My whole family is fleeing

Chapter 48 Are you really innocent?

Amidst the continuous crying and shouting in Lu'an City, Ning Ning was held in Wu Shan's arms, quietly looking at everything around him with his eyes.

In her short life, she has seen too much suffering, and these sufferings are bound to leave a lasting mark in her life.

Just as Ning Ning was being led by Wu Shan towards the city, a pair of eyes on the roadside were staring at her closely. The intense emotion in their eyes almost broke through them and ran out.Who is that?The little girl who was cherished and carefully protected like a little fairy child was incompatible with this county that had become a purgatory on earth.

Moreover, this little girl can actually walk behind the general. Who is she?
Forget it, isn't this the most important thing? Is the general someone you can trust?Can he give the county magistrate's seal to the general?Can the other party really be trusted?Even the Dali people behind them would break down their city gates, steal their food, and insult innocent girls!Even the general is not completely sure whether he is a good person or not.

After staring expressionlessly at the general and his group for a long time, Li Sheng quietly hid in the darkness.Even in just a few days, Li Sheng had already learned things that he had never seen in the previous ten years. Although these experiences were dark, it must be said that they also allowed Li Sheng to grow up rapidly in the shortest time.

The general suddenly looked back, and his soldiers also turned back, but they only saw the shadows of houses hidden in the darkness, and besides that, there were a few corpses with miserable deaths.

"General?"

"...Nothing, let's go."

Xie Yongzhao withdrew his gaze with unclear meaning, and then continued walking in the direction of the county government. The last resistance force gathered there. It was said that there were weapons in their hands, which were far beyond the control of ordinary refugees.Speaking of which, there is indeed a problem with the identity of those people.

The sound of large troops walking on the streets was deafening, and the neat footsteps made the people hidden in the county government turn pale.

A big man with a beard looked pale at the moment, looking at his elder brother eagerly, his voice trembling so much that it was lost in the wind.

"Brother, is the general really here? Is that the general of the Northern Desert Army? Then, we won't die, right? I don't want to die yet. I haven't married a wife yet. I'm afraid..."

"To shut up!"

The man who was called eldest brother stared closely at what was going on outside and walked to the side. He was careful not to let people outside discover his whereabouts. However, this silly brother was still shouting. If he lured people away. Come here, he will definitely beat him to death!

After being yelled at by his elder brother for a while, the bearded man closed his mouth aggrievedly.Why is the eldest brother so cruel to himself?He is obviously already very obedient.

At this time, the eldest brother heard the noise coming from outside. The sound of neat footsteps was deafening, and he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.Damn, I really suffered a loss this time!He was obviously just using money to do things, but he was involved in a disaster that even the general of the Northern Desert Army wanted to personally investigate.They are obviously just street gangsters with no skills!How did it end up like this?

Moreover, the people who had contacted them before have now lost their traces, and no one knows where they went.Apparently he wanted to leave them and run away.But is this possible?They don't want to be the scapegoat!
Even if we want to use them as scapegoats, we still have to see if they are willing!
"boom!"

At this moment, the gate of the county government let out an overwhelming creak and roar, it was those Northern Desert Army!
The refugees hiding in the county government office were shaking like chaff and almost suffocating.Come in!They're coming in!These are all the Northern Desert Army!It is the ever-victorious army that has resisted the prairie barbarians for 20 years without letting them set foot in Dali!In the hearts of the people of Dali, the Northern Desert Army, especially the general of the Northern Desert Army, Xie Yongzhao, is the most respected person by all the people of Dali.Especially for people near the border, Xie Yongzhao is the most indestructible mountain in their hearts!

But now they are on opposite sides.Moreover, in this battle, on one side is the frightened refugee gang, on the other side is the Northern Desert Army leading many soldiers. The situation is simply one-sided!

Therefore, when the Northern Desert Army used broken city wood to break open the gate of the county government, what they saw was a group of shivering refugees lying on the ground.

Xie Yongzhao stared at those people who were stronger than the refugees lying everywhere outside, his eyes flashing slightly.Although these people were slightly stronger, they were not as powerful as the resistance they had just encountered at the city gate.So, who are these people?The soldiers in the Northern Desert were so numerous that they tied up those lying on the ground in a few seconds, tied them tightly and threw them in front of the general, telling them to answer honestly.

The general Shi Shiran sat on the chair that had been brought over, staring at the trembling refugees calmly, without saying a word for a long while.The refugees who had been prepared to be questioned suddenly felt a little guilty.This, why didn't the general say anything?They still wanted to be reserved, but the general didn't say anything, which made them at a loss.

Because the general didn't say a word, the pressure on these people doubled. After a while, some people couldn't help but quietly looked up, and then met Xie Yongzhao's half-smiling expression.How could Xie Yongzhao be harmless after fighting at the border for such a long time?When he stared at someone without saying a word, the other person almost fainted from fright!

The man with the beard was already a fake person, but when he saw the general's eyes as if he were looking at a dead thing, he was so frightened that he couldn't speak. However, just one look was enough to tell that this man was very guilty.

The general directly hit the bearded man.Immediately, the soldiers came out with a lot of discernment, pounced on him like a wolf and a tiger, and dragged out the man who saw something was wrong and wanted to struggle, but was hit with a fist on the temple and his whole body went limp.

"Help, I'm not a bad person, please let me go, I'm just following everyone to watch the fun, I just..."

"Why are you so noisy?"

Xie Yongzhao slowly touched his chin. The few strands of beard on his chin were smoothed by his caress, and they looked like they were carefully maintained.

When the soldier next to him saw this, he hit him with his elbow. The bearded man vomited a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground slumped, wailing in pain.The man he called eldest brother stared at this scene in fear for a long time, and could hardly suppress the exclamation on his lips.Although his younger brother is a bit stupid, he is still a blood relative and friend of his. It is okay for him to bully him on weekdays, but once he is bullied by others, he cannot stand it.

But when the general saw his expression, his eyes moved slightly, and he smiled and told his soldiers to continue.He obviously didn't ask anything, but the bearded man was beaten to the point of dying.

That man was not really stupid after all. He struggled to reach out his hand from the pile of soldiers and spoke in an extremely weak voice.

"I, I recruit..."

"Huh? Why don't I know what to recruit?"

The man almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, but he still managed to speak.

"I really didn't mean it. I just heard that if you follow these people all the way north, you will have food, so I followed them. I didn't do anything bad, I just ate something. I was hungry. I was there before. They were all fucked by skinny men, and I finally had enough to eat, so I didn’t care about much anymore.”

"General, everyone says you are compassionate, but couldn't you think about it from the perspective of us refugees and leave us a way to survive?"

The general really didn't expect this rude-looking man to be so eloquent. He slowly sat up straight and stretched out a finger.This finger pointed at the miserable streets strewn with corpses outside the county government office, as well as the citizens of Lu'an County who kept wailing.

"You said, you are just an innocent commoner? Have you heard these wailings? The innocent commoners of Dali live here too! They originally lived in the place where their ancestors had been for generations, working hard all their lives to support their families. Who would have thought that instead of dying under the iron hooves of the grassland barbarians, I would die at the hands of our Dali people!"

"Pat your conscience and tell me again, are you really innocent?"
