Chapter 708: The Huns are obedient and Zhang Liao is impartial

"General Zhonglang, the one who just died seems to be one of your Han officials."

"Doesn't it matter?"

The streets of Dingyang County are full of Hu horses.

Yu Furuo felt a little embarrassed when he saw Lieutenant Li, who was trampled to the point of being unrecognizable and whose identity could only be identified by a few pieces of rags.

He remembered that before he set out, the new Zhonglang Jiang specifically told him:

"Your Excellency has said that in this campaign against Dong Zhuo, we are raising an army of justice, so we should kill as few people as possible and be cautious, and strictly observe military discipline."

"Except for the most heinous criminals and those who are resisting stubbornly, no innocent people should be killed indiscriminately, and no soldiers should be allowed to plunder."

Yu Fuluo kept Su Yao's order in mind.

He knew too well the methods of his good brother-in-law and would never dare to offend him.

Therefore, although he was quite disapproving of this so-called righteous army that could not plunder, he still kept his troops under control.

Anyway, his brother-in-law is a generous person and he is never stingy with the rewards after a war. If they are not allowed to rob, then don't rob.

Therefore, they had been advancing peacefully along the way without causing any trouble.

However, now that the war has started in Dingyang County, it will be difficult to achieve precise control.

This is not the case, although their original plan was to capture as many Han officials as possible alive and bring them back for trial.

However, it was obvious that his men did not recognize who this Lieutenant Li was at all, and simply trampled him to death in the chaos.

"Don't worry, Chanyu."

Zhang Liao said calmly:

"Swords and guns have no eyes. This thief is resisting stubbornly. Seeing our army approaching, he not only refuses to surrender, but also dares to fight. Since he is determined to die for the thief Dong, we can only help him."

Zhang Liao could hardly keep his expression under control while speaking.

Lord Su, Lord Su, look at what you have done.

The fierce and powerful Huns were all made of what you have done.

However, it was also thanks to Su Yao's prestige on the grassland that although Zhang Liao was young and lacked prestige, his work on the grassland progressed very smoothly.

He never thought that recruiting the Hun army would be such a simple matter.

As long as Su Yao's handwritten letter was produced, there was no need to mention the issue of money. The Huns' Chanyu and nobles all patted their chests and clamored to serve him to the utmost.

Even when Zhang Liao mentioned the food supply, Yu Fuluo waved his hand and said generously:
"Don't worry, General Zhonglang. My people will take care of the food and supplies. We will never hold you back!"

All this made Zhang Liao deeply moved. He did not expect that even though Su Yao had left, he could still have a profound impact on the situation here.

Without further ado, after the Hun army entered the city, Zhang Liao and Yu Furuo immediately led their troops straight to the county government office.

Compared to the confused death of the county lieutenant, the county magistrate knelt down cleanly.

Before the army arrived, upon hearing the news that the county gate had been broken, County Magistrate Song had already dressed neatly and led a group of county officials and yamen runners to wait respectfully at the gate of the county government office, ready to welcome the "distinguished guests".

From a distance, as soon as County Magistrate Song saw the figures of the Xiongnu cavalry appearing at the corner of the street, he immediately asked everyone to kneel down and shouted in the poor Hu language he had just learned:

"Your humble servant Song Xiang, the magistrate of Dingyang County, respectfully welcomes the Great Xiongnu King!"

I have to say, he really put on a great show.

But unfortunately, the audience obviously didn't buy it.

The Hun soldiers looked at the funny appearance of County Magistrate Song and laughed so hard that they fell over, and some even almost fell off their horses.

"Hahaha, this Han official is so naive!" "Yeah, look at his poor pronunciation, I've never heard such a lame language."

"What king? He thought we were robbers!"

The Hu cavalry who arrived as the vanguard laughed loudly, then swarmed forward and kicked down those who were kneeling on the ground one by one, and then tied them up one by one with hemp ropes.

Among them, Magistrate Song, who was dressed in official uniform, was picked up by someone, put on a horse, and taken away to the rear to be dealt with by Zhang Liao and Yu Furuo.

However, County Magistrate Song had no idea about the inside story. He just thought that these barbarians wanted to kill him, and he was immediately frightened and howled like a ghost, begging for mercy.

County Magistrate Song didn't even care that these barbarians didn't understand Chinese, and was so anxious that he spoke in his native language:

"Your Majesty, spare your life!"

"Your Majesty, please spare my life!"

"I have parents and children to take care of, so please show some mercy, Your Majesty!"

"County Magistrate! Do you still have any ambition to be a Han official?!"

Magistrate Song knelt down before the Huns in servility. This scene made Zhang Liao, who arrived shortly afterwards, turn pale with anger.

Emma, ​​what a piece of crap this is, he's even worse than that county lieutenant just now.

No matter what, he will die standing. As a county magistrate, you have the responsibility to defend your territory.

The reason for the defeat on the battlefield now is simply due to lack of strength, not the fault of war.

We don't expect you to perform exceptionally well, but it's really shameful for a Han county magistrate to cry and yell in front of the barbarians. It's so damn shameful!
So Zhang Liao stood up, ordered the Hu cavalry to let go of Magistrate Song, and gave him a severe scolding.

County Magistrate Song then realized that it was not some barbarians invading, but an army sent by Marquis Guanjun to attack from both sides!

When County Magistrate Song heard this, he froze in place, his face full of disbelief.

"Marquis Guanjun, to send the Xiongnu Lieutenant General?"

He stared with wide eyes at the young general in front of him, and his heart was filled with shock.

Oh my god, if I had known this earlier I would have surrendered earlier and wouldn’t have to worry all day.

Thinking of this, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy, saying that he was willing to surrender and that he would mobilize the entire Dingyang County to support the cause of defeating Dong.

"General!"

"I have long disliked that thief Dong!"

"I was confused for a moment and didn't know that the general was under the command of the Champion Marquis. I offended you and did such a stupid thing."

"Today, the general has come from afar to raise an army to fight against Dong Zhuo. I will do my best to cooperate and serve you!"

County Magistrate Song's head pounded loudly, but the fear he had felt before was no longer there.

If it were those Huns, he would be so scared that he would pee his pants.

But since the person in front of me is a Han general, everything will be easy.

This big man knows the rules of officialdom.

So, County Magistrate Song, who was well versed in the ways of the government, quietly took out a heavy small cloth bag from his sleeve out of sight and pushed it to Zhang Liao:
"General, I am willing to give up everything I have to pay for my sins."

Zhang Liao was stunned by this scene. He stared at the small cloth bag in County Magistrate Song's hand, and with anger boiling in his heart, he pushed it away:

"Song County Magistrate, do you think you can bribe me with money and let me absolve you of your crime?!"
