When the five people heard that they were about to behead, they immediately panicked.

"Zhang...General Zhang, you can't do anything wrong... The five of us are all court-ordered officials appointed by His Majesty. They are not generals under your army. Your military discipline cannot control us..."

"Yes, I can't care about us..."

Zhang Yong sneered: "Yes, you are all local officials in Liangzhou, and you are not the generals of our army. Logically speaking, this military discipline cannot be killed."

The five people breathed a sigh of relief, and Guo Qiao said, "Since you know, it is the best. Although we disobey the military order, the five of us are not generals in the army. Secondly, your military order is unreasonable and is wrong. As the imperial court officials, we should correct the gains and losses, so as not to be unfavorable in the war and damage the prestige of the court."

When Zhang Yong saw his unreasonable appearance, he was so angry and funny.

"This general's military order is unreasonable? It is clearly an excuse for you to find for your laziness. If it is unreasonable, why can Duwei Wu Qin and others go to execute it?"

"This..." several people were speechless for a moment.

Guo Qiao said again: "Even if they go, they will achieve nothing. Both left and right are useless, so why bother to waste your efforts?"

"Bold! You don't want to do it yourself, and you are still quibbling here and slandering General Zhang. It's extremely hateful!"

Chen Lie admired Zhang Yong very much. Seeing their disgusting faces so much, he was extremely angry.

Guo Qiao shouted, "Don't do anything wrong! We are right. I think he clearly took the opportunity to suppress us. Just because of this trivial matter, he wanted to punish the five of us so that we could free up the official positions we waited for and give them to his own promoted confidants."

"That's right, it must be so. I think Zhang Yong, you are also a traitor and loyal person, and you are full of your own little Jiujiu."

"Wu Qin had followed you many years ago, so you naturally have to say good things to him. Even if he found nothing, you will remember his merits."

Now other generals around could not listen and made a defense.

"No, General Zhang has always enforced the law impartially, had strict military discipline, and never favored anyone."

"However, the general accidentally violated the military discipline and should have been punished forty years. He even punished himself twice as much as possible. After being given eighty military sticks, he forced himself to train the soldiers the next day. He is a role model for us."

"You are so guilty that you are in the first place and slandering the general behind you."

"Yes, I cannot forgive!"

Many generals surrounded the five people, scaring them to their faces pale.

"You... don't do anything random..."

Zhang Yong waved his hand: "You wait and retreat, the crimes of these five people will be taken freely by the general."

Many generals retreated, but still glared at the five people.

Zhang Yong said: "Since you think this military order is unreasonable, then the general will tell you. When marching and fighting, the first priority is food and grass, and the second priority is news. These two are indispensable. Without food and grass, you will naturally be defeated without fighting. There is no news, just like a blind man touching an elephant, marching and fighting randomly, and like a child's game, there is no chance of victory."

"When Zhang Ren withdraws from this city and escapes to another place, his tens of thousands of troops will not disappear out of thin air. He will definitely leave clues. As long as you carefully investigate and explore, you will know the direction of his evacuation, and you will naturally be able to deal with it. Like you, you are greedy for life and fear of death and fearlessness of war. This is not only a taboo in military strategists, but also regards the laws of the court as nothing. You dare to argue here, which is simply shameless."

"You are just seeing Zhang Ren resourceful and afraid that he will leave some traps and ambush around him. Then you are afraid that you will not go there, for fear that you will fall into the trap and will harm your life. If everyone is as cautious as you wait, how can I deal with this powerful enemy around you?"

His words were justified and stern, and every sentence was reasonable, and it was difficult for the five people to refute it, but even so, how could they admit their sins?

One of the four county magistrates said, "Even so, so what? You have countless generals under your tent. Why don't you send them to the five of us? It's obvious that you are in a dilemma with us."

When Zhang Yong heard this, he laughed loudly, and the five people felt guilty.

"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous. With your courage, you dare to ask for your order to guard the gate between Liangzhou and Yizhou? It's a joke. Zhang thought you have no experience in leading troops, so he gave you the responsibility of inquiring about the news. You don't have to wait for the striker or fight. You just need to go out to inquire and experience it and have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. Such a beautiful and poor person, if you are an ordinary general, you will be alone in your idiots and wastes, who want to get promoted and make money, but are unwilling to take any risks. Isn't it ridiculous?"

