"Open the door! Open the door! Do you hear me? Open the door!"
Outside a private house, a group of Chu soldiers, led by an officer, pounded the closed door.
Behind the door, a family of five huddled under the table and kept trembling. The man of the house looked at the shaking door bolt and did not dare to take a breath.
After banging on the door to no avail, the Chu army officer became angry and yelled at his subordinates behind him: "Break open the door for me!"
The next moment, several soldiers rolled up their sleeves and immediately began to smash the door. Not long after, the closed door was kicked open and they fell heavily to the ground.
Seeing this, the male host climbed out from under the table, knelt in front of the officer and begged: "Master, please calm down, sir, please calm down~"
The Chu army officer glanced sideways, grabbed the male host's hair, lifted him off the ground, and without saying a word, slapped him hard on the face, and shouted sternly: "Damn it, are you deaf for asking you to open the door?" ? The military master has been waiting outside the door for so long, looking for death!"
The male host covered his swollen cheek and begged for mercy vaguely: "Master Jun, I'm so scared..."
"Hmph..." the officer snorted coldly, then pushed him to the ground and waved his hand: "Move all the valuable things away, and smash everything that can't be moved!"
After receiving the order, the subordinates immediately started destroying all visible objects in the house with a ferocious smile. Other Chu soldiers even moved all the pots and pans outside the house.
The male master sat slumped on the ground, not daring to resist at all. Facing this group of robbers, he dared not speak out in anger. He was content with just hoping that his family would be safe.
After the officer walked around the room for a while, he suddenly saw someone under the table. He frowned and stepped forward to overturn the table.
"mother!"
A girl who was just fifteen years old was so frightened that she immediately threw herself into her mother's arms and burst into tears.
"Yohe, hehehe..."
When the officer saw the girl's appearance, he couldn't help but smile ferociously. He looked back at the male host and joked: "Is this your daughter?"
When the man of the house heard this, he immediately crawled and knelt in front of the officer, begging hard: "Master, you can do whatever you want with the things in the house, but can you let your little family go?"
The officer kicked the male host to his feet and cursed: "Are you negotiating terms with the military master? Humph, it's been a hard march all the way. It's a blessing for the military master to let your daughter serve her, so don't be ignorant!"
After saying that, he went to catch the girl with a wicked smile.
"Mom, save me!"
"Let my daughter go!"
The mother held her daughter's hand tightly to prevent her from leaving her side, but the power gap was too great. The girl was finally snatched away by the officer, who carried her on his shoulders with a lewd smile and walked out of the house.
"No, no, let go of my daughter! Let go of my daughter!"
Seeing that his own flesh and blood were about to suffer, the male host rushed forward desperately and hugged the officer's leg tightly.
"Fuck, let go, do you hear me let go?"
The officer's movement was blocked and he couldn't help but became furious and yelled at the man at his feet.
But the man of the house gritted his teeth and hugged the officer's thigh tightly, and the two of them kept moving to the street.
"If you don't eat the toast, you'll be fined! Come here! Beat him up!"
The officer was furious and roared. In an instant, four Chu soldiers swarmed up and beat the man at the officer's feet.
In the end, the man's face was covered with blood, and he weakly let go of his hand. He watched helplessly as his daughter was taken away by the officer, and disappeared at the end of the street amidst her constant struggles and shouts.
The same scene happened in every corner of Yongzhou City, because it was said beforehand that 90% of all materials looted in the city must be turned over in full, and 10% can be kept for yourself.
This rule truly transformed this group of tiger and wolf warriors into beasts, and they began to plunder everywhere in the city unscrupulously.
Among them, the most miserable ones were the female relatives, who became the target of the Chu army to vent their long-standing grievances.
In the Chu army, which was generally illiterate, all etiquette, integrity, and feelings of family and country were completely forgotten, and what remained was only the most primitive animal nature since the birth of mankind.
Carloads of women in the city were escorted to the "laundry camp" in the military camp, where they were used as military prostitutes for the Chu soldiers to vent their anger.
Zhang Ting felt very uncomfortable when he saw the countless women imprisoned in the laundry camp. After all, these women were all from the same hometown.
"That's all, this is the way the world is. It's better to take care of your own affairs."
After trying to convince himself, Zhang Ting stopped paying attention to them and planned to go to other camps to get some fresh air.
"Husband! Are you your husband?"
At this moment, a familiar shout echoed in Zhang Ting's ears. He was startled and quickly looked back, his eyes suddenly widening.
In the military camp not far away, I saw a woman and child in her mid-twenties, unkempt face, lying at the entrance of the camp and shouting loudly to him.
Isn't this his wife?
Seeing this, Zhang Ting rushed to the military camp and shouted: "Why are you here? Go back!"
The woman and child cried: "These soldiers rushed into my house indiscriminately and dragged me here without saying a word. Husband, please save me quickly."
But when he rushed to the entrance of the camp, he was stopped by two guards holding knives: "You are brave, you dare to break into the important area of the military camp, do you want to die!"
Zhang Ting hurriedly flattered: "Two military masters, that is my wife, all this is a misunderstanding, please let her go?"
When the two guards heard this, they ignored it at all: "How dare you, no matter who it is, you can't violate military regulations, not even your wife!"
Zhang Ting begged hard: "Master, General Qin promised us that he would not harm my family. She is really my wife. Let her go."
"Go away!" A guard roughly pushed Zhang Ting to the ground and yelled, "No one is allowed to come near without General Qin's permission, otherwise he will be killed without mercy!"
Hearing this, Zhang Ting struggled to get up from the ground and shouted to his wife: "Just wait a moment, I'll beg General Qin to let you go. Wait a moment, I'll be right back!"
He jogged all the way, asking around where Qin Zongquan was, and finally found Qin Zongquan drinking in a wine shop at the gate of the city.
After listening to Zhang Ting's words, Qin Zongquan sneered and said to him sincerely: "I said that I will not harm your family.
But I didn’t say that I wouldn’t use her as a military commander, not to mention that it was an order given by the Prime Minister. I have to obey the order. Don’t worry, when this battle is over,
I, the general, will find you a good girl. Leave your yellow-faced woman alone and go down to rest. "
Zhang Ting heard this and said loudly: "General Qin, why did you go back on your promise? How did you promise us in the first place and then completely forget it in just one day?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Zongquan stood up and punched Zhang Ting in the lower abdomen, causing him so much pain that he couldn't stand up straight.
"Damn it, who do you think you are? They're just a bunch of untouchables. Why should I keep my word with you? Why don't I just play with your woman?"
What are you so dissatisfied with? If you dare to talk to me like this again, I will chop you into pieces, come on! Throw him out, spoil the fun! "
At this time, Zhang Ting was filled with regret. He really didn't expect that his surrender would lead to such a result. If he had listened to Zhu Xuan yesterday and fought to the death with the enemy, even if he died in battle, he would have fulfilled his duty to protect his family.
But it was too late. Zhang Ting opened his mouth wide, veins popped out on his forehead, and roared silently...
