Chapter 83: The tyrant is coming [12] The violent young general
Although he is older now, has many children and grandchildren, and has not been fighting with the court for many years, his temper has become much gentler. Outsiders may just think that he is an old man with a very kind temper, and there is nothing to fear.
But everyone who knows his deeds knows that you must not anger Mr. Zhuo!
Back then, Mr. Zhuo had a more fiery and vehement temper than Mr. Zhuo does now. When he went to court, the old emperor once joked that Mr. Zhuo was often late for court. As a result, Mr. Zhuo moved a chair and sat in the court hall.
He did not eat or drink for three days and three nights! He almost scared the old emperor to death, and tried to persuade him in vain. The old emperor personally admitted his mistake in front of all the courtiers and apologized to him, and Mr. Zhuo gave up.

The Prime Minister at that time, who was also the father of the current Prime Minister Don Benkui, Don Ben Kui, advocated killing all prisoners in order to enhance the country's prestige and frighten the barbarians!
Finally, all the prisoners were temporarily shown to the public!
When the young Mr. Zhuo found out about this, he became furious. He had promised not to kill the barbarian enemies who surrendered as long as they surrendered! Moreover, in his battle report to the emperor, he had clearly stated that he would not kill prisoners of war!
He knew that the person who strongly advocated killing prisoners of war was Domoto Tsuyoshi, so he led hundreds of his soldiers to rush back from the border day and night, returned to the capital and went straight into Prime Minister Domoto's Mansion, forcing Domoto Tsuyoshi to almost die to apologize...
