Chapter Thirty-Four Violations of Military Orders

As the saying goes, good deeds travel thousands of miles, and before dinner time, the story of Sun Qian dyeing flowers and willows had spread to the ears of every soldier in the forward army. At dawn the next day, generals at all levels also learned about it.

In the large tent of the forward army and the central army, the generals of each battalion gathered together, and they were all whispering to each other before Sun Qian arrived.

"Hey, have you heard that General Sun Qian is in trouble?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. Even a man can't stand fighting all the time."

"But General Sun is afraid that he will not choose what to eat if he is hungry."

"When choosing a girl, you have to choose someone with fair and smooth skin. If it weren't for General Sun..."

A few generals gathered in a corner and chatted, and what they said was very vivid. Maybe the voice was a little louder, which attracted two good people to come forward and join in the fun.

At this moment, there was a loud shout outside the tent: "General Sun Qian is here!"

After hearing this, all the generals quickly walked to the middle of the big tent and divided into two groups. Then there was a sound of armor, and a general walked in outside the tent.

The person who came here was a full head taller than ordinary people, and he walked like a tiger. His face was really fierce and evil. His face was like a jujube, his eyes were like copper bells, and he had a pair of thick black sword-shaped eyebrows. With his sideburns, big nose and big mouth, and a suit of armor and a sword on his shoulder, he looks like Tai Sui in the Vajra painting in the temple.

All the generals clasped their fists together and said, "General Sun,"

Sun Qian snorted and strode to the main hall and sat down behind the desk.

"Generals, please take your seats," Sun Qian waved his hand, and the generals took their seats after hearing this.

A soldier came to Sun Qian with a water jug ​​and poured a bowl of water into the bowl on the bill. Sun Qian had a habit of drinking a large bowl of water every day when discussing matters.

After drinking the water, Sun Qian stretched out his hand to wipe his mouth, and then said in a rough voice: "Yesterday the marshal sent a new general to our forward army. His name is Zhang Dakui. It is said that this man has some abilities. When Song Dynasty was prosperous in the past years, This person was the general. After the fall of the Later Song Dynasty, this person disappeared. However, for some reason, he became the political envoy to Jiangnan and went to Yunnan to recruit King Liang to surrender. However, King Liang did not buy it and almost killed him. He was single. He fled back to the land south of the Yangtze River and was imprisoned for corruption."

At this point, Sun Qian looked at the generals, and then continued: "I just want to ask the generals, do you want a man who crows, crowing, and robs to be your general?"

Everyone looked at each other, but no one said a word. When Sun Qian saw this, he couldn't help but get angry: "Everyone is so enthusiastic about chewing leisure articles, and they are all mute when talking about serious matters."

General Qian of the Hussars Battalion stood up and bowed his hands to Sun Qian and said: "General, please calm down. Zhang Dakui is a member of the Central Military Commission. No matter what kind of person he is, he is not someone we can disobey. I want Marshal Xu to send this person to the front army." It makes sense..."

"That's nonsense," Sun Qian stood up, pointed at the Hussars Yingqian Commander and cursed: "You're blind, there can only be one general in the forward army, and that's me, Sun Qian." Sun Qian Qian walked out of the table and hurriedly walked back and forth in the tent. After a while, he said again: "In the court, I am a relative of the emperor. In the army, I talk about my military merits. What the hell is Zhang Dakui? A prisoner awaiting punishment dares to Comparable to this general,"

All the generals were shocked. They all knew Sun Qian's temper, so no one said a word. Sun Qian walked back and forth in the tent, and after a while he said: "I have given an order to the general. No one is allowed to enter the military camp without my permission. I will We want to see how Zhang Dakui comes to take up his post." After saying this, he walked back to the Grand Master's chair behind the case and sat down.

Looking at the generals, Sun Qian said again: "The forward troops train according to the usual rules every day. Even without Zhang Dakui, I, Sun Qian, can still train soldiers and horses to win the battle." After saying that, he picked up the water bowl and put it in the bowl. Zhongqing drank down the water in one gulp, and then shouted: "Close the tent,"

The wind was light and the clouds were pale and the sun was setting. Da Kui stood in front of the tent and looked into the distance. He slowly put the chicken leg in his right hand to his mouth and took a bite. His mouth was full of oil as he ate. He held the wine gourd in his left hand and took a sip from time to time. The knife tastes sweet and spicy, which is very suitable for Da Kui's taste. The army is about to leave Lanzhou. Everyone in the army is busy as a headless fly, but Da Kui is at ease.

It was not for nothing that he had some leisure time. The leader of the group was being watched by the real captain, and Yang Xiaohu came to take care of him from time to time. Therefore, Da Kui had time to eat and drink in a place where no one was around.

He threw away the chicken bones in his hand, raised his head and drank the last sip of wine. Only then did Dakui smack his lips in satisfaction, with some unfulfilled desires.

Carrying the empty wine gourd, he walked back slowly and leisurely. Just as he was drunk, Dakui was in a state of bliss.

As soon as I returned to the Huotou Army camp, I met someone head-on. It was an old Huotou Army soldier. Seeing that Da Kui was back, the old soldier hurriedly stepped forward to block Da Kui's path.

"Captain Zhang, why are you so drunk? You're going to die," the old army said, but Da Kui didn't care.

The old army continued: "You are not allowed to drink alcohol in the army. You know this. If you are seen by the supervisor, no one can protect you."

"Supervisor, another supervisor appeared somewhere," Dakui said with drunken eyes, looking at the old army, he was already two figures.

