after waking up.

Chapter 2 For Honor and Dignity
After reacting, in addition to being absurd and angry, Li Xiu also began to panic in his heart. He was a small second lieutenant, powerless and powerless, and was suddenly charged with such a crime that he could not bear. If convicted, What will be the result?
It's okay to have been unconscious or dying, but now that you wake up, the result may be
Shoot!

No, because it is a descendant of a baron family, and legally belongs to the nobility system, and will give a certain dignity to the corpse, so it is more likely to be hanged.

Li Xiu slapped his face, it might as well be shot!

Moreover, the other party may have already formed a group to prepare for a series of collusion. When the trial is over, the remaining guilt of the Moxialing front will be evenly distributed, and everyone's pressure will be relieved, and guilt will not have much impact.

"Lieutenant, Lieutenant?"

The soldier called out twice to bring Li Xiu back to his senses.

"Second lieutenant, what can we do? I have inquired. If convicted, we will at most retire unconditionally, and you may be sentenced to death."

The soldier's words were very sincere. Because of the command of the second lieutenant in front of him, he led everyone to break through the siege desperately, and only brought back the remaining 77 lives of the three battalions. Therefore, everyone sincerely respects and loves this young commander. Robes in flames.

Of course Li Xiu doesn't want to die. He doesn't hope that he can "go home" when he dies here. There is only one life. If he dies, he may lose everything. Whether he starts over here or finds a way to go back, he has to survive. Right now.

Think of a way!

Li Xiu's brows furrowed into words, but he was quite helpless after thinking hard about countermeasures. The trial will start tomorrow, and many of the officers here will make up the number of the trial committee!
But it wasn't hopeless. Mulan's memory kept sliding in his mind. The memory of the recent war and some deeply basic cognition first emerged.

Although after this war, Li Xiu felt that the Dirga army was very unbearable, but after all, it had not reached the point of complete erosion. The Dirga royal family was also famous for its centralized power, at least on the surface, it would not allow the military court adjudication committee to be completely colluded.

On the bright side, the members who went to the enemy to negotiate the armistice may also be involved in the trial, and it is even less likely that only me, Mulan Jones, will be tried.

Li Xiu's thinking is running rapidly, constantly integrating the current situation and the thinking logic of the 21st century, speculating on the current situation and possible results, and thinking about ways to save himself.

Thinking about it, Li Xiu suddenly looked up at the soldier.

"Do you know the specific charges against us?"

The soldier quickly recalled it carefully, and then quickly gave an answer.

"It's no longer a secret, it's just that we know it too late. The charge is probably to give up the front and escape, expose the main flanks, and become the starting point for the collapse of the front. These bastards, we have been the longest, and we were forced to cover and retreat. , so almost all of these bastards can't come back! They thought you were dying, Second Lieutenant, and wanted to throw dirty water directly"

"and many more!"

Li Xiu immediately stopped the angry chatter of the soldiers. He seemed to have grasped the key!
"Fleeing. You said they were going to have a trial without a defendant because I was in a coma?"

"Yes."

"I'll be in court!"

Hearing the second lieutenant's words, the soldiers were refreshed. The only one who could stand up for them was Second Lieutenant Jones, but he looked at the bandages on the second lieutenant's body and his pale face, and his face was full of worry.

"Lieutenant, your body"

Li Xiu had some eyebrows in his mind about the accused matter. After his thoughts turned, he looked at the soldier again, interrupted the other party's words, and called out the other party's name for the first time.

"No matter how bad you are, you have to appear in court, Jerry, I want you to do me a favor, it's about our honor, and my life!"

Jerry straightened up immediately.

"Second lieutenant, give the order, Jerry swears to complete the task! The lives of our 77 brothers are all yours!"

In fact, according to the "Noble Convention", even if Second Lieutenant Jonest surrenders and is captured, the other party will be given basic treatment and has the right to redeem himself, but it will be very embarrassing. Blame it would not be too exaggerated.

But the fate of an ordinary soldier once captured is almost a coolie who is inferior to a slave in the second half of his life. Maybe death is stronger, but not everyone has the courage to kill himself.

So Second Lieutenant Jonest tried his best to lead the third battalion to withdraw successfully in a desperate situation, and everyone was dead on him. Jerry's words were definitely not empty words at this moment.

"I believe in you!"

As memory and physical instincts were substituted into Mulan's feelings, Li Xiu also developed a strong trust in his soldiers.

