Chapter 1271: Punishment Dropped

In one fell swoop, the alliance between the church and some nobles was broken, and the opposition was almost wiped out only through the rat area, and after dawn, the people of Kiev were panicked, and the nobles in the city were even more noisy, and the patrolmen were frightened at the slightest move. The reality of the situation did not allow them to be afraid, in just two hours, the city patrol soldiers blocked the streets everywhere, many familiar nobles in the city were arrested, the eastern soldiers did things vigorously, not giving people a chance to breathe at all, many nobles were blocked with their families, and none of them ran away. The Kiev aristocracy does not have a fuel-efficient lamp, they have run the city of Kiev for generations, each has its own news channels, and after hearing that some people and the church have jointly rebelled, they can't help but scold, isn't this a pit person, if it succeeds, it's okay, but just at the beginning, it was found out by the Orientals and wiped out. In the eyes of the Easterners, the Kiev aristocracy is a grasshopper on a rope, and if something like this happens, who can guarantee that they will not be implicated? This guy Yakorov is not enough to succeed and more to lose, even if he defends the rights and interests of the church, he can't be so anxious.

The Kiev aristocracy is uneasy, but the situation in the Teginets estate is different, since the new series of policies was formulated, it is known that there will be opposition, this kind of thing will happen sooner or later, fortunately, the damage is not too great. Although the rat area was burned to rubble and many people died, the patrol soldiers did not suffer many casualties. Regarding Tang Miao's performance, Zhao Yougong did not hesitate to praise, "Yes, you have done a good job, you can find out these troublemakers hidden in the shadows through the rat area, and solve the big trouble for us." Tang Miao, you have to keep an eye on the church and make things bigger, this king hopes to take advantage of this incident to launch a purge of the church in Kipros, at least, from now on, these missionaries don't want to make trouble. ”

"What His Highness said is that the situation of Kiplas is too different from our Great Song Dynasty, in the Great Song Dynasty, although the influence of Buddhism and Taoism is not small, it is far from private soldiers, but Kiplas is different. The subordinate church looked at it, the church not only has its own equipment warehouse, but also has food in stock, raising more than 100 guards, if it is not for us to react quickly enough, once the poor people are in chaos, the church can quickly pull up a chaotic army with these capitals" Tang Miao's expression was solemn, and he was a little afraid in his heart, and when he saw the church warehouse, he knew how capable the church was. It was pure luck to be able to destroy the power of the church in one fell swoop, Yakorov didn't expect to find out about the church so quickly, if Yakorov and the others were prepared, this matter would not be so easy. took out a notebook from his bosom and respectfully handed it to Zhao Yougong, "Your Highness, you can take a look, it records the number of materials stored in the church's warehouse." ”

Zhao Yougong just glanced at it twice, Xiao Zhiyun took it, she looked at it very carefully, almost word by word, the more she looked at it, the more frightened she became, no wonder she had to care about the Hammer Cavalry Regiment or the Holy Cross Knights, both of which had a church background. Without the support of the church, it would not have been able to support such a large cavalry, the church supported the imperial power, and the rulers distributed a part of the tax to the church, and at the same time, the church would also receive supplies from the people in private, so that the church in various places became a very important institution. Hey, Xiao Zhiyun frowned, sighed softly, didn't look at it, didn't know, was startled when she saw it, this so-called church is simply a huge bloodsucking worm, "Official, this church organization should not only suppress, it is best to use some harsh means, since it is a mission, then it is a good mission." However, if we do this, I am afraid that it will cause attacks from Western countries, so let's just do it in a different way, and directly build a new church seminary in the city of Kyiv, and change the rules, so that the Slavic people will be more acceptable, and the Germans and Eastern Romans will not oppose him fiercely. ”

Zhao Yougong looked at Xiao Zhiyun with a smile, and his eyes were quite impressed, "Enough, you want to follow the example of King Yingzheng of Qin and use the Bible for my use." It's a clever tactic, but it's also ruthless enough. ”

"Ruthless? My official, when are you not ruthless" Xiao Zhiyun didn't care, waved her hand and said to Tang Miao, "Tang Miao, this matter will be left to you, within two months, all the priests and priests of the churches in Kipros will go to Kyiv City to be transformed, the church guards will be disbanded, and we will take over the task of protecting the church." As for the new doctrine, find someone to change it, and I believe that this will not be difficult for you. ”

