Following the command, dozens of tall guards, fully armed, with frosty faces, emerged in the blink of an eye.
Without any explanation, they took control of Sun Jizong and a dozen others.
It took four guards to hold down the obese Sun Jizong.
Sun Jizong was fat all over, the weather was already hot, and now he was being held down by four people. How could he not feel uncomfortable?
He immediately shouted inside: "Zhao Muyun, what are you doing! I am the commander of Shuozhou, what gives you the right to arrest me?"
"How dare you call our captain by his name? Slap your face!" A man who looked like the commander of the guards looked at Sun Jizong with cold eyes and said in a cold voice.
Before Sun Jizong could react, one of the four guards who grabbed him started to attack from zero frame and slapped Sun Jizong hard in the face several times.
The crisp sound echoed at the entrance of the camp, and the officers who followed Sun Jizong stood there with their mouths wide open.
Sun Jizong was, after all, a high-ranking commander of the Zhechoufu, yet he actually slapped someone in the face without hesitation.
Even if Pei Lun, the governor of Hedong Road, came in person, it would not be like this.
And Zhao Muyun, who is also a captain, his subordinates actually dared to be so arrogant and directly slap people. What else could it be except that they have something to rely on?
Everyone let Sun Jizong's fair face get slapped red and blood foam come out of his mouth, but they remained silent and didn't dare to breathe!
Sun Jizong was dazed by these slaps.
He never expected that Zhao Muyun's men would actually attack him.
After slapping Sun Jizong ten times and his face becoming red and swollen, the guard leader finally asked the person who was slapping him to stop.
The guard who slapped the man was still not satisfied and seemed a little reluctant to leave.
Although both of them were slapping someone, this one from the prefectural commander was more exciting!
"Take them all into your tent and await your punishment!"
The leader of the guards waved his hand, and two guards carried an official from the Shuozhou Commandery, lined up in a row, and entered the tent one after another.
Sun Jizong, with a red and swollen face and blood in his mouth, was of course taken to the front.
Of course he was very unconvinced and kept cursing after being slapped.
The guards next to him didn't tolerate him at all. As soon as Sun Jizong opened his mouth, they would immediately give him a slap.
After being hit twice more, Sun Jizong stopped making a fuss and went into the big tent obediently.
Zhao Muyun was seen sitting in the center of the tent, with several officials sitting on his left and right.
Dewey actually sat in the first seat below Zhao Muyun, with an expression of respect and humility on his face.
When Dewey saw Sun Jizong's miserable appearance, his eyes were full of pity.
Fortunately, he had just assessed the situation and rushed to the camp in the north of the city to see Zhao Muyun as soon as he received the notification.
After learning that Zhao Muyun was indeed the newly appointed Pinglu Commander, he was shocked but also secretly relieved.
Sun Jizong also saw the scene in the big tent, and his head suddenly buzzed and went blank.
Looking at the scene in front of them and Dewey's appearance, anyone with a little common sense can see that Zhao Muyun is undoubtedly the new Pinglu Commander.
broken!
Sun Jizong deliberately delayed the roll call for an hour, which was a serious violation of military discipline.
The few slaps he gave him just now were the lightest punishment. Zhao Muyun could have made Sun Jizong crippled if not dead.
Seeing Sun Jizong come in with his mouth full of blood and eyes wide open, Zhao Muyun smiled faintly and said jokingly, "Master Sun, how are you? How come your face is swollen and your mouth is bleeding?"
Sun Jizong was like a mute swallowing coptis chinensis, unable to express his pain: "I...I..."
"I won't pursue the matter of your men not letting me enter the city. After all, I have a duty to fulfill."
"But I told you to report for duty at noon, yet you arrived an hour late."
The smile on Zhao Muyun's face disappeared instantly, and then he shouted angrily,
"Prince Yin and I have been waiting for you here for an entire hour. Sun Jizong, how dare you?"
"Where is the military judge?"
An officer with a cold face like an iron judge flashed out from the side: "Captain!"
"How should Captain Sun be punished according to military law?" Zhao Muyun asked.
"My Lord, anyone who deliberately fails to show up for an hour during military roll call will be punished with one hundred blows with the cane!"
The military judge read out loudly, his voice like the cold autumn wind, causing Sun Jizong's men to kneel down and cry out in injustice:
"Sir, we are innocent! It was Lord Sun who didn't allow us to come!"
"We are soldiers and can only obey orders. If Lord Sun doesn't let us come, there's nothing we can do!"
"If you want to blame someone, blame Lord Sun! He is the main culprit."
A group of his subordinates started talking at once and immediately betrayed Sun Jizong.
In the face of power, loyalty is not worth mentioning.
Now Sun Jizong can't even protect himself, and has offended the new official. If others still want to stand on his side, they will be in trouble.
It is better to let my friend die than to let me die. These officers unanimously put the blame on Sun Jizong.
Sun Jizong stared fiercely at his deserted subordinates, his eyes seemed to want to kill them.
Zhao Muyun waved his hand, asking these people to stop accusing him, and said in a cold voice:
"Sun Jizong, your men are all accusing you of deliberately disobeying orders and delaying your report for an hour!"
"You are not only defying this general, but also defying Dayin's military law. Do you know your crime?"
Sun Jizong shouted, "Zhao Muyun, you're using public power to seek personal revenge. I need to seek justice from Lord Pei! You haven't revealed your identity, so how would I know you're the newly appointed Captain of the Suppression of the Enemy?"
"You sent someone to inform me, but you didn't even tell me your official position! Why should I obey your military orders when I didn't know you were a captain? You and I are both captains, so why should I obey your orders?"
