Chapter 773 The truth is revealed
The book is followed last time.
"Who are you? Let me go! Kill..."
After about a stick of incense, a soldier covered in blood and shouting loudly was dragged here by the messenger.
At this moment, the guard who went to get the torch also walked here with a lit torch.
"Kill... Uh???" The soldiers who were shouting to kill immediately returned to their sight after seeing the light.
Then he saw Yuan Shao with a gray face. After seeing Yuan Shao, he no longer dared to shout for killing and was stunned.
Yuan Shao did not care about the unreasonableness of the soldiers and asked with a pale face: "I ask you, why did you kill people everywhere immediately after rushing into the city?"
"This..." After the soldiers recovered their vision, they immediately realized that the few people he killed just now were all his comrades-in-law brothers.
So after hearing Yuan Shao's inquiry, he immediately stood there and did not dare to speak. He was afraid that Yuan Shao would punish him.
Seeing this, Yuan Shao thought about it for a while, and understood the soldiers' psychology, and comforted him softly: "You don't have to be afraid. What happened before was not your fault. You are forgiven without guilt."
You should tell me why you are killing each other. As long as you tell me the reason, I will be rewarded with great rewards!”
After hearing Yuan Shao's tempting words, the soldiers hesitated for a while and then spoke: "You lord, it's not that your subordinates are willing to kill each other with them, but that they are really forced to do so!
My subordinates are already suffering from poor people's illness, so they are fine when they are on the road. After all, they follow each other and can't cause any trouble.
But when we were waiting for the attack, we were all in a mess!
Because my subordinates couldn't see anything at all, during the charge, I suddenly heard a shout of killing around me, and my subordinates felt that it must be the enemy who came to attack.
Although I can't see things clearly, my subordinates' ears are easy to use. So my subordinates attacked wildly in the direction of the shouting of killing."
After saying this, he looked up carefully at Yuan Shao and said tremblingly: "I really didn't expect that those who were killed by me were actually my fellow comrades. Please forgive me!"
After saying that, he knelt down with a plop and kowtowed hard, for fear that Yuan Shao would punish him.
"Get up quickly, get up quickly..." After hearing the soldiers' words, Yuan Shao quickly helped him up vigorously.
Then he patted the soil on the soldier's body and said warmly: "Didn't Gu just say it? As long as you tell the truth, Gu will not cure you.
Don’t worry, you are not only not guilty, but you have made contributions!
After this battle, I will reward you well. Okay, go back quickly.”
The original Yuan Shao couldn't say such words, but
After all these things, Yuan Shao discovered the importance of the army, so he became more lenient to the soldiers.
"Go back?" After hearing Yuan Shao's words, the soldier cried happily and said with a begging face: "Please don't let my subordinates go back. I really don't want to kill the brothers again!"
If the people he killed are enemies, he will not only not be sad, but will instead be very excited.
After all, every time he kills one more person, he will get more credit.
But now he suddenly realized that the people he killed were not enemies, but his comrades-in-law brothers! It is conceivable how uncomfortable he felt in his heart!
So, he never wanted to go back to that killing field again.
After hearing the soldiers' begging, Yuan Shao patted his shoulder with a smile and comforted him: "Don't worry, I am not the kind of unreasonable person.
Gu asked you to go back, not to let you continue fighting with them, but to help Gu calm them down."
After saying this, he ordered to the guard holding a torch beside him: "Take hundreds of people with us, take all our torches to the battlefield to light them so that they will stop killing each other!"
"No!" After hearing Yuan Shao's words, the guard immediately responded.
Then he led hundreds of people towards the battlefield.
After hearing Yuan Shao's words and looking at the torches, the soldier nodded with excitement on his face, clasped his fists at Yuan Shao and said, "Thank you, lord, I'm here to go."
After saying that, he grabbed a torch from a guard and rushed towards the battlefield happily.
The reason why he was so happy was because he wanted to use his actions to reduce some of his guilt.
He felt that as long as he calmed down those who killed each other a moment ago, it would be equivalent to saving some people.
In this way, the souls of his brothers who died in his hands should rest in peace.
After all the people holding the torch left, Yuan Shao turned his attention to the messenger.
Because torches are already inserted around, the messenger can see things clearly now.
After seeing Yuan Shao with a sneer on his face, he shuddered, then laughed dryly, and said, "Lord, I guess you won't go back on your word, right?"
After saying this, the messenger looked at the sneer on Yuan Shao's face and couldn't help but take a slow step back.
Seeing his appearance, he wanted to escape, but because he was surrounded by Yuan Shao's guards, he just thought about it but did not dare to actually escape.
Because he knew that if he had discussed with Yuan Shao carefully now, there might be a glimmer of hope.
After all, Yuan Shao is a face-loving person. Since he has agreed to let himself have a way out, there is always a slight possibility.
Keep your promises.
However, if he escaped now, he would probably be killed by Yuan Shao's guards!
In this way, it is not considered that Yuan Shao did not keep his promise.
So, even though the messenger was so scared that he was about to wet his pants, he still stood there two steps back.
"Hmph..." Yuan Shao sneered twice after hearing the envoy's words, nodded and said playfully: "You are right. Gu is a person who keeps his promises. Gu will indeed consider letting you go..."
After saying this, he touched his chin and looked at the messenger with a playful look.
"Gudu!" The messenger was chilled by Yuan Shao's gaze that looked like a cat looking at a mouse. After swallowing nervously, he asked carefully: "Then... will I say goodbye first?"
"Haha..." Yuan Shao chuckled after hearing the envoy's words and asked playfully: "When did you promise to let you go?" The envoy's face changed drastically when he heard this. He raised his hand to point at Yuan Shao and said loudly: "Yuan Shao, how can you go back on your word as the third prince of the fourth generation? Didn't you just say that you wanted to let a certain family go?!"
After saying that, he no wonder he heard Yuan Shao's answer, turned his head and ran towards the distance, but...
"Go back!"
"Peng!" The envoy who was about to escape was kicked in front of Yuan Shao by a guard.
"Puff..." is because he is essentially a slave, and he has never eaten anything good. He is very thin, so after being kicked by the guard, he immediately spit out a mouthful of blood.
But after the messenger who was spitting blood fell at Yuan Shao's feet, he did not wipe it. Instead, he raised his head, looked at Yuan Shao with grief and anger, and shouted loudly: "Yuan Shao! If you don't tell me your trust, didn't you say you wanted to let me go?"
Although he had long guessed that Yuan Shao would go back on his word, he had always been lucky. Now the guard's kick kicked him into reality!
"Haha..." Yuan Shao chuckled after hearing the guard's roar, stepped on his head with a foot, squatted down and said with a smile: "When did Gu go back on his word? Gu just said to think about it..."
Speaking of this, Yuan Shao paused for a moment, tilted his head, pretended to think for a while, and continued, "But Gu now understands it. Gu doesn't plan to release you. Gu wants to take your head to sacrifice the flag! Hahahaha..."
After saying these words, Yuan Shao couldn't help laughing.
He is in a very good mood now, but on the one hand, he has solved the problem of civil strife of his army.
On the other hand, the messenger insulted him many times, and now he finally returned all of these insults!
