Modern Couples' Life in Women's Society

Chapter 200 Life is better than death!

"Life is better than death! If you really want to live, you can't ask for death!" When the scholar heard Xiao Tong's first question was whether they were doing well, he knew that this person was a kind person, and his expression relaxed. Li's vigilance disappeared in an instant.

After finishing his anger, he glanced at Xiao Tong nervously, and continued, "The reason for appearing here today is because Qi Hua won the victory and knew that Marshal Mo was coming with his troops. Let us come to stop you and say yes..." Said He paused here, as if he was holding back something.

"She said that if you attack the city, she will order to kill the former Wuyuan City guards, officials and garrisons who were captured by them. She said that those people are not ordinary people, and even if they are killed, it is justifiable. Wuyuan was captured suddenly, everyone was captured before they realized it, and those who resisted a little were killed on the spot, and those people were all from Wuyuan, and they were all relatives around us. We really had no choice..."

The words were full of hatred and helplessness, looking at the army behind Xiao Tong, frenzy and hesitation flashed in his eyes, as if he didn't know what to do.

"I'm sorry, we're late..." Xiao Tong looked at her and the group of Wuyuan city residents who were looking at them attentively behind her, feeling sour in his heart, he couldn't help but said.

"We didn't protect you well and didn't come to the rescue in time. It was our negligence as a soldier. I, Mo Li, apologize to you here. I'm sorry everyone. We came late and caused you to suffer this!"

After Xiao Tong's apology, it was Mo Li's heavy voice. He heard what Xiao Tong was thinking, no, he thought more than Xiao Tong, so he got off his horse immediately, raised his voice, and then Take a deep bow.

The soldiers behind him didn't understand. Seeing Mo Li like this, the soldiers who had already dismounted with Mo Li, and the infantry behind them all bowed down.

The whole city was silent, and those Wuyuan city residents who had looked desperate and had vigilance in their eyes just now watched this scene dumbfounded, and the shock in their hearts can be imagined.

They didn't seem to react until they saw Mo Li standing up straight, and they stepped forward to help the soldiers closest to them in a little helplessness. At this time, many men who were in the crowd couldn't help crying.

Before Mo Li could say anything, a middle-aged woman in the crowd pulled a young woman with her head bowed out, knelt down in front of Mo Li with a plop, and kowtowed heavily.

"This eldest sister, please get up quickly." Mo Li took a step and didn't have time, and it was hard to pull, Xiao Tong had already stepped forward to help, but the woman couldn't get up, she still knelt and looked up at Mo Li and said .

"General Mo, the grass people know that you are General Mo. From what you said just now, I know that you are a good person. Please take away the youngest son of the grass people. The eldest son of the grass people has been taken away by... those who are not as good as pigs and dogs in Qi State. I don’t know whether he is alive or dead. Luckily, the child has escaped, and he has been hiding in fear for so long, and today he finally got a chance to come out, and I beg you to take him away.” As he spoke, he was already choked up, and the man dressed as a woman next to him also Followed by crying.

"Elder Sister, you get up and talk first, what's the matter, you get up and talk first." Xiao Tong was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly helped her up again.

"General Mo, if you don't agree, Caomin won't get up. Caomin will only have this son, please."

"I promise, you get up and talk." Mo Li hurriedly said, the woman stood up after hearing this, and hurriedly pushed the man towards Mo Li, Xiao Tong hurriedly winked at Sima Ling, who was also dressed as a soldier, Sima Ling understood, and hurried forward to lead the man back.The man didn't want to, but stubbornly took his mother's hand and didn't let go.

Sima Ling and his team of military doctors and nurses are now basically dispatched together with the army, but they are a little behind in the battle, so as to treat the injured soldiers in time. Of course, they are also well protected, protecting their strength and their actions. The marshal's Mo Li is only a few more, mainly because of their large number.Sima Ling was better. Many of those nurses had been assassinated because they carried the wounded soldiers.

The woman ruthlessly tore off his hand, a stern look flashed across her face, the man cried out of breath and followed Sima Ling away, the woman watched her son being taken away reluctantly, her face was gone With a preoccupied expression, the leading middle-aged woman next to him said helplessly, "You forgot what the Qi people said before you came out, and if there is one less person to go back, one will be killed."

"I know, it's okay, I will take the initiative to stand up, and I will never hurt everyone or everyone's relatives. It's good to go early, maybe I can see Da'er." The woman's face remained unchanged, her expression Said calmly, I think I have thought of it a long time ago.

"Alas..." Hearing such an answer, the leading woman could only sigh helplessly, while Mo Li and Xiao Tong looked at each other, both of them saw shock in their eyes.

"According to the information we have, everything in Wuyuan City is still normal. Qi Huaying also issued a military order not to allow soldiers to harass the city residents, and he has never heard of people being detained." Xiao Tong couldn't help asking.

"The only people who are detained are their relatives and friends, and the military order issued by Qi Huaying only restricts most people, so how can they really stop all of them. Wuyuan City was humiliated and committed suicide in just a few dozen days. There are countless people. This is not the worst. The worst thing is that they can’t die. As long as they dare to die, their family members will be implicated. If they really want to survive, they can’t die.” The words of the leading woman fully explained What did she mean by what she said at the beginning that life would be better than death.

After the leader finished speaking, there was another commotion in the crowd, and then hundreds of people came out, all of them were together, kneeling together, without speaking, just kneeling, their hands tightly The clenched hands have already explained everything, they all have the same purpose as that woman, they are entrusted to their own children or elderly parents.

They all know what the consequences will be after the entrustment, but it is still the case.

The entrusted people also knew what the consequences would be, so they all shook their heads with tears in their faces.

Xiao Tong looked at this group of people who suddenly understood the deep meaning of war better. In addition to the grief in his heart, he felt ironic. The people in power enjoy the tax payment of the people, but after failing to fulfill their responsibilities, what they face is the people kneeling Begging for the chance to live in exchange for one life!

"Please hurry up! I, Mo Li, can't bear your kneeling. If I am not a marshal now, if I am just an ordinary soldier, I should kneel down and beg for your forgiveness! It's just that at this moment I As a marshal, what I should do is not this, what I should do is to defeat Qi and save everyone." Mo Li's fists were tightly clenched, and his eyes were full of bloodthirsty ruthlessness.

After he finished speaking, he turned around slowly and looked at the army behind him, with majesty and arrogance all over his body, looking at his army with a killing spirit.

The soldiers behind them didn't speak, but the murderous intent in their eyes represented everything. They bowed deeply to the group of kneeling people consciously.

After a while, he straightened up and got on his horse without saying a word. With a wave of his hand, Mo Li walked around the group of people.

Xiao Tong just watched, then went to help those kneeling people, Mo Li followed along, a group of people looked at the soldiers who walked past, hesitated to speak, and finally gave up talking with grief on their faces.

They also knew that going on like this is not the answer, and the best solution is to drive away the Qi people, otherwise it will never be the end, so they struggled, but in the end they were all rational and silent.

The soldiers walked past in neat steps. At this time, all the kneeling people stood up, and their expressions were calmer. After all, they had made such a choice.
