Anseong, a small city on the south bank of the Yangtze River, has a population of no more than 30,000.

Without the grace and nobility of Mocheng, nor the domineering incomparable of Yanjing, it stands quietly by the Yangtze River.

However, the existence of Anseong cannot be ignored because Anseong is weak!

Because of its proximity to the Yangtze River, there are suitable for ships to dock, Anseong is a very important ship dock on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and the most ideal place for ships to come from the north bank of the Yangtze River is Anseong!

If it weren't for Cai Guo's national policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business, Ancheng would have become a relatively wealthy city on the Yangtze River!

However, despite the suppression of commercial development by Cai Guo, Anseong's commercial trade is still very developed, and it is unceremonious to say that Anseong, with its good geographical advantages, has become one of the important places connecting the north and south of the Yangtze River.

The whole city, developed in trade, extends in all directions, has eight city gates, leading to east, west, north and south directions.

When Lin Feng took the iron horse and broke into the city, the commerce in the city became slightly depressed due to the change of ownership of the city, but when he walked into the streets of the city, he could still see many merchants coming and going from south to north on the streets, carrying goods and going south and north.

It's a lively scene!

At noon, the streets were lively, because many merchants heard that Emperor Yan would enter the city immediately, and Yan General Feng Shihu was leading Yan out of the city to greet him.

Everyone is ready to take advantage of the opening of the eight gates of Anseong and quickly evacuate Anseong.

It is rumored that Emperor Yan recently led his troops to kill all sides in the south of Ancheng, severely damaging the Vietnamese troops! They were afraid that Emperor Yan would be angry and implicated!

Soon, however, there was a commotion in the streets, the sound of rumbling horses' hooves came from the south gate, and the iron horsemen blocked the main street in the middle of the city.

In the panic, the people still witnessed with their own eyes that Lin Feng was riding a war horse under the strict protection of the iron horse.

The black cloak had long been thrown away, and the black armor and black shirt were crumpled by bloodstains, which was very unsatisfactory, but it invisibly proved that he had just experienced a bloody battle!

The people on both sides of the street looked horrified, and hurriedly got up and saluted, as if they were afraid that they would be killed on the spot if they delayed the slightest.

It is rumored that Emperor Yan personally led more than 1,000 iron horsemen to defeat 60,000 Vietnamese troops and kill Zhang Yuting, a famous general of Yue State!

Emperor Yan is fierce and Yan Qi is fierce, causing a lot of panic in the southern land, and now where Yan Qi appears, it will always be shrouded in the shadow of fear.

"Your Majesty, Ancheng has changed hands and become depressed, and the number of merchants in the city today has decreased by almost half compared with the previous two days, when the last general led troops into the city!" Riding a war horse and shuttling through the streets of the city, Feng Shihu followed Lin Feng closely and couldn't help but sigh!

"Really?" Lin Feng frowned, raised his eyebrows, and subconsciously asked.

The streets are prosperous, in Lin Feng's opinion, Ancheng is prosperous enough, but Feng Shihu said that it is not more than half before the city is broken, and the war has a great impact on the merchants who come and go from all directions.

Perhaps the merchants who traveled south and north in Ancheng did not understand the policy of Dayan, so they had a misunderstanding of Dayan.

"That's right, the last general will not dare to deceive the emperor!" Feng Shihu clenched his fists and cut the railway.

Hearing the sound, Lin Feng looked up at the merchants on all sides of the street, and from the expressions of the people, he saw the slightest panic, and many people even packed their bags, as if they had the intention of leaving Ancheng.

Riding a war horse, he walked to the square in the center of the city, Lin Feng said to Feng Shihu: "General Feng, strive to bring everyone in the city, including merchants, to the square, I have something to say." ”

"Your Majesty, Ancheng is in chaos, the last general guesses, there are still killer assassins lurking, the last general suggests, the emperor has a policy announcement, it is better to make a paper, post notices all over the city, so that the emperor can also express his intentions, and also ensure the emperor's safety!" Feng Shihu looked stunned, and in a trance, he guessed Lin Feng's thoughts, and couldn't help but propose cautiously.

"It's okay, the trip to the south, I haven't experienced any danger!" Lin Feng waved his hand, not caring about it!

Feng Shihu was helpless and nodded to Cao Aman, who quickly ordered the guards to protect the surroundings of the square to ensure the emperor's safety!

........

Han Fugui is a merchant from Shu, a few days ago, chartered a ship carrying goods, along the Yangtze River south, from Shu to Ancheng, unexpectedly, there was a war in Ancheng.

Had to stay in Anseong for three days.

Han Fugui is cautious, and he is also very careful in business, according to his character, if he knew in advance that Ancheng had fallen and fallen into the hands of the Yan army, he would not have gone south along the Yangtze River!

Delay the delivery, or change the route, climb over the Sword Pavilion, and enter the hinterland of Cai State.

During the three days in Ancheng, he often heard the sound of rumbling horses' hooves in the city, and Han Fugui only felt as if a drum was beating on his heart!

After three days of hard work, he lived like a year, as if he had been imprisoned in Ancheng for three years, for fear of an accident.

Fortunately, in the city, it was taken over by the Yan army, and the Yan cavalry killed a group of assassin killers, a bully in the city, and the order in the city quickly stabilized, and there were no accidents.

However, Han Fugui went south and north, heard that the Yan army was cruel, and he also knew that at the beginning of spring, the southern army's northern expedition failed, and Dayan became the overlord of the north.

