Liyang is located in the key river and land junction of Jianghuai River and Huai River. Generally, it is the first choice for military use when he or she is opposite to the north and south. The river turns north and south, and is called Hengjiang. Once it passes by the river, it will be a fertile land of a flat river in Jiangdong. It will rush eastward and be accessible every night. It can be called the gateway of Jiangdong's fences.

In addition to its own beautiful geography, Liyang is also a handful of rich places north of the river. In Zhaoguan, at the foot of Tianmen Mountain, there are continuous fertile soil, clear water and beautiful fields, and it is called the hometown of fish and rice.

Today, Liyang has a slightly different appearance than in the old days. Although Su Jun, the Shaoling Gong, who guarded this place, had a strong military style, his civilized management was a little inferior. From the west bank of the river to the land, there were continuous camps, almost no limit. Many former military camps were abandoned, and the ditches built in the early years were filled with weeds. Now they are only used as grasslands for horses, with various destroyed weapons scattered everywhere in the grass.

There are continuous shacks in the remote area outside the camp, where there are a large number of refugees living in the south. Because there are neither acres of official garrisons in the Liyang area, and the county government has no time to organize resettlement, they can only stay here for a long time. As for the source of their livelihood, on the one hand, they are foraging in the wild, and on the other hand, they have to work for the county government and the military to barely make a living. Life is extremely difficult.

For these refugees who were forced to stay here, the best way to improve their survival experience is to be recruited into the military. But the Liyang army is the most inseparable soldiers, and ordinary families can't easily be selected. Therefore, most people can only hope that the generals can drive them to go into the mountains to log wood, or wading through water and open canals in exchange for a little bit of food. But if even these hardworking jobs cannot be done, ordinary elderly, weak, sick and disabled can only lie in shacks and wait for death.

From time to time, soldiers and generals roared past the wilderness. No matter where they were hunting, it was a disaster for the refugees there. A large number of people were driven into the wilderness and drove their prey together in groups to concentrate. In this process, many people naturally died under the minions of beasts.

If these people who died suddenly had relatives at home, they could collect the corpses for them. If the first-class people were exposed to the wilderness, they would rot with the plants and trees. After a long time, the white bones would be left in the weeds. As for the worst, the corpses were picked up and washed and placed in boiling soup for food, and there would be no complete corpses to die.

In the wilderness, inside and outside, are the luxurious villas located around the county town. Although the people's livelihood is withered, Liyang is not without wealth. Liyang's own rich natural environment, bamboo and wood materials all over the mountains, various minerals that can be produced, and abundant labor that is almost cost-free, are enough to make money.

What's more, when Liyang and the central government had not yet had a bad relationship, a large amount of military supplies and resources were continuously transported here, and they were transported north to Yuzhou and made huge profits. Therefore, the richness of the generals and officials in Liyang was really not worthy of being told by outsiders.

However, as time passed, Liyang's superior and transcendent status in his early years gradually disappeared, and the most significant change was that boats and boats traveling from the capital to transport supplies gradually became rare. As other places bet on this, Liyang's situation gradually became embarrassing. This was gradually unbearable for those refugee men who were used to the leisurely years of the past.

More than ten miles south of Liyang County, there is an extremely open valley. The place is full of flags and brigades, and the soldiers are very tight. There is a grand building on the hillside in the middle. It is the current champion general and the Grand Prix of Liyang Inner Historical Central Army. More than 5,000 soldiers are stationed here all year round, which are the elite combat soldiers in Liyang Army.

There were several long horse-resisting horses inside the gate, and hundreds of soldiers were stationed here to strictly check the people and others. The stern armor, cold light, and strong body made people shudder.

After the horse-rejected camp was a strictly standardized camp. A flat and wide road led directly to the central army's tent, and the two sides of the avenue were connected to the paths that were to the various camps. Fire-proof sand was always placed in the locations near the camps, while various weapons were piled up on the slightly wide open space between the camps. When there was no training or assignment, the soldiers were each stayed in the camps to raise their strength, or under the organization of the chief and the captain to perform some military-style games.

Near the central army, there is a huge schoolyard, above the schoolyard is a dot-bench based on earth and rocks. Diagonally opposite is the execution ground, which exudes a cold and bloody smell. Now on the execution ground, nearly twenty people are kneeling there with their arms cut off, their chests exposed, and their hair is tied with hemp ropes to connect to the beam above.

Some of these people about to be punished have a gray face and are trembling, while others have their eyes shining fiercely and cursed with slander and many slandered words and local curses. However, no matter what their posture or reactions these people are, they cannot shake the mood of those who execute the executioners at all.

As the sunlight gradually moved to the field, a general who was sentenced to death roared: "Catch it!"

The sword light flew away, and blood burst out. More than twenty heads suddenly threw themselves into the air and were pulled onto the crossbar. Under the messy hair and beard, there was still a look of fear during his lifetime. The scene was terrible! And below, blood gushed out from the chest of the headless corpses more than half a foot high, and they poured the stern into a pool of plasma without hesitation! After a long time, the corpse slowly fell into a pool of blood.

"Come on the heads of each battalion!"

