Chapter 313 - 180: Long live Suo Lun! Zhi Ning spurts blood!_2
Suo Lun stood on the balcony of the castle, looking down at the four thousand rebel prisoners on the parade ground.
He would soon lead the City Defense Army south to Tianlang Pass, and coordinate a pincer attack on Tianlang Pass with Yan Yan’s Army. Leaving these four thousand rebel prisoners in the rear was a liability rather than an asset; should they cause chaos, it would spell trouble.
So the simplest solution was to wipe them out cleanly.
Suo Lun did indeed have that impulse, but his rationality quickly suppressed it. These were, after all, four thousand living people, and moreover, they were his own subjects. They were not bad people, nor did they harbor intentions to betray the Suo; they were simply fighting to earn their bread.
Suo Lun looked at these rebel prisoners and said indifferently, "I am Suo Lun! Count Tianshui, City Lord of Tianshui City, also the lord whom you sought to rebel against."
Instantly, all the prisoners looked towards Suo Lun with uneasiness, their eyes filled with terror. Clad only in their thin clothes, they shivered even more in the cold.
Not only the rebel prisoners, but the soldiers of the City Defense Army also looked towards him; they too were very concerned about their fate.
"All the rebels should be executed," Suo Lun stated bluntly.
The four thousand rebel prisoners trembled with fear at once, immediately ready to kneel and beg for mercy.
