The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Zhao Tong's words were astonishing. The sergeant who had been waiting for a long time stepped forward to hold the two of them and walked out, "Father, save me..." Liu Guangshi twisted his body with all his strength and turned to shout to Liu Yanqing. Although Yao Pingzhong tried his best to remain

He kept calm and wanted to act like a good man for the last time in his life, but the big beads of sweat on his forehead and his trembling lips betrayed him. It was obvious that he didn't want to die either.

"Your Majesty, you are keeping someone under your sword. I am in charge of this matter. It is none of the Major General's business. If you want to behead me, just chop off my head..." After pushing and shoving the two of them to the door, someone suddenly rushed in.

In the hall, he shouted loudly, but was interrupted by the two guards who were in charge of guarding the door.

The guard fell to the ground, but he still struggled and shouted, but the two guards seemed to be struggling and couldn't subdue him. Then several people from the law enforcement team rushed in and knocked him down with sticks.

Obviously he was a criminal from outside, and he broke free from control and rushed in.

"Wait a minute, let him get up and speak, and then ask him clearly!" Zhao Tong waved his hand to the two guards to let go of the man, "You guys actually let the prisoner escape and rushed into the commander's hall. I don't need to tell you what punishment you should receive?

"

"I understand!" Several sergeants from the law enforcement team released the man who rushed in and pulled him up. The leading sergeant saluted Zhao Tong, and then walked out without hesitation with several companions. After a while, the courtyard was filled with people.

There was the muffled sound of sticks hitting flesh and the muffled screams of the tortured.

"The prisoner escaped due to poor supervision. He should be given eighty points of military cudgel, but the number is half for those who were caught in time. Now the five sergeants who guarded the prisoner have completed their sentences. Please check their injuries, Your Majesty!" Several sergeants from the law enforcement team have completed their punishment.

After being carried back to the commander's hall, Zhao Yi came out and saluted.

Many of the people in the hall were born as soldiers. Most of them climbed to their current status step by step. Of course, they could tell whether they were cheating or not at a glance.

.Though the few Zhongyong Army sergeants who had just been tortured in front of me stood up and made no sound, their faces were pale, there was blood on their lips, their trousers had been torn, and their trousers were bloody and stuck to their bodies. The torturers were beaten really hard by the military sticks.

No mercy!

The people in the Hedong Army just frowned and showed no strange expressions, indicating that they were used to it, while the expressions of the generals in the Shaanxi Army were more complicated. These sergeants only made small mistakes, and there were no consequences.

They were beaten severely, and the sergeants seemed to be willing to take the beating... All this shows that the law and order in the Zhongyong Army are strict and the law is enforced like a mountain. It seems that the prince's words of "killing" are not just words.

"Your Majesty, please spare me. I am willing to serve my crime well!" Seeing this, Liu Guangshi was even more frightened and extremely frightened. His knees went weak and he knelt down and kowtowed.

"Bah, you are such a bastard. His head is no bigger than a bowl. Please forgive me!" Although the guy who had just entered the handsome hall was being pinned to the ground, he tried to raise his head and rush towards Liu Guangshi who was kneeling in front of him.

He spat and said contemptuously.

"Stop talking about it. This crime is not something that your team can handle. If you hadn't encouraged me to go hunting, I wouldn't have ended up like this. You've done a terrible job!"

"Haha..." Zhao Tong shook his head as he looked at the various performances of the three people and smiled without saying a word. It seems that what he said is true. You will know the truth after this test.

According to historical records, although Liu Guangshi was one of the "Four Generals of the ZTE" and founded the Huaixi Army, his generals were ordinary, timid and afraid of death, and often retreated without fighting. However, he always supported his troops and respected himself. Whenever he was ordered to relocate,

On the front line, most people did not obey the order and tried to retreat. And Liu Guangshi

The army was not strictly run. There were many bandits and rebels who were willing to surrender as subordinates and became one of the largest armies in the early Southern Song Dynasty. He often took the opportunity to falsely report the number of troops and occupied more military expenses. During the battle, he often did not visit the front line.

It is to sit in the rear so that you can escape if necessary.

Chuzhou was besieged by the Jin army for more than a hundred days. Zhao Gou personally wrote five times asking Liu Guangshi to rescue Chuzhou. Liu Guangshi did not go, but sent Wang De and Li Qiong to send light troops. Behind Chuzhou

Sure enough, he was defeated by the Jin army. Liu Guangshi also asked for something easy, probably because he wanted to play a trick of "the general will be away, and the emperor will not grant his orders". Of course, this could not be allowed by Zhao Gou.

When the puppet Qi invaded the south, Gaozong threatened to die so he reluctantly stayed on the front line, relying on his subordinates Wang De and others to fight hard, and gained a false reputation. In October of the sixth year of Shaoxing, the puppet Qi sent troops to invade south, and Liu Guangshi fled south in a hurry.

After hearing the news, Zhang Jun, the governor, rushed to Caishiji on horseback and ordered that anyone who crossed the river be killed. Liu Guangshi was forced to stop fleeing south. It is not known how he managed to get into a high position.

Apart from anything else, Han Shizhong's daring spirit is indeed consistent with historical records. After the Jingkang Incident, he was ordered to lead his troops to Zhao County to rescue General Wang Yuan. When the Jin soldiers arrived, they attacked fiercely and ran out of food supplies.

Jue, his subordinates urged Shizhong to break out of the encirclement, but he refused. It snowed heavily in the middle of the night, and he

He ordered three hundred soldiers who dared to die to raid the enemy camp, causing the enemy troops to chaos and attack each other. The leader of the Jin soldiers was stabbed to death and all the Jin soldiers retreated. When Zhao Gou was in Jeju, the Jin soldiers arrived in large numbers, with tens of thousands of horses.

