Water Margin: You dog official, you still say you don’t know martial arts?

Chapter 974 Qin Hui: Then my confession was in vain, right? [3 more]

Qin Hui subconsciously pulled the reins of his horse and asked several followers behind him, but they all said they didn't see it clearly.

"Shh-"

The wind is back again!

Qin Hui was shocked: It’s a dark and windy night, could it be haunted?
Qin Hui looked carefully and saw two ghosts coming, one looked like a crab and the other looked like a mouse...

"Are you humans or ghosts?"

A brave henchman drew his knife, pointed it at the two men and shouted at them.

Not only Qin Hui, everyone thought it was a ghost - how could a person run faster than a horse?

Except for this brave henchman, the other henchmen were all trembling with fear just like Qin Hui...

"you guess!"

The man who looked like a rat laughed and suddenly jumped up high like a big flea!

The three followers stared in amazement as the man landed in front of them. A cold light flashed once, twice, and three times!
The three followers were not experts and were frightened, so they had no time to resist the man's attack.

By the time they reacted, they felt as if a hole had appeared on their neck, and cool air was blowing in!

Finally, the man came to Qin Hui and said with a fake smile:
"Birdman, come with us!"

Qin Hui hurriedly looked at his three followers, only to see them fall off their horses in perfect sync:
"Puff thump thump thump thump..."

It was a dark and windy night and Qin Hui couldn't see clearly how he died, which made him even more frightened.

"Pfft!"

Qin Hui's legs went weak and he fell to his knees, his face pale and trembling:
"Please, don't kill me..."

The crab-faced man had already come over and grabbed him, and was holding the rat-like man with his right hand:
Leave you!

"Shh-"

Qin Hui suddenly felt like he was being blown away by a gust of wind. The strong wind blew in his face and he couldn't open his eyes...

"Ahhh-"

Qin Hui couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise, and as a result, the strong wind blowing in his face all poured into his mouth!

I was full in a short while...

When Qin Hui woke up, he had already been brought before Liu Gao.

Qin Hui was thrown out of the door with a confused look on his face, and Zhang Bao and Wang Heng, two giant men who were ten feet tall, served him together.

"Your Highness, I have accomplished your mission!"

Shi Qian told Liu Gao what he had found out:
"I have learned that the Wolf Lord of the Jin Kingdom is in Yanjing...

"Yanjing originally had 50,000 Jin soldiers. The Grand Marshal Shan Shituo took away 10,000 Jin soldiers and no one knows where they went...

"Wuzhu went to see the Wolf Lord of the Jin Kingdom overnight. He seemed to have something important to report. Unfortunately, I didn't hear what he said...

"On the way back, I met Qin Hui and brought him back...

"I wonder if Qin Hui has anything to do with Wushu's meeting with the Wolf Lord of the Jin Kingdom overnight..."

"Wanyan Wuguda is also in Yanjing?"

Liu Gao's eyes lit up. He originally thought that he would have to fight to Huanglong Mansion before he could meet the old wolf lord of the Jin Kingdom.

Unexpectedly, Wanyan Wuguda came to the door himself, so he was dealt with as well.

"You're right. It must be because of Qin Hui."

Liu Gao waved his hand and said, "Bring Qin Hui in."

"Yes!"

Shi Qian went out and brought Qin Hui in. Liu Gao asked him:

"What did you do when you went to Jin?"

Qin Hui's eyes rolled around and he muttered, "Deputy Commander, I am only following orders to contact the Kingdom of Jin..."

Liu Gao laughed and didn't waste any words with him: "Old Dai, how many kinds of punishments are you proficient in?"

Dai Zong was originally a jailer in Jiangzhou. When it came to punishment, he was a professional and a skilled worker.

"Don't worry, sir!"

Dai Zong deliberately cracked his knuckles:
"I have ten thousand ways of punishing him to pry open his mouth!"

"most!"

