Chapter 19-Rolling Heads, Great Qin's Wang Family (1)）
"Kill them!"
Outside Langya City, Ying Lu stood at the edge of the moat and gently placed his hand down.
As Ying Lu's arm fell, the giant axes of a hundred axemen fell, and the heads of the rebels who were kneeling on the ground and tied up with ropes fell to the ground.
It had started early in the morning, and it was already close to noon.
The river water in the moat of Langya City was already dyed red.
Heads rolled in the air, and corpses piled up like mountains outside the city.
The people in the city were frightened by this bloody scene.
At noon yesterday, the emperor was attacked by tens of thousands of pirates when he rode out of the sea to view the Heavenly Dao Imperial Rankings.
These so-called pirates were the real rulers of Qilu, the Tian family.
A fierce battle began from noon to dusk.
While the fierce battle broke out on the sea, there was also a riot in Langya City.
Thousands of rangers were incited to attack the government and cause chaos in the city.
Fortunately, the army outside the city suppressed it in time, which did not lead to a bigger disaster.
There was a fierce battle on the surface of the sea. Blood dyed the sea red. Corpses floated on the surface of the sea like densely packed dead fish, becoming a buffet restaurant for sharks.
Because of the timely rescue at Langya Port, the emperor was safe and sound.
The masterminds of the Tian family chose to flee when they saw that the situation was hopeless.
Those who did not manage to escape in time became prisoners.
Great Qin did not have the habit of keeping captives.
The reason was very simple-Great Qin had obtained the title based on their military merits, and their heads were their military merits.
Captives weren't counted in their heads.
Great Qin prohibited killing civilians for military merits, but it did not prohibit killing captives.
And a head could make an ordinary soldier rise from a soldier to a duke.
Even though a Duke was the lowest rank in Great Qin, after enlisting in the army, one could become a sergeant. If one was lucky, they could even become a sergeant.
Moreover, in Great Qin, a Noble Rank was equivalent to an Official Rank, and only those with a Noble Rank could obtain an Official Rank.
Therefore, the enemy's head was a good thing.
However, this battle was fought on the sea, so there was no time to deal with the prisoners directly.
These people were the traitors who attacked the Sacred Emperor. Their crimes were unforgivable and they would definitely die.
In order to intimidate the people of Qi Lu, this scene was created.
Ying Lu had also been personally appointed by Ying Zheng to be the executioner for this mission.
There were more than 3,000 captured rebels and hundreds of captured rangers. Of course, most of them were relatives who were implicated.
Qin law is strict, action will be implicated.
If one person was guilty, the whole family would be punished.
Although his family members did not deserve death, they would definitely be sent to the border to enrich the population, or directly to Yunzhong County to build the Great Wall.
Therefore, on one side were the rebels who had been beheaded by the moat, and on the other side were the people who were crying and being escorted out by the Qin army.
Ying Lu stood on a high platform, and his arm fell again.
As Ying Lu's arm fell, 100 heads fell to the ground.
The blood gathered into a stream and flowed into the moat outside Langya City.
Although it was noon and the weather was hot, the surrounding people were all disappointed when they saw this scene.
4,000 heads was not a small number, but it was definitely not a lot.
Because Ying Lu was certain that the number of people who died because of this matter was definitely far more than this number.
Whether it was because of the Divine Weapon Rankings or the Tian family's attack, Great Qin would definitely be able to take over the entire Qilu Continent in the near future.
And those who were implicated and were about to be exiled to the border, or even directly executed, would definitely far exceed this number.
Four thousand heads fell to the ground. Ying Lu shook the black robe on his body and turned to look at the person who had been standing behind him all this while.
Zhao Gao.
Accompanying Ying Lu was Zhao Gao, the commander of Zhongche Prefecture.
"Young Master, His Majesty is waiting for you in the palace.”Zhao Gao smiled and cupped his hands at Ying Lu.
Ying Lu sized up Zhao Gao and narrowed his eyes. He then walked past Zhao Gao, mounted his horse, and headed toward the palace outside Langya City.
The security outside Langya Palace was tight.
Every ten steps, there was a sentry post, and every five steps, there were patrolling black-armored Qin soldiers.
Ying Lu dismounted from his horse outside the palace and walked into the palace with Shen Tu in his hand.
When the surrounding Qin soldiers saw Ying Lu, they all looked at the Fifth Prince of the Great Qin Empire with admiration and fanaticism.
Yesterday, Ying Lu's performance was too dazzling. It was as if a god had descended.
He flattened 900 units of armor with a single strike!
He was the number one Divine Artifact on the Great Qin Divine Artifact Rankings, the owner of Shen Tu.
As for that god-like demonic body and the Demon Suppressing Nine Murders, it made countless Qin soldiers yearn for it.
Therefore, every time Ying Lu passed by a Qin soldier, the soldiers would subconsciously straighten their chests.
"Fifth Young Master!"
When Ying Lu arrived at the front of the hall, Wang Ben, the Marquis of Tongwu, stood in front of him and bowed to him. He then said,""It's all thanks to Fifth Young Master's timely discovery of yesterday's matter. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.”
Ying Luwen smiled and looked at Wang Ben.
The Wang family was the true pillar of the Great Qin army.
Wang's grandfather and grandson three generations, a family of two marquises, dignitaries to the extreme.
The Marquis of Martial City, Wang Jian, was an existence akin to Great Qin's God of War.
Although Wang Ben, the son of Wang Jian, wasn't as good as Wang Jian, he was still a talented general.
After Wang Jian destroyed Chu in the final battle, his position was extremely high and he had already risen to the peak of the official path. Therefore, he had long relinquished the military power in his hands and spent his remaining years at home.
But even so, no one dared to look down on Wang Jian, this existence that currently seemed like a rich man.
Right now, Great Qin's only army that could go against the Wang Clan was the Meng Clan.
Meng Tian and Meng Yi were brothers, one in the army and the other in politics.
Meng Tian's current title had already reached the rank of Senior Shu. As long as she improved further, she would be conferred the title of Marquis.
Meng Yi was now in the royal court, a high official, and Ying Zheng's right-hand man.
If the Great Qin Dynasty had the Wang family and the Mongol family, the army would not fall.
"Marquis Tong Wu is too serious. I only did what I should do. Father is still waiting for me.”
Ying Lu said goodbye politely and returned Wang Ben's bow.
Wang Ben didn't dare to be negligent, so he returned Ying Lu's bow.
