Husband is not good: this concubine and three husbands

Chapter 341 I would like to plead guilty and accept punishment

After counting, only two thousand survived in the end.The military doctor who came with the team began to treat the wounded, Jin Yan told Ning Xixiao to go back to the camp to rest, let Dong Lei take care of him, and she joined the ranks of treating the wounded.

When Ning Xiyao led a large number of soldiers back, the wounded soldiers had been settled, but everyone was immersed in grief, including Ning Xixiao.

He specially ordered people to line up the sacrificed soldiers and stand aside solemnly. When Ning Xiyao came, he saw exactly such a scene.

No matter who it is, they are surrounded by the atmosphere at this moment.Especially for the soldiers who are also soldiers, the sacrificed people have practiced with them, shared joys and sorrows, and they all have sympathy.If they had replaced the pathfinders that day, perhaps they would be the ones lying there at the moment.It can be said that these sacrificed soldiers all gave their lives for their smooth progress.

Ning Xiyao and Ning Xixiao looked at each other, but they were speechless.

Although there were times when Ning Xiyao didn't take human life seriously, seeing such a spectacular scene with the corpses of five thousand soldiers lying in front of him, he couldn't help feeling sorry for his life.

Maybe he still has some self-blame, it's all because of his own selfish desires, so he deliberately only sent 1 people to Ning Xixiao. If he listened to Ning Xixiao's suggestion and gave 3 people, maybe there would not be so many casualties, and maybe he could resist Northern Desert Army.

Facing the sacrificed soldiers, Ning Xixiao said loudly: "You are brave fighters, you are the bulwark of our people in Daning, and you are the heroes of Daning. What you have done for Daning, Daning will always remember! I'm sorry, I I didn't keep my promise to you, and I didn't keep each of you in the end. I made a mistake first, and I couldn't protect you later. Now that the general is here, I would like to plead guilty and take the punishment myself!"

"Plop" was the sound of Ning Xixiao kneeling on the ground, apologizing to the five thousand soldiers who died.

Not only Jinyan and Donglei, but even Ning Xiyao were shocked.

He thought that when he saw Ning Xixiao again, he would be accused, scorned, and angry, but he didn't expect that Ning Xixiao was apologizing for his selfish mistake and punishing himself.This can't help but make him feel more mixed.

"General, it's not King Ling's fault. It's because the enemy concealed it too well and was too cunning, so we didn't notice it. We fell into their trap by letting those two Beimo people be our guides. When we were on the mountain, Ling The king sacrificed his life to protect us, and all the officers and soldiers saw it. King Ling is a good general, please let the general learn from you!" The deputy general who had been following Ning Xixiao couldn't help but defend himself.

In fact, what he said was exactly what everyone felt.

The tens of thousands of soldiers who came later didn't know what they had experienced, nor had they experienced life and death with Ning Xixiao, and they didn't know what Ning Xixiao was like. Seeing how Ning Xixiao risked his life to protect them, and seeing how Ning Xixiao narrowly escaped death.

Regardless of whether they were injured or not, two thousand soldiers knelt down and interceded for Ning Xixiao in unison.

Three days, but in three days, Ning Xixiao led this group of talents for three days, and there was such a cohesion!

The shock in Ning Xiyao's chest is beyond words.

Ning Xixiao said aloud: "The ones you kneel down are the sacrificed soldiers, you respect them, you send them off, not for me. I did make a mistake, and I am willing to accept the crime. If you do this again, you will deliberately call me sad."

"Spirit King..." The lieutenant was in a dilemma.

Ning Xixiao's voice could clearly tell that she lacked energy, but for some reason, it sounded irresistible.After his words, no one dared to say anything more.

Ning Xixiao was still kneeling, with his back turned to Ning Xiyao, he said: "General, please ask for military law."

Ning Xiyao kept his mouth shut. Under such circumstances, it would be embarrassing for him to enforce the military law or not.

This mistake should have been borne by him as a general, but Ning Xixiao took the responsibility on himself. If he was subject to military law, wouldn't it be the same as being punished for him?All the officers and men requested that the military law not be enforced. If he enforced it, the generals would be dissatisfied.

But if it is not implemented, after all, it is Ning Xixiao who leads [-] soldiers on a mission, and the proportion of casualties is so large, if he is innocent, the soldiers who came later may not agree, it is unfair to his decision, and it is not conducive to stabilizing the morale of the army .

"General, according to the military law, I should be punished with a hundred sticks. Please also enforce the military law!" Ning Xixiao reminded again.

A hundred sticks? !Is he crazy?Doesn't he know what's going on with his body now?How could it be possible to bear the punishment of a hundred rods?
Jinyan's eyes widened, she was really angry at Ning Xixiao's stubbornness.

Dong Lei anxiously said to Ning Xiyao: "General, in order to complete the mission, King Ling was poisoned by the enemy and has not yet recovered. He is currently weak and cannot bear the punishment of a hundred rods. Dong Lei is willing to be punished on behalf of King Ling!" Dong Lei knelt on one knee and begged.

He was poisoned?

Ning Xiyao was surprised. After thinking about it, his face was indeed pale just now. He thought it was because of the guilt for the dead soldiers that his face was so bad. It turned out that he had not recovered from the poisoning.

"Dong Lei, step back!" Ning Xixiao ordered Dong Lei.

"My lord, how can you endure this hundred sticks?"

"I deserve it."

Ning Xiyao watched them talking. He didn't know what happened on the mountain, but when he came from the mountain, he did see many sacrificed bodies. They must have experienced fierce battles on the mountain.And Ning Xixiao was poisoned, and he didn't know why.But at this time, it would be absolutely unwise for him to hit another hundred sticks cruelly.

Ning Xiyao said loudly: "The inspector is not clear and the leader is not effective. He should be punished. According to the military law, he will receive a hundred sticks! Execute immediately!"

"General!" Two thousand soldiers begged in unison.

But Ning Xiyao said: "As a general, he should be punished, and this general is the one who made the decision this time, so he should be punished even more. Moreover, King Ling is the fourth brother of this general, and he should be punished for his brother. King Ling and I each receive fifty military staffs, and we will never bend the law for personal gain, do you have any objections?"

The deputy general beside Ning Xiyao said: "General, you are our main general. This is the critical moment for us to fight the Beimo Army. If you are injured again, it will be very bad for morale. Please also consider the overall situation, general, and don't punished."

"Needless to say, my fourth brother and I have a clear distinction between public and private. If we are wrong, we will not evade responsibility. I also want to take this opportunity to tell everyone that although we are princes, we will never act arbitrarily and disregard military discipline because of this. Lieutenant General , please enforce the military law for me and King Ling."

Ning Xixiao didn't argue any more, all he could see were the five thousand lifeless soldiers lying horizontally, he did have some negligence, or in other words, he was punished to make himself feel better.As for Ning Xiyao wanting to take this opportunity to magnify his good image, he no longer wants to care about it.
