Chapter 80 The bad of good people
"Dear fellow villagers in Tanzhou City, here are the special envoys of the Tang Dynasty, the general of Xingyun, and the official Lin Feng!" Lin Feng looked around at the dense crowds of people below the audience, raised his hands high, and spoke up to introduce himself first.
Lin Feng? This name is not unfamiliar to most people on the scene. Lin Feng's literary talent has long been famous all over the world. Supermarket, Tang Dynasty's transformation, and Tang Dynasty's talent swing made the whole world know the genius, the genius, the genius. For the people inside and outside Tanzhou City, the news that the Tang Dynasty's special envoy Lin Feng led his troops to help Ma Xi'e, and the news that a group of subordinates attacked twice to change the situation in Tanzhou City had long spread, and it added legendary color to Lin Feng's reputation.
There was some commotion in the crowd, but it soon became quiet and everyone stared at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng pointed to the captive group below and said loudly: "The disputes in Tanzhou, Langzhou, and the people of Da Chu were innocent, but they were in chaos. The soldiers of Langzhou tribes were hard to change their nature. They actually burned, killed, and plundered inside and outside Tanzhou City. Some shameless people took advantage of the chaos to make trouble. Our Tang army and many righteous men in Tanzhou really could not tolerate it, so they drew their swords to help.
The murderer will die, the wounded and the robbers will be punished! Now, our Tang army organizes a public trial meeting, and the life and death of these prisoners in the audience will be determined by the crimes they have committed! Every prisoner, if someone now testifies that he has killed someone, he will be killed on the spot; if no one testifies, tied to the top of the pole, and then displayed for a day, he will be held in prison!"
This is another new thing. Since ancient times, the people of Tanzhou City have only heard of and met the scenes of asking for the death of the afternoon and the autumn after three o'clock in the afternoon, and when have they heard of the public trial meeting? The people in the audience were in confusion and involuntarily rushing towards each other, and their bodies couldn't help but crowded towards the front.
After Lin Feng finished speaking, he pointed his hand and signaled to take the nearest prisoner from the audience up. One of the two soldiers forced the prisoner to kneel down with a knife, and the other grabbed the prisoner's hair, raised his head high, and looked towards the audience.
Lin Feng asked loudly: "Is there anyone who identified this person?"
There was a silence in the audience, and no one spoke. Lin Feng guessed that half a minute had passed, and immediately waved his hand, and the two soldiers pulled the prisoner who was obviously relieved and tied it to a wooden pole.
The second prisoner was not so lucky. As soon as he was taken to the stage, a man excitedly identified this person as having killed his parents, wife and children in his family. Lin Feng didn't talk nonsense, and slashed his hands down. The soldier who was warding the captives swung his sword and beheaded with one sword.
With a smooth beginning, the trial below progressed quickly, and soon nine prisoners were beheaded, and only two were tied to the heads.
After the tenth prisoner was recognized, a man who came out to testify suddenly knelt on the ground, knocked his head hard, and said loudly: "Mr. Lin, can you please kill this enemy with a lie?"
Lin Feng was stunned, pondered for a moment, and nodded in agreement.
The man ran up to the platform, took the big knife handed over by the soldier, and roared at the sky: "Sister Xiang, Baoer, I'll avenge you with my own hands!"
After shouting, the man who was already in tears held the knife in both hands, used all his strength to chop the knife down, and cut off the captain's head neatly! The moment the blood sprayed, the man seemed to have used up all his strength. He threw the knife and threw the man at Lin Feng's feet and cried bitterly: "Thank you, Lord Lin, for your fulfillment!"
"Okay, the courage is commendable!" Lin Feng helped the man up with both hands, patted him on the shoulder, leaned down and picked up the knife, handed it to the man, and said softly, "Men, you should use the knife in your hand to protect your family! This knife is for you to remember!"
The man held the knife in both hands, knocked another head, and staggered off the stage.
There is a car in front and a way behind. Since then, the scene of killing thieves with their own hands has begun to continue to happen. Without exception, these people were finally given a steel knife by Lin Feng.
