Chapter 176: Ulterior Motives

"Stop? Stopped? Zhang Meng didn't seem to hear clearly, hesitated for a long time, and finally didn't say a word: "General, this matter ......."

At this moment, there was no other sound around except the snapping of the rod, and it seemed that the soldiers of the tortured were deliberately suppressing the moans in their mouths. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Glancing at the cold glow on the weapon, Wu Ming said coldly: "Give the order to go, there will be other plans for this matter." But before we can solve it, we have to let them watch a good show. In addition, a distinction is made between soldiers who have been enlisted for three months and those who have not been in the army for three months. ”

"Yes." Seeing that Wu Ming's expression was extremely affirmative, Zhang Meng didn't say much.

After answering the word, he turned around and took a few guards to go down to arrange it in person.

On the high platform, Wu Ming watched quietly. After a while, the soldiers were separated.

The tortured soldiers were naturally assigned to the phalanx of recruits who had been in charge of less than three months.

Looking at the two phalanxes of soldiers who had been lined up in the black press, Wu Ming picked up the simple megaphone used for shouting on weekdays, let go of his voice and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, today the general has specially arranged a good show for everyone to watch, firstly, to show everyone the means of my executioner, and secondly, to let everyone see the fate of disrespecting my Wei soldiers." Now let's watch it together. ”

With Wu Ming's shouting on the high platform, the soldiers below who had their own words began to run around in the phalanx to pass on the words Wu Ming said, after all, there were many people, just relying on the simple megaphone in Wu Ming's hand, the sound was still far from being able to reach the ears of every soldier.

Wait until the scene has quieted down and all the soldiers have returned to their positions. Wu Ming turned and waved his flag at Jin Yan on the high platform not far away.

Jin Yan, who had already discussed with Wu Ming how to do it, began to say something to the soldiers around him.

Then, the cloth covering Zhao Yuan's eyes was directly ripped off. The moment he saw Wu Ming, there was still one sentence after another of abuse in his mouth.

I have to say. After half a year, Zhao Yuan can still abuse Wu Ming like this, this mentality is really extreme. Ordinary people probably don't have this mentality for a long time.

And with his invective, all the soldiers were already looking at him.

At this time, Jin Yan said something to the two soldiers again. Immediately after, two soldiers began to inspect the surrounding torture instruments.

Regardless of Zhao Yuan's abuse, ten palm-length silver needles were directly inserted into Zhao Yuan's ten fingers. At that moment, the screams instantly replaced the sound of invective.

But this time Zhao Yuan's cry was not loud, perhaps he had already adapted to it. But immediately after, the torture instrument used to clamp the finger was directly put on. With that creaking sound, Zhao Yuan's ten hand bones were gradually crushed. Blood began to drip down his ten fingers.

During the whole process, when the fingers, toes, whips, and soldering irons walked aside, Zhao Yuan was already unconscious.

At this time, Jin Yan also ordered the execution to be stopped. But after a while, Wu Ming had already let people carry the water to this high platform.

A basin of water was directly poured on Zhao Yuan's head, although it was summer at this time, and the water temperature just cooled, but the wound was stained with water, which was called a pain.

Zhao Yuan's entire body began to tremble directly, and even the frame that bound him was constantly shaking.

"You...... Don't die well......" This was the first sentence of Zhao Yuan's mouth.

The sound was not loud, but the soldiers in front of the military formation below could still hear it. Some of the soldiers who felt the cruelty of the punishment had begun to discuss it in private, and in a short time, the word spread throughout the army.

At this time, Wu Ming just said lightly to Jin Yan: "Go on, the action just now is a new start, and the other two nostrils are blocked." ”

With the repetition of the punishment for the second time, the eyes of the soldiers were already widening. During the second execution, Zhao Yuan was in a coma three times, but after each coma, he would be directly woken up by a basin of water, and then the execution continued.

It was obviously under the summer sun, but after the execution, some of the soldiers below felt like they had fallen into the abyss to resist. The sweat on his forehead was cold.

