PS: Three updates tonight, make up for it tomorrow

A trace of twilight gradually enveloped Yunzhou City.

Under the city, torches gradually lit up in the Qinglong King's army, and dense torches stretched far away, with no end to see.

After Xiao Ming reported his identity, whispers gradually broke out among the people under the city.

Last year, news of Xiao Ming expelling the barbarians had already spread throughout the Great Yu Kingdom with the newspapers, and many people knew about this.

The young man put away his arrogant expression. He crawled back into the crowd, and after a while, he turned back, followed by a scholar in a black robe.

Xiao Ming looked at the scholar, and the scholar also looked at Xiao Ming.

After a long time, the scholar said, "I have met His Highness, King Qi."

In the dim light, Xiao Ming could not see Qi Zhengyuan's appearance clearly.

He said directly: "King Qinglong, I don't know what you meant to bring troops to Yunzhou? The natural disasters in Jizhou are not done by manpower. Although King Yong is wrong, but now the barbarian enemy is in front of you, you should be able to take the overall situation into consideration. How can you do things that your relatives are hurt and your enemy is happy."

At this time, the Qinglong King's low voice sounded, and he said, "Your Highness may have misunderstood. This time he came because there was no food in the army. The people were very hungry. I just hope that your Highness can borrow some food. As a citizen of the Great Yu Kingdom, how could he help the barbarians cut off the Qingzhou army's food route."

"No, since you are borrowing grain, why don't you go to other cities to borrow grain?" Qi Guangyi said.

"Your Highness has set up a strong army and is ready to take shape. How could the defenders of other cities borrow food? After all, in their eyes, we are rioters and wish we could stand them immediately. But we are just a group of ordinary people who have no food to eat and have no choice but to take up weapons. Only when you hear that Your Highness Gao Yi is willing to take us, the victims, so you have to bring them." The words of the Qinglong King are clear and orderly.

Looking at the victims who could not see the end, Xiao Ming knew that these people were victims of the disaster, and those who were not honest were soldiers of the chaos.

He could not take huge risks to put them into the city. Once the disaster victims make trouble, he will not only lose a state, but also Niu Ben and the others may not come back.

This is not the time to care about the people. After all, the people are under the command of the Qinglong King and obey his command.

However, the Qinglong King said bluntly that he would borrow grain, and he tentatively said: "There are some in the grain city. Since you want to borrow grain, how much do you plan to borrow?"

"Three hundred thousand stones of grain." The Qinglong King said lightly.

Xiao Ming's expression changed, and he said: "One person, one stone of food is enough for every disaster victim to eat for several months. Qinglong King, it seems that you are deliberately making things difficult for me."

The Qinglong King's voice was still very calm. He said, "Your Highness, the natural disaster in Jizhou cannot be alleviated in several months. This seems not to be an exaggeration."

Speaking of this, he already understood the deep thoughts of the Azure Dragon King.

He was no longer opposing King Yong, but against the Dayu Kingdom, and what he wanted was to overthrow the current court.

Now all the cities in southern Jizhou have been occupied by the Qinglong King, and now he looks at the Yunzhou City, which is closest to him.

The King of Wei, who had quickly accumulated following the Qinglong King, also made him willing to follow him to do anything.

"Your Highness, the Qinglong King is rebelling." Zhan Xingchang defined the Qinglong King.

Xiao Ming nodded. At this point, the Azure Dragon King has revealed his true face.

Perhaps at the beginning, he did lead the people to find a meal out of dissatisfaction, but now the continuous victory seems to have gradually expanded his mentality. He may think that with these victims, he can see the supreme throne.

At this time, the Azure Dragon King must also understand that he cannot turn back when he takes that step.

This is a desperate person, and his vision is also very vicious. The main force of the Qingzhou Army is outside and empty inside, which is when his fisherman gains profit.

Since we have embarked on this path, benevolence, righteousness and morality are bullshit, and what is the national justice? Only success, king, defeat, and bandits are the truth.

what to do?

This is the question Xiao Ming and Zhan Xingchang are thinking.

After a long time, the two of them had a look of their eyes, and the army besieged the city, and they had only one choice left, so fight!

"It's just a pity for the innocent people." Xiao Ming sighed in his heart. These people don't understand. They only believe that the Qinglong King who can find food for them is right.

He didn't want to use this method to attract the victims, but now it seems he has to do it.

However, he finally advised: "King Qinglong, what is in front of you is the Qingzhou army, not the native chicken and tile dog of King Yong. You have to figure it out."

"Your Highness, I am just borrowing food. If your Highness refuses to borrow, why should I say too much? The people behind me have no food to eat, and I can't control it."

With a cold snorted, Xiao Ming was not ready to pay attention to the Qinglong King anymore.

He was too naive. These 300,000 to 400,000 victims would be encircled and suppressed by the Great Yu Kingdom in the end, and he would eventually embark on the road of failure.

Although the Great Yu Kingdom declined, it was still more than enough to suppress a rebellion. If King Yong had not been restrained by the barbarians, they would not have survived until now.

The night gradually became deeper, and the Qinglong King didn't seem to want to attack the city at night, but the 300,000 victims broke the small Yunzhou city.

That night, the Qinglong King looked at the small Yunzhou City.

Just as Xiao Ming guessed, he was precisely because of the current emptiness of Qingzhou, which allowed him to take advantage of the situation.

The food in Jizhou was eaten almost the same, and more of the food was hidden in the city of Jizhou by King Yong, and now Jizhou City is surrounded by barbarians.

He did not dare to provoke the barbarians. A month ago, his 30,000 people were defeated by the barbarian cavalry. Although he also organized the people to train after the uprising, they were no match for the barbarian cavalry.

Now, provoking barbarians will only lead to defeat.

Therefore, he chose King Qi. In his eyes, King Yong is a royal family and King Qi is also a royal family. What is the difference between the two?

Moreover, in his perception, King Wei and King Yan were too strong, and he was far from his opponent now.

So only when he takes over the vast land from Jizhou to Qingzhou can he compete with these vassal kings.

Looking at Yunzhou City, his ambitions continued to expand. He was no longer the down-and-out scholar he used to be, but a general who controlled hundreds of thousands of people.

While he was pondering how to attack the city tomorrow, Xiao Ming was also thinking about how to capture this huge team of victims.

For him, he would never allow the Qinglong King to destroy the lives of these people, but to capture these people, and some casualties were inevitable.

"Your Highness, the people of the Qinglong King are just a group of mobs, without any discipline or training, and the people are not very determined to follow the Qinglong King. After observing, many people looked very hesitant, so the officials thought that they did not need to defend the city, but had to take the initiative to go out to fight, use musket teams to intimidate the people, and surrounded the cavalry and make these people surrender."
