Chapter 66: Hidden Dragon Emerges from the Abyss (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

The pawns on the city wall took out the bloody head from the box and hung it from the city wall with a rope.

Li Qi widened his eyes and looked at the objects hanging on the wall with horror!

Until he saw a huge human head that had just been hung in the middle of the city wall, he was even more shocked! !
That is! !
Zhao Hu!!
Zhao Hu was killed!!

How can it be!

Who can kill Zhao Hu?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, he suddenly remembered the lean and fierce soldier with a murderous look he saw at the gate of the county government office that day!

Thinking of the three soldiers who supported him, Li Qi instantly connected the two things together.

Could it be?

Was it Zhao Hu's brutality that provoked the mutiny, causing those fierce soldiers to kill Zhao Hu? ?

There were nearly three hundred heads hanging in rows.

This shows how fierce the fighting in the county town was yesterday.

From this perspective, all of Zhao Hu's personal soldiers were probably killed.

However, seeing the brutal Zhao Hu being executed, Li Qi's face did not look good.

Zhao Hu, the commander of the Tianxing Army, was appointed by the king himself.

No matter how cruel and unpopular Zhao Hu was, he still needed to be interrogated and considered within the Tianxing Army.

A small soldier used a mutiny to remove the brigade commander in the army. This is a taboo in the Tianxing Army or in any army!
What’s more, this killing killed more than 300 strong soldiers of the Tianxing Army!
Such behavior is no different from that of a rebel. Unless ordered by the kings, the pawns in this city will never be recognized and accepted by the Tianxing Army in the future.

They will become real first-class bandits.

Li Qi's face looked uncertain, but more worried.

There are probably more than a thousand rebel soldiers in this city, all of whom have been trained and fought by the Tianxing Army.

Now, they have obtained food, weapons and armor from the city.

If more than a thousand rebel soldiers were to follow Zhao Hu's example and cause rebellion, the harm would be extremely great!
Li Qi's thoughts were a little confused for a moment, and he didn't know how to deal with this matter.

Zhao Hu was dead, so he could go back and report to his teacher. However, he really didn't dare to leave these thousand rebellious soldiers alone!

Otherwise, the people in the surrounding counties will suffer.

Just as Li Qi's expression changed from bright to dark.

The people of Lianhua County recognized the human heads hanging on the city wall. They were the enemies who had killed their relatives, robbed their food, and driven them out of the county to become refugees.

They gnashed their teeth and picked up mud and stones from the ground.

Smash it towards the hanging head.

Pieces of stone or mud fell on the hanging heads, turning the already bloody heads even grayer and redder, swinging in the air.

Thousands of people outside the city took up whatever they could get their hands on and smashed it on people's heads in hatred, until the city walls were covered with mud.

They didn't think about anything.

All they know is that the enemies who harmed them are dead!
No matter how they died!

They are dead!

Everyone's heads were cut off.

This allowed them to completely vent the hatred that had been suppressed in their hearts over the past few days.

Many people, as they were pounding, had tears as big as beans bursting out of their eyes.

Some women and elderly people even began to sit on the ground, pounding their chests and sobbing.

They shouted the nicknames of their children, husbands, and wives. They had been suppressed for too long these days.

The enemy is in that city, but they still have reasons to live and people to take care of, so they dare not rush to avenge their loved ones at all costs.

Living outside this city wall.

But every night, there would be people who were half asleep and would wake up shouting "Kill, kill, kill!"

Many more people, missing their deceased loved ones, cannot sleep for even an hour a day.

Sometimes, I could only fall asleep by staring blankly at the small mounds where the dead were buried and lying on them.

Thousands of people, with tears in their eyes, were either patting each other on the shoulders to comfort each other or crying loudly together. The entire county town was filled with the sound of grief.

Li Qi's eyes also turned red as he looked at the people who were crying loudly.

He stopped thinking about the rebellion of the pawns in the city and sighed.

Yes, no matter what the motives and character of the pawns in the city are, they may bring disaster to the entire Zhiyuan Prefecture.

Those are things that happened later and haven't happened yet.

Just because the other party helped avenge tens of thousands of people here, he shouldn't make any rash guesses in advance.

A few "squeak" sounds.

The city wall, which was covered with wooden boards and was somewhat dilapidated, was opened.

Several soldiers who were injured but looked energetic came out from inside and shouted to the people outside the city gate:
"Dear fellow countrymen and women of Lianhua County, the murderers who murdered your relatives, Zhao Hu and others, have all been killed by Lu Lushuai.

These heads were what the brigade commander ordered me and my subordinates to hang on the city gate for three days and three nights to ease the hatred of our fellow villagers for their deceased relatives.

Lu Lushuai was kind-hearted and had issued an order that all the villagers outside the city could return to Lianhua County, return to their homes, return to their fields, continue farming, and continue living!

The commander of the brigade has issued a strict order that no one in the brigade should disturb the villagers. The villagers are also requested to return to the city and plant their fields without worry! ! "

As soon as the pawn spoke.

There was an uproar among the people who had become refugees, and then many of them stood up with ecstasy on their faces and walked towards the wide-open city gate.

Although they were not quite sure what the current situation was, since the people in the city had said that they could return to their homes, they would definitely go.

Hometown and land are their roots and the basis of their survival. If they can go back, how can they not go back?

Even though some people were still worried about whether it was a trap, when they looked up and saw the ferocious human heads hanging, their worries were dispelled.

There is no reason to lie to the people in the city, and there is no need to lie to them. They have nothing to lose.

The other party will never cheat them at the cost of these three hundred heads just because they are useless people!
Besides, now that the enemy is dead and revenge has been taken, it would be better to let the person I care about stay outside first, and they can go inside to take a look!
Therefore, almost half of the people rushed towards the city gate.

Then, the pawn shouted again:
"At noon, the commander-in-chief will personally supervise the execution of two hundred thieves who have harmed the people at the gate of the county government office. Fellow villagers, please come and watch!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Qi, who was still hesitating, instantly raised his head, his eyes sparkling with brilliance, staring intently at the direction of the county government office inside the city gate!
Then he laughed three times:

"it is good!

it is good! !

good!!!".

Without any more hesitation, he strode through the city gate and headed towards the city.

There was no more gloom on his face, but instead a look of joy and happiness.

Hidden dragon emerges from the abyss, congratulations!!
