Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a creaking sound. Li Chengzhi took a look and saw that the city gate about ten feet away from the phalanx had opened.
A few horses came out first, and most of the riders were wearing dark clothes. You could tell they were officials at a glance.
Guo Ya squinted his eyes and said instinctively: "It's Magistrate Suo, Prime Minister Xu and Lieutenant Jiang..."
Li Chengzhi was ecstatic: Suo Siwen actually left the city?
Looking at the cavalry heading towards the military formation, and a group of county soldiers following behind, Li Chengzhi's thoughts began to change rapidly, and his eyes also turned rapidly.
As soon as he had murderous intentions, Suo Siwen actually took the initiative to hand over the knife handle?
And if the operation is done well, there will not even be any trouble...
In just two or three breaths, he made a decision, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
"Li Feng!" he growled.
"Servant is here!"
"Hurry up and make arrangements..."
Li Chengzhi's voice became lower and lower.
……
When several county officials rushed to about three or four feet away from the military formation, an officer on horseback suddenly ran out and raised his fist towards them: "Are you the county officials?"
Suo Siwen stopped his horse and nodded reservedly: "I am going to the county magistrate Suo Siwen!"
"It's the county king? How rude..." Li Feng said and bowed again, "My coach is leading the Chinese army to suppress the battle. After these thieves are dealt with, he will come to apologize to you..."
It's indeed a bit rude. How can you say that you are an official, and the leader of the Li family is so proud that he doesn't even come out to greet him?
Xu County Cheng became a little unhappy immediately and asked coldly: "It's just suppression, why does your family leader need to take action?"
Li Feng seemed to be even more humble, and his waist almost bent to ninety degrees: "I would like to ask Shangguan to take care of me. These half of the brigade, whether they are generals or soldiers, are all newcomers who suddenly formed an army. Most of them have not experienced battles and have not yet been exposed to war."
I have seen blood, and if there is no coach in charge, I would not dare to be ruthless..."
Still a newcomer?
Which company has such talented newcomers and such a neat lineup?
Are you fucking fooling around?
Xu County Cheng didn't understand, and was about to sneer when he suddenly realized something was wrong.
Be cruel?
What does the Li family want to do?
Suo Siwen and Jiang Rang on one side also had this idea at the same time. Just as Suo Siwen was about to ask, he suddenly heard several howls coming from the formation.
Several people were shocked at the same time and stood up with stirrups.
They saw a group of soldiers, fighting hard to kill in the formation. There was a formation wall blocking them, so they couldn't see clearly who they were killing, but they saw bloody arrows flying wildly, and heads flying across the field.
Jiang Rang was shocked in his heart: Even if he wanted to kill, he should stop it completely and kill them in batches separately?
These two thousand people are strong... What if there is an uprising and the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry?
Before I even thought about it, I saw a commotion in the formation, as if there were rebel soldiers resisting, and heard a sound of "help, help, help... whoosh whoosh whoosh...", which sounded like archers shooting arrows.
Looking further inside, there was more blood and the screams were louder.
Suo Siwen's expression froze: This Li family is actually killing prisoners?
Before they left the city, they could see clearly on the city wall that all the women had been driven out of the battle, and now all the women left inside were strong men...
Not to mention that most of them were civilians who were robbed and held hostage by bandits in the past two or three days. Even if they were all rebels, they should not be killed at once.
Give him some warning, give him a little sweetness, let him perform meritorious deeds, and give him a little training, and then he can be dragged out to fight and quell the chaos.
Even if the chaos is not quelled, can't it be used to defend the city?
As for how to convict in the end, whether to kill or not, should we wait until the civil unrest is completely suppressed before settling the scores later?
"Stop..." Suo Siwen shouted sharply and urged his horse forward, as if he was about to charge into battle.
As soon as Li Feng pulled the reins, the horse stopped him, with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, Mr. Suo County, it will be over in just a moment and a half... If you stop now, the rebels will definitely rebound and rush away."
Military formation is also possible..."
Fart... If you wait any longer, you'll all be dead...
Suo Siwen angrily scolded: "Sixty-seven out of ten people in this formation are good people. Where do you, the Li family, have the guts to kill you when you ask?"
"The county gentleman is joking!" Li Feng clasped his fists again, "We have already sent the good people out of the formation, and those trapped in the formation now are naturally thieves..."
Are those good people? Are they all women?
No, this officer said "end"...
The Li family actually wants to kill all these people?
Suo Siwen was stunned and looked at Li Feng in disbelief. Four words suddenly appeared in his mind: Killing good people and taking credit?
No wonder they were so impatient. They thought they were here to take credit?
Even these soldiers in your family have been regarded as something in my pocket. Why do I need to rob them? It won’t all be my own credit.
Not to mention Suo Siwen, even Jiang Rang, who knew some of the inside story, had the same idea.
On the one hand, the Li family is afraid of taking credit, but the greater possibility is that Li Chengzhi is angry at Suo Siwen for plotting against him, but he does not dare to take revenge openly, so he can only do it secretly.
After killing these strong people, the Li family's soldiers withdrew again. Naturally, the county town was still undefended and was in danger...
Suo Siwen's mind changed rapidly.
Is this a block or not?
If you stop me, you may fall out, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to go to the city to coax you again.
But if they don't stop them, they will watch nearly 2,000 civilians being killed. Even if they subdue the 300 soldiers of the Li family, Chao Na County will still be in danger.
Moreover, there are so many defenders watching in the city. He has always shown his kindness and love for the people. If he is indifferent, he will inevitably be said to be hypocritical, or he will be afraid of being strong and dare not say anything...
Furthermore, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they will fall out, or that they won’t be coaxed into entering the city.
Don’t you just want credit?
Here you go!
The grain, silk and property seized from the thieves will also be given to you.
If it's not enough, just like when you coaxed Li Bai, what's the matter if the county's grain and silk are even more even for you?
You have to take it with your life...
The two powers harm each other, whichever is the lesser. Suo Siwen made a decision in an instant and roared: "You are so bold..."
Afraid of falling out, he did not dare to say something like "killing a good person and risking merit". He just waved his hand and shouted to the county army behind him, "Come away with me..."
As he said that, he seemed to be leading the charge towards the military formation.
"County Lord, you can't..." Jiang Rang's expression changed, and he clamped his horse's belly, trying to stop Suo Siwen.
The fighting spirit in the formation at this time is exactly when the rebels are most anxious. If they really want to break away from the military formation, the rebels will definitely take advantage of the momentum to counterattack.
Shouldn't the most correct approach at this time be to find Li Chengzhi as soon as possible and ask him to stop?
Jiang Rang's horse just took a step forward, but unexpectedly, Suo Siwen raised his whip and whipped him.
It didn't hit Jiang Rang, but just slapped his horse's head. The horse was startled and swerved suddenly, almost throwing Jiang Rang off.
Jiang Rang finally controlled the horse, and then heard Suo Siwen asking him sternly: "Lieutenant Jiang, others don't know, and you don't know, are the people trapped in this formation thieves or civilians? If you don't save me, I, Suo Siwen, have a conscience.
Uneasy..."
As he spoke, he actually urged the horse to charge forward.
Even though the distance was a bit short, the horse didn't even start to trot when it hit the buttocks of the soldiers on the last level.
The county soldiers behind him had no choice but to push up.
