When he was in a dilemma, Fan Dongliu, who was in charge of guarding the Chinese army, rushed to ask for help, saying that the riots there were extremely fierce and the situation was extremely urgent, and asked him to take command in person.He did not hesitate to go single-handedly and follow Fan Dongliu.In such a situation of walking on thin ice, if a large number of sergeants are led to the situation, it will only make the contradictions more intense and difficult to reconcile.On the way, Fan Dongliu briefly recounted the actual situation of the conflict.All sections of the grain army were harassed by refugees, and the scale was large or small, but the reason why the Chinese army was the most critical was because this group of refugees was different, and there were three great cultivators hiding inside.Under their organization, the three people did not flock to the top and become a mess, but advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, avoiding the edge of the tiger guards, and grabbing food from both ends of the head and tail, so that the tiger guards were tired of coping.Ren Zhen was surprised after listening to the report.According to Fan Dongliu's description, these three people are all in the Five Realms, and they are well commanded and have the bearing of generals, judging from the cultivation and quality they show, they are by no means ordinary people.In this case, why are they mixed in with the refugees, could it be that they are spies of the Southern Jin Dynasty, intending to incite the refugee group and create riots in the hinterland of the Northern Tang Dynasty He thought of this possibility and quickly vetoed it.If it is really an undercover agent, it should be hidden deeply, and he will come forward to fight the army in person, and the undercover agent will not be so stupid.With doubts in his heart, he hurried to the Chinese army.Contrary to what he expected, by the time he appeared, the chaos had subsided, and a large number of refugees had gathered, and although they were still confronting the sergeants, they were no longer desperately trying to grab food.In their eyes, there was not only anger, but also a sadness.Fan Dongliu saw the scene in front of him, both surprised and puzzled, when he left just now, the situation was obviously out of control, imminent, why was it only in the blink of an eye, these mobs quieted down, and did not launch another onslaught He walked to the side of the grain truck, looked at Xiao Jinsan who was standing by the sword, and asked: "Brother Xiao, what is going on" Xiao Jinsan jumped off the grain truck, pointed to the ground in front of him with the blade of his sword, and smiled coldly, "There are only three Jianghu Ye Xiu, why is it enough to worry that after Brother Fan escaped, I killed one of them with my own hands, and abolished another person" Fan Dongliu raised his eyebrows, Hearing the undisguised irony in Xiao Jinsan's words, he did not refute it, and confirmed: "You mean, the three people who took the lead in the rebellion were defeated by you" He had witnessed the strength of those three people just now, and he couldn't believe that with the strength of Xiao Jinsan alone, he was able to defeat a strong enemy, and even caused the other party to suffer heavy casualties.Xiao Jin put his sword back into its sheath and looked at the white cloth on the ground behind the refugees, his eyes contemptuous."
Brother Fan, you rode away just now, and the sergeants can see it.After that, you will be exempted from this share" Fan Dongliu was expressionless, didn't say anything, turned around and went back to report to Ren Zhen.Ren Zhen listened silently, and his face gradually became gloomy.He was thoughtful and discerning, and when he first arrived, he captured the grief on the faces of the refugees.It turned out that it was the leader they had supported who had been killed.They were silent, gathered there in silence, so eerily quiet, as if they were storing up anger and strength.Ren Zhen had a strong premonition that a more ferocious retaliatory counterattack was about to break out.Xiao Jinsan was smug, thinking that he had made a great achievement, but he didn't know anything about the situation, and he didn't know that he was adding fuel to the fire, so that the army completely lost room for maneuver.Ren Zhen took off Fan Dongliu's sword, held it in his hand, and then walked into the depths of the grain team and came to see Xiao Jinsan in person.Xiao Jinsan only realized at this time that Fan Dongliu was asking for help.While saluting Ren Zhen, his mind was in a hurry, and he had to report the situation as soon as possible, so as not to be caught by Fan Dongliu and take away his military exploits."