The corners of Tang Miao's mouth twitched, with a strange expression, and he hurriedly answered. Why does Concubine Xiao's words feel weird no matter how you listen to them, is this praising people or hurting people? After Tang Miao retreated, a white figure broke into the hall like a wind, Claire's face was cold, and the dark color was very ugly, "What do you want to do, to dissolve the church, the Lord will condemn you, you, a cultist, will definitely cause public anger." ”

Zhao Yougong happened to be drinking tea, listening to Claire's question, he squirted out, glanced at Claire inexplicably, and said without saltiness, "What master, what God, what does it have to do with this king, they have no problem preaching, but they can only move their mouths and dare to use knives, who will this king kill if he doesn't kill them?" Besides, they preach, and whether the people believe it or not is another matter, okay, don't use this to disgust this king, and then dare to contradict this king, believe it or not, throw you outside? ”

Zhao Yougong's face was a little cold, Claire pouted and straightened her chest, "Others are afraid of you, I'm not afraid of you, don't you just throw it outside, if you have the ability, you can throw it, hum, I don't know the good people's hearts." ”

At this time, Zhao Yougong was stunned, Claire was not afraid. Xiao Zhiyun's face was a little ugly, this Claire, her temperament was too jumpy, she didn't open the house for three days, put down the information in her hand, and said to Sanniang, "Sanniang, it's been so long, how did you train." I'll leave it to you, teach her well, at least know what it means to be inferior and inferior, otherwise, I think we are easy to bully. ”

After that, Xiao Zhiyun got up and walked upstairs, Zhao Yougong was also a little annoyed, so he ignored Claire and went upstairs. Sanniang shrugged her shoulders helplessly, and not long after she disappeared, she brought a whip, and when she saw the whip, as soon as Claire stuck out her tongue, the whole person collapsed, and she whispered as if she was fated, "Sister, let Claire go, I promise that I won't dare next time, this time I was really confused, so I collided with the regent." ”

Sanniang has a good relationship with Claire, but it doesn't mean that she approves of Claire's behavior, the whip trembled, and her eyes snorted gloomily, "Claire, I've told you countless times, you must be clear about your position, there are things that you can't manage, but you always forget." ”

Don't talk about how Sanniang trained Claire, just talk about the matter of the mouse area. Although the church and the rebellious nobles were captured, the poor people in the rat district had no place to live and no food after all, and the city lord's mansion had promised before, but who knows if it was true? Near noon, the central street near Nancheng was crowded with people, all of whom were tiptoeing and talking to each other, their faces were very anxious, "Will the Oriental people be so kind and give us porridge?" It's never been like this before. ”

"Yes, when Grand Duke Yuri was in charge of Kyiv before, it was not so good. In the past, several brothers in my family worked for Grand Duke Yuri, and later Viache occupied Suzdal, and those brothers were all used as domestic slaves and cannon fodder, and none of them survived, so would the Orientals be so kind? "Many poor people in Kiev don't believe it, Kiporos is not a good place for peace and prosperity, when the Eighteen Duchies fought for many years, the victorious people entered the city to burn and loot, it would be good if they didn't kill the poor, who would share the porridge for the poor? Even the high Church only preaches, and never distributes rice to the poor when they are in need.

The poor people of Kiev are mostly skeptical, but they have to come, this is their last hope, if the Easterners do not keep their promise, they will only starve. When you really can't do it, you can only grab it. As long as they live, no one wants to go down this path, and the fate of the church and those rebels is at hand, and no one knows the end of the rebellion. When everyone was worrying, a few gongs sounded, a group of guards separated the crowd, and several carts carrying many wooden barrels to the central street, the poor people immediately became excited, they could smell the aroma of rice porridge emitted from the wooden barrels, several lean men swallowed saliva and rushed up, everyone did the same, wanted to snatch the porridge in the bucket empty, just now there were signs of commotion, the city patrols on both sides directly slashed at the poor people who rushed up, so after hacking more than 20 people, the scene was controlled, several translators hurriedly shouted, " Don't mess around, line up one by one, don't worry, you can get enough porridge. If anyone breaks the rules, it doesn't matter if they are killed, you have seen the fate of those people just now, don't mess around. ”

