As early as when the sun had just risen, Li Zhen, who had been guarding the city all night, knew that he had lost, and he had lost completely!
Looking at the dark city wall, Li Zhen had mixed feelings in his heart. He didn't know what he had done wrong, but if he lost, he lost!
So, when the city gate he had never dreamed of breaking through was opened.
However, Li Zhen had already quietly left the city with only about 300 people left, which had shattered all his dreams.
It is said in the annals of the Three Kingdoms that when a viper stings the hand, a strong man can escape it!
In the past, Li Zhen only read this sentence as a story! But when this day really came, he realized how much courage it took and how painful it would be!
One hundred thousand troops! A whole one hundred thousand troops! ??
Just like a dream, it disappeared in front of him in the blink of an eye. Such a huge gap made even a lunatic like Li Zhen feel heartbroken.
"How on earth did you lose?"
Li Zhen has asked himself this question hundreds of times!
Is it because of the fire outside Weizhou City?
Or is it because of contempt for Ning Cheng?
Or is it just that God is not treating me well?
Maybe, I was wrong from the beginning?
The more he thought about it, the more confused Li Zhen became!
He didn't believe that he was wrong, just like he didn't believe that what the old man said was right!
How can troubled times be like summer, when heroes are cutting off deer, and they should compete! If the world is stable, it is like winter coming, and everything is dormant!
In Li Zhen’s opinion, this is all bullshit!
If hibernating could lead to immortality, the tortoise would have become the master of the world long ago!
"Xiao Han! Li Shimin! Just wait! I will be back sooner or later!"
Looking back at the city in the distance indifferently, Li Zhen clenched his fists little by little until his nails
It pierced into the flesh, and blood flowed down the fingers.
"Master, are you feeling better?"
Li Shi, who was accompanying him, turned pale. Seeing that Li Zhen seemed to be in something wrong, he asked worriedly.
"I'm fine!" Awakened by Li Shi's words, Li Zhen finally released his bloody fist, frowned and looked at Li Shi and said, "You took the antidote pill, why are you still like this?"
"I, I'm almost healed too!"
Li Shi did not dare to say that he had eaten too much and was too poisoned, so taking the antidote pill was of little use, so he could only vaguely say, "Where should we go next?"
"Where to go?" Upon hearing this, Li Zhen's eyes suddenly became confused.
Yes, where should he go next? After returning from a great defeat, is there still a place for him to stay in the world?
Thinking of this, Li Zhen looked around lonely until his eyes were fixed on the north, then he took a deep breath and said, "Let's go to the north!"
Ningcheng New Town!
As the door opened, Liu Hongji, who was covered in armor and looked like an ancient ferocious beast, took the lead and led Gouzi and others to rush out!
However, what greeted them was not the fierce resistance as imagined, but countless weak pleas for mercy!
"Don't kill us!"
"We surrender!"
"I don't dare anymore..."
Facing the dying crowd, Liu Hongji and others ran back and forth several times, not to mention firearms, not even an arrow was fired!
After being hungry for so long, I took the laxative prepared by the unscrupulous pair of masters and disciples! Those rebels can't even stand up now, so what are they using to resist?
then,
After he was sure that these people were no longer a threat to him, Liu Hongji, who suddenly felt bored, reluctantly gave the code that had been discussed long ago to the city.
"Folks! Come on!"
"Kill these beasts!"
"Don't let them go!"
And as the code was played, countless Ningcheng people who had been waiting behind the gate gritted their teeth and rushed out of the city gate with red eyes! .??.??
After these people rushed out of the city in a swarm, they saw the rebels lying on the ground. Without saying a word, they rushed up and beat them up!
After the beating, he was tied up with a rope and dragged aside like a dead dog, waiting for the next beating!
"Hey, hit him gently, don't really beat him to death!"
In the midst of this chaos, the fat county magistrate covered his nose and walked carefully in the new city, while not forgetting to tell the red-eyed people to be gentle!
According to what the Marquis said, as much as these people destroyed their things, they would have to do as much work to pay off their debts! If they were really beaten to death, who would do the work for them?
"Huh, beat them to death? That won't give them any advantage!"
Next to them, the people of Ningcheng heard the county magistrate's words and immediately spat viciously at the bruised and swollen rebels on the ground.
"Lord County Lord, look at it, my house has been treated as a cesspool by them! If they don't lick it clean for me, and if I don't beat it up, their faces will bloom, and they won't know why the flowers are so red!"
"That's right! The wheat outside my city has just eared, and it was all ruined by these animals!"
"And me! I was on the top of the city yesterday and they almost shot me out of my eyes!"
One word stirs up a thousand waves!
In an instant, countless angry shouts and curses rang out next to the fat county magistrate, followed by countless screams and muffled screams.
snort.
The people of Ningcheng were so angry that they punched and kicked these villains again! And this time, they were even harder than before!
The rebels, who were in pain, held their heads and dodged while cursing the damn fat man in their hearts, "Why don't you talk? No one sold you like a pig?"
The work of cleaning the battlefield lasted for three days.
During these three days, the rebels received no less than ten beatings almost every day!
And what's even more miserable is that what they are provided with every day is only a little visible gruel.
There was no way, Xiao Han didn't have that much antidote for them, so he could only wait for the effect of the medicine on them to wear off naturally.
During this period, even if you feed them dry food, it will be a waste!
On the contrary, the more they eat, the more they poop, and the more they clean. It would be better to go hungry as a punishment for them.
Of course, being beaten and starved are only the most basic punishments for the rebels in the city.
When the rebels were gathered and registered, some officers who served as rebels were picked out by Liu Hongji and others, taken in front of others, and had their heads chopped off with a knife!
In addition, those who have killed people in Weizhou City cannot be kept either!
After all, if you want these people to work like sheep and atone for their sins, you can't have such a thing as a leader! Otherwise, if these tens of thousands of people riot again, it will not be easy to suppress them!
So, over the past three days, these tens of thousands of rebels were beaten, starved, and watched their former comrades beheaded. They were mentally tortured to the point where they lost all their temper!
After the effect of the medicine wore off, I gave them a few mouthfuls of thick porridge, and then, under the whip, they obediently began to clean the battlefield, clean the city, plow the fields they had trampled on, and replant new grain seeds.
