Chapter 139: Settle accounts after the autumn
There has always been such a legend about Tai Sui, when Nuwa and Fu Xi created people with mana, they gathered the aura of heaven and earth for 9981 days and gave birth to a meat ball, Fu Xi was furious when he saw this, and he thought that he had created a defective product and threw the meat ball down the mountain, and when the meat ball fell down the mountain, it was smashed into an infinite number of small meat balls, and some of the small meat balls rolled and rolled when they fell, and they grew heads, hands and feet
After these small meat balls fall down the mountain, they become people, and the meat balls that do not become people will escape into the ground and become Tai Sui, according to legend, Tai Sui does not have a lifespan in heaven and earth, they will move underground, very precious, it is said that Qin Shi Huang looked for the elixir of life, this Tai Sui is one of the medicines, and there are rumors that eating Tai Sui can make the body strong and prolong life
Tai Sui is definitely an unavoidable species, even if you have money, you can't buy it if you want to, Ah Cha Lan came to give a big gift to the general Lei Qi this time, Lei Qi also gave the Xuanjin war knife he carried with him to Ah Cha Lan, it is said that this Xuanjin war knife is cast with extraterrestrial meteorite and black iron quenching for 7749 days, this knife is not only extremely sharp, sharpening iron like mud, even evil people can avoid its three points
When Ah Cha Lan pulled the Xuanjin war knife out of the scabbard, a cold light should be in front of him, and there was a criss-cross and messy pattern on the knife surface, when Ah Cha Lan saw the bright Xuanjin war knife in his hand, he couldn't put it down like a child getting the toy of his dreams, and Lei Qi sent this Xuanjin war knife to Ah Cha Lan's heart
Zuo Yushi coughed lightly in Tianlu and continued to preside over the military discussion on meritorious deeds: Shaoxing pioneer Niu Yongnian led his troops to fight bravely and was promoted to the highest official rank of Shaoxing Xiao Cavalry Captain, and rewarded the Shaoxing army with 30,000 taels of silver, and the required pension will be issued by the household department after the Shaoxing army returns to the territory
Yuan Bin, the Taizhou guard, was promoted to the Taizhou general and officer of the fifth rank, and the staff general Yuan Ji was promoted to the official rank of Taizhou guerrilla captain from the fifth rank, and the Taizhou army was rewarded with 30,000 taels of silver
The Alan County People's League made the first contribution to quelling the chaos this time, and specially promoted Li Yang, the commander of the Alan County People's League, to the rank of captain in northern Taizhou, and promoted the commander of each battalion of the Alan County People's League to the eight-rank military officer, and the specific matters will be reported to the state capital yamen for decision by the prefect
There are very few officials who can be promoted to three levels in a row in the officialdom, if anyone catches up, it is ugly to say that it is green smoke on the ancestral grave, but Li Yang was promoted to 8 levels in a row this time, from a cloth cloth to a six-grade captain, if this matter was put on others, he would not dare to dream of this, since Li Yang's position as a garrison in northern Taizhou was dismissed by the national capital
The general Lei Qi has always wanted to give him a half-official position, but he has not been able to find a suitable opportunity, this time the rebellion Alan County militia has made a head, and it is a golden opportunity to be able to speak, Lei Qi said hello to Yu Tianlu in advance, otherwise Li Yang would have that good life to be promoted to 8 levels in a row
But as soon as the will of the meritorious deeds reward is recited, some people will not be happy, Shaoxing Xiao Cavalry Captain Niu Yongnian got up and bowed to Lei Cai: The last general has always been rewarded and punished clearly for the general to govern the army, and in this counterinsurgency, Li Yang he committed the following crimes, beat the officials in public, and also connived at his subordinates to fight with the Shaoxing saber, even if he made the first contribution, he could not be promoted to 8 levels at once, and I implore the general and the adults to support justice for the last general
