Chapter 1646: The more hardened you are, the easier it is to confess
The dragoons who had been prepared for a long time, where would they succeed.
As soon as the men pointed their swords at their chests, several dragoon guards stepped forward and slammed their swords against them.
The long sword that was about to poke into the chest was swung away by the dragoon guard with a sword, and before the men could react, their arms were immediately twisted by the dragoon guard.
A group of men were twisted by the dragoons, perhaps worried about what poison was in their mouths, and the dragoons pinched their cheeks and stirred their fingers in their mouths.
After capturing this group of men, Deng Zhan let out a long sigh.
The fine work lurking in the military camp has also been caught, and this group of assassins who intended to assassinate Liu Wei have also fallen into the hands of the dragoons.
As long as these people are interrogated, they will definitely be able to find out the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Take them to the barracks!" His eyes swept around the captured men, Deng Zhan waved his hand and gave an order to the dragoon guards.
Except for the four dragoons standing behind him, the other dragoons responded one after another, twisted the men, and headed towards the dragoon guard camp.
Seeing them leave, Deng Zhan turned around and walked towards the main entrance of the restaurant.
When he arrived at the door of the restaurant, several guards saw that it was him, and did not step forward to stop him, but just clasped his fists and saluted, and watched him walk in.
Entering the restaurant, he went up to the second floor and walked straight to the private room where several palace guards stood at the door.
Standing at the door of the private room, he clenched his fists and bowed inside, and said, "Your Majesty, the thieves have taken them all!" ”
"General Deng, please come in and speak!" Deng Zhan's voice fell, and Liu Wei's voice came from inside.
After Liu Wei's order, a guard opened them for him, and Deng Zhan strode into the private room.
In the private room, only Liu Wei and Sun Shangxiang sat facing each other, and Wang Zhen stood aside with a long sword in his hand.
Seeing Deng Zhan walk in, Wang Zhen arched at him with his fists, and he hurriedly gave Wang Zhen a salute back, and then made a big salute to Liu Wei and said: "Your Majesty's expectation is not bad, the thief learned that His Majesty was here, and he was really ready to move." The meticulous work lurking in the barracks has already been captured for us! ”
"Didn't General Deng think that the one who went to report the news was really meticulous?" Pressed his hand twice towards Deng Zhanxu, Liu Wei motioned for him to sit down, and said with a slight smile: "He's just a reporter, really meticulous, there are others!" ”
What Liu Wei said made Deng Zhan stunned for a moment.
Looking at him with a stunned face, Deng Zhan didn't ask any questions, but his eyes showed puzzlement.
Looking at Deng Zhan, Liu Wei said: "The palace guards are dressed in armor, how can they be obtained by ordinary soldiers?" The meticulous work left by the thief in the dark must have some identity in the army, at least you can transfer your clothes and armor at will! ”
Liu Bian's explanation made Deng Zhan suddenly realize, and hurriedly said: "The last general will go to torture the captured thief......
"General and slow" "As soon as Deng Zhan was about to leave, Liu Wei stopped him and said to him: "Before the general returns to the dragoon guard camp, go to the camp first, and inform the generals in the camp that anyone in the army is not allowed to leave half a step in the past two days!" Delivered by the Palace Guards, when you need it! ”
"No!" Liu Wei's decision showed that he was very concerned about this matter, and Deng Zhan hurriedly responded and withdrew from the private room.
Seeing Deng Zhan leave, Sun Shangxiang sat up straight and said to Liu Wei: "Your Majesty, why do you know that thieves dare to come and assassinate?" In Luoyang City, don't they have the slightest scruples? ”
"Absolutely!" Smiling slightly, Liu Wei said to Sun Shangxiang: "It's just that they were too smooth in their early days, and they are a little arrogant now!" And their purpose is not you, but to want you to make a mistake in Luoyang, so that the Jiangdong Sun clan will immediately send troops to attack the imperial army! That way, they can make a profit! ”
"If anything happens to me, they can not only prompt the imperial court to suspect the Jiangdong Sun family, but also support the distant relatives of the imperial family and be their puppet emperor after the incident has started!" Sun Shangxiang was still puzzled, and Liu Wei then explained: "In this way, is it more beneficial for them to assassinate me, or is it more beneficial to kidnap you?" ”
"What does Your Majesty mean that they kidnapped the little girl earlier, but it was just a helpless move?" The explanation made by Liu Biao was something that Sun Shangxiang had never thought of, she was stunned, stared at Liu Bian, and asked him a question.
Nodding slowly, Liu Wei didn't say anything more, but his actions gave Sun Shangxiang the best answer.
Deng Zhan, who left the restaurant, first went to the Han army camp and conveyed Liu Wei's will to the generals in the camp, and then returned to the dragoon guard camp.
The Dragoon Guard camp is not very large, but the internal facilities are very complete.
Especially in the barracks, there is a row of low rooms, although these rooms are low, but they are all made of bluestone, which is very strong, and is specially used to hold some important prisoners.
