In the underground cell of the Secret Bureau, Li Shicheng knelt on the ground and kept begging Lin Daxin to spare him this time, he would never dare to do it again.

Lin Daxin looked at the pitiful fourth cousin who was kneeling on the ground, and his anger had subsided a little, but this kind of thing involving front-line materials was that Lin Daxin had the intention to let him go, and he also had to consider the influence of the entire army, and this case had already spread within the army.

Li Shicheng saw Wang Yan next to him and hurriedly cried to him: "Cousin Wang Yan, you can also help me intercede!" I let my old lady who was a loser, and I all complained about her, so I became greedy, and I was willing to return all the money from the resale of materials! No, no, I'll double it and go back! ”

Wang Yan sighed and said: "Fourth cousin, I knew why I had to do it today, you said that you are not short of money, why bother!" ”

Lin Daxin, who was next to him, sighed secretly in his heart, it seems that he must kill his relatives this time, otherwise he will not be able to explain to the millions of soldiers under him, he waved his hand at everyone and said, "Let's go back!" ”

"Cousin! Handsome! Spare your life! Spare your life! Li Shicheng shouted hoarsely when he saw that Lin Daxin was about to leave.

Lin Daxin left the cell with people without looking back, and he was not in the mood to see Li Shicheng's wife Yang Min again, when he left the gate of the Secret Bureau, Lin Daxin said to Shen Peng: "In a few days, a military court will be held to deal with this case of shoddy reselling military supplies, and try to let them eat better these days!" ”

Wang Yan followed behind Lin Daxin, and shook his head gloomily, this matter has spread throughout the military and administrative system in the entire Northeast, and the impact is quite bad, Wang Yan also understands that the fourth cousin and his wife are in a catastrophe this time.

In the first two days before the military court was opened, Lin Daxin's second uncle and second aunt, that is, Li Shicheng's parents, and Lin Daxin's wife, Mrs. Li, rushed to Shenyang City day and night to find Lin Daxin to intercede with Li Shicheng and his wife.

Without Lin Daxin's order, even Wang Yan, who was in Shenyang City, had no right to stop the military court, so that the fate of Li Shicheng and Yang Min could not be changed.

Mrs. Li looked at her brother and sister-in-law crying, and sighed helplessly, it seems that her son has made up her mind, she knows her son's character very well, if he decides something, no one can change it at all, even if he and his brother and sister-in-law find Lin Daxin in Shenyang City to intercede, this matter cannot be changed.

On January 20, 1899, the Dingbei Military Court in Shenyang City held a trial to accept the case of Li Shicheng, and finally Li Shicheng and Yang Min, who were the main offenders, were convicted of embezzling military materials and sentenced to death and executed immediately. An accomplice was also sentenced to 10 to 20 years in prison and sent to Fushun Prison to serve his sentence.

Then Li Shicheng and Yang Min were escorted to the execution ground, executed, and finally the body was given to Lin Daxin's second uncle and second aunt, the couple looked at Mrs. Li with a helpless face, and put the bodies of their son and daughter-in-law into the coffin that had been prepared long ago, and left Shenyang City with 2 grandsons who had lost their parents, ready to return directly to their hometown in Fujian.

The handling of this case has shocked the administrative system of the entire four northeastern provinces, and an invisible sword hangs over the heads of the officials of the administrative system.

The Dingbei Army and the Northeast Navy, as well as the newly established Northeast Air Force airship unit, got the results of the trial of the military court, and they all applauded, and the morale of the Dingbei Army on the front line was affected by some of the inferior materials, and it quickly rebounded and rose even higher. The marshal can be said to be benevolent and righteous to our soldiers, what reason is there not to serve the marshal, no matter how many troops Russia comes, and fight with Lao Maozi.

When Lin Daxin got the verdict, he had already come to the inner city of Swobod, and was in the headquarters of the 14th Division in the city.

Gently putting the telegram in his hand on the table, Lin Daxin sighed and said to the six division commanders in the division headquarters: "It is not so easy to kill relatives in righteousness, this is to offend my second uncle and second aunt to the end, no matter how Li Shicheng is also my cousin and the son of my second uncle." ”

Yu Lichen, the commander of the 14th Division, said with relief next to Lin Daxin: "Principal, that Li Shicheng and his wife are to blame, and not killing is not enough to appease the army, don't be sad about this matter." ”

Lin Daxin nodded and said: "I know that it is not possible not to kill, so I hid out, the nature of this matter is too bad, if I let them go, how can I face the hundreds of thousands of Dingbei officers and soldiers who are still consolidating their fortifications in this ice and snow!" Forget it, I don't want to, I'm already dead anyway. Let's go, take me to the mountain fortifications outside the city! ”

So the six division commanders of the Dingbei Army who defended the Svobodner system accompanied Lin Daxin to the mountain fortification group about 10 kilometers north of the city, and walked around on several hills, the soldiers saw their marshal come to the front-line position in person, and they were very excited, and the greetings of the marshal came one after another, Lin Daxin smiled and kept saluting the officers and soldiers on the surrounding positions.