With only a thousand men under his command, he rode alone and broke into the enemy camp, beheading his chief and causing a great rout of the Jin army.

Later, there was the well-known battle of Huang Tiandang, which lasted for forty-eight days. He and his wife Liang Hongyu beat the drums to stop the Jin soldiers, so that Jin Wushu's army could not take the road back to the north. Wushu begged him, but Han Shizhong said: "Give me back the two palaces, and restore the two palaces."

I

In this battle, Shizhong fought with 8,000 soldiers against 100,000 gold soldiers. He is well-deserved to be famous in the annals of history. He also dared to lead 100 soldiers to the Ling Dynasty.

The character of the challenge under the city is consistent.

"It seems that Yao Pingzhong has a false reputation. What can he do if he is brave enough to conquer the three armies? As a general, he has no responsibility. He only shirks when he does something wrong. It is no wonder that after he failed to attack the camp under Bianliang City in the future, he abandoned the army in order to evade responsibility.

He ran away alone and dared not show his face in the world until he was over eighty years old. In contrast,

This Han Shizhong is the hero, but he comes from a grassroots background and is not appreciated by anyone, so he has been around for so many years and made countless contributions before he became a team leader." Zhao Tong thought of this, pointed to Han Shizhong who was pinned to the ground and said: "You

If you say you are the chief envoy, then you have to take the blame for him, which will cost you your head, so you better think about it first!"

"There's nothing to think about. It's just a beheading. The head is growing on my neck. Just take it!" Han Shizhong raised his head with difficulty and said, "However, I don't want to die under the sword of one of my own. Please, Your Majesty."

Let me fight the Xixia people and die in battle!"

"Your Majesty, this man's surname is Han Shizhong. Although he is just a captain, he is a fierce general. He once climbed up the enemy's city alone and killed the enemy general. Please spare his life and make meritorious service!" Yao Gu saw that Han Shizhong took the blame for his son.

If you don't speak anymore, you won't be able to behave as a human being, so he went out and saluted.

"Humph, Han Shizhong, I have heard of his reputation for bravery, but our army never lacks strong generals, and we don't need strong generals who do not obey military discipline!" Zhao Tong stepped down from the commander's seat and asked people to let go of Han Shizhong.

The soldiers pulled him up, but still held his shoulders tightly to prevent him from violently injuring anyone.

"Your Majesty, the war is about to begin. It's always good to have one more person. Besides, it would be unlucky to kill the generals before the battle. Please bypass them!" Liu Yanqing was annoyed. His son had someone to take the blame, so his own son could only be stabbed.

, but the situation forced this to be the case.

"Your Majesty, Liu Jinglue is right. It would be unlucky to kill a general before the battle. It is better to leave him useful and serve the country!" At this time, Qin Feng also came out to plead for mercy. After all, they have been together in the northwest for many years and are fellow villagers, so it is not easy to deal with them.

face.

"Please, Your Majesty, take back your orders and let them serve their crimes!" At this time, two more people came out to plead for mercy. Zhao Tong saw that they were Xin Zongxing and Yang Weizhong, who were also rising stars in the Northwest Army.

"Oh, military discipline is like a mountain. If everyone in the army is like them, how will I control the three armies? Don't make it difficult for me!" Zhao Tong shook his head and sighed.

"Please spare them, Your Majesty. I will strictly restrain my subordinates and obey the commander's orders. I will obey the command of Your Majesty in everything. I will never dare to disobey military orders again!" Liu Guangshi saw the opportunity quickly. This was His Majesty forcing them to surrender, for the sake of his son.

He just bowed his head.

"I will obey the prince in everything, and I will never violate military discipline again!" Yao Gu also quickly made a promise.

"Please, Your Majesty, spare them, we are willing to be your guarantee!" Seeing that the two bosses had softened, the Shaanxi Army also began to favor them, and all came out in line.

"Your Majesty, military law is strict and there are exceptions. These three people are all useful talents. It would be a pity to kill them now. Please forgive them, Your Majesty!" Zhao Ren saw that the Prince was smacking his teeth and not saying anything. He immediately understood in his heart that the Prince

I didn't want to kill them in the first place, I just wanted to kill the arrogance of these arrogant and fierce generals of the Shaanxi Army. Now I am waiting for myself to hand over the ladder, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the Hedong Army.

"Please have mercy, Your Majesty!" When everyone in the Zhongyong Army saw Zhao Ren's move, they all understood and came forward to plead for mercy.

"Hey, what are you doing? That's all, that's all..." Zhao Tong looked at the generals looking embarrassed and said, "Zhao Yi, there is a way to deal with this in military law!"

"Your Majesty, if a sergeant has violated military law and been convicted, his military merits can be deducted. If he has no merits, he can be sent to the Death Soldiers Camp to perform meritorious service. He took the lead during the war to forgive his crime!" Zhao Yi finally waited for the signal from the prince, and thought about it and said

.

"Well, it's up to you!" Zhao Tong sighed again and said, "The death penalty is temporarily exempted. If you are convicted, you will not be able to escape. The leader will send everyone 40 military sticks each, and the others will all receive 20 military sticks."

Punishment camp, when they attack Lingzhou City, they will be the vanguard to board the city. At that time, I will personally go to cheer them up. If you perform a great service, not only will you be exempted from death, but you will also be rewarded according to the law. If you refuse to fight, I will kill you with my own hands.

Got them!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me!" After hearing this, everyone thanked them in unison, but only one person knew how they felt. Yao Pingzhong and the other three escaped from death, so they were happy, but Liu Yanqing and Yao Gu were not happy at all. They saved their son.

, I’m afraid it will be difficult to raise my head in front of this kid again...
