Chapter 87 Gai Xun Was Captured
Because the rebel army had attacked the city for three consecutive days, in order to boost morale, Gai Xun never went down to the top of the city at all, and he settled here whether he ate or slept.

At this time, the sky was not yet bright, and Gai Xun was also sleeping at the top of the city. He didn't dare to relax for a moment, for fear that the rebel army would suddenly attack the city and he would not be able to command in time.

For a person in his 40s, no matter how healthy he is, these three days will make him exhausted.

"kill!"

The sudden shout of killing scared Gai Xun to jump up from the wall he was leaning against immediately. His eyes were still bloodshot, but he still quickly entered the state:
"The enemy army is coming, go and carry stones, move wood, boil water..."

But when he looked outside the city, Gai Xun was at a loss because the rebels hadn't come yet, but when he turned his head to look inside the city, his eyes were tearing apart.

It turned out that at some point, the rebels had entered the city and even attacked.

The defenders and the common people, in the past three days, their bodies and spirits... have gradually approached their limits. Now that the rebels have entered the city, they have no resistance at all.

A single rebel cavalry can chase a group of defenders away, and some cavalry have even jumped off their horses and tried to climb the city wall.

It was precisely because of this that Gai Xun's eyes were tearing apart. He didn't understand what was going on, but he quickly thought of a person, and directly gritted his teeth and said:
"Zuo Chang misunderstood me, and all the people in Ji County will die because of him!"

But Gai Xun did not sit still, and then he drew out his sword and strode out:

"Soldiers, people, don't be afraid, follow me, let's beat them back again!"

Gai Xun took the initiative to stand up, and those defenders and civilians seemed to have found the backbone, and quickly crowded behind him.

In the fierce close combat, someone would fall down at any time. At first they were able to resist a little, but more and more Qiang soldiers climbed to the top of the city, and soon they completely surrounded the crowd.

Although Gai Xun was old, he was still like a tiger, protecting the people behind him.

These Qiang soldiers were worried about hurting Gai Xun, so they didn't dare to go forward for a while, and the situation fell into a stalemate.

At this time, among the Qiang soldiers, a very tall young man strode out, this is Bei Gongli, wearing the armor given by Li Yao on his body, he was already tall and majestic, but now he is even more powerful.

Bei Gongli looked at Gai Xun, he also respected Gai Xun, so he chose to treat him with courtesy:

"Gai Gong, now that the city has been breached by us, you should just surrender, and we don't want to hurt you!"

Gai Xun's eyes were wide open, he ignored Bei Gongli's persuasion to surrender, and he yelled loudly:

"Thieves, if you want to kill, kill it. Why do you need to say more, the old man has been innocent all his life, and he should serve the country with his death!"

"You old man..." Bei Gongli was very angry. He also had a fiery temper, and immediately dropped the halberd and charged forward with bare hands.

Facing Gai Xun who was wearing armor and holding a sword in his hand, Bei Gongli pounced on a tiger and snatched the sword away first, and then subdued him himself.

Fist is afraid of the young, this is not a fantasy world, the older you are, the stronger you are, because when you are old, you are old. An old man like Gai Xun is the opponent of this young man, Bei Gongli.

Moreover, Bei Gongli has a hulking back and a hulking waist. He is a fierce general, and few people are his opponents.

Gai Xun still wanted to resist, but he couldn't move, so he could only yell at Bei Gongli:

"Everyone, Shuzi, shameless little thief..."

Bei Gongli was very angry, but he didn't kill Gai Xun. He turned his head to look at the defenders and the people, and vented his anger on them. A roar was like thunder:
"Is it going to drop or not?"

Gai Xun was subdued, and his life was no longer in danger. Neither the defenders nor the common people were aroused with the determination to fight to the death. Under such circumstances, they put down their weapons very conscientiously and chose to surrender.

"We are willing to surrender!"

After Gai Xun was subdued by Bei Gongli, no one in the entire city continued to resist, and then all the banners representing the big man were quickly withdrawn.

At the same time, the soil blocking the city gate was also dug up by Li Yao's men, and then the city gate was also opened.

Li Wenhou and Beigong Boyu, the two of them quickly rushed over with their troops, saw that the city gate had been opened, and immediately sent troops into the city.

Until this time, Ji County has really changed hands!
With a bang, some Qiang soldiers kicked down the gate and rushed into a common people's house. They saw a woman holding a child, and a pair of old people beside them.

The Qiang soldier grinned and wanted to rush over, but he was kicked to the ground. When he got up angrily, he turned around and saw that the people who kicked him were two strong men in black armored cloaks. His expression changed suddenly, and he no longer dared to be arrogant.

One of the strong men glanced at the room, then looked at the Qiang soldier again and said:

"Now they are the tenants of the Li family. If they want to rob, they should go to the big yard. Their family has both money and food!"

Hearing the Li family, the Qiang soldier showed awe, and didn't even dare to say anything, so he turned around and left.

And those two strong men didn't stay for long, they just left a wooden sign with the word Li engraved on it, and finally explained:
"Now you are the tenants of the Li family, take this sign, if Qiang soldiers come in again, just show them this sign, and they won't dare to hurt you!"

After finishing speaking, the two strong men left quickly. Now many Qiang soldiers rushed into the city. Although some did not dare to act recklessly, some had already begun to rise up. It seems that this kind of violent violence has a strong contagious ability, so it needs to be stopped, otherwise it may completely get out of control.

After everyone had left, the woman finally came to her senses, hurried over to pick up the wooden sign, and held it firmly in her hand as if holding a peerless treasure.

She no longer cared about being a tenant. After what happened just now, she only knew that the wooden sign in her hand could save the lives of the whole family.

The army is the most violent war machine, and war is the darkest history of mankind.

When a general army invades a city, it will always be accompanied by various riots, burning, killing, prostitution, looting...

Li Yao wanted to do his best to protect the people, so he could only protect the people. As for the aristocratic families, the powerful, the wealthy businessmen...he was helpless.

In this Ji County, those big families who were domineering and lived extravagantly, this time it can be said that they have suffered a catastrophe.

Of course, they were not wronged. As the most important means of production in ancient society, land was never bought or sold. Therefore, the powerful families who were able to occupy a large amount of land and accumulate a large amount of wealth have never been really clean.

Looking at the history, there is only the word cannibalism!
