Chapter 363: The Whispering in the Dream

Dozens of headless corpses lay in pools of blood, and the Luoyang army carried dozens of severed heads with bamboo poles and erected those bamboo poles outside the barracks.

The heads of people who are picked on bamboo poles are hung on the top of bamboo poles, just like wind lanterns hanging one by one, but these "wind lanterns" do not bring light to the barracks Yamen, but instead impose a heavy blood and terror on people's hearts.

When the villagers who came to watch saw this bloody scene, the women with the children hurriedly covered their children's eyes and turned their backs, and the women who did not have children covered their eyes with their hands, and did not dare to look at the heads raised high and the dead bodies without heads.

Standing beside Guan Qing, Liu Nu pulled Guan Qing's sleeves tightly with a pair of small hands, hiding half of his body behind her, and only showed one eye to look at the corpses of dozens of thieves who had just been killed.

Turning his head to look at Liu Nu, Guan Qing reached out and gently patted her on the back, signaling her not to panic.

Although Guan Qing had already told Liu Nu a lot of reasons why Liu Wei had to kill these people the night before, in Liu Nu's opinion, Liu Wei was already a murderous butcher.

was lightly patted twice by Guan Qing, and Liu Nu trembled all over his body for some reason, and an unhealthy flush appeared on his cheeks. However, everyone, including Guan Qing, focused on killing the rebels, and no one paid much attention to her.

Since he traveled to Luoyang with Liu Wei, he has seen him kill people in batches twice in a row. Especially this time, after the Luoyang army killed people, they even picked up the heads of those people and hung them high on the bamboo poles, which made Liu Nu's heart panic for a while, and in a trance, she only felt that countless unjust souls were rushing towards her and swarming into her body.

"Folks!" Holding the hilt of the sword with one hand and straightening up, Liu Wei looked around at the onlookers, stretched out his hand and pointed at the young man who was twisted by two soldiers, and shouted to the villagers: "This person pretended to be a villager, went to the king's army and set fire, and was twisted by the soldiers. It was found out that he was a spy sent by Gongsun Zan of Jizhou! Intent to frame this king and trap the villagers for disloyalty! Fathers, what do you think should be done with this person? ”

"Kill!" As soon as Liu Wei's words fell, a shout came from the onlookers, and then many villagers also shouted.

But this time it was only a group of men, women and children, who were frightened by the blood and the killing, who did not follow behind and shouted.

Nodding to the villagers, Liu Wei raised his hand and waved his hand to the two soldiers who were escorting the young man, and shouted at the two soldiers: "Execution!" ”

Hearing Liu Wei shouting "execution", the body of the young man, who was already almost paralyzed, was shocked, and his whole body suddenly gained strength, he shook his arms vigorously, trying to break free from the two soldiers who twisted him, while raising his head and looking at Liu Wei and shouting loudly: "Your Highness spares your life, the villain will never dare again!" ”

But where would Liu Wei pay attention to this, he pressed the hilt of his sword with his hand, and watched expressionlessly as the two soldiers pushed the shouting young man to a pile of corpses.

The young man's arms were twisted, but they were not tied. Two soldiers twisted him and pushed him to a pile of corpses, one of them raised his foot and kicked him hard in the crook of the leg, and just as the young man had just been kicked to his knees and the cry for mercy had just stopped, the other soldier let go of his arm, drew his long sword, held the hilt of the sword in both hands, and slashed at his neck before he could react and flee.

A stream of blood splattered, and the young man didn't even have time to let out a muffled snort, when his neck was slashed open by the long sword, and his body fell to the ground with a crooked body.

Maybe the strength was not accurate, the Luoyang army who swung the sword and slashed failed to chop off his head, and the young man who was killed still had a trace of flesh and skin between his head and neck, and the neck gushed blood, and the head connected by a trace of flesh and skin fell aside, and the corpse was even more terrifying than the corpse of the group of rebels who were killed before.

After the young man was killed, there was silence outside the barracks, and all eyes were on the corpse of the young man who had just been killed, except for the women and children who were covering their eyes and did not dare to look at the bloody scene.

After a long time, some of the onlookers burst into cheers, and then more people cheered.

Looking at the corpse of the young man who was killed expressionlessly, Liu Wei felt a little emotional in his heart. This man is not very old, and if it were not for the war, he would have been working diligently at home, having just married a bride, and living happily with his family.

Listening to the cheers of the villagers, Liu Wei felt a burst of sadness inexplicably. The young man was killed not because he had done harm to the villagers, but because he intended to set fire to the barracks and lure Liu Wei into an ambush under Gongsun Fan Bu.

The villagers were too easy to fool, Liu Wei only implicitly involved the young man with the rebels who attacked the village, and the young man who had just been beheaded had become a heinous villain in the eyes of this group of villagers, and no one had the slightest sympathy for his death.

The cheering villagers all had red flashes of excitement on their faces, and their fists were clenched tightly, as if they wanted to rush forward and slash the young man's body with a hundred knives.

At first, it was only the onlookers who cheered, but later even the officers and soldiers of the Luoyang Army also shouted, and the shouts of "Long live the king of Luoyang" came and went, and the cheers were actually higher and higher.

The word "long live" was not stolen by the emperor at that time until the Tang and Song dynasties, and at the end of the Han Dynasty, Mo said that the army and the people would shout loudly when they saw something worth celebrating, even if the people were interested in coming, as long as his financial resources were enough, and he embroidered a vivid dragon on his clothes, no one would intervene.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, Confucianism had not been distorted or tampered with, and the class nature was still relatively relaxed. But this voice is heard in the ears of Liu Wei, who has lived two thousand years later, but it is not like that.

