It was already late at night, and more than half of An Yougui's more than 500 personal soldiers were broken, and the rest of the surrenderers were tied up in the forbidden place of the old Tang Chang'an Palace by the black-faced army, which had already been burned down in several wars. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Another seven or eight hundred city defense soldiers who surrendered were also taken here......

The black-faced army had few casualties, and Zhao Siwan stood proudly on the pedestal of the old Tang Palace, looking at these people. He waved his big hand, and then there were bursts of cries from far and near, all from the dependents of those city defense troops......

"Husband......

"Son......"

After a while, the last team of black-faced cavalry generals who pursued An Yougui also returned, and there was a tied military man sitting right away, Zhao Siwan walked over to take a look, but this person was Zhao Pu.

"Yu Jieshuai, this person has been wandering around the northeast gate, and he suspected that he had betrayed us, and let go of An Yougui and Qincha others, so he took him down!"

Zhao Siwan said with a smile: "Good job, there will be a reward when you look back." ”

The bound soldiers let out bursts of angry scolding, and Zhao Siwan closed his eyes and listened carefully, as if he was distinguishing what sentence they were scolding. He frowned vigorously, until a cry suddenly broke out in the scolding of the military man, his eyebrows suddenly relaxed, and he slapped his palm with his fist:

"That's right, that's what I want! This cry has to come from anger first, pass through the door, change the tone, and then it will sound good......" He frowned again: "It's a pity that it's too little." ”

Zhao Siwan greeted his cronies: "Chang Yanqing! Come here, hurry up, and ask you something! ”

Chang Yanqing said: "Just ask!" ”

Zhao Siwan was very helpful when he heard the words Jieshuai: "Once we heard a cook say, how is the pork, sheep and duck liver delicious?" ”

"Hui Jieshuai, that is the person who once cooked for Yelu Deguang, saying that if the pig and sheep are angry first and then sad, their liver is the most delicious."

"Hey...... It's a pity that we don't have such good cooks now, and we can't see how these beasts are angry and sad! Isn't it Chang Yanqing? ”

Without waiting for the other party to answer, he suddenly laughed strangely, pointed to the bound soldiers and said, "It's just a human ...... You can see it! ”

With his order, the family members of the first city defender on the left have been pushed up by the black-faced pawn. The city guards looked immature, obviously a new recruit, and by this time they had already cried into tears.

"Do you want to save your wife and children?" Zhao Siwan said with a wicked smile.

"Please...... Please spare us......"

Zhao Siwan heard the word "Dutou" and said angrily: "You are so bold, you dare to call me Dutou?" Come on, cut it for me! ”

There was a scream in my ears, and the soldier's liver had been ripped out by the military judge.

Zhao Siwan stretched out a hand, held the bloody liver with a smile, and sent it to the soldier's wife:

"Little beauty, this thing is very replenishing, take a bite and taste it, and I will spare you.

Seeing that the young woman was crying and didn't answer, he put on a straight face: "The so-called husband is the wife, if you don't eat it, it will dislike your husband, hum...... So you say, do you deserve to die? ”

The woman trembled with fear, and finally took a bite out of her tears.

"Good! Shrewd! Zhao Siwan laughed, and beckoned a few soldiers, "Circumvent this little beauty's life, let her have a good time with you." ”

Hearing the woman's frightened screams, several smiling soldiers pulled the woman down...... Many of the captives and their families wept again......

Zhao Siwan often breathed a sigh of relief, he paced again to appreciate the cry, and after a while, he continued: "Chang Yanqing, it's still the old way. ”

Chang Yanqing shouted to obey the order, and then shouted: "Zhang Jiucai, you bring a few subordinates...... Among the people who were tied, all those who had just cried and begged for mercy were loosened by me! Their families were also picked out from the crowd! Those who have been scolding me continue to tie me up! ”

When these people saw a group of black-faced soldiers coming over to untie themselves, they were secretly lucky, but they suddenly pulled out the dagger at their waist and plunged it into their hearts......

Then there was an exclamation, and the family members who were picked out, regardless of their age, were also in a different place in an instant, and only a few good-looking women were crying and being dragged away by the black-faced military man......

"I heard clearly, Zhao Shuai and his old man are going to be gracious, and the rest of the people and all those who sincerely belong will not die."

At this time, Zhao Pu was still tied up and sitting on the ground, and he had been watching coldly since just now. Of course, Zhao Pu understands that if he stupidly speaks out to stop it at this time, it will be useless, and it will only lead the other party to kill him first, and those people will still die.

He also finally figured out the secret of the black face......

It turned out that whenever the black-faced army raided and robbed houses, they would often arrest all the men in the village and threaten to slaughter them. At this time, the cowardly are seen as useless, and the whole family is to be killed, while those who are still resentful and scolding are absorbed into the army.

Originally, these people would be angry when they saw the villagers on weekdays ruined, but after all, in the bloody comparison - the whole family of others died, but they were fortunate to survive, people's psychology is like this, with such an experience, they may follow Zhao Siwan with all their hearts and join the team of killing and setting fire.

