Chapter Ninety-Seven: Takeover
There was chaos in the royal city. Zhou Yu asked Zhan Suo to break the cowhide drum, but he didn't stop those slaves and maids who were wandering around. These people were holding thin and soft, and in their hands they were clutching silver treasures from various rooms, and the mountains were surging back and forth like a tsunami. What I see in my eyes is what else can be broken, stuffed, carried, and dragged, and where else does it come from.
"Do it!" The Metropolitan Governor couldn't bear it anymore and gave an order. There were hundreds of people he brought into the royal city, and there were also Pulan soldiers who immediately returned to the army after hearing the letter. These people used their swords to stop the thugs who were beating like chicken blood, let's call them thugs, and they were also a group of hard-working people.
The Metropolitan Governor didn't say a word, and rushed up angrily to bring over the two butlers, dragging the two guys on the left and the right all the way to the ground with the clinking, and the two rows of sergeants could not hide their disgust.
"Take advantage of the fire to rob and disturb the royal city. What is the crime? Jansso! The Governor let out a loud shout and threw them on the marble floor in the center of the main hall.
"Guilty should be punished!" Zhan Soo didn't hesitate.
"So what are you waiting for? Wait for me to do it myself? The Metropolitan Governor snorted coldly. Hearing this, the main hall, which was still whispering just now, suddenly fell silent. Zhan Suo was not ambiguous, and called the two city defense soldiers who came with him, took off the marching rope on his body, and threw it on the beam. No matter how those two long-eyed guys knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, they hanged them without changing their faces and heartbeats.
Seeing the two corpses hanging in the air and not moving, the violent atmosphere disappeared, and these minions immediately knelt neatly, needless to say, the row was horizontal and vertical, and all the stolen things were cleaned and placed in front of them. Sure enough, the method of making a decision on the spot and making an example of a hundred is effective.
"What about Lehar?" Since Zhou Yu is acting, he has to perform the domineering of the male lead. He roared domineeringly, omitting even the word city lord. A few maids glanced at the inner hall and gave him a signal. The Governor took the whip from his waist and walked murderously to the inner chamber.
Startled him as soon as he entered. Although he had heard Bolada describe the effects of the drug in detail, the scene that caught his eye still made him feel incredible. An uncle in his fifties hugged the stone pillar in the room, and hit his head at once, and blood flowed down from his broken forehead, dripping all over the ground, which was very terrifying. There were also some crazy people who looked like they were aristocrats, and they got together in twos and threes, some fighting each other, and some hugging each other and crying. Zhou Yu was stunned all of a sudden, thinking that he had walked into a mental hospital.
This drug is also so powerful that it can turn a group of well-behaved people into schizophrenia in a matter of days. Fortunately, Bolada is his own person, if he has such an opponent, Lao Tzu still dares to eat and drink Lazar!
"Is this Lehar?" Zhou Yu pointed to the person who hit the pillar and asked Zhan Suo, who was following behind him. The kid nodded, the envoy came to Pulan for the first time, and there were no photos in this era, so it was normal not to know the old city lord.
"Hey!" The Metropolitan Governor was two meters away from him and called out from behind. Each one answered, and still did his own thing. Joke, you go to a psychiatric hospital to call a patient, and he ignores you. Zhou Yu slapped his forehead, and his mother was also funny.
He stepped forward and patted Lehar on the shoulder, his blood-soaked face turned, his features twisted, his crying and laughing, his grinning mouth muttering that he didn't know what to say, and as soon as he turned around, he stretched out his hands and grabbed the head of the Duke.
"Don't move!" Zhou Yu was horrified, jumped to the back of a Harden, and fortunately jumped in time to avoid the old boy's milk dragon claw. As soon as Lehar saw that the other party had dodged, he pounced without hesitation, like a hungry tiger pounced. The Governor was not unprepared, he raised his whip and thrust it into Lehar's bloody mouth, his arms stretched out to resist it, and the old fellow clawed his hands in the air, but he was ruined because he couldn't reach his popularity.
"You don't want to live anymore, do you?" A personal slave soldier flew up and kicked heavily in the crotch of the old thief, but this guy was like a dead man who had been struck by evil magic, he didn't move, and his body was as hard as iron, so he could have bounced the soldier back. What even Borada didn't expect was that the drug could make a fool when it worked on people, but the side effect was that people didn't feel pain.
This is a group of dumb melons who heard the sound here, standing up one by one, with empty eyes flowing with a snort, and leaning over crookedly. On the contrary, the soldiers who entered the inner room trembled in their hearts, confirmed each other's eyes, and tightened the steel knives in their hands.
