Volume 2 Ember Chapter 86 Eradication of Dissidents
"He's gone......" After a long time, someone in the group muttered quietly.
Yan Yitu paced back and forth, sometimes looking up at the sky that was about to darken.
The entire Liesun City was already within reach, and only Ning Ye's isolated old wolf was left in front of him.
"You know, when people experience death, they are very afraid. But Yi Yu has been fighting for many years, and he has long forgotten his fears, he is a warrior who walks on the tip of a sword. Yan Yitu looked back at the regrouped Wolf Gu team, "But if I give him a chance to live, then he will be afraid of death again." No matter how calm a person is, there will still be a moment of Zhang Huang. And that moment was enough to shake him. ”
"Do you know, my soldiers? As my subordinate of Yan Yitu, then you should always regard me as an obedient master. Instead of the foolish choice to disobey my orders and try to do something against me! You don't understand any of this! ”
The guards standing beside Yan Yitu suddenly raised their arms and roared, "Wolf Gu Nineteen, out of the ranks!" Wolf Gu Fourteen, out of the ranks! ”
Hearing this, more than 20 wolf Gu soldiers quickly walked out of the team and stood respectfully in the designated position, most of their faces were filled with vague joy, and they decided that Yan Yitu was going to reward them in public.
"All on your knees!" The guards commanded loudly again.
"Kneel...... Under? Several soldiers hesitated for a moment, but they were violently pressed down by the people behind them.
Behind each of the soldiers stood an old soldier who was wolf-friendly. The old soldiers pressed down the soldiers they were responsible for, and the swords in their sheaths slowly came out of their sheaths.
"Director! What are you doing! The soldier who was questioned by Yan Yitu shouted as hard as he could, but as soon as the words fell, his head was kicked down by the soldier behind him.
"Su Xun, whose fault is this?" Yan Yitu quietly looked at the more than twenty soldiers who were restrained on the ground, but the cruelty between his words pointed directly at the guards around him.
"It's the fault of his subordinates...... The subordinates failed to discover these remnants at the first time, which was indeed negligence. They shouldn't have disobeyed your orders. Su Xun bowed deeply, "I implore you to surrender!" ”
"Wait, I'm just asking you...... Whose fault is this, why did you surrender your identity so much? Yan Yitu smiled silently, "I remember that you were also the director of the department before." Which one is it? ”
"Yudu Tong, it's the fifth part." Su Xun was slightly stunned.
"You would choose to surrender to me, which I never expected. I've never told you about it, and you know a thing or two from the beginning, and that's enough for me to take it seriously, isn't it? Su Xun, I have never treated you as my subordinate, and do you want to make a decent decision? Or I can ask you so. Yan Yitu no longer looked at Su Xun, but paced towards the more than twenty soldiers who were kneeling.
"Do you want to follow me, betray Wolf Gu Si, and betray the Marquis of Guangcai? You have to realize that the enemy we are facing is not just Ning Ye, but Guang Cai. Even the steely warrior king. Yan Yitu's eyes seemed to be hiding red-hot coal.
"The subordinates still have insufficient qualifications, and you are interested in promoting me, so it is understandable for the subordinates to make this kind of decision. And I used to be a resident of Lotin City, and I once joined the Wolf Gu as a general, so I had the intention of defecting. ”
"So...... Susund, go kill these kneeling prisoners and cut off their heads yourself with your hands! Yan Yitu took out the war knife in his sheath and threw it at Su Xun's feet.
"Kill them!?"
Su Xun was stunned for a long time, his eyes moving with the bloody sword. If he had ordered the warriors to hang themselves, they might not have raised their swords and cut off their necks.
These immature samurai were directly subordinate to his subordinates, and they treated him as a big brother. He originally thought that Yan Yitu just wanted to teach them a lesson, but Yan Yitu's murderous nature was more than he expected. Now that Yan Yitu ordered him to kill these subordinates, how could he do it. He crouched down with difficulty, gripping the hilt of the knife that was still warm.
"They're just kids."
"Child?" Yan Yitu squatted in front of one of the soldiers, took out a short dagger, and clasped the soldier's jaw with the handle of the dagger, "They are all young people in their twenties, and they have all experienced battle, but they are a little immature." Why is it that in your mouth you become a child? ”
"Director...... Director...... I didn't betray you......" said the soldier who was held against his jaw, trembling, "I obey you, and I never thought of betraying the capital." ”
As soon as his words fell, the expression on his face froze, and it was the dagger in Yan Yitu's hand that was sent into his throat.
The rest of the kneeling soldiers suddenly stopped the confusion in their minds, their eyes widened in disbelief what they were seeing. After a very short time, almost all the soldiers went crazy and tried to break free from the old pawns who controlled them, trying to escape.
"Let me go! Let me go! I don't want to die! ”
The soldiers, who wailed like dying dogs, no longer had the dignity of a samurai, and yelled desperately, hoping that unknown people could save themselves.
