The remnant sun is like blood. 〕］．〕８〉

The cold wind howls.

Snowflakes fluttered in the wind and fell one after another, as if trying to cover up the horrific killing.

The nine people looked at each other, hesitantly bent down to pick up the long knife on the ground, and at the moment when they picked up the knife, more than a dozen flint guns were aimed at them at the same time.

"If you want to live, kill him, quick!"

Li Guo was a little impatient. Other teams have already completed the first round and started the second round draw, and his team is the slowest to progress.

Under his coercion, the captives began to slowly approach Wan Duofu on the ground, their hands trembling, and it seemed that it was difficult to start.

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Da Li, you were almost hit by the guns of the official army yesterday, but I pushed you to survive until now! As the existing man approached him, Wan Duofu jumped up nervously, gasping for air, staring at the long knives raised in the hands of his companions, begging for mercy, trying to convince his companions not to kill him.

The captive named Da Li was stunned when he heard this, his face twitched, and the hand holding the knife trembled.

"If he wants to live, he has to die! Otherwise you will die! ”

Li Guo knew that he couldn't hesitate any longer, and if he dragged it any longer, even if the general didn't say anything, the other comrades would question it, so he took another step forward, and the demonic roar threatened the captive soldiers to act immediately.

The more people who are afraid of death, the more desperate they are to go crazy in order to live, and in the miserable howls around them, the captives know that they have no choice.

Ten draws are very suitable in terms of probability, and it seems that the probability is not high, but in fact, when you think about it, it is definitely not low. Therefore, when people draw lots, they will be extremely nervous (if it is too low, it will not be nervous, and if it is too high, it will not be nervous), and this psychology is the first wave of deterrence.

At the same time, it is inevitable that the person who smokes will hope that other teammates will draw it, and then when this person is relieved, when the comrades who really get along day and night are drawn, the mixed emotions of guilt, luck, pain and self-blame will become the second wave of strong deterrence.

In the face of life and death, people are selfish, and when the death of others can be exchanged for their own lives, even the most kind person will not hesitate to raise the knife in his hand - even if it is to cut at his former close comrades.

Hu Yiniu gritted his teeth, staggered a few steps forward, waved his long knife at Wan Duofu, and shouted at the eight people: "If he doesn't die, we will die!" Let's do it, everyone! ”

"No, no, no! Don't kill me! Hu Yiniu, we are all from the same village...... Have you forgotten, three years ago, your father was so sick that he couldn't get up, and I secretly took some medicine out, so your father didn't die...... You can't be ungrateful! Please, please, please don't kill me......," Wan Duofu pleaded incoherently.

Hu Yiniu's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I haven't forgotten, but if you don't die, we all have to die!" ”

The captive soldier who was the first to draw the long lot immediately shouted: "Yes! We can't live if you don't die! Without any further hesitation, he raised his knife and slashed at Wan Duofu.

Wan Duofu panicked, instinctively turned around and ran, but Hu Yiniu raised his knife with red eyes and slashed him, hitting him in the shoulder.

Blood splattered out, spraying all over Hu Yiniu's body, on his face, eyebrows, nose, and mouth, wet and fishy.

Wan Duofu screamed in pain, he covered his arms and begged for mercy in pain: "Don't kill me, don't kill me!" ......”

The captives who saw the blood did not stop, and they followed. Soon, the second and third knives were slashed one after another. I don't know which knife was fatal, and soon Wan Duofu fell in a pool of blood, and his body continued to twitch.

The captives looked at the ground in horror, their hands trembling violently, and the blood that came to their faces made them tremble, and Wan Duofu's convulsive bodies pounded their hearts.

If I am the one who wins the lot, I will be the one lying on the ground!

Reaching out and probing Wan Duofu's nose to confirm that he was dead, he nodded at Li Guo.

"He's dead, you're alive!"

Li Guo's voice was like a block of ice, but no one felt the excitement of the rest of his life.

The smash was carried out quickly, and the four hundred and eighteen captives who had won the death lot were beheaded by their companions, and the smell of fresh blood wafted through the air. Their blood was still flowing in the snow, reflecting a blinding red.

The corpses were moved together, piled up in blood, and the lucky captives were forced to stand there and watch. The three thousand seven hundred and sixty-two people, all of them seemed to have gone through a cycle of purgatory, collapsed and powerless, and their hearts were filled with not only shock, fear, but also awe.

Mo Li rode a tall black horse, came to these captives, and said loudly: "This is a process of rebirth, in the future, you will no longer be rebels, not thieves, but part of my new Liao army!" If you're brave enough, I promise you'll earn everything you deserve! ”

All the captives listened in silence, without saying anything, or that they were numb and had not yet recovered from the slaughter.