Back at the Dragoon Guard camp, Deng Zhan didn't ask anyone where the captured thieves were kept, and walked straight to the low house.
In the aisle outside the house, there were more than a dozen dragoon guards.
Seeing Deng Zhan coming, more than a dozen dragoon guards saluted him one after another.
Nodding to the dragoons, Deng Zhan asked one of them, "In which cell are the people who reported to the Assassins earlier being held?" ”
"The third room on the left hand!" Clenching his fists and bowing, the dragoon guard responded.
Without asking any more questions, Deng Zhan strode towards the third cell on his left.
The door of the cell was hollow, and the door frame was inlaid with many coarse iron rods.
When he arrived at the door of the cell pointed out by the dragoon, Deng Zhan saw at a glance that on the wooden support in the room, a man who had been stripped naked was tied up, and in the room, there were two shirtless dragoon guards, who were sorting out the torture instruments.
Pushing open the door, Deng Zhan strode in.
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, the two dragoon guards hurriedly turned their heads to look over, and when they saw that it was Deng Zhan, they hurriedly saluted.
"How?" Glancing at the man tied to the wooden support, Deng Zhan asked the two dragoons.
"General Hui, we haven't tortured yet!" Maintaining a posture of clenching his fists and bowing, a shirtless dragoon guard replied: "But this person looks hard, and when he was escorted back, he didn't even say a word, and it was not so easy to pry his mouth open!" ”
"There's nothing you can't crack down on here!" Looking at the man who was tied to the wooden frame and did not meet his line of sight at all, Deng Zhan said lightly without emotion: "General Ben personally watched you and waited for torture, you can start!" ”
One dragoon guard who followed Deng Zhan into the house found a straw mat for him, and the other two dragoons moved a low table and placed it in front of the straw mat.
After Deng Zhan sat down, the dragoon guard poured tea for him, and took some meat and preserved fruits, posing as if he wanted to appreciate the torture to extract a confession.
One of the two topless dragoons took a thick leather whip, while the other made a brazier in the house and placed a piece of Luo Tie in the brazier.
They didn't ask the man who was tied to the wooden frame, but the dragoon, who was armed with a leather whip, approached the man, pulled the whip with both hands, and pulled it hard.
The whip made a crisp sound, and the man who was tied to the wooden frame shivered with excitement.
He was not afraid of death, and when he was captured by the dragoons, he even thought about killing himself.
can be tortured to death, but it is a little terrible for him, after all, people are fleshy, and that kind of pain is not something that anyone can bear.
Tied to the wooden frame, the man was annoyed in his heart, and he only hated why he didn't pierce the long sword into the heart faster at that time!
With a twist on his heart, he opened his mouth slightly, and before he could bite down on his tongue, the dragoon guard with the leather whip sneered and said, "Bit, just bite!" ”
Dragoon's careless words made the man unable to speak.
Saying such a sentence so indifferently is already a clear warning to him, as long as he bites off his tongue and has no effect, he will die a very ugly death.
"Bite off your tongue and you won't be able to say anything!" With a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, the dragoon guard walked up to the man and said coldly: "But if you want to die, it's not so easy!" I will play you well, play with you all over your body, and then cut a small cut in your throat, and let you bleed to death little by little! ”
Such words, from the mouth of the dragoon guard, were as indifferent as saying what to eat tomorrow, which made the man goosebumps all over his body.
The dragoon guard, armed with a leather whip, stood in front of the man, tilting his head to look at him, with a grim sneer on the corner of his mouth.
Stared at by him, the man only felt as if he was being watched by a poisonous snake, shivering coldly, but there was nowhere to hide.
"Who are you waiting for to come to Luoyang with the intention of being unfavorable to the imperial court? And how did they blend into the army, and the commander's military supplies were supplied? With the whip in hand, the dragoon finally asked lukewarmly.
"If you have the ability, you will kill so-and-so!" The man was also stubborn, and was forced to confess by the dragoon guards, not only did he not flinch at all, but he turned his heart sideways, his chest straightened, and he roared.
As soon as he let out a roar, Deng Zhan, who was enjoying the tea, smiled slightly and shook his head.
The more he showed his toughness, the faster he often confessed, and Deng Zhan seemed to have seen the dragoon guards get the answers they needed from this mouth.
It's just that Liu Wei said that this person is just a minion who transmits information, and there must be someone behind him to instruct him to get how much useful information can be obtained from his mouth.
Holding the tea, Deng Zhan took a sip, took a piece of dried meat from the clay bowl on the side, put it in his mouth, and chewed it slowly.
The dragoon guard with the leather whip, seeing that the man wanted to show his toughness, did not say anything to him, waved the leather whip twice, and slammed the leather whip towards his body.
With a miserable howl like killing a pig, the man who was still very tough just now was actually trembling all over his body after being whipped by a whip, and there was a long whip mark on his body.
The dragoon guard didn't ask the question just now, but then swung his leather whip again and slammed it at the man!
