C2301 Madness

Anyone with a brain would not believe Li Yuangu's words. After all, the man was on the run. It was not like he had lived enough. Why would he charge into Li Yuangu's gun?

Therefore, even though the soldier tried his best to explain, the surrounding people still did not believe him. Even his companion was the same. Of course, his companions did not expose him, seeing that they were his companions. However, the other people around him weren't that easy to talk to.

"You liar, you won't admit it even after killing someone!"

"Executioner, what's the difference between you and those Fengjue Country beasts?"

"They were killed by the heavens, and those who sent them to fight the Fengjue Country didn't have the ability to do so. But now, they actually killed unarmed people like us."

The surrounding people were already very angry because of this person's murder. But now, the other party actually refused to admit it, and even said that he wanted to commit suicide. Was he treating them like idiots?

Therefore, the surrounding people became even angrier, and their physical contact with each other increased even more.

As for the companions of the personal guards, although they were cursing in their hearts that this person was brainless, they were still grasshoppers on a rope. Hence, they could not sit idly by and help this person.

In this way, the conflict between the two sides would become even more intense. Liu Feng's trusted aide had been fanning the flames. He would attack this one, and then attack that one, causing the flames in the hearts of both sides to surge continuously.

Li Yuangu was squeezed into the crowd. He looked at everything with anger and anxiety, but there was nothing he could do.

He really wanted to leave this place now, but because his people were having physical contact with the civilians. Although there were no fewer people, the anger in their hearts was not small. And because of this, the civilians naturally would not be willing to give way anymore. It also became impossible for him to leave this place as soon as possible.

While he was cursing the brainless personal soldier in his heart, Li Yuangu was very anxious in his heart. The people from the Fengjue Country behind him could arrive at any time, but once they caught up to him... Especially after knowing his identity. Those people from the Fengjue Country would never let him go.

Therefore, he desperately wanted to leave this place. However... The current chaos had turned his thoughts into bubbles. It was useless no matter how anxious he was. After all, the personal guards that he had brought with him... The number of soldiers couldn't be compared to the people around him. Plus... The civilians were all very angry and surrounded them. They didn't give them a chance to leave.

If this had happened during normal times, Li Yuangu would have calmly told both sides to stop for now. After that, he would try his best to explain, but he could resolve the crisis in front of him.

However, it was different now. They were still in danger. The army of the Fengjue Country could catch up at any time. He was extremely afraid and nervous. Naturally, he didn't have the patience to explain to these people. He couldn't calm down and think about this matter. Right now, he only wanted to leave this place as soon as possible and escape from the city.

Therefore, under such circumstances, Li Yuangu made a ridiculous decision. He furiously shouted at the crowd, "If anyone tries to stop me, I will kill them!"

However, although his voice was loud, the scene was too chaotic. The noise was even louder, so his voice didn't travel far. Even the civilians who were close to him heard his words. They didn't take him seriously, nor did they stop what they were doing. At this moment, they were very excited. It wasn't something that could calm them down with just a few words.

Furthermore, Liu Feng's trusted aides were also stirring up trouble, stimulating their nerves and preventing them from calming down.

When he saw that no one was listening to him, Li Yuangu was infuriated. He didn't want to waste any more time here. And so... He said to the guards, "Whoever dares to block my way again, kill him!"

Li Yuangu was giving an order in anger. Of course, this was also because of the pressure brought by the Fengjue Country. That was why he gave such an absurd order.

As for Li Yuangu's guards, they had long been taken care of by the surrounding civilians. They had caused a lot of trouble. During the process of physical contact, because they could not use weapons, the situation had worsened. Therefore, these personal guards were unable to gain any advantage. On the contrary, they had suffered a great loss. Some of them even had a broken smile on their faces. Some of them were bleeding while some of their clothes were torn into pieces. They were in a sorry state.

Therefore, these personal guards were infuriated. Now that they heard what Li Yuangu said, they did not even need to think about it. They directly used the weapons in their hands to attack the surrounding people. They had been waiting for this moment for a long time. Thus... When they received the order, they didn't think about whether it was reasonable or not. Would it let them out of danger?

