Chapter 69: Worthy (Please read)
"Boom~!"

"Boom~!"

"Boom~!"

As the executioners' swords fell one after another.

At the gate of the county government office, all the kneeling guards and soldiers, whether they had numb expressions or begged for mercy, were executed.

The headless corpse fell to the ground, the head rolled to the ground, and the blood dyed the entire execution ground red.

The onlookers watched in anger as the head of their kneeling enemy was chopped off. Their great revenge was achieved, and they all fell to their knees with a thump.

He bowed down to the new brigade commander who was sitting on the platform, and shouted:
"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, for killing the evil bandit Zhao Hu! And redressing our injustice!!"

"Thank you, Marshal, for standing up for us common people! Allow us to return home!"

"The great Lord Qingtian is benevolent and righteous! The great Lord Brigade Commander is benevolent and righteous!!"

"Your Excellency is benevolent! Benevolent!!"

Most of the common people are illiterate and do not know how to express praise.

But the thousands of people watching here all knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the skinny commander of the Tianxing Army on the platform, making their heads bang loudly.

He was the one who avenged them and gave them a home again so they could have a meal.

In their eyes, this is like the living Lord of Heaven!

Even the great Lord of Heaven is not as good as this brigade commander!
They called so many county magistrates the great and upright officials, but which one of them didn't think about exploiting them all day long?

When they encountered the attack of these bandits, they ignored the people in the county and ran for their lives.

However, this brigade commander, although living in the bandit camp, sympathized with the suffering of the people, killed the evil bandits, gave them justice, and returned their houses and fields.

As long as such a true judge is alive, it would be worth it even if they get their heads smashed to pieces!
At this time, Li Qi, who had mixed into the group of civilians, looked with burning eyes at the fierce soldier on the platform whom he had met here before.

He also clasped his hands, bent down, and bowed deeply towards the high platform!
The other party can afford this bow!
No matter what purpose the other party had in doing this to rally the people's hearts, this person, by killing Zhao Hu, eliminated the harm to the people and saved the people of Zhiyuan Prefecture from the pain of losing their loved ones and being displaced.

This noble act of saving the people is worthy of his respect no matter what!
A wealthy mansion.

In the living room.

Lu Yuan stuffed a deep-fried chicken drumstick into his mouth, chewing the grease and burnt aroma while looking at the dark blue panel in front of him.

[Host: Lu Yuan]

[Superpowers: Immortality/Infinite Strength]

【Attributes:
Strength: 410】

410 kilograms of force.

Just now he was sitting on the high platform, watching the people below kneeling down to worship him in gratitude, without saying a word.

It's not that he was being aloof on purpose, but he really didn't want to talk.

Not long after he sat on the platform, his "infinite strength" superpower took effect.

It seemed that it was aware of its fullness and used this superpower to empty its stomach continuously. Its stomach, which was originally full, became empty again.

He just felt that he could still eat twenty big bowls!

However, although his stomach was emptied, it brought him greater changes.

Waves of warm current flowed through his limbs and bones, and he felt that his muscles seemed to be tighter and more swollen.

Even his bones felt numb and itchy, as if they wanted to stretch and become thicker.

These changes are even visible to the naked eye.

His skinny face seemed to have more vitality.

Lu Yuan looked at the dark blue panel in front of him, thinking about how to get more and more food steadily. The food in the warehouse was enough for the entire brigade to consume for seven days at most.

Without food, the army cannot be maintained, and we cannot rely on the army to obtain a continuous source of food.

For now, it seems that all we can do is wait.

After his reputation spreads, and the wealthy families who fled Lianhua County confirm that there will be no danger in returning, he will return here and perhaps get some food from them.

While he was thinking about it, a soldier walked in from outside the yard, bowing.

"Report! Sir, there is a man named Li Qi outside, claiming to be the counselor of the Tianxing Army, and he wants to see you."

When Lu Yuan heard the name Li Qi, his thoughts were interrupted.

This person was the one who was standing outside the county government office and wanted to see Zhao Hu. I don’t know what his relationship with Zhao Hu is.

Could it be that Zhao Hu died, or a brigade commander of the Tianxing Army died, and he, as a counselor, wanted to come and avenge the other party?
kindness.
Probably not.

His subordinates have already reported to him what this man did.

These days, outside the county town, porridge is provided to the people outside the city every day.

This is equivalent to slapping Zhao Hu in the face.

It is said that the porridge was transported from the nearest county town.

This man is from the Tianxing Army. He was able to get food from the county town in Youzhou, a land controlled by the imperial court. He is really capable.

Perhaps, I could meet him and get some unexpected benefits.

Thinking of this, he said to the soldier who bowed:
"Let him in."

After the soldier left, not long after, Li Qi, dressed in a white shirt, walked in from outside the yard.

After entering the living room, he bowed and said:
"Lu Lushuai."

Lu Yuan looked at the man who was bending over.

Although I had seen this person at the gate of the county government office before, my attention was not on him at the time, so I didn't see him clearly.

Now, upon closer inspection, this Li Qi, who claimed to be the counselor of the Tianxing Army, seemed to be quite young, probably no more than 28 years old.

The white shirt he was wearing was a little muddy, but from his figure and demeanor, it was clear that he was a scholar.

No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a soldier.

Seeing the other party's great courtesy, Lu Yuan nodded calmly and said:

"Counselor Li, Zhao Hu is the commander of the Tianxing Army Brigade, and you are the counselor of the Tianxing Army. I killed Zhao Hu, committed treason, and staged a mutiny to seize power. It would be fine if you didn't ask me to punish me, but why did you recognize my position as the brigade commander?"

In any army, it is a taboo for a small soldier to rebel and seize power.

This Li Qi, if he was called by his name, he wouldn't be surprised at all.

However, he didn't expect that the other party would not only be respectful when he came in, but also call him Lu Lu Shuai like everyone else.

This made him, for a moment, confused about what the other party meant.

Li Qi bowed to the other party again, stood up straight, smiled slightly and said:

"Zhao Hu is a tyrant who allowed his men to burn, kill, rape and plunder, bringing shame to our Tianxing Army. I am here this time to stop his atrocities and bring him back to the army to answer for his crime.

But Zhao Hu has been committing crimes in the deep mountains of Youzhou for a long time. He is so unruly that I can't do anything about him.

Fortunately, General Lu took action, executed Zhao Hu and his evil soldiers, brought justice to the people, and restored the reputation of our Tianxing Army.

I can't express my gratitude enough, how dare you blame me?

Therefore, you are worthy of the position of brigade commander!"
