Xiliang, Baoji County.

Although nearly half a month has passed since Hulu crossed the border, it is absolutely impossible for tens of thousands of cavalry to say that they did not harass any village along the way.

In fact, even if the Hulu marched in a hurry, the villages they encountered along the way were slaughtered if they could be slaughtered, and burned if they could, but there was no problem, they were purely robbing for the sake of robbing, and killing for the sake of killing.

When the Han people look at the Hulu, they can't wait to drink their blood and eat their flesh, and the Hulu look at the Han people, how can they not be like two-legged sheep?

Now gathered in Baoji County, there are several surrounding villages and towns, and the people who have been plundered by the Huns, the number is as many as two or three thousand.

They all have yellow faces and thin muscles, some of them have not eaten anything decent for five or six days, and some of them are injured, although they have been treated, they can smell a rancid smell from a long distance.

There are also some children, following the crowd in the same village, their eyes are terrified, and there is no adult to pull them, as for where the adults go, most of them are also more auspicious, and the children who can walk here are all kind-hearted people in the village, brought by the way.

Some of them can't be taken away, and they can only be lost halfway, and they are all very afraid, the news is blocked, and it is not clear whether the Hu people are gone or not.

Although the Hu people have also been to Longyou in the past, they have all warned in advance, if Yumen Pass is attacked, after the beacon fire is ignited, the news will soon be transmitted, and everyone can escape early.

After all, this is Baoji, not a frontier, and there are hundreds of miles of land in the frontier!

This time, the Hu people suddenly attacked, and the people scattered in the surrounding villages, without knowing it, were killed by surprise, and it was already a hellish scene on earth at this time.

There were only more than 30,000 people in this Baoji County, but there were two or three thousand more people at once, and the county order of Baoji County was also a headache.

How much grain can be stored in such a big place as Baoji County? These two or three thousand people opened their mouths to ask for food.

What's more, the king of Xiliang directly ordered before that he wanted all parts of Xiliang to transport all the surplus grain to Tianshui, which was known as resisting the invasion of Hulu, hoarding grain in advance, and so on.

In Baoji County, there is no surplus grain for a long time, and as for the military rations, he doesn't dare to move.

At this time, the suffering people gathered in the county town and surrounded the yamen of the official office, wailing.

The Baoji County Commander was also annoyed by the noise, ran to the door of the official office, and yelled at the suffering people at the door who were homeless and had nothing to eat:

"What a noise! What a noise! How many times have I said it, there is no extra food for you to eat in this place! It's all scattered, it's all scattered! ”

As soon as the county order was finished, the people below pleaded:

"Parents, Qingtian, just give some, our village hasn't eaten anything for five days."

"It's okay to give some rice porridge."

"Our homes are burned, our food is gone, and we really don't have anything to eat."

"Sunny day, save my father-in-law, please, save my father-in-law!"

There was a woman with a disheveled hair, dragging a man over, the man was stabbed in the arm, and there was no way to treat the wound, it was summer, and the flesh rotted quickly.

Coupled with the fact that he didn't eat much, the man's eyes were closed, and his brows were furrowed, which was no different from death.

Baoji County Ling was already upset, the people were robbing things, the king of Xiliang was going to take away the grain again, and he was here alone to face these victims, and now he saw such a terrifying scene, of course, he pushed it back, waved his hand and said:

"It's said that there is no food, you just squeezed into the yamen of the official office, and you don't have anything to eat, you'd better disperse now, otherwise when the official gets angry, you will all be treated as exiles!"

Although some of them shrank back in fear when they heard this, many more still squeezed forward, shouting:

"Qingtian, I'm really hungry!"

"Just give me something to eat, please!"

The Baoji County Commander raised his hand and shouted:

"Hit! Give me a stick to beat these people away! ”

The officials quickly raised their sticks and fought against the crowd gathered in front of them.

The people behind them didn't know where they were, but the chaos in front also made them panic, and some people were pushed down, trampled under the feet of everyone, no matter how they shouted, there was no response.

The people in the back wanted to squeeze forward, but the people in front were beaten and retreated, and the scene was chaotic.

A young man was beaten with a stick on the head, and he fell to the ground at that time, and there was no sound, and an old man with a white beard desperately rushed over, trying to block the young man with his body to prevent being trampled to death, and some fellow villagers shouted:

"Don't push! The government has killed people! ”

"The government has killed people!"

The sound of shouting is getting louder and louder, someone has been beaten with a few sticks and has red eyes, and has taken the stick of the official of the yamen, and is about to fight back, and some officials see that the situation is not good, and they will pull out the knife as soon as they brush it, and the Baoji County Commander also stepped back and shouted loudly:

"If you still dare to resist, you know that rebellion is a capital crime!"

After all, having a knife in hand is still a deterrent, and many people don't dare to squeak without being scared, but some people shout to rush into the yamen:

"I'm going to starve to death anyway! I'm going to die too! The grain must be in the yamen! ”

Some people also chimed in and shouted, and the crowd became restless again.

