Chapter 107: Loved Ones Are Saved
Today's third update, everyone doesn't have to worry about eunuchs, hehehe, so that you can rest assured that you can collect this book and add it to the bookshelf. Thank you, if you have a VIP ticket, you can continue to smash it to the naked run to explode more)
Outside the southern city, there were dead and wounded everywhere, and the closer they got to the city walls, the more they were.
Above the city wall, countless broken ladders leaned crookedly there, and under the city wall, there were stacks of dead corpses, and the blood was still bubbling under those corpses, slowly merging into the dark red lake, and the wounded were still wailing there.
Messy and broken swords and spears were everywhere, and the white feathers of thatch-like feathered arrows fluttered and trembled in the evening breeze.
There were no more troops on the battlefield, only some old and weak people who had lost their loved ones were roaming through the pile of dead bodies, hoping to confirm the news of their loved ones. Several women were weeping quietly around a corpse, and the heart-wrenching tones drifted slowly in the flickering evening breeze, which would be more sad than the other sounds.
There were also shouts of surprise, that is, someone had found their relatives, so everyone picked up their relatives in the pile of dead people, checked their injuries, and then happily carried them back to the empty camp.
No one to manage this, no one to arrange for the treatment and burial of these dead or wounded, just let the warriors fall in the bloody wilderness and slowly turn into dry bones.
The Allies have all entered the city, where there are mountains of grain and grass, mountains of gold and silver, endless silk objects, where is there anyone who cares about this dead brother?
Lu Shi frowned, looking at this desolate and miserable scene, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.
"Sir, what shall we do?" Wang Xiao asked, and continued: "Why don't you go back and find the third uncle to send someone to restrain you?" The child's heart is still kind, and he also sees the military advisor's intolerance.
Lu Shi thought about it, shook his head with difficulty and sighed, "Let's leave it alone." ”
"Why? This is not in line with the gentleman's temperament. Wang Xiao was very surprised by Mr. 's decision.
Lu Shi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Some things, people can not want them, but you can't pick them up, just like now, people can ignore the dead and injured, but if I take care of it, then there is a suspicion of buying people's hearts from other people's military revenues." ”
All the people were silent for a while, and things in the world were not the same? Things in the world are so helpless, this lesson was learned and understood when Lu Shi put the sword on his neck without sticking to the mud.
But looking at the abandoned wounded all over the ground, I really felt a burst of heartache, and secretly thought that I must have a suitable opportunity to negotiate with the non-muddy and other poles to contain these dead and wounded.
The deceased is buried in the ground, this is the nature of the difference between humans and animals, and the treatment of the injured is the difference between humans and animals, the most important thing, if you don't get mud and so on, don't you just give yourself a chance?
You must know that these men who have really died once and seen bloody battles are a real veteran and will become the backbone in the next battle.
The difference between a recruit and a veteran is that no matter how a recruit is trained, as long as he has not been in battle, he is still a newcomer, a showman, and once he fights, he has experience and the spirit of ignoring life and death, which is the soul of a team in the future.
"Okay, since everyone has already entered the city, let's go into the city and have a look, I hope we don't go too far."
There was no patrol guard at the gate of the city, and all the people who could move about ran into the city to make a fortune, and the city gate was so wide open, if there was an elite army to kill, it would not take anything to do at all, and it would be easy to kill into the city and snatch back the county town of Mizhi that had just been obtained with countless lives.
Entering through the open city gate, facing the main street of Mizhi City, on both sides of the street is a piece of originally prosperous and lively merchants and shops, now they are all closed, not a little angry, those bosses and guys are already trembling cats in the bed, waiting for the judgment of fate, the streets are running back and forth are groups of poles, with a pair of greedy blood-red eyes peeping around.
However, there was no burning, killing and looting as Lu Shi imagined, the order was very strict, and when you looked closely, there were teams of sturdy poles patrolling back and forth, maintaining order, and those excessive poles were a leather whip, and some of the looting shops were simply cut with a knife, without mercy.
This is a big surprise from Lu Shi, I originally thought that the pole would enter the city and not loot it on a large scale? It can't be said to be a catastrophe, but I didn't expect it to be the result.
Lu Shi couldn't help but secretly rejoice for those people, and his heart was a little more settled, it seems that this is not a teacher of benevolence and righteousness.
Stopped a pole squad and asked about the situation.
As soon as the feelings of the west city were broken, the officers and soldiers of the southern city saw that the general trend had gone, and they lost their swords and guns, and scattered the birds and beasts, these people were all signing the people, and they lost their swords and guns and went back to their respective homes, and everyone could not tell who was the mortal enemy and who was the people, so the coalition army opened the city gate and came in, and the alliance leader ordered the overseer team to maintain order, and not let the people in the city run around, nor did they allow their brothers to loot privately, and there was no forgiveness for private looting.
After the alliance leader finished giving the order, he rushed to the granary treasury with a large group of men and horses. Lu Shi thanked the team, and with Wang Xiao and his own soldiers, he did not rush to the granary of the Mizhi Mansion, but directly rushed to the Mizhi Prison.
The rice fat prison has long been deprived of guards, and the tables in the signing room are crooked, and the pots and bowls are all over the floor, and it is a mess
Lu Shi was so anxious that he took a few brothers who were originally stationed in Bingshan and threw himself directly into the prison.
The cell door was locked, and he didn't care about looking for the key, so he found a bloodstained sledgehammer and smashed open the gloomy cell door a few times.
Lu Shi was already anxious, where to care about that, shouted: "Get out of the way," pushed away everyone and rushed in directly, and everyone hurriedly followed when they saw this.
