0654 See the Tower Builders Again

Zhao Guanren didn't know how many people followed him, but he only knew that he had collected hundreds of thousands of people along the way, such as the township brave regiment training and the arrest of fast officials, and it was estimated that the scale of the people exceeded one million, but the old and young women and children accounted for nearly half, and it can be said that most of them were burdensome.

"Quick! Go to the city to collect fire oil and send it to the front line......"

Zhao Guanren stood in the valley and shouted loudly, Rongma County is the place where he had rescued Lu Datou, the people in the city have already withdrawn to the other side of the river, but if you want to enter Rongma County, you must first pass through a serpentine valley, the valley is flanked by cliffs, which is an excellent ambush place.

"Hurry up, don't block the road, stay if you want to die......"

Zhao Guanren pulled out his steel knife to drive away the refugees, and the black-pressed refugees were like torrents, trotting out of the valley with their families and mouths, and the officers and soldiers had all gone up the cliffs on both sides, and a large number of torches lit up the valley like two fire dragons.

"Child, who saw my child, help......"

Noisy cries came and went, but at this time, human life was like a mustard, and there were as many as tens of thousands of dead people in accidents along the way, and the dead people were already dead to the point that people were numb, and Zhao Guanren had no time to take care of these, this was a great escape of the fittest.

"The people dig up the mountain road, prepare more fire oil and stones, and don't let the corpses rush up......"

Zhao Guanren's voice was almost hoarse, but except for the heralds who didn't serve him at all, the women around him were all in charge of logistics, and everyone had their own things to do, but fortunately, he brought 60,000 elite soldiers, all of whom were old subordinates who fought with him from the grassland.

"Lord Wang! the scout is coming to report ......"

A herald rushed over and said: "Our plan has worked, the light cavalry rushed to Shahuzhou with a few small corpses, the corpse army has been led over, it is estimated that it can delay until dawn for us, but the number of people exceeds expectations, I am afraid there are two million people!"

"What? Where are so many people ......?"

Zhao Guanren looked at him in disbelief, and the other party said depressedly: "The common people don't believe in evil, many people have gone out of the city and run back, and they only know that we are fleeing, and there are at least a million people in the nearby ten miles and eight townships, all of whom are coming to our side!"

"Master, it's a bad thing, Rongma County is not an empty city......

Luo Tan ran over panting, and said: "There are tens of thousands of misers hiding in the city, and the boats left at the dock have let them run away, and not a single boat has been left for us, only a large number of old and weak women and children have been left, we can only wait for Gusu's fleet to come!"

"Fuck! not enough to achieve, more than to fail......"

Zhao Guanren cursed angrily, and after a few words, he hurriedly walked to the cliff, nearly 100,000 people were busy on the mountain, and the mountain had been built into a fortification, while the officers and soldiers were seizing the time to rest, eat and drink.

"Lord Wang! there are too many people fleeing for their lives, when is this a head......

All the generals gathered, Zhao Guanren came to the edge of the cliff and looked out, the dark wilderness was full of sparkling firelight, countless people were pouring from all directions, the scale was comparable to a corpse, but the combat effectiveness was different from cloud and mud.

"No matter how much it is, as many as you can get in......"

Zhao Guanren said in a deep voice: "It is estimated that the corpse man will arrive before dawn, as long as they come in, they will blow up the mountain and close the road, if there are any remaining human beings, they can only be regarded as taking the blame, I have already sent the notice, we have already done our best!"

"But so many people can't be transferred......"

A dragon rider Qianhu frowned and said: "If you only rely on the Gusu fleet for transshipment, you won't want to transport so many people away for half a month, and it is also an astronomical amount for people to eat and chew, and when the time comes, everyone will be hungry and crazy, and there will definitely be a big mess!"

"Can't wait for the day when I'm hungry and crazy......"

Zhao Guanren clasped his arms and said: "200,000 corpses are just the vanguard troops, there are millions of people rushing over, corpses alone can fill in the cliff, we will stay here for five days at most, but we must find a way to open a lifeline, otherwise we will also be dead!"

"Lord Wang......!

One of the generals clenched his fists and said, "We have enough blacksmiths, let them immediately open the furnace to make iron, forge thick iron chains, and when the fleet arrives, immediately connect the ships and put them on the door board across the river, so that people can quickly run to the other side of the river!"

"It doesn't work!"

One person vetoed: "This is only a tributary of the Tongtian River, and we have to walk dozens of miles to the other side of the river to reach the riverside of the Tongtian River, and the water flow here is gentle, and the corpses can cross the river without holding stones, and we can only wait for death if we are trapped on the other bank!"

"Since the water is gentle, let's just build a bridge......"

Zhao Guanren immediately said: "There are so many of us, we can't sit still, all the men will start working for me, and if the city wall is demolished, a bridge will be built, and the iron chain will be left for use by the Tongtian River, and a pontoon bridge will be built when the fleet comes!"

"Yes, we have a lot of strength......

The eyes of the generals lit up, but Zhao Guanren said again: "The old animals are all killed and eaten meat, let the soldiers eat a full meal first, and distribute the rest to the strong workers, craftsmen, women and children, and the old people let them find their own way, and they can't share the rations of the soldiers!"

"Yes!"

The generals reluctantly clenched their fists to receive their lives, although it is a virtue to respect the old and love the young, but when it comes to the moment of life and death, they must first ensure that the young people live, so that they can resist the catastrophe.

"Where have you gone, but don't let anything happen......"

Zhao Guanren sat on the stone on the edge of the cliff, overlooking the boundless refugees, although the voices were noisy but quite depressing, most of them were hurrying with their heads bored, the rumbling footsteps were like a tsunami, and the people who were shocked were panicked.

"Your Highness, you have something to report ......"

