Chapter 269 Let Da Zangjing Choose
Hayatozuo was the first to run up to check the identities of the two, because what he was most afraid of was that these two were ronin whom he personally recruited a few days ago.

But soon, Hayato let out a sigh of relief.

"The two are not the newly recruited ronin." Hayato turned his head and called everyone to his side, and ordered: "Come and see whose retainer it is."

But after everyone made a distinction, they shook their heads one after another.So now there is only one possibility left, these two people were originally members of Kang Gang's direct troops in the city.Everyone looked at the Lord in unison, but Kang Gang nodded with puzzlement and hatred on his face.

Seeing this, Youbingwei hurriedly asked Bao'er: "How about the loss of the gunpowder depot?"

"I don't know." Bao'er shook his head, and said again: "I went to wait outside the city gate by myself after seeing the explosion of the gunpowder magazine, and it turned out..." Bao'er used both hands to hate the two traitors. Pointing to the two of them with hatred, he said, "I just waited for these two outside the city gate."

Hyogo Assistant looked at the faces of the two traitors, and suddenly said: "The old man has some impressions of the two. They were originally tenant farmers who escaped from Ertongmu's house a few years ago. The Lord took them in because of the pity of their family. Incorporating them into the Ashigaru team, I never imagined that these two people would dare to avenge their kindness so quickly!"

Hyogosuke did not remember wrongly, the two brothers were indeed fleeing farmers who took their whole family away from Ertsuki's house a few years ago.And it has been two years since the two joined the Ashgaru team in Kasuga City.The reason why they can do such a rebellious thing today is entirely because they are intimidated by the military might of Da Zangjing Takatora, and they are worried that their family will be destroyed with Kasuga Yasuna and Kasuga Castle.

The two of them have been working on the protection of the gunpowder depot these days, and of course they know that gunpowder can explode.Just tonight, the two of them finally made up their minds to defect, but the two of them were originally fleeing farmers, and they were afraid that they would be recognized by Ertongmu's family after they escaped to Dazangjing and they would chop them off.

Don't look at the fact that the two people usually have different characters, but the basics are clear.So when the two decided to "make meritorious deeds" first and defected to Dazangjing, the two hit it off and decided to blow up the powder depot in Kasuga City first, and took the opportunity to attract the attention of the whole city.While waiting for everyone to rush to the gunpowder depot for rescue, he secretly opened the gate of Kasuga City and led the Ozangjing family's army into the city.

In this way, the feat of opening the city would naturally fall into the hands of his two brothers, presumably it would not be a problem to be promoted to a mid-level samurai with this feat.

It's a pity that Bao'er also thought of what they thought of for them.As Bao'er said, he didn't check the damage immediately after the explosion, but waited alone outside the gate of Spring City.And the moment the two brothers who thought they had succeeded quietly pushed open the city gate, they saw the Juggernaut who was grinning at their brother...

Soon, the messengers rushed all the way to the Tianshou Pavilion with the calculated losses, and reported to Kang Ganghui:

"Report! The gunpowder depot in the city exploded. Except for the 5 barrels of gunpowder forgotten by the villagers in the school yard, all the more than 30 barrels of gunpowder in the depot were destroyed!"

"Teng!"

All the retainers jumped up at this moment.

"What? There are only 5 barrels left?"

"You should say 'Fortunately, there are still 5 barrels that survived the disaster'." Bao'er comforted everyone and said, "Save some for tomorrow, at least it can last for a day."

"But what about the day after tomorrow?" a retainer couldn't help asking.

"It's simple, as long as Dazangjing Gaohu is killed tomorrow, won't there be no day after tomorrow?"

When everyone heard Bao'er's words, they all felt that what he said was really reasonable, but if it is reasonable, it makes sense, how are they going to kill Gao Hu?However, these are not things they should consider now.Because what is urgently needed now is how to appease everyone in the city, including both the soldiers and the people in the city.

Of course, they must be deterred, and before the flames of rebellion are ignited in their hearts, they must be quickly and mercilessly extinguished.

"What? No one wants to be a bad guy?"

The job of appeasement had been taken over by Matabei and a few other retainers, but the job of punishing the two traitors and their families was lingering.

"Do you know? If their plan just now succeeded, then your family members will be executed tonight."

