1778: Qualitative

The snow-white walls, snow-white roofs, snow-white sheets and bedding, and even the colors of the tables and chairs were painted white. The whole house had only one window, which was very far from the ground and very close to the roof. Beyond the transparent glaze were thick iron railings with inverted teeth.

This is a retention room of the Taoyuan County National Security Bureau. Fan Chang has been living in this room for five days. After returning from the mountain, his soldiers were seriously injured and sent to the clinic. After the minor injuries were treated, they returned to Ma Wangji's residence. Fan Chang was taken to Taoyuan on the grounds of reporting the war situation and then entered the retention room.

Fan Chang was naturally extremely smart, with grievances, anger and confusion in his heart. After an official from the National Security Bureau talked to him on the first day, he immediately keenly discovered the problem.

Kong Lianshun must have a problem. Because the questions from the officials of the National Security Bureau were all focused on his interactions with Kong Lianshun. From how he met him, to the details of each conversation he later, the officials of the National Security Bureau asked extremely detailed questions. The same question would be asked again suddenly at different times.

After three consecutive days of questioning, no officials came over. A person stayed in such a detention room, and a weak-willed person could not hold on. Humans are a very strange creature. They are not afraid of torture of coolness. They can bear physical harm calmly and calmly, but cannot face the torture of loneliness. Especially in some specific occasions, this mental blow against the enemy.

The current National Security Bureau has evolved into various pairs of different ways without the simple physical attack. As long as you come in, they can always find your weaknesses to effectively attack.

There are some impeccable opponents, but at least so far, the people from the National Security Bureau have not yet encountered them.

Of course, Fan Chang was a man with a firm will, and he was not treated particularly well when he stayed here. In addition to lacking freedom and questioning, his meals a day were quite good, with meat and wine, which was better than he ate in the military camp. At least, not only did the wine be enough, but they were also the best wine in the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, no one talked to him. Every day when it was time for dinner, a small window would open on the thick iron door. Someone placed the meal on the tray and pushed it in from there, and put it back after eating.

Lying on the bed, looking bored at the snowflakes flying outside the small window. But in my mind, I was still thinking about the little things I had dated Kong Lianshun. After being interrogated again and again by officials of the National Security Bureau, many details that he almost forgot before were also dug out from the depths of his memory.

There is only one possibility that the National Security Bureau can treat it like this, that is, Kong Lianshun is a spy from Qi State. Fan Chang who came to this conclusion could hardly believe that from his interactions with Kong Lianshun, he really couldn't feel that the other party was not like a spy from Qi State.

Could it be a mistake?

He held in his heart the expectation of the situation.

For him, Kong Lianshun was undoubtedly his benefactor. If it weren't for Kong Lianshun, his younger sister would still suffer in Chang'an City. After returning, Kong Lianshun brought back the resentment little by little. When he left Ma Wangji, he had already clearly felt the changes in his younger sister. At that time, he was still preparing to go back this time after he went back to the training.

There was a sound of unlocking outside the door. Fan Chang slammed up from the bed, turned around and stroked the sheets flat, and then tidied the tofu-like quilt again. Then he walked to the table and sat down straight.

I think it's another new cross-examination.

The thick iron door was pushed open, which surprised Fan Chang a little that this time it was not the officials who interrogated him a few days ago. Looking at the other party's clothing, he turned out to be a general of a very high level.

He immediately stood up and stood as straight as a javelin. This man was even higher than his direct boss, General Wang Yun of Fuyuan Camp.

Wu Zhengting was very satisfied with Fan Chang's condition. Looking at the young general standing straight in front of him, he sat directly opposite the table, raised his hand and pressed it down.

"Fan Chang, sit down and talk. Let's get to know each other first, I'm Wu Zhengting."

Fan Chang widened his eyes in surprise. He had never seen Wu Zhengting, but he had heard of this person from Wang Yun. This person was in the Wuling War Zone, but he was almost at the same time as General Wuling. Although his status was not as prominent as General Wuling, his special position determined his position in the Wuling War Zone.

"Fan Chang, the second lieutenant of Fuyuan Camp, has seen General Wu!" Fan Chang gave a meticulous military salute first, and then sat upright opposite Wu Zhengting.

Wu Zhengting appeared here, so he naturally had to make a final decision on himself. But Fan Chang did not show any anxious appearance. The so-called selfless heart, the world was wide open. Fan Chang realized that he had not done anything wrong, so of course he was not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.

"Kong Lianshun is also in Taoyuan County now. Of course, he will not be treated like you." Wu Zhengting looked around the detention room and said with a smile.

"He is really a spy from Qi?" Fan Chang asked.

