Under the firelight in the dark night, Shen Wenzhong, the camp supervisor and flag bearer of the pedestrian division, came over with a group of soldiers from the camp. Several soldiers were tied up with big flowers.
"I have been ordered to inspect the battlefield and supervise military discipline. These people ignored the military orders of the country and looted property after entering the city. They even raped people and killed the people. They are complete scum. They have been captured. Please punish them."
It's still dark.
The war in Minghechang Town is basically over, and only a small number of raids and raids are left.
Zhu Yihai was sitting in the salt field, still very excited. He was fully armed tonight, but he was protected by his own soldiers, so he didn't get a real chance to fight. He only killed Qian Zong with the last shot.
"Your Highness, spare your life!"
The soldiers who committed the crime were very arrogant just now. They tried to fight with Shen Wenzhong and others who were enforcing the law, but they were defeated after several were beaten. They were still cursing along the way. But now when they got in front of Zhu Yihai, they finally regretted it.
Robbery after the war was a common practice in the military. If you lost, you would rob the villagers along the way. Even if you won, let alone. This time, we sent out troops in the middle of the night and finally fought a good battle. How could we enter this salt farm town?
Don’t want to grab some?
Although there were many orders to prohibit robbery before the war, no one took it seriously. This has always been the case.
It’s time to grab it, there’s no one who doesn’t take the money when they see it, and it’s definitely a pleasure to see a beautiful lady get a chance.
If you encounter resistance, you can't just cut off your head with a knife, but you can also pretend to be a military leader.
As mentioned above, generally people turn a blind eye.
But who knew that this time I would meet someone more serious.
The night is cool, but there are a lot of mosquitoes.
Zhu Yihai was hungry and was eating meat. The horses and mules that were killed by the rebels were directly slaughtered for stew. If the weather was not dealt with as soon as possible, it would become rotten and smelly.
"Shen Qing, list the crimes of these people one by one."
"Yes, Your Highness." Shen Wenzhong was dressed in a blue robe, with a breastplate on his chest, a sword in his hand, and an iron helmet on his head. He looked quite majestic.
"Zhao Dahe, the post commander of the Shenji Battalion, was a former soldier from the Tongcheng camp in Dinghai, Zhejiang, and was originally from Dengzhou. He was 46 years old. After entering the city, he and Tongshi's men broke into the house of a merchant in the town and killed the merchant's family and nine slaves.
He raped the three concubines, robbed property, and hid the spoils of war. I was ordered to supervise him, and he even led his men to resist arrest by force."
·····
"Killed nine people, raped three, plundered about three hundred taels of gold and silver and other items, and resisted arrest and injured two people." Zhu Yihai looked very ugly after listening to Shen Wenzhong's report.
He put down his chopsticks and stood up.
"Today, the town of Minghe suffered heavy casualties. Countless people were subjected to sword fighting, and their families were destroyed. We are the army of the King of Justice. We were originally here to save the people from fire and water, but you are actually worse than animals?"
"Your Highness, I made a mistake. Please spare my life. I don't dare to do it anymore." Zhao Dahe begged for mercy in a panic, and several of his men also knelt down and kowtowed.
Zhu Yihai gritted his teeth.
"Tear off their military robes. They are not worthy of being left alone in the imperial camp. Hang them up and put them on trial in front of the entire army at dawn!"
"Your Highness, please spare your life!"
Zhu Yihai walked up to Zhao Dahe and said, "You are also a veteran. In the past, you could not control Gu, but now that you have entered Gu Army camp, you must obey Gu Army's orders. Gu previously gave you rewards and pay, did you starve? I have treated you badly.
?"
Zhao Dahe lowered his head in shame.
"You are soldiers, soldiers who defend your home and country, and protect the country and the people, not gangsters who oppress the people. Where do your silver rewards and your military pay come from? They are provided by the people. They are your food, clothing, and parents."
Zhu Yihai angrily slapped Zhao Dahe on the face, knocking out several of his teeth.
