Chapter 1125 Changping County Lord 73
Xining ate well, slept well, and even returned home to take a hot bath. But many people can’t stand it!
"The Huns bullied people too much. They insulted everyone in front of the city every day. They scolded everyone, and the words they said to the county master were simply unbearable..." Xun Liao ran to the big tent in military uniform and began to talk non-stop. .
I have been scolding him for seven or eight days, and it looks like he will continue to scold me.
Xining took the letter, looked at him sideways, and asked softly: "General, are you thirsty after talking? Come and make tea."
Xun Liao choked because the county lord had issued an order: "If you dare to go out of the city gate privately, you will be killed! Anyone who asks to fight will be whipped fifty times."
A county magistrate who dares to take action against a general who refuses to defend the city will definitely keep his word when it comes to serious matters. If he doesn't want to be caught as a model, humiliated and whipped in front of the officers and soldiers, or even lose his head, it is better not to ask for a fight.
Not asking for a war will not affect the curve of saving the country. So they are all dressed like this. The county boss must be able to see it, but why isn't he angry?
It seemed that this was not enough, so he continued to fan the flames: "They also insulted the King of Qinling. How could they be allowed to slander him like the King of Qinling who had a great reputation and died in battle?"
But look at the county leader, he is still the same, not angry at all. Xun Liao was so impressed that even his own father was scolded and he still took it calmly.
Well, I heard that the county owner is a concubine, and the King of Qinling is away fighting all the year round, so she must not have a strong family relationship, so it doesn't matter who calls her her biological father. Maybe she still had resentment, but now that she was scolded on her behalf, she was actually happy.
Then the price! Xun Liao looked serious: "They even insulted you, which is intolerable..."
Xining smiled: "General Xun, it seems that the Huns learned Chinese very well, and they can curse so many people."
Xun Liao...
He was at his wits end. The county chief was really in a state of indignity and anger. It felt like his fist was hitting the cotton, and all his anger was thrown into the water.
The tea was brewed and a maid brought it over. She was wearing coarse clothes, but her delicate face, hands, and decent manners could still tell that she was from the County Lord's Palace.
Xun Liao took the tea and drank it all in one breath. The martial artist was already rough, and after talking so much just now, his mouth was already dry.
After drinking, he put the tea cup into the lacquer tray and said: "Thank you!"
This made the maid's eyes widen. How could she drink tea so well?
Xining saw it funny and told the maid: "Stop making tea. Make some of the tea I drink and give it to the general to try."
The maid lowered her eyes and said, "Yes!" She got up and went to make tea nearby.
Xining continued to read and said leisurely: "In addition to the generals, there are several others who have already spoken to me. They scolded me for not being a man. You must know that I am the commander, and I am not a man in the first place. So what if I scold you? I scold you for listening to women. If so, kneel under my pomegranate skirt. In the Han Dynasty, there was a distinction between seniority and junior. Even if I am still an infant and I am a generation above him, if he is more noble than me, I still don’t need to think too much about other things. So many people died at once, but a few curses won’t kill us.”
Xun Liao shouted to Qi Ali: "But I'm angry!"
Xining rolled his eyes, Xun Liao's father was an official in the capital after all, how could he give birth to such a thick son.
Xun Liao quickly made amends: "I'm also angry for the county boss, they are too open-minded."
She put down the slip and said slowly: "Relieving anger does not necessarily involve beating, killing, or yelling. The general is also a smart man. I see that the general is also angry for me. I can teach him a move and he can relieve his anger. .”
When Xun Liao heard this, he immediately became energetic, as long as he could relieve his anger.
After Xining finished speaking with a smile, Xun Liao was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh: "That's high!"
Sighing secretly, this guy is not too old, I hope he can be saved.
The maid brought tea, one cup was placed at the county master's place, and one cup was placed at Xun Liao's place. Xun Liao happened to be happy and grabbed it. Unexpectedly, the tea soup was boiled and looked like a mess.
Xining continued to sigh, it seemed there was no hope!
The Huns who had not had time to leave the city, or people with Huns ancestry, had been living in fear, not knowing which day they would be caught and sent to the tower to be used as a shield. Or they were considered spies and were caught and executed.
These two possibilities, although the ways of death are different, one died by the arrows of the Huns and the other died by the swords of the Han people, actually they both have the same result, death! It depends on whether the death is pleasant and whether the appearance after death is better.
"Bang~" The door was kicked open.
Several soldiers with swords and guns rushed in.
The whole family in the room hugged each other in fear and trembled.
The man mustered up the courage, let go of his wife and children and stood up: "Masters, I am a Huns, but my wife and children are not. They are all Han. Please kill me if you want to!"
The leading sergeant sneered: "He is still a man. We Chinese women have never married the wrong person!"
The man's mouth was full of bitterness: "Thank you so much for your compliments. Don't stay here. Take me away."
"Ms.... dad..." His wife and children cried and rushed forward, kneeling and hugging his thighs. Crying until the sky is dark, it's like parting between life and death.
"Oh, stop crying, annoying!" The sergeant picked his ears with his little finger. Whenever the family cried, their heads hurt. He said in a rough voice: "Who said they wanted to kill you? They came to ask you." .”
Not to kill him? The man immediately nodded and bowed and asked: "Excuse me, Master Jun."
The sergeant asked: "Can you play the maqin?"
Ma Qin? The man stood there stunned.
The sergeant became impatient: "Will it happen? If it does, it will. If it doesn't, it won't!"
The man nodded immediately: "Yes, yes, I can pull!"
"Then you've been requisitioned, let's go!" The sergeant waved his hand, and two soldiers came up and took the man away.
Shouldn’t they be requisitioned and sent to be used as targets on the towers? The wife and children at home were kneeling behind and crying. The sergeant became angry: "Why are you crying!"
They were so frightened that they stopped immediately, but they still couldn't stop sobbing.
The sergeant shook his head: "Let me tell you, the men in your family have been requisitioned, and your family will just wait until they have food and meat."
In the middle of the night, suddenly the sound of maqin sounded from the tower.
Playing the maqin was originally desolate and distant, but playing it in the middle of the night aroused the homesickness of many Huns.
Xun Liao had already folded his clothes and lay down in the big tent. He also heard the sound of the piano that was so sobbing that he almost stopped laughing. I turned over and continued to sleep. I actually slept well that night.
Not only him, but all the officers and soldiers stationed in the towers and streets slept soundly. But the Huns camp was not so peaceful!
Many soldiers wiped their tears secretly, originally thinking that it would be over soon. They rushed into the city, robbed a wave of money, livestock and people, and returned home with a full load. But it’s been a month since I started playing. The weather is so cold and the snow keeps falling. I don’t know when I can go back, and I don’t know what’s going on with my family members at home...