Through the efforts of the interpreters, the scene gradually became orderly, and the poor people no longer dared to make trouble. At the back of the queue were somewhat worried, but when the bowl was filled with porridge, that worry was swept away. Compared with the benevolence of the Orientals, the shamelessness of the church was even more apparent, and after a few bowls of porridge, the poor people who were taken over by the city lord's mansion began to act according to the plan. A thin poor man like a bamboo pole patted his stomach and sighed with a full face, "It is said that the Oriental people are like demons, but now it seems that the rumors may not be true, if it is not the Oriental people, we will be hungry." Anyway, no matter what happens to others, Lao Tzu will follow the Orientals in the future. The people in the church are a bunch of liars who have done so many dirty things in the name of God, and I wonder if the so-called God exists or not. ”

If you want to change it to normal times, whoever dares to say such a thing will be sure to be beaten to death, and the crazy parishioners will not be able to do anything. But now, everyone is hungry, and they don't care what faith or God. Everyone is an ordinary person, many times the dream will be defeated by eating, thinking of the benefits of rice porridge, the sense of identity with the Oriental people is deepening, even if the rat area is not burned, they may not be able to drink rice porridge, "Yes, the people in the church are all liars, our family has done a lot of things for the church over the years, and in the end, these days they will burn our houses and kill our people." ”

The dissatisfaction of a few people slowly turned into excitement. The power of faith is very strong, but sometimes it is also fragile, and in front of the meal, the people reach out together to push that faith down. The stomach was full, the heart was full, someone took the lead, and the people of Kiev gathered in the streets to demand severe punishment for the priests and bishops. Of course, Tang Miao would not let go of this good opportunity, and immediately asked people to drag Yakolov and other church personnel to the street, poor Yakolov did not die in the hands of the Dingguo Army, but was beaten into meat cakes by the crazy parishioners. Tang Miao, the intelligence chief, usually studies this kind of demagogic means, and when the people finished venting, he directly stood on the high platform, holding a loudspeaker in his hand and shouting, "People in Kiev City, see it, when you are starving, who is saving you?" It's the regent. What about the church? What about God? What about your Lord? Wake up, it is you who can determine the future, our future has no God, there is no Lord, we believe in freedom, we believe in life. ”

"Yes.... We believe in freedom, God can't control us" The crowd echoed and gradually turned into a carnival, a historic moment for the city of Kyiv and for the whole of Kipoula, where the Church would no longer have a high status. Tang Miao looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction, this is just the beginning, waiting for the seminary to be established and directly evolve the church organization into a peaceful organization.

What happened in the city of Kyiv is simply a miracle, it can be said that both the Eastern Roman and the old Duke of Saxony in the Holy Empire once wanted to weaken the influence of the Church. More than ten years ago, Lothair reduced his support for the Church on the grounds of excessive taxes, but the Church directly guided public opinion, coupled with the influence of the Knights of the Church, Lothair's Duchy of Saxony almost rioted, and finally had to choose to compromise. The situation like Kipros is irreproducible, because many things in Kipros have been almost destroyed, and the foundation of the Orientals is not in Kipros, so they dare to take drastic measures against the church, even if it is to tear down and rebuild.

Of course, such a big thing happened in Kyiv City, naturally it was impossible to hide it, and the noble lords around Kyiv City were all stunned, and dared to attack the church, the Orientals were really crazy. What left them speechless the most was that the Slavic people around them did not react, as if nothing had happened, and all kinds of strange things appeared one after another.

A few days later, Zhao Yougong personally came to the mouse district, and he personally promised not only to rebuild the mouse area, but also to build a commercial market in the mouse area, and to build this place into the most prosperous area of Kiev City in the future. After the news broke, the nobles of the city of Kiev could not sit still, the rat district was not worth much before, it was because of the mess. Now to build the largest business district, where the lot is not expensive? As a result, the nobles began to find ways to buy up the land in the rat area, and the money was used to rebuild the rat area and the trade area.

