Chapter 62 The poor people at the border
The reason Khitan panicked was because their previous provocative behavior towards Longguo tended to be more verbal and harassing.

Harassing the border and people of the Dragon Kingdom, using this behavior to show their position and express their loyalty to the Tang Kingdom.

But they didn't expect that Long Guo's temper would be so strong that he would actually say that there was going to be a war, so they directly sent troops over.

And it was an army of [-].

Although Khitan also has certain strength, it is obviously not cost-effective to face the enemy's [-] army just as a dog's leg.

The most important thing is that they provoked the Dragon Kingdom for the sake of the Tang Kingdom. Now facing the pressure of the Dragon Kingdom's army, the Tang Kingdom has not expressed anything until now.

This made the Khitan side feel a little bit thankless, and even more of a feeling that stealing chickens would not pay off.

Facing the [-] army of Dragon Kingdom, Khitan would suffer huge losses no matter whether they directly challenged it or came forward to seek peace.

And such a loss, Khitan obviously didn't want to face it, so he sent people to Tang State, hoping to seek Tang State's help.

After all, he provoked Long Guo to hug Tang Guo's thigh and show Tang Guo to see.

Now that something really happened, they felt that Tang Guo would not stand idly by.

After dispatching the ministers, the leader of the Khitan felt much more relieved, and prepared to wait quietly for the arrival of the soldiers or attitudes of the Tang Dynasty. Whether it was the attitude of the Tang Dynasty that deterred the Dragon Kingdom, or directly coming to the army, in Khitan's view, it was all right. help them.

Besides, Li Ke, while advancing directly towards Khitan with his army, passed by several villages at the border, and found that many villagers were fleeing.

Li Ke asked people to ask about the situation.

The people who came back told Li Ke that the people who fled were all villagers from the frontier of Longguo.

During this period of time, the Khitan has continuously crossed the border to provoke the Dragon Kingdom, burning, killing, and looting the people of the Dragon Kingdom at the border.

The people at the border were forced to leave their homes, and that's why this scene of fleeing happened.

But at the same time, according to our understanding, there are still many people at the border gates who have not escaped, and even people in some places cannot escape.

Hearing this, Li Ke's face was gloomy, and he couldn't imagine what these Khitan soldiers would do to the people in these villages.

So Li Ke waved his hand and ordered the army to move on. He and the general Li Yong led thousands of soldiers to the nearby villages to check the situation and rescue the innocent people at the same time.

No matter which country the people on the border must have a hard time.The same is true for the Dragon Kingdom, especially the border border with Khitan.

At this moment, a village called Dawangzhuang in this pass is facing looting by Khitan soldiers.

This village is a very large town on the border between the Dragon Kingdom and Khitan, with probably tens of thousands of people.

But at this time, these tens of thousands of people were being besieged by thousands of Khitan soldiers on the huge flat ground in the middle of the Zhuangzi in Dawangzhuang.

On this flat land, tens of thousands of villagers looked at the Khitan soldiers around them in fear.

Each of these soldiers was holding a scimitar and wearing animal skin armor. All of them smiled horribly, showing ferocious faces. Looking at these common people, they seemed to be looking at lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

One of the Khitan generals stood up, waved the scimitar in his hand, and roared:

"Listen, everyone, hand over all your money. All precious things are not allowed to be left behind, hand them all in.

There are also beautiful women under the age of 40 who all stand up and follow us, otherwise they will all be buried here. "

Faced with the general's threats and intimidation, tens of thousands of people still gathered together in fear, and no one stood up and surrendered.

Seeing no movement for a long time, the Khitan general gradually lost his patience. He waved the scimitar in his hand, pointed at a respected old man in the village, and said to the soldiers under him:
"Drag this old thing out and behead it to the public, and let them see what happens if they don't obey."

A few soldiers rushed out, dragged the old man out forcefully, and fell on him without saying a word, the old man didn't even frown until he died.

Countless villagers showed angry eyes, looking at those Khitan people with hatred.

The Khitan general continued to speak:

"If you don't do what I want, this old man will be your next fate. I will say it again for the last time, hand over all your valuables, and all your women! Otherwise, I will hand over all of you One tortured to death."

No one fears them.

Everyone, some are still angry.

The general was completely enraged. He waved his sword and said to his subordinates:
"Catch those little dolls who are about ten years old, kill them all, set up a fire, and let the brothers roast and eat!"

Hearing this, the soldiers under their hands showed greedy eyes. When they looked at the young children, it seemed that they were really looking at little lambs.

It seems that these living people are delicacies in their eyes.

Then these people rushed up with knives and forcibly dragged the young boys and girls out of the crowd.

Ignore the crying of their parents and the beating and scolding of their family members.

About 200 young children were all gathered to one side.

All around were Khitan soldiers, holding machetes in their hands, waiting for the general's order.

"Beast, beast, you bloody bastards, you are not human..."

In the crowd, an old man stood up and roared.

Similarly, some young people impulsively wanted to rush out to do something, but they were dragged away.

"You damn aliens, our Dragon Kingdom's army will definitely come to save us..." Some women also spoke angrily.

 Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a reward!
