The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 725 Ming Canon Punishment
Ma Wan's eyes were fixed, they were in this narrow house at this time, and neither of them would be spared in the event of an explosion.Gritting his teeth, he did not retreat but advanced, doing everything he could.With a flash of the sharp blade, it fully attacks the opponent's vital points.

Xing Zhen seemed to have given up his defense, fixed his eyes on Ma Wan, opened his hands, and hugged him.Even if he was stabbed several times, he would not let go.

Ma Wan was very anxious, and the sharp blade kept stirring on his chest, trying to make him lose his strength and let go.But Xing Zhen seemed to have made up his mind to drag him to be buried with him, and he tightly hugged his waist with his hands tightly bound.

Seeing that the fire rope was about to burn to the end, Ma Wan suddenly felt sticky in her hand, she had a flash of inspiration, and immediately wiped Xing Zhen's chest, took out a handful of blood, and poured it on the fire rope.

The blood fell on the fire rope, and the sparks were instantly annihilated.

Xing Zhen looked down slightly, and couldn't help showing disappointment on his face, "It's a pity, it's hateful!"

The hands finally loosened weakly, and the whole person seemed to be deflated, limp on the ground, and had already died of breath.

After killing Xing Zhen, Ma Wan couldn't help but let out a long breath, it was really extremely dangerous just now, if the gunpowder hadn't been extinguished at the last moment, I'm afraid she would have lost all bones.

At this time, the soldiers outside the room finally kicked open the door and rushed in.Ma Wan looked at the menacing soldiers and horses, immediately took out a token, and shouted weakly: "I am the shadow guard Ma Wan, the thief has already been executed."

After confirming the token, the leading general immediately said respectfully: "Master Commander, shall I send you back to rest?"

"No, please call Duan Xiao and the others over." Ma Wan was sitting next to Xing Zhen's body, grinning and said, "I want to smack in front of them."

Not long after, Duan Xiao led the people and rushed over in a panic, and saw Ma Wan and Xing Zhen lying beside him at a glance.Can't help but glared at Ma Wan angrily, "Ma Wan, Commander Ma, did you call us here just to show off?"

"Where, I just met him by chance, haha!" Ma Wan gave a rare smile, "I didn't expect that I would be so lucky that I would run into him wherever I went."

"Hey, you can just laugh." Duan Xiao glanced at him appreciatively, "When I was chasing, I wondered, the traces left by that guy were too obvious. It was only later that I realized that the other party must have He ran in another direction. He came this way, but he was already killed by you. Did you figure out the direction of his escape early in the morning? You didn’t tell us on purpose, you kid is getting more and more sinister .”

Ma Wan smiled slightly, lifted Xing Zhen's coat to reveal the explosives inside, and said with lingering fear, "It's a good thing you didn't follow, otherwise, with so many people in a mess, I don't know how many people would be injured or killed."

Duan Xiao squatted down to check in surprise, and lost his voice, "The match is so short? How did you kill it and extinguish the match?"

So Ma Wan described his previous battle to everyone.

"It's okay, it's okay. Fortunately, it was wiped out with blood, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to see you." Duan Xiao patted Ma Wan's shoulder lightly, "Okay, the black-clothed guards have been killed, it's time to find It's time for those gentry to be in trouble."

In the early hours of the morning, the Dongyang Army's crazy attack finally stopped and retreated slowly.

The defenders lay down on the city wall exhaustedly, making sound of sound sleep from time to time.They didn't sleep all night, they were really sleepy.The old and the weak in the logistics were silently busy beside them, and it didn't take long before breakfast was brought to them to fill their stomachs.

The sun rises, and the sky is full of red clouds.Ren Ping and Liu Jing climbed onto the city wall together, beside them were hundreds of old and weak women and children, huddled together, howling and weeping bitterly.

Everyone looked at the two adults in puzzlement, as they thought about what happened last night, they had a faint understanding in their hearts.

At this time, Liu Jing, who is the state shepherd, stood up and shouted sharply: "Everyone, you must have heard about what happened last night, right? The group of people on the city wall intended to collude with foreigners last night and steal the city. Let the Dongyang army kill the family members of the traitors who entered the city. Fortunately, God bless me, Tianhua, and my people. The rebellion last night has been wiped out. Although the traitors have been punished, but in troubled times, the family members may be innocent, but the family is one. How can you be lenient? After discussing with the general, I decided to make a judgment on the rebel clans in accordance with the wartime laws."

Immediately, Ren Ping, who was next to Liu Jingchao, nodded slightly, and stepped aside.

Ren Ping stood up and shouted with a gloomy face: "Last night's rebellion involved [-] families of the gentry, and the other five repented in time and never participated in the rebellion. According to the war law, the three families of the rebels, their parents, wives, brothers, etc. are directly related. Relatives, all beheaded to show the public. The rest of the distant relatives, who are within the three clans, are all demoted to hard labor, and each has a different period of imprisonment. The remaining five noble clans are timely, so they will not be punished, as a show of encouragement."

The family members of the five gentry families heard the words, it was like rain from the sky, they couldn't help being grateful, they all knelt down to thank them, and hurriedly left the group of rebellious families.

The rest of the family members of the rebel gentry burst into tears, wailing and cursing.The rest of the distant relatives in each house isolated and rebelled relatives. Although they were implicated because of the decision of the head of the family, at least they were not guilty of death.But because of being implicated innocently, at this moment, I hated them, the relatives of the Patriarch, even more.

The people below were even more angry and shouted that they wanted to cut them into pieces.My own son was desperately defending Qingyang City on the city wall, but these gentry even cooperated with the enemy inside and out and opened the city gate.Once the city falls, will their family still have a chance to survive?

For a while, the crowd was raging, if there were no soldiers blocking them, they would have rushed up to beat and kick them.

At this time, the major gentry in the city were also invited to watch the execution.When they saw so many people being killed and implicated because of a rebellion, they couldn't help but break out in cold sweat, secretly glad that they didn't participate in it.

"Execution!" With an order, the soldiers immediately rushed up and arrested the relatives of the isolated rebels, no matter old or young, women or children, and pushed them all to the edge of the city, where they knelt down in rows.

The executioner stood behind the prisoner, raised his big knife, and chopped down without hesitation.The head immediately flew under the city wall and hit the ground, bloody and bloody.If it hadn't been for this period of time, the common people were used to seeing killings on the battlefield, and they might have dispersed in a hurry.

"next batch!"

"next batch!"

Human heads were thrown down to the bottom of the city like dumplings.Even people who are used to seeing corpses can't help turning their faces away, not daring to look directly at them.

At this time, the faces of the major gentry had turned pale, and they were trembling all over.They had never seen the Tianhua army so cruel, even when they captured Qingzhou, they never treated those who opposed them so cruelly.At this moment, the Tianhua army seemed to be using this action to tell them that they must not touch Tianhua's bottom line, otherwise they would die ugly.And the bottom line, in addition to rebellion, is collusion with other races.