Chapter 1022 Meaningless Resistance

In the beautiful manor, the flowers are full of flowers, the scenery is beautiful, and a pergola is built next to the pool, and Zhao Yougong is half-lying on the cushion, tasting grape wine. The city of Kiev has settled down, and Xiao Zhiyun's idle days are over, leading people to Vladimir. Although there are Gao Zhong and Shi Wengong on the periphery of Vladimir, it is not enough. In contrast, it is better for Xiao Zhiyun to sit on the battlefield of Vladimir, which is not only safe, but also a kind of cherishment. Whether it is Zhao Yougong or Xiao Zhiyun, in fact, they all have an idea, that is, if they can not fight, they will not fight, and it is better to take Vladimir peacefully, this is an ancient city, which is farther away than Kiev. Xiao Zhiyun and others have already regarded Vladimir as their own bag, and if they destroy the city, they will still feel sorry for themselves, after all, rebuilding Vladimir is a huge expense, and this consumption can be saved. What's more, now that Vyache has been killed, there is still a lot of hope for persuading Lovednov to surrender.

Xiao Zhiyun went to Vladimir to be busy, but His Royal Highness Zhao's life was relaxed and comfortable, Sanniang was dressed in a thin white light veil, and she was a little lazy and smelling the fragrance of flowers. There were no others around, his cold face was a little more feminine, and his jade hand teased the fruit plate next to him, "Official, you have a lot of ideas, and I don't know how you came up with it, you can even think of selling land, and the mouse area, which was too lazy to look at it, has actually become a fragrant dumpling." ”

"What's so strange about that? The world is more profit-seeking, and those Kiev nobles are all smart people, once the trade zone is established, it is impossible for them to lose sight of the future value of the trade zone. Sanniang, you don't touch the things here on weekdays, if the teacher or Yulou is here, they will definitely try their best to persuade the king not to sell the land" Zhao Yougong was in a good mood, and when he relaxed, he was willing to say more. Sanniang listened very carefully, she didn't leave the left and right on weekdays, she didn't know anything about business, seeing Zhao Yougong's vow, a little distressed, and asked suspiciously, "What is the reason, can't you sell it yet?" ”

"Ha" Zhao Yougong pursed his lips, tilted his body, and reached out to touch Sanniang's warm cheek, "Anyway, it's okay left and right, I'll teach you another lesson, official." In Bianliang City, every inch of land on both sides of Bianhe Street is expensive, you should know this, and it is not surprising that it is priceless and marketable. The reason why the land price there is so expensive is not because of the bustling commercial street, the more prosperous, the more flocking to it. There is a special record in Kaifeng Mansion that the place where the Fang Building is located fifty years ago is worth five hundred taels of gold, and now that lot, let alone five hundred taels of gold, is ten thousand taels of gold, and people don't sell it. What if you have money, even if you take out 100,000 taels of gold, people just won't sell it, what can you do, this is priceless. Therefore, the business area of the rat area is also a truth, as long as the news of the construction of the business zone is not fake, at this time to get a piece of land in the rat area, no matter how much money is spent, it is a sure deal. ”

After Zhao Yougong's explanation, Sanniang, a person who is not good at business, also understood, and his expression became colorful, and he thought that those Kiev nobles were a little stupid, but now that he thinks about it, people are not stupid at all, "According to what the officials say, the land in the mouse area will continue to appreciate, these Kiev nobles, no wonder they rushed to buy land, this is simply buying a hen that will lay golden eggs, and if you get a piece of land in the mouse area, future generations will be of infinite use." ”

Sanniang suddenly felt a little lost, Zhao Yougong couldn't see it, hugged Sanniang, and said with a wry smile, "Who said it wasn't?" If it weren't for the urgent need for money, food and materials in their hands, why should they be in a hurry to sell the land, there was no way to do it. ”

Although some unwilling, but everything is worth it, the Kiev nobles enthusiastically donated money and materials, not only to solve the problem of feeding the poor in the mouse area, but also to further enrich the baggage of the Dingguo army. On the side of Heather Farm, Cao Yuan personally escorted grain, grass, cattle and sheep over, and the people of the farm saw countless cattle and sheep and a large amount of grain, and the joy in their hearts was self-evident. This practice quickly won the support of ordinary people, and in at least a dozen villages near Heather Farm, the people thoroughly implemented the decisions of the city of Kiev and began to suppress those church members, saying that they would no longer be fooled by the church. Pity those church members, many of them were beaten up before they could figure out what was going on, not to mention how wronged they were.

