It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 695

There are many people in Toad City, for Cheng Dalei, they are actually far and near. Speaking of it, the first group of people who came out of Qingniu Mountain were naturally closer, and they all rolled and climbed out of the dead. After joining, the relationship is slightly distant, and some people have never even seen Cheng Dalei's face.

There are more than 30,000 elite soldiers and many civil and military officials, many of whom Cheng Dalei knows. But Cheng Dalei really knew about Sun Xiaomao.

He was not very young. When he followed Cheng Dalei, he was only seventeen or eighteen years old. He had grown into a man in recent years. He is an ancestral bandit, his parents and grandfather are bandits, and his father died in the battle between Qingniu Mountain and the Rong tribe.

Cheng Dalei's clenched fist slowly loosened, and after that, he sighed deeply, and then he began to feel that this matter was not easy to handle.

Young and energetic, fighting with all his head, playing a woman here after breaking the city is really nothing. But he did violate the military discipline set by Cheng Dalei, harassed the female family members, and executed them.

It is also beneficial to kill him. Let the people of Liangzhou see that he is a master of the law and loves his people like a son. In this way, you can harvest a wave of people's hearts.

The problem is that Cheng Dalei doesn't think about it either. Most of his men are bandits and desperate desperadoes. Although Cheng Dalei strictly controls the army and trains them to be banned. But it's hard to ask too much of them ethically.

After all, after the city was broken, even Cheng Dalei captured flawless beauties like Cui Baiyu, and Zhang Fei, Gao Feibao and others also participated in dividing the spoils. A soldier like Sun Xiaomao certainly wouldn't have his share, but he couldn't just allow state officials to set fires and people to light lamps.

To kill him, in exchange for people's hearts. Or let him go, for his dead father.

Cheng Dalei suddenly felt embarrassed. He is not a saint, and he has the mind to help the world. His own view of good and evil is actually very vague, but not killing him, how to convince the public, and how to appease the people of Liangzhou.

Cheng Dalei sighed and suddenly realized that he had become like a hero, and had to make a choice between people's hearts and affection.

Su Ying stretched out her hand, smoothed his frown, and said, "Is it difficult to do?"

Cheng Dalei smiled bitterly and nodded lightly.

"I have a way, but I don't know if I should say it or not." Su Ying.

Cheng Dalei coughed: "There are no outsiders here, you and I are not outsiders, there is nothing we can't talk about."

Su Ying said slowly, "If you think it's difficult, just pretend you don't know about this matter, and let Wu Yong be the villain, and it won't hurt your brotherhood."

Cheng Dalei held Su Ying's wrist and said, "I just didn't know what to do, kill or not kill. But if I decide to kill, this wicked person can't let others do it for me."

Su Ying pursed her lower lip, patted the back of Cheng Dalei's hand, and said, "I said the wrong thing."

What Cheng Dalei is embarrassed about is not whether to be this wicked person or not, but that he can't get over this juncture in his heart. This time, Sun Xiaomao can be killed if he makes a mistake, but if it is someone like Gao Feihu, Gao Feibao, or Xu Shenji who makes a mistake, it's not a good person to see how these people usually do things, and it's not uncommon to do such dirty things. Are you still willing to kill yourself...

Of course, they are very important to themselves, and they share the love of life and death. But the spoiled woman is also very important to her family.

Although the soldiers in Cheng Dalei's hands are fierce, they are not really kind. Sun Xiaomao's matter can be dealt with more slowly, but the problem of the quality of the soldiers must be solved.

Cheng Dalei picked up the pen on the table and re-written two words.

training.

The dragon and snake are still drawn like ghosts, but Su Ying has understood the murderous aura.

There was someone outside, and Wu Yong asked to see him. Cheng Dalei's civil and military officers are not allowed to enter the backyard of the city lord's mansion without authorization.

Cheng Dalei met Wu Yong in the study. The boy was very embarrassed, with disheveled hair and bruises on his face.

"What's the matter, it's like this?" Cheng Dalei was in a bad mood, and he spoke with a straight face.

"That... General Zhang wanted to take Sun Xiaomao away, but I contradicted him a couple of times, that's how it is."

"What?" Cheng Dalei's eyelids jumped, and his face was gloomy: "Take me to see."

Zhang Fei wanted to protect Sun Xiaomao, and Wu Yong wanted to kill him. Now that Sun Xiaomao is being held in the prison of the City Lord's Mansion, Zhang Fei still thinks it is safer to be locked in his own camp. Wu Yong, who was in charge, naturally refused, so the two sides started to fight.

Cheng Dalei rushed to the prison in a rage, feeling extremely bad. It's not just because of Zhang Fei's nonsense, but some other things.

The power of Toad City is getting bigger and bigger, and it is no longer the days when there is no tomorrow. And the contradiction between military generals and civil officials became more and more obvious. Zhang Fei dared to do this, not necessarily without the intention of taking credit for himself. As for Wu Yong's embarrassment, it's not necessarily caused by Zhang Fei. He could not have deliberately dressed up pitifully to arouse his anger.

They are all human hearts, they are all calculations, and they are all... they are all bastards.

The City Lord's Mansion was not far from the prison, and Cheng Dalei arrived within a few steps, seeing the lobby turned into a pot of porridge.

A few generals and a few civil servants quarreled.

"Where were you when Lao Tzu fought desperately, not at the hands of the enemy, but at the hands of your own brothers, that's the truth."

A group of reckless men shouted in a mess, all bloody men with loud voices, especially Zhang Fei, who was murderous and powerful.

Suddenly, all sounds disappeared, and the lobby became very quiet. Someone had found Cheng Dalei at the door, with his head down and trembling.

Cheng Dalei swept his eyes coldly, and then patted his palm lightly: "So majestic, so murderous, is General Zhang going to kill here?"

Zhang Fei was shocked and said, "My subordinates don't dare."

Cheng Dalei walked past the crowd and sat down behind the desk. Looking at the scene in the hall, the general knew he had made a mistake and bowed his head silently. The civil servants thought they had a backer, so they raised their chests and raised their heads, and even the corners of Wu Yong's mouth twitched.

Cheng Dalei's hand was already raised, and he didn't know how to drop it. If the punishment is too heavy, it will encourage the arrogance of the civil servants, and if the punishment is too light, it will make Zhang Fei and others even worse.

All need to calculate, all need to grasp the scale.

A deep feeling of exhaustion came up from the bottom of my heart, and Cheng Dalei's raised hand waved weakly: "Let's go, let's go."

The fist was raised high and lowered gently. Zhang Fei and the others looked at each other, but they also sensed Cheng Dalei's unhappiness, and stepped back wisely.

Wu Yong and others were also confused. Could it be that Cheng Dalei was really afraid of the military forces and didn't even give a serious word.

Only Cheng Dalei was alone in the chair, and there were many people around him, but he was like a loner.