"Can't you bear it? Because they were all your subordinates? ”
Yan Yitu pulled out a short dagger, and a blood mist that rushed straight into the sky erupted, and the corpse that could no longer struggle was truly deflated and fell to the ground. The veteran soldier behind him who was responsible for pinning down the soldier withdrew his sword and rejoined his team.
"They are all innocent, they are angry at your move to let Yi Yu go, and they are just following Ning Ye's orders, they don't know anything. It's all my responsibility, I should have told them in advance, if you really want to kill you, then kill me! Su Xun looked at the shriveled corpse, and his face was finally ugly.
Yan Yitu glanced back at Su Xun, strode in front of the rest of the prisoners, and waved his hand to the old soldiers to order, "Do it." ”
"Yes!" The soldiers replied loudly, the backs of their knives against the jaws of the prisoners in their hands moving in vain, and a terrifying white light emitted between the blades, slicing the throats of the samurai in an instant.
Your plan is already clear, so why kill them and cause unnecessary casualties? ”
"Is this your plan?" Beitang Sheng looked at the corpses of the warriors who had all their heads cut off, and retched a little, "Let Yi Yu go, and urge Ning Ye to intercept and kill him personally." ”
"It's a few points away." Yan Yitu whispered.
"But what if Ning Ye had already seen through your plan...... He's been waiting for you to show your fangs, and then he's going to kill you! ”
"It doesn't matter. One of the part of the plan, and my most critical helper, has already arrived from Martial Arts City. Even if Ning Ye found out about my rebellion, he wouldn't have a chance to kill me again. Not to mention...... Now the itinerary has moved forward to what I wanted. ”
The distant and hoarse shouting and selling slowly drifted from afar, and the sound through the wilderness was much faster than the hawkers. The blood-like afterglow reflected everyone's face, like a face full of blood. When he left, the morning light was still dawning. And now, it's past sunset.
The cries of selling are getting closer and closer, but they can be found, but they are nowhere to be found. At this moment, a small dot suddenly appeared in the direction of the city, and the speed of the small dot was not slow, but it was not fast.
Sikong Xi squinted his eyes and saw clearly the hawker who had arrived. It was an old man driving a donkey cart who was unhurried, and from his shouting, it could be vaguely known that this old man was a melon seller who went north out of the city to the military service. It's just that in this harsh winter season, what kind of melons can be harvested?
"A few generals, but are you going north to the military service?" The donkey cart finally came, and the old man raised his whip to stop the lazy donkey under his crotch.
Yi Yu stared at the things on the donkey cart covered with dark rags, a dozen round ones, just as the old man shouted, these were the few pumpkins that had been snatched up.
"Exactly." Yi Yu's eyes always wandered on the old man, and he was suspicious. The old man was wearing a black coat, but the small hood just covered most of his face. He bowed his body, making it more difficult for people to see the eyebrows hidden in the shadows, "It's just old man, why did you go out of the city to the north at dusk?" ”
"It's a sad day!" The old man's hoarse voice was like a "rustle" sound made by the wind blowing the leaves, which made people shudder when they heard it, but the rarely undulating tone always made Yi Yu a little inexplicably familiar.
"Having a hard time?" Sikong Xi's face was a little strange, "In this barren mountains and mountains, no matter how difficult life is, I don't sell melons in the city, but go out of the north of the city to go to the military service, isn't this asking for trouble?" ”
"Uncle, how do you sell this melon?" Yi Yu glanced at Sikong Xi and interrupted him with something to say.
The old man was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Yi Yu to ask the price of this melon, "This melon ...... But it took a lot of effort for the old man to take it back, and if you want to ask the price, what should it be...... Ten silver and one tael. ”
"The general...... Do you want to buy an old pumpkin? The old man stroked the round pumpkins with his hand, and a chapped smile flashed on his thin lips hidden under the hood.
"Ten silver!? Or is it just one or two? Sikong Xi whispered and slowly approached Yi Yu, "Director, do you really want to buy a pumpkin that doesn't even look real?" And...... In this harsh winter, even if it is a pumpkin, there will be no harvest......"
The distant and hoarse shouting and selling slowly drifted from afar, and the sound through the wilderness was much faster than the hawkers. The blood-like afterglow reflected everyone's face, like a face full of blood. When he left, the morning light was still dawning. And now, it's past sunset.

Yi Yu still stared at the old man without moving, his iron-blue face tensing his muscles. Gu Key leaned in front of the carriage, looking at the darkening sky in the distance, and his anxiety rolled up. He stepped forward and grabbed Sikong Xi, "You kid come over first." ”
"Yo, it's getting dark...... the old man took out a tube of candles from the groove on the donkey cart, gently wiped the match, and lit the wick with his hand to cover the subtle flames.