Things in the rat area have gradually calmed down, and just when Zhao Yougong thought that the city of Kyiv would be fine, an uninvited guest came to Kyiv. Yang Zaixing returned to Kiev after clearing more than a dozen lords in the west and took on the burden of being the commander of the guards, he also knew that Zhao Yougong had been tired for a long time, and it was rare to have a little leisure, so there was nothing important, and he would not disturb Zhao Yougong to recuperate. Walking through the white marble column, Yang Zaixing was in a hurry, Zhao Yougong was accompanying Sanniang to give Claire a lesson, seeing Yang Zaixing's hurried appearance, he got up and teased, "Shao Lie, why are you in such a hurry, won't there be another Kiev nobleman looking for you to kiss?" ”

When Zhao Yougong said this, even Sanniang's cold temperament couldn't help but roll his eyes. Yang Zaixing was stunned when he heard this, his face suddenly turned red, these days, I don't know what evil the Kiev nobles have fallen into, and they always ask people to talk about matchmaking. In the end, he was forced to have no choice, and tied up a nobleman and whipped more than 20 whips, and this farce came to an end. Because of this incident, he was ridiculed by his colleagues in the army, but as soon as he entered the door today, he heard His Highness talk again, "Your Highness, didn't we say that we would not mention this matter again?" The last general has something important, and Qi Wenhan, who has just been defending the west, sent a message that the duke of the Chechen Kingdom of Kiporos Caucasus has asked to see His Royal Highness. ”

"What? Duke of Kipros? Isn't Viache dead? Zhao Yougong couldn't help frowning, but he was quickly relieved, and it was estimated that someone had taken Viache's place. Not to mention, this guy is really smart, he just said the Duke of Chechnya in the Caucasus, but not the Grand Duke of Kipros, which is a disguised attitude, "Who is it?" It wasn't like Vyache came back from the dead and crawled out of the coffin. ”

Yang Zaixing's eyes were embarrassed, and he opened his mouth without smiling, "How is this possible?" Someone came to report his name, saying that it was Wofrey, the chief of the Golden Light Guard of Viache, who had now been detained by Qi Wenhan, and whether His Highness wanted to see him or not. If His Highness felt that it was unnecessary, the last general would order Qi Wenhan to send this guy away. ”

Yang Zaixing's battlefield murderer has never had a good impression of the people around Viache, so he spoke more fiercely. Zhao Yougong touched his chin and thought about it, only then did he remember who Wofrey was, isn't this the commander of the most powerful guard regiment in the Principality of Turov, I heard that he has a very personal relationship with Vyache and is loyal, why is it that now that Vyache has just died, this hardcore party has run to Kyiv City to show goodwill? Soon, Zhao Yougong figured out the joints, and his fingers tapped on the armrests of the chair, making a slight thumping sound, like people's heartbeats, "Understood, if this king is right, Viache should have died in the hands of Wofrey." If it's really a person, you can't look good, the sea can't fight, people are guests from afar, let him in. This king has the heart to see what kind of character this Wofrey is. ”

Wofrey can be the chief of the Golden Light Guard for more than ten years, and it is by no means a waste of fame, but he has real skills. On the way to Kyiv, Wofrey was a little nervous, he was afraid that the plan would fail and he would be thrown in Kyiv. Hearing that the regent of the East agreed to summon him, he was in a much better mood, and walked along the central street to the familiar Teginets manor, and was full of emotion for a while, the manor was still so grand and beautiful, but the owner was not the original owner. At the beginning, as the chief of the golden light guard, he was also a figure who called for wind and rain. Now, he can only be cautious, for fear that he will make some mistake and his head will be cut off by the guards. On the bluestone road in front of the castle, there were burly soldiers of the Ruifeng Battalion on both sides, some of whom were holding two-handed axes with fierce eyes, staring at Wofrey walking towards the castle step by step. Although Wofrey is the chief of the Golden Light Guard, he knows very well that he really doesn't have such a great ability to step through so many people.

