Chapter 371 Disagreement

"Don't let me down!" Luga nodded to Orcot, turned around and continued, "I will have the army stationed in the city this afternoon. I am still worried about Lundinlum, because I don't know how many treacherous people are mixed in here, so let's wait and see."

"Well, General." Olcott called to Luca from behind, "Why don't you come to town for a walk? There is good wine, bread, and beautiful women here."

"No." Luca turned around and looked at him with a smile, and said to him: "I am very busy and don't have free time. Just bring the new soldiers to me."

Before Olcott could say anything more, Luca had already led his followers back to the nearby town.

Ten minutes later, just as he was returning to the city, Luca discovered that a soldier had dragged out the body of an old man from the Saxon's house. The old man had died in a hideous and miserable manner, and his entire body was covered in blood.

The soldier grabbed the body by one of its ankles and dragged it out of the house with all his might.

"What's going on?" Lu Jia saw such a scene. How could he be willing? When he left, he specifically told them not to act rashly against these guys, but what was going on now? The soldiers disobeyed his orders.

He rushed forward and pushed the soldier back against the wall. Before the soldier could come to his senses, Luca rushed forward like an angry lion, grabbed the soldier's collar, and asked him loudly: "Why, why did you disobey my order!"

The soldier was obviously terrified. He stared at Luka with wide eyes, not knowing what to do. Facing Luka's roar and questioning, he could only turn his head and point to the other end of the street with a trembling hand. Luka looked in the direction of his finger and saw many soldiers dragging dead bodies in the same direction.

"What is this for? What does this mean?" Luca felt that things were not that simple. He let go of the soldier and led Andrew and the guards along the street to the center of the town, where the totem stone worshiped by the Saxons was placed. There were a lot of corpses piled around the stone, all of them were the old people and even babies that Luca asked to be sheltered.

Several soldiers were carrying chopped firewood and piling it on the pile of corpses. There was no doubt that the soldiers had disobeyed his orders, which made him very unhappy and even extremely angry.

At this time, he saw Father Jiang Carlo in front of the pile of corpses. He was holding a Bible and muttering something. Was he trying to pray for the souls of these guys? Or was it Jiang Carlo who gave the order to massacre?

This was a challenge, a challenge to Luca's authority in the legion, which he could not tolerate. He ignored the obstruction of Andrew and others and rushed forward and threw himself in front of Father Jiang Carlo.

"What does this mean? What does this mean?" Luca pointed at the pile of corpses behind him and shouted at Father Jiang Carlo: "What did I say at that time? I ask you, what did I say at that time? Why, now explain to me why, why did you kill them, and even the children were not spared."

"Oh, Luca, don't be angry." Facing Luca's roar, Father Jiang Carlo slowly explained to Luca: "Unknown anger without understanding will allow the devil to occupy your heart."

"Okay! Okay!" Luca gritted his teeth, took two deep breaths, and tried to keep himself calm. He asked Father Jiang Carlo in a gentle tone: "Then, Father, please explain to me the doubts I am facing now, what I have seen with my own eyes, and what is going on?"

"It's unfortunate, respected Mr. Luca." Father Jiang Carlo said, reaching out and grabbing Luca's sleeve, pulling him behind the soldiers, where many wounded soldiers were lying. Judging from the wounds on their bodies, they were all wounded by swords.

"What's going on?" Luca asked Father Jiang Carlo.

"Well, it is very likely that they did not take your mercy on them seriously. After all, they are barbarians. It is not an exaggeration to describe them as beasts, because beasts are not human after all. They cannot understand what humans mean, so they have let you down."

Looking at these wounded soldiers and the piles of corpses behind them, his soldiers handled the situation very thoroughly after he left, treating all the abandoned living Saxons as enemies.

A soldier came up and whispered something into Father Jiang Carlo's ear. Father Jiang Carlo gestured for him to wait, then turned to look at Luca and said to him slowly, "General, the bodies have been piled up. Can we start burning them?"

As he spoke, he shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "After all, if these corpses are left here for too long, they will rot and stink. If the gods are angry and they bring down a plague, it will be troublesome!"

Facing Father Jiang Carlo's actions, Luca actually felt a lot of incredible things. There were many doubts, but he couldn't say it out. He began to wonder why this guy followed him. Looking at his expression, he was calm and composed, without any guilty feeling at all. He seemed to be a complete old fox. He had perfectly hidden all his emotions and thoughts. What a terrible person! Luca couldn't even guess what he wanted.

"He is playing with fire and getting burned. I can see that!" Luca said to himself in his heart, but he could not show disgust on his face. On the contrary, he acted helpless and nodded repeatedly at Father Jiang Carlo. He said to Father Jiang Carlo: "Since things have come to this, I can't force anything. Let's do it according to Father Jiang Carlo's wishes."

Deliberately avoiding the strange looks from Father Jiang Carlo and their soldiers, Luca slowly left the scene with Andrew and the guards behind him.

Further back, beside the quietly flowing stream, Luca and his companions saw the missionaries accompanying them listening to the soldiers' confessions. The soldiers' hands were stained with blood, and the enthusiastic priests were providing them with free handkerchiefs to wet their hands.

They all participated in the massacre, but priests and missionaries could use the name of God to excuse them, saying that as long as they confessed their sins, they would be "forgiven" by God. Because of this, they firmly believed that they could be "forgiven" by bravely confessing their sins, and they became even more unscrupulous.

"Luga, what's going on?" Andrew noticed some subtle changes in the atmosphere. He quickly asked Luga from a distance away, wanting to understand the problem.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"I don't understand this either, Andrew." Luga stopped and said to Andrew, "All I see is that our army is showing cracks and is falling apart. If we go back now, we must

We need to come up with countermeasures quickly to deal with the escalation of this situation.”

"Where are we going?" Andrew asked, "To the Ninth Legion's camp?"

"No!" Luca shook his head and answered firmly, "We will return to the barracks of the Fourth Auxiliary Legion with the eagle flag. What we need to do now is to wait for the new recruits from Lundinlum to arrive and see how many people that Olcott can prepare for us!"

A cold light flashed in Luga's eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and everything was as if nothing had happened.