How, is this scene familiar or not? Irritating or not? Thriller or not? Unexpected or not? The Grand Governor held Lehar against one side and drew the Sword of Atonement from his back with the other. I thought to myself, isn't this Resident Evil?
"Lehar is guilty of rebellion, harming the envoy, and attempting to rebel, give it to me!" Zhou Yu offered a sentence, not only confirming the old city lord's sin, but also shouting to the hearts of all the soldiers. Look at the posture of these madmen, if you don't solve them, this is your own burial place.
For a while, swords, swords, and blood splashed in the inner room, throwing the face of the Metropolitan Governor. Although these guys didn't know the pain, and watched the knife chop down and actually used their hands to block it, the soldiers had an absolute advantage in numbers, and they had a sharp weapon in their hands. Three or five spears came out of the chest, severed heads gurgled and rolled out of the distance, and this repeated killing did not last two minutes, and the madmen were eliminated.
"Envoy, wash your face." Zhan Suo was a good guy, and ran to the back hall to find a wooden bucket and bring a bucket of water while others were cleaning up the dead bodies.
"Well, yes, yes." Zhou Yu soaked the linen cloth and wiped a few handfuls on his face, and handed it back to him.
"Zhanso, how could Lehar and these city lords fall into such a demonic spell?" Zhou Yu walked slowly with his hands behind his back, pretending to be puzzled and asked Zhan Suo. It's strange that he can ask the result, only he knows why.
"This, the little one really doesn't know. It's just that in the last few days, most of the people in the city have developed this hysteria, even the priests, and no one has seen the disease. ā
"Oh no, hurry up and gather your city defense army, and give me all the other fish that have slipped through the net, and be careful of harming the people." Zhou Yu pretended to be enlightened and anxiously ordered to go down.
Needless to say, the city defense army that saw this group of mentally ill and crazy people just now did not dare to slack off, since there was Shangfeng to take over Pulan City, then they still had to do their own work, after all, they were serving this bowl of rice. In addition, those who are soldiers can see those who are used to being officials, and those who have revenge and complain have grievances, and they rush into those big families in groups, and they will give those nobles and officers a happy time.
In just half a day, the city of Puran was cleaned up and changed for a new day. Good fellow, you still have to outwit it, and it will take no effort to destroy Lehar and his hostile forces, and most of the governors can hardly hide their joy.
"Oh, I said Zhan Suo, you have contributed to the removal of the traitors this time. In the future, I will report to Princess Philena that you have done a great job, waiting for the reward! Zhou Yu sat on the throne of the city lord of Lehar and took a sip of the tea handed over by Zhan Suo.
"Your Excellency Special Envoy Xie. For the allegiance of Her Royal Highness the princess and the envoy, the little liver and brain are smeared and died. Zhan Suo got down on one knee with a playful twist and put his right hand on his chest.
"The next task is entrusted to you, to ensure that Pulan City returns to normal operation and public order as soon as possible, and to ensure the stability of the city and the rapid return of industry, agriculture, and business to the right track. Did you know? ā
Zhan Suo knelt in front of him, not daring to answer. What does the envoy mean, he is just a small city defense chief. I'm not kidding if I'm taking these orders. No way?
"Did you hear that? General Soldier of Janso. ā
The words made Zhan Suo almost jump up, and as expected, the envoy was promoting himself. From the smallest commander to the chief of the city defense, it was even a five-level jump, and I never dreamed that happiness would come so suddenly.
The Metropolitan Governor is not a fool, looking at his skills, Zhan Suo is definitely a good hand in the army, and it is definitely not a bad breed to see that the spirit can still sit at the city gate and stick to his post in such a chaotic situation, if he is given a reason to analyze why Zhan Suo failed to get ahead, it must be excluded by others, and he has no relationship with Lehar.
The most important thing is to use your own people. If you have your own people, you will use it, and if you don't have it, you will promote it and use it. Above the officialdom, the grace of knowing is synonymous with one's own people, there is no reason to turn elbows outward, one is prosperous, one is lost, what is the so-called establishment of an offensive and defensive alliance? is to play with the position in his hand to guide the country.
"Alright, get up. Chief Zhan Suo, go and pick up the general soldier's mansion and pick a good day to move in. By the way, I read the yellow calendar when I went out today, and today it is advisable to make a bed, break ground, enter the house, and buy property, and the good guys are all together. I don't think it's better to hit the day than to hit the day, so you can move in today. As for the post of commander-in-chief, he can take up his new post. Zhou Yu waved his hand.
