Chapter 215: Imperial Decree to Execute the Imperial Guards



Zhao Qi knew that he was doomed, so he shouted and attacked Zhao Huan with his sword.

With a 'dang' sound, Linghu Yunlong rushed forward to catch his sword.

In terms of swordsmanship, Zhao Qi was so frightened that he was at a loss for words. Even if he was a normal person, he would never be a match for Linghu Yunlong, the world's number one swordsman.

Linghu Yunlong wanted to show off his skills, and actually used the sticky character technique to force the long sword in Zhao Qi's hand to stab him.

Zhao Qi was shocked. For some reason, the sword he had thrust out turned and stabbed himself.

In just three rounds, Linghu Yunlong had twisted his sword away and held it across Zhao Qi's neck.

At this time, the sound of horse hooves was heard, and Yue Fei and his Yue Family Army had arrived.

Yue's army quickly surrounded the imperial guards on the street.

This is really a huge joke. Zhao Huan has always been worried that Yue Fei will become too powerful, so he led the imperial guards north to fight in person.

As a result, these imperial guards are no longer reliable, and they need Yue's army to help them get rid of the harm.

"Catch!" Zhao Huan waved his hand.

Yue Fei led the Yue Family Army into the entire East City, and any Imperial Guards who were found looting were arrested and brought to justice.

After half a day of arresting, 372 guards who had robbed more than 20 taels were captured in the entire East City, and the remaining guards were temporarily reorganized and resettled.

These more than 10,000 people are the vanguard of the Imperial Guard, and Wang Zongchu, Wu Ge and others are still on the way.

The 372 people were taken to the largest square in Zhongjing to await trial.

The people of Zhongjing were packed with people. They finally realized that it was the generals of the Imperial Guards who had secretly ordered the burning, killing and looting, and that the emperor had nothing to do with it. When the emperor learned of this, he personally executed the chief general of the Imperial Guards, and the people were delighted.

At this moment, these 372 people were taken to the execution ground again, and people rushed to stop and watch.

Nearly four hundred guards lined up in a black mass and waited in the square for trial.

The imperial edict was issued quickly: behead!

"Bang!" The crowd erupted in excitement. Three or four hundred guardsmen had been sentenced to immediate execution. People couldn't believe their ears.

These imperial guards did not die at the hands of the Jin people, but were ordered to be executed by the emperor for looting the city.

Three hundred and seventy-two people was no small number. Zhao Huan reluctantly ordered their execution, as he had to set an example for the army.

The virtue of being clear about rewards and punishments and strictly disciplining the army was taught to him by Yue Fei.

Zhao Huan finally realized that he could be a good emperor, but he would definitely not be a good general, as marching and fighting were not his forte.

The executioners finished in three batches because they were short of men. The entire square was littered with heads, and finally the anger of the people of Zhongjing was quelled.

The Imperial Guards finally became strictly disciplined and did not harm the civilians.