Still unable to understand his hatred, he kicked him over again.
"hang up."
"Spare you?"
"Who will God spare?"
"Gu Zao has said something beforehand. Don't say that he didn't predict what he said. If you ignore it, don't blame Gu Zao for being cold and ruthless."
"Shen Wenzhong, please go and send an order to the whole army, and ask the flag bearers and officers of the two battalions of Shenji to personally take their servants to inspect various places and control their subordinates. If you find anyone who violates military orders, kills people, and rapes people,
, rob people, and seize private possessions, all are captured on the spot. If anything happens to one of his subordinates, his superiors will be investigated together."
"If an ordinary battalion soldier commits a crime, the commander will be guilty of the same crime. If the commander commits a crime, the team commander will be guilty of the same crime. If the team commander commits a crime, the sentry commander will be guilty of the same crime. If the sentry commander committed a crime, the battalion officers will be guilty of the same crime!"
"I don't care whether he is from the Banner Battalion or the Shenji Battalion, or whether he is from the Ming Dynasty or the Franconian Battalion, or whether he was a recruit from Zhejiang Town, Shipu Camp, Haimen or Ningbo.
, all treated equally.”
The emperor is as angry as thunder.
When Zhu Yihai spoke, the whole place fell silent.
They all felt the wrath of the Supervisory State, which was the wrath of the true dragon.
The soldiers were stripped naked and hung on the flagpole. First, each of them was whipped twenty times, until their skin and flesh were torn, and they screamed in agony.
The blood attracted many mosquito bites, which made them even more painful.
Under the anger of the supervisory state, personal soldiers came out in all directions, and the military discipline in Minghechang Town improved rapidly.
The soldiers who were still at the top were frightened when they heard His Highness's rage. Although the money and silk were attractive and the beauty was attractive, life was more important after all.
There are some fools who still want to commit crimes against the wind, or rob secretly, but they cannot escape the law enforcement team after all. Once discovered, they are beaten down and tied up, and then they are treated like twenty whips and then hung from the flagpole.
By dawn, peace had returned to the town.
The whole city is filled with sadness.
Ye Danggui stayed up all night, guarding the gate with his servants, and the wall was tense all night. Fortunately, except for the gate being knocked down several times in the first half of the night, there were soldiers on the siege who tried to jump in, but they used guns to scare them away.
Don't be disturbed again.
The long and restless night was finally over.
Dawn comes.
A group of men gathered together carrying guns.
There was a knock on the door, and the two clever servants at home came back. They went out to check the situation at dawn.
Seeing that the two men were healthy and healthy, Ye Danggui breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked, "What's going on outside?"
The two families were a little excited, "It's safe outside."
"Last night, Lu Jianguo from Ningbo personally led troops. They defeated Chen Wu's rebels. I heard that Lu Jianguo also personally shot and killed the leader of the rebels, Chen Jun. Almost all the rebels were surrounded and captured."
"Later, some soldiers of the Supervisory State took the opportunity to rob, and they were all arrested. In front of the original salt farm, a row of wooden stakes was set up, and more than a hundred people were hung up. They were all soldiers of the Supervisory State, and there were also many Francons.
Mechanical foreign devil."
Ye Danggui couldn't believe it.
"Is Lu Jianguo here?"
They all found it strange that these insurgent soldiers were like bandits. Everyone had been mentally prepared for this, but Lu Jianguo's soldiers were actually able to make no mistakes against Min Qiu?
They thought that the group of soldiers had chased away the invading soldiers yesterday after repelling them.
"That's right, those soldiers are all outside. After the war, they requisitioned some official warehouses and courtyards, and borrowed some private houses. Then there are many soldiers sleeping directly under the eaves of the streets, and some directly on the streets.
Put up a tent."
"It is said that Lu Jianguo issued a death order. Anyone who dares to disturb the people and harm others will be killed without mercy."
Just as he was talking, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and then there was a knock on the door.
Everyone was silent and very nervous.