"How do you know that he is a spy from Qi State?" Wu Zhengting asked with a smile.

"It's all like this. If I can't guess it, it would be too stupid, General Wu." Fan Chang said a little dissatisfied.

"You are very calm." Wu Zhengting nodded.

"Yes, and I don't think he looks like him," said Fan Chang.

"The facts are not the same as what you think." Wu Zhengting shook his head: "Kong Lianshun was recruited as soon as we were caught. He was not only a spy from Qi State, but also a spy directed by Qin Li, the big ghost leader of Qi State. Judging from the results of his interrogation, there are extremely many information leaked from him, and many of them are quite important."

Fan Chang's fist on his knee suddenly clenched tightly. After a long time, he slowly relaxed. He lowered his head and thought for a while, "If this is the truth, then I must be a member of the military information, right?"

Wu Zhengting nodded slowly: "That's true. Kong Lianshun knew from you that you were about to enter the mountain to experience, so he determined the itinerary of His Highness King Qi."

"But I don't know that Min Qi is His Highness, and I only knew after the Battle of Panlong Mountain that Min Qi belongs to His Highness." Fan Chang gently defended himself.

"This is not true. But this is not the most important thing about leaking military information, right?" Wu Zhengting asked back.

Fan Chang was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but say dejectedly: "General Wu is right. Such military information should not be known to outsiders. I am not wronged. But I am definitely not a spy from Qi State. I will never betray the Ming Dynasty."

Wu Zhengting laughed, "No one said you were a spy from Qi State, and we all believe you were a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty."

"Thank you, General Wu!" Fan Chang said gratefully: "I don't know what to do with me?"

"What kind of punishment do you think you will be subject to?" Wu Zhengting asked with a smile.

Fan Chang stood up suddenly: "As long as I don't fire my military loan, I have no objection even if I start from the most ordinary soldier again."

Wu Zhengting laughed, "Sit down. You are lucky. General Gan and General Wang Yun have come to me personally to plead for you. The most important thing is that His Highness King Qi has also come to plead for you personally."

Fan Chang grinned and smiled a little. There were so many big shots pleading for him, or the punishment would be lighter.

"The final conclusion of the National Security Bureau is that although you leaked military information, you did not do it on purpose, but were just deceived by the enemy. However, as a general, you lack the most basic sense of confidentiality and ignore military discipline, so you must accept punishment." Wu Zhengting stood up and looked at Fan Chang and said.

"I am willing to accept any punishment!" Fan Chang said.

"You are a soldier. Because you are just a violation of discipline, we just put forward the punishment for your problem. How to do it specifically is your military's business." Wu Zhengting shrugged. So after you go out from here, where can you report to General Gan yourself."

"Thank you, General Wu!" Fan Chang did not salute this time, but bowed deeply to Wu Zhengting.

Wu Zhengting accepted the marching salute calmly, but this time Wu Zhengting avoided one side. "Fan Chang, when you came back, although I did not appear among the crowds that greeted you, I was also watching you in another place. When you called out brothers and we went home that sound, I was not afraid of you making fun of you, and my tears also flowed down my eyes."

Taking a step to the side, Wu Zhengting patted Fan Chang on the shoulder: "Although I am not on the battlefield now, I have fought on the battlefield like you. You are very good, very good."

"So many brothers are gone!" Fan Chang's voice was a little sobbing.

"In the future, when the Ming Dynasty and Qi began to compete for hegemony in the world, more people will die." Wu Zhengting shook his head: "Don't be afraid of death when he is a soldier, and don't be in the army if he is afraid of death. As long as he dies, it will be worth it."

"Yes!" Fan Chang whispered.

Wu Zhengting turned around and walked out: "You can leave now."

Looking at Wu Zhengting's back, Fan Chang suddenly said: "General Wu, I want to..."

Wu Zhengting turned around and looked at Fan Chang, "Do you want to see Kong Lianshun?"

Fan Chang nodded heavily: "Yes, no matter what kind of person he is, he always has kindness to my family. If it weren't for him, my little sister wouldn't know where to suffer. Yu Guo has enemies, but Yu my family, no matter what purpose he is for, he is also my benefactor."

Wu Zhengting was silent for a moment: "Our real men, you should be clear about grudges. You are not saying it well. Kong Lianshun must not be able to survive this time, so you can see him. I always feel that he has any secrets that he has not revealed. If you go to explore him, you may have some surprises. By the way, I forgot to tell you that when we interrogated Kong Lianshun, he kept emphasizing that you were completely unaware of the leaked military information. He deliberately set up a trap and brought it out of your mouth."
