Bodies were scattered all over the ground, and Zhao Kai stood there with a long sword, as if the god of death had come down to earth.
"You can't kill me, you can't kill me..." Xiao Wang's daughter-in-law, Xiao Juan, saw Zhao Kai's appearance at this time and thought of the tragic ending of those Qing soldiers, and suddenly screamed like crazy.
When Xiao Wang saw such a bloody scene, he was even more unbearable. He was trembling all over and begging for mercy in nonsense. Seeing Xiao Wang's cowardly performance, Zhao Kai finally understood why the old village chief died.
, Xiao Wang, as the head of the family, is so cowardly and incompetent that he allows a fierce woman to take care of the family, and in the end he can only end up with his family ruined.
"If I had known it would happen today, why bother?" Zhao Kai put away the long sword in his hand and walked up to Xiao Juan. With a crisp "click", Xiao Juan's throat was crushed directly. With a "plop", Xiao Juan's throat was crushed.
Juan opened her eyes wide and fell to the ground, unable to get up again.
After that, Zhao Kai glanced at Xiao Wang again, ignored him, mounted his horse and walked away.
There are still six days left before Yi'er's execution, so Zhao Kai is not in a hurry. Since the notice has said so, Zhang Zhaozhong must have just wanted to use Yi'er as bait, and presumably he will not harm her life before the execution.
The cell in Hangzhou was heavily guarded, and the heaven and earth must have been prepared for him to go. Although Zhao Kai was not afraid, he would probably regret it if he harmed Yi'er because of his mistake.
Life. Therefore, Zhao Kai prepared to wait. On the day of execution, there would be many people watching, which would easily cause chaos in the execution ground, so he would be more confident.
After Zhao Kai arrived in Hangzhou City, he hid himself until the morning of the seventh day. The execution site was set in an open space by the West Lake.
As soon as it dawned, several government officials arrived at the open space by the West Lake and began to clean the execution ground. Zhang Zhaozhong had already led his soldiers and executioners to wait in front of the prison door. At a glance, there were about five hundred people.
"Sir, do you think Mr. Yuanhua and the rebels from the Red Flower Society will be back today?" One of the commanders, dressed as an officer, walked up to Zhang Zhaozhong and bowed and asked.
"The rebels from the Red Flower Society will definitely come, but I originally thought that Mr. Yuanhua would not dare to come no matter what. But after the news came from Wangjiacun a few days ago, I felt that this
Mr. Yuanhua Zhao Kai will definitely come. However, it’s the same for everyone this time, haha.” At the end of the sentence, Zhang Zhaozhong couldn’t help laughing proudly.
"Your Excellency is wise." The officer commander immediately agreed flatteringly.
Let us turn our attention to the other side. At this time, all the leaders of the Red Flower Club have already gathered in Hangzhou City.
"Chief Commander, the edge of the West Lake is full of Qing soldiers, including the Imperial Forest Army battalions." Zhao Banshan, the Thousand-Armed Tathagata, walked to the middle of the crowd and said in a low voice.
It was expected that the guards at the execution ground would be seriously ill, so Chen Jialuo nodded and asked: "Approximately how many people are there?"
At this time, Wen Tai, the thunder running hand standing aside, said back and forth: "There are seven to eight thousand people in total, not counting the soldiers from the flag camp who are supporting the outside."
Chen Jialuo ordered: "Immediately summon the brothers outside Hangzhou and gather at the lake to wait for orders. Be sure not to let the government notice. Everyone has a red flower hidden on his body." Wen Tailai nodded and accepted the order. Chen Jialuo felt uneasy.
, and asked: "Time is running out, how many people can be summoned immediately?"
Wen Tailai thought for a while and replied: "There are about two thousand people who can come here immediately. In an hour, when the brothers from outside the city arrive, there will be more than a thousand people." After hearing this, Chen Jialuo finally felt relieved.
Said: "Our brothers are at least one to five. Three thousand people are worth fifteen thousand Qing soldiers. The number is enough. Besides, there are still our brothers in the green camp. You can make arrangements." Wen Tai came to receive the order.
Gather the troops and go.
But our protagonist, classmate Zhao Kai, is not going anywhere or thinking about anything at the moment. He is just sitting quietly on the eaves of a roof, holding a piece of white cloth and quietly wiping the sword in his hand. If you observe carefully, you can see that
It can be seen that Zhao Kai is constantly mumbling something.
"Hey, when will I have to find a good sword again? I don't know how many people I'm going to kill later. I'm afraid this sword will be cut into a curled blade."
The sky in early winter is always very hazy. Thick clouds pile up in the sky as if they will collapse at any time. Occasionally, a cold wind blows through, making people shiver.
Cheng Yi was shackled and was escorted by Zhang Zhaozhong to the open space beside the West Lake, where a execution ground had already been set up.
There were so many people watching on the edge of the execution ground. A group of jugglers in the east tried to squeeze into the execution ground, but the soldiers refused to let them go, so a dispute broke out. There was a lively commotion here, and for some reason a group of beggars in the west also forced their way into the execution ground.
As he was about to squeeze into the execution ground, he suddenly heard the soldiers screaming, causing complete chaos.
In the chaos, only a dozen Qing soldiers were seen with wounds on their chests, and no one knew how they died. Another fire suddenly broke out in the south, and there were loud shouts everywhere. Zhang Zhaozhong ordered the guards to just guard Cheng Yi and do their own business.
He ignored them all, in case he fell into the enemy's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. But the fire became more and more intense. A military commander rushed in and shouted: "They are rebels from the Red Flower Society! They have already started fighting with the brothers." Zhang Zhaozhong.
Said: "Hey, he came just in time, he told them to come and go. By the way, is Mr. Yuan Hua here?"
As soon as Zhang Zhaozhong finished speaking, a soldier ran up from the crowd. He was staggering in his steps and his face was full of terror, as if he had seen hell on earth.
"Why are you panicking? Mr. Zhang is here, don't be rude!" The officer commander saw his subordinates looking lost and lost. He suddenly felt that he was shameless and yelled loudly.
"No, no, no, it's not good, then north, north..." The soldier was obviously frightened, and his words were stammering and unclear.
"Tell me carefully, what exactly is there in the north?" Zhang Zhaozhong stepped forward, pressed his hands on the soldier's shoulders, and said.
"Zhang, Mr. Zhang, there is a devil coming from the north. He has killed more than a hundred of our brothers by himself." After being pressed by Zhang Zhaozhong, the soldier was finally able to speak out completely.
.
"A person? Who is it?" Although Zhang Zhaozhong already had an answer in his mind, he still couldn't help but ask.
"That's the person in the portrait that your Excellency showed us."
"Master Yuanhua, Zhao Kai, you are indeed here, haha." Zhang Zhaozhong suddenly laughed. "By the way, your companions are dead, why did you come back?"
"me......"
"The weak do not deserve to live in this world. Since they are all dead, you should go down and accompany them."
There was only a "click" sound, and the poor little soldier's throat was completely crushed, and he could not die anymore.