Li Yuangu's personal guards only wanted to teach these poor civilians a lesson.

The surrounding civilians did not have weapons in their hands. They did not have armor on them, so when Li Yuangu's personal guards attacked, immediately, many of them fell to the ground, injured. Painful cries began to appear one after another. And more and more.

If it was during normal times, they would have been attacked by the soldiers. The first thing they thought of was definitely not resistance, but to kneel and beg for mercy. After all, most of them were honest farmers. He had never thought of going against the Imperial Court. These soldiers... However, if they were to go against the Imperial Court, they would be killed. These civilians did not have the guts to do so. They only wanted to live an honest life.

However, today was different. They had already been subjected to a series of physical contact. It was too exciting. The respect they usually had for the Imperial Court's soldiers... They had long forgotten about it. At this moment, there was no fear in their hearts. The screams of those who were injured seemed to agitate their sensitive nerves.

These people were not afraid. Instead, they became even more excited and excited.

"Soldiers are using blades, they want to kill us! Those who don't want to die, fight with them! " Liu Feng's trusted aide roared once again.

Those civilians were already in a state of excitement. Now that they heard Liu Feng's trusted aide's words, all of them immediately rushed towards Li Yuangu's family members. In the face of those sharp blades, they did not feel afraid. They only felt angry. They wanted to tear these people who were ready to slaughter them to pieces!

Although Li Yuangu's personal guards had weapons in their hands, and... Their bodies were also very strong. Ordinary civilians were not their match at all. However, they had too few people. Therefore, even with weapons in hand, in a very short period of time... They were beaten to the ground by the crowd. Some people even snatched weapons from their hands. Kill them.

Li Yuangu was really scared when he saw this scene. He thought that... He wanted to use his weapon to kill a few people and warn the others so that they could calm down. It would make them feel scared, and it would serve as a warning to others. The others would naturally make way for them.1

However, he never expected that not only would his actions not have the desired effect. It even caused the surrounding people to become even more furious. Although... They had indeed killed a few people with their weapons. However... There were too many people around. His personal guards... Even if they had weapons in their hands, even if they were agile, they were quickly knocked down to the ground. Struggling bitterly, it seemed like they would not be able to hold on for much longer.

Li Yuangu was naturally afraid when he saw this scene. He knew that it was because of his stupid command. It had caused the situation to go out of control. Now, even if the Emperor came personally, there was no way for these people to calm down. After he lost the protection of his personal guards, he would definitely end up in a very miserable state. It was obvious without thinking. These people would never let him go.

Hence, Li Yuangu hurriedly shouted to the escaping soldiers who were mixed in the crowd, "I, Minister of War, Li Yuangu. All of the soldiers listen up and immediately calm down the chaos here. If we stop these people, we will reward them handsomely!"

Li Yuangu's identity was still a great deterrent to many soldiers. After all, this was their leader, their greatest leader. They would naturally respect him.

However, the surrounding chaos was also seen by the soldiers. Therefore, even if they respected Li Yuangu's identity in their hearts. They did not dare to make any reckless moves. They all knew that... These civilians had gone crazy, even if they were involved in it. There was no way for them to calm down unless they continued to slaughter them.

However, these civilians were too many. Their numbers were at a disadvantage, so they did not have much confidence.

However, there would always be brave men under great rewards. Although Li Yuangu did not say what great rewards were, with Li Yuangu's identity as Minister of War, as long as they saved him now, the rewards in the future would not be small.

Furthermore, if he could leave a good impression on his greatest leader, or even save his life, wouldn't his future career be smooth-sailing?

Therefore, after hearing Li Yuangu's words, many soldiers were still tempted. Some soldiers immediately became active and began to take out their weapons, slashing at the civilians around them.

In fact, it was just as they had thought. At this moment, the civilians... The civilians had completely fallen into madness. Killing soldiers was something they did not even dare to think about. Now that they had done it, it was even more stimulating. Thus, there were some soldiers who joined in, but they did not make them feel afraid. Instead, they became even crazier.
