Chapter 44: The End
Although the people of Cangtian are not strong, they are mainly because of the large number of people, most of the people in Canglan City have joined this ranks, but there are also innocents who have been involved in the rebellion, these innocents came to the north gate of Canglan City with those who fled and met the king's forces, and the part of the people of Cangtian who did not flee has been going forward to send their lives to the sword of the imperial army, although it cannot stop the pace of the imperial court's attack, but it does play a certain role in delaying.
When the imperial army's army pursued to the north gate of Canglan City, they saw another force and the people of the sky who had been suppressed......
"Who are you?" The general on a brown horse asked.
"Qiong Wujing, the city lord of Xuelu City, led the Bright Moon Guild to suppress the rebellion in Canglan City." Wang unhurriedly took out a gilt token and said.
The gilded token on the golden glittering word "Xuelu", the delicate carving, it is indeed the token of the city lord of Xuelu City.
"The Lord of Snow Castle? Why don't you guard the frozen soil over there and come to Canglan City to ask for trouble? The court didn't ask you to send troops. "The general is a little puzzled, isn't it too troublesome to find trouble in this Xuelu City? This is uninvited and positive, I am afraid that I want to come and be greedy for a piece of military merit.
"The rebellion in Canglan City is a major event in the north, as the people of the north and the lord of a city, shouldn't I do my best to help the north? Xuelu City is not far from Canglan City, I can do my best to do this, if we hadn't arrived, these rebels would have escaped, and it would be a trouble to search for it at that time, don't you want the rebellion in Canglan City to be quelled sooner, General? Wang Yiyi asked several questions in a row.
"This ......" The general thought about it, what the city lord of Xuelu City said seemed to be reasonable, and under such a righteous and awe-inspiring situation, he really couldn't say anything more.
"But the emperor only ordered me to do this alone, although you are kind, but this uninvited is really a bit out of line, when the time comes to return to the emperor, I will not report your military exploits to the emperor." The general said coldly.
"Yes, you don't have to report about me, this battle is all about the general, you are fighting alone." The king said indifferently.
"Oh, that's fine." There was no conflict of interest, and the general's attitude was suddenly much better.
"These rebels will all be handed over to you, General." The king said to the general.
"What to dispose of, the emperor has already issued an order, and all rebellious people will be killed, and they will be beheaded directly." The general waved his hand, and the soldiers of the court stepped forward with swords.
"Uh......h Woohoo......"
The people of the sky have been gagged, and they can't even beg for mercy.
……
The soldiers of the imperial court did things very neatly, and it only took less than ten minutes to clean up these people of the sky who had been suppressed by the king.
"City Lord Qiong, don't you mind me asking?" The general of the court said to the king.
"General, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"All the people of the sky who fled are here? There's no such thing as slipping through the net. The general said, pointing to the corpses in the place.
“…… General, what does this mean? The king asked rhetorically.
"Hehe, I'll just tell you this, the emperor asked me to slaughter the rebels in Canglan City, and there can be no survivors, and I don't want accidents, so Lord Qiong, are you sure that all the people of the sky are here?" The general's tone was strange.
"Sure." Wang stared into the general's eyes and said calmly.
The two looked at each other for a long time, but the king still looked indifferent, but the eyes of the court general changed a lot.
"Since General Joan has spoken like this, then I will also believe you." The imperial general withdrew his gaze.
"Now that everything has calmed down, I'll take my leave and go back to Snow Castle." Wang said.
"No." The general smiled politely at Wang.
……
At night, the imperial army was stationed in the camp.
"General, that Qiong Wujing is obviously deceiving you, there is not a single woman or child in the suppressed group of people in the sky, this is simply impossible." A soldier leaned over the general's ear and whispered.
"I know." The general said lightly.
"You know? Then why did you let that Qiong Wujing leave? The soldier asked, puzzled.
"He should have good intentions for protecting women and children, after all, I am also a flesh and blood person, since those women and children have already picked up a life, why should I be so cruel." The general said.
"The general is really a compassionate person, and the small one is really admired by the five-body throwing to the ground." The soldier immediately patted the general's ass.
"Hehe, these things, you and I just know, don't spread them everywhere." The general said with a smile.
"I know, I know, it's low-key, right?" The soldier said.
"Hehe, you know." The general said.
"If the general has nothing to order, the little one will retreat first." The soldier said.
"Well, let's go, go and rest early, tomorrow we have to speed up and return to the imperial city." The general commanded.
"Eh, understood."
The soldier withdrew from the camp, and the general crossed Erlang's legs, was he merciful? Of course not.
The city lord of Xuelu City shielded the remnants of the people of the sky, and when he went back to report to the emperor, the emperor sent someone to investigate, what Qiong Wujing would have to die in sooner or later, and then he, the whistleblower, would be able to get the emperor's appreciation from it, add officials to the knighthood, and walk to the pinnacle of life, everything would be logical.
The general took a short nap with a sweet dream, but suddenly there was a sound of "salsa" outside the tent, which was not very loud, but it seemed very abrupt in the quiet of the night, and this sudden sound woke up the general's sweet dream.
In the light of the fire, a figure was imprinted on the tent.
"Who?" The general shouted in displeasure.
The figure outside stopped outside the curtain door of the tent.
"General...... It's me...... I'm in charge of the sentry tonight. ”
Sentry? What did you do when you came to yourself so late to watch?
"It's so late, why don't you keep watch, what are you doing here?" The general got up and walked towards the curtain door of the tent.
"I ...... I found some things on my patrols, but they weren't particularly big, and now I'm ...... It's here to send you ...... Debrief. The figure outside was motionless.
Conditional? Isn't it a big deal? Or do you want to report now?
What the sentry said was really strange, perhaps because the general had just woken up and his mind was not very clear, so he really didn't have too many doubts, and directly opened the curtain door.
"Then you ......"
Sass.
Suddenly, the white blade entered his throat, and the general only felt a cool hard object pierce his neck, and the warm flow flowed out, the general couldn't shout, he desperately covered his neck, and took two steps back, but this was a completely unstoppable flow.
Looking up, there was a frightened sentry in front of him, and the black-robed figure with a blood-stained silver blade behind the sentry.