Liu Gao raised his hand: Please start your performance!
Dai Zong walked up to Qin Hui with a grim smile on his face, grabbed Qin Hui's neck, and carried him out.

Qin Hui struggled desperately, trying to beg for mercy, but his neck was strangled and he couldn't make a sound... Just as Dai Zong dragged Qin Hui to the door and was about to leave, Liu Gao suddenly remembered something:
"Wait!"

Dai Zong stopped and asked, "What do you want, sir?"

Liu Gao: "Do you know about interrogation under sackcloth and torture?"

Dai Zong: “I know.”

Liu Gao nodded: "Give it to him."

"Interrogation under sackcloth and skinning" are the tortures that Yue Fei suffered in "The Romance of Yue Fei".

This punishment has never been included in the canon because it is too cruel.

It is made by kneading the sesame skin into pieces and boiling the isinglass until it is soft.

The prisoner's clothes were stripped off, and a layer of fish glue was applied on his skin, followed by hemp skin.

When the fish glue is stuck, pull the hemp skin and you can tear off a piece of skin and meat along with it!
Upon hearing this, Qin Hui became anxious. He waved his hands hurriedly and mumbled something in his mouth.

Liu Gao stopped Dai Zong, and Dai Zong let go of Qin Hui's neck. Qin Hui knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly:
"I confess! I confess everything!

"Actually it was Song Jiang who came up with this plan, blah blah blah..."

The strategy was proposed by Qin Hui, but at this time Qin Hui did not hesitate to put the blame on Song Jiang.

"You are so poisonous!"

Liu Gao was very angry after hearing this. Qin Hui and Song Jiang, this pair of dogs, actually designed a feasible plan.

Qin Hui argued: "It wasn't me, it was Song Jiang!"

"Really? I don't believe it."

Liu Gao snorted coldly and flicked his sleeves.

Dai Zong understood what he meant and reached out to pinch Qin Hui's neck.

Qin Hui shouted: "I have already confessed, why do you still want to execute me?"

"Without torture, how can I know whether your words are true or false?"

Liu Gao waved his hand impatiently:
"Take him out, put him in sackcloth and interrogate him!"

"what--"

Qin Hui cried: I have already confessed, why do you still have to interrogate me?
Then my suggestion was in vain?

Of course Liu Gao would not tell him that it was revenge for Yue Fei. Dai Zong grabbed Qin Hui's neck and strode out.

An hour later, Dai Zong came back, dragging Qin Hui, who was covered in blood and looked like a dead dog:
"Husband, I asked, it should be true!"

Liu Gao nodded: "Take him to treat his injuries.

"Don't let him die. That would be too much of a reward for him."

"Yes!"

Dai Zong didn't know why Liu Gao hated Qin Hui so much, but he did whatever Liu Gao said.

When Dai Zong dragged Qin Hui away to interrogate him, Liu Gao had already called Zhong Shidao to discuss the matter.

Now everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.

……

One day later, outside the city of Yanjing.

Hundreds of thousands of Song troops and hundreds of thousands of Han troops had set up camp and surrounded the city of Yanjing.

On the Song army side, Zhong Shidao and Liu Gao served as commanders and personally supervised the battle.

The King of Han also appeared on the Han army's side.

The King of Han was still dressed in white clothes as white as snow, riding a white horse as numerous as clouds, and still wearing a silver mask on his face.

This was the first time that Zong Shidao saw the King of Han. He took a look and whispered to Liu Gao:
“Brother Liu, everyone says that the King of Han has the demeanor of a king.

"After seeing you today, I feel that... the name is not worthy of its name..."

Liu Gao blinked: "Really?"

Zhong Shidao did not hide his thoughts from Liu Gao:
“Excuse me for being blunt, but his bearing is far inferior to Brother Liu’s!

"Perhaps heroes are made by the times, not real heroes..."

Liu Gao laughed and was about to say something when he saw the suspension bridge in Yanjing creaking down...
