Chapter 271: Killing and surrendering prisoners

Some of them helped Youzhou soldiers enter the city the day before yesterday and attacked Qingzhou soldiers, while others were secret troops under Cadre Sun. They were reported by Zhang Liao and led their troops to capture them and tied up here.

Among the onlookers, there were also their relatives and friends. Seeing them tied up on the stage, they felt heartbroken, but were blocked by the Qingzhou army with a cold face and holding a sharp blade in their hands. They could not go over and say goodbye to them, and they all cried bitterly.

Among those tied, the leader was Sun Gan. At this time, his hands and feet were broken, his clothes were torn, covered in blood, and he was locked on a cross-shaped wooden stake by iron chains. He was dying, his head was hanging deep, as if he had lost consciousness.

Suddenly, the drums were loud. The people who were clamoring and scolding were stunned when they heard the sound, stopped and looked at the drums.

As soon as he rode a horse, he was a general with a cold face, wearing a heavy helmet, wearing a war armor, holding a large machete, with a sharp blade, and a cold light shining at the edge of the blade, which was extremely sharp. It was Zhang Liao, the prefect of Pingyuan.

This time, he had obtained the authorization of King Wuwei. As long as he did not violate the orders of King Wuwei the day before, he could fully deal with the guilty people. Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Yu Jin and others had all left the plain and headed towards Linzi. The matters here can be decided by Zhang Liao's words.

The war horse rushed to the front of everyone, Zhang Liao raised his sword and shouted loudly: "Stop it! You scolded these bandits to harm your family and insult your family's women. Have you ever thought about who put these bandits into the city?"

The people in the plain city were ashamed and unrefuted when they heard the sound, and they could only cover their faces and cry.

Zhang Liao looked angry and shouted to the sky: "The King of Wuwei is kind and generous, and loves the people as much as his son. You dare to regard him as a tyrant and follow the thief, so that you will suffer today's disaster! I have been ordered by the King of Wuwei. Anyone who follows the thief will be killed without mercy! At this point, what else can you say?"

The plain men tied to cross stakes on the wooden platform all looked pale and trembled when they heard this. Their families knew that this was inevitable, and they burst into tears, and they cried loudly, and they were terrible.

One of them gritted his teeth and said tremblingly: "General! We know that we are guilty and cannot escape death. We only ask the general to let my family go. The villain is in the dark and trembling, and we also thank the general for being kind to you!"

Zhang Liao sneered: "You don't need to say this. King Wuwei has an order. One person is guilty and will not implicate the whole family. Although you are guilty, your relatives do not need to die with you. However, in the important land of Pingyuan City, the families of these rebels should not be allowed to live for a long time. If they turn back, they will move them to the bank of the Yellow River to reclaim wasteland. If God opens his eyes and gives them a bite of food, they will still have a chance to survive."

The man tied up on the stage breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed all over, moaned in a low voice, thanking King Wuwei and General Zhang for their kindness and spared their lives.

Near the wooden platform, their relatives burst into tears. The crying woke Sun Gan, who was unconscious, raised his head and looked at their tragic crying. He understood the pain in his heart and knew that it was his behavior that implicated them.

At this time, Sun Gan had messy hair, his face was covered in blood, his clothes were torn and covered in filth. The wound on his right shoulder was already festering, and pus and blood kept dripping. His entire right arm had shrunk and looked very miserable. His legs were broken and he could not stand. He only tied his body with iron chains, hung him on the wooden stake, and swayed gently in the wind.

His eyes were covered with blood, and the turbid eyeballs turned and fell on Zhang Liao. They immediately became full of hatred. They gritted their teeth and moaned in a hoarse voice: "Zhang Liao! One person does things and one person does it. If you are a man, let them go, peel me up and execute me, and Ling Chi! If I scream, I will not be a man!"

Zhang Liao was furious and waved his sword and shouted angrily: "Palm! I am a man or not, you don't need to say it! You led Gongsun bandits into the city and harmed the people. You still have a face standing in the world, and you are so arrogant!"

Several Qingzhou soldiers ran over, grabbed Sun Gan, slapped him hard, and immediately made him bleed and fainted again.

Zhang Liao was angry a little, and turned around and looked at the people on the plains coldly. When the people saw his eyes coming, they were ashamed. They bowed to the ground and cried loudly, not daring to face him.

