Chapter 198: Sin

The county government has been burned into broken walls. Chen Shitang found a house without a roof and ordered people to bring a stone to sit in the middle. He asked his subordinates to take the three of them over and asked, "Where do you live?"

The three men with braids were so scared that they were out of their minds and didn't say anything. Chen Shitang was furious when he saw this. He raised his whip and threw it on a man's face. A blood mark suddenly appeared. The man covered his face and screamed in pain.

"You, tell me where you live!"

The beaten man was scared. Just as he was about to say something, the bearded man in the middle hurriedly said a few words. Chen Shitang cursed: "Damn, I don't understand what I said! Let's talk about the birds' songs and pull your skin!"

A general next to him smiled and said, "I guess he is dissuading him, afraid of being in the family."

"If you don't give me some good, I think we're all soft-boys!" Chen Shitang immediately ordered the soldiers to find the fast bamboo strips and fix them on the ground. He also asked the soldiers to take off all the clothes of the man in the middle, tied his hands and feet to pull them on the bamboo strips. The screams suddenly soared into the sky from the head without a roof, which made people frightened.

The flesh on the man's back was quickly scraped off one by one, and the flesh was full of blood and blood, and even the white bones were vaguely visible. At this time, Chen Shitang ordered it to be turned over and asked him to lie on the bamboo strips to continue dragging it. After a while, the man fainted and refused to change it. I don't know if he was dead, even if he was not dead, he would not live for a while.

The smell of blood all over the room, Chen Shitang turned his face coldly and looked at another person: "Do you want to try it?"

The man hurriedly said, "General, please spare me, I'll say..."

Chen Shitang said: "There are not many places where Gaochang people live in Langzhou. Even if you don't tell me, I can find it."

He then tied up the remaining two people and asked them to lead the way. He led the third regiment of the headquarters to leave Dahua County, but did not ask the superiors for instructions. The soldiers guarding at the city gate saw that it was his own people, and thought that they had been ordered by their superiors to go out of the city to do business, but they did not stop them.

At this time, Cheng Qianli, who was on the top of the city, saw smoke and dust rising from the north, and a cavalry headed north, leaving from Dahua City, which must be the Tang army. He turned to ask Xue Chongxun, "Duke of Wei sent them out?"

Xue Chongxun said: "Don't I always be with General Cheng? When did I give orders?"

Cheng Qianli said: "It's definitely not my subordinate, it must be a soldier in Shanzhou." He called the general who was guarding the North Gate and asked, it was indeed Chen Shitang.

Xue Chongxun thought for a moment and said in surprise: "This guy must be going to find Gaochang people to vent his anger."

Cheng Qianli said angrily: "Chen Shitang is a subordinate of Duke Wei. How did you control your subordinates?"

Xue Chongxun was unhappy, but what Cheng Qianli said made sense. Damn Chen Shitang didn't ask me for instructions and treated me as a decoration. At that moment, he sent two cavalry of the Flying Tiger Regiment to chase after him and order Chen Shitang to come back and be punished.

But the rushing camp was usually procrastinating and did not carry any baggage. The light cavalry ran away. The messenger chased them for a long time but couldn't catch up. When he caught up with them, Chen Shitang was so upright that he was reluctant to listen. He just said, "It's not far ahead. When I kill these Gaochang people, I'll kill them and kill them when I go back."

The troops arrived at a place called Sanyangyuan, and saw dozens of tents living on the grassland. Chen Shitang did not say much, and immediately commanded the cavalry to surround the herd camp. At this time, a few Gaochang people carrying weapons walked out of the fence, protecting an old man and coming out to the side.

A general shouted, "Put down the weapon."

The few people didn't listen and walked straight to this side. At this moment, there was only a "bang" sound, and an arrow hit the old man's forehead and immediately fell off the horse. The other people shouted, and pulled out the horses after a few arrows. After a while, a group of horses ran out of the middle of the tents.

Chen Tuanlian immediately ordered: "Resist the officers and soldiers and kill them without mercy! Destroy them first!"

"The last general is willing to be the striker!"

A general wearing bright light armor led the left and right second brigades to form a battle formation, divided into four rows of lances to charge up, and instantly knocked the fences into pieces of wood and bamboo and rushed in. The Tang army formed a dense formation and launched an attack with a spear of about two meters long. The herdsmen could no longer resist it, and they were almost crushed into meat paste in a short while.

