Chapter 327

"me……"

Zhang Qian looked up at Guo Ning's face, and swallowed: "Jie Shuai, I'm here to find Xu Canjun, cough, something, something..."

Guo Ning thought that he still had a lot of documents to read at home, so he waved his hand: "Then you wait! He is going to supervise the execution, and he will be back in a while!"

"Already started killing people?" Zhang Qian asked in a voice.

Guo Ning sneered: "After the murder, the house will be confiscated, and the head will be passed on to various departments and departments, so as to make an example of others!"

Zhang Qian screamed, threw herself in front of Guo Ning, and kowtowed: "Jieshuai, please forgive me!"

This action actually startled Guo Ning: "You bastard, what happened again? Why are you going to spare your life?"

Zhang Qian raised his head, opened his mouth, and murmured: "The last general, the last general is not strict in governing the army, and the guards at the three checkpoint posts under his jurisdiction are slack... But, but..."

"Huh?" Guo Ning looked blank.

Zhang Qian gritted his teeth: "But that has nothing to do with ordinary soldiers. Those soldiers are good men who killed the enemy on the battlefield. They are so lax. It's all because I, the general, didn't supervise well and strictly enforce the military law! It's mine. Sin! If the Commander-in-Chief wants to punish him, he can cut off my head or ransack my house, as long as those soldiers are spared!"

After these words were finished, several lieutenants and brand leaders behind him also knelt down and said in one voice, "It's nothing to do with the general, it's our ineffectiveness in running the army!"

When these people begged, Zhang Qian continued to exchange tears, knelt down and kowtowed.

The front of the main hall of Jieshuai Mansion is also used for reviewing and performing martial arts. The place is open and paved with flat blue bricks.Zhang Qian knocked his head down with such force that his forehead suddenly swelled, and even the scar on his face was purple and red, and swelled up.

Both Zhang Qian and his elder brother Zhang Jiao were born in the defeated army in Hebei, and they were born and died with Guo Ning. They fought tough and vicious battles.When defending Haicang Town before, all Zhang Jiao's troops died in battle, and none of them retreated half a step.And Zhang Qian took over his elder brother's position and continued to fight to the death. He was dug out of the dead by the medical officer after the war.

Zhang Qian used to be very handsome, but now the ferocious scar on his face was left in that battle, when the blade moved an inch further, his entire face would have been split in half.

Seeing his appearance, Guo Ning couldn't bear it, so he stopped and came back immediately: "Xu Yu went to be executed, the ones who were killed were corrupt officials who were greedy for the land and oppressed the people, not the little soldiers in your department."

"Ah?" Zhang Qian wiped his face and raised his head.

Guo Ning raised his foot and kicked: "This look is too ugly, you wait for me in the side hall, and when Xu Xuan comes back, I will ask him again!"

"Yes Yes."

Zhang Qian took a few of his subordinates to hell.

After half an hour, the sun sank to the west and night fell.Xu Yu came back to hand in the order: "Jie Shuai, the man has already been beheaded. The head has been passed on to the Department of Records first, and it will be submitted to the Department of Government Affairs tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow it will be brought to the Commander of Dengzhou Capital."

Guo Ning nodded slightly: "Everyone in the recording department, after reading it, how do you react?"

"There are two people who admit to being negligent and are willing to be severely punished. In addition, I..."

Guo Ning raised his hand to signal Xu Xuan not to say any more: "How to punish, you can figure it out, and I will not interfere. Remember, it's just this time, not another example."

Xu Wei relaxed a little, and bowed deeply: "I obey... Thank you, Commander-in-Chief."

It was for this matter that he rushed back to Ye County in such a hurry.When Guo Ning mentioned this level, he didn't intend to be too implicated, and gave Xu Yu the opportunity to take the blame and make meritorious deeds.Thinking about those who came to the Secretary of Government Affairs and Dengzhou, as long as they know what to do, their heads will always stay on their necks.

Just as he was about to leave, Guo Ning asked again: "What trouble did Zhang Qian cause? I think he came to you in a hurry, and he almost knelt down in front of Jieshuai's mansion."

Xu Yu hurriedly described what happened today.

Guo Ning shook his head: "I'm concerned about this matter, you go and call this fellow."

Xu Yu brought Zhang Qian here.Zhang Qian knelt down in front of Guo Ning's desk with another "plop".

Guo Ning sneered: "It's refreshing to kneel."

Zhang Qian bowed his head and remained silent.

"You general, under what circumstances did you become the general, do you remember?"

"Reporting to Jieshuai, the general will remember that it was after two days of confinement."

"What did I tell you then?"

"Jie Shuai wants me to discipline myself from now on, not to talk nonsense, and not to be frivolous."

"Did you agree then?"

"accepted."

"Did you do it?"

Zhang Qian moved his body carefully, with a bitter expression on his face: "Generally, about, I think it was done."

Guo Ning slapped the table hard, and there was a loud bang:

"Did you do it? I declare military discipline in the whole army, why do you alone dare to disobey it? Is it so difficult to be on duty? I think that even you will be frivolous! You have the face to say in front of me, you did it ? Don’t you take the military law seriously, and don’t you take me seriously? Is what you promised yourself like farting?”