In just a moment, tens of thousands of people in the entire plain city all bowed to the ground, and their crying shook the sky.

Zhang Liao swept his eyes over their heads, landed on the captured Youzhou soldiers, shouting loudly: "You bandits, plunder, kill, set fire, do everything! Do you have any complaints when I was executed today?"

The bandits were so scared that they were half-dead. A few brave men held their bodies to kneel on the ground, kowtowed and wailed: "God of your life! The villain was also ordered to be sent by the superiors. Those who were forced to do those things by Tian Kai and Zou Dan were forced to do the same thing. The villain had nothing to do! I just hope that the general would let the villain go. The villain would be regarded as a tyrant in the next life to repay the general's great kindness!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw several women climbing up from the people in the plains, pointing at them crying and scolding, his anger was beyond words.

Zhang Liao snorted coldly, raised his sword and shouted: "You are following Gongsun Zan to rebel and invade our borders. It's fine. How dare you do such evil things in our army's territory. God is not tolerant! Now, according to the order of King Wuwei, anyone who plunders or kills people and sets fire in the plain city will be killed without mercy! I think God has the virtue of being alive, and you will have a whole body of corpse. You can enter the pit by yourself, so as not to be covered with swords and axes, and your body is not complete!"

Those Youzhou soldiers were not willing to walk into the pit themselves, and they all cried and complained.

Zhang Liao's face was cold, and his big sword slashed hard in the air and slashed heavily to the ground.

Seeing this, the swordsman and axe soldiers grabbed the Youzhou soldiers and threw them into a big pit. If anyone refused to leave, he would slash him down with one arm and let him roll on the ground and scream. He would die if he could not die. Seeing the Youzhou soldiers was so scared that they were even more heartbroken that they were crying.

Two thousand swords and axes, together, drove the Youzhou soldiers into the big pit. The Qingzhou soldiers behind them made way and ordered the plains to fill the soil.

After hearing the order, the people of the plains ran forward, picked up the tools, cried and cursed, and shoveled up the soil and sprinkled them at the Youzhou soldiers who harmed their relatives. If they could not grab the tools, they would use their hands to scatter the soil into the pit. Some people even picked up stones and threw them into the pit, and smashed them hard on the heads and faces of the Youzhou soldiers to vent their anger.

Tens of thousands of people fought together, and the speed was fast. Soon, all the soldiers in Youzhou were buried under the soil. The muffled screams came from the soil, and they finally returned to silence.

After these big pits were filled, the people of the plains cried and cursed for a while, then calmed down. They looked up at the dozens of Plain men on the platform, and they all started to cry again. They hated them for being confused and led the thief into the city, causing great disasters throughout the city. They also pity them for death today. They were all their fellow villagers, so how could they be cruel to see them being killed?

Zhang Liao did not say much, and ordered his subordinates to loudly announce the charges of the rebellion of the bandits and leading the bandits into the city, causing the disaster. Someone immediately dragged them off the stage and hung them on the gallows behind the high platform, and killed them three times.

In the air, the people of the plains who rebelled from the thief and the heroes under Sun Ka-shun were hanging their necks with ropes, their faces were blue and purple, and they were all dead. The breeze blew, and dozens of corpses were shaking gently, playing swings on the gallows.

Their relatives' shrill cry woke Sun Gan up again. He tried his best to raise his head and watched his subordinates being killed by Qingzhou soldiers. His heart was as if he was slashed and said with a hissing: "Zhang Liao, why don't you kill me if you come to me?"

Seeing that he woke up, Zhang Liao gritted his teeth and smiled angrily: "Sun Gan, you are such a dog! It was you who led the bandits into the city that caused the people in the city to suffer such a disaster. Look at these people, you have the family to be destroyed by you. Do you still have the face to see them?"

Sun Gan's eyes slowly glanced at the people, and saw anger, pain, pity, disappointment, and cold expressions on their haggard and tired faces. He couldn't help but feel ashamed of sweat and screamed: "Sun Gan is incompetent, affecting the people of the city, and the crime is greater than heaven! Today, Sun Gan is just dead, I just want all the elders to forget the kindness of the envoy Liu. When the envoy takes back the plains, he will work hard to assist the envoy and establish a Han Dynasty where the people live and work in peace and contentment!"