Then several division commanders accompanied Lin Daxin back to the inner city of Swobod, and he went on to inspect the fortification system in the city and the reserves of ammunition and materials in the inner city of Swobod.

After returning to the headquarters of the 14th Division in the city, Lin Daxin said to the 6 division commanders with satisfaction: "Yes, the mountain fortifications in the inner city of Swobod and outside the city are very well built, and they can definitely be regarded as solid, everyone has worked hard!" In particular, Yu Lichen praised that the defense system of the entire Svobod is very well designed, and I believe that even if the Second Siberian Front has 780,000 people, don't want to get cheap from you. ”

Yu Lichen hurriedly said: "Most of this defense system is derived from the tunnel combat that the principal talked about when he was teaching our teaching team, and I just drew a scoop from the gourd. ”

Then Yu Lichen stood up and said to Lin Daxin on behalf of the 6 divisions guarding Svobod, 135,000 people: "Principal, our 6 divisions must firmly block the Russian Second Siberian Front, and never let the Russian army step through the inner city of Svobod, and swear to live and die with the city!" ”

Lin Daxin nodded and said: "I understand the mood of the soldiers, but the situation here is different from that of Outer Mongolia Darkhan City, if Darkhan City is lost, we will have no danger to defend, and the Russians can pass through the vast Mongolian steppe and attack our northeast hinterland from all directions, and the northeast is close to the Mongolian city, and we have not built strong fortifications." You are lost here, we can still continue to block the Russian army in many suitable defensive places leading to Vladivostok, and there are also strong fortifications along the Heilongjiang River that can resist the Russian army, so the task of your divisions is to rely on the fortifications in Svobod to eliminate a large number of the living forces of the Russian army, of course, it is best to hold here, so that the whole battle situation will be very beneficial to us! ”

Yu Lichen patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, principal, even if the Russian army comes with another 1 million, don't want to occupy Svobodne in a short time!" ”

Lin Daxin said: "I have formed five new divisions, of which the 36th and 37th divisions will work together with the fifth division returned from Weihaiwei to support the east of the Lena River. As for the other 3 newly formed B divisions, I will arrange them all along the Heilongjiang River, not only to support you at any time, but also to prevent the Russian army's attack on Heilongjiang Province if the inner city of Svobod is lost. So Yu Lichen, this time you command the entire defense system within Swobod, you must grasp the scale, don't fight all the troops with the Russian army, and after the start of the big war, it is strictly forbidden for you to go to the front line of the battlefield, remember that your position is in the command headquarters. ”

Yu Lichen touched his head, and said with a smile: "I know, principal, don't worry, I remember your words." ”

Lin Daxin had to solemnly instruct, otherwise, according to Yu Lichen's character, once the front line is tight, he will immediately take the guard troops to the front line.

Lin Daxin glanced at the map on the wall of the headquarters of the 14th Division again, in fact, he had a trace of thought in his heart, if he could eat the Siberian Second Front Army that was rushing here, then the trend of the whole war would be very beneficial to him, and it seemed that after he returned to Shenyang, he would have to study and study it carefully.

After inspecting the situation in Svobodne, Lin Daxin returned to Shenyang City in an off-road vehicle.

In the residence behind the Governor's Palace, seeing his four wives playing with his mother, Mrs. Li, teasing his two sons, Lin Daxin hurriedly walked over to greet him and said, "Mother, you are here, I really ......."

Lin Daxin didn't finish speaking, but was interrupted by Mrs. Li's hand and said: "Son, you don't need to say it, my mother understands you, if this is shoddy, and the incident of reselling military supplies is not severely punished, how can you face the soldiers who give you your life!" It's just that the relationship between us and your second uncle's family has completely stiffened in the future. ”

Ding Xueshan next to her said in a coquettish voice: "Mother, it's also the fourth cousin who has gone too far, even if Daxin wants to punish him lightly, he can't do it, no wonder others." ”

Mrs. Li sighed and said: "Having said that, I don't have the face to dare to go back to my parents' house in the future, after all, Li Shicheng died in the hands of my son, alas-"

Lin Daxin could only smile helplessly, and didn't say anything, just like Mrs. Li said, after all, the fourth cousin Li Shicheng was shot at his behest, not only Mrs. Li was embarrassed to go back to her parents' house, but Lin Daxin was also worried about how to see his grandfather in the future, but he killed his grandfather's own grandson.
