The sharp knife stabbed into Chen Yongren's heart, and bright red blood spurted on Liu Xikun's face, which was extremely hot.
"Don't delay any longer, let's go!"
Cai Qicang and Wu Xunqi were so anxious that they dragged Liu Xikun away who was blinded by blood.
Chen Yongren fell slowly. Before he lost consciousness, he seemed to hear shouts of death coming from the southeast, and couldn't help but smile with relief.
There are still more than 4,000 people in the tribal army's camp, and more than 2,000 of them are wounded soldiers. Naturally, no one can take care of them at this moment.
Nearly two thousand other people wrapped up Liu Xikun Jiugu and others and fled in panic towards the planned evacuation route.
As long as you cross the Bagua Mountain platform, enter the territory of the Zhou tribe, and then escape south into the mountains, you will be completely safe.
Unfortunately, they had only run three or four miles when they saw Song soldiers emerging from the woods ahead, with a Yan-character flag fluttering in the wind.
The fleeing army wanted to change direction immediately, but the Song army lined up in a row came up like a giant net.
The large net composed of more than 800 people seems a little thin, but it is tough and barbed, and it is not leaking.
Although people, motivated by the desire to survive, can often burst out with far greater fighting power than usual when fleeing for their lives, the more than two thousand natives were unable to organize an effective defense at all.
After just a slight contact, the Song army killed more than a hundred people, and the natives completely collapsed. Except for a few people who panicked and ran back, most of them dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for surrender.
In the end, there were only more than 300 private soldiers left at home who were still holding on, forming a circular formation to protect nearly 100 powerful disciples such as Liu Xikun and the chiefs of the tribes such as Jiu Gu in the middle.
The Song army ignored the kneeling natives and surrounded the circular formation, but did not launch an attack.
Seeing this, Wu Xunchi said in panic, "Are you planning to capture us alive?"
"No, what we committed was treason. Sooner or later, we will all die. There is no need to bother with this. What they want to capture alive is just the chiefs of the natives in order to control those tribes."
Facing a desperate situation, Cai Qicang had a clear understanding and judged Song Jun's intentions.
Some of the other powerful disciples had their hearts tensed, but they immediately broke when they heard these words.
"You mean, we...we are dead!? No...no no, I don't want to die..."
"No, no way... My Wang family has been a high-ranking family for generations, and my relatives and friends are all over the court. If these thieves dare to mess around, I can make their lives worse than death with a simple move of their fingers in my family..."
"Don't you dare? Did you see the word 'Yan' on the flag? Do you know what it means? It means that this is the direct subordinate of King Yan, and even King Yan himself is here!"
"Is King Yan here? Could it be that things have really been revealed at home? Then aren't we helpless and desperate?"
When this group of powerful children were in mourning, the chiefs of all tribes gathered around Jiugu, hoping that she could ask the gods for rescue.
Then a gossip quietly came over and privately translated what Cai Qicang and others said to Jiugu and others.
Jiu Gu was stunned after hearing this, "You mean, the king of the Song Dynasty doesn't want to kill us?"
The tongue man thought carefully for a while and explained, "As far as I know, the people of the Song Dynasty emphasized benevolence and righteousness, and liked to use the way of saints to govern the world. Even when dealing with rebellions, they mostly used appeasement and comfort. They didn't use troops if they could. Normally, the policy is to restrain the Yao and Miao barbarians in the territory. As long as they don't cause trouble, they can just let them go. Now that the Song Dynasty wants to bring this island under its control smoothly, I definitely hope that you can submit..."
Then the tribal leaders realized that they were still valuable to the Song Dynasty, so not only would they not die, but they might also be tolerated and treated favorably, so they no longer felt so uneasy.
Jiutani was also slightly relieved, and then frowned again, "Can Ryuro survive?"
The tongue man scratched his head, "Liu Langjun and his family have launched a rebellion. According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, even if you don't die, the end should not be much better. But I am not from the Song Dynasty, and I am just an interpreter. If the priest is willing to give me blessings, I will be grateful." Not enough."
"Huh? You mean I can save your life?" Jiu Gu was a little surprised.
The reason why the tongue man disclosed the information to the tribe leaders was for this reason, "Of course, the people of Song Dynasty rely on you to control the tribesmen, and they always have to show kindness. For the next little person, life or death does not matter, the people of Song Dynasty will definitely give it to the priests." It’s such a small thing.”
"Oh fine."
Jiu Gu agreed, then raised his eyes to look at Liu Xikun, and found that he was still in a state of despair. He couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and walked over with the tongue man.
Seeing that Liu Xikun's originally handsome face turned into a dirty red face, Jiu Gu felt very sorry and reached out to wipe it for him.
