After finishing the lineup, Leng Yi slowly walked past the front of the line and came back from behind. Finally stand in front of the line. He turned to the generals who had been following him and said, "Look at it, how is it?" ”

Yang Xin and the others didn't know what he was referring to, so they smiled and nodded again and again.

Leng Yi said: "This selection is the one in charge of construction supervision. Violators of orders shall be punished by military law. Therefore, the officer said yesterday that the three armed forces should select tall and strong soldiers to serve as overseers. Look, do these soldiers meet the requirements? ”

Only then did everyone understand what he was talking about, and they hurriedly raised their eyes to see that the two hundred soldiers of the infantry army on the left were indeed tall and strong, all of them majestic. Looking at the front of the temple on the right, they are tall, short, fat and thin, and their spirits are lazy.

Leng Yi looked at Yang Xin, the commander in front of the palace: "Lord Yang, what's going on?" ”

Yang Xin was a little embarrassed, looked at Wang Zhaoyuan in front of the palace, and said in a low voice: "What's the matter with you!" ”

Leng Yi looked at Wang Zhaoyuan: "This job was handed over to you by Lord Yang?" ”

Wang Zhaoyuan hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes......"

"Did you hear what the official said yesterday?"

"I heard ......"

"Then why don't you follow the officer's orders?"

"The lowly ......, the lowly duty is wrong, please lead the punishment!" Wang Zhaoyuan lifted his robe and knelt down.

Leng Yi looked at Yang Xin: "Lord Yang, what do you think should be done about this matter?" ”

At this time, Li Jilong's screams in the distance had become weak and intermittent, obviously unable to resist, and he was about to pass out, and the person in charge of the points had only counted to more than fifty.

Yang Xin glanced at Wang Zhaoyuan, clasped his fists and arched his hand: "The commander is ordered to be responsible for the construction of Jinming Pond, he doesn't listen to the orders of the adults, but he will be punished by the commanders!" ”

"That's good! Yesterday, the official asked the three armed forces to be responsible for the selection, and as for who you have determined internally who is responsible, the officer does not care, and only asks the person who leads the troops. Since your army in front of the palace did not do a good job and did not listen to the orders of the official, then the official will directly blame the person who leads the army, that is, you, and the commander in front of the palace! With that, he looked directly at Yang Xin.

Yang Xin's face was red and red, and he was very embarrassed. Although he commanded the envoy in front of the palace from the second rank, and was three levels higher than Leng Yizheng's fourth-rank deputy commander in front of the palace, but now Leng Yi is the commander of Jin Mingchi, responsible for dispatching all the forbidden troops to build the lake, and got the privilege of the official family to cut first and then play, and there is a precedent of Li Jilong being scolded and shackled by the rod for disobeying the order to show the public, where does he dare to fight Leng Yi again. I had to bite the silver teeth secretly, clenched my fists and said: "Humble duty and punishment!" ”

Leng Yi said: "The matter of selecting the supervisor, because the construction has not yet started, the urgency is not as urgent as the work plan run by Li Jilong, and the punishment is naturally lighter." - Someone! Pull the two of them to the flagpole of the yamen, and Yang Xin will be whipped twenty! Wang Zhaoyuan whipped ten! ”

Yang Xin strode to the flagpole and knelt down, took off his official robe, and exposed his back. Wang Zhaoyuan could only walk to the flagpole and kneel, take off his official robe, and said to Yang Xin guiltily: "I'm sorry, Lord Yang, I didn't do it well, and I affected you." ”

"The military order is like a mountain, remember it in the future, otherwise don't say that Commander Leng will not spare you, even if he is the official, he will not spare you!"

"I know."

Leng Yi also followed, standing by and watching. The escort disciples began their executions. The leather whip made the back of the two of them open, Yang Xin gritted his teeth and said nothing, Wang Zhaoyuan was okay at first, but he couldn't help moaning when he got to the back, fortunately, he only had ten whips, after the beating, seeing that Yang Xin was still being punished, he was ashamed of himself, and said to Leng Yi: "Commander Leng, this matter is a lowly job of incompetence, please let the lowly position be punished for Lord Yang!" ”

"No need!" Yang Xin shouted angrily, "The official can bear it, and then fight." ”

Those soldiers looked at the front of the hall from the second grade to the command of the envoy to be whipped in public, and they all showed fear on their faces towards Leng Yi, and they were originally lazy, but now they all worked hard and stood up straight.

Over there, Li Jilong was in a semi-coma, and he took a fancy to Yang Xin and Wang Zhaoyuan who were also whipped in public, and looked at Leng Yi in horror, his cheeks were swollen like a pig's head by the palm, and he could only mumble vaguely: "Really...... Balls......! ”

Yang Xin's twenty lashes were finally late. His tense body went limp, and he almost collapsed to the ground. Leng Yi hurriedly stepped forward and supported him: "Don't move yet!" I'll give you the medicine! He turned back to the Wumei Daoren: "Give me the wound medicine!" ”

The Wumei Daoist hurriedly took out two medicine bottles and handed them to Leng Yi with both hands: "Take one red one internally, it can relieve pain, and apply the white one externally to the wound." ”

Leng Yi poured out a red pill and sent it to Yang Xin's mouth: "Lord Yang, please take the medicine!" ”

Yang Xin glanced at him gratefully, took the pill and put it in his mouth. Another soldier brought water, and the water was choked.

