Chapter 66 Requirements
There is no distinction between high and low life, and the death of countless soldiers has been exchanged for the lives of the people. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In Mo Xuan's eyes, the lives of these people will not be worse than those of those nobles!
These lives were exchanged for their own lives by the warriors, and Mo Xuan would never allow them to be trampled on easily.
The soldiers died bravely, not for the nobles, but for the common people behind them.
They want to protect their families, they want to protect those ordinary people, these people are the objects they protect, and they are the people they do not hesitate to sacrifice for.
These soldiers died in the end, and everything they desperately wanted to protect was inherited by Mo Xuan, the living soldiers.
Therefore, Mo Xuan will open a granary at all costs to relieve all the victims.
Mo Xuan's attitude was very resolute, his spear, exuding a cold chill, pointed at the granary, as long as the Dongyang City Lord did not open it, he would forcibly blast it open.
"Are those untouchables worth it for you to do this, it's definitely not a wise choice for you to offend me in these three northeastern counties!" the Dongyang City Lord roared angrily, really couldn't figure out why Mo Xuan cared so much about those ordinary people.
"If the families of our soldiers and the ordinary people we have been desperately guarding are treated like this, trampled on and tortured like this on our own land, and in the end life is worse than death, then what is the point of our fighting?"
"Everything we desperately want to protect is destroyed so easily by you, so what's the point of war?"
"If only the lives of your nobles are their lives, and the lives of the common people are not, then what is the meaning of our soldiers' horse leather shrouds and heroic deaths?"
"You were born noble and have a good fate, but this does not mean that the lives of the people are cheap!"
"In my eyes, your life, and your money, are worthless and meaningless. ”
"Now, you know why I care so much about the people, because they are all I desperately want to protect on the battlefield. ”
……
Mo Xuan said coldly, the words were sonorous, containing his great will and belief.
Behind him, many ordinary people heard Mo Xuan's words, and their eyes immediately turned red, and tears flashed.
Those soldiers who died on the battlefield also had their children, and now Mo Xuan's words made them understand that their children did not die in vain, and their lives still cared about.
It's hard to describe how touched you are!
Looking at Mo Xuan, they seemed to see their deceased child, and their hearts were sad and relieved.
"Ridiculous and ridiculous, a bunch of nonsense, you are fighting on the orders of Your Majesty, what bullshit guards, what bullshit fights, it's all nonsense. The Dongyang City Lord scolded all the time, denying everything Mo Xuan said.
Mo Xuan didn't bother to argue with him, since he had already torn his face, he had nothing to take care of, and it was the right thing to open the granary.
Seeing that the spear in Mo Xuan's hand showed signs of being thrown, the Dongyang City Lord's face changed greatly, and then he suddenly became hideous, staring at Mo Xuan hysterically, with madness, and roared loudly: "You have to think about it carefully, otherwise everything you care about, everything you guard, will no longer exist." ”
With that, the Dongyang City Lord waved his hand, and many forbidden troops from the Xuantian Realm poured out behind him, holding torches and swords, surrounding all the people and the granary.
"If you want the fish to die, then go ahead, and I'll kill all of you and burn down these granaries. ”
"I'd rather destroy my stuff than let people take it away, haha......"
……
The Dongyang City Lord said madly.
Hearing this, Mo Xuan and Mo Li both changed color, and they felt very troubled.
This Dongyang City Lord's appetite for wealth far exceeded their expectations, and he did not hesitate to destroy everything for the sake of these granaries, which made Mo Xuan jealous.
He opened the granary to help the people, but Dongyang City was mainly desperate to set fire to the grain, and he couldn't stop it, and if the forbidden army besieged and slaughtered those people, Mo Xuan couldn't protect it, and for a while, Mo Xuan didn't dare to act rashly.
"Believe it or not, before you set fire to the grain and send troops to slaughter the people, I can make you survive and not die!" Mo Xuan looked at the Dongyang City Lord with cold eyes, and said with a murderous awe.
The Dongyang City Lord actually threatened him with the people, which really made him really angry!
"If His Royal Highness the First Crown King forcibly robs my things, then I can't survive and die!" A smile appeared on the face of the Dongyang City Lord, as if he had seen through Mo Xuan's weakness and confidently controlled the current situation.
After being silent for a long time, Mo Xuan's raised arm turned slightly, and the silver dragon snow spear in his hand was aimed at the Dongyang City Lord.
A little cold light was dazzling, and it suddenly made the Dongyang City Lord's face tremble, and his pupils flickered.
"You...... What do you want to do, don't you really care if those people live or die, don't you want to save them?" the Dongyang City Lord shouted, a little lacking in confidence.
He felt that Mo Xuan really couldn't be treated according to common sense.
"Finally, I give you a chance to open a warehouse and put grain, otherwise...... Die!" Mo Xuan said indifferently, with every word, the killing intent became stronger, and in the end, it was already monstrous.
He understands that in the current situation, if he takes a step back, then he will want to open a warehouse and release grain, and hundreds of millions of people in Dongyang County will be tortured to death by natural disasters sooner or later.
