In the east of Mayi City, in the backyard of a green building.

Liu Wuzhou, the lieutenant of Mayi County, waited for his bloodshot eyes to walk around the room.

He hadn't closed his eyes for two days, but he didn't feel sleepy at all, because his mood was in a state of euphoria, and it was a life-and-death season for him.

Survive it, Mayi County, well, at least Mayi County is what he Liu Wuzhou said, he wants to cut off the head of Wang Rengong's old horseman, and those bastards who look down on him and oppose him will be in a different place.

I can't stand it, everything is not tied.

How could he still sleep peacefully at such a time?

Moreover, Wang Rengong sent people to order him to go to the county guard mansion to do important things, but when he was not found, he sent people all over the city to search for his henchmen, and he was obviously aware of the crisis.

Yes, it's time to get to the end of it.

At this time, the chessboard was already full of chess pieces, and Liu Wuzhou, who was good at hiding in the shadows, made good use of his identity as a local snake, evading the pursuit from the Taishou Mansion in Mayi City, and continued to drop chess pieces step by step through his cronies' minions.

The current Mayi City, under the game of the two military and political leaders of Mayi, is already panicked and in danger.

Liu Wuzhou is not very comfortable, he has been chasing around like a mouse for the past few days.

And as time went by, Wang Rengong and others became more and more uncomfortable, Wang Rengong spent half a year to isolate Liu Wuzhou from the Mayi officialdom, but now, the entire city seems to be isolating the Mayi officialdom.

The hungry people, who had endured a winter, slowly began to be full of hostility towards the people in the government under the instigation of rumors. Clashes continue to occur all over the city.

When Taishou Wang Rengong started, he was quite methodical. Moreover, he still has a lot of certainty. It's even nice to see that happen.

Because it was he who forced Liu Wuzhou to such an embarrassing point, and now there is only one last step left.

As long as Liu Wuzhou is caught, then the charge of inciting the people can be directly detained on his head, and there is no need to send Jinyang to him, he will directly kill Liu Wuzhou and let everything settle down.

But now that Liu Wuzhou is gone, the city is becoming more and more chaotic, and the fierce folk customs of Mayi City are undoubtedly revealed at this time. Gangs of neighbors.

Some guarded their own territory, some looted, and some simply gathered together and began to stare back and forth at several granaries in Mayi.

The operation of the county guard office also gradually came to a standstill, and the natives of Mayi City, especially the lower-level officials, complained more and more about the county guard.

And they were most worried about the safety of their families, so they ran back one after another. Guarding the door to his house.

The city of Mayi is rapidly descending into anarchy.

Wang Rengong also wanted to hold the Mayi defenders who were gradually approaching him in his hands, of course, he had also led the troops to fight, and he didn't have much hope for the current Mayi defenders.

Really. The defenders of Mayi, who had been half-dead and half-alive, were like a plate of scattered sand.

What was even more terrifying was that several generals in the army who had already walked a few laps in front of him were shouting one after another. Hurry up and open the warehouse to release the grain, otherwise. Even if you pile mountains of grain in front of the soldiers, it is useless.

It's the truth. The soldiers also have families and children to feed, and the county guard has been guarding the granary, and they are just hungry and full, but their families are already hungry and can't stand it.

Moreover, the city was in turmoil, and the soldiers were also panicked, and most of them wanted to run home to take a look.

At this point, the contest between Liu Wuzhou and Wang Rengong has been completely concentrated in a few Ma Yi big warehouses.

And for both of them, there is actually no choice.

Taishou Wang Rengong didn't dare to open a warehouse to release grain, there was not much grain in the granary of Mayi, and opening the warehouse would be useless, and it was likely to immediately provoke a riot, so that the people who did not grab the grain would point the finger at the county government.

Liu Wuzhou had no choice, he could only take advantage of the situation, put grain on the people, and then seek other things.

In fact, the final decision of the joint lies only in the age of the two people.

Wang Rengong is old, and he can no longer put himself in danger and personally appease the generals and officials, and even under the hard work, his footprints can no longer reach the county government.

And Liu Wuzhou is in the prime of life, under the energetic commander, and is ready to go to the key point at any time.

In this way, the confidence they each gave to their subordinates was completely different, which was the key to success or failure, if Wang Rengong was ten years younger, he would not give Liu Wuzhou such an opportunity.

But now, in just a few days, the advantage has become a disadvantage, and the disadvantage is about to turn into a collapse, and many people have realized that the civil uprising is coming.

As a result, the number of people who went to the county government to ask for orders quickly became fewer, and in the eyes of many people, Wang Rengong, who was dying and decrepit, was not a trustworthy official.

Instead of tying up with him and accepting the wrath of the people all over the city, it is better to go back quickly and guard the walls of his house.

