Chapter 570 I wish there were fewer heroes in the world!
The sounds of fighting in Gaotang City stopped, and the ruins became quiet. Only the smell of dead flesh and blood could be smelled from high in the sky, and the circling crows made unpleasant cries.
The Qin veterans in black armor and crimson robes were like crows foraging among the corpses. They walked among the fallen knights and pirates, slashing at the undead, cutting off their heads with quick hands and feet, and removing their hair.
Tie it into a knot and tie it to your waist.
Someone had three or four heads hanging on his waist. They bumped into each other as they walked, like wine bags full of wine. Dark blood flowed down from the broken neck and covered the shoes.
The veterans of the Qin people turned a blind eye to this, talking and laughing to each other as they worked. For those who have experienced the war of unification, this scene is commonplace. What is on the ground are not heads, but money bags and land deeds. They are also like harvesting crops.
Keep bending down, raising and lowering the sword...
The new recruits from Dongjun and Hanoi couldn't accept it. They had already vomited next to them and stood tremblingly under the banner with "Jiaodong Guards" written on it.
The person holding the flag was Liu Ji, who was re-growing his beard. As the flag-carrying officer designated by Hei Fu himself, he did not participate in the battle, and looked at the young man who died in the battle with a very complicated look.
More than ten years ago, Liu Ji was also a rogue and light knight in the countryside. He stole chickens and dogs, indulged in righteousness, worshiped Lord Xinling, and would fight for Zhang Er for the favor of wine and meat. He also killed a Qin soldier in the Battle of Waihuang.
…
"If I die in Waihuang at that time, I will end up with the same fate as these Qidi knights who were killed, without their heads and without a burial place."
Thinking of this, Old Liu was a little scared. He was a smart man, and it would be a pity if he died so easily.
But on the other hand, Liu Ji also worked as a Qin official for a long time. As the chief of the pavilion, he would catch thieves in the countryside with ropes and rulers in his hands. Of course, he turned a blind eye to the locals, but when he encountered people from other places, he
The young fugitive who came here broke the law, so Liu Ji had no choice but to take his men to catch him, kill him on the spot, behead him, and happily repay him.
His dual identity made this battle very difficult for him.
But compared to the mentality of ordinary Qin officials and soldiers who "kill thieves and perform meritorious services", Liu Ji had more admiration and regret for the Tian brothers...
Although Tian Heng lost one leg, he was very brave and had martial arts skills. He fought bravely, wandered among the ruins, dodged arrows, and killed several people in a row. In the end, he was stabbed to death by the equally brave Cao Shen at close range.
.His head had been chopped off and presented to the black husband, while the body remained in place.
But until he died, until he was beheaded, Tian Heng still held the weapon. Qin Bing tried to let go of his hand, but couldn't break it off at all, so he had to give up. Looking at it at this moment, he seemed to be Xing Tian who always had a fierce will...
As for Tian Dan, the initiator of this turmoil, he was also dead, killed by random arrows.
In order to protect Tian Dan's head and body, the remaining dozens of light knights all fought to the death, and were eventually destroyed. Where the body lay, there was the "Linggu" banner, which was the symbol of Qi's governance, with the words "Linggu" on it.
The two crossed dragons are now dyed a little bit red, as if weeping blood.
The people who just resolutely sang songs to die, now only the corpses are left on the ground, lifeless. If people have souls, they may be gathering in the sky, listening to the orders of the Tian brothers, and rushing to Qi people's "underworld" Haoli...
Recalling that tragic scene, Liu Ji couldn't help but secretly praise: "The Tian brothers are able to win scholars and have high integrity. The guests are light knights and die because of their loyalty. Aren't they the most virtuous! They are all heroes!"
Although they did not understand current affairs and acted righteously when they should not have done so, they were unwise. Liu Ji praised their ambition, but did not agree with their strategy.
But in Liu Ji's view, it is better to cry out when there is injustice, to stand up and fight, even if you fail and die, but to make the world look at you with great vigor, than to be a coward and worry like a rat all day long!
Liu Ji was talking about himself! When Mr. Hei sent someone to congratulate him on his wedding with thousands of dollars, he had the opportunity to flee into the wild, but in the end he thought twice and, at Xiao He's suggestion, chose the path most likely to survive and came to the door.
Apologize to the black husband.
