Chapter 519 Military Orders Are Like Mountains
At this time, Song Zhiyuan also discovered that many Zhenbei troops appeared behind them.
And the leader was none other than Zhao Jun.
Seeing that Zhao Song and others were about to rush forward to fight to the death with Zhao Jun and others, Song Zhiyuan hurried forward to stop them.
"Zhao Song, calm down and step back."
"Calm down, you hear me!"
"Everyone, get out of here!"
…
The Zhao army that arrived with their troops looked bewilderedly at their former brothers in front of them who were dressed in plain clothes and were ready to fight and kill them as soon as they saw them.
What is going on?
When he arrived just now, he thought these people were bandits, so he asked them to show their weapons.
After all, they were ordered to go to Beijia Village to suppress bandits.
Before he could take action, he recognized their identities and stopped his men from taking action.
I didn't even ask them why they appeared here, but they wanted to fight me and were saying things I couldn't understand.
What do you mean I'm here to kill them?
Who wants to kill them? We are here to suppress bandits!
Xu Qingfeng's eyes fell on Song Tianlei, whose face was pale, and he chuckled, "Isn't it strange that your men showed up here at this time to confront Song Zhiyuan and the others?"
Song Tianlei turned his head and looked at him, "What's there to guess? You guys did it, didn't you?"
"Not too stupid." Xu Qingfeng chuckled:
"What do you think will happen next? Should they just fight each other, or go back together to seek justice from Song Yi?"
Song Tianlei didn't say anything.
He chose the second one in his mind, but he didn't say it out loud.
In fact, many people have already had opinions about these things, but they dare not speak out, and it has not come to this point yet.
But now Song Yi asked them to kill their own people, which might have touched the bottom line.
Everyone is afraid that they will be the next.
really!
After hearing what Zhao Song said, Zhao Jun's face turned dark.
There was a look of disbelief on his face.
So, the bandits they came to suppress were actually their brothers who had shared life and death with them in the past?
Zhao Jun took a while before asking:
"Are these things you said true?
The general is not that kind of person and would not do such a thing."
At this moment, Zhao Jun still held on to a glimmer of hope.
How could the general they admire be such a person?
If they didn't meet them now, they would go up and kill Zhao Song and his men after they slaughtered everyone here.
When they learn the truth later, they will definitely collapse.
Who would have thought that the bandits they killed were actually their own people? How embarrassing it made them feel.
"It's true." Song Zhiyuan turned his head away, his eyes red.
He had been loyal to this person since he was young, and he had never refused his orders even though he knew they were inhumane. However, he never expected that he would treat him like this in the end.
This feeling... is so fucking uncomfortable.
He saved my life, haha, should I be grateful to him?
All five hundred brothers died, and he was the only one alive. Have you considered his feelings?
Song Zhiyuan wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.
He shook his head and said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Song Tianlei. He knows the truth!"
If the Xu family had not intervened, they would probably be fighting a bloody battle with the Xu family now.
After they survived a near-death experience and killed all the members of the Xu family, they also met their own end.
And this end was given to them by their own people.
Then they stepped on the corpses and blood of their own five hundred people and asked the court for credit, saying that they had successfully suppressed the bandits and were promoted to higher positions!
hehe!
Song Zhiyuan laughed, a laugh full of self-mockery.
Zhao Jun followed the path made clear by the crowd and saw Song Tianlei who had become a hostage.
At this time, Song Tianlei also raised his head, his eyes fell on Zhao Jun gloomily, and he said in a cold voice:
"Go ahead, kill them and all the people from Yuancheng!"
Seeing Zhao Jun was shocked and did nothing, Song Tianlei was angry:
"Zhao Jun, you dare to disobey military orders?
I order you to act immediately, do you hear me? "
Song Tianlei was angry.
General, this is the last time I will repay you for your kindness, Song Tianlei said in his heart.
Such a huge sin will be borne by him alone, as a way to repay the Song family for their cultivation over the years.
Zhao Jun shuddered, "General, these are our brothers. I can't bring myself to do this."
His voice was trembling.
Song Tianlei closed his eyes and said, "Do it!"
If we don't take action, more people will die.
Even if five hundred people die, at least two thousand can be saved.
Xu Qingfeng on the side sighed, "You are such a ruthless person, you have such a cruel heart."
Song Tianlei didn't say anything.
He has no choice but to choose between loyalty and righteousness.
Zhao Song pursed his lips. The general was right. They were soldiers and had to obey military orders. The order given to them by the general was to suppress the bandits. Military orders were as heavy as a mountain.
And these people are now bandits.