Wave after wave of cheers almost shook the earth, Liu Wei raised his hands and pressed a few times towards the cheering crowd, and only when the people stopped cheering did he let go of his voice and shouted to the people: "Folks! Soldiers! I, the king of Luoyang, will never connive at the soldiers under my command to harm the people, and the soldiers of my Luoyang army will never raise a butcher's knife to the people who are like brothers and sisters! Please believe in this king, go home to live, plant good fields, collect more grain, live a prosperous life, and let Hongnong prosper! But there are foreign enemies, and this king will definitely lead the army and personally repay the blood debt for the villagers! ”

"Enter Jizhou! Fight in the Bohai Sea! Kill Gongsun Zhan! Before Liu Wei's words fell, one of the generals raised his arms and shouted loudly.

All the Luoyang troops present shouted with the general, and later, even the onlookers raised their arms and shouted in unison.

A massacre that killed dozens of people restored the trust of the people who had been harassed in Liu Wei. Gongsun Zhan secretly ordered people to do all this, not only did not play the role he expected, but completely angered Liu Wei, and also made the people of the entire Hongnong County hate him to the core.

After the people dispersed, Liu Wei returned to the barracks, led a team of soldiers, and went straight to the place where the prisoners were held, and recruited the captured Bohai navy.

Guan Qing and Liu Nu did not follow, they watched two massacres in a row, one of which was still a massacre of her clansmen, Liu Nu was a girl after all, she was frightened, and before returning to the barracks, she started to heat up.

Finding that Liu Nu's cheeks were flushed, and the whole person seemed to be a little confused, Guan Qing didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly told Liu to retreat, and accompanied her back to the camp first.

The wounded doctor in the army is good at treating hard injuries caused by swords, guns and halberds, but he is not very expert in fever and headache. Returning to the tent and lying down, Liu Nu took the medicine prescribed for her by the wounded doctor, and the heat not only did not subside, but became a little hotter.

After living with Liu Nu for a few days, although he didn't have too deep feelings for this Hun Juci, seeing her burning little face flushed, the whole person fell into a coma, Guan Qing really felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. A trace of motherhood also swelled from the bottom of her heart because of the fact that this Hun who was only a few years younger than her was secondary.

Seeing the group of surrendered Bohai Navy, Liu Wei launched a most proficient attack on them, and many Bohai Navy members were excited at that time after listening to Liu Bian's description that Gongsun Zhan just regarded them as meat shields and had already given up on them, they were excited at that time and expressed their willingness to switch to the Luoyang Army and follow Liu Bian's crusade against the former benefactor Gongsun Zhan.

There are also a few who are unwilling to switch to Liu Bian, in order to show that he is different from Gongsun Zhan, Liu Biao let those Bohai Navy prisoners who served the Luoyang Army follow him with all their hearts, and he did not embarrass these people, in addition to confiscating the armor and blades, Liu Biao ordered people to give some copper coins to these Bohai Navymen who were leaving, urging them to escort the seriously injured Bohai Navy, and take advantage of the fact that it was not too late to leave the military camp and return to Bohai.

As soon as he finished the matter at hand, Liu Wei thought of Guan Qing's hurried expression when he retired, and knew that Guan Qing must have met something important, so he hurriedly led the two soldiers to Guan Qing's tent.

When he arrived outside Guan Qing's tent, he learned from the soldiers guarding the tent that Liu Nu had a high fever, and Liu Wei was taken aback. If it is after 2,000 years, the high fever is not terrible, as long as you get a fever-reducing injection, there is a chance that the fever will be reduced and restored to the same as before.

But he is now at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the level of medical care is fundamentally different from that of two thousand years later.

"What's wrong?" Lifting the curtain of the tent and entering the tent, Liu Wei asked Guan Qing: "I heard that the fever does not go away, can the wounded doctor come to see it?" ”

"Look!" was kneeling beside the bed, looking at Liu Nu with a worried face, and suddenly heard Liu Wei speak, Guan Qing hurriedly stood up, stood sideways, bowed slightly and said to Liu Wei: "The wounded doctor prescribed medicine, but after taking it, it didn't get better." ”

After listening to Guan Qing's words, Liu Wei strode to the side of the bed, squatted down, and stretched out his hand to probe Liu Nu's forehead.

This probe startled him, Liunu's forehead was as hot as a furnace, so hot, if it continued, even if he saved his life, when she woke up, she would definitely be burned stupid.

"Someone!" He turned his head and shouted outside the tent, and when one of the soldiers heard the call and entered the tent, Liu Wei said to him, "Go get some cold water, and bring a clean linen cloth." ”

After the soldiers were ordered to leave, Liu Wei raised his head and said to Guan Qing who was standing aside: "There are some wild reed roots growing on the side of the road at the entrance of the village, although the heat dissipation is not as fast as Houttuynia cordata, but it is also beneficial to her. When I turned around, the king personally picked some for Juji, and Qing'er helped her fry the water......"

"Liu Biao kills people without blinking, Da Danyu must not be his enemy......" Liu Biao was talking, and Liu Nu, who was in a coma, suddenly shouted, and then let out a burst of whispers that Liu Bian and Guan Qing couldn't really understand.

"Ugh!" Hearing Liu Nu's shout, Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, looked up at Guan Qing, and said to her with some embarrassment: "It seems that the second is to treat this king as a wicked person who kills people without blinking!" ”

"Your Highness, don't be worried!" Looking down at Liu Nu, whose cheeks were burning red, Guan Qingqiang pulled up a smile and said to Liu Wei: "She has such an idea in her heart, isn't it what His Highness wants to see, and wants her to return to the Xiongnu and inform the Xiongnu Da Danyu?" ”
