Chapter 824: Stepping Stones

The Wu Governor's Mansion burned not only the granaries of the official mansion, but also the wealthy families in the city, in order to prevent these grains from falling into Yan Ruyu's hands.

At this moment, these people were crying and begging, and Yan Ruyu frowned.

"When you can save yourself, you don't save yourself, and now you expect this seat to save you?" Yan Ruyu sneered, "Useless people, incompetent people, they deserve to die!" ”

As soon as Yan Ruyu said this, the old man and the others' faces changed.

Help yourself, how can they save themselves!?

"Yan Xiangjun, little old man, I beg you, if the city is attacked, I'm afraid my three sons won't be able to survive......"

"Yan Xiangjun...... Save us ......"

"Please retire, sir......"

“……”

Yan Ruyu has been cold-hearted and has not changed his attitude.

King Ji was going to send troops to Jiucheng to attack, but she came over first, if she retreated now, King Ji's soldiers would immediately take the opportunity to go to Jiucheng.

Attacking a city is not the same as being attacked.

Since King Ji is slow, don't blame her for cutting through the mess quickly.

Besides, King Ji's move is just messing with the hearts of her brother in Yama Village, and even wants to erase her reputation and fighting spirit in Yama Village!

If she doesn't retreat, the people will think she is vicious.

But if you retreat today, the consequences will be even more serious, and this method will continue in the future.

The real initiator will be there laughing and reaping the benefits, and will be happy to repeat the calculations!

"Tie up this old man to Lao Tzu." Yan Ruyu stared at this person coldly, "Incite people's hearts, bewitch the people, and put him on the city tower to show the public!" ”

The brothers immediately did so.

The old man had to shout again, but he was directly gagged with a cloth by his brothers.

"This seat is not an immortal, or it can save one person, ten people, or a hundred people, but none of the hundreds of thousands of people in your city have bones, so how can Lao Tzu save them? What is the purpose of the King of Ji's conscription, are you not clear in your hearts? At the beginning, I didn't separate and resisted, but now I want to let this seat retreat, it doesn't make sense! Yan Ruyu said again.

As soon as he said this, the people below trembled.

"Please, Master Yan, give me a way to live...... someone below said crying.

"You Jiangcheng forcibly conscripted, then Cangcheng is probably the same, and you and others have the same grievances in their hearts, not only you and other people in the city, how did you talk about your sons, brothers, and fathers who were sent to Cangcheng, and now how to pick them up! If you dare, Lao Tzu will be behind for you, protecting you, if you don't dare, then this seat will go to capture Cangcheng on a day ago, no one is allowed to talk nonsense, otherwise there will be no forgiveness! Yan Ruyu said coldly.

After that, let the brothers clear the streets.

Jiang Cheng is indeed not a good place, there are no natural barriers around, standing on the watchtower, you can see the surrounding movements at a glance.

Cangcheng is different.

Cangcheng is a mountain city, half of the city walls are mountains, the city is high, and the outside of the city is slightly steep, it is indeed not very easy to attack.

So it's no wonder that King Ji retreated to Cangcheng instead of this Jiang City.

Yan Ruyu stayed in the city for two nights.

On the third day, some respectable people in the city took the initiative to come, and the people knelt on the ground.

Yan Ruyu can hold it down, but they can't.

How much food can Cangcheng have? Who knows what kind of life their man or son will live in that city? What if the king and the prefect brought them over just to be a stepping stone?!

Therefore, now he can only turn to Yan Ruyu for help.

"I still hope that Yan Da will say clearly, how can I wait and wait to pick up people?" nbsp;
