Five hundred and sixtieth chapters Xiongdu (six)
563.
Since Pujin fell, all the gates of Chang'an City have rarely been opened. However, today, with the orders of Yinshi Division, all the gates of Chang'an have been opened. Jingzhao Yingyang, who is armed with soldiers, is ready to prevent Jinyang from taking advantage of the situation.
Since its completion, this giant beast that has always devoured the world's wealth, wealth, fame and fortune and even the flesh and blood of thousands of people has once again opened its bloody mouth and exposed its sharp fangs. However, this time the purpose is no longer to swallow and absorb, but to spit out.
The fully armed soldiers and halberds held spears forcibly drove out the total number of people in the city with nearly 600,000, and were not allowed to carry goods or food. The rain in the sky was accompanied by the tears of the people, and the thunder mixed with crying. It was difficult to distinguish between them. After all, the people were not officers and soldiers, and they could not enforce orders without training in the army, and they were not prepared in advance. They were either reluctant to give up real estate or savings, or simply reluctant to leave the city, even if there was a first-tier opportunity.
Furthermore, the huge team lacks organization, like a monster that has lost its head. It doesn’t know where it should go, nor how to act, and it is afraid that it will not be able to walk fast even if it wants to. Even if the officers and soldiers urge it with guns and sticks, even if someone has been left with their heads and bodies because they insist on staying, the team’s movements are still as slow as a snail.
Lu Baisui, who was like a wooden sculpture, was moving forward in a daze in the team. Yin Shishishi issued a death order this time. Even if the Yingyang soldiers took special care of him, he only asked him to bring an extra bag, wrapped in a few nails as dry food, and could not bring any other wealth. Decades of hard work and the hope of continuing the family business were wiped out with this migration order.
The Hu people beside him were tall and deep, rich slaves wearing new cotton robes, and several authentic Guanzhong dialects cursing Yinshi Master in their familiar language, with different accents. Yingyang Bing was only responsible for driving the people out of the city, and did not have the obligation to safeguard General Yin's reputation. Besides, these Yingyang Bing were not necessarily satisfied with Yinshi Master and did not stop this behavior.
Lu Baisui did not participate in the curse, not because he did not want to, but because he was powerless. He had lost the curse and even the strength to hate. Since his son died, he only wanted to continue his life in this city, and at least he could die in the capital when he died. Now even this little hope has been shattered. What else can he curse? Who should he scold?
His eyes looked over the crowd and found that not only merchants, vendors, ordinary people, but also officials in the team, but also officials wearing official robes. It seems that as the chief of fire said, even officials in the court, who were unable to defend the city as long as they were not qualified to attend court, were also expelled. In addition to the King of Dai, concubines, palace maids and some officials who were left here, there were only Yingyang soldiers. The once prosperous and prosperous capital was about to become a huge barracks. No matter what the victory or defeat, the city was over!
Lu Baisui felt that his eyes were gradually blurred, and the scenery and people around him became distorted and deformed. The rain turned from turbid to dark red, as if countless plasma fell from the sky. He saw the body of Hu Shang, who had always been kind to him, lying on the roadside. A few days ago, he jumped around the Liren Market and wanted to recruit people to prepare to offer the city to die beside Hu Ren. But then, he found that the dead body seemed to have changed. The body was not Hu Shang, not the Ranger, but his sons. After a while, he became a long-dead father, and finally himself...
I rubbed my eyes desperately, but the more I rubbed my eyes, the harder I could see clearly. Within my sight, there were blood everywhere, corpses and raging fire. If I die, I will die! Everyone will die! The tragedy that my father once said has happened again. The world is in chaos and cannibalism, countless people are displaced and their families are destroyed, and the Tongdu Daquan is destroyed by war. This kind of tragedy is about to happen again, and the people should suffer again!
It shouldn't be like this! The world is already peaceful, and people can have a few days of peace, so why do they still do this? Lu Baisui felt dizzy and his body gradually became no longer under control. Suddenly, his feet slipped and he fell heavily to the ground. The bag was thrown away, and several nails inside rolled all over the ground, mixed in mud and water, and was quickly taken away.
Wei Xuan’s Mansion.
Wei Xuan and Yin Shishi Master were still sitting opposite each other, and the drink he used was still peony flower tea, but the charming tea slave was gone, and they all experienced it from cooking to ordering tea.
Both of them are important ministers of the Great Sui Dynasty today, and a word can determine the life and death of millions of people. However, when it comes to the skill of the soup, they are not as good as the nameless tea slave. Even if the two are very frank about their desires, they have to admit that the tea soup they cook is very different from that day. In addition, the crying and wailing sounds in the wind make people feel very bad, and the tea soup becomes more and more tasteless.