Looking at Wofrey standing in the hall, Wofrey was so cramped and uneasy that he didn't even dare to raise his eyes. Zhao Yougong breathed a long sigh of relief, touched the back of his head and asked slowly, "You are Wofrey?" The Grand Duke Viache was also killed by your own hands, right? I didn't expect that an unkind and unrighteous person like you could come to the city of Kyiv alive, so you are not afraid that this king will kill you?? ”

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, but if the regent insists on saying that the little one is disloyal and unjust, it will be completely slanderous," Wofrey gathered his mood and tried to calm himself, "The little one once persuaded Viache to return to the Caucasus, and from then on put away his great ambitions. But Vyache just didn't listen, he had to take revenge on Kyiv at all costs, there was no way, for the sake of stability in the Caucasus, I could only send him away. Since it is impossible to do anything, it is not worth it to accept your fate, and to bury the lives of the Slavic people in vain. ”

"Oh, so much has happened, so why do you have to come to Kyiv?" Half-convinced of Wofrey's words, Zhao Yougong has suffered too much loss, and it is difficult to be careful, Wofrey thought about it, and said with some hesitation, "I have heard about the recent changes in the city of Kiev, His Royal Highness the Regent also intends to suppress the church, and no longer exterminate the Slavic people, I think, since the regent has no intention of getting involved in the Caucasus, and our people are also unwilling to go to war with the people in the north again, we will not affect each other." The regent can rest assured that as long as the regent promises to sell us a part of the grain and no longer oppress the Caucasus, I will lead the Slavs to defend the Caucasus for the regent. ”

"You don't have to act in front of this king, this king really has no interest in the Caucasus, and we will make a verbal agreement that there will be no problem in mutual non-aggression and to strengthen trade. But there is one point, what about the Germanic people? And what about alliances? Zhao Yougong saw the cattleness between Kipros and the Germans clearly, Wofrey hurriedly waved his hand, and said anxiously, "The previous agreement was an alliance strategy formulated by the Grand Duke of Viache himself, but now that I think about it, Viache is dead, the previous agreement, we don't recognize these things at all, the Germans want to go through the vast jungle to take revenge on us, in the Caucasus, we are not afraid of the Germans." As long as Wofrey is alive for a day, he will defend the Caucasus to the death. ”

It is better to say than to sing, but in fact they are all forced, not to do business with the north, just relying on the harsh environment of the Caucasus, every year without being beaten by others, and many people can starve to death just by starving. On the contrary, an alliance with the Germanic or Eastern Romans would not have reaped these benefits. Of course, Zhao Yougong won't believe Wofrey's nonsense, but it doesn't mean that it can't be used, since Wofrey has prestige, it shouldn't be difficult for him to lead the affairs of the Caucasus, "Okay, this king believes you for the time being, but you remember, if you dare to be half-hearted, your end will not be much better." If the Germans are still courting you, you'd better report it quickly. As for the specific business situation, someone will come to you later. ”

"Thank you, Regent" Wofrey could not hide his joy, this trip was really the right one, although he had informed the Caucasus now, he still lacked prestige and influence, and he desperately needed a legal identity, that is, the Grand Duke of Kipros. Zhao Yougong didn't care about this kind of false name at all. Since Wofrey needs it, he doesn't mind giving Wofrey a little sweetness, and the combination of interests will make the relationship between the two sides stronger.

Wofrey was full of joy, but Lovednov in Vladimir had a bitter face, like a dead father. The Easterners controlled almost the entire Istrian Heights, and now only Vladimir is still resisting stubbornly, and the worst thing is that Viache is also dead until the duke, and Lovednov is like empty. The princess of the East, Xiao Zhiyun, also came outside the city, and Vladimir was in a stormy situation and could collapse at any time. Lovednov was confused and heartbroken, perhaps after the defeat in the battle of the Suzdal River, he should have thought of such a fate. Is there any point in continuing to fight? There is only one Vladimir city, there is too little to do, and at this time Lovednov did not have the vigor of the past, and some were only disheartened. He didn't think about winning now, he just thought about how to find a way out for the people of the city. It was at this time that a letter arrived in the city.

Looking at the letter in his hand, Luo Weidenov finally opened it and looked at it, "Surrender, the soldiers and the people are like the city of Kiev." If they do not surrender, they will slaughter the city of Vladimir". Of course, there is also Xiao Zhiyun's name behind. Lovednov smiled wryly, this letter came at a really good time, it was simply the last straw that broke the camel's back. In this case, is there a second option?

