Volume 1 Riding a horse and leaning on the bridge, full of red sleeves Chapter 215 Ground burial
Boom!
The prefect of Sujin sat on the chair and almost collapsed the chair.
"Huashi City was really slaughtered, this turned out to be true, it turned out to be true......"
As the core staff of the prefect, the six people present were also pale and at a loss. Any official of the Ming Dynasty will have no master when such a thing happens.
It took a long time for the prefect to recover, and he waved his hand: "Sit, sit, this matter has to be discussed in the long run." ”
The six people, who had already had weak legs, slowly sat down on the chairs on both sides, took a sip of the tea on the table, and moistened their throats, so that they would not be speechless.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is indeed time for life and death at this time, and the lives of your family may be ruined. If you have any ideas, there's no need to hide them, let's talk about them. The prefect said weakly. When it comes to other things, he has always asked for advice when he has the bottom in his heart, but this time he really has no bottom.
A county within the jurisdiction of the city was slaughtered, such an incident reported to the imperial court must be a sensation in the Manchu Dynasty, at that time not only a small Sujin Mansion, but even the entire Yongliang officials may not be able to keep the head of Xiang Shang. The Sujin prefect is the first to bear the brunt, even if there are ten heads, it is not enough to cut off. He can still continue to preside over the overall situation now, which is already a good performance, but if it is others, they may directly commit suicide in fear of sin.
"My lord, the more you can't mess up at this juncture, and if you mess up, you'll lose everything. One of the staff members said in a trembling voice.
"Don't talk nonsense, now it's time to figure out how to solve it!" someone rebuked angrily.
"Then what do you say you can do!"
"Now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, and no one can survive if they don't work together!" someone slapped the table excitedly, shook the teacup on it, and sprinkled the table with water.
From the beginning to the end, the only person who was still calm spoke at this time: "In the opinion of his subordinates: First, the news must be tightly sealed, and too many people must not know about it! Therefore, troops must be sent to block Huashi City and the road into the city, and it is said that Huashi City has a sudden plague and is not allowed to pass!"
The prefect and the others stopped talking, but listened attentively. Now, right or wrong, it's good that someone can come up with an idea.
"Second, we must make good use of that guerrilla general! Paper cannot contain fire, and sooner or later this matter will be known to the higher-ups. When the time comes, who will bear the blame?"
The first thing is the most anxious thing, and the second thing is the most fatal thing, which is something that must be considered by everyone in Sujin Mansion.
"Therefore, we must make good use of the guerrilla general! All the responsibilities must be borne by him!" A simple sentence, but full of blood.
"Tell me what's going on!"
"After Sujin Mansion got the enemy's situation, he immediately sent a guerrilla general to Huashi City to garrison, so as to beware of the strangers of the Hexi Ancient Road, but he didn't want this general to collude with the thieves, and he directly plundered the Huashi City!
After a moment's silence, the crowd agreed to the decision. With the general direction, everything is easy to say. As for the details, they were able to think it through.
"The third is the question of how to report it! Huashi City was only plundered, not slaughtered! There were no more than 100 casualties! This must be clear to all of you here!" When he said this, the speaker's eyes were full of murderous aura. "If anyone wants to mention the word 'slaughtering the city' again, they will be killed immediately!"
The prefect immediately ordered that all these three articles be put into action, and set a time for completion, and those who did not complete it within the time limit would surely die quietly.
After the crowd had dispersed, the staff member went back and talked to the prefect secretly: "Your Excellency still needs to send someone to keep an eye on everyone and prevent them from escaping! At this juncture, you can't trust anyone! In addition, your Excellency also needs to arrange a way out." ”
After nearly ten years of hard work, it is not easy to really retire, and there must be a person who is familiar with Sujin Mansion and can take care of it.
The prefect thought so, took the hand of the staff, and continued to talk deeply. Such a sinister and cunning staff member has many advantages, but anyone will be wary. But at such a juncture, this person is not competent.
As for how the people will meet and agree privately after they disperse, no one knows.
Obviously, no one leaked the news, but the Sujin City was already full of wind and rain, and everyone was in danger, and it would not be long before the panicked and trapped people here could besiege the Sujin Mansion, or even directly break through the city gates.
......
In the gloomy dungeon, the guerrilla general was restless, no matter how loud he roared, it was useless, and the "Peerless Stone" pierced into the vertebrae broke his idea of cultivating his deeds.
At this time, a group of people suddenly came, opened the chains of the dungeon, and the cultivator of the mountain realm led by him said, "Let's go, brother." ”
"Where are you going?" replied the guerrilla general in a cold voice.
"As you wish, go and chase down the Inhumans of the Hexi Ancient Road. ”
The guerrilla general was puzzled, but he still followed the gang in front of him. In his eyes, the Inhumans who pursued the Hexi Ancient Road were more important than anything else.
As an important gateway to the northwest, Sujin Mansion has more than 10,000 soldiers, but it has been neglected for a long time, and they have basically become stragglers. When the guerrilla general first arrived, he wanted to discipline him strictly, at least to train an army capable of fighting, but instead aroused public indignation, and he was gradually marginalized, and there were very few who were willing to follow him, so he came to the Sujin prefect to send troops. In any case, the pedantic civilian finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
Led a cavalry of 100 people, the guerrilla general rushed to Huashi City.
The city that used to be full of flowers is now a scorched earth, and it is not an exaggeration to say that only a greater fire can better cover up all evils.
The guerrilla general circled Sujin City again, re-examined the traces of the battle, became more sure of his judgment, and led a hundred-man cavalry team to pursue in the northeast direction.
After the guerrilla general left, the person in charge who remained here ordered: "Prepare - perform 'ground burial'!"
Each of the thirty-six practitioners occupies a position, holding the earth with both hands, and all the vitality in the body is vented.
The earth began to roar!
A piece of scorched earth collapsed in an instant, buried a hundred feet deep in the ground, covered with heavy rock and soil, and in the blink of an eye, it became a new land. Anyone who hasn't been here would never have imagined that there was a thriving city here.
"Pranayama for half an hour, and then perform the 'heavenly work' according to the plan!"
The guerrilla general, who had already traveled three hundred miles in a hurry, suddenly turned over and dismounted, put his ears on the ground, and after a moment got up and glared angrily at the man behind him.
"You used 'burial in the ground'?!Who gave you the right?!" In an instant, the guerrilla general understood the other party's intentions. Sujin Mansion didn't plan to truthfully report the slaughter of Huashi City at all, but tried every means to cover it up!
The cultivator who saw the mountain realm raised his eyebrows and said contemptuously: "The guerrilla general of Sujin Mansion sealed the wolf residence, colluded with the Yiren of the Hexi Ancient Road, looted Huashi City, and slaughtered seventy-six people. On the way to escape, he was caught up by the Sujin Mansion Army, and he resisted stubbornly and was punished on the spot!"
Feng Wolf's eyes were torn and he wanted to pull out the long sword at his waist, but found that the sword was empty.
The leader of the mountain realm cultivators smiled and said, "What's the matter, the guerrilla general is looking for a sword, I have one here, so I'll send you to Huangquan!"
