As for those prisoners, their bodies are now covered with scars.
But they were dismissive of the words of these soldiers. After all, they were not even afraid of death. Are we still afraid of things like criminal extortion of confessions?
At least, that's what they think in their hearts. After all, they are considered veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles, and they have won Li Jue's trust.
Moreover, they are also Li Jue's personal guards. The treatment is not comparable to that of ordinary soldiers, and now naturally he is willing to die for Li Jue.
The soldiers did not speak any more, but instead placed various torture instruments that they had seen or not seen one by one.
Under the dim light of the fire, these prisoners still looked disdainful.
At this time, Ma Tie also happened to arrive here on horseback. After dismounting, he said, "Are you ready for the midnight snack?"
"Tonight, I have to trouble all my brothers to stay up late with this general."
The reason why Ma Tie said this was because they were supposed to have a good rest tonight. After all, we have been on the road for a long time, and even if we need to keep vigil, we only have to keep watch for the first half of the night or the second half of the night.
There is no need to stay up all night. Now he stays up all night with him just to accompany him to interrogate these prisoners.
That's why Ma Tie expressed his gratitude to these brothers. Although it is necessary for soldiers to obey military orders, everyone leads troops differently.
Soldier: "The general is joking. We have been following the general for several years."
"There is no shortage of things to do like this. You can eat, drink and have fun."
"I would like to ask who among the brothers present is not willing to accompany the general to watch the night, brothers, right?"
This guy is a veteran and a centurion who has experienced hundreds of battles. Ma Tie remembered that this guy, if it weren't for his insufficient position in the army, he could at least be a captain of thousands with his strength.
Ma Tie: "Zhong Laoliu, I remember you."
"Father told me that you are the most spendthrift kid."
"If he hadn't made too many mistakes, he would have been a partial general long ago."
"But you guy has always been a centurion."
The soldier named Zhong Laoliu scratched his head and said, "General, that's actually the case."
"The salary of a centurion and a commander is the same, and although the commander is a partial general, he has to deal with a lot of things every day."
"It's really a waste of time. It's better to have a few more good drinks with the brothers."
Ma Tie ignored this guy. He knew that veterans who could survive dozens or even hundreds of battlefields could not be explained by luck.
They must have their own plans. His father also told him that if he could conquer this person, he could definitely compare with his third brother Ma Chao.
Ma Tie: "Okay, let's eat wine and meat first."
"Old rule, everyone takes turns."
Everyone: "Yes!"
Then, fifty people stood up and surrounded them. Stand guard for them solemnly to prevent them from being attacked by the enemy.
This is also a good habit they have developed for many years, and everyone is holding a war horse in their hands. It is convenient to take action as soon as the situation arises, so as not to waste too much time and miss opportunities.
This is also a kind of training for survival on the battlefield, and it is a must for each of them.
As for the remaining people, they were responsible for drinking and eating meat with Ma Tie and interrogating the prisoners.
Ma Tie took a bite of the meat and said, "The interrogation hasn't started yet, for everyone's sake."
"This general will give you one last chance, but you must consider it carefully."
"Otherwise, once the interrogation begins, I will not stop until I get what I want."
"When the time comes, your life or death will depend on how long you can hold on to your will."
One of the captives immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "Gorilla, if you have farmland, kill us."
"It's just some bells and whistles. Are we afraid?"
It's just that at this time, the soldiers and Ma Tie have changed their faces. Ma Tie: "Go ahead and pull out the nails on their right hands first."
As soon as Ma Tie finished speaking, two soldiers stood up and took out a red-hot pliers from the fire and said: "You cheap bones, you are really a fine wine if you don't eat the toast."
"This is the first time that we two brothers have greeted Han people in this way. I hope you can hold on."
After saying that, a man held red-hot pliers. One man grabbed the captives' hands, paying no attention to what the captives were looking at.
In this way, all the nails on their right hands were forcibly pulled out. For a while, white and red finger bones could be seen in many places on their right hands.
Some of the meat was still barely attached to their finger bones, and they would feel a heartbreaking pain whenever the wind blew.
One prisoner fainted from the pain and was awakened several times by the pain.
Prisoner: "You devils, evil spirits, you are simply not human."
"But even so, you can't even think of prying anything out of us."
It has to be said that these prisoners are really tough-talking. Ma Tie: "You guys should really be glad that it's not winter now."
"Otherwise, you will probably think that even if you want to die, it will be a relief."
As for what Ma Tie said, they can still stick to it for the time being. They believed that they could not betray their brothers and Li Jue even if they died, and besides, they could not bear the pain now.
Ma Tie: "I can see that you are really loyal."
"However, I hope you can remain as you were before."
At this time, the scouts sent by Li Jue also came nearby. One of them said: "It's so cruel that he actually pulled out the opponent's nails while he was still alive."
"Also, the lieutenant-general is dead. How can we revive him when we go back?"
Li Jue's lieutenant general, the guy he trusted most in the army, died. Even though Li Jue had already prepared for this, he still felt distressed.
After all, it is a waste of resources to train a lieutenant who is loyal to him, and it may not be successful.
Scout: "Whatever, let's go."
"We'll talk about it when we go back first. The general is still in urgent need of hiring people. He won't do anything to us. He's just going to suffer for those brothers."
In response, they looked at each other and went back. After all, the information has been confirmed, and it is impossible to rescue these people.
Why should they accompany them with their own lives? This is not in line with their ideas.
They left and disappeared into the night, taking advantage of the darkness to leave here.
As for the guys who are being held captive at the moment, they are already scarred.
