he has joined forces with the Nanban, so the threat to our army is greater, you have to regain your strength, and you can be worthy of the cultivation of you by the king." As for Li Mao, he is indeed innocent, this is not only innocent but also meritorious, the bounty is fifty ingots, go down! ”
"General Xie is very kind!" The fat lieutenant thanked him and said, "There is still one thing that my subordinates want to show to the general." ”
"Tell me!"
"Yes!" Li Mao said: "When my subordinates were raising food outside, they caught a young man dressed as a nobleman of the Xia Kingdom, but they didn't know what to do, and I hope the general will make it clear." ”
"Xia Guoren?" Fan Zhong's eyes rolled, and he thought: This Xia country is now allied with our country, and their nobles really can't be caught, but recently I heard that their king seems to be arresting fugitives, and that identity is a nobleman.
Thinking of this, Fan Zhong said: "This matter is related to the alliance between the two countries, we have to be cautious, where is that person locked up, you can take me to see it." ”
Li Mao said: "Just lock up in the prison, and your subordinates will lead the way." ”
Fan Zhong nodded and said to Xue Yi, "You can go with you, let you see how I handled it impartially." ”
Although Xue Yi was unhappy in his heart, but after all, Fan Zhong was a general, and his status was noble, and as a subordinate, how could he say half a word, so he had to say yes.
The group turned around and went to the prison, and when the doorman saw that the general had arrived, he hurriedly opened the prison door.
At this time, Lu Shaoyang had already woken up, and he sat on the damp ground in a daze, looking at Fan Zhong and the three of them with disdain.
"What's your name? Where did it come from? Fan Zhong asked.
"I don't have much to say to you brutes." Lu Shaoyang Road.
"Boy, don't be hard-mouthed, this is General Fan, if you talk honestly, we will let you go." Li Mao said.
"Hmph, it turned out to be the head of the beast, so I don't have anything to say." Lu Shaoyang turned his head with a solemn expression.
Seeing this, Li Mao was in a hurry, he pulled out the sword in his waist and said, "I see that you are tired and crooked, say it quickly!" Don't say believe it or not, I'll kill you! ”
Lu Shaoyang looked at the long sword and suddenly became in a trance. That's right, it was the sword that killed Granny Zhang and Aunt Huan, the evil sword is the devil's minions, and at this moment the devil is still threatening himself with his teeth and claws. Afraid? He is not afraid, because he believes that evil cannot prevail over good, even if he dies? They get nothing.
A fire ignited in Lu Shaoyang's heart, he pointed at Li Mao and scolded: "Beast, pigs and dogs are not as good, Granny Zhang and Aunt Huan were killed by you, you murderer!" ”
Li Mao's face was blue and white for a while, the sword in his hand trembled a little, and a murderous aura surged into his heart, and he was about to slash when he raised his hand, but Fan Zhong on the side held him down and said, "I didn't figure it out, what are you anxious about?" This person seems to have some backbone, and now ask him if he is afraid that he will not be able to, so forget it tonight. From now on, he will be strictly guarded, interrogated once a day, and both soft and hard, are you still afraid that he will not say anything? But remember, don't use torture first, if you catch the wrong person, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to explain. ”
Li Mao glanced at Lu Shaoyang viciously and said, "My subordinates remember." ”
Xue Yi on the side was also looking at Lu Shaoyang, but he was in a different state of mind.