"Thank you, Your Excellency. Small, small ... Janso knelt there unable to utter a complete sentence, wiping away tears from his eyes. After seven or eight years of joining the army in his teens, he suffered a lot before he became a chief. Then it turned out that he did all the dirty work by himself, and he wanted to be a centurion with no prospect and little chance. Who knew that such an envoy suddenly popped up today, and he was directly promoted to the chief soldier, and the loach jumped into the dragon gate in the blink of an eye. This is a great nobleman, this is a benefactor who has to tie the grass ring!
"Damn, you kid was castrated, why are you crying like a?" Zhou Yu bent down and dragged him up.
"Flutter", Zhan Suo laughed, I didn't expect the envoy to be a rough person, I like it.
"Your Excellency, the grace of Bole will never be forgotten. From today onwards, all public and private matters are at your disposal. Jasso said categorically.
"Just recognize the princess, you don't have to recognize me." The Metropolitan Governor shook the silk handkerchief in his hand, meaning that they were all soldiers who worked for the princess, and there was no need to show loyalty from his heart, but the kid's mind was clear to him, and this trick was to firmly accept a little brother for himself. Yes, it also took into account the military power of the city of Puran.
"I didn't expect this Puran to be so vulnerable. The fact that the soldiers were captured by you without blood shows how vicious your plan is. Sitting on a wooden chair in the back garden of the royal city, looking at the rising full moon, Nika whispered.
She returned to the appearance of Zhou Yu when she first saw her, with a straw stick in her mouth, but the look on her face was a little less happy and a little more melancholy.
"Life is like this, always at a fork in the road and constantly choose. If I had chosen to take a step back and open the sky before, then maybe it would be my bones that are buried in the back mountain now. Zhou Yu pulled back and pushed the wooden chair she was sitting on, and the two ropes pulled out of it tightened and sent Nika off the ground. It's a swing.
"I'm discovering more and more that we're not people of the same world." A voice came from mid-air. When she fell, Zhou Yu pushed her back again, she didn't belong to the same world, and Zhou Yu knew this answer better than anyone.
"Does this matter? When it's time to leave, I won't stay for any reason. ā
"Promise me, don't kill again, okay?" Nika kicked her feet on the ground and pushed harder to stop the swing. people, but did not look back, only said lightly.
"This is already a way I can think of to exchange the least damage for my own life. What do you want from me? Do you want me to stick my neck over and have someone cut it off? Zhou Yu was obviously a little anxious. It's not that this girl doesn't know the current situation, would you rather follow me to death than live?
"IāI mean later..." Nika pursed her lips.
"I can't say yes. Miss, you don't like to hear what follows, but I must say it. First, there is no turning back when the bow is drawn. Even if I kneel in front of the Earth King and the Water King now, and break my head and ask for their forgiveness, I will not survive, and I will only die worse and sooner. ā
"Second, you see how happy and happy those slaves were when they were free, and no one could take away their freedom from anyone else. I want to help them build a dream country. Third, killing is not an end, but a means. I'm not a demon, and I don't have a penchant for slaughtering and killing people. I just want to keep myself alive first, and then let more people survive. Finally, Miss, please stop preaching to me, you and I are really not from the same world. ā
Nika didn't say anything more, letting the swing sway slightly in the night breeze. The warmth of the wall behind him disappeared, and the cold mixed with the scent of grass wafted in. That man, you walked silently, and you didn't even want to say goodbye?
Nika's few words reminded Zhou Yu that he must be thorough and not leave room for his opponent, otherwise he would be irresponsible for his own life. He thought, why could Tuwangzuka still be able to manipulate Windcatcher City and Kuzsia from thousands of mountains and rivers? Relying on gaba and firearms, gaba makes people lose their fighting spirit and indulge in illusion, and firearms make people prohibitive and fearful. With this article, one martial art, and two heavy hammers, you can't afford to stir up any storms with a vote of outcast guerrillas. So, if you want to pull out the nail that nails him in Kuzsia's heart, it is absolutely right to chase after the wind and sell the smoke.
And on the continent of Soracia, according to his observation for most of the past half a year, the wrist that Water Wang Li relied on should be the cult Rain God Sect except for the bell. He tied himself to the divine nature and told others that believing in the power of nature means believing in himself, and that if he disobeyed, he would be severely punished by God. This kind of reverence for the living as gods is a common trick of all cults, and there is nothing new.
If you want to bring down the Water King, you must first bring down the Rain God Cult.