As the general shouted, a team of knights rushed forward, suddenly lifted the bamboo gun in his hand, and then pierced the blood-colored ferocious heads on the bamboo gun, and then rushed towards the camps. The pioneers in front were beating the bronze drums and shouting loudly: "If you do not surrender your military orders, you will be killed by the military law!"

When the soldiers in the camp heard the shouts, they all poked their heads out and saw the heads that were still ticking on the bamboo guns, their faces vaguely seemed familiar, and they were shivering and silent as if they were cicadas.

At this time, the atmosphere was also solemn. Two bare-handed men were cut by cow tendons and kneeled under the hall with their arms. Everyone attended the hall, staring at the two of them with their eyes full of resentment, while some showed unbearable expressions, as if they were deeply regretful for the two.

There was a middle-aged man sitting in the hall, unlike others who had armor and only wore a gray cloak. He was the coach of the place. Unlike the rumored tyranny and brave figures of the outside world, Su Jun himself had a long beard and fluttering face, with a straight face, and was majestic and elegant posture, and had a bit of a famous demeanor. But if someone in the battle formation underestimated him for this, he would most likely have to hate the invincible spearhead under the invincible spear!

With such a face, Su Jun's mood was hard to be calm. He stared at the two people tied under the hall, and his eyes were cold and resentful. Seeing his appearance, everyone in the hall was even more afraid to speak out, sitting upright and showing a serious expression.

After a while, Su Jun suddenly sneered, and this sneer alone made people unable to calm down. Especially the two people in the hall couldn't help but shivered, their heads lowered their foreheads and pressed against the ground, and they didn't dare to look up.

"When did you two follow me?"

After sneering, Su Jun slowly spoke in the hall.

When the two of them heard this question, they were a little surprised and thought that the general was about to talk about his old feelings. They felt a little happy in their hearts and said hurriedly: "The lord ran south to Guangling. My brother, who heard that the lord was brave enough to fight, led more than a thousand township parties to the right of Huai to hiding his lord's wings. It has been nearly ten years since then..."

"Ten years have passed, how many decades can life be?"

Hearing the two of them answered, Su Jun stroked his beard and sighed with emotion, with a look of confusion.

When everyone saw Su Jun feeling the old things, they seemed to be lingering in the old feelings, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. However, a young man in the table said quickly: "These two people fled together, contrary to military law. Never let them go lightly, father!"

The speaker was Su Shuo, son of Su Jun. However, as soon as he opened his mouth, Su Jun swept over coldly and said in a deep voice: "Who is your father in the central army? Get down and take off his armor and receive punishment!"

"Lord, Dalang just..."

Han Huang on the other side of the seat opened his mouth and wanted to plead for Su Shuo. However, as soon as he opened his mouth, Su Junli turned his eyes to him again, and his heart was trembling, so he could only shut up embarrassedly.

"In ten years, spring bamboo shoots can grow ten feet long, and children have become heroes. Why do you two follow me for so long? Why are you still worried about not knowing each other?"

When his eyes turned back to the two of them, Su Jun said with emotion: "Did you have been following me for several years? Have you ever been punished for me? Or have I ever lost my virtue to you?"

"The lord is very kind, and the reward and punishment are clear..."

"Since that's the case, why should I leave me?"

When Su Jun heard the two people's answers, he laughed at himself and asked again.

"I, I..."

When the two of them heard this, they couldn't help but speak. Now what is the situation in Liyang? Everyone knows that since this year, the escapees have been repeatedly banned. The two of them are so lucky that they were captured and taken back. Even though they have thought about it, they are not easy to speak directly at this moment.

"Ha, I just say that I treat each other sincerely and push me to others, so that people can think of me and never abandon righteousness. It turns out that this is just my own extravagant hope, and it is out of reach."

When she said this, Su Jun's expression became more gloomy and he looked a little self-deprecating.

However, when the others in the hall heard this, they could not be calm. They stood up in the table and bowed their heads and said, "We are all grateful to the Lord, and we will follow our lives and deaths, and we will never betray them!"

What's more, some people have stepped forward to grab the two of them and said angrily: "These people who are disagreeable in power are great and obey, but they are abandoned by the decline. They are all spoiled by everyone! Even if the military law can survive, it is difficult to tolerate human feelings. It is time to cut off and show them to the public. This is not enough to comfort people's hearts!"

Hearing this, the two men's faces changed drastically, and they kowtowed to the ground and shouted: "Lord, please spare me..."

"Give me your life? All human love and military laws are in the hall. I want to hear it. Why do you want me to spare me?"

"We followed our lord for many years and fought all over the country, but we didn't dare to quit our efforts. Whenever we fought, we were happy and forgot our lives and killed the enemy first. Even if we didn't express our old merits and never talked about our old feelings, we stopped because of our illness and weakness, and only wanted to return home and survive..."

Listening to the sad voices of these two people, Su Jun's eyes were faintly dim. Isn't this what he wanted to say? However, so what?

"Put down and leave a whole body."

He waved his hand and whispered, watching the two men howling and being taken out of the hall by their personal soldiers, but their expressions were quite lazy.