As soon as Bai Sheng, the head of the household department, and Yang Qian, the historian of Zuo Zhengshi, heard Li Yang, the first thing they thought of was that Li Yang had privately opened 200,000 mu of land in northern Taizhou and shocked the government and the opposition to get private grain
Bai Sheng: If Lord Yu is punished according to military regulations, he will be killed if he beats the officials in public
Yu Tianlu: According to military regulations, if you commit a crime, you will be punished with a battle or a heavy death
Niu Yongnian was secretly happy in his heart when he heard that he could kill his head, Li Yang This time your little fate is planted here: Li Yang also connived at his subordinates to fight against Shaoxing Sabre, if he is not severely punished, it may be difficult to convince the public, and he also asks the general to make a clear decision
Lei Qi put his arm on his leg and glanced at Yu Tianlu, and Yu Tianlu understood his intentions: Li Yang, why do you want to commit the following crime
Li Yang expected that there would be such a move when he started to beat Niu Yongnian, but he didn't expect that the situation would be so serious that he would lose his head, and when it came to life and death, Li Yang did not panic at all, but was more calm and calm, and his thoughts became clear, if he wanted to save his little life, he could only find a way to fight for a lighter hair
So he bowed to all the adults: Your lords, the grass people beat the cattle general, it was because he and several Shaoxing soldiers teased the grass people in front of the grass people's brother and daughter-in-law, who can bear it and who can't bear it, so he taught him a lesson
Zuo Zhengshi Yang Qian: Then you can't condone your subordinates fighting privately with the Shaoxing army
Li Yang: Ladies and gentlemen, I think you have misunderstood, there are no subordinates of the grass people in the Taizhou army, and when the grass people beat General Niu, the Shaoxing soldiers who watched wanted to come up to help him, and the Taizhou soldiers who were watching stepped forward to pull the frame were said by General Niu to be swords and brothers, and the Alan County militia belonged to the Taizhou Army to help pull the frame should not violate military regulations
Niu Yongnian glared at General Li Yang: My lord Li Yang, he is clearly quibbling, the Taizhou Army and the Shaoxing Army present that day are really fighting with real knives and guns, and you still have to think about it
Li Yang: You can really be blind, it's obvious that your Shaoxing army moved the knife first
Niu Yongnian raised his hand and pointed at Li Yang: You are just blind, it is obviously the Taizhou army that moved the knife first, and the Shaoxing army followed the knife
At this time, Yuan Bin coughed lightly: General Niu Originally, this was a private matter between you and him, why did you pull the Taizhou army into it again, I saw that day, and there were only six or seven people who moved the knife, which was not as serious as you said, and the brothers were more nervous after being surrounded by the enemy's heavy troops for so many days, and it was reasonable for a few people to overreact
Saying that, Yuan Bin looked at me: Li Yang, you didn't do it right, you shouldn't have beaten General Niu in front of so many people and beat him with black eyes, what are you still doing there, why don't you hurry over and compensate General Niu
Yuan Bin's words were understood by everyone present, what kind of offense was conniving at his subordinates, it was all nonsense, in the final analysis, Li Yang beat Niu Yongnian in front of so many people, and the beating was quite serious, which made him feel embarrassed in front of his brothers, and he was obviously taking the opportunity to deliberately make things difficult
Li Yang reacted immediately, he hurriedly bowed to Niu Yongnian, and his attitude was very sincere: General Niu was indeed wrong that day, and the grass people are here to apologize to you, and I hope that General Niu will not be like a rough person like me
Li Yang made such a mistake that Niu Yongnian was in a dilemma, you said forgive him, I really can't swallow this breath in my heart, if you don't forgive him, it will make all the adults present feel that they are not generous enough, and when they see Li Yang's sneering smile, it is not a sincere apology at all, this Niu Yongnian was stunned and twisted his body towards Yu Tianlu and the others without saying a word
