Chapter 150: Opening the City Gate

Shadow Thunder changed into a night suit, brought a climbing hook claw, and after a few rabbit ups and downs, he flashed to the foot of Qianyang City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info The structural diagram of Qianyang City, he had seen it many times, and went straight to a hidden corner.

At this time, the people in Qianyang City were panicked, and the fire in the palace had gradually spread, and many houses were affected.

The people in the house hurriedly packed up a few valuable things and fled in a hurry. For a while, I only heard the crying father calling my mother, and the flow of people was crowded and chaotic.

This Qianyang City was originally the state city of Langzhou, with a government office, and was seated by Langzhou Taishou and Shaoyuan.

In the past, it was the fief of the King of Qianyang, and Shaoyuan did not have much autonomy, nothing more than to deal with some civil lawsuits and maintain law and order. The taxes and fees in the city and the garrison were directly collected and appointed by the king of Qianyang.

When the incident of the King of Qianyang happened, he and Shaoyuan went to the palace, and the King of Qianyang was very painful, and persuaded him to return quickly. But where did the king of Qianyang listen, but he still needed him to maintain local stability, so he put him under house arrest in the state capital.

At this time, the elite henchmen of the King of Qianyang had been evacuated, the city was on fire, and the soldiers guarding the palace were scattered. The officials of the Langzhou government and the arresters quickly broke through the blockade and rushed into the Taishou Mansion.

He Shaoyuan was in a hurry in the house, and he was overjoyed to see that he had manpower. Busy assigning manpower, he personally led the team, and together with the water dragon team and officers and soldiers, went out to fight the fire, if this fire is not contained, the entire city will be burned to the white ground. When he really got there, he was the governor of the party, and he couldn't escape the blame.

The generals who defended the city were not confidants of the King of Qianyang, and they were not evacuated by Lin Xingchao. Seeing the fire in the city, and not seeing the order of the king of Qianyang, he hurriedly obeyed the power and ordered the soldiers guarding the city to join the firefighting team, and the guards on the city wall were loose.

Shadow Thunder climbed the wall, easily avoiding the guards, and headed for the city. Looking at the direction of the fire, which corresponded to the map of Qianyang City in his mind, it was obvious that the Qianyang Palace's Mansion was the source of the fire.

The current situation is chaotic, but Shadow Thunder can easily tell that there are two parts of the forces here. Those who put out the fire, looking at the officers and soldiers who should be dressed in the Langzhou Mansion, are obviously in command, busy but not chaotic.

The soldiers defending the city looked confused and lax in discipline. I wanted to put out the fire, but I was limited to the order to stay at the city wall. Although he didn't know where the King of Qianyang had gone, he obviously didn't give an order based on the current situation.

Shadow Lei saw the situation clearly and took it into account. Blending into the crowd that had escaped from the palace, he shouted, "The King of Qianyang is burned to death!" Everyone, run for your life! ”

Walking beside him, there were people helping the old and the young, and someone asked, "Really?" The King of Qianyang burned to death? ”

Shadow Ray replied affirmatively, "Really, I saw it with my own eyes. It's not that I escaped fast, and now I'm dead. ”

Although his words are full of flaws, what he said is the fact that the people around him want to hear. So "The King of Qianyang burned to death, everyone flee quickly!" The voices came and went.

The general who defended the city also heard that the king of Qianyang was dead? Do you defend this city, or do you not defend it?

was hesitating, and a person suddenly appeared in front of him, with a cold face, and shouted: "The king of Qianyang is dead, and he has not opened the city gate yet, and welcomed the imperial army into the city." Do you really want to rebel? ”

"Who are you?"

Shadow Ray showed him the Shadow Guard Talisman.

In order to make it easier for the Shadow Guard, all the officials and soldiers of the Gaomang Dynasty have learned to recognize the Shadow Guard Rune. The shadow guard acts secretively and lurks in the shadows for a long time, but if necessary, show this talisman to show the rank of official, get the corresponding help, and even mobilize troops and horses if necessary. Of course, different levels of runes have different permissions.

