A group of soldiers wearing heavy armor stood motionless in front of the barracks, their faces were solemn, the whole person was like a stone statue, but they all had sharp blades around their waists, as long as there was a little wind and grass, they would immediately draw out the long knives on their waists, the blades had drunk blood on the battlefield, the cold was pressing, and they would never show mercy to their subordinates.

The king of Shunyang couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it, it was hard to imagine that these soldiers had thanked him with a wine bowl at the reward banquet, and now that he thought about it, the reason why the soldiers were like this was just because he read out the bereavement benefits that would be issued on behalf of the imperial court.

Sure enough, Xue Shen's subordinates were all strong soldiers.

The king of Shunyang County was introduced into the army, and Xue Shen and An Yihou were already standing there, and there were officials from the Criminal Department and Dali Temple beside them.

On such an important occasion, everyone naturally has to be there.

"These people will be dealt with today? Will it be ......" King Shunyang looked at Xue Shen.

Xue Shen said: "It's too late, if you don't have to go to the yamen to call out the documents to check and want to give you an explanation, these deserters should be dealt with according to military law on the day the soldiers return triumphantly." ”

The king of Shunyang County glanced around, Song Chengxuan, who was leading the army, had not yet arrived, Xue Shen and An Yihou were standing here, obviously wanting Song Chengxuan to preside over the overall situation.

This Lord Song is really the most powerful general under General Xue Bing, but General Xue doesn't know what he has in mind, does he think that this matter is too tricky to deal with, in case something happens, Song Chengxuan can accept it on his behalf, or do you want to watch Song Chengxuan Liwei?

The eyes of the king of Shunyang fell on An Yihou.

The Xu and Song families have already agreed to get married, and An Yihou will not harm his future son-in-law, he is standing here, and eighty percent is the latter situation.

"This Lord Song is really blessed," Dali Temple said normally, "Holding the handle of so many big families in Changzhou, tonight to open the formation to scare and scare those people, tomorrow the Song family will pile up mountains of gold and silver, not only Xue Zongbing lifted him, he climbed up to the Anyi Hou Mansion, this is planning to sit in Changzhou in the future, I can't say that people can still fight a noble, tsk can really dare to think, just with a small Song family, but also want to be knighted." ”

After saying this, he deliberately looked at Li Xu: "I have already become a family, there is no hope, Master Li also has to follow and learn, you can't be stuck in the paperwork all day long, you must also understand the world, so that you can rise to the top in the future...... You didn't see that Miss Xu was outstanding, this can be said to be a number in one fell swoop. ”

Men talk about women, if they have evil thoughts for a while, they will inevitably think of another direction, Chang Yue is obviously like this at this moment, but as soon as Chang Yue thought about it, he was interrupted by a cold voice.

"Master Chang should control his mouth, but also control his own thoughts," Li Xu said lightly, "Don't think about what you shouldn't think, there are still parents, wives and children at home who are looking forward to your return to Beijing." ”

Li Xu's words were unceremonious, with a bit of a threat.

Chang Yue looked over in surprise, Li Xu was gentle and elegant most of the time, but he didn't expect that when he restrained his smile, he was also very scary, his eyes were cold, and there was a deep meaning hidden in it that people couldn't guess.

"Li Xu......"

Li Xu said: "Master Chang thinks that Song Chengxuan is going to make a show for those big clans today?" ”

"You mean," Chang Yue frowned at the bound deserters, most of whom were children of large families, "he really knows how to do it."

How so? ”

Li Xu raised his eyes: "Put yourself in their shoes...... Just think about it. ”

Chang Yue chuckled: "I also put myself in my shoes, but the result I think is very different from that of Master Li." ”

"It can be seen that adults are different from us."

After Li Xu said this, he no longer distinguished from Chang Yue.

Today, the Song family and the Xu family are talking about marriage, and Song Chengxuan will come to deal with these people, presumably she already knew.

The case she investigated was related to the Xie family and the Yan family, and these two families would be present today, she would never miss it, Chang Yue had a lot to say, whether it was Xue Shen or An Yihou Mansion, they were very optimistic about Song Chengxuan.

Naturally, she spared no effort to help.

Li Xu stood there, suddenly felt that the autumn breeze was a little cool, from Feng Xiang's acquaintance to now, seeing Song Chengxuan and Xu Qinghuan coming and going, for some reason, in this matter, he always felt like a spectator, and he shouldn't be a spectator, he didn't like the feeling that everything was out of his control, he didn't figure out many things about Miss Xu, but obviously he didn't have the time to understand.

