Chapter 605 His Rules for Managing the Army
"I don't care what the owner of the Fuyuan Chamber of Commerce's motives are. I only know that he gave me food and a way to survive!" Ban Gou said, like a wild beast baring its fangs. "Unlike you filthy Chinese, beasts in human form, who tried to kill me!"
“You’re stubborn, and I can’t reason with you.” Wen Ni knew that once a person’s mind is made up, it cannot be changed by a few words from others.
No matter when or where, if you stand in the shoes of a bad person, they will never think that what they are doing is wrong. On the contrary, they will think that they are righteous and that they are doing the most correct thing!
But Ban Gou did make a mistake; he aided and abetted evil, willingly becoming the blade that would bring Li Shiyan revenge.
"You're Chinese, so of course you should try your best to speak up for your fellow Chinese! You might as well just kill me, let me die. I'll be sacrificing myself for the Burmese Empire, sacrificing myself for General Li's great cause! They'll remember me, I'm a hero! A hero of the Burmese people!"
Ban Gou's body was tied to the pillar, but his neck was stretched forward with all his might, his face full of longing, longing for death!
Wen Ni gripped the whip in her hand even tighter.
"No, he's a serious criminal, he..." The soldiers standing on both sides were startled, fearing that Wen Ni might do something drastic in a fit of anger, and tried to dissuade her.
"Wen Ni, you haven't fully recovered yet, calm down!" The nurse, recovering from her shock, also tried to persuade her.
"Shut up, all of you."
Wen Ni turned her back to them and said coldly.
The group exchanged glances, not daring to utter a sound. Perhaps they were taken aback by her rather sharp aura.
Not far behind them,
The officers in the council tent also came out upon hearing the noise, and they immediately saw what was happening on the high platform in front of them!
Among them, Lu Jinye, a young officer in military uniform with the rank of major general, stepped forward. His slightly widened eyes reflected the frail figure of the girl on the high platform!
"She's awake."
A faint sigh, light and brief.
But it lifted the weight off his heart that had been pressing down on him these past few days!
Thankfully, she's alright...
"Commander, this man tied to the pillar is one of the Burmese officers from the battle of Fuping City! We must spare his life! We can't act recklessly!" An officer beside him exclaimed in alarm.
"Where did that wounded female soldier come from? Why didn't anyone stop her?" An officer who was unaware of Wen Ni's identity shouted sternly!
Liang He was also among them. When he saw Wen Ni, he was initially delighted, but then his expression tightened with nervousness. He quickly walked to Lu Jinye's side and said, "Commander Lu, Wen Ni has a rather fiery temper. If she gets really angry, who knows what she might do! I'll go stop her right now!"
“No need. I know her personality best.” Lu Jinye raised an arm to shield Liang He, his gaze never leaving the girl’s figure, his thin lips tinged with gentle certainty. “She knows what she’s doing. No matter how angry she is, she won’t act impulsively.”
"Huh?" Liang He was taken aback.
Sure enough, the young army commander and Wen Ni had a special relationship.
On the high platform
Wen Ni silently withdrew her hand!
"You want me to kill you? What a pity, I won't kill you."
As she spoke, she loosened her grip on the whip and threw the blood-stained whip onto the ground!
"What do you mean?" Ban Gou's expression hardened.
"I said, I won't kill you."
Wen Ni stared back at him coldly.
"I want you to live, to live to see the moment when the Burmese are defeated by China. You committed countless atrocities in Fuping City, not to mention the thousands of Chinese soldiers you killed, but there are also countless blood debts owed to the Burmese people in Fuping City, waiting for you to pay! I want you to go to the military court, to become a war criminal, I want you to suffer the punishment you deserve as a war criminal, and finally die as a notorious sinner! I will not let you become a so-called hero as you wish, Ban Gou, your name will only be a stain in the history of the Burmese!"
"What……"
Ban Gou's voice trembled.
He hadn't expected this outcome; something seemed to shatter on his face and in his eyes! He struggled and screamed!
"Wen Ni, come back! Explain yourself! You killed me! Why didn't you kill me? I killed so many of your brothers, didn't you want to kill me too? Kill me now!"
Ban Gou was in a state of madness at this moment, a madman who had lost his mind.
The soldiers immediately stepped forward and tied him up even tighter, stuffing a rag into his mouth so that he couldn't die even if he wanted to, and could only watch and wait there helplessly!
Wen Ni had already turned her head away decisively and walked down the platform without looking back.
Behind
Bān Gǒu, bound to the pillar, had bloodshot eyes and couldn't speak, only letting out a beastly growl from his throat!
He watched the girl's retreating figure, and a tear of blood fell from his eye.
He suddenly remembered the time at the Fuyuan Chamber of Commerce, when Wen Ni was still Hua Ying, hiding her identity, a tall and thin young man. She was under the influence of an aphrodisiac, her clothes soaked, soaking in the bathroom. He too had been bewitched by her for a moment, his heart pounding, struggling to resist being attracted to her!
Perhaps there was a fleeting moment of attraction.
He felt ashamed of his heartbeat that lasted only a second...
This woman is a femme fatale, a monstrous threat! She ruined him, she ruined them all…
Madness, utter madness.
But Wen Ni never looked back and gave him another glance.
She stood below the platform, the nurses beside her still chattering away. What exactly were they saying? Wen Ni didn't know, because her gaze and all her attention were drawn to that familiar face emerging from the crowd!
The soldiers who were watching spontaneously lined up to make way.
That tall figure in military uniform, like someone walking on a runway in expensive, luxurious haute couture, was approaching her again. Such a stern demeanor, such haughty and aloof air!
Under the watchful eyes of the soldiers, he walked up to Wen Ni, unbuttoned his coat with one hand, and wrapped her in the coat that still held his warmth. The familiar scent of soap mingled with the smell of his usual cigarettes.
It was him.
He was the person she missed countless times in her midnight dreams.
She stared blankly for a moment before looking up.
She shifted her gaze from the second button of his collar, mustered her courage, and slowly moved her eyes up his stubble-covered chin, finally settling on his sparkling, joyful eyes!
“Lu Jinye…”
She called his name only once.
The next moment, she was pulled into the man's broad chest! She tilted her head slightly and could clearly hear the increasingly rapid heartbeat in his chest and feel the warmth of his thin lips caressing the top of her head!
He didn't say anything.
But the arm holding her was trembling slightly!
He dared not use too much force, yet he refused to let go.
His pale fingers gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, as if afraid that if he let go, she would disappear!
"sky……"
The officers and soldiers following behind couldn't help but gasp.
This uncontrollable embrace in public says it all!
"Cough cough."
Wen Ni had just woken up and was upset; her body couldn't handle it right away. She coughed lightly twice.
Before she could catch her breath, she was suddenly swept up in the arms of the person in front of her!
“Lu Jinye, this is a military camp, you…”
"I don't have many rules when it comes to managing troops."
Lu Jinye said domineeringly, and just like that, he carried her back to the main camp in front of everyone!
