Chen Xu's actions made both parties commotion.

Chen Hu was worried about Chen Xu's safety, broke free from Chen Qing and Li Guo, and raised his spear to kill.

The officers and soldiers were also in a commotion, and when the general saw this, a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

Now that Chen Xu is seriously injured and close at hand, as long as he picks up his weapon, a charge can kill Chen Xu.

"Since you're looking for death, you can't blame me!"

Originally, he wanted to drag the reinforcements over, but he knew that Chen Xu had a high prestige in the eyes of the officers and soldiers, and if he was allowed to continue to pretend to be pitiful and shake the morale of the army here, I was afraid that the officers and soldiers would collapse without a fight.

The two of them were only four meters away now, and with a loud shout, this general was about to step forward to kill Chen Xu with a weapon.

Seeing this, the people behind Chen Xu were stunned and wanted to come to the rescue, but it was too late.

"Poof!"

The weapon stabbed into the body, and blood spurted out.

The officers and soldiers looked at the weapon that pierced their bodies, and their faces were full of incredulity. He turned his head with great difficulty, and saw his lieutenant's face full of hideousness.

Before he had time to think about it, the adjutant suddenly pulled out his weapon, and the general's body spun in the air for half a circle before he fell down unwillingly.

The adjutant came to Chen Xu, protected him behind him, and said sharply to the officers and soldiers: "Brothers, most of us used to be homeless refugees, if it weren't for General Chen's love and recruitment of us into the army, we might have starved to death long ago!" ”

"The general led us to fight, and we won every battle, and we never coveted the spoils, rewards, and pensions, so that we could support our families. If there were no generals, how many people would have survived in my family? ”

"Now that the general has been framed by traitors and tortured, if we can't repay the favor and rescue the general from Puyang, what face will I have to live in the world?"

The adjutant was furious, and his face turned red.

Originally, he was only a very small general in the rebel army, and after the soldier Cao Pengshi removed many people from his positions in the army, his cronies were installed in important places, and the person who was killed by this adjutant just now was one of them.

However, in order to appease the morale of the army, Bing Cao Pengshi still promoted some officers and soldiers as adjutants, and this adjutant was one of the lucky ones.

He once robbed the camp of the Yellow Turban Army under Chen Hu's tent. In Dong'a, he was also selected to be one of the 500 officers and soldiers of the Covenant War. In that war, he had seen Chen Xu's demeanor of summoning the god of thunder, and he admired his own master general.

He followed Chen Xu to fight for the Yellow Turban, made a lot of contributions, and received a lot of rewards to support his mother and young son at home. It can be said that without Chen Xu, even if he could survive, his mother and young son would have starved to death.

Therefore, when he saw that the general was about to kill Chen Xu just now, he killed him later.

When the rest of the officers and soldiers heard this, they no longer hesitated, and many of them directly took weapons and killed the private soldiers of the powerful people.

The private soldiers of the powerful people, although they were well armed, had never been on the battlefield. In addition, there are only more than 100 people, how can they be the opponents of the officers and soldiers? Within a few moments, they had been killed by the officers and soldiers and scattered in all directions.

Seeing this, Chen Xu was overjoyed, and hurriedly said to the children of Chenjia Village who were stunned behind: "Block the city gate, don't let go of a powerful private soldier." ”

The children of Chenjia Village, who were overwhelmed by a series of circumstances, only reacted when they heard Chen Xu's words, and shouted to kill Haoqiang's private soldiers.

Haoqiang's private soldiers were originally gathered together, and the clothes and armor on their bodies were also varied, which was very recognizable. In the era of cold weapons, an army without a commander and without morale was nothing more than a lamb to the slaughter.

A quarter of an hour later, all the powerful private soldiers were killed, and many officers and soldiers were now confused.

When they first saw Chen Xu's appearance, they couldn't help but feel sympathy and anger in their hearts, coupled with the sudden defection of the adjutant, many people subconsciously followed everyone and killed Haoqiang's private soldiers.

Now that I come back to my senses, I realize that this is a rebellion, and everyone is a little overwhelmed in their hearts.

The power of the Han Dynasty is inviolable, and no one wants to be a thief unless it is forced to do so.

The adjutant also came to his senses at this time, and thought that because of his impulsiveness, he had affected many officers and soldiers, and he suddenly felt ashamed.