The entire barracks suddenly became quieter.

Li Xu raised his head and unexpectedly saw Song Chengxuan's figure.

Song Chengxuan was wearing a suit of armor and stood on the school ground, the deserters who were escorted lowered their heads one after another, and some began to tremble, obviously very afraid of this main general of the army who led the sailor to defeat the Japanese Kou.

The surrounding sergeants all stood quietly and obeyed orders, obviously with Song Chengxuan's horse as the head, and there were not many people from Quanzhou, that is to say, most of these people were from Changzhou sailors, but their performance at this time was like Quanzhou soldiers supporting Song Chengxuan, which shows that in the first battle of the Japanese people, they have been completely convinced of Song Chengxuan.

After Song Chengxuan appeared, there were military scribes and people from the yamen who rushed in, and it was obvious that everything would be recorded today for the imperial court to inquire about in the future.

"My son." There was a commotion.

The families of the deserters were put on the side of the school grounds.

Li Xu also saw a figure standing not far away, it was Xu Qinghuan, she really came, she stood from a distance and watched, in order to see the situation today clearly, so as to further deduce the case, she really will not give up, involving Master Huijing, and she is also ready to investigate to the end.

This will be a test for her and Song Chengxuan, Li Xu thought of this and lowered his eyes, if it involves interests, I don't know if the relationship between Song and Xu can be unbreakable.

……

Mrs. Zheng Da looked for Brother Zhi in the crowd.

All the deserters were dressed only in their tunics, firmly tied with ropes, and knelt on the ground with their heads bowed, and for a moment she could not find her son.

The sight was like a nightmare.

She raised her head to look at Song Chengxuan on the high platform, the Song Lord had a straight face, his face was cold, and it made people timid, as if no matter who he was, no matter how he pleaded, he would not be moved.

Mrs. Zheng's heart sank.

"Execution." Song Chengxuan's majestic and deep voice came.

Immediately afterwards all the deserters were lowered to the ground, and the cane of execution was immediately lowered.

The sound of a heavy, clear blow was heard, and all the deserters clenched the sticks in their mouths, not daring to moan loudly.

Those who watched the execution couldn't help crying, no one thought that this Lord Song was so ruthless, and he didn't say more and directly practiced military law.

"How can this be," Old Lady Yan said first, "You are all watching ...... He said that if he escaped, he would flee, and whoever saw it, we couldn't admit it. ”

Mrs. Zheng grabbed Mr. Zheng.

Master Zheng pursed his lips tightly, the sound of hitting in his ears continued, and his palms were already full of sweat, but he finally endured it.

The One Hundred Rods is finally over.

But some soldiers lifted the tall wooden shelves.

"When the battle was fought, he was captured, he fought a hundred, he continued to be charged, and those who re-offended were to be hanged.

They're going to be hanged. ”

Someone in the crowd was already slumped on the ground.

Song Chengxuan said: "Before the war, many of you have already smuggled away, thinking that you are a first-time offender, and you will be punished with a hundred rods, I hope that you will make meritorious contributions to your crimes, and you will not be guilty of the past."

In time of war, but you were ready to flee by boat, and you were not punished that day, but it was the head of the war, and the hundred rods were written down for you first, and then counted later.

At that time, I had already said that I would be hanged according to military law if I escaped again, but some of you still did not repent, and once again swam and fled, and our army almost missed the plane in order to capture you, and your result today is also a warning to our officers and men that anyone who violates military law will be punished according to the law, so as to set an example. ”

Several of the deserters were dragged and hanged.

Someone in the crowd immediately cried out, apparently among them was their children.

Mrs. Zheng watched without blinking, and did not find Brother Zhi's shadow in it, she kept muttering in her mouth, hoping that Brother Zhi would escape.

"There are also people who were captured by the Japanese during the war, and begged for mercy from the Japanese in order to survive, revealing the military situation of our army," Song Chengxuan said and walked down the high platform to those deserters, "Since you choose to follow Rong, you must be prepared, it is inevitable to fight on the battlefield, the big husband should not be afraid of death, let alone betray the country, such a person is not worthy of dignity regardless of life or death." ”

Someone else was taken out of the deserters, and the soldiers with sharp blades were already waiting.

"I don't want to die, I can't die."

A person shouted in a panic, he looked around, and finally his eyes fell on the face of the old lady Yan in the crowd: "Grandfather save me, grandfather ......"

Second Master Yan's eyes widened, and it was his son Brother Zheng who was being escorted to be beheaded.

"You can't kill him." Second Master Yan suddenly shouted.
