"General."
Under the intense gazes of Ming Hong, Zheng Yu and others, Xia Hougong spoke indifferently.
"The Xue family army here violated military regulations in four ways."
"First, the person on duty in the camp left his post without permission. We and more than a thousand people entered the camp and didn't notice until we reached the hinterland. If the enemy's troops were replaced, many people would be killed or injured as a result."
"Secondly, it is neither a national holiday nor a victory. There is a big banquet for no reason. No one in the army is clear-headed. Once the military situation breaks out, serious consequences will inevitably occur."
"Third, unless there are very special reasons, women are not allowed to stay in the camp, let alone find women here for entertainment. However, in the camp, the general clearly saw two women with heavy makeup, but it is not yet known who is looking for them. Come and settle here.”
Xia Hougong pointed to the camp where Minghong was just now, recited the third crime, and then continued.
"Fourth..."
"Our White Tiger Battalion has 25,000 White Tiger soldiers stationed in Fengzhou. Following the late emperor's order, we cooperate with Lord Feng to assist in the defense of the Chifeng Mountains. In the past twenty years, the army has not been cut off from food and grass, but this month it has been delayed by two full days. On the 13th, as a result, more than a hundred people in our White Tiger Camp were in poor health and it was difficult to carry out anti-enemy training as usual. Moreover, in this state, if we were to fight with the enemy, our chances of victory would be unpredictable, and it was very likely that the enemy would open a gap and invade. I am in great danger."
"Of the four crimes, one has already been punished with a cane, and the other has beheaded the life of deputy general Cao Jing. The other soldiers in the remaining camp have not been punished. General Zheng and the Ming steward of Prince Feng's mansion have repeatedly blocked the execution, and they are not allowed to supervise the execution."
"As for the third and fourth, I can't even explain the punishment. Now that the general has returned from Shuzhou, I hope that the general will take charge of the overall situation and correct our military law in Dayan."
Xia Hougong said this in one breath. After hearing this, Zhu Mo nodded with an even brighter smile.
"understood."
Zhu Mo then turned to look at Zheng Yu, then looked past Zheng Yu and towards Minghong.
"Steward Ming, when the White Tiger Battalion settled in the Chifeng Mountains in the early years, Lord Feng and I sat at the same table. You and I also had a relationship, do you still remember?"
Zhu Mo's reputation is well known to everyone in Dayan's civil and military circles.
However, unlike Zheng Yu, Ming Hong always believed that he was the most favored celebrity under King Feng's eyes, and he often helped King Feng with suggestions and solved many problems that troubled King Feng, no matter how evil his reputation was. Yuanyang, you can't take his life to add blood to his evil reputation, right?
"General Baihu is one of the most outstanding young talents in our country. It is a blessing for Ming to meet him by chance. How dare he not keep it in his heart?"
Ming Hong responded with this, and the expression on his face was that he was the calmest person in the entire Xue family army at this time.
Zhu Mo smiled and cupped his hands at Ming Honggong.
"Twenty years have passed, but Butler Ming is still as charming as ever. He is invincible!"
Obviously, instead of using "the precious sword is not old", "the golden gun will never fall" is used here. It is clear that there is something in Zhu Mo's words to satirize Minghong.
In fact, Ming Hong's performance in the camp was indeed not good. After all, he was getting older, and he used to use that thing under his crotch a lot when he was young. Now that he can still use it, he spent a lot of money to find various famous doctors to carefully treat it. The result of medicinal nourishment.
The man's self-esteem was stung on the spot. Minghong became angry and his face instantly darkened.
"General Zhu, your deputy Xia Hougong killed Cao Jing and other third-grade military generals at will without the permission of my steward. You must give me an explanation today and give an explanation to Prince Feng for this matter!"
Seeing that there was no kindness on Minghong's face, Zhu Mo simply stopped pretending and sneered:
"Why are you, a steward of the palace, asking me, a second-grade general, to give an explanation in this military camp? Besides, let me ask you, where is the second crime listed by General Xiahou that is unreasonable, reasonable and legal? Kill him with one knife, Cao Jing Even if he is split in half, it will be settled. If it were me, I, the general, would definitely let him taste the taste of Lingchi's execution."
"you!"
Minghong was furious and was about to say something more, but was interrupted by Zhu Mo's impatient wave.
"Yeah, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense."
"Is there anyone in the Xue family's army here who has a higher official rank than me, Zhu Mo?"
Zhu Mo has always been the only second-grade military general on the mountain. It’s not that there are no military generals of this level or even higher under King Feng’s command, but since the news of Baihu Camp guarding the Chifeng Mountains was released, he has been the leader of the world for twenty years. Taiping, the only Xisha Dynasty bordering the western border of Great Yan, had already been frightened and defeated by the 800,000 Shen family army from the moment it presented a large amount of Xuansha to Shen Wanjun.
Otherwise, why would the late emperor divide the Shen Family Army's Four Elephant Camps into four to help defend the four major borders of Dayan, the southeast, northwest, and northwest?
Isn’t that just a little bit of understanding——
As long as the Sixiang Camp is still on the four borders, it will never be possible for the four dynasties bordering Dayan to have malicious intentions towards Dayan and invade Dayan without ensuring that everything is safe? !
King Feng also understood this, and even more clearly that Zhu Mo needed to constantly travel back and forth between Fengzhou and Shuzhou, so he thought that he could just send a second-grade military general at the same level as Po Jun to act as a "guard for him" at the foot of the mountains. It's enough to check and balance each other. There is no need to throw the truly capable generals over to eat nothing and only stand in the way.
This resulted in the current situation.
Zhu Mo's question caused the Xue Jiajun present to fall silent.
Then, Zhu Mo shrugged and smiled, then changed his face and asked sternly like turning over a book,
"Where is the leader of the camp here?"
Zheng Yu's legs trembled when he heard this, but he couldn't help but stepped forward, clenched his fist with his right hand to his chest, knelt on one knee, and saluted in the middle of the march:
"The end will be..."
"You are the chief general and Cao Jing is the deputy general. Why did he go beyond your wishes and summon the whole camp to drink and eat meat?"
"In addition, let's put aside the rest of the culpability. Before I left Fengzhou, the White Tiger Camp on the top of the mountain had been without food for many days, but your Xue Jiajun's camp was filled with the aroma of wine for ten miles. How should you explain this?"
Zheng Yu, who had already cooperated with Prince Feng to think of words, hurriedly answered.
"General! There is a tiger demon in the mountain that is causing trouble and devouring the soldiers and food and grass sent up the mountain, which leads to..."
"oh?"
Zhu Mo didn't give him a chance to finish.
"Why don't you and I make a bet? I'll send the White Tiger Soldiers in the mountain to search the entire mountain. If the tiger demon is found, this crime will be avoided. But if there is no trace of the tiger demon, you can choose among the ten tortures of my Dayan. How about we go on the road happily as well?"
If these words were spoken by others, even Xia Hougong and Zheng Yu would have the guts to turn a deaf ear to them.
But the reality is that these words came from Zhu Mo's mouth. He knew very well that if Zhu Mo said it, he would do it, and after exposing this lie, he would torture him to death in the most brutal way!
The great fear completely swallowed up Zheng Yu's thinking ability. He hesitated and couldn't say any more words of defense. Seeing this, Zhu Mo's smile returned and his right hand slowly touched his waist.
"It seems that you are treating Baihuying as a fool!"
