CHAPTER XX

The sinister intentions of the Xiao family

"Because of the war with the snake people in the desert area, the imperial soldiers suffered great losses, so they had to temporarily recruit mercenaries from all over the country and even forcibly capture the strong men. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Aoki Town, but all those who have reached the level of fighter or above were forcibly recruited by the Xiao family of Utan City, the actual overlord of this area, and followed the Xiao family's strong man to the battlefield. At least not this year. ”

The message contained in this passage is really not small. Gu Beijing sorted out some confused thoughts and began to analyze little by little.

First of all, the war with the snake people...... Although because his current level is too low, he doesn't know the specific time when he entered the world or even the world it is, but in the case that he has already judged which world it is, it is still no problem to guess the approximate time period. What is certain is that the plot has definitely not begun yet.

Because I read this novel a long time ago, my memory will inevitably be a little blurry. But on some big things, Gu Beijing is still very confident in his memory. When the plot officially began, there was absolutely no large-scale war between the Gamma Empire and the Snake People. Even if this is not shown in the novel, even if there is a conflict between the two sides after the beginning of the plot, it is just a fight between a few strong men and patrols, and there will never be such a thing as sending a whole country to the desert.

Of course, it is not excluded that this world has been completely changed by other reincarnators, and even the protagonist has been killed by members of a large organization, resulting in a complete collapse of the plot and so on.

But if you add the fact that he was forcibly recruited by the strong people of the Xiao family, then there is no longer any doubt. The Xiao family is indeed generous, and the protagonist Xiao Yan's grandfather is even a fighting king, and his strength is ranked among the best in the entire empire. However, it didn't work, and his grandfather died in the desert, in the war against the snake people.

It doesn't matter if his grandfather is dead, the Xiao family, which was originally a broken household, has no strong man to protect it, so it has to continue to fall, and even the self-reserved land of Utan City can't be defended.

According to the information collected scattered in recent days, Gu Beijing also knew that this place known as Aoki Town, which was actually a big village, was near Utan City and was under the jurisdiction of Utan City.

If the grandfather of the Xiao family has not hung up at this time, and the Xiao family is still the overlord of this area, then everything will be explained. The Xiao family didn't want their descendants to be cannon fodder to go to the front line to die, and the empire issued a conscription target, so this indicator had to be forcibly distributed to the following semi-independent small forces. Anyway, these small forces were only forced to show deference to the Xiao family under pressure, and even if the Xiao family died, there would be no loss. On the contrary, it can kill two birds with one stone, not only can it expand the direct territory of the family, but it can also show loyalty to the empire, and by the way, it can covet the pension of some soldiers who died in battle......

Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy. After thinking of this, Gu Beijing's body was already covered with cold sweat, he thought that his heart was black enough, but he didn't expect that the grandfather of the Xiao family was likely to use the name of righteousness in the next game of chess to forcibly force the small forces in his sphere of influence who were not very respectful to send them to death, this is the real Yang Mou, the Yang Mou that people have to jump even if they know that it is a trap, compared to this kind of old fox, he is much worse.

"The reward points to be deducted for mission failure are enough, but ...... I'm really unwilling. Gu Beijing leaned against a big tree, seizing the time to relieve a little fatigue as much as possible.

There are still 30 magazines left for 5.56mm rifle rounds and 900 rounds, and more than 800 rounds of 9mm pistol rounds, and the rest of the gunpowder weapons have long been used up......

"Relying on the remaining things at present, I can only be sure of dealing with the guys below the sixth-stage Dou Qi, but they are not stupid, and they are not willing to continue to send people to death at all......" Gu Beijing pondered, his face gradually full of entanglement.

……

“…… So? Are you ready to give up? Do you think it's worth it for the dead townspeople? When you think of today's decision, you won't feel a sense of conscience? Have you lost even what little courage you have? Outside the woods, in a simple grass hut on the side of the avenue, a big man shouted at the seven or eight people below, without paying any attention to the faces of those people.

Everyone who was scolded by him was all flushed, and finally one of them stood up and reluctantly argued: "It's not that we don't work hard, we have tried our best, but the enemy is too fierce, we can't let more people die in this small forest." ”

"Greedy for life and afraid of death, still have to find an excuse? Don't you feel ashamed? If your father had heard this, he might have crawled out of the coffin in anger. ”

In the face of the big man's ridicule, the man was silent.

Dahan had a rather unforgiving momentum, and continued: "I remember that your qualifications are not too bad, when you were twenty years old, you failed to break through the fighter, and your cultivation was regressed to the eighth stage of the fighting qi, although you later rebuilt, but you no longer dared to attack the fighter. Now that you've made this decision again, tell me, are you willing to shrink like this for the rest of your life? ”

"What can I do if I am not reconciled." Faced with the aggressive momentum of the big man, he simply let go and said: "Our ancestors have been here like this for generations, and there is a noble lord pressed on the top, and the one who left came to this house, just say that the Xiao family, which is now pressing on our heads, is harsh on taxes and miscellaneous taxes every year, and it is simply sensational." The peasants could not eat a bite of the rice they planted, and the merchants worked hard for a year, and basically paid all the taxes on their income. In order to survive, many people are forced to sell their sons and daughters. Wartime conscription, all the above fighters are not spared, using our bones to cast the glory of his Xiao family, but what can we do? Admit it, this is our life. ”

"You admit it, but I don't want to admit it." The big man was furious, raised his hand and slapped the table hard, and actually collapsed the entire table. "Why should the Xiao family be allowed to ride on our heads all the time, why can they kill our people for nothing without paying for their lives? Why should my wife be brutally killed? Why? Tell me, why? Before he could finish speaking, the big man raised his leg and kicked the man out of the shed.

The faces of everyone who witnessed this scene changed slightly at the same time.

"It's ...... Fighters. ”

PS: There's a stalk in this, I don't know if I feel familiar, and then guess which film it's from. Although this film may not have been seen even by many veteran movie fans. In addition, don't think that I am the Xiao family, in fact, this is just the tip of the iceberg. If this world is really turned into reality, what kind of good bird might the Xiao family be? was driven from Zhongzhou to Gamma, leaving only two or three big cats and kittens, not ruthless in heart, not black in hand, a foreigner may have a foothold? Don't they want to restore the glory of their ancestors one day? Aren't they trying to save as much money as possible to use as capital to return to Midstate in the future? How could not want. What do you want to do? Of course it's going to be exploited. It's not that complicated. As long as you are not limited by the original work, you can find that it was the original author who washed the Xiao family too white.
