Liu Zhang rolled his eyes at Gao Pei, walked up to the soldier, and looked him up and down. The soldier had thick eyebrows and a dark face, the same color as his eyeballs. Only the whites of his eyes were white. His head was also deformed, with a wax melon on the upper part.
The lower part of the watermelon was very ugly. Liu Zhang couldn't help but look at Gao Pei again and thought, can this guy eat if he keeps such a person by his side every day?
"You just said that my military order is partial, right?" Liu Zhang crossed his arms, not to look cool, but because it was the only way to suppress the violent churning in his stomach without leaving any trace.
"That's right." The soldier raised his head and said, not knowing at all how much courage it takes for others to look at him head-on, as if he were a beautiful tree facing the wind.
"Are you from Jingzhou too?"
"That's right."
"So you are helping the people of Jingzhou to speak?"
"That's right."
Liu Zhang looked at the soldier and said with a smile: "The answer is quite straightforward. Tell me why I am partial. If you can't tell me, you are slandering the Lord. I will chop your head off."
The soldier chuckled, showing his chipped teeth, "Uncle Emperor, why don't you ask the general if these five Jingzhou soldiers are the only ones trampling on the farmland?"
Liu Zhang frowned and looked at the young general next to him. The young general bowed and said, "There are three more soldiers who trampled on the rice fields."
"Then why not bring them up together."
Liu Zhang's voice was calm, but his face was frosty. The young general shrank in fear and immediately waved his hand. Three brave soldiers stepped forward. The young general said to Liu Zhang: "These three soldiers are following the lord through the Wuxi Territory.
, passing through Jingnan, Dongzhou soldiers from Chaisang came out, so..."
"Dongzhou soldiers?" Liu Zhang turned to the three soldiers and said, "Why are you trampling on the rice fields?"
The soldier in the middle replied loudly: "Because this is Jingzhou, which is under the jurisdiction of the traitor Liu Biao, and all the people have fled. This is basically ownerless land."
The voice is loud and fearless.
Liu Zhang pierced his ear with his finger, nodded to the soldiers and said: "Well, the voice is loud and the expression is clear. It is not like those soldiers who are pusy. They are worthy of being elite soldiers who followed me all the way to the war. In this case, I feel biased towards you.
It's an insult to you, so I'll behead you."
"Lord, calm down."
The three Dongzhou soldiers were silent. Gao Pei and other generals around them immediately dismounted and begged for mercy. Dongzhou soldiers are not easy to recruit, and training is even more difficult. Killing one will result in one less one. Moreover, these three Dongzhou soldiers were carefully selected and have made many achievements.
of military exploits.
"Are you convinced?" Liu Zhang asked the three soldiers after looking at the soldiers kneeling around him to beg for mercy.
"I don't accept it." Dongzhou soldiers shouted loudly: "If this is Yizhou, even if the lord executes us late, we will die without complaint, but this is Jingzhou and belongs to the enemy. If the lord punishes us because of the enemy, we will not accept it.
"
"Not convinced."
"Not convinced."
The other two soldiers responded loudly. Liu Zhang gritted his teeth and opened his mouth, took a deep breath, looked at the three soldiers for a while, and showed an expression of appreciation, "Okay, very good, you are worthy of being my Liu Zhang's soldier, so be it."
, you just need to answer one question from me, and if you answer it, I will let you go, who am I?"
The three soldiers were stunned for a moment, and the soldier in the middle said: "You are the lord, uncle Liu Huang, the shepherd of Yizhou."
"Whose royal uncle am I?"
"The imperial uncle of the current Emperor of Han Dynasty."
"Very good, I am the emperor's uncle of the Emperor of Han, not the emperor of Yizhou. Not to mention Jingzhou, all the land in the world belongs to the Emperor of Han. As the emperor of Han, I am the emperor's uncle. All the people in the world are Han people. How can I come here?
Enemies, how come these people who grow crops have become our enemies?"
Liu Zhang's voice shocked everyone, and the three soldiers lowered their heads and were speechless.
"Shamoke." Liu Zhang turned his head and shouted.
"The end will be here."
“Why don’t any of you Wuxi people trample on the rice fields?”
Samoko said: "Because the young lord said that whoever dares to rob people of their property will have his head cut off first."
"Did you hear that?" Liu Zhang looked at the three soldiers, who could not say a word anymore.
"Beheaded."
After Liu Zhang finished his sentence, several sergeants stepped forward to arrest the three soldiers, who were dragged away stiffly.
Liu Zhang's expression was indifferent, and he regretted the lives of the three soldiers in his heart. What a good soldier, brave and loyal. However, what Liu Zhang thought of was another serious problem. The reason why these three soldiers regarded Jingzhou as an enemy
, violating military orders and trampling crops without any remorse, I am afraid it is not just Liu Biao's territory.
After many massacres, the Sichuan soldiers may have already formed the impression that the army they belong to is a cruel and unscrupulous army, so except for fighting bravely, they can ignore everything else.
Liu Zhang realized the seriousness of this problem, but could not find a way to cure it. It is not easy to form the soul of an army. If he instilled those thoughts of benevolence and righteousness into them now, after their thoughts are confused, I am afraid that this army will completely lose its combat effectiveness.
Already.
Just when Liu Zhang was worried, the black-faced soldier said again: "Uncle Huang has strict military discipline, but are these eight soldiers the only ones trampling on the rice fields?"
Liu Zhang pinched his forehead with the five fingers of his right hand, and Gao Pei loudly said to the black-faced soldier: "Pang Yuan, are you still finished? Believe it or not, I will kill you now."
Gao Pei was really angry now. Pang Yuan's words just now had killed three elite soldiers. Now he knew that his lord was impatient, and he was still raging. Gao Pei had not bothered to ask for advice on the art of war, and he wished he could step forward and strike now.
Cut Pang Yuan in pieces.
"Let him say it." Liu Zhang took a deep breath and said with difficulty.
"And the seven soldiers and the general." Pang Yuan looked at the group of soldiers aside without any scruples.
As soon as the eight people saw Pang Yuan looking at them, they immediately stepped out and lined up in front of Liu Zhang.
"Lord."
"Have you stepped on the rice fields?" Liu Zhang said slowly.
"Stepped on."
"Beheading, what can I say?"
Several people looked at each other, their expressions changing, but they didn't say a word. At this time, Yang Huai, the general, stepped forward and said: "Master, we can't kill them. They are enforcing military law and went to capture a few criminal soldiers in the rice fields."
"
"Hahahahahaha." Pang Yuan laughed loudly in a sharp voice, "A joke, a joke, it's the most ridiculous thing in the world. Military law only stipulates that those who trample on the rice fields will be killed, but it doesn't say why they trample on the rice fields. If they trample on the rice fields, they will be trampled on. How can it be so?
He is there."
When the young general heard Pang Yuan's words, his face changed with sadness, and finally he bowed loudly and said: "The last general is willing to accept the military law."
"We are willing to accept the military law." The seven soldiers bowed together, with some unwillingness on their faces.
Liu Zhang glanced at several soldiers, walked up to Pang Yuan, and said coldly: "You are so eager to fight against injustice."
"My lord, you are so complimentary." Pang Yuan felt the aura emanating from Liu Zhang, his eyelids moved slightly, and his expression quickly returned to normal.
"Talkling a lot is not a strong point." Liu Zhang patted Pang Yuan on the shoulder, turned and walked towards the car, saying as he walked: "Those eight soldiers gave you a warning. Next time you capture the criminals, remember to go to the field ridge. I will also reward Pang Yuan with a hundred coins."