Wei Xuan sighed: "The last time I heard such howling sounds was in the eleventh year of Daye. The thieves in Guanzhong rose up, and Your Majesty ordered me to help the people and eliminate the bandits. I still had some strength at that time, and broke Yang Xuan's revelation, thinking that it was no problem for mere bandits. But when I arrived at the place, everything I saw was starving. It was common for me to eat and eat, and human flesh was far easier to get than millet beans. There were dying people in the ditches, and crying sounds were everywhere.
It is heard that bandits and hungry people are all average, they cannot kill and kill but cannot defeat them. The court treasury is empty, and they want to ease relief but have no food to make. The wealth and food are either controlled by aristocratic families or lost in Liaodong. I only have three-foot swords, but I don’t know who to kill, and I don’t know how to kill them. I am not afraid of Yang Xuangan, who is known as the rebirth of the overlord, nor are I afraid of the rebels under his command, but I dare not look at the skinny and bone-ridden hungry people, let alone swing their swords at them."
Master Yin Shi said: "Donald Xuan asked for resignation on that day, because of this?"
Wei Xuan nodded and then continued to say, "My illness was also the one that happened at that time. In fact, I have never seen this before. I just didn't expect that after the unification of the world, such a tragic incident would still happen again. Why did the decades of wars? I can't figure it out, and I dare not think about it. I resigned because I didn't want to see this again, but I didn't expect that I still didn't hide."
Master Yin Shi said: "This matter is all the crimes of the last general, and Duke Wei is responsible for it. Those who come to plead for mercy today are probably going to break the threshold, and I don't know how many people will go to Jiangdu to complain."
"With them, I don't care." Wei Xuan pushed his beard and sighed again: "After the great rise was built, Your Majesty issued an order to move the people of Guanzhong to become the capital. In addition, the country's prosperity and peace and business roads were smooth in the past few years, and the people in the best place were rich and wealthy. Merchants from all over the world came one after another. In addition to the officials' families, family servants, and even refugees who came here to seek survival in order to give land, the city has more and more Dingkou. Now the city's household registration has reached 600,000."
Master Yin Shi nodded and said, "Duke Wei is in charge of the Dharma Cave, and he doesn't want to know clearly about Dingkou in the city."
"The people are the foundation of the country, and they are court officials, how dare they be lazy in these important matters? Everyone says that power is the most respected in troubled times, but the people are the foundation. No matter how strong the military power is, without the support of the people, it is still a water without the source without the roots. These 600,000 people are indeed mixed with dragons and snakes. They cannot be allowed to go up to the city to fight and fight, and they have no effect on defending the city, but they are the cornerstone of the existence of Daxing. If Daxing is a strong man, the people are the blood in the body of this great man. Relying on the Eagle Racing Army can maintain it for a while, but if it takes a long time, the Eagle Racing Army must both defend the city and handle miscellaneous tasks, they are afraid that they are powerless. Although there is a large accumulation of grain in the city, there are countless wealth to reward the soldiers. However, if Li Yuan only sieges and does not attack, the city will inevitably be lost after a long time."
"Mr. Wei also knew what he said, and he knew that this plan was a bad strategy. But now Mr. Wei knew that the situation in the city is clear. If this strategy was not used, he would be unable to resist the Li family soldiers. After all, he would blame Li Yuan for not rebelling. If Jinyang had not invaded the emperor and caused trouble, why should I drive the people? It's a pity that the common people did not know the general idea. I was afraid that he would even say that Li Yuan was a benevolent lord and a cruel official. Let them go. As long as they could defend the city, they would say whatever they wanted."
"You will have some support for this statement. Can you tell me?"
Yin Shishi pointed out the window: "This rain is the biggest reliance. Li Yuan's plan to rebel is unwilling to the world. God will ruin his business. His money and food are all due to the transportation of Jinyang. As long as the peach blossom flood starts and waterways are cut off, his army will be cut off. At that time, these hundreds of thousands of people will be big stones, either crushing his troops to death or destroying his reputation. No matter what the result is, Li Yuan will not feel good. People... are just grass. As long as the troops in Jinyang retreat, some people are willing to live here, and hundreds of thousands of people can get it in a moment!"
Wei Xuan nodded without saying a word, and did not make a judgment on Yinshi Master's words. He just asked again: "I heard that you activate a thousand soldiers and horses to get out of the city, what are you going to do?"
"At the end of the day, the general was about to resign from Duke Wei, and he wanted to bring these thousand troops to do a big thing. A thing that Duke Wei did when he defeated Yang Xuangan that day."
