Upon hearing this, the expressions of the soldiers suddenly changed.
He looked at Zhao Xiaole with disbelief.
This person is actually an adult?
The people in the tavern also exclaimed and looked over in shock.
The tavern owner's eyes widened even more, and his head exploded with a buzzing sound.
It turned out that he had heard correctly just now, and the person he was chatting with was actually an adult from the imperial court!
He reacted suddenly, crawled over quickly, and kept kowtowing to Zhao Xiaole: "Sir, please make the decision for us!"
Zhao Xiaole walked over and helped him up, looked at him seriously and said, "Don't worry, I am here to make decisions for you!"
Upon hearing this, the people in the tavern all became excited, looking forward to how Zhao Xiaole would deal with these soldiers.
The drunken soldier was a little sober at this time, panicked, and shouted: "We are from the Fuyuan Army. Even if you are from the government, you have no right to deal with us!"
In Jingyang, civil servants and generals were actually managed separately.
For example, in local areas, civil servants manage people's livelihood and generals manage the army.
It stands to reason that the government is really not qualified to convict soldiers.
But in this era, everything is based on power.
If this civil servant is strong enough, he can still intervene in the affairs of the army.
Besides, Zhao Xiaole is their upright immediate boss!
Therefore, Zhao Xiaole ignored his threat and snorted coldly: "Kill to pay for life and debt to pay for money. This is the only right thing to do!"
"You rely on how much force you have to fight bravely. You run rampant in the countryside and prey on the people. Now you treat human lives as nothing!"
"You are such a villain, how can I tolerate you?!"
Zhao Xiaole's eyes were cold and he said: "Now I will sentence you to be executed immediately according to the laws of this dynasty!"
Hearing Zhao Xiaole's words, the drunken soldier turned pale and shouted in panic, "No, no! I was wrong, don't kill me, I didn't mean it just now! I..."
However, Xie Junhao had long been murderous and wanted to cut this man into pieces with a thousand knives!
Who can achieve the position of general who is a soft-hearted person?
The reason why he was able to manage the city defense camp to the letter was not only because he shared the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, but also because he did not compromise on executing military orders!
Now after hearing Zhao Xiaole's order, he immediately pulled out the sword he carried with him and chopped off the drunken soldier's head without hesitation.
There was a "pop" sound, and blood spattered everywhere, directly onto the drunken soldier's companions.
They trembled all over and froze on the spot.
A pattering sound came from their trouser legs.
The fishy smell came and these people were scared to death!
There was also a scream in the tavern, and many people were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground, their bodies shaking like chaff.
It's not like they've never seen murder before, it's just that they've never seen anything so exciting.
Killing right in front of you, and the blood of the dead is more or less sprayed on your body...
Zhao Xiaole watched all this with a blank expression, without any disturbance in his heart.
Places like the military are inherently bloody and violent places.
If there is no strong means to completely suppress this group of people, I am afraid that these people will not be afraid of themselves at all, and they will even obey the orders they give!
So he looked at the group of soldiers coldly and shouted: "How many of you still know your crime?!"
Those few people suddenly trembled, fell to their knees on the ground with a "plop", and trembled: "The villain knows his crime!"
Zhao Xiaole snorted coldly and turned to look at the people in the tavern, "Do you know if these people have done any evil things such as murder, arson, rape, and robbery?"
The faces of the people were full of fear.
They are used to being bullied by this group of people. How dare they report this group of people?
However, looking at Zhao Xiaole with a cold face, they felt confident in their hearts for no reason, and their backs straightened a lot.
"I know!"
Immediately, a young man stood up, pointed at one of the people and said, "I saw him bullying Widow Song's daughter, and then the next day Widow Song's daughter jumped into the well and committed suicide. Widow Song was also completely crazy!"
Hearing this, the person being accused immediately panicked and shouted, "Don't talk nonsense. When did I bully Widow Song's daughter? I don't even know her!"
"That's you!"
A lame man with some inconvenience in his legs and feet slowly walked out, gritted his teeth and looked at the soldier and said, "You were the one who snatched away Widow Song's daughter that day. I went to stop her, but you broke my leg!"
"That's right! I was at the scene that day and I saw it too!"
Many angry people stood up and identified the soldier.
The latter's face had completely lost all color, and he just kept denying: "It's not me! That's not me, you are talking nonsense!"
Xie Junhao looked at Zhao Xiaole, who just said one word coldly, "Kill!"
"puff!"
The head fell to the ground instantly.
There was still more or less fear on everyone's faces, but more importantly, they were filled with the joy of having their great revenge avenged!
Zhao Xiaole's eyes fell on the next soldier again. There was a hint of ferocity on that man's dull face. He plunged into Zhao Xiaole's arms and at the same time pulled out the knife from his waist with his right hand.
However, before he could get close to Zhao Xiaole, the knife in Xie Junhao's hand had already been swung out and cut off the man's waist directly!
There was a lot of paste in front of Zhao Xiaole.
There was an ear-piercing sound of vomiting in the tavern.
This scene in front of me is really disgusting!
Zhao Xiaole cast his eyes on the last person. At this time, his courage had long been frightened away by the tragic situation of the previous people, and he could only kneel on the ground and cry loudly.
"I...I didn't kill anyone, I was just forced to be with them. I beg you, sir, to spare this little guy's life!"
He banged his head loudly.
When Zhao Xiaole saw that his expression was indeed filled with fear of death, unlike the previous ones, there was a trace of nervousness in his fear, fear that the secret in his heart would be known.
Zhao Xiaole looked at the people.
The pale faces of the group of people were full of hatred, and the eyes they looked at the soldier on the ground were very complicated.
They know.
Now as long as they use their words to accuse this person of some outrageous crime, he will die.
But in that case, what is the difference between them and this group of people?
So in the end, there was a heavy sigh from the crowd, and one by one said: "He is right, this person did not do any big evil, he just helped these people as thugs."
"That's right!"
"I've never seen him do anything evil!"
Zhao Xiaole nodded, but his tone was still cold: "Even so, you are still an accomplice of that group of people!"
"I'm going to sentence you to go to the court to collect twenty pieces of board on your own. Are you convinced?!"
This punishment is simply not worth mentioning when it comes to beheading.
The soldier suddenly burst into tears of joy, and cried bitterly with excitement: "The villain is willing to accept the punishment!"