In just one sentence, there is an irreversible domineering spirit in the calm, Xiao Zhiyun just wants to tell Luo Weidenov clearly that the current Vladimir is in the bag, and he can fight as much as he wants. On the Suzdal River, it may be a difficult battle, but in Freikimir, the Dingguo army has an overwhelming advantage, and it has the confidence to speak. After a period of tossing and turning, after the Battle of the Suzdal River entered the entanglement, Dongfang Jin ordered to encircle on all sides and wipe out the resistance forces outside Vladimir. It can be said that the current surroundings of Vladimir are more stable than the city of Kiev, which has become a complete isolated city. The letter was sent into the city, Xiao Zhiyun was not busy arranging the siege of the city, if it was not a last resort, she did not want to storm Vladimir City, Luo Weidenov is a respectable opponent, with Luo Weidenov in charge, storming Vladimir will inevitably pay a heavy price. At present, Kipros has basically been taken, and Wofrey in the Caucasus has also presented a letter of surrender, in this case, there will be a heavy price to pay, and some of the gains outweigh the losses.

Early the next morning, the generals in the army came to the temporary wooden house, the weather at the end of July was not only hot, but also rainy, Dongfang Jin did not want Xiao Zhiyun to live in a tent, so he let people build this wooden house. The Dingguo army is strong near Vladimir City, Xiao Zhiyun arrived, everyone thought that they were going to launch a fierce attack on Vlekimir immediately, who would have thought that two days later, Xiao Zhiyun still looked unhurried, Gao Zhong and Shi Wengong were the most anxious, "Princess, the brothers are ready, why don't you give the order to attack." After our blockade during this period of time, the Slavs in the city have long been tortured and are better off dying, so if you don't attack at this time, what are you waiting for? ”

Yelusha was actually very anxious, after all, seeing Yang Zaixing in the limelight, he couldn't think about it. But he didn't recklessly be a bird, no matter how he said that he was also a Khitan disciple, and he was not in the same system as Gao Zhong and others. Gao Zhong These people are the descendants of His Royal Highness, especially Gao Zhong himself, who was the general of the palace back then, even if the princess was not happy, for the sake of His Royal Highness's face, Gao Zhong and others would not be too embarrassed. But he Yelusha is different, which makes Concubine Xiao unhappy, and he will definitely not be pleased. Gao Chong's tone was a little resentful and resentful, Xiao Zhiyun frowned a little unhappily, the hot porridge in her hand was also placed on the table, her eyes swept over the generals, and finally stopped at Gao Chong. Feeling the strong pressure, Gao Chong touched his neck with a little weakness, "General Gao, it is naturally a good thing that you are eager to fight, but if you can take Flekimir City without blood, why attack it?" The journey from Siberia to Kipoulos was a long one, and it would take at least four months for the new expeditionary force to arrive. For such a long time, we, less than 100,000 elites, have to take care of Kipros, and in two months it will be the autumn harvest season, and it is the time to employ people. ”

"This" Gao Pet has a reckless temperament, but he is not a fool, and he also knows how important soldiers are. Xiao Zhiyun's eyes were gloomy, Gao Zhong couldn't help but shudder, he didn't dare to refute, so he had to ask in a low voice, "The last general can't bear this responsibility, it's just the princess, Luo Weidenov is notoriously stinky temper, if you want to take Vladimir City without blood, is it possible?" ”

"No matter how hard your temper is, this time is different from the past, since this concubine has arranged it like this, she must have the certainty of convincing Luo Weidenov" Xiao Zhiyun glared at Gao Zhong with an unkind face, and slowly stood up, with a red scarf and soft armor, and a heroic appearance, "This concubine hopes that you can hear clearly, in the past few days, no one is allowed to approach the city wall without my order, and those who violate the order will not be spared." The outer earthen walls should be heightened, and at night more rockets will be installed to throw indiscriminately at the city. The surrounding defense area, but also to strictly guard, there must be no slack, the concubine will check the defense area from time to time, if anyone dares to neglect their duties, don't blame the concubine for not remembering the old feelings. ”

Everyone in the room felt an inexplicable pressure, Concubine Xiao's power is increasing day by day, she has always been able to do what she says, and everyone led by Gao Zhong hurriedly surrendered it. Xiao Zhiyun finally nodded with satisfaction, after coming to Vladimir, she first observed the various defense areas, and what made her angry was that the defense was lax in many places, and she didn't take the Slavs in Vladimir City seriously at all. The march and battle must be rigorous, the slightest slackness must not be slack, and a small negligence may lead to the loss of superiority and the capsizing of the ship in the gutter. After Gao Zhong and the others exited the wooden house, Yerusha touched the cold sweat on his forehead and sighed in a low voice, "What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd of the princess?" Could it be that old thing that Lovednov is really going to surrender? ”

