Turbulent Times Chapter 1254: The vengeful people

"My lord, County Magistrate Zhang woke up and said that he would kneel in front of the lord and beg for help." Before the captives finished watching, Shen Guoer sent a subordinate to report to Wang Junlin.

Speaking of which, the two spies from the Military Intelligence Bureau who broke into the rogues made a lot of contributions this time. Not to mention defeating the rogues without any loss, and taking back Yangwu County. And this is not over yet, these two spies even took advantage of the chaos to rescue County Magistrate Zhang.

"Let's go, go and have a look at this hard-boned county magistrate Zhang." Wang Junlin said, and then rode towards the county government. A person like Zhang county magistrate deserves to be met by Wang Junlin himself. .

…

…

"The next official, Zhang Huiqing, pays homage to the prince."

"My lord, as long as you help me kill Li Feng, I will be willing to serve my lord from now on." The magistrate of Yangwu County named Zhang Huiqing dragged his wounded body when he saw Wang Junlin. He knelt down directly facing Wang Junlin.

Wang Junlin sighed, knelt down and helped Zhang Huiqing up, but the latter's eyes were red, his face was crazy, he was so stubborn that he couldn't get up.

"I beg you to agree to my subordinate. The only one in the world who can help my subordinate to avenge blood and blood is the prince. If the prince does not agree, the subordinate will die in front of the prince. Woooooo..." When Zhang Huiqing said this , already burst into tears, and cried loudly before he finished speaking.

Wang Junlin can see that Zhang Huiqing's heart is bleeding, and there is only hatred in his heart. In fact, this is normal. Whoever saw his wife and daughter being raped to death by thieves in turn would be like this, and his heart is weak. The older generation even directly became a lunatic.

"Master Zhang doesn't have to be like this. I can promise you that Li Feng will be caught and handed over to you." Wang Junlin could do nothing but agree to the other party's request.

"Thank you, my lord, as long as my lord avenges my blood, I will give my lord the rest of my life..." Zhang Huiqing obviously believed in Wang Junlin's ability and reputation, and immediately kowtowed to Wang Junlin again in ecstasy.

Just before Zhang Huiqing finished speaking, Wang Junlin helped him up and interrupted his sworn words: "Master Zhang, you don't have to do this,

Master Zhang would rather die than surrender, and I admire him very much. "

At this time, Shen Guoer came to report: "My lord, after the screening of our spies who entered the rogues in advance, we have selected the heinous ones among the more than 6,000 captives, especially those who have eaten human flesh and raped women. , There are more than 1,400 rogues who have slaughtered the common people, how can these people be reasonable."

Wang Junlin looked cold, and said: "How else can I deal with it, just pull it down and kill it, and let those recruits in the supply camp who have never killed anyone or seen blood kill them."

Shen Guoer hesitated for a while, and was about to say something, when Zhang Huiqing suddenly said: "My lord ordered the killing of so many people, it will make my lord's reputation even worse, and it will be detrimental to my lord's reputation. Why don't I hand it over to my subordinates? The officials summoned the people in the city who had been persecuted by the thieves and killed them together, which is also regarded as revenge, and at the same time, this move can also win the hearts of the people for the prince, without damaging the reputation of the prince."

Shen Guoer's eyes lit up, and she said: "My lord, what Master Zhang said is true, and it is also in accordance with the law of the court to hand over these thieves to Master Zhang."

Wang Junlin was a little hesitant, because he admired this Zhang Huiqing very much, and he didn't want him to bear the name of cruelty.

Seeing Wang Junlin's hesitation, Zhang Huiqing knelt down again with a thump.

Seeing this, Wang Junlin sighed, and without waiting for Zhang Huiqing to say anything, he pulled him up again and said, "If that's the case, then let Master Zhang deal with these more than a thousand heinous thieves!"

…

…

When the sun was shining in the afternoon, Zhang Huiqing gathered all the people in the county on the flat ground in front of the county seat. He organized more than 200 adult men who were most severely persecuted by the rogues, and began to kill the selected rogues. .

Zhang Huiqing took the lead and killed the ten bandits who were **** in one go before he stopped panting, covered in blood, especially one of the bandits who raped his wife and daughter was recognized by him, and he He slashed dozens of knives in one breath, and almost turned into meat, which was more or less revenge.

With the county magistrate taking the lead, other families persecuted by the bandits were ruined, especially their wives and daughters were like the county magistrate.

The rogues in the back who hadn't had their turn suddenly mourned loudly

Howled, weeping at the county magistrate and the common people, the surrounding people were greatly relieved, but the ordinary refugees and bandits were all trembling, and some family members of the selected bandits screamed and cried bitterly.

The crying family members were ignored. Those who cursed the officers, soldiers and county magistrates were soon sent by Wang Junlin, and the commander of the Iron Hammer Battalion, who was sitting here with the army, ordered Guan Xiaotong to be beheaded directly, beheading six or seven people. After that, no one among the refugees dared to curse again.

After killing four or five hundred people, the remaining rogues knew that they would not survive, so they stopped begging for mercy. Some put on a heroic attitude, claiming to be a good man again in twenty years, while others scolded Wang Junlin loudly, and cursed County Magistrate Zhang. It's just that as soon as he opened his mouth to curse Wang Junlin, Guan Xiaotong immediately sent someone to cut off his head.

Although these common people are red-eyed, they are novice hands after all, and those rogues who can't be killed with a single blow often have to be slashed many times, causing blood to flow everywhere in the field, and the wailing of the rogues is unbearable.

But no one will feel cruel, because this is the way of the times, this is the troubled times, the way these rogues dealt with the people of Yangwu County yesterday is a hundred times more cruel than this, and these people really deserve to die, everyone deserves it The real crime is heinous.

In addition, letting the people of Yangwu County witness the whole process can leave a deep impression on them. In the future, through their mouths, the reputation of the Far Eastern Army will be spread, especially among the rogues. The infamous reputation, it is definitely more effective when fighting a war.

…

…

With Zhang Huiqing's full cooperation, Wang Junlin didn't have to worry about the affairs of Yangwu County, and started to prepare for the battle. Before there was no city to defend, Wang Junlin was worried about being surrounded from all directions, but now that Yangwu County is in place, Wang Junlin is not worried about being surrounded at all.

The army rested in Yangwu County for two days, and the horses and soldiers finally recovered, and the exhaustion from the long journey was basically eliminated. Wang Junlin called the generals to hold the final battle meeting, and invited Yangwu County Magistrate Zhang Huiqing come over.

Guan Xiaotong welcomed Zhang Huiqing into the camp at the gate of the camp under Wang Junlin's order.
