These people are different from the people in Nanlincheng, they don't have too much affection for the Xiling army, and they left their hometown just because Nangong Jinyu's policy is too harsh, but they are not necessarily good people who are oppressed by the wicked, these people are not as simple as they imagined, seeing Zhang Ergou being killed by Yan Lu, they think more about Zhang Ergou just now helping them fill their stomachs, rather than that they are about to go to Xiling to live a new life.

The surrounding residents surrounded Yan Lu, originally Yan Lu still felt guilty because he had killed someone by mistake, but being ridiculed by everyone, he who was already a big temper gradually couldn't control himself, if it wasn't for Mu Qingfeng's timely appearance, I'm afraid that no one would know what would happen.

"Shizi, the crime in this matter is not General Yan, he killed by mistake, plus that Zhang Ergou did indirectly kill our cavalry, it can be regarded as more than innocent." Mu Chongshan whispered in Mu Qingfeng's ear, now that he and Mu Qingfeng came to everyone with a group of people, seeing those soldiers who were a little excited because of the death of the cavalry Xiao Zhao, the surrounding crowd was surprisingly silent. There was fear in the eyes of many people, for fear that they would provoke these soldiers and die on the spot.

"It's okay in normal times, but not today, even if Yan Lu is unintentional, in today's situation, if we ignore it, we will lose the hearts of the people, although what they did was inappropriate, but after all, they were misled, General Yan, don't blame me, come here!" In the end, Mu Qingfeng shouted with red eyes.

Yan Lu came to Mu Qingfeng's side silently, he didn't have any opinion on Mu Qingfeng's decision, no matter what, it is an indisputable fact that Zhang Ergou died on his own, even if he indirectly forced Xiao Zhao to death, the crime was extremely heinous, but according to legal theory, Mu Qingfeng's disposal was not a problem at all.

"Zhang Ergou slaughtered the military horse without authorization, and our sergeant committed suicide, and should be punished for the crime of stealing and disturbing military discipline, although the crime is extremely heinous, but the crime is not to death, Yan Lu manslaughter, according to the military law, the heavy sentence is thirty, and General Yan will be discharged!" Mu Qingfeng knew that such a disposition was unfair to Yan Lu, and at that time, he had to do it in order to appease the people.

Yan Lu took off his shirt and revealed his sturdy upper body, seeing the scars on Yan Lu's body, the surrounding crowd not only gasped, what kind of application can people have this body scars, at this time everyone suddenly realized one thing, they were going to Xiling, if these people resented themselves, then how could it be good, but it was too late to say anything, like a baby's arm-thick military stick had fallen fiercely on Yan Lu's back, just a stick, Yan Lu's back appeared purple and blue, The executioners did not spare their hands at all.

When the twentieth military stick was beaten, Yan Lu's physical fitness was unbearable, and a mouthful of blood spurted out directly, if all the thirty military sticks were beaten down, not to mention that Yan Lu couldn't get out of bed for a year and a half, I am afraid that the internal organs would leave injuries that were difficult to heal, and those soldiers who were executed couldn't help but stop and look at Mu Qingfeng when they saw their general cutting out blood.

"Little rabbit cub, you have only beaten twenty military sticks, when Lao Tzu doesn't know how to count? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu turned back and beat your mother, and said that thirty military sticks are thirty military sticks, hurry up and do it" Although Yan Lu said very domineeringly, anyone could hear that he lacked confidence, if he hadn't gritted his teeth and insisted, I'm afraid he would have fainted now.

Just when Yan Lu was depressed in his chest and impatient, he found that the people around him let out a burst of exclamations, he raised his head, but saw that Mu Qingfeng had already taken off his shirt and stood beside him shirtless.

"Shizi, what are you doing, the mistake that my old Yan made is one person to do things, and I can bear the remaining ten sticks," Yan Lu is not a fool, he knows what Mu Qingfeng is going to do.

"General Yan is my subordinate, he has committed a crime, and I, as a Shangguan, have a relationship that I can't escape, and the remaining ten sticks are borne by me, do it!" Mu Qingfeng ignored Yan Lu, and just ordered his subordinates to hurry up.

At this time, everyone found out that although the scars on Mu Qingfeng's body were not as good as Yan Lu, they were by no means few, especially the scar on his left shoulder, which was shot through by a bow and arrow at a glance, but his order was difficult for the two soldiers who were executed, and they were somewhat afraid of fighting the general just now, but because of Mu Qingfeng's order, they didn't dare to stay, and now let them fight the future King Ling, to be honest, the two of them would rather kill three in and three out in an army of 10,000 than take on this task.

Mu Qingfeng noticed their embarrassment, so he said to Mu Chongshan: "Mu Commander leads you here!"

Mu Chongshan has no choice, if he retreats at this time, what his son has done will be in vain, and he knows very well that the reason why Mu Qingfeng wants to take these ten sticks is not to take responsibility for Yan Lu, but to prevent Yan Lu from leaving a too bad impression on those people, and also so that this fierce general does not have to lie down and put on for the rest of his life.