"You soldiers must not know who this warrior is, Ben will tell you here that he is Zhao Yuan, the former general of Zhao State. After being captured by Ben General, he has always been disrespectful to Ben Jiang and my king, but those who are still unwilling to accept such punishment are really worthy of our students. Today I just want to tell you that we are the warriors of the Wei State, and the warriors should have the courage of General Zhao. I hope you can learn from General Zhao in this regard.

In addition, from today onwards, all soldiers must be trained for physical sharpening, starting with those who have been in the campaign for less than three months, for a month of tempering, only through this standard, can they be regarded as real Wei warriors, and can have the army in the army. Ben regards everyone as brothers, and here I wish everyone can continue to return to the barracks in a month's time. ”

As those words landed, Wu Ming didn't continue to say anything. Turning around, he raised the red dae behind him, and got off the high platform without looking back.

Under the command of Zhang Meng, the soldiers went down one after another to rest.

During the meal, there were also faint rumors in the barracks, such as "The general is also a ruthless lord." And so on. Some people even say that the reason why this general left Zhao Yuan was because Zhao Yuan had always been disrespectful to him. said that Wu Ming was deliberately torturing Zhao Yuan.

After revealing these things, some soldiers began to figure out what Wu Ming said at the end. He regarded everyone as brothers, but this time it was a demonstration of execution, and a grind to increase the body, although they didn't know what it was. But many people have already guessed that this matter has something to do with those disobedient guys.

Faintly, the more than 300 people who had been tortured just now were a little frightened. It's just that the four guys who instigated these things and stepped down from the centurion position are still holding on to it because they want to save face.

……

Wu Ming did not return directly to the camp after leaving. Instead, he turned the corner and found Liu Yun.

In half a year, as she was too much with the soldiers. The opinion in the barracks that she was a woman had faintly spread. After all, letting a woman teach a bunch of men who are five big and three rough and don't know how to be polite, Wu Ming is still a little worried.

"The last general, I've seen the general." Seeing Wu Ming's arrival, Liu Yun instantly put down some of the things he was preparing in his hand and arched his hand at Wu Ming: "I heard that the general has left the barracks for something, when did he come back?" ”

"There is no one else around here, how can you be so polite? It's not like you anymore. Wu Ming smiled awkwardly, but faintly felt that Liu Yun seemed to have something: "I came back early this morning, I dealt with some things just now, I heard that there was something strange in the army, so I came here to see if you have any difficulties here." ”

"Oh no, you still know to come and take a look." With these words, Liu Yun's face changed instantly.

Something really happened! Wu Ming thought about it in his heart, smiled helplessly, and said, "Why is it so angry, let's talk about it, what happened?" ”

"What else can I do, the general asked his subordinates to deal with old men who are five big and three thick! That is, a month ago, a thousand people were going to have to bite the bullet and ask me in their leisure time for the meaning of some words. ”

"And then?"

"Of course I said no. But that guy is very thick-skinned, and he says that he wants to try, and if he loses, he will never bother me privately in the future. Then I hurt my arm, and it seems that I am still recuperating. It seems that he almost lost the position of a thousand generals for this matter. ”

When Wu Ming heard this, he instantly laughed: "Haha, then you taught others a lesson, and you came to me to complain again?" What is this called? ”

But Wu Ming smiled, but Liu Yun didn't laugh, but lowered his face and glanced at Wu Ming, "It's all those strange rules you made, and now these soldiers really don't know whether it's good or bad, are you constantly treating them too well?" ”

The light voice was tinged with a hint of resentment, as if a newly married wife was complaining to her husband that he was too lax in his discipline of the children.

If the conversation between the two is heard by outsiders, it may make it look embarrassing.

"I also think it's a little too good for them, but it's not a little good." Wu Ming gritted his teeth, his tone also increased a little at this moment, and he turned his body in a direction thoughtfully as he spoke.

"What, you've heard anything else?" Liu Yun squinted at his side face and asked quietly.

At this moment, there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside. After a while, Zhang Meng and Jin Yan came in together: "I've seen the general." ”

As soon as the two of them entered, needless to say, the atmosphere in the camp was naturally a little more rigorous.

"All sorts of things are done?" His eyes swept over the two of them, and Wu Ming asked loudly.

"Well, and there's something else to come." Zhang Meng nodded and responded solemnly.

