Chapter 11 Asking for Food to Save People
When the sergeant saw Ji Wudi ask this, he seemed to feel that the seriousness of the matter was not just to clarify the facts. So he instinctively glanced at Zhu Cong and Zhang Zhijian beside him, hoping to get some tips from them so that he could know what he should say.
When Zhu Cong and Zhang Zhijian saw the sergeant's appearance, they had no idea what they meant. They were very anxious, but they had no choice.
After all, they were blatantly confessing in front of the lieutenant, and if they were to be punished, they would not be able to lose it, so they could only be anxious at this moment.
"Don't look at them, just answer me directly!" When Ji Wudi saw his reaction, he immediately realized that this guy had not been connected with those three guys yet, which was quite lucky for him, because this sergeant chief was likely to become his breakthrough and clarify his wronged facts.
The sergeant was still hesitant, fearing that whatever he said would cause an out of control. He was even more worried that he would be implicated.
"Why don't you speak?" the captain immediately scolded the sergeant commander. This was obviously putting pressure on the sergeant commander and forcing the sergeant commander to speak quickly.
After all, as a captain, he was busy with things in the army and didn't have much time to waste here, so he immediately yelled at the sergeant commander with reprimand words.
The sergeant was frightened and stunned on the spot, and then said in front of the lieutenant: "Your Majesty, the young man really only knew that the lieutenant ordered Zhu Cong to arouse everyone, but he did not see it with his own eyes. He really didn't know what happened in this!"
In order to avoid being implicated, the sergeant commander could only find a compromise statement, neither denying that he offended Zhu Cong and the other three people who knew this, nor admitting that he had seen Zhu Cong wake up with his own eyes.
Anyway, he is just protecting himself and avoiding himself from being in trouble. After all, these are not good things. He has already experienced Ji Wudi before. Today, Zhu Cong and the others really don't want to be tools used by each other to suppress Ji Wudi.
You should know that the tool will be thrown away after use and will not be valued by anyone at all. What's more, he has old and young people, and he is pointing at his life, but he doesn't want to lose his life just like this.
"Zhang Zhijian, what do you think the sergeant can prove it now!" The captain felt like he was being beaten again, and the anger in his heart had already begun to burn.
"Sir, the young men did not tell lies. Zhu Cong did call Sun Ergui. We all saw it with our own eyes. You have to believe us!" Hearing the captain's words, Zhang Zhijian immediately understood that because the chief sergeant did not testify to them, he had already been suspicious of the captain, so he immediately said in front of the captain.
"Sir, they can even fake the testimony. It can be seen that they have ulterior motives. Not only do they wrongly accuse good people, but they also dare to play with you. You are simply bold and lawless. If you punish them severely, you may not be able to control the soldiers under your command in the future!" Ji Wudi saw that the lieutenant had already begun to doubt the three of them, so he simply added fuel to the fire and fanned the flames. He did not believe that in this case, the three of them could still be safe and sound.
"Come, drag the three of them out and behead them!" When the captain heard this, and was worried about the three of them playing tricks on him, he immediately blurted out and issued an order to the soldiers around him.
"Get orders!" The soldiers who followed the captain rushed forward immediately and reached out to imprison the people, seeing that this attitude was really going to attack the three of them.
"Wait a minute!" Ji Wudi just felt that after he clarified the facts, these three people were punished with sticks at most, but he never expected that the matter would be so serious. The lieutenant directly ordered the three of them to chop the heads, so he hurriedly said to the lieutenant, "No... didn't you beat them with a military stick? Why... why did you chop your heads?"
He never thought of asking the three of them to have the heads. Even if these three people had framed him and almost caused him to get a military stick, he would not die. Therefore, he looked at the captain with a questioning face.
"The three of them framed their comrades, had bad intentions, and violated the strict military laws and regulations. They must be severely punished!" Seeing Ji Wudi's appearance, the captain immediately said to Ji Wudi, "You don't have to plead for them. They are worthy of death. This captain will never tolerate it!"
The captain was firm and looked like he did not accept any plea and did not accept any requests made by Ji Wudi.
"You guys won't pull them down!" The captain saw the soldiers stop, so he said to the soldiers.
"Sun Ergui, you bastard, even if I am a ghost, I will not let you go!" Zhu Cong roared immediately, Zhang Zhijian said nothing, Xue Heng was full of regret but had no way to change the situation. However, no matter whether they were regretful, hatred, or helpless, they could not stop the soldiers from pulling the three of them out of the barracks and heading outside.
The sergeant chief was worried that the three of them shouldn't say something, so he took advantage of Zhu Cong's swearing, blocked the three of them and asked the soldiers to escort them out.
Seeing the three people being dragged out, the lieutenant walked out immediately, intending to be executed by himself. Out of anxiety in his heart, Ji Wudi also walked out of the barracks to see if there was any way to save the lives of the three of them.
Just as they left the barracks, they saw a soldier's armor ragged, his chest was shot through his body by a long arrow, and his face appeared in front of the captain with blood. Then he knelt down on the ground and looked at the captain: "Report to the captain, our arms and food transporting the front line were robbed, all the brothers..."
Before he could finish his words, the man fell to the ground and died.
"Sir, this is the third time I have sent troops to deliver food and grass, every time..." The sergeant said to the sergeant at this time, and it is difficult to express his discomfort and anxiety in his heart at this moment.
"Let's kill these three bold madmen first!" The captain seemed unhappy, and just happened to use the three of them to vent his unhappy feelings.
"Sir, I can send the food and grass to the front line, but I must bring the three of them with me!" As soon as he heard this, Ji Wudi knew that he would not find a way to save people, and these three people were really helpless, so he immediately said to the Sir.
"Sun Ergui!" The chief sergeant immediately shouted at Ji Wudi, "This matter is not a joke. As the saying goes, there is no joke in the army, and it will cause you to lose your head if you tease Shangguan!"
