Chapter 20: Confrontation outside the camp, giving you evidence
"In the 45th year of Emperor Yuan, the commander of Chongli Prefecture, Hu Yan, secretly colluded with the King of Jin, with the intention of..."
"rebellion."
As Liu Qu finished speaking.
The scene fell into dead silence, and many soldiers from Chongli Prefecture looked at it in disbelief.
After a long time.
Only then did he come back to his senses.
He exclaimed, "Plotting rebellion?"
Many soldiers were shocked.
Shangguan Yun pointed at the pile of evidence in Liu Qu's hand, looked at Hu Yan and said, "Do you have anything else to say about this?"
Hu Yan's face darkened when he heard this.
He didn't expect it.
Shangguan Yun and his companions have only been here a few days ago.
He collected all the evidence of his crimes that he had hidden, leaving nothing behind.
But he recovered immediately, showing a look of shock and said: "Commander-in-chief, I have never done what you said, so please stop joking."
"Ah"
Shangguan Yun sneered: "So, you don't intend to plead guilty?"
"I am innocent to begin with, so why should I plead guilty?" Hu Yan shook his head, put his hands behind his back, squinted his eyes, and made a secret gesture.
Then he said, "You want to convict me based on your words alone? This is not in accordance with the rules. How about this? You have come from a long way and must be tired. Why don't you follow me into the camp first and let me welcome you and then we can talk."
In the gap between his words.
Inside the camp, a team of archers quietly appeared and ambushed behind several tents.
The crossbow in his hand.
Aimed at Shangguan Yun and a group of Jinyiwei.
"Hurry up."
At the same time, Qin Yue, deputy general of the Chongli Prefecture garrison.
He was rushing from the parade ground with more than a thousand trusted men, all wearing armor.
'Tap tap tap'
The heavy footsteps made the soldiers in the camp feel suspicious.
He muttered to himself, "With a thousand soldiers, what is General Qin going to do?"
"What are you looking at?"
Qin Yue saw many soldiers following him out of curiosity.
He immediately glared and yelled, "All of you, get out of here and stay by yourselves. No matter what noise you hear later, don't listen to it, okay?"
Qin Yue scolded.
Many soldiers shrank their heads and quickly responded, "Yes, General."
After Qin Yue led his troops away.
Then an old soldier spat and cursed, "What a piece of crap, a loser who relied on his family's considerable assets to bribe the general to get to the top. What's so impressive about that?"
But despite the scolding, the soldiers did not dare to come closer.
He returned to the tent in disappointment.
At the same time at the camp gate.
"grown ups."
The Jinyiwei noticed something was wrong.
He immediately rode forward and whispered to Shangguan Yun, "There might be an ambush in the camp."
Shangguan Yun nodded upon hearing this.
He whispered, "Tell the brothers to be careful."
Say it.
Shangguan Yun looked at Ning He and said in a serious tone: "Next, it's up to General Ning."
What happened today will definitely not end well.
There is no way to avoid a war.
The purpose of this battle is to establish Ning He's prestige.
Let the garrison of Chongli Prefecture be convinced of Ning He and not disobey him in secret.
It would be better if King Jin came to kill us.
Even though Ning He was well versed in military tactics, he still found it difficult to resist.
"Don't worry, Lord Shangguan."
Ning He nodded, and said solemnly: "Ning He will not fail in his mission today."
Shangguan Yun took a deep breath after hearing this.
His eyes turned cold.
Then he looked at Hu Yan and said in a cold tone: "Whether he is guilty or not, it doesn't count if you say so yourself."
"Someone is coming."
"Take Hu Yan away for interrogation." "Yes." As Shangguan Yun finished speaking, several Jinyiwei immediately dismounted from their horses.
Then he walked towards Hu Yan.
This scene made the faces of many Chongli Prefecture soldiers at the gate of the camp change.
He glared at the approaching Jinyiwei.
"presumptuous."
"You Jinyiwei are really overbearing. You want to take the general away with just one sentence?"
"Sir, do you have any evidence?"
"If there is no evidence, I'm afraid you won't be able to take the general away today."
"Jinyiwei, you are really going too far."
"Let's see who dares to come."
At Hu Yan's signal, several soldiers immediately came out and started cursing at the approaching Jinyiwei.
'Shine'
He even drew out his weapon.
He looked at the Jinyiwei fiercely, as if he would attack them if they dared to take another step forward.
"Yes."
Under the angry curses of these soldiers.
The eyes of the soldiers in Dayingkou all turned cold.
"So what about Jinyiwei?"
"You want to arrest someone without any evidence?"
"If you don't have evidence, get out of here! You're dreaming of arresting our general!"
Under the curses of the soldiers.
All the Jinyiwei frowned, drew out the embroidered spring swords at their waists, and looked at him coldly.
There are not many Jinyiwei.
There are only a hundred or so.
But they are all martial arts masters with martial arts skills, and they show their aura together.
The chill instantly spread, and the feeling of oppression was overwhelming.
"I, the Jinyiwei, arrest people."
Shangguan Yun looked at Hu Yan, who had a calm expression and a hint of sarcasm on his lips, and her eyes became colder: "No evidence is needed, just kill first and report later, the emperor has granted permission."
These words.
The anger of the soldiers present instantly reached the maximum.
However, before they could curse out loud, Shangguan Yun changed the subject: "But today you want evidence, so I will give you evidence."
"Bring the people up."
To the consternation of many soldiers.
More than a dozen skinny civilians with hatred in their eyes were brought up by the Jinyiwei.
"Damn it."
"How do these rubbish do things? Didn't they just clean up the mess?"
See these people.
Hu Yan's face changed drastically. He never expected this.
In the past few days, Shangguan Yun not only collected all the evidence of his crimes, but also found witnesses.
"Tell me everything."
Looking at more than a dozen skinny, half-dressed civilians shivering in the cold wind, Shangguan Yun said in a slightly cold tone: "What did Hu Yan do, and how did he treat you?"
'puff'
After Shangguan Yun finished speaking.
More than ten people knelt down with a plop.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at Hu Yan with resentment: "Sir, it's him."
"He was the one who had my family's land taken away, causing my whole family to become refugees and starve to death. There were eight of us, and I was the only one who survived."
"My two sons were beaten to death by his servants and thrown into a mass grave."
"He fell in love with my wife, snatched her away in the street, and beat my son to death."
"Sir, you have to make the decision for us, sir."
Following the tearful accusations of more than a dozen people, the soldiers of Chongli Prefecture present.
Everyone fell silent.
He looked at Hu Yan, who had a gloomy expression, with a complicated look.
"General."
"I didn't expect that what Jinyiwei said was true. I didn't expect you to be such a person."
An old soldier looked at the dozen or so people who were extremely sad, his eyes were bloodshot, and he wanted to tear Hu Yan alive. He said angrily: "A person like you is worthy of being our general?"
