Two soldiers came over and lifted Fourth Prince Zhu Di up.
Zhu Di panicked and quickly begged for mercy." Uncle Xu Da, Uncle Xu Da, let's talk things out!”
At this moment, he was finally afraid.
Xu Yungong, who was wearing the armor of the guards, was afraid that something would happen, so he knelt down and reminded,"Commander Father, this is His Highness the King of Yan.”
Xu Da glared at him." Shut up!”
Xu Yungong knew that his father's words carried weight, so he could only retreat silently.
How do you beat a soldier with a stick in the military camp?
The victim was pressed on the execution rack, and his legs were twisted up, one leg above and one leg below. After the prescribed number of beatings was half, the two legs were twisted back and hit the other side.
There was also a particular way to swing the military staff, which was divided into two types: "drag" and "bounce".
When " dragging and beating ", the moment the military staff came down, he had to drag it out. With this kind of fighting style, after a few hits, the skin would be broken and blood would flow out. People who didn't know the way would think that the hit was very heavy.
When putting on a show for others to see," dragging and beating " could often reduce the number of military sticks that the person being beaten would receive.
" Bounce " was the instant the military staff was struck, the staff would immediately bounce back.
The skin was not easily broken by this kind of fighting method, so it was common to see blood clots under the skin. It often gave the layman the illusion that it was a light fight.
If the blood stasis was not pushed out in time, it would be terrible. After a few days, the large amount of blood stasis would become inflamed and fester, and it would not be visible on the surface.
This kind of disease was commonly known as a " soft-hearted egg ". It was like an egg that had not completely solidified after being boiled. The outside was smooth and bright, but the inside was thin and smooth.
And once the " soft-hearted egg " bled, the place where it was beaten would rot into a hole, which was quite difficult to treat.
The beating of the military staff was basically a violation of military discipline. In actual practice, there was a lot of freedom.
He could use a military rod!
He could also use the military baton!
He could also ruthlessly beat them with his military staff!
Even more ruthless, he would directly beat him to death!
Xu Da ordered the soldiers to beat Zhu Di forty times.
Instead of being beaten forty times.
There was a hint of mercy in this.
But even so, the soldiers in the military camp who were in charge of law enforcement were all rough old men. With forty ordinary strokes of the rod, the Fourth Prince Zhu Di's skin and flesh would be torn apart, and he would cry for his parents.
Of course, as a punishment to warn the monkeys, the military baton was not carried out immediately.
Instead, he pulled the victim to the barracks and lay down so that the soldiers below could see.
At the same time, it also allowed the person being beaten to fully experience the pain of being beaten, and from there, he would feel even more fear.
Zhu Di was dragged outside and placed on the execution rack. He had already started shouting.
"Hey, hey, hey! Brother, are you guys really going to fight?"
The Executioner looked at him coldly without saying a word.
"Hey, hey, let go of me!" Zhu Di roared again.
However, no one paid attention to him. In the military camp, military law was like a mountain. The soldiers only knew the order. Who cared who was being beaten?
Xu Da sat steadily in the big tent and listened to Zhu Di's shouts, unmoved.
He was waiting.
When Zhu Di was truly afraid, when Zhu Di surrendered, as long as Zhu Di admitted his mistake, he could be exempted from these military batons at any time.
At the same time, he was also waiting for Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's reaction.
Although in the military camp, Zhu Yuanzhang would not do anything to the prince even if he was beaten with a stick.
However, with Zhu Yuanzhang's protective personality, if he hit his son without his permission, Xu Da would have a lot of trouble later!
Therefore, Xu Da calculated the time. The news should have reached the palace soon. As long as Zhu Yuanzhang was unwilling, he would send someone to pass the message and pardon the fourth prince, Zhu Di.
If no one from the palace came, then Zhu Yuanzhang had acquiesced.
The news naturally reached the Imperial Palace very quickly.
Crown Prince Zhu Biao was the first to receive the news.
