Lin Jiuxi ran so fast along the way that he was out of breath and looked in a miserable state.

"Surrender, I surrender! But I ask you, General, to send people to put out the forest fire. Otherwise, if the fire spreads, in addition to the civilians who have joined my Taoyuan Gang, some surrounding villages will also suffer losses!" Lin Jiuxi shouted loudly.

There were also many soldiers who could not bear it. They all heard the hoarse cries coming from the one burning in the fire, which sounded like the voices of evil spirits from hell.

And those people were not evil spirits from hell, they were just ordinary people.

"Since they have already joined your Taoyuan Gang, they are just bandits and no longer civilians of Nanzhao. Why do we need to put out the fire? Wouldn't it be better to wait for the fire to burn all these bandits to death?" General Lin didn't care about the people struggling in the fire. Anyway, Lin Jiuxi had already come out to surrender, so he only needed to take Lin Jiuxi to Beijing to report.

As for these people, in order to prevent them from "coming back to life", the best way to eradicate them is to burn them all to death.

"General! All the mistakes are my fault. Although we are called bandits, we have never committed any rape or robbery. We have always been honest farmers. How is this different from other civilians? Just because they gathered on this hill, did they commit a crime? A damnable mistake?" Lin Jiuxi was anxious and shouted, "General Lin, open your eyes and take a good look. They are a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people who are powerless. How could they be the bandits you mentioned? They are all citizens of our Nanzhao Kingdom! As a general of a country, aren't you afraid of chilling the hearts of the people?"

After all, four hundred soldiers were borrowed from Jizhou City, and they did not completely obey General Lin's orders.

The threat of death is indeed frightening.

Lin Jiuxi kicked the soldier who was approaching and ran into the woods, shouting, "If you won't save people, I will."

"Well, you guys! You were actually bewitched by that witch and didn't obey my orders." General Lin gritted his teeth in hatred, drew the knife from his waist, and wanted to chop at the sergeant's neck.

Although the fire was crackling, it was firmly confined by the protective belt and would no longer expand within the original burning range.

The flames could not burn the soil, and large areas of open space made it impossible for the fire to penetrate.

It was difficult for them to watch their brothers and sisters and the people struggling and burning to death in the fire.

"Since the general knows that military orders are as heavy as mountains, he should know that we are not his soldiers. We are soldiers protecting the people of Jizhou City, not people who follow the general to help him commit atrocities." The round-faced sergeant stood up and confronted General Lin.

The soldiers still looked at General Lin, reluctant to take action.

"They asked for it!" General Lin said without further ado, "Tie up Lin Jiuxi and bring him back to the city."

Many of the people General Lin brought with him were left in Jizhou City, and most of them were borrowed from the city lord. Therefore, the number of soldiers coming with him this time was almost the same between those in Beijing and those in Jizhou City.

They followed General Lin's team into the woods, but did not track Lin Jiuxi. Instead, they took knives and cut a circle of unburned woods halfway up the mountain to serve as a protective belt.

"People like you, who treat civilians like pigs and dogs and don't care about them at all, how can you care about the lives of soldiers! You are not worthy of being a general, you are just a coward."

"What do you want to do? Are you disobeying military orders?" General Lin pointed at the body of the adjutant he had just hacked to death with a fierce expression, "He will be your fate."

General Lin whipped the soldier closest to him with a whip and said, "Do you really want to die? Since you dare not listen to me, do you know that military orders are as heavy as mountains?"

But the soldiers did not listen to him and continued to cut down the trees with their weapons.

The fields around the Taoyuan Gang camp were carefully tended, which was enough to prove that what Lin Jiuxi said was true.

Now that they have united, their numbers are considerable. General Lin, with a few of his trusted aides, does not even dare to kill the disrespectful person.

"What are you doing? Did I tell you to do this?" General Lin became furious when he discovered what the soldiers had done.

A soldier walked over and wanted to tie Lin Jiuxi up.

Lin Jiuxi felt that General Lin was really stubborn, and more importantly, he was cold-hearted and didn't care about other people's lives at all.

General Lin had never experienced such insults in front of the army, and he was immediately furious: "What are you still standing there for? Go in quickly and catch this bitch. I will make her understand what to say and what not to say, and let her taste the ten tortures."

But more people stood up and looked at General Lin as if he were an enemy.

But General Lin could be so heartless, but she couldn't.

Her voice was deafening, and it infected all the soldiers present. They all looked at General Lin on his horse.

But because General Lin trusted the soldiers he brought with him more, he assigned them to the encirclement intersections, so that most of the people following General Lin now are soldiers from Jizhou City.

After all, this is a forest fire, and the method of watering is just a drop in the bucket and is completely insufficient.

If these more than 10,000 people were bandits who wielded knives to kill and rob, then Jizhou City would definitely not be what they saw when they entered the city.

"We are soldiers who protect the people of Jizhou City, not soldiers who kill people."

Except for a few of his trusted adjutants, the rest of the adjutants around him had seen their companions die tragically at the hands of General Lin, and they also felt a little resentful and did not defend him very much.

I'm just worried about my own life and future, so I don't dare to stand up like these people.

General Lin gritted his teeth and had to take a step back.

"Okay, you stay here and save people. I'll go and tie up that female bandit first!" General Lin no longer cared about them, but rode his horse towards the direction where Lin Jiuxi escaped.

Lin Jiuxi had practiced Qinggong with Xiaowu and Caicai for a few days, but the environment in the woods was complicated, and with her mediocre skills, she became exhausted in a short while.