According to Liu Ji's assumption, for ordinary people, if a small person like him pleads guilty, the big person will most likely be released from the blame. But Hei Fu is a little different. Although he spared Liu Ji from death, he did not let him go home.
He stayed in Jiaodong and ordered him to do this and that, either as a pawn or as a flag-bearer, in short, under his nose.
If it weren't for the fact that the county guard had a wife and children, Liu Ji would have thought that he had any special requirements for him...
Living like a mouse under a cat's paw was not comfortable. Liu Ji wanted to leave, but he was an unfamiliar place in Jiaodong, and Heifu's retainers were watching him. He had no chance, so he could only endure it.
The Tian brothers did what they wanted to do but didn't, so Liu Jicai admired them and praised them as "heroes"!
At this moment, the soldiers of Qin were busy beheading, while the officials of Qin were settling accounts after the fall, collecting the faults of the rebels and convicting them, such as treason, killing officials, robbery, rape and plunder, but in Liu Ji's view...
Zhu Tian fights for his family, what's wrong with that?
What's wrong with a light knight fighting for himself?
Selfish? Harmful to the whole country? Harmful to the people?
"Pooh!"
Lao Liu disdained the criticism of Qin officials.
Who is not selfish?
Who in this world doesn’t live and fight for themselves!?
He talks about benevolence, righteousness and morality, but he criticizes this and that from the moral high ground.
Is it Moroda's hypocrisy, or are you being hypocritical?
When everyone talks, they only look at their butts and not their brains.
What is right and what is wrong, what is good for me is right, what is harmful to me is wrong, what I like is justice, what I hate is evil.
The logic is so simple and clear. If you are not a Mohist, how can you come up with so much "for the common people of the world".
In Liu Ji's eyes, the common people in the world should be considered after victory. Before that, slaughter them and kill them. The means are not important, only the results are the only thing!
Of course, now that he is in the claws of the black husband, he cannot be free, so he can only hold on to the flagpole and think about it in his heart.
But just this small wish is not enough...
"Are you thinking that the Tian brothers are heroes?"
A terrible sound sounded nearby, and Liu Ji's scalp suddenly became numb. He gripped the flagpole tightly and stood up straight!
It was Hei Fu. He and his two trusted guards rode past Liu Ji and stopped one step in front of him. The guards were holding swords and stood on either side. Hei Fu looked at the inner city full of corpses and smiled.
:
"There was a policeman... Well, the senior who was the chief of the pavilion told me that this man had two legs, one for good and one for evil, and they ended up together. No one is pure white, and no one is pure white.
It’s hard to be pure black.”
"These young knights were not engaged in production in the past. They were scoundrels who acted as they pleased. Since they are not in the jurisdiction, I have no control over them. Later, they followed the various fields to cause trouble and allowed the land to rot. They were traitors. I have decided to deal with it according to your Majesty's orders. In recent days, we have been
After suffering a defeat and struggling to move forward, he also began to commit crimes and rob people, becoming a villain. As a Qin official, I must bring him to justice."
"But now, they are facing death without fear. Although they are like a chariot, I see it in my eyes and want to call them warriors..."
Liu Ji didn't dare to speak, and his heart was beating wildly. This black man seemed to be able to read his mind and could always see through his thoughts.
Hei Fu turned his back to Liu Ji. Liu Ji couldn't see his expression and could only lower his head and listen to his words.
"I admit that brothers Tian Dan and Tian Heng are the heroes of Zhutian and their own heroes, but they are not the heroes of the people of Qi, let alone the people of the world!"
The people suffered in both rise and fall. Heifu, who had served in the army for ten years, had shed enough blood during the unification war.
Once he becomes famous and his bones are withered, the birth of a "hero" in this world, the ambition he creates, and the career he creates are enough to devastate all living beings. What's more, in just ten years, dozens or twenty "heroes" will emerge?
Most of the people who find it fun and exciting to see heroes vying for the throne are just idlers sitting in their study rooms, theaters, or in front of the TV. As for people in this world?
They would rather be peace dogs!
"So I just wish that there would be fewer of these so-called 'heroes' in this world!"
Heifu turned around and looked at Liu Ji, who had led his horse and held the flag for him. This great hero in history who "always promoted heroes to kill Qin Xiang" said with a smile:
