Chapter 180: Despicable Means

Yu Sheng fixed his eyes on the middle-aged man who crawled over on his knees, a standard armor on his body had not yet been taken off, looking at his face, sallow as paper, his body seemed to be strong, but his eyes were scattered, and then he looked carefully at his hands, but he did not find the calluses left by holding weapons all year round. The thick calluses on the hands are more like the ones left over from the use of farm tools all year round.

No matter how you look at it, this middle-aged man is not a sergeant, but an ordinary person, the kind who works every day. And looking at his complexion, he should have not eaten rice for a few days.

"Don't be in a hurry, speak slowly. Yu Sheng looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said softly: "I know that you are not a sergeant, but a common man, and the people of the enclave are the people of my Dongwang Mansion. ”

"My lord!" When the middle-aged man heard this, his eyes immediately rolled with tears, he kowtowed violently, bowed to the rest of his life, and said loudly: "Please let the adults call us the shots and save the lives of my wife and children!"

"Please let us be the masters!Save the lives of our loved ones!" The people behind the middle-aged man knelt down at the same time, pleading loudly.

Yu Sheng's eyes were cold, and he glanced back at the officer who was being restrained by two sergeants. The two officers felt a real chill in the eyes of the rest of their lives, and the two people who were stabbed felt cold on their backs, and they knelt on the ground in a daze, not daring to say a word.

"Speak slowly, tell me the ins and outs, and explain it to me. Yu Sheng glared at the two officers, turned back again, and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him.

"Yes...... It's ......" The middle-aged man straightened up, wiped his tears with his rough hands, and said, "We are all natives of Changxiang City, and we ...... a few days ago."

The middle-aged man muttered that after a while, the rest of his life would figure out the ins and outs of Changxiang City.

Changxiang City, originally called Changxiang, is a small village in the middle of a mountain stream. Later, the leader of the enclave conquered the Quartet to unify the whole territory, and found that the terrain of Changxiang was dangerous and could be used as a fortress, so he ordered the sergeants to build Changxiang City.

This place is poor and remote, and there are many mountains nearby, except for a few flat lands in front of and behind the city, surrounded by barren mountains, the establishment of Changxiang City, not only did not let the people enjoy happiness, but occupied not a lot of arable land, and built the city wall, which made the people's life even more miserable.

Three days ago, the city lord of Changxiang City received an order, Changxiang City is a traffic choke point, the general in charge of defense ordered the city lord of Changxiang to defend strictly, and sent a deputy general to lead 8,000 soldiers into Changxiang City, which made the already poor Changxiang City even more unbearable.

Originally, all the sergeants were stationed in Changxiang City, but the adjutant general in charge seemed to have received some news and urgently withdrew all the sergeants.

Before leaving, the lord of Changxiang ordered all the people to be taken away, saying that he wanted to leave an empty city for the enemy.

Later, someone suggested that if it was really an empty city, I was afraid that the enemy army would not enter it easily, so I left two hundred people and threatened the lives of their relatives to let them pretend to be enclave sergeants to deceive the trust of the Dongfu sergeants and let them enter the city.

When leaving, the enclave sergeant took away all the rations, livestock, and equipment in the city, and destroyed all the fortifications of the city, intending to besiege the Dongfu sergeant in Changxiang City and catch turtles in the urn.

Yu Sheng quietly listened to the middle-aged man's words, looked at his teary eyes, and was furious.

"Damn. Yu Sheng turned around, rushed at one of the officers, went up and kicked directly in the lower abdomen of this person, he didn't use his fighting spirit this kick, but he used ten percent of his strength. The officer was kicked in the lower abdomen by Yu Sheng, and immediately squirted out all the food of the previous night, his throat made a hoarse sound, his eyes were wide, and his head was on the grass in front of him, and he was in pain.

"Are you fucking human?" Yu Sheng pointed to another older officer, and was about to step forward to make a move, but he heard the sound of footsteps behind him, so he stopped.

When I looked back, I saw several sergeants dragging a few dummies made of straw, came to Yu Sheng's side, put the straw men at his feet, and said, "General, there are no fortifications on the city wall, and only these dummies have been found on it." ”

Yu Sheng fixed his eyes on these dummies, clearly wearing the standard armor of the enclave sergeant, looking at these dummies, his heart was even more angry, he turned around sharply, pulled out the long knife at his waist, and was about to cut the officer in front of him.

"General, don't do it! We are also forced!" The older officer saw that he was about to kill people for the rest of his life, and at the critical moment of survival, he immediately opened his mouth and said: "If we don't do this errand, our family will not escape the doom!"

"Fuck your fart!" Yu Sheng stepped forward, cut it down, and cut off the head of the officer who was kicked down by himself in front of him, blood rolled out, raised the long knife, pointed at the elderly sergeant in front of him, and said: "For the soldiers, the people are the foundation, the people work hard every day, what you wear, what you bring, what you eat, which one is not the people's?