Ancheng fell into the hands of the Yan army, and he was afraid that the Yan cavalry would burn and loot in the city like the army that broke through the city in the south, or set heavy taxes in the court.

Therefore, when he learned that Emperor Yan had entered the city and the eight gates in the city were opened, he hoped to quickly lead the caravan, leave Ancheng early, and go south as soon as possible!

Completely avoid the caravan accident in Ancheng, or, Emperor Yan ordered to block the city gate and take revenge on the people of the south.

Under a tea stall, a man in a long robe looked rich, his name was Li Changgui, and he was also a businessman.

However, Li Changgui is from the Chu State, and this time, he personally carried a large number of goods from the Chu State and traveled to the Yan State under the starry night, preparing to buy live creatures to Dayan and make a huge profit.

When the caravan of hundreds of people arrived in Anseong, they also encountered war and were blockaded in the city!

For a moment, he became panicked in his heart, and recently Da Chu launched hundreds of assassins from all his sons and assassins from various vassal states, assassinating Emperor Yan one after another.

He went to Dayan many times, and he knew very well that Emperor Yan was a person, and he also knew that Dayan's policy towards merchants was very good, however, this time the situation was special, he was very worried that Emperor Yan would anger the merchants of Chu State and treat people from Chu State as killer assassins, and hunt them all down!

Therefore, when he heard that the city gate was open at noon, he hoped to take this opportunity to leave Anseong quickly.

............

In Ancheng, many merchants who traveled from south to north basically had the same thoughts as Han Fugui and Li Changgui when Ancheng was lost and fell to Dayan.

Revenge, for fear of thunderous retaliation from the Great Yan Emperor!.

Although many of these merchants have carried goods to the north many times, the situation is in crisis, and the southern princes annoy the emperor of Dayan, no matter how tolerant and open Dayan is, I am afraid that it will also cause Emperor Yan's anger.

Knowing that Emperor Yan had entered the city, the eight gates were opened, and many merchants packed up early and prepared to evacuate Ancheng!

At this time, in the middle of the street, there was a galloping iron horseman, and while galloping, he shouted: "Merchants from the south to the north, gather in the square, and the emperor has a policy announcement." ”

Hundreds of iron horsemen shuttled through the streets and alleys of Anseong, as if they wanted to spread the emperor's orders to all corners of Anseong.

Many businessmen who wanted to leave Ancheng in a hurry, especially Li Changgui and Han Fugui, businessmen from the south who were afraid that the emperor of their respective countries would offend Emperor Yan, were more and more ready to leave Ancheng quickly!

At this time, the news came out, causing many businessmen to be confused, shocked, and confused, and they couldn't guess what Emperor Yan meant!

Fortunately, the Iron Cavalry only publicized the order and did not force everyone, and there was no bloodshed in the city.

Even though the city gate was opened, no one dared to venture out of the city, after all, no one knew what the purpose of Emperor Yan when he summoned everyone to the city square!

Whether it was a temptation, no one knew whether it would be captured and killed if he ventured out of the city, it was difficult to predict.

For a while, merchants from all over the city went to the square in the center of the city with apprehension, unwillingness, and reluctance.

In the square in the city, Lin Feng was still riding on his war horse, waiting patiently!

Merchants appeared one after another, and many people gradually gathered in the square, and Lin Feng, who was standing on the high platform of the square, was always smiling.

At noon, more than 2,000 people gathered in the square, with different identities, merchants, rangers, Confucian scholars, swordsmen, tenant farmers, long-term workers, and many people who passed by or lived in Anseong, reluctantly appeared near the square.

Seeing Lin Feng standing on the high platform, dressed in a military uniform, with a large area of congealed blood on his armor, everyone in the square couldn't help but shudder!

Killing gods, rumors from all over the south are true, Emperor Yan is really defeating the Vietnamese army!

If the Yue army had not been defeated, and seeing the smell of blood on Emperor Yan's body, the other party might have just come down from the battlefield.

Gathered in the square, it is difficult to predict what Emperor Yan has in mind and what attitude he will treat everyone.

In the midst of everyone's doubts, muttering, and speculation, on the high platform, Lin Feng coughed lightly twice, swept his eyes at the people gathered in the square, cleared his throat and said, "Today, do you want to know why I summoned everyone here?"

To be honest, the people present, regardless of their status, passers-by, or people who have lived in Ancheng for a long time, all want to know Lin Feng.

Ancheng changed hands, and Emperor Dayan made his first appearance in Ancheng, and his attitude today may represent the future attitude of Yan to the southern princes and people.

Hearing Lin Feng's inquiry, the square was quiet, and everyone wanted to know the identity of Emperor Yan, but they didn't dare to come forward to ask.

In the square, there was silence for a while, and Lin Feng continued to say aloud: "No matter what thoughts everyone has in mind, but, rest assured, today, I will never embarrass everyone, let alone kill anyone, this is the case today, and it will be the same in the future." ”

"As the saying goes, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, and the enmity between me and the southern vassal states has nothing to do with the kings of the vassal states, and has nothing to do with all of you present. If anyone here is panicked, they must have chased and killed me before, they don't do anything bad on weekdays, and they are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door at night, so those who have not murdered me will definitely not be afraid in their hearts. Lin Feng smiled, although he was wearing a bloody armor, there was no murderous aura on his body.

The people in the square, hearing Lin Feng's words, couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief!

Everyone is just an ordinary businessman, how could they have thought of killing for money, let alone murdering Emperor Yan and killing him.
