Chapter 788 788 Military law, deceiving the superiors and concealing the inferiors
Their status as soldiers means they are destined to be different from ordinary people, even if they make mistakes.
"We are soldiers, and our military registration is in Yanbei. Unless you come up with irrefutable evidence to prove that we are the murderers of Mr. Mo Wen, otherwise... not to mention 50,000 of you, even 500,000, will not be able to legally
Take us away."
Apocalypse is a country based on laws. Apocalypse's laws clearly stipulate that if those who join the army make mistakes, they will be handled by the local military and military law will be enforced.
Military law is stricter than ordinary laws. In other words, Apocalypse's requirements for soldiers are higher than those for ordinary people.
But this is also a loophole.
"There are witnesses who saw the eight of you. Isn't this evidence enough?" To be honest, Commander Xiao really didn't know there was such a law before he came. After hearing the words of these eight people, Commander Xiao was silent and stunned for a long time.
I couldn't believe what I heard.
Is there such a thing as a law?
Since there is such a provision, why does the emperor still need him to lead troops to capture people?
Isn't this playing with him?
Commander Xiao was so aggrieved that he almost vomited blood.
"Hmph... Are you trying to fool us with that kind of evidence? And... any one of the eight of us who wants to kill Mr. Mo Wen will not do it by himself, and even if he does it by himself, it will take eight of us together.
"Anyone with one hand can crush Mr. Mo Wen to death." The person who spoke was Zhu Ba, who immediately took control of the situation after he arrived, and he was not as easy to talk to as Cheng Ming.
Without giving Commander Xiao a chance to speak, Zhu Ba directly ordered: "Okay, since we are suspects, we won't embarrass you. It's impossible to take the eight of us away, but you can stay and keep an eye on us.
Eight. Are you going to stay together with 50,000 people? Or how many of you are going to stay?"
In such a short period of time, they figured out the opponent's number clearly and dared to let 50,000 people in. This shows the courage of Yan Bei's army.
Commander Xiao originally thought that today's errand would be impossible, but unexpectedly, there was a twist and a new opportunity. He was silent for a moment and said: "I want to ask Shangfeng for advice on this matter."
Who is the leader of the Imperial Guard?
Only the person sitting in the seat.
Zhu Ba did not embarrass Commander Xiao and immediately let him go: "Go, we will take good care of you brothers. However, I advise you to warn them before leaving, otherwise you will really take good care of them." The last one said "take good care of them."
"Zhu Ba's bite was very heavy, and the meaning was very obvious.
Commander Xiao responded silently and led his soldiers out. I don’t know what he said to those people. I only know that when they came in again, their faces were much calmer. At least Zhu Ba and the others could see it.
It's pleasing to the eye: "This is not bad, it looks a bit like a Beijing soldier."
The soldiers from the capital were just obedient and honest, and there was no need to fight with them. If we were to talk about fighting, who could beat them?
"My people will stay here, please don't go out a step." Commander Xiao was led along the whole way. You can imagine his frustration. It was rare for him to be able to express his anger, so he would not give in.
"It doesn't matter, just keep it...remember, we don't care about your three meals a day." Zhu Ba didn't take it seriously. They had already made preparations. There was nothing that they couldn't see in the military camp. These people loved to be gatekeepers.
Dog, just be a watchdog.
When Commander Xiao saw this group of soldiers in Yanbei and how talkative they were, he was a little unsure whether they were trying to trick him. Commander Xiao's face became more solemn, and he didn't dare to delay any more, so he hurried back to the city to bring this person to the city.
Report the matter to the Emperor.
The emperor was waiting for the good news about Commander Xiao in the palace. When he heard the eunuch reported that Commander Xiao was asking for an audience, the emperor was overjoyed and immediately announced that Commander Xiao had come in.
"The thing is done?" As long as a person falls into his hands, no matter whether he is guilty or not, he will be guilty in the end.
The guilt of these eight people is certain. Not only did they break half of Xiao Jiu'an's arm, but Xiao Jiu'an can never be cleared.
"Being in a humble position means betraying the emperor's favor." Commander Xiao did not dare to look at the emperor and buried his head very low.
The emperor was stunned and suddenly went from ecstasy to cold sweat: "What's going on?"
"The Yanbei Army moved out of the Tianqi Law, and we have no right to take them back to the Yamen for processing." Commander Xiao told the emperor the law that Zhong Yi mentioned that soldiers should be dealt with by military law.
"Is there such a provision in the Apocalypse Law?" The emperor was startled and asked the eunuch beside him. The eunuch was also stunned. Liandao immediately went to check, but the emperor waved his hand to stop him: "No need, if they dare to say it, they will
It is indeed true. I was negligent and forgot such a thing. Since they want to bring military law, let them be handed over to the military."
One can imagine the frustration the emperor felt at this moment.
This is not the first time. Ever since Ji Yunkai used the law as a weapon, everyone has used the law to talk about things.
Law! Law!
The Zhao family asked people to make up the law. Are these people trying to force him to rewrite the law?
"Your Majesty, their immediate boss is the King of Yanbei. Their army is with the Yanbei Army. This matter must be handled by the King of Yanbei." But now the King of Yanbei is "trapped" in the village and has not shown up. What can be done in a short time?
Can't reach them.
Even if they try to get it, it's useless because they don't have enough evidence.
There is no way to bring people to the Ministry of Punishments and make them admit their guilt "in person".
"Is there no other way?" By the time Xiao Jiuan came back, the day lilies were already cold.
He just took advantage of Xiao Jiu'an's absence to attack them hastily. Xiao Jiu'an is back, how can this matter be settled?
"When I get back to the emperor, the low-ranking soldiers and horses have surrounded the Yanbei Army camp, and the eight suspects have been separated and supervised separately. Next... please give me the emperor's instructions." No matter how much face I lost in the Yanbei Army camp.
, Commander Xiao would only say nice things in front of the emperor.
"Okay, very good! Don't retreat with the 50,000 soldiers and horses. Continue to surround them and prevent them from making any move. Take care of those eight people. It's best to find a way to make them confess. Even if they don't confess, they must be called.
Suicide out of fear of crime, do you understand?" He must take advantage of Xiao Jiuan's absence to solidify this case.
Originally, he didn't have to blame Mr. Mo Wen's death on Xiao Jiu'an, but...
Xiao Jiuan's sudden departure from Beijing really angered him. Now Xiao Jiuan has to take the blame.
"I understand." This was completely impossible, but Commander Xiao didn't say a word and went out to work after receiving the emperor's order.
By the time Commander Xiao arrived at the Yanbei Army camp, it was already dark, and it was freezing outside. There were still students sitting in meditation outside. But they didn't feel uncomfortable at all. There were not only tents but also fires, and even food and wine.
Of course, these all cost money, and the price is not low.
Seeing the students gathered in twos and threes in the tent, drinking, talking, and beating each other up, Commander Xiao really had the desire to kill... (To be continued)