The general respectfully took the rune with both hands. Seeing that this rune is carved with ink jade, the front is engraved with the word "shadow" of the seal book, turn it over and see, there is only one "thunder" word behind it, and he is busy kneeling on one knee, and bows to the ground and says: "The last general Bi Mingda, knock to see Lord Lei." ”

Ying Lei said: "General Bi, please get up." Quickly open the city gate and arrange for the soldiers to put out the fire. ”

"Order!" Since it was Shadow Lei who came in person, Bi Mingda no longer hesitated.

As the rope twisted, the gates of Qianyang City rumbled open.

The herald, who had been paying close attention to the movements in the city, hurriedly reported to Yu Chun Yujun. Chun Yujun guessed in his heart that it should be Ying Lei's success, and immediately ordered the whole team to enter the city.

He Shaoyuan's official robe was blackened by smoke, his eyebrows and beard were curled by the fire, and he was hissing and directing in the fire. The fire was too fierce for the water dragon to have little effect, so it had to be covered with sand. Urgently demolish the surrounding houses, so that the fire gradually became devoid of combustion.

At this time, all the soldiers defending the city joined the ranks of fighting the fire, and with the addition of this group of new forces, the fire was finally brought under control and no longer spread.

Seeing this, the people stopped fleeing, as long as they had a choice, who would want to leave their homeland? This was originally their hometown, and the young men settled their wives and children, and also joined the firefighting team.

Chun Yujun led the men and horses into the city, and what he saw was this scene of everyone working together to put out the fire. Shadow Lei stepped forward, told him what had happened, and led Bi Mingda to meet him.

Bi Mingda was worried in his heart, just now he was still leading people to confront this naval governor, I don't know if he will be guilty of rebellion?

Chun Yujun didn't know what he was thinking, the most important thing at the moment was to settle people's hearts, and they could not be regenerated, so he smiled heroically and said: "General Bi, although rest assured, you have been deceived by others, and you have contributed to the city." I will distinguish one or two for you in the recital, and I think it will be worth the merits. ”

Bi Mingda saluted respectfully and said: "The last general will thank Chun Yu Governor first, if there is a send, go all out in the next place!" ”

With such a large number of people entering the city, how could He Shaoyuan not know? But he was on the front line of firefighting, so he had to send Sima to visit him, and Chun Yujun also appeased him.

By the time the fire was extinguished, the sky was white.

Chun Yujun met with He Shaoyuan, who was tired and smoky, and the two discussed and pasted a notice to secure the people, count the grain stocks of the government office, count the houses affected by the fire, and the losses suffered, and resettle the people who had nowhere to live due to the fire.

Fortunately, Qianyang had to rely on the Taishou Mansion to maintain law and order, and the officials of Wang Langzhou Mansion were sound, and with the issuance of the Taoist order, they were afraid that they would be implicated in the rebellion of the King of Qianyang. They all hope that they can save the people, reduce some criminal responsibility, and the state capital will operate with unprecedented efficiency.

Those who counted the roster, counted the losses, set up porridge factories, and arranged temporary shelters were all in full swing.

These livelihood issues are naturally worrying about Bi Mingda, and Chun Yujun is most concerned about the life and death of King Qianyang.

He rode a tall horse with a majestic expression, and led a team of close guards to ride to the Qianyang Palace.

The closer he got, the tighter his brow furrowed. On the outside, you can see the ruins of the raging fire, but the further you go inside, the cleaner it burns. The center of the palace of Qianyang is almost white.

Restraining the horse's head, Ying Lei said: "This position should be the hall of the palace." This is where the fire is kindled. ”

Everyone dismounted, and the guards scattered around to investigate carefully, and Chun Yujun and Ying Lei walked towards the meeting hall.