This series of shouting and cursing immediately made Zhang Qian's face pale, and he said: "The last general dare not! The last general is guilty! It is true that the last general is frivolous, so he can slack in governing the army. Please punish him severely!"

Guo Ning looked at Zhang Qian coldly for a long time.

The sky was getting darker and darker, the servants at the back looked around for a while, and seeing Xu Yu nodding, they came in and lit the other oil lamps.And Zhang Qian knelt down on the ground, not daring to get up.

After a while, Guo Ning calmed down a little: "You are a meritorious person, I remember. The lieutenant under your subordinate who should be in charge of the checkpoint, the brand head, and the three old soldiers are all old men who have been fighting for a long time. Remember. I’ve always been happy to see you get rewarded for your meritorious deeds, and join me in plotting a great cause. However, it’s about military law, and we can’t easily condone it.”

Speaking of this, Guo Ning asked Xu Wei: "The three regular soldiers who you saw slack along the way should be executed according to military law, right?"

"Yes."

"I'll intercede for them. I'll spare them the execution and exchange them for a hundred army sticks."

"Obey, I'll arrange someone to do it."

One hundred army sticks is also a severe punishment, one hundred hits on the back, if you don't die, you will be half disabled, and you will be a disabled person for the rest of your life.Zhang Qian's face was gloomy, and he took two steps forward on his knees, waiting to intercede again.

"Also..." Guo Ning looked at Zhang Qian: "Since Zhang Qian himself said that he was guilty of incompetence in running the army, then take apart one hundred army sticks. Zhang Qian himself, the lieutenant and the captain who should be in charge Let's each bear half of it for the soldiers under his command. Each person has fifty military sticks, and we will drag them out to fight now."

"As ordered!"

At that moment Ni Yi came in with the guards, and dragged Zhang Qian out like a wolf like a tiger. The three officers lay down side by side, right in front of the hall, and were beaten hard.

When Zhang Qian was brought back and slipped back, he was already grinning in pain, and the military robe behind him was torn, not to mention the skin on his back was ripped apart, and blood was slowly oozing out.

Guo Ning ignored him and didn't call the medical officer.

Just now when the people from Ni's area beat it, it sounded crackling, and they used all the force. It was so painful that they burst into tears, but it couldn't hurt the inner organs.For a fighting man like Zhang Qian, he can be alive and kicking after three to five days of recuperation.

He turned slightly and heard Xu Yu continue: "It is inevitable for the soldiers to relax after not fighting for a long time. Therefore, it is time to take this opportunity to let the big guys take turns to see the blood and refresh themselves."

Guo Ning nodded slightly: "You mean, Liaodong?"

"I read that Li Yun said in the document that he is in Liaodong, and he has won the support of Heshi Liehuanduan, the capital of Fuzhou, and will establish a stronghold in Hesihanguan, south of Fuzhou. Then he will continue north, passing Posu Road Go to Huining Mansion, cross the Yazi River, and go to the Northeast Recruitment Department in Taizhou. Transit personnel will be arranged along the way to exchange our food, medicinal materials, ironware, and horses, furs, etc. from the Northeast side on a large scale. At the same time, it also communicates with the weaker forces in the Northeast to expand the influence of our navy. If this matter is done by him, the annual income will be huge... Jieshuai, it is naturally very good. However, How can it be so easy to accomplish something in our Dajin Kingdom? Some problems can be solved with money, but some problems will sooner or later be resolved by swords.”

Guo Ning nodded: "Thinking about it this way, Li Yun's 200 people are really not enough. I read his paperwork saying that if he hadn't taken a hot air balloon out to scare people, the entire army would have been almost wiped out before!"

Speaking of this, Guo Ning looked at Zhang Qian again and sneered twice: "It's just right."

Zhang Qian asked nervously, "I don't know what orders Jie Shuai has?"

"Go back and order soldiers!" Guo Ning pointed to Zhang Qian: "We must select the elite who can fight fiercely, and within five days, we will gather them all in the Ye County military camp! This time, you are going to suffer hardships and suffer, and you will be punished." You! If you can't handle it, come and see... think it over for me!"

Although Zhang Qian didn't know the specific task yet, he jumped up with joy: "Obey! I'm leaving now!"

"Don't be in a hurry, come, let's take a look at the documents sent by Qun Mu from Liaodong." Guo Ning waved to him.

Xu Ting reacted quickly, went to the wall in a few steps, and took the map of Liaodong again.

While the three of them carefully analyzed the situation in Liaodong.

Li Yun, with a small number of his close companions, has continued north and arrived in Gaizhou.In Guangning Mansion, which is more than [-] miles away from Gaizhou, the night patrol soldiers shuttled back and forth, as if they were facing a big enemy or a big guest.On the specially vacated space in the city stands a huge Mongolian-style felt tent.Inside and outside the yurt, the lights were brightly lit, and servants serving wine and meat came in and out like flowing water.

In the past few years across the Liaohai Sea, the Khitan man Yeluliu who claimed to be the King of Liao, was holding a lotus petal golden cup with both hands, and respectfully toasted to the first person: "General Mu Huali, please!"
