Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Zhu Yan glanced at the scarred people, hesitated a little, put the sword back into the sheath, turned and went back to the house to clean up the corpses.

The fire was lit again, and the bloody smell could not be dissipated.

The doors and windows were shattered, and the cold wind gushed in. The men and the others took advantage of the firelight to simply treat the injuries on their bodies, and then looked towards Su Rao.

"You can recognize the ordnance and the nameplate. It seems that you are not an ordinary wealthy family. Dare to ask Miss, is the family in the court?"

Su Rao had a good impression of this third brother. Judging from the previous conversations, he was at least upright and kind-hearted, so even if this accident happened, she was still willing to talk to him.

In addition, look at the attitudes of a few people towards him. Among these people, he is the one who makes up his mind.

She replied: "Well, how about you? Who are you?"

The man was silent for a moment, then raised his hand and took out the same nameplate from his pocket, hanging it in front of everyone, Zhu Yan was slightly startled, took two steps forward to take it in his hand, weighed it over and over again, turned back and said to Su Rao: "Miss , the same plaques found on the dead men."

"Xiao San..."

He said to the man, "Is this your name?"

The man's complexion was gloomy, and he gave a deep 'um' sound, which was regarded as a response.

"Since you are from Weize Camp, why did you appear here and be hunted down by them?"

Su Rao's words seemed to hit the sore spot of several people, their faces were pale, and they all lowered their heads when they heard the words, even the most ecstatic young man pursed his lips and remained silent, with a clearly visible anger brewing in his eyes.

"It's a long story."

Xiao San's voice was low with a little tiredness, he sighed, and looked at the blazing fire, the light of the fire imprinted in his eyes, it was cold and cold, but there was no warmth.

"Miss, do you know about the rebellion in the north?"

"I've heard about it."

Su Rao glanced at him, and tentatively asked, "Could it be that Weize Camp is also related to this matter?"

"The Weize Battalion is one of the best garrison forces in Jizhou, and it was also the first to participate in the rebellion..."

Speaking of this, Xiao San smiled wryly, "It's not right to say that. At first, Weize Battalion mobilized its troops to participate in the battle..."

"At least, we think so."

"But later, Tao Ding'an, the higher-ups ordered us to go to Jimo to wipe out the rebellion of the local garrison army. After several bloody battles, different voices gradually appeared in the army, saying that we were the ones who caused the rebellion."

"After the Jimo granary was 'taken back', the Weize Battalion was ordered to station outside the city. At that time, the troops were weakened, and the military supply was cut off after the snowfall. People were panicked and the conflict became more intense."

"At that time, we didn't realize that something was wrong."

The flames danced in his eyes, flickering on and off, and everyone's hearts seemed to be firmly grasped by an invisible big hand, which was so dull and suffocating.

Several people, including Xiao San, showed different degrees of grief on their faces at this time.

Su Rao glanced at them, wondering: "What's wrong?"

"People in the army are constantly disappearing."

Xiao San looked at them deeply, and spoke words like knives, "With the spread of the true and false news of the rebellion and the shortage of food, there were frequent fights around. Boss Shen was injured in protecting us. return."

"The explanation given by the above is that the wound was seriously injured and has been buried."

"But we saw Boss Shen's injury at the time, and it didn't hurt the vitals. However, their attitude was tough. We couldn't find it for a long time, so we had to give up."

"Let's take this as an accident. What happened next is even weirder."

As soon as Xiao San finished speaking, a young man's voice came in, "Nine out of ten people who were sent for medical treatment have disappeared, and some of them are said to be deserters. Might avoid the eyeliner and leave."

"That's when we realized there was a problem."

"Second brother said he went to investigate, and he never came back the next day."

The boy's eyes were red, "When we found him later, he was in the slop bucket in the kitchen, with only his head left..."

The swelling of the bubble, if you don't identify it carefully, you can't recognize that it is their always talkative and kind brother.

Hearing the word 'kitchen', Zhu Yan shuddered.

He thought of that butcher Feng again, and the fragrant meat and bone soup in the kitchen of his butcher shop...

"what do you mean……"

"Those animals...they killed all the sick and weak people and sent them to the kitchen as...as..."

The word "grain" is like a red-hot iron, just thinking about it makes the boy's throat sore.

Fortunately, a few of them were fined to clean the ordnance because of the fight at that time, and they couldn't catch up with the meal when they returned, so they could only fill their stomachs with soaked bran cakes.

Otherwise... what they eat is the brothers who have lived and died together on the battlefield.

"After discovering this, the third brother went to report to the general."

The young man glanced at Xiao San's direction, and Zhu Yan said angrily: "What's the use of reporting, the army is in such a mess, the general is not a good thing."

Su Rao remained silent.

At the critical moment of life and death, what a person can do to survive is absolutely beyond the reach of imagination.

She had seen too many examples like this, and she couldn't make any waves in her heart.

Rather than yelling angrily, Su Rao cared more about what happened next to them: "Cannibalism in the military sounds unacceptable, but it doesn't take so much effort to chase and kill you, is there another reason?"

"That's what the lady said."

Xiao San accepted the words, and sighed: "The trouble came when I was looking for the general. It was night, and before I approached the big tent, I saw the general walking out looking left and right, as if deliberately avoiding people. , is very sneaky."

"So I followed in secret."

Su Rao listened quietly, waiting for his next words. Xiao San paused, swallowed his saliva, and continued: "I found out that he had a secret meeting with people in the forest and talked about the situation of Tao Ding and Jimo. I know that the so-called rebellion and mobs are fundamentally a conspiracy carefully planned by them."

"The purpose is to cause unrest in Jizhou."

"...what good does it do them?"

Zhu Yan asked out her doubts bluntly, if they hadn't made too much noise, they wouldn't have made the young master decide to change his career, and he is still running around.

"Yeah, what good can it do for them? I couldn't figure it out at first, until I heard them mention Dayan Chen Bing crossing the pass..."

"Pingdu Pass?"

Su Rao asked in surprise, "Isn't that the gate of Liangzhou?"

Apart from Jizhou, Liangzhou was the hardest hit by this snow disaster. The imperial government's relief food was blocked on the way, and the enemy army took the opportunity to knock on the pass. For Liangzhou, it was definitely a catastrophe.

"Is this what they planned?"
