They had agreed on a big thing, and the four people, who had overworked their brains, were all a little depressed. After saying good night to each other, they joined hands and walked towards the two opposite tents.

After carrying the sleeping Hong Ye into the tent, Ying Qi and Mei Lin had already cleaned the other two tents, put on new bedding, and prepared charcoal basins, as well as hot water for washing their faces and soaking their feet.

Seeing Shen Haolin and Shen Cha walking in together, Mei Lin saluted them and stepped out of the tent.

After washing their faces and soaking their feet, they relieved the fatigue of the day. The two of them, who had been tired for a whole day, lay on the slightly narrow couch. They wanted to chat about each other's thoughts again, but not long after they got into bed, Both fell into sleep.

There were no accidents that night, and it passed smoothly. At the fifth watch of the day, the sound of military gongs suddenly sounded, and in an instant, the silent military camp became extremely lively.

Shen Haolin and Shen Cha got up before the gong sounded. After washing, they asked Ying Qi and Mei Lin to get their armor. After putting it on, they left the tent and walked towards the marshal's tent.

At the entrance of the big tent, the generals, deputy generals and their personal guards of each battalion in the army had all arrived. After seeing the marshal, they all saluted and said hello.

Shen Haolin waved his hand, signaling everyone not to be too polite, and led the generals towards the school grounds.

In the school grounds, all the officers and soldiers of the army, including dozens of handymen in the army, were waiting in line. Some of them were well-informed people who knew more or less what happened last night.

"Lao Zhang, don't you have fellow countrymen in the Chinese army? Why did the marshal rush to recruit the generals last night? I heard that they were discussing something and it was time to update. When he came back, he ordered us to gather at the school ground this morning. Looking at this posture, not only Our Pioneer Battalion is related to the entire Shen Family Army. What exactly happened, can you tell us brothers first?"

"My fellow countryman happened to be in charge of patrolling outside the commander's tent last night. There was quite a lot of movement inside, with whips being whipped and people being beaten. It was really more lively than the opera." Captain Zhang, whose name was called, lowered his voice and said. , "Actually, it's not a major military incident. Just the few cooks in the dining room, you know? They got drunk in a crowd, left their posts without permission, and were caught by the marshal. There was also a brave one who rushed into the rear army while drunk. Lieutenant General Song from the Tiger and Wolf Camp."

"This is a life-threatening situation. Who is Vice-General Song? You dare to rush into him? Do you think the thing around your neck is too cumbersome and you want to take it off?"

"Isn't that right? Others can't stop you from committing suicide. Look at that..." Zhang Xiaowei motioned to everyone to look at the newly erected high platform. "The executioners have appeared in the army. How many of them do you think?" Can we still get the goods? My fellow countryman said that the marshal was determined to rectify the military style and discipline, so he wanted to publicly execute the people in front of the entire army. Today he will execute the scum in the army, and tomorrow he will execute the enemy's elite in front of the whole city. Marshal As expected of a marshal, this move is really brilliant!"

"So, he is a marshal, and we can only be soldiers! But let me tell you, most of these rough and tumble servants are still very good."

"A rat's excrement ruins a pot of good soup. No matter how good it is, it still doesn't crawl out from the dead with us. It doesn't have the same heart as us."

"That's right. The rule of prohibiting alcohol in the army is not only set for us, but they must also abide by it. If you break the rules of the army and offend a big shot who can't be offended, they deserve their misfortune. There is no way to sympathize with such scum. .”

"Keep your voice down. I heard that those scum also have many fellow villagers who are doing well. If they hear it, they will come back to cause trouble for you."

Such conversations were taking place in many queues throughout the Shen family army, and the content was almost the same. Soon, all the soldiers knew what had happened, and why they had gathered here all morning.

Surrounded by all the generals, Shen Haolin came to the school grounds and climbed onto the commander's stage. He looked at the soldiers under the stage and nodded towards Xue Ruitian.

Xue Ruitian basically does all the work of speaking in front of the entire army and inspiring people. This guy is particularly talented in language and can make a plain matter very vivid and attractive. Moreover, this guy is very talented in language. , this guy has an extremely high voice, and if he uses his inner strength, his voice can be heard for miles. This is something that neither Shen Haolin nor Shen Cha can match.

