Chapter 51: The Back Road (Part II)

"Presumptuous." Dong Shuxiao's face turned blue with anger, slapped the table hard, and shouted loudly, "As a member of the army, you spread rumors wantonly without arguing the truth or falsehood, what should you be guilty of, come here, pull me down, weigh twenty military sticks." ”

"Yes." Dong Ze, a hundred personal soldiers, agreed, and rushed into the Chinese military tent with four or five big men in the shape of a man, and dragged Cheng Mingzhong outside.

When the other civilians and generals saw it, they all shuddered in their hearts, lowered their heads, and didn't dare to make another sound, just with Cheng Mingzhong's thin body, after the beating of the twenty military sticks, most of his life must have gone, and this is probably still depending on his years of service before and after the saddle.

But Cheng Mingzhong refused to read Dong Shuxiao's grace of not killing at all, dragged his legs on the ground, and shouted hoarsely while struggling, "My lord, wronged, wronged, lowly duty, lowly duty is really not spreading rumors at will, lowly duty, lowly duty just received a warning signal from Jiaxing"

"Push it out, gag it with horse manure, hit it, hit it hard." The more Dong Xiaoxiao listened, the more his face turned blue, and the scabbard slammed on the handsome case, crackling.

The soldiers didn't dare to delay, and lifted Cheng Mingzhong's hands and feet to walk out, and after a while, the sound of contact between the wooden stick and ** came from outside the military tent, "Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang", one after another, the sound stimulated people's scalps.

The civilian staff and generals in the Chinese military tent all felt cold on their backs, their eyes and noses, and their noses and hearts, and no one dared to intercede for Cheng Mingzhong, and Cheng Mingzhong, whose mouth was blocked, could still scream at first, but only five or six sticks went down, and the sound of wooing and wooing became **, and after being beaten with two or three sticks, he simply didn't even have a ** sound, and his eyes were completely fainted.

Anyway, he is also a three-grade acquaintance, and Dong Ze, the pro-soldier of the execution, did not dare to really beat him to death, so he quickly ordered someone to put away the military stick, and he trotted in to report to Dong Shuxiao, "My lord, Cheng, Cheng joined the army and passed out." ”

"It's not much worse." Dong Xiaoxiao didn't feel sympathy at all, raised his head and glanced at the hundreds of pro-soldiers, and asked coldly.

"Also, ten, ten sticks left." The pro-soldier Baihu Spirits shivered and responded with their fingers folded.

"Write it down for now." Dong Shuxiao waved his hand, and still instructed, "Carry him to the back tent to apply the medicine, and wait for three days, and then make up the rest of the punishment in front of the brothers in the whole camp." ”

This is not much worse than killing the head, Cheng Mingzhong is a faceless scholar, in front of tens of thousands of brothers in the battalion was stripped of his butt and pumped with a military stick, even if he didn't die of pain, he had to die of shame, all the staff and generals felt the same way, the more they felt frightened, and secretly swore in their hearts that they would never touch Dong someone's head again no matter what, and mention the matter of withdrawing troops to save eastern Zhejiang.

Dong Shuxiao looked at everyone's expressions in his eyes, sneered and pursed his lips, and said loudly again, "All the kings and the country are gracious, and when you hear rumors, you will collapse, are you not afraid of the world's shameful laughter, today Dong Mou swears here, not to break Yangzhou, never to be a teacher, and those who dare to talk nonsense and disturb the hearts of the army will come to see you." ”

After that, he didn't wait for everyone to respond, shook his sleeves, cut his arms, and strode towards the back tent.

The civilian staff and military generals looked at each other, and waited cautiously in the tent for a while before they dispersed, and after returning to their respective barracks, they hurriedly used their own means to prohibit the rumors from continuing to spread, so as not to be caught by Dong Shaving, and clean up like Cheng Mingzhong.

Except for a limited number of smart people, the vast majority of the civil and military forces of the Zhejiang army took the initiative to draw a line with the rumors, however, they did not expect that at the moment when they just left, Dong Junxiao was in the back tent, and eagerly rushed to Cheng Mingzhong's stretcher, wiping it repeatedly on his head with a cold towel, while shouting loudly: "Mingzhong, wake up, wake up quickly, where is the person who sent you the letter, where is the emergency document in Jiaxing." ”

"Hmm,,。" After wiping for a long time, Cheng Mingzhong woke up from his coma, let out a long breath, and scolded weakly, "Dong shaves your head, you, you are so ruthless." ”

"Ci is not in charge of the army." Dong Shuxiao wiped two handfuls of cold towels on his face, and continued to ask loudly, "Where is the messenger, besides you, who else knows the news of the loss of Yixing, you hurry up and tell me, don't delay your efforts, you know what the result of the battle of Haixia is." ”

The last sentence was said very vaguely, but Cheng Mingzhong, who was born in Jinshi, was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat, when the overlord of Chu was under Hai, there were originally 80,000 soldiers in his hands, and he could retreat calmly, but Han Xin relied on spreading the news that Chu was captured by the Han army, which collapsed the morale of the Chu army, and the 80,000 soldiers and horses were wiped out, and Xiang Yu himself committed suicide in Wujiang because of the failure to break through.

And the current shape of the Zhejiang army, how similar to the Chu army back then, in case the news that the hometown is in danger spreads, those Mao Hulu soldiers who are mainly tenants and Zhuang Ding will definitely lose morale, and the width of the Yangtze River is several times that of the Wujiang River, even with Fang Guozhen's full help, it is impossible for the Zhejiang army to withdraw to the south bank overnight, not to mention that Fang Guozhen's house is a typical wall grass, and now things are not good, no one can guarantee that he will not defect.

After thinking about the cause and effect, Cheng Mingzhong can no longer hate Dong Junxiao for killing him, even if he changes anyone to be the boss, in the same situation, I am afraid that the first thing he needs to do is to kill people, not to make a big deal like he did before, "Letter, letter is there, it's in my personal pocket, that, that messenger, I, I have ordered my own soldier Wang San to take him down to eat, and it should be near Wang San's sleeping tent at this moment." ”

"Someone." When Dong Xiaoxiao heard this, he immediately stopped drinking in a low voice.

"The end will be." When Dong Ze, a hundred households, heard this, he immediately strode in.

"Go to Cheng Tongzhi's side, lock up the messenger from Jiaxing, and all the people who have been in contact with the messenger, regardless of level, remember, don't make too much noise, whoever dares to make a noise, don't be killed."

"Yes." Dong Ze, a hundred households, agreed loudly, and walked away.

Without waiting for his footsteps to go away, Dong Shuxiao turned his gaze to Cheng Mingzhong again, "Cheng Tongzhi, today's matter, Dong really can't live with you, Dong has made amends, please Mingzhong don't hate me." ”

After that, he clasped his hands on his chest and seriously gave Cheng Mingzhong a long bow.

"My lord, my lord, where is this?" When Cheng Mingzhong saw this, his eyes immediately turned red with emotion, "It's because the subordinate himself didn't think it through and messed up the morale of the army, if he changed someone else to be the commander, he would have cut off the rank with a knife earlier, how dare he hold a grudge against the adult." ”

"Well, it's a pity for you after all." Dong Xiaoxiao sighed, slowly leaned down, and took out the emergency document from the place where Cheng Mingzhong signaled, but did not watch it immediately, but sighed again, and added in a low voice, "I have received the warning message, you can rest assured, Rong Yin behind you, and Dong is responsible for planning for you in the imperial court." ”

"What." Cheng Mingzhong was stunned, and couldn't believe his ears for a moment, "You, you, what do you mean, I, I, I've been beaten, beaten like this, it's difficult, isn't it enough." ”

"Ming Zhong, forgive me for being helpless." Dong Shuxiao didn't give any explanation at all, held Cheng Mingzhong's neck with one hand, and slowly forced, "It's really helpless, Ci is not in charge of the army, you should know, don't hate me, if you change your position with me, the result will be the same." ”