He drew his sword, pointed the tip at them, and said slowly:
"All officers and men, listen up and prepare to strangle these bandits before you."
As soon as this military order was issued, the people behind him were instantly in an uproar.
"How can they be called bandits? They are obviously our people."
"Are you asking us to kill each other? I won't do it. I can't do it."
"I won't do it either. If you do too many things that are against the will of heaven and earth, you will suffer retribution."
…
Zhao Jun saw that no one moved behind him, and he turned back with a frown on his face:
"Military orders are as heavy as a mountain, do you understand?
What, you want to tell me that all of you want to disobey military orders?"
There was some commotion among the crowd, but in the end only a very few people drew their swords.
Song Zhiyuan sighed, "Since you, Zhao Jun, want to kill us, we will definitely not sit still and wait for death.
But I tell you, even if you kill us now and wipe out the people in Yuancheng, believe it or not, you will be the ones to be pushed out as scapegoats next time.
He needs a legitimate reason to take over everything here. After all, it is said that the Xu family is rich enough to rival a country, so he can't help but want it."
Once human greed grows, it will spread infinitely.
Song Yi has not encountered any setbacks in these years, so his ambition has grown. He always feels that the people here allow him to manipulate them and everything here belongs to him.
The Xu family is also a family that he can control at will.
But Song Yi forgot that the Xu family has never been a family that is easy to bully.
Song Zhiyuan's words immediately caused a huge stir in everyone's hearts.
This time, many people shouted loudly.
"No, I don't want to die in vain."
"That's right, I don't want to die, and I don't want to do such a heinous thing."
…
Zhao Jun's face turned ugly, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Song Zhiyuan, you won, but do you know that if we disobey military orders, we will probably die when we return."
That's why he gave the order, he also wanted to protect the people behind him.
Their generals mean the same thing.
Song Zhiyuan smiled bitterly, "Either way is a dead end, but I want to die with a clear conscience, so I want to go back and question him, asking him why he is so cruel to us."
It was obvious that we had done our best for him, but ended up like this.
Who doesn’t have resentment in their heart?
"That's right, go back and ask him why he did this!"
"Go back and ask him to give us justice. We have done so much for him, why would he do this to us?"
"And we should go back and tell General Sun what he wants us to do, and let General Sun make the decision for us!"
…
The people around were clamoring to go back and seek justice.
Looking at this scene, Song Tianlei felt a chill in his heart.
It has come to this.
Song Tianlei was in a daze and didn't realize that he had regained his freedom.
Xu Qingfeng crossed his arms across his chest, once again expressing his admiration for the young lady.
The young lady really calculated that these people would go back to settle accounts with Song Yi instead of joining together to take over their Yuancheng.
As for him...
Xu Qingfeng's eyes fell on Song Tianlei, and the corners of his mouth curled up. "Is Song Tianlei very unhappy?"
Song Tianlei came to his senses and found that the other party had let him go.
He immediately said with a gloomy face, "Don't be complacent, there will be corpses everywhere here tonight."
After saying that, he took advantage of Xu Qingfeng's unpreparedness and rushed forward quickly, fearing that Xu Qingfeng would try to stop him again.
Little did he know that Xu Qingfeng had deliberately allowed him to be free.
"Stop right there, everyone!"
Song Tianlei yelled at the team that was clamoring to leave, "Do you know what you are doing?
You are disobeying military orders. Don't you know the consequences of disobeying military orders? Are you all crazy? "
"Yes, we are all crazy!" Song Zhiyuan glared at Song Tianlei:
"He's clearly just killing the donkey after it's done its work, so what's wrong with us asking for justice?"
Song Tianlei shook his head. "Think about the fifty thousand soldiers in the barracks, and the millions of civilians behind us..."
"Song Tianlei, you really disgust me. Even now, you are still pretending to be me." Song Zhiyuan interrupted him and sneered:
“Is it really for the people that he makes us do these evil things?
No, he did it to satisfy his own selfish desires.
Do you know how many innocent people in this desert city have died at our hands because of our ignorance and obedience?
It’s innumerable, really innumerable.”
This time, Song Zhiyuan was so angry that he wanted to cut off his hands.
Too many!
The images that he had been forced to forget before flooded into his mind one by one.
A child crying heart-wrenchingly in the fire.
People who knelt down and begged for mercy had their heads chopped off.
…
Song Zhiyuan's body trembled, so how much evil had he done?
What is owed must be repaid sooner or later, and now is the time for him to pay it back.
So, this is God's punishment for them.
"Song Zhiyuan, don't be impulsive!" Song Tianlei stretched out his hand to stop him and shook his head:
"Calm down first. There's still a way to save all of us from death. As long as..."
