Chapter 53 Blood Sacrifice to the Dead Souls at the Border

"Your Highness, isn't this too cruel and harmful to the peace of heaven..."

Li Yuan couldn't help but said.

Fighting on the battlefield is one thing, but now that these people have surrendered and given up resistance and become prisoners, it is a bit too cruel to kill them all.

However, Li Chengdao said coldly: "Since they dare to attack the city, they must be prepared to die!"

"If we don't kill them, how can we establish the majesty of the Tang Dynasty and deter Mobei! How can we pay homage to the soldiers and people who have died over the years?"

"I want to use their blood to sacrifice the souls of the dead at the border!"

Li Chengdao said harshly that he had no good impression of the Turks, and he just wanted to let the Turks know what the power of the Tang Dynasty was!

The awe-inspiring killing intent in Li Chengdao's words made Yue Fei and others tremble.

They did not dare to say anything more and hurriedly retreated after receiving the order.

……

Li Chengdao led his troops to repel the [-] Turkic army and annihilated [-] enemy prisoners and [-] prisoners. The victory soon spread throughout Youzhou!

The people in Youzhou felt unbelievable at first, and then became extremely excited!
Over the years, Youzhou border has been plagued by Turks, but Youzhou guards have always adopted a defensive strategy and have never fought head-on with Turks.

However, Li Chengdao fought a great victory and killed countless Turkic soldiers. How could it not be exciting!

However, after this news, more shocking news came.

His Highness Taisun will behead 1 captives outside the city and order the entire city to come to watch the execution!
……

The next day, at noon, there was a huge square in Youzhou City.

More than 1 captured Turkic soldiers had their armor stripped off one by one. They were all wearing only single clothes and were tied up and kneeling in the center of the square, with unconcealed fear and panic on their faces.

The white-robed troops spread out and surrounded the square. At the same time, there were thirty siege crossbows aimed at the prisoners in the square to guard against any accidents.

And around the square, there were people from Youzhou City who came to watch the execution after seeing the notice, and the entire square was completely surrounded.

The crowd was noisy, and the eyes of the people fell on the Turkic captives in the square, most of them were full of hostility.

Hearing the news that Li Chengdao wanted to behead the Turkic prisoners, almost the entire people of Youzhou City came to hear the news!

The people of Youzhou have suffered from the Turks for a long time, and the vast majority of the people hate the Turks. How could they miss this heart-warming scene?
"This group of damned Turkic dogs! They also have today!"

"Pity my cousin's family. The whole family died at the hands of the Turks! The evil Turks even spared my niece who was under three years old! A bunch of inhuman beasts!"

"Kill! It's best to kill them all!"

"Kill all these Turkic dogs!"

……

There was a lot of anger in the crowd. I don't know who started it. The people started throwing rotten leaves and rotten eggs at the captives in the square. The captives were tied up and had difficulty avoiding, and they were beaten in such a mess.

Secondly, it was mainly the hateful looks of these Youzhou people that made them feel frightened.

In the midst of the commotion, a road suddenly parted among the crowd, and Li Chengdao, dressed in a white robe and silver armor, walked out with a sword on his waist, walking like a dragon and walking like a tiger, showing his extraordinary prowess.Behind him, Yue Fei and other generals followed closely, and a group of guards were responsible for opening the way.

After seeing Li Chengdao, the voices of the people suddenly became quieter, and everyone looked at Li Chengdao with incomparable reverence.

After Li Chengdao walked up to the viewing platform, he looked at the many people in the audience and said seriously: "Dear citizens of Youzhou, I am the grandson of the emperor Li Chengdao. I have called you here today because of the big battle yesterday!"

Li Chengdao's clear voice spread throughout the square. After he spoke, the entire square fell silent, with only his voice echoing.

"One month ago, Guchu came to Youzhou and encountered a group of Turkic cavalry looting the village on the road, so he ordered his troops to kill them all."

"What Ran Gu doesn't know is that the leader of that cavalry team is one of the eight surnames of the Turkic Royal Court, the only son of the leader of the Muka tribe."

"The Turkic army that invaded yesterday belongs to the Muka tribe. It was the leader who came here to seek revenge."

"I just find this ridiculous. A small Turkic barbarian dares to assemble a large army without permission, march to our border in Youzhou, and even make false remarks!"

Li Chengdao said it was ridiculous, but there was no smile on his face, but a cold look.

"I don't know how the rebel king Junlang has been guarding the border all these years. I just want to pull his body out of the grave and whip it!"

"He actually caused the Tang Dynasty's power to fall to this level! He actually made the people of Youzhou live under the threat of Turks all the time! It's really not a pity to die!"

When he said this, many people in the audience were filled with tears, and even couldn't help but burst into tears and sobbed softly.

Li Chengdao can be said to have expressed their feelings. The Turks have been rampant in recent years, but Wang Junlang has done nothing as a guard. I don't know how many people have suffered, and their families have been destroyed.

"Yesterday's battle! There were [-] Turkic troops. The soldiers under my command killed [-] enemies and captured [-] prisoners. The leader Turg was beheaded on the spot!"

"When I say this, I don't want to show off my achievements and let you sing praises, but I want to tell everyone one thing -"

Li Chengdao suddenly pulled out the sword from his waist, and then wiped his palm with blood, staining the blade with blood!
Li Chengdao held up his bleeding palm and said firmly: "I swear here! As long as I stay in Youzhou for one day, I will teach the Turks not to dare to invade! Let the power of the Tang Dynasty spread throughout Mobei!"

"Today, these 1 Turkic prisoners will be used as blood sacrifices for all the dead souls at the border!"

Li Chengdao's voice was stern, and then he threw his sword into the square with his backhand, inserting it deeply into the bluestone, and the handle of the sword kept shaking.

"cut!"

Following Li Chengdao's order, the white-robed soldiers immediately stepped forward and swung the steel swords in their hands. Twelve thousand prisoners' heads fell to the ground, blood sprayed out, and blood flowed into a river!
The whole square is like a hell on earth!

Many people turned their heads away and dared not look at it any more, and some were so shocked by the bloody scene that they vomited out on the spot.

However, more people in Youzhou looked at this scene with wide eyes, and their faces were excited!
"Long live His Majesty the Grand Sun!"

I don’t know who started it, but suddenly someone in the crowd shouted long live.

The title "Long Live" can only be given to the emperor, and it is obviously inappropriate to use it on Li Chengdao.

But after this voice sounded, more and more of the same voice sounded!

"Long live His Majesty the Grand Sun!"

"Long live His Majesty the Grand Sun!"
