The entire military camp suddenly became quiet. The soldiers of Beifu, who had been furious just now, shouting and shouting, were all stunned on the spot. Diao Qiu's head rolled around on the ground like a winter melon, and his neck was filled with blood. The blood spurted out had formed a small stream on the ground. Liu Yu held a big knife in his right hand, and blood beads dripped from the blood groove on the knife body. He looked at the dozen law enforcement sergeants with a stern expression. Not a word was spoken.
A leading sergeant suddenly reacted. With a "plop", his knees softened, and he knelt down directly. He kowtowed to Liu Yu and said: "Sir, please forgive me. Sir, please forgive me. There are old people above me and young people below." I only serve as a soldier to earn a living, and I have no grudges against you, please spare our lives!"
More than a dozen soldiers woke up from a dream, all threw down their weapons, and followed the sergeant, kneeling down to beg for mercy, kowtowing like garlic.
Liu Yu smiled slightly and put away the sword in his hand: "Are you all named Diao?"
All the law enforcement sergeants shook their heads and waved their hands: "No, no, no, we are not, we are not part of the Diao family. We are the sergeants of the capital city guard, who were transferred to law enforcement with this guy named Diao."
Liu Yu nodded, bent down slightly, and picked up Diao Qiu's head from the ground: "Didn't Diao Qiu tell you whether he had any general order to enforce the law? Who gave you the order to do this? Law enforcement at the Beifu Military Camp?"
The leading sergeant said: "Yes, it is Lord Diao Kui, the governor of Guangzhou who is guarding the capital, and the lord of Diao Qiu. He summoned us and asked us to follow Diao Qiu and obey his orders."
Liu Yu softly said "Oh": "So, what kind of imperial decree did this Diao Qiu say that he would enforce the law and inspect our Beifu military camp, and you haven't seen it yet?"
The sergeant nodded quickly and said: "We haven't seen it. Diao Qiu said that the Beifu army was all arrogant and powerful generals. They were afraid that they would harm the people after entering the capital, so they wanted to kill them because of their bravery. At that time, Xiao Qiu said He was still a little scared and asked to see the military order in his hand, but he said that he had received the secret order from Governor Diao, saying that all the armies outside the capital were under the control and command of Governor Diao, and the same was true for law enforcement."
Liu Yu laughed and turned to look around: "Brothers, have you heard this? This Diaoqiu has no order from the Holy Emperor to come to enforce the law and inspect our Beifu military camp. He is falsely passing on the imperial edict and deceiving the emperor. , this person is a Xianbei spy. Last time he wanted to cause trouble in Jingkou and provoke a civil uprising. This time he did not change his mind. After our army's victory, he came to our Beifu military camp again and wanted to stir up trouble. I, Liu As a military leader of the Tiger Force, Yu can kill such rebel spies first and then report them, and follow the authority when the situation arises. Do you think I was right or wrong to kill this tricky guy?!"
All the Beifu sergeants shouted in unison: "Kill well, kill well, kill well!"
Liu Yu looked at the law enforcement sergeants who were trembling with fear, and said calmly: "Since you are law enforcement sergeants, you should know that the seventeen prohibitions and fifty-four cuts are these. Diao Qiu falsely passed on the imperial edict and acted arrogantly in our army. He was so powerful that he directly framed us here for treason and tried to provoke a mutiny, which was a heinous crime. I killed him with my own hands, and everyone present saw it. Please come with me now, and we will meet Xie Zhenjun. Report this matter, and you all just go and bear witness to me.”
How could these sergeants dare to say no? They nodded in agreement. Liu Yu turned to look at the people behind him and said calmly: "I don't need too many people to come with me to see Xuan Shuai, Tien Niu, Bottle, and Rabbit. Just come with me, the others stay."
A quarter of an hour later, Liu Yu was still holding Diao Qiu's bloody head in his hand and stood in the Beifu army commander's tent. Xie Xuan was wearing a general's robe and armor, his brows were furrowed, while Diao Kui, who was sitting on the side, was Gritting his teeth, he stared at Liu Yu fiercely, with an expression that made him want to eat Liu Yu alive.
Liu Yu said calmly: "Xuanshuai, this is what happened. Diao Qiu falsely conveyed the imperial edict, provoked in the camp, and even slandered our soldiers for treason. He committed the second crime of bullying the army and causing rebellion. He was beheaded on the spot for his despise." .”
Diao Kui suddenly said loudly: "Xie Zhenjun! Even if Diao Qiu is wrong in all kinds of ways, he is my man after all. How can your men kill him without even saying hello? No matter how bad I am, Diao Kui, He is also the dignified governor in charge of the capital's guards, is it possible that my people's death was in vain?"
Xie Xuan looked at Diao Kui calmly and said calmly: "We all work for the country and have different responsibilities. There is no need to talk about yours and mine. Liu Yu is not my subordinate. He is an officer of the Beifu Army. This matter is up to me." It seems that the provocation came first, and the fake pass led to the penalty, and according to the law, he should be killed."
Diao Kui was so angry that he said, "Is it necessary to kill according to the law? Xie Xuan, don't go too far! Even if Diao Qiu does not have the power to enforce the law, what he sees is always the truth. It is clearly Liu Yu and others who robbed Fu Jian." That illegal mica car was killed by Diao Qiu after he saw it. Liu Yu, do you dare to say that you are not avenging a private revenge?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "I don't understand what General Diao meant. Liu Yu is now an officer in the Beifu Army. What he did today was just to kill a man who sneaked into the camp and wanted to incite mutiny. He’s just a spy, why should he have any personal vendetta?!”
Diao Kui laughed angrily: "You are still here pretending to be stupid! Liu Yu, you were obviously the one who whipped Diao Qiu back then, and you held a grudge, so you took this opportunity to take his life today. Even if Diao Qiu was absolutely wrong, you still couldn't. It should be left to Xie Zhenjun and me to decide on the crime and punishment. Which round will you kill at your request?!"
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Because he dared to slander our soldiers in the Beifu military camp and wanted to rebel! This alone was enough to kill him on the spot! Besides, he was clearly a barbarian. After our army defeated the Hulu, they came to the military camp to provoke them. Wasn’t it because they wanted to cause trouble? What else could it be? It was no problem to kill them with military orders in a humble position."
Diao Kui gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Okay, you can kill Diao Qiu, and I can also take your life! Liu Yu, you guys have all ridden in the mica car. This alone is enough to punish you with death!" "
Liu Yu suddenly laughed: "Is it a capital offense to ride in a non-ceremonial car that Fu Jian rode in? Very good. General Diao, may I ask you, King Kuaiji, and Wang Shangshu if they all rode the horses that Fu Jian rode? What’s the crime again?”
Diao Kui was speechless when Liu Yu asked him, his mouth wide open and speechless. Liu Yu looked at Diao Kui with a cold glint in his eyes: "How about we go to the Holy Sage to make a judgment and let the Sage decide whether Diao Qiu should die or not? Are we doing something evil by riding in that mica car?"