So he has to be strong to the end and not lose control of the situation.
Mo Xuan had an inexplicable killing power in his body, and under the explosion of killing intent at this moment, he more or less carried some of the aura of that power, making his killing intent extremely terrifying.
The Dongyang City Lord's hair stood on end in an instant, and his heart was almost startled to stop, he was really frightened by this killing intent.
However, his greed for money made it difficult for him to back down, and it was somewhat unlikely that Mo Xuan would want to make him succumb with his killing intent alone.
But this is also effective, no one wants to die, when he really felt the breath of death, the Dongyang City Lord was timid, and his determination to break the net was also shaken.
He didn't want to die, he wanted to continue to enjoy it, and it was only when he really felt the breath of death that he understood how afraid he was of it.
In the face of Mo Xuan's strong questioning, the Dongyang City Lord's face was cloudy and uncertain for a long time, and finally forcibly calmed down and said: "Your Royal Highness, if you kill me so indiscriminately, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of this Dongyang City yourself." ”
"Don't you just want to help the victims? I can promise you, but I have a request!"
……
The Dongyang City Lord's tone slowed down, obviously making concessions, not wanting to really break the net.
"What request?" Mo Xuan frowned slightly!
"You suppress the bandits, I'll put the grain!" said the Dongyang City Lord, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked cunning.
"I'm a bandit, what do you mean by putting grain?" Mo Xuan's eyes flashed, and he asked in a deep voice.
"To tell you the truth, the main reason why this city lord doesn't release grain is actually because this Dongyang County is too chaotic, and I must leave enough reserve grain to ensure that no matter how chaotic it is, I can live comfortably in the city. ”
"Now you want me to open a warehouse and release grain, then it can indeed help the people for a while, but what about after you leave? When the time comes, bandits from all walks of life are still rampant, and I have no reserve of grain, how can I survive?"
"If you want me to release grain, you can, then all the bandits in Dongyang County will be exterminated, and the people will be given a good place, so that they can live and work in peace and contentment, so that I can worry about it again, if you can do this, I will promise you to open a warehouse and release grain." ”
"These grains are all my property, if you want me to release grain, then you can only negotiate business with me, now, my request is said, whether you can agree, whether you can do it, it's up to you. ”
"Everyone is an official of the imperial court, everything must be fair, if you don't agree, it will be to forcibly seize my assets and cut off my way of life. ”
……
The Dongyang City Lord said slowly, his expression a little indifferent.
This is his bottom line, if Mo Xuan wants to open a warehouse and release grain without paying any price, it is absolutely impossible.
Hearing this, the ordinary people who accompanied Mo Xuan into the city were in an uproar.
It would be too exaggerated to ask Mo Xuan to exterminate all the bandits in the entire Dongyang County.
As the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat with four hands, and there are indeed no terrifying monk bandits in Dongyang County, but the large number of key bandits makes up for the gap in quality.
Mo Xuan wanted to sweep away the bandits of the entire Dongyang County with the power of one person, which was too incredible, it was simply impossible.
Dongyang City Lord's request, said it is equivalent to not saying it, it is impossible to complete, if Mo Xuan agrees, it is tantamount to sending him to death.
And Mo Xuan himself, after listening to the words of the Dongyang City Lord, couldn't help but secretly say to the old fox.
This Dongyang City Lord's request is a plan to kill two birds with one stone!
If Mo Xuan agreed, then he could send Mo Xuan away and return Dongyang City to a clean place.
If Mo Xuan really exterminated all the bandits, then he could achieve great military feats, and he would receive countless rewards after starting the imperial court, and there would be no more bandits in Dongyang County, and the people would be able to farm again.
The most important thing is that the price he paid is negligible, as long as Dongyang County is restored to tranquility and the people can farm, the grain and the like will naturally increase day by day, and the granary will not be so valuable.
When the time comes, his empty granary will be filled again over time, and it will be more abundant.
Taking a step back, if Mo Xuan fails, then Mo Xuan's trouble will naturally be solved by those bandits, and he Dongyang City Lord can continue to live a comfortable life.
Whether it is success or failure, it is a good thing for the Dongyang City Lord, if it is successful, he can mix military merits, and he can be richer, and if he fails, he can get rid of Mo Xuan without much effort, and he will not be affected in any way.
This kind of business is a sure way to make a profit and not lose money, this Dongyang City Lord is a good calculation, so it can be seen that it is no coincidence that this person can sit firmly in the first place in such a chaotic Dongyang County.
After thinking of all these doorways, Mo Xuan sneered in his heart.
This Dongyang City Lord is obviously afraid that he will suffer a loss, and he makes this request for his own benefit, but he says it so high-soundingly, which is really hypocritical.
On the other side, the Dongyang City Lord couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw that Mo Xuan had been silent.
To be honest, he wasn't sure that Mo Xuan would agree to this request, after all, no matter how you look at it, it's impossible.
He made this request in the hope that Mo Xuan would retreat from the difficulty, after all, he really didn't want to be killed.
Under the worried gaze of the Dongyang City Lord, Mo Xuan finally ended his silence and looked up at him again.
