readx; Ge Shuhan's army was stationed in the Xianyang area, and before the sky was completely dawn, Ge Shuhan was awakened by a noise, he pushed away the two concubines who were sleeping beside him, and asked unhappily, "Why is it so noisy?" ”

The soldier outside the tent replied: "Back to the commander, it seems that someone has come to complain." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Sue?"

Ge Shuhan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "What is the complaint, go and ask clearly." ”

Ge Shuhan turned over and sat up, he suddenly felt a dull pain in his leg, his chronic illness was a little attacked, Ge Shuhan has been an excellent drinker since he was a teenager, and after drinking for decades, his leg has accumulated diseases, a bit similar to today's gout, as he gets older, especially in the first two years he lived in the alpine region of Dafeichuan, his leg disease is getting more and more serious, and he has an attack every three or five times.

A burst of unbearable pain made Ge Shuhan unbearable, and when he saw the two concubines seeing him in confusion, he couldn't help but shout angrily: "Slut, don't go to get hot water yet!" ”

The two concubines were so frightened that they got up, their bare bodies were not covered, they dressed haphazardly, and went out of the tent with copper basins, and Ge Shuhan's feet could only be soaked in boiling water to relieve the pain a little.

After a while, the two concubines brought a large basin of hot water, Ge Shuhan soaked his feet in, and the pain was relieved a little, at this time, the soldiers came back and reported outside the tent: "Dashuai, there are four or five hundred people, all from nearby villages, saying that our soldiers sneaked into their village at night and forcibly abducted women. ”

"What bullshit, so exciting."

Ge Shuhan was upset, illness was on the one hand, on the other hand, a few days ago, the Chang'an Political Hall meeting, only agreed to make up the food and military resources for the Longyou Army in the establishment, and it was not in one step, it was successively supplied within a year, and at the same time vetoed Ge Shuhan's request to expand the Longyou Army to 100,000, what made Ge Shuhan resentful the most was this, it was because Wang Heng resolutely opposed, Ge Shuhan of course knew that this was actually what Li Heng meant, he did not become the emperor, so he took his anger out on himself, for a few days, Ge Shuhan was angry about this matter, and he was also very cold to Li Heng.

At this time, a report from the soldiers came from outside the tent, "Marshal, the general is here." ”

The full name of the general is Huo Tu Ren, is the former army general of Ge Shuhan, his 10,000 troops, are Ge Shuhan in Hexi and Longyou recruited soldiers, has always been unruly, military discipline is lax, a few days ago he sent his men to look around to find the spies of the Jiannan Army, the sergeants who caused trouble are these soldiers, Huo Bao Guiren also got benefits, his big tent also hid a captive girl, I heard that someone came to complain, he was uneasy, and came to Ge Shuhan's tent first.

"Marshal, there is something to report for your humble duties."

"What's the matter?"

"Dashuai, some of the subordinates of the lowly post had a conflict with the nearby villagers, and they may have captured a few women to come to the camp as hostages, and the lowly official just learned about the situation."

Ge Shuhan's face sank, and it was indeed misconduct, no wonder someone came to complain, he stretched his face and ordered: "You let people go, and the soldiers who violated military discipline will punish me severely, and I will not pursue this matter for the time being, but I warn you, cause trouble for me again, and watch out for your head." ”

"But three women committed suicide."

"Then you say that you didn't catch these three women, you have to bite the bullet, go ahead!"

"Yes! Humble duty understood. ”

Huo Guiren saluted, and hurriedly went, Ge Shuhan closed his eyes, he needed to think about his own way in the future, Li Heng was mean, he had a bad reputation as early as when he was the prince, he thought that he could be the emperor, and he could give himself more benefits when he became an emperor, but he failed to do so, and failure was enough, but this person is the kind of person who betrays his subordinates for his own interests, to put it mildly, he is the kind of ungrateful person, this kind of person is not worth working for.

But if he is like Li Qing'an, he supports the army and stands on his own, Ge Shuhan knows that the time has passed, Li Qing'an has completed the layout of Anxi and begins to look back at the east, if he is self-reliant, Li Qing'an will be the first to destroy him, but if he says that he defects to the emperor, the opportunity is gone, Li Qing'an and Guo Ziyi have occupied a high position, where can he still be accommodated, thinking about it, there is only one way out to take refuge in the old emperor Li Longji.

You don't have to go to Shuzhong, you can go to those fireworks flourishing places in eastern Zhejiang, divide one side by yourself, and live the rest of your life comfortably!

Ge Shuhan was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard a more intense cry outside, crying made Ge Shuhan upset, and roared angrily: "Is there an end? ”

After a while, a soldier rushed to him and said, "Commander, those villagers want to pay for the general's life, and there is a fight outside the camp gate." ”

"His grandmother's, in front of Lao Tzu's door, is in the opposite direction, prepare the horse!"

Ge Shuhan was furious, he had already settled down, these Diao people didn't buy it, if they were in Longyou, who dared to beat the sergeant in front of the Longyou army, it was simply tired.

Geshuhan rushed out of the camp with a large group of soldiers, only to see crying and screaming outside, dozens of women with broken clothes, crying and crying, three corpses on the ground, covered with straw mats, it is estimated that they were the three women who committed suicide, and hundreds of locals surrounded Huo Quy Nhon and a dozen of his subordinates and scolded angrily, Huo Quy Nhon was embarrassed, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, his helmet was torn off, and the armor on his body was also torn off.

But Ge Shuhan didn't pay attention to those people, but more than a dozen officials standing next to him, led by an official, Ge Shuhan knew, it was Wei Zhizhong, the commander of Xianyang County.