Although Mu Qingfeng's left hand was almost abolished, even after so many days, he did not improve, but in order to treat his left hand, he also took a lot of elixir, coupled with the perennial military life, he never put down the daily exercise, so his body is much stronger than the average person, otherwise Mu Qingfeng would not take the initiative to take this responsibility, Rao is so, when the stick fell, Mu Qingfeng's face also appeared abnormal flush.

Mu Chongshan is a martial arts master, and he is a general in the army, so he naturally knows how to do some hands and feet on the military stick, but in front of everyone's eyes, he doesn't dare to be too waterproof, and when the ten canes are finished, Mu Qingfeng's back can't be seen, the blood is dripping with Yan Lu's back, and the blood at the corner of his mouth also proves that this punishment has hurt his inner house.

Yan Lu on the side had already burst into tears, although he was very optimistic about the future master of Xiling, but he never expected Mu Qingfeng to do this for himself, seeing Mu Qingfeng's crumbling appearance, he secretly swore in his heart that in the future, his life would be the son of the world, and he would not give up.

Also moved were those Xiling Iron Horsemen, they were also shocked by what Mu Qingfeng did, no one thought that Mu Qingfeng was deliberately buying people's hearts, first of all, he didn't need to use this way to increase his prestige, and secondly, these ten military sticks were not something that anyone could easily carry down.

After the ten sticks were beaten, Mu Qingfeng obviously couldn't stand still, Mu Chongshan hurriedly threw down the military stick, wanting to help him, but Mu Qingfeng stretched out his hand to stop him.

Mu Qingfeng forcibly swallowed the blood in his mouth, took a deep breath, and said word by word: "People say that it is a crime to punish without suing, so I will tell you now, the war horse is our second life, no one can kill without authorization, if you are hungry without food, you can come to me, and if someone fights our war horse's idea, this son must let his head fall to the ground!" ”

Although Mu Qingfeng didn't make a lot of noise because of his injury, the people around him still felt a strong killing intent, if they changed the time and place, they had no doubt that Mu Qingfeng personally cut off Zhang Ergou's head.

"Take my brother and his horse, and we'll go back to camp." Mu Qingfeng walked tremblingly, and it seemed that he might fall down at any time, but Mu Chongshan looked at his back and seemed to see the young and vigorous Lingwang Zhanyu Frontier.

This turmoil that almost caused turmoil was finally calmed down under Mu Qingfeng's treatment, although Mu Qingfeng and Yan Lu were both injured a lot, but there was still the elixir of Wanchun Valley by his side, and it was not a big problem to reply in a short time, but although the riots of those residents were suppressed, the food problem was still a big problem that was difficult to solve, and now Mu Qingfeng could only rely on Xue Lian'er to come back quickly to replenish supplies, but then again, fortunately, Xue Lian'er was not here, otherwise he would have seen Mu Qingfeng like this, She might be crazy about it.

Just when Mu Qingfeng was still struggling with food and grass, Nangong Lin Xuan and his troops were still more than a hundred miles away from them, and as Nangong Lin Xuan expected, Mu Qingfeng was tired by the people who tried to flee to Xiling, and the speed of the march was greatly delayed, and due to the problem of food, they also had many internal problems.

Mu Qingfeng and Yan Lu, who had just been able to go to the ground, had a hard time in the past two days, not only because of the injuries on their bodies, but also because of their morale and food and grass, to be honest, Mu Qingfeng had a feeling of exhaustion in private.

Perhaps knowing the difficulties they relied on, the actions of the residents of the southern city made Mu Qingfeng feel a little warm, in order to reduce the food loss of the army, they took the initiative to take out part of the dry food they brought and handed it to the army and those unprepared people, although this is not a long-term solution, but at least it bought them a lot of time.

When the scout brought the news of the large-scale enemy approaching to Mu Qingfeng, he didn't care about the injuries on his body, and directly asked Mu Chongshan to cross the map, and observed it carefully, if there was no people dragging him down, they would be able to say anything, but now, Mu Qingfeng must come up with a reasonable countermeasure, otherwise let alone bring the people back to Xiling, I am afraid that he and the Xiling Iron Cavalry will also have to fall here.

Fortunately, the battle of Nanlincheng back then gave me a relatively large understanding of the surrounding terrain, and if I wanted to leave Daliangzhou, I could only make some fuss in Luoque Valley.

"You said that this kid is stupid with so many people." Nangong Lin Xuan was not in a hurry at all, and he was still in the mood to drink a little wine when he camped at night.

"What the prince said is, I think this prince of Ling is a man who has no strength and sells his reputation and reputation." Commander Zhuo thought that Mu Qingfeng was seeking his own death, so naturally he couldn't think highly of him.

"No, no, no, I originally thought that this prince of Lingwang was a gimmick made by Xiling to appease people's hearts, but seeing what he did, I believe that he is the seed of Mu Qingfeng, the king of Ling, and he is as stupid as letting his princess go to the queen back then."