But the blood stains had already condensed, and it was impossible to wipe them clean with dry wiping. However, Liu Xikun woke up and said, "Stop wiping, we are going to die anyway."
Jiutani smiled, revealing two rows of big black teeth, "Don't worry, Ryuro, I have a way to save your life."
"What can I do?" Liu Xikun asked subconsciously.
"If the Song Dynasty government wants to successfully rule the tribes on the island, it will definitely give preferential treatment to us chiefs, especially me. I have strong prestige among the major tribes, and you are mine. If you marry the Pawan tribe in the future, the government will I should not pursue you at will anymore, and I will definitely use all my abilities to protect you..."
Jiu Gu said seriously, Liu Xikun was stunned at first, and then he figured out the reason, and his face showed emotion and love.
"My little chicken, my little fairy, you are so kind to me."
Liu Xikun hugged Jiugu excitedly, and then whispered in her ear, "All ambitions are broken, what's the point of living? Haha, what I can't get, others can't get it easily, I How could I allow you to help others rule my country? Also, if it weren’t for the great cause, how could I tolerate you, a stinky sow? You actually want to tie me to you for the rest of my life!? So you Better go to hell!"
It's like a whisper between lovers, so the speaker can't hear it clearly, and naturally there is no translation.
Jiu Gu couldn't understand, and his eyes were a little confused, but he could feel the lingering hatred and strong murderous intention in his tone.
Just when she was feeling deeply confused and uneasy, she felt severe pain in her abdomen and screamed, "Ah!"
But at some point, he had pulled out the dagger originally hanging on Liu Xikun's waist, held it in his hand, and stabbed it into Jiu Gu's round belly.
Jiutani's eyes widened, full of shock, pain, despair, and disbelief, and he tried his best to push Liu Xikun away.
But Liu Xikun, who was thin and slender, didn't know where the strength came from. He hugged Jiutani's thick neck with one hand, pulled out the dagger with his right hand, and stabbed Jiutani's side fiercely again.
"Huh? Do you really think you are a fairy?"
"You are just a dirty, disgusting, ugly, shameless, stupid, greedy... damn fat woman!"
After saying an adjective, Liu Xikun stabbed him hard, and a moment later Jiu Gu's flank turned into a hornet's nest.
Jiu Gu screamed miserably while struggling, like a wounded wild boar, running rampant among the crowd.
But Liu Xikun's left hand locked her like an iron hoop, hanging tightly around her neck even if his body was tossed around.
When he was about to die, Jiugu suddenly bit Liu Xikun's neck.
Just now it was Jiu Gu who was screaming, and now it's Liu Xikun who was screaming.
Liu Xikun raised his head and let out an inhuman roar. His body subconsciously leaned back desperately, trying to break away from this 'affectionate kiss'.
Jiu Gu couldn't push him away just now, but now Liu Xikun couldn't escape her.
Perhaps Jiu Gu used all his remaining strength on his jaws, his legs weakened, and he was carried down by Liu Xikun.
With a loud bang, the two conjoined men fell heavily to the ground, throwing up dust in the sky.
The sudden change happened so suddenly that everyone around him was stunned at first, and then hurriedly avoided it. For a moment, no one thought to step forward to stop or rescue.
When the dust settled, these people stared blankly at the two people stacked on the ground.
Liu Xikun was at the bottom and Jiu Gu was at the top, just like their usual positions.
Jiu Gu was motionless, probably out of breath.
Under her big mountain of flesh, Liu Xikun struggled and twitched, getting weaker and weaker. Finally, his legs straightened and everything stopped.
Seeing the two men dying together, both the powerful sons and the tribal leaders were all at a loss.
At this time, the Song troops surrounding the outside shouted in unison, "Float down and surrender, and those who stand will be killed! Fall down and surrender, and those who stand will be killed!..."
The sound was like thunder, destroying the last resistance of the private soldiers, and they dropped their weapons and fell to the ground one after another.
As soon as the human wall barrier collapsed, the people in the circle immediately shivered as if their clothes had been stripped and thrown into the cold wind.
Although Cai Qicang and others knew that they would die, they did not have the courage to die generously. They all lay prone in the dust, extremely humble.
The tribal leaders did not understand Song Jun's shouting, so they also imitated others to lie down. Many of them even stretched out their hands and feet without any knowledge, appearing particularly humble and obedient.
After the sergeant stepped forward to collect the weapons and clear a passage, Zhao Mengqi walked into the circle unhurriedly.
At first glance, I saw the big mountain of meat on the ground. At first, I almost thought it was some kind of monster with four legs, but when I took a closer look, I discovered that there was a corpse underneath.
"This is?"
