"So far, I won't lie to you, the guilt you have committed, even if you die ten times, it will be difficult to atone for it, so even if you say it, can I still cut you twice if you say it wrong?"

Pan Wenqi nodded: "Then I'll just say, Dashuai, how about the food and salary that the imperial court has given to our broken army over the years?

Li Jingwei sighed: "I have nothing to hide from this, the following are all brothers in our army, they also know what the situation of our broken formation army is, over the years, the court can be said to be extremely corrupt, and the military salary for our broken formation army is not as good as a year, but it has improved in the past two years, and the military salary, grain and grass can basically be paid on time." ”

Pan Wenqi sneered: "Marshal, how do you think this military salary was earned? If it weren't for the fact that the Tartars had committed crimes in the past two years, those bigwigs in the court would have already put the money into their pockets, where would there still be our share in breaking the formation? The marshal should also understand the truth of hiding the bow of the bird, right? If the Tartars are all gone, who will remember that we broke the formation?"

Li Jingwei was stunned for a moment, and then said slowly: "Then according to what you say, not only do you have no fault, but you also have merit?"

Pan Wenqi was not polite, and nodded: "The last general doesn't dare to say that he has merit, but this matter is worthy of his heart, I am for the sake of our broken army, the people in the court don't care about our life or death, we have to take care of ourselves!"

Li Jingwei sneered: "Then you will privately let the Tartars enter the customs, kill the people, smuggle weapons, and help the abuse?"

"The northern defense can't do without my broken formation army, without my broken formation army, millions of people will be ruined again, but you are like this, what is the difference? If you can't protect the people, what do you want me to do to break the formation, just disband and go home!"

"Also, you said that you are not for yourself, then let me ask you, what are the real money in your house for? Celebrity calligraphy and paintings are used to wipe your buttocks? And those Hu people and beauties, used to be people?"

After saying this, Pan Wenqi lowered his head and didn't dare to make a sound, but just kowtowed to the ground.

Li Jingwei saw that he didn't dare to speak out, and sighed: "Pan Wenqi, let me tell you, what I have in the Broken Formation Army is the backbone, not the copper stench on your body, I, Li Jingwei, am starving to death, and I will definitely not join forces with the Tartars to kill the people, I think everyone here has parents, wives and children, have you ever thought that your parents, wives and children may also be killed by the Tartars, it's ridiculous that you have been hiding from me for so long with Pan Wenqi, this Tianpingguan is really ironclad!"

The 50,000 troops below listened to Li Jingwei's words, and all of them lowered their heads, only to hear one soldier shouting: "Marshal, it's not that we are willing, we really don't dare, all those who talked nonsense before were cut off by General Pan for violating military discipline, we really don't dare to speak!"

Li Jingwei nodded: "Then now give you a chance to speak, you can talk about it, should this Pan father and son die?"

The army of 50,000 shouted together: "Damn it!"

Li Jingwei nodded: "Then I will execute him, do you have any opinions?"

The 50,000-strong army still shouted together: "No!"

Li Jingwei looked at Pan Wenqi: "How about it, this is the meaning of the 50,000 troops under your command, I just obey the will of the people." ”

Pan Wenqi turned around, glared at the 50,000 army viciously, and shouted loudly: "Shut up, shut up for me, I have only taken the benefits of the past few years? I didn't give you a share? Is the military salary treatment of our Tianping Pass the best in the army of breaking the formation? Have I ever been less than one of your salaries? Now that something has happened, why has it all been pushed on my head again, where did you go when you took the silver?"

When the 50,000 army was told by him, they all lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.

Li Jingwei sneered: "Pan Wenqi, you don't quibble there, brothers, our broken army must not suck the blood of the people, so today Pan's father and son, as well as these main generals involved, must die, I hope everyone can understand, after returning to the camp, obey the command of the commanders of each battalion, and there must be no riots, as long as everyone cooperates, I can not blame this matter in the past, but if someone deliberately makes trouble, then I'm sorry, Li's knife is not vegetarian!"

Li Jingwei glared, and the frightened army of 50,000 was silent, and no one dared to say a word.

Li Jingwei looked down, and then said: "After the commanders of each battalion go back, take care of the soldiers under their command, which battalion has an accident, I want your heads!"

The frightened commanders hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Please rest assured." ”

Li Jingwei waved his hand: "Since Pan Wenqi collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and the evidence is conclusive, then today we will enforce the military law and push Pan Wenqi's father and son and the seven generals involved into the gate and behead them to show the public, there must be no mistake!"

Pan Wenqi didn't care about quibbling at this time, pushed away the soldiers around him, knelt down and climbed two steps forward, and shouted with tears in his eyes while kowtowing: "Dashuai spare your life, Dashuai spares your life, I know that I am wrong, I hope that Dashuai will spare my life for the sake of my many years of fighting and some military achievements!"

Li Jingwei waved his hand, stopped the soldiers who came up to drag Pan Wenqi, sighed and said: "General Pan, I know that you have been fighting horses for many years, and you have also made great achievements, I know all these in my heart, but you can't do whatever you want because of your outstanding achievements, if I don't kill you today, this broken formation army will probably be rotten, you can go with confidence, I will take care of your family for you." ”

When Pan Wenqi heard Li Jingwei say this, he knelt on the ground dejectedly, kowtowed three times silently, and never spoke again.

Li Jingwei waved his hand: "Come on, drag the prisoner out of the gate, and behead him at three o'clock in the afternoon to show the public!"

After the soldiers dragged Pan Wenqi and the others down, Chang Sheng walked up to Li Jingwei and asked for orders: "Dashuai, I am willing to execute it myself!"

Li Jingwei nodded lightly: "It's okay, then you will execute it yourself, give them a happy one, after the beheading, the head will be hung in the city for three days, and then it will be collected and handed over to their families." ”

"Pan Wenqi and his gang collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and they have gained countless gains, they must all be investigated and handed over, as for their families, take some money from me and give it to them, in my personal name, anyway, I don't need any money in the army. ”

Chang Sheng hurriedly nodded yes, and then asked Jiang Han: "Big brother, won't you go with me to have a look?"

Jiang Han shook his head: "Forget it, what's so good about killing people, you can just go to the bloody things yourself, I won't go." ”

Chang Sheng couldn't help laughing: "Big brother, why are you still afraid of seeing blood when you walk the rivers and lakes? That's okay, I'll go!"