After that, Yu Sheng raised his knife and was about to slash downward, and all the people behind him straightened their necks and looked forward one after another, with different expressions in their eyes, or frightened, or ecstatic, or dodging. They couldn't take revenge with their own hands, and they didn't dare to do anything to the enclave sergeants, and at this moment, they were in charge for the rest of their lives, and they really cut down the two officers in front of them, which was a great pleasure in the hearts of these people.

"I know that there is no life or death. The officer looked at the rest of his life, and at this moment he had to kill himself, so he simply let it go, and opened his mouth and said loudly: "But the general is indiscriminate and kills people directly, I don't accept it!"

When Yu Sheng heard this, he stopped the knife in his hand, glanced at the officer with more interest, and asked, "What are you dissatisfied with?" ”

He was not surprised that he had killed countless people before the rest of his life, and it was not uncommon to kill enemy prisoners on the battlefield, but the dying person was either crying, emptying everything, or cursing desperately, which he was not surprised, but the officer in front of him was very calm, and although his tone was rapid, he was full of confidence, which made him curious in his heart.

"The two of us are just heralds, responsible for bringing the general's army into the city, and firing fireworks at the first time, informing the troops who are in ambush on all sides to surround Changxiang City. This task is to be dead or alive, but the general knows, why did the two of us receive this task?" The old officer spoke loudly, not at all as he had before he died, and spoke righteously and strictly.

"Interesting. Yu Sheng was obviously curious about the older officer in front of him, but he didn't care at all about what this person said, what he was interested in was this person's courage.

There is only such a kind of person, the more he is on the verge of death, the more he lets go of everything, and this kind of person can often burst out with unimaginable courage at critical moments. It is said that they are not afraid of danger, but they are not, this kind of person is just before death, and suddenly becomes not afraid of life and death, and in ordinary moments, they behave like ordinary people. When Fang compared the knife to this person's neck for the rest of his life, this person was just as frightened as he dared not move, and now he wanted to raise the knife to cut him for the rest of his life, but he was not afraid at all.

"Your generals have formulated a plan, and someone must implement it, whether you are unlucky, framed, or unspeakable, if you take it, you will take it, and you will still die. Yu Sheng looked at the officer kneeling on the ground in front of him and smiled lightly, he was curious about this person, but not to the point of sparing his life.

"That's because the two of us don't want to participate in the battle against the Dongwang Mansion, we are the Lord and the faction!" The officer suddenly roared and said, "The main general in charge of the defense near Wufeng City is trying his best to lead the battle, as long as the army wants to make peace, whether it is an officer or a soldier, no one will end well." It was only because the private conversation between the two of us was overheard by others and reported to the adjutant that the two of us were dispatched, and at the same time the two of us were captured, and if we did not do this, our relatives died, if we defected, our relatives died, and if we did not come, the whole family died together. General, if it were you, how would you choose?"

When Yu Sheng heard this person say this, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Is there still a side of the Qindong Prince's Mansion in this enclave? The leader of the enclave has unified the entire territory of the enclave, is it not monolithic among them?

In the long-term confrontation with the enclave before, he had never heard relevant information in his life, and he didn't know it before, for the East Prince's Mansion, inside the enclave, there was also a saying that the main battle lord was in peace.

Yu Sheng frowned slightly, did not speak, but put the long knife in his hand back into his waist, turned back to the two hundred people in front of him and said: "Okay, you get up, you should go home and go home, this city will be under the jurisdiction of the East Wangfu in the future, your relatives, I will find a way to rescue you." ”

The middle-aged man kneeling in front of him heard this, glared at the officer behind him fiercely, and then kowtowed to Yu Sheng, didn't speak, stood up, turned around and left.

The rest of the people, some kowtowed and left, and some cried for the rest of their lives for a while, but the rest of the people were resolute, and the people had no choice but to turn around and leave.

Yu Sheng ordered several sergeants to distribute the rations they carried to the two hundred people in the city, who had not eaten water and rice for three days, and they were afraid that they would not be able to hold on for a long time. Our side has just experienced a hearty battle, and has captured a lot of military rations, even if some are divided, there are still a lot, enough for these few days of battle.

When the people received the rations, they were so grateful that they bowed their heads one after another, and under the escort of a group of black-armored sergeants, they went home.

The people dispersed, and Yu Sheng turned around and looked at the elderly officer who was still kneeling on the ground in front of him, and asked with more interest: "There is still a main battle lord and a main peace in your enclave, this is the first time I have heard of it." ”

At this moment, the corpse of the officer who had just been beheaded for the rest of his life had been dragged away by the sergeants, leaving only a red blood stain on the ground.

The officer was already ready to die, and before he died, he said what he wanted to say, and he died without regrets, but when he heard Yu Sheng say this, there was a turning point in his words, and his eyes immediately lit up, and he hurriedly returned: "It is divided into two factions, and the forces of the war and the two sides want to be, and they were in Wufeng City before, and there was a lot of trouble." ”

"Interesting. Yu Sheng showed a playful smile, looked at the officer in front of him, and said softly: "You and me, talk about it in detail." ”