Seeing this, Li Yang also followed: General Niu, you really can't get angry, if you can't do it, you can beat me up and get angry
Niu Yongnian: Military regulations are a tool for building a country, and it is not something you can bargain for when you buy things in the bazaar
Hubu Shilang Bai Sheng: General Niu said that the importance of governing the country is clear in rewards and punishments, and the rewards and punishments are unclear - everything is not successful - rewards and punishments are clear - the Quartet can do it, and it is better to let him make the merits offset by his efforts to quell the rebellion
Yang Gan: No reward for merit - no punishment for mistakes, this official has the same consciousness as Lord Bai
Niu Yongnian looked at it, isn't this going to turn a big thing into a small thing, that's not good: if an adult commits a capital crime of killing his head, the merits and demerits are too light, and it will be unconvincing in the end
Yu Tianlu: Li Yang punished you according to military regulations, and this official can take your head as an exciting person, and you can avoid the crime of living if you make the first contribution to the death penalty in this counterinsurgency, and this official will punish you for 40 sentences, and you can admit punishment
As soon as Li Yang thought about saving his life, he would hit a few times: the grass people are willing to be punished
After speaking, Li Yang looked at Yuan Bin with a pitiful look, Yuan Bin knew that he was asking for help from himself, if the 40 army battle really went on, his small body would die if he didn't get it right, and even if he carried it, he would fall into some stubborn diseases
So Yuan Bin took the initiative to ask for orders: Your Excellency Alan County People's League belongs to the Taizhou Army, please allow your lordship to carry out the military battle in the future
Yu Tianlu: Then there is General Lao Yuan
Li Yang and all the adults present came to the outside of the military tent together, Li Yang took a few steps forward, untied his clothes and lifted his back to expose his back, and Yuan Bin took the torture battle from the soldier's hand and then spit on his hand, when he raised the torture battle, he did not forget to remind him in advance: You hold back, I am going to do it
Li Yang held his breath, his arms were pulled back, and the muscles in his back were tightened, so that the muscles constricted in the back could play a role in protecting the spine, and it wouldn't take long for the flesh to be broken, but if the spine was injured, it would be bad, and he would be branded with a stubborn disease, Yuan Bin saw that Li Yang was ready, and his hands were ready, so he grabbed the torture battle and hit him on the back
To tell the truth, Yuan Bin really can't bear to give this hand to Li Yang, but if he changes someone else's hand, he doesn't have a weight, these 40 military battles may not make him what he will be, he can master the severity of his own hands, so that he can suffer less, Yuan Bin seems to be full of strength when he starts, but when the torture battle is about to hit the back, he will take back some of his strength, which is really bad for the old thing
Whenever the torture battle hit Li Yang's back, it was followed by a scream, but this was all pretended by him for those people next to him to see, if the torture hit me, I didn't react at all, wouldn't that matter be a gang, what he didn't expect was that Niu Yongnian, the old boy's eyes were quite poisonous, and he could see that it was greasy
When the 15th Army was fought, Niu Yongnian stood up: General Yuan, I see that you are a little tired, why don't you replace me
Yuan Bin threw the torture battle to the ground: General Niu said that I am not tired at all
Niu Yongnian bowed to Lei Cai: The general Alan County militia is subordinate to the Taizhou Mansion, and General Yuanbin, as a superior, should be recused, and the last general is willing to ask the general for permission to carry out the battle punishment by the end of the future
Niu Yongnian almost said that Yuan Bin deliberately favored Li Yang, but Niu Yongnian's words were not unreasonable, this time the counterinsurgency belonged to the Shaoxing Army, the casualties were the largest, 5,000 people, and now there are less than 800 people left, if you want to appease the Shaoxing Army, you have to appease this Niu Yongnian first, after weighing the pros and cons, Lei Qi sighed secretly in his heart, Li Yang can only wronged you, kid, suffer a little more, "General Yuan, let General Niu come, you rest for a while"
