At the end of Qin, I became a son of the plane

Chapter 45, Killing and punishing the heart

Facing the two-sided attack by the rebels, the morale of the Qin army collapsed completely. The Qin soldiers no longer wanted to fight, but fled to the rear one by one, throwing off their helmets and armor. Even their officers could not prevent the collapse of the army.

The Qin army was fleeing for their lives, but it gave the rebel cavalry time to exert their maximum combat effectiveness. No matter when, it is impossible for a two-legged man to outrun a four-legged horse. When the enemy's back is turned, it is doomed. They have handed over their life and death to the rebels.

The rebels certainly didn't want these Qin troops to leave Nanton County alive.

Xu Fan led hundreds of cavalry in pursuit.

"Spare your life!" The Qin soldiers who had run for several miles were out of breath from exhaustion. Seeing that they could not escape and had no strength to escape, they had no choice but to throw away the spears in their hands and surrender.

Xu Fan shouted: "Get out of the way and surrender to the rebels in the rear, so that you will not die."

The surrendered Qin army rolled away from the road and came to both sides of the road. They watched helplessly as Xu Fan led the cavalry away, leaving behind smoke and dust that could not be dispersed for a long time.

"Captain Huang, what should we do?" The soldiers around looked at their commander.

The commander of the camp, Huang Hu, originally wanted to have enough rest and escape, but when he saw the smoke and dust behind him, he could only smile bitterly and said: "Surrender. Whether we live or die, it all depends on God's will."

Not long after, Wu Sheng led his soldiers here. He saw the killing intent on the faces of these Qin soldiers, as well as the rebel soldiers behind. They had not forgotten the hatred of their relatives.

Huang Hu said in a panic: "Your leader agreed to our surrender, and also promised to protect us from death!"

Wu Sheng thought for a moment and said, "Take them back."

Wu Sheng and the others pursued them all the way, taking over the prisoners of the Qin army. In the end, more than 400 Qin soldiers were captured.

Xu Fan pursued the Qin army to the banks of the Yingshui River. The Qin army that fled here was blocked by the Yingshui River.

Meng Shao looked at the few soldiers around him, and then at the rebel cavalry who were about to kill him, looking up to the sky and sighing: "God wants to kill me!" He immediately wanted to draw his sword and kill himself.

"Cang!" Xu Fan shot an arrow at Meng Shao's long sword. This time Xu Fan showed his extraordinary performance and actually knocked away Meng Shao's long sword with an arrow.

Xu Fan rode his horse closer and knocked Meng Shao to the ground with one shot. He snorted: "It's not that easy to die."

"Tie him up and take him back to Nanton County."

The rebel soldiers captured the Qin army, tied up Meng Shao, stuffed cloth around his mouth, threw his horse on his horse, and then everyone returned to Nanton County.

Under Nanton County.

At this time, the rebel army happily took in the prisoners of war of the Qin army, collected the weapons and equipment of the Qin army, and buried the soldiers and local people who died in the battle on both sides.

Wu Sheng was even more happy to see Xu Fan and reported: "General, our army killed more than 300 Qin soldiers in this battle, captured more than 500 people, seized 300 bows, thousands of sets of weapons and armor, and 25 sets of iron armor, as well as 3000 stones of grain, 80 war horses, these weapons and equipment can arm thousands of rebels."

Xu Fan laughed and said: "We also captured Meng Shao, the commander of the Qin army. Later we will use Meng Shao's blood to commemorate the people who died tragically in Nanton County."

Wu Sheng also looked surprised when he saw Meng Shao. At this time, the people of Nanton County also knew that Xu Fan had captured the Qin army's commander, the butcher who forced their fellow villagers to go to the battlefield.

All the people in Nanton County came to the avenue to watch. When they saw Meng Shao, they even shouted with hatred: "Beat him to death!"

This sound seemed to be a signal, and the people of Nanton County threw clods, stones and other objects at Meng Shao. Soon Meng Shao was hit with a bloody head, and even the horse that came to ambush him suffered damage.

Xu Fan had no choice but to shout loudly: "Fellow folks, please stop. I understand your feelings, but the rebels caught him because they wanted to avenge my tragic death. Please be patient. We will be at the county government office later." Judge this butcher and seek justice for all the people who died tragically."

After Xu Fan said this, the people of Nanton County stopped, but they also followed Xu Fan to the county government office. Soon the streets of the county office were filled with local people.

Xu Fan prepared a hanger.

Then he ordered the soldiers to take Meng Shao over and untie the cloth from Meng Shao's mouth.

Xu Fan pointed at Meng Shao and said loudly: "When the two armies are fighting, life and death are destined to be determined by destiny, but this butcher not only involved innocent people in the war, but also made the people become dead soldiers, resulting in heavy casualties for the people of our Nanton County. Today our rebels will avenge the tragic deaths of the people of Nanton County."

Meng Shao looked at Xu Fan with hatred and said: "Kill him or her. What should you do if you find so many reasons? The two armies are fighting with all possible means. These people follow the rebels, which is rebellion. According to Qin law, they only need to go to the battlefield to do anything." Atonement.”

Xu Fan said with a cold face: "Forget about the people inside the city. The people outside the city are obviously being honest people of Great Qin. You don't train them or arm them, but you still drive them to die. You, Great Qin, are Are you massacring your own people like this? Or do you simply not regard the people of Nanton County as the subjects of Da Qin? There have been armies that massacred your own people since ancient times?"

Meng Shao was really speechless when Xu Fan said this, because he really did not regard the people of Nanton County or even the entire Chen County as subjects of the Qin Dynasty, otherwise he would not have captured them and sent them to die on the battlefield. The Qin Dynasty Although there are such death-defying armies, they generally use criminal civilians, and ordinary people will not consume them like this.

But in the eyes of old Qin people like Meng Shao, the Six Kingdoms were all defeated, and they ruled the territories of the Six Kingdoms with the victors. In order to maintain their own interests, they did not regard the people of the Six Kingdoms as the people of Great Qin. The Kanto region has always viewed these places with a colonial attitude.

"Kill him, kill him!" the people of Nanton County roared in unison.

Meng Shao took a step back in fear when he saw these people who hated him, and felt a little regretful in his heart.

Xu Fan stopped the roar of the people and said loudly: "Qin General Meng Shao massacred the people of Nanton County and committed war crimes. As the leader of the rebel army, I sentence you to death by hanging and you will be executed immediately."

Two soldiers put the noose on Meng Shao's head. Only then did he realize that he was really going to die. He was a little scared and panicked inside. But when he saw the people who hated him, he said, "I am a Qin official. You hang me." Kill me, and when the imperial army comes, they will definitely avenge me, and Nanton County will be filled with blood, and I will wait for you in the underworld."

Deng Zong impatiently pulled up the rope, and Meng Shao was hung directly in the air. After struggling for a while, he died completely.

Seeing this scene, many people whose relatives died tragically in the war cried.

But more people remembered what Meng Shao said before he died, and were too frightened to speak out. The high officials of the Qin State died here. Will the Qin army let them go?
  Thinking of the brutality of the Qin army, they shuddered in their hearts.

The next day, when the rebels were about to continue their march south to Xiang County, almost the entire people of Nanton County followed the rebels southward.