Hou Ye, just now" Before he could say a word, he was interrupted by Ren Zhen raising his hand, "You only have the inferior products of the five realms, how can you kill the other party with one enemy and three" Xiao Jinsan was stunned for a moment.Ren Zhen's eyes are vicious, and with just one sentence, he hit the crux of the problem.The cultivators are strong in force, and with the duel of true qi, ordinary soldiers can't interfere at all, especially after knowing their fate, even the martial cultivators of the lower five realms can only stare dryly, let alone help.At this moment, the tiger guard beside Xiao Jinsan, although his combat power is strong, is only for the secular army, and it is almost impossible to intervene in the battle between the five realms.In other words, Xiao Jinsan has no helpers.That being the case, it's ridiculous that he won.Don't say it's him, he can't even be reinstated.Ren Zhen stared at his face, waiting for him to explain."
I" Xiao Jin was scattered, facing his ancient and waveless eyes, he was so nervous that cold sweat oozed from his forehead, "I will take advantage of the situation and break them all" Ren Zhen was silent.There was silence.Xiao Jinsan's heart was pounding, and he could see that Ren Zhen didn't believe this general explanation.He was about to add details, when Ren Zhen suddenly drew his sword and put it on the neck of a tiger guard beside him.This scene shocked everyone speechless."
Say."
The tiger guard's face was pale, trembling, and he felt a chill rise from his neck.He understood that Ren Zhen asked him to explain the truth of Xiao Jinsan's battle.If he can't say it, or cooperate with Xiao Jinsan to lie, he will be charged with lying about the military situation and will be beheaded on the spot.His legs trembled, and he said in a trembling voice: "The villain didn't dare to hide it, I saw with my own eyes just now that General Xiao fought fiercely with the other party, and at the beginning he lost the upper hand, and under the entanglement of those three people, there was no chance of winning."
So, after Xiao Daren struggled to get out of trouble, he suddenly rushed into the pile of refugees behind. ”His life was at stake, how dare he be vague, and regardless of Xiao Jinsan's fierce eyes, he said truthfully: "Those are all old and young women, who have no power to fight back, let alone participate in the food grabbing.General Xiao killed more than a dozen people in a row, which caught them off guard, and hurriedly rushed to the rescue, but he was attacked by his secret weapon" The guard stared at Ren Zhen tightly, and when he said this, he saw that the latter's face was cold and terrifying, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say any more.Ren Zhen withdrew the sword from the guard's neck, but did not put it in the sheath, and turned to look at Xiao Jinsan."
In other words, you use those weak people as bait to make the three of them panic, and then take advantage of their unpreparedness to sneak attack.In the art of war, this is called luring the snake out of the hole, right" Xiao Jinsan heard this, thinking that he was exculpating himself, his heart suddenly relaxed, and he nodded and said: "Yes, as the saying goes, soldiers are not tired of deceit, and they are unscrupulous."
I lure the serpents out of their holes, and I hit them in the soft underbelly, causing them to stop," he said.Ren Zhen's sword rested on his neck."
You still know that those old and young are their weakness, and even the fugitives know how to respect the old and love the young, and want to protect well, you actually hurt the hand, knowing that they did not riot and grab food, and still disregard people's lives in public" "The soldiers are not tired of deceit, and lure the snake out of the hole, these are all right, but who told you that you can trample on the lives of innocent people at will, your despicable and vicious means are insulting the dignity of the tiger guard" Ren Zhen was furious, and scolded in front of all the sergeants."
If you kill a leader, you will be proud and think that you have merit, then do you know that you kill innocents indiscriminately, bully the weak, and will arouse the anger of more refugees, waiting for them to come to you for revenge" Compared with the huge flood of refugees, the mob who dared to stand up and make trouble is a minority after all.Those people were so hungry that they grabbed food for their lives, but they also knew in their hearts that doing so was no different from robbers, and they were guilty of death.Ren Zhen ordered them to be killed, even if he couldn't bear it, he was morally worthy and would not violate public opinion.It can't be reasonable, at least it's still there.This is a good thing, Xiao Jinsan slaughtered innocents, and did not even let go of those who did not participate in the food grabbing, and immediately pushed all the refugees to the hostile side.As long as the news spreads among the refugees, the crowd is angry and huddled, and the situation will be out of control.The imperial court watched from the sidelines, ignoring the exiled refugees, and lost the support of the people, causing them to resentment and hatred of the officers and soldiers.In this situation, Xiao Jinsan will kill again and trample on the innocent and weak, which is equivalent to igniting the powder keg that has been accumulated for a long time.If Ren Zhen didn't act quickly to eliminate their anger and misunderstanding before the main force of refugees revolted, then it would be difficult for Huwei to retreat from this plain
