Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

In any case, it is a good thing to be promoted to several ranks of military ranks in succession, and it saves a lot of years of military merits. The problem that Brother Shao is facing now is to establish prestige and control his subordinates, and he must first secure his position as a centurion.

At dusk, Guo Shao left the school grounds, and first went to the military room to fetch a mule from Bendu, so that he could go back to get personal items for marching and fighting. He planned to rush to the military garrison that night after taking the things, and ask about the situation of the mules and horses in the capital.

There were five or six sergeants accompanying him, all of whom were veterans of the fourth team when Guo Shao was ten generals, and they happened to live in the south of the city. These people are obviously more familiar and close to Guo Shao. It is reasonable to turn the fourth team into their own soldiers on the spot. With military power and loyal followers, it will be easier to control the entire army. It is a pity that the ten generals of the fourth team are now Yang Biao. This situation seems rather unpleasant to Guo Shao.

When they reached Zhuque Avenue, Guo Shao called the soldiers to go home, and led the mule through the alley behind him alone. As soon as I entered the alley, I heard the sound of "Ding Ding Bang Bang" smashing things, and the direction came from Yulian's house.

Sure enough, when he reached the door of Chen's house, he heard the sound of beating and scolding and the crying of a woman in the room. Yulian's voice choked with sobs, "Let go of my hair...don't hit me, how can you tell me to meet people..."

"Slut! You still have the face to face people!" The scolding was accompanied by crackling slaps, and the woman's cry was very miserable.

Guo Shao was suddenly enraged, threw away the mule's reins, saw that the pile of firewood was still outside last night, picked up one, rushed to the door, and kicked it sideways with a "bang". The old door panel was not kicked open, but flew directly into the room with the rivets, and the dust on the door was shaken and fell down. Guo Shao, who was wearing more than fifty catties of armor, was as light as a swallow, and he stepped in with one step.

Entering the door is a room like a hall, empty, with only a table, two round stools and a bamboo chair, and broken porcelain pieces on the floor. A man was sitting on a bamboo chair, holding Yulian's hair in his hands. The two were startled by the battle just now, and they both looked at the uninvited visitor who was wearing iron armor.

"Let go of her!" Guo Shao pointed at the man with a stick and shouted.

The man of the Chen family recovered from his astonishment, and snorted angrily and annoyed: "The adulterer is here?"

Kind! Or maybe you haven't realized your danger yet. Without further ado, Guo Shao swept his head with a "hu" stick, and the man instinctively let go of his hands and raised his arms to protect his head. "Crack!" There was a loud bang, and there was a faint sound of bones breaking. The firewood was broken in two, and screams like hissing lungs resounded throughout the alley.

"Guo Lang..." Yulian was also frightened, her face turned pale and her shoulders were shaking.

Guo Shao ignored it, threw away half of the stick and took a step forward, grabbed the man's collar, and tore off a piece of gray cloth with a "wow". He threw away the rag straight away, grabbed the man's injured arm with iron-like hands, and lifted him abruptly from the chair. Being grabbed by the arm that had just been injured and possibly fractured, the man cried out for his father and mother, and it was unbearable to hear.

Guo Shao strode out the man who weighed at least a hundred catties like a chicken, and when he threw it outside, the man rolled and fell into the foul-smelling gutter, unable to get up after struggling.

"Stop it, someone is going to die!" Yulian followed, her voice trembling.

Guo Shao was full of murderous aura, his face was livid, he stood like this for a while before he said coldly: "I have been promoted to be the head of a hundred people, the commander above knows that the captain-in-law captain Zhang Yongde has something to do with me."

His voice was not loud, cold and emotionless, but it sounded inexplicably scary. He wasn't showing off, nor was he trying to take advantage of others... He was just stating a fact: the government of the two counties in Tokyo would never dare to dispose of a Forbidden Army Capital without authorization, and the commander of the Forbidden Army, Wang Degong, would not really do anything to Guo Dutou because of Zhang Yongde's face. Then Yang Biao beat someone disabled for no reason, and if no one spoke for him, it was just a demotion.

The man from the Chen family hadn't fainted yet, crying and looking at Guo Shao in fear. For a while, the two frightened men and women didn't seem to remember what Guo Shao was talking about.

Guo Shao slowly reached out and touched the barrier knife worn on his waist, "Silk..." The metal rubbed against the scabbard with a soft and cold sound.

"You, what are you going to do?" Yulian hurriedly grabbed Guo Shao's wrist, and widened her frightened eyes. Guo Shao's voice: "I dug up the abscess from the wound for you."

...

Reflecting the last ray of light coming in from outside the alley, the knife face was raised slowly, the whole movement seemed extraordinarily long. Yulian could have tried a little more to stop Guo Shao, such as stepping forward to hold Guo Shao's arm; but she didn't do that, and she didn't even persuade her at the last moment, she seemed to be frightened and stood there, just watching the whole process.

