Chapter 712: Torture the captives of the Le family
"Captain Ding, the news came back from Captain Feng. Bi Qu Ge. CN" Bai Qian handed Ding Kui a small bamboo tube, obviously she hadn't taken it out yet and looked at it.
Ding Kui took out the note from the bamboo tube and remained silent after reading it.
"Didn't you catch it?" Bai Qian asked curiously.
"I've caught them, but I don't know if they are water bandits or troublesome people." Ding Kui held the note in his hand, "The number of ships to be escorted has been reduced by half, and we have them go directly to the dock of Juyang City."
"Oh, yes!" Bai Qian became even more confused after hearing this.
What was written on the note was - the water bandits have been captured, and one of them claimed to be a younger brother in waiting at Beiguanting. He went to Qu's birthday banquet and falsely accused us and other robbers, and his magician escaped.
"Call to Juyang City and intercept Mr. Zhang Jie. I will go over and report the situation to him immediately." Ding Kui thought for a while and felt that this matter cannot be concealed and he must discuss it with Zhang Jie immediately.
Among the prisoners is the younger brother of his country's Beiguan Tinghou. This matter might become a diplomatic incident between Shaodian and his country. If it is true that this person can neither be killed nor let go casually, Ding Kui regrets not taking Ao personally.
Yu takes action, otherwise it will be impossible for the magician to escape, and the body will be destroyed and no trace will be left.
It happened that Zhang Jie, Liu Yu, and Fei Ze were old acquaintances. When passing through Juyang City, Zhang Jie went to the Huaxia Carriage and Horse Racing Station to visit his old friend. He had not yet left when the base letter eagle flew to Juyang City.
Ding Kui flew back to Juyang City on horseback and invited Zhang Jie to the military camp to report the situation.
"How much do you think this is true?" Zhang Jie didn't want to really capture a nobleman of his country.
"I think this is true. How many people from our country know about City Lord Qu's birthday party? Ordinary people can't call on magicians. Coupled with other intelligence, it is very likely that the Le family of the Marquis of Beiguanting in our country is involved." Ding Kui
Checked Watson's birthday.
"Since Liu Yu and Fei Ze are in this city, let's invite them to come and discuss it together." Zhang Jie also felt that the problem was very difficult. He had never encountered a similar situation.
"This is confidential military information." Ding Kui looked hesitant.
"Go if I tell you to. They used to be secretaries of the General Staff Department and are best at handling this kind of troublesome matters. You have to know how to use the people under you!" Zhang Jiecai didn't have so many scruples.
After receiving the military order, Ding Kui ignored some prohibitions and personally brought Liu Yu and Fei Ze close to the military camp.
"Strictly speaking, the younger brother of Beiguan Tinghou is not a noble." Liu Yu looked back at Fei Ze.
Fei Ze nodded and said: "Le Yun's name will not be included in the famous list of the Senate of our country, only Le Pi, the Marquis of Beiguanting."
"Wait a minute, don't rush to deal with the prisoners first. The other party will definitely send people over to negotiate. Listen to the other party's conditions. This matter can involve a wide range of things. If it can be resolved privately, try to resolve it privately. If multiple people intervene, it will be difficult.
There are too many, so we need to handle them carefully." Liu Yu couldn't think of a solution at once.
"I'm going out to pick up Feng Liang now. I'll hide the person first and control the news tightly so that it won't spread." Ding Kui's headache became more and more severe, as if he had created a trap himself.
Two merchant ships were traveling side by side on the Tongyuan River. The decks were very messy, and it was clear from a glance that a fierce fight had taken place. The more gorgeous ship was more seriously damaged, and it appeared to be the party that was attacked.
Feng Liang and the elite soldiers of the First Brigade were on a more luxurious ship, and they brought Chang Shan with them.
"You always go down to see him and don't talk to him. What's the use?" Feng Liang said to Changshan who had just got out of the cabin.
"Hey, Sir No. 2 taught me a lesson, but I don't know how to tell him." Chang Shan sighed.
"If he succeeds, he will definitely not say anything to you. I promise to give you a sword so that you will never be speechless." Feng Liang's words were like a reminder and a warning.
"What should I do if the villain goes back? How can the Chang family bear it when the Marquis of Beiguan Ting comes to visit us? It's over, it's over, the Chang family will be defeated by the villain." Chang Shan frowned, never dreaming that he would
Involved in the whirlpool of opposition to Beiguan Tinghou.
"So I'm telling you, go back and beg my master to give you some advice. Maybe you can save your Chang family."
Feng Liang was a son of a nobleman, so he smelled something unusual from this incident. The man in front of him was very crucial. He was from his own country. He had the highest credibility to prove that the captured Le Yun was a water bandit.
"Hey, that's all we can do. I hope your lord can deal with Beiguan Tinghou." Changshan had no better way.
"Hey, Liu Yin, where's Brother Tao?" Feng Liang looked around but couldn't find Tao Mu.
"Oh, he and Zhu Ge are going to measure him and ask for a confession." Liu Yin also just came out of the cabin and met Tao Mu.
Tao Muzheng and Zhu Geliang tortured the prisoner in a dark small room, and the prisoner was the tall archer.
The tall archer's right shoulder was bandaged, but his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and there were bruises in many places on his body, which showed that he had been beaten many times after being captured.