Yuanbin: The general has now hit 15 times, so let's let the last general make it up
Seeing that Lei Qi didn't squeak, Niu Yongnian was not good at what he was saying, Yuan Bin was also interesting enough, relying on that old face to prevaricate for Li Yang and prevaricating for the past 5 times, as for the remaining 20 military battles, it depends on your own creation, after the 5 army battles, Yuan Bin threw the wooden stick towards Niu Yongnian
Niu Yongnian took over the torture battle and tried his best to hit Li Yang in the back, he couldn't wait to beat Li Yang to death, as early as when the Maple Village suppressed bandits, the two of them formed a beam because of their military exploits, this time he beat Niu Yongnian in front of the Shaoxing soldiers, and the family didn't kill you when they caught the opportunity
After a dozen or so army battles, Li Yang gritted his teeth and was stunned, at this time, his back had already been beaten to a bloody blur, and the severe pain made him sweat profusely, and even his limbs trembled, which made the onlookers Ah Cha Lan and Meng Ang and others admire, no one thought that this seemingly weak scholar could be so strong
When the last hit came, Niu Yongnian used all the strength to eat, but the position he was aiming at this time was not the back but the thoracic vertebrae, if the thoracic vertebrae were broken, then this person would be completely abolished, the generals Lei Qi and Meng Ang saw Niu Yongnian's move at once, because he was too anxious, Lei Qi just wanted to shout to stop and was choked by himself, "cough-cough" It was this move that distracted Niu Yongnian's attention
Meng Ang picked up a fingernail-sized stone from the ground when people were not paying attention, he aimed at Li Yang's back knee and bounced out the small stone, a sudden inch hit the back knee, Li Yang's body couldn't help squatting down, at this time the torture battle happened to hit his back, only to hear a "click" The torture battle was interrupted, and after the 40th army battle, Li Yang's body leaned and fainted
Gao Yuan and Yuan Kui, as well as the leaders of the militia group, witnessed the whole process of the battle and punishment, although the military battle was fought on Li Yang's back, but everyone was like a knife and couldn't bear to look at it directly, when they saw Li Yang fainting, everyone rushed up and carried him back to the camp
At this time, the general Lei Qi became serious: Is General Niu satisfied with the Shaoxing army this time
Niu Yongnian gave his hand: The general governed the army with clear rewards and punishments, so that the general was impressed
Before, Meng Ang and Meng Ying and 2,000 Ningbo troops were captured by the Barbarian Jiang army, thanks to Li Yang's mediation of 2,000 Ningbo troops and Meng's father and son, they were able to save their lives
Meng Ang bowed to Lei Cai: The general has one more person to punish this rebellion
Lei Qi: General Meng doesn't have to be polite, you might as well say anything straight
Meng Ang: The person who should be punished by the general is Niu Yongnian, the cavalry captain of Shaoxing, and the defeat of the coalition army in Huangguling was caused by Niu Yongnian leading his troops to escape
Then Meng Ying followed and stood up: General Niu was greedy for merit and rushed into the enemy's trap and was surrounded by Huangguling, General Niu sent people to ask for help, and my father immediately led his troops to Huangguling to rescue after learning about it, as long as the Shaoxing army and the Ningbo army were able to break out of the encirclement together, but just opened a gap, General Niu escaped with the Shaoxing army, and my father and I were captured because of the siege of my father and the Ningbo army
Niu Yongnian's face instantly lost blood after hearing this, the most taboo thing about the two armies fighting is to escape from the battle, it doesn't matter if the battle is lost, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, but it is not the same as escaping from the battle, it will cause the rout of the entire battle, besides, people are there to save you, you leave people behind and run away by yourself, this thing is too unkind
