After all, the power of ordinary people was limited. Their violent beating only lasted for about ten seconds. The twenty-two generals who reacted pushed away the people around them and formed a circle to protect Zeng Huainan. [ | ]
"You mobs, look at my 'Collapse of Heaven Power'!"
A general stepped down hard, and there was only a muffled sound. A wave of energy spread around him, and all the people within ten meters were knocked backwards by the energy.
"You mobsters dare to fight even General Zeng. Are you really going to rebel?" The generals became angry when they saw that one of Zeng Huainan's eyes had been beaten into a panda eye.
"What nonsense, General Zeng? He sent people to rob our melons and property. If not, who would we beat him?"
"Old General Huang, when General Cheng was here, he was very good to our people. How did it become like this now? You have followed General Cheng for many years, why are you now associated with this old immortal?"
"Yeah, how many of our people have died? How can your own army kill your own people? Beat them, beat them to death here!"
Many people were so angry that they wanted to beat Zeng Huainan and others to death. When Huang Shilang heard this, he thought it was okay and immediately stood at the front and began to explain. Because Huang Shilang had followed Cheng Heizi for many years, he also had a certain reputation among the people.
prestige, so he stood up resolutely
, he said loudly: "Fellow folks, please be patient. We are here today to solve the problem for you. General Zeng did not issue any orders to kill the common people. If we find out who harmed the folks,
Then we will definitely not be lenient..."
Huang Shilang said with great effort, which finally calmed down the anger of the people a little.
"It's not him, but who is it? Thousands of our villagers died in the past few days. Just now, the villagers in front were shot to death by random arrows..."
Faced with such great public anger, even Zeng Huainan and many generals felt helpless. It was difficult to speak back, let alone fight back. Zeng Huainan wiped his face with his clothes and said with half a panda eye: "Everyone, everyone.
Bit Township
Dear, I, Zeng Huainan, did not issue an order to kill the villagers. I just heard the soldiers coming to report, so I came immediately to make the decision for the villagers. I hope everyone can be calm and calm. I will definitely give you an explanation.
"
"Folks, what Old General Zeng said is true. He brought us here just to give everyone an explanation."
Faced with such public outrage, other generals also tried their best to explain that the confrontation between the two sides was close to a stick of incense before the people made way for them again. It depends on how they seek justice for the people.
Zeng Huainan walked towards Jianping County with a sullen face and was beaten violently by the people. This was the first time in his long life. Thinking about the previous times when he went on an expedition, he was not welcomed and supported by the people. But now,
But it was the other way around, so he took a big breath in his heart. But he couldn't vent this anger to the people. He could only find out what happened and vent it on the person responsible.
When they walked outside the city gate, Zeng Huainan and others saw the dead and injured people all over the ground, and his face trembled. If those who died in front of him were Daping soldiers, no matter how many there were, he would not have any
reaction, but now it is his own people who fall in front of him.
Not only him, Huang Shilang and other generals couldn't help but shake their heads after seeing it, with excited and complicated expressions.
"Who gave this order, Lin Dayong, die for me!" Zeng Huainan was completely angry. He was so angry that he was so restrained that he also cursed. His voice was so loud that it was heard on the tower.
, many soldiers could not help but feel as cold as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
"General, why don't we go to the city first?" said a general.
"Going into the city? This general wants to stand in front of the villagers and give them an explanation!" Zeng Huainan, his face red and breathing heavily, stood in front of the city gate, looking at the dead and injured people in front of him sadly.
Soon, Lin Dayong led several of his men on horseback out of the city, and half knelt down to greet Zeng Huainan. When Zeng Huainan did not enter the city and stayed outside the city to condolences to the people, Lin Dayong had a bad feeling. At this time, he really faced Zeng Huainan.
, looking at his face that was red with anger and his eyes full of murderous intent, I was even more frightened.
"Lin Dayong, is this the person you ordered to kill?" Zeng Huainan suddenly shouted, making Lin Dayong tremble in fright.
"General, these unruly people... they..."
"Damn it, General, do I want you to explain? Just say yes or no!" Zeng Huainan kicked Lin Dayong over and shouted angrily.
"That's him. I recognize him. He also said that he would kill us all and punish the nine tribes!"
"Last time, thousands of villagers were killed on his order!"
…
Lin Dayong did not dare to answer, but the people who recognized him were excited, and many people pointed it out on the spot.
Zeng Huainan took a deep breath: "It seems that there is no need for me to ask any more questions. The murderer is you, Lin Dayong! You have followed me for many years, but you did not expect to do such a thing. The murderer will always be killed."
, not to mention you are killing your own people?"
Listening to Zeng Huainan's cold voice, Lin Dayong knew that a disaster was imminent. He knelt at Zeng Huainan's feet and cried and begged: "General, general, I knew I was wrong. I made the mistake in a moment of anger. I thought...
I have followed you for many years and have made great achievements in battle. General, please spare me this time..."
Zeng Huainan's eyes also flashed with a hint of unbearable light, but the cries of the people were still in his ears. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath and said: "Not killing you is not enough for the people to be angry!"
"Whoa!"
He raised the sword and dropped it. Lin Dayong's head fell to the ground. The blood on his neck spurted onto Zeng Huainan's face. He didn't wipe it with his hands. He turned around and faced tens of thousands of people while holding the long sword that was still dripping blood.
He said: "Fellow fellow villagers, Lin Dayong misinterpreted our military orders to generalize civilians for military use, and disturbed the villagers. He deserves to die. He actually killed the villagers, let alone live. Now he is punishing the law on the spot to set an example to others!"
"Come on, arrest everyone who participated in the shooting of the people, tie them up and kneel here, let the people do whatever they want, hang Lin Dayong's head at the city gate, and leave his body exposed for three days!" Kill Lin Dayong with your own hands, Zeng Huainan
The order was given again that all soldiers involved would not be able to escape.
Seeing that Zeng Huainan actually cut off Lin Dayong's head with a sword, the people basically believed that he was here to avenge the people, so their anger calmed down a little. Soon, two hundred archers and two thousand three hundred soldiers
After being escorted by more soldiers, they were kidnapped and lined up in five rows outside Jianping County. When the people saw this posture, they immediately became quiet.
"The scum in the army should be punished for their crimes. Shooting and hunting down civilians will deserve their death!" Zeng Huainan showed a very unbearable look in his eyes, but he still did it. He raised his sword high: "Fellows, although there are civilians
For military orders, but
It was a critical moment when the whole people resisted the enemy, rather than wantonly taking away people's property. The people kneeling here are all soldiers who have violated you. Now they are tied up and unable to move. You can do whatever you want.
Repay injustice with injustice, revenge with hatred!"
