The muscles on Huangfu's face twitched, and his pupils shrank suddenly. Obviously, these words spoke to his mind. Liu Yu's voice echoed impassionedly in his ears: "General Huangfu, although I am a businessman,
, I also joined the army in my hometown back then. I remember that when I joined the army, the general said during training that after wearing this military uniform and eating this mouthful of military rations, you must know that every stitch, every meal, and every soup is for the common people.
The taxes we pay are due. We serve as soldiers. In addition to fighting for fame, the more important thing is to protect our country. The difference between a soldier and a robber is that their force should be used to protect the people, not to kill others.
Massacre and loot them, otherwise, what’s the difference between humans and animals?”
Liu Yu's voice was deafening, and every sergeant heard it clearly. Many people lowered their heads in shame. Along the way, after the Jingzhou army entered the territory of Qin, they did a lot of looting and looting. Many people followed the generals.
They went out to rob property and even kill people, but afterwards they felt uneasy about their conscience. Today, when Liu Yu reprimanded him so righteously in person, he had nothing to say, but his face turned red and he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
Liu Yu saw that Huangfu Fu and others had nothing to say. He raised his voice a little and continued: "I am a barbarian. At that time, my country was only a small country in the Western Regions. You, the Central Plains, are known as a land of etiquette.
The Han people have a thousand-year civilization. It is said that they should know the laws and pay tribute, and protect the country and the people. Why do I, a Hu, know that I must protect the people and not plunder at will, let alone kill them, but you, as soldiers of the Jin Dynasty,
, but you don’t understand this truth?”
Huan Zhen sneered and said: "Abbas, you are indeed a businessman. That mouth can tell the dead people alive. However, it is useless. This is not the boundary of the Jin Kingdom. The people here are residents of the enemy country. For many years,
They are traitors and thieves. When our heavenly army arrives, they don't come out to greet us. They just try to sneak past and continue to fight against us. What's the point of pity for these stubborn and unruly people?"
Liu Yu laughed loudly: "Master Huan, I never thought that as a descendant of the Huan family in Jingzhou, he could say such a thing! Hasn't Xingyang been the land of China since ancient times? As a Hu man outside the Great Wall, I know that this place has been a place of business since the pre-Qin Dynasty.
During the Zhou Dynasty, it was already the homeland of China. When the Chu and Han Dynasties fought, they had a long-term confrontation here. For thousands of years, this was an important town in the Central Plains. Even in the Jin Dynasty, when you controlled the whole country before the Yongjia Rebellion, this place was also
It can be regarded as your core area. Because of the rebellion of the Eight Kings of Jin State and the abandonment of the people to migrate south, the people here have nowhere to go and can only join the barbarians who occupy the Central Plains. Is this the reason why they deserve to die?"
Huan Zhen was so angry that he blushed and said in a deep voice: "Abbas, don't talk nonsense. I'm talking about the people in the city. If they don't come out to greet the king, what else are they being unruly?"
Liu Yu raised his hand high and said loudly: "Fathers and fellow villagers of Xingyang City, come out and let the soldiers from Jingzhou in Jin Dynasty see how you greeted Master Wang!"
A gong sounded from the top of the city, rising from high to low. It was Liu Zhong beating the gong, calling the people in the city. Gradually, some people began to gather at the city gate. A walking stick was stationed in Wufang.
Supporting each other with the old, weak, sick and disabled in the city, the Wang brothers carried hunting bows on their backs and supported a few old people who had the most difficulty walking, and walked out slowly, while Liu Zhong was the youngest, holding a gong in his hand, walking
In front, they were knocking while walking. Even the Huan cavalry, who killed without batting an eyelid, could not help but be moved when they saw the hundreds of old, weak, sick and disabled people in the city who had difficulty walking and looked like skeletons.
Liu Yu looked at Huangfu Fu and said seriously: "Have you seen it, General Huangfu? These are the old and young men left in Xingyang City. These are the people in Xingyang City. It's not that they don't want to welcome Master Wang, but they dare not come out. The world
Chaos, various armies, broken armies, thieves, bandits, and horse bandits come here like a revolving lantern. Every time they come, there is a wave of looting and massacre. Those who have the ability to escape have long since disappeared, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled.
Waiting to die. Today, they did not know that the officers and soldiers of the Jin Dynasty were coming. They only saw smoke and dust everywhere, so they were so frightened that they did not even dare to bury the dead bodies anymore and ran into the city. Are they also to blame for this?
?”
Huangfu Fu's eyes sparkled: "Abbas, you said you are a businessman, why do these Xingyang people believe you?"
Wu Fangzheng said excitedly: "General, although these two people are barbarians, they are good people. We have been trapped here for several months, without food or water, and can only wait to die. After they came,
, asked us all to burn and bury the dead outside the city to prevent the rampant disease, and then said that we would take us to a place where we could survive. When you came just now, we were really scared of the thieves from all walks of life.
I don’t know if I’m the commander of the army, but if you’re guilty, please punish me, but don’t implicate the two heroes.” He said, threw away his crutch, knelt down and kowtowed.
The people in Xingyang behind him also knelt down and kowtowed to Huangfu Fu and others: "General, these two heroes are good people. Wu Fangzheng is right."
"General, please have mercy and take us away. We are willing to serve the people of Jin Dynasty for generations to come!"
Huangfu raised his eyebrows and raised his hand: "Okay, I believe what you say, fellow villagers. Please stand up."
A trace of joy flashed across Wu Fangzheng's face and he stood up. Huan Zhen's eyes fell on the Wang brothers on the side and sneered: "Who are these two young men?
Could it be that he is also an old and weak person in this city who cannot escape?"
Wang Rui said loudly: "My brothers are both from Xingyang. They joined the army a while ago and went on an expedition. Later, the Qin army collapsed. We had no choice but to go back together. We met these two heroes on the road and then we followed them back to Xingyang."
Huan Zhen laughed: "Okay, it turns out they are the remnants of the Qin army. This is a military merit brought to my door. Come here, please tie up these two enemy soldiers and go back to perform military merit!"
The faces of the Wang brothers changed. They picked up their bows and arrows and joined them back to back. A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Huan Zhen's mouth: "You still dare to resist! You are not a coward. Come and give me a shot."
Ground kill!"
When Liu Yu saw that things were about to get worse, he quickly took two steps forward, blocked the Wang brothers, and said loudly: "Wait a minute, I have something to say!"
Huan Zhen looked at Liu Yu proudly: "Abbas, I haven't settled the score with you yet, but you want to meddle in other people's business? We can let go of the people of Xingyang City, but these two are genuine Qin troops.
Don’t you know that the Great Jin Dynasty and the Puppet Qin Dynasty are mortal enemies? These two boys don’t know how much blood our Jin army soldiers have stained their hands. If we don’t capture them and have their hearts cut out to sacrifice the military flag, how can we still return them?
Are they going to be worshiped as ancestors? If you dare to meddle in other people's business again, be careful I order you to be killed together!"