"What's the catch?"

"Just now, two soldiers privately approached the general and told some truths." After a slight pause, Zhang Meng pursed his lips lightly, and then continued: "They said that the four centurions of the selection book are all orphans and have no relatives, so they kill the enemy bravely on the battlefield, but they care about their positions. So he took out his own money to bewitch his recruits. In recent years, the lives of the people have been really hard, and for the sake of the gold, these people have gone against the law, trying to avoid our eyes and deal with the four guys.

But I don't want to deal with the past, and I think I'm scared by you, the general. Now that I know that I was wrong, I came to the last general to explain the truth. ”

"Know it's wrong? Hehe," Wu Ming sneered and said viciously: "It's not okay to know that you're wrong, some people really can't be too good to them." The notice went down and transferred the 10,000 soldiers who had been on the expedition for less than three months to Shangfang in Wufeng Mountain to rush to work. There is a shortage of craftsmen. In addition, in the future, all the newly recruited soldiers will be sent to Shangfang to work as coolies for a period of time, and as for the standard, let them know a hundred commonly used words.

If they are not honest there, these punishments today should be used, and those who should be killed will be killed. Of course, whether or not they passed the test of a hundred words, they had to stay there honestly for a month before they could be sent to the barracks. ”

After listening to Wu Ming's words, Zhang Meng felt that he was ruthless when he should be ruthless, and those who did not admit defeat and sincerely made trouble had to be killed.

But what Wu Ming meant was to let everyone who came to the barracks know that today's happy life was not easy to come by, and let them cherish it.

"The last will obey." Zhang Meng thought about it, and immediately said to Wu Ming: "If it was like this, I'm afraid there won't be such a mess." ”

Rolling his eyes, Wu Ming still said so fiercely: "Who knew that these guys were so ignorant." If you don't eat a toast, give them some color to see. From now on, you will be in charge of the affairs of Wufeng Mountain. Others would have been a little uneasy. ”

Zhang Meng was a little hesitant, but finally agreed.

……

At the same time the girders.

Chen Zhen, who had just retired from the court, was stopped by his ministers and told King Wei Hui to wait for him in the back garden.

When Chen Zhen heard this, she naturally didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.

Following his ministers, he skirted a majestic palace area under the scorching sun, and made a quick trip to the back garden along the cold road on the side of the high wall.

At this time, in a pavilion in the back garden, King Wei Hui was lying on a rocking chair safely enjoying the wisps of breeze sent by the fan in the hands of the palace maids around him. Under the gentle kneading of the other person's soft and boneless hands, King Hui almost fell asleep in a daze.

It was also at this time that the ministers who went to the ward General Chen Zhen hurriedly came over and said respectfully beside King Wei Hui: "Your Excellency, the doctor has arrived. ”

On the rocking chair, King Wei Hui woke up like a dream, and suddenly broke free of the pair of small hands that were constantly rubbing his forehead. This move scared the two palace maids a lot.

Standing up, King Wei Hui calmed down, and after sending away the two palace maids, he said to the eunuch, "Come over Chen Aiqing." ”

"Yesβ€”"

After a while, Chen Zhen followed the minister and walked in. In front of King Wei Hui, he saluted: "Weichen see the king." ”

"No courtesy." As soon as he saw Chen Zhen, King Wei Hui didn't know why he always wanted to laugh, and his face was always filled with an unnatural smile: "Chen Aiqing, let's talk about it." ”

"Wechen thanked you."

"Don't hide it from Aiqing, I heard this morning that there was a famine in Korea, because there was too much snowfall in Korea a few months ago, which led to a bad harvest this year. In many places, there is no harvest. For this reason, what is the name of the prince in South Korea? Speaking of this, King Wei Hui had already begun to meditate and dance.

Seeing this, Chen Zhen on the side carefully reminded: "The gentleman is talking about Han Kang, right?" ”

"That's right, it's Han Kang! When the widow heard this, King Han handed over the government to him in a fit of rage. This Han Kang is asking for help from other countries. Old King Han doesn't care about anything, and it's really hard for this prince......"

"Then, what does the king mean to help South Korea this time?"