Seeing that it is going to cause a civil uprising, but this is only two or three thousand people, even if it is a civil uprising, it is impossible to take the people of Baoji County to rebel together, after all, they still have food to eat.

An official was about to leave the field with a knife, but he heard the sound of shouting and scolding around, and the sound of galloping horses.

This was followed by a chorus of shouts:

"The Son of Heaven Holy Purpose is this! Avoidance! ”

"The Son of Heaven Holy Purpose is this! Avoidance! ”

"The Son of Heaven Holy Purpose is this! Avoidance! ”

The Divine Decree of the Son of Heaven?!

The victims of the disaster, who were originally about to be in a civil uprising, heard that the Son of Heaven was coming, and they retreated to the left and right one by one in a panic, and a few who were particularly radical were overwhelmed by the officials, and the scene suddenly quieted down.

Then I saw a galloping horse rushing straight inside, and the knights were fully armed one by one, with armor and scabbards on their bodies, and even blood stains on their horses, apparently having just recently gone through battle.

And the leader is none other than Wu Zhi, who was ordered by Wu Zhi to take over Wu Zhi's Western Patrol Army in Xiliang, and Geng Zhong, the secretary of the military department.

Geng Zhong was dressed in bright light armor, holding the reins with one hand, grasping the holy decree with one hand, and rode into the crowd, and the surrounding guards quickly held Changge, fully armed to the left and right.

If Fang Cai only has official errands, and these victims still feel that they can fight, then now that such a well-equipped army has appeared, then they really have no chance of winning, and Fang Cai's blood rush now only feels cold on the scalp.

In ancient times, you could bring a sword, but you must not keep armor and crossbow arrows privately, and secretly possess armor and crossbow arrows, which is regarded as rebellion.

Because those who wear armor can fight five or six people who are not wearing armor, and it is so real.

Geng Zhong glanced around at the victims, then rode his horse, walked in front of the county commander, did not dismount, took the horsewhip and asked:

"Why don't you put food, why don't you heal the refugees."

"Ah, this ......"

The county magistrate hesitated slightly, and a horsewhip struck him in the face.

The county magistrate screamed miserably, covered half of his bloody face and sat down on his knees, crying:

"The grain and herbs have been requisitioned by the King of Xiliang! The city is gone! ”

"Are you so obedient? Hu Lu borrowed Xiliang, did the king of Xiliang let you let you go? ”

Geng Zhong's face was gloomy, and as soon as his words fell, the county commander hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed, and said:

"Xia Guan didn't let him go! How dare you let Hu Lu cross the border! ”

"Didn't let go? Hu Lu has arrived in Chang'an, Lao Tzu only led troops two days ago, and fought a battle with them in Lingzhou, you look at Lao Tzu's blood! ”

All kinds of whips were raised, and they struck the other side of the county order in the face with a snap.

The county commander was beaten on both sides of his face, and he fell to the ground and shouted:

"Who are you! I'm an official of the imperial court! You hit me like that! ”

Geng Zhong took a mouthful of saliva, spit on the body of the county commander, and scolded:

"Lao Tzu's military department is still Shangshu Geng Zhong! The emperor's holy purpose is to hand in hand, and allow me to save the prefectures of Xiliang, first cut and then play! It's a dog thief like you who eats a vegetarian meal! Come! Tie this dog thief to the entrance of the vegetable market and beat him to death! ”

"No!"

All the soldiers shouted in unison, and then the soldiers in bright armor went to the entrance of the vegetable market with the wailing county order.

The county magistrate was still shouting:

"Spare your life! Spare your life! I'm also on the orders of King Xiliang! It's not me! ”

Geng Zhong didn't even glance at it, and asked loudly at some officials and officials who were trembling in front of him:

"Where is the book?"

"I, I'm here!"

Someone walked out tremblingly, a tall and thin middle-aged man.

Geng Zhong pulled the reins and said loudly:

"Open the warehouse and put grain, how much to put as much, not enough to put directly from the government grain warehouse, not enough, come and tell me again! Gather all the doctors in the city to treat the wounded! The emperor has decreed that the people in all prefectures who have been affected by the disaster will not be relieved, but if a common man starves to death, you will all wait for death! All the soldiers listened to the order and followed me to the government battalion! Drive! ”

Geng Zhongyang spurred his horse, galloped away with a large group of cavalry, and many infantry behind him also ran to keep up, and he also had to master the government soldiers of Xiliang Prefectures, and before the emperor came up, he would assemble all the soldiers of Xiliang Prefectures that could be assembled, so that it was convenient to obey the dispatch.

As soon as Geng Zhong and the men left, the people who were desperate and planned to fight with the government cried with joy, and they all knelt on the ground one by one, bowed in the direction of Chang'an, and shouted:

"Long live the Son of Heaven! Long live the Son of Heaven! ”

"O Holy Son of Heaven! O Son of Heaven! ”

"Saved! We are saved! Long live the Emperor! ”

The shouts stretched for three miles......
