《The Three Kingdoms》cold-blooded

Ma Yue led 50 horsemen to rush into the north gate of Wancheng like a wind swept cloud.
Guan Hai and Pei Yuan Shao, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly greeted him from the city tower, and from a long distance, Guan Hai asked, "Bo Qi, where are the horses? How come I don't see that guy Zhou Cang?"
Pei Yuan Shao was careful and stared at the quivering feather arrow on Ma Yue's left arm and asked, "Bo Qi, have you been hit by an arrow?"
Ma Yue's expression was frosty, he didn't have time to explain to the two of them, and said sternly on horseback, "Guan Hai!"
"Yes!"
Guan Hai instinctively straightened his body and promised in a stern voice.
"Beat the drums and order the troops to assemble outside the east gate immediately."
"As ordered."
Guan Hai roared, took the reins of the horse from the hands of his soldiers, turned onto the war horse, and sped towards the east gate.
"Pei Yuan Shao."
Pei Yuan Shao also said angrily, "Yes."
Ma Yue asked, "How are the horseshoes, stirrups and saddles prepared?"
Pei Yuan Shao said, "There are more than 500 pairs of stirrups and saddles, and more than 600 sets of horseshoes."
Ma Yue asked, "How many war horses have been nailed up and replaced with new style saddles?"
Pei Yuan Shao said, "Just 30 horses, which were left in the barracks for the brothers to try out."
Ma Yue said, "Good, throw all the horseshoes that have been made into the melting furnace, melt them all, throw all the saddles into the furnace fire and burn them, slaughter the 30 horses immediately, burn the saddles, strip the horseshoes and melt them! Also, order all blacksmiths and carpenters to assemble at the barracks, go!"
Pei Yuan Shao was stunned: "Destroy ...... all destroyed? Why is that?"
Ma Yue shouted, "Still not go quickly!
"Obey the order!"
Pei Yuan Shao's heart jumped, did not dare to ask more questions, received the military orders and hurriedly went.
Ma Yue sucked in a breath and sped towards the office of the governor. Although the cavalry could not be formed, Ma Yue was not discouraged, but the drawings that he left in the office of the governor must be destroyed and must not fall into the hands of the official army.

When he arrived at the office of the governor at a gallop, Ma Yue just turned over and landed on his horse, he saw Liu Yan greeting him with an anxious look.
"The first thing you need to do is to get a new one. Don't go, it's a trap, 5000 elite official troops have already designed the trap and are waiting for you to enter it."
Ma Yue turned pale and grabbed Liu Yan's lapel and said sternly, "5,000 official troops! How did you know that?"
"Ahem~" Liu Yan's pink jade strength was tightly strangled by Ma Yue, a breath of air could not come up, incoherent, "I ~~ I ~~ you ~~ let go ~~"
"How can you do this to sister Liu Yan!?"
A shout, a silhouette suddenly rushed out from the courtyard, but Zou Yu Niang hand carrying a broomstick to Ma Yue's hand stabbed, the move is still there, but lightly without power. Ma Yue coldly grunted, reached out a hand, Zou Yu Niang even with Yin broom plucked to the ground, then let go of Liu Yan's lapel, sternly shouted: "What is going on? Tell me!"
Liu Yan looked gloomy, said in a low voice: "Yesterday, my sister Yuniang and I rescued a woman in the righteous village, but escaped from Luoyang, she was an official lady ......"
Ma Yue frowned, sternly said: "No time, later on the road to say."
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you're doing.
One of the bandits said gloomily, "We were caught in the Han army's trick, 2000 horses were all killed, Brother Zhou Cang and Mao San, Niu Si, and more than 200 of their brothers to hold back the Han army cavalry, most of them are also not safe."
Liu Yan lost color and said, "Oh my God, it's too late?"
Ma Yue rushed into the courtyard with big strides, and threw all the drawings he had made overnight into the fire pan, looking at the brocade and silk quickly turned into ashes in the fire pan, Ma Yue's gaze became unusually gloomy. In a chaotic world, the gamble is life, one person is like this, a thousand people are also like this, the head is on their waist, what else can be afraid of?
A few moments later, Ma Yue's figure appeared outside the gate, reached out and pointed to Zou Yu Niang to Liu Yan said: "You, take her, and the official lady you said, immediately go to the east gate outside the assembly! He Laoshi, you take ten brothers to protect them, the rest of the brothers follow me, go to the barracks!"