"No matter what we do, now let's just defend our respective defense areas, this desire to storm the city, there is no need to think about it recently" Shi Wengong stroked his beard with pity, his face was full of disappointment, he was very eager for military merit. But what the princess said is not unreasonable, if she wants to control the entire Kipros, with the current number of troops, there is still a little less, so there is no loss. A few people got together and complained for a while, and then they went back to the defense area. Before the end of the day, the earthen walls outside the city, which had been dormant for some days, began to get busy again, and the young Slavic men began to work with shovels and baskets. The earthen wall is several feet tall and stretches into patches, like a dirt mountain, surrounding the city of Vladimir, the top of which is higher than the Vladimir wall, and now it is even higher, making the Slavic soldiers in the city full of resentment. During this time, although the Dingguo army did not launch a siege war, the Slavic soldiers in the city did not feel well, and were often greeted by catapults on the dirt mountain, not to mention the security situation in the city.

Kakiro was a native of Vladimir, and when the Orientals reached the Turov principality, he was pulled into a strong man and became an ordinary pikeman. Seeing the busy situation outside the city, the dirt mountains are piling higher and higher, which means that the opponent's projectile advantage is becoming more and more obvious, Cakiro is lying on the battlements and poking his head out, his face full of vegetables, "What's the chief, what are the Orientals going to do, is this going to torture us to death?" ”

The chief next to him had blurred eyes, dirty cheeks, leaning on the head of the city, and he looked wilted and weak, which really didn't look like a long material. Shi Chang is actually a man with strong blood, but that hearty pride has long been smoothed out by the ruthless reality, listening to Kakiro's question, he didn't even raise his head, "It must be to torture us, otherwise why raise the earthen wall." Passing by the street last night, I accidentally heard the conversation between the commanders, saying that the princess of the East was back, and now the people of the East are doing it again, eighty percent of them are going to make a big move, pity us people, the next days will not be better, and God will bless if you can leave a life. ”

During the whole day, although the Slavs were on full alert and on guard, the Dingguo army did nothing but raise the earthen wall. The two sides were peaceful, and at night, it was still peaceful, but as soon as the time came, suddenly the wind and clouds suddenly changed, and the trebuchets on the surrounding mountains all flew in unison, and countless rockets, stones, and oil were thrown into the city. For a time, the city of Vladimir was like a huge firework, and there were flames everywhere, and many Slavic soldiers and civilians were confused by this sudden change. In the past, although the Orientals often used the advantage of earthen walls to attack and harass, they have never been like today, with rockets raining down, accompanied by stones, and even wood projected in, and many places have become a sea of fire, and many houses have been smashed out of holes. The city was filled with fires and wails, and the Slavic people whose houses had been destroyed could only run into the streets, and the rain of arrows did not stop, and countless people ran around with their heads in their hands, and the whole city of Vladimir seemed to be the end of the world.

The city was in chaos, and Cakiro fled from the city, and now the defense area where he was stationed had turned into a sea of fire, and more than half of the entire squad was damaged, and even the amiable chief died under the stones. There was no trace of blood on Cakiro's face, he had lost the courage to fight, and in front of the Orientals, Vladimir was like a toy, and the people in the city were just other people's playthings. Obviously, Vladimir City can be taken, but the Easterners just don't attack, which is simply an inhuman ordeal. Panic spread throughout the city, and in the midst of this frustration, some of the city's nobles had begun to have other ideas. And how many people are willing to accompany the destruction of Vladimir City, it is not worth it at all.

In the city lord's mansion, the gray castle was shrouded in night, and Levednov stood on the top of the castle in a daze, watching the fire in the city with a blank face, and bursts of screams pierced his heart. At this moment, he found that all his insistences were pale in front of the means of the Orientals, this was the gap in strength, and there was no room for resistance. After this night, it is not known what will become of Vladimir, after this stormy blow, the blow to the soldiers and civilians in the city is catastrophic.
