The closer they were to Pu Tai, the more ugly the faces of Yang Shaoshen, Zhu Zhanji and others became.

The ruined village, the corpses lying on the road, the crows hovering in the air, and the wild dogs with red eyes to bite the body, outlined the miserable scene after the war disaster in front of everyone.

Yang Shaofeng spat hatefully, and his impression of the so-called rebel army dropped to the bottom.

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Yang Shaofeng: "Why, can't you stand it anymore?"

Yang Shaofeng nodded and said, "It's all humans, why can they do it!"

Zhu Gaoxu looked dissatisfied: "When the war broke out, no one knew when he would die, and who could care about benevolence, righteousness and morality?

Don’t think that these things are done by the chaotic army. In fact, officers and soldiers are not much better than the chaotic army. It depends on whether the generals leading the army are rigorous. Otherwise, officers and soldiers will be more cruel than the chaotic army."

After saying that, Zhu Gaoxu simply rode his horse toward the several corpses slowly.

"Woo~Wool!"

The wild dog who ate human flesh was already red and even turned his eyes to Zhu Gaoxu, as if he was planning to taste what the human flesh of a living person tasted.

Zhu Gaoxu sighed, and after he opened his bow and shot two of them to death, the other wild dogs scattered in wail.

"These dogs are crazy, and now they don't know whether they should be considered wolves or dogs."

After dismounting, he walked to the side of the corpses and looked around for a few times. After returning to the horse, he continued to say: "The rant army did it. The wounds on the corpses were injured by sharp objects and blunt objects, which did not seem to be caused by officers and soldiers."

Zhu Zhanji also sighed and asked, "Or we'll bury all these people. It seems that it won't take long."

Zhu Gaoxu looked around and felt that there should be no danger nearby, so he nodded and said, "It's true. They are all people in the Ming Dynasty, so it's not a solution to just throw them away like this."

Qin Zining scattered the spy out, arranged enough warning staff before letting the other soldiers enter the Zhuangzi, and began to clean up the Zhuangzi, which had been looted once, and at the same time, he also had to restrain the corpses whose names were no longer known.

The miserable scene made everyone lose their appetite. Except for Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Zhanji who seemed to be chewing the meat in their hands, Yang Shaofeng could hardly eat it in one bite.

After swallowing the flesh in his mouth and taking another sip of water, Zhu Zhanji looked at Yang Shaofeng and said, "Eat, you have to eat when it's time to eat, otherwise you will have no strength. When the close forces are in contact, you will die early."

Yang Shaofeng turned his head and looked at the back of the entire team, sighed, "I should have been on the water route. I can't see these, and I can still pretend that I didn't see them. Now I see them, what should I do?"

Zhu Zhanji shook his head and said, "There is nothing to say what to do, and there is nothing to regret. Since you have chosen this path, it means that you will see such a scene later, even worse than this."

Yang Shaofeng sighed, picked up the meat pieces in his hand several times and put them down several times, but he still couldn't bite them into his mouth.

While he was talking, Zhu Zhanji had finished eating the meat piece in his hand. Seeing that Yang Shaofeng was still unable to swallow his food, he advised him: "At least eat something. War always kills people, just get used to it."

"It's good if you get used to it?" Yang Shaofeng glanced at Zhu Zhanji who was chewing meat, and then looked at Zhu Gaoxu who seemed to be fine. He suddenly felt a little uncomfortable: "Habit? Why are you used to it? They are all people in the Ming Dynasty and all compatriots, how do you get used to it?"

Zhu Zhanji said, "Why can't you get used to it? Then again, you haven't seen the scene like this before you when you were in Japan. Why aren't you sad at that time?"

"I..." Yang Shaofeng was stunned: "I treat Japanese slaves as beasts, and no matter how many deaths occur, I don't feel anything.

But I can't think of them as beasts. They say the same things as us and wear the same clothes. They are humans, they are not beasts!"

Zhu Gaoxu's face darkened and he whispered: "This is how war is! This is their life!"

Picking up the towel and wiping the oil on your hands, Zhu Gaoxu continued, "If you can't be ruthless, leave the next thing to me, or ask Zhanji to do it for you, just go to Jimo to be a county magistrate."

Zhu Zhanji also spoke, "If all the people of the Ming Dynasty could afford to eat and wear tops, no one would rebel again, and the remaining people would not have to suffer war disasters again.

Now you know why Grandpa Emperor specially allocated 5,000 squads and 3,000 cavalry to you, not only to protect the safety of us, but also to let these people repel the rebels and achieve the goals you want."

Yang Shaofeng suddenly fell silent.

He took the Japanese slaves as labor envoys, and no matter how many Japanese slaves died, Yang Shaofeng could not care about them at all.

