Chapter 688 Conflict in front of the city gate
The commander pointed at Feng Ji and said sternly: "Come here, take him down for me!"
After receiving the order, the guards behind the captain immediately rushed forward to capture Feng Ji. Unexpectedly, the soldiers around Feng Ji immediately protected him behind him and prevented the guards from getting closer.
Seeing that these soldiers dared to openly disobey his orders, the commander shouted loudly: "What are you doing! Do you want to rebel?"
Seeing that something was wrong, the centurion among the reinforcements quickly said to the centurion: "Sir, they are all heroes who defeated the enemy. Is there any misunderstanding?"
The commander snorted coldly and said, "Misunderstanding? You led the troops out of the city without receiving orders. This is a form of strangulation of power. Adjutant, please tell them, according to the law, how should we deal with the situation of strangulation of power?"
The adjutant of the gate first saluted the commander, and then said to the reinforcements below the city: "According to the law, anyone who restrains troops and controls more than a hundred people shall be punished."
After speaking, he stretched out his finger to point at the heads of the reinforcements and counted them, then turned to the captain and said: "Report to your lord, the number of people leaving the city has exceeded a hundred."
The captain smiled coldly and said to the soldiers protecting Feng Ji: "Did you hear that? He deserves to be punished for his crime. You get out of the way now and I will let the past go. But if you persist in persisting, you will be punished by military law!"
"Martial law!"
"Martial law!"
"Martial law!"
The archers on the city wall shouted in unison. They were all confidants who had followed the commander for many years. As long as the commander gave the order, they would not hesitate to shoot the soldiers under the city wall.
But what surprised the captain was that even though he threatened him like this, the soldiers who used their bodies to protect Feng Ji still had no intention of retreating.
Seeing this scene made the commander even more determined to get rid of Feng Ji and Mo Shouchen.
He raised his right hand and shouted loudly: "Listen to my order, aim at the suspect, prepare..."
Seeing that the commander was really going to kill him, Mo Shouchen put his hand on the black book and prepared to take Feng Ji back.
But at this moment, someone inside the city gate suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute!"
Following the sound, Mo Shouchen saw a middle-aged man with gray hair on his temples walking out of the city gate accompanied by Cui Er.
Cui Er's attitude was very respectful, and one could see that this middle-aged man's identity was unusual.
"Prefect, you are here!"
The centurion who had just interceded for Feng Ji bowed respectfully. As Mo Shouchen guessed, this middle-aged man was the prefect of Loulan City.
The prefect walked out of the city and shouted to the archers on the wall: "Why are you pointing your bows and arrows at your own people? Put them away quickly."
"Prefect!" The captain clasped his fists and said in a somewhat unhappy tone, "I am handling military affairs, please don't interfere."
The prefect said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "As a prefect, can't I even take care of military affairs?"
The captain said insincerely: "Of course. Since the prefect wants to ask questions, I will report to you that this person led the troops out of the city casually and incited the soldiers to fight against the commander, which seriously affected military discipline. How should I deal with it according to military law? I think you should
You know better than me."
"That's true, but I heard that without his help in treating the wounded, the casualties in the military camp would have increased by at least half.
Moreover, they came out of the city to save people, and more importantly, the second wave of attacks in Rakshasa City has been defeated by them. I think the merits outweigh the faults, so there is no need to punish them."
The commander waved his hand and said: "How can that be done? An army can only march and fight if it has strict military discipline. If everyone has no rules like him, how can we lead this army in the future! So I think we must severely punish them to maintain the authority of the army.
"
"What you said makes sense, but I don't think the crime will lead to death. Let's just punish him with fifty military sticks as a warning to others."
"But……"
"Okay, that's the end of this matter!" The prefect interrupted the captain directly and did not let him continue.
The captain gritted his teeth. He relied on his merit in killing the female slave before and wanted to compete with the prefect, and even planned to replace him.
But now the captain of ten led a dozen people to intercept the second wave of attacks from Rakshasa City. Not only did they defeat more with less, they also killed a boss that was even more powerful than the female demon.
Compared with this incident, the commander's previous achievements were much inferior, so he also lost the capital to compete with the prefect.
"Then just do as the prefect says!"
The captain said unwillingly. He flicked his sleeves and prepared to go back, but as soon as he turned around, the prefect stopped him and said, "Qin Qianfu, please stay."
The captain asked impatiently: "Is there anything else?"
The prefect smiled lightly and said, "I caught a deserter and I need you to deal with it."
After saying this, the prefect clapped his hands twice, and then the tied-up Qiao Chengan was pushed out of the city.
The adjutant next to the captain looked at each other, and then quickly looked away.
Qiao Chengan was pushed in front of everyone. The eunuch pointed at him and asked, "You went out of the city with Captain Liu Shi and others. Why were they fighting bravely against the enemy, but you came back on horseback alone?"
Qiao Chengan first glanced around, and when he found that the captain and several soldiers who were accompanying him were all being carried unconscious, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He explained: "I came back to find reinforcements!"
"Let's go! Not only did you escape, but you also drove away our horses before escaping. I think you just want to kill us!"
Wang Guoqiang angrily accused Qiao Chengan of his crimes. If there were not so many plot characters present, he would have wanted to go up and cut Qiao Chengan into pieces.
"You misunderstood. It was just an accident that your horse was frightened, and I really came back to find reinforcements." Qiao Chengan continued to defend.
The prefect smiled faintly and asked calmly: "Really? Then tell me, who did you ask to move the reinforcements?"
"I……"
Qiao Chengan's eyes wandered around, and finally settled on Adjutant Men.
"I'm looking for Adjutant Men."
"Nonsense, you never came to me!" Adjutant Men said excitedly.
Adjutant Men is now Qiao Chengan's life-saving straw. Originally, he pinned all his hopes for survival on Adjutant Men, but Adjutant Men refuses to admit it, which undoubtedly pushes him to the edge of death.
So he became angry, pointed at Adjutant Men and said: "It's obviously you who asked me to plot..."
"puff!"
An arrow suddenly passed through Qiao Chengan's throat. He fell to the ground, his body twitching constantly, his eyes full of unwillingness and anger...
