Chapter 697: Blood for Blood, Tooth for Tooth
"Since you brothers are united, then the teacher will fulfill you."
Yang Ling nodded slightly, but he was a little relieved.
Even if the executioner showed mercy and a hundred military sticks went down, Jiang Wei was afraid that he would have to peel off his skin.
And Deng Ai and Biqiu Jian took the initiative to stand up and share the burden for Jiang Wei, which is also a good thing.
It also proves that the friendship between their brothers is deep.
As Yang Ling's order was passed on, it didn't take long for all the soldiers to gather in the center of the camp.
"General Fenwei (Jiang Wei's official position) lightly advanced the enemy, so that he lost many brothers, and the two generals Jianwei and Zhenwei (Deng Ai and Biqiu Jian's official positions) walked with him and failed to play a role in exhorting."
"In order to punish them, the king of Qi ordered that each person be punished with thirty rods, and they should be executed in public as an example."
As the herald finished reading, the three Deng Ai brothers took the initiative to step forward and lay down on the bench.
"Three generals, offended!"
The soldier in charge of the execution said in a low voice, then raised the long stick in his hand and fell heavily!
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
The entire barracks was silent, only the dull sound of the cane echoing around.
Gan Ning, Wei Yan and others on the side, although they couldn't bear it, they didn't step forward.
Because they knew that Yang Ling was using this to warn all the soldiers.
After all, for so many years, the Wei army has been invincible, and there has been a sense of pride in the army.
In a short time, the thirty sticks were finished.
Yang Ling slowly stood up, walked in front of Deng Ai and the others, and said in a deep voice,
"Have you three learned your lesson?"
The three of them endured the pain, knelt down in front of Yang Ling, and said respectfully,
"Back to the teacher, we will definitely not repeat the mistakes of the past!"
"Good!"
Yang Ling nodded and reprimanded,
"It's not that you can't accept defeat as a teacher, but you can't accept that you lose so humiliating!"
"Our Wei army is a division of a hundred battles, and it is a shame to overturn in the hands of a small country like Goguryeo!"
"Please rest assured, teacher, we will wash away the shame of this time!"
Jiang Wei gritted his teeth and said.
Yang Ling didn't say anything anymore, looked up at the soldiers present, and said in a loud voice,
"If they make a similar mistake again, the three of them will be doomed, do you remember?"
Deng Ai and the others were Yang Ling's top disciples, and they were punished if they made mistakes.
Seeing this situation, everyone's hearts sank, and they said in unison,
"We will remember the orders of King Qi!"
Yang Ling smiled with satisfaction, and was just about to order the disbandment.
But he saw a few war horses, galloping in from outside the camp.
After coming to Yang Ling, the riders on horseback jumped down and saluted him.
"I've seen King Qi!"
"Just now, Goguryeo sent a few envoys, and after leaving a few burdens, they left in a hurry!"
"We didn't dare to be careless, so we hurriedly sent this burden over."
Looking at the burden of blood dripping down from their hands, Yang Ling's face became solemn.
"Turn it on!"
Several riders did not dare to slack off and quickly opened their burdens.
As the burden was untied, the bloody heads were revealed.
Jiang Wei, Deng Ai and others on the side were in an uproar in an instant.
Because they all recognized that these were the elite horsemen who followed Jiang Wei to search for the Goguryeo people!
"Bastard Goguryeo!"
Jiang Wei suddenly jumped like thunder, and almost didn't crush his teeth.
"The Goguryeo people sent these heads to provoke our Great Wei!"
Gan Ning looked at Yang Ling, his eyes almost erupted with fire,
"We can't afford to be indifferent!"
Everyone's eyes looked at Yang Ling in unison.
"You don't need to say it, Lone naturally knows."
Yang Ling took a deep breath, pointed to these heads, and said to all the soldiers,
"You see, these are your brothers, your robes!"
"However, when they fell into the hands of the Goguryeos, they suffered inhumane torture."
"Their heads were cut off by the Goguryeo people and sent back to our army to humiliate us."
"You tell Lonely, what should we do?"
The first to respond was Deng Ai.
He raised his weapon and roared,
"Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!"
In a fit of rage, he stopped stammering.
"Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!"
"Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!"
"Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!"
All the soldiers of the Wei army also let out an earth-shattering roar.
The sound soared into the sky, and the heavens and the earth seemed to change color!
"Zilong, Xingba!"
"The last general!"
"Immediately reorganize the troops and horses and prepare to attack the Goguryeo."
Yang Ling coldly commanded,
"Lone's request is very simple, as long as you surrender, you can avoid death."
"But if you refuse to surrender, you will be killed."
"After the city is broken, if you don't seal the knife, you will slaughter the city for three days!"
"In addition, those who participated in the murder of our soldiers will be beheaded all over the house!"
Everyone has known Yang Ling for so long, and they know very well that Yang Ling rarely orders the slaughter of the city.
In the early years, he even admonished Cao Cao and did not let Cao Cao slaughter the city.
It can be seen that Yang Ling is angry!
Even Zhao Yun, who has always been gentle and benevolent, did not persuade him, but accepted the order with Gan Ning.
Yang Ling was just about to turn around and leave, but Deng Ai, Jiang Wei, and Biqiu Jian hurriedly stopped him.
"These soldiers were brutalized by the Goguryeo people, and they have something to do with us."
"Please also ask the teacher for permission, we will avenge them!"
Jiang Wei said sincerely.
"Can you still fight?"
Yang Ling looked them up and down.
"Absolutely!"
Biqiu Jian immediately responded.
If you were someone else, you would have to recuperate for at least ten days and half a month if you were beaten with thirty military sticks.
But the three of them were young and strong, and the soldiers who executed them also deliberately released the water.
Therefore, they only have some flesh wounds, which does not affect the killing of the enemy.
"In that case, Lone will allow you to make meritorious deeds."
Yang Ling nodded, looked at Zhao Yun and Gan Ning on the side,
"The three of them will be under your command, and if there is any further mistake, military law will be involved!"
……
The other side.
Wei Gong didn't know that he had pierced the sky.
After killing the Wei prisoners, he led the Goguryeo army and withdrew to the city of Susheng Bone first.
The Bone City is not far from the capital of Goguryeo, Marudu, but it is some distance from the border.
The plan of the palace is to wait for the arrival of the Wei army while lengthening the supply line of the Wei army.
He secretly sent several units of cavalry, preparing to harass the rear of the Wei army.
However, while he was enjoying the performance of the palace maids, he saw Pei Zhilai running in in a panic.
"Your Majesty, something is wrong!"
"What's wrong?"
Wei Gong was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked.
"I just received the news, the vanguard of the Wei army is rushing towards this side!"
"Huh?"
Wei Gong was taken aback.
He originally thought that after the Wei army was frustrated, it would take a break.
But I didn't expect it to come so quickly!
Wei Gong came back to his senses and smiled disdainfully,
"It's coming, I'm still afraid that they will withdraw like this!"
