Dai Yun frowned and immediately followed his subordinates out of the camp. When he arrived at the viewing platform above the camp, he discovered that the situation was a bit strange. Below the platform was a dense mass of people. Although these people didn't have any armor or swords in their hands, but with so many people present, it was still terrifying.
The only thing that made Dai Yun feel comfortable was that these people were not Jiangdong's soldiers.
"What's going on?" Dai Yun asked the thousand-man general with a gloomy face.
"Reporting to the General, I don't know why, but the people of Jiangdong suddenly surrounded us. Their words were fierce, their faces were full of anger, and their mouths were full of curses. Although they didn't have any swords in their hands, they still had weapons. They wanted to push our camp, so I took the initiative to use bows and arrows to force them back." The thousand-man general reported to Dai Yun.
"Bows and arrows?" Dai Yun's eyes widened. He immediately asked. "Were there any heavy casualties?" He came to Jiangdong and did not do anything to the people. What was his purpose? Wasn't it to win the hearts of the people of Jiangdong? If he lost the hearts of the people of Jiangdong, not only would it take a lot of effort to recover Jiangdong, but it would also be useless without the hearts of the people of Jiangdong.
"Not really!" The General of a Thousand on the side shook his head. He wasn't a fool. Although the arrow was meant as a warning, he made his subordinates pull the bow high and shoot it out. It was just a warning, but it actually injured several people.
"How did they come here?" Dai Yun looked at the direction where these people came from. They clearly came from the direction of Jianye. This was the naval camp. If you want to go to Jianye's naval camp, you have to go through Jianye city. Is there no one guarding Jianye city? Dai Yun could not help but look at Huang Gai and his men behind him. Although he was puzzled, now was not the time to think about it. He had to quickly deal with the people outside the camp.
"That's good!" Dai Yun nodded. "Let's go. Follow me to question them!"
The thousand-man general nodded.
"Get justice!"
"A life for a life!"
"Drive out the Yangzhou army." Tens of thousands of people were shouting.
"Everyone, quiet down, quiet down!" The thousand-man general shouted at the Great God on the scene, but no matter how loud his voice was, it couldn't compare to the shouts of tens of thousands of people.
"Pass my order, raise your bows!" Dai Yun shouted to his subordinates.
"Yes!" Very quickly, a thousand-man team was ready, and the bows in their hands were already spinning.
"People in front of you, twenty steps, shoot! Left and right, have the drum team beat the drums. "Dai Yun issued one order after another. The Yangzhou New Army under him was worthy of being called elites. They quickly carried out the orders. The war drums were beaten and the war bows were drawn.
"Shoot!" The officer gave the order, and countless arrows were shot out and fell on the ground.
With this move, the commoners were stunned for a moment. The huge scene actually quieted down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that you all have some impression of me. I was fortunate to have received the blessing of His Highness the King Of Shu. That's why I have my current achievements. I have become the general of the Yangzhou New Army." Dai Yun said to the commoners below.
"We know you. You are Yangzhou's General Dai Yun." Some people had naturally seen Dai Yun before. When these commoners had sent the cattle and sheep, Dai Yun had thanked them one by one. Their impression of Dai Yun was that he was a genial general.
"Isn't this Master Qiao from the Qiao Family Village? Old man, why are you here? Are you trying to cause trouble? " Dai Yun saw the person who had spoken. It was Li Zheng from the Qiao Family Village who had sent the fish to the Yangzhou New Army. Previously, Dai Yun had thought that this old man was a reasonable person. He hadn't thought that he would be among the commoners here.
"General Dai, I am not here to cause trouble. I am here to seek justice." This Master Qiao was old, but his heart was not old. He was actually holding a rolling pin in his hand.
"We are here to seek justice." A group of people behind him shouted.
"Seek justice?" Dai Yun frowned and asked Old Man Qiao.
"Did my subordinates disturb the commoners?" Dai Yun's face was a bit gloomy. He looked at the thousand men guarding the gate and asked, "Zhang De, did your people disturb the commoners nearby?" Dai Yun had given his subordinates an order that they were not to leave the camp without a military order. Everyone was training. The only ones who could leave were Zhang De's subordinates.
"General, I am innocent! Other than the five hundred people guarding the gate, there are another five hundred people who are either training or resting. No one has left the camp. How could they disturb the commoners nearby? " Zhang De looked at Dai Yun with a wronged expression. The degree of rioting was almost comparable to the rioters outside Xinye City. If Zhang De's people had disturbed the commoners, he would not be able to bear the consequences. He might even be executed. But fortunately, it was not his people who had disturbed the commoners.
"Not your people? Then who is it? "Dai Yun asked Zhang De." Did anyone else leave the camp? " If one wanted to leave the camp, they had to walk beside Zhang De. Therefore, Zhang De knew the people who left the camp the best.
"Oh right, Chen Qian also went out!" Zhang De said to Dai Yun. "Chen Qian said that he was following your orders." Zhang De said to Dai Yun.
Only then did Dai Yun realize that Chen Qian Jiang had indeed listened to his orders. "Return the livestock to the commoners?" Dai Yun frowned.
"General, we don't dare to take back your livestock! How are they here to return cows and goats? They're here to kill us! "Old Master Qiao immediately became agitated when he heard Dai Yun's words.
"A few of our villages were slaughtered when your people were returning those cows and sheep. It was so tragic, not even a blade of grass was left!" Hearing Dai Yun's words, Old Man Qiao immediately cried out.
"Slaughtered villages? Not even a blade of grass was left? Impossible! "Dai Yun's first reaction was that it was impossible. How could his people slaughter a village?
"How is that not possible? We gave you cows and sheep, and you didn't want them. Why did you have to snatch them? In our village, other than me and my children, everyone else is gone. Gone!" The more the man spoke, the more agitated he became. This man was none other than Xiaoyi and his father.
When Xiaoyi saw her father crying, she started crying as well.
"Murderer, murderer!" The commoners were filled with righteous indignation. "A life for a life!"
"En?" Dai Yun was completely gloomy. "Zhang De, go and bring Chen Qian here. No! Tie him up! "
