Chapter 953 Huang Dabiao, you dare to betray me?

As soon as these words came out, all the generals changed their expressions:

"What? This...how is this possible?"

If Shui Gaoyang was really a traitor colluding with the barbarians of the Northern Desert, then if they followed him south to attack the capital, wouldn't they have fallen into the traitor's evil scheme and be the sinners who put the Dingbei Army and the people of the northern border in danger?

Everyone turned their eyes in shock to Shui Gaoyang, whose face was pale, hoping that this was not true.

Shui Gaoyang was already extremely panicked, but he could only force himself to remain calm and loudly argue:

"Duanmu Xiong! You really did everything you could to stop us from going south! You are just making groundless accusations and slandering me!"

"Oh, you really won't cry until you see the coffin! Huang Dabiao, bring the person up here!"

As soon as General Duanmu gave an order, a burst of crying and shouting was heard, and then more than 20 people were seen being brought over with their hands tied behind their backs.

They were the coachmen and guards of the dozen or so Water Palace carriages that had come out of the South City Gate earlier, as well as Madam Shui, Shui Baihong and others who had quietly left from the North City Gate.

Madam Shui had her hair disheveled and was being escorted over, staggering. The dignity and elegance of a noble lady from a military family in the past were gone. She cried and was terrified all the way.

No one knew where Shui Bailian's veil had fallen, but she was so frightened that she kept screaming and crying, and her tears had smudged the powder on her face, making her unrecognizable for a moment.

Shui Baihong has woken up at this moment, but the white cloth tied randomly on his head has been stained red with blood, and it is obvious that he has not been properly treated with medicine or bandages.

The person seemed to have lost his soul, with an expressionless face and empty eyes looking at nowhere. When pushed, he took a few steps forward, like a soulless puppet.

The old doctor was trembling with fear. He had not yet recovered from the shock of being tied to the carriage. He was so frightened by the scene before him that his legs were shaking. He needed two soldiers to hold his arms on each side and support him as he walked.

But probably because they knew the old doctor was innocent, they didn't tie him up.

The rest of the coachmen and guards had their hands tied up with ropes and were strung together and driven over like a string of grasshoppers.

The general who was escorting this group of people was none other than the missing Huang Dabiao.

Seeing this situation, what else does Shui Gaoyang not understand?

He was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot, and he raised his long sword and rushed forward:

"Huang Dabiao, you dare to betray me? I will chop you to death!"

However, after taking only a few steps, he was stopped by the soldiers who had just surrounded him. Soon, his sword was knocked away and he was tied up.

"Huang Dabiao, my Shui family treats you well, and my father values you so much, how dare you betray him?"

Shui Gaoyang, who was tied up tightly and forced to kneel on the ground, roared angrily, wishing he could chop the man who betrayed him into eight pieces.

Huang Dabiao was not in a hurry. He first greeted Duanmu Xiong and handed in his errand. Then he turned to Shui Gaoyang and said:

"Master Shui, although Huang is General Shui's lieutenant general, he is also a general of the Dingbei Army. He is loyal to the prince and the Dingbei Army! The same is true for General Shui. I already know the cause of General Shui's death. He was not killed by the emperor as you said. Instead, your precious daughter caused trouble in the capital and was demoted to the military prostitute camp by the emperor. General Shui felt guilty about the emperor and the prince, so he committed suicide. You confused right and wrong, deceived us to betray the emperor and the prince, betrayed the Dingbei Army, and colluded with foreign enemies, abandoning the lives of the Dingbei Army and the people of Northern Frontier. You are the scum of the Dingbei Army and the shame of your Shui family!"

"No! No! It's not like that! I'm not like that! Stop slandering me!"

Shui Gaoyang defended himself desperately.

Huang Dabiao did not argue with him. He walked straight to the front of the group of prisoners, grabbed a young woman dressed as a maid, tore a piece of her dress, and wiped her face, which was covered with makeup, vigorously with the rag.

