The soldier killed someone in the street, witnessed by so many civilians, and Ye Shikai even swore to the heavens just now to severely punish the soldiers and strictly enforce military discipline to reassure the people, so... a death sentence is probably unavoidable.
Frankly, Ye Shikai really doesn't want to do this. These brothers have followed him through life and death, surviving all the way from East County, with two-thirds dying along the way. The ones left, each one weighs heavily on him.
Moreover, Ye Shikai had never personally executed his own subordinates before. Though he wasn't the executioner, he was the one giving the order.
"What do you want me to do?" Ye Shikai asked in return.