"Shang Ye, I already know your origins. It's useless to keep talking harshly. Do you believe it has aroused my temper and now I'm going to throw you into the river to feed the fishes?" Tao Mu said fiercely.
Shang Ye was stunned for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure and said disdainfully: "Hmph, do you dare to kill me? Some of us have escaped, and you have no chance to kill anyone and silence them."
"Haha, the reputation of 'The Shadow of the Light' is not small. I didn't expect that I would become a prisoner. Tsk, tsk, tsk, now you can just find a boatman to piss on your face, you can't do anything about it." Zhu Geliang said sadly to the side.
"You!" Shang Ye's face immediately turned red. A wise man can be killed and not humiliated. If a famous master of his is to be insulted like this, he will not be able to survive if the news spreads. "What do you want?"
Tao Mu looked at Zhu Geliang with encouraging eyes. Zhu Geliang smiled sinisterly and said: "Le Yun is captured. Even if he can come back alive, he must give us an explanation. Tell me, who will be the best candidate to be the scapegoat?
"
Shang Ye gasped and said, "Explain? Does Lejia need to explain to you?"
"The Le family is nothing in the Shaodian Kingdom. My master can deal with it with just one soldier. You'd better understand the situation clearly." Tao Mu put on a serious face again, pretending to be ruthless and bluffing people is his specialty.
"Tch, you don't have to worry about your tongue flashing when you're bragging." Shang Ye slowly regained his composure.
"Hahaha, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. I am the weakest bodyguard of my master. There is a great martial artist and a great archer above me. Does Beiguanting Hou Le's family have sixth-level combatants?" Tao Mu said provocatively.
said in a tone of voice.
"You are indeed Ding Kui's people. Does the new prince-in-law of Shaodian Kingdom want to provoke a war between the two countries? It's best to let Master Le and I go immediately, otherwise you won't be able to bear the consequences." Shang Ye was provoked.
Hemorrhagic.
Snap, a slap.
Zhu Geliang stroked the hand that had just hit the person and said: "It feels so good to beat a big shot. I wonder what the consequences will be for me? Oh, the little guy has no abilities and is full of bad things. Do you want to try it?"
"Bah," Shang Ye spat out a mouthful of blood from his teeth, "You, I remember you, kill me!"
"Hehehehe, it's not that easy. You are the leader of the water bandits, or at least an accomplice. The laws of Shaodian Country will punish you. Look at your thin skin and tender flesh. Haha, the boatman who is locked up in the bottom of the boat every day may have special
hobbies."
With that said, with a "stab" sound, Zhu Geliang pulled off half of Shang Ye's pants.
Half of Shang Ye's thighs felt cold, and his heart was even more chilled. "I will never confess that Mr. Le ordered me to rob merchant ships, no matter what methods you use to force me." His face turned green for a while.
It turned white for a while, and the mouth just wouldn't loosen up at all.
If he was coerced by Zhu Geliang today and cooperated with Shaodianguo to identify the Le family, then he and his family would not survive, and he knew this very well.
"I don't necessarily ask you to testify against the Le family. You have robbed several ships and killed so many businessmen before. You can't bear this crime. If you do something, everyone will be responsible. As long as you are a man and admit what you have done,
We don’t need to humiliate you. You don’t need to answer us now, there is still time for you to think about it.”
Tao Mu waved to Zhu Geliang, and the two left the dark little room.
After coming out, Tao Mu patted Zhu Geliang on the shoulder and said, "Hey, I didn't expect you to have such a skill, so Shang Ye must have been frightened by you."
"The villain can't stand these guys who work with the nobles. I don't want to think that they are also from common people. They are so cruel and ruthless in killing common people. I feel sorry for those boat people." Zhu Geliang hated Shang Ye for robbing and killing people, so he just took action.
Show no mercy.
"Well, he is a man. It is very dangerous for you to go back to your own country anyway. Why not come with us? My master has never oppressed the common people and will never let us do what Shang Ye did." Tao Mu loved it before.
Recruiting the younger brother, Ding Cai, etc. is an example, but now he has become a helper to recruit Ding Kui's subordinates.
"I just heard Shang Ye say, is your lord Ding Kui? Flying General Ding Kui?"
It seems that the name of Flying General is not only heard in Nanzhao Prefecture, but also in foreign countries.
Tao Mu looked around, and Ya said in a low voice: "Yes, I am one of his soldiers. Among the soldiers, my strength is at the middle level at best."
Zhu Geliang's eyes widened and he said: "Zhongyou? You are the fearless knight. You are much more powerful than Shang Ye. You must know that Shang Ye is one of the top guards in the Le family."
"Hey, how can the Le family compare with our family? Does the great martial artist next to the flying general know it?"
Zhu Geliang nodded.
"There is more than one person around me who is more powerful than him." Tao Mu said mysteriously.
Tao Mu did not disclose the exact quantity, name or occupation. This did not reveal the secrets of the Ding family. If it were spread, no one would collect it as intelligence.
"But how can a flying general like a villain with such low strength be interested in him?" Zhuge Liang believed in Tao Mu, because Tao Mu had no reason to deceive a person like him.
"It's hard to say. The master often tells us that a person's strength is important but his mind is equally important. I think you are a person who is good at using your brain, and you will definitely like the master." Tao Mu remembered Ding Kui's words very clearly. This made him
His unforgettable assassination target changed the trajectory of his life.