Then he pushed the man and faced everyone:

"Everyone, look, who is this? Miss Shui, who was supposed to be in the military brothel camp in the capital, is here, and is hiding in the northern border disguised as a maid? This is the culprit who caused General Shui to commit suicide!"

The generals were naturally familiar with Miss Shui. When they saw that the faces clean of makeup were indeed the familiar Miss Shui, they all started talking about it, suspecting that there was some conspiracy.

Shui Gaoyang cried out that he was innocent and that it had nothing to do with him. It was his daughter and his wife who had kept it from him. He had no idea that his daughter had returned, nor did he know why they went to Beimo from the north gate when they should have gone out from the south gate.

Madam Shui and Shui Bailian both forgot to cry. They looked at Shui Gaoyang in disbelief as he kept putting the blame on others. They never expected that he would be so shameless.

However, General Duanmu had another trick up his sleeve.

He raised his hand again, and saw a group of soldiers coming forward with more than a hundred carriages.

General Duanmu pointed at the carriages and said to the surrounded soldiers:

"Look, Shui Gaoyang pulled more than 200 carriages of grain out of the granary. Why are there only more than 100 now?"

At a glance, the soldiers could roughly see that half of the carriage was missing, and they couldn't help but look at Shui Gaoyang again.

General Duanmu continued:

"Because the other half of the food was taken by the traitor Shui Gaoyang to honor the barbarians in the Northern Desert!"

"boom!"

All the soldiers were furious when they heard this.

The Northern Desert barbarians are their mortal enemies, and they are stationed here to stop the Northern Desert from invading Dai Viet.

In the past decade or so, how many of their brothers, family members and innocent people in the northern border have died at the hands of the northern desert barbarians?

Whether it is the soldiers of the Dingbei Army or the people of the Northern Frontier, as long as they have a trace of blood left, they will never forgive the Northern Desert Barbarians.

But now, Shui Gaoyang not only defected to Beimo, but also gave half of the food in the only two hundred or so carriages of their Dingbei Army to the enemy!

"Shui Gaoyang, you son of a bitch! Are you still a human being?"

"You bastard! You will not have a good death! The brothers underground will not let you go! General Shui will not let you go either! You are a scum! A traitor son of a bitch!"

"General Shui has been loyal to his country all his life, how could there be a spineless traitor like you? The Shui family is completely destroyed in your hands! You will not have a good ending!"

"Beat this bastard to death! I almost fell into his trap and became a sinner for all eternity. The glory I earned with my blood and sweat in this life will turn into shame."

"kill him!"

……

The deafening roar shook the snow off the treetops, and the entire hillside seemed to be shaking.

Even though Shui Gaoyang already knew what his fate would be, he was still frightened by the anger of the crowd and his face turned pale and he collapsed to the ground.

"Quiet! Come, raise the water high..."

General Duanmu raised his hand to ask everyone to be quiet. Just as he was about to send the Shui family and the soldiers following Shui Gaoyang away, a fast horse came galloping from a distance, and the scout sitting on the horse shouted from afar:

"Report! General, urgent news! Beimo has assembled 200,000 soldiers and is heading towards Beiguan City!"

Wulipu, which had originally quieted down, suddenly exploded again.

"General, I beg to fight!"

"General, I am willing to play as the vanguard and beat back these damn Northern Desert barbarians!"

"General, I am willing to go..."

"General..."

All the generals requested to go into battle.

Even the generals who were originally going to follow Shui Gaoyang to attack Beijing knelt on the ground and begged:

"General, we were deceived by the thief Shui Gaoyang and nearly committed a serious crime! Please forgive me for my crime and let me lead the troops to fight!"

"Please allow us to die for the people of Northern Frontier!"

Huang Dabiao also knelt on the ground and loudly asked for a fight:

"General, let me lead General Shui's men to lead the charge! We are definitely not traitors like Shui Gaoyang! Let us prove to His Majesty that we are not cowards or traitors!"
