Li Xin led his army into the city. Five hundred people were sent out to pursue Xiang Liang, and the remaining people maintained order in the city.
There was no way, the fire was not extinguished, the city was in chaos, and some people took the opportunity to loot property. Everyone in Wujun City is in danger, like a hell on earth.
Li Shui and Li Xin discussed it and divided the remaining troops into three hundred teams. Wu Juncheng was also divided into 300 blocks. Each team is responsible for one piece.
In this way, responsibilities are clearly defined, and each team is often responsible for only three to five households and a dozen people. Whenever someone is doing evil in their own area, they can be arrested quickly.
The order in the city quickly settled down.
Li Shui and Li Xin's thunderous methods gave the people in Wujun City a glimmer of hope. Originally they thought that if the imperial army won, they would launch an army and plunder. In fact, this has always been the unspoken rule of war.
Regardless of whether they are thieves or soldiers, as long as they attack the city, they will attack the people.
But what the court is doing now makes them surprised and happy. Soon, they began to refer to the imperial army as rebels.
By daybreak, the city had completely settled down. Li Xin said to Li Shui with some emotion: "I just strictly forbid the soldiers from harming the people, and the people are so grateful. Isn't it a matter of course that Qiu has committed no crime?"
Li Shui hummed: "It's not that you and I are so kind, it's just the foil of our peers."
While the two were sighing, the giant man next to them came over with a flattering look and said to Li Shui: "My lord, I have already helped General Li Xin write it. If the two adults have no objections, I will go and publish the list." Announced.”
Li Xin looked at the two of them in confusion: "What have you written for me?"
The giant man coughed dryly and said nothing.
Li Shui glanced at the paper a few times, nodded with satisfaction, and handed it to Li Xin.
Li Xin looked at it briefly, and his face suddenly turned red. This is like a notice, written in Li Xin's tone. The content is how much he admires the banished immortal, and how the banished immortal knows things like a god. Without the banished immortal, Wujun City would not be easily captured. From then on, Li Xin bowed to the banished immortal, respected him as the God of War, and so on.
Li Xin reached out and was about to tear up the paper, but then he thought about it. According to Li Shui's character, he probably couldn't escape this kind of thing. If he sternly refuses, this guy might add fuel to the fire and make his own decision public.
So Li Xin slowly shook his head and said to the giant man: "Your notice is not written like this. This general never talks like this."
The giant man suddenly smiled: "The official has already thought of it, so he prepared another one."
Li Xin took the piece of paper in confusion, glanced at it casually, and was speechless: the content on this piece of paper was not much different from the previous one. The only difference was that there were no uncommon words or quotations from scriptures. .
The giant man smiled and asked, "What do you think, general?"
Li Xin said angrily: "Just do whatever you want."
Li Shui saw the surprised look on the giant's face and said with a smile: "This is the spoken language in Xianyang City recently. Many people are learning to speak it, and they all learned it from me."
The giant man said oh, and he could see that Li Xin was a little annoyed, so he didn't dare to ask anymore. But one can guess that Li Xin asked him to handle the matter on his own.
So he smiled awkwardly, turned around and left.
Li Xin and Li Shui walked around the city and finally stopped in front of the Sheriff's Mansion.
The Sheriff's Mansion is now only a pile of ruins. In front of the ruins, there were more than thirty corpses.
Wu Gang knelt in front of Wu Yu and burst into tears.
Logically speaking, Wu Gang once surrendered to Xiang Liang and was considered a rebel.
But after all, he served the city well, and Wu Yu's death was quite tragic, so Li Shui and Li Xin did not make things difficult for him.
A soldier walked up to Li Xin and whispered: "He has been crying non-stop since he entered the city. He has been crying for several hours."
Li Xin frowned.
Suddenly, Wu Gang yelled and vomited blood from his mouth. The whole person swayed and fell to the ground.
A soldier quickly walked over and helped him up from the ground.
Li Xin frowned, turned around and said, "Military doctor."
A doctor came over, examined Wu Gang, and then said to Li Xin: "Master Wu is overly sad. As long as he takes good care of himself and stops being overjoyed or sad, there is no need to worry about his life."
Li Shui sighed: "This is difficult. My family has just been destroyed, how can I not be so sad?"
Li Xin stared at Wu Gang for a while, then suddenly walked over and patted his face.
Wu Gang opened his eyes drowsily.
Li Xin shouted loudly: "Your whole family was killed, did you know?"
Li Shui was a little confused: What is Li Xin doing? Do you think he died not soon enough?
The military doctor next to him also hesitated to speak, but after thinking about it, he still did not dare to speak.
Wu Gang's confused eyes showed deep hatred: "Of course I know."
Li Xin sneered: "I don't think you know. The enemy who destroyed the clan has fled, but you are here crying endlessly. Do you dare not take revenge? Or do you think you can't take revenge?"
When Wu Gang heard this, his anger suddenly surged up, and he seemed ready to vomit blood at any moment.
Li Xin didn't give him a chance to speak, and asked loudly: "I will give you five hundred people, can you bring Xiang Liang's head?"
Wu Gang's eyes lit up and he shouted at the top of his lungs: "No matter where Xiang Liang escapes, I will definitely cut off his head."
Li Xin nodded: "Okay, I will give you five hundred people and give you a chance to prove that you are not a coward."
Five hundred people were quickly selected, and they all stood behind Wu Gang.
Wu Gang glanced at Li Xin, suddenly knelt down devoutly, and said sincerely: "Thank you, General."
Li Xin kicked him: "Get out of here."
Wu Gang left with five hundred people. He seemed to have found his soul and had a purpose in life.
Li Shui patted Li Xin on the shoulder: "Brother Li, I found that you are also somewhat resourceful and not just a martial artist. I seemed to have underestimated you in the past."