He walked up to Chen Xu, gave Chen Xu a big salute, and said, "If there is no general, my family may still be a homeless person." Although I have done such a big thing today, I still have no regrets in my heart, I just feel sorry for these brothers behind me. ”

After speaking, he held a sharp blade, drew his sword in his hand, and said to the officers and soldiers in front of him: "Brothers, General Chen is a human being, and we all know it. He is jealous and hateful, sympathetic to the soldiers, and loves the people, how could he collude with the Yellow Turban Army? ”

"Since the general was wronged, is it at fault for me to save the general?"

The soldiers replied sparsely at first, and then their voices grew louder and louder, and they all shouted: "I am not wrong!" ”

The adjutant raised his hands, pressed them down, and then said, "Although we have a clear conscience, we have also caused a catastrophe. Most of our families have family ties, so we can't follow the general to leave Puyang. ”

"In order not to affect the children and the elderly in your family, someone must always stand up and take responsibility for this matter."

Chen Xu looked at this talkative adjutant, and was actually a little distracted for a while. He didn't expect that there would be such a character under his account before.

"Here, please allow me to ask once which people are waiting for no one in their homes, no worries, and please raise your hand."

After the adjutant finished speaking, he saw more than fifty people raise their hands.

The adjutant pointed to these people and asked them to come out of the ranks, and then said: "The matter has come to this point, and you have no worries at home, I wonder if you are willing to follow the general and leave Puyang?" ”

More than 50 people were silent for a long time, knowing that there was no way out now, and all of them said loudly: "I am willing!" ”

Hearing everyone's affirmative answers, the adjutant had a smile on his face, he held a sword in his hand, and continued to say to the rest of the officers and soldiers: "The adjutant of the North Gate and more than 50 of his subordinates colluded with Chen Xu to kill the generals of the North Gate and the powerful private soldiers, and were hacked to death by Er and others. ”

With that, he stabbed his body with a sword, and then slowly fell to the ground, still with a smile on his face.

Originally, when he heard the words of this adjutant, Chen Xu felt a little bad. He did not expect that this adjutant was so strong, and in order not to implicate the families of these officers and soldiers, he was willing to take responsibility for this rebellion.

All the powerful private soldiers of the North Gate were killed, and if these officers and soldiers were unanimous, the responsibility would be put on this adjutant and the more than 50 soldiers who had no family involvement.

With this adjutant as a substitute for the dead ghost, these officers and soldiers with families can completely take his corpse and clear their names for themselves and others.

Although the government has some suspicions, but because there is no evidence, and the law does not hold the public accountable, there will be no danger to these hundreds of people who remain. Otherwise, the rest of the officers and soldiers in the county will probably mutiny.

On the contrary, if he didn't do this, he would encourage everyone to follow Chen Xu and leave Puyang. While these officers and soldiers will be able to survive, their families will be implicated.

Seeing the adjutant commit suicide, everyone was shocked.

Chen Xu pounced on him, his eyes were full of tears, and he shouted loudly: "Why are you like this!" How so! ”

Chen Hu and others also came over, their faces full of respect. Knowing kindness, not afraid of life and death, who said that there are no heroes between the reckless?

When the officers and men suddenly saw the adjutant commit suicide, they were all a little confused and puzzled at first. When everyone came back to their senses, they knew what the adjutant meant. All of a sudden, everyone began to cry.

Chen Xu covered the adjutant's wound, and the blood was still flowing out in large streams, and now his heart was full of self-blame and guilt.

To tell the truth, when he was the leader of the rebels, he did not give these people many favors. In his eyes, he just did something he thought he should do.

Even when he stepped forward alone, he did not have a trace of hypocrisy, in order to win the sympathy of the officers and soldiers. He didn't expect that this adjutant would sacrifice his life for the sake of other officers and soldiers.

Looking at a living life, he respected and loved himself, but finally died in front of him in this way, Chen Xu's heart was mixed.

The tears in his eyes couldn't help but flow, Chen Xu choked up and said, "Is it worth it for you to do this?" Is it worth it? ”

Seeing the true feelings of the general he respected, the adjutant's heart was filled with joy. He took a strong breath and said intermittently: "The general does not live up to me, I do not live up to the general!" ”

As he finished speaking, his pupils began to dilate, and blood flowed from his mouth.

Wiping the tears on his face, Chen Xu knew that the adjutant was about to die, and hurriedly asked: "What else do you want, tell me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help you realize it!" ”

Hearing this, the adjutant's dilating pupils retracted, and his eyes lit up. He looked in the direction of Puyang City and shook his head laboriously, his eyes full of guilt and affection.

Eventually, he didn't say anything, opening his mouth and then closing his eyes forever.

From his harmonica, Chen Xu knew what he wanted to express - to live up to the general!
