Chapter 701: Massacre
The defense forces were not in a hurry to chase and kill, and they were still approaching in an orderly manner. Although the pursuit is enjoyable, it is likely that someone will take advantage of the chaos to escape, but now this slow approach is constantly compressing the space of the Zoroastrians, until they are forced into a corner, and then they will be killed.
No ruler is merciful to rebels. That's what the defense forces do, and naturally all of them are as hard as iron.
"Did you see Leibi?" Song Li saw that the victory was decided, and suddenly remembered the guy he had wanted to kill a long time ago.
"Back to the prince's words, no. One of the guards beside him said: "When the Zoroastrians first started to start the incident, he was still there, and rushed to the front, otherwise those Zoroastrians would not be so crazy, but when they rushed outside the palace and were blocked by our people, Leibi was gone, and no one knew where he went, maybe he ran away." ”
Damn, this grandson slipped away fast. Song Li scolded secretly, but he didn't dwell too much on this matter.
He had a hunch that he would have a confrontation with this kid Leibi, and it wouldn't be long before he would run into him.
In fact, he now knows why Leibi ran away, as the leader of the Zoroastrian sect, eighty percent of Leibi's strength is in controlling the fire, but his burning fire was taken away by himself, and now it has become the snack of the emperor's fire, and Leibi has become a toothless tiger, as long as he doesn't have an idiot at home, he will definitely not stay here to accompany his disciples to die.
Song Li didn't plan to search for him now, firstly, it was unnecessary, and secondly, he was afraid that he would jump off the wall in a hurry.
In the final analysis, people are the head snakes here, Song Li has just arrived, and he doesn't know anything about the situation here, if Leibi is really going to play with his life, Song Li is really afraid that he will suffer.
As the so-called son of a daughter can't sit down. Song Li didn't want to risk his life for the sake of a momentary mood, it was not worth it.
Without Leibi and other Zoroastrian leaders in the presence, the rest of the Zoroastrians would not have to worry. It didn't take long for him to be driven to a square in front of the palace, and he looked at the sharp blades in the hands of the defenders around him, all of them turned pale and their limbs trembled, and they no longer had the crazy energy they had when they had just rebelled.
"Lord Wang, may I ask what to do with these rebellions?" Charles, who was covered in blood, walked over and asked Song Li for a strategy.
It can be seen that Charles has obviously killed a lot of people, not only is he covered in blood, but there is a pool of blood under his feet after standing in front of Song Li for a while. At the same time, it is also because the murderous aura on his body is quite strong now.
"What did you do with the Rambis Kingdom in the past?" Song Li asked.
"Naturally, it is to make an example. Charles said coldly.
"Then let's follow the old ways. Song Li replied indifferently, then looked at Charles and said: "What to do, you can do it, I can trust you, I believe that Queen Helen can also trust you, there are many people, it is inevitable that some people will have other ideas, this is not all your fault, don't have a burden in your heart, let it go, I will help you speak to Queen Helen, and the honor of the defense army will definitely not be affected by this." ”
"Thank you, I know how to do it. Charles's eyes lit up with excitement, and he gave a standard military salute to Song Li, and then turned to leave.
I don't know what he said when he returned to the ranks, but the soldiers of the defense began to shout hooray, and then began to slaughter the Zoroastrians in the encirclement in a vicious manner.
I have to say that the efficiency of the defense forces in killing people is still quite high, and it didn't take long for a standing Zoroastrian to be seen in the field.
Not only did they kill people, but the defense forces also cut off the heads of these people and piled them up.
Song Li didn't know if this was a tradition of the Rambis Kingdom, or if the defense army wanted to use it to calculate military merits.
After a while, Charles came over again and reported the situation to Song Li, probably saying how many people had been killed and how many things had been seized, and he was now cleaning up the scene, and then asked Song Li what else he had to order.
"Although the momentum of the rebellion has been suppressed, I see that there are still some small battles going on, and I must not let it up. Song Li pointed to his own people who were guarding outside the palace at this time, and said, "This is your palace, and inside is your queen, and the responsibility of protecting her still has to be on your shoulders." ”
Speaking of this, Song Li glanced at Charles and said, "Later, you will select some people and start taking over the defense of the palace from my subordinates." ”
"Yes. Charles nodded, and a smile appeared on his face.
For him, this is definitely a great trust, and it also shows that the glory of the defense force has not been tarnished by a few black sheep.
"Don't rejoice too soon. Song Li said: "I also took a lot of risk in doing this, although I cleaned up most of the rebellion in the military camp before, but there may not be no fish in the net, I understand the truth of urgency." But now, I hope that all the people you have chosen are loyal and brave men, and if anything goes wrong, Charles, no matter how much I admire you, under the law of military law, I will not spare you. ”
"Please rest assured, I will guarantee my own head, and I will never do the same thing as before. Charles exclaimed.
