Chapter 725: Spring rain in April, rivers of blood
At the gate of the Southern Expedition Camp, two thousand people were divided into two rows and kneeling there.
In one row, they were all wearing Buddhist robes and with their bald heads. There was no doubt that these were monks recently captured by the Qin army.
In the other row, there are all kinds of clothing, including silk and fine clothes, and coarse linen clothes. These are the loyal followers of Buddhism who were captured by the Qin army.
The reason why these people are regarded as loyal followers of Buddhism is simple. They once protected Buddhist temples and violently resisted the Qin army.
Although some of them showed poor violence, they just threw rubbish and stones at the Qin army, or they insulted Qin from a Buddhist perspective.
After Lin Ze learned about it, he sent an order to the entire army. If he encountered such a person, he would be treated as a Buddhist traitor, and he would be killed or captured, and military merit would be calculated accordingly.
As a result, there were 50,000 more Buddhist faithful believers in the cells of the Southern Expedition Camp.
Two thousand people's hands were tightly tied behind their backs. Under the special arrangement of the Qin army, they looked at each other face to face and could "appreciate" each other's embarrassment up close.
In contrast, two thousand Qin soldiers stood behind the two thousand people, all holding long swords and looking murderous.
A Qin Army general looked up at the sky, and was shocked to find that a burst of dark clouds suddenly floated in the sky, covering the sun and most of the sunlight, and there was even a trace of spring rain.
"Forget it, we don't have to wait until three quarters of noon," the general muttered, pulled out his long sword, slashed hard, and at the same time shouted: "The time is up, slash."
Then two thousand soldiers of the Qin army raised their long swords high and chopped them down with all their strength.
Two thousand heads then flew out.
The spurting blood mixed with the rainwater and gradually formed a blood river.
The general nodded with a satisfied look on his face, and his sword skills were sharp and sharp. It was worth noting that he had fought for the execution opportunity from the summit.
"Everyone is here, gather up the team."
Two thousand soldiers of the Qin army quickly gathered together to form two neat queues, and ran away after the general.
Hundreds of civilians who had been waiting nearby swarmed over and dragged the headless body away for burial.
Some headless corpses dressed in rich costumes became the objects of their struggle.
Generally speaking, these people will have some valuable items missing from their bodies, which is the main source of income for the civilians who collect the corpses.
In the end, those heads will be dragged together ten miles away from the camp and piled up into the Jingguan.
When a tall and thin Qin soldier guarding the camp gate saw this scene, he couldn't help but poked his companion and asked: "Didn't the champion give the order to start killing these prisoners half a month later? Why are you starting to do it now?"
?”
The companion, who was holding a Changge, was a little drowsy at first, but when he was stabbed by the tall and thin soldier, he immediately started up and woke up.
When he heard the lanky soldier's question, he said angrily: "The news you learned is out of date a long time ago. The champion has issued a new order a long time ago, and we will start killing batches now."
"It is said that the champion didn't expect that there would be so many prisoners, and considering that there were too many prisoners, the cell could not accommodate them. So we had to pick some thorns and kill them first."
The tall and lanky soldier nodded thoughtfully, keeping these words in mind, and secretly thinking about how to send this latest news back.
…
In the Southern Expedition Camp, in the coach's tent, Lin Ze took out a jade box from a large package, opened it, and put a seventh-grade natural material inside into his mouth, chewing it, and sighed:
"Why is there no such thing as a storage ring in this world? Every time I go out, I carry big and small bags. I look like a wage earner in my previous life who rushed home at the end of the year to celebrate the New Year."
Well, is there anyone?
Lin Ze was secretly refining the medicinal materials he had just swallowed, and shouted: "Who is he?"
A very loud voice came from outside the house: "Tu Gang, the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Route of the Southern Army, is here to pay homage to the champion and ask for his respect."
Tu Gang? Isn’t Tu Gang a subordinate of Zhao Tuo? Why did he come suddenly?
"Did Zhao Tuo send you here?" Lin Ze suddenly asked.
At the door, Tu Gang glanced at the four guards standing in front of him, whose martial arts skills were vaguely higher than his own. He swallowed his saliva and said: "The last general was not sent by Marquis Longchuan. What we are talking about can only be discussed with the Marquis privately.
I hope the Marquis will understand."
Lin Ze thought for a moment and said, "Then come in."
Tu just wanted to say thank you, but found that his body was suddenly out of control, and then the scene turned, he was still at the door, and he was clearly inside the house.
Tu Gang was slightly distracted when he saw the handsome young man in front of him that overlapped in his memory. He also thought about the ruthless tactics of the person in front of him, which made him a little nervous.
Tu Gang suppressed his discomfort, bowed and saluted: "The last general Tu Gang pays homage to the champion."
Lin Ze waved his hand and said, "I remember that I had dealt with General Tu more than ten years ago. Since we are acquaintances, there is no need to be polite."
"Tell me, why do you dare to come to see me?"
It seemed that because Lin Ze mentioned those years, Tu Gang's heart relaxed slightly and he said, "I don't dare to deceive the Marquis. I am here for Buddhism."
Lin Ze looked at Tu Gang meaningfully, his eyes bright and shining.
Tu Gang's heart tightened for no reason, and he said hurriedly: "Master Marquis, please listen to what the general has to say. Buddhism does not want to conflict with the master, and the general is here to seek peace."
Lin Ze couldn't deny it and said: "Seek peace? Haha, can you represent Buddhism?"
Tu Gang looked bitter: "In the eyes of Buddhism, the general is just a running dog. How can he represent Buddhism? He is just using his wealth and life to convey a message for his master."
"If the Marquis has no intention of seeking peace and casually kills the general, the Buddhists will not feel the least bit sad."
Lin Ze chuckled softly: "Okay, there is no need to play the drama of bitter love. For the sake of the slightest affection in the past, I will not kill you."
Tu just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Lin Ze say in a cold voice: "But I hate traitors the most in my life, especially those who play tricks on others. They can avoid the death penalty but cannot escape the punishment of living. I will destroy your cultivation as a punishment.
"
After saying that, he pointed to Tu Gang.
Tu Gang's face was horrified when he heard this. Before he could ask for mercy, he felt that all the acupuncture points, meridians, and Dantian collapsed under Lin Ze's casual finger.
All the majestic true energy dispersed into the space between heaven and earth.
Lin Ze said with an indifferent expression: "Whatever the Buddhists want to talk about, it's not impossible. Let them send someone with weight over."
"The best thing to do is prepare enough apology gifts."
"Come here, send General Tu out."
The two guards received Lin Ze's order, entered the room, and dragged the distraught Tu Gang out.
When the guards took Tu Gang away, Lin Ze sneered: "Buddhist seeks peace? If you want to fight, fight, if you want to make peace, then make peace. How can there be such a good thing in the world? Do you really think that everyone in the world is your mother?"
"Come here, give me the order to execute 20,000 monks immediately. Priority will be given to those with martial arts skills and high martial arts cultivation."
"Half of the 50,000 loyal believers were captured and executed together."
"Don't they like these monks very much? I will help them and let them have a companion."
The understatement revealed endless murderous intent.
After hearing the order, the guards were a little dazed. The word "Killing God" suddenly appeared in their minds. This champion prince actually had some of the demeanor of Lord Wu An back then.
Originally, because of the constant spring rain, most of the Qin soldiers stayed in the barracks and had nothing to do.
After Lin Ze gave this order, these people immediately became excited and rushed to sign up to be the executioners.
Half an hour later, the rain became heavier and heavier, and there was a real river of blood in front of the Southern Expedition camp.
