Chapter 339: External Worries Are Still Rising, Internal Strife Rises Again
Puyang Prison.
Wang Hua was hung from a wooden frame with his arms held high.
Yuan Jun, who was naked, held a leather whip in his hand and dipped it in water.
Tugging at the end of the whip, he smacked it hard.
The whip made a few crunch sounds.
Wang Hua Jiling shuddered.
Zhao Yicheng walked back and forth in front of him with his hands: "Don't hide it from General Wang, the son has always been benevolent." Since following him, he has never seen him treat anyone like this, and it is also a precedent for a general to be in such a situation! ”
Wang Hua said stiffly: "What the prince asked, the last general really doesn't know!" ”
Zhao Yi muttered to Yuan Jun, who was wielding the whip.
In front of Wang Hua, Yuan Jun picked up the whip and whipped it down.
The whip dipped in water was whipped on his skin, and with Wang Hua's miserable howl, a long blood streak floated on his chest.
Yuan Jun didn't stop, and whipped several times one after another!
Howling miserably, Wang Hua's chest was covered with a net-like scarlet wound.
Zhao Yi stopped Yuan Jun and asked Wang Hua, "Is the general willing to confess his accomplices?" ”
After being whipped several times, the wound was hot and painful.
Wang Hua gritted his teeth and burst out a few words from between his teeth: "I don't know ......"
The shirtless Yuan Jun was about to pick up the whip, but Zhao Yi stopped him.
"Childe taught a certain method." When Wang Hua approached, Zhao Yi whispered: "Pull out the scars of the person and smear honey on the wounds......"
Looking at Zhao Yi in amazement, Wang Hua didn't know what this method was for.
"General Wang can guess, is it the bees or the insects that come first?"
A chill rose from the tail vertebrae, and Wang Hua glared at Zhao Yi in horror.
"There is only a white bone left in the bite of insects and ants, and I have not seen it yet. I don't know if it's clean or not. Zhao Yi smiled indifferently: "General Wang, do you want to give it a try?" ”
Wang Hua gritted his teeth and did not say a word.
He was one of the officers who secretly sent the message to Cao Cao.
Admit that it is death, and if you don't admit it, you may be able to live......
With a hint of luck. He's going to fight to the end!
"The general may think that if he doesn't admit it, there is no way to take you." Zhao Yi leaned into his ear and whispered, "I don't know if the next person will come in." Seeing that the general was crawling with insects and ants, whether he was willing to recruit or not. ”
"Fetch honey, and personally serve General Wang!" Zhao Yi instructed Yuan Jun to the side.
Yuan Jun was about to retreat in response, when Wang Hua shouted: "General Zhao, if you recruit an accomplice, can you spare your death?" ”
Zhao Yi shook his head: "Don't hide it from the general, death is inevitable." It's just going to die more comfortably! ”
Thinking of being eaten by insects and ants, Wang Hua's bones tingled.
He gritted his teeth and said, "That being the case, please give the general a certain pleasure!" ”
"Say it!" Zhao Yi sat on the straw mat opposite him: "How else to calculate." How to secretly communicate with Cao Cao, 1510 is clear! ”
Wang Hua confessed to a group of officers.
According to the list he listed, Zhao Yi was arrested one by one.
The officers who had nothing to do with the incident did not let them go immediately.
More than a dozen officers involved in the case were taken into custody, while many more were left in the government.
The sunset is afterglowing, and Puyang City is covered with a thin golden halo in the afterglow.
The trees in the back garden of the government mansion also have shallow fnom edges encircled in the residual sun.
Yuan Xu was accompanied by Zhao Yi to the wing room in the back garden.
In the wings, more than 100 officers of the Yuan army were placed under house arrest.
They used to be under Liu Pi.
All the people on Wang Hua's list have been arrested, and in order to prevent mistakes, Yuan Xu decided to put the rest of the officers under house arrest temporarily.
Wang Hua and others secretly contacted Cao Cao. The intention is to dedicate the city. Zhao Yi said: "Although these people are not on the list, it will be a disaster to keep them after all......
"How can you win the hearts of people if you kill too much?" Yuan Xu said: "Cao Jun moved forward because he got a message from within the city. Wang Hua and others have also confessed. Tonight is the only way to act. These people were temporarily placed under house arrest, and Cao Jun did not move for two days, and we only had to strictly guard the city. They will never have a chance to contact Cao Cao again! ”
"Gongzi is benevolent, just a remnant of the Yellow Turban......"
"The Yellow Turban Incident. Many are forced to leave their homes. Yuan Xu said: "Follow the yellow scarf for a long time to develop a bandit, and if you carve more, you can still become a talent one day!" ”
The two of them talked. I have arrived in front of the wing.
The guard shouted to the house, "Childe has arrived!" ”
Yuan Xu stood outside the wing, and the officers under house arrest ran out of several houses.
More than 100 people lined up to salute, looking at Yuan Xu with apprehension.
"In the past, Tongze was once bound, but you are uneasy?" Yuan Xu asked.
The officers bowed their heads, and no one dared to look at him more.
Life is in the hands of Yuan Xu, they are like fish on the chopping board, the prince of the family standing in front of him only needs to raise the knife in his hand, and they will fall to the ground.
"The charges of Wang Hua and others have been confirmed. Secretly communicating Cao Cao's intention to sacrifice the city, how could he tolerate him? As for ...... you are waiting for" Yuan Xu stopped talking and looked around at everyone.
The officers raised their heads and looked at him in fear.
"If you don't collude with Cao Jun, you don't need to panic." Yuan Xu continued: "Stay here for two days, and still lead a soldier!" ”
More than 100 officers looked at each other, not understanding what Yuan Xu was going to do.
Everyone waited for him to continue, but Yuan Xu didn't say anything more and turned around and left.
Zhao Yi said to everyone: "You may not understand the meaning of the child, don't ask you and other backgrounds, just ask whether you can serve with sincerity." If you sincerely follow your son, you will have a bright future in the future. If it seems that Wang Hua and others secretly collaborate with the enemy, it is only a matter of time before the head falls to the ground! ”
Zhao Yi's words were indifferent, but everyone felt that they were wrapped in the cold wind when they heard it.
Seeing Yuan Xu go away, more than 100 people did not dare to return to the house.
"Everyone, please go back to the house and rest!" A Yuan Jun stepped forward to remind.
Then everyone went back to their rooms.
Out of the back garden, Zhao Yi said: "The son is really wise and far-sighted, and he can see from the subtleties that someone is secretly communicating with Cao Jun. ”
"It's just common sense." Yuan Xu said: "Cao's army advanced but did not attack the city, how could it be so if it wasn't confident? Liu Pi used to be the commander of the Yellow Turban Qu, and his department followed him for many years, and a certain general was killed by the correct military law, how could no one go to the tomb to mourn? ”
Zhao Yi nodded silently.
If it were him, he would not have been able to discover these details at all!
"Although Wang Hua and others have been caught, it is difficult to guarantee that there are no fish that have slipped through the net." Yuan Xu said: "The guards at the city gate must not be relaxed, and Cao Jun must not be allowed to find the opportunity!" ”
"It's a pity Liu Bi!" Looking up at the sky, Yuan Xu said: "Half of the soldiers and horses in the city are under his command, if you don't kill them, it will be difficult to carry out the military order." If you kill it, the old department will make trouble! The two evils are the opposite, and a certain can only choose the lesser and follow it! ”
Zhao Yi didn't say anything.
Of course, he understands the consequences of the army's failure to give the order to fight!
Wang Hua and others secretly colluded with Cao Cao, but they were motivated by killing Liu Pi!
Commanding tens of thousands of soldiers, Yuan Xu has too many to worry about.
In particular, not all the officers and soldiers in the army are old departments, and half of them are generals brought by Liu Pi!
External worries are still rising again, and it is not easy to defend Puyang! (To be continued.) )