"People inside, please listen. I am Yang Boxing, the commander of His Royal Highness Lu Jianguo's imperial camp. Under the orders of His Highness Lu Jianguo, I am hereby notifying the residents of the town that the rebel army has been defeated by Wang Shi. Your Highness will be in Yancang."
A public trial will be held in front of the court, and all residents of the town will be able to attend the trial."
Ye Danggui and others still dared not say a word.
"Hello folks, please open the door and sign the notice."
Ye Danggui waited and still didn't dare to move.
"Is there any rebels hiding inside who have taken control of the residents? Hurry up and check." Another voice came from outside. "Archers and gunmen are ready. If there are any thieves and bandits who are stubbornly resisting, they will be killed without mercy!"
"Bump the door!"
Ye Danggui turned pale with fright, and shouted quickly, "Master, please wait a moment, there are no rebels or bandits in our house."
"Please open the door and let us check. We are afraid that some rebels may have kidnapped the residents."
Ye Danggui had no choice but to have someone open the door.
The door opens.
Both waves of people were holding weapons and looking at each other warily.
Yang Boxing stepped forward and said, "I am Yang Boxing, the commander of the flag bearer camp of His Highness Lu Jianguo."
"Ye Danggui, the head of the Ye family in Hechang Town." Ye Danggui hurried forward and waved to his brothers and nephews behind him, "Hurry up and get some refreshments for the bosses."
A small box of silver was placed in front of Yang Boxing and others. They touched about two hundred taels of silver, which was of high quality and shining silver.
Yang Boxing only glanced at it, then turned around and called someone, "How about it?"
The person who was summoned was from the original town, and he served as a temporary guide. He nodded and said, "The person opposite is indeed Mr. Ye, the head of the Ye family, and his family members. They have no unfamiliar faces."
"It turns out to be Mr. Ye, hello." Yang Boxing's face looked a little better, but he still did not relax his vigilance. "I am on official business. I have been ordered to notify the residents of the town and search for the remnants of the rebels. I hope Mr. Ye will cooperate."
Although Ye Danggui explained that they had been guarding the door last night and no thieves came in, Yang Boxing ignored him coldly and laughed a few times. Seeing that the oil and salt were not coming in, he asked someone to fetch a few hundred taels of silver, and then directly gave him a thousand taels.
Even though the money was there, Yang Boxing was not impressed.
Finally, I had to step aside and let them go in and search.
Fortunately, these people did not take the opportunity to rob or even disturb the female family members. They just searched the house inside and out in a very orderly manner and then came out. They were with them the whole time.
"Now please Mr. Ye, please sign this notice and sign it. You must go to the salt warehouse to observe the review later. Also, if you find any rebels, please report it in time. There will be our imperial soldiers patrolling the street in front of your house. If there are any of us,
If the soldiers in the imperial camp dare to violate discipline and invade the people, you can report it immediately and His Highness will make the decision for you."
Ye Danggui was a little shocked by the official announcement of this formula, and even a little uneasy.
I always feel that these people are not satisfied.
"Mr. Yang, I don't know where I'm not doing enough. Please tell me. If you need to change the silver into gold, please give me some time to prepare."
Yang Boxing shook his head and said, "Mr. Ye, we are the Royal Guards of His Royal Highness, the king's righteous army. Those who violated discipline and disturbed the people last night have been hung up and awaiting trial."
Ye Danggui was dubious, "How much does the young one need to contribute to His Highness Jian Guo?"
Yang Boxing glared at him and said, "Let's sign and stamp it."
Ye Danggui had no choice but to sign the notice, and then those people turned around and left.
A group of people from the Ye family stood at the door, looking at each other.
"what to do?"
"Ride on the donkey and read the songbook. Let's wait and see. There must be a plan for being polite to others. Even two hundred taels of silver are not worth it. I guess we will have a heavy hemorrhage this time." Ye Danggui still expected that the supervisor was definitely a person.
Pictured is larger.
Thinking of this, my teeth couldn't help but hurt even more.
Tigers go out the front door, wolves come in the back door.
