Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

At that moment, Li Ji's expression was quite moved, and the Han sword he held up unconsciously lowered by three inches.

Seeing this, the other generals knelt down on one knee one after another to plead for Sun Ce.

"Governor, please spare Bo Fu."

Li Ji's expression kept changing, seemingly full of struggle.

"You… you…"

Li Ji sighed, then looked up and shouted.

"If the teaching is not strict, it is the teacher's laziness. Bo Fu has committed such a great mistake, how can I, Li Zikun, be without fault? If Bo Fu is to be punished, I, Li Zikun, should be the first to be punished."

These words reached Sun Ce, who was kneeling on the ground again, and tears streamed down his face.

However, as Li Ji raised his sword as if to go towards his neck, the generals present cried out in alarm.

"Zikun, stop!"

"Governor, you must not!"

"Teacher!!!"

However, Li Ji took two steps back in advance, dodging the hands stretched out by everyone, including Zhang Fei, who was closest, and shouted. "You all step back, do not approach!"

The generals looked at the blade of the sword already across Li Ji's shoulder, and suddenly became afraid to move.

Only Sun Ce was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he crawled forward, saying in a tearful voice. "Teacher, no! Please cut off my head, Teacher, you must not hurt yourself in the slightest."

"You all stop talking, the disciple has committed such a great mistake, how can the teacher be without responsibility? I, Li Zikun, should commit suicide to apologize to the world…"

Li Ji's voice, full of shame, spread in all directions.

For a time, not only were the generals flustered, but even many soldiers who were originally on the periphery and still did not understand the situation were also frightened and pale.

"Governor, you must not!!"

Immediately, without anyone's command, countless soldiers knelt down and shouted in unison.

Perhaps Li Ji had never deliberately done anything like sucking pus for soldiers to win over the army's morale, but the prestige brought by Li Ji's undefeated record and the substantial improvement of the treatment of many soldiers was enough to win the love of countless soldiers.

Therefore, seeing that Li Ji seemed to be committing suicide to apologize for the mistakes committed by his disciple, many soldiers who witnessed this scene were almost in a hurry and shouted to dissuade him.

In this tense and chaotic environment, Zhou Yu quickly got up and shouted.

"Governor, you must not commit suicide and disregard countless soldiers, disregard the lord, and disregard the Han Dynasty!"

"Governor, have you forgotten the oath you once made to assist the lord in restoring the Han Dynasty? How can you disregard your life because of one person's mistake? This is truly knowing small etiquette but not caring about great righteousness, please Governor think twice!"

It has to be said that among the people present, Zhou Yu, who is also a smart person, knows best what to do at this moment, which also built the most appropriate platform for Li Ji.

Li Ji looked hesitant, pondered painfully for a while, and slowly opened his mouth to meet countless nervous gazes.

"Gongjin is right, my body must never be abandoned due to a momentary impulse, but it cannot be avoided with such an excuse."

In the next moment, the Han sword in Li Ji's hand turned and cut off a lock of hair, saying.

"Since this is the case, I will imitate the lord's action of shaving his hair to replace his head, and temporarily use this hair to replace the punishment, and hang it on the doorway to warn all the officers and soldiers of the entire army."

"Yes!"

Xu Chu stepped forward and carefully took the hair.

Perhaps, losing a lock of hair is insignificant to a person's physiology, but in this era that adheres to the concept of "the body, hair, and skin are received from parents", this lock of hair is undoubtedly enough to represent Li Ji.

Immediately, Li Ji's gaze refocused on Sun Ce, who was in tears, and shouted.

"As for Sun Bo Fu's matter, perhaps he is upholding filial piety and there is a reason for it, but it is impossible to let go of such a great mistake so easily!"

"Come, take Sun Bo Fu down and whip him twenty times, then send him back to Wu County to be dealt with by the lord."

Immediately, two Tiger Guards stepped forward to prepare to take Sun Ce down to carry out the whipping.

Sun Ce first kowtowed three times to Li Ji solemnly, and said loudly.

"Ce does not regret killing the dog thief Liu Biao to avenge his father, but is only ashamed to have implicated the teacher and damaged his body."

Immediately, Sun Ce was taken down by the Tiger Guards, his armor was removed, and he was whipped twenty times in public.

Each whip was so loud that blood splattered.

But even so, Sun Ce did not utter a word, and after enduring twenty whips, he was carried back to the camp to recuperate.

Throughout the process, the other generals did not dare to plead for Sun Ce again.

After all, Sun Ce's act of chopping off the head of Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou, was so brave that even Zhang Fei was amazed.

More importantly, Liu Bei and Liu Biao are both members of the Han clan. If Li Ji's actions on the surface were slightly flawed, there might be great trouble.

Therefore, no matter what, Sun Ce's killing of Liu Biao must be defined as a private feud, and then Liu Bei, Li Ji, or both, need to make a non-partisan attitude to severely punish Sun Ce.

And after Li Ji performed this scene in front of countless soldiers, at least the attitude that needed to be made had been made. The rest was to send Sun Ce back to Wu County for a period of time.

After Jingzhou is successfully entered in the future and the impact is eliminated, even if Sun Ce reappears, no one will specifically bring up a dead person that no one cares about.

Li Ji pondered for a while, and after asking someone to invite Wei Yan to the main camp, he still took a pen and wrote a letter to Liu Bei to plead for Sun Ce.

And after Wei Yan entered the main camp with some trepidation, he looked at Li Ji, who was writing something at his desk, and did not dare to disturb him, standing carefully.

After a while, Li Ji put the letter into the envelope, then looked up at Wei Yan who had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing this, Wei Yan quickly saluted and said.

"Wei Yan of Yiyang pays respects to the Marquis of the State."

Li Ji nodded and smiled. "I have heard of General Wei's name, sorry for the wait."

"Could it be that General Bo Fu mentioned it?"

After asking a question, Wei Yan couldn't help but carefully ask again, and said. "I wonder what punishment General Bo Fu will suffer after being sent back to Wu County?"

"How to punish him will be decided by the lord."

After Li Ji perfunctorily said a sentence, he continued. "As for how I know your name, it was not said by Bo Fu, but because I know that you once led troops to raid Wuxian and defeated the Yizhou army."

However, before Wei Yan could show a happy expression and be humble.

Li Ji's tone changed, and he said.

"It's just that Liu Jingzhou's bones are not yet cold, and you can't wait to change your allegiance, which is really suspicious."
