Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 563 The Euphemistic Death Sentence

"...Oh, master, you want to help Qi'er! If this really goes to India, I, a mother, will be worried to death. This battlefield has no eyes. If Qi'er gets hurt, I don't want to live It's gone!" A rather rich woman cried while sitting in front of a middle-aged man in military uniform, wiping away her tears.

The middle-aged officer was also quite helpless, and said angrily: "Now, can I, a little colonel, be able to handle it? Do you know how serious this matter is? The emperor personally issued an edict to the Ministry of War to reprimand , and I even received a warning letter, the signature is the emperor's private seal! Now Qi'er and all the children who are going to be transferred from the 12th Army are all under control, saying that they are receiving political education , Now even the family members are not allowed to visit, and when the 12th Army is launched, they will all leave. Can I control this? It is said that a loving mother has many failures, and Qier is still very strong. What a shameful thing to hand in the application for transfer just because of the mother-in-law's bastard words!"

The woman was also a tyrannical one, she said relentlessly, "Li Fengshan, you have no conscience, if you hadn't sent your son to the 12th Army, you wouldn't have been in so much trouble!"

Li Fengshan was helpless. He was considered a very capable officer in the army. He was born in the Great Western Army and followed Li Dingguo in the Northern and Southern Wars. Later, he also became prominent in the War of Liberation. Now he has become a colonel, which is considered a sinecure.However, because he was an old subordinate of Li Dingguo, he also had some connections in the army. His son Li Shiqi couldn't study well, so he got active and was sent to the army, where he was promoted to a lieutenant.

But Li Fengshan has one characteristic, that is, he is afraid of his wife.His wife, Mrs. Li, was originally a pungent woman from the countryside, but because Li Fengshan has made a fortune, she has become a wife.It's just that Li Shi gave birth to several children, and Li Shiqi was the only son, so he was naturally doted on in every possible way.

"You motherfucker, you have no experience. I am a big Ming army, how powerful, this time it is just fighting the Mughals, a group of incompetent assams, and even deployed a lot of armored soldiers and air force. Your son is an infantry soldier, maybe We can't even meet the enemy, and they will be defeated. There won't be any danger, on the contrary, we might even gain some credit."

Mrs. Li is still worried: "How can there be any accuracy on this battlefield? Don't you think about the old fellows of yours in the past, who followed Zhang Shuai to fight the world, and in the end only you, an old and heartless old man, died, and the others died. Yes. Our odd son is only 22! We didn’t even ask for a daughter-in-law, if we don’t have one, woo woo woo, what should I do!”

Li Fengshan was annoyed by this woman's crying, so he became vicious, slapped the shrew down, and shouted: "You thief, I have respected and loved you for decades, how much you have endured, you But I know that this time you are tossing, not only is my military uniform about to be taken off, but your son's future is also affected! It was good, but you ruined it all. Now the army laughs at the noble son of the 12th Army They even nicknamed them Mr. Turtle. From now on, Qier will not be able to hold his head up as a human being. When he goes to the battlefield, in order to prove himself, he will fight to the death. If his son really dies on the battlefield, it will be all yours. woe!"

Mrs. Li was also stunned by Li Fengshan's beating, and she was speechless for a long time.Afterwards, he couldn't stop crying, and he didn't dare to cry too loudly. Although Li Fengshan was soft-hearted, he was mighty and majestic after all, quite powerful.

Li Fengshan took out a letter from his bosom, threw it in front of Li, and said: "This is a letter written by your son. Unless he triumphs, he will never see us. You should pray to God that your son can return safely." Bar."

He had already read his son's letter, and could feel the shame contained in his son's words.Obviously, the Ministry of War's political and ideological education and self-criticism have been very successful.

His son Li Shiqi wrote in the letter: "...it is disloyal to despise the rise and fall of the Ming Dynasty and hundreds of millions of people with only one son, the prosperity of my Li family. If it were not for my father who fought so hard for the Ming Dynasty, If we are not afraid of our ancestors who sacrificed their lives, the Ming Dynasty will not be as great as it was when it was restored. My son has become the laughing stock and shame of the entire army, and he feels deeply guilty. He should repay the Ming Dynasty with his blood, in the name of not falling into the shoes of his father, and not falling into the glory of the Ming Dynasty. Sheng."

Mrs. Li accepted the letter, but never opened it, because Mrs. Li was illiterate.

Li Fengshan was not in a good mood, left his wife behind, and walked into the yard by himself.

"In a few days, Qi'er will be leaving. I hope that after this time, Qi'er can grow up, have his own ideas, stop listening to my useless couple, and become a truly upright man."

In the garrison of Qingdao Mansion, Li Shiqi got up listening to the morning call like an ordinary private, finished washing in a very short time, and formed a team on the playground.

The lieutenant's epaulettes were no longer on his shoulders, and even the private epaulettes were gone. There was only a blank epaulette.

The ones standing around him were all the same, without epaulettes, and looked very solemn.

There are more than 40 people in this platoon, all of whom are "deserter officers" this time. They are not very old, and the oldest is no more than 29 years old.But without exception, their epaulettes have been pulled out, but they are still serving as soldiers.

"Stand at attention, rest!" With some local accents, the extremely young-looking second lieutenant platoon leader stood in front of these guys whose military ranks were all younger than him.

All the "soldiers" were very upright and obeyed his orders.

The platoon leader opened his mouth and said: "Tomorrow we are going to set off. This time we're going to the 'Wuyong Platoon'. No matter what difficult task, we have to be the first to report to do it. No matter what kind of risk we take, we may No matter how many casualties we cause, as long as our superiors ask us to do it, we will carry it out. In the brave platoon, orders are everything."

No soldier uttered a word to refute, nor did any soldier show any expression of dissatisfaction.

They became a laughing stock and a disgrace, temporarily lost their ranks, and continued to participate in this war as soldiers. They no longer commanded anyone, but were commanded, and the battlefield they were going to was the most difficult and dangerous Everything will be borne by them-this is the punishment of the deserter officers of the 12th Army.

Under the ridicule, even wearing a "braveless" hat, they will use their lives to prove that they are still qualified soldiers of the Ming Dynasty and will not embarrass the Ming army.

Li Shiqi didn't tell his parents about the Wuyong platoon, because the Wuyong platoon is a death squad, and the superiors just want these second-generation children of the army who want to avoid casualties that may not exist at all to die.

A mild death sentence.