"I know that you must hate me, because I have put you through this torment of life and death, and have stained your hands with the blood of your companions.

But I tell you, this is the punishment for joining the rebels and causing trouble to the people! Maybe you feel wronged, but many of you don't have blood on your hands, or maybe you don't want to, but when the rebels come, why don't you resist? Because you don't have urine! You can't protect yourselves, you can't protect your families! You don't deserve to be a man! Mo Li said coldly.

More than three thousand captives bowed their heads with complicated expressions.

"In this troubled world, no one will pity you, no one will pity you! It's a cruel world! If you want to live, you have to show courage! Now that you are my subordinates, I will lead you to fight for the right to live!

The state has its own laws, the army has military regulations, and from now on, you must absolutely obey the orders of this general! Remember, it's unconditional! Otherwise, I will let you know that there will always be something more terrible than death! Mo Li said expressionlessly.

More than 3,000 captives were reorganized into four infantry battalions, from which a group of honest and reliable prisoners were selected as grassroots officers, and after a short training with the soldiers of the New Liao Army, they were about to be pulled to the Dengzhou battlefield.

Hu Yiniu was also elected as a general manager.

At dusk, his subordinates were busy reorganizing the captives and camping to rest.

At this time, Ma Jinzhong came over happily, and said with a fluttering eyebrow: "General! Good news! Good news! ”

"What's the good news? Seeing that you are happy to be like this, could it be that you have picked up a big beauty? Moli quipped.

"Ahem, no, the brothers under the last general have appeared where Pan Yanfei hid gold and silver!"

In an inconspicuous courtyard in the southwest corner of Putai County, Mo Li and the generals looked at the courtyard gate in front of them and asked suspiciously, "Is the thing here?" ”

Everyone looked carefully at the courtyard in front of them, this courtyard was not very large, nor was it big, I don't know how Pan Yanfei took a fancy to this courtyard as his treasure house, maybe he felt that the more inconspicuous the place, the safer.

"Yes, General, all the things that the thieves have stolen these days have been put in here." Fan Yuanlu, a rebel prisoner who led the way, hurriedly replied.

The gate of the courtyard was locked, Mo Li frowned and said, "Smash the door open and take a look!" ”

"Yes!" Fan Yuanlu hurriedly summoned a few companions to smash the door open.

Ma Jinzhong first took people in to inspect to prevent anyone inside. After confirming the safety, Mo Li, Guan Feng, Li Guo, Zhou Yuji and others rushed in.

This is a small farm yard with two main houses and four horizontal houses.

Ma Jinzhong led people to smash open the doors of the six rooms one by one, and unexpectedly, there were only some simple furniture in the two main rooms, and nothing else was there.

When he smashed into the first horizontal house on the left, Zhou Yuji kicked open the door of the house, and just raised his legs and walked in, when he suddenly lost his voice and exclaimed: "Oh my God! ”

When everyone heard the sound, they hurriedly ran over, and when they went in, they saw more than a dozen large iron-inlaid boxes, neatly stacked there, and there were some copper coins scattered on the ground, which were not much.

And Zhou Yuji stood in front of the outermost box, holding a pair of gold ingots in his hands, his eyes widening.

When everyone saw this, they all exclaimed in unison. It turned out that the box was full of yellow and clear gold ingots!

Mo Li held back the excitement in his heart, and hurriedly asked people to open the other boxes as well, and as expected, they were all filled with gold and silver!

Mo Li couldn't help but be overjoyed, it was the first time he had seen so much gold, silver and jewelry in two lifetimes. There was not so much gold and silver in Heiyun Village and Qinglong Village before, it seems that Huang Zhenlong and Kong Youde, Pan Yanfei and others still can't compare!

It is no wonder that Huang Zhenlong and Ba Laodao are just farmers who can't survive and gather in the mountains and forests to survive, and what they do is just robbing and robbing passing merchants, after all, the number is small, and the scope of activities is relatively limited.

And these rebels are like locusts crossing the border, where they pass, there are no tiles, just like the little devils in later generations sweeping, and the flow range is large, and the harvest will naturally be more.

Mo Li grabbed a few gold ingots and checked them in his hand, the weight was not light, each piece weighed a few taels. Judging from the volume of the box, the gold and silver inside should weigh 100 catties.

A box is 100 catties, more than 10 catties is more than 1,000 catties, that is, it is filled with silver, and there are as many as 10,000 taels, which is undoubtedly a huge wealth. What's more, each box contains a mixture of gold and silver, and it has not been robbed for a long time, and it has not had time to store it separately.

In addition, some of the boxes are piled up with various ornaments, and some of them even have blood stains on them. It is conceivable what kind of human tragedy the rebels had when they robbed these ornaments......