A team of female dragon guards suddenly ran up, Zhao Guanren looked back in surprise, and saw a pair of young men and women tied up, one of them was the imperial concubine Tan Wenxi, the only survivor who followed him out of the palace, and a very tough little white face.

"What's wrong? What did Tan Wenxi do......"

Zhao Guanren stood up inexplicably, and Tan Wenxi, who was dead-faced, didn't dare to look at him, but a female commander said angrily: "Your Highness! The imperial concubine is shameless, she actually had a private meeting with a wild man in the forest, and after being broken by someone, she also injured people with weapons, and her crime should be punished!"

"Tan Wenxi, this person can't be your former fiancé......"

Zhao Guanren looked at the guy funny, Tan Wenxi sobbed and said: "I, I just met him, and I didn't do anything shameless, but the eunuch was so happy that he framed us for doing unscrupulous things, and I was angry...... Then he drew his sword and slashed him!"

"Lord, it's none of ...... mother's business"

Xiao Bai's face said urgently: "Although I have been engaged to my mother since childhood, I have never crossed the line, and I met by chance, and I was afraid that people would misunderstand before I walked into the forest to reminisce, if you want to fight or kill, come to me, Niangniang is innocent, all because I don't know the rules!"

"Johnson......!

Zhao Guanren looked at the female commander, and the other party hugged his fists and replied: "Go back to Your Highness!" The imperial concubine and the man have a secret meeting in private, even if they don't do anything wrong, they should be given death, the man is sentenced to death, and the relatives are exiled for thousands of miles.

"Tan Wenxi, even your father was finished before, but fortunately, the dynasty has changed......"

Zhao Guanren said with a smile: "The Dragon Guards have all been remembered for me, the Kingdom of Ji no longer exists, we are now the Han Empire, the current Queen Mother is Chen Yongning, Tan Wenxi is at most a widow of the previous dynasty, she is a civil widow what she likes to do, what do you do!"

“......”

Everyone was stunned for a while, even the onlookers were stunned, Tan Wenxi couldn't believe his ears, and he couldn't speak at all with his mouth open.

"Don't you understand the meaning ......of the Divine Decree?"

Zhao Guanren said funny: "Once a son of heaven and a courtier, Chen Yongning's eldest son is called Chen Guanxi, who is about to ascend the throne as the emperor, before the emperor becomes an adult, the queen mother will listen to the government, but Ji Guo is already in the past, you are all courtiers of the Han Empire, the founding father!"

"Your Highness, you are humble and stupid, we didn't understand what you said......

The female commander scratched her scalp and said in confusion: "We know that the dynasty has changed, but the queen mother's deceased husband is Ye Guanhai after all, Tan Wenxi is her sister, according to the rules, she is still a member of the Han royal family, do you want to depose all the girls?"

"Johnson, why are you so stupid......"

Zhao Guanren pinched her face and said with a smile: "Why is Chen Guanxi's surname Chen, in order to dissociate himself from the Ye family, otherwise who will be punished by heaven, and the queen mother divorced before Ye Guanhai's corpse changed, the widow of the previous dynasty, the prince and the emperor, etc., have no half-dime relationship with the Han royal family, understand?"

"Understood......!

The burly Johnson nodded and said, "How do the ladies of the previous dynasty settle, and do you want to continue to send people to protect and serve them, they are already civil widows, right?"

"Before crossing the river, follow the old rules, and someone will take over the plate after crossing ......the river."

Zhao Guanren smiled and waved his hand, and after Tan Wenxi and her lover were released, he smiled and said: "People's daughter Tan Wenxi, from now on you are free, you can marry whoever you want!"

"Thank you for the grace of reconstruction......"

Tan Wenxi excitedly pulled her lover to kneel, and the little white face kowtowed excitedly, but Zhao Guanren suddenly looked at the woods on the side and said with a smile: "This hero, are you satisfied with the king's disposition, do you want to stab me with a sword?"

"There are assassins!"

The dragon guards immediately dispersed and drank, but a man in black slowly walked out of the woods, carrying a dark sword and bowing and saying, "The prince is fair, and the grass people have thanked the prince for his kindness!"

"Second brother, why are you here......"

Xiao Baimian exclaimed, and Tan Wenxi also hurriedly got up and said: "Lord, this is Li Zihao's second brother Li Zinan, he just cares about the safety of the two of us, and he is not here to assassinate the king, and he is as free as you...... Don't be poisoned by that corpse!"

"Immunity to corpse poison? How can it be ......?"

Zhao Guanren looked at the man in black in surprise, but Li Zinan said expressionlessly: "The grass people don't know what immunity is, but I saw the battle between the prince and Ye Yunchen on the wall of Jinling City, but the poisonous fog made me dizzy, and the grass people didn't come forward!"

"Have you ever been injured by a corpse, are you sure that corpse poison can't hurt you......"

Zhao Guanren looked at him in disbelief, Li Zinan still had a dead face, and said: "I accidentally let the corpse become a servant bite, I thought it would be infected at the time, but after being in a coma for a while, it will be fine, and I don't know why it happened!"

"Ha~"

Zhao Guanren stepped forward and smiled: "I didn't expect to meet a tower opener again, tell me what you saw when you were unconscious, who is talking to you?"

"I don't know!"

Li Zinan shrugged his shoulders and said: "There is a strange black guy, it says that it can make me the supreme of martial arts, the dragon among people, I let it roll, and it will roll!"

Zhao Guanren asked with interest: "It seems that you are a person in the rivers and lakes, what kind of cultivation, do you have a name in the rivers and lakes?"

"Super one product! the second on the list of heroes, and Li Zinan, the life-seeking flying knife, ......"

"Who's the first?"

"Kang Long Gong Ye Yunchen, but he knows spells, and his victory is disgraceful......"