Zhu Yuanzhang protected his children, and Crown Prince Zhu Biao had also inherited the old master's teachings. When his younger brothers made mistakes, he would protect them.
He knew the power of the forty strokes, and his heart ached for his fourth brother. He hurried to the royal study to persuade his father to forgive his fourth brother.
Afraid that he would not be able to persuade her, he sent Eunuch Li to Kun Ning Palace to inform Empress Ma to rush to the royal study to persuade her.
When Empress Ma rushed to the royal study, Zhu Yuanzhang was in a rage.
Not only did his fourth brother leave the palace without permission, but he also committed the crime of using another person's name to join the army. How could he be so stubborn?
The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang was able to start a bowl game and conquer the Ming Dynasty was because of the strict discipline of the Ming army.
These military disciplines were created by Zhu Yuanzhang.
At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the uprising armies were like bamboo shoots after the rain. Why did Zhu Yuanzhang's army succeed in the end? The most important thing was strict military discipline.
Many of the Revolutionary Army were still alright at the start, but once they gained some power, they would become arrogant.
After conquering a city, the soldiers under him would go around robbing money and women for a moment of pleasure.
In the end, the Revolutionary Army slowly turned into bandits and bullies, hated by everyone.
When such a team was attacked by the Yuan army and other forces, no one would support them. Even their own subordinates would rebel and they would eventually be destroyed.
Zhu Yuanzhang's army, on the other hand, had strict military discipline, organization, and discipline, allowing them to flourish.
In the early days, when he took over the bandits and bandits, the first thing he said was that the military discipline was strict and that they were regular troops.
If you follow me, you'll be an official civil and military official. No matter where you go, you'll be respected by people.
Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang's army was not to be trifled with. They also robbed things and women.
However, there were rules and discipline.
It was fine to steal things, but it was limited to stealing the enemy's territory.
Whoever dared to resist would be robbed.
However, if they were to snatch things in their own territory, they would be punished by military law.
Even if it was the enemy's territory, as long as they surrendered, they could not snatch it.
It was also possible to snatch women, but it was only limited to unmarried women or widows. Those who dared to snatch married women would be punished by military law.
This snatching wasn't about forcing oneself on others, but rather, it was about making them willing to follow you. Otherwise, they would be killed without mercy.
When it came to snatching women, Zhu Yuanzhang snatched Chen Youliang's woman and Emperor Yuan Shun's woman…
As Zhu Yuanzhang's troops grew stronger, he paid more attention to military discipline and strict rewards and punishments.
After defeating Chen Youliang, Chang Yuchun was disciplined and Zhu Yuanzhang sent someone to reward him.
In the 16th year of the reign of Emperor Zhizheng, Xu Da rebelled due to his generals 'indiscipline and abuse of Chen Bao's goods. In addition, Changzhou had not been conquered for a long time. Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Xu Da to be demoted.
When the loyal and disciplined Hu Dahai was fighting at the front line of Shaoxing, his sons, Hu Sanshe and Wang Yong, used grain to brew wine during the famine in Jiqing City, openly violating the ban.
Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the beheading according to law, and Wang Kai came forward to plead for mercy." Hu Dahai is currently leading his troops to attack Shao Xing, so we can spare Hu Sanshe."
Zhu Yuanzhang was unmoved and said angrily,"I would rather Hu Dahai rebel than break my orders!”。
Thus, he immediately gave the order to behead Hu Sanshe and the other two.
Hu Dahai was a general who had followed Zhu Yuanzhang for many years. Song Lian, Liu Bowen, and the others were all recommended by Hu Dahai.
For such an important general, someone whom Zhu Yuanzhang trusted so much, to say that he would rather Hu Dahai rebel than break military discipline, it was clear that Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude towards military discipline was supreme.
Old Zhu was a person who valued military discipline. Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, and Li Wenzhong were all brought up by him.
Now that his fourth son had violated military discipline, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious!
They even felt that Xu Da's punishment was too light!
"You caused such a big trouble? Do you think you can get away with forty strokes?"
