Chapter 86: Murder and Punishment Lead to Rebellion II
Shi Jin originally thought it was Chen Da, or better yet, Zhu Wu or Yang Chun brought him into the city in some way to deliver some information to him. But now he heard that it was Wu Sangou who asked someone to deliver it.
He was surprised. The first thing Shi Jin thought of was whether Wu Sangou was playing another trick or had some ulterior motives.
When Shi Jin was about to open the letter, he looked at those crooked big Chinese characters and was speechless on the spot. Seeing Shi Jin's appearance, Shi Qian also came to Shi Jin to read the letter.
At first glance, the words written by Wu Sangou are really not flattering. They are as ugly as they are, and as abstract as they are. I guess these words were used by Chen Da and the others just a while ago when they were selling pork.
The writing style of accounting is designed to be clear to you and not understandable to others.
"Brother, what did he write?" Shi Qian was also aroused by this boy's letter and was curious. He couldn't help but ask Shi Jin looking at those extremely ugly words.
"Loyalty and righteousness fill the universe, and the liver and gallbladder illuminate the sun and the moon..." Shi Jin read out word by word, but before he finished reading, Shi Qian interrupted him.
I saw Shi Qian looking at the more than 100 people fleeing under the city, pointing his hand directly at Wu Sangou's back, and said angrily: "This is what he calls 'Loyalty and righteousness fill the universe, and the liver and gallbladder illuminate the sun and the moon.'"
?" As he spoke, Shi Qian hurriedly drew his bow and loaded the arrow, saying anxiously: "This bastard is playing tricks and using this letter to confuse my brother so that he can safely run to Supervisor Meng and surrender to the enemy! Brother
Watch me shoot this bastard who is pretending to be loyal and righteous." After that, Shi Qian narrowed his eyes and took a careful look at Wu Sangou's back.
Just when Shi Qian once again wanted to let go and let go, dozens of brothers from Shaohua Mountain came behind him. They all knelt down. Shi Qian didn't need Shi Jin to explain this time. He knew what this meant.
Begging for mercy. Shi Jin was surprised when he looked at it. Under such a situation, Shi Qian's analysis was by no means unreasonable. People's hearts are unpredictable, especially at this time of external and internal troubles. Anything can happen and anything can happen.
happened, which forced Shi Jin to be more cautious.
Looking at these brothers kneeling in front of him, Shi Jin felt a little soft-hearted. Although he was highly praised by everyone and now sits on the top spot in Shaohua Mountain, compared to Wu Sangou, Shi Jin had one less advantage.
That's qualifications. Could these people kneeling in front of him be Wu Sangou's old subordinates, or could they have deliberately come up to hold him back for the sake of Wu Sangou's safety at the moment?
If this is the case, how many Wu Sangou people are on the city now? Will Wu Sangou launch a larger-scale rebellion outside the city in the future? Is it really necessary to carry the seriously injured Chen Da up again?
Is the city coming? Shi Jin's mind was spinning very quickly, and he thought a lot in just a moment. He found that without a group of soldiers that he personally trained, not only would he be helpless in commanding operations and restraining the troops, but he would also be unable to do anything no matter what.
There are still consequences, but we can't solve them now. We can only think about it when we have the opportunity to go back to the mountain in the future.
At this moment, Shi Qian glanced at the people kneeling behind him, and when he turned back to aim at Wu Sangou, he found that Wu Sangou had already run out of the range of the bow and arrow. He reluctantly let go of the bowstring and aimed at Wu Sangou.
The vest was an arrow. Sure enough, after being dragged down by a group of people here, Wu Sangou had successfully run out of the shooting range of the city. Shi Qian watched the life-threatening arrow go straight.
It pierced into the soil, and Wu Sangou walked away unharmed. He threw the longbow away and said angrily: "That's good, let this bastard escape." After that, he glared at the young man kneeling in front of him.
The people of Huashan.
Although Shi Qian had an angry look on his face, Shi Jin did not feel angry about it. He looked at these copycat brothers who came to plead for mercy. Not only did they look like they were about to die, but they all knelt here without saying a word. But
Shi Jin, who was very attentive, saw something. Just when Shi Qian said angrily that Wu Sangou had successfully escaped, everyone's expressions not only lacked the slightest joy, but also added a bit of sadness. In such expressions,
What kind of ulterior secrets does it contain? Shi Jin wanted to ask, but at this moment he also fell silent. If these brothers wanted to teach Shi Jin to know, they would have told him even if he didn't ask, but if they didn't tell Shi Jin, it would count as Shi Jin's.
Even under severe torture, they could not utter a single word.
But just when Shi Jin couldn't think of a clue about this, the sound of closing the city gates creaked again under the city. With a muffled bang, the two city gates closed together again, tightly.
Then there was the sound of the huge door latch that Shi Jin was familiar with. The closing of the city gate made Shi Jin feel 30% energetic and 70% fighting spirit in vain, while his own cold heart had been hanging.
, finally landed in the real place, began to feel warm, and had beating energy.
Shi Jin originally thought that Chen Da was not on the city, and the soldiers guarding the city were all brought by him and Wu Sangou from the mountain. If Wu Sangou instigated a rebellion, it would inevitably cause an unstoppable torrent of flight. In Shi Jin's heart,
In fact, we have made the worst plan, that is, when the city is deserted, the officers and soldiers will take the opportunity to enter the city. But now, although Wu Sangou surrendered to the enemy, he only took away a hundred or ten people, which did not count against the defense of the city.
What a big loss. The vast majority of brothers withstood Inspector Meng's temptation and were not instigated by Wu Sangou to rebel. This true loyalty from top to bottom is the most solid pillar in Shi Jin's heart.
Shi Jin swept away the gloom on his face just now, and the unyielding and invincible momentum returned to him again, just like the soup in the giant pots under the city, boiling with hot blood, swimming around his limbs.
Among the corpses.
At this moment, Inspector Meng, who was under the city, looked up to the sky and smiled, and said loudly and sinisterly: "Are these people the only ones who think so openly? No rush - no rush - I'll wait for an hour. If you don't come down to share, then you will have to reward me in the end.
Subordinates, when they have eaten and drank enough, your city will be destroyed!" Then Supervisor Meng waved to Wu Sangou's group, pointed to the big pot in front of him and said: "Know
Those who are in charge of affairs are heroes, and I, Meng Sen, will never treat such a hero badly. Come here! Bring the wine. You guys will eat meat with big mouthfuls and drink from big bowls!" After that, Supervisor Meng turned his eyes again and looked at the people in the city.
One glance at everyone.
After Supervisor Meng said this, in a moment, officers and soldiers brought dozens of jars of wine from behind. Several officers and soldiers put the jars of wine in front of Wu Sangou and others, and Wu Sangou said without any courtesy at all.
He grabbed it, pulled open the mud seal with one hand, and drank heavily. After drinking half the jar in one breath, he took the big basin of meat from the officers and soldiers, and started tearing it apart, chewing and swallowing it with the others.
