In the past, Lin Yunfei would usually be quite enthusiastic when seeing his son after being separated for many days, but this time when they met, Lin Yunfei's face was as dark as water, and his attitude was extremely cold. Now even Dong Yan, Zhang Hao and others couldn't help but feel sorry for Luo Tianbao.

Sweat.

When everyone arrived at the temporary command post, Lin Yunfei took a seat at the commander's seat. Luo Tianbao and the generals stood on both sides. Lin Yunfei first asked about the battle of Xingnan and the damage. Luo Tianbao immediately came forward to introduce it. He did not hide anything.

, introduced the whole process in detail. In addition, after the statistics of the past few days, the rebel army lost nearly a thousand people this time. It can be said to be a rare defeat since the army was launched. After Luo Tianbao introduced the situation, he immediately said to his father:

"General, the blame for this time is all on me. It was me who underestimated the enemy and advanced recklessly, which led to such a huge defeat. I am willing to submit to military law."

After Luo Tianbao finished speaking, the entire room was silent. Everyone looked at Lin Yunfei, waiting to see how he would respond to this matter.

I saw Lin Yunfei's eyes fixed on his son, the expression on his face changing. Sometimes he was angry, and sometimes he looked a little pitiful. After a long time, he said: "Tianbao, there is no father or son in the army. This time you have committed such a big crime."

, Dad can’t protect you. If I don’t punish you severely, I’ll be sorry for the brothers who died. Someone, drag him down and kill him on the spot!”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present, including Luo Tianbao, was shocked. This time he suffered such a huge defeat. It was reasonable for Luo Tianbao to be punished. However, no one expected that Lin Yunfei would kill his child. Luo Tianbao initially

He was also quite surprised, but when he thought about those who died in the battle, as well as the crippled Qi Gui and others, he suddenly felt that this might be good, at least his conscience would be easier, so he said nothing at the moment and allowed the soldiers to

Pulling himself out, Luo Tianbao's cronies suddenly stopped working. Although Zhang Hao was a scholar, he was more decisive than anyone else at this time. He immediately stepped out and said: "No, General!"

Lin Yunfei glared at him when he heard this: "Zhang Hao, why did you say this? Do you still want to disrupt our military discipline!?"

Most people would be intimidated by Lin Yunfei's momentum at this time, but Zhang Hao didn't care, and immediately said: "I don't dare, the Young Marshal cannot escape the blame for this defeat. No matter how you deal with him, General, it will not be too much, but

General, you only have one son in your life. It would be too cruel to kill him here. Besides, the war is now tense. Our army will be demoralized by killing the general first. I hope that the general will remember the young marshal's past achievements and give him a lenient sentence and spare his life.

.”

Luo Tianbao was very popular in the army, and everyone knew that he was Lin Yunfei's only son and loved him very much. Although he said that he wanted to be dealt with by military law this time, he may not have been sincere, so all the generals came forward to plead for mercy: "General, Marshal

You have made outstanding contributions and have won the hearts of the army. I hope you will be dealt with lightly. Moreover, victory and defeat are common matters for military officers. If you lose, you will be executed immediately. From now on, we sincerely dare not lead troops again."

In fact, Lin Yunfei himself was reluctant to kill his son, but this defeat was too big. He couldn't explain it to the entire army without making a gesture. Now that all the generals had come forward to plead for mercy, it was exactly what he wanted. Lin Yunfei pretended to think for a while and said:

"Well, it stands to reason that Tianbao underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, resulting in a huge defeat. Military law should be engaged. Since you all plead for him, I will be lenient and push him back!"

In fact, the soldier responsible for the execution also guessed that this matter would probably happen again, so he was not really in a hurry to drag Luo Tianbao down. Now he immediately sent him back after hearing this. Lin Yunfei glared at his son: "Tianbao, do you know your guilt?"

!?"

"The child knows his sin and is willing to let his father take care of him."

"In consideration of the generals' intercession for you, as well as your past meritorious deeds, you will be spared from the death penalty, but you will not be exempted from the living crime. From now on, you will be relieved of the position of vanguard and handed over to the vanguard for the time being. You will serve with the army in vain, and you will be dragged down and beaten for thirty years.

Military stick, as a warning to others!"

It is said that Lin Yunfei's punishment this time is undoubtedly much lighter than before, but when everyone heard that he was going to be beaten with thirty military sticks, most of them felt a little reluctant. After all, getting a military stick was no joke. Even if he was not seriously injured, this number would be enough.

, many people immediately came forward to plead for mercy, but this time Lin Yunfei was resolute and did not give in at all. Luo Tianbao was dragged outside, took off his coat and was beaten with thirty military sticks, although the soldiers who executed him also knew Luo Tianbao's identity.

He was so special that he didn't dare to beat him to death, but he still beat Luo Tianbao to pieces thirty times in total.

After the beating, Luo Tianbao was carried to Lin Yunfei. The latter looked at Luo Tianbao's injuries and nodded. Immediately, Dong Yan, the Shu sisters and others rushed forward to take Luo Tianbao and send him away.

He returned to his residence to treat his injuries, while Lin Yunfei continued to discuss military affairs with the generals.

When everyone carried Luo Tianbao back to his residence, they saw that his back was bruised. Everyone felt distressed and hurriedly applied medicine and bandage. There was inevitably some pain in the process, but Luo Tianbao didn't care, and even felt a little comforted. This was okay.

To alleviate some of the guilt in my heart.

After a while, the great protector Pan Hong came with Yuan Wenjun, the disciple of the "Five Poison Walker". The latter was now a medical officer in the rebel army. Pan Hong brought her here to treat Luo Tianbao's injuries. At that time, Yuan Wenjun was helping Luo Tianbao.

Tianbao took medicine while Pan Hong sat aside and chatted with the latter.

"Tianbao, in fact, it was the general who asked us to come over to see you this time. Don't blame him. After all, the general now commands tens of thousands of troops. If the rewards and punishments are unclear, it will be difficult to convince the public. In fact, I can see that this military stick

Hitting you hurts the general's heart."

Luo Tianbao couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this: "Brother Pan, don't worry, dad did nothing wrong. In fact, he really killed me, and I didn't complain. Who made me lose? I am not resentful this time.

Daddy doesn’t even have any thoughts.”

"It's best if you think so. In fact, it's a good thing that the commander-in-chief exempted you from being a vanguard this time. Without an official, you are lighthearted. You just take this opportunity to recover from your injuries. You can leave the military affairs alone for the time being."

In fact, Luo Tianbao still cares about the war in his heart. After all, the defeat this time was too tragic. He hopes to get the situation back and avenge the fallen soldiers, but he understands that Pan Hong also means this.

Such a good intention, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

In the next few days, Luo Tianbao stayed at his residence to recover from his injuries. Everyone originally thought that Yuan Wenjun was good at detoxification, but they did not expect that her other medical skills were also quite superb. Under her treatment, Luo Tianbao's injuries recovered quickly.

He was able to walk with the help of others in a few days, but his back was still hard to touch for the time being.

During this period, the Linhai Navy once attacked Jueyan Pass, but they did not get any benefits. When the opponent saw that the rebel army was still very powerful, they immediately did not fight hard and retreated on their own initiative. After that, the two sides were in a stalemate.

This makes everyone in the rebel army a little anxious. After all, Li Congyun's troops on the other side are now going deep alone. If the large army delays here for too long, the previous strategy of attacking from both sides will not be realized. For the rebel army,

It is undoubtedly quite disadvantageous.

That day Luo Tianbao was lying on the bed talking about the war with Zhang Hao and others. Suddenly Dong Yan walked in happily: "Tianbao, look who is back."