In the past, Yang Xuangan was plotting against the enemy, and Wei Xuan led his troops to fight, so he first dug Yang Xuangan's ancestral tomb and burned Yang Su's bones. The Li family's ancestral tomb was near Daxing, so it was easy to dig. However, the battle between aristocratic families had their own rules, and the so-called selfless hatred was one of the rules.
The battle between the battlefield is ruthless and will naturally not hold back, but after one side is defeated and captured, it will most likely maintain its dignity and will not make enemies from the same aristocratic family too sad. After all, they have sympathy between each other, and today's enemies and colleagues tomorrow are common. Yinshi Master is a child of the Yin clan of Wuwei. His ancestors had two descendants and four marquises in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and they can be regarded as prominent. If they follow the rules of the battle between aristocratic families, even if Li Yuan wins the world in the future, they will not make things difficult for him. However, Yinshi Master was relentless to pursue the Chai family before, and this time he wanted to dig the Li family's ancestral grave, which was equivalent to doing things. If he broke this rule, he would not be protected by the rules. No matter which aristocratic family wins the world in the future, he would probably not spare his life.
Wei Xuan glanced at him: "You really want to do this? In fact, there is no need to do things so well. I was indignant for burning the bones of Duke Yue that day, and I was quite regretful afterwards. If you really dig the Li family's ancestral tomb, it would be difficult for you to turn back."
"At present, I can't turn back." Yinshi Master put down his glass cup and stood up and left the table. He saluted Wei Xuan. When he arrived at the door, he continued to say: "As the chief general, if I don't set an example for the three armies, I'm afraid that someone will be lucky. If the war is not good, it will inevitably lead to a different thought. Only when they know that even if they surrender, they will inevitably die. Only these qian men are willing to sacrifice their lives with me. Whoever lets the opponent be the famous benevolent lord Li Yuan, it's absolutely uneasy to not do things."
When Yin Shishi Master left, Wei Xuan lowered his head and sighed: "The capital of the Great Sui Dynasty has to rely on the protection of such madmen. The world may not last long. I just don't know who the world is in the hands of this world, and how will Daxing look like?" He looked out the window and looked dull, and after a long time, he murmured to himself: "Last Emperor... Your hard work, I will guard you, and I will not let you practice it casually..."
The huge city gate was slowly closed, and the people at the end of the team looked back reluctantly, and saw that the giant beast had closed its lips and refused to accept them again. The rows of officers and soldiers on the top of the city were waiting, warning everyone not to turn back, otherwise they would be added with hand and blades.
After leaving the city, there were no urging officers and soldiers, and the team naturally stopped. Seeing that the hope of going home was completely cut off, some people's emotions completely broke out, and the woman wailed heartbrokenly. The old man fell into the mud and water, pounded the ground hard, and kept shouting the name of the late emperor. More people looked around in a daze, not knowing where to go.
Lu Baisui, who was helped out of the city by several neighbors in good faith, was stimulated by the rain and finally woke up. Although he was still heavy in his head and feet, his limbs were not controlled, his mind was still a little clear-headed. He knew that if everyone could not find a place to join him, he would have to kill each other and feed on others in three days. This is not a strange thing. After all, his ancestors came from these days, and now they are just reincarnation.
Kill...eat...just do whatever you like?
Lu Baisui has lost his energy and does not want to resist and struggle anymore, nor does he want to revitalize his family business. No matter how much he does, he is still an ant. As long as a big man uses some effort, he can turn everything into nothing. What is the difference between living and dying like this? Why bother to care about so many?
At this moment, someone in the team shouted: "Don't cry anymore, all elders! The Tang Dynasty's righteous army is close at hand. As long as we wait to go and join us, we will definitely have some food to eat. Then we will fight back with the Jinyang righteous army, take back our homes and take revenge, and tear the Yinshi Master to pieces!"
The voice of his speech was very strange. Lu Baisui had never heard of it. Most of them were not from the market. But looking at his clothes, he seemed to be a Fangzheng? At this time, there was no leader in the group of dragons, and as long as he had an idea, someone would listen, let alone Fangzheng? Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, someone echoed loudly:
"That's right! Go and join Duke Tang!"
"Teen to the Duke of Tang to have food!"
"The Tang Dynasty Guild took us back and smashed the ghosts in the dark world!"
Countless shouts came one after another. Even those like Lu Baisui, who were not in conflict with the world, knew Li Yuan's reputation for being kind, let alone these people? Some people took the lead and some agreed. The voice became louder and louder, and soon overshadowed the thunder in the sky and the sound of rain.