Leng Yi opened the lid of the wound medicine again, picked out the ointment, and smeared it on the wound on his back.

This wound medicine is Qingcheng's healing medicine, after the medicine, Yang Xin soon felt that the pain in the injury was significantly reduced, and the hot feeling was much cooler, he was very grateful, and hugged his fists and said: "Thank you, Lord Commander." ”

Leng Yi gave the medicine bottle to Wang Zhaoyuan's attendants and soldiers, and went to give Wang Zhaoyuan medicine.

Leng Yi helped Yang Xin up and said, "Lord Yang, now please arrange for the re-selection of the overseer soldiers, who must be tall and strong." Is an hour enough? ”

"Enough! I pick it myself. No more mistakes! ”

"...... of your injuries?"

"It doesn't matter, I didn't lie down for a more serious injury on the battlefield, it's okay!"

"Well, this official is waiting for your good news in the yamen!"

Wang Zhaoyuan was ashamed and said, "Lord Yang, I will accompany you with my humble duties, and I will definitely do things well!" ”

The two of them staggered away with the support of their attendants and soldiers.

Those commanders, Du Yuhou and other generals looked at Leng Yi at this moment, and they were all in awe. Leng Yi inspected the yamen of the three yamen, chatting and laughing all the way, and everywhere he went, he greeted the officials there to understand the situation. The officials all thought that the Lord Commander should be approachable.

Before half an hour arrived, Mi Xin, who was guarding the horse army, came in a hurry, sweating profusely, kneeling and clenching his fists and saying: "Report to the commander, two hundred sergeants have been selected." All of them were tall and strong soldiers. ”

"Excellent! You finished it on time, and what is the quality, wait for the official to inspect it with the army in front of the palace. ”

"Yes!"

Leng Yi then inspected everywhere, and after more than half an hour, Dang Jin came with the work plan and held it to Leng Yi with both hands. Leng Yi read it, and Dang Jin explained on the side.

After listening to this, Leng Yi said: "Although it's not good enough, it's already good to take it out in an hour." You can further improve it in the future. ”

"Obedience!"

Not long after, Yang Xin and Wang Zhaoyuan also returned. The report said that the soldiers had been selected, and Leng Yi led the generals to the outside of the yamen, climbed the viewing platform, and looked at the six hundred soldiers lined up in the courtyard below. One is energetic, high-spirited, and very satisfied.

Leng Yi said loudly: "The official family issued an order, let the official be responsible for the construction of Jinmingchi, the official family loves the people like a son, sympathizes with the people's feelings, and can't bear to mobilize too many people, plus many people in the forbidden army are not well trained, pampered and pampered, the combat effectiveness has declined, and military discipline has also been relaxed, this is very dangerous. In a word, not only to build Jinming Pond, but also to improve the combat effectiveness of our forbidden army, the most important thing is to obey the command in all actions, absolutely obey orders, and strictly enforce military discipline! If an army does not have such strict military discipline, it is impossible to defeat the enemy! ”

After a pause, Leng Yi glanced at the reactions of the soldiers before he said loudly: "To achieve this goal, you need all the soldiers. You are the supervisor's team, and your task is to supervise the construction, and if you find any soldiers who do not obey the order to work, or who are lazy and slippery, bring them to the officer, and the officer himself will punish them. In addition, you are also responsible for the selection of the supervisors of the people, in addition to the previous requirements, if you find that the old, young, sick, and disabled people do not meet the requirements, you will also bring them to the official for handling. If you are a good supervisor, the officer will reward you, but if any of you does not perform your duties well and turn a blind eye, the officer will also punish you. When the time comes, don't blame the official for being ruthless! ”

The soldiers shouted in unison: "Follow the commander's orders!" ”

Leng Yi divided the 600 people into 12 teams, each team of 50 people, and divided them into five teams, each team of 10 people, and selected the captain and the team leader. Then a meeting of the captains and captains was called and the basic discipline and requirements were explained. When it was over, it was already evening.

Leng Yi took the plan, got up in a sedan chair and entered the palace, asking to see the official's house.

When the official family heard that he reported on the construction of Jinmingchi, they immediately summoned him.

Leng Yi handed over the construction plan of the three divisions and the construction plan of the three yas to the officials for inspection, and gave a brief explanation. Zhao Guangyi was very happy to hear it and said, "Very good! You are very competent, when are you going to start construction? ”

"As long as these plans are agreed by the officials, the construction can begin!"

"Very good, I just want you to be a resolute person! I fully agree with your plans! You can go back and start working. However, tomorrow morning you have to accompany me to the temple examination, and when the temple examination is over, you will go to supervise the construction site. ”

"Wechen obeys! - In addition, today Weichen punished Li Jilong, the commander of Ma Jundu, Yang Xin, the commander of the palace, and Wang Zhaoyuan, the commander of the palace, who did not obey my orders and delayed the construction of Jinmingchi, especially that Li Jilong, who held his own military merits and looked down on Weichen at all. Weichen beat him with a military stick and wanted to ask the official family to remove him from his post. Let the capable deputy commander replace the party, and at the same time let Du Yu wait for Mi Xin to make up. I don't know if it's possible? ”

"I have already said that it is up to you to decide if you do not obey orders, remove yourself from your post and even behead you. As long as the Jinming Pool is repaired on schedule! As long as it is for the purpose of building Jinmingchi, those generals who do not obey military orders can be directly appointed and dismissed. I will give an order to the three ya. ”

"Thank you, official!"
