You rascal, stop right there!

Xingling City was broken!

The allied forces of the two countries promised to kill only royal relatives, powerful ministers and officials who refused to surrender.

However, there are always some soldiers below who do not obey orders.

In their eyes, servants and maids in the mansion, even concubines, grooms and cooks are all included.

The classics and treasures were looted, and the law of nature is to repay blood with blood.

The disaster of the broken city has brought disaster to countless ordinary Xuanli people!

For a while, there was almost indiscriminate slaughter and looting on the road, and even the bodies of those who died from the plague were stripped for gold, without any dignity.

The destruction of Xingling was even more tragic than the fall of Daying...

There is endless yellow sand and a strong smell of blood and rust.

Ling Shumo rode his horse all the way, trying to find the man among the common people.

Looking at the countless dead bodies in the pool of blood, he could only say that it was karma and reincarnation, and turned his head away indifferently.

The same thing happened when Xuanli killed Dayingren!

Even though he felt sorry for it as a human being, he could only stand by and watch and leave immediately.

What logic is there in avenging the national humiliation and stopping the war with war?

Of course, Ling Shumo couldn't care about the changing situation and could only go to find out where his Abai, Qi Tu and others were.

The underground city was already filled with corpses of the Xuanli plague. Wang Zhi was lying in the center, dying, surrounded by other people who had fled.

It’s a pity that the dungeon is airtight, and if you get the plague, you will die faster.

The king was dressed in rags and had cracked lips and could not speak.

"Brother Ling...Brother Ling..."

He was obviously very ill and couldn't even get up.

"Painter Han... has been... waiting for you..."

Ling Shumo waved his sleeves and said softly, "I'll go find a doctor to get you out."

"Okay... I want to make another bet with Brother Bai."

Wang Zhi held in his hand the half dice that Bai Wan had handed to him earlier.

There is only one red dot on it, which is bright and tempting.

"I don't believe that if I throw... a big... throw, I can... drink... and... talk... happily..."

Unexpectedly, before he could utter a complete sentence, a red tassel spear pierced his throat and killed his voice.

In an instant, my heart was broken.

"Brother Ling, it's too late today. Let's look for it tomorrow!"

Said Shi Yaqing, the appeasement envoy holding a red tasseled spear beside him.

The iron sheet was stained with blood, dripping down...

"Why did you kill him?!"

Ling Shumo's eyes were filled with loneliness and his lips were trembling slightly.

Shi Yaqing smiled and asked, "Why not? He is from Xuanli!"

All the Xuanli people deserve to die, don’t they?

Have you forgotten how Xuanli conquered Daying and caused the people to lose their homes and become slaves?

but……

But this person...

He once helped the people of Daqing...

Ling Shumo felt his whole body tremble, and he had to close Wang Zhi's eyes, which were still open in death.

People’s hearts cannot be controlled...

How can the crisis between the two countries be so black and white?

He paused for a moment, just watching the man raise his hand to give orders, and with a few gestures he instructed his men to drag the corpse.

The soldiers all wore white cloth masks and moved their hands.

The ground was littered with corpses that might have been infected with the plague, and a large number of people died in the silent massacre.

"These are corpses infected with the plague. They must be taken out of the city and burned! You'd better wear a white mask to avoid contracting the disease."

The appeaser Shi Yaqing even handed over a piece of white cloth.

At this moment, the gentle and graceful person suddenly spoke and said softly: "Why was there a plague before Xuanli fell? You should know it well."

National hatred and family feuds, all is fair in war and any deception is acceptable.

However, polluting water sources with infected corpses is a disguised massacre and cannot be considered aboveboard.

"I knew I couldn't hide it from Brother Ling..." Shi Yaqing's eyes were like thousands of ices.

"But don't you Daqing people want to wipe out the entire Xuanli Kingdom?"

Ling Shumo didn't answer, but just sighed softly, his mind full of thoughts.

His dark, cold eyes were deep, hidden in the red light of the torches of the guards beside him.

"Ling only knows that if you want to unify the Three Kingdoms, simply killing people and exterminating the clan is definitely not the best way."

"In this regard, Emperor Qing is even better."

After saying this, he continued to lift the reins and search into the darkness.

Shi Yaqing looked at the man and chuckled, feeling that it was ridiculous.

The night is deep.

The cries of the people have ceased to reach their ears.

The man in green clothes searched for a whole day but couldn't find anyone.

He looked anxiously at the corpses one after another, each with a similar back, searching in a panic.

Some soldiers held torches and wanted to investigate.

Unexpectedly, someone immediately explained:

"This is Lord Ling, the former commander of the invincible Dingzhou Army. He's here to visit his old friend from Daqing. Don't stop him!"

General Mu Hua and General Pan Ying of the coalition forces both issued orders to allow them to pass unhindered and help find Han Huasheng.

One day and one night, without eating or drinking.

In the quiet night, Ling Shumo walked back and forth across the city looking for someone.

……

Yizhuang culvert.

Bai Wan and his companions saw that everyone in the village had died, the ground was in a mess, and there were starving people everywhere.

The scene before my eyes is truly moving.

Originally, these Xuanli people could have lived longer like them, but unfortunately they competed with each other for food and property and even ate each other.

The disease will spread faster...

At this moment, suddenly the sound of trumpets and drums was heard overhead, resounding throughout the earth.

"It seems... Xingling City has been occupied. Xuanli is likely to be destroyed..."

Bai Wan staggered and supported the injured Luo Wenqi, and several of them barely looked out from the culvert.

Many soldiers from Lingyu and Daqing had already entered the village and were dragging the bodies out and loading them onto wooden carts.

There was no time to burn them, so they were probably dragged out of the city and buried or dumped.

Less than half an hour.

The eighteen bodies in the village were found and thrown out one by one.

Lingyu's soldiers are still checking for omissions in the search, and no one infected with the disease can be left behind, which will affect the clearing of the city.

In the corner, the soldier kicked the corpse in disgust.

"Why is there still more? I'm afraid I won't be able to rest today."

"That's right! No one was taking care of the corpses in the charity cemetery, yet they had to drag them out of the city."

The soldier next to him was also cursing and struggling to lift the body onto the wooden cart.

At this moment, he took a glance and found that the corner of Anqu's clothes was moving after he pulled it.

“There are still some alive!!”

The soldier shouted.