"I want you to help me speak as quickly as possible. I hope that all the brothers will be ready tomorrow. At the same time, it is best to find friends from other battalions or other corps to help."

Li Xiu continued to talk a lot, thinking and adding as he spoke, and finally gave a solemn exhortation.

"Let the brothers be angry, but don't get too excited!"

Jerry listened carefully throughout, not daring to omit any detail, and then gave a military salute.

"Sir, we will never make fun of your life! I'll leave immediately."

After the salute, Jerry did not dare to delay, and immediately went out of the tent as the second lieutenant ordered. There was only one night to prepare. He had to hurry up. He did not know how the second lieutenant was seriously injured and blood loss, how he could appear in court, but he was unconditional. Believe in yourself sir!

After Jerry left, Li Xiucai let out a long sigh of relief. Although he was not sure whether he could pass this level, he didn't like to resign himself to fate, at least he had tried it himself!

Thinking like this, Li Xiu also subconsciously looked at the pistol in the bag, thinking about the worst outcome.

About ten minutes later, the nurse arrived late with the doctor who did not know where to find it. When examining Li Xiu's body, the latter also hurriedly inquired about his physical condition in detail.

The next morning, an officer with a warrant officer's epaulettes brought two military police officers to the tent where Mulan was staying. After a pause for a few seconds, the warrant officer nodded to the military police, and one of them immediately pulled the curtain and tied it. Well, then the warrant officer walked in.

Mulan on the bed had already woken up, and asked the nurse to bring toiletries. With the help of the latter, she simply washed her face. The key was to brush her teeth, and she instantly felt buffed.

The military police never had a good reputation in the army. When they came in, they surprised the nurses who were checking the gauze for Li Xiu.

"Gendarmerie? What are you going to do?"

The nurse asked carefully, while the military police warrant officer was expressionless and focused on Li Xiu.

"We're here to give orders to Lieutenant Jonest, Miss Nurse."

"I, I'm going to the doctor!"

The nurse panicked. All she could think of was to find a doctor, so she quickly ran out.

Li Xiu frowned, only he and the military police were left in the tent, and his heart suddenly became nervous. The leather bag with the gun was on the side of the hospital bed, and he was ready to draw the gun at any time.

In the eyes of this military police warrant officer, the person on the bed was still bloodless and seriously injured, and it seemed that it was difficult to move. Sure enough, the situation was not much better even if he woke up from a coma.

But regardless of the situation of others, routine is still required.

The warrant officer had nothing to say, he took out a document and showed it to Li Xiu, and said.

"Lieutenant Mullan Jonest, you are charged with a felony."

The warrant officer read out the document, stating the fact that Li Xiu would be the defendant, and at the end, he asked a symbolic question.

"Lieutenant Jonest, are you going to appear in court?"

Li Xiu was lying on the hospital bed, his face pale but not afraid, with a slightly hoarse voice, after being surprised, he asked in a very serious tone.

"We, were actually charged?"

The warrant officer showed the document again.

"Yes, and the court will be held in the afternoon. Considering your physical condition, the committee will allow you not to appear in court, and someone will defend you."

Li Xiu sneered, the defender couldn't believe it at all.

"Okay, although I don't know what happened while I was in a coma, but even for glory, for the brothers who died in battle, I have to appear in court!"

The warrant officer looked at the second lieutenant's bandaged and bleeding body.

"The court is not close to here, and the carriage bumps all the way, and you may not be able to hold the court."

Li Xiu's face was expressionless, and he just said a few words.

"Please allow me to bring my personal belongings."

"Okay, then let's get on a stretcher."

The warrant officer nodded and waved to the military police beside him. The two military policemen stood one behind the other, grabbed the prepared stretcher with all four hands and swung it away, and didn't do anything else.

The stretcher was at least two meters away from Li Xiu's bed.

Li Xiu looked at the warrant officer, and then looked at the two military policemen. After being silent for only two seconds, he gritted his teeth. With the strength of his right hand and waist, he endured the intense pain. In the surprised eyes of the warrant officer and the military police, Sitting up from the bed little by little.

Pain!

It hurts to death!
But it has to be tough, it has to hold on!Li Xiu kept hypnotizing himself, I'm a tough guy, I'm a tough guy!
They just think I can't appear in court, so I have to go!
"Cha la la la."

There was a creaking noise from the side of the hospital bed, Li Xiu's eyes were congested, and the muscles on his right arm were bulging. What he couldn't do yesterday, he just managed to do it with a fierceness today.

call.
After sitting up completely, Li Xiu exhaled slowly with a slight trembling. His pale face was covered with fine beads of sweat. After sitting up, he remained silent. The edge of the bed, and then slowly stood up.