Seeing that the Shadows had already escorted the seven people headed by Lu onto the high platform, Xue Ruitian pointed at them, explained their crimes one by one, and announced the punishment opinions discussed by the marshal and the generals one by one.

"Now, does anyone want to plead their grievances? Does anyone think this punishment is unfair to them? If so, please come forward."

Xue Ruitian looked at the audience and waited for a while, but no one came forward.

"Support the marshal's decision! Support the deputy marshal's decision! Support the decision of the generals!" Some senior low-level generals shouted loudly, "This kind of disregard for national laws and military regulations and disciplines The scoundrels should be severely punished! The soldiers fought bloody battles on the battlefield at the front, fighting tooth and nail against the Liao and Jin Dynasties, and they were enjoying themselves so much in the rear. They were simply more hateful than those local and capital officials who had committed corruption crimes! "

"Well said! We all agree with the decision of the marshal, deputy marshal and generals! These people are in the same city and camp with us. Not only do they not work with us to resist foreign enemies, they also hinder us and create problems for us. You deserve to be killed!"

"Deserves to be killed!"

In fact, there were indeed soldiers who wanted to plead for those seven people. They couldn't help but watch their fellow countrymen die. But listening to the discussions of these comrades around them, the scenes of every battle suddenly appeared in front of their eyes. Watching them on the battlefield Fighting to the death with the enemy soldiers, watching the soldiers join the army on the same day, sleeping in the same camp as themselves, and patrolling with their partners and brothers, dying in front of him, watching after every battle, everyone supports each other and walks down the mountain of bones. , a hell-like battlefield, and then thinking about the actions of those people on the high platform, a wave of hatred surged into my heart, and I suddenly stopped thinking about interceding for them, wishing that these people would disappear in front of me immediately.

Shen Cha stood behind Shen Haolin, paying close attention to the reactions of the soldiers in the school. She was only responsible for the part closer to the commander's platform, while those in the distance were watched by the shadows and the eyeliners buried in the army. , seeing the subtle changes in the faces of these people, especially the compatriots on the high platform, she knew in her heart that the favoritism and revenge they had worried about before would probably not happen.

Shen Cha gestured towards the shadows on the high platform, and the beheading of the servant surnamed Lu began amidst the anger of the crowd.

Seeing the servant surnamed Lu committing suicide, all the soldiers cheered in unison. This is probably because they share the same hatred with the enemy. For those who are not of the same heart as them, they cannot treat these people as brothers. Now these people will become drunk because of jealousy. Because of alcoholism If they leave their posts without permission, if they are not severely punished, they may betray their fellow villagers, brothers, and even the entire Guancheng and Shen Family Army to the enemy for a small profit in the future.

If that time comes, it will really be a disaster, and they will be the ones who die.

After the beheading of the servant surnamed Lu was over, the shadows quickly cleaned up the high platform and dragged the other six people to the front. They were about to receive a full fifty army sticks. However, these people lacked training on weekdays and their bodies were not particularly strong. , just after beating thirty army sticks, he was already dying of breath. When all fifty army sticks were beaten, he had no breath at all.

"The dead are most important, so they should be buried outside the city, far away from the graves of the dead soldiers, so as not to offend those loyal and good men who sacrificed their lives for the country."

"Yes, Marshal!"

"The morning exercise continues, let's go!"

Shen Haolin turned around and left, leaving behind the Qiu family brothers who were in charge of today's morning exercises.

As soon as they arrived at the door of the handsome tent, Ying Shiba hurriedly caught up from behind.

"Boss, my subordinate has something important to report!"

Shen Cha nodded towards Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian, and walked to a secluded place with Ying Shiba.

"What happened?"

"Secret messages have been sent from Liao, Jin, Tubo, and Uighur." Ying Shiba looked around and lowered his voice and said, "The four countries will send special envoys to Xijing to pay tribute. The Liao and Jin came to our Jiaping Pass, and Tubo followed the Uighur. Hanyuguan."

"Last night, we were still talking about when they would send an envoy to visit, and we received news about this today." Shen Cha nodded, "It's time to calculate the time, but what's so strange about this? Isn't it every year? so?"
