Chapter 120: The Defeated Officer
Zhou Xian instructed Yu Jinshan to say: "Go find the military doctor who is with the army and treat these villagers." ”
"Yes."
"In addition, go and take out the military rations of the army, and build three cauldrons for them here."
"Yes!"
Yu Jinshan hurriedly received the military order and returned to the place where the army was stationed.
At the same time, the other members of the Jinyi Guard had emerged on the other side of the hill.
Zhou Xian was accompanied by only four brocade guards and Xue Gang.
Zhou Xian's eyes wandered back and forth on the refugees.
Soon he locked onto an innocent, harmless, immature and cowardly little girl.
The little girl found Zhou Xian staring at her, and hurriedly avoided Zhou Xian's eyes in a panic.
Zhou Xian's heart was a little sour, he quickly put away his gaze, turned around and asked Xue Gang again: "What about Liukou?" What about the rogues who hunt down the refugees? ”
"Back to Chitose, the people of the Zhenfu Division have already gone to subdue them, and they are on the other side of the hill." Xue Gang pointed not far away and said.
At this time, the two dozen or so rogues had been all controlled by the people of the Suppression Division.
The brocade guards formed a circle and surrounded them inside.
Zhou Xian said with a firm gaze: "Let's go, I want to see what kind of person is so unmartial and dares to attack refugees." ”
"Chitose here."
A moment later, Xue Gang took Zhou Xian to the left side of the hillside.
Sure enough, I saw a group of people squatting on the ground surrounded by the brocade guards, holding their heads in their hands.
Jinyi Wei Qianhu Xu Xianchun said: "Lord Zongqi, there are a few guys who tried to resist in vain and were beheaded. ”
Zhou Xian glared at Xu Xianchun and did not speak.
Cutting down robbers and rogues, naturally, there is no need to say much.
But......
Zhou Xian found that these people didn't look like rogues at all.
Because they look even more embarrassed than the wave of refugees just now.
The men's clothes were in tatters, and almost every one of them had bark and sprouts in their hands.
Do what?
Nibble and eat when you're hungry.
These guys are robbers? Bandits in the mountains?
They were all skinny and staggered when they walked.
It is estimated that he can't even lift a knife, what kind of bandit are you talking about?
It's just that these guys are in the prime of life, and they go forward in groups, wanting to covet those refugees.
But the refugees also have no food.
Zhou Xian looked at the group of people in front of him, looked at Xue Gang depressedly and asked, "What are they holding in their hands?" ”
"Back to Chitose, they hold branches."
"What are you doing with a branch?"
"Looking at the teeth marks on it, it must be gnawing on the bark."
"Then why gnaw on the bark?" Zhou Xian broke the casserole and asked in the end, not because he was bored, but because he felt that this humble military general was too unreasonable.
Xue Gang scratched his head and said, "You must be hungry, that's why you eat everything." ”
"Oh, you know? You know they're hungry, so what are you doing in a daze? ”
"Chitose, what do you mean?"
"Go and tell the grain delivery team to give these people a big cauldron."
"Huh? Be! ”
Xue Gang was stunned for a moment, but still did so.
He couldn't figure it out, to treat the rogue robbers, and to provide them with food and drink?
But Zhou Xian didn't think so.
Although he was a murderer in the court, it was against corrupt officials and traitors.
When it comes to the people, everything still has to be people-oriented.
Even if these people have committed the heinous sins, they should still be given to them to eat.
Being a king, not letting the people be starving ghosts, this is the monarch of the sages.
It is also the humanity that comes from the bones of each person.
But now these guys have lost their minds and become beasts.
Like animals, anything can be done for the sake of food.
Soon Xue Gang set up a cauldron for them.
As soon as the water and food were released, they couldn't wait to grab food and drink.
Seeing this scene, the surrounding Jinyi guards frowned, which was almost unsightly.
After a long time, the guys drank all the rice water in the cauldron.
Many people were full of food and drink, and they just lay flat.
For them, maybe death at this time is nothing to be afraid of.
At this time, Xue Gang walked up to Zhou Xian and seemed to say something.
was stopped by Zhou Xian.
Zhou Xian's attention was completely on those people, he looked at the radiant rogues and asked, "You all have hands and feet, why do you want to fall into bandits and oppress refugees?" ”
I heard Zhou Xian ask such a question.
One of the rogues sat up.
The man looked to be in his early thirties, and relief flowed in his cloudy eyes.
He tried to stand up, but he was too full to eat.
So he could only crawl on the ground and move towards Zhou Xian.
At this time, the brocade guards beside Zhou Xian pulled out their knives one after another, and Yu Jinshan said coldly: "Hugh has to move forward." ”
The man looked stunned for a moment, and then raised his hands above his head.
Towards Zhou Xian, he made a five-body bow.
Then he nodded to Zhou Xian and pounded garlic.
Two words burst out of the corner of Jian Nan's mouth: "Thank you!" ”
After a pause, the man continued: "Thank you for your gift, I am willing to go to the soup for your lord and die without regrets!" ”
Although it was the first time to meet, although it was the first time to hear such thanks.
But the sincerity of it is something that no one will question.
Because sometimes the grace of a meal is a life, and it is a lifetime of kindness.
At the same time, the rogues lying on the ground also got up.
They kept kowtowing to Zhou Xian, and they also said sonorous words about going to the soup and going to the fire, and never giving up.
Zhou Xian was slightly stunned, looked at Xue Gang, and said suspiciously: "This is the bandit you are talking about?" ”
"Back to Chitose, when the last general explored before, the refugees said that these people were going to chase them and kill them!"
Zhou Xian smacked his lips.
Now the situation is clear.
In the end, it's all about hunger.
On the one hand, I had to run away with my heart on my back when I was hungry.
On the one hand, the hungry lost their conscience and prepared to eat people......
Zhou Xian looked at Liukou and asked in a deep voice, "Where did you come from to answer my words?" ”
Xue Gang also explained beside him: "It's all good to say, now it's the concubine who is asking you now." ”
"If the answer is not what you asked, or if you are false, Hugh blames the general for being ruthless!"
Xue Gang shook the saber on his waist.
At the same time, the rogues' eyes also lit up.
In fact, they also knew that Zhou Xian in front of them was not an idler.
After all, the Jinyi guards who are clustered around Zhou Xian are probably known to everyone in the world.
Embroidered spring knife, flying fish suit.
The person who can accompany the town and the pacification division must be a court nobleman.
It's just that everyone didn't expect this person to be the dictatorial prison horse in recent times, Shura Tai Sui!
After the crowd was shocked, they were even more frightened.
The man in his early thirties who took the lead burst into tears on the spot.
Howling and crying, "The last general will meet Chitose!" ”
"The last general pays a visit to Chitose and begs the Chitose Lord to give the last general the death penalty!"
Zhou Xian looked stunned, and Xue Gang and the members of Jinyiwei were also shocked.
"You...... Are you from the court? ”