After communicating with the doctor, he knew that his right leg was not injured, and he could theoretically walk forcibly.

Li Xiu raised his head to look at the person who had come to give the order. The other party was no longer arrogant at the moment, and the two military policemen on stretchers were a little overwhelmed.

In the eyes of the warrant officer, Second Lieutenant Joneste had a ferocious expression on his face, his muscles were shaking, and he finally stood up slowly. In the process, the sweat on his face increased visibly, but he did not shout from beginning to end. A sound, and no one was called for help.

Just by looking at it, you can tell that this second lieutenant is enduring intense pain at the moment.

"What are you doing? How can you stand up? How can you stand up!"

The nurse who went to find the doctor finally ran over with the doctor, and when he entered the tent, he saw that the second lieutenant was already standing by the bed.

The nurse still covered her mouth, and the shocked doctor rushed over.

"The gendarmerie also has to respect the patient, his injuries are too serious to move around!"

The doctor yelled at the military police in anger, while Li Xiu spoke up at this moment.

"Doctor, Miss Nurse, I have to go to court-martial no matter what, it's a matter of life, and more importantly, it's a matter of my dignity and that of my brothers from the Third Battalion!"

At this moment, in the eyes of outsiders, although Second Lieutenant Jones's face was pale, his eyes shone with uncompromising determination, which made people unable to say words of consolation.

"you"

The warrant officer couldn't help feeling a little shaken. Before he came, he looked down on the rumored Second Lieutenant Jones, but now, this is not like a criminal officer who escaped from the battle with a bad temperament and was shot black by the soldiers.

"Warrant Officer, let's go!"

After Li Xiu finished speaking, he gritted his teeth and walked to the stretcher. The doctor and nurse quickly stepped forward to help him.

"I'll help you!" "Be careful!"

The doctor and the little nurse knew how bad the second lieutenant's physical condition was with the combination of pain and illness, and it was unlikely that he could stand up alone. She was really shocked by this scene just now.

The two military police also cooperated subconsciously, allowing Li Xiu to lie down on the stretcher in a suitable posture.

"It's messy, it's too messy, if you have to go, then I'll go too, I don't want you to die halfway!"

The doctor knew about what the court-martial had accused yesterday. At this moment, he was also infected by the will of Second Lieutenant Jones, so he packed his medicine box and followed him.

"Thank you!"

Li Xiu did not refuse the help at the moment, the pain made him breathe quickly and cautiously, but all the people present were in awe.

If the nurse and the doctor did not help, the warrant officer even wanted to help each other personally, but secretly regretted his previous actions. As a military policeman, he usually does not directly participate in the war, but he has always admired the heroes and martyrs the most in his heart, so he heard about Mulan's crime before. I feel more and more disgusted with him. Although there is no evidence at this moment, I vaguely feel that the accusation may be wrong.

"Second Lieutenant Jonest, you are a worthy soldier! Let's go. If you need anything else, feel free to mention it."

"Need not!"

Li Xiu didn't even look at the warrant officer, and decisively rejected his proposal. The latter nodded towards the two military police.

"Stand up!"

In order to make the stretcher more stable, they did not move very fast.

The little nurse was almost next to the stretcher. She listened to the soldiers of the [-]rd Battalion about how tenacious they were and how heroic the second lieutenant was. She used to think that it was more bragging, but today she seemed to really feel it. She knew that the second lieutenant might really be true. Be a hero!
Under the worries and other messy emotions, the little nurse's heartbeat couldn't help speeding up. From time to time, she would wipe the sweat for Li Xiu and ask him if he was thirsty or not.

When passing a soldier's barracks, some soldiers saw the scene of the military police carrying a stretcher, and then many soldiers came out to watch, and many people whispered.

"Who is that?" "I don't know, do you know?"

"Second lieutenant of the third battalion, is it the second lieutenant Jonest?"

"I heard that most of the three battalions died in battle."

"Where are they going?" "I don't know."

"That's the military police. I heard that there is a temporary military court in Dia City. Is he going to be tried?"

"No way!"

Although he knew that it was impossible to dawdle from the military camp to the city of Dia, when he saw the carriage, Li Xiu was still relieved.

It was a black four-wheeled carriage with two horse-drawn carriages. The door was on one side, there were pedals, and glass on both sides. There were two rows of seat cushions inside, and there was room for a stretcher, much better than expected.