Hearing this question, Wu Xunqi, who happened to be lying at Zhao Mengqi's feet, quickly answered, "Back to you, sir, this is the mastermind Liu Xikun, and the chief witch Jiugu of the Pawan tribe, they..."
Wu Xunqi lay on the ground and could only see Zhao Mengqi's iron shoes. Although he was not entirely sure, he still guessed that the person in front of him was King Yan.
So he briefly explained the identities of Liu Xikun and Jiu Gu without any concealment, as well as the various behaviors of people like him after arriving on the island. In his words, he naturally tried his best to push the blame on the powerful family and Liu Xikun, saying I was just forced to participate...
"In short, it was Liu Xikun who insisted on his own way that led to the attack on Lucheng."
Zhao Mengqi shook his head slightly and asked smoothly, "What's your name?"
"Sinner, Wu Xunqi." Wu Xunqi was overjoyed, thinking that he would be able to escape death by pleasing King Yan.
"Huh!? I...prematurely...ejaculated? What kind of bullshit name is this?"
Zhao Mengqi frowned, vaguely remembering that there was a stubborn and poisonous person in later generations with a name similar to this. However, he appeared on this island at this moment. It seemed that there was some arrangement somewhere.
On impulse, he kicked the person lying next to Wu Xunqi, "What's your name again?"
"Back, noble man, the name of the criminal...is Cai Qicang."
Oh, this is also a certain poison.
All poisons deserve to die, even if they have similar names!
So he raised his hand and greeted behind him, "Wu Qiong, drag these two guys out, chop them up, and throw their bodies into the wilderness..."
ah? Why behead someone just for giving a name?
The two of them were inexplicably horrified. Just when they wanted to complain, a big hand pinched their necks and dragged them away like little chickens.
Then, Zhao Mengqi asked a few people casually. Everyone was trembling. They couldn't figure out why the names of the two people who were dragged away were taboo, but they didn't dare to lie and answered honestly.
Then Zhao Mengqi thought for a while and shrugged as he found no more unlucky names.
"If it's stricter, you should be punished for treason and rebellion. However, I'm kind-hearted by nature and don't like killing, so I'll give you a chance to atone for your sins. After three years of hard labor, if you can change your mind and behave well, you may have success in the future. A glorious mission awaits you."
There is a lot of hard and heavy work to be done in developing Liuqiu. Although these powerful young people seem to be industrious, they have some physical strength. A little training may not necessarily prevent them from doing heavy work. It is better to squeeze out some value than to cut them off with a knife.
Moreover, it is difficult to say how many people can survive three years of hard labor...
In addition, Zhao Mengqi never thought about clearing out all the natives on the island, and naturalizing them is a long-term task. The most important thing is to teach them to speak Chinese, write Chinese characters, and switch to Han etiquette and customs. This is We need a lot of readers.
In Zhao Mengqi's plan, Liuqiu will become a place of exile for criminal officials in the future, which will not only reduce the number of people killed, but also help the natives to naturalize as soon as possible.
If the effect is good, we will do this every time we open up new territories.
These twenty or thirty powerful disciples did not know what the glorious mission mentioned by King Yan was, but they knew that at least they would not have to die, so they all expressed their gratitude...
Zhao Mengqi touched his nose and did not want to pay attention to the tribal leaders for the time being. Instead, he approached Liu Xikun and Jiugu's 'corpse mountain' with a playful attitude.
The dagger clenched tightly in Liu Xikun's hand was still stabbed deeply into Jiugu's body. A large amount of sticky blood flowed out from the holes in Jiugu's waist and abdomen, forming a pool of blood under the two of them.
Jiu Gu also bit Liu Xikun's neck tightly, her teeth completely sunk into the flesh, perhaps breaking a major artery, and steaming blood spurted into Jiu Gu's mouth. She didn't know how much she drank. More But it overflowed, forming another pool of blood under the two heads.
Gee, why do you feel like flesh and blood are connected until death?
Is this what love is? ?
Wait, Jiu Gu... The Du Cai of later generations seems to have the blood of the Pawan tribe, and the name of the Pawan tribe is Jiu Gu...
Well, since he's dead, so be it.
Zhao Mengqi thought for a while, considering that in order to naturalize the natives, it was not easy to provoke them too much, so he gave up the plan of exposing Jiugu's corpse to the wilderness. After all, this witch had a relatively large influence among the natives.
"Come here, dig a deep pit here, and bury these two people in this position. Remember, they must stay as they are, so that Jiu Gu will remember what it means to be indivisible for the rest of his life!"
After giving the instructions, Zhao Mengqi suddenly thought of it.
In the future, if someone unearths these two skeletons with weird postures, they may be able to imagine a touching love story.
It is said that I will love even if I die...