It just so happened that the general Lei Cai was extremely disgusted with the people who escaped from the battle: General Niu remembered that you had made a contribution to quelling the rebellion this time, and the general would punish you for 40 military battles, you can admit the punishment
Lei Qi also wanted Niu Yongnian to experience what it was like to be beaten by the 40th Army, the 40th Army Battle was already a light blow for Niu Yongnian, Niu Yongnian arched his hands and responded: The last general will admit punishment
At this time, Meng Ang gave Meng Ge a look, and Meng Ge immediately understood that he would step forward and ask the general for his life: if the general let the following actions lose the face of the general, the last general begged the general to allow the last to take charge of the army
This is still feng shui in turn, Niu Yongnian beat Li Yang to vent his personal anger, and Meng Ge beat Niu Yongnian to vent his anger for those Ningbo soldiers who died because of it, Niu Yongnian looked at Meng Ge's five big and three thick physique and frightened him to take a few steps back
Lei Cai: Then there's General Lawmon
Niu Yongnian: The general had some personal grudges with the Montessori, and asked the general to be sympathetic to the general and change the person to carry out the execution
Lei Qi: Then you can ask them who is willing to do it for them
There are only a few officials present, Yuan Bin and Ah Chalan will definitely not help him, Yu Tianlu and Yang Gan are both civilian officials, not to mention, you can't let the general personally execute for you, if you just find a soldier to execute it, it will be too damaging to face
As soon as Gao Yuan and Yuan Kui heard that Niu Yongnian was also fined 40 military sticks, they hurriedly ran out of the camp tent to think about the excitement, and when they saw that Niu Yongnian was looking for someone to execute there, Gao Yuan wanted to take this opportunity to avenge Li Yang, Gao Yuan volunteered to take the matter down, but he was glared at by Lei and retreated
No one is willing to come out to help him, then it can only be executed by Meng Ge, Meng Ge is not ambiguous at all, a few times on the dry fold of a military battle, only a few times Niu Yongnian on the pain of rolling all over the ground, Meng Ge's purpose is very simple is to beat him to death for more than 200 dead Ningbo soldiers to avenge, more than 20 times after the two torture battles Niu Yongnian completely fainted, Yuan Bin saw this and called a few Shaoxing soldiers to carry Niu Yongnian back
When Li Yang woke up, it was already noon the next day, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Gao Yuan, Yuan Kui, Li Zuo and others guarding themselves, "How long have I been lying down?"
Gao Yuan: You lay down for a day
As soon as Li Yang wanted to get up from the bed, there was a tearing pain in his back: Oh, no, come and help me
Li Zuo and Li You grabbed my arm with both hands and helped me up, and when I came together, I felt something slimy on my back: what should be on my back, which of you can help me take it off
Yuan Kui: You can't take this, it's a herb sent by Acha Ran, and he specially instructed that this herb should be applied for three days so that your injuries can heal as soon as possible
Gao Yuan: Yesterday you were just beaten by Niu Yongnian, Niu Yongnian was fined 40 military sticks for escaping from the battle, Meng Ge was a ruthless person who beat him more than 20 times and he fainted to death
Yuan Kui: Brother Meng is a bad breath for our brother
At this time, Li Yang's stomach gurgled: I'm a little hungry, can I eat ready-made?
Li Zuo took out a half-pulled flatbread from his arms: Cousin, I still have a half-pulled flatbread here
As he spoke, he handed it over, and Li Yang took half of the flatbread and made it: Go and go out with me
Li You approved a piece of clothing on Li Yang and walked out with everyone, casually turning around the double horse camp: How do you feel that there are a lot of people in the camp
Plateau: The Taizhou Army, the Shaoxing Army, and the Ningbo Army set off yesterday afternoon to return to their garrisons, and now there are only the Trap Mountain Battalion, the Fire Trap Battalion, the militia group, and the southern border army left in the Shuangma Battalion
Yuan Kui: Shouldn't we also pack up and go back to Alan County?
Li Yang: Tell the brothers to pack up their things and go back to Alan County early tomorrow morning, and I will only have a word with the general
Gao Yuan: Okay, you can go, you don't have to worry about the rest