In the audience, Tuoba Heng was about to turn around and walk away when a man who was just squeezed over next to him touched his arm and said mysteriously: "Old sir, do you know? Everyone is saying that if our Da Chu can surrender directly to the Tang Dynasty, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has agreed to waive all the people's three years of rent! Our Da Chu people will not have to suffer so many crimes anymore!"
Tuoba Heng glanced at the man who had turned around and squeezed away, and stopped immediately, staring at Lin Feng with a righteous face on the stage. A shock from the depths of his heart spread throughout his heart:
Lin Feng has successfully established the reputation of the righteous army of the Tang Dynasty with the help of this unique public trial. Now he has begun to send people to spread the rumors that he surrendered to the Tang Dynasty and was exempted from rent for three years. Could it be that the Tang Dynasty has other plans?
At this time, as more and more heads were piled up on the stage, blood began to seep through the cracks of the wooden blocks and ticked down the stage. The crowd below gradually woke up from the initial craziness. Many people had lowered their heads and dared not look at the bloody stage. Some people began to withdraw from the crowd sporadically and far away.
Lin Feng noticed this depressing atmosphere and reached out to stop the soldier who was escorting a captive to the stage. He suddenly shouted loudly: "Everyone present is the victim of this Tanzhou catastrophe! Why did you become victims? Have you ever thought about it? That's because you are all good people! But do you know what the biggest disadvantage of a good person is? "
When Lin Feng stopped and looked around, Tuoba Heng also closed his suspicious eyes and began to lower his head and think.
"The biggest disadvantage of good people is that they dare not fight with bad people! Because you are afraid of them, they dare not fight with them! Many bad things are actually done by you good people tolerate, sit down, and even acquiesce!" Lin Feng continued on the stage, pointing his hand at the prisoners below the stage, and speaking in a more emphasis.
"What are these people? They do everything evil, do whatever they want, and kill good bad people! It is natural to punish these people! In this way, I saw that some of you watched for a while and didn't dare to watch it anymore. I think I must think that this scene is too bloody and too cruel!
Do you know? As a good person, the most hopeless problem is that you think you are good people alone, and you only sigh when you encounter something, and lack the fierce aura to protect yourself. However, will these bad people let you go and your family because you are a good person?! Ask your family who is already in heaven, ask about the scars on your body and the pain in your heart!”
Lin Feng's words were sharp and he changed the famous discussion of the three evils of good people by the madman Li Ao in his later generations, and stabbed the hearts of the people below the stage like a sharp sword.
Tuoba Heng was in a state of excitement for a moment, and he was immediately obsessed with it!
He is known for his integrity among the 18 bachelors of the Tiance Prefecture, but he is the one who encounters the most daily walls. He has never stopped any bad things. Now, the Chu State is even on the verge of destroying the country. Is it really because he is too good to be a good person? Who is the good person mentioned by Lin Feng? Who is the person who is mad, Ma Xifan, Ma Xiguang, and Ma Xi'e who cares about human life, is he absent from people's livelihood, and ignores people's livelihood? Are the bad persons Lin Feng refers to?
After stinging these people with words, Lin Feng waved his hand and shouted, "The trial continues!" After that, Lin Feng got off the stage, walked towards the Tanzhou soldiers next to him, and raised his hand to greet Yang Di, who was standing in front of the team.
When Yang Di saw Lin Feng, he immediately jumped off his horse and said embarrassedly: "Mr. Lin, I'm really sorry! The three of us were busy all morning and found more than ten commanders who knew each other, and asked them to recruit less than a thousand soldiers. However, many soldiers had burned their uniforms and said that they would never want to join the army again!"
Lin Feng laughed and said, "They don't want to join the army because the superiors of Tanzhou City did not give them the glory and dignity they wanted! You told every brother who was willing to come back that as long as you follow me, Lin one day, I will make sure that each of them will live a prosperous life and have dignity, and will definitely lead them to seize the glory that every soldier should have!"
Yang Di bowed excitedly to thank him.
Lin Feng grabbed Yang Di's hand and whispered a few instructions in his ear. Yang Di nodded repeatedly and called the Tanzhou soldiers behind him to set out to do business.
