Chapter 853 Where Are The Traitors?
Hearing the louder and louder sound of war drums, Yuan Yao's blood boiled with enthusiasm. He pulled out the long sword at his waist and got ready. When the battle started, he would rush forward even if he had no official status. There is no such thing as military merit, but he still has the yearning to kill the enemy on the battlefield in his heart. However, when he drew his long sword, he suddenly found that the soldiers around him put down their crossbows again. .

Yuan Yao was at a loss, and the clerk at the side said, "This is the war drum of the Han army."

The co-author met someone from my own family, so what are you doing so solemnly? ?Cursing inwardly, Yuan Yao retracted his long sword in embarrassment. Fortunately, everyone ignored him. As the ships approached, Yuan Yao finally saw the situation ahead. Hundreds of ships blocked the front. On the fairway, there are still people holding flags and waving towards this side.

Zhou Yu didn't give an order, but the big ship changed its direction and turned to the left, and several soldiers waved their flags behind them. Gradually, Yuan Yao also saw the land ahead, which was a port, moored Many ships and soldiers stood on the shore, holding spears, motionless, waiting for Zhou Yu's arrival.

The car and boat stopped at the shore. Immediately, someone dropped anchor, and someone put a plank on it. Zhou Yu stepped on the plank and got off the boat. Yuan Yao hurriedly followed him and got off the boat. Helmet, with a solemn expression, saw Zhou Yu getting off the boat, and everyone bowed to him, Zhou Yu nodded, as a return, and asked coldly, "Where's Youtu?"

"General He"

"He's dead."

The general opened his mouth slowly, Zhou Yu was taken aback for a moment, and then his face turned red, and he was so angry that he looked at the long-bearded general beside him, and shouted: "Ling Tong!! What are you doing for food?!", Yuan Yao was shocked. He had never seen Zhou Yu so angry. Hearing Zhou Yu's roar, the general named Ling Tong immediately knelt on the ground with one knee, lowered his head, and said, "Please shoot and punish!"

He had no intention of arguing at all.

"You never came to support?!"

"It's never been like this. It's just that when Jianning Changdao sent people here, I was patrolling overseas and didn't know the situation here. When I went back, I just found out about Jianning Changdao. I hurriedly brought people here, but it was already too late. Not only General Youtu, but none of the many officials in Jianning Changdao survived... and those rebels are hiding among the rest, it is difficult to distinguish."

Zhou Yu let out a long sigh, this is not the first time, since the 11th year of Yankang, these overseas strongholds have often experienced indigenous rebellions, as long as the Han army went out to patrol, they would besiege the local officials and brutally kill them. When the Han army returned, they hid among the indigenous people and could not be identified.

"Take me to see the general's body."

Zhou Yu ignored Ling Tong, but said to the others. Everyone left. Yuan Yao looked at Ling Tong, who was still half kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly followed. Yuan Yao was sizing up all the way. Looking around, it can be seen that the big man has spent a lot of thought on this place. The size of the port can approach that of Yangzhou port, and most of it is cultivated land, but now it seems to be burned maliciously by people, everywhere ash.

The cultivated land here is denser than that of Yangzhou. Almost as far as the eye can see, all the cultivated land is continuous, a very large farmland, and at this moment there are soldiers patrolling the cultivated land, maybe it is Let’s catch the traitors outside, Yuan Yao thought, what a pity, most of the cultivated land of this scale has been burned to ashes, even some residential houses are like this, pitch-black wood, pitch-black land.

Gradually, the air became foul-smelling, and the ground was still pitch black, which made Yuan Yao feel a little uncomfortable. It seemed that there had been a war here, and Yuan Yao just realized that the blackness just now was not just the ashes left by the flames, but also the ashes left by the flames. Yuan Yao smelled the color of coagulated blood, felt extremely uncomfortable, and almost vomited it out.

However, Zhou Yu and the others rushed all the way without showing any emotion.

The general on the side continued to say: "They took advantage of the time when the general was leading people to observe the terrain, they scuttled the ship, brought farm tools to attack the county government of Jianning Changdao, killed the county magistrate and more than 60 soldiers, After getting the weapons, he surrounded the general. There were only more than 40 people around the general, and I don’t know how many people were besieged. There were more than 500 indigenous corpses left on the ground.”

"All the soldiers around the general were killed, except for a few soldiers guarding the ship, who fled out in a second car to seek reinforcements."

Listening to his words, Yuan Yao's heart gradually became heavy.

When they came to the ruined county government office, Yuan Yao also saw the corpse lying on the ground covered with a white cloth. There were many corpses, and they were all placed in the county government office. Obviously it belonged to the general with the strange name. Zhou Yu stepped forward and tore off the white cloth on his body. At that moment, Yuan Yao's eyes widened.

