Chapter 837: Surviving the Whistleblower
Among the high-level generals of the empire, the attitude towards Luo Wei is generally divided into two factions, one is the conservative faction headed by the old marshal, who despises his bad behavior, and there are also young factions such as Leng Kite and Liu Fusu, who believe that now is the critical moment, and Yuan Bijun belongs to the latter.
Yuan Bijun personally admired Luo Wei, but it really involved a major matter that threatened the country's security, and he didn't dare to be ambiguous, after hesitating for a while, he raised his head and said, "This matter can be done, but it must be reported to the Chang'an Central Committee and apply for a formal search warrant." ”
Zhang Gongbo shook his head, "The death row camps are all cunning people, and when you apply for a search warrant, the evidence that should be covered up is almost destroyed." ”
Yuan Bijun also shook his head, "If you don't follow the rules, I will never agree." ”
"You seem to have forgotten one thing, Lieutenant General Yuan Bijun." Zhang Gongbo's face showed the cunning of an old fox, and he sneered, "What you have taken over is only the personnel changes of the Eagle Banner Army, and the daily training and foreign warfare are not under your control, that is my responsibility." ”
"You" Yuan Bijun just wanted to scold, but found that Zhang Gongbo was right, this matter really did not need his consent, his face became more and more heavy, and finally he could only stare at Zhang Gongbo and say faintly, "Think about it again?" ”
"Don't think about it, I'm ready, right now" Zhang Gongbo was halfway through his words, when a small episode suddenly came, and a herald rushed in without saying hello.
Zhang Gongbo was very unhappy that he was interrupted, he just wanted to scold the other party, but the other party said anxiously first, "Lieutenant General Zhang, someone wants to see you." ”
Zhang Gongbo snorted and asked impatiently, "Who?" ”
"A surname Shen."
Zhang Gongbo suddenly felt funny, where did the stinky fish and rotten shrimp come from? He had never crossed paths with anyone surnamed Shen in his life, so he immediately waved his hand and said, "Let him wait." ”
Instead of retreating, the herald stepped forward and insisted, "Your subordinates think you should meet him first, he claims to be a survivor of the Grand Duke's Mansion of Ottery." ”
"You don't understand my orders" Zhang Gongbo just wanted to be angry at the other party's disobedience, but suddenly the whole person froze in place, his eyes widened, and he asked in shock, "What did you say?" A survivor of the Grand Duke's Mansion of Ottery? Isn't it all over the place?! ”
"It's an Imperial man, and he seems to be a foreign retainer of Grand Duke Ottery, and it is said that he was also present when the slaves revolted, and escaped from the chaos."
Zhang Gongbo hurriedly slapped the table, and his voice was hoarse with excitement, "Quick!" Please let him in! ”
A moment later, with the support of two Eagle Banner soldiers, Shen Ye, who was pale, was brought in, looking from the mud of his pants and dark eyes, he looked like a refugee who had fled, and he didn't know how many days he hadn't closed his eyes.
In front of outsiders, Zhang Gongbo maintained the majesty of his superiors, and immediately spoke, "I heard that you are going to see me, what news can you provide?" ”
Shen Ye seemed to remember something terrifying, Tie Qing's face turned pale, he suddenly knelt on the ground, and began to kowtow and cry, "Lieutenant General!" It's horrible! That massacre was terrible! ”
Zhang Gongbo hurriedly asked, "Who led the slave uprising?" Is it really those black skins who are revolting on their own? ”
"Nope! No! Shen Ye raised his head and said with iron-like firmness, "It's Luo Wei!" Luo Wei colluded with those black slaves and harmed all the nobles of the Grand Duke's Mansion, and he was the culprit! ”
Zhang Gongbo and Yuan Bijun's eyes were round in shock, they glanced at each other, and asked in unison, "Is there any evidence?!" ”
The principle of the Imperial Court is to light confessions and pay more attention to physical evidence.
This kind of provision is to minimize the occurrence of crimes such as the crime of losing the top, unjust, false and wrongly decided cases, and extorting confessions by torture, and if a prisoner is charged with a crime, even if he himself admits it, it is not possible, and there must be strong physical evidence, otherwise it is difficult to sentence.