As soon as he entered the prison, a disgusting stench of nausea came to his face, making people dizzy, Lu Shi didn't care about it, and he didn't cover his mouth and nose, so he threw himself into a gloomy prison door, holding the iron fence with both hands, sticking his face tightly to the iron fence, looking anxiously inside, and shouting loudly while watching: "Zhang Da, Zhang Er, Lu Shi is here to save you." ”
There was no movement in the gloomy and dark cell because of Lu Shi's shouts, and it was lifeless, allowing Lu Shi's anxious shouts to echo and hover there.
It's not that there is no one in the prison, on the dark ground, there is a messy wheat straw and grass, a musty smell, and the people who rush are dizzy for a while, and if you look closely, all of them are huddled and leaning on in the wheat straw and grass, but they are just human shapes. With Lu Shi's shouting, one or two moved occasionally, and then there was still no follow-up.
Lu Shi's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he shouted to the brother who followed behind him with a crying voice: "What are you waiting for, hurry up and light the torch and smash open the prison door." ”
Only then did the pro-soldiers react to such a tragic situation, someone found a fire breaker, lit the torch lantern on the black wall, and one of the pro-soldiers used a sledgehammer in his hand to smash the blood-stained lock again.
Lu Shi waited for the lock to smash open, and without saying a word, pushed the door and entered.
The smell in the cell was even more unbearable, and the entire cell was filled with the smell of human feces, urine and thick blood, which made people unbearable for a while, but Lu Shi didn't care about this, bent down, and rummaged through them one by one,
In the grass and wheat straw, there are more than 30 people, these 30 people are recorded in a place of more than a dozen square meters, and they can't go out to and pee, the tragic situation can be imagined, in this late autumn season, the temperature in the cell also made Lu Shi sweat profusely at this time, and when he rummaged, there were maggots rolling down on his body.
Look at those so-called people, all of them are unkempt, only a skeleton with a leather bag left, if it weren't for the occasional turn of those cloudy and numb eyes when they are turned, it would be a skeleton dead man at all.
No, there are no Zhang brothers here. Lu Shi stood up in disappointment, walked out in a few steps, and said to the brother who followed behind: "Hurry up and carry these people who are still alive out of the cell and send them outside to breathe." ”
Those brothers were also stunned by the tragic situation of this cell, and they were ordered by Lu Shi to ignore the mess, and you carried me to the courtyard to bring those dying people to the courtyard, so that they could see the sun.
For those who die in the cell, they can only be left to rot.
When Lu Shi was rectifying himself, he took the big man with a hammer in his hand, and broke into the door one by one, all of them were bloodstained and all of them were miserable.
When Lu Shi was in one of the rooms and finally found the Zhang brothers, the two boys had long lost their human form, if it weren't for their faint call to the master, Lu Shi wouldn't have been able to identify it at all, this was the two children who were created by a full summer of food, dragon spirit and tiger fierceness.
Lu Shi hurriedly took off his clothes, wrapped their scarred bodies so indiscriminately, and then muttered comfort: "It's okay, it's all over, everything is fine, okay, let's go out." But the tears couldn't stop flowing, salty and salty.
In the courtyard, the brothers of the Zhang family, who saw the light of day, and the villagers who were arrested in the garrison mountain together, really had the feeling of being human in two lives, greedily breathing the fresh air outside, and greedily capturing the warmth of the sun's afterglow.
Lu Shi found a few clothes, and then found a few basins of warm water, and carefully wiped the scarred bodies of the Zhang brothers.
The Zhang brothers, who had recovered some popularity, asked, "Master, how much money did you summon to save these people from prison outside?" Those dog officials can be embarrassed with you? The voice was weak, but the concern was palpable.
Lu Shi smiled bitterly: "I'm not the same as you? Isn't there anything you don't have to do yet? This time, thanks to your Uncle Zhao, I begged the brothers of Woniu Mountain to conquer the county seat to save you and save so many villagers. ”
I thought that when I heard the news, the Zhang brothers and other conscious people would be shocked, but I didn't expect that not only were these people not surprised, but they were all excited and addicted.
The Zhang brothers even came to the spirit and wanted to ask about the process, but Lu Shi smiled and said: "Don't worry about everything, rest assured." ”
But Zhang Erlang was careful, looked left and right, couldn't see his father, and said anxiously: "Master, why didn't my father and mother come?" ”
When Lu Shi was asked, his expression darkened, and the towel in his hand couldn't help but fall into the basin, but he quickly picked it up and comforted him: "My brother and my sister-in-law, they are old, and they can't do this thing of fighting and killing, and they are left in the garrison mountain to greet the logistics of the brothers, I will send you to the barracks first, raise your body briefly, and then send your brother and others back to reunite with your father." ”
That Zhang Erlang just looked at Lu Shi, smiled hard, closed his eyes and didn't speak again, the originally well-behaved and innocent child has grown up a lot in just ten days.
Lu Shi didn't dare to stay here any longer, for fear that he would not be able to control one of them, so he told them the bad news, so he hurriedly stood up and arranged for a few soldiers to quickly find people and carts, and sent these brothers and people back to the barracks for resettlement, and at the same time notified that there were family members in the county town to come and pick up the others.
I'm not afraid of misplacing the bad guys, looking at the appearance of this place, 100% of them are poor people, once they have a little money and power, where are they still waiting here to die?
After arranging these, Lu Shicai was relieved, and this calculation and planning was finally completed, so he took Wang Xiao and rushed to the warehouse to make peace with the mud.