In this way, Zhao Yanshou and Zhao Kuangzan delivered enough food and salary to the red-faced army and replenished them with the strongest soldiers; The black-faced army is just the opposite, they are not enough to grab the food and pay themselves, and they are not enough to catch it themselves.

For the same elite combat power, the red face will encounter insufficient food or unfavorable combat conditions, which will reduce the combat power, especially after the Zhao family father and son left Yongxing. On the contrary, troops like the black-faced capital were able to survive tenaciously in a cruel environment.

"This is the logic of bastards in troubled times...... Zhao Pu thought to himself.

In this way, more than 800 Yongxing city defense troops were killed, more than 200 were killed, and the remaining 500 people were incorporated, and the black face capital was expanded to two capitals of 1,000 each. The rest of the more than 300 soldiers of An Yougui were all locked up in livestock pens by Zhao Siwan, and they had to be fed with pigs and sheep, and when there was a shortage of food, they would be slaughtered at any time to make meat strips for military use.

Zhao Siwan personally pulled out his dagger and slowly walked to Zhao Pu's side.

"Inspector Zhao," Zhao Siwan said with a smile: "Your heart and liver, I will personally dissect it." ”

Zhao Pu sneered: "I don't know what to do!" You'd better go back and be your boss, and you can save a little life. ”

The other party was silent for a moment, and suddenly put the knife back into its sheath, he walked to Zhao Pu's side and sat side by side with him:

"You are really annoying, the heart and liver of a person with a strange yin and yang are the most bitter and unpalatable."

Seeing that Zhao Pu not only didn't answer, but also looked uneven, Zhao Siwan had to ask again: "You said that I don't know what to do, what does that mean?" ”

"Zhao Shuai, you can think back, why did Wang Jingchong come to the northwest on the order of the first emperor?"

"Because the little captain and Hou Yi secretly communicated with Meng Shu."

"yes, so what's the end of these two now?"

"Well......" Zhao Siwan nodded, "Hou Yi actually became Kaifeng Yin, and the little lieutenant became the duke." ”

Zhao Pu heard him put the word "unexpectedly" very seriously, and obviously he had always been puzzled by this matter.

Zhao Pu stretched out his index finger and said: "That's because, first, stabilizing these two people can be shown to other northwestern feudal towns now, so that they feel that the imperial court wants to stabilize them and doesn't want to tear their faces with them; Zhao Pu stretched out a second finger: "Second, that's because Hou Yi and Zhao Kuangzan didn't do things perfectly, that is to say, although they had correspondence with the Shu people, they neither gave up their own territory, nor did they help the Shu army to fight other states and counties." ”

Zhao Siwan nodded: "At the beginning, they didn't move, neither helping the Shu army to fight, nor helping the court to fight, until Wang Jingchong led the elite of the forbidden army to Fengxiang, they judged that it was more certain to follow the court, so they helped Wang Jingchong to fight the battle of Meridian Valley!" ”

Zhao Pu also nodded and said, "That's right!" Zhao Shuai thought about An Yougui and Qiao Shouwen again, if we hijacked these two people, would the court feel sorry for them? Do you feel like a rat trap? ”

Zhao Siwan shook his head: "No, An Yougui and Qiao Shouwen were originally the people of the little captain, and the court wished that they would die early." ”

"Yes, the court doesn't care about them, so it's useless for us to hold on. Although Chang'an is already in our hands, neither Wang Jingchong nor Li Shouzhen has expressed their willingness to unite with us. So it's not okay to kill An and Qiao, after all, the act of slaughtering the imperial court generals is a desperate thing. ”

Zhao Siwan let out a long sigh of relief: "I understand!" If Li Shouzhen and Wang Jingchong care about us, let's go to them and ask for Yongxing to take the throne; On the contrary, they don't care about us, so we will simply wait for Guo Wei to personally lead the forbidden soldiers and horses to help him fight Li Shouzhen, so this Yongxing Festival envoy is still in my pocket, and I can go to the court to receive it. ”

"That's right, the festival commander is wise," Zhao Pu gave a thumbs up, "So just now, the subordinates didn't let them go, but respectfully invited them out of the city and left a way back for Zhao Shuai." ”

Zhao Siwan suddenly stared at his eyes, with a smiling expression on his face.

"Okay," Zhao Siwan yawned and stood up, took out a dagger again, and cut the hemp rope on Zhao Pu's body,

"I've eaten enough liver today, and I'm tired of killing, so keep your life first."

Seeing Zhao Siwan turn his back and walk away slowly, Zhao Pu's eyes suddenly turned red, and he said in his heart: "Since you have your back to me, now you snatch it and pull out the dagger to take your dog's life, so what?" ”

However, looking at the black-faced army around him, he calmed down again: "This person has to exchange his life with me like this, I'm afraid he won't be worthy of ......."