At this moment, a soldier outside the door said, "Report to General Wu Qin, General Wu Qin, is back and wait outside the door."

Zhang Yong was happy and thought to himself that Wu Qin was coming at the right time.

"Call him in."

Soon, Wu Qin walked in: "The last general met with the general."

Zhang Yongxu helped him: "General Wu doesn't have to be too polite. Tell me quickly. What are you going to find out about this time? "

Guo Qiao and others sarcastically said, "Get harvest? It's strange if you can get something. Who is Zhang Ren? How could he leave any clues for you to check?"

When Wu Qin was about to report, he felt unhappy when he heard them like this.

"How come there is no gain? That Zhang Ren is not a god or a demon. He can't fly to the sky and escape. If he wants to leave the city to withdraw his troops, he will naturally leave clues. It would be fine if you don't know it, how dare you talk nonsense here?"

Guo Qiao was dissatisfied: "Then tell me what you found? Tell me, I want to see who is talking nonsense."

Wu Qin said, "You are so rude. I was about to report to General, but you interrupted me when you made a sarcasm. It was inexplicable that you blamed me here."

After saying that, he ignored the five people and reported to Zhang Yong on his own.

"When the general returned to the city, he finally heard from a village in the north of the city. He said that two days ago, hundreds of strangers claimed to be caravans and passed by the village. But when they were resting in the village, the cover on one of the cars suddenly fell off, and the passing villagers saw that the car was not cargo, but weapons and armor."

"Oh? There is something wrong?" Zhang Yong became cautious.

"Yes, this situation has happened not only in this village, but also in many villages in the north and east of the city. In the end, we also found that there were obvious signs of crowds gathering and camping in the several forests in the east of the city. Many trees were cut off, and the gap was very new, and there were many signs of bonfires on the ground. Although they were deliberately dealt with, it was still difficult to completely cover up."

After pondering for a while, Zhang Yong said, "It seems that they are pretending to be a number of caravans, scattering and marching to the east."

Wu Qin nodded and said, "I guess this is undoubtedly the case."

The five people were dumbfounded: "This...how is this possible...only with this little thing, can the enemy's movements be detected?"

Chen Lie sarcastically said, "This is the way to march. General Zhang is kind and kind, teaches you, and gives you the opportunity to learn military affairs and make meritorious contributions. If you wait ungrateful, you will slander the general, which is really a way to die."

Zhang Yong shouted: "Left and right, take down the five people!"

A team of soldiers ran over and took the five people up. Now Guo Qiao and others became completely anxious.

"You...you can't kill us...we are the imperial officials..."

"I am the eldest grandson of the Taifu family in the current dynasty..."

"I am the second son of Zhao Rong, the Guanglu doctor of the dynasty..."

"I am Jingzhao Yin's nephew, you can't kill me..."

Zhang Yong listened to them counting their background one by one, but just smiled slightly.

"Yes, I know that you all have extraordinary backgrounds and are once nobles in your family. All elders have at least served as the top nine ministers. In terms of age, qualifications, and official positions, they are all above Zhang."

Speaking of this, his face suddenly changed: "However, you are slandering the military orders and wantonly slandering the commander of the army. You are afraid of death in the army, spread rumors and cause trouble, and disrupt the morale of the army. Such a crime is extremely evil. No matter who your parents and uncles are, Zhang must enforce the military law today! Come..."

Only then did the five people realize that he was completely serious and they were all in a panic.

"You can't kill me...you can't kill me..."

"We are not your generals, and your military discipline cannot kill me..."

Zhang Yong sneered: "You are afraid you have forgotten. Your Majesty ordered me to be the governor of Liangzhou and to govern all military and political affairs in Liangzhou. At the same time, I was given a false axe. Any official with a rank of less than 2,000 stones can be killed first and then reported! Among you five, except Guo Qiao, I have the right to kill the other four. As for Guo Qiao... Humph, I will report your crime to the emperor and escort you back to Luoyang, and your Majesty will give you a deceased!"

The five were shocked and their faces were pale, especially the four, who were trembling all over.

"General Zhang, we were wrong, please spare us once..."

"General Zhang, please spare me..."

Zhang Yong waved his hand: "Drag and kill!"