In the back house of the county guard's mansion, Wang Rengong, the Taishou of Mayi, wore a cloak, looked at the old tree in the courtyard attentively, the coughing sound had been accompanying him, and his body was also trembling in the spring cold.

He had already felt the smell of death, and at this time, no one knew what the old man was thinking, only he knew that they didn't think about the chaos in Mayi, nor did they think about how hateful the Mayi lieutenant he brought from the Eastern Capital was.

What appeared in front of his eyes was the blue sky and clear water of his hometown, the green mountains and mountains, thinking of those childhood playmates, and the delicate face of his old wife who had passed away for many years on the wedding night.

Immediately, he bent down in pain, coughed violently for a while, straightened up and waved away the old servant who had come up to beat his back.

Wheezing and ordered: "Go, tell Wang Sheng that they don't have to guard the county guard's mansion, go and open the gates of the four cities, so that they don't have to come back, they all go home." ”

"Well, tell them that they don't have to come to see me, my family is handed over to them, and if they can keep my family safe, they are loyal, and they don't have to wait for death here together......"

"Go."

The old servant stopped talking, and finally turned around and left.

Soon, the old servant turned around, followed by two tall guards, and stood silently not far away.

Wang Rengong took a look and didn't say anything, at this time, the people who could still stay by his side must have already saved their will to die, and they must have understood that they would no longer fight their way out of the chaotic army and escort him out like they did back then.

"Master, it's cold here, your body is ...... Let's go in and rest. ”

Wang Rengong smiled and didn't speak.

The old servant said again, "The master of the family has made countless people alive, and there will be blessings in the future...... Like that Liu Wuzhou, he is good at stirring up chaos, and then there will be countless deaths and injuries in the city, and after the death of this thief, he will be set to hell, and he will not be able to live forever. ”

Obviously, the old servant hated Liu Wuzhou to the core, and he didn't forget to issue a vicious curse when he was about to leave.

Wang Rengong laughed, followed by a series of coughs.

"Don't laugh at it, it's just a matter of becoming a king and losing...... You go again, go and tell Chen Dalang, let him lead the troops back to Yanmen, don't be trapped in the city, go back and tell Brother Chen Xian, Wang Yuan really feels his kindness, many years of friendship, there is no way to repay, I just hope he can judge the situation, don't learn from me, and think about saving the building in the general ......"

Wang Rengong is already arranging the aftermath, the general trend has gone, and the deserted county government is proof of this.

Opening the four gates is just to give some people who are willing to go out of the city a way to live, the riots in the city together, who dies and who lives, it depends on the will of God, the red-eyed mobs, what will they do, Wang Rengong is not unseen.

In his opinion, it is a mess that does not win or lose.

After the riots, what will be left in the city? Liu Wuzhou's generation will definitely gather Ding Zhuang and start the war again, and the chaotic army will be born from this.

As a vassal of a place, he Wang Rengong can be described as a failure, he is sorry for the king's trust, and he is sorry for the people of this place, and in his concept, it is not interesting to live.

This is a loyal minister, there is sadness, but it is not without respectability, as the last ember of the Great Sui, it is also about to be extinguished.

At this time, Liu Wuzhou, the lieutenant of Mayi, and the desolate Wang Rengong were just the opposite.

His right-hand man Huang Ziying finally came to him, and told him with excitement on his face that the big thing was that night, it was better to raise fire, rushed into the county guard's mansion, killed Wang Rengong's old horseman, and turned his head to gather the crowd with Wang Rengong's head, and surrounded and annihilated the Yanmen defenders scattered in several large warehouses in the city.

Hearing the news, Liu Wuzhou immediately dressed up neatly, and he was very willing to personally take people to the county guard mansion to see what Wang Rengong looked like when he was dying.

Is it to kneel on the ground and beg for mercy with weeping bitterly, or to scold endlessly and die a fiercer death?

That's no difference, with a swing of the knife, the old man who was once high above and didn't put him in his eyes can only fall to the ground with his head and die on the ground.

Then, another person came to report that the four gates of the city of Mayi were being opened.

At this time, Liu Wuzhou was a little anxious, was Wang Rengong going to escape?

Then another person who was staring at the granary came to report that the soldiers Wang Rengong had borrowed from Yanmen had given up guarding the granary and were gathering.

Liu Wuzhou was a little panicked, this is obviously different from his script, is this going to guard the county government? Or escort the old man to escape from Yanmen?

Either way, he really can't stop it now.

The chaotic Mayi City, which was tossed by Wang Rengong and Liu Wuzhou, fell into a very strange calm at this moment, when a group of people tentatively entered the granary and pried open the barn door......

The whole city of Mayi went crazy, and the people didn't care what the two of them had, they only knew that the door of the granary had been opened, and grabbing grain was what they wanted to do most now. (To be continued.) )