The trajectory of the steel knife is not impatient, but without hesitation. Hearing a scream, blood splashed onto the earthen wall next to him, and the head of the man from the Chen family fell heavily on the stone in the gutter, a stream of blood polluted the sundries and sewage in the ditch.

With the chilling dull sound of the blade piercing the flesh, and the air stained red by the blood mist, everything seemed to be over!

Seeing him being killed in the filth like this, Yulian felt very uncomfortable for a moment, feeling that he was very pitiful. In fact, she never really hated this man, even if he often beat and scolded her, she only felt pitiful and contemptuous in her heart.

But mere pity and sympathy can't support her struggling to survive in such a difficult way. A woman in a family has endured gossip for years and has to take care of a disabled husband who is addicted to alcohol. Although she didn't want to admit it, this cruel scene really made her inexplicably relieved... It's just that Yulian still felt very guilty for letting an outside man, someone who had rumors and rumors, kill her husband in front of her.

She didn't even have the time to think about how it would end after she was killed, and she was stunned in complicated emotions for a while. Until Guo Shao called her: "You go and call someone, let the neighbors go to the official shop facing the street to sue the officials, and say that I killed your man."

Yulian's face was pale, she turned her head to look at him and asked in a daze, "I'm suing you?" She found that Guo Shao was slowly wiping the blood on the knife with a cloth after the murder.

At this moment, a scream was heard from a house not far away: "Killed, killed, killed..."

... Yulian hurriedly called the neighbors as she said, saying that brother Shao killed someone, and everything was true.

After being confused for a while, she gradually figured out what had happened in the past two days. What Guo Shao said last night was "not sure", and just now he said that he was promoted and made friends with so-and-so dignitaries: because until last night, he was not sure whether he would be severely punished if he killed someone, but today he was finally convinced that he didn't have to pay for killing someone!

This person is scheming, even when he is impulsive, he will not act recklessly, but when he has the chance to win, he is very ruthless, and his methods of killing are even more brutal. He is really a terrifying person. But Yulian realized that he was not the kind of unscrupulous person, because he didn't kill people for himself.

Even if it doesn't pay off to kill, there will always be trouble and a price to pay! Killing the son of the Chen family is obviously of no benefit to himself. And this morning he gave the land deed to Yulian for nothing...Why did he treat himself so well? Yulian naturally thought that Brother Shao was interested in her. But thinking about it still doesn’t make sense. Brother Shao is a tall man at a young age. He has just been promoted to the head of the capital. It is not difficult to find a girl with a yellow flower;

It didn't take long before the official servants came. The first ones were the servants from the official store on the commercial street. The two servants saw that Guo Shao was armed to the teeth with a battle armor. How could they solve it? Then the officials in the county government brought more people, and Wu Zuo also went to the back alley.

I saw Guo Shao sitting in the shop, the murder weapon was placed on the anvil next to him, as if he was waiting to be caught. A group of officials in soap clothes and countless onlookers surrounded the outside, but no one dared to step into the shop.

It was the first time that Yulian looked at him so carefully in the crowd, and her mind was confused. What kind of person is he?

At this time, the officials dispersed the people for a while, and one of the gangsters clasped his fists and said, "The victim has passed away. The deceased's left arm was broken, his shoulder bone was dislocated, and his face was slashed with a sharp knife into a fatal wound..."

A man wearing a wooden bone lacquer gauze head and a blue round-neck toga pointed at Guo Shao and asked, "You killed the man? Why did you kill him?"

"I killed him. That man surnamed Chen spoke rudely and annoyed me. I wanted to beat him up, but accidentally killed him." Guo Shao sat without moving, appearing very rude. But looking at the color of the official's clothes and the style of the Futou, one can tell that he is a low-level official, maybe not as high as Guo Shao, the imperial guard.

After hearing this, a man in a tall hat next to him wanted to step forward to grab someone, but suddenly he saw Guo Shao reaching out to pick up the knife next to him. The officer was startled, took two steps back, and blurted out: "You committed a murder, how dare you resist?!"

Unexpectedly, he got up and picked up the barrier knife, but threw it out to show that he would not resist, and he took the initiative to confess: "I am Guo Shao, the capital of the Xiaodi Army under the command of the Dianqian Division, and the commander is in the north of Fengqiu Gate, and the commander is Wang Degong."

After hearing this, the official quickly stretched out his hand to stop the leader of the guard, and said in a low voice: "Immediately send someone to the north of the city to inform the general about this matter."

The person next to him asked, "What about the criminal?"

Guan Erdao pondered for a moment, then said: "Take the corpse from the back alley back to the yamen for autopsy and collect the murder weapon. After finding out the facts of the case, report it to the hall lord first, and then make a decision. Don't act rashly. Leave a few people here to watch, go in and tell Guo Dutou to go to the back first to avoid it... It would be better if you can write a confession."

Yulian outside saw that Guo Shao was fine, so she silently detoured to the back alley and went back to her home to wait.
