Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child

These people were pressed down and knelt on the ground.

Chen Jun deliberately frightened them, forcing them to cry.

The miserable cry passed through the earthen wall and reached the ears of the soldiers of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

I can only watch those innocent people die tragically, but I can't help them.

——This is tantamount to the most painful mental torture for the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

The howling continued all day.

At the moment when the sun was setting, Chen Jun raised their butcher's knife again.

All the crying stopped,

The world fell silent.

It was deathly silence.

Tonight, Chen Jun didn't even deal with the corpses, and let those silky and miserable corpses be thrown in the open space, to be pecked by the crows that smelled blood.

Every day that followed, Chen Jun would arrest a group of Liaodong civilians, force them to cry for help, and then brutally end their lives at sunset.

This continued until the fifth day.

The spirits of the soldiers of the Eastern Expedition Army became very weak. They could risk everything to fight the enemy to the death on the battlefield, but they couldn't accept that they could do nothing while watching ordinary people being slaughtered.

Some soldiers with relatively poor psychological endurance have already begun to show symptoms of trance.

They began to be afraid of the rising sun, and they dared not face those eyes eager to live.

Xiao Juan knew that this was the purpose of Chen Jun's coach.

They did all this to destroy the morale of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Now it seems that most of their tricks have succeeded.

Next, as long as there is another dose of strong medicine at the end, the soldiers of the Eastern Expedition Army will be completely collapsed.

The potion will come soon——

Today, the Chen Army proudly showed off to the soldiers of the Eastern Expedition Army behind the earthen wall.

"Come out and have a look, see what good things we brought you today?"

On the sentry tower, Tang Guixi watched as Chen Jun dragged a group of ragged people out.

Although those people were all covered with injuries, and some were missing arms and legs, Tang Guixi saw several familiar faces inside at a glance.

Those were all soldiers of the Eastern Expeditionary Army!

In the previous battles, the Eastern Expeditionary Army retreated steadily due to insufficient food and grass, and lost most of their soldiers and horses.

Many of them were unfortunately captured.

Tang Guixi originally thought that he wrote that the captives had been killed.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jun did not kill them.

At this time, Tang Guixi watched them kneel on the ground, and Chen Jun pressed their backs with a machete, forcing them to bow their heads.

Also, Chen Bing deliberately stepped on the injured part of their bodies, watching them die of pain, Chen Bing let out malicious laughter.

A Chen Bing brought a horse, he grabbed a prisoner with a broken leg, put a rope around the prisoner's neck, and then rode the horse and ran across the open space.

The prisoner could only chase after him desperately, but he only had one leg, how could he catch up with the speed of the horse?

Soon he fell to the ground in embarrassment.

Seeing this, Chen Bing flicked the reins vigorously, and the horse under him ran faster.

The captive was dragged forward like this, his flesh was scratched, and his already broken body became more and more broken.

Seeing the prisoner lying on the ground like a dead dog, the soldiers beside him laughed even more enthusiastically.

This scene deeply stimulated the spirit of the soldiers of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

The people who were killed a few days ago are pitiful, but they have no relationship with the soldiers of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

But now it's different.

The people who are being brutally insulted and abused now are their former comrades, their comrades-in-arms who once lived and died with them.

How can they bear the pain of the skin?

Many people in the Eastern Expedition Army couldn't hold back and cried.

They wanted to rush out to save others, but were quickly held back by their companions.

They are soldiers, soldiers who regard military orders more important than their lives.

As long as General Tang doesn't speak, none of them can move.

On the sentry tower, Tang Guixi's emotions and reason were struggling desperately.

She knew that this was the enemy's trick, and she couldn't be fooled, but she really couldn't let her watch her former subordinates being tortured to death!

What should she do?

At this moment, a sharp arrow pierced through the air and shot directly at Chen Bing on horseback.

The arrow pierced through the chest.

Before Chen Bing had time to react, he was killed on the spot.

With his eyes wide open, he fell straight off the horse.

The horse then stopped.

What stopped at the same time was the laughter of the surrounding soldiers.

Tang Guixi turned his head abruptly, looked in the direction of the sharp arrow, and saw Xiao Juan appearing behind the earthen wall at some point.

He held a bow in his hand, and the bowstring was still trembling slightly.

Xiao Juan ignored the gazes of the people around him, and continued to draw his bow and arrows, aiming at those Chen soldiers.

Everyone's hearts were raised accordingly.

Those Chen soldiers stood very close to the captives, and if the arrows were slightly off, they would hurt the captives.

This is why the archers of the Eastern Expedition Army dare not do it.

They were afraid that when they shot an arrow, instead of killing the enemy, they shot their comrades to death.

Xiao Juan didn't have so many worries.

He let go of his finger and shot another arrow.

This arrow once again hit a Chen Bing accurately.

Now, all Chen soldiers are afraid.

They retreated in a hurry, shooting out of the range of their bows and arrows.

The captives were just thrown in the open space.

Seeing this, Tang Guixi and the soldiers of the Eastern Expedition Army breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

In any case, the captives no longer have to suffer inhuman abuse for the time being, nor do they need to face cruel mental torture.

However, all this is not over yet.

When the sun goes down, those Chen soldiers who have suffered thousands of knives will still point their butcher knives at the captives.

Xiao Juan threw the bow and arrow to Meng Xizhou who was following him.

He turned and left, strode up the sentry tower, and found Tang Guixi.

"It can't go on like this."

Tang Guixi looked ugly: "Of course I know I can't let them go on like this, but I can't stop them."

Xiao Juan: "I have an idea."

Tang Guixi signaled him to speak.

Xiao Juan: "Remember when we captured Hengcheng, we captured those Chen Army prisoners?"

Tang Guixi naturally still remembered, she said with a frown.

"But most of those captives are dead."

Most of those captives committed many crimes, Tang Guixi never thought of recruiting them, she dealt with them according to the crimes they had committed, and all those who committed the crime of adultery and murder were executed.

But there are always exceptions. Among the captives, there were a few honest people who were left behind and became hard labor in the barracks.

Tang Guixi: "The remaining prisoners who are still alive are also insignificant soldiers. The Chen Army may not be willing to let our people go for them."

But Xiao Juan said, "Have you heard the allusion of fake eyes?"

Tang Guixi thought for a moment, then opened his eyes wide.

"Don't you think... But this is too dangerous! If the other party finds out, you will die!"

Xiao Juan: "Do you have a better way?"

Tang Guixi was speechless immediately.