Li Xin rolled his eyes: "My name is Zangzhuo. Do you understand Zangzhuo?"
At this time, Young Master Gao came. After paying homage to Li Shui respectfully, he turned to look at Li Xin, and then said with a smile: "I didn't expect General Li to be so humble. It's admirable."
Li Xin chuckled: "This general is indeed very humble."
While he was talking, Shen Lun also came and said to Li Xin with admiration: "The general can look directly at his own shortcomings and praise the abilities of others. This magnanimity can serve as a model for others."
Li Xin was a little puzzled: "What are you talking about?"
Li Xin continued to patrol the city with doubts. Gradually, he discovered that many people in the city were secretly looking at him. Not only the Qin soldiers, but also the common people.
Finally, Li Xin couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed a pawn and asked, "What on earth is going on?"
The soldier laughed dryly and said, "Maybe it's because of the general's notice."
Li Xin suddenly understood: Could it be that the notice was drawn up by Ju Fu? Has he already posted it? This guy...
Li Xin almost cursed and led the people to the city gate in a hurry.
Many people were crowding there to read the notice. Most people do not know the Chinese characters, but some people who know the Chinese characters are enthusiastically helping them to read.
After reading it, the literate man said very modestly: "Actually, I don't know many words, but this notice is written very plainly and the words used are also very simple. I can actually understand it." .”
The people commented one after another: "It can be seen that General Li Xin sincerely recommended the immortal as the God of War. Otherwise, why would he use such simple words? This is obviously because he is worried that we can't understand it."
Li Xin almost vomited blood.
The soldier next to him whispered: "General, do you want me to tear down the notice?"
Li Xin shook his head: "That's all. At least you have earned a reputation for being generous now. If you tear up the notice, you will only have a bad reputation."
The pawn said oh and said no more words.
Li Xin scratched his head and thought: Sure enough, everyone who bets with Brother Huai will not end well.
…………
At night, Songjiazhuang, Song’s old lady, Song Liu. I had just laid down and was about to fall asleep when suddenly the door of the house was knocked.
Nowadays, with the war and chaos, Song Liu was a little panicked when he heard the knock on the door.
He sat up from the couch and listened carefully to what was going on outside.
After a while, Song Jia ran over in a panic and said, "Master, master, Xiang Liang is here."
Song Liu suspected that he heard wrongly: "Who is coming?"
Song Jia said: "Xiang Liang raised an army against Qin."
Song Liu shivered immediately, and then began to feel pain.
Last time, it was just Xiang Liang's men who came here, but the result was that the soldiers were really inferior to the bandits, and they almost plundered all the savings he had accumulated over the years.
Now Xiang Liang himself is here? Then will he take away all the Songjiazhuang?
But Song Liu didn't have the guts to refuse Xiang Liang, after all, he had a sword in his hand.
So Song Liu forced a smile and said: "Please come quickly."
When Song Liu rushed to the courtyard, he saw Xiang Liang had come in.
The moment he saw Xiang Liang, he was completely stunned.
Because Xiang Liang only had five people left to follow him. They all looked exhausted, sweating profusely, and looked very embarrassed.
Song Liu looked at Xiang Liang in surprise: "General Xiang, this is..."
Xiang Liang sighed and said, "Failed."
Xiang Liang did not hide it. After all, this kind of news would come soon.
When Song Liu heard that Xiang Liang was defeated, he was immediately overjoyed. This is what he thinks about day and night. Since he was harmed last time, the more Song Liu thought about it, the more he felt that the imperial court was better.
Perhaps it was too much of a surprise, and Song Liu didn't hide his emotions well. Xiang Liang was discovered immediately.
Xiang Liang looked gloomy and said calmly: "Song Taigong seemed a little happy when he heard that I was defeated."
Song Liu suddenly panicked. When a person is at a critical moment of life and death, his mind always turns very fast. He suddenly showed a surprised expression: "What? The general was defeated? I just thought it was the Qin people who were defeated."
Xiang Liang was stunned for a moment and thought: So this is it?
But Song Liu was already sitting on the ground, crying loudly: "The general is the pillar of our great Chu. Today the general is defeated, when will the great Chu be able to return to the country? I think about this and my heart is broken."
Xiang Liang was moved and helped Song Liu up, comforting him: "Don't worry, Grandfather, the Japanese general will regroup if he doesn't."
Song Liu nodded inconsistently: "That's good, that's good."
Xiang Liang patted Song Liu on the shoulder: "At that time, I hope the old lady will send some of his disciples to help me."
Song Liu suddenly felt a little pain in his body, but looking at the sword on Xiang Liang's waist, he didn't dare to say no.
Xiang Liang smiled with satisfaction, then strode into the main hall and said, "Hurry up and serve the food and wine."
Song Jia looked at Song Liu, who nodded helplessly. So Song Jia quickly went to prepare the wine and food.
Xiang Liang did not regard himself as an outsider, even though he was defeated and only five men were left. But in his eyes, he was still the future ruler of the world, and people like Song Liu were just his subjects.
From that day on, Xiang Liang ate and drank in the old house of the Song family, shouting and drinking. Song Liu, on the other hand, was more like a guest.
Song Liu thought about leaving his old house and informing others. But the five men under Xiang Liang watched them closely and no one was allowed to go out.
Xiang Liang's people all came out of the blood sea of the mountain of corpses. How could Song Liu dare to fight? I can only hold my nose and admit it.
But in the dead of night, Song Liu always stared at the bright moon in the sky, secretly sighing in his heart: Why haven't the imperial army come yet? The rebel chieftain was not caught, so did they give up now? Alas, these people are ineffective and have betrayed His Majesty's trust.