Before the officers and soldiers were happy, they raised the fire with their scythes and set the fire on the tent. Suddenly, the fire on the grassland surged into the sky, smoke was shrouded in smoke, and the sheep ran around, and the dogs watching the sheep also barked "woof". The herders had to run out of the tent, and saw that the house on which they depended for their survival were burning, some women cried loudly, and some men at home were trampled into blood by the Tang cavalry, holding the body and crying bitterly, and the camp was in chaos.

Chen Shitang led his troops in and reviewed the army and said, "Don't run away if you keep the sheep in sight. Take it back and bake it for a while and eat it to improve the food." The soldiers were overjoyed and hurriedly divided their troops to drive the sheep.

Another group of soldiers drove the herdsmen and asked them to go to the open space. Some of them held their bodies and refused to leave, so they were cut by a knife. The army had nothing to do with blood. It was really a killing person without blinking.

Chen Shitang asked someone to take the two criminals and asked, "You originally had four people, which ones are from? Find them out."

Seeing that these vicious officers and soldiers were killing people without blinking, the two of them were willing to say that? Chen Shitang pointed at a woman in front of him with a horse whip and said, "Come on, chop it!"

A cavalry rushed out of her side, pulled out a horizontal knife with a "swish", and the shiny blade drew an arc in the air. A stream of blood was about to come out, and a human head rolled on the grass, very sharp, and her body swayed before falling softly to the ground.

Chen Shitang said: "I will chop off one person after a few times."

Obviously, the woman who was hacked to death was not from the criminal's house, so they both remained silent. Chen Shitang counted twice, and the knight in front of him did not need to give an order, and another knife was cut.

Seeing this, the other herdsmen squeezed in, and the ones behind him were reluctant to give in, and they kept close together to prevent them from rushing in. At this moment, an old woman said in a less neat Chinese: "I recognize them."

Perhaps the old woman felt that she was shameless to betray the tribe, so she explained: "These two unworthy people do evil things, don't let them implicate everyone anymore." Then she identified five or six old and young people.

Chen Shitang saw three old men, two young women, and a boy over ten years old. He pointed at a young woman casually with a horse whip and said, "What's her relationship with these two people?"

The old woman who identified the man said, "It's his girl."

Chen Shitang said "Ha" and seemed very interested. He looked back at the army and said, "It is impolite to come and not come back. Whoever wants her will give her a reward."

The troops were silent, no one wanted to... Most of the border troops had families and houses in the local area, and there was no pressure to kill people on orders, but it was not very pleasant to pass on such things back home.

At this time, the two officers and soldiers of the Flying Tiger Regiment who came with him said angrily: "Chen Tuanlian, Xue Langteng has just saved you from your death penalty. You can't escape the death penalty when you go back like this! You are angry and beaten the country to the enemy territory. These Gaochang people who are attached have surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. What's the point of making trouble for them?"

Chen Shitang ignored it and still wanted to do evil things. He ordered the soldiers to take a handful of awl and roast it darkly red on the fire. He poked the Gaochang man's arm. With a "scream", a stream of blue smoke rose up, and the smell scattered everywhere. The man jumped in pain, and the sky was extremely miserable.

He led his troops to surround the two criminals' families in the middle, raised his horse and whipped others all over his body. He only ordered the killing after he tortures.

This killed the whole family. His subordinates asked him if he wanted to withdraw his troops. Chen Shitang looked at the many corpses on the ground and felt aggrieved. He kept doing nothing but ordered: "Enforce all!"

After receiving the order, the troops surrounded the herdsmen, men, women, young and old, and the cavalry teams that had been slaughtered by cavalry, the bodies were moved together and piled into a small hill. Chen Shitang was blown by the cool breeze at this time, and found that the sinful things he had done were pale, so he ordered the troops to bring firewood to burn the bodies, trying to destroy the traces.

The general asked, "Can the lord spare us when he goes back?"

"It's all my orders, you're fine..." Chen Shitang said.

The general whispered: "Actually, these herdsmen are not our tribe. They will die if they die. The lord should not be punished for your death... But if you don't say hello before you go out, isn't it just that you don't have a lord in your eyes? This is the most serious. I advised you to say something before, but if you don't listen, how can you excuse me now?"

Chen Shitang said depressedly: "If I say it, can I still come out?"