But looking at the tragic situation in front of him, the little Virgin Mary disease that was left faintly in Yang Shaofeng's heart occurred - he had never experienced real wars, he had only experienced the family of officers, soldiers and people, and even went to protect the people with their lives. He could go out to buy cigarettes at 3 a.m., but Yang Shaofeng's mentality was not so easy to change.

After a while of silence, Yang Shaofeng spoke, "Otherwise, let's change the plan and arrest all the rebels directly. It just so happens that Shuntian Mansion is still short of labor, so let them work until they die?"

"Oh!"

Zhu Zhanji chuckled, then looked at Yang Shaofeng and said, "Change the plan? Ji Gang personally went to direct the Jinyiwei's actions. Uncle Wang of Han acted with us. The preparations made by the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel, how much manpower and material resources are used in all kinds of people? Do you think you want to change the plan?

These rebels can slaughter one village, and more villages can be slaughtered. Do you ask them to work on the construction site to atone for their sins? So where should they go to ask for an explanation for these people who died?

I know you are soft-hearted and you know what you think now. If possible, I don’t want this situation.

But now is not the time for you to feel soft-hearted. Whatever your original plan is, we have to do!"

Zhu Gaoxu looked at Zhu Zhanji unexpectedly and suddenly laughed: "Okay, it's better than this little bastard. I thought you were also a soft-hearted person, but now it seems that you are much better than him after all."

After praising Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Gaoxu said to Yang Shaofeng: "Zhanji is right. You should know the principle of being kind and not being in charge of soldiers. Your current soft-heartedness will cause more people to suffer the suffering in front of you.

Be ruthless and do what you want to do well, and find ways to prevent this kind of suffering from the future is what you should do, instead of saying useless nonsense here.”

Zhu Zhanji also spoke, "Do you remember what happened in Liaozhou? At that time, you stood on the river bank to win a glimmer of vitality for the people, and the people who benefited from it were the people in Liaozhou.

What you are doing now is to benefit the people of the world and even descendants. Which one is more important?

Yang Shaofeng nodded and suddenly bit the meat in his hand hard.

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "Eat slowly, don't choke. We have to continue on our way later."

Zhu Gaoxu took a map, stretched his fingers and gestured for a long time, then said, "We can't stop any longer along the way, even if we encounter such a thing again, we can't stop. Before the evening, we can go to Putai.

I have seen that there are many villages like this along the way. We have suffered disasters, so we can't take care of it. When we turn back into the city, we will let the government in Putai clean up. We will not let them eat for free."

Zhu Zhanji leaned over and looked at the map and said, "It's OK. If we go all the way, we probably won't be able to enter Putai tomorrow night. The longer we drag it, the more people will suffer."

Yang Shaofeng looked at Zhu Gaoxu, then at Zhu Zhanji, and knew in his heart that the two of them were saying what they said to him. He immediately nodded hard, then lowered his head and chewed the piece of meat in his hand that had no idea what it tasted.

...

Li Rusong, the county magistrate of Putai County, did not welcome Yang Shaofeng and others. In other words, Li Rusong did not welcome the five thousand squads of troops behind Yang Shaofeng and three thousand cavalry, especially the leader of the Han King Zhu Gaoxu.

However, no matter how reluctant Yang Shaofeng was, he was holding the Wang Ming flag plaque and Fang Jian. Li Rusong did not have the courage to push Yang Shaofeng to the end. In the end, he honestly let someone open the city gate and welcome Yang Shaofeng and others into the city.

As soon as he entered the city, the whip in Zhu Gaoxu's hand sucked Li Rusong: "I'm so embarrassed! You keep trying to let me stay outside the city, have you eaten the courage of the bear heart and leopard?"

Li Rusong did not dare to hide or scream in pain. He just bowed to Zhu Gaoxu and said, "You should die!"

Zhu Gaoxu wanted to suck again, but he didn't know what he thought of. He just snorted twice and then turned his eyes to Yang Shaofeng: "You say! I'll be angry when I see this kind of poverty!"

Yang Shaofeng nodded, and after nodding, he ignored Li Rusong, and just turned his head and shouted to Qin Zining not far behind him, "Where is Qin Zining!"

Qin Zining bowed and replied, "The last one is here!"

Yang Shaofeng said: "Take your people and help the people repair their houses. You are not allowed to take the people's needles and threads privately. You are not allowed to live in the people's homes at night. Those who violate the leadership will be killed!"

After Qin Zining responded, Yang Shaofeng whispered loudly: "Where is Wu Keqin!"

Wu Keqin whispered loudly: "The last one is here!"

Yang Shaofeng said: "Take your people to camp and camp, and do not disturb the people, and do not enter the house without permission. Those who violate the order will be killed!"

Wu Keqin bowed and shouted, "Get order!"
