Chapter 1288: The Role of an Abandoned Pawn! [1] (Thanks to: Gai Yonghu Yi Zhu Xiao)
The dust rising to the south of Anyi City quickly approached the city.
It was a large group of cavalry.
To be precise, it was the cavalry led by Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song.
And behind the cavalry, there were countless dense infantry.
Battle flags were connected in pieces, like a black ocean rolling up black waves under the strong wind.
Tens of thousands of troops, even looking from the top of Anyi City, were still hard to see the end of.
With his back to the outside of the city, Yuan Shu, tied to the cross, also seemed to have discovered the movement behind him, enduring the sharp pain from his body and the feeling of ants crawling on his wounds, twisting his neck to look outside the city.
When he saw the army outside the city, Yuan Shu's eyes suddenly filled with ecstasy.
"Haha!"
Yuan Shu laughed miserably and loudly: "Duan Yu, my reinforcements have arrived, my reinforcements have arrived!"
"If you release me now, if you release me now, I can let them spare your life, otherwise... you will all die, you will all die in this Anyi City!"
Listening to Yuan Shu's crazed roar, Duan Yu's mouth rose slightly, sitting sideways on the parapet, picking up the small knife in his hand and slicing another piece of flesh from Yuan Shu's other intact thigh.
"Ah..."
Yuan Shu's threatening voice immediately turned into a painful wail.
Soon, Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song had arrived at a distance of only an arrow's shot from the city wall.
And the Liangzhou troops who were responsible for the execution outside the city also quickly returned to the city to climb the wall and prepare for defense.
When Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song stopped their horses and saw the scene outside the city gate, they couldn't help but gasp.
Headless corpses with their hands tied behind their backs knelt under the Anyi city wall.
Round heads floated on the moat.
The ground seemed to be plated with a layer of red vermilion lacquer by blood.
Although both were brave generals who had fought on the battlefield and had seen many dead bodies.
But this was the first time they had seen such an execution scene.
And this was not a border commandery, but Hedong Commandery.
Those killed were not rebel armies or barbarians.
But the noble clans and powerful families in the city.
Seeing this scene, the two were shocked.
Duan Yu... really took action.
Looking at the city wall, there was one person tied to a rack, and another being subjected to extreme punishment.
And the person sitting to the side, holding a small knife and executing the punishment, was Duan Yu.
Although he couldn't see the face of the person being subjected to extreme punishment.
But just thinking about it, the two guessed that the person should be Yuan Shu, who caused the death of Duan Yu's subordinate Wang Hunu.
The two looked at each other.
Then they looked up at the city wall together.
And Duan Yu, who was sitting sideways on the parapet and executing the punishment, also looked up at Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun outside the city after slicing off a piece of meat and throwing it to Xiao Hei.
Then he turned the cross that Yuan Shu was tied to, facing Yuan Shu toward the two.
"Zhu Jun..."
"Huangfu Song..."
"Save me... ah..."
Yuan Shu, just turned around, shouted loudly to Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song for help.
But before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Duan Yu's sharp knife, turning into a wail of pain.
"Duan Yu, stop!"
Zhu Jun gave a sharp shout.
Duan Yu, sitting on the parapet and executing the punishment on Yuan Shu, did not stop his hand movements, continuing to slice meat from Yuan Shu's thigh, then sprinkling medicine and blood.
After slicing off a piece of meat, he glanced sideways at Zhu Jun, who was on horseback outside the city wearing armor.
"Is this Marquis's name something you can call?"
Duan Yu said in a cold voice: "What kind of thing are you, to dare to order this Marquis?"
Zhu Jun gritted his teeth, his face flushed, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Huangfu Song reaching out.
Huangfu Song shook his head slightly and lowered his voice to Zhu Jun: "Brother Gongwei, there is no point in us arguing with him here, the important matter is more important, let me do it."
After Huangfu Song reached out to stop Zhu Jun, he shook the reins of his warhorse, then rode forward a small step and said to Duan Yu on the city wall: "Marquis of Ji, I am Huangfu Song."
"The Marquis of Ji brought troops out of Liangzhou without the permission of the imperial court, and cruelly killed these people, which is suspicious of treason."
"If the Marquis of Ji releases the Tiger-Brave General of the Household now, and waits for the imperial court and the Empress Dowager's edict, we will not..."
Duan Yu raised an eyebrow and looked at Huangfu Song with a sneer: "Will not what?"
"Just by relying on you group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, do you want to attack this Marquis?"
"Are you worthy?"
Huangfu Song, whose words were interrupted, also had an awkward expression on his face.
And Duan Yu's movements did not pause at all, continuing to slice meat from Yuan Shu's thigh.
"Ah..."
"Ah..."
"It hurts me so much..."
Yuan Shu's painful wails rang out continuously.
His body tied to the cross twisted and struggled.
But the more he struggled, the more it hurt.
The ants crawling all over his left leg were extremely itchy, while his right leg felt waves of sharp pain.
It must be said that Duan Yu's golden sore medicine had excellent curative effects.
So good that Yuan Shu's thigh basically didn't bleed much; as soon as a little blood flowed out, it was immediately stopped.
This meant that Yuan Shu would not go into shock due to excessive blood loss.
At most, he would just faint from the pain.
"Huangfu Song... Zhu Jun..."
"Why are you two wasting words with him? Attack the city, save me..."
"You... do you want to watch me die!"
Yuan Shu struggled and shouted hysterically at Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun: "If I die, you will die too, my uncle will not let you go."
Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun outside the city frowned and looked embarrassed after hearing this.
Duan Yu laughed, continuing to slice meat.
"Shout louder, shout even louder, let them come to save you."
Duan Yu's voice was like a devil's whisper.
It made Yuan Shu's hair stand on end.
"There are still many, many cuts left. Don't worry, my technique is obviously much more skilled now, I estimate a thousand cuts won't be a problem."
"You still have your body, two arms, and your face. After I slice off all your skin, then it will be the flesh."
Yuan Shu shouted for help again at Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun outside the city in terror.
"If they don't come to save you, I estimate I can play with you for a long time. I will torture you for as many days as you hung Hunu outside the city, making you... wish you were dead."
Swish!
The blade swept past, and a piece of bloody flesh was sliced off Yuan Shu's thigh again.
He threw it away, and Xiao Hei looked up to catch it, then swallowed it whole into its belly.
Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song outside the city, seeing this scene, were both in a dilemma. ===== CHAPTER 1290 =====
With a casual toss, Little Black tilted its head to catch it, then swallowed it whole into its belly.
Seeing this scene from outside the city, both Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song were troubled.
