I am the villain in the book
#851 - Cool Night (Part 1)
May 4th, Shen time (3-5 PM). The twenty0000 surrendered soldiers of Daqian, coming from Xin Feng, finally arrived at the city of Yongding.
Undoubtedly, such an army would not have much combat power.
But no matter what, this was an army, and the number of people far exceeded the sum of the city's garrison and the Imperial Guards in Yongding City.
Not to mention that most of the latter did not listen to Lu Yuanjin's command, and only wanted to protect themselves in this great chaos.
Therefore, even if there were only 200,000 people, it was enough to besiege the entire Yongding City.
Wei Changtian sat in the tent with Duan Fangping and the other four. On the opposite side, several generals of Xin Feng were kneeling on one knee.
Obviously, although the soldiers were surrendered soldiers, the generals were definitely his own people.
Therefore, apart from a few counselors from the Gongsun family, most of the generals were actually "supported free of charge" by Xu Sui Sui.
Most of these people had seen Wei Changtian during the Battle of Xin Feng, and Wei Changtian also had some impression of them. Therefore, the two sides were not unfamiliar at the moment. After exchanging a few pleasantries, they went straight to the point.
“Well, get up.”
“You must already know what you are here to do in Yongding.”
“Remember, from now on, if any army in the city wants to leave the city, do not stop them, let them leave.”
“But all the people, regardless of men, women, old or young, for whatever reason, must not be let go.”
“I live in the Zhuwu Inn in the south of the city. If there is anything urgent, send someone to tell me, and I will take care of it myself.”
“If there is nothing else, then keep a close eye on the four city gates and wait for my order.”
“Do you all understand?”
“Yes! We understand!”
A neat response sounded immediately, showing that these Xin Feng generals were very respectful to Wei Changtian.
However, after a while, someone tentatively asked:
“Young Master, this subordinate has something I don’t know whether to ask or not.”
“Ask.”
Wei Changtian uttered a word concisely.
“Yes.”
Looking at the colleagues around him, the speaker hesitated for a moment, then asked softly:
“Young Master, if Gongsun Yan dies tomorrow, are we really going to slaughter the city?”
“…”
Silence, you could hear a pin drop.
As soon as these words fell, the main tent fell into a deathly silence, but everyone's expressions were different.
Undoubtedly, even in wartime, slaughtering a city, or slaughtering civilians, was a very harmful thing... even if the people killed were from an enemy country.
What's more, Da Hui had already been defeated.
Therefore, from the perspective of these generals, their mood at the moment can be said to be extremely tangled.
But Duan Fangping and the other four did not have this kind of "psychological burden". At this time, they were all staring at Wei Changtian with rapid breathing, and they obviously had different tendencies in their hearts.
And Wei Changtian did give them the answer they expected very quickly.
“What? Do you think I'm just bluffing?”
“This subordinate, this subordinate dare not!”
The general who had just spoken knelt down on the ground with a “plop” and hurriedly explained in a panic: “This subordinate only thinks that the soldiers under his command are all surrendered soldiers of Daqian, and the morale of the army is inevitably difficult to control.”
“If the Young Master really wants to slaughter the city, we should also make arrangements early...”
“Oh, so that's the case.”
Wei Changtian glanced at the general coldly and slowly stood up.
“Then you can make arrangements in advance.”
“…”
Then you can make arrangements in advance.
Although he did not answer the question directly, this sentence was actually the answer.
The faces of all the generals changed instantly, but no one dared to raise any objection, and they just echoed repeatedly:
“Yes! Please rest assured, Young Master! We understand!”
“Well, it’s good that you understand.”
On the other side, Wei Changtian snorted softly and stopped looking at them. Instead, he turned his head and said to Duan Fangping and the other four:
“Four seniors, we're done here, let's go.”
“Ah! Okay!”
Duan Fangping and the others, who had recovered, hurriedly stood up. The way they looked at Wei Changtian had already become a little fanatical.
If Wei Changtian's performance in the past three days made them feel like they had been "deceived", then the scene at this moment finally made the four of them truly feel what is called the "pattern of a top villain".
This is the capital of a country, the lives of millions of people!
Young Master Wei said kill and kill! He didn't hesitate at all!
Although Duan Fangping and the others had killed many people before, and they had never hesitated or struggled no matter who they killed.
But frankly speaking, if they were to face such a situation... none of the four of Duan Fangping dared to say that they could be as "ruthless" as Wei Changtian.
Sure enough, we didn't come wrong! We didn't come wrong!!!
If they were not in the military camp now, Duan Fangping and the other four would have immediately knelt down to Wei Changtian to express their excitement and worship.
However, they didn't know that Wei Changtian was not as cruel as they thought.
Whether it was "feminine benevolence" or "humanity has not yet been obliterated", in short, he really couldn't do the act of slaughtering a city like Ning Yongnian.
The reason why he didn't tell the truth to those generals was just because he wanted to put on a good show.
Only by letting his own people believe it can the people in the city believe it.
Only in this way can the latter feel the real fear.
About half an hour later, Wei Changtian and the others returned to Zhuwu by car.
It was dusk at this time. On the way back, Yongding City was still calm along the way.
After all, it was just an army besieging the city now, but the news of the city slaughter had not spread, and most of the people were not panicked.
However, it is estimated that this calm will soon cease to exist...
“Husband!”
Yang Liushi, who had been pacing back and forth in the courtyard, immediately greeted her as she returned to the small courtyard.
However, she did not ask about the army outside the city, but said somewhat urgently:
“Chu Xianping sent someone just now, saying that he wants to see you again tonight!”
“Huh?”
Wei Changtian was stunned when he heard this, wondering what Chu Xianping was up to.
Realizing he was going to lose?
Or is there some other conspiracy?
Or just simply want to talk to yourself again?
Frowning and thinking for a moment, Wei Changtian asked:
“Where?”
“At the foot of Longshou Mountain, there is a small lake called Xiangsi, it is there.”
“When?”
“The person said that whenever your husband is free, you can go there, and Chu Xianping will be waiting.”
“Okay, I see, let's eat first.”
Nodding, Wei Changtian still decided to meet Chu Xianping.
Based on his understanding of the latter, this should not be a trap, at least not the kind of clumsy trick of "ambushing and assassinating himself by the lake".
But it was a little unsafe for him to go like this.
“Call Li Zimu here.”
Suddenly, Wei Changtian, who had already taken a few steps, turned back and said in a deep voice:
“Tell her that she will go with me tonight.”
ps: Today one, tomorrow three
