Chapter 158: It's Over

Gwangju, near the south gate of Gwangseongseong, the young and strong people gathered around the mountain of materials, loaded them into carriages one by one, and then went out of the city through the south gate, heading towards the Dabie Mountains in the south. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Thanks to the prosperity of the light ecliptic, there are many people who have gathered in the city of light to make a living in recent years, and the caravan starting from Xiyang City of Huangzhou at the southern foot of the Dabie Mountain, after crossing the Dabie Mountain through the light ecliptic, will definitely stop in the city of light.

After entering the boundaries of Gwangju, more than half of the cloth, books, white porcelain and all kinds of sought-after goods produced in Huangzhou will be transshipped in Gwangseong, loaded at the wharf in the south of the city, and then transported to the lower reaches of Huaishui by waterway.

The strong demand for commerce and trade has made the Didian shop in Guangcheng spring up like mushrooms after a rain, so that many people who have no land to cultivate have found a way to make a living, working as a partner in the Didian and restaurant, and working as a coolie at the dock, and can support themselves with wages.

If you dare to take risks, you can also buy goods in Guangcheng and sell them to the surrounding areas to earn some hard-earned money.

The caravans traveling to and from Dabie Mountain through the Guang Zodiac are increasing dramatically, seeing that there are more and more ways to make money, and more and more people are gathering in the Light City to ask for a living, and everyone has a beautiful vision for the future, but at this moment the situation suddenly changed.

The imperial court suddenly mobilized a large army to gather in Guangcheng, divided into five routes to march south, to break through the five passes of Dabie Mountain, and enter the territory of Shannan to crusade against the traitor Yu Wenliang father and son.

Some people went south with the army, and some people stayed in Guangcheng, no matter what kind of placement, it was inevitable to be a coolie, but this is different from normal days, there is no salary to pay, although it is said that food and shelter are managed, but the food will not be much better.

The people who stayed in Guangcheng were not bad, they were nothing more than loading and unloading materials every day, and they could finally recover after sleeping all night after being tired and half dead.

If you are not careful, you have to stay up if you are sick, and if you die unfortunately, you will be buried in the barren mountains and mountains, and your relatives will not even be able to find the grave in the future.

If God bless nothing, when the official army breaks through the five passes of Dabie Mountain and enters the boundary of Huangzhou at the southern foothills, the young and strong people will have to continue to fight with the army, even if they save their lives, it is still unknown when they will be able to come back.

Outside the south gate of the city, a group of coolies who had just finished loading the car, busy sitting on the ground to catch their breath, talking about the current situation, one or two sighed, at the end of last year, the official army went south to attack Chen Guo, they were lucky not to be conscripted into the army, but continued to do coolies in Guangcheng, loading and unloading materials.

At the end of last year, the official army attacked Chen Guo, and Guangcheng was not affected by the war, but it was affected in a blink of an eye.

"The one-legged bronze man is over, Xiyang is over, Xiyang is over, the caravan is gone, there is no caravan, no one will hire us, alas, what will we do in the future?"

A middle-aged man picked his feet and sighed for a long time, and the young coolies sitting around next to him were a little curious: "Old Wu, Xiyang is still that Xiyang, how can he finish with the one-legged bronze man?" ”

The middle-aged man known as Lao Wu asked rhetorically when he heard this: "Do you know what Xiyang was like before?" ”

Seeing that everyone shook their heads, he opened his mouth and said: "In the past, Xiyang was more dilapidated than Guangcheng, and it was not until the one-legged bronze man came to be an official that Xiyang gradually prospered..."

"Without the one-legged bronze man, there would be no Xiyang today, the one-legged bronze man is finished, Xiyang will be finished, all the merchants in the city will be finished, there will be no more caravans to Xiyang, and Guangcheng will no longer need coolies."

"Ahh It turns out that the one-legged bronze man is so powerful..."Everyone sighed as if they didn't understand, as ordinary people, they didn't even know who the parent official of their hometown was, but they all knew that the parent official in Huangzhou was called 'one-legged bronze man'.

The story of the one-legged bronze man and Chen Guo and the king Chen Shuling decisive battle at the top of Xiyang has now been widely spread, as for the name of the one-legged bronze man is "Yuwen Leng" or "Yuwen Hot", there are different opinions.

With the cloth and silk, books, white porcelain and other goods produced in Xiyang sell well all over the world, more and more people are also 'familiar' with Xiyang City, the vast majority of them have not been to Xiyang, but thanks to the boastful talk of merchants from the south to the north, so the situation in Xiyang is like a treasure.

There are shadow puppet shows, big windmills, many ways to make a living, and 'circulation coupons' that use paper instead of money, and there are incredibly many pigs there, and the price of meat is incredibly cheap.

The ham, sausage, and meat floss produced in Xiyang are cheap and taste good, and the coolies have not eaten meat several times a year before, and when they arrive in Guangcheng, they can eat a few bites from time to time with their meager income.

Many people are brewing to go through the ecliptic to cross the Dabie Mountain and go to Xiyang City, the lair of the one-legged bronze man in the story, to beg for a life and improve their family situation, but now, everything has come to naught.

The officials and soldiers went south in five ways, and the momentum was so strong, the coolies in Guangcheng saw it with their own eyes, and no one thought that the Huangzhou Governor's Mansion could withstand it, so the one-legged bronze man was finished this time, and the one-legged one was also finished.

However, it is said that the one-legged bronze man is now far away in Lingbiao, and he can probably escape the catastrophe, but Huangzhou is definitely over, Xiyang is also over, and everyone's dream has come to naught.

If Xiyang falls, there will be no more caravans, and the prosperity of Guangcheng will never return, and everyone will not have a good time in the future, so they have to make plans in advance and go elsewhere to seek a living.

In the midst of his sighs, the overseer came running over waving a stick: "Plague rammed! If you don't pay attention, you will dare to be lazy, and you won't get up and work quickly! ”

Scolding and scolding, the southern official road was dusty, it seemed that there were cavalry approaching Guangcheng, it seemed that I don't know which way the messenger sent back by the soldiers and horses, the coolies hurriedly dodged on both sides of the road, lest they be knocked down by the horses and lose their lives in vain.

The cavalry was getting closer and closer to Huangshui, and the first person was holding a large flag, but the flag was a little special, it was a white cloth, which seemed to be densely covered with words, and the cavalry kept shouting something.

Stepping onto the river bridge, the horses slowed down, and the people on both sides of the road heard the cavalry shouting: "Great victory, great victory!" The official army broke through the Muling Pass and attacked Menglang City! ”

It turned out to be Lubu Feijie, and everyone suddenly realized that they had little knowledge, and they had not had many opportunities to see what Lubu Feijie was like before, but some people wondered if there were too many cavalry to report the victory.

Although it was a matter of time before the officers and troops broke through the five passes, many people were still a little embarrassed when the news really came.

"Oh, the official army has broken through the five passes and has taken Nandingzhou, Huangzhou is about to end, and Xiyang is also finished."