The old army looked around and hurriedly pulled Da Kui to a quiet place. Then he said seriously: "National laws and military regulations all have military regulations. Drinking is not allowed in the army. This is the law. Captain Zhang will stay here for a while, and I will go and get it for you." Make a pot of tea to sober up,”

Dakui chuckled and said, "You are a nice guy. I'll skip the tea. I'll go back to sleep." After saying that, Dakui returned to the tent and fell asleep. The old army stood outside the tent and couldn't help sighing, and then went to do his own business.

Before it got dark, Dakui was sleeping soundly when he suddenly heard the sound of a gong outside the tent, followed by the sound of footsteps. Not only did Dakui become agitated, he pulled the quilt over his head and face and went back to sleep, not wanting to roll around outside the tent. Someone rushed in, but it was the old soldier. The old soldier rushed to Da Kui's bedside and panted: "Captain Zhang, wake up soon. The supervisor has called someone (roll call)."

Da Kui pushed Lao Jun in a daze and murmured: "Don't make any noise, I'm sleeping soundly... good wine,"

Lao Jun hurriedly took off Da Kui's quilt and pulled Da Kui up.

"Captain Zhang, don't be ridiculous with your life, come with me quickly," he said, carrying Dakui and leaving the tent. Not far from the tent, hundreds of gang leader soldiers had already gathered. The old soldier carried Dakui to stand in the crowd. Fortunately, the supervisor army has not arrived yet. The old army looked around and then whispered in Dakui's ear: "Don't say anything, just stand here and wait for the time to say something."

Dakui stood there, swaying, and Laojun had no choice but to hold Dakui's shoulders and stand beside him.

Not long after, a loud voice outside the venue sang: "The supervisor has arrived," and the noisy crowd immediately fell silent.

A man walked in the dusk, wearing a brocade robe, a jade belt, a cage scarf on his head, and a picture of a peacock rising to the sun on his chest. This Lord Supervisor of the Army was walking in an indescribably chic and elegant way. It was no wonder that everyone in the army was used to seeing military uniforms and armors, and suddenly this He is a third-grade civil servant, but he feels like he stands out from the crowd.

The supervisor arrived and stood in front of the crowd. The leader of the march behind him hurriedly approached the supervisor and asked in a low voice: "Sir, please start ordering something."

The supervisor snorted, and the marching leader Bo bowed to Jianjun, and then raised his voice to everyone: "Whoever's name is read should answer it," as he said, he opened the account book in his hand and began to read: "Colonel Lieutenant Fang Yong,"

The real captain of the Huotou Army hurriedly replied: "Yes."

The marching leader Bo read again: "Colonel Zhang Dakui," no one said a word for a long time.

But the supervisor said: "Wait a minute, why does this group of leading soldiers have two captains?"

The marching leader Bo hurriedly said: "To tell you what to say, sir, this is the new captain, his surname is Zhang and his name is Dakui."

The supervisor asked again: "Where is this person? Why no one responds?"

"This...," the marching leader Bo helplessly called out again: "Colonel Captain Zhang Dakui," but still no one answered.

Dakui was standing in the queue, snoring and falling asleep even while standing. It was really weird. The old soldier pushed Dakui several times without any response. He not only thought to himself: "It's over, it won't break now."

The supervisor was standing outside the crowd, but he was downwind. Dakui's alcohol smell could be smelled from a distance, so the supervisor was naturally aware of it.

"Who is drinking in violation of military orders? Come forward yourself," the supervisor asked coldly with a straight face.

The veterans looked at each other, but no one spoke to them. Seeing that no one came forward, the supervisor immediately took a few steps forward, then separated from the crowd and occupied Dakui's front.

It's a coincidence that the supervisor likes to be clean, and he will be fragrant when bathing and changing clothes. However, when Da Kui is drunk, he can't smell the scent of sandalwood. As soon as the supervisor comes in front of him, Da Kui frowns in his sleep, and then feels his stomach ache. He was shaken for a while, and with a "wow" sound, he actually vomited the filth all over the supervisor.

The supervisor was unprepared for this sudden change, and naturally he was furious. He immediately shouted: "You disobey the military order and drink privately, and you are so drunk." As he spoke, he couldn't help but take a few steps back. A guard had already come forward to wipe the dirt for him. .

The supervisor pointed at Dakui and said, "Tie this lawless man to me." As soon as he finished speaking, two other guards rushed to Dakui, grabbed Dakui one from the left and the other from the crowd and dragged him out of the crowd.

The supervisor stopped ordering someone, turned around and left with his entourage.

When Dakui woke up, he was tied up all over and thrown into a tent. He moved his body but it became tighter and tighter. He had no choice but to give up. It is said that the lightest crime for drinking in the army is fifty military sticks, but It was the supervisor who offended Da Kui. The supervisor became ruthless and decided to kill Da Kui to relieve his hatred.

The Ming army had its own military law. The military law said: Soldiers who violate military orders will be beheaded. All generals above the rank of captain will treat them equally. The difference is that if generals above the rank of captain violate military orders and want to be beheaded, they must report to the general for approval before they can be punished.

The supervisor came to Sun Qian and reported: "Yesterday at 1 o'clock at midnight, someone in the group leader's army drank alcohol in violation of the order and became drunk. Please ask the general to make a decision on the correct military law." The supervisor simply forgot to report his name. Sun Qian Sun Qian didn't dare to make an opinion. He ran out of ideas for a while. Marshal Xu Da had demoted him to deputy general, and the seal of the general had been withdrawn. Since he was not the general, he had no power of life and death. Sun Qian had no choice but to order Zhang Dakui to be detained. stand up,