Zhang Liao was furious and jumped off his horse, ran to the stage, grabbed Sun Gan's blood-stained clothes on his chest and cursed: "Dog head! What good will Liu Bei give you? You have to work so hard for him! Look at the people in the city, all of your envoys are so cruel, you dare to mention the word "kindness"! If you talk about kindness, my king is very kind and righteous, and treats the people with great kindness. They rebel from the thieves, lead the thieves into the city, and harm our soldiers. The king did not blame them deeply, and rebuilt the city for them and let them live and work in peace. This is a great kindness! Only under the command of King Wuwei in our Han Dynasty can we have hope to conquer the four barbarians and bless the people!"

Sun Gan's cold eyes fell on Zhang Liao's face and sneered: "How can the sparrow know the ambition of a swan? What my lord wants to establish is a Han Dynasty where everyone is equal. Such ambition is not as good as your dog king! Zhang Liao, even if you are arrogant for a while, you are just a lackey. In the future, my lord will lead a large army back to the plain and will kill you and hang it on the top of the plain city. Let you see how my lord killed the dog king Liu Sha with his own hands and pacify the world!"

Zhang Liao was very angry when he heard this, and he didn't bother to say much to him. He pulled out the steel knife from his waist and shouted: "Sun Gan, I will kill you first and hang it on the plain city, so that you can see how my king of the family can pacify the world and kill Liu Bei and his rebellion!"

The cold light shone brightly when the sword wind blew. The extremely sharp steel knife slashed heavily on Sun Gan's neck. With a pounce, Sun Gan's bloody head was cut off from his neck and fell heavily onto the wooden platform. He still opened his eyes wide and gritted his teeth and let out a gentle sigh of unfulfilled ambitions.

The white dove flew up, divided the lanes in the air, and flew in the north and south directions.

The man who released the white dove was a masked man. He stood in a farmhouse more than ten miles north of the plain, with tears flowing down his face and wet the mask on his face.

He was originally the next soldier of Cadre Sun, but because his feet were slippery, he escaped from the plain in advance and had never died with Sun Gan. Now he has left the plain, he dared not go back, just because all the men in the city moved out to the bank of the Yellow River to cultivate farms and were monitored by Qingzhou soldiers. If he goes back, he will be monitored and will no longer be able to be the eyes and ears of the envoy.

Therefore, he fled to the north of the plain, and hid in a familiar farmhouse for a while before he dared to stand up and send out the message.

He also kept a few carrier pigeons in his hands, so he released them at this time and notified the two princes of the north and south of the north and south of the battle situation and results.

The white dove flew through the air, flew across Jizhou, and flew straight towards Youzhou.

Gongsun Zan had never received any news from the front. He was anxious and kept wandering around the Zhengtang, scratching his ears and cheeks. He felt his eyelids beating in waves. He was frightened and he didn't know what bad news would be.

Guan Jing, Shan Jing and others stood in the hall, looking at his green and red face, and were very worried. They looked at each other secretly but did not dare to speak.

When Gongsun Zan received the letter from Bai Ge, he took a look and his face turned pale and almost turned his back.

After reading it, Gongsun Zan trembled all over, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth and couldn't speak.

After a long time, he shouted angrily, pulled out the sword from his waist, and slashed hard on the table in the hall, cutting wood chips flying everywhere, and roared: "Liu Sha shot my brother with his own hands, killed my beloved general, and destroyed my soldiers. I am irreconcilable with Liu Thief!"

Guan Jing, Shan Jing, Yan Gang hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him. When he picked up the letter, his face was pale and frightened. The three of them looked at each other, but they didn't expect that Liu Sha was so fierce that he swallowed the 35,000 army in one bite, without even a bone left. It turned out that he was famous and the most powerful person in the world, and Liu Sha deserved it!

Gongsun Zan cursed loudly, crying in tears, and roared: "You go and recruit soldiers quickly. I want to get all my soldiers and kill Liu Sha and avenge my brothers!"

Guan Jing and others hurriedly persuaded him, saying that all 35,000 soldiers had been destroyed, and their vitality had been damaged. The Qingzhou army was strong and powerful, and it was difficult to defeat. Only by waiting with peace of mind and resting enough strength, then joining forces with Yuan Shao, Liu Yu and others to attack Liu Sha, can we have the hope of revenge.