This general lost his right hand and both legs, and the most frightening thing was that he had holes all over his body, one hole after another, without a single intact place, Yuan Yao fell into a sluggish state.

The same is true for Zhou Yu, who looked at the corpse and fell silent.

"The general was so brave that he charged several times. The natives we captured said that after his legs were cut off, he still did not give in. He sat on the ground and swung a sword with one hand. He killed many rebels in a daze. He was afraid and didn't dare to get close, so he picked up the strong crossbows and longbows of the soldiers, and shot General Youtu to death."

"Alas", Zhou Yu sighed. Yuan Yao could see clearly that there were tears in Zhou Yu's eyes. Yuan Yao didn't speak, but just looked at the horrible general on the ground. Both legs, the general who lost his right hand, holding a long sword, crawling towards the enemy, he slowly stepped forward, picked up the white cloth, and helped the general spread it on his body.

Zhou Yu stood for a long time, and suddenly asked coldly, "How is the situation of the traitor?"

"They discarded their ordnance and hid among the people. We only found a few wounded, and they also confessed a few people. However, all they confessed were dead. We have been investigating for ten days. Only Captured more than 60 people suspected of participating in the rebellion."

"How many natives are there on the island?"

"There are more than 8000 people."

"Well, there are more than 8000 people." Zhou Yu nodded, not knowing what he was thinking, he turned around, looked at Yuan Yao, and said, "Yaoer, you go to the [-]th car and boat just now, and order to stay behind Soldiers, carry the food and grass here..." Yuan Yao was taken aback, nodded, and left in a hurry, Zhou Yu then looked at the other generals.

"Rebellion and treason, what is the crime?"

"Shut up."

"What is the crime of killing a big man and general?"

"Shut up."

"Whoever shields a traitor is no doubt a traitor."

"But this is eight thousand."

"What is the crime of resisting the order?"

"Please!!"

Zhou Yu looked at the many generals in front of him, nodded, and said: "Then I will leave it to you." After ordering many generals, Zhou Yu sat next to Youtu's body when everyone left. When they arrived in Yangzhou, they had a lot of disagreements with Youtu, because he was uneducated, his language was barbaric, and he often looked down on Zhou Yu by relying on his seniority.

Zhou Yu once hated this arrogant and unreasonable barbarian, but when he saw Youtu's body and heard the tragic battle situation, he still shed tears. Sitting beside the barbarian's body, he whispered Said: "You Manzi, what you said earlier was correct, but I was wrong. If I had listened to you earlier and let them get scared from their hearts, you would not have died in battle."

"I was too immature to listen to you, I'm sorry."

"However, don't worry, I will listen to what you said before you were alive, and I will avenge you for nine generations." Zhou Yu gritted his teeth, and the anger in his eyes was about to burst out. At this moment, Yuan Yao Panting, he rushed into the county office, "Brother!! I've ordered it!!!" As he spoke, he saw Zhou Yu sitting on the ground, and walked to his side.

"Brother, where are those generals?" Yuan Yao looked at Zhou Yu sitting here alone, and asked with some doubts.

"They went to enforce the Han law."

"What Han law?"

"Destroy the traitor."

"Ah? I want to go too. Where are they?" Yuan Yao asked enthusiastically. Zhou Yu stood up, pulled Yuan Yao, walked out of the county government office, and pointed to the houses in the distance. Yuan Yao was overjoyed. Hastily said goodbye and left, Zhou Yu didn't say anything, just watched him draw out the long sword, and left here happily, Zhou Yu was waiting here.

After waiting for a while, he saw Yuan Yao running back quickly. Yuan Yao was extraordinarily flustered, with a terrified expression, and ran up to Zhou Yu tremblingly, "Brother!! Brother!! It's not good, those people They are all crazy, they kill anyone they see, no matter women, children, old or young, they are crazy to kill, and they can't be stopped!!", Yuan Yao's voice trembled a little, and his face was pale.

He had never seen such a scene, there were corpses everywhere, the soldiers laughed grinningly, and cut off the head of the beggar with a sword.

"I ordered it."

"Ah?? Brother?? But, why, thousands of people"

"8000 people."

"Brother?!", Yuan Yao was about to speak when Zhou Yu stretched out his hand, grabbed his shoulder, and threw him to the ground. He pointed to the corpse in the distance and asked, "Go ask them, should you?" Should I kill??"

"I"

"Nine generations of revenge can be avenged!! Covering traitors and killing officials, these crimes are enough to punish them with death! Since you dare to kill officials, you must be prepared to be killed. Today, I will let you People in these strongholds know what the end of the rebellion is, if you still consider yourself the son of General Yuan, raise your sword to me and avenge them!"

"If you don't even have the courage to avenge them, you are not worthy to be his son!"

Yuan Yao's eyes were red, struggling to break free from Zhou Yu's oppression, he pulled out the long sword at his waist, and rushed in the direction just now.