"Brother Shu is handsome!"

The camp gate was wide open, Ge Shuhan personally led thousands of soldiers to rush out, hundreds of peasants were so frightened that they retreated again and again, the army was divided to both sides, Ge Shuhan jumped out with a big gun, and said angrily with a heavy face: "Who dares to make trouble in front of my camp gate?" ”

Hundreds of people fell to their knees and shouted, "Brother Shu, you have to be the master for us!" ”

Ge Shuhan said coldly: "I am here for the army, not the government, you have been wronged to find the government." ”

At this time, Wei Zhizhong, the commander of Xianyang County, stepped forward and said: "Brother Shu doesn't know, the grievances suffered by these people are related to your army, and they can only come here to complain to the marshal." ”

Ge Shuhan pointed a big gun at those women and said, "You mean they, haven't you already released them?" What else do you want? ”

Wei Zhizhong is a disciple of the Wei family of Guanlong, he is extremely upright, Xianyang women were collectively captured by the Tang army, this kind of thing has never happened, but it happened under his own rule, although the Geshuhan army is strong, but Wei Zhizhong still can't bear it, and resolutely came to the door.

He heard that Ge Shuhan had the intention of disregarding human life, and he was indignant in his heart, so he angrily refuted: "Ge Shushuai is surprised by this, although he is released, what should the murderer do?" Each of these women was ravaged hundreds of times last night, and three others were ravaged to death, is that all? Where is the law of the land? ”

Ge Shuhan is the dignified king of Xiping County, and he was reprimanded in person by a Liupin county order, where can he get his face down, but his soldiers are really at fault, Ge Shuhan held back his anger and said: "I will investigate the truth, even if I break the law, I also have military regulations to deal with, you don't have to worry about it, you just take these people away, don't be at the door of my military camp, this is military regulations, I can shoot anyone who is unknown within a hundred steps!" Go away. ”

Wei Zhizhong listened to Ge Shuhan's tone with obvious cover-up, what is the truth, where did he go to investigate after driving the victim away, and listen to the words of those tiger and wolf soldiers? Wei Zhizhong shook his head, pointed at Guiren and said: "If the marshal really has this intention, then bring the humiliated woman into the account, identify the murderers one by one, and then the marshal will enforce the military regulations in person, so that he can convince the public, otherwise, whether the marshal has been punished, how do we know?" ”

After a pause, Wei Zhizhong added: "Don't prevaricate with military regulations, as far as I know, an Anxi sergeant molested women in Pinggao County, and the Anxi Army investigated the bottom and found this soldier who violated military regulations, and beat a hundred military sticks in public on the streets of Pinggao County, the same Tang Army, the Anxi Army can do it, why can't the Longyou Army do it." ”

Ge Shuhan was already angry, but Wei Zhizhong compared the Anxi Army again, which undoubtedly poked Ge Shuhan's sore spot, Ge Shuhan's eyes narrowed, and the murderous opportunity burst out.

"If Lao Tzu doesn't care, what can you do?"

Wei Zhizhong was filled with indignation, and said angrily: "If the marshal doesn't care, then I will go to the imperial court to sue the Longyou Army, the military discipline is lax, and the innocent are killed, what is the difference between the Longyou Army and An Lushan's army?" Heaven says that there is always a place where justice can be served. ”

After speaking, Wei Zhizhong turned around and left, Ge Shuhan still counted on the imperial court to allocate money and rice! Where will he be allowed to sue, he was so bold that he suddenly shouted, a shot pierced Wei Zhizhong's back, the tip of the gun leaked out from his chest, Wei Zhizhong screamed, and died on the spot, Ge Shuhan didn't do it, he didn't stop, and he ordered: "Kill me, don't leave a single one!" ”

Hundreds of people were frightened, turned around and ran, how could Longyou let them go, they caught up, guns and bayonets chopped, in a moment, hundreds of people were killed cleanly, and there was no one alive.

Ge Shuhan coldly ordered: "Bring the corpse into the camp and bury it, it is said that someone attacked the camp at night, and the Longyou army was forced to defend itself and counterattack." ”

........ Although Ge Shuhan tried his best to conceal it, but the paper could not contain the fire, a horse officer witnessed the whole process from a distance, he survived, it was his oral account, so that the Longyou army in Xianyang to kidnap the people's women, massacre the family members and court officials, in Guanzhong, in Chang'an City spread the news, a moment of shock in the city, everywhere is talking about the murder of Ge Shuhan's army.

More than 400 people were murdered, including the Xianyang County Order, this kind of appalling thing made the people of Chang'an all indignant, robbing women into the barracks silver humiliation has lost all conscience, but also to kill people, slaughter their families, this is intolerable, for a time, officials from all over Guanzhong have written to ask for Ge Shuhan to be severely punished, if Ge Shuhan can not be held accountable for murder, then how can they protect themselves?

Not only the officials in Guanzhong, but also the officials of the Chang'an Dynasty have impeached Ge Shuhan, and Li Xian in the imperial history is even more angry in the book, "The border army is more than Hu Chief, most of them are born with brutal surnames, if the military discipline is not good, it will be harmful to the people, Ge Shuhan army is only the beginning, the minister thinks that Guanzhong is not suitable to garrison the border army, and when the murderer in Xianyang is severely punished, the border army should be invited out of Guanzhong as soon as possible, and Guanzhong has its own soldiers to garrison." ”

Due to the serious consequences of the Xianyang incident and the growing call for the punishment of Ge Shuhan, the political affairs hall convened a special meeting under the appeal of Zhang Yun, the secretary of the household department.