......
In the barracks, more than a hundred blacksmiths and more than two hundred carpenters had been assembled and gathered around the schoolyard, mingling like a bazaar, Pei Yuan Shao, dressed in military attire, stood on the point platform with his sword, and more than a hundred stragglers guarded the entrances and exits of the barracks, surrounding the entire schoolyard.
Ma Yue's wolf-like eyes swept around the entire schoolyard and sternly said, "Silence!"
In an instant, the whole schoolyard was silent, all the craftsmen looked at Ma Yue dumbly, wondering what this relatively good-talking leader of the roving bandits wanted. However, they did not think badly for the time being, under the leadership of this leader, the 800 stragglers were different from the yellow turban bandits in the past, the yellow turban bandits were scourging people on sight, but these 800 stragglers only scourged the big families, like them, the common people were not offended.
Ma Yue took a breath and said in a stern voice: "We have been stationed in Wancheng for some time, the eight hundred bandits do, I believe that everyone knows in their hearts, we only kill the rich, only rob large families, never harm the common people, so ...... I will never do anything to you, this point please absolutely rest assured! "
"That is, the big chief's benevolence, we have in mind."
"Yes, the big chief also let people in the city to open the righteous village, such a stragglers ...... er no, is the righteous army, really than the official army is more intimate which."
......
Artisans have begun to sing praises and praise.
Ma Yue abruptly raised his right arm, all artisans are awe-inspiring silence.
"But we are after all stray pirates, the court will eventually send official troops to invade and suppress, Wancheng is good, but we can not stay forever. Today, we eight hundred stragglers will turn into, a word, we need artisans, there are willing to go with us, I Ma Yue welcome with both hands, from today onwards is my Ma Yue life and death brothers. If you are not willing to go, I will never force you to do so, please go home after the payment. Now, please make a decision, those who are willing to go with us, please take ten steps forward and stand down on the stage."
The craftsmen began to discuss with each other, and then the camp began to split, only a dozen craftsmen took ten steps forward and stood under the platform, while the remaining 300 craftsmen remained in the same place without moving.
A faint smile appeared on Ma Yue's face and he said to Pei Yuan Shao beside him, "Old Pei, take these craftsmen who are willing to go with us to assemble outside the east gate, those who don't want to go, please wait a little longer, I'll have someone fetch money, calculated by head, one thousand money per person!
"You're too kind, chief."
"Yes, we don't want to be paid."
"Thank you, big chief, thank you."
In fact, most of these craftsmen were honest craftsmen, who were used to being bullied, and they were not used to encountering such a benevolent leader as Ma Yue.
When Pei Yuan Shao led the dozen artisans far away, the smile on Ma Yue's face gradually faded away, and finally turned into a cold killing machine.
"Clang~~"
The original noisy schoolyard suddenly became strangely silent, the craftsmen finally realized that something was wrong, because the large group of stragglers around the schoolyard did not even go to the general transport of copper, but raised their shiny steel swords ......
"Kill!"
Ma Yue's eyes a flash of murderous opportunity, from the mouth collapse out of a cold kill word.
"Kill~~"
More than a hundred of the stragglers roared like wolves, waving their swords forward, shiny steel swords with a dazzling cold blanket viciously cut down, but this time, the object of their killing is no longer the official army, but the unarmed artisans, but there is no trace of hesitation and intolerance in their eyes, there is only hideous and cruel.
The defenseless artisans were quickly killed, and the schoolyard was filled with rivers of blood and mountains of corpses.
It's not that I am treacherous, but I can't keep you!
The last look at the ground full of dead bodies, Ma Yue jumped off the point platform, as early as a straggler led the war horse, Ma Yue turned onto the horse, hand a move, stern voice: "Go, go to the east gate ~ ~ ~"

The Painter: A fantasy psych thriller and epic
*** June 21th Update ***- New chapters are being posted! I haven't figured out a schedule yet, but stay tuned!- Thank you to everyone who has read and reviewed, I'm happy to say The Painter is in the top 200 best-rated fictions. - Readers of The Painter have suggested reading through Chapter 6 before making a decision on this book.- The story takes place in the Lootverse, but you don't need a canonical understanding to appreciate the storyFinally, a warning or reader beware: This is not an action novel (despite the coming fight scene) but a slow-burn psychological thriller of sorts. For a time, the Painter's life was simple. He lived in the small town of Kinon (called Kinney by locals) with his wife, Kahriah and his son, Thesdon. The story begins with him alone and unable to travel more than a few hundred miles from his home. For 5 years he tried to chart his prison until one day a letter appears with a mysterious commission that will see him test his condition and his boundary. Set roughly 50 years before the impending end of days (from Loot canon), The Painter is a story about loss, grit, and exploration of a seemingly normal man in a world of magic and monsters. The Painter will follow the man on his adventure to restore his family, uncover his commissioners and discover the nature of his condition. Loot is the decentralized, global, community built fantasy world based on Dom Hoffman's art/tech experiment: Loot. Fun fact: The cover of our book is painted by the artist, who the MC is loosely based on and the same person painting the Banners (digitally) IRL for an art/worldbuilding project.