This matter is the same, because the cost of falsifying such things as human evidence is too low, and it is useless for survivors to stand up and testify against Luo Wei, even if there are ten more hundred people to testify, it cannot be established without physical evidence.
Under Zhang Gongbo's longing gaze, Shen Ye took out the mobile phone from his arms with trembling hands, and handed it over tremblingly, "I was too scared to shoot when the massacre happened, but I photographed this." ”
Zhang Gongbo hurriedly grabbed his mobile phone and opened it to see that this was a long-distance candid photo, Luo Wei was sitting at the dining table with the nobles of the Ottery family talking and laughing, he flipped left and right, there was only such a useful photo.
However, a group photo doesn't mean anything, Zhang Gongbo just wanted to angrily scold Shen Ye for why he didn't take more pictures, but suddenly remembered something, he was shocked, put two fingers on the screen, pulled the photo away, and then looked at it, gasping for air.
Calendars & Wall Clocks!
The calendar and wall clock are in the background of this group photo!
Date Honkai 11/30/15 at 16:31.
It was less than an hour before the slave uprising!
If this picture is revealed in a court-martial, Luo Wei will be greatly suspected, and the judge will surely ask, why are you in the Grand Duke's Mansion of Ottery? What to discuss? Were you present at the time of the slave revolt? If present, why not stop? Where did you go if you weren't there, and who can prove your absence?
After a series of military interrogations, Luo Wei has to take off a layer of skin if he doesn't die!
What's more, Zhang Gongbo just needed a reason to sanction Luo Wei, with this photo as physical evidence, plus Shen Ye's witness, it's enough!
"Now it is suspected that the Red Blood Empire's death row camp colonel Luo Wei tore up the peace treaty and participated in the destruction of the Ortry family of the Federal Heavy Industry Legion, and immediately listed the death row camp as a rebel!" Zhang Gongbo's eyes lit up with raging fire, he pointed at the herald, and a rare battle intent erupted on his body, like a lion, he gave orders, "Life, the Red Blood Empire King has entered the first level of combat readiness, the vacation department is canceled, the Eagle Banner soldiers are assembled, listen to the radio and psionic command network, the armored troops and the Marine Army will immediately surround Skull City, if they encounter any resistance, they will be killed on the spot!" ”
Yuan Bijun's scalp tingled when he heard this, this is a blatant declaration of war! He quickly stood up, slammed the table, and shouted, "Such a major matter should be conveyed to the Central Committee of Chang'an immediately, how can you make decisions without permission?!" ”
Zhang Gongbo showed a cruel smile on his face, he stared at Yuan Bijun with cold eyes, and said profoundly, "Lieutenant General Yuan Bijun speaks for rebels everywhere, as the supreme commander of the Eagle Banner Army during the war, I have to suspect that you have an affair with Skull City, remove Yuan Bijun from his position as lieutenant general, and take him to the dungeon to listen to interrogation." ”
After entering the first level of combat readiness, the supreme commander in wartime is greater than everything, this is written in the textbook, without hesitation, the soldiers of the Eagle Banner Army grabbed Yuan Bijun's arm from left to right and pressed him to the table.
Yuan Bijun glared angrily, and hissed angrily, "Zhang Gongbo!" You are abusing your power, you are rebelling! ”
Since the Northern Expedition in Honkai 7 years, Zhang Gongbo has been very unhappy with Yuan Bijun, and now he finally seized the opportunity, he only sneered and spit out two words: "Take it!" ”
At this time, the power in Yuan Bijun's hands could no longer restrain Zhang Gongbo, and he couldn't do anything other than scold.
After receiving Zhang Gongbo's order, although the herald was surprised by this blatant declaration of war on the death row camp, the soldier took obedience to the order as his duty, and his duty was only to give orders, and he could not say anything superfluous, so he could only run out of the door to prepare for the order.
However, the herald had just opened the door, and before he had taken two steps, he suddenly bumped into a tall figure and broke his head.
The herald opened his eyes cursingly, and was about to ask who was in the way, when he suddenly froze in place, as if something had been defeated in his eyes
The familiar voice accompanied by a faint dragon power came into Zhang Gongbo's ears from outside the door, "Lieutenant General Zhang, don't come to harm?" ”
