Jiang Li Xian had already prepared for this, and two female officers next to him had already jumped out and stopped the surviving person who was about to kneel, so as not to let her head knock down.

These two officers were originally disciples of the Five Pieces Temple, and they were successful in martial arts, and they were capable and heroic in military uniforms.

Li Xian himself got up from his seat, unwilling to accept the worship of the deceased's family.

According to the habits of modern society, after the soldiers of his army killed someone, Li Xian would not sit down arrogantly and bow down to the family of the deceased, and then pretend to be a clean official who is the master of the people.

Li Xian's lax governance of the army made this woman's husband suffer, and he was very unhappy. Li Xian stepped aside, avoided the woman, and said sincerely.

The onlookers were secretly surprised, this Li Xian looked cold and hard-hearted, completely different from Wang Jiuxuan's woman's benevolence, but they didn't expect to show softness at this time.

"This is unfairness and wrongness, everyone actually knows it in their hearts, the justice of the deceased, I, Li Xian, will definitely help preside over it. Li Xian said categorically, and with a wave of his hands, dozens of strong soldiers came out and pounced on Zhang Tongsheng and the dozen or so scholars who demanded justice.

Everyone thought that Li Xian was talking beautifully, and he must have brought the officer who committed the crime up to behead the public, and even if he didn't, he had to punish him well, but they didn't expect that these soldiers didn't arrest the officer, but pounced on the dozen or so thin scholars, and then the two of them worked together to set up the scholars.

Then, another man stepped forward, drew a big sword, and cut off the heads of the scholars.

"Ah!" The onlookers shouted involuntarily, only to say that Li Xian turned his face in anger and wanted to kill all these scholars, and some even closed their eyes and didn't dare to look at it.

Fortunately, these soldiers used their knives in a very measured manner, and they only cut off the braids of these scholars, and did not hurt anyone's lives.

It was only after the pigtails were removed that the soldiers let the people go.

Only then did those scholars react, and those who reacted slowly were still glad that they had escaped the catastrophe this time and saved the head on the neck, and those who reacted quickly had already understood what was happening, and stroked the few remaining braids on the back of their heads in pain.

There were a few bold ones, and they naturally scolded Li Xian.

It's just that Li Xian's city government naturally spit on itself, ignoring it at all, and giving the soldiers a look, and those soldiers dragged the scholars aside to prevent them from hindering the trial.

"Bring the offending officer. Taking advantage of the fact that the audience was stunned, Li Xian quickly ordered.

The murderous officer was then escorted up to the front of the hall.

"Wang Dong, are you guilty?" Li Xian looked at the officer and asked sharply.

"Subordinate... Conviction of sin. The officer wanted to quibble, but after thinking about it, he sighed and pleaded guilty.

"You claim to be guilty, but I'm afraid you don't know what crimes you have committed, and General Ben will list them for you one by one.

The ruling government knows that you are giving porridge to the victims, but you are derelict in your duties, taking profits from it, exchanging good grain for old grain, and making profits from it.

There have long been orders in the army to treat the people well, but you have ignored the laws and regulations, and you have bullied the people in peacetime, which is also a second crime;

When you got into a quarrel with someone in the performance of your official duties, you beat them to death with your skill, and you are guilty of three crimes.

According to military law, you will be sentenced to two years in prison for embezzling money and food, three months in prison for bullying people, and ten years in prison for murder without reason, for a total of 12 years and three months in prison.

"Humble... Defy. The officer wanted to bow his head in convincing, but after all, he raised his head and looked at Li Xian fiercely, his face full of hideousness.

"Since General Wang joined the army, even if there is no merit, there is hard work, and he has fought desperately with the British and Qinggou, and he has never been left behind, and I don't know how many injuries he has suffered in the past year or so.

The person who was beaten to death had been doing nothing in Guangzhou, being lazy and lazy, and he had no credit when the whole of Guangdong was in the pandang.

Such a person is like a stupid pig, and one more or less will not help.

If you kill someone in a lowly position, you naturally understand that you have made a big mistake, but you have to spend ten years in prison for this, but you don't think it's worth it. With that, the officer got up from the ground, tore off his upper clothes, and bare his chest and belly, revealing the scars all over his body.

"Xiaguan fought with Yangyi and Qinggou, and he never rushed to the front, and he did not fall behind, as evidenced by the scars on his body.

I also hope that the commander will look at the sake of his humble duty and bravely kill the enemy, so that he can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy bravely, and atone for his sins with blood, instead of spending his years in prison. The officer was also a brave man, and after speaking, he knelt on one knee and half on the ground, saluted Li Xian again and again, and asked Li Xian to send him to a place like a death camp to kill the enemy desperately, and make up for his mistakes with his military exploits.

At this time, dozens of officers came forward and knelt down together, begging Li Xian to take back his life and allow the officers to atone for their war exploits.

Li Xian stared at everyone coldly for a long time, his face finally softened, and he sighed.

"Wang Dong, I also know that I have always been brave in battle, and I feel that I am a meritorious person, and I was convicted just to kill an ordinary person, and I am a little dissatisfied in my heart, but unfortunately the account is not calculated like this.

You said that this Chen Chao, the hardships on the battlefield will not be less than yours, when the first battle of Sanyuanli and a British officer almost died together, he suffered three knife wounds on his body, and his intestines flowed out, and it took more than ten hours for the military doctor to rescue the person.

and Deng Hai, who was struggling in the trench, was collapsed by a shell, and was buried for several hours before being dug up, and the whole person was almost suffocated to death.

In addition, this Pan Huacheng was almost killed by the enemy's cavalry in the Battle of Umesanegro, and he desperately pulled people off his horse before turning his life into life.

And ,..." Li Xian pointed to the officers kneeling on the ground, and even told the most proud and tragic situation, which was not much worse than the officer Wang Dong, who committed the crime.

"In addition, Ben Shuai seems to be on top, but is there less time when he is born and dies? When he fought with the enemy, didn't Ben Shuai take the lead and fight hard with others, and the injuries on his body were less than that of your company commander?"

Li Xian's words are true, although he is the supreme commander of the first army, Li Xian has always rushed to the most dangerous front line, fighting side by side with the soldiers, sharpening his combat skills, which is very different from the old officers of the Qing court, whether it is Wang Jiuxuan's subordinates or Li Xian's descendants, they are all recognized.

The onlookers of the Guangzhou gentry and the common people did not know that the Huaxia army had experienced such a catastrophe of life and death, but it seemed easy to see that the other party had started a war.