Bao'er looked left and right, and saw that these guys were still unwilling to make a statement, so he decided to let him take the role of this bad guy to the end.

So, two quarters of an hour later...

A few women and children who were still making meals for the soldiers at noon, and two or three old people who were still filling gunpowder into small bamboo tubes on the school grounds during the day, stood at the spring day with their hands tied behind their backs. outside the walls of the city.And everyone in Chunri City gathered around the outer city, their eyes were either full of puzzlement, resentment, or unbearable looking at the men, women, old and young outside the city.

"I beg you, Lord Juggernaut, please spare our family! Please!"

But Baoer turned a deaf ear to the pleas of the two traitors.Standing on the city wall, holding the two traitors' buns with both hands, he shouted loudly with his internal strength: "Since someone wants to sell Kasuga City in exchange for a high-ranking official and generous salary from Dazangjing, why don't we give them a family?" If anyone has a chance, let me test whether Ozangjing Takatora has a heart of kindness to those who surrender—the iron cannon is ready to... open fire!"

After a burst of "bang bang" gunshots, the scene that everyone expected did not appear.The bullets from the iron cannon just hit the feet of the traitor's family members outside the city.Threatened by guns and bullets, the family's survival instinct forced them to run towards Dazangjing Takahu's army.

"Run! Run!" The two traitors with their hair tied in a bun shouted to their families.

On the city wall, the new recruits who were executioners were holding iron cannons. Whenever the family members of the traitors ran a little slower, they would shoot without hesitation.But their guns were not aimed at people, they just let the bullets skip over those people's heads.When these people heard the "swish" sound when the bullets passed by above their heads, they had to speed up their pace again and ran towards the local army formation.

"Guess, will the Ozangjing family's army accept them, or will they..."

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Before Bao'er finished speaking, Dazangjing's army answered the question for Bao'er-they had no mercy.The whole family of the two traitors fell in a pool of blood after a burst of gunfire from the enemy.

Bao'er didn't speak any more, just let go of the two traitors in his hands, and opened his arms in a look of "you see, that's it".The crowd of onlookers immediately understood Bao'er's intentions, and believed that the Dazangjing family didn't need them to surrender, they just wanted them all to die.Even if this "fact" is just a fact created by the "cooperation" between Bao'er and Dazangjing Takahu.

"As for you two..."

Bao'er looked down at the two traitors who were snotting and crying, beating their chests and stamping their feet, and unceremoniously kicked them from the city wall into the moat below the city.Then, Bao'er threw down two samurai swords and told them: "The next thing, you two decide for yourself!"

And after the two picked up the weapon that Bao'er dropped, they neither came to find Bao'er to fight for their lives, nor rushed to Da Zangjing's army to avenge their families.Holding weapons, the two walked towards their family members who had already died in the random gunfire, step by step, like walking corpses without souls.

This kind of scene is indeed very miserable. Many people are still working with the families of the two traitors during the day, but now they can only watch that family die in the distance.Many people who couldn't bear it lowered their heads one after another, unable to bear to watch another scene of tragedy in the world.

But Bao'er yelled at them: "Raise your heads! Remember, if those two traitors succeeded just now, it will only be you and your family members who will be shot to death now! So, Put away your worthless sympathy, and engrave all of this fiercely in your hearts! We must live to the end in this war!"

"Live! To! Last! Last!"

The people who originally had unbearable expressions on their faces became extremely determined at this moment.Yes, the reason why they entered Spring City was to avoid the flames of war and let themselves and their families survive to the end.But the appearance of traitors is likely to make their efforts come to naught, so...

"The traitor must die!"

"Live to the end!"

And above the wilderness, the two traitors who had already come to the dead body of their relatives suddenly heard a burst of shouts from Chunri City.When they heard what the people were shouting clearly, they pulled out the long knife that Bao'er threw at them, and wiped it towards their own necks.

However, when the blades grazed their skins, they did not take their lives. They only felt the pain in their necks from being stabbed by the knife. Only then did they realize that the knives of Bao'er and the others were just two knives. Bamboo fakes...

"what!"

Filled with remorse, the two chose to use a bamboo knife to cut their stomachs, but how could the blunt bamboo knife take their lives so easily?So the two lay down next to the dead bodies of their family members, howling in pain, until the dawn, the two were finally freed...