"Good. Song Li nodded, and said: "In addition, due to the urgency of the matter before, in order to control the situation as soon as possible, I also had to send out my people to suppress the rebellion, now that the general situation has been decided, my people should also be withdrawn, and please send someone over to hand them over as soon as possible, after all, you are the defense force, and it is your responsibility to guard this place, we are just guests after all, aren't we?"
Song Li said this, in fact, it was also to weaken the antagonistic mood that the military of the Rambis Kingdom might have because of this.
After all, the army is a place of honor, and if there is a rebellion in the royal capital, it is the people of the Holy Lion Empire who contribute the most, and this kind of topic will definitely make the people distrust the defense army.
At the same time, the Defence Forces are also prone to some bad feelings.
However, with Song Li's words, it was clear that he was only helping temporarily, and now that he was done, you would do the rest, which would make the defense army more comfortable.
Of course, the more reason is that Lu Qian has already sent someone over, saying that those who should be killed are killed, and those who should be copied are finished, and the rest of the sweeping work must of course be done by the defense army, and at the same time, they also have to help Lu Qian and others carry the black pot.
So many ministers were killed, if this matter was spread on the heads of Lu Qian and others, it would be an international dispute. But if the defense forces did it, it makes sense.
Charles didn't say much, maybe he was also pretending to be confused, nodded, and began to select soldiers according to Song Li's intentions to take over the defense of the palace, while the other part went to other parts of the royal capital to hand over the escort team of the Holy Lion Empire led by Lu Qian.
Song Li also sent the guards around him to spread the word, so as not to cause misunderstandings again because of poor communication, and the defense army and his own people would fight again.
By the time the bits and pieces were done, the sky was already bright, but Song Li was not in a hurry to go back to the embassy to rest, but entered the palace again and went to tell Queen Helen about the situation outside, so that she could rest assured.
At the same time, it is more important to return the seal ring on his finger to Queen Helen.
From the bottom of his heart, Song Li is actually not a person who is too greedy for power, he has today's status, and some of it is not something he won by himself, but something that will come down in the future.
He didn't care much about the power of the Holy Lion Empire, let alone the power of the Rambis Kingdom.
For him, this seal ring is just a tool used to mobilize troops. Wear it when you can use it, and it's better to return it as soon as possible if you don't need it.
Although Queen Helen is in the palace, her eyes are not black, and the emotions outside are constantly reported to her by confidants, so although the killing sound outside is shocking, Queen Helen is not panicked in the palace at all.
Even if she didn't believe in those defense forces, she still believed that Song Li was fully capable of cleaning up the mess outside.
Hearing the news from the guards that Song Li was asking to see her, Queen Helen did not really let Song Li come to see her, but personally went out to greet Song Li.
The queen personally went out to greet her, which was already quite a high courtesy. If it were an ordinary envoy, he would definitely be quite excited and proud.
But Song Li didn't feel anything, and watched Queen Helen come over, just stretched out his hand, made an inviting gesture, and said, "I don't know if Helen is interested in accompanying me to the back garden for a walk." ”
"It's a great honor. Queen Helen said.
Song Li smiled, pulled Queen Helen and walked towards the large garden in the palace, on the way Song Li concisely told the process of quelling the rebellion, of course, he didn't ask for any credit, it was all on Charles and other defenders.
He did this because he was an envoy of the Holy Lion Empire, even if he received these credits, it would be of little use to him, he could neither be promoted nor rich, it was better to be a favor. Second, the credit was given to Charles and others, and they naturally had to bear the blame for the black cauldron.
Although Song Li did not follow, with his understanding of his subordinates, he could also guess that when Lu Qian and the others raided the house and destroyed the door, the method must have been simple and rude.
These questions may not be a big deal now, but they won't be easy to say in the future. Now that it's on the heads of Charles and the others, it has nothing to do with them.
Song Li did this with his selfishness, but in Queen Helen's eyes, this was a sign of not being arrogant, and she also interpreted Song Li's move as because he took quelling the rebellion as his own business, so naturally he didn't have to care about the credit.
In this regard, Queen Helen is not only jealous, but very sweet in her heart.
"I've done everything I need to do, and it's time for this seal to be returned to its rightful owner. Song Li said and took out the seal ring and handed it to Queen Helen.
Queen Helen's face changed slightly, and she looked at Song Li with a little more sadness in her eyes. Obviously, she thought too much, thinking that Song Li gave her the ring because she didn't want to recognize her as a woman
