Chapter 240: A Wise Choice
"What are you doing with me today?"
It was already late at night, and Tianming sat aside and yawned.
Gu Nan sat cross-legged on the couch and looked at the two people in front of him, and finally looked at Gai Nie and asked.
Gai Nie picked up a glass of water, put it to his mouth and blew it, and the warm water vapor was blown away.
He seemed to be thinking about what to say, and he didn't drink the water, but just put the glass back on the table.
"Senior sister, I came today to persuade senior sister to leave the Qin Kingdom."
The water vapor drifted away under the withered old tree, Gu Nan raised his eyebrows lightly and asked, "Oh, why?" ”
"Senior sister, you should have already seen the world of this Qin country, why bother with it?"
Ganie asked calmly.
The people's livelihood is not good, and the sky will be in chaos.
A gust of evening wind blew, but Tianming suddenly smelled a faint fragrance blowing from in front of him.
His expression was in a trance, he seemed to have smelled this smell, and his memory was under a flower tree, a person blocked the rain for him, and his body was very fragrant, it was this shallow fragrance.
didn't wait for the dawn to think of that person, but the person in front of him had already spoken.
Gu Nan shook his head: "It's impossible for me to leave." ”
"Why?" Gai Nie was puzzled, and neither did he.
"Xiao Nie." Gu Nan looked at Gai Nie with a smile and asked, "I don't know if that old ghost has taught you something." ”
"Master?" Gai Nie seemed to remember something, and looked at the sword in his hand: "What's the matter?" ”
"Obsession."
Gu Nan said quietly, looking up at the dead tree.
It was as if the dead tree was in the middle of spring, pulling out green branches and new shoots, stained with the warm sunlight.
She narrowed her eyes as if she was comfortable, and then smiled: "This is where my lifelong obsession lies." ”
······
In a city in the middle of the country.
In front of the city gate at night, there was a faint light of fire, and a group of people dressed as civilians stood there.
Some of them were holding farm tools, some of them were holding some broken blades, and some were even just holding a wooden stick, and they looked like there were about a thousand people.
The people in the procession looked a little apprehensive, until one of them stood up and shook his torch at the city.
Someone above the city must have seen the fire, but the gates slowly opened.
"Break the city, take the grain!"
The man standing in front whispered.
The two words made the eyes of many of the thousands of people behind him firm, showing ruthlessness, and then said: "Break the city and take the grain." ”
They need to eat, they need food, or they, the people in their household, will starve to death.
In the city, a team of full-time soldiers is patrolling.
The leader of the team stood in front of the team with a long ge, looked at the team behind him seriously, and said.
"Be careful, the above has commanded that the cities everywhere may not be peaceful these days. The regular army stationed in various places was added, and if there was any chaos, it was suppressed in time, and there was another reward. ”
The voice is not heavy, but the meaning inside is clear.
The group of soldiers behind him, hearing the words "Another Reward", their eyes lit up, and they nodded and said, "I know." ”
They were all regular soldiers, recruited from all over the country and stationed here. For these local people, if they dare to cause trouble, they will not show mercy.
Suddenly, there was a chaotic sound of people on the road ahead, as well as firelight, and people shouted, breaking the city and taking food.
The team leading the line was frowning and raising their hands.
The soldiers behind him also grabbed the blades in their hands.
Soon, the voice was near, and it was a group of civilians with torches and farm tools, rushing towards the city.
"This." The team was stunned, looking at nearly a thousand people at a glance.
It's all chaos people, how did they enter the city without being discovered?
Damn, did they buy off the soldiers who defended the city?
There were only a few dozen soldiers in the team, but there were very few in front of thousands of people.
"Team up, what should I do?"
A soldier asked, looking at the thousand people who were getting closer and closer.
The leading team suddenly saw that the group of rebels was still followed by some people, wearing the clothes and armor of the city guards.
It seems that other soldiers are chasing after this rebel, and there are quite a few of them.
There was a bit of joy on his face, and he shouted: "Brother in the back, I'm waiting to help you!" ”
He didn't expect that the garrisons in a city were in addition to the soldiers and regular soldiers who had been formally trained.
Nearly half of them were young men recruited from the countryside near the city.
They served in nearby cities for only one month of the year, and spent the rest of the year working as farmers at home, with no formal training.
Essentially, they are the people of the neighborhood.
Many of the people in the vicinity have their family members, and the lack of food for the people in the vicinity also means that their families will not be able to eat after they go back.
In such a general, the people are in turmoil, who do they help?
The patrol sergeant standing in front of the rebels was preparing to move.
But when the rebels really approached, they realized that the soldiers in the armor of the city guards who followed the rebels did not seem to be suppressing the rebels at all, but helping the rebels to rush into the city.
The team looked at the team that was getting closer and closer, and swallowed.
Suddenly he turned around and shouted after the chaotic people: "Break the city, take the food!" ”
Lost in the ranks.
The light of day dawned.
In that city, it had been broken, the head of the defender was cut off, and the Qin flag on the city was cut off.
The captured soldiers were tied up and stripped of their armor and blades.
The rebels opened the granaries in the city and looted what little grain they had left.
I don't know who, but the first one opened the door of the people who lived in the city, and began to grab it, and then everyone began to grab it.
There was chaos in the city, and there were wails, howls, and laughter.
At the head of the city, a man in a robe stood with his sword in his hand.
This general's robe was taken off from the body of the city guard, and it was still stained with blood, and he did not shy away from it.
A man dressed in the clothes of a lieutenant general walked up from under the city, stood beside him and said, "General, what should I do if the surplus food in the city is only enough for the army to eat for a while?" ”
The man's face sank, and then he let go: "Call for rebellion, let the hungry people of the world come and take the city." ”
"General, what's the call?" The adjutant asked with a frown.
"Simple." The man in the armor smiled and looked at the dawn and said.
"Qin Zheng has no way, and the sky will die!"
The lieutenant took a deep breath and bowed: "Yes!" ”
He said and retreated.
Only that one person was left standing at the head of the city, looking at the Qin Banner on the ground.
"Princely generals, would you rather have a kind?"
······
In a mansion, there was a man in a green shirt sitting in the hall, who looked middle-aged, but his eyebrows were delicate, but he was a little younger.
A man in a robe walked out of the back room, wearing a purple belt around his waist, and bowed to the green-shirted man in the hall.
"Mr. Zhang Liang."
The man in green shirt, who was called Zhang Liang, stood up with a smile and saluted the people in the hall.
"Childe."
